Motorola Droid Bionic gains perma-root before Launch

If you are anything like me, then no matter how bad a$$ a device may be you wait for a root announcement before you pick one up. That’s how I was with the Vibrant and how I plan to purchase devices going forward. There is no way I can live with out custom ROMs and all the other goodies that come with root. Thankfully root is fully functioning on the unreleased Droid Bionic.

The guys over at MyDroidWorld were able to convince a source that has a Bionic to try out the root method that was put together and released for the Droid 3. Low and behold, just like they thought it would, it worked. The Bionic will be hitting shelves in about a week and you are already guaranteed full permanent root access. If you have been eyeballing this device but were worried about Motorola making your life difficult or miserable, you can breathe easy now. Now we just need the devs to start cranking out those ROM’s that will make the device truly bionic.
