[Q] Rooting the Fusion 2 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone advise if the Huawei-U8665 (At&T Fusion 2) can be rooted? It has Android version 2.3.6. I tried with the easy OneSuperClick approach but didn't work-wouldn't recognize device. Thanks.

Did you ever figure out how to root?

Why don't you Google search other huawei devices and look for root kit running Gingerbread

I have, and I haven't been able to find anything. Superoneclick, z4root and unlock root only work for 2.3 and the Fusion 2 is running 2.3.6 and while trying to use those tools to root, it always hangs when trying to gain shell root.

Have to wait til somebody with skills makes a exploit for the fusion.

Patience is a virtue I supposed. I should've just bought a galaxy player I guess.

I seem to have acquired root, but I had to use fastboot to restore the rom. Sry i cant be more specific because tthis touchscreen took a hard fall..... post later thx -RFE

hi guys, here is a copy of the latest and greatest adb driver sets. with this driver set (folder called 'Driver' if you don't need adb).
I now HAVE ROOT on the phone by using fastboot and modifying the recovery image. I will post these once I strip it of all my personal info. Please try your own methods as well. I have attached a screenshot of what your (x86) device manager should look like once you correctly installed the drivers.
Best wishes & happy rooting

Here is a clip of adb working. I am trying to get clockworkmod working, but it is difficult because of all this new 2.3.6 securiy (my last phone was a 2.3.4)

Here is the superuser binary along with a working adb packaged together. Just push the apk to the phone once you have the drivers installed.
I shouldn't have to spell it out for you how to apply this root kit.
Enjoy and don't abuse!

Rar Password?
Will you either release the rar password or post and non encrypted link please?

I thought I mentioned the password is xda-developers.com ... something easy to overlook if you are skimming the forums.
EDIT: attached recovery image

I got this phone for my daughter and wanted to root to make it seem like an ordinary phone to AT&T. That way they won't charge me for having a smart phone. Anyway, it doesn't seem a lot of folks are rooting the Fusion 2. How has yours behaved since you've rooted? Any problems?

Whenever I try to push the Superuser.apk into the Fusion 2, it keeps saying that
Code:
"failed to copy 'superuser.apk' : read-only file system

Okay, so I've obtained root, but I bricked my phone using Rom Toolbox Pro. Can someone please backup their /system folder, so I may try to unbrick my device?
Sent from my NookColor using xda app-developers app

yup im a friggin moron flashed that recovery.img to my system out of habit ended up bricking mine too. can someone please upload a stock system.img as well as the original recovery so i can attempt to unbrick this beast I was trying to root for a friend. all I get to is first white at&t screen and it freezes almost like stuck in fastboot mode
can someone help and rip/upload or do I have ne other options?

[SCRIPT] Root and/or Overclock EVO 3D For Linux/MAC Updated 7-10-11

I have Frankensteined some scripts and binaries together with some bash programming and created a linux script that will sticky root and/or overclock your evo 3d.
Just trying to give back to the community.
Hope that all of you linux/MAC users like it...
BTW the defaults for overclocking are 33 for the multiplier and 1375000 for the voltage.
P.S. you have to have adb in your $PATH
Version 1.2 is up and should fix ubuntu and mac issues. Please test and if it works for you press thanks.
Thanks

must be something to do with the version of linux that you are running or maybe an enviroment variable that you have set.
Are you using bash or another shell?
simple solution to fix these scripts if you are having that issue
is to open the script in a txt editor and remove every instance of the word "function" from the script.
I added the attached file with it done.
Note: Remove ".txt" from the file and replace it with the other one.
I belive you are missing the command to push the kernel to the tmp folder

You are absolutly right sorry about that... I have attached an updated zip. This should also fix the ubuntu issues with the function command.

It looks like you are killing the fre3vo script which explains why you aren't getting root.
not sure why it doesn't work on mac... I know that macs are unix and this script is mostly copied from J.eremy so if his works so should mine but it is intended for linux not mac so maybe that is why it doesn't work not sure though.
I left the script running for 10 mins which is why I'm killing it. It was just hanging.
On J.ermey's script, it was over very quick.

I think that I found the issue... I had "" around the adb command and mac apparently didn't like it... Fixed now should work on mac and linux flawlessly
Check first post for latest version (1.2)
aha! many thanks!
it works now. As does Titanium backup (which I was unable to get to work on other scripts)
How do i run this on a mac? Not sure where to begin.....
Please help. Thanks

this is not a problem with the script... it has to do with the version of the kernel that you have... the sensation and pre ota evo 3d's need a different kernel module... you can find the different modules here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158951

Snowball Mod

I ran the Snowball Mod without a hitch. I then tried to run the update but it won't run for some reason. The window flashes some text quickly but then closes so I'm not even really sure why it's not working. Anyone run into this or have any ideas. Thanks in advance!
I haven't had the time to try out the snowball mod, yet -- so I can't offer any advice. But, I would post the issue in the development thread, that's where the most help will be.
Swyped from my B&N Nook Tablet.
Try running it from a command line to keep it up and be able to read any text.
Also, there is a log.txt, if you post that, it can be more helpful.
Yeah I was goin to but I don't have enough posts. I was hoping someone would see it here.
Well... if you post your log.txt and start it from a command-line window rather than double clicking the update.bat, then we can take a look at what's up.
Log file says:
Snowball is reporting: v2.0.2
NO PACKAGE AVAILABLE
Command line:
Snowball is reporting: v2.0.2
There does not appear to be a package for the version snowball is reporting.
Are you sure you're not reapplying an update?
Perhaps you are accidentally trying to apply an "outdate"?
Thanks a lot!
There is no v2.0.2 update package in the zip folder. I renamed v2.0.1 to v2.0.2 and ran. Not sure if this was a good thing to do or not. Any help or direction would be appreciated. Thanks.
No write permissions
Tried to install snowball mod from a macbook pro by just running the snowball.sh. Started up and the B&N stuff was all there, although it looked like it ran without a hitch.
Looked at the log file in the snowball-mod folder and saw a lot of "Read-only file system" business. The first few lines being:
unzip: can't open nook-update-package.zip, nook-update-package.zip.zip, nook-update-package.zip.ZIP^M

Huh... this is weird... /mnt/media should not be read-only... although, I suppose, perhaps if you had it USB mounted, it might end up read-only.
Ensure that you have Automatic USB mounting turned off before you run the script.
You can actually push this update via wifi if you mod the update.bat (or update.sh for linux users) file.
Just turn on ADB Wifi (I prefer adbWireless app) and add the following to your bat file:
Code:
echo Waiting for device...
[B]adb connect XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXX[/B]
adb wait-for-device
...
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/update-package.sh ; su -c /data/local/tmp/update-package.sh" >> log.txt
if exist reboot adb reboot
[B]adb connect XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXX[/B]
echo INSTALLATION SUCCESSFUL
Use your IPort given to you by your ADB Wifi app in place of XXXs. Then just run the .bat!
Run from cmd if you don't want the output to vanish right away.

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.MYBE..I need help some plz make a better howtos for dummies m
The first thing you need to do, if you have no clue what you're doing, is post the contents of the log file in the snowballmod folder.
The ".zipte-package-v2.0.2" seems to be related to adb shell "snowball-ver" returning DOS formatted text, even though you're in a *nix. I really did not expect this to happen with the linux and osx versions of adb, but apparently, they perform the same as cygwin... (cygwin I expected, after all, the adb.exe is a windows program). I will fix the update scripts to take that into account.
Code:
unzip: can't set permissions of directory 'nook-update-package': Operation not permitted
This message is reported by unzip when it is run by a non-root user on the /mnt/media partition.
You do _NOT_ have to run snowball-update though if you've installed snowball-mod fresh with the most recent version.

I had the same issue with the name of the update file being called incorrectly: ".zipte-package-v2.0.2". With that output the script is looking for a file of that name and it's not finding it. I just changed the value of the variable ${VERSION} to v2.0.2 (since that was what was being reported by Snowball as my current version) and all worked after that.
Easy to fix temporarily:
-open "update.sh" in a text editor
-go to line 66 and change
VERSION=`awk '//{ print $2 }' snowball.version`
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to
VERSION=v2.0.2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
or whatever version yours shows to be running (v2.0.1, etc). Something tells me it might be important to input the correct current version number in
-save and close the file and rerun it.
EDIT: or wait until cfoesch fixes the scripts
Scripts should be updated. I changed the awk program from just "//{ print $2 }" to "//{ sub('\r', '', $2); print $2 }" ... this means that it works both ways... *insert your favorite "both ways" joke here*
It should also detect if you haven't turned off automount, and warn you about it. If the nook ends up rebooting, then it would tear the USB mount and could cause file corruption. I got around it by putting things in /data rather than /mnt/media, but then realized, if it has to reboot, then it could cause trouble. So better, to just warn them that automount was on, and quit out.
It also detects better if something went wrong in the installation process, and should report that installation has failed, rather than successful under all cases.
Things may have gotten broken in the process, so keep up the bug reports.
I just can't stop Nookin' Around.........god i need to sleep
I decided to check out the update.sh script (can only go so far currently since I have the latest update).
At least for me, (Ubuntu Linux 11.10) I figured something out about the $OSTYPE call to set the $adb variable. I could echo $OSTYPE in the terminal and got a response, but could not echo it in any scripts. Ended up finding the "uname -o" call and that seems to have gotten it to work, although the printout is different.
snowball-update# echo $OSTYPE
linux-gnu
snowball-update# uname -o
GNU/Linux
Changed lines 7 & 8 and seems to have worked:
case `uname -o` in
GNU*|linux*|Linux*)
Now this last part is probably something on my end but: update.sh: 62: ./adblinux: Permission denied
Thanks again for the work (and everyone else involved in rooting/hacking these things )
Indeed. $OSTYPE seems to be specific to bash, and not all sh implementations.
If you don't mind could you do this command and give me the output? "ls -l /bin/sh" and "sh --version" Those two commands should explain exactly which implementation of sh you have. (For instance, on the NT with snowball-mod, the sh is a minimal implementation, and does not support $OSTYPE. But on most OSes I've seen sh is actually a statically linked bash, as it is the most widely used shell scripting language.)
The case on that you provided though could be a poor choice, as GNU*) would match GNU/freebsd, or GNU/openbsd, or GNU/anykernel. Sure it is unlikely, but it is possible.
The permissions issue is not entirely your end, but it is an expected artifact of extracting from a zip file. Although, is suppose performing a chmod 755 on it prior to use would be a good idea in general.

Galaxy S III adb shell error

I was looking up the partition layout of the Galaxy S III while I stumbled upon this problem.
The first time you run a command in 'adb shell' everything is fine, but when you try to run a second command, it just hangs. It doesn't crash, it just hangs.
So, I tried to find out what could be wrong, by doing the following: Instead of going into the shell itself, I just entered a semi-random command 'adb shell mount', which returned the normal result.
Then, I typed 'adb shell' and guess what? It returns a commonly known error: 'error: protocol fault (status 72 6f 6f 74?!)'
The status code is HEX, which translates to: 'error: protocol fault (status root?!)'
So I suppose this has something to do with the fact that my SGS3 is rooted.
I don't feel like unrooting it, but if someone would be so kind to test this on an unrooted SGS3 and report back the results here so we can investigate this further that would be greatly appreciated.
it works without any error.
do you know what to backup which contains kernel and ramdisk ?
Mine is rooted, with Omega Rom V3 and everything works perfect with adb.

Have you tried multiple shell commands? I know adb functions, but it's about using adb shell.
I'm on the stock rom, rooted manually with CF's insecure kernel by the way.
I'm not sure this is related, but there is some very suspicious new functionality in the FactoryTest.apk, called "SysScope". Its some kind of service checking and verifying the authenticity of "something". But I have no idea of what, only that a related java file (ResultCode.class [sysscope.service] contain the following code segment:
Code:
[SIZE=2] arrayOfResultCode[0] = OK;
arrayOfResultCode[1] = ADB_RUNNING_AS_ROOT;
arrayOfResultCode[2] = PARTITION_TAMPERED;
arrayOfResultCode[3] = ROOT_PROCESS_FOUND;
arrayOfResultCode[4] = DANGEROUS_FILE_DETECTED;
arrayOfResultCode[5] = NOT_OFFICIAL_BINARY;
[/SIZE]
Then it looks for SysScope files in the SysScopeVerifyer.class like this:
Code:
[SIZE=2]/data/app/com.sec.android.app.sysscope-1.apk
/data/app/com.sec.android.app.sysscope-2.apk[/SIZE]
I suggest you to back these up, and then replace them, with empty files of the same name, and see what happens.
I have the exact same problem on the GS2, OneX, and OneS. I have no problem shelling into the devices using another system, but on one of my computers I have the same issue. Windows 7 64bit with jdk7 installed.
Also, I enabled adb trace to see what was being returned: set ADB_TRACE=all

[ROOT][TOOL]Debugfs automated root [09/18/2012]

This tool will root your device based on the debugfs root method developed by miloj.
Just download and unzip everything into a directory; then run RootDebugfs.bat from that directory (if you do not currently have the device drivers for your transformer, they are attached to this post, please install them, please use them to install your device before attempting the process).
Neither ADB nor the SDK need to be installed as all needed files are included in the attachments below (though it won't hurt anything if they are).
Helpful tip:
Make sure no other Android device is connected to your PC
It should look familiar since I took PrimeTime and gutted it, only keeping the menu options. Thanks to viperboy for that.
Original post is in the TF300 thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704209
UPDATE 6/12/2012:
v1.1 - Added donation link for miloj
v1.2 - Fixed bug that caused it to stop while doing "debugfs", to cancel press Ctrl+c
v1.3 - Fixed bug where the id is not returned from the su test
v1.4 - Fixed bug introduced with v1.3
v1.5 - Fixed bug where you don't have to push the apk before calling install
6/13/2012
v1.6 - Fixed messaging (this is a cosmetic change)
v1.7 - Added a remove call on su prior to rooting for those who had root previously and it not longer works
v1.8 - Change the octal permissions to be 6755 instead of 4755
7/2/2012
v1.9 - Update superuser app and binary to the latest version available
XDA uploads are not working currently so I have uploaded the new version to here for now
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=DC89975E3CE960E5!221
8/5/2012
v2.0 - Updated to include a kill for Asus sync as that seemed to be the biggest issue.
I have also made it more generic so that it can root more devices with the same util. This is done by scanning for the system partition automatically, thanks to rightonred for that suggestion. With the attachment labeled "generic" I have removed all asus references and drivers since they were causing issues with me being able to attach the zip to xda. Anybody who needs the drivers can download them from asus or from another xda post.
v2.1 - Added a pause while waiting for the device to restart to alleviate that nuisance.
v2.2 - Added message to ignore "File not found" message when trying to delete old su versions. Also updated message with the generic locations of settings on the tablet.
8/12/2012
v2.3 - Update su binary file (hopefully it may help some of the people with superuser app issues)
ASUS drivers can be downloaded from the ASUS site but some are not provided other than through the sync install. I have extracted out the drivers from that sync install and attached them to this post. These drivers will support most of the Asus Eee Pad family including TF101, TF201, TF300, TF700, ME171(MeMO), A66(Padfone), SL101(Slider), and a couple others.
No longer need a PadFone specific root util as the generic one should work for it as well.
Here is a version I put together for the Gallexy SII (but the generic one attached here should work fine)

The risk if it doesn't would should just be that you wouldn't have root.
We already have confirmation that the method works (so there should be no risk there). We just don't have confirmation that I didn't make a typo or other mistake when putting it all together.

Plug your prime into the computer with the Asus usb cable. When the Autoinstall drivers dialogue pops up, tell it you want to select the drivers. when it asks you to browse to the drivers, browse to the location where you unzipped sparky's and select it. WinXP does the rest.

Can you tell me what the console displays after these lines. That should tell if all the files got copied over to the device.
adb push debugfs /data/local/
adb push debugfsinput /data/local/
Since debugfs actually runs, at least that one is copied over, my main concern is debugfsinput, this is the file that tells debugfs what to do.
Also, would you post a screenshot so I can see exactly what is happening, something might jump out if I can actually see it.
Screen shot won't do any good. Lettering is very dark. Here is a select all/copy of the output.

if the file already exists, then that may be a problem.
you could try this to remove the existing file:
Code:
adb shell
/data/local/debugfs -w /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
rm /xbin/su
quit
exit
This should clear out any current su file that's in there and then try that line again.
Hopefully somebody else can come in and confirm they are seeing the same because I am useless for trying things without my device.

The latest update for TF201 v9.4.2.28/29 due out within a day or 2 has been reported to not have any of the known root exploits, do NOT upgrade to the latest build prior to rooting or you may be out of luck.

Tablet Z SGP311 - 10.7.A.0.222 Trouble trying to install CyanogenMod and TWRP

Hi, I have a stock Tablet Z on 10.7.A.0.222
I have successfully unlocked the bootloader via instructions on xperia firmware. However I have been unable to root it or install twrp.
I am a complete noob at this but the tablet is running incredibly laggy as stock so want to refresh it. I was using this guide:
https://www.cyanogenmods.org/forums/topic/xperia-tablet-z-cm14-cyanogenmod-14-nougat-7-0-rom/
In that guide I got to 1b which led me to this guide for installing recovery:
https://www.cyanogenmods.org/forums/topic/install-twrp-recovery-android-using-fastboot/
When i try to do step 6 the tablet shuts off and does not go into bootloader mode where I can flash twrp.
Can someone provide direction on what I need to do differently? I have done various searches on this site and I believe there is not a recovery installed in this firmware version or something and that is preventing me from being able to do this step but I am not sure how I get around that.

Below is what I get in the command prompt when doing the steps. When I tried option 4 for new xperia root it did not work...it just hangs here:

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong or what I need to do differently?
I have rooted my phones before and installed different ROMs but something seems to be off here.

forget about root. To install TWRP to FOTA or custom ROM, you don't need it.
Proceed with step 7.

thanks a lot, I did that, got lineage installed, worked fine, then when I followed the directions to install gapps and rebooted it just keeps loading twrp and not to lineage. I tried wiping and starting over and getting the same thing. Is there something I need to do differently? I used gapps arm 7.1 neon 20181118
thanks again

wiping and installing 14.1 did not work, but when i did 15.1 it did. I think I should be set now.
Thanks
