first time posting to these forums and would like to contribute my findings i was able to gain root on the uscc htc desire in adb using some other guides for the evo 4g unlock. but now i need some help on how to get the modified su in the right place to make this work for the apps. these are the steps i used to gain temporary root.
1) installed android sdk to get adb
2) set up the phone in debug mode
3) downloaded the rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin file(attached)
4) ran this from the sdk folder containing adb.exe
Code:
adb.exe push C:/PATH/TO/FILE/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp
adb.exe shell
cd /data/local/tmp
chown 0755 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
./rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
5) adb shell will exit retype adb.exe shell and now you have root
this is as far as i have got so far now i need to know where to put su which i could not find in /system/xbin
also i am new to the android scene so sorry if this is a bad question, but if i were to flash a recovery image of the gsm desire to my cdma would this work to enter adb in recovery mode or would this brick my phone, i didnt know if the recovery affected that or if that was the rom.
I think you need to put su and Superuser.apk on you sdcard (adb push file /sdcard/)
Then
in your su shell prompt
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
cat /sdcard/Superuser.apk > /system/app/Superuser.apk
cat /sdcard/su > /system/bin/su
chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
Please let us know if this works.
I hope this works out!

i found out that this command doesnt actually make the system directory writeable
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
and running it a second time causes the device to reboot.
any sugetions to make it writable, im willing to work on this, but like i said i have no experience with android although i am very familiar linux.
You are aware that while booted into Android the /system is not writeable?
You have to boot into recovery mode to do this.
i am now, i tried the method for the incredible but it seems to not run adb on bootup at least after about 15 tries it didn't work, any suggestions? is there a way to flash the recovery without effecting the radio or rom because there isn't any roms for this phone as of yet, or could you point me in the right direction to start my research on how to write a rom? would it be the same as rolling your own linux distro?
also though this to be worth mentioning there seems to be no su file currently on the phone.
i got some time this morning to dig around in the payload-update.zip files for the incredible and was wondering if i could use this to install su because it looks like it doesn't flash anything (atleast looking at the script it looks like it doesn't, i cant say that for the binary file what does that do?) just wondering if there would be any adverse affects by applying this in recovery.
It might be worth talking to AmonRA, or Koush (I believe he works on Clockwork Mod) for a custom recovery. As for installing superuser, you could try the unrevoked team. (unrevoked.com) I wish I knew more in terms of development to help but I hope this leads you in the right direction.
blitz2190 - Here is a link to Superuser.apk and su. Link
I think you need to put su and Superuser.apk on you sdcard (adb push file /sdcard/)
Then
in your su shell prompt
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
cat /sdcard/Superuser.apk > /system/app/Superuser.apk
cat /sdcard/su > /system/bin/su
chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
I am very interested to know how this works out. If you need anyone else to help test things let me know. I am not a linux buff, but i can follow commands...

Is there a simple, non-CWM flashing one-click root for stock EB13 Epics (I just want to tether to my rooted nook)?
I ask because a few months back I rooted my DI18 Epic with a "One Click Root" and, for some reason, all my apps became unlinked from the android market, and nothing I did worked to restore their connections. After a few hours of panic, I unrooted using the accompanying "One Click Unrooter," and the problem went away.
Then, I noticed my bluetooth was't working. I took it to the Sprint store, they ordered me a replacement phone, and then wouldn't exchange it because CWM was on my current phone. I got them to exchange it eventually, but I felt like a complete dumbass for not knowing it didn't come off in the one-click-unrooting process.
So, is there a way to just get root? And then is there a simple way to get rid of it (uninstall SU and such as well) in case I have to exchange the hardware?
I've read a lot of stuff about flashing stock with Odin, but all the dl links for Odin are 404'd, and I'd rather not have to go back to fresh stock every time I need to take my phone in. What's your advice?
SuperOneClick v1.7 worked for me.

I don't know about "one-click", z4root might work, but there's anecdotal reports of it not working on Android 2.2.1. The one-click w/CWM redirector is the easiest way to root and definitely recommended if you want to do anything more advanced (ROMs, etc.). You can always return to stock everything with Odin.
That said, if all you want is root and nothing more, the manual version is relatively simple. It's really just three steps:
Use an exploit (rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin) to get "temporary root" (an ADB root shell).
Install Superuser's su binary to /system/xbin with the appropriate permissions (root.shell 4755).
Sideload Superuser.apk as a regular program, or download it from the market.
In which case "unrooting" is trivial. Just delete /system/xbin/su with root-explorer or something, and after remove Superuser via "Manage applications".
A while back I wrote up semi-detailed directions for doing this. They should work on EB13 with some modification. Here's some notes for EB13:
"rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin", "su", and "Superuser.apk" are all included in the one click package, that's the easiest place to get them.
Actually running "rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin" is the trickest part. There's a few ways to do it, and due to the nature of the exploit, sometimes only one or two of them will work for anyone. You can tell it works if on the next run of "adb shell" you get a "#" prompt instead of "$". Try these three ways in order until one of them works:
Code:
adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb shell /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
Code:
adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb shell (press return, and type below at the "$" prompt):
/data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
Code:
adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp
adb push root.sh /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/root.sh
adb shell /data/local/tmp/root.sh
With the last method's root.sh from the one-click package.
Once you have root, and have verified such by getting a "#" prompt with "adb shell", then run:
Code:
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/root.sh
adb shell mount -wo remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
adb push su /system/xbin
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
adb shell mount -ro remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
adb install Superuser.apk
If you do nothing more, OTA updates should apply just fine. The only caveat is that /system/xbin/su will lose the appropraite permissions, so Superuser will no longer work. To restore it, do the same steps above to regain "temporary root", then run:
Code:
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/root.sh
adb shell mount -wo remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
adb shell mount -ro remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
You shouldn't have to push a new "su" binary since it's already there, and similarly, you don't need to reinstall Superuser.
There is already an excellent write-up on how to use SuperOneClick to root your Optimus V.
Unfortunately, you may not have a Windows machine available to run the util, or your PC hates the LG drivers, or you may wish to control how you go about rooting your device.
Hence this short write-up which, obviously, relies on pieces I got from that other write-up.
I. Rooting your device
1. You still need ADB!
2. Download the LG Optimus V Tools package from http://nexus.zteo.com/projects/tools/
3. Unzip it
4. Command-line:
Code:
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/
adb push su /data/local/tmp/
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 777 psneuter
chmod 777 su
./psneuter
5. You should be kicked out of the shell
6. Command-line:
Code:
adb shell
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
cat /data/local/tmp/su > /system/bin/su
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
(Oh look you are root!)
That's it. You now have permanent root access.
After rebooting your phone, adb should be back to logging you in as a regular user but typing "su" will do the trick.
Note: I realize that the version of SuperUser.apk that comes with SuperOneClick might be re-usable here. I haven't had any success with it but you may.
II. Flashing a new ROM
1. After rooting your device, obviously...
2. Get an image for the ROM you wish to flash...
Currently, my favourite one is a fairly recent version of Zefie's CM7.
You can find it by googling "update-cm-7-04282011-NIGHTLY-thunderc-Xionia-signed.zip" -- I will refer to it, below, as <your_rom_zip_file>
3. Get a minimum Google Apps package for flashing as well.
Here, I would google "gapps-gb-20110325-signed.zip" -- I will refer to it, below, as <your_gapps_zip_file>
3. Command-line:
Code:
adb push flash_recovery /data/local/tmp/
adb push recovery.img /sdcard/
adb push Debug-FormatSYSTEM.zip /sdcard/
adb push <your_rom_zip_file> /sdcard/
adb push <your_gapps_zip_file> /sdcard/
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/flash_recovery
/data/local/tmp/flash_recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
reboot recovery
4. In recovery: Flash Debug-FormatSYSTEM.zip
5. In recovery: Wipe cache and dalvik-cache
6. In recovery: Flash <your_rom_zip_file> -- this will take a while
7. Do not reboot!
8. In recovery: Flash <your_gapps_zip_file>
9. Now, reboot.
10. Let your phone think about life for a few minutes
11. Select "Skip" when your phone asks you to create/enter your account info
12. Launch the market; now, enter your main account information
Hey first of all let me tell you that I appreciate this guide. Now my problem is that I am such a noob that I may be doing this wrong.I download the file to my optimus.Then in an explorer I extract it, correct? After that once I put in the first line of command on terminal emulator I get an error that says "adb: permission denied". Please help this guide is my last resort.Whatever I do I can not root through windows.It would be nice if you could explain in more detail every step. Thanks!
help
can u please add a little more detail thank u very much appreciated.
SouthParkFan15:
adb is a tool that you run on your computer; it is available for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. It is part of the Google SDK.
thizizjohnny:
Could you give me a little more detail regarding what detail you are interested in?
How do I unzip?.. is extract the same thing? I'm running Linux mint 10. How do I get adb? Excuse my noobness.
Sent from my VM670 using XDA App
Oh and one last thing.. does this work on android version 2.2.1?
Sent from my VM670 using XDA App
Yes this works with 2.2.1.
On Linux Mint, you can use the package manager or the unzip command in a terminal window.
apk:
Download the SDK at http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Install it, then run "android" and select "Install platform tools"
I finally got adb on my system, but when I type in "adb devices" nothing comes up and when I do any command that involves the phone i get "error:device not found".Yes I have usb debugging on and yes I have all the right drivers installed and yes I have tried rebooting a million times, and no my computer has never recognized my phone the way it should.Let me also point out that though pdanet or droid explorer they can't find my device. Help please I'm desperate!
Oh, my. Sorry to read that.
Problem is, in 2.2.x, the exploits that give you root access rely on ADB itself so you couldn't be more out of luck.
On second thought...this may seem a bit weird but there may be a way. I have to think about it. It would involve using a file manager that agrees to "see" /data/local/tmp, running psneuter from there and keeping our fingers crossed. I'll keep you updated.
Alright thanks cyansmoke! Keep me informed.
I ran all of the steps for rooting and I didn't get one error. It didn't seem to work though. When I launch adb again after rebooting my phone I get permission denied when I try to run su.
Here is the cap from my command line. I have no idea why it didn't take.
C:\phone\LGOptimusVTools>adb shell
$ cd /data/local/tmp
cd /data/local/tmp
$ chmod 777 psneuter
chmod 777 psneuter
$ chmod 777 su
chmod 777 su
$ ./psneuter
./psneuter
property service neutered.
killing adbd. (should restart in a second or two)
C:\phone\LGOptimusVTools>adb shell
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
# cat /data/local/tmp/su > /system/bin/su
cat /data/local/tmp/su > /system/bin/su
# mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
# exit
exit
C:\phone\LGOptimusVTools>adb shell
$ su

It's possible that you have another su in your path that takes precedence.
Please try typing:
/system/bin/su
Hey, do you know if there is a way to upgrade my device to froyo 2.2.2? It's currently 2.2.1 and whenever I go to update system it says something like "Your system is up to date".Incase you have forgotten I have the optimus v that can't establish connections with the computer.So what I could do?I'm thinking that If I do that then maybe it could fix all of my problems (or some of them).Thanks
I don't think that it will help you no.
OK it's taking longer than I thought because my wife's LGV, after I restored it to stock, decided that it would not allow psneuter anymore.
Thus, I will need you to run these commands for me and let me know how that went:
1. First, copy psneuter to the root of your SD Card.
2. Then, download Terminal Emulator from the market
3. Run Terminal Emulator, type:
Code:
cp /sdcard/psneuter /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
/data/local/tmp/psneuter
Now, if we are lucky, you should get kicked out of the terminal app (I know it's weird but there is a claim that it goes through adb(!))
Restart the terminal emulator. If we are double-lucky, your prompt should have changed from '$' to '#'
Fingers crossed. Still surprised to hear that terminal emulator would go through adb. No, let me rephrase that: I am moderately surprised, in fact, considering the limitations put on non-rooted apps.
After I put psneuter on the root of my sdcard.I go to terminal emulator and put in the first code and it says "cp: permission denied".Any suggestions?

Ah, my bad, no "cp" by default.
New instructions:
Code:
cat /sdcard/psneuter > /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
/data/local/tmp/psneuter
After I put in the first code I get an error message saying "cannot create /data/local/tmp/: is a directory".
*facepalm*
Of course I should have written:
Code:
cat /sdcard/psneuter > /data/local/tmp/psneuter
I put in "cat /sdcard/psneuter > /data/local/tmp/psneuter" and I get an error message saying "cannot create /data/local/tmp/psneuter: directory nonexistent".
Any suggestions?
Rooting The Ampe A10 Dual core 3g ICS
1.
Download and install the drivers required to connect the tablet to a windows pc (I used Win7) not any old ADB drivers will do the first ones I came across didn’t work so I recommend downloading from here - http://www.topnotchtablets.com/installADBdriver (PDA Net for Android)
2.
Download the rooting program from this thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Bin4ry…zip direct link - http://ul.to/h44f6vni
3.
Extract the contents of the zip folder into a directory on the pc
Rooting is done at your own risk!
4.
Plug the tablet into the pc and run the RunMe.bat file
Screen will pop up select option 1 Normal
follow the instructions on the screen, it will refer to the tablet and you need to select restore. Once updated a reboot will happen and root should be done, if you wish to check root download root checker from the android market
enjoy
you mite like Webkey for example to remotely use the Android

The Ampe 10 seems to have its own recovery built in and can be started by turning the device off turn it back on hold both volume up and power. From this menu you can recover / update from the SD card. I found the original firmware here 86pp.com/download_view.asp and have installed this one you need to extract msm7627a_fw8937-ota-eng_mmc.zip from the downloaded zip copy it to the SD
I think the firmware can also be found here: szampe.com/support_down.asp? but as its all in Chinese its difficult to tell

After that install Titanium Backup and check for errors and let TB fix it (Some permissions seems to be "broken".).

You cannot use an other image. For now it's not possible to use nandroid. Try "Titanium Backup Root" for a most complete backup.

1. Edit the script, replace the code in section ":root", save the file and execute the script
2. Check the connection with option 1 and choose option 2 to root
3. If you don't know what i explained, ask somebody who knows a bit about batch-programming
its worked for sanei n10 dual core 3g tablet pc Thank you !

Thanks!
Is it possible to create an image out of an other one in an easy way and what do i need to do this?
Or is it to much complicated to work out an recovery image?
I am not really firm with those android things but willing to learn if possible with a "how to guide" for building recovery images
Worked great on Ampe A10, 5min job!
Any news about Android 4.1.x update/rom? Cyanogenmod? Any way to get Jellybean?
Tried to find a way to get jelly bean but i think there isn't any...
BTW, does anyone know SNES emulator that works with this tablet?
I thought I'd let folks know what I did in order to root on 8.5.1 and not have slowness. This isn't a complete walkthrough and assumes you have ADB drivers installed and working and access to ADB.
First I used the exploit found in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544736
I downloaded kindlehd2013_root.zip and also got the zip copy of superuser from
http://download.clockworkmod.com/superuser/superuser.zip
I extracted all to a folder. I then replaced the su from the kindlehd2013_root.zip with the superuser.zip armeabi folder version. Then you run the commands it has in the post.
adb push su /data/local/tmp/
adb push rootme.sh /data/local/tmp/
adb push exploit /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rootme.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/exploit
Before I ran this last line I made sure su had the correct permissions:
type adb shell:
then ran the command
chmod 6755 /data/local/tmp/su
adb shell /data/local/tmp/exploit -c "/data/local/tmp/rootme.sh"
now you can get root via ADB by going into
adb shell
then run the command su
from there I made sure the su had the correct permissions again in the new location:
mount -o remount,rw /system
I had a complaint about space so I just removed the officesuite.apk in /system/apps to the sdcard
chown 0:0 /system/xbin/su
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
Then using the superuser.apk from the zip installed it.
adb install superuser.apk
Hope this helps others have success. From here you can follow the tutorials to get Google apps and such. I'd love to run an alternative ROM but have the LTE version and haven't been able to find one that has working LTE.
Hi Macman005!!
I want to use your method to root my Hd 8.9, I dont want too install a room, only install google services to use my chromecast. But before I want to Know:
How I move the officesuite.apk in /system/apps to the sdcard, if I have the space complaint you had?
I really appreciate any help you can provide

On device you can use es file explorer -> enable root explorer from the left side the click on root explorer -> mount r/w -> then make sure /system is rw
Via ADB
adb pull /system/app/OfficeSuite.apk
adb shell
su for root
mount -o remount,rw /system
rm /system/app/OfficeSuite.apk
Hi Macman005
I had follow your instructions and I had manage to root my hd 8.9, total success!!!
Thanks!!
hi there folks,
so i've read through a bunch of guides and steps to accompish getting root on a kindle fire hd 8.9 running 8.5.1
i followed your above steps to the T but everytime i try and execute the exploit i get a error like this
***********
Attempt msm_cameraconfig exploit...
Detected kernel physical address at 0x80008000 form iomem
Attempt put_user exploit...
write: No space left on device
************
i read further into this post and in others that moving files around was the answer but i'm unable to move the files using
Code:
./adb shell
mv /system/OfficeSuite.apk /sdcard
i get a error like "failed cross device link"
so i'm guessing i'll only have access after rooting to move or delete files in /system
************
Code:
$ df

/dev 383M 32K 383M 4096

any suggestions tips or links would be appreciated
Use adb pull to get the file out of /system/app then just try to delete it. I'm guessing it won't work though without root.
Did you check to see if su was in the /system/xbin/su dir?

already tried rm -rf OfficeSuit.apk
pulling it leaves the file inplace
su is in place in xbin

i've tried tinkering with permissions with no luck
i'm not worried about root on the kindle os, i mostly want to stick CM11 on it - i recall reading a article on cyanogenmod's page about flashing the CM11 rom on the kindle it didn't mention that root was required i just kind of assumed it was to be able to install a second bootloader etc
If you don't need to follow my root you just use this tutorial. The root being slow isn't a big deal since you'll replace it with cm11

sweet thanks for the tip - i'll give this one a try (i'd tried a couple other methods with no success)
Everything good for me until:
adb shell /data/local/tmp/exploit -c "/data/local/tmp/rootme.sh"
Then I get:
Code:
Device detected: KFJWI (IMM76D)
Attempt acdb exploit...
KFJWI (IMM76D) is not supported.
Attempt fj_hdcp exploit...
Attempt msm_cameraconfig exploit...
Detected kernel physical address at 0x80008000 form iomem
Attempt put_user exploit...
After that nothing works. Any ideas where i might have taken the wrong turn?
Do you have su in the /system/xbin folder?

Thanks for reply macman.
I gave up... Followed the instructions you gave and all seemed well until step: adb shell /data/local/tmp/exploit -c "/data/local/tmp/rootme.sh"
So not sure but will check when I can try again. Would love to totally clean out amazon junk and turn into android pad.
Im having the same problem as Justanumber, and I'm not sure if I have the su in the /system/xbin folder
I was able to root 8.5.1. What I did was try the Bin4ry method, first option 1, when that didn't work option 2. It made my kindle run slow and was almost unusable. Being very patient due to the slowness, I tried the QEMU method. It seems like some things transferred to the kindle and others didn't and I got an error. I then went back to Bin4ry and ran unroot and got an error. The last thing I tried was to run root option 2 once more and success. I then went right to Hashcodes post and installed a second bootloader and cm11. I'm not a developer so I put everything I did. Maybe someone who knows what they are doing can figure out what is needed from all that. Whatever I did though, I got for on 8.5.1 without any issues once it went through
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
worked perfectly for me on 8.5.1, always a bit nervous messing with the kindle but no problems . Big thanks to the op. I didn't have any complaints about space, and there was none of the slowdown problems so many people complain about after rooting the new firmware. Now i have installed hashcode's cm12 port and its like a brand new gadget...
I got as far as "adb shell", but the su command returns "permission denied"
What exactly do you mean when you say "check su permissions." First time using ADB.
please help me

I'm pretty proficient with ADB, so your steps were easy to follow. Now I have a rooted Kindle Fire HD 8.9 on 8.5.1.
Thank you
Hello,
I'm following these instructions. When I run su, i get "Permission Denied."
Any ideas? The steps before seem to run fine.
When i run the exploit, i see the follwing:
Device detected: KFJWI (IMM76D)
Attempt acdb exploit...
KFJWI (IMM76D) is not supported.
Attempt fj_hdcp exploit...
Attempt msm_cameraconfig exploit...
Detected kernel physical address at 0x80008000 form iomem
Attempt put_user exploit...
---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 PM ----------
I got it to work.
I enterd adb shell, then exploit again, without the rootme.sh argument.
Then su worked and I was able to get everything to run
Thanks for the instructions!
