i'm tired of that other thread. i did some reading on rooting last night.

1. you have to be plugged into a pc?

2. the page for easy root says this

The official 2.2 update will remove your root and block tools like Easy Root. Once the official 2.2 OTA hits we will see what our options are.

Yes, and no you can't use easy root since that was for 2.1 but since 2.2. got released yesterday the only way you can do it for now is the way I linked to. Just dl the stuff, set your phone to USB debugging on and set it to PC mode run the file and you are done. Like I said before the only thing I am using it for is 3g hotspot for when I am on the road and the kids want to play on there laptops.

sweet. pretty sure i'm picking it up today. probably try and find time to do it in the next week.

If it does not work the 1st time, reset the phone and cpu. And don't worry about bricking the phone. It won't this way.

Root all we want we can't keep up.

Motorola and Verizon just might be working on a surprise release this Holiday season that would completely raise the bar within the smart phone industry. This new Android superphone will be the first of it's kind to launch with Android 2.5 Gingerbread and include Nvidia's dual-core (1GHz each) Tegra 2 platform.

Quote:

Some of you may remember that Motorola Co-CEO Sanjay Jha boasted about delivering a 2 GHz phone in time for Christmas, but we recently discovered that was a slip of the tongue and he was actually referring to the two cores (clocked at 1 GHz each) found inside the Tegra 2 platform.

This phone, now know as the Droid T2 around the web is expected to launch with all the high end features already found on the Droid X with the addition of 1080p video recording, a front-facing camera, and with enough CPU power to make even your computer jealous.

Take this information has 100% pure speculation and rumor at this point. For Motorola to release a new product along these lines would certainly make the same bold statement the Droid 1 made during it's release nearly one year ago

If the first three droids were a warning shot (or better) to the iPhone, this one would be a full broadside barrage. I need a raise...

[SmootsDaddy89]

I would be upset if I had Verizon. woohoo go att I can pretend it doesn't exist now!
