sorry for double post, pc problem
is superuser installed? if not get it from the market. Try some othe root apps (set cpu etc or http://www.talkandroid.com/android-...391-how-can-i-tell-if-i-have-root-access.html You are responsible if you brick it though
Yes superuser is installed but still get error says "This application requires superuser(root) to function" when i run the patch...any ideas?

There must be another exploit in the package - try it (in my case psneuter was killed by AV guard immediately after unzipping package, so I had to use a second one).

Well i dont the piece with me anymore so i cant test but just need to know, do i have to unlock the bootloader if i want to flash stock rom with ODIN?
May sound crazy but I thought my root didn't take using one click. No apps that require root would work. All I did was reboot my tab and everything was fine. Took me a few hrs but a simple reboot did the trick.

[TOOL] Perma-Temp-Root Solution [Mac/Linux/Windows]

Remember, This is still a Temp Root & any Changes made will be Rest back to stock on a Reboot
Its stable & works 100%
I personally have not lost root with this method in over 48 hours.
Zero com.noshufou.android.su crashes.
Before Using!!
HTC Sync Must be Turned OFF
Put the Phone into Charge Mode only ( Not Disk Drive )
USB Debugging Must be Turned on
Restart your phone!
Lastly, if you're getting com.noshufou.android.su force close errors
Uninstall superuser prior to running scripts.​
If you Lose Root, all you have to do is open Terminal Emulator & type fixsu
No More Rebooting & running the exploit again for R/W on system to get Root back in place!​
Q. Is this permanent?
A. no, it's a temp root method..
Q. Will I lose SU Access at some point while running the OS?
A. You might, but open terminal and type fixsu to get root back.
Q. What about apps that need a reboot to use superuser?
A. Use Fast Reboot form the market for app that need a reboot.
Q. Can I push & remove items to system and will it work?
A. Yes, but all changes are reset on a reboot.

Looks interesting, but my method of using a bind mount from /data/local/bin to /system/xbin (apparently I could have used /vendor/bin instead) doesn't loose root after any time unless you reboot.
Bind mounts stay in memory, and aren't like symlinks that get flushed away when the system tries to re-read the filesystem, hence why I suggest using it rather than symlinks.
The bind mount eliminates the need for a 'fixsu' script at all, since there's no links that could potentially dissolve.
With that said, nice work!

I haven't lost root in going on ~60 hours, as as a newbie here, you definitely know far more than I do!
As you'll see in the fixsu, I redundantly copy su from /vendor/bin
to /system/xbin/ from which I hardlink (as you'd know is virtually the same as bind mounting in this case) to /system/bin
I added the fixsu, as a last resort, in case the something would dissolve, but unless someone really fudges something up, the fixsu shouldn't be needed
As my programming teacher once told me: the code doesn't need to be pretty as long as it works.
And through that philosophy I've used a lot of redundancies, that may or may not need to be there,
but they'll definitely keep anyone from having any sort of issues using the scripts!
P.S. Thank you :]
Thanks, I'll try this out and report back.

The rm failed for /system/xbin/su, No such file or directory is not actually an error, that's my fault. In my original script, I try to remove that file in case it exists, but if it doesn't exist, it'll just do nothing. So there's no worries there!

You can change the opening line in the script to the direct path to the folder 'resources' and you won't have any issues.

I don't own a Windows box, an had to write the Windows bat file

I'm sure I did mess up the syntax, an probably left some command that isn't windows relavent at the end of the script.
No worries, you've got root, and shouldn't loose it.

I tried to pipe all errors out to null, as I took a mash up of your code, my code, and and another guys code, and left a lot of "in case it exists" type of lines in the code, to make sure no one would have any issues.
Apparently I didn't pipe it all to null well enough
The mac/linux version you only see 'starting' and 'finished' haha

fudged that up too...

[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...
unlockroot (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
here is the link to a complete NANDROID BACKUP
http://www.multiupload.com/ZGYX5J4AG1
ITS rooted V20N GB software for p970.
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP! UNPACK IT AND FOLLOW GUIDE ABOVE!
IF you want a flashable zip, pls go to Redy's thread, he repacked and added some tweaks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441901
Big thanks to Redy!!
Or use Zeus ROM by huexxx: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1454274
DO A FACTORY RESET AFTER FLASHING, WILL FIX SOME PROBLEMS!
Mick2K suggested me to post, that you should install busybox after the procedure and update su binaries, so that everything works fine.

This may be a long shot as I am not sure how the exploits work but...
It seems one issue is with not be able to set read/write to the systems folder.
I have been unable to mount the systems folder as writable. I think this is where the fundamental issues seem to be.
Superoneclick 2.3.3 was able to copy busybox into /system/tmp but couldn't find the glitch.

The other thread was removed for various reasons (the thread was not by myself but another Senior Member). But here goes again, here are some ground guidelines I'd like to mention so no one ruins their devices.
Do NOT flash anything in AP Fastboot to try to root. On our locked bootloader devices, it just means having to re-flash FXZ files (which we don't have, or root to make our own copies), and a bunch of other messes. This includes custom recovery images (recovery.img), kernels (boot.img), system (system.img), or whatever crazy schemes that were made up before. The help was a good gesture, but I want to make sure no one can be bricked in the process.
Do NOT try Odin... that's for Samsung devices.
On the stock firmware that comes with the Atrix HD on launch, the kernel is patched from all exploits involving ~/data/local/ that we know of so far... This covers almost all known ICS root exploits out there, including RazrsEdge by Dan Rosenberg.
Here is my thread so far from droidrzr.com that I am now bringing over here for a better, saner, discussion with more invidivuals (obviously not many Atrix HD owners on a Droid Razr website).
No known root access yet for the Atrix HD as of 7/30/2012.
10-16-2012 Not anymore!
Keep this in mind! DroidRZR.com, XDA-Developers.com, and myself at not responsible for anything you do to your phone or anything that happens as a result of you messing with your phone or listening to posts or users on this forum. Always be careful when you flash
WARNING: Since there is no FXZ files yet there is no going back to the original firmware if you flash this, chance of being off the OTA path, etc.
​
When trying these should all be true:
Phone is plugged into a Windows computer (XP and higher) and booted normally (where you can open apps, email, text, etc.)
^^^Using a standard USB cable, preferably the one that came with your device. NOT a factory-style modified cable.
Phone's USB mode (in the pulldown notification menu) is set to MTP and/or Camera mode, but NOT USB Mass Storage.
Settings > Developer Options > USB Debugging enabled.
Latest Motorola USB Drivers are installed. 64 bit for 64 bit system, 32 bit for 32 bit system. ---To check go to Start, right-click on Computer, and hit properties. Next to GB of RAM it will say. System Version--

Nice initiative mattlgroff. I'll be following this!
Thanks
+1
Just got an Atrix HD.
Moving over from an Inspire 4G with ICS and Jellytime mods.
Also looking forward to development of a ROOT solution for the AHD.
Got a root tool from the http://bbs.gfan.com forums for the XT928, they were having issues with other root exploits and needed a new one. From the looks of the code I modified into english and into one folder from Iopda's root tool, this is just going to be another bust. Worth a shot anyway, no risk to ones phones.
Same settings as normal, USB Debugging Enabled + MTP Mode for USB.
I will be testing 'round the clock when I receive my Atrix HD in the mail in a few days (August 3rd or 4th).

I am trying to copy the file, but it tells me permission denied. I tried to change the permissions of the file to 777 but it just defaults back to rwxr-x--- (750). How can I copy it for you? I am using a program called Android Commander to explore the root files. Sorry if my question is ignorant/dumb. I am new to the development side of Android, but I am trying to catch on and be of help.

Yes, files are there. But seems there's something wrong with busybox.
This is the patch it's using
/system/bin/sh
It'll never find su in there.
Maybe razr busybox file?

Keeps failing to open. Windows doesnt recognize the file. Linux has no MTP support that I've been able to find, so I can't open the root folder there. And trying to open it in the text reader from the phone directly fails as well and it won't let me copy it to the sd card, I imagine because of it's permissions which will not change.. What else can I try?

My only other thought would be to "adb pull init.rc C:\Pull" like you would a system pull, even then not really sure.

When you do a command do not just do "adb" do the whole line as shown in code.
Code:
adb install App.apk
Not:

Permission of file needs to be changed to be able to move it, but it won't let me do it without SU.
So, the debug file from earlier.. do you think that could be monitoring the system and changes we are trying to make and it's keeping them from happening? It seems if we can edit that file, we would just have to change true to false and it would disable it.. Maybe I'm on the wrong path though.
Also, tried test 2. Same result.

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!!!!
