I don't have it anymore, i used it way back when, but then found the adb shell method to be just as efficient, so i jumped ship from this method

Hi all,

This one worked like a charm.

At first it showed "Root in progress" for minutes and never showed rooting completed.

But I cancelled and when I checked I got root access.

Phone: Pantech Pocket P9060

Tried many other rooting methods and none worked.

Thank you htcsfragg for this root technique.

I will def recommend it to others.

Cheers!!!:good:

[Atrix 4G General] zeropants:
What do you lose out on doing just the root without unlocking the boot loader?
[Atrix 4G General] fleurdelisxliv:
you shld unlock the bootloader and root its rly easy gl
[Atrix 4G General] zeropants:
I've been stuck with no OS detected in RSD three times and had to reload the stock rom again. This is my 4th Android phone and I've never had unlock and root not work on my first attempt. I don't recall what the unlocked bootloader is needed for. I'll probably give it another shot tonight. I was think of doing the 1-click to root and then go back and work through unlocking the bootloader.

Can I unlock my bootloader after using this to root?
[Atrix 4G General] leo880816:
it works on Mac also, look down below the website~

---------- Post added at 01:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 AM ----------

No, unlock boot loader is not the same as root~

root is getting the Superuser in the Android System.

boot loader is something like computer BIOS.

---------- Post added at 01:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 AM ----------

it works on Mac also, look down below the website at #3~

just finish root on my Atrix by Mac~

Just used this "oneclick" root and ...

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the noob panic here. I have the bell atrix, 2.3.4 and I used the one click root method. The phone seems to be rooted fine ( titanium backup installed and seems to be working fine ) but I have one concern. When I reboot the phone just as the lock screen shows up I get what i can only describe as an alarm sound. I dont remeber the atrix doing that before the root.

I was going to use the "unroot" option in the tool but wanted to check here first is this is normal and I am just worrying about nothing.

Thanks again!

Xalasten

Thanx a lot for this, many times tried other ways but to no avail. Thanx

Quick question: Does this method remove any data from Int SD or Ext SD?
[Atrix 4G General] sanriver12:

[Atrix 4G General] WTFsandwich:
Worked flawlessly on AT&T 2.3.4
[Atrix 4G General] Fountainhead931:
Well it seems to have worked well. Titanium and SU app are agreeing with it.

Haven't noticed anything awry.

2.3.4 also. Not rooted since first build of retail code.
[Atrix 4G General] craZhorse:
Am I rooted?

Ok, I went through the one click root process and at the end a message said I was rooted but the "su" did not work(or something like that) and it said to un-root and try again. When I hit the un-root key a warning came up and said this process could damage the phone in some way so I did not un-root...So am I rooted or not? How can I tell if I am indeed rooted, and if I am then should I do the un-root thing and then re-root again. Jesus I am old and confused:confused:
[Atrix 4G General] Fountainhead931:
CraZ, have you installed Superuser.apk before? If so uninstall then try again. I had SU installed but had no issue. I used the method above and didn't get any trouble. Did take forever to reboot those few times.

You can also install Titanium backup free version to check root.

I don't have advice beyond that.

You know you can install Superuser & Titanium Backup from the Market right? I have Titanium Backup installed also, that told me I had root when I started it. I had SU and Titanium backup already installed from a previous root long ago.

PS I'm old too....
[Atrix 4G General] craZhorse:
thanks

Thanks fountainhead...I installed TB and it told me I was rooted. I will install SU and hopefully everything will be "good to go". The phone acts ok, so I assume the root did not piss off anything. Thanks again

Help with updating previously rooted phone.

I'd like to eventually use this rooting method, but I have a couple questions first that I would really appreciate some help with. :)

I'm not really sure how the rooting works in the setting of an update from Motorola. I am currently on Froyo, but I believe the new update (4.5.91) is Gingerbread...?

Current Phone Specs:

Sys Version: 4.1.83

Android Version: 2.2.2

I rooted my phone in the past using GladiAtrix Enabler

I'm wondering how I should go about getting my phone

updated

,

then

re-rooting (if I even need to re-root.)

Is there anything I need to do before I update? Back-up anything to my pc?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I updated without unrooting using the message sent out from AT&T on my phone. Everything seems to be working fine, and it appears my root is still intact.

I <3 Gingerbread
[Atrix 4G General] pratik5705:
Yes, I was able to root and then un-root using this method. Unroot asked if I wanted to restore the /System/Apps folder, but warned that it wont work, so I choose no. No other issues as such. Takes some time to root/ unroot so be patient!

I have the Motorola Fire XT (XT530).

I tried this method (One step as well as Manually doing the steps) but have not been able to get the root.

It is running on Gingerbread 2.3.4

Also, is there a way to just try using the SD Card for expanding memory (Not the APP2SD app but a way like making ext4 on memory card and using it as system partition)

Not working on my Unlocked (as in not from at&T, though it seems to be jsut like it was from the store) atrix 4g. It never reboots my phone, and when i run it again after a reboot i manually make, it goes to the next step, and fails at step 3. Probably will just do a preinstall.

Atrix 2.3.4 rooted

It cycled 3 times (first time said it worked and second time said it didnt and 3rd time said it did) and then when said it worked after the 3rd try, I shut the root program window... and then restarted the atrix. I can run now Barnacle wifi tether.. which was my reason for wanting to root. So I guess its rooted! Thanks very much!!

Now.... I also would like to check out other ROMs (I think) (I am just figuring out what I am doing... obviously), if they say they root, will it conflict with what I have already done here?

Thanks again, this site is full of information.... which I read and then reread trying to understand what all I can do.... without breaking stuff, lol.

Post post edit... My phone is originally an AT&T Atrix but I have it on Telus in Canada.

I noticed that the hdmi cable connection isn't working after rooting, maybe I will try the WebtopMod and see how that goes :) Any pointers are sure welcomed ***fixed after manually rebooting while connected to the hdmi :D ...going to wait a day to try the webtopmod I think....
[Atrix 4G General] UTZorro:
Worked as promised rooting my stock gingerbread atrix.... however, has anyone else noticed the phone switching to Edge or losing it's data connection periodically and having to reconnect now that it's rooted? Or is it just my phone...or am i imagining this? I'm not sure why rooting would cause this. Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G General] achopraa:
Nopes. No luck so far with this or any other method.
[Atrix 4G General] jesgrew:
What I have noticed on my AT&T Atrix is when it is rooted, it will never boot into recovery mode. So I have to "Unroot" to perform those task.
[Atrix 4G General] Zebosf:
Should we have our bootloader unlocked before we use this method?

Sorry for the noob question, ive had bad experiances with these processes
[Atrix 4G General] sanriver12:
no need.........
[Atrix 4G General] ghost_og:
Install romracer's CWM and you shouldn't have any problems after that. Pay close attention to this step:

Thanks to mrinehart93 for pointing this out.

The system runs /system/etc/install-recovery.sh on boot with the stock rom. On boot it checks the recovery partition for some update and with CWM installed decides to reflash the stock recovery over it. Rename or delete the file and the CWM should stick.

If you have that file and do not rename or delete it, you will continue to have problems rebooting into recovery.
[Atrix 4G General] TRDregun:
I get a message that says

"ERROR: we have root, but couldn't push Superuser.apk. Not sure why!"

I have tried to install superuser myself, but to no avail. Titanium says I am not unrooted. When I try and run superuser it says I have an out of date binary. Any help?
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
have you tried using Superuser Update Fixer? can be found on the market.
[Atrix 4G General] TRDregun:
Yes I have, still not working. I have tried both while connected to cell network and to Wifi, it asks me to update, and I try that and then it directs me to an update zip file on androidsu.com
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
follow the instructions to root from this post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15023022&postcount=2

superuser is included in the preinstall.img and you can push it through adb.
[Atrix 4G General] TRDregun:
Also, I am on 2.3.4 build of Gingerblur. I will give it a shot and see where it goes.
[Atrix 4G General] slamming_sammy1:
I have a noob question also.

I already saw someone saying that unlocking the bootloader is not necessary. can someone tell me what unlocking the bootloader does?

also, I just don't care about this motoblur thing where everytime i remove my sim or put in another sim card, I have to sign in again. so my question is, by rooting, would this motoblur thing go away?

thanks in advance.

oh one more quick question if I may. if I root my Atrix using this guide, and also installing CWM; these 2 tasks are all I need to allow me to flash other roms?

thanks!

Hey all,

I recently switched and picked up the Motorola Atrix 4G that came loaded with 2.3.4. I used Pete's Tools to root my phone, but I still need to unlock the boot loader so I can start using custom ROM's etc... After going through many threads along with this one I am still confused on what I should use to go about unlocking the boot loader without bricking or doing any damage. Many seem to have problems with this tool listed in this thread, any help would be great!

Hi all, i'm new to Motorola (just came from HTC Wildfire running cm7).

You loose out on some ROMs, and other features. I am on the Motorola Photon, so I am just saying this based on what I know. An Atrix user should please chime in, I would like to know myself.
