Hi all
I have extracted the qvga keyboard apk from the android emulator but it wont install
It says update incompatible on adb and fails on file manager
I cannot remount my system partition at the moment even though my phone is rooted but I will try it tommorow and then try adb push and post the results
Meanwhile can anyone explain this error?

help, ive tried to root so many times using the superoneclick rooting method, and i dont know why it isnt working, im usb debugging, and everytime, the program stops at waiting for device and then stops responding, i have to force close it cuz it stops responding. Ive looked at the forums but theres too many, and very little for the vibrant, ive tried what they say but come out with an phone not rooted. Can someone give me detailed information about what to do, and not just give me a link to a forum ive probably already read.
Do you have a android 3e recovery? Or you can't root straight up because I rooted fine with superoneclick root even after the 2.2 upgrade

Yeah don't worry I had trouble also with that update. I've answered this a couple of times though hold up let copy and paste my solution from the tmobile forums

ok cool sounds good
*Download SuperOneClick root on here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
*Run SuperOneClick Root (remember to enable usb debugging)
*Download the files on here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423
*Put both of the files found on step 3 in the root (not in any folders) of you INTERNAL sd card.
*Download root explorer on the market .
*Copy the recovery found in the 3e_recovery_installer.zip* in system/bin
*Copy the keys file found in the res into the efs file
*Run shell root on SuperOneClick
*Now enter the 3e_recovery_installer.zip on your computer and run the bat file found in there
*Go download Rom Manager in the market, flash clockwork recovery, and Reinstall Packages in recovery you may have to do this more than once

Were you able to get superuser through superoneclick root

My bro has not long got a Dell streak.. but has no computer to hook it up to.
Is there any way round flashing with fastboot?
The phone is already rooted.. so I just need to flash the recovery.
Can handle some command line stuff if anyone knows how to do it.
Thanks.

Bump!
The phone IS ROOTED already... So if I can mount /system I can delete the install-recovery.sh script so the stock recovery won't reflash.
But Rom manager flashes recovery to the wrong place apparently.
Can anyone tell me if 'flash_image' will work
My bro wants a custom Rom bad... But no pc to get him started
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Maybe with terminal emulator, and clockwork on your sd card... Not sure tho, search the forums.
Just a brain storm.... But could I modify the install-recovery.sh script to flash cwm?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
If someone could upload the script from their phone... Id really appreciate it.
Thanks
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Yes it can be done with terminal on streak just make sure you su.
I will post the script for you if i get time
Cool... I knew it was possible.
He's definatley got Su privileges.. so just need to know the appropriate commands for him to type.
Thanks

At a quick guess
Name the recovery something like recovery
copy the Recovery to the SD card
Make sure you have a terminal app on the phone
On the phone, Run the terminal application and type su press enter
Note that the terminal's text prompt will change from # to $
If it doesn't, then you haven't "rooted" the phone. Go back and try again!
In the Terminal, type
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
when its done reboot the phone
Thats off top of my head but i think its right

Android Version 2.2 -> get z4root from here
Android Version 2.2.1 and above -> GingerBreak, but you need a PC.

just search for Z4root or Ginger break depending on your android froyo version
using the XDA app, you can download the apk file direct to your phone and install and run it from there

use gingerbreak
got root and custom recover without PC
Use the Gingerbreak app to get root without a PC. I have just finished doing this.
I sent the link to myself in email from my desktop browser then downloaded with the Optimus to my /sdcard/download directory. I then installed the file using Explorer from the Market. Then just click and the Gingerbreak installs the root with the "su" program and the Superuser app. Then you can install a Busybox and Terminal from the Google Market. Check if you can be root.
I then flashed a custom AmonRa recovery without a PC for RA-thunderg-1.2.0-GNM by sending the link to myself in email and downloading to my /sdcard/download directory. I then used the busybox programs "md5sum" and "unzip" with the AmonRa zip:
Code:
cd /sdcard/download/
md5sum amon_ra_recovery_installer.zip
unzip amon_ra_recovery_installer.zip -d /sdcard/
cd ..
su
sh ./rf.sh
I hope I remembered everything. I do have root now and AmonRa recovery without a PC so that is possible. After all that, I just got the "adb" working in Linux by adding the IDs to the udev config. Of course, I could have used USB file transfer to the Optimus instead of using the email except my phone was sitting in my truck at the time. Look here for more information:

Why don't you install one from play store?es file manager will do you fine...

Hey there! About 2 months ago I first rooted my HTC Legend and unlocked my bootloader and ugraded it to hboot 1.02
I installed cyanogenmod 7.2 and all worked great. I have CWM 5.0.2.8 installed too. And supertool worked for me (zergling rushes commenced . I was also able to use eclipse for android to view my root files via the computer.
Well I cant do this anymore. I can only see my root files via the phone using Root Explorer Lite which I downloaded from the play store.
And supertool is giving me errors of read-only file system (see attached screenshot) and says pushing Superuser.apk, so it appears on my phone, I also opened it but I don't know what im supposed to do in there??
I just want to be able to access my root files via my computer. do I have to use eclipse or is there another program? what am I doing wrong here?
ATM im using a workaround where I copy files to my SD card and then using Root Explorer Lite I copy for instance ringtones to the system/media/audio/ringtones folder and that works. But I need a simpler method like drag and dropping files into this folder via my computer. How can I do this?
Thanks for you help!
You can try qtadb.

Curious as to actually know the need to use supertools when your already using a rooted rom?
I am so sure supertools was only needed to root a non rooted Rom, perhaps supertools stuffed it up....
Have you simply tried just using adb commands from cmd?
Perhaps your issue is the pc itself.
Maybe first is to try this:
Adb devices (proves phone and pc are connected).
Adb shell
Then type "su"
Then type "ls" (this gives file listing on device)
This is assuming you know anything about windows cmd, Adb and stuff like that.
Just some basics to get you started in trying to diagnose.
Hey, why not try restoring a nandroid backup you did earlier, you did do a backup yeah?

thanks this actually worked! i dont even know how/why but it did
i tried other programs like Droid Explorer or Android Commander but it didnt let me copy files to system/media/ or wutever. and it would say my phone isnt rooted.
i tried the cmd promt as ranger said with adb shell
i did the su and ls thing and it works (displays dir/files list) but thats not the problem, the problem is when i type something like this:
chmod 777 media/
and it says it cant change permissions cuz its read-only file system, the same reason supertool didnt want to work. i wan my zergling rush!!!
seriously this is weird
