Feeling lame for asking but 2.3.3 / 4.5.588 - root advice

---

Ive searched quite a bit, I know this phone is a bugger to root so I figure I would ask. I did have this droid x rooted nicely, running MIUI and some other nice ROMS... then one day things went horribly wrong. I did an update and from then on it wouldnt get past the bootloader unless I reverted to stock. I was a few days away from a Galaxy Nexus update so I didnt sweat it and have been using my Nexus ever since.

...But I keep seeing my DX, sitting there looking like a decent android device that just needs a little update to be turned into something useful. I've seen quite a few posts on Motorola tightening the strings on rooting so I was hoping for a little advice on getting root on my 2.3.3 / 4.5.588.

Thanks!

Check out the link below. Since you are on 4.5.588 I would suggest SBF to 4.5.602, then use D3 1 click root. The links are in the forum below. Just make sure you do not take any OTA's while on 602.

Once you are rooted then you can load any GB rom you want through CWM.

Questions should be asked in Q&A forums (or General when there is no Q&A), not Development forums.
