[ROOT] Yet Another Way to Root Your Optimus One (Gingerbread) - Optimus One, P500, V General

Lets just go straight to the point :
Make sure that you've :
- Downloaded and extracted 'DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit [v4.0](zergRush Exploit)' (ref : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582)
- Installed Android SDK to enable you to run ADB shell
- Enabled 'Unknown Sources' in your phone
- Enabled 'USB Debugging' in your phone
Step 1 :
- Open command line as Administrator and go to 'android-sdk/platform-tools' folder
- Run this command :
adb devices (after this command you should see your device id)
adb shell
echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf
- Leave the cmd windows open
Step 2 :
- Go to DooMLorD folder
- run 'runme.bat'
- press 'Enter' once and then once more
VOILA!!
p/s : You can close the 'cmd' windows now

Superoneclick method is better which dosent need android sdk installed

its just another way. no biggie

I rooted my O1 with Superoneclick and I recommend it , fast and safe

Sorry, where can i found superoneclick?
i have O1 with last ginger update, it's compatible?

lg optimus pro (c660) guide to root

hy
how root the lg optimus pro ?
need a guide thanks
1 º Download this suite of applications that I use (I added the zip original drivers from LG, which, with no specific model for this, worked like a charm):
www.megaupload.com/?d=U3L199Z3
2 Reset the phone manufactures (who have data to backup, use the File maneger Astro, for example), to obtain a clean file system Settings \ Privacy \ Reset factory data;
3 Extract the zip to a folder on your desktop and install the USB drivers, which are in the zip, the folder "USB driver";
4 Connect the phone to pc cable and expect drivers to be installed;
5 º Go to the pc start \ programs \ accessories \ command line;
6 After you open the command line type:
cd \
cd Users
cd (user name in question)
cd Desktop
cd (name of which are powered uncompressed zip files)
cd ADB
and the result is something like: C: \ Users \ (user name) \ Desktop \ Root Maximo LG Pro \ ADB
then enter the following commands:
adb devices (pressenter)
adb shell (press enter, and then the letter of the command line will pass to $)
echo 1> / data / local / lge_adb.conf (press enter)
7 After these commands inserted, turn off and then turn on the phone (very important this step), always with the phone connected by USB;
8 After restarting the phone, go to the folder where the files are downloaded and run the SuperOneClick.exe;
9 Select the method GingerBreak and click "ROOT"
10 When the process finishes (VERY IMPORTANT) make sure you turn off and turn it on again and update the application through the superuser Market.
That's it. Phone with root access.

Hi,
I've tried as you say, and i jammed on the driver installation. Why? On the pack you've posted, there's only a shortcut to the driver file: LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN32AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.2 - Atalho
and when clicking it its giving me a link to something that doesn't exist:
C:\Users\"username"\Desktop\LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN32AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.2.exe
Even so, i'd already had installed the LG software suite and so i've got the driver so i moved to the next steps.
when going to perform the adb shell command (error: device not found), i tried with mass storage mode on and off and msg is always the same.
can you please help me?
thanks for any answer
That guide is so complicated for n00b like me who has never before used Android. The stock rom is awfull anyway, any hope for costum roms on this one?
Hi!!
After running the adb command line and restart the mobile, i've started the super one click, it started rooting and in the end in step 7 he says "Remounting /system with read-write access .... FAILED", what went wrong?
I have the latest drivers for this smart and the latest super one click v.2.1.1
My LG has the 2.3.4 version of android and it's from TMN
Regards
is it possible to unlock it? (for free preferably)

[Q] ruu leak help

my phone was not rooted and i wanted the new gb official build so i installed it and now i want t go back to froyo how do you do this on a mac
Even though its a Mac cant you run things in a Dos like mode with c:\ prompt?
Even though its a Mac cant you run things in a Dos like mode with c:\ prompt?
Google came up with this
I looked FOREVER for these instructions. While I didn't write them, they definitely worked for me:
- Download the Android SDK for Macintosh at: Android SDK | Android Developers
- Extract it
- Download Fastboot for OSX (If not included with SDK)
- Extract fastboot and place it in your /tools folder.
- Open up a terminal window
- type: pico .bash_profile (this will create a .bash_profile)
- type the following in the new screen: export PATH=$
{PATH}:<sdkfolder>/tools
- Hit CNTRL + X
- Hit Y (for yes to save)
- It will return you to the terminal screen… type: exit
- Restart terminal.
- Then you can use your adb commands like you would on a PC. To test this, plug your device in (make sure its in debugging mode), then type "adb devices" in the new terminal window. It should show up with a number. This means you are good to go.

A better statement is he can run things like you would on linux, because osx has a bash terminal built in. Type "terminal" into finder. Sadly, most osx people have no clue that exists, which is sad because it's not a hackjob like cmd.exe.
ok i got all the way to the last step and the terminal window keeps saying: -bash: adb: command not found and -bash: sdkfolder: No such file or directory

[Q] Sony Tablet S ADB support

Has anybody got a Sony Tablet S being recognised by adb?
It seems to be blocked :-(
And yes, I have done all the usual enable USB debugging etc...
I can not use it for development :-(
---------- Post added at 12:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------
Managed to sort it myself
you need to cd to your .android folder (on a mac, this is ~/.android) and then type
echo 0x054c > adb_usb.ini
Where 0x054c is the vendor id for Sony (I got that by looking at the attached evices in the 'About this mac' preferences)
Now adb sees the device - woohoo
would this apply if i just wanted to use it to transfer music and such? I am not incredibly savy with coding but i tried to enable debugging and all that. I am justnot sure whats the problem.
No, the Android File Transfer program still works without this
Good to know it can be used to dev on. Anyone have any information on how to send data out using the IR blaster, I dont think there is support for it in the native android libraries from what I can see?
The following procedure has confirmed that ubuntu 11.04.
The following procedure has confirmed that ubuntu 11.04.
1. Enable debug mode for sony tablet S
2. Add line /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="054c", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
3. Change file mode
sudo chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
4. Add line idVendor to ~/.android/adb_usb.ini
0x054C
5. adb kill-server ; sudo adb start-server
6. finish!

Does anyone have issues with Sony's Music player failing to update the database? Music appears in the native Music app correctly but nothing in the Sony one
Found a way on Windows!
With the help of the vendor ID from above and the following article on generic Tegra Tablets, was able to get it to show up on Windows!
(Copied from addictivetips)
1.You must have Android SDK installed before you can proceed. If you don’t have it already, proceed to our guide on what is ADB and how to install it. Make sure you download the Google USB Driver Package as well.
2.Open the google-usb_driver folder that you will find inside your Android SDK folder.
3.Open the android_winusb.inf file in notepad or any text editor to edit it.
4.Add these lines under [Google.NTx86] or [Google.NTamd64] depending on whether you are using 32 bit or 64 bit Windows. If unsure, it is safe to add these under both these sections. ;NVIDIA Tegra
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0955&PID_7000
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0955&PID_7100&MI_01
Don’t edit or replace any other text that is already there; just add these new lines and save the file.
5.Open a command prompt window and enter this command: echo 0x054C >> "%USERPROFILE%\.android\adb_usb.ini"
Note: this is where you have to use 0x054C instead of what is at the link, otherwise it wont work
Now your Android SDK drivers are configured to support any Nvidia Tegra based tablet. To be able to use ADB and other SDK tools with your device, you can proceed as follows:
1.On your tablet, go to Menu > Settings > Applications > Development and enable ‘USB Debugging’.
2.Connect your tablet to your PC via USB. You will get a notification that some drivers were not installed, which is OK for now.
3.Right-click ‘Computer’ and click ‘Manage’. Identify your device from the list, right-click it and click ‘Update Driver Software..’.
4.Choose to browse your computer for driver software and then select to pick from a list device drivers on your computer.
5.Choose to view all devices and click ‘Have Disk…’.
6.Browse to the google-usb_driver folder inside your Android SDK folder and select the android_winusb.inf file.
7.If you get any warnings prompts telling you that the driver might not be compatible, just choose to continue installing.
8.Once the drivers have been installed, you should be able to use ADB with your device.
9.To confirm that your device is recognized, launch a Command Prompt window and enter these commands: adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices
Also, using BRKs Transformer's instructions found a way to boot Tablet S into recovery: has reboot, update from ZIP and factory reset options
a) Hold down power and volume UP button
b) when SONY logo appears, release power button but keep pressing volume UP button
c) should load into recovery
This also gives us the MTP device driver, which I have been unable in finding/installing
No luck so far with Automated rooting tools, working hard to crack this awesome tablet!

Works lime a charm now.

Done. Nothing was installed.
I tried downloading and installing
(Can't post links)Download: Android USB Drivers - Original (Firmware 1.0)
But when I try to install the drivers for the tablet through device manager it says:
The folder you specified doesn't contain compatible software... ...Windows for x64-based systems.
Apparently this driver is only for x86. But after googling "download Google USB Driver Package" that's all I can find.
Got it...
At least I was able to "enable it" through the USB port,
thanks to this exercise in frustration.
Alas no root screen cap still didn't work.
It flashes wildly and does nothing.
Anyone happen to know the proper command line in system variables for win 7 for adb should be?
I haven't used adb in forever, and I think alot of peoples issues with adb is in the fact they cannot use it outside of the android/android-sdk/platform-tools directory. As in you can just type adb shell, adb start-server, adb kill-server from the root dir. I had it set up before, but with a new comp now, and I forgot what it was before.
whats going wrong
i cant seem to get the device driver on my adb at all. no matter what i do i cant get the usb driver sorted. this is where i get stuck"
Please add 0x54c into .android/adb_usb.ini file under HOME directory by using following command from command prompt.
echo 0x54c >> %HOMEPATH%\.android\adb_usb.ini
home directory???? every time i try this from home directory i get nothing.
this is my problem.... i dont have this file or entry. what is the entry?????? o notpad doc??,
adb_usb.ini file was missing the 0x54c entry! <<< what is this. a screen shot goes a loooong way.

[Help!] Update System with Terminal Emulator with Error "no space left on device"

[Help!] Update System with Terminal Emulator with Error "no space left on device"
I follow the following instruction to update my Meizu Pro5 with success for several times, but i got an error message "no space left on device" this time. Is there any way to solve this?
1. Enable root
Enable root by tapping on Settings-> Accounts-> My Flyme-> Personal settings (first option) -> System privileges and set it to open - accept disclaimer and confirm.
2. Download and successfully install Busybox (from Google Play or see .apk below)
3. Download and install a Terminal Emulator (from Google Play or see apk below)
4. Download the correct and desired international (i) ROM/firmware (update.zip) for your device
5. Download and use the update.zip (firmware) converter that creates the required system-i.img
Click here to download converter first
Copy system.new.dat and system.transfer.list (from the update.zip) to the folder “in” (see converter folder)
Then start the converting process by starting System-conVERTER.cmd and pressing option 1 [enter]
If successfully converted you can find the system-i.img in the ‘‘out’’ folder.
6. Copy the converted system-img from ‘‘out’’ to the internal memory of your Meizu device
7. Go to Settings-> Display-> Sleep and set it to at least 10 minutes
8. Start the Terminal Emulator and run (type) the super user command
su
A permission popup will come; give permission by tapping allow (always allow).
9. Now run (type) the command for installing the system-img.
dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/XXXXXXX/by-name/system
Replace XXXXXXX with the correct partition system for your device
MX4 Pro = 15540000.dwmmc0
M2 note = mtk-msdc.0
MX4 = mtk-msdc.0 (OR mmcblk0p6)
MX5 = mtk-msdc.0 (OR mmcblk0p18)
Pro 5 = 15570000.ufs
Example for MX5 : dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system
Note: Pro5 might require: dd if=/storage/emulated/0/system.img instead of /sdcard/
10. The installation should start after the ‘‘dd if’’ command, but please note…
…it may seem that the copying/process did NOT start because you didn’t notice it, but it DID start.
do NOT type a new command or whatsoever, just…
…be patient and give your device 5-10 minutes to process.
11. When the process is done you’ll see a # at the very end
Your device should be unresponsive by now - this is normal
12. Now just shutdown your phone (hold power button) and reboot it
13. Once successfully booted your device should be running an I-rom
Once in Flyme again it is wise - but not necessary - to completely reset your phone. Go to settings->about phone->memory->factory data reset-> check both boxes and click start cleaning (this could take 5-10minutes). Always backup your stuff if necessary.
