i just got a new bionic, did the latest OTA update that was pushed to me....then tried 43v3r root, option 2 and this is the result every time. any ideas?

I'm having the exact same issue

Try option 1. It removes the updates and reverts it back to original system version, which should then root without any problem. After you continue through the process of 43V3R rooting your phone you can update to the latest version and maintain root. I also had to use option 1 after the OTA broke my original root.

I didn't get a new Bionic, but I did manage to brick my old one. When I used this to bring it back to life, I took the OTA before rooting and found it wouldn't root the OTA. This same method got me back on root!

i tried option 1. it says if you see the prompt that says "waiting for device" install said drivers...i installed said drivers, did a soft reset, but still hangs up on "waiting for device" with no luck.

i found my error.

its says to hol vol up, vol down, and pwr button to soft reset and go into ap fast boot mode.

i would hold the buttons, wait, then the screen would go black so i released the buttons and it would restart...

upon restarting i was curious how to tell if you were in ap fast boot mode.....well after some tinkering i realized you must keep holding all three buttons even after the screen goes blank and wait for the boot menu to actually get to the fast boot mode.


duuuuuh. wish that was explained earlier...pretty frustrating oversight there. but, now re-imaged to the 886 with root and i will now attempt .893 and see if root maintains as advertised.

thanks for the info
