This little gem of a phone is a tough little thing to custom install apps on, but that didn't stop the Coburn from being able to get busybox installed.
Therefore, introducing Busybox for your HTC Click/Tattoo!
FOLLOW THIS TUTORIAL CAREFULLY. This guide may brick or NOT brick your Tattoo (most likely the latter), however I cannot assure you that it's 100% fail proof. I have installed it successfully. IN OTHER WORDS: THIS IS NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED! IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT 'FLASH','ADB' OR 'HACK' MEANS, PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE.
Requirements:
1 HTC Tattoo (The Victim)
1 MS Windows Powered Computer (I used Win7 64Bit)
1 HTC Tattoo -> USB Cable (Included with phone... Well, it was in the box).
Download the package attached to this post. Extract all files to a directory like C:\BUSYCLICK . (Actually, please extract them there).
Installation
Connect your Tattoo to your phone, make sure USB Debugging is enabled (Settings -> Applications -> Development) and sit back. Windows should say "New Hardware! OMG!" and ask "What is this piece of tech?" (aka New Hardware Install Wizard). On XP, allow to search Windows Update. On Vista/7, I'm going to have to get back to you on that. The installed driver will be like "HTC Dream blah blah blah ADB Interface" or something. Odd why it says it's a HTC Dream...
Anyway, go to the folder where you extracted the files, and run the Installation.bat file. It's the one that says "Installation" With the cogs icon.
You'll get a DOS Prompt and some text, PAY ATTENTION! My installer will hold your hand and explain what's happening. Should any errors occur, you may be out of space on your Tattoo's internal memory or something. If you do get errors, please post them here! I'll try to fix them for you guys and girls.
Post-install tasks
When complete, run the TestBusybox.bat script in the same folder where you extracted the BusyBox files, and you should get some output. If not, busybox failed to install... Let me know what the error is and I'll try to fix it.
Notes:
You can use the busybox commands in /data/local/bin from "adb shell" or a terminal emulator on the phone itself... /data/local/bin/sh DOES NOT work from adb shell, I don't know why. It will work using a terminal emulator. Try "/data/local/bin/free" and such for some memory read outs, etc, etc.
Feel free to love/like/hate/kill/shoot my work, you can expect to see ROMs and the like in the near future as I love hacking devices.
Cheers,
Coburn64
Ok busybox installed normally...
Do i have root acces with busybox now? I dont see su...
C:\Busybox>adb shell /data/local/busybox ls /data
ls: can't open '/data': Permission denied
I do see /data/local and under tho... including ../bin and ../rights but dont see any use of it...
Coburn Hi, this is a step closer to being root
can be root in busybox?
chmod command does?
thx
Code:
benno.id.au/blog/2007/11/14/android-busybox
chmod command is useless without su...If only su worked
Installed and worked fine, can run busybox but:
it runs with shell privileges
setting setuid bit doesn't solve, because I can chown to root
Do I miss something?
Thanks Really appreciate your work!
Do you have to install the new RUU Click HTC WWE 1.63.405.1 WWE test signed NoDriver first?

I asked the chmod without adb, or if they could use the chmod as root from the busibox console

All this does is allows you to run more commands from the shell in Android, whereas the standard shell doesn't have many commands built-in. Could be used in conjuction with a root hack.
One step more, but nothing to do with root
I'm starting to believe that Click will never have a root method working because its underused compared with other android devices

I was able to install Busybox on my phone successfully. But the problem is I don't know what it's for. Would anyone be kind enough to post a link or a tutorial for this? Thanks.

Busybox just allows you to use more features at the adb shell command line. So, yeah. Heh.
You lost me at 'adb shell command line'. Is that some command line provided by the Android SDK?

Sorry if I lost you. Let me sum it up: It's a 'feature pack' for Android Developers, which could be used in conjunction with rooting tools.

That code is old, and apparently won't work. It won't compile either, Paul from Modaco tried it and it just spat the dummy and gave a make error.

That's the code for the old asroot exploit (used in the Hero IIRC). It's been patched in August/09 so it won't affect the kernel in stock Tattoos.
Yeah, that's what I was getting at - the exploit is too old.
We need to either:
1) Get a S-OFF bootloader
2) Find another working root exploit
3) Dig around in the test ROM and extract the SU binary out of that sucker and put it in /data/local on the working ROM.
I think I can do the latter.
I'm rooted and am trying to mount the system to remove bloatware apps... However everytime Titanium Backup removes it and I reboot it's still there...
Anyone have any ideas?
System is protected: you can't modify it while the phone is booted. You'll have to make a zip or whatever to delete it in recovery.
You have to be kidding me...
I've spent all day long trying to root this bastard phone and that didn't work then I managed it and now I can't disable, remove any apps ?
So much for HTC being dev friendly

It seriously took you all day to root? What went wrong?
Did you try just freezing the app instead?

So you can no longer go into ES explorer, mount root/system go to system > apps and delete whatever you want ?

The recovery flashed but wouldnt boot , managed to get round it when i discovered POB with his superboot Thank god for the desire C
Then i realised that i couldnt flash anything because I manged to install 6.0.2.8 as a boot img, and 6.0.3.0 as a proper recovery.
Then i didnt have any files on the device to flash boohoo so i managed to get ADB sideload working through the AIO One Toolkit... And managed to flash AHRD finally getting a working device,
As you see Im a seasoned vet at these things but the HTC One has been the first device that has stumped me....
----------------------
The apps issue is not unkwown for HTC however they havent done this for a while.... Back with the G2 they did exactly the same thing and yes ive frozen them but there should be away to remove system apps for us through root.... But i cant remember how, Throwing it into ADB Shell and requesting SU along with a Remount works fine but still would like to remove the apps.
Im also looking for someone with a locked phone... (Sim Locked) i have a theory and it worked on the Desire C Anyone wanna help?

Delete the apps with titanium and power off the phone. Don't do a restart.
Already tried that ^_^
You need to flash a custom kernel with a modified ramdisk to disable system protection Without doing that you're like deleting an app on windows with deepfreeze on it
Is that the only solution?
There are so many bloated useless and intrusive (cr)apps on this phone it's unbelievable.
Other solution is boot in recovery and delete it there. Either thru adb while in recovery mode, flashable zip or through file manager(if you're using TWRP). Other than that nope
Hmmm I'm thinking adb through recovery here but how do I got about doing this?

read up on adb commands...
or use the zip I attached and edit line 18 in this format with the apps you want to get rid of, use a file explorer to get the proper names.
make a backup first in case you mess up something
Code:
delete("/system/app/xxxxx.apk", "/system/app/xxxx.odex", "/data/app/xxxxx.apk");
The best way to remove apps in recovery is through adb:
Code:
adb shell
sysrw
rm /system/app/abc.apk
the simple way is ROM CLEANER, but isn't available yet for the One.

I dont have a One, and dont plan on having one (ever, thanks to this thread! I think I'll stick to Sony, they have instructions to unlocking bootloader on their official website)
BUT, if the system is locked, it should be locked trough ADB too, so I guess what I'd try is install busybox, custom recovery, go into recovery, connected it to the PC (or a mac, but since we're on no-apple forum, I'll assume PC), mounting system there and doing your thing.
You can install busybox and custom recovery right?
Edit: never mind, I should really learn to read. Sometimes I think I'm dyslexic a little, just for words, not letters.
I did not see the 'recovery' part mentioned.
Anywho, mounting system is what you forgot, so at least I said something helpful

All Wonderful Ideas folks, however i had a go at this last night, it was a fricking nightmare even mounting ADB through recovery
Hello everyone, I hope one of you can help me as I didn't really find any solution on the internet.
I got a Huawei Ascend P7 L10 and I absolutely love it, but I run into a problem every time that I try to install the Xposed framework on my device. The installer tells me that it "could not copy app_process to /system/bin"
I've looked a bit on the internet and found that it might be because of a permission problem within the /system folder but when I tried to change them my phone got stuck on the boot logo and I had to flash the ROM again to use my phone.
Does someone know how to solve that problem?
I'm of course on android 4.4.2 and tried different version of Xposed Installer 2.6 and 2.7) but nothing changed.
Thanks for the help.
Edit : I've also tried version 2.5 and both the automatic and manual flash of the installer, but couldn't get any of both working it always finished by a big "FAIL" written on the recovery screen.
Do you have root access?
I heard many problems with xposed on the p7 and personally think that it must be something with a whole device...

Hello I do have root access (and I have all permissions on the /system/bin folder (at least I should have as I did chmod 777 /system/bin))
Can you post a logcat? You can try flashing it via the recovery first (you need to have a custom recovery, I'm guessing you do not, which is why the recovery installation failed when you tried it).

EDIT :
Problem solved, for the people that have the same problem than me, here is the solution :
Download BusyBox (playstore)
Download Terminal emulator
Then type this :
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cd system
lsattr
chattr -R -i *
rm –f /system/set_immutable.list

this will give you full access and you should be able to install Xposed framework (at least that worked for me) - Don't forget to disable the resource hooks in the settings panel as the numbers will be in green but it would still mark Xposed as uninstalled.

Hello there, I just rooted my Z3C 5803 phone with the exploit founded yesterday (.93 FW) and first thing I did was to install Titanium Backup because there were a lot of programs I wanted to remove for good from this device and also wanted to integrate newer versions into the Rom. Whenever I try to integrate, for example, a newer YouTube, Google Chrome, Google Play Store version into the Rom, TB seems to keep trying and trying forever.
Checking into the TB FAQ i found this:
"14. I tried to integrate system app updates or to convert user apps to system apps but it didn’t work. Why?
These features require a NAND unlocked ("S-OFF") device, in order to write to the ROM.
Depending on the software, some S-ON devices may "remember" modifications made to /system for a while, or until the next reboot. That is not enough for our purpose.
Please search the Internet for information on how to make your particular device S-OFF."
.......but, of course, for me that is Chinese. Doesn´t mean that if I´m root, I can anything I want to the Rom? If not, what do I need to make the phone S-OFF?
Hope someone could help this noob!
Thanks in advance.

But I DO have RW permissions over the system folder..............according to ES File Explorer I have "rwxr-xr-x" and those stay after I reboot my device. I can use ES File Explorer to copy files wherever I want. Root is working just fine, is just TB that cannot integrate stuff onto the ROM (neither remove, I only can freeze apps, but I want to remove them for good).
my TiBu seems to work, theres no errors. But it doesnt actually seem to work. I cant uninstall any system apps. It does the process says complete but the apps remain.
Any Solution?

This fixed my xposed framework issues! Thank you!
Yeah, that fixed the permissions to install Xposed, but that doesnt work to let Titanium Backup modify the files in the rom. MKLCF2, could you please try to integrate, let's say YOUTUBE or GOOGLE PLAY into the rom ?
I'm still at work and cannot test anything
Try
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
after that you should be able to mess around with Titanium Backup
Thanks for that tip but 2 things still happens.......I'm still unable to integrate YOUTUBE or GOOGLE PLAY newer versions into the rom AND, everytime I reboot the device is like I lose that option and I have to do the entries again on the terminal..........for example, Xposed keeps asking me "are you root?" when I try to install/update it.
Is there any other solution to this?

Hi all,
I have SuperSU Pro 2.46 installed on a lifetab P8912.
Everything worked and I got checked with rootchecker that everything works fine.
Xmodgames also starts with the message that it has root permissions granted.
The ClashofClans mod has a problem: "Mod start fails. Please confirm XModgames is authorized with root permission".
What can I do ? Does anybody else encounter the same problem or fixed that already ?
THANKS a lot for your help,

This should be brought to the attention of the developer of "ClashofClans" -- it might be looking for 'su' at a hard-coded path. You could test for this (and perhaps even fix the problem for you) by copying or linking '/system/xbin/su' to other common paths -- such as '/system/bin/su'.
At a terminal enter:
which su
It should reply '/system/xbin/su'.
Frank
hmm, thanks , but perhaps I didn't find the right shell to work with:
I do not have write access to that folder /system/bin
Shall I chmod 777 to that folder, at least temporary ?

That partition is normally mounted for reading only, not for writing. Remount it as writable, copy the file, then remount as read-only again:
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /system/xbin/su /system/bin
mount -o remount,ro /system
The SuperSU installation script will delete that copy when you flash the update again so it isn't permanent, and there is only a small chance that this is the problem.
Frank
Hi Frank,
your mount description worked fine, but still I get the error when starting the mod from xmodgames.....
Perhaps you got another tip or trick .....

In a terminal, run

Then run the application which is failing to get root; then immediately after it fails run
logcat -d > /sdcard/dump.txt
Then examine '/sdcard/dump.txt' to see if it contains an error message which might help.

Hi Frank,
done, but in the txt file it is a bunch of - at least for me - magic !
I can find lotz of krsdk stuff, looks like a former try of kingroot is still existant and might prevent something there, or perhaps that's because xmodgames is checking for kingroot ...
Really do not know .....
Anyway,
I think I am getting closer , but still the last mile to take

...looks like a former try of kingroot is still existant and might prevent something there, or perhaps that's because xmodgames is checking for kingroot ...

That's a very reasonable guess. I assume that you rooted with Kingo Root then replaced that with SuperSU. Maybe Kingo Root is still active on your device. Maybe SuperSU did not install and the root checker found Kingo's 'su'. Take a good look at both installations and try to figure out what is there. Does the SuperSU Android application run? See if 'su' will tell you whose it is by running
su --version

Kingroot didn't work when I tried it, therefore I went through the SuperSU installation.
su --version gives me
"2.45:SUPERSU"
Best regards,

I can't see what's happening from here but the cause could very well be the incomplete KingRoot attempt. It might be that your solution is to revert to stock to remove that Kingo stuff then root again using the procedure that succeeded.

Same problem with me also i really need the mod working, few other apps like freedom is working but gltools arent working
The ClashofClans mod has a problem: "Mod start fails. Please confirm XModgames is authorized with root permission".
same problem with me also..
xmodgames needs to be updated, not SuperSU.
Some problem for me with Xmod for Boom Beach. Before i updated to Android 5.0.1 it was working.
Edit: Had an old Xmod version which i installed from titanium backup. New Xmod Version fixed the problem for me.
i have this problems but i have runned root please help me

i have Samsung Tab 10.5 (SN-T805) .. and it has the same issue
me and one of my expert friends analyzed the application to see what is the problem, we found out that XMODGAMES doesn't check the root properly
So, if there was an expert person that can reverse engineer the application and fix this issue, that would be great
PS: we don't have time to do it, because of our final college exams, we might do it in the summer.

Hi all,
I have SuperSU Pro 2.46 installed on a lifetab P8912.
Everything worked and I got checked with rootchecker that everything works fine.
Xmodgames also starts with the message that it has root permissions granted.
The ClashofClans mod has a problem: "Mod start fails. Please confirm XModgames is authorized with root permission".
What can I do ? Does anybody else encounter the same problem or fixed that already ?
THANKS a lot for your help,
Alecz
