what is ezSBF?

original [TOOL] ezSBF (not for 2.3.4)

if cd/usb flash drive is made correctly you will not have Droid_X_621-ezSBF-and-RootCD.iso or Droid2_D2G_DX_DX2-RootCD-2012.iso on cd

you will have a folder named 'Boot'

with two files and a folder in the boot folder

usb flash drive may have a few more files

Hit enter at the yellow "boot baby... boot" screen

You will see yellow dots for 1-3 minutes then the script will start

root only

ezSBF and root

basically read onscreen directions

don't use numbers on right side of your keyboard, just use the ones above qwerty

select flash sbf only if phone is not working correct or you do not have 621 on phone yet

follow onscreen directions

root

select root DX

follow onscreen directions

turn phone on, connect to pc with usb cable

check usb debugging (settings/apps/development)

select charge only usb mode in top status bar

press continue

adb will push

data/local.prop /data/preinstall_md5/magic.md5

program will prompt you to

manually reboot phone to bootloader (Hold volume up+down buttons and power button, or hold Vol.Down and Camera and wait for the screen to flash)

program will will be flash repacked sbf (less than 50mb)

Program will reboot phone twice,

very important

(reboot just replaces the local.prop, but the old local.prop is still in memory, till second reboot)

adb pushes su,superuser, and busybox

program will reboot to recovery,

manually wipe cache (should auto reboot to recovery, at android andy press both volume buttons, if it doesn't press home button and hold it in then press your power button, hold it in also till you see a triangle on the screen w/ android andy then press both volume buttons)

then select reboot

rooted

error info

when running the program you may see these errors

rm failed for /data/preinstall_md5/magic.md5 no such file or directory

no root.img.gz no such file or directory

rm failed for /data/preinstall_md5/magic.md5 read only file system

that is fine, it will still work

after flashing files in bootloader, phone reboots to bootloader, instead of normal android operating system..... now what?try disconnecting usb, pull battery,wait a few secs, replace battery, reboot, wait for reboot to complete, reconnect usb

don't want to reboot pc try

Using Oracle VM VirtualBox, and Magic MD5 root iso

If you planning on making nandroid backups or flashing roms
