I tried the Z4 root method.

Worked wonders. I figure I'd share the information. I'm sure most of you know already. You cant get Z4 from the market anymore. Have to search Google. Worked wonders. Way easier than the adb shell. Sorry if this is a repost

1 click root apps are the devil.
that is all.

Really. I've never had a problem with androot or this Z4. I guess its the risk you take being lazy likebme lol

They are the devil because they allow n00bs to root with no knowledge on how to fix their phone should they break them.

Makes sense but everyone's gotta start somewhere. Just a reminder. Always do your research

The guy's inability to find the proper forum for this post (hint: there's no development content) bodes ill for his learning curve.

When rooting with this app does the bootloader get unlocked?

I really don't care for your snide remarks, I was just trying to be helpful. For people who have problems rooting their device via ADP, or one click root. So they can take advantage of all the hard work that our devs do for us.

But for future refrence, since this was a horrible/wrong place to post this information, where would you like me to put it? I respond better to people who are more polite.

The General Section is more appropirate. The Development section is reserved for people actively developing ROMs, Kernels, etc.

Honest mistake, no worries. People have just been getting up in arms lately over posts like this. I'm sure people just get tired of repeating the same thing again and again, so it's nothing personal.

Thread moved to General.

No this will not unlock the bootloader. This phone is known for having very tight security and the efuse chip that locks the bootloader. Of course this doesn't unlock the bootloader.;-P

Thank you

Hey everyone. I just wanted to say a HUGE THANKS to all of you. I made the switch from a jailbroken iPhone to an Atrix 4G on ATT and because of the knowledge base of the users, an organized forum and an excellent search function, I was able to unlock my bootloader, root my phone and install Gingerblur all wiithin an hour. KUDOS!

Welcome! The fun is only starting.

Yeah I'm awesome! Jk Congrats and welcome

Before the bootloader was unlockable, there were the people unhappy with their phones and made threads in a toddler temper tantrum announcing they were getting a different phone and why. It always made me chuckle, that they think anyone cares. Don't see much of those threads anymore.

I have 3 Atrix. I knew that it was a matter of time until it showed its real potential. Now it finally is. it has has a bad rap but it should be more appreciated now.

Okay, I think I have it where I want it.
Gingerbread, CHERRY 3.14 and check out my screenshots here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16156825#post16156825

I'd like to say thanks too. I've rooted, unlocked the bootloader, manually installed GB and the radio update and installed CWM recovery. And everything just worked. The roms and programs worked great, and any lingering issues I had were resolved by a quick search of the forums. You guys have made the process of updating my phone a breeze. Thanks so much!

Granted the Iphone stuff was super easy.... just wait for an update, then wait for someone to develop a jailbreak for it...I just jailbroke my sons friends ipod by going to jailbreakme.com and that was it. Now as far as themes and overall customization, this phone is badarse.

First things to do with new zoom.

Hello guys and gals. I'm excited to get my zoom in the mail tomorrow from verizon. So I'm reading up on these forums to understand where everyone is at. I'm asking if any one would would he willing to give a quick check list of first things I should do when I get it. Then I can do some research based on your feed back and get it all set up. Thanks.

Download flash player from the market , then set your browser to on demand in the settings. Get feedly for your google reader or pulse, but I prefer feedly as it's much snapier. Download plume for tablet and friend caster for tablets.

LOL, typo. I really asked thinking I would be rooting it right away like I did with my Droid X. I probly will though. Just can't leave thing alone. So really I'm just looking at different methods that are out there. One click would be nice.

One click is to much steps(irony right?)....
Do the catch recovery before reboot method which is really simple and easy. You get root and recovery at the same time.

Play with your xoom for a while then this. I would install the tiamat rom but I don't want to wipe my xoom.

I've decided to skip roms and tiamat or whatever. Looking at threads some are WiFi version only. Then some are different firmware version. I just want stock Verizon with whatever current version its at instructions. It's just to big of a mess for me to spend time digging through literally hundreds of posts researching on what should be closed threads restarted with fresh instructions. Not 4 month old threads. I'll just root adb, use setcpu, and wait for 3.2 uupdate. Then ill join in since ill know where other people are starting from.
It really is a mess. With my Droid x it was simple. A few ways to gain root and all the Roms nicely laid out ripe for the picking. Instruction clearly labled if you have firmware xxx do this, xxy do this. No wonder people are afraid to root. I am, now.

Ok I can't quit that easy. Looked at xoomforums. I think my whole problem was forum layout. Viewing this forum on their premium app jumbled everything together. Seeing everything laid out rom, kernels, ect, much easier. I'll go with launchpad 1.3 then try tiamat. At least I don't feel lost. As long I'm not browsing through their app.

Uh... I think it would be a very nice incentive to get a forum going by finding an exploit to get root so development can start.

I totally agree, we will get all that info tomorrow by lunch time. Sorry if I sounded mean, but way too many people here are so impatient. I guess that will all be over in about 12-15 hours.

Hoping I can pick mine up today and then I will do what I can to help you guys out!
Not seeing it on http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ yet, unless we can use the HTC One selection, but I will be doing system/boot/data-preload dumps as soon as I can, although I am sure someone will beat me to it.

Yeah, I need to get data backed up before that, just to make sure nothing is wiped out of data as before.
Biggest concern is getting a custom recovery on so I can install superuser.

Hope root isnt far off for everyone. Getting my at&t model tomorrow.

Boo-urns.... I was in a Verizon store at five after one, made a stink with the manager about loosing my unlimited data and left in a huff threatening to leave. I knew I had no chance but it was fun anyways. I'm really close to leaving big red anyways. Rather have control back to use the network I want when I want to with a dev edition.
