I already rooted my phone using the root in 10 min video. Can I still run the unrevoked reflash tool and unrevoked forever?
Yes, just did this other day, worked great

You'll have to use a computer. Do you have a mac/linux? Kuz there is a forum where you can root your phone with those types of computers

Yeah bro you need a PC. Its just so easy.to use a PC and run the one click root with cwm. What version of z4root were you trying? I have the latest version on my PC that I could put on here if you want to try it?

Are you on di18 or are you on dk28? cuz if your on di18 z4root should work. If your on dk28 than yeah you need a pc with the one click root is so simple. Its just that you do 1 click and it does it thing really fast.

Yeah, Z4Root worked for me on stock Eclair. It just took a couple attempts for it to finally work. The first time it just sat there forever, so I pulled the battery, booted back up, tried again then it worked.

Just checking to make sure. You are using the latest version right? 1.3.0
I found this one click root app and permarooted my epic, try and see if it works for you
Note: Try at your own risk, may send you into bootloop.
People were using that for the evo shift before the perm root came out.

So this works? We have a method for rooting froyo without a pc? Sweet.
zRoot also works on the Epics in the same fashion.

Not for froyo on epic tho, or at least that didn't work for me.
I used superoneclick on a library PC. Worked like a charm.

Is there any trick to getting this to work? How long did it take on the Epic? i've stared at "rooting device, please wait" for 20 minutes now with no luck.

Hmm...no, it took less than 5 secs for me. Restart ur phone and try again. Maybe it will work...
Is this just a temporary kind of root, like w/o cwm and all?

You can permanently root and unroot, just need to flash cwm yourself.
Hello I have a problem with my girlfriends phone. Apparently it starts to heat up when she has only used it for only 15 to 20 minutes, she isn't multi tasking. I believe it is the root because it has never done this before it was rooted. I used the perm root method using visionary. Need help plz

You could always ruu back to stock then try rooting through the GUI method. Do you have a custom kernel loaded? Might just be running to fast if that's the case. Not all phones handle CPU speeds the same.

That did the trick thanks.

I rooted my MT4G with VISIOnary a while ago, and unrooted it about a week ago with the PD51MG file or something to that wording, because I wanted the gingerbread OTA. I then remembered why I rooted in the first place because the stock OS is glitchy and battery life was terrible. I tried running VISONary again but it just hangs on the rooting screen. Should I try using gfree to root it again or am I SOL?
Did you get the official gb update?
No, I'm still on 2.2.1
I had the same problem. I got it rooted again using VISIONary r14.

You should be able to use the same exact method you used to root it the first time if you are still 2.2.
I tried that, but VISIONary just hangs on the rooting please wait screen.
Click and hold the root option for about 5 sec then release it happen to me even tho it still didn perm root

I remember something similar happened to me, I got temp root but perm root didn't stick with that rooting screen problem too, try to use the pd15 thing again and start from scratch or just maybe factory reset it.
Did you make sure fastboot is off? And other settings are correct? it's been so long I don't remember.

Some users report that the OTA update (Android 2.3.3) is live right now.
Check your updates Settings>About phone>System updates and report issues.
It is, got it last night on the wife's D2.
Have they rooted it yet? I need to get titanium backup on there and restore her apps, she's freaking out!

Had to try it twice, first time didn't recognize it. Worked fine.
Working great for me. I SBF'd back to stock from the gingerbread leak, downloaded and installed the update over wifi in about 10 minutes. Rooted using the D3 method and flashed the latest CM7GB. Working like a boss.

Ran it several times, I see the SU binary in the system/bin directory and busybox, but barnacle and titanium are unable to obtain root.
Well I changed the script from xbin to bin and it seems to work now. Still unable to get Barnacle going, but closer.
That figures. Day after i leave big red and get my g2x, gb goes live for the d2 lol. niiiiice

Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Go to your app drawer and look for a skull and crossbones Superuser app. Click it and see if you can add wifi tether to the list. If that icon is not there, you're not rooted.
It's there but when I press to turn it on it says I'm not rooted

I would run one click root again, if that does not work, SBF back to stock and then re-flash GB OTA and root once more.
