[Q] Barnacle on 2.1 - Streak 5 Themes and Apps

Has anyone managed to get Barnacle WiFi tethering working with a rooted Streak on the 2.1 build?
I get:
su: uid 10120 not allowed to su
Which, as a Linux and Android noob, doesn't look like it worked
Do any of the android-wifi-tether releases at http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether work?

This should of been posted in themes and apps, not Android development...

Works fine for me. Are you sure you rooted your phone?

Yes, rooted and now running DJSteve's 1.1.1 version of Froyo.
Never managed to get Barnacle working, or the built in WiFi share - the only thing that works for me is the Android Google WiFi hotspot app.

su = root/super user. if you can su, you hit dont allow when it asked for root access or you are not properly rooted.

[Q] Newbie with SE Xperia X10 mini pro

Hi everyone,
I recently receive my new SE X10 mini pro from Vodafone, and I already updated it using PC Companion!
Model: U20i
Version: 2.1-update1
Kernel: 2.6.29
Compilation: 2.0.A.0.504
And now, How can I root him?
I read that we can use z4root and found it in Market, but I did not found that program.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks
It seems that google have removed it from the market. You can find it here instead:

I tried to root just about an hour ago with Z4Mod... it seemed like it worked, superuser installed.... but when I tried to download to titanium backup to make sure busybox was installed it said I did not have root.
Verified this by typing su in terminal emulator as well.
What am I doing wrong?
AT&T 1.6 Mini Pro
Thank you!
Also, are there no custom ROMs for this phone?
How can I make it faster?
Is there support for apps 2 SD?
No custom roms yet.
Apps 2 SD is supported.

Z4Mod says the phone is rooted... superuser installs.
However, I do not have root. Titianium Backup states so, and terminal emulater su does not return a #.
Anything i need to do to make this Z4Mod root my mini pro?

I fixed that by enabling USB debugging in the settingss from the x10. maybe it helps for you too.
Try downloading busybox from titanium backup (click "Problems?")
Sure! I have just rooted using it. Type z4root in the search box here in the forum. Someone put a link to the app. You download it to your computer and then to your phone. Install it and it is ready to root a**!

[Q] Help: Can't get access to the full Android Market

When I tried to download BusyBox (the MARKET ONLY version) it would not show on my phone...I thought it was removed from the market until I searched via the pc android market site. I tried installing with the PC site but it said my phone was not compatible? I thought that all rooted phones had access to the full market?
My phone is an x10 mini pro U20i rooted with Z4root 1.3.0. Should I unroot, then root with SuperOneClick? Or how else may I get access to the Full Android Market?
Any help would be really appreciated!

[Q] I can't get SSHtunnel to work properly

Hello,
I need to bypass a firewall using an ssh tunnel.
I have downloaded the app SSHtunnel from their website and installed it.
I configured it and it connects to my server but I can't get any app to use the proxy. The Global Proxy checkbox is also checked and I am using MiniCM7 2.0.5 ROM.
Does anyone know what am i doing wrong?
You need to install netfilter, or upgrade to a newer ROM that comes bundled with it.

Cannot Unroot razr....help!!!!

I rooted using the method here: [04/Jan][ROOTING/UNROOTING] DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit [v4.0](zergRush Exploit) - xda-developers
I was a Samsung Fascinate owner so this is not my first time rooting. Last night I purchased a video from the market and could not watch it bc I was rooted. Instead of downloading the apk which is supposed to work around this, I decided I would rather unroot. My purpose for rooting was to use free wifi tether which I hadn't gotten to work anyway.
So I used the unroot method found above and it does restart my phone but the Superuser app is still in my app drawer. I tried unrooting twice more: didn't work. So I tried to root again using the above process but unlike my first time where I received a conformation message, I received nothing and the cmd prompt actually closed.
Now, I have the superuser app in the drawer. I tried to use screenshot & a wifi tether app. They both told me I needed to be rooted to use them. I downloaded Linda file manager and looked in the system/apps and did not see superuser.apk there.
I found this and tried it as well: How to Unroot Droid Razr! | DroidRazrRoot.com. It did not help. At this point, I have no idea what to do.
Thanks in advance for your help!

You have the updated su from market, it doesn't mean you are still rooted, as your own tests have proved. Look in My Apps and uninstall the updated su. You're good.
That was exactly it! Thank you SO much!

How can I use Openvpn in tap mode on a rooted device?

This seems to be a long outstanding issue and it is really hard for me to believe it hasn't been solved by now. I want to use openvpn in tap mode on my phone. Everything I have read says that it can't be done on a non-rooted phone, but my phone is rooted and I can't seem to find any instructions on how to do this. Can someone point me in the right direction?
I'm also interested, how to do it with OpenVPN TAP. I have also rooted device. Till Android 4.4.4 it worked for me by installing binary and using OpenVPN Settings / Installer from F-Droid / Play store. After Android upgrade 5.0 and higher there was an exception and it didn't work, I presume API change or security issues. The only app I know that work with TAP mode is the paid version of OpenVPN Client from Play store. Maybe somebody knows, how to configure OpenVPN in TAP mode on rooted device on Android 5.0 and higher?
