need help for friend with a droid cliq - Droid X General

Trying to find the sbf file and the a one click root for a droid cliq on tmobile. Having touble finding the files. Seem like I need to get rsdlite 4.6 but cant find the sbf files for a droid cliq. Also heard of a couple of root programs but not sure they will work on his phone. I believe it is a droid cliq running 2.1 update 1. Not sure, just trying to help him root it. But I don't want to brick his phone.
Thanks

I don't know any specifics about the Cliq; however, Pete's website says that his Pete's Motorola Root Tools works on the Cliq.
A thread for Pete's Motorola Root Tools can be found here in the Droid X General forum.

[Q] NEED HELP. DROID X Bootstrapper. Sending a phone back to VERIZON. Desperate

First i'm going to say sorry as i know this isn't the first and probably won't be the last thread posted about removing droid X bootstrapper. With that said thank you in advance for helping me.
Before i go on i'll preface by saying i am no expert but with proper instruction i can learn very easily. I rooted my DX using z4root and used droid x bootstrapper to create a nandroid and flashed the Fission Rom. I am new to the DX, came from the DINC, and the only reason i rooted was because my phone was rebooting randomly and i thought maybe that would fix it but it didn't so i was able to get a refurb DX which is working better already and so now i have to send my old back to Verizon. Problem is i unrooted it and restored to defaults and Bootstrapper, Terminal Emulator, and SU were all still there. so i researched the boards since this community has made me excited to be an android user, and tried both methods of Root explorer and Terminal emulator, and even flashed maderstcock340.zip but again upon restoring to defaults, all 3 apps showed up again.
I need help, i didn't want to ask for help because i dont want to bother anyone but i need the help. Even a link to something else that i should try would be a great help.
I mean even if anyone is willing to skype with me and help me out that way i'll buy you a 6 pack.
EDIT: Will using the .340 system only sbf work to remove it? and if not will using TBH's 2.3.32 fix it??!?!
Have you tried unrooting with z4, you can uninstall the other two in the market. If z4 fails to unroot, you might have to flash a sbf. Its easy find " how to's" in the forums.

Well i thought that is what maderstcoks340.zip was supposed to be. A flashable sbf? can you direct me to a link where i can download the .340 SBF and the right version of RSD Lite
I'm currently at work and on my phone...so you'll have to find the links yourself...
But flashing the .340 won't get you completely back to stock. You'll need to find a link to the .320 sbf...I think there is one on droid-life.com
Apply the 320 and then the 340.
340 sbfs are easy to find...but you'll obviously need that too.

[Q] Noob trying to root. I need help!!

I'm currently running the System Version 4.5.602 on my DX. Never rooted before!!
My question is, where can I go to find out how to root my phone? Any links for the version I'm running? Or will I have to downgrade my version first? If so, where can I find out how to do that.
Much Thanks!!
a little help.
Look under pete's motorola root tools thread on this forum. everything u need is in there.....hope it helps.
Droidmodderx is a good one too

Google searching does wonders. Unless its something specific to this forum that I'm looking for, I usually google all my problems. Just add "droid x" to the end of your search so you know its for your phone.
As said before, Pete's Motorola tools is a good one.
On a side note...if you ever mess something up on your phone and need to SBF, MAKE SURE you have the .602 sbf file. I used to have 602 on my droidX and i ran an SBF for another version and none of my backup/restores prior to the SBF would work.
z4root also works.
You can also download it from the market (or from a google search)
edit... z4root may not work with a fresh .602 sbf (previously I sbf'ed to the previous release.. rooted then updated and that kept root)
Looks like pete's motorolla root tools is the best option right now

SBF w/ newest .605 SBF, then root w/ the D3 1 click root method. Done.
Titanium backup
Droid x bootstrapper

Should at least have those.
Also there are custom roms too. Find one you like follow directions. You'll be fine

Milestone X - C-Spire - ClockworkMod & rooted 2.3.5?

Which implementation for "Flash ClockworkModRecovery" should I use with rooted GB 2.3.5, Milestone X, C-Spire (Cellular South)?
Droid X or Droid 2?
Thanks.
pretty sure that it is droid 2 droid x
Nothing (none of the options w/ uninstall and wiping of the Clockwork Folder) worked, then I got "DROID X Bootstrapper" from a MegaDownload or something similar
and
made my first backup. Great!
Now to tackle Custom ROMS and pitfalls. I still need to efficiently get to SBF my phone back to FROYO for security.
Definitely DROID X Bootstrapper from market......worth the money impo..
on gingerbread with the x... droid 2 bootstrap actually works better... so when ya buy one to support the dev... get droid 2 bootstrap... so you can keep usb debugging enabled...
Good to know Nemo.... Wait a minute, hell, I'm using debugging right now with the first 1.....???? What's up with that?

check the link in my signature below. there is a link to Doomlord's zergrush root.
I tried the zergrush root but my phone would not down load. It kept saying that the down load was unsuccessful or that it failed. My phone was rooted before but when I did the update it messed up. Help. Im new to all this and still trying to learn.
That isn't an application you use on your phone...
And .zips won't download with the stock browser, is your problem.
Download it to your PC and run it with your phone plugged in.

Rooting D2G

My moms phone got updated awhile back to the OTA GB 2.3, and so I wanna root it for here and do some stuff to make it run better for here, but I have no idea how to root it. I know how to root the D2G if its running Froyo, but I haven't used the D2G in forever. I only had one for a few months before switching to a droid x, and now I am rocking the LG Revolution. Which all those were easy to root, but I just cant seem to figure out how to root the D2G now that it has GB 2.3 on it.

[HELP] How do root? \: .621?

Hi I'm new to the Droid X community, and I saw somewhere that .621 was not rootable but then I saw somewhere else someone found a loophole?
I don't know how updated/accurate those statements are, therefore I am asking a question to you guys.
How do I root this phone? Is there the Superoneclick? Or is there a long root process or what?
I have a droid x 4.5.621.MB810.Verizon.en.US.
Thank you so much for helping.
EDIT: http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/d...41454-guide-how-root-your-phone-zergrush.html
I found this site, but I'm not sure if it's reliable because it is a year old....
two options
root with magic md5
magic md5 root for d2, d2g, dx, & dx2
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-Oj1a1wNZKhZMPUqU_6KzzYzQJ2RKzvvumTx-41f3h4/edit
or use ezSBF milestone 604
and root with zergrush

i used this root method today as a last resort (i dont like using methods that take different software to work) and i lost my 3g. im fairly seasoned at root but this is the first time ive come across this problem. im on baseband BP_C_01.09.15P and ive reset my phone, called the *228 and battery pulled a few times and still no results. can anyone help?
well don't remember anyone losing 3g before, and no reason magic md5 root would cause
this
I would try flashing 621 SBF
(i dont like using methods that take different software to work

not sure which root methods, you would have used that, doesn't use software
if you don't like it, flash milestone 604 with sbf_flash, and root with zergrush
just don't flash 604 with rsd lite, it will change the radio
Is there video on how to do this method, I have a Droid x and i want it rooted, but Im no good on written instructions, I do better with video.
I have same version...did u get it rooted?
