Rooting the Droid without rsd lite up to and including FRG83D

I started a new thread about this because its a very different method than the one use in this thread and I didnt want the methods to be confused. This method is safer imo as it does not require flashing sbf files.

This method was originally used to root the Droid2

Whats needed

ADB for instructions on setting up adb click here

Current Motorola Drivers

Rageagainstthecage

1.) Enable usb debugging if you dont already have it enabled

Go to settings on your phone

then applications

then development

check the box for usb debugging

2.) Extract rageagainstthecage.zip to c:\droidroot

3.) Connect your phone to the computer via usb cable

4.) on the computer open the command prompt. (In the start menu under accessories)

5.) cd to your adb tools directory. For most the command would look like this cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

6.) adb devices (This should list a device as a long number under list of devices. If it doesnt something is wrong.)

7.) adb push c:\droidroot\rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp

8.) adb shell

9.) cd /data/local/tmp

10.) chmod 0755 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin

11.) ./rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin (This can take a minutes just let it go until you are returned to your adb tools folder)

12.) adb devices

13.) adb shell (you should now see a # instead of a $)

14.) mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

15.) exit

16.) adb push c:\droidroot\Superuser.apk /system/app

17.) adb push c:\droidroot\su /system/bin

18.) adb push c:\droidroot\busybox /system/bin

19.) adb shell

20.) chmod 4755 /system/bin/su

21.) chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox

22.) mv /system/recovery-from-boot.p /system/recovery-from-boot.p.disabled Note if you are on a build earlier than froyo this step will fail. That is fine and expected.

23.) mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

24.) rm /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin

25.) exit

I would suggest rebooting your phone but its not required.
