[Q] Problem with Root after Stock ICS RUU update - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

I'm having issues getting the Superuser app to grant root to root apps.
The superuser apk is installed but isn't functioning.
Here's what I did. I was coming from pirateghost's CWM root ROM which was built off the stock developer's ICS OTA update (see my signature). I decided to start over since the sync icon would not go away from the notification tab. I know this is a minor issue but it was very annoying staring at it every time I used the phone.
I did the following:
1) Installed Wildchild's recovery using fastboot
2) Wiped all the data from the phone using wildchild's recovery
3) Locked the bootloader
4) Installed the ATT Stock RUU
5) Unlocked the bootloader
6) Reinstalled wildchild's recovery using fastboot
7) Installed the Superuser apk using wildchild's recovery
Everything is working fine and I don't have the sync icon stuck in the notification tab, but now I can't get any root application to be granted root access. The system just times out when the app is requesting root.
I'm guessing that Wildchild's recovery root is not compatible with the stock ICS release, but is this true? I haven't used the vivid all in one kit because it appears to be using the same method to install root. Everytime you install root it blows away all the data on the phone and makes you start from fresh, so I'm reluctant to try anything unless I'm certain it will work.
Any suggestions from the experts?

Did you look at the last post in the superguide? WC made a post to make rooting easier. Also a video in there as well.

Yes, this is exactly what I did to the "T", just as in his video. SU is installed on my device but it doesn't grant any privileges to any root apps. I've been digging around searching for answers for about 3 hours and have found many people posting about the same issue but no fix.

3.07 is the latest version of su...redo it with unguarded version see if that works...the rom i used was unrooted and all stock

I saw that and was wondering what "engineering Unguarded superuser" was but didn't know. I guess it's worth a try at this point.

FYI, I used the "Install eng (unguarded) su" and all it did was uninstall the Superuser apk.
Now the root apps respond with a different message when they request root. They don't see the SU app and reply with this statement, before they would hang while they requested SU access.
I'll wait until WC figures out what is going on or just download his ROM.
Are there any known bugs with his ROM?

[email protected] rooting....if going through trouble of unlocking bootloader and flashing a recovery....why not just flash a stock custom rom?....This make no [email protected] do this....Im the first to like completely stock builds,as thats what i use personally...but i cannot stand the at&t bloatware....Main problem with trying to root a stock build is the root access to kernel config....ill upload a stock rooted kernel, if having issues with root after using the recovery you need to install busybox from provided link below.
or flash the boot.img provided.
From original [email protected] guide
- ONCE BOOTED, if you have titanium backup installed but it says there isn't root or busybox isn't installed, download a free app from the market called BUSYBOX INSTALLER. Run this program and proceed in installing busybox. After that, try titanium backup again and it should work.

I had pirateghost's rooted ICS ROM installed but had the sync notification issue. That's why I decided to go back to the stock RUU. I've always been a stock kind of person. I don't know why, but I've always gone back to stock with my phones then rooted it and debloated it myself.
I'm downloading your ROM right now! Since I already have your recovery installed I'm sure this will be a breeze. Thanks!

I tried using the WCX recovery to install su and I now have super user as one of the apps but Titanium backup could not acquire root privileges.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for helping Mega.
I tied installing busybox installer but it says no root access.
Is the stock rooted kernel being referred to boot.zip?
What's the safest way to flash this?

The fastboot flash boot boot.img command is the safest.

I successfully flashed the boot.img file above.
Titanium backup and busybox installer both say no root access.
No apps in superuser.
I really want to get your ROM installed, just this root issue which is stopping me!

Something else is going on then, my rom has nothing to do with this....the roms i release are already rooted and debloated stock builds

Samsat, so let's see what you have done so far:
flashed boot.img
flashed recovery
what about the rom? What did you do with that? Was it a zip file from WC's site?

I would say if you want root, the best thing to do is install one of Wild Child's roms. Once you install it, you will have root. He has an att build just like the att ruu but without the bloat.
http://www.wcxxperia-nce.com/index.php
This is his site. You have to register to see the vivid forum. Also, make sure to read the rules before installing his rom.

Exact process i did and it is rooted with titanium back up working...so flashing from wcxrecovery does work.
Testing procedure:
1 Flashed fastboot oem relock...success
2 Flashed PH39IMG.zip
3 Said Update was complete
4 Phone rebooted
5 My custom ROM was still present
6 Flashed PH39IMG.zip again
7 My custom ROM was still present
8 Attempted running RUU,Failed
9 Entered fastboot via Hboot menu
10 Re ran ruu,ROM updated completely.
11 Ran bootloader unlock command
12 Flashed wcx recovery (provided)
13 Flashed rooted kernel (provided)
14 Booted ROM,fully loaded
15 Rebooted into recovery
16 Installed superuser and su
17 Signed into Market
18 installed stericson Busybox
19 Installed titanium Backup
20 Succesfully rooted with stock att rom
21 Reboot phone after doing said process above Perm root achieved

Thanks WC. I must have been doing the same while you were posting this!
All went according to plan. I now have a rooted phone with unbloated ICS kernel, WCX recovery etc. etc.

Thanks WC, This is great

Why did I lose root? Please help!

First off I would like to thank everyone on this amazing site for all the advice, guides and tutorials.
I unlocked my nexus bootloader and flashed a couple different roms. I really like the rom manager so I've used that to download roms and then flash them using that app.
When I downloaded the stock version of 91and flashed it, the phone no longer seemed to have root or clockwork recovery but my bootloader was still unlocked. When I downloaded rom manager, it could not get super user permissions, this being useless in flashing a backup or new rom. So I used universal one click root to gain root access and then rom manager was able to flash a backup.
I know this may be a dumb question but hope someone could explain to me why I needed to re-root and why I lost clockwork recovery...?
Thanks for the help in advance.

Right theres your problem. stock roms dont have root built in you have to root them again. unless you download a prerooted stock rom. hope this helps.

Yep this seems to be your problem. If you're wanting stock with the basic add-ons then the first link in this thread is your answer: Link.
Thanks very much. That does make sense. I thought unlocked bootloader meant I was rooted regardless of rom! I'm in way over my head lol. Looking forward to learning more...thanks for the new rom link as well

The advantage of unlocking your bootloader means you can flash a custom recovery from Fastboot mode, without having to "root" the ROM. Next time this happens you can just boot into fastboot and flash clockwork from there like this:
fastboot flash recovery PATHTO\RECOVERYFILENAME.img
so say you download clockwork and save it to c:\sdk\fastboot named recovery.img from a command prompt you enter the following
cd \sdk\fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
once it is done flashing you can do this
fastboot reboot recovery
and that should take you into clockwork where you can flash your favorite ROM (or restore a backup).
Thanks for the help. I will be sure to try that method out next time. Very helpful.

[Q] flashing custom recovery - frustrated!

Hi,
Upgraded to 2.3.3 and lost root.
Bored of mucking about with oneclick etc, I unlocked the bootloader. Easy(ish), cool!
Trying to flash amon ra with fastboot, everything goes well (appears as though it's flashed). But when I re-boot, it isn't there!
Padlock showing - so bootloader unlocked.
Nexus drivers installed, device showing with "fastboot devices".
Trying to flash amon ra 2.2.1.
Any suggestions?
Ta!

When you boot a stock rom it wipes custom recoverys and puts the stock one back.

Thanks for your reply.
I've spent (literally) all day searching the forum (I'm in the uk - so hours and hours). There's so much, and some of it contradictory.
Ok, so I can't put a rom on without a custom recovery, but I can't put a custom recovery on because the stock rom wipes it?
I don't actually want a custom rom, simply a rooted stock phone. Which I have had previously.
Cheers! (driven to booze!)

Yes, that's what I've been doing. There's a mistake in that part of the faq:
Faq states at the end "reboot recovery"
Should be "reboot-bootloader"
That works, but as soon as I then reboot into 2.3.3 - it wipes the custom recovery (which is why I'm in the q + a).
The other problem I'm having is that my phone doesn't appear rooted from within the o/s (apps that require root don't work), but the padlock is there ans the bootloader is unlocked. I can install su and busybox installer from the market, but neither work.
Back to the beer!
Andy
I can't explain all in detail while on my phone.
Do this. Grab a preroooted stock rom from the dev section and put it on SD card.
Boot into fastboot and flash the custom recovery.
Then load up that recovery without booting up the os.
Flash the rom you downloaded.
There are other ways to fix your issue but this is probably the simplest for you.

I had (mistakenly) thought that unlocking the bootloader, then installing busybox and su from the market gave me a rooted phone.

Guide fixed. I've uploaded and linked the file that removes the stock recovery restoring files from the stock ROM.
You can repeat the guide and include the new part - it should prevent stock recovery from being restored on reboot.

[Q] How to root nexus one 2.3.6 with locked boatloder

Hi guys
Can any one tell me how to root nexus one 2.3.6 ,i have locked boatloader.

Try SuperOneClick

Use this. I just rooted my stock 2.3.6 nexus using this method. Takes less then a minute once everything is downloaded. Just make sure to extract all the files into the same location as the adb.exe file. Usually its in android/platform-tools.
Good luck and let us know if you have any questions.
BTW it does not unlock you bootloader either!

You're good to go. Just install a custom recovery
CWM or Amon Ra, you can install them via Rom Manger.
hi
I tried to install custom ROM but when phone reboot it stuck on "triangle android" seems first i have to unlock my boatloader.
Can you post me link..
It means that you didn't flash the file that removes stock recovery reinstaller - and stock recovery is reinstalled on stock ROM boot.
Reboot back to ROM, root again, this time when you reboot to recovery first time, flash the file. It's found in Nexus One Wiki, section "Recovery".

Its not at all necessary to unlock the bootloader. Did u install custom recovery before flashing a custom rom? I think u skipped that step.
Simple and best way for starters like us is to
1.root via super one click root
2. Install rom manager from market and wid the help of that, flash clockworkmod(cwm) recovery.
3. Install Titanium backup from market and do a backup up of ur apps.
4. Choose the correct rom of ur choice by reading the OP and the thread.
5. Download it and install it via rom manager.
6. Before that back up your current rom and wipe the system,cache,dalvik cache.
Thats it, u r good to go. :thumbup:
This is how i did n doing good
PS: Am just a newbie, so if there's any mistakes in my steps pls correct me.

hboot and boot.img are two different things. No rom will touch hboot. Only way to change your hboot is via RUU or OTA, or to s-off and flash in RUU mode.
All roms include a kernel, usually the stock kernel. That will overwrite whatever you had there before but you should still wipe /data.

Alright, basically what I did today is I wiped every single partition I had access to, so everything but boot and recovery. installed maximus HD 13, installed faux kernel, installed faux kernel camera fix. Maximus installs supersu by default, I opened it up and I got the stupid no binary error. So I went back to recovery and attempted SuperSu 1.65 from zip, still the same problem. Please note that I did all this BECAUSE of my issues with root, funny how after nuking the whole phone I still have the same problem. I've google extensively, and pretty much the only advice I've found involves either rooting from recovery or changing something in SuperSu settings, which I CAN'T ACCESS because the app closes right after the error prompt pops up.
I'm a few desperate attempts short of attempting an exorcism...

I have not used Maximus, so maybe you should move over to that thread. I had the same issues with ARHD, but flashing SuperSU in recovery after the rom flash took care of it. In all likelihood, you're not the only Maximus user to deal with this, so the answer may be over there.

So I reformatted the whole phone, installed Rom, then faux123 kernel, then SuperSu. Same issue. No binaries. I can only conclude that installing the kernel causes the issue.

Just finished reinstalling ROM for fourth time today, going to check SuperSu works, go back to recovery, make a nandroid backup and perhaps try ElementalX Is there a kernel control app for it ?

I only had to flash SuperSU once. I use TricksterMod.
I've experienced this problem on two different ROMs (different variations of the same problem, actually). In both cases, flashing the same SuperSU .zip fixed it. Link here.

That's odd. Are you sure you're flashing the right kernel? I had no such problems with the 4.3 version of ElementalX.
