Re: How-To: Root your Droid

I must be a complete idiot. I just got my Droid coming over from a TP2. I have rooted the phone from the instructions on the first page. I then read all the posts here. For the life of me I am trying to do what Parkjam said in the second post trying to block ota updates. I typed it in exactly how it was written but it was a no go. Plus a whole bunch of other things. I'm sure after a few days of having this phone I'll pick things up but its going slow. Any help would be appreciated and please be kind on this noob
