got this from the desire forum:

downloaded it, modified the source to avoid mmap at 0, which doesn't work for us, compiled it and I've got root on the original 2.1update1 version from SE. you can do the same with the original source or download my binary.
the only change I did was to mmap at 4092. all credits should go to scotty who pulled us from our misery .
after you get rootted you know what to do: mount rw, copy su, busybox, etc.
I dont realy understand for what is this and how can help us.
Good Job sonty. We don't need now return from updated 2.1 back to 1.6 root it and again flashing to 2.1. Its really easier and faster method I think.
pretty cool, and so far i've googled it should really work BUT.... how?
PLZ....could you give any tut?
Many(!) thanks
How to use it?
so this can be used to root 2.1 directly? what's with the busybox then?
Wow!
Thats great !
Confirmed working on 2.1 firmware.
SWEET! Can anyone kindly explain or write a tutorial?
Tutorial please. . .
on how to use this exploit.
Maybe we try to replace old exploit from superoneclick to the new one from this thread?
i have no chance to try it because i have already rooted device, but.. maybe it will work. I need testers
SuperOneClick works
Hi!
Can just report SuperOneClick worked with my x8 2.1 on first try!
Thanks a lot......
Great job!
Awesome! Tutorial please
perfecto with superoneclic thank you
Do I understand right, I just have to download the attached SOC to my PC and then it's possible to Root X8 2.1, without downgrading or something else? Great Job!!
This is awsome, can't wait to try it out.
This works perfectly! Thanks!
WOW.. nice work there.
That's great !That works perfectly!
I rooted with this program. So my questions are:
1. How to delete apps. I tried Root uninstaller and AppRemover, they say that the app is deleted, but it's not.
2. When i update to 2.0.2 will this root work again?
Will this work with the updated/latest eclair build no. 2.0.2.A.0.24?

The name of the apk is Universal Androot
To root, simply install the apk and press the root button

Woot and your x 10 is rooted
Use at your own risk
can anyone confirm thnis.. this looks damn esy
yup, it works ! ^^ , tks anyway!
i already rooted my x10A to the 23 rom, which version does this root ur X10 to? and btw anyone tested this on the X10A?
let me know!
thanks
Will it work for x10a???
Could this be the holy-grail (from a user standpoint at least) of rooting? I'd love to hear comments on it's success (I'm already running 026 rooted, otherwise I'd try it).
As much as I appreciate all the work the X10 root devs have put into getting root on this phone and providing a solution for we lowly masse: I'd love a single-step solution. Seeing solutions for other phones like the one-touch root for the Galaxy S and jailbreakme.com do make me a bit jealous.
I am on rooted 026 too, otherwise will have a try.
Anyway, if it is true, that would be great for it is easier to do. Could any dev check and see if this way has any inspiration to your work.

From a quick glance at it I'd say it's the X10 mini exploit packaged and automated into an apk. Since the exploit appears to be a generic userland exploit it would explain how it works on so many devices.
Is there a way to unroot?

The apk has a unroot button too so that you can reverse the rooting process before you return your device to se for whatever reasons
i was so excited that i reflashed and rerooted with this.
works a charm. fantastic!!!
the superuser is not working. whats the fix?
mine works perfectly with superuser privilege
i used another one from the other thread "X10Root" and it works perfectly. rooted after clean update via seus. now on R2BA026. it includes superuser.apk. i think this one doesnt.
tested, and proved to work perfectly. really convenient.
There is one big problem with this root method, I can't get ADB to work. Operations are not permitted :/
Right heres a really stupid question--Will this work with the Apps Installer app or no I need the SDK from Android.Im totally new to Android and just picked up an X10i.This root seems to be the easiest so far--Stuck on Vodafone Ireland @ Rf014 (I think) so I need to root and upgrade to a later version.
I'm scared to trying this should i give a shot?
works fantastically on my 26
its the apk built from xperia mini root method
it works well with xperia too

You can't root with the Wildfire on 2.2.1. You will have to wait till a software solution comes by.
Till now, the only way to root is to find someone with an XTC Clip (A hardware unlocking box), get S-OFF on your phone, and then downgrade from 2.2.1 to 2.1, and then root.
hi,
u must downgrade to 2.1 with RUU WWE in shipped rom and do unrevoke to root it. install wildpuzzle or impros or CM7 , so u can use live wallpaper.

Don't spread wrong information / misunderstanding among members please. Downgrading will work, but, it will just downgrade the Android OS from 2.2.1 to 2.1, but not the HBOOT, meaning even if you downgrade, it will NOT be rootable using Unrevoked.
As I stated, the only way as of now is to find someone with an XTC Clip box.
Hi
Thanks for the replay.

There's no info at all about when it will release. Sorry.
To install APK Files, first, just get any File Manager from the market (eg: ASTRO). Then, enable Sideloading by going to Settings > Applications > Tick Mark Unknown Sources. Then, simply open the APK file using the File Manager.
Hey I just got my Lg oPtimus one P500 and I want to know how to root it, superoneclick doesnt work for some odd reason (I think I needed to download some huge apk program or something, idk, I'm not much of a techie) and I need to know how to root it! (is there an app I can download? z4root didn't work)
If I root is it gonna erase all my data?
and where can I find a link to information on how to overclock my phone. cause I want to get it a bit faster but I don't want to blow it up :\
id appreciate help, thanks!
Go back to ROM 2.2 and then Install z4root. It's pretty straight forward.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953
You can also use SuperOneClick.
Here is a guide for doing everything from rooting through to custom ROM with lots of explanation.

don't forget to say thanks
ok thanks ill check out the website
zd4root doesnt work its really annoying! i downloaded the correct apk file installed it ran it...it begins the rooting process then just quits. and everything is normal.

hi ya, i have just come from the pulse which i know is totally different, and the wildfire, which wasnt rooted, this phone is amazing compared to them, so far francos rom to me is perfect and each kernel he releases is perfect for me aswell.
oh and to the OP, im not sure about using the other roots but with gingerbreak, i installed it on the phone, run it, it rooted it and put superuser on there, i then used the guide and put on the custom recovery and francos rom, all in all it was very easy..
i tried the gingerbreak v1.20 on v10c 2.2.1 indian stock rom and it worked perfectly.
btw i broke my old optimus and bought a new one.
so sad my dead optimus
Hello!
First off, I have no idea where to start. Neither is it easy to look up any tutorial or anything, but let's take that off our minds.
Where do I start? Right now, I'm running Android V.2.2.3 with no custom kernels or ROMs, but that is what I want to try out.
Is there a thread for how to install custom ROM and kernels? I'd appreciate if you posted it.
Ok, #1 use the search, it works and most android phones work the same
#2 there is a thead in this very section for flashing an sh*t
As Rores said above, use the search option. There's probably 50 people asking the same question. Anyways, to root you have a couple methods.
1) z4Root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953 It's just a simple APK so it doesn't take that much effort
2) SuperOneClick. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682 SuperOneClick can root almost ANY device, so it's highly likely it can root yours.
3) *If your on Android 2.2 or lower only* Gingerbreak. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765 Pretty much the same as z4Root. Install an APK, run the program and done!
Try them all, it can't break your device. The worst it can do is cause a factory reset.

In all honesty, that is why I asked! The "very thread" says that it is created for semi-newbs, for example people who have flashed atleast one ROM, which I currently have not.
EDIT: SuperOneClick is such a magnificent piece of program. "Not Responding"
If that is the case, I'll probably stick unrooted. NP
Hey guys, i got my atrix earlier this morning and have been trying to root and unlock the device. While unlocking the devices was easy thanks to this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423
got got to the end of it and my atrix says unlocked when it boots up which is great but i can't seem to root the devices i have tried a lot of the thread here, i won't be able to fix the ram problem without root .Could anyone help me out?
As far as i know there is no direct rooting method for 2.3.6 yet, ideally you would have been better off rooting 2.3.4 and using OTA Rootkeeper and then updating to 2.3.6. Shouldn't be long before someone comes out with a root method for your version.
hmm so i'm stuck with this for now? i came from a rooted milestone so i don't really know but i can't flash any rom for now right?
After a little surfing the guys down in Brazil claim to be rooting their Atrix phones running 2.3.6 using the SuperOneClick method i'm not sure if you've tryed it yet but it's worth a shot.
SuperOneClick thread:

If you can't find a working SuperOneClick download link there's this one:

Edit: As for the installing of custom ROMs without root i'm not to sure about that sorry.
thanks a lot i'll try if it works
Edit: it seems that it is working you just made my day even better
edit 2: i got superuser installed but i can't seem to be able to delete/rename the install-recovery.sh as stated in the guide' i'll try to see what is wrong
edit 3: i am rooted and titanium back up works i'll take a break and figure out the rest later thanks again
Try using the root explorer in the ROM Toolbox app, supposedly some file explorers will not give you the proper access levels to delete or rename the files correctly. Read that in tayshun12's thread:
