Mod Edit: Unstickied, placed link in wiki:http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Nexus_One Thanks
This is an alternative approach of rooting the Nexus without touching the bootloader.
-no downgrade neccessary
-no battery modification neccessary
-no messing around with SD card slot
-you don't even have to open your phone...
Working and confirmed for ALL ROMs, including European Vodafone EPF30/FRF91, Korean FRF91, AT&T/T-Mo Stock including FRF91

Notes:
-------
- The exploit wasn't found by me (see credits), I just implemented it as a proof of concept for the Nexus One
- Basically this method should work on all currently known ROM versions.
- I tested it on EPF30, Korean FRF91, Vodafone FRF91, US Stock FRF91.
- As usual when doing this kind of stuff: DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
- It could even work on other Android devices as long as their system partition is at
/dev/block/mtdblock3/ with yaffs2 file system and there is still some space left on the system partition (without any changes).

Prerequisites:
-------
- Locked Nexus One
- Latest Android SDK incl. USB drivers
- Working ADB
- The file "freenexus.zip"

-------
Step-by-step guide:
-------
1. install android sdk & USB drivers
2. extract the content of the zip file into the tools directory of SDK (i.e. \android-sdk-windows\tools)
-> For all Newbies: Take care that you extract the files directly to the tools folder and don't create a new subdirectory freenexus within tools!!! If you did, delete the folder and extract again!!! Check twice that there is no FOLDER freenexus in your tools directory before you continue!!!
3. open a command prompt (Windows: Start, Run, "cmd", OK; Linux: Terminal)
4. change to SDK tools directory (i.e. cd \android-sdk-windows\tools)
5. connect Nexus to USB and check if debugging mode is activated
(Settings/Application/Development/USB Debugging)
6. run "adb devices" in shell and see if there is a device listed. if not back to step 5 or reinstall USB-drivers
7a. for Windows: run "freenexus.bat" in command shell (this copies the neccessary files to /data/local/tmp)
7b. for Linux or manual installation: run the following commands
Code:
adb push freenexus /data/local/tmp/freenexus
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
adb push su /data/local/tmp/su
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/freenexus
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
8. run the following commands:
Code:
adb shell
(you should see a "$" prompt now)
cd /data/local/tmp
9. on your phone go to a screen where you can easily toggle wifi (widget or settings/wireless)
10. be prepared to toggle wifi immediately after you execute the next step
11. run
Code:
./freenexus
12. toggle wifi on
13. you should see something like that:
[*] Android local root exploid (C) The Android Exploid Crew
[*] Modified by ak for HTC Nexus One
[+] Using basedir=/sqlite_stmt_journals, path=/data/local/tmp/freenexus
[+] opening NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT socket
[+] sending add message ...
[*] Try to invoke hotplug now, clicking at the wireless
[*] settings, plugin USB key etc.
[*] You succeeded if you find /system/bin/rootshell.
[*] GUI might hang/restart meanwhile so be patient.
13b) if you get "permission denied" error, you have most likely not followed the big red newbie hint after point 2. check this by entering "ls -l", if you see a "drwxr-xr-x" and not "-rwxr-xr-x" in front of the line where freenexus is listed you did not follow properly. Search the posts in the thread on how to correct this.
14. run
Code:
rootshell
15. if you succeeded you will be asked for a password, if not try again from step 10
16. enter the password "freenexus"
17. now you should see a "#" as a prompt -> you are root now
18. run the following commands:
Code:
./busybox cp busybox /system/bin
chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
busybox cp Superuser.apk /system/app
busybox cp su /system/bin
chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
rm /system/bin/rootshell
exit
exit
19. Check if you keep root rights:
Code:
adb shell
su
20. after you executed the su command the Superuser app on your device should ask you for allowance
21. you should see the "#" prompt again, if you didn't get that try su again
22. done

Comments:

- General
If you are not planning to wipe your data partition (what you probably will do when installing CM6 first time) you should think about deleting all the temp files still lying in /data/local/tmp (for safety reasons and to have more space on /data):
Code:
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp
rm busybox
rm su
rm Superuser.apk
rm freenexus
rm flash_image (will only exist if you executed the steps below in recovery section)
- Installation of Custom Recovery
If you only want root rights you are done here. If you want to install custom ROMs you have to install
a custom recovery first. Easiest way would be to download "ROM Manager" from the market. There are plenty of tutorials on how to install custom recovery/ROM at xda.
Edit: It is safer to install the recovery manually. In this case or for those of you running into problems with installing custom recovery with ROM Manager (doesn't stick) you can continue with
these steps (without remount of system partition, now tested successfully):
1) Download recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img to the root directory of your SD-Card
- Note: UnMount your SD-Card after copying these files, but keep your phone plugged in
- or don't mount SD-Card at all and push the file via adb to /sdcard
2) Save file "flash_image" to sdk tools directory:
3) In your terminal run
Code:
adb push flash_image /data/local/tmp/flash_image
adb shell
su
- At this point, it will hang until you choose "Allow" on your phone with the SuperUser app pop-up
- $ should now be replaced with #
5) run the following commands:
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system[/COLOR]
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 755 flash_image
[COLOR="Red"]./flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img[/COLOR]
rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p
(and if everything worked fine:)
rm flash_image
Alternatively you can continue with step 9 and then steps 16-24 from the old rooting method tutorial
to manually install Amon_RA's recovery. You will also need the file flash_image for that (link taken from HBOOT thread).
- HBOOT
If you rooted from a Korean Rom or have installed the latest Vodafone Rom via PASSIMG you probably have
HBOOT 0.35 which makes it currently difficult to install Cyanogenmod (there is an assertion failure in the install script, at least with CM6 RC1/2. Maybe future versions of CM6 will include HBOOT 0.35 in the script) or other custom ROMs. (You are still on 0.33 if you just installed the Vodafone OTA Update)
There is a tutorial to revert HBOOT here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=726258
Instead of using the EPF30 image you can also use any other PASSIMG file (at least if it has HBOOT 0.33,
otherwise this step wouldn't make sense...)
Note that when flashing a PASSIMG with a different HBOOT version there is a reboot after the HBOOT has been flashed, then after reboot the PASSIMG will be loaded again and the rest of the image will be flashed.
To check HBOOT and Radio version: press and hold trackball while turning on the phone. To exit select Reboot with Vol+/- and press Power button.
Caution:
After you have reverted your HBOOT, you have lost your root rights and you are back on stock recovery.
But you can (or have to) repeat the above procedure to get root rights back.
Edit:
The downgrading also downgrades your radio!!! Before installing CM6 you have to flash a Froyo Radio!
Latest one can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=723839
-------
Troubleshooting:
-------
After trying to flash a custom ROM with ROM Manager one user wasn't able to boot the phone normally and also no longer able to boot to recovery. In this rare case try to download a compatible PASSIMG file:
For example EPF30 (Europe Vodafone 2.1)
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Pas...ogle_WWE_1.14.1700.1_EPF30_release_signed.zip
or FRF91 (Europe Vodafone 2.2):
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Pas...on_VF_2.15.151.5_R_FRF91_MFG_Shipment_ROM.zip (<-this one is currently a zip in zip. You have to extract it once to get the working PASSIMG.zip)
(Appropriate US-PASSIMGs can also be found on shipped-roms.com, most likely EPE76)
Rename the file to PASSIMG.zip (case sensitive, Windows users take care that the file isn't called PASSIMG.zip.zip hidden extension)
Copy it to main folder of SD card.
Boot phone into Bootloader mode (press and hold trackball when turning on the phone, until fastboot mode starts)
Select Bootloader mode by pressing power button.
The bootloader should then start to analyse the PASSIMG.zip and ask you afterwards to install it.
You're phone (not your SD) will be completely wiped after the procedure but should work again (and can be rooted again...)
sweet!! been waiting for this! will try it tomorrow as soon as i wake up! will report back then!

Massive thanks.
Hi, I have a Italian Vodafone Nexus One with FRF91, i have followed all the steps and now in my apps there is Superuser Permission with green light. It means that i have root rights? Can I install Cyanogen Mod now? Thanks, excuse my English.
Worked perfectly on a stock AT&T N1 with FRF91. Thanks!
Excellent tutorial step by step...great work!
Can i change the password at the end?
So once gaining root, I can flash a custom recovery with rom manager without braking/unlocking the boot loader?
@fc_themaster:
if the superuser app popped up at step 19/20 then you have root rights. you can try to install ROM Manager from the market and install a custom recovery with that porgram. it also needs root rights so superuser should pop up again at that point.
@PSeeCO: you don't need to change a password. the password was only used for the temporary rootshell which you (hopefully) deletetd with the command "rm /system/bin/rootshell" in step 18. From that point on root rights are controlled via the Superuser app. If you install an already rooted custom ROM it is obsolete anyway.
@jivemaster: yes, we can! just use ROM Manager from the market to install custom recovery.

After dumping my X2 for a month, I came back & found out that they (the ones running 2.3.6) can be rooted now. Before, I had to follow the following instructions for a "Fake" root:
Extract the ADB-Fastboot package and root image to your C:\ Drive under a new folder titled “root”
Put your device into Fastboot mode: – Turn off your device. – Hold down the power button and downward volume button until you see “Fastboot” on your screen – Push the upward volume button
Connect your phone via USB cable. Allow Windows to install the new hardware if this is the first time you have used Fastboot mode.
Open your command prompt (Start >> run “cmd” >> enter)
Type the following commands
cd C:/root
fastboot flash preinstall root.img
fastboot reboot
Enable USB debugging (Settings >> Applications >> Debugging)
Type the following commands
adb shell
/preinstall/su
Allow Superuser access on the phone when prompted
Type the following commands
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
cp /preinstall/su /system/bin/su
chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
PATH=/system/bin:$PATH pm install /preinstall/Superuser.apk
My question is, how can I undo what I did in order to root "correctly"?
Thanks.
Just in case someone is
This page details how to root the Fujitsu Arrows TAB F-01D.

it works.
Now if only somebody can post the firmware updates..
English instructions
Well, with some help from Google Translate and some creative interpretations, I managed to do this and thought I'd provide some English instructions for others (with some added comments)
DISCLAIMER: AS USUAL, YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT FOLLOWING THESE ACTIONS (AND ESPECIALLY FOLLOWING THEM INCORRECTLY) CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE (I.E. YOUR DEVICE WILL STOP WORKING, POSSIBLY PERMANENTLY). I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THAT MAY ARISE FROM YOU FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS, YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Downloads
1. Windows -- the Arrows TAB USB driver Download.
2. Easy rooting toolkit (ERT) for Arrows Tab F-01D (ver 1.0) Download
3. goroh_kun's lsm_disabler.ko Download
Info
4. A su binary, such as the one found in DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip
5. Android SDK platform tools. adb(.exe) (and in Windows, specifically: AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll)
Preparation
1. Unzip ert4F01D.zip, and in the subdirectory 'files' place:
* adb.exe (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* AdbWinApi.dll (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* AdbWinUsbApi.dll (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* lsm_disabler.ko (from step 3 above)
* su (from step 5 above)
2. Before connecting the USB, in Settings -> Applications -> Development:
* Check (tick) USB debugging ("Debug mode when USB is connected")
* Check (tick) Stay awake ("Screen will never sleep while charging")
3. Set up the USB drivers and Android Development stuff if you haven't already. I don't use Windows so can't help with this.
The Dirty Work
At this stage, you can run the batch file. Since I don't use Windows, I did the steps by hand, so you'll have to correlate your actions appropriately (I can't read Japanese either, so your guess is as good as mine ).
1. On your PC:
adb shell "mv /data/local/calib.dat /data/local/calib.dat_"
adb shell "ln -s /data/local.prop /data/local/calib.dat"
2. On the tablet, go into Google Maps, touch the GPS icon ("locate me" icon) on the top right hand corner, and then touch the BACK key to exit.
3. On your PC:
adb shell "echo ro.kernel.qemu=1 > /data/local.prop"
adb shell "rm /data/local/calib.dat"
adb shell "mv /data/local/calib.dat_ /data/local/calib.dat"
adb reboot
5. Once the device has fully rebooted, on your PC:
adb shell "mkdir /data/local/lib"
adb push files\lsm_disabler.ko /data/local/lib/
adb shell "insmod /data/local/lib/lsm_disabler.ko"
adb shell "mkdir /data/local/bin"
adb shell "echo '#!/system/bin/sh' > /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "echo '/system/xbin/soff' >> /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "mount -o rw,remount /system /system"
adb shell "ln -s /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh"
adb push files\su /system/xbin/
adb shell "chown root.root /system/xbin/su"
adb shell "chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su"
adb shell "echo insmod /data/local/lib/lsm_disabler.ko > /system/xbin/soff"
adb shell "chmod 755 /system/xbin/soff"
adb shell "mount -o ro,remount /system /system"
adb shell "echo > /data/local.prop"
6. I think at this point I was just meant to exit the lock screen.
7. adb reboot
8. Congratulations. You're now rooted. Go to the Play Store and download "Superuser" (by ChainsDD) and "BusyBox" (by Stericson). If you decide to buy BusyBox Pro, do not check the "symlinks" option in version 8.0, otherwise it's game over (no wifi, no adb shell, no root, no remount). It's a pain, but not impossible to repair this situation, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26964465. I've emailed the author and I hope future versions won't trash the system so easily.
After all this, I'd suggest download Titanium Backup for Root users, backing everything up, and uninstall the all the bloatware that came with the device. Read up elsewhere about Titanium Backup.
Let me know if this helped you! Not sure how many other English speakers are using this device
Thank you for this wonderful post! A few questions:
1.) I use the F-01D but I don't live in Japan. One of the gripes I've been having about this tablet is that there doesn't seem to be anyway for me to get firmware updates unless I go there. Once rooted am I able to use Market Enabler to fake a carrier and update my tablet?
2.) This is slightly off on a tangent but since I can't find much English material about this tablet anway I might as well ask here. Another one of my gripes about the tablet is it doesn't seem to handle video very well. even 720p video doesn't play smoothly on it. On most of the software I download, it seems hardware acceleration is not enabled? Is this a hardware issue, or is it blocked by the software. And if the latter would rooting the tablet help resolve this issue; or is there any other solution? From what I've read the OMAP processor in this thing should easily be able to handle 1080p video right?
Many thanks! :good:

Just wanted to say thank you again. The rooting worked perfectly, though it took me a while to manually type in all the commands. For people who want to try this, you do need to install busybox before any other programs such as rootchecker will properly verify that your device is actually rooted.
And just for anyone wondering - rooting and using MarketEnabler has NOT been able to resolve the issue of not being able to update the software overseas...
Hey, sorry for the late reply, busy times :>
Glad the post helped you! I know I was super amped to finally get rood and get rid of all the bloatware I couldn't even understand. Things have definitely been a lot smoother since then (but far from perfect, also dying for an ICS upgrade). As for your questions:

From playing around, the requirements seem to imply that you *have to* upgrade via cellular data from a Docomo SIM card, and it can't be done via roaming, so yeah, it seems like you have to physically go to Japan to upgrade Your market enabler idea was a good one, but since you tried that (I'm assuming using the Docomo info), I guess the upgrade app is using a different source to check where you're at. Ultimately we need to somehow get hold of an update.zip (or other file) that can be run through the Recovery system (which does exist!).
2.) This is slightly off on a tangent but since I can't find much English material about this tablet anway I might as well ask here.

Haven't tried 1080p, but after some tinkering I did get 720p playing. I use MX Player, and although they said it would download needed hardware decoders automatically, it didn't, and things improved a lot after I downloaded the MX Player ARMv7 codec. Video plays great, but to get sound, I had to run the sound through the software decoder (just tap the music note icon, and choose "Track #1 (S/W decoder)".
On the other hand, I found the hardware decoding often gets stuck (relaunching MX player just gives you a waiting indicator forever)... and the only way to fix it is a reboot. Since this happens quite often, it's incredibly annoying, and I'm hoping an upgrade will fix it. Let me know if this doesn't happen to you. Also have some very intermittent wifi issues, some things work fine (speedtest, etc) but apps like streaming radio, some work fine (spotify) and others don't work at all (di radio). Some things work fine for a while after a reboot.

Incidentally, here's what happens if I try update via recovery (with no update files). Maybe it will help someone. Googling most of the stuff came up with nothing. The ** in the middle somewhere is stuff I couldn't read, guess I should go back and do it again but this is from quite a while ago.

Interesting situation...
First off...Kinslayer81, thanks for posting this. I found the original in Japanese, and was not eager to try to translate it. Thanks for putting in the work.
For everyone (especially if you got this to work) - when I went through the step, I keep getting a "permissions denied" message. Whether it's the ERT4F01D batch file, or typing the commands in... I get "permissions denied".
Did you guys encounter this?
Glad it helped you On which step are you getting the error? Any strange output on any of the preceding steps?
Every step is important, to be done in the exact same order, e.g. loading google maps and pressing the 'my location' icon, etc.

First off...Kinslayer81, thanks for posting this. I found the original in Japanese, and was not eager to try to translate it. Thanks for putting in the work.
For everyone (especially if you got this to work) - when I went through the step, I keep getting a "permissions denied" message. Whether it's the ERT4F01D batch file, or typing the commands in... I get "permissions denied".
Did you guys encounter this?

Permission denied
Oh I know... I'm not new to the game. I've stalked these boards for a while now... This is my first tablet though.
I've tried running both the ERT4F01D batch... and the manual input.
I get it from the batch file, as soon as I tell it to "RUN"... "Permissions Denied"
From manual input - LINE 2: adb shell "ln -s /data/local.prop /data/local/calib.dat" = "Permissions Denied"
Like there's some additional admin privilege I don't have. Hmmmmm....
And here's an additional kicker... the tablet auto-reboots each and every time. I've tried it a number of times (started over from the top), same result each time.

I must admit, I don't have any great ideas.
So you can move the file in the first step no problem, and just the attempt to symlink gives you the error?
What is the output of "adb shell ls -la /data/local/".
When does the auto reboot occur?

Well... this is getting a little interesting...
LS command - no problem (included image)
Decided to have another shot at it... and I was able to get a little further. Still encountered a problem
Now, the INSMOD command failed... "Operation not permitted"

Do you mind me asking, how did you set your file system to read-write? I have the same error as you were seeing but it's not allowing me to remount as read-write...
Can you confirm what command you used please?
thanks
Sorry again for late reply
Dakedo_Baby, I've looked at your stuff a few times and it's not obvious to me where things are going wrong. I again need some more info to try get a better idea of what's going on:
1) Before the first reboot, let me know the output of: adb shell "cat /data/local.prop"
2) After the reboot, let me know the output of: adb shell id
As for the file systems, well, /data should be already mounted rw, and /system should be mounted ro until you remount it. You can see how each is mounted with just "adb mount".

The command to remount the /system partition as read-write is: adb shell "mount -o rw,remount /system /system"
Of course, you should only be executing that step as part of the given sequence and in the correct order. You won't be able to execute the command until after your first reboot in the instructions, after which adb should still be running as root.
Any good Custom ICS roms you guys recommend after rooting the Arrows Tab?
ICS..Hurray!!!
Just found this out in Fujitsu site:
http://spf.fmworld.net/fujitsu/c/update/nttdocomo/f-01d/update1/top/index.html
There is a 4.0.3 download available. Click the 3rd Button (Green) downloads the zip package.
The 2nd link has howto from PC.
Still not sure if this will work, but trying out.
Also may lose root..and whatever else..So keeping my fingers crossed.
Google translation link
http://translate.google.com/transla...update/nttdocomo/f-01d/update1/top/index.html
Will post how it goes.
I made a new thread for this, since it's a different topic and you'll lose root too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32200671
insmod lsm-disabler.so to remount /system rw
Back to the original topic... what I maybe didn't notice before is that the stock kernel blocks even root users from remounting /system as rw. So in case you ever need rw access to /system again, obviously you'll first have to be root, and afterwards you'll need to "insmod lsm-disabler.so" (as per the original instructions) before you can "busybox mount -o remount,rw /system" (or run any root app that remounts the system partition).

Well, with some help from Google Translate and some creative interpretations, I managed to do this and thought I'd provide some English instructions for others (with some added comments)
DISCLAIMER: AS USUAL, YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT FOLLOWING THESE ACTIONS (AND ESPECIALLY FOLLOWING THEM INCORRECTLY) CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE (I.E. YOUR DEVICE WILL STOP WORKING, POSSIBLY PERMANENTLY). I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THAT MAY ARISE FROM YOU FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS, YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Downloads
1. Windows -- the Arrows TAB USB driver Download.
2. Easy rooting toolkit (ERT) for Arrows Tab F-01D (ver 1.0) Download
3. goroh_kun's lsm_disabler.ko Download
Info
4. A su binary, such as the one found in DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip
5. Android SDK platform tools. adb(.exe) (and in Windows, specifically: AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll)
Preparation
1. Unzip ert4F01D.zip, and in the subdirectory 'files' place:
* adb.exe (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* AdbWinApi.dll (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* AdbWinUsbApi.dll (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* lsm_disabler.ko (from step 3 above)
* su (from step 5 above)
2. Before connecting the USB, in Settings -> Applications -> Development:
* Check (tick) USB debugging ("Debug mode when USB is connected")
* Check (tick) Stay awake ("Screen will never sleep while charging")
3. Set up the USB drivers and Android Development stuff if you haven't already. I don't use Windows so can't help with this.
The Dirty Work
At this stage, you can run the batch file. Since I don't use Windows, I did the steps by hand, so you'll have to correlate your actions appropriately (I can't read Japanese either, so your guess is as good as mine ).
1. On your PC:
adb shell "mv /data/local/calib.dat /data/local/calib.dat_"
adb shell "ln -s /data/local.prop /data/local/calib.dat"
2. On the tablet, go into Google Maps, touch the GPS icon ("locate me" icon) on the top right hand corner, and then touch the BACK key to exit.
3. On your PC:
adb shell "echo ro.kernel.qemu=1 > /data/local.prop"
adb shell "rm /data/local/calib.dat"
adb shell "mv /data/local/calib.dat_ /data/local/calib.dat"
adb reboot
5. Once the device has fully rebooted, on your PC:
adb shell "mkdir /data/local/lib"
adb push files\lsm_disabler.ko /data/local/lib/
adb shell "insmod /data/local/lib/lsm_disabler.ko"
adb shell "mkdir /data/local/bin"
adb shell "echo '#!/system/bin/sh' > /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "echo '/system/xbin/soff' >> /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "mount -o rw,remount /system /system"
adb shell "ln -s /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh"
adb push files\su /system/xbin/
adb shell "chown root.root /system/xbin/su"
adb shell "chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su"
adb shell "echo insmod /data/local/lib/lsm_disabler.ko > /system/xbin/soff"
adb shell "chmod 755 /system/xbin/soff"
adb shell "mount -o ro,remount /system /system"
adb shell "echo > /data/local.prop"
6. I think at this point I was just meant to exit the lock screen.
7. adb reboot
8. Congratulations. You're now rooted. Go to the Play Store and download "Superuser" (by ChainsDD) and "BusyBox" (by Stericson). If you decide to buy BusyBox Pro, do not check the "symlinks" option in version 8.0, otherwise it's game over (no wifi, no adb shell, no root, no remount). It's a pain, but not impossible to repair this situation, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26964465. I've emailed the author and I hope future versions won't trash the system so easily.
After all this, I'd suggest download Titanium Backup for Root users, backing everything up, and uninstall the all the bloatware that came with the device. Read up elsewhere about Titanium Backup.
Let me know if this helped you! Not sure how many other English speakers are using this device

Hi friends. I have bought a HCL me U1 tab : 7" display, 512 mb ram, running android 4.0.3 ICS on it. But it does not supports Google play on it and I am pretty upset. Tried to root it with z4root, gingerbreak but nothing works.. Please help.
yup, Im stuck with this tab too, its good tab though.
IT lacks gapps and has few bugs, I hope we get a way to root it soon, or a custom rom will be much better
somebody ..help us
Have you tried SuperOneClick and/or Unlock Root? Both tools are capable of rooting a vast number of devices, so it's worth a shot.
One click ==> yes, will try another one soon. One click doesnt seem to work though. Any help here would be much appreciated
---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 PM ----------
ok unlock root gets stuck on 'try to get shell root permissions'. It recognizes the device and all, but gets stuck here

Where do I download the Superuser app from? Do I have to download it in my PC and then somehow install it into my U1? Or Do I download and install it directly into my U1??
I'm stuck at the superuser app part... And couldn't find yaffs explorer in the HCL ME market... There's no other Market in my tablet yet!
I'm pretty new to such things, It would be great if you help me out!
Thanks!

hey can i use 64 bit os?? any other method for 64 bit os??
Hi guys
I've imported the SH-06D from Japan and the phone is running great, however I'd like to remove some system apps etc to help speed up the phone (it's still on 2.3.5) and obviously tweak it as well.
I know there is an existing thread on the SH-01D (predecessor to the SH-06D) but I'm wondering if anyone has successfully rooted the SH-06D and if so, is there an (easy) process to do this?
Another reason I want to root, is to install the UI from the upcoming Evangelion Nerv edition of the SH-06D that is due to be released in a few days.
ICS for the SH-06D is just around the corner (due to be released in July) but I'd realy appreciate any help, assistance or tips in rooting the phone as it is now.
Cheers! :fingers-crossed:
Anyone?
:-(
here is a link to root the sh-06d :
http://itsuki.ddo.jp/gadget/index.php?SH-06D
THANK YOU!
Have you tried this method and does it work? Can you assist me in following those directions?
Cheers

I want to know untill now has SH-06D been rooted?
I wish someone could dump ROM or launcher from SH-06 NERV version:fingers-crossed:
I'm working on the translation for root on Sharp Aquos SH-06D.
Please give me one or two more days!
That is highly impossible, having full root in J Phone are hard enough. Unlocking the bootloader is a wet dream for almost everyone who likes J phone

Any suggestions?
I got the Nerv edition
Hey man, how did the rooting go? I ordered the Nerv edition of this phone, and I want to root it (mainly to pair my sixaxis controller for psx emulation) but wanted to consult with you first as a precaution.
Here is the a rough translation of the root guide found here:
http://itsuki.ddo.jp/gadget/index.php?SH-06D
Big thanks to testnumero for the help!
Please don't ask me directly for help. I don't own this phone.
A quick look at root
• With root you can freeze preinstalled bloatware and backup application settings and game save data.
• 3D content from /system can be played on other devices and 3DTVs.
Unresponsive apps can be frozen which will help the device run smoother and have a longer battery life.
Applications which are frozen disappear from your drawer making the device look cleaner and keeping your mind at ease.
• The process is similar to the one used for SH-01D.
• If an update patch is released or the Android 4.0 summer update is released then this guide will no longer be of help.
(Make sure your device is the following: Android Ver. 2.3.5 Build No. 01.00.03)
• If your device becomes a paperweight I won’t be held responsible.
• Follow this guide at your own risk.
↑
Preparations – Before you begin
• Install Android SDK and SHARP ADB USB drivers and make to use ADB.
• 「Settings」→「Applications」→「Development」→「USB Debugging」 checked.
• SH-06D and micro USB cable to connect to your PC
↑
Required Files
• Download "shdisphook" from the following link and extract.
http://goo.gl/Bs6Iq
• Download shsdgetroot-omap4.zip from the following link and extract.
http://www1.axfc.net/uploader/File/so/78144
• Download shbootgetroot-su.lzh from the following link and extract.
http://www.mediafire.com/?6i0n32jlwbxe8cp
• Keep all extracted files in the same folder.
↑
Creating files
• Create a file named "shdisphook.bat" in the folder with the extracted files.
Copy and paste the following and save.
adb push onload.sh /data/local/
adb push libsdservice_jni.so /data/local/
adb push shdisphook /data/local/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/onload.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/shdisphook
adb reboot
adb wait-for-device shell /data/local/shdisphook
pause
• Create a file named "oncmd.sh" and put the following in the description.
(Save the line break as LF)
chmod 777 /cache
chmod 666 /cache/recovery
• Replace the contents of the file "installfile.cmd" with the following and save.
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs rootfs /"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 777 /sbin"
adb push su /sbin
adb push busybox /sbin
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chown 0.0 /sbin/su"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chown 0.0 /sbin/busybox"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 6755 /sbin/su"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 755 /sbin/busybox"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/sbin/busybox --install -s /sbin"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 755 /sbin"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/mount -o ro,remount -t rootfs rootfs /"
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/
adb shell /system/bin/pm install -t -f -r /data/local/Superuser.apk
adb shell /system/bin/rm /data/local/Superuser.apk
exit /b

Step 1
• Open command prompt to the folder with the extracted files and navigate to "shdisphook".
Execute "shdisphook.bat". (You can also just double click on the .bat file)
• The device will reboot so just wait for the [Press any key to continue] message to appear.
If more than a few minutes have passed and nothing has appeared then, force close and execute "shdisphook.bat" again.
(When you fail your PC will reboot or your SH-06D WiFi will start. There is a high rate of success when you immediately unlock the lock screen for your device when it goes to sleep.)
↑
Step 2
• Open command prompt and send oncmd.sh to SH-06D to change permissions
adb push oncmd.sh /data/local/oncmd.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/oncmd.sh
• 「Settings」→「microSD and device storage」→「Unmount microSD」 This will execute the file "oncmd.sh" , which was sent to the device earlier.
(Cancel the message for 「Unmount microSD」)
• Enter the following commands.
adb shell mv /cache/recovery /cache/recovery_
adb shell ln -s /dev/shsd /cache/recovery
• Execute the following adb shell ls -l /cache and if you see the following message you have succeed.
drwxrwx--- root root 2011-11-11 03:39 lost+found
drw-rw-rw- system cache 2012-01-24 10:48 recovery_
lrwxrwxrwx shell shell 2012-03-02 13:24 recovery -> /dev/shsd
• Next execute adb shell ls -l /dev/shsd you should get the following message if you were successful.
crw-rw-rw- system cache 231, 0 2012-04-23 02:01 shsd
↑
Step 3
• Execute adb push shsdgetroot-omap4 /data/local
• Execute adb shell /system/bin/chmod 755 /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4
• Execute adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -v -m -u
• The “# “mark will appear there will be no response. Close command prompt for now.
• Execute installfile.cmd
• Check if you have root with the following adb shell→su
↑
After you reboot
• After you reboot you will lose root rights so execute shdisphook.bat→Cancel Unmount microSD →execute installfile.cmd and you should have root again.
The reason why you cannot do a clean wipe or nothing happen is because the recovery section has been move out into another location, causing it to not loading the recovery correctly.
Check with SH-01d part, I have asked similar question there and I revert the recovery in order to wipe the phone..
You need to rearrange the following section like on the sh-01d when you hit this part:
(Following is Original command that you relocated the recovery for root)
adb shell mv /cache/recovery /cache/recovery_
adb shell ln -s /dev/shsd /cache/recovery
And replace with the revert command found on sh-01d thread. You will need to redo all the steps from step 1 to step 2 and STOP AFTER YOU REVERT the RECOVERY.
You should be able to do a full wipe with no issue then. DO NOT POWER DOWN or RESET!!! You will have to REDO it again as it REQUIRES SHDSIHOOK to input shell command.
Hope it helps
waiting！！！！！！！！！！
