Easy Root, the Newest 1-Touch DROID Rooting App | Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog

Is this legit though?

 

[Turdbogls]

i dont see why not....Droid life is a pretty legit site. i would trust it and do it if i wasn't waiting patiently for the official FROYO

 

[Ddifulio31]

Looks pretty sound. But I'm still a newbie. The comments seem like its a good app. Not sure.

 

[UnexplainedBacon]

Could any of the pro users here take a look and let us noobs know if this seems like the real deal? One touch rooting seems too easy to be true...

 

[Ddifulio31]

I agree reading about rooting seems a little more complex than a couple of buttons. But I could be wromg.

Just took a chance and did it...worked great! Wifi tether and everything work great. Have not flashed a rom yet.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. There's one touch rooting for other phones, though I cannot remember which ones I've seen it for exactly. I figure I'll wait for the OTA since I've ben waiting thus far and it's mere hours away now.

I'm sure that if it works for 2.1, it'll work for 2.2 once a root is found.

Is there any way to get the app for free

 

[deltadog03]

I just did it and it worked very easily....Havn't hooked it up to the PC yet, still at work, but not bad for a buck! I had an iphone before, and this was as easy as JB that.

If I root with this app, will I be able to return back to stock if I wanted to? Thanks for any replies

They tell you to download a ROM Manager...I did that and am currently backing up ALL of my current rom and data stuff now....etc..

 

[IxI Dan IxI]

I will be looking for more results here....

did you have to add your google account again?
did you loose everything on your phone (not sd card) ?
did you have to re-install all your apps again?

No
NO
NO

Honestly...all things seem to be normal...I just did a backup of current data and all that jazz with the current rom. I then went back into that program, after it rebooted itself (normal), and looked under managed back-ups and I just seen the one I did for my retail 2.1....

 

[IxI Dan IxI]

I see.... i think.

you dl the app
click root me
it goes through the reboot/rooting process
you dl rom manager
you back up everything
then you select a rom of your choice........

 

[deltadog03]

Thats what I am gathering bud!

Just took the plunge and bought it. It take 2 sec to root my phone and work pretty good so far. Now I need to figure out how to install a custom froyo next.

 

[Lock-N-Load]

hmm.. I just bought it to have it - only $1 - now have to work up the balls to press the button and commit...

get the free version of rom manager. Also the the paid one. You can then flash away. I just loaded jrummys Lithium and it is by far the best rom I have ran so far (been rooted since 2.0.1) you may also want to read up on how to use rom manager it takes some getting used to. But is real easy once you get a feel for it.

That's not allowed here on the forums...and no. Just buy it if you'r scared to do the real thing.

Why would someone need both? Or was this a typo.

I am really on the fence on this right now.

The paid app requires that the free version be installed first. As to why I Dunno lol .... just the way it is.
