Steven58's edit: This is no longer a valid thread or app for current Droid X users. The apps will only work with legacy versions of gingerbread and/or. Update: z4root is now available here and is a better option than visionary for us since it is geared toward all phones and not just the G2. No need for a computer anymore Visionary Its made by Paul OBrien of Modaco for the G2 and has a bunch of options for rerooting on boot and that type of thing but just ignore those options. It works fine on the DX. I tried it the other day when I had to sbf. Update:Visionary was pulled from the market but you can find it here 19/Nov r14: VISIONary + one click root - Android @ MoDaCo
Thank you very much, OMJ. This will be helpful to a great deal of folks, especially newbies, who want to experience root for the first time. Convenient for those of who want root sans PC or MAC. Thanks for posting this. +1
Woah, full double rooting, what does it mean... woooooaaaahhh. OMG. Hate to explain myself but if your out of the loop youtube full double rainbow.
Love the second post... totally off topic with the "I'm on a Boat" comment... whats funny is I'm wearing a shirt right now that says "I'm on a boat" from a bachelor party I went to... irony...
So... how long is this supposed to take? I clicked root now and got the yellow sign icon saying "rooting device, please wait..." The red circle was spinning in the corner while it was going, now it has stopped frozen and the sign is still there. It's been a few minutes now...
Still frozen 15 minutes later... edit: pulled the battery and phone is back to normal now...guess it got hung up during the process or something.
I'm so greatful for this app! Just before I saw this thread I checked my text messages. Well it seems I'd missed a text yesterday that said that everyone who got it and forwarded it to 10 of their friends would win the lottery, but if you ignored it your whole family would die!!! So I hurrried up, double rooted my phone, traveled back in time and sent that text out to 10 of my friends...... whew! Now my family is safe from getting slaughtered, and I'm sitting at home just waiting on my lottery ticket to come up a winner. Thanks OMJ!
Great app! I tried it myself after playing around with things. Now if they can just include an auto deodexer in the same click....we can be even that much more lazier *wink wink*
I did and it worked as far as I can tell but no way to be sure.... except SBFing back to stock and running it again. I'll let you know how it turns out GMB
I do kinda wish someone who's done it would answer me about how long it takes, does it take 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30, what? It either freezes on me or keeps working for over 15 minutes and I have to quit the app.
OK. Weird because mine goes over 15 minutes with nothing. edit: oh snap, 4th time I tried, it worked, took 10 minutes.
