One Click Root Version for Linux and Works for Mac, too!
This is still a work in progress! Gonna call it 3.3 (I went through 3 previous versions). It takes the 2.2.1 version and adds a user interface. Nice, easy, clean. In order to run this script, you need to chmod (change permission) of the .sh file, and then execute it.
Download the file here: http://kimete.com/droid/beta/dorootv3.sh
It is good for both Linux and Mac. All you have to do is execute it and the script will download all the appropriate files for you!
How to run this in Ubuntu/Linux
How-to video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvlB3e_UE8I
Note: General idea. You no longer need to update android-sdk, though.
1. Download the file.
2. Right-click the file, choose properties, choose the permission tab, and check executing file as program, close window
3. Double-click the file, choose Run in Terminal, and it'll start.
4. Choose 1 for install and root. Choose 2 for root process only. Only good if you've rooted using this method before, or you need to reroot your phone. Choose 3 to unroot. Choose 4 for credits/donation information. Choose 5 to exit. Choosing other numbers...
How-to for Mac
How-to video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7s8dtfYyHI
Note: General idea. You no longer need to download and install android-sdk anymore.
1. Download dorootv3.sh. Best to put it on your desktop.
2. Open a terminal. Go to the magnifying glass and type in terminal, and then select it.
3. Next, you need to change permissions. Type in the terminal chmod 0755 followed with a single space. Then drag the dorootv3.sh into terminal.
You should see something like this chmod 0755 /user/(file path)/dorootv3.sh. Press enter.
4. Now run your file by dragging the file into the terminal again and pressing enter!
5. Now choose and option...

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my anti-virus tell me that the files contain Trojan's?
The files are exploits and hack your phone. Don't worry, they are clean. However, to be safe, do not download from any other source than the ones linked in this post.
I've gotten countless hate mail and comments on Youtube users about rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin being detected as a trojan. It is an EXPLOIT. If you are scared that the files I hosted are going to give your computer a virus. Look else where, like Z4Root, though, my understanding is that Z4Root also uses rage.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853704
What is do these files/programs/scripts do?
These scripts will root your Droid 2 or Droid X phone with the least amount of user input as possible.
Why should we use this method and not another method?
All the methods are based off the same process/procedure. If you feel like doing MORE work, we can't stop you. The reason why we wrote all these scripts is to expedite the process, make the procedure easier, and to reduce human input which reduces the chance of human error.
Is there anything I need to know in order to successfully root my phone?
Yes. READ THE DIRECTIONS. Read the directions first. A lot of people make errors because they don't read the directions. I've also provided links to my video and another video which outlines the root process. Both are only a few minutes long.
Root failed! What do I do?
Run the script again! Most people succeed on the first or second try. Usually the rest by the third try.
Do I have to install Android SDK and update it?
It depends. The new Linux/Mac version does not require you to. The windows one, we are still working on.
Does this work on other phones?
I can't answer that. I know it works for Droid 2 and Droid X.
Wait a minute, this isn't really one-click! What's the deal?
Deal with it. Don't like it, try the 25+ step process.
When I open up the Superuser app, I get a blank screen.
That is NORMAL. Superuser lists the processes/applications that you've allowed superuser access to. If you haven't allowed anything, then it will be blank.
How do I test if I have root or not?
Try downloading an app like Wireless Tether (published by Google), and running it.
What USB connection mode do I set my phone to?
PC Mode or Charge Only. Choose the one that comes up with USB Debugging.
I am not very good with computers. Is this something I can do?
Oh yes! The key to success is following the directions.
How do I update Android SDK?
On Windows, you just need to double click the SDK Manager.exe. On Linux/Mac, you need to go into terminal, navigate to the tools folder in the android sdk folder, and run this command ./android update sdk. More information can be found in the SDK Readme text file. On Windows, double-click and run the SDK Manager.
I am getting stuck at the "daemon not found/daemon is starting" part. What do I do?
You need to fumble with the settings on your phone. You don't need to close the terminal. Change between PC Mode and Charge Only mode until it starts to continue. If that still doesn't work, also try disabling then enabling USB debugging for each mode.

Reporting an Error or a Problem
You can report errors right here in this thread. Make sure you give us as much information as possible. List what operating system you are on, what phone you have, at what part of the script you had errors, and anything else you may have tried or done. The more information you provide us, the better we understand situations. Posting up pics or logs of the terminal is extremely helpful.

Appreciate my work and/or help, feel free to send donations my way! Poor college student here who just got a speeding ticket! Doh!
This is outdated information and should be used as a reference only! All updated versions have moved to POST #1.
Hi all. Made it to the front page of XDA Developers.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/easy-rooting-method-for-droid-2/
I just want to make sure credit is given where due. First of all, the original procedure was produced Sebastian Krahmer. From there I wrote an indepth tutorial to root the Droid 2. I took a vague instruction set and help it grown into something that the average person could understand. Understanding the need to simplify the process, I decided to write scripts to further streamline the process. What started out as a 3 part script that involved 8 or 9 commands eventually became a two part script that involved 3 or 4 commands. I have no programming background, by the way. Having trouble getting the process down into one part, facelessuser volunteered to take my work, and put a bunch of neat things into it to get it to work as one thing with error checking! So, with that said, I'd like to thank everyone that had a part in the project, especially facelessuser for his dark magic arts that made the script run, matt4542 for constantly testing my various scripts, and everyone who directly or indirectly ran the scripts!
We are moving forward!
===
Hi all.
We (me), facelessuser, and a few others are working furiously to get an easy one step program out for you guys. In the mean-time, I have a pretty safe, and clean, and easy 2 step method for Windows, Mac, and Linux. I am still cleaning stuff up, but for the most part, it all runs well.
What you need:
Android-SDK for your operating system which can be found here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Motorola Drivers (if you are using Windows) which can be found here:
http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-...tware_and_Drivers/USB-and-PC-Charging-Drivers
And the files/scripts/programs to root for your OS:
Want to try the one step process, go down to post #2!

You need USB debugging icon showing in notifications. Try Charge Only if you can't get PC Mode to show USB debugging.
4. Double-click and run doroot1.bat
5. Follow the instructions. You will enter into the shell and be prompted with a $.
6. enter [./data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin] and let it run. Can take up to 15 minutes before it boots you out.
6a. To check if rageagainstthecage worked it's magic, enter the shell with adb shell. You should see a # sign. If you don't, you need to run rageagainstthecage again by entering the command from step six.
6b. If you see the #, exit the shell by typing exit.
7. After being booted from shell and back to DOS, enter or double click doroot2.bat
8. That's it, you are done.
Instruction for Linux and Mac:
GO DOWN TO POST #2 AND DOWNLOAD THE 1-STEP!
1. Extract and Update Android SDK package to your computer. The file comes in a .tar.gz file. Just open it up and drag and drop the android-sdk-linux folder to your home directory or desktop. Next, extract the files from the DORoot zip file to the tools folder of Android SDK. You should be moving 7 or 8 files into the tools folder.

Hey Thanks alot for writing this! I just tried it out and ran until completion.
A few things I found.
In the dos prompt, part2 the program asks user to input a few commands. Commands 2 and 3 should end in .sh. The program dosent mention this.
Thanks again
Typo in the 3rd step. You forgot to add '.sh'.

The " ./ " before doroot.sh tells linux to look in the current directory for the file to run. Make sure you in the tools directory of the sdk and that the script is there as well.

I am working on it. Hahaha. I don't have any programming background. So I am learning on the fly, but progress is being made.
Though, I have to say that the process is much much much easier than what it originally began as. So... moving in the right direction.
I'm not much of a programmer. I'm on Windows. Do I need to chmod the files, and if so, how would I do that?

Just follow the instructions. Launch the doroot1.bat file. The .bat file will launch you into ADB shell. chmod the doroot2.sh file, then run it. adb shell again. chmod the doroot3.sh file and run that. Hope that helps. I am on google talk if you need help.
I'm stuck on the second step. Attempting to contact you through Google Talk...
Thanks, by the way.

You are okay. Superuser lists the program you've allowed superuser access to. You haven't given any apps access, therefore blank!

Kenny, did you get this resolved? I am experiencing the same issue.
I'm getting kicked the ./doroot2.sh: not found as well. Anyone get past this point?
Sorry to sound pig ignorant about phones but I am ... my expertise is in PCs. So anyway I want to upgrade the Hero with CyanogenMod.
I backed up my contacts, apps, etc and rooted the phone with unrevoked ... lost everything in memory in the process, but that's OK -- the important stuff is backed up.
Rebooted into stock 21. ROM and skipped all the new user stuff ...
OK, here's where I'm lost ... to load the CyanogenMod ROM I apparently need something like Amon-RA, but to load Amon-RA image file I need to install the SDK pack.
So I downloaded the SDK pack, but it is nothing like what is described in all the install SDK posts I've been able to find. What I have found are instructions about running ASroot and other files that don't exist in the SDK version I have.
So like what do I do now, more important ... is there an A to B thread for doing this mod starting from a stock phone, going to unlocking, than loading SDK, than installing Amon-RA (or equivalent) and than installing CyanogenMOD.
I know all this info is out there, but it seems like most of the files I've found don't interface well in the sense that the ones that talk about doing step one aren't terribly relevant to ones that talk about step 2, etc.
Thanks
Yes. Its a sticky at the top of the page. Search "guides" lol...

All you need to do with the sdk is download it and extract it. I just put it in the root of my C: drive. Then open a cmd prompt in windows by going to Start > Run > cmd (press enter). Then in the command prompt you need to change directories to the sdk folder you extracted. For example, mine is in C:\android-sdk-windows. I just type "cd c:\android-sdk-windows" then "cd tools" to get into the directory where you can run the adb program. Make sure your phone is in debugging mode by going to settings > applications > development > check the USB Debugging box. Then you can hook the phone up to the usb and run the command "adb devices". If everything is working correctly then you should see a device serial number show up. If that doesn't work make sure you have the htc drivers installed by downloading htc sync from their website and installing it.
Once adb can see the phone then you should run the command "adb shell" and then when you get a $ prompt type su in order to elevate to root. Make sure you put a recovery image on the phones sd card using step 4 from this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694572 I think he has a link to download the recovery in that guide but just in case here is a direct download link for the recovery: http://www.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2.img Feel free to rename it to recovery.img so that the commands in the guide can be used as is.
Now you should be able to start at step nine from the guide in that thread (you should be in an adb shell when you start). It should be the adb command to flash a recovery image. Once you do that installing roms is as simple as putting them on your sd card and booting into recovery to select the flash option.
how do u root with z4root with out being able in install any 3rd party apps
!!
please help!!!!
Do alittle more research on the whole root process. 2.2 is a little weird but instructions are out there. I would not use any app to root Basically you need to find the right zip and install that with the button recovery.
Also don't expect an immediate response. Just because no one respond in 5 minutes does not mean they won't
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I had to use a side loading app to get z4root installed on my phone and then rooted it from there.

Sideload Wonder Machine from Android Central worked great for me.
http://forum.androidcentral.com/and...40770-ac-sideload-wonder-machine-windows.html
Watch this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFHLVF1aA0Q
If you can get an app to load and work on your machine to side load the apps you are ready to go. If not, i.e. Vista 64bit is an issue for DroidExplorer, you can use simple adb commands.
Like the video says... assuming you have the SDK and drivers installed. This is also assuming a computer running windows, if you are running Linux well... if you are running Linux you should be able to translate
1. Open a command prompt
2. change directories to the platform-tools directory where ever you installed the 3. SDK. i.e. C:\android-sdk\platform-tools
4. Turn usb debuging On via the phone Settings->Applications->Development and check Usb debuging
5. connect your phone to the PC with the usb cable
6. type adb devices
If you then see something like this you are ok to continue, if not you need to figure out what is wrong with either your SDK install or your driver install
List of devices attached
100049b90495 device
7. type adb install <location of your z4root.apk file> i.e. adb install c:\apks\z4root.apk
8. You will see adb copy the file and install to the phone. (If it fails start reading more in the dev section here. All the answers are there)
9. Disconnect your phone and open up z4Root on the phone and root it.
That should help. All of the steps above and A LOT more are in the dev section here, as posted above search and read and ye shall have all the fun you want.

Follow the rooting guide on youtube from mobiletechvideo(?), he has a bunch of videos, one is how to flash cognition based rom onto your phone (but the first step is rooting, so you could skip the rest if you didn't want to flash a rom).

It's always good to see new aspiring developers!
The answers you seek are here, here and here - as well as on the individual manufacturers websites of the specific devices and other android resources online.
What you want to do requires a level of technical knowledge and learning that will take time, patience and more then a little frustration. Wizardry, they used to call it.
There is no 5 minute solution, your best bet would be to install the android sdk and java jdk, start learning how to use them, and install and learn linux if you aren't already using it.
What you want is what most of us want, and what we are here learning to do - welcome to the journey, it's certainly an exciting one!
Why don't you copy your apk to your sd card then use appinstaller from googleplay to install them? You can manually take out your sd card, plug into your pc, copy then plug sd card back to your phone OR download "Myphoneexplorer client" from googleplay to your phone, also download it to your pc, now you can transfer files wirelessly from your computer to your phone.
I'm really having a hard time getting ADB drivers to work on Windows 7 so that I can connect my Android phone to my computer to run some ADB commands. I've tried three different packages; I guess the latest ADB MSI installer and another couple various packages. And I can't get any devices to show up when I type ADB devices. I need something simple if somebody can help treat me like a newbie although I have some experience with Linux and the command prompt but I really need something dead simple that will just install ADB on my computer so I can run a command on my phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

While plenty of people know adb better than I do, I can try to help you where we need to start at the beginning I think, which is to state that there is nothing to "install" on either Android or Windows, other than the one adb.exe executable on Windows.
However, you do need to enable a few options in Android settings.
With that, you can get Windows to talk to Android over adb as shown in my screenshots below, whether over USB or completely over Wi-Fi.
My first question to you to help you is to ask a basic question.
Q: Did you turn on USB debugging in Developer options?
A: ?
Yes I have us debugging on on my Android phone. I've installed USB drivers before on an older phone to allow me to use my Android phone for an internet connection on my PC and it was pretty simple and word flawlessly.
