[Q] Superoneclick failure on Hero - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whe I attempt to root using superoneclick I first get a msg "auto version check failed". I verified my Sprint Hero is running 2.1. I click yes to the question am I using 2.0 or higher.
It continues on until I get "Getting mount path...
rootfs / rootfs ro 0 0
FAILED".
Now what?

Need help from botched root attempt.

GRRRRR SuperOneClick breaks it also
I hate posting a question, but I've exhausted searching for an answer.
I have a G1 that i am trying to root in order to flash, I made the mistake of using ANDROOT because it said it worked for G1. Well it said it rooted my phone, but I think it botched something internally because I can't actually get root access.
I then attempted to use the SUPERONECLICK and it ran through the whole proccess and failed when it did a test command at the end to send a SU request.
I then tried some other things to flash clockworkmod recovery with no success.
Now when I attempt to access root in terminal I get...
"371 could not load needed library 'libbinder.so' for 'su' (lLibrary 'libbinder.so' not found)CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE"
I'm not an idiot, I've rooted and flashed both the NEXUS ONE and CAPTIVATE many times problem free, but this has now got me stumpped and I've searched to no avail. Any help is appreciated.
I'm having the same problem.
Path I took was a bit different, just got here from WM some Linux exp not much.
I tried universal androot
It said it worked. But it didn't.
Then SuperOneClick
Failed at SU test.
So i tried the Shell Root that said it worked.
Only proof I have that it works is that android screen cast works.
Then I was installing Titanium and it said I didn't have root or my busy box was not installed. So I pushed I'm having trouble ... I downloads it.. to where i dont know
I tried pushing it from command prompt with
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
at this point I get that error
when I exit and come back into shell I get the same error just by typing SU.
Any help would be appreciated it. I have a Zio
What's a zio?
To both...start over with the DREAIMG.nbh and just start from scratch. These one clicks may work but they're boring. I actually unrooted one of my dreams and used visionary and it worked too funny (but boring)

[SOLVED] Lost Root Access?? [LOCK REQUEST]

Mod lock this thread! I decided to downgrade my SPL back to stock HBOOT-0.95.0000 and flash DREAM.nbh, so now I'm at a stock G1 running Android V1.0 the speed is amazing now lol. Going to root it again tomorrow k?, cya.
I don't know how, but I lost my root access. When I open Terminal on my phone, and type "su", it does not give the "#", which means I don't have root anymore. I don't know what to do, I'm running Cyanogenmod 6.1.0 RC1, DangerSPL is installed (HBOOT-1.33.2005), and my radio is 2.22.23.02 (T-Mobile USA).
What can I do to get my root access back?? Please help me. I'm running a Custom ROM w/o root access anymore!
EDIT: Okay, when I type "su", I now get the "#", so does that mean I have root again?
EDIT2: Whenever I type "cd /system", it does not let me go through... do I not have root??
EDIT3: Yeah, I don't think my phone isn't rooted anymore.. whenever I try to do the commands to gain root access, it gives errors saying (are you root?)
EDIT4: Damn it I'm getting pissed. When I type su, it gets the #, but when I type "mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system," it does not work and gives me a "mount: permission denied (are you root?)"
Somebody give me advice please.
What do you expect from a plain old 1.0 Android ROM? You do not have root, but ... you can gain it back easily. Follow the "standard" rooting tutorials.
One suggestion to all: read first, then flash.

Z4root no sup user app??

Hello everyone, I have been tring to root my phone for two day. I tried the z4root and it gets to rebooting and just stops, it finally reboots when I press the home button but it never installs super user app. I went to unlocker and tried androot, nothing. At the end of superone-click short fuse it failed the test for su permissions but installed superuser but it wouldnt do anything. Please help me root this phone. I have an Alltel phone. Kernel ver. 2.6.29-bc0d2cff firmware ver. 2.1-update 1 baseband ver. 2.42.01.04.23 if you need more info just pm me.
Thanks
I have never used these one click methods, but, if it actually roots it, just download super user from the market? Or just use one of the rooting methods found in the Development section (yes, you will have to read a short list of instructions).
I used z4 and it got stuck like you said, i clicked home and for me superuser was there.
but since not try rebooting and if its not there then, download android terminal emulator.. type su then press enter. if you see a # then youre rooted, so go just download superuser from the market and you should be solid
Try super one click. It installs superuser when it installs root files.

Ha. You should be nicer (kidding). I meant SuperOneClick v2.2.2. Which is what I've used to root HC V3.2 a couple of times now. I've done this so I can use one of the application managers to remove some of the factory installed dross in the stock firmware (which I think requires root access).
I'm a bit puzzled about one thing: As mentioned in another post in this thread, there are no known exploits for HC. So, I don't understand how this could be working, unless I'm not really rooting my tablet, or maybe its because the boot loader isn't locked in the first place?
If anyone happens to understand what's going on, I'd be happy to listen.

Hans

TL;DR: Yes.
I went and double checked. I'm running HC 3.2 on my Streak 7. The latest version of SuperOneClick I have is 2.2, according to the file I downloaded (dunno where I got 2.2.2 from, probably some mental issue).
I enabled USB debugging, took out my SD card, plugged my tablet in, and clicked the "Root" button.
It said my tablet was rooted. I installed "Root Uninstaller" and Superuser asked me if I wanted to grant it root access. I used this to remove Evernote and Kongregate. So, I think it worked.

What rom did you have installed? It could have already been rooted.
Also, there's always the possibility that there is a new exploit out that SoC uses that isnt patched. If there is then it will work for the time being. I dont actually read SoCs changelogs.
It COULD get fixed in the next stock rom (dell is still making more updates, they're simply not releasing them as pkgs) though. IF they ever actually decide to release another update OTA
I tried it and it failed so I went about rooting the long way. Took a while but I got it figured out. I would recommend doing the same.

One of the stock HC roms from Dell. The OEM version is: GLUNB1A350630.
I had rooted it before I did the upgrade (with the factory shipped firmware), but after upgrading, Superuser no longer worked. I did a full reset to stock 3.2 (via the recovery menu VOL+ or - (I forget which) while powering on), then did the SuperOneClick rooting procedure.

Hans
Instead of trying to use Super one click, Why not just follow this guide. Should have no issues rooting using the following steps. Yes its more than just click and wait, but its not very difficult if you follow the steps to the letter.

[HOWTO] Root the Galaxy Tab 2 7" without flashing the bootloader

Hi,
Here's a method based on a security hole to gain root on the Galaxy Tab 2 7" without heavy flashing by Odin. I've successfuly tested this method on my GT-P3110 running stock Android 4.0.3 on kernel 3.0.8-379370, version IML74K.P3110XXALD4.
The original post by Miloj :good: can be viewed here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704209
I've only "translated" the trick from TF300T to our Galaxy Tab. I guess it should work for other devices too... To make short, the goal here is to create a symbolic link from the famous /data/local/tmp to the block device on which /system is mounted. The mount command runned in an ADB shell can give the required information :
$ mount
rootfs / rootfs ro,relatime 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid,relatime,mode=755 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,relatime,mode=600 0 0
proc /proc proc rw,relatime 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw,relatime 0 0
none /acct cgroup rw,relatime,cpuacct 0 0
tmpfs /mnt/asec tmpfs rw,relatime,mode=755,gid=1000 0 0
tmpfs /mnt/obb tmpfs rw,relatime,mode=755,gid=1000 0 0
none /dev/cpuctl cgroup rw,relatime,cpu 0 0
/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/FACTORYFS /system ext4 ro,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/DATAFS /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc,discard 0 0
/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/CACHE /cache ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,barrier=1,nomblk_io_submit,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/EFS /efs ext4 rw,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/sys/kernel/debug /sys/kernel/debug debugfs rw,relatime 0 0
After identifying the block device, refer to the well-explained Miloj post and consider :
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]FOR SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 2 7" ONLY:[/COLOR]
Code:
$ ln -s /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/FACTORYFS tmp
$ exit
Hope it will help !

Well, you must follow Miloj's tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704209 from the start : push the binaries downloaded from http://db.tt/FBUNeVmo to /data/local, run an ADB shell and change directory to /data/local, move tmp to tmp.back then create the symbolic link to the block device with the ln command given in my post for the Galaxy Tab and type (or copy / paste) all the following commands (reboot, shell, clean-up, dirty work, ...) given by Miloj.
I know it's a little rough, I'll try to find some time to script all the stuff or adapt the one click tool quoted in Miloj's post.
Good luck !
yes it worked .awesome man thank you you rock ,now i have root in stock with binary counter value 0
The automated tool
Sparkym3 provides an automated tool for rooting the Transformer TF300T with Miloj method :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706588
I've modded the tool for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" (see attached file). Check the link above for the instructions and run the modded version called RootDebugfs_n95.bat instead of the original RootDebugfs.bat.
The original tool includes the Asus USB drivers... I failed to join the Samsung ones to the attached zip, maybe due to an excessive weight (near 19 Mo).
Happy rooting !
Gee, it's already been impossible with ICS4.0.4

If the security hole is patched in the 4.0.4 release, you'll get an "access denied" error while executing the "debugfs -w /data/local/tmp" command.
If it's the case, we must look for another rooting trick
Can you please tell which kind of error you get and if it's not the "access denied" one, post the result of a "mount" of your tablet (adb shell mount) ?
First,great job,thank you for your work,now we don't need to worry about warranity.Second,maybe you can help us again,can you please tell us how do we keep root,when upgrading 4.0.4? I know that Transformer tabs have some kind of app,named Root Keeper ,if you flash OTA update,and want to keep root.Maybe we can try something similar for our tab ,or using Mobile Odin maybe?
Thanks again!
Best Regards!

Yep,the whole point of this root method it's not to flash unofficial kernel using Odin,because it triggers the counter ,and it will void your warranity.If you root without Odin,than you can use Mobile Odin to flash roms,and you'll have the counter 0 ,so you'll keep your warranity. intact.

Yes, because this root method exploits a security hole of the tab's software integration and thus doesn't need Odin.
But I'd like to say that this kind of rooting method isn't better or worst than recovery flash...
Recovery flash causes warranty to be broken but is nearly granted to work.
Tricky methods keep warranty alive but have short lifetimes, like the one discussed here that seems to work only on 4.0.3, since providers like Samsung can't leave security holes on their systems and apply patches so the work (find a new trick or write an OTA-rootkeeper) must be done each time an update is released.
Man so no method like this forv4.04

Haven't got 4.0.4 myself so it's hard for me to say...
An unsuccessful try on 4.0.4 is reported here and hole patching by Samsung is strongly suspected.
Well, it's always the same never-ending rooting story : flashing & losing warranty or waiting for a rooting exploit that may never be found & keeping warranty alive.
May I ask how 4.0.4 comes to our tabs ? Is it regular OTA or alternative ROM flashing ? I'm on stock 4.0.3, rooted but not unlocked and have no signs of an OTA update coming.
4.0.4 is available from kies only [p3100] No OTA update
