Motorola Droid 3 rooted, made easier with 1-Click Easy Root
The Motorola Droid 3 is now the member of an elite club, called “The Rooted.” The two-month-old device has been liberated from Moto’s clutches to do as you will, ranging from cooking up a custom ROM to getting complete control on your device via Superuser access. An XDA Forum member, djrbliss, made headway towards achieving this initially, while Framework43 and psouza4 later packaged into a nice little Windows app to do it the easy way via using 1-Click Easy Root.
Setting your Droid 3 free is actually as easy as 1-2-3!
- Make sure you have Motorola drivers installed – LINK to x64 drivers(64-bit) LINK to x86 drivers(32-bit)
- Download and unzip ‘Droid 3 easy root script v7’ – LINK Droid 3 easy root script v7
- On your phone: Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging(check box)
- Plug phone into computer and select “Charge Only” mode
- Navigate to ‘Droid 3 easy root’ folder and run ‘Click to root your Droid 3.bat’
- Now just follow the instructions in the command window and unlock the phone after each reboot.
You now have a rooted Droid 3 thanks to the hard work of the following:
djrbliss – finding the exploit
framework43 – writing the one click
psouza4 – fixing and refining the one click
krazykrivda – gathering developers and making shit happen
