Yes another ROOTME thread... But this is Root + OC AIO - HTC EVO 3D

Difference between Pre-OTA and Post-OTA: Pre-OTA means you did NOT accept the Over The Air system update. Post means you did

Well... I used all of the root tools and scripts... i always had a problem where no matter what only one program would get root. Then Titanium Backup wouldnt acquire root EVER...
Then I tried the new perma temp root and still nothing.
So i did what I do best and tweaked the .bat a bit and added automatic OC scripting. Only reason I am making this thread is to help those who could not fix FULL temp root. With this I was able to always run TiBu and SetCPU no probs. I achieved this by added the ./fixsu.sh into the /bat into /vendor/bin.
There is a point where it says you HAVE to wait ten seconds... You do. I do the whole root process with my screen off just to be safe. If it reboots your phone, it means the CPU was active while you tried to alter its settings.
Also, I went ahead and added the commands to push LKM right after ROOT, and made it scale up to my highest stable undervolted frequency. Note: you can change the settings within the .bat if you want higher/lower freqs+uV. [scpll_l_val=[B]32[/B] is the frequency step. 33 is 1.8GHz and 37 is 2.0GHz(good luck! haha). 37 IS the highest you can try. vdd_uv=1320000 is the voltage. If you try anything 1188000 or below you will be locked to stock clock settings. Stock voltage is 1188000, afterall....
Thanks to coolbho3000 for the LKM (and SetCPU of course, GO BUY IT FOR HIM, he deserves the $$$). And thanks to teamwin for the root... and thanks to
eugene373 for sharing about /vendor/bin.
This is probably what you wanna read
So much text for such an easy process. JUST run the .bat Press any key when it says... READ what it says afterwards [wait 10 seconds with no activity AND screen OFF]... Press a key to continue. Go to SetCPU and Overclock. This WILL make all your programs have permanent temporary root (if you reboot you must reroot!)
Update:Ok then. I went ahead and added another .bat file which is for people who DON'T want anything auto uninstalled (which is honestly just [email protected]@)

Also, updated the fixsu.sh to be overkill, it will send to both, /data AND /vendor. This is just for those picky phones. Won't have any negative effect on anyone.
Additionally, I found a TEMPSU.BAT in another thread and went ahead and overkilled that one on the pathing too. The tempsu.bat is for those who have issue with SuperUser and/or Force Closes in trying to reach it. First, Uninstall Superuser by using the default uninstaller (clear data first!). Reboot your phone. KEEP the screen OFF. Run the ROOT.bat. After its complete leave the screen off. Then run TEMPSU.BAT. Should be no problems anymore. I came from a LONG line of SuperUser FCs. I could only get one program at a time to get ROOT. Once I got it to work the right at last, it hasn't reappeared. So don't worry.

Can't seem to get root to work. When it installs oc it always resets too. I have the screen off like it says. Adb drivers are installed and I can root by other methods just not this one. Maybe the oc voltage is too high that's packed in the script?

I can think of 2 problems. Either you CPU is finicky and won't run on 1.7 (32), or you are pressing 'any key' in too quick of a succession. There will be one prompt for 'any key to continue', then it will pause again with text saying to wait, and THEN press a key again. If you are doing it right and know it, try changing the OC from 32 to 30 (and lower the voltage a bit also). If still doesn't work, do the RUU reflash method and start the script on a fresh install.

If you are using Win7 or Vista (same thing, really) @ 64bit, you have to remember that the drivers for ADB 64bit are not digitally signed. So you will have to press F8 key at your PC startup, then select 'Disable Driver Signature Enforcement. Be sure to go into the Device Manager and ensure you see 'ADB Android Interface' under 'Android Phones'. If you see a triangle with a yellow thing it means the driver is not properly loaded. This is the only thing that will keep ADB from recognizing your phone... That or you have USB Debugging disabled on your phone (Menu>Settings>Applications>Development.

Been running for almost a day strait now. The only wierd thing is I keep getting the popup saying SetCPU has been granted SU permission every 30sec or so while the phone is in use :s
Edit, before I get flamed... I know I can tell SU not to warn me, but SetCPU has never done this to me except after reboots.

Yea I get it too. The problem is eMMC is making us lose the temp root. But thanks to the original founder, we can add and symlink to /vendor/bin and just have the system reapply the privileges.

First do the first RUU... Then go ahead and do the next one. Don't worry about any exploits that may be covered up, the kernel is the same and more than likely nothing else of value was touched... Since it wasn't noticed. Just do it. Then use the POST Ota zip.

I get a 'file is broken' error on adb.exe. I wouldn't care since I have adb already on my desktop and in my path, but it won't finish extracting files with that file dying. Not sure if it's just me or not.
This is on the pre-ota rar file.

no problem man. Now that I have my phone basically with full Root privs, I dont need to restart anymore. But in the rare event that I HAVE to... It'll be 45 seconds to root and OC with nothing done.
i just wish i could do something about all the hostility in this forum...

i have tried this 2 times now.. the rooting process seems to go fine, but when the damn setCPU app tries to run, it says it cannot access root or whatever.. basically leaving me in setCPU safemode, where nothing can be done.. not sure whats goin on.. tried doing it the manual way before your .bat got uploaded and same stuff happened.. i know i have root cause i can see # in adb shell.. any suggestions.. its the latest SetCPU 2.2.4
EDIT: I think I finally got it.. for some reason, after reboots, superuser didnt uninstall.. so i uninstalled before i ran .bat and i opened titanium backup to check if it would request root from superuser and it did. i then opened setCPU and it requested superuser also.. was able to get it up to 1.8Ghz without shooting any commands. i had to do a autodetect though to get it to recognize correct cpu frequencies.. after that, i ran a full benchmark in Quadrant.. got a 2775!!

might want to alert people you put in some removal of stock apps - not a big deal cause i looked at your .bat first, but some people may not.
thanks for the script too!

worked first time. And Riggs, yeah, first thing I did was check the bat file and removed the remove lines.

First, thanks for this! Second, I'm not 100% sure, but I think the fixsu.sh file needs changed.. you are pushing busybox/su/etc to /vendor/bin, but fixsu.sh thinks they are still in /data/local/tmp.
If I'm wrong, ignore me... but it's throwing a number of errors that do not seem right..
Thanks again,

I had the same problem with Superuser. I had to uninstall it before this script would work.
And I wasn't crazy about the app removal lines either.. I removed them from my copy of the script.

Clean and pre-rooted 2.1 ROM

All credits go to pulpoff2 for this! This is not by me, I am merely the messenger. Only thing I did was to ask pulpoff for the files and a tutorial With his permission I will share it with you.
This will provide you with a fresh and unmodified 2.1-system, exactly like you would do the official update - only exception is that it is rooted. So all the apps and games of the official firmware are available and nothing else. You can remove the crap (like the games or timescape for example) by yourself after doing the steps below.
UPDATE:
There is a newer ROM by propc you can use instead of this one. Look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888427
-- NEW --
propc kindly provides us with a shellscript to automate the steps below. See here for the script and a short manual:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10067921&postcount=120
If the script doesn't work for you or you prefer to do things the manual way, you may use the steps below.
Download these files:
x8-2.1rooted.img.yaffs.rar
and
ISO-8859-1__unyaffs-arm.rar
Also download the 2.1-firmware from here or here. Unpack it on your computer and delete the "system.sin".
Unpack "x8rooted.img", "busybox" and "unyaffs" to SDcard.
You need 1.6 with root on your phone. By the way, all the data on your phone will be lost after doing the following steps, so making a backup is advised.
Use "adb shell" to connect to your phone and become su:
Code:
su
Copy "busybox" and "unyaffs" to /data/local/tmp. (Pulpoff says you should copy to /sbin, but this requires remounting with busybox. I copied to /sbin, but I think /data/local/tmp should work just fine)
Code:
cd /data/local/tmp
cat /sdcard/busybox > busybox
cat /sdcard/unyaffs > unyaffs
chmod the files to make them executable:
Code:
chmod 755 busybox
chmod 755 unyaffs
EDIT: If you want to copy the files to /sbin (like pulpoff2 advises), you can do this OPTIONAL step:
EDIT2: It was confirmed that this is indeed not necessary!
Remount the root directory to make /sbin writable. Then copy the files over and change the working directory to /sbin:
Code:
[strike]
./busybox mount -o remount,rw /
./busybox cp -prf busybox /sbin/
./busybox cp -prf unyaffs /sbin/
cd /sbin[/strike]
Remount /system as writable:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
Switch to busybox shell:
Code:
./busybox sh
Remove /system (yes, really!). It's normal to get errors because of the "lost+found"-folders. Ignore the errors.
Code:
./busybox rm -r /system
Unpack pre-rooted image to system. It should output "end of image" if it finishes correctly.
Code:
./unyaffs /sdcard/x8rooted.img /system
Your phone won't boot anymore now and it will crash as soon as you try to use it - that's normal! Go to next step.
Just remove the battery and the usb-cable from the phone, then re-attach the battery. Flash 2.1-kernel (without system.sin !!) using the flasher-tool by Bin4ry. If the flasher gives you an error because of a missing "loader.sin" you can take this file from the 1.6-firmware. Refer to Bin4ry's thread to learn how to use his flasher and how to enter flash-mode on your phone.
The phone should now boot, although the first boot can take a little while. If you get into a boot-loop or you just see the white sony ericsson logo (not the green one after the animation) for several minutes, it probably didn't work and you have to start over again by flashing 1.6.
This was written as I remember how I did it by myself. It worked for me at first try! If it works for you, please click the thanks-button. It will make me feel better
After you have your nice rooted 2.1 you probably want to enable JIT for a nice performance boost.
But does it have root? Bad reading.

Absolutely. But no busybox. So if you plan to enable JIT, you have to copy busybox to /system/bin by yourself.

of course it is rooted.
now we know what to do with unyaffs.
2 things:
1. I've bought the phone with 1.6 android, but I was unable to root it with any method, then I've upgraded to 2.1 update 1. Is there any way to root it?
2. I have Hungarian language. Does it contain Hungarian language?

1: There is no way to directly root a phone with 2.1. You need to go back to 1.6, root it and then follow the above steps.
2: I guess so. As far as I know the firmware is the same for all countries.
Works like a charm! I removed the /system folder contents one by one though, using the method from the previous thread. Anyway, the first time I tried, unyaffs exited before extracting all the files (maybe the phone ran out of memory?). I didn't notice it and went on to flash the phone, ending up stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo. So, make sure that unyaffs reports that it has reached the "end of image" before moving on to the next step!
Thanks!!

This has nothing to do with App2SD. Also the ROM gets loaded from internal flash, not from sdcard. The result is the same as with the official update, but with root.
If you want to have /data on sdcard, use the modified chargemon or neptun2's method.

You should still be in "/data/local/tmp" as the working directory (check with "pwd"-command). If you followed the steps correctly, you should have a working busybox-file in there. So just type "busybox sh". If it looks like it does nothing, it's all right

That's way too long, something isn't right there. To start over again you have to flash back to 1.6.

[GUIDE] How to install touchscreen fix

It's really about time somebody made a simple, easy and straight forward guide for installing mik_os's clever touchscreen kernal patch thing. I'm not android genius and really struggled to install this having no knowledge of how androids really work inside. Trying to figure out how to install the much needed touchscreen fix was a disaster but I finally got it right.
Due to a lack of simple and easy to follow guides I have made this one to help out other beginners, who like me didn't receive the help they need despite hours of google searches.
WARNING: If you do something wrong, or if something breaks while you are following this guide, I'm not responsible for any of your actions. Do this at your own risk.
The files provided are not my work and I take NO credit for them. They were created by clever people to help our lives

Firstly this guide shows you how to root and then flash your phone with mik's fix. I'm not very good with androids but this worked and is pretty fault proof if you follow the steps. BEFORE BEGINNING MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FULL BATTERY!
1) Make sure you have Froyo 2.2. To check what version you have go to settings> about phone> android version. If you have 2.2.1 or something I really can't help you, do a bit of searching on how to downgrade. Explaining it will only complicate things if you are knew to androids like me.
2) Click this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=446145&d=1290341328
3) Save it to your computer, plug your phone into the USB port and copy the newly downloaded file onto it(by enabling mass storage device thing on your phone) and just pasting it in there not in any folder.
4) On your phone open the android market, search for Astro file manager. Choose to install it(wait for download and install to complete).
5)Open Astro File manager and locate the file you downloaded (z4Root by RyanZa) using astro (it'll be in the sd folder on its own). Select z4Root and install it and run it after installing.
6) Choose to permanently root your phone(this voids your warranty btw). Let it do its stuff, your phone will restart and you will be a super user! win.
7)Next download this:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/uf752h914q0u228/recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img.zip
and
http://www.mediafire.com/?45u0obd6pjj5twp
(Do not extract this file only the others)
and this
http://androidforums.com/attachment...ery-optimus-one-p500-thunderg-flash_image.zip and extract both of them into folders.
(thanks to getitnowmarketing for guidance at this point)
Next do one of the following two methods:
METHOD A(EASIER):
8)Download & install:
Google Chrome to phone(PC Google Chrome extension)
Google Chrome to phone(Phone app)
Terminal Emulator (Phone app)
9)Synchronize your Google account in Chrome to Phone(browser extension and phone app) and make a test by sending something to your phone(link,text).Make sure it's working.
10)After that open Terminal Emulator and type "su"(without quotes) and click yes when it's asking you for Superuser permission."#" will appear.

8) Now download this: http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r09-windows.zip (windows) or http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r09-linux_x86.tgz (linux) ,extract and install it.
9) Copy(with mass storage mode on) the FILES (and the one zip file that was downloaded from mediafire--> the other two things copied accross should not be zip files but instead individual files that have been extracted. ) to your SD card (not in any folder or anything, just in the main folder that opens when you open your SD card on your computer).
10) Turn off mass storage mode on your mobile (pull down the notification bar and click where it says USB Connected and make sure it is off).
11) Next go Settings>Applications>Development>Tick USB debugging (make sure it is on).
12) Next, on your computer press windows key + r, type cmd. Then type
cd <follwed by the address of the platform-tools folder in the sdk folder>
For example mine was (remember all lowercase):
c:\downloads\android-sdk_r08-windows\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
so i typed :
cd c:\downloads\android-sdk_r08-windows\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
13) A whole lot of writing should come up and stuff in the box you typing in (cmd prompt). Next type adb shell and then the word su. Your phone should ask if it should allow permission for super user, select allow or grant access or whatever it says on your phone.
14) Making progress. Next copy the following lines and go back into cmd prompt and right click in it and select paste. Do one line at a time into cmd prompt.
15)
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak
[B][U](if it shouts at you here saying not found or something,ignore it)[/U][/B]
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img
reboot recovery
Wait a bit and your mobile/phone will turn off, hold in the down volume key and the home key. Keep them held in for a bit when the LG logo comes up.
16) You may back up if you want at this point by going to backup/restore (scroll using volume key and select it using the key on the very left of your phone at the bottom in the front). Choose nandroid backup and let it do its business).
17) Next get back to the mainscreen and select flash zip from sdcard. Select signed_kernal.zip and choose to let it flash. Let it do its business, go to the mainscreen, click reboot system now and you done. Your phone should restart happily with a much less cpu intensive touch screen!
hope this guide helps someone who had the same troubles as me.
Feel free to inform me of anything I may of left out
good work but all the commands can be entered using terminal emulator on phone itself..
thanks
I would much rather just use my pc to type the commands cause I can copy paste them nicely and I trust my pc more

Well,from step 8 using Terminal Emulator and Chrome to phone.
8)Download & install:
Google Chrome to phone(PC Google Chrome extension)
Google Chrome to phone(Phone app)
Terminal Emulator (Phone app)
9)Synchronize your Google account in Chrome to Phone(browser extension and phone app) and make a test by sending something to your phone(link,text).Make sure it's working.
10)After that open Terminal Emulator and type "su"(without quotes) and click yes when it's asking you for Superuser permission."#" will appear.
11)From the commands list below copy every line (except red one) one by one and send it to phone.On phone paste all commands one by one,as you send them from Chrome, in Terminal Emulator.
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak
[COLOR="Red"][U](if it shouts at you here saying not found or something,ignore it)[/U][/COLOR]
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img
reboot recovery
12)Wait a bit and your mobile/phone will turn off, hold in the down volume key and the home key. Keep them held in for a bit when the LG logo comes up.
Skip to step 16!
You can update first post if you like it!
Nice...
What about WifiKeyboard? With this tool you can write on phone with keyboard on your PC. Also can be used for SMSs, emails, and so on.
even better and more easy to use copy/paste for emulator.
It works
Thank u for the tutorial. It really worked fine, using the wireless keyboard. 10x for the help and effort u put in this.
thanks for this tutorial.. it helped me a lot..
Actually I found easier with the sdk and windows dos terminal, but whatever ^^, this is a great guide, should have seen before
So are you sure this doesn't work in 2.2.1?
hey i was just wondering... since lg will be releasing gingerbread for the optimus one(p500), is there a way to be able to do this in the future with this setup? or have we given up all future updates from lg or otherwise for this custom kernel??
also i just got an error message when i copied in the first part of the terminal part. I comes up "cannot create /system/bin/flash_image: read-only file system"
Need help!!!
Edit: i found somewhere you had to type in the "mount" line before it all... and it seemed to have worked, hope i didn't break something :s
Edit 2: now i've run into another problem as your instructions seem to skip steps and information towards the end. this line in particaular:
17) Next get back to the mainscreen and select flash zip from sdcard. Select signed_kernal.zip and choose to let it flash. Let it do its business, go to the mainscreen, click reboot system now and you done. Your phone should restart happily with a much less cpu intensive touch screen!
Select flash zip? There is no flash zip anywhere mentioned besides here. could you please clarify or could anyone tell me what he means as im stuck on this part

[HOW-TO] ROOT (fre3v0) + Titanium Backup

As you all are aware, the amazing developers at TeamWin were able to find a way to allow us to temporarily root our devices.
If you would like to play around with apps that use Superuser, then there are a few more things you would need to do.
WARNING - DO THIS AT YOUR OWN PERIL. I cannot provide extensive support. What i can provide is a way for applications that use Superuser such as Titanium Backup to recognize the root.
Since this is all temporary, you will only have access until the next time the device decides to clean house! Then, you will need to reboot, reroot, and rerun the script. This is only if you want to kind of fool around for a bit.
What you need:
Rooted with Fre3vo
Understand how to use ADB
Superuser.apk & Su
Titanium Backup
Busybox
fixsu.sh
1. adb push fixsu.sh /data/local/tmp
2. adb push su /data/local/tmp
3. adb push busybox /data/local/tmp
4. adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/fixsu.sh
5. adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/su
6. adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/busybox
7. Install Superuser.apk
8. Install Titanium Backup
9. adb shell
# cd /data/local/tmp
# ./fixsu.sh
--- It's okay to see this error ---
rm failed for /system/bin/su Read-only file system
Hopefully when you are all done, you can open up Superuser and TitaniumBackup and you will see something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

adb is really quite trivial. The main commands you need to worry about are push, which lets you upload a file to the phone, pull, which lets you download a file from the phone, and shell, which lets you send commands to the linux bash shell (or is it just sh? doesn't matter they're both very similar.) Adb push and pull work like this:
adb pull <source file on the phone>
adb push <source file on your pc> <destination directory on the phone>
So say for example you wanted to upload su to a writable location (in this case, /data/local/tmp,) you'd execute a command like this:
adb push su /data/local/tmp
adb shell with parameters after it will execute a shell command with that parameter. Or you can just do 'adb shell' and it'll bring up an interactive bash prompt where you can simply enter commands without having to type 'adb shell' at each line.
Now bash itself is a little more technical, but for the purposes of this, you only need to understand a few things: In linux, you need to flag a file with an executable permission attribute before you can execute it. This is what the 'chmod 777 <filename>' command does. So say you want to make su executable:
# chmod 777 su
And unless you set a PATH= environment variable (don't worry if you don't know what that is) you need to specify an absolute path to the executable in order to execute it. A simple dot (.) refers to the current directory. So if you are already in /data/local/tmp, you can say for example do this:
# ./su
Otherwise if you were in another directory, it would have to be:
# /data/local/tmp/su
As far as changing directories, bash is similar to DOS, aka windows command prompt. Just cd <directory name>. cd .. changes to one directory up in the heirarchy. Or you can specify an absolute path to switch to another directory without hopping through other ones first, e.g:
cd /data/local/tmp
Also noticed you can only use Root one time before it dies. Example: I tried to remove Amazon MP3 crapware and it removed but Superuser had to force close. Then no more exploit. Did I do something wrong or is that just the way it is for now?
Yes i know crapware comes back after reboot. Just sayin...
Yea I opened titanium backup once. Worked great when I tried to reopen it superuser force close. And TB couldn't find the root again.

Have you enable debug mode?
I was scratching my head until I revise debug mode is default to off.
yep.... i double checked that one
try this
adb kill-server
sudo adb start-server
adb push <file> <location on device>
the push may need a sudo as well. I can't remember if it did when I was having this problem. I don't think it does though

So we couldn't use this to remove any bloatware or say remove Swype and replace it with the new version of swype?
ok thank you guys i finally go it to give me root. i still can't get titanium backup to come up though..... it tells me that it's not rooted yet adb tells me otherwise. and i have superuser installed.
edit: so after about the 5th attempt it finally went through. so far it's working flawlessly and superuser isn't force closing. i've been able to delete some bloat and now i'm doing a full batch backup of the current system. i can't wait until full root access but this is definitely working for me now! xda rocks!

Superuser had a known problem and it crashed most of the times with the Incredible S , to solve this someone modified the superuser and it wouldn't crash anymore.
This is how we get the SU working on the Incredible S by then.
I am thinking a patched SU would do the trick . The patched SU has a version number of v9.9.9 or something like this.
A user madmaxx82 at the Incredible S forums knows very well about this issue and you guys can ask him for a patched SU version and then try again...
SU should work flawlessly after this patch.
Oohmahgaawwd.
Thank you!! I won't have to go back throw all my games I haven't beaten yet!
And tasker! My tasks!! Yay!

Ya so far my experience has been:
rooted the first time and busybox said i was rooted but superuser crashes and titanium says non-root (but adb says i'm rooted)
second time, i fixed the superuser problem by uninstalling then simply installing from Market...when it installed it said I should get the latest binary, i did, and it crashed zero times since then...the problem at that point was that superuser then allowed ITSELF, but busybox now said it WAS'NT rooted...and TB still no good.
SO: so far Superuser is 1 for 2, same with busybox, and TB is 0 for two.
I'll try again and see if I can just install superuser from market as a substitute for that step...or else maybe I can get the latest APK from market and then install vial adb just like your post says.
QUESTION: What's the point of the fixsu? that last step has given me weird responses every time (sometimes no reaction from adb, other times it seems to try to run busybox in every single /system folder....hmm)
OH, QUICK NOTE FOR NOOBS: OP's two steps that start "INSTALL..."...should read "adb install" .......or at least that's how it worked for me.
My experience is this.... Titanium works for restoringbut not really all that well for uninstalling, after rebooting I still have the icons and bs for all the stock sprint apps like telenav, amazon, and sprint tv. I also couldn't get root permissions for adfree either. I did notice that I had root until I hit kill all in atk so that seems to have something to do with it.

<[TOOL 7/13]> Jeremy's Fre3vo Sticky-Root Windows/Linux/Mac v2.5

This script will run on Windows, Linux and Mac. No longer do you have to worry about having adb in your path, as i have included the binaries for all the operating systems.
The Linux and Mac script will automatically detect what O/S your using and use the correct binary.
You should be all set right out of the box, as long as you have the adb drivers installed for your device if you are in Windows. Linux/Mac users need not worry about the drivers.
COMING SOON.
overclocking capability and more
For Windows Users:
1. REBOOT YOUR PHONE BEFORE RUNNING
2. Extract the zip.
3. Make sure your drivers are installed.
Youtube Video from a user
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcWqeYQjjk0
older version of the script but same principal
4. Run Root.bat
5. Select your device
6. Hit #1
7. Profit!!!
Drivers For Windows:
Evo3D 32-bit Windows drivers:
Download HERE
Evo3D 64-bit Windows drivers:
Download HERE X64
For Linux/Mac Users:
1. REBOOT YOUR PHONE BEFORE RUNNING
2. Extract the zip.
3. Enter the directory.
4. Set the script permissions to allow it to execute.
Code:
chmod +x root
5. Plug in your device.
6. Run the script.
Code:
./root
7. Select your device.
8. Select #1
9. Profit!
Notes:
After the script starts all you have to do is choose option #1
The script remounts the file system R/W by itself. The other options are just there for convenience if you were to need to remount for hackery. sorry for the confusion.
All files are included including Fre3vo, su, busybox and superuser.apk
I get absolutely no superuser force closes with this. Titanium backup works perfectly. This is also the newest version of the superuser beta.
I have tested these scripts on my phone 10x each, 20 reboots if your counting If you are having problems REBOOT the phone to wipe all the changes you may have made with other scripts/errors.
Also if you install the Terminal Emulator from the market and type "su" you will get a superuser pop up to allow permissions and you will get a root prompt in the Terminal.
Let me know how it works for you.

You Sir are Amazing. Thank You. (Moves my own script into trash =) )
Eagerly awaiting a .bat file for this.
I *THINK* this should work for Window users... I made it really quick like and haven't even tested it myself..
Put this in the SDK folder "platform-tools" and run it as Admin. Make sure you extract all of the files to the root directory of the platform-tools folder and it should work.
platform-tools > root.bat
platform-tools > bin
platform-tools > apk
That should be your folder structure.
Let me know if it works
I got a mac, but from reading the OP it says I need ADB in my path? Not sure exactly what that means...

here is the mac binary for adb.
what you have to do is copy it into the /usr/bin/ folder.
Code:
sudo cp adb /usr/bin/
you need to make sure you are in the directory that adb is in when you execute that.

Thanks J.eremy. You asked to let you know how it went in your OP, so I'm reporting back. It worked excellent and quick, as advertised. Couldn't have been simpler, thanks. I've had it running for about an hour now, and have had no super user FC. How long have you had this lasting so far? Prior to this, I would only be able to go about a half hour or so before i got FC on super user, and would have to start over again. Is something different here? It seems to be sticking far longer...at least so far.

it lasts me until reboot every time normally, im pretty sure the main problem with some other scripts are they are not setting the permissions right and not modifying the passwd and group files correctly.

yea Stericson is right, looks like the batch file isn't auto mounting the /system as R/W.
gonna go take a look at it now

This is my setup. Fresh reboot, fresh file extraction (directly from your .zip into platform-tools). Failed.

interesting...your picture shows it cannot find /bin/fre3vo
either it cant find the folder, or it cant find the file....

[MOD] 1.8GHz+ overclock module for HTC EVO 4G LTE

EDIT: Perflock really doesnt allow the settings to stick. Sure you can change them in Set CPU or a similar app, but after using CPU Spy and realizing that the phone does not clock to above 1.5GHZ unless Set CPU is open this is considered pretty much useless until a custom kernel comes that disables perflock. Sorry.
First I want to say thanks to Haus for showing me how to do this, his thread is here. This is not my own release but rather I modded coolbho3000's original module to work with our phones. The rest of the post will be word for word verbatim of his post.
Instructions
Install the overclock (only once):
1. Push the kernel module to your device, make sure it is the krait_oc.ko file, not the krait_oc.ko.bak file:
Code:
adb push krait_oc.ko /data/local
2. Install the new thermald.conf, making sure to back up the old one, and reboot. The thermald.conf is included in the download. If you want to target a frequency other than 1809000 KHz, you should edit the thermald.conf and replace "1809000" to whatever frequency you want to target.
Code:
adb push thermald.conf /data/local
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /system/etc/thermald.conf /system/etc/thermald.conf.bak
rm -r /system/etc/thermald.conf
cp /data/local/thermald.conf /system/etc
reboot
Load the overclock (every time you reboot):
1. Load the kernel module (replace pll_l_val and vdd_uv with your desired voltages and L value as explained above. It defaults to 67 and 1300000 if you don't give it any parameters):
Code:
adb shell
su
insmod /data/local/krait_oc.ko pll_l_val=67 vdd_uv=1300000
2. Bring core 1 temporarily offline so it gets updated with the new max frequency:
Code:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
3. You'll now have an additional CPU frequency! SetCPU can configure your maximum frequency up to this speed. You can also choose to keep running at 1.5GHz at any time - this method doesn't eliminate any available frequencies. Set the max at 1.8GHz to verify it's stable here.
4. Restart thermald by running "ps". Look for "thermald" in the list, and find thermald's pid (it's usually a number in the low hundreds, higher up in the list). Run "kill [thermald's PID]" in adb shell. The kernel does not currently have kernel-level temperature throttling turned on, so thermald is important for now.
Remove the overclock by restoring your backup of thermald.conf:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm -r /system/etc/thermald.conf
cp /system/etc/thermald.conf.bak /system/etc/thermald.conf
rm -r /system/etc/thermald.conf.bak
reboot
Rebooting clears any kernel modules that are loaded, so you're now clean. You can then delete anything left over in /data/local, but it doesn't matter.

This is amazing. We can overclock before kernel source drops... Thank you devs once again for exceeding my expectations!

Nice work

Seems a little complicated for me but can't wait to see how this thing does oc'd so we know what to expect when Kernel source is released ..
Code:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
I get permission denied at this point.

This is definitely not a flashable zip. Everything you need to do is in the OP, step by step.

If you are a newbie I would hold off on this. I don't consider my self a newbie and there is just something that scares me about messing with the kernel unless I'm 100% sure of what I'm doing.
It may need to be tweaked a bit. I crash a lot a 1.8. I'm not sure how you ran a qruadrant.

that would be super sweet! :good:
this is similar to how we oc the E3D prior to kernel release, when we just had temp root. We used terminal emulator.
this does not play well with dual core mods. if you're running one then disable it.
the dual core mod won't let you turn off the second core to let it update the frequency.
dual core mod back to stock

Shouldn't that be "mount -o remount,rw /system" ?
