[Q] Any one got a Verizon OTA 2 nights ago? - Motorola Droid Bionic

I got an OTA on Friday night or Saturday morning. Didn't notice any changes.
Next day, I realized I lost root. TiB says root access is denied. SuperUser is still installed, so that's not the problem. It's not even ASKING any more.
I tried running pSouza's one-click root, it failed in the third step. This was using 1.06 off Rootzwiki. I went to PSouza4's website and downloaded 1.07, and tried it again. Same thing.
Strangely my system (about phone) still says 5.5.893 (baseband CDMA_N_03.1c.57R ltdec_u_05.15.01), build number 5.5.1_84_DBN-21 so somehow I never got the 901 update. It stills says I'm on 2.3.4, but the exploit no longer works.
Any ideas?

If superuser is still installed can you go into it and check root status? Does this happen with every root app? Could you have maybe accidently denied TiB at the prompt or set Superuser to automatically deny apps? Try running rootchecker.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck

I went into SuperUser and it says TiB is still allowed. But when I run TiB it says root was denied.
Root Checker confirms: no root.
I tried 43V3R root and that failed too.

Confirmed that PSouza4's one click root, 43V3R root don't work on this latest OTA I got 2 nights ago.
If someone can tell me what to grab I can do ADB dumps or whatever's needed.

I had that happen to me as well. Turns out for me, that on .893, the automatic script failed. Doing it using the manual guide here in the dev forum did work.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App

Try going into super user settings and check for an update for the binary..an outdated binary can cause the root being denied
/Droid3

You can root 5.5.893 with this. Uses the oldschool zergrush.

Thanks for the reminder. The oldschool zergrush worked.

[How To] Temp Root

I take no credit for this, but I tried this out and was able to achieve temp-root.
Just though I'd post it till someone is able to figure out perm root. All thanks should go to Revolutionary
Hello!
We would like to announce the public availability of the root exploit we use in Revolutionary, named zergRush.
This local root exploit should be Android-wide, across Froyo (2.2) and Gingerbread (2.3). However, this will not work on Android Honeycomb and up (3.0+).
Simultaneously, we're also releasing source code for this root exploit through our github.
The binary is available from here: zergRush binary.
The exploit source is available here: Revolutionary GitHub.
Usage:
You will need adb shell to execute this exploit. We need shell permissions.
Push the binary onto /data/local/ and execute these commands in a shell:
Code:
$ chmod 755 /data/local/zergRush
$ /data/local/zergRush
The resulting output should look something like this:

Get one of the bloatware freezers from the Market after you have temproot and SU put on the phone than you can freeze the bloatware rather than out right removing them.. The Reason to freeze them first is in case they cause FC's for some unknown reason you can unfreeze them or just reboot the phone. I mean once we have full root and all that stuff and can backup the Stock OS than removing the Apps should be no issue as you can just restore your backup but until then I would suggest doing the Freeze method. I hope HTC Left the bootloader unlocked, that would be nice for a change. Although knowing AT&T they probably made them Lock it. Also awesome to see that we already got our own spot for our awesome device phone. Looking forward to some good Roms.

If nobody gets around to it before I get my phone in the mail, I'll see if I can put one together. A step-by-step would probably help a lot of people. The rooting method seems a lot like what I used on my Incredible S (actually, easier, since the IncS had a locked bootloader that couldn't be unlocked at htcdev.com!). Unfortunately, I ordered mine online so I could get the discount and get the white version, so I have to wait for them to ship it to me.
I tried to unlock my Vivid at the htcdev site and unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. Maybe we'll have to wait a bit until it's supported.

Love this Phone, I am going to wait for Root
I am having issues getting to Fastboot. Keeps saying win whatever not installed even though I got look in platform-tools and its sitting right there. Hmm I haven't updated in awhile, could that be it? Yea wow I didn't realize how far behind until I started update holy god lol that's what I get for not updating it within the past 3-4 months.

Not sure if others have tried, but I'm getting the dreaded CID not allowed (basically means carrier not allowing it) error...might just have to wait for someone to figure out the exploit to get it unlocked for perm-root
Either that or wait for HTC to come out for an actual Unlock for the device.
CID locked
Same for me. Oh, well.
Standing by...
I can't seem do get it to work, I must be doing something wrong.
I get through all the steps, get the root shell (#), and the ID comes back as 0 (root). That's all good.
I then install Superuser in the Market, but none of the apps I try to use can seem to get root access. They can't find an SU binary. Why would superuser install and run but there be no su binary? Any ideas on what to do?

[Q] How to root P970 Gingerbread V20N

I made this thread in order to discuss possibilities of how to root the latest software for our phone. It's about v20N mainly. Let's try to keep this one clean and root our phone
You can already find a procedure for V20B here: Root V20b
FIND ROOT FOR V20n HERE Root V20N
Methods tried and fail:
http://www.unlockroot.com/? not clear yet...

Gingerbreak different Versions
SuperOneClick 2.3.3
Blackjack 1.2.0
adb push wont work for me at least...
SoC
z4root
vipermod
thrill
doomlord all version
androidnerds.net/2011/10/08/lg-esteem-oneclickroot-now-ready/
Gingersnap Root Itility tells me it succeeded, but root still aint present...
adding that ratc exploit
Working so far:
adb install *.apk
According to Redpik: "Superoneclick 2.3.3 was able to copy busybox into /system/tmp but couldn't find the glitch."
Local rooting, since some apps like rootchecker show our phone is rooted
As it seems, Unlockroot also works for some with v20n, maybe even others, if they disable the LGE Modem.
I somehow managed to root it by aproxymately doing this:
Enable debugging mode
Disable LGE Modem
Plug in USB cable
open UnlockRoot
click root
REBOOT and DONE!
Code:
-edited-, cause it didnt work with the method posted before.
Kill adb server
Starting adb server...
Get online devices
Try LGE shell rooting...
push file to device : rootutility
chmod file 755 rootutility
Restarting debug mode...
Waiting for debug mode...
push file to device : busybox
push file to device : su
chmod file 755 busybox
push file to device : Superuser.apk
Rooting, please wait...
Root Succeed!
Root finished!
Noone could reproduce the root till now, but I'll keep on trying.
It somehow worked and I made a nandroid of this. Link below...
How to flash it:
1. unzip the file
2. Take the whole folder and put it on ur SD card under sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
3. You need a rooted phone where you can access recovery by either using a app like RomManager or by adb shell via: adb reboot recovery (thnx to gabwerkz, since I didnt know)
4. reboot to recovery either via command or APP
5. choose backup and restore
6. choose restore
7. choose the foldername u just put onto ur SD card
alternatively (PRO USERS ONLY)
go till step 5
and then choose whatever you wanna have
Thats it so far. Maybe a MOD can take this thread and moderate it, since I hardly have time (but if possible also gimme right to edit it).
You also will find the solution in this post, as soon as any1 made it

Seems like I made it

I have a Prime and my wife has the ThinkPad. I would say that between the two, the ThinkPad can take the beating for sure and I'm definitely jealous of the stylus, however I would love to keep what I have and just add the stylus ability. Either way, I would definitely agree that the ThinkPad is still a kick-ass tablet.
Congrats on the root all.

Not sure but it appears that you can't have your tablet encrypted and get root. Mine is encrypted and during the process it just hangs after the first time you press a key to continue. Tried several times and at one point gave it an hour but nothing.
That being said, I did a factory default and was able to get root no problem. I was also able to encrypt it again after and I still have root. My tablet finally has full potential.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!
I removed basically all of the Lenovo apps by brute force and other than having to reboot the tablet twice due to some force close loops that occurred when deleting certain apps, everything went fine.
Then I started ****ing around with SystemUI.apk, and now I'm missing the bottom bar...

Did you manage to fix everything? I can send you my unedited SystemUI.apk if you would like so that you can replace your broken one.

Root [easiest way] 100% safe

First of all download the required file[http://www.mediafire.com/?8b1lt61sg3i6tu5]
You might need to install the USB Drivers for this, you can try by using the Drivers Installation (Located inside the zip file) or you can download Samsung Kies that contains the USB Drivers
You will also need to activate the Debugging on your Device, its easy
Open the setting menu, select the applications and the Development
Activate the USB Debugging and wait for the drivers to be installed
Wait for the drivers to install
Ok, good
Extract the zip file and open the folder
Double click the “root” and wait for the procedure
Done!
TIPS:
Inside the zip there is also some other programs
- shell : access the root shell of the device
- logcat: debug the device
- recovery: reboot into the recovery of the device

Hi, thanks for tour help,
My device is Android 2.3.6, updated with kies, I'm trying to flash a cm 9.1 ROM, but I can't acquire root or flash anything.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
You don't need root to flash cm9/10/11
Just flash a kernel that has cwm recovery.
Then use cwm to flash cm ROM.

Are you using a Windows computer? If so, Windows 7 or 8?
Windows 8 is known to have issues with the drivers for the HTC First (my phone). Switching to a Windows 7 pc may solve your issue.
Also, did your tablet connect to your pc to transfer files before you tried to flash? If yes, this could rule out the USB cable and connection, as well as the drivers.

I run win7 x64, no I didn't transfer anything before flashing, but, to try rooting I successfully transfered an apk on my device. (But after and before I attempted flashing in some ways).
I think that is due to a writing permission problem because while flashing I got a "failed to write error"..... I thought that I have to be root to flash something. Otherwise is there a way to flash using only the official "download mode"?

i updated my Tab following the videos this guy has made on going from 2.3.3 to 2.3.6 and then from 2.3.6 to 4.1.2.................
look in the describtion , there is a link to rooting 2.3.6 before you can flash 4.1.2 , maybe you can use it....

What happens if you try to connect the tab to the PC with Odin opened?
Solved!!!
Thank you at all, i made a mistake while connecting the device:
i pressed Volume UP + Volume DOWN + Power and then started the procedure with odin. THE RIGHT WAY IS: Power + Volume DOWN, and THEN started Odin and flash.
Thank you very much!!!!
