Just for fun ......

 

I kept root with the OTA on the soak.  Once motoshare2 came, I immediately botched my root and rooted with it.   Does that make me a Crack Flasher?

I actually waited for root exploit, I did a full JB fxz which was fun because I didn't know about the two lines of XML you had to delete, had to run the root exploit the time because I must have been hitting enter at the wrong time cause superuser kept telling me binary was out of date and it couldn't update. Now I'm running on slot 1 with a deoxided so I can figure out what I want to add and change. Currently running the M's Homer launcher because I love those flippy little circles.<br /><br />Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2<br /><br />

Did a full 246 fxz, rerooted, restored apps, saved root with voodoo, applied JB update, lost root, got it back with motoshare2, donated to Dan.  :D

I am so tempted to d/l the 32bit libraries after I update my install, and go through the process again. Love wubi!

I picked the first one because there wasn't an option for:

 

I updated to JB, used Rootkeeper and still had root, then had other issues and had to FXZ, lost root so needed to re-root.

I haven't had to use it yet. I followed Sam's advice and updated SU binaries prior accepting the OTA and maintained root with rootkeeper.

I actually kept root through the update, but was one of the unfortunate ones who installed bootstrap without realizing that bootstrap and JB hate each other
