What OS are you running and where did you extract the files too I think its the default paths that are messing with it. Either way the instructions were out at 10AM those are the ones I followed direct from the researcher.

I just wanted to let everyone know in case you have the same issue as me. I was trying to use the .bat file in windows and it was telling me I was rooted but I really wasn't. Well I was rooted with gingerbreak when I got the OTA and didn't unroot for the update. The result was the Superuser apk still in my app drawer but unfunctional. What I had to do was edit the .bat file in section 3 of 3 from this:
adb remount
adb push busybox /system/xbin/busybox
adb push su /system/xbin/su
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
adb shell chmod 755 /system/xbin/busybox
adb shell chown system.system /data
To this:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/bin/su
adb shell rm /system/xbin/su
adb push busybox /system/xbin/busybox
adb push su /system/xbin/su
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
adb shell chmod 755 /system/xbin/busybox
adb shell chown system.system /data
That way the 2 folders from the old root are removed first.
Isn't It Possible To Do A Factory Reset And It Will Remove The Superuser App?
I think so. But doing it this way you wont lose your data for other programs.
Right, They Would Need To Use Something Like Titanium Backup Or MyBackup Root.
Which was my problem. Since I took the OTA I had no more root. So no back up. But I had the SU apk still. So all I could do was try to remove the folders via ADB before adding the new ones. Luckily it works.
That is another problem with this X2 there is way too much stored on the internal card that you have to move first before a wipe. Since it mounts sd and sd-ext. It makes it a pain in the ass sometimes to go find crap. My old dropbox data from my DX and stuff is tossed all over. Titanium now that I am rooted I got the backup folder moved to sd-ext. And I recommend anyone that does this and uses Titanium if your first time using it and you do not have backups on your SD card moves the Titanium backup folder to the sd-ext.
When I extract the file and click on the oneclick.exe to run the dialog box .....encountered a problem and needs to close message shows up (the send error report box). anyone encounter this problem? I downloaded, extracted and ran the oneclick.exe file and come up with this problem.
I did the one click method last night with no problems. I was gong to try the manual method but I did not have the right level of knowledge to use ADB. But, one thing I did do was update all the packages in the SDK. I don't know if that was the key or not. I confirmed root with the SuperUser apk and then with a download of Titanium Root.
Now for a quick question - would it be a good idea to install Tenfar's recovery? And make a nandroid backup before de-bloating?
So it sounds like you guys recommend SBFing to gingerbread. I wanted to avoid wiping my phone if possible, but I have everything backed up multiple ways just in case.
What is the difference between the 466 MB SBF and the 100 MB pre-rooted?
From what I understand, after I use the 466 SBF I can now root it. Is the correct?
This one-click root worked great for me. Thanks for making it so easy.
Sorry if this is a stupid question but I have X2. I did root using Gingerbreak. I did take the recent upgrade (maybe a mistake)! Does this "One Click Root" allow me to root my phone again without major issues? Depend on it heavily for work and can't afford to "kill" it.
With some of the instructions don't really understand if this works ok since I had it rooted before the upgrade. Thanks for your help!
