I made it. I tested it. It works. You can get it from shortfuse.org or use the links below (if you're a registered XDA member).

Here's a one-click root with almost all phones and all android versions. (including the i9000, Droid, Nexus One, etc)

YOU CAN ROOT ALMOST ALL ANDROID PHONES! :)

The program requires Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0+ or Mono v1.2.6+

Operations systems with native support:

Windows Vista

Windows 7

Ubuntu Hardy (8.04 LTS)

Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04)

Ubuntu Karmic (9.10)

Ubuntu Lucid (10.04 LTS)

Ubuntu Maverick (10.10)

Debian Lenny (5.0)

Debian Squeeze (testing)

Debian Sid (unstable)

Debian Experimental

If you run Microsoft Windows XP, install .NET Framework v2.0 or above

If you run Mac or another Linux flavor, make sure you install Mono:

For more information about making it work in linux:

See here

You NEED to put your phone on USB Debugging mode

You NEED to install make sure the Android drivers for your phone are installed

Make sure you DO NOT mount your SD card.

If you still can't get something to run, try doing it in recovery mode.

I registered my website shortfuse.org so you can grab SuperOneClick from there now.

Great news. -1Day roots AT&T Motorola Atrix4G!!! YAY!

11/29/2010:

I'm sorry I haven't been updating lately!!! The problem is, I no longer have an Android phone and I can't play around or test anymore. I'm going to see if I can find one on craiglist or ebay.

11/10/2010:

I finally figured out how to root without looping. After rooting 13 phones, this is how I did it on the first try.

Turn USB Debugging OFF

Click Root

When it says: Waiting for Device, Turn USB Debugging ON

It'll now run RATC

When it says: Starting ADB Server...

Turn USB Debugging OFF

Turn USB Debugging ON

Turn USB Debugging OFF

All BEFORE it says "Waiting for device..." again

11/1/2010:

Hey guys! I'm sorry I haven't been able to respond to lots of posts. I've been really busy lately with work. I've been reading some posts and I've made some changes in v1.5.2

Let me know what bugs and issues you guys have.

10/17/2010:

Thanks to all that donated! I was worried for a bit but you guys proved me wrong. So, I fixed the NMA (non market apps) button. It should now install sqlite3 and busybox into a temporary folder if you don't have it. I added an unroot (by popular demand). I did some major code clean up, so you can expect faster releases from here on out. Next version will add sqlite3 and busybox to the /system partition included in root.

If you're having issues with "wait for device" or if RATC is looping, try this

Unplug your USB Cable

Go to Settings > Applications > Development

Uncheck USB Debugging

Plug in your USB Cable

Unplug your USB Cable

Check USB Debugging

Plug in your USB Cable

I need people with issues to post their device model and if they tried rooting in recovery mode. All posts ignoring the read me will be ignored. (meaning nma complaints and those NAND locked devices).

I'm getting flooded with replies, PMs and emails. Seriously, try reading a few posts back.

The program has been downloaded over 5000 times and only 2 people have have donated. I see donations as signs of gratitude. Even if it's 25 cents, please donate.

When I find the time (and will) I will work on the v1.5 release.

The rageagainstthecage looping is by design. Bad usb cables and ports can cause ratc to not run properly so I have it loop until it works. The "waiting for device" hang is for the same reason. There's nothing wrong with my application. It's usually your usb cable or port. This is not a cop-out answer. This is not an excuse as if I didn't know why it happens. This has been investigated and the problem is USB connectivity. It happens with my Captivate as well.

10/11/2010:

Enabling market apps isn't working unless you have busybox installed. I plan to fix this in the next version. The problem is, different devices have different locations for the com.provider.android.settings/settings.db and I was using the 'find' command to find your settings.db location. I didn't realize this was a busybox command not internal. That will be fixed.

I also added some information about root that I think people should read and classified different root levels.

By classifying root levels, I make it easier for the users to know if certain options will work or not. For example, enabling non-market apps will only require a Level 1 root, meaning it will work with the HTC Aria

Incompatibility list

With the absolutely beautiful ADB exploit I use, titled rageagainstthecage (ratc), absolute ALL devices can be rooted. This is because it exploit is ADB which all devices use. There is an issue though. Some devices have a NAND lock which does not allow you to write to the /system mount. Because of this, you can't copy su, sqlite or busybox to /system/bin. This creates some issues but there is a work around. For things that don't need access to /system (like enabling non-market apps) I can use the ratc exploit to make those changes. If your device cannot use su in /system/bin then you can simple select a checkbox (as of v1.5) that says to use ratc.

There are 3 levels of "root" we can define:

Level 1: Shell Root (with ratc rooting the adb shell but no /system write access)

Level 2: Temporary Root (/system/bin/su installed but lost on reboot)

Level 3: Full Root (/system/bin/su installed and sticks)

Some devices have a NAND lock. SuperOneClick will only give a Shell root until you remove this lock.

The following phones can use http://unrevoked.com to remove this lock:

Sprint EVO 4G (HTC Supersonic)

Droid Incredible (HTC Incredible)

HTC Desire GSM

HTC Desire CDMA (HTC BravoC)

HTC Aria

Droid Eris (HTC DesireC)

HTC Wildfire (HTC Buzz)

THe HTC Legend and My Touch 3G 32A also have a NAND lock and need more specific methods to unlock.

The T-Mobile (HTC) G2 has something different which may or may not be a hardware flaw. I have yet to really research the device, but while it may root, it won't be permanent since copying /su to /system/bin/su has problems. I believe this is a Level 2 root, but to be honest, I need to research more.

All other devices has a Level 3 root via SuperOneClick
