This is a port of scrosler's CleanTool 2.1.1 . All credit to scrosler, nils, and everyone else I don't know that contributed to the work found herein. I'm just the script monkey that whipped up the Linux version.
YOU MUST HAVE THE LINUX ANDROID SDK INSTALLED TO USE THIS
If you can't figure out the Android SDK here are a few helpful links
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/developer/android-sdk-install-guide/#.TuaS3lxjgSM
So now that you have the SDK installed...
1) Unzip Cleantool_Linux_v1.zip
2) Open a command window, change directory into your Cleantool_Linux directory
3) Run ./cleantool.sh

Update: Yes!!!! It works perfectly!!!! I am soooo happy! I can't thank you enough. I really do appreciate your help and scrosler's.
Now I need to find out how to get "wireless tether" to work. Any suggestions?
Sweet ! Now I just have to get my ADB fixed...
Yeah, I know right! I have been running Linux (ubuntu from 2008- Feb 2011, then switched to Linux Mint Debian Edition from Feb 2011-now) all of my computers for years now and every time I get ready to root and mess with my phone, I have to go through Windows inside of Virtualbox or find a way to run the rooting script through a terminal and ADB. Fortunately, MrSmith was here to save the day!!!
On a different note, I was able to install both "wireless tether" and "wifi tether" and get both apps to run and broadcast the wifi signal. When I try to connect to it on my laptop, it tries but then fails with "no connection". Not sure what the problem is yet, but I am playing with "wifi tether" and it's menu's to see if I can find a solution. It has the options for you to "Change your Device profile" which I am hoping might help. (probably not, but it used to help on my old droid x)
Looks good man!

I keep meaning to try this. I need to re-temp root tonight, then I'll try out the tether products as well. Did you freeze tetheringguard?
Just an FYI, I linked to this thread as the "Official" Linux Port
Much appreciated although I'd hate to see the unofficial one.. haha

I tried to get it to work for about 3 hours without freezing tetheringguard. Then as my research continued, I noticed that everytime I tried the wifi tether app, the tetheringguard service/app would be running when I checked my system monitor. So I disabled it by adding it to the script. I did not disable mobile hotspot, but maybe I should. I tried to get it to work for about another 3 hours after disabling tetheringguard and still NO GO. But as to not mis-lead you, the wifi tether app actually successfully broadcasts the wifi signal, the problem is that when I try to connect to it using my laptop, it connects with a "no connection" (red x on ethernet symbol) and then immediately disconnects. The wifi tether app doesn't show that the laptop ever connected.
Here are some strange things:
1. scrosler PM'd me and said that he successfully got the newest pre alpha build (assuming it is wifi_tether_v3_1-pre108.apk) to work last night. He said that the only things that he changed in the settings is checking the MSS Clamping and Routing Fix. He said that he PM'd me using the tethering wifi!!! aghhhhhh
2. why does my linux nm applet show the ssid signal from wifi tether as having both the wireless icon and the Ethernet jack icon?
3. why does it connect at all to the Ethernet jack icon, even though it immediately says no connection?
4. I would have to say that the behavior is similar to what happens when you try to run the Mobile Hotspot app on the rezound without paying for the service. When you click it, it spins the "waiting wheel" and then pops up the message about calling Verizon to get that feature.
I hope all this helps us to somehow figure out what the problem is. I am very frustrated at how easy scrosler said his works!!!!

Its time to try connecting to another device.
Do you have any other WiFi devices you can try with?
Had to buy a Christmas tree last night so I was out of it. I'll get on this tonight. I run Ubuntu at home (as well as Win XP an Win7) so I can test this out from a bunch of devices. I already have tetheringguard and hotspot disabled because I'm never paying them for the privilege of using my data connection the way they want me to. I do have wifi tether installed already (3.1 beta 7) so I'll also play around with scripting the temp root locally while I'm at work just to see if i can get it to work...
And they pay me for this ...

That will be awesome! I feel the exact same way about the "privilege" of something I already pay unlimited for! (we have to be careful with our comments about paying Verizon for their Mobile Hotspot feature, because scrosler told me that he DOES PAY for it!!! And we wouldn't want to upset him )
Between the three of us, I'm sure we can get it to work.
Really!!! You lucky dog...

Just a heads up I don't know if the PS3 supports Ad-Hoc networking. I've never tried with the PS3 or Xbox 360 but I know it works for all of my laptops.
I'm having problems getting this working on my Macbook Pro with Lion. I've tried both the Mac Android SDK and the Linux one. I was able to get the Mac SDK to run and install the extra programs the links you posted suggest, but executing your script fails. As I recall it said something like failed to execute binary. Where do I need to put your script in relation to the SDK? I was able to get temp root and cleean by installing the Windows version on my computer at work, but it would be nice to be able to regain temp root when I'm travelling with the laptop. Thanks for your work on this.

Try this: copy ADB from your installed SDK into the Cleantool folder. If you can post the errors/screenshot because it's always easier to troubleshoot that way.
Success
Thanks. That seems to work.

Found a thread where a member had success bluetooth tethering his phone to the viewsonic gtab using tnt lite.
I am using vegan 5.1 and have gotten part way there, but having issues with ifconfig.
The script recommended was:
pand --connect <remote BT device hex address>
ifconfig bnep0 down
dhcpcd bnep0
setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
I can get "pand" to connect to my blackberry, however when I run "ifconfig bnep0", it returns "no device found".
Does anyone know when devices are present in the vegan build, can someone confirm "bnep0" is present on the tnt build?

I had posted on my success with this (Something I found elsewhere on XDA... Not my own).
Since then, I've had mixed results. I can't seem to make it connect reliably.
I've now using Vegan Gingerbread and Pershoots latest kernel.
Last night I tried the gscript script I posted and got errors. However if I go into terminal emulator and enter the commands manually I can make it connect.
A couple of commands that might help you diagnose your issues from terminal:
pand -l : Lists your connections. Should show bnep0 connected to your phone.
netcfg : I've read that ifconfig is somewhat limited in androids linux version. netcfg will show you more results.
running netcfg I see several networking devices, but bnep0 is not one of them. I am have tried TNT, vegantab beta 5.1 and the latest experimental version.
Did you install the driver/modules for bnep0 or have to do any configuration to interface with this device? Because it does not appear to be a stock device in any version of froyo/gingerbread I download.

No, I did not have to install any modules. This worked for me both under TNTL 4.25, Vegan Ginger, and somewhat under TNTL5.0 (I had the BNEP0 entry, but had issues connecting to my phone).
I suspect bnep0 will not show up until you issue 'pand --connect <Phone ID>'
At that point the bluetooth networking device should show up.
You also need to be running some sort of Bluetooth DUN client on your phone. I've been doing this with my Droid X. I do not know the process for Blackberry's.
on my X, I've used Tethering for Root Users (unreliable for me on bluetooth... but does sometimes work) and PDANET (seems to work fine on bluetooth).

From terminal, when i issue pand --connect xxxx, or even pand -l, it gives me error "Failed to open control socket: Operation no permitted"
Am I missing anything?
I stumbled upon this thread through Google, but I'm actually trying to do the same thing on a rooted Nook Color. Before you issue any of the commands, you will need to issue the command su to gain superuser access. The pand command should then work.
I can see on my phone that the Nook Color establishes a Bluetooth connection after the pand command. However, I'm having the same issue as the OP with regard to the ifconfig command.
-I have run hcitool scan and found my bluetooth device's address.
-My blackberry is paired with my android,, dial up networking enabled and PDAnet bluetooth DUN enabled.
-I can pair and tether to my blackberry using windows 7, but I need to put *99***1# for it to dial (like a dial up modem). How do I do this in linux, does pand support "dialing" commands?
There is a thread where a person used pppd and rcomm to dial and tether and are using the *99***1# dial requirement (google "tether blackberry 8830 rfcomm0" )
TIP: use "hcitool scan" to find the hex address of your bluetooth phone!
I am playing around with the following commands:
"sdptool search dun" (searchs for a bluetooth DUN device and shows which channel it's using!
rfcomm to bind and connect
and pppd to connect
I can get rfcomm to show connect via channel 6 and tty connected
any ideas how to use pppd to tether?

Make sure you are root when doing this? (enter SU at terminal before issuing commands)
dony71 said:

See the script listed a few posts back. I do this with gscript lite (it does need SU permission).
This technique does work for, but its not terribly reliable.
I start my DUN server on my phone (PDANet on my DroidX works best).
I then run the script from gscript.
I usually get the 'device not found' error as quoted above.
I just keep re-running the script and eventually I'll get a 'can't assign requested address'. At this point I am actually connected and can browse through the phone.
My guess is that it takes some amount of time from the first 'pand --connect <>' to actually make the connection. That's why we keep getting the device not found error.
At some point in me running the script over and over, the connection goes live and assigns a DHCP address. The NEXT time I run it, the IP is already assigned, thus the can't assign requested address error.
I think if I (or someone who has more linux experience) scripted a somewhat smarter script that actually waited and/or checked for connection, this process could be improved on.
However, what little bit I use it, I am able to make it work.
FYI I have done this on Vegan 5.1, tnt 4.X series, and now I'm on Vegan Ginger with Pershoot kernel.

If this wasn't answered, I found I had to issue su root in the terminal before attempting this.
My issue right now is I can't get a bluetooth connection. I can pair the phone and tablet but it won't stay connected.
I still haven't seen any threads from anyone who has gotten anything but another Android phone to work. Even the reply a few up from this note indicated a DroidX not a BlackBerry.

zaphod,
i know why bluetooth DUN working on your site but not on everybody else
this is because you're using DroidX which support bluetooth PAN
blackberry is not supporting bluetooth PAN
that's why pand --connect <bluetooth address> never ever succeed
and android kernel will not create /dev/bnep0
read this link below
daemon for running bluetooth DUN is dund
daemon for running bluetooth PAN is pand
however none of gtab rom has dund command
https://sites.google.com/a/android.com/opensource/projects/bluetooth-faq
If someone can find away to make this in to a easy app to use they would be the tablet god! and I would happily pay $10 for the app
I am willing to pay $300 if you can program the app
I tried tethering the Samsung Code to the G Tablet following this video
On the GTab I'm able to pair it but not connect. I'm stuck, is it not possible to do it then. the phone is a Windows phone and it says:
Status: Device Setup finished. On the PC, connect Bloethooth PAN.
My GTab Bluethoot settings say Paired but not connected.

See the post by dony71 above. The blackberry doesn't support PAN, and the G Tablet doesn't support DUN. They both have to support at least one of the same profiles so that they can talk to one another..

And yes you have to be on same net. Never researched why. It's never been a problem for me since my wifi and pc and on same net.
Yea. Wouldn't care about the same network but I'm still in school and was hoping to have access to my home PC, XP with eclipse, before intro to Java have the end of this semester to figure that out though. Hopefully I'll find something that can sit side by side with this so I can easily switch when I get home because synergy is too cool G'Luck with the update ^_^

For remote into your PC you can try this....

You have lapdock should work fine. But of course you need to have someone install the client on your home PC. I think it uses port 5900 also, so you need firewall/router ports opened up.

Thanks to all the gurus out there it works !!!
Its 1 am in Cali gotta hit the rack.
Here's the steps I did. Except for step 1 they are all scripts
1. Go back to 1.5.2 snf

(I stopped after the script, I did not update coreutils, etc. etc. I did my first attempt and only mouse worked not keyboard. May just be a fluke)
6. Grab the synergy deb for ARM (THANKS PERKZ !!!!)
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...54083/+files/synergy_1.3.1-5ubuntu2_armel.deb
7. Do the all the steps on [How To] Simplified webtop customization

8. Plug in phone to HDMI monitor
9. I used Android Terminal Emulator on my home screen in mobileview and ran
1. su
2. /usr/bin/sudo -H -u adas bash
3. export DISPLAY=:0
4. /usr/bin/.lxterminal
(These are steps in [How To] Simplified webtop customization)
10. In lxterminal I ran
sudo dpkg -i --root=/osh --force-overwrite /sdcard/download/syn*.deb
(/sdcard/download is where I saved synergy/1.3.1-5ubuntu2 deb package)
11. Ran /usr/bin/synergyc -f mulder (My Synergy server name)
** Already had synergy server running on my WIN 7 x64 PC. In the server config I dropped a screen in and called it localhost.
Worked freaking perfectly

Thanks. I've used pocket cloud on the atrix and Android vnc on my nexus awhile ago but performance wasn't great. As great as synergy I should say. Xendesktop express (free) is what I think I want for wan and connect anywhere. Not much documentation for that free solution and what I can find is a bit over my head but I'll get it. Thanks for your suggestion and all ya do on these forums. I'll be sure to write a clean tut when everything is ironed out because I think its our best "anywhere" solution for our webtop. Hopefully synergy can play nice with xendesktop because synergy is too cool when at home.

Keyboard on Mobile View
I got synergy working, and the mouse and keyboard work for the webtop environment. However, only the mouse works on the mobile view of the webtop. Is there a special setting I need to set for the keyboard to work on the mobile view?

I think I had the same problem. Never was in mobile view enough to figure it out. Just used phone keyboard.
That brings up interesting question. Does bluetooth keyboard work in mobile view on webtop? With or without synergy.
@dicksteele - Your link was broken, so I've gone through both of your posts and updated it to the proper jaunty .deb.
Also including link for jaunty quicksynergy .deb, however, the one found in this closed post is better, as you can specify your host name and your binaries path.
This works on 1.83 and the keyboard works fine in mobile view.
Hope this helps...
can somebody make a video on how to do this...
This is my first attempt at creating something for users on xda, so be gentle .
Eternityproject has released a fine script for rooting our Motorola RAZR phones on the 4.0.4 update. As a windows-user that used to use batch scripts for everything I could not help but want some more output than just the [rebooting] echo's that the script print on the screen. As a bonus I thought it would be nice to see how long the script will take before my phone is rooted. I have made these wishes into an application, and pedrotorresfilho kindly allowed me to use their script in my application.
So what does it do?
It roots your Motorola RAZR and shows you what the script originally did. It also calculates how long your phone takes to reboot, and shows you how much time you have to get a nice cup of [insert drink here]. Or soda if you prefer that. In theory it is possible to root multiple phones at the same time, which saves time if you have to root 10 RAZRs at once (LOL... as if).
How does one use it?
- Install the program using Microsoft's Awesome ClickOnce distibution system
- Install the Motorola Drivers (Download MotoHelper from here)
- Enable 'Unknown Sources' (on your phone: go to settings, go to security, tick the box next to 'Unknown Sources') (needed to install supersu.apk)
- Enable 'USB Debugging' (on your phone: go to settings, go to developer options, tick the box next to USB Debugging) (needed to communicate with your phone over USB)
- When connecting your phone, please set the USB Mode to 'Media Sync - MTP', to be sure that mounting points won't interfere with the rooting process.
When the application is opened all the connected Android devices will be selected. This means that as soon as you press the 'Root' button, they will be rooted.
In principle the application does nothing more or less than the script. You don't have to have extensive knowledge of adb or android internals, it's just an app that shows the connected devices and a root button . If you are already rooted, it's easy to unroot using SuperSU.

Added a splash screen to indicate that the application is actually loading
Changed the location where the splash as well as the credits/welcome screen appear
1.0.0.5:
added credits for Chainfires SuperSU and su
Removed the message that rooting was not successful
Added a few more messages about the script itself (in the script output)
Updated SuperSU and binary to 0.94 (su binary still says it needs to be updated )
1.0.0.4:
The application now properly disposes of the AndroidLib instance, disabled the CheckedItem event on the DeviceList because it was a tad buggy. This won't harm anyone.
1.0.0.3:
Enabled Microsoft ClickOnce Update deployment. If I fix a bug, you are able to update to a less buggy version

Well, I tested the 2 versions ( I got a notification to update your tool ).
It is working great but the installer is strange, ( I had all requirements but for people which don't, it's not great ).
SuperSu and binary are not latest version. And I get at the end a message who say " the phone does not seem to have root" but I had root

Yeah, the installer should be extra user friendly. I should probably just advice users to use the .application link. But the link will only work if .NET client profile is already installed. I'll adjust the message about root, It seems that the library that I use does not query root status from the phone, but rather from it's cache. Maybe I have to update the phone data before querying for root. Thanks for your feedback!
Edit: I am now uploading version 1.0.0.5, I added credits for Chainfires SuperSU, removed the message about the rooting. Too bad my connection is bad (3G in the mountains in La Palma) so bear with me while the updated version is uploaded. Should be up within about 10 minutes, users that already have the application installed will asked to update to the latest version.

Greetings,
I have bought one cheep smartphone from china for my sister (the last two quite expensive smartphones stopped working after "diving and free falling course" . So I decied to buy for her some cheeper device. It is an Android and it looks like an samsung, but it is this phone http://www.antelife.com/htm-a9500-s...tft-screen-256mb-256mb-dual-camera-white.html .
After Avast installation a found in the system app which has root rights (It is not possible to uninstall it), which was marked as an Trojan ( Android: Agent-AXY [Trj] ). It is probably UI app, which imitate Samsung UI ( CooeeUI launcher (version iLoongS4vHD2.1.0.10.11138.130628 ).
I tried to root it using framaroot (On my phone framaroot was working well), but app displayed a notice with message "It is probably not possible to root this device with framaroot" or something like that and the app closed itself.
I found one other sw on this page (here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2403230&page=3 ), but I'm worry to try it after reading the last post because of malware infection risk (I really don't want to send somewhere to China IMEI and whatever else...).
Here I write some details about SW and HW of the phone:
Model: GT-A9500
Core version: GT-A9500 Quad-Core ( :fingers-crossed: )
Software version: MT6589-C920-EN-V08
Hardware version: C920-V1.02
Could I ask somebody for help? Is there any exploit for this phone or any other possibility to root it? I would need kick this china apps off this phone.
trojan removing
Is there any way to remove infected UI launcher without root rights?
I may be able to help you get it rooted. Search play store for SRT Appscanner and install it. Then run app and see if either bug listed says vulnerable.

Open a command prompt in the folder you have ADB.exe in and check to see if ADB is seeing your device. ( do this by opening the folder adb.exe is located in then press and hold shift key and right click on the white space at bottom of folder, then select "open command prompt here". Type:
adb devices
in to the black command prompt and hit enter, see if it shows a device listed under Devices attached.) It shouldnt take more than a minute to complete so I would say make sure USB debugging is on and make sure the PC can see the phone via adb since that is what Impactor uses to root the phone (like lost other root exploits too actually)
Also - you need to leave Snap pea window open for adb to work, I dont know why but even though it installs adb driver for you, you need to leave the snap pea window open or it wont see phone in adb.
Hope this helps!
USB debugging is checked and I leave Snap pea window open. If I try to close it, connection with the phone get lost and Cydia Impactor display an error message. If I leave the Snad pea open, C Impactor works, but after more than 10 minutes I see still only Testing #.... Is there some chance to root this chineese **** od should I use it as an hammer?

SSH for the Rooted Fire TV
Secure Shell (SSH) is a cryptographic network protocol for secure data communication, remote command-line login, remote command execution, and other secure network services between two networked computers.
So what? Why do I want this on my Fire TV?
Right now, the only means of communicating with your Fire TV is through ADB, which is fine, but has limitations, mainly due to the fact that adb does not run as root.
SSH does, so those limits are removed. Using scp or even better sftp you can easily copy files to and from any area on your Fire TV, issue commands via ssh and more.
Details are HEREhttp://www.jocala.com/busydrop.html
reserved
Note: If you are an adbFire user you already have this. Just select "Install SSH" from the root menu.
Note: This is probably not compatible with other busybox installs. They do vary depending on compile-time options. Please uninstall Google Play busybox installs or other variants before installing BusyPlay!
Nice. I look forward to trying this out soon.

Hi Jocala, thank you for all your work. When you install the sftp server, what is the username and password?

This is a cross-post from another forum. I thought it might be useful here.
root/password -- the userid should default to root
The command-line "ssh "helper" apps are:
Manually start the server with a password (no spaces)
Code:
sshstart
Usage: sshstart password -- arguments: the password you want to use
Kill sshd immediately
Code:
sshstop
Usage: sshstop -- no arguments, immediately kills ssh server
Show sshd status
Code:
sshstatus
Usage: sshstatus -- no arguments, gives ssh server status
Create sshd startup script with given password
Code:
sshinit
Usage: sshinit password -- arguments: the password you want to use (no spaces)
this program creates the file /etc/init.d/02sshd that starts sshd at boot
Delete sshd startup at boot script
Code:
sshboot
Usage: sshboot -- arguments: rm
Typing sshboot rm deletes the file /etc/init.d/02sshd that starts sshd at boot

So I gave this a try following your instructions as it looked like it would work great for backing up cwm recovery files to my PC. I followed all the instructions installing the zip through cwm recovery and rebooting but when I click on ssh on adbfire 1.11 it says fatal error connection refused. Any idea what I might have done wrong or how to get it working. I have installed putty on my computer and I tried to connect directly through putty as well but that wouldn't work either. How can I test if the ssh server is working or not?
**edit: I got it to connect to putty and winSCP after uninstalling the busybox I had installed and installing the busybox through adbfire 1.11 I can see this being a very powerful and useful tool for the Fire TV. Very nice work jocala. I still can't see the cwm recovery files I would like to back-up though. Shouldn't they be in the /storage/emulated/legacy/clockworkmod folder unless I am missing something?

It should, although I haven't tried. A new startup script would be needed, sshstart is hardcoded to startup using a password.
BusyDrop 1.01 released
Changelog: update to BusyBox v1.22.1 (2014-10-26 17:14:21 EDT)
This setup is awesome for transferring files to and from the Fire TV. Much better and easier than adb once you get it set up properly. I have been using this with WinSCP and it has worked perfectly.
thank you very much for this. im loving it.

If you have any questions I'll be more than happy to assist. Now I'm going to bed before I kick my dog or do something else that will embarrass me tomorrow.
+1 for being able to ssh in using a key and disabling password logins. It makes it easy to log in from putty and other ssh clients, more secure and I don't have to record one more password.
