I just noticed that there seems to be some worried about rooting if you ran the verizon DL09 odin package. Don't worry. d2 root method for fascinate found on XDA works just fine. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=779238


Have not found a one click root that works yet though. If you find one, post it!

**UPDATE**!!!

Looks like there are some that are hit or miss... may have to run them a few times and wait upwards of 5-10 minutes for some.

if you don't want to wait use perm d2 method. happy rooting!

I actually used the one click root method that is found on android central after i upgraded to DL09. Worked for me. It was strange because i had to do it 3 times until it finally ran.

To get it to run it needed over 5 mins (which the once click says if it takes more than 5 mins try again) I had run it then lost track of what i was doing because i was at work. Then next thing i know it completed itself. So i can confirm it does work.

Looks like patience is the key here people... if you are familiar with adb, you could probably root it faster. i ran z4 and let it run quite a few times myself before i said screw it (i actually got a FC or 2 as well) and just ran the perm d2 method.

thanks for the heads up!

Possible reason why

I'm gonna look for the page I got my 1 click method from, but it worked for me on the first time. I rooted immediately after flashing the odin file. Then I screwed something up before I pout clockwork on so I reflashed since I lost everything (not really, thanks to Titanium Backup). Then I immediately flashed the clockwork after and then the 1 click failed twice. Reflashed the official dl09 then 1 click and, boom, rooted on the first try.

After doing a little searching, apparently the clockwork.tar flashes a DI01 kernal. So if people are flashing clockwork before rooting, this could be the culprit. I use this method found here

Hope this helps some people out.

I used the adb method from android central and I had to wait 5-10 minutes to be kicked back out to the windows command prompt after running rage.bin.

It's not just 1 click methods that sometimes take a long time to complete.

i used the 1 click method from dirkk. i had problems with my phone reading as a media driver(trying to sync to my pc) so that was causing the 1 click method to fail at first. once i disabled the media sync it was sucessful first try.
