hi,
i try to find a way to root my atrix 45.31.0 stock rom in 2.3.4 but not sure what root software method to use.
i work on linux so i know what i will do when flash rom ... so i want to know if it's possible to root the atrix 'manually' (without flashing the fastboot) with exploit and if there is an howto ?
else what sofware can root my atrix version by using exploit ?
thanks
I used Pete's Motorola Root Tools for my 2.3.4 but search in forum before proceeding.
i relaunch my question and post another
i read this topic : http://briefmobile.com/motorola-atrix-4g-root to root the atrix but i don't understand why we need to flash the /preinstall partition.
is it possible to copy the dosu or su application on the atrix temp folder and gain root access by this way ?
i think :
adb push c:\su /tmp/
/bin/mount /system -o remount,rw
cp /tmp/su /system/bin/su
chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
does the atrix will be root after that ?
i think it's not always too simple but i ask in case off
any suggestion ?
you dont want to unlock bootloader?

Hi guys! I have a question that I can't answer. How does Paul of MoDaCo do Root for every phone? I explain me better: it comes out the Nexus S and then he obtains root with superboot
My final question is : how does he do a superboot that roots the phone (install busybox and su.apk) ???
Thanks you!
SuperOneClick root
The OP wants to know how the root exploit works.
Check out psneuter, its the exploit used in SuperOneClick
https://github.com/tmzt/g2root-kmod/blob/master/scotty2/psneuter/psneuter.c
Thanks for the link. Do you have anymore of those kind of exploits for android?
Basically, it is an exploit that allows to install busybox and Superuser.apk?
Those exploites allows to run adb shell with superuser permission. So it's possible to do everything.

Yeah, that is pratically explanation. I want to know how it really works , so the explanation if how I can obtain root on a new device!
Read xda thread linked above. And take a look on github repos. If u know how to coding kernel/driver u will understand exploit sources.
Nobody will came here to explain for free this mega-secret-LOL.
Hi,
I have been trying to SU from Terminal Emulator just to check If I get "Permission Denied". I have updated with OTA 4157.
What could be the issue??
Is it a general behavior of the Atrix?
or Issue with PATH Variable??
Or by default "SU" is not linked?
I have also been trying to root with super one click root, not working either.
Would someone please advise what could go right?
Many Thanks in Advance,
Kind Regards,
Naga
to root you have to flash the old sbf. there are directions in the dev forum

Ok this might seem a stupid question but i am anoyed by the market.
I am with bell canada (quebec) and now i search for great apps in the market but I can't even find appbrain (wich I had on my Samsung Galaxy S)
If i Root my Motorola Atrix (MB860 Version 2.2.2) Will I be able to see all apps in the market?
I'm afraid to Brick my phone
Thanks!
You know this isn't really a stupid question. I have noticed when going from rom to rom,that search results in the market are different. Kinda strange lol

To tell the truth,to the best of my knowledge, there is no safe or easy way. Just read,read....read some more,until you think you got it,then go for it. The best guide your gonna find is always located in the stickys. As far as best rom,some can throw opinions, but a rom always come down to what the users prefer. Like I said,reading and reading is the best way to go.

Why dont you hang on tight a few more weeks. I have an AT&T version (which I bought and unlocked to put on Telus), and I installed the 2.3 Gingerbread update and I have that app installed on my Atrix. Honestly, the new market looks great. Have you got the update to that yet? If it hasn't updated from the market google "android market update" and you will find it. It makes things a lot easier to navigate.
Can anyone help with this issue

Where can i find those tools? Or can i have the link and the tutorials as well?im new in android phone, so i rili need a guide.thank you in advance.
the way you root your phone depends on your android version. if you are using:
2.2/2.2.1, use either z4root or superoneclick (in my opinion, z4root is the easiest to use)
2.2.2, use gingerbreak
2.3.x, follow the method here (ignore step 1; the "super one click shortfuse" file can be found in the superoneclick thread i mentioned earlier)

Lg Enlighten CWM Recovery BETA
Created By A Rom Developer from Phandroid by the Alias of
death2all110
"This is based off of CWM right now, but should be okay
Included in the zip is flash_image and recovery-cwm-test.img
place both on your sdcard.
"This Step requires the Android SDK and ADB"
On your pc run:
Code:
adb shell
su
cd /sdcard
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-cwm-test.img
Make install sure you have a backup of the stock recovery and make sure there is no install-recovery.sh file or recovery-from-boot.sh in /system/ect (on your device)
if there is, run
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
mv /system/ect/name_of_recovery.sh file /system/ect/name_of_recovery.sh.bak
once that is sorted out
Code:
exit
adb reboot recovery
When you're in recovery, make sure adb works with adb devices and adb shell. Also test usb mount and cache wipe.

I might be getting one of these soon for free and was disappointed to find that there is no support/ROMs for it. If you're still up for ideas, could you simply do a debloated version of the original to start? Maybe some better software/tweaks in the future?
I will help the enlighten community if i get the system dump because i need it for another project
Theres a few of us from another group that would help out
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA App
Well I'm new to smartphones in general (getting my first one for an upgrade soon, not sure what I'm going to pick yet) and I like the Enlighten cause it's free and it has a physical keyboard, and I've been reading a ton of stuff on these forums and it's pretty interesting. How would I go about getting the system dump? Is it simple or not really for a novice?
Not exactly novice yet. I would stay away from anything that involves (rooting) your device after a couple months of use with android and your phone.
