I was successful rooting with this method. I have rooted two thunderbolts. I downloaded the instructions.pdf and just followed that.
Didn't work well
It didn't work well when I tried it. It doesn't take much more effort once you have ADB setup to do the manual method. Really it is quite easy to manually root.
Yeah I root using and... But my bro lives 200 miles away ... And he wants to root but his not so good with computers any other ways ... I look at adb for dummies.... And sets every thing up auto.... Will it work okay ... Or any other options..

I rooted my OG Droid and my Droid X the manual way, so I had a bit of knowledge before hand so I'm not sure how much help this will be, but I did use the three step method on my thunderbolt and it worked perfectly. All it does is exactly what you would do the manual way, except its automated. You still have to go to recovery and flash the software as normal, though, so you may need to walk him through it. The pdf really does help, though.

i'm working on that now. says its rooting but dont do nothing. rebooted a couple times and still no go
It only works if you have downgraded your ROM to the DHD rom first.
Ok will see what transpires with this thing. Hopefully things move along like the captivate forums.

So I just got a Thunderbolt a few days ago when my Droid died and have been thinking about rooting. The only thing is, is that i haven't done much with adb. I never had to use it with my droid. Anyone have a little guide on how to start? I can figure it out after that. I just dont really know how to connect it all with my phone.
Thanx

I had previous versions of android sdk on my phone and deleted the folder then used the sdk installer from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1009419&highlight=sdk There is a tutorial also and could not of been easier! All items pushed to phone would need to be extracted into the platform tools folder and this is also where you would run adb commands from.
Good luck

Check out the link in my sig - it's how I did it. This link has a couple of extra steps to it because it's the "older" version of how to root it, but that's OK because it really shows you what to do.
I watched the whole video first before trying anything.
good luck
Months ago I had so many problems rooting my MT4G. Recently, I decided to load the stock rom on my phone, just to root it all over again. I was able to do it in about 3 minutes! Here we go...
The following prerequisites can be found by searching/googling the forums.
1.) need VisionARY r14 .apk file
2.) need MyTouchRootingFiles (zip containing hboot_dhd.nb0, root.sh, and wpx.ko)
3.) download and install Android Terminal Emulator from Android Market
Ok, now that we got that out of the way, here are the instructions.
1.) Install VisionARY to your phone
2.) Unzip the MyTouchRootingFiles file to your computer, then copy the unzipped folder called ROOT to the root of your sdcard using usb cable
3.) While phone is NOT connected to computer, start VisionARY. Press the TEMP ROOT option to gain temporary root access. Exit VisionARY.
4.) Start Terminal Emulator and type the following, hitting enter after each line
SU
CD /SDCARD/ROOT
SH ROOT.SH​5.) After rebooting, start VisionARY again, and gain TEMP ROOT once again
6.) Wait a few minutes (this is very important, don't rush), then press ATTEMPT PERM ROOT, your phone will reboot
7.) After rebooting, start Terminal Emulator and simply type SU. If you get the "#", you have rooted your phone!
Now you can explore the Android world by installing custom roms created by the community. You may want to research how to backup your device before starting to flash roms.
Good luck!
This will only work if you have the good eMMC chip set W/ 2.2.x. And it's a pretty well known method of rooting phones. Heck i have this method in my signature from when i posted the same thing months ago.
You do know this method only works for froyo 2.2. Now a days mostly everyone is on gingerbread 2.3. Gingerbread bread updated device is more complex to root. It requires you to downgrade then root.
When I started rooting mt4g's this is the method I used and it took me about 3 to 5 minutes as well. This is also without using a pc. Everything done from the device. Its not as easy now though.

Yup, I'm aware. But anytime you get a MT4G from Tmo, it's still coming with 2.2... My instructions were basically for people that have had their Mt4g, but were afraid to root...

Not true. There are more threads than i care to count. That is coming with 2.3. That's the #1 reason i put together my "newcomers" thread. with these very same directions. Along with a link to check the eMMC, and install the ADB drivers.

Search the forums on how to check your eMMC chip. (I'd post the link, but i'm on my way to work & don't have it off hand. If you really can't find it, PM me & I'll find it.) Long story short, this method may not work, depending on the type of eMMC in your phone. You will
need to root via the gfree method, also available in the xda forums. Mackster248 has a great tutorial on YouTube.

Hey no problem. The android community is about knowledge-fully (if that's even a word) helping each other. And i know we all have to start somewhere.
Glad you got it working. Happy flashing!
It's a fast process if you know what your doing. Even if you don't it can still take only 10 minutes with downgrading

It says to uninstall VISIONary. VISIONary didnt work for me either.

Me too, I loved the Rezound. I still have three of them.
I flashed the root 66 ROM on my first boot with the G3 and it works awesome.
I was familiar with Odin as my Wife has a Droid Charge (used to be mine), but it's very easy to use & almost foolproof.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788443 There's a link in the thread to root in the first post. Just follow those instructions and you should be good to go.

Yea, that is another option although Odin is a lot easier.
Downloading a "massive Odin package" is no big deal (I think it took me 10 minutes IIRC) unless you don't own a PC.

Samsungs are really flash friendly and it's not too difficult to de-brick with Odin.. Had two HTC phones and the entire process of rooting, unlocking the bootloader, s-off and carrier unlock seemed like more work than I ever done with a Samsung.
Root it, it's okay, really!

Try this tool to root. It is automated so it is easy and you don't have to run a script or lose your data!
