Moto CLIQ rooted!

Android lovers and Cliq users rejoice — the Motorola Cliq has officially been rooted. If you’re looking for custom goodies such as honest to goodness themes (instead of home replacements) and a few other hacked items you’re good to go. However, if you’re real intentions are to install some tweaked ROM’s (hello HTC Sense on your Moto Cliq) hold off for a bit longer. According to those responsible for the root — TheDudesAndroid of ModMyMoto — it isn’t yet ready to install “update.zip” files. Mind you, the update.zip method is by far the easiest and fool-proof way to update/hack such things.

Again, for now it’s best to let the more technically inclined to toil away at the hole Cliq rooting thing. Though if you’re feeling adventurous, by all means go ahead. Just be sure to report back here when you’re done.
