Hello, Followed this excellent guide thx for posting it everything went very smooth no problems at all but now superuser and root checker crash. superuser crashes repeatedly, while root checker runs after 1st crash but tells me i am not roooted. installed the other root checker it ran fine but says no root. any suggestions ???

PS. when i went to install the drivers for 64 bit it said mine were newer so i left it alone

PSS. after updating both superuser and its binarys i tried root checker again this time it did not crash. I now have root thx

By the way, I squished-out the quoted first post for you in your reply above, I hope you don't mind .

Thanks for this guide. I decided to try and I seem to be stuck at the last step. I get the expected error message when entering the photon-torpedo.tar line, but the line after where you need to enter the install su.sh I get an error as well. It says I don't have sufficient permissions. When I installed root checker, it says I have root.

I had the same problem on the last part /data/tmp/install-su.sh ,but My superuser works and my titanium back up work and root checker says I have root, so I guess I will update here if I have any problems but as far as I know I have root =)

I am trying to root my phone but can't because of the ADB Package -gititbit.ch/AFAS, appears to be non-functional. is there another link i can be referred to? i would really like to root my phone.

Welcome to the AndroidForums, jonte12345!

Well, I'm not familiar with this specific rooting method, but if the adb package you need simply requires the adb utility, you can download the sdk-tools.zip file from the "Mini-SDK" section in the middle of this thread's first post:

How do i root my motorola electrify

 

[Billythekid3106]

Very carefully.... oh, and follow the STEP BY STEP guide!

Ok so i only get to the 2nd step. I type adb push photon-torpedo.tar /data/tmp.... i hit enter and it says 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. What have I done wrong?
