    DOES IT AGAIN!!!! One click Root for Droid 1, Droid X, and EVO 4G...Easy and fast, right from your phone.


    PLEASE READ:
    -This is ONLY for Android 2.1
    -DO NOT flash SP Recovery to Droid X or EVO 4G


    Download the APK...





    Instructions from Droidforums:

    1. Download install the APK
    2. Click, "Root my Phone"
    3. Click "Allow" when app requests SuperUser access
    4. Allow SPRecovery to be flashed on your phone (Droid 1 only)


    Voila, your 2.1 Android handset is now rooted with a custom recovery (SPRecovery). Do not attempt this if you're running Android 2.2. We don't yet know the ramifications.

    So far we only tested DMUpdater 12 on the Droid 1, and it worked flawlessly. However it also supposedly works with the DROID X and HTC Evo 4G, but has not been confirmed on our end, so be wary. DO NOT FLASH SPRECOVERY ON ANYTHING BUT THE DROID 1. Also, note this version is still considered a beta, so it may not always work as intended. Let us know how it worked for you. With such an easy tool available, now is as good a time as any to root, dontcha think?

    THANK YOU DROIDMOD!!!!!

      the apk, once installed, points to a paid app on the marketplace...i'm not spending $20 to do something I've already done for free...i'll just use DROIDROOTKIT again.
