rooting problems!!

Ok trying to root my bro's motorola droid x and I am not having any luck at all.
can anyone help me out to get this rooted. I wanna install a rom on it but can't root this phone at all need help asap
What method are you trying? Have you tried z4 root? I've done a bunch of Dx's and D2G's with that app no problems. It even worked on HTC Droid Eris.

[Q] I need help!

Hello everyone, I'm somewhat of a novice still to rooting android phones. I had the Samsung Fascinate previously, and it was a really simple process..but I had returned it for a Droid 2 R2D2 edition a week or so afterwards. Ever since then I've had the desire to root it and install a custom rom (something vanilla gingerbread or equivalent) to it, but I've been so confused about the differences between the Droid 2 R2D2 edition from the regular Droid 2 that I've been too intimidated to venture into world of it. But tomorrow I'm getting the Droid X2 probably (unless someone here would like to suggest a different phone) and I'm willing to experiment
So my question is..can someone give me a general idea of the process I need to take for my Droid 2 R2D2 from rooting to the rom I should use? Thanks guys!
Use z4 root
It is the easiest way.
It may not work first time, just reboot the phone if it doesn't and it should work the second time.
Search for the latest z4root apk on google (I don't know if its in the market)
As for roms, I have no idea if d2 roms will work with the r2d2. Check out fission rom at teamdefuse.net
Contact one of the developers and ask them

Also remember before flashing any roms, you must install the droid 2 bootstrap application (because of the locked bootloader)
This can be found on the market

Milestone X - C-Spire - ClockworkMod & rooted 2.3.5?

Which implementation for "Flash ClockworkModRecovery" should I use with rooted GB 2.3.5, Milestone X, C-Spire (Cellular South)?
Droid X or Droid 2?
Thanks.
pretty sure that it is droid 2 droid x
Nothing (none of the options w/ uninstall and wiping of the Clockwork Folder) worked, then I got "DROID X Bootstrapper" from a MegaDownload or something similar
and
made my first backup. Great!
Now to tackle Custom ROMS and pitfalls. I still need to efficiently get to SBF my phone back to FROYO for security.
Definitely DROID X Bootstrapper from market......worth the money impo..
on gingerbread with the x... droid 2 bootstrap actually works better... so when ya buy one to support the dev... get droid 2 bootstrap... so you can keep usb debugging enabled...
Good to know Nemo.... Wait a minute, hell, I'm using debugging right now with the first 1.....???? What's up with that?

check the link in my signature below. there is a link to Doomlord's zergrush root.
I tried the zergrush root but my phone would not down load. It kept saying that the down load was unsuccessful or that it failed. My phone was rooted before but when I did the update it messed up. Help. Im new to all this and still trying to learn.
That isn't an application you use on your phone...
And .zips won't download with the stock browser, is your problem.
Download it to your PC and run it with your phone plugged in.

What the Hell are the words you are saying? Are you trying to say that these roms are compatible with safestrap? If so, where are the links for these roms? I understand if English is not your first language, but this post is not coherent enough.
Thank you for idea and list of roms but links will be really useful

Whats up, my brother gave me his razr maxx hd xt926 yesterday and he wants me to switch it to GSM so he can use ST. I promised him ill do more than that with your phone! well when I got on my computer I was seeing that you cant unlock or get root because he had the latest update, this is what h its running 9.30.1 XT926 4.1.2 build 9.8.1q-94-1 . luckily I got root using saferoot that's one problem down. now I would be glad if anybody could point me in the right direction for the next step I should take to be able to get roms and that cool stuff. the switching to GSM looks like no problems. I know I need a recovery to. should I install a recovery first or do the GSM thing first witch one is best to do first? I already have root and phone is still locked.
Search for safestrap 3.12
It's great and simple to use.

Never mind the top post, that was a post I did in another thread awhile ago just copied and pasted it here. ok I finished all the steps, now all I need to know is what are good roms that I can install using safestrap recovery that wont mess with the at&t service I'm about to use. Thanks getting the hang of this
Only 3 are current:
There are 2 in the dev section (1) & (8) from the op's list.
Then this guy @Q9Nap aka mhous33 has one just as he did for the 907 here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45541392&postcount=1

while there has not been ported to 4.4 for us to enjoy the locked bootloader. update patient there may be a bright spot for us to be unlocked and enjoy. be patient and enjoy the current rom.
Yes Prabu is right, we have to wait untill there is a bootloader unlock for latest build 9.30.1, after that we can have custom roms,
Hi all, can any one please help here, i flashed the Rage HD 2.6 rom with safestrap, later on i went back to stock, there is rage hd startup screen every time fone boots up, i flashed the fone with razr HD utility, 1.34, even still it shows up the rage hd boot screen, how to have motorola logo back, please, any help would be appriciated.
Do you mean bootanimation? If yes, just replace /system/media/bootanimation.zip with original one.
Sent from my Razr Maxx HD
No not boot animation, i've done that, copied stock boot animation zip in system/media, but that didnt work. Its rage hd splash screen with lightening and blue color, immediately after power on, earlier it was moto M sign in red color.
