I recently got my Droid X a few weeks ago and I happen to get curious about rooting because of an app I was checking out had said "for rooted devices only" I did update my phone with the 2.2 version froyo. By the way what is froyo by the way, is that just lingo for the version? Back to my orginal question can my device be rooted with out issue after the 2.2 update, please be gentle and by the way this forum is AWESOME Im a nerd in the making but Im cool with that. :O)
Froyo is a release version of Android. At first it was just supposed to represent the 2.2 release of android, but I think it now spans up to 2.6.something for the latest release on the R2D2 Droid 2.
Yes, your device can be rooted without issue after the 2.2 update. Here is a link for an one-click solution made by Sil3ntKi11
http://alldroid.org/Defa...40&g=posts&t=553I followed a step by step process that I don't remember the link for. But if you are nervous about rooting, A) make sure this is something you want to do, as with root access, you can mess up your phone. B) if you really want to do it, I recommend the one click process, as all the manual steps are done for you.
Hope this helps!
