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!!!!!

Will I need to log back into google account or will it keep all info?

[BBCrackman]

you should be able to keep all info. But worst case you will have to log back into your google account

Can you use wifi tether once you root the X?

[klehman1125]

man, wish i would have found this last week when i was rooting my droid... i downgraded to 2.0.1 or whatever the stock version is then rooted to froyo 2.2. this would have made things much easier. if you did this would you be able to then move from 2.1 to froyo 2.2. i know you wouldnt have the sp recovery image but would there be some other way to upgrade to froyo after doing this.

From all I have read, this does not work on 2.2... You have a high chance of getting a brick. :)

Install Astro manager from market, open astro and find the APK file on the sd card, open the dmupdater application and touch install, once complete wil be in your app draw

Thanks I'll probably do this Monday night.
Will it backup the stock os just in case she doesn't like it? I'm sure she will but this is her phone.LOL

[DroidnOK]

Can anyone out there confirm whether or not this DOES or DOES NOT work for the X? Since the author and creator has not yet verified it yet I'd like to see if anyone was successful using this method for the X. Thanks for all the hard work regardless.

Try the Ninja, I had same problem I re-authored, "click on bullit in right margin" was red with line thru it. Changed to green and application again "saw root."

[daveedem]

I'm trying this now on my EVO 4 with 2.1 and it keeps stopping at "waiting for rootshell. toggling wifi"... then it reboots the device... still not rooted ...


I'm obviously missing something... ideas?

[chuckboy1129]

Once installed would you be able to remove root by removing app

[jon1971]

This is not working. It keeps telling me a newer version is available and when I try to install it it then tells me it can not be found?????? Any help would be great!! I'm running 2.1 on a droid.
