You didn't mention what device you own?
There are other 1-click methods for rooting, i.e SuperOneClick that you might want to try. Do your research, and if you post what phone it is then we can direct you to some guides.
I have a Droid 2 and have been waiting to root it. I DL'd Z4 when it was still on Market. So I guess I have an old version....if there is a new one that is.
I rooted with it before, but then unrooted when I started having issues with the phone. Now I am skeptical to root again until I find a good ROM for a D2.
So...should I root with this Z4Root 1.3.0
Are there any good ROM's for D2....preferably a GB ROM. I don't see the point in installing another FROYO ROM.
I didn't see a GB ROM scanning through the forum but THIS is the place where it'd be if there were one.
SuperOneClick is my preferred 1-click root method and often works where others fail. There's also more rooting info in the dev section link above too.
ok so i rooted my phone and updated it to gingerbread 2.3.5 and it took away root and i didnt really like it so i was going to go to a diffrent rom but i cant root with superoneclick and when i connect to my computer with usb debug on it doesnt say usb debug connected it just says usb connected sorry if in wrong topic im new
You don't root GB with SuperOneClick. You root it by flashing one of drhonk's custom GB kernels through Odin.
There was a thread about the same exact topic about a week ago. Please read around before posting threads. It helps keep this forum neater.

What bkoon said. As for the USB debugging, you have to go back into the settings and enable that.
Unplug the USB cable, go into the phone settings, select Applications, Development, and check USB debugging.
So, here's my story. I am trying to gain root access to my Galaxy S II Skyrocket. I see a lot of posts/replies of other people having success with SuperOneClick 2.2 using the zerg exploit but for some reason mine just hangs and doesn't go any further. To kind of backtrack, I was able to root my first Galaxy S II Skyrocket, but then I had charging issues so I exchanged it for a replacement. Now, the replacement will not root. And even with the first one I had a hard time gaining root. It took me several, several attempts to get it working. I don't understand what I'm missing. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Few things...
- Samsung Galaxy S II is currently on stock 2.3.5 with firmware UCKJ2
- USB debugging has been turned on
- Samsung USB drivers have been successfully installed on PC
- Using Windows XP
- Using SuperOneClick 2.2 with zerg exploit
- Tried uninstalling USB drivers and reinstalling
The status one the SuperOneClick is as follows...
Killing ADB server
Starting ADB server
Waiting for device...
That's it. Nothing else beyond that. And on the right hand side it indicates this...
It's keep stating that 'daemon not running... starting in now on port 5037' and it keeps looping and eventually does not move.
I've tried using different methods of rooting this such as Skyrocket-Easy-Root and Doom's EasyRoot 1.0 and the 'daemon not running... starting it now on port 5037' message occurs on those as well.
PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON because the regular Samsung Galaxy S II and other devices go through just fine. I know it can be done because obviously other users are successful with root and I was too with my first Skyrocket.
The only advice that "I" can give you is to post in the correct forum. You'll likely get a much quicker response than posting in the development section. I'm sure there's someone over there willing to help you. Good luck my friend.

Use this method ..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340526
You use odin to flash cwm recovery tar......then flash the super user zip in cwm.....
The files needed and instructions are in that thread....read them carefully, and follow them exactly ....its really very easy
Try to do factory wipe again. I was having problem rooting after Odin. I did a factory wipe and www tried it and it worked.

Do THIS. I'm not sure why you were even trying all that other stuff, but this is the proper root and CWM installation method.
What is the best way to access the root directory on the HTC One S from my PC? I try using Android Commander but it locks up.
Thanks!
There are clearly defined guides on rooting your One S, unlocking the bootloader, flashing recoveries, and more, all posted in the Development forum. Please try following one of them.
At this time, there is no super-quick 1-click tool for unlock and root.
However, there is the All-In-One Toolkit...

Sorry i forgot to mention, but i already did bootloader, recovery, etc.. using the instructions in sticky on the dev page.
i update to 1.82 today and the one click root method doesn't work, i tried in different ways several times and it doesn't work for me, i don't know why?
Don't make multiple threads in different forums. Now the mods moved the one you put in Development, so their are double identical thread here in Q&A.
