MOTO CLIQ has been rooted! (confirmed) read more>>

we have now had a few users out there who have rooted their Cliq, and apparently there are a few ways of going about the process. the link below will take you to theDudes post, and im sure you will find other individuals with other methods if you search through the thread.
good luck to all who wish to root, and happy holidays to all!
_________________________________________________________________
As i do not have a moto cliq in my possession i would not be able to tell you if this is true or not. but to any users out there that DO have access to a Cliq, and are willing to test this. (just in case someone out there hadnt seen it)
Motorola CLIQ Rooted for Full Android Access http://bit.ly/4Y9uLs
(dont hate me, i caught this on a livesearch of android, the info was RT'd by
{@TaimurAsad} if you would like to RT it yourself, please do.)
i would like to hear if this works out. seeing as how the last moto cliq forum was closed.

For italian people I've translated the guide ;-)
http://www.tuttoandroid.net/guide/guida-root-per-il-motorola-cliq-3192/

Its true. I have a Cliq and I rooted it last night. There are two methods to root. One is by Demoshadow and one is by TheDudesAndroid. Both seem to be based on the same idea. They came out about the same time. TheDudesAndroid is actually a little easier to do and the files can be downloaded faster. You posted TheDudes version here. Here is Demoshadows verison just to be fair. Demoshadow's Root

Wonderful news for CLIQ users, I hope milestone will get rooted soon

Yah, its true, and apparently it will work with the Dext as well. Its STILL very raw though. And could possibly brick your phone. May be best to wait a a few days for it to be cleaned up and tested more. Still some risk with it. No flashable update.zip as of yet. Also, they are working on porting Cyanogen's Rom to the cliq and a Nexus One rom. And someone got the NexusOne boot screen running on it.

awesome, so its official. now we just wait for the genius' in the android community to "fancify" it, as they always do. props to all who tried this, and thanks for giving us a 100% positive answer.

does this also mean someone can port motoblur to the g1/mytouch easier?

This root proccess is different from what we are used to. I actualy rooted mine last night. Spent some time following the M3 forum for awhile and it was no easy task. If we were all "genius'" here why weren't we able to do it? I'm not trying to bash but we need to work together on this and not make anyone feel inferior.

The root process is quite different - and I think that there is a lot to learn from the original thread http://modmymoto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=525915&page=35 starting ~page 35.
The method to flash a custom image was put together by Skrilax_CZ and was the crucial breakthrough for the device. TheDude got 'su' working.

You talking about me? I got it to show for....2 seconds,then bootlooped.
Well,once their is some roms ported/made for the CLIQ ,I think,with the right people,may pass the G1 in terms of roms/hacks.

Got root on my cliq
I followed The Dudes version and had no issues at all getting root. It only took me about 20 mins. I can't wait to see where this goes next. Love the cliq been waiting for root!!
So far everything works for me the same as before no FCs no apps not installing or running.

hey after you root the cliq does it still have motoblur?

Where is Cyan or Haykuro? Time to create some ROMs. I need 2.0 pls!

to my knowledge the ROM provided after rooting, is the same ROM. with SU enabled. am i correct in saying this?

Woot. I posted all necessary files and tutorial up on my site. Enjoy! Now all we need is APPS2SD and some speed mods and we'll be all set. This is the official TMO Rom so everything is the same, except you have root.

cant open rsd lite for some reason
I am running 32-bit windows xp and i downloaded rsd lite v4.5.7 .msi but when i try to run it on my pc it just opens a title bar that says "rsd lite" nothing else shows up. No option to install at all. A little help would be appreciated. Im kinda a noob at this. I work for tmobile and im so tired of the original os on my cliq, too many bugs. Thanks for the help.

kinda got an issue here, i rooted the cliq and everything worked fine following the dude's method, but the deal is that i did user metamorph ad basically screwed the phone, not sure if the theme fails or something, i'm currently unable to flash the phone with rdslite, i was trying to update or flash via update.zip or reseting to factory from the default recovery.img but no look :S..... and ye i know, no nandroid backup installed that's my bad

At the moment you can't get permanant root on 2.2. You can get a temporary root, but that wont let you edit anything on /system. If you can find someone with an xtc clip you can get your phone S-OFF which makes /system writeable.
Downgrading seems to be easy based off the 2 or 3 step by step guides I've seen on this forum so far.
Your questions are no different to any of the ones asked before by others, please use the search next time.

Downgrading will work, but, it will still be unrootable. As said above, the only way as of now to root 2.2 is by using an XTC Clip hardware box to get S-OFF, then, downgrade (this is a 'proper' downgrade) and root.

You can root your phone...
i have posted step by step instructions on my website on how to root any android phone running firmware 1.5 and above
since XDA wont allow me to post a link visit my website.. "ajknowsitall. webs. com"

Enough of this already, people. You need a XTC Clip for that, which costs about $220. This is the only way, for now.

Moderation needed!
Alot of topics about the same thing ...

anyone try his method?

I don't believe this. Because that process was not a newer one and was there long ago. If it worked, it must have became a lot popular by now. And "Universal Androot" is not a root application recommended for NAND locked devices like wildfire. If one has bypassed the nand security with xtc clip and made s-off, then this process might work. And once if u make s-off, there are many other rooting options available. But the point here is to root the wildfire with hboot 1.01 and S-ON dude.... Do not just stick with the thread title. Read the thread, he mentioned wildfire 2.2 clearly.
I doubt whether ur device is wildfire or not (if wildfire rooted or not). Check the below attached "Root and Me" application. In that, go to the root guides and check the compatible devices for "Universal Androot" process. There is no wildfire in that.
Just confirm any process after it worked with u guys.

Actually this thread was a bit fair one started on 21st march (and then reposted yesterday). There are a lot other threads recently started with the same topic. But still i agree with u.

U might not have asked this question if u know that his process is nothing but "Universal Androot".
Inspite of being aware, i just tried it for u. It won't work and says failed.
If anyone wants to recheck they might. Actually that process is little bit confusing. And im attaching a screen shot of that website below.
The process says to install "App installer" just to install an apk file. Cant we install an apk file from a file manager ? This is ok.
Then the process says just to enable usb debugging alone to transfer the apk file frm PC to wildfire. It not even says from ADB, so i expect it means to transfer through disk drive. Come on stop joking.

I found that this forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953
was very helpful I am running droid 2.2 Froyo on a Cherry Mobile Candy
I was able to root my phone semi permanently. So long as I don't clear the data for the Z4root program I maintain superuser status. So far I have had no problems and have been able to remove bloatware using AntTek App manager with ease.

thanks man

Come on guys, let's stop reviving threads from a year and 2 months ago...

[Q] EVO 4G Root

Are there any roots out there that are current and will work with the new updates that are on my phone. All the roots I have looked at were from mid-summer 2010.
I want to root my EVO, but don't want to end up with a brick.
Thanks!

Just rooted my wifes with all of the updates using the one-click unrevoked and it worked flawlessly.

Go to unrevoked.com and download the latest for the evo

i have read that this doesnt work with 2.2 hboot

ok, there are three working root methods that all work for the newest update.
1: a one click method known as unrevoked. www.unrevoked.com. it doesnt teach you anything, just roots. and if i were you, i'd try and learn something bcuz you only have one post. works best on mac, but also on pc.
2: a sorta-one-click method by xhausx. it is just a scripted version of #3. sorta teaches you. works most of the time. very good. xhausx is very responsive and helpful to problems. only for pc.
3: the method linked in my sig. meant for pc but can work for mac with some slight modifications. manual root method. teaches you everythign you need to know. if you get stuck, people (including me) will help you through.
hope this helps.
and i can tell u r new here w/ ur one post, but try searching next time. either using google or the built in search feature.

Anyone have unrevoked-forever?

Just wonder if anyone has the recovery flashable file unrevoked-forever?
Apparently the download is no longer available on their site.
Thanks.

Just had to do this myself after realizing I never achieved S-Off. Here's the file (the only working one I ever found):
mediafire .com/download/k4uo94243szbrj2/unrevoked-forever.zip
Was linked in this guide which was what I also followed this last time:

Hey thanks man, I just ended up following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1600904 and stopping after finishing at step 5.
Then I realized I still had the latest version of Unrevoked3 (v3.22) on my linux box. After using the HTC dev unlock just ran that tool. It installed an old version of CWM recovery and rooted the phone. Most importantly I got S-OFF through that. Because Unrevoked3 has the Unrevoked Forever patch built right into it.
But good to have the link. I will save that in case I need it in the future.

Hah nice, that's the same guide. Looks like the person who made the guide, scotty1223/scotty83 reposted it in these forums. Glad you got it to work! Hopefully those links will stay alive but I should archive the guide and them for my personal use if I ever find a need. Just remembered now that I installed the newest TWRP when following the guide after studying up on how the process all worked.

Root LG G4 model H-815P

now where should we star
fisrt off i want to say i didn't made the root for this model , the root of this device is already available on xda
this is the original post on how to root your lg g4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765/
now i'm just going to tell you what file and commands you must use in order to root the h-815p
now first get the International H815 10c Version pre rooted file and you also need the International H815 10c Version commands for that , again all the commands and files can be found in the original post , no all you have to do is just to follow the steps although it says its not compatible with the h-815p don't worry it will work i've tested it on a few h-815p models and so far there was no problems any way , PLEASE DO THAT AT YOUR OWN RISK just because it worked for me it may not work with you
and also a spacial thanks to all the developers on XDA for making it possible
if you have any questions let me know

Excellent tutorial,
But i was wondering what if i don´t want to flash my lg g4, instead i want to use another easy way like one click root. im a newbie rooting and don´t want to mess up my G4. Is there any tool to root it?
androidphoria dot com under desarrollo/root-lg-g4, explained it (in simple Spanish steps) but as a newbie rooting i need to know if this really works too. And as i mentioned i don´t want to mess my G4.
Thanks in advance xda-developers members!!!

I could be mistaken, but there are no one click root methods out. I have checked out the supplied link and seen the page for the one click root and it personally looks malicious to me. You could always sandbox the application and scan for viruses to verify it's authenticity.

Not sure rooting one click tool
Hi, ive already downloaded it and scan with A V G Avirus and noting happens, not threads founds. one click has a support list but there is not LG G4 in it, although it says that the list is not complete and rooting my phone maybe works, as a non harming tool i must test the rooting step, but still not sure. So, I´ve been looking with others like frama root, srs tools this last one has a support list but when you click on it, doesn't works. frama root (apk) never try, and there is another one, towel root. I googled little bit more and read that lot of users root s4, and s3 with it. These methods works in apk file. and except srs tools. iroot a Chinese version for pc and apk for cel, is anorther one. But still dont know if i try, i just barely bought the G4 4 days ago. And every blog i read, i saw to read xda-developers infos. maybe im wrong, but no body here mention rooting with one of those one click rooting tools. As newbie i cant post urls vid from you tube rooting with one of them. I dont want to try rooting my g4 if here in xda-developers, i dont get clearly what to do In very simple way for me, a newbie.
Again, thanks in advance

The methods posted here are pretty easy to follow.
The key is to read them completely, every single word, without skipping any.
Asking questions if you do not understand the instructions before you attempt to execute the steps, not after.
There is no one-click root method for the G4 right now.
Good luck in your choice.

Thanks a lot. I ll be patient and read carefully as you said,

The thing is that this process is not the easiest but I wanted to give some info to all the h_815P users that there is a root and that I its tested as well

Still looking a one click root for LG G4
As I said, I´ll be patient, but still looking for and found another one click method, it is Root Genius, but never try to root my g4. I know all the effort made by those here doing a Root for the LG G4, that really works and it is mention step by step in the original link post above described. when i said a root in a simple click is cuz its not familiar or easy to root for me as newbie. One click rooting for me is like Towelroot, unlock root, super one click, iroot(former vroot) kingoroot, framaroot. Again thanks in advance.

I am currently on V20d can I still use this method or should I downgrade first.
