Also.... In the other thread you posted that you have the xt (912) ..... Here you are asking about the xt(908) ...... Do you have both devices, or are you mistaken one way or the other on which device you actually have...... I only ask because if you are confused and flash the wrong firmware on the wrong device, you can end up rendering it completely useless.......

Ok so i tried that link to root the xt908. The program said it was successful. It dowloaded SuperSu. I also downloaded a terminal client to check if it is rooted. IT came up with "$" so i put in the command "su" and it came up with "#"...now as far as i have researched that means it is rooted. IS that correct?
