Some roms enable root by default.

The shell IS the root of the phone, it makes client connection which runs commands in the bin folder of the phone, which is in the..."root" of the system...Root means you access the roots (huh, weird) of your phone system, aka those parts which normally aren't accessible from phone sw, and that's what the shell is about, it launches cmds which are "root" oriented, from removing stuff to rebooting the phone...

The emulator got ro.secure=0 by default, hence granting you root access. What's the problem with that? You are using the emulator developing, and root is more useful. If you really want to disable it, edit the emulators /default.prop and set ro.secure=1.

open up an app that requires SU access and it will tell you it has been granted or that you dont have root access. also in adb after running the commands you can type "adb shell" and you should see a #

Type 'cd /' without the quotes.
Did the default.prop file get changed?
Hello sir! I just wana ask question on how to run commands like this
su -c /system/etc/CrossBreeder/REMOVE_TETHER_BOOST
i've seen this in the Cross Breeder thread. I just wanna try it to reduce the lag on my phone and maybe also to speed it up!
but if i came across with this unexpected problems . i really dont know how to run this commands. so i just wanna ask . how do i run commands like that? THANKS IN ADVANCE
These commands are run via a terminal emulator on your phone. For this command, your phone have to be rooted.
Alternatively, you can use adb shell. To do so, you have to download the android sdk or google for adb for just downloading the relevant part of it, then you have to run adb root to get root privileges (the adb binary can be found under Path/to/Android-SDK/platform-tools) and adb shell to get a root shell. There you have to type in /system/etc/CrossBreeder/REMOVE_TETHER_BOOST (the su -c is not needed there because you already have root privileges).
Okay... So Here Is Whats Up... The Digitizer On My Lg Optimus L9 Is Broken, Cant Touch The Screen Or Anything... But I Would Still Like To Use My Phone, I Can Can View My Screen But Thats All I Can Do,I Wish To Use The Keyboard And Mouse To Control My Screen,I Know This Is Possible Apperantly The Only Way To Do This Is To Access The ADB Shell, Okay,But What The Problem? Well When I Attempt To Gain Access To The ADB Shell... Super SU Gets In The Way, I Cant Grant Access To The ADB Shell Because I Cant Touch The Screen Do To The Broken Digitizer, And I Cant Click It When It Appears On The Display Because I Dont Have Super SU Permision To Use The Controlls Do To Being Denied Access Of The ADB Shell, If You Under Stand My Cicumstances Please Assist Me In Any Way, The Only Stipulation, No Factory Reset!

You should still be able to access adb shell at the shell level, what is likely happening is that you are dropping into a root shell and this is causing SuperSU to prompt if you want to allow adb shell to have root access. What are the exact steps you are taking when you go to use adb shell?

I Use Android Screencast Plus Android SDK, Then I Use Command Prompt
.Adb Shell
.Su
At That Point Super Su Is Prompted

I would recommend try starting adb shell (adb shell command) and not dropping into a root shell then skip the su command. So just do
Code:
adb shell
To start adb shell, and then skip the su command.

If I Skip su The cmd Says Not Permited
Code:
•adb shell
•su
•chmod 777 /data/dalvik-cache
•cd /data/dalvik-cache
•chmod 777 ./
This Is My Attempt, Is There An Alternative

Trying using adb shell from the command line, instead of Android Screencast. Also what are you trying to do with the device extract your personnel information?
Any progress with this? I'm in the same situation
hi,
quick question..
i put "setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555" in file.txt, and save this to /sdcard.
if i run "sh /sdcard/file.txt" from adb shell, on pc, then it works and getprop confirms.
if i run "sh /sdcard/file.txt" from terminal emulator, on phone, it says "could not set property".
can someone explain this behaviour? tahnk you.
in addition, where should you save shell scripts on your phone?
do you guys use shell scripts? can you give examples of what you use them for?

Try "su" command first and grant root access to terminal app

thanks for the reply, minimale.
okay. so, as you suggested, it works when i do it as root from the terminal app.
but couple of things.
1) Why can i run it from adbshell without 'su' command. through adb shell it still works as "[email protected]:/ $" instead of "[email protected]:/ #"
2) how come, without 'su', I can access "/sdcard" (as "[email protected]: / $"). but, as root, I have to go through "/data/media/0"

I'm glad I helped, but have no idea where the differences between ADB and terminal emulator come from. It's beyond my current knowledge.
