the steps in the link above did not work.... any one have any other suggestions?

Yo I got root access on my vortex with 2.2.1 used superoneclick with rageagainstthecage exploit. Clicked shell root first, then clicked root. Worked for me good luck!

That worked for my wife's but then I got one and it isn't working that way at all. Tried to downgrade, and i get a version error.

I actually put together a downgrading tutorial to fix some of the technicalities not mentioned in some of the other ones. Let me know if that helps anyone out.

(I can't post links yet, but I feel like this may help you guys)

I was able to get root on my wife's Vortex, which has the 2.2.1 OTA, by manually pushing psneuter to /data/local/tmp then pushing su,busybox,Superuser.apk to /system.
It's a manual method but works very well.

ROOT 2.2.2
Gingerbreak roots the Vortex 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 painlessly no downgrade necessary.

[Q] new user trying to root vortex 2.2.2

I have not seen any recent posts about this. Is it possible to root 2.2.2, and if so can someone please give me a link to download the correct application to do so. Thank you.
I heard you had to downgrade to 2.2 to root lg optimuses so I would assume for the vortex too. I have a lg optimus t, but it's the same family so Im guessing Z4Root works so use that.
GingerBreak 1.20 works like a charm on the LG Vortex running the latest 2.2.2 update.
You can get it here...

rooting Vortex 2.2.2
I've used SuperOneClick to root my Vortex. Make sure to use version 2.3.3.0, the prior version wouldn't root (though the previous one did).
If there's a problem connecting to the phone; try turning the USB Debugging off and then back on. It works for me.

[Q] How to Unroot Droid X on Gingerbread 2.3.3

So I found a link for the Gingerbread download when I searched "droid x gingerbread download" on google.
It had the 4.5.588 System Version.
I successfully downloaded the software on my sdcard but unfortunately I forgot to unroot my phone with z4root before installing the software.
Now I don't know what to do since the superuser remains as well as z4root but no rooted softwares work.
Please don't let me brick this!
How do I unroot this phone or fix it? Any help is appreciated.
Sounds like you just lost root when you updated. If you haven't tried this already, run Z4Root to re-root it again and it should be fine.
I tried to unroot and reroot using z4root several times it doesn't seem to work. I know this because the wifi tether is not working and says "Are you sure you are rooted?"
I mentioned that I installed gingerbread on the phone without unrooting the old software...
Gingerbread
my understanding is there is no app to root the gingerbread release. Please correct me if I am wrong, and advise if there is a way to root my droidx after I updated it to the latest Verizon release.
I'm with meeraj023 on this one. I have unrolled the phone, also using Z4 and still cannot update.
Tried while it has been rooted and while not rooted without he same results.
I have also read that you can't root the new GB. The only fix I have heard of is to SBF back to something rootable, but I could be wrong.

[Q] Root - how to?

While I patiently await CM7 for the Triumph, can anyone tell me how to get this thing rooted? I've owned a G1, Eris, and Optimus V. Each one had a different process. How can I do it on this one?

There is an app you install called GingerBreak. It is found in the same forum you posted this question in, just look for it, I believe it is right under this thread, actually. It is a simple 1-Click root method.
Hope I helped. If I did, could you help a brother out by clicking the thanks button? It's all I got
Here is a link to the aforementioned GingerBreak: http://www.4shared.com/file/kJ-skGa5/Gingerbread_15.html
After rooting, go to the market and install superuser.
Damn, I thought that was for a custom ROM. Thank you! I'll give proper thanks when I get to my Chromebook.
Well, that was quick. All rooted now. However, you linked something that only put on wallpapers. I had to go find 1.2 of GingerBreak.
Hello, i've tried Gingerbreak, Z4, Universal Androot and SuperOneClick Server is down.
Does anyone know of any other methods to root an android??
-edit-

Besides Gingerbreak 1.2 specifically? Which is right here...

There's an "easy root method" that involves renaming the sudo binary in your phone to su... If you do this, it's strongly recommended you install Superuser when you're done.

My ROM (hurrhurr) comes with root already available.

2012 root g2x using superoneclick

Hey I was wondering if I just download the superoneclick and run it will it just root my g2x fromhow it is now (stock everything) I am new here as well as to the rooting world.
It depends which version is on your phone. IF it is 2.2.2 then you can use Superoneclick, if its 2.3.3 then you have to use another method. One other method you may try is www.unlockroot.com
