ways to root

Check out Z4ROOT in the market. The app makes it easy to root the Pro. See the dev's thread on XDA:

• [APP] z4root - xda-developers - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953

Use the permanent root and you can un-root from the app. The temporary root option are for a handful of phones like the Incredible that will root but lose root after a reboot.

try moving the apk to system/app folder and launching? Also took me two tries, same as radyoactive. Got stuck for a half hour, so I pulled the battery and tried again with success.

No available ROMs yet for the Pro.

look for superoneclick, that works too

NONE OF THE ABOVE WORK FOR Android version 2.3.4

Gingerbreak (keeps spinning) Z4root (fails) Pete's Motorola Root Tools (says its done, but there is no root) Superoneclick, it freezes at step 7 as everyone else. Motofail finishes the process but phone isn't rooted. Motorola once click root zroot4

Pete's tool works with 2.3.3, but not with 2.3.4.

rooting 2.3.4 with sys 4.7.3.XT610

I was on the fully updated version of Gingerbread for Droid Pro i.e., 2.3.4 with System Version 4.7.3.XT610.Verizon.en.US.

I tried using Z4Root on my Droid Pro 2.3.4, but that didn't work out.

I read through many forums and I learnt that the promising way to Root Droid Pro 2.3.4 is by downgrading it to Gingerbread 2.3.3 and using Pete's motorola tools or by using Super One Click. Hence I took this approach.

The rooting method may not work for you if you are on a different version or if your Droid Pro is from Argentina etc. Mine is a Verizon US Droid Pro.
