NVM after not being a dumbass I got it figured out. lolz @ me making such a rookie mistake.
Yeah, after each flash you have to go into the Settings, Application, Developer Mode and enable USB Debugging. It's off by default on the new roms you flash.
The instructions forget to mention that step, probably assuming that you already know.

lol it wasn't that, and actually I tried that, and it still said my phone was offline.
but I didn't rename the RUU and put it on the flash card, i put the other pg05IMG file...lol...somehow missed that step.
Okay I have searched and searched through these forums through and through and there is no possible way the root a Droid 2 Global. I have tried all the ways listed here Pete's way the One Click and the Superone Click and I tried Z4root and that didn't work either! Is there a new way to do this???(When I had my HTC Eris that was unrootable too.) I think Im gonna give up and on my next upgrade I'll probably just get an iPhone 4s or something, because any phone I touch will before outdated and unrootable and unable to flash any of the cool custom roms and play emulators and crap. I'll just an iPhone 4s and talk to siri.
Thanks anyway for all the help guys and thanks developer for all your hard work!!!

Z4root will NOT work on stock 2.3.3. I've been using a Droid 3 one click root tool for linux and it's been working without fail. I've noticed this tool also works on the regular D2. Z4root will only work with the original stock.
EDIT: As far as cool roms, I'm using MIUI ICS. You like ICS but don't want to spend 700 bucks for an off contract phone? That's right. Your D2G runs it just fine lol.
MIUI isn't really ICS. It's just bits and pieces of the framework.

Diced, mixed, or blended, it's still the best rom I've used

What does the DROID3 One-Click Root script tell you? Any errors while you run it?

Nothing. Once it finds the phone and the rooting process begins it will say running expoit 1 of 3 (setting up symlink) and it will remain at the reboot screen forever!
my phone says:
Bootloader DO.11
Battery OK
OK to program
Transfer Mode:
USB
then nothing happens!
This time I got the "server not running" error!
Make sure your phone is set to PC mode with USB debugging on. I usually have to run the script twice. The first time it doesn't do anything. End it and start it again and it works for me every time.
Also, as far as MIUI ICS, it's technically android 2.3.7 but it's still ICS to me lol. It's enough like it to make me happy.

Have you tried pulling the battery without unplugging the phone from the PC and closing the script's window?
So that it boots normally and continues.

I'm gonna try that now! Standby...
Nope that didn't work! I didnt think was going to either!
I just tried the latest version of SuperOneClick and again with this screen on my phone:
my phone says:
Bootloader D0.11
Battery OK
OK to program
Transfer Mode:
USB
I'm starting to think somehow that this screen somehow not allowing me the further root my phone! With the SuperOneClick the program running and then immediately stopped responding!
Any ideas?
what is the latest version?
I thought you just need it in usb charge mode and have usb debugging on
edit: I don't see a SuperOneClick that works with GB

try petes with a different computer
HTML:
http://www.psouza4.com/Droid3/
1. Make sure you have Motorola drivers installed.
2. Download and unzip 'MotorolaOneClickRoot_psouza4'
3. On your phone: Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging(check box)
4. Plug phone into computer and select "Charge Only" mode
5. Navigate to 'MotorolaOneClickRoot_psouza4' folder and run 'MotorolaOneClickRoot.exe'
6. Now just follow the instructions in the command window and unlock the phone after each reboot.
For Windows XP users having trouble try this -> v7 .bat One Click
edit: are you trying to using a computer with usb 1.0?
if that doesn't work, maybe sbf
Hi,
i am definitely not an expert, in fact everything i know about android i learned from reading other people's threads but i managed to root my droid 2 global yesterday using superoneclick.
the first time i tried to run it the program froze up in the middle of the process and wouldn't do anything, including close. while i was trying to figure out how to fix i came across a post that said to start the program while usb debugging is off and then turn it on when it says waiting for device so i tried that and it actually worked. go figure.
i have no idea if it will work for you or not but i thought i would share in case you wanted to give it a try.

I'm not really sure how all the Android SDK stuff works. I've flashed new ROMs, kernels, modems, bootloaders, all that stuff on my phone, so I know the basics of how all that works. I've installed drivers for the phone, but no matter what I do, it won't show in the list of devices on ADB.
I'm currently running on the latest Miui (from Miui.us, not one of the ports).
Is there some trick to getting it to work, or what?

Did you turn on developer options and enable USB debugging on your phone? If you don't do that adb will never see your device.

I didn't have to enable it, as it's enabled by default in Miui. Doesn't make a difference.
U need to install the Nexus S Drivers to get ADB to work while u r running CM, MIUI.

I have also found that my captivate never showed up under "adb devices" but it would work fine when I used other commands.

My buddy destroyed his screen. Can't bypass lock screen. Any way to get data off phone via USB or ADB?
Yes. Head over to recovery and use:
adb pull /sdcard/ D:\Nexus5_backup

Forgot to add that he is not rooted nor does he have a custom recovery. That doesn't make a difference I'm assuming where ADB is concerned?

I don't know whether adb pull works on stock recovery as I haven't tried it on stock recovery. You will need to try that out.
However, if USB Debugging is enabled on that device, you can boot up the phone normally till the lockscreen and use adb pull. It will work as long as USB debugging is enabled from developer options.

No, he is just a 'regular' user. Not like us that constantly tinker / hack with our phones. He opened it up and used it. Never rooted or did anything else to it....

I see. Then most probably he didn't enable the debugging. In that case, you need to try adb pull in stock recovery or wait for anyone else to answer whether it works in stock or not.

Stock recovery doesn't allow adb access. That would be insecure

finally, i'm able to see my phone, but i got "rejected" i can't use the touch and can't see the screen
So, my question is:
in recovery i can use adb as i want, in fact i pulled the build.prop and edit by notepad, but when i turn on my phone i shoul accept the usb debug authorization. there's a way to edit the authorization file and manually insert my pc? thanks

edit: i've just saw your post, i already have a recovery wich supports adb, but i need to actually use the phone from the pc, i have to check if the phone, sim card, audio, bluetooth, etc.. are working, that's why i want to use my phone from my pc

You cant manually do it from what im aware, you might have to talk to a developer who knows more about your phone.
Otherwise, restart and try again.

You cant change any files on the phone. Its damn near impossible yo bypass. Unless you can find a Developer who knows the path. Sorry I couldnt help more.

Depends on your skill. You can for instance compile your own build of a ROM with those features unlocked.
