First, mount /system in CWM. Then reboot you phone and open a root file manager. Go to system/bin and there will be a file called su. Delete it...

I want to install Xrecovery but...

The thing wont recognize my phone and wont show the options to do xrecovery or any of the other options except for Flash...please help im desperate for a rom
You need to root first.
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196421
Then in flashtool click 'ask root permissions' and have your phone unlocked and accept superuser permissions w/the prompt on your phone. Then you're good to go.
*edit- make sure it is the fixed xrec for 2.3.3. I use a Rom w xrec included so I didn't have to install it & I dont remember if that's the one in flashtool now.
Which firmware version are you on?
I have done that already...i am rooted because I have superuser on my phone. Where do I check firmware?

these commands still the same you just need to change (eventually) to the right path.
check the zip structure to see that
HTML:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
dd if=/sdcard/busybox of=/system/bin/busybox
dd if=/sdcard/chargemon of=/system/bin/chargemon
dd if=/sdcard/xrecovery.tar of=/system/bin/xrecovery.tar
reboot
chargemon to \system\bin
charger to \system\bin
sh to \system\xbin
xrecovery.tar to \system\xbin
i dont see any busybox file or anything like that...please help i dun think busybox has been installed...

- After changes were made save and exit;

Just start all over with flashtool it will work then.
Go to settings then applications, then development, check debug mode.
Start flash tool on your pc and connect the phone
IF the phone is rooted, it should be recognized by flash tool
On flash tool click ask root perm, look at your phone screen, superuser should pop up asking if to give permission, simply choose allow.
Then click recovery on flash tool and wait a sec....
should pop up asking which gingerbread version to use. choose 0.3GB, since its gb version you have.
when you're ready to use xrecovery, restart the phone
as soon as the phone comes on and the first sony ericsson name comes up, keep pressing the back button, xrecovery will come up.
i did both kernel things...but the thing is it won't recognize my device as a rooted device...i have superuser and I have used apps that require root...so i guess the problem is well idk...and thats what i need help with sorting out.
1. Install busybox from market (xrec needs busybox)
2. Give root explorer root acces and mount /system writeable (look in settings of your file explorer)
3. Copy files to right place:
chargemon to /system/bin
charger to /system/bin
sh to /system/xbin
xrecovery.tar to /system/xbin
4. Give above files the right permissions (long touch on file and choose property option):
user > read, write, execute
other > read, execute
group > read, execute

[Q] Problem!! Unable to install BusyBox!!

Hi Guys!! I've got a problem installing BusyBox here!!
I searched for the problem on google, but didn't find anything helpful, so thought someone can help here.............
The point was to get V6 Supercharger script running, which requires BusyBox. I already had BusyBox V. 1.19.2 installed, but as Zeppellin has described, versions above 1.18.2 could've caused problems, so I decided to install V1.18.2, via BusyBox app(by stericson) on market. It was unsuccessful to do the job, so i tried it with another app- BusyBox installer(by JRummy), but now this one is unable to detect root access!!!
PLUS, now root apps such as SetCPU, script manager are all getting FCs
I've already confirmed with the root access-- I am getting # sign with SU command.........
Please help someone.......Its all getting really weird!!!!
*EDIT*:- Now Wi-Fi not working too !!!!!---WTF????
You really make all things confusing better to clear data of superuser from settings and then flash older version of superuser and then use jrummy app to install busybox
Edit:Flash kernel again
Update su binary.

However, thanks for you reply!!!!

maybe u should try it this way:-
1.install root explorer
2.at the top of root explorer u will see "mount r/w" (select it) such that it show u "mount r/o"
3.open busybox and try again to install it
i am not sure that it will work for u or not but works fr me

[Q] How to UNROOT

You can go into recovery mode and then Unroot. If this doesn't work, flash the Stock ROM you want to install.

nice to see you here friends..,
If you are comfortable with adb , then do the following to unroot your phone.
1. Boot into recovery.
2. Mount system in RW mode.
3. Remove superuser apk from /system/app
4. Remove su binary /system/bin/ and /system/xbin
This method is a crude one because the busybox will still be there. But busybox is good thing to be there. You can play with some native linux command without any harm as su is not there.

[Q] Rooting WM8850 Android 4.0 Tablet

I've got a cheap Chinese tablet (WM8850-MID) running Android 4.0.3 based on WonderMedia 8850 processor.
It's not rooted.
Here's what i found:
/system/xbin/su is present:
-rwsr-xr-x 1 0 0 68528 May 14 11:07 su
But I can't run su in a terminal:
su uid 10064 not allowed to su
Using adb.exe I have the same problem with uid 2000.
There is a script /system/etc/init.sh which is called a boot time, but If I modify and push it via adb it won't execute (lost execute permission)
adb reboot-bootloader does reboot the device, but it does not stay in bootloader mode and just go straight to Android.
I'm not sure where to go from here. Is there a way to root that device ?
Try ./adb root to run as root.
Use oneclickroot.

I forgot to mention "adb root" says I'm already root.
If I copy files with adb push, the owner is root, but If I use "adb shell" I'm user uid 2000.
This is a new tablet, but I'll give oneclick a try anyway. Thanks.
I've just tried SuperOneClick 2.3.1.0. It says it's already rooted because it can find /system/xbin/su, but I continued anyway. It can copy busybox (temp) but cannot change the permissions and it stops there.
Try resetting your tablet and if the su binary is stil there remove it. After resetting retry with superoneclick.

Thanks, but how do I delete it since I don't have the permissions? In case it's possible, is it safe to remove the su binary? I have no way to recover my firmware...
Use ./adb root to remove it because you will be root.After removing it reset your tablet to factory settings. It is safe because the su binary is not part of the os.
Then try rooting with oneclickroot.
Hope it works for you.
i also bought wm8850 tablet in china..can you teach me how to root in detailed its my first android device....i dont understand the other terms u are using....
Hi jallaine12gil,
I think that you should first try to root with oneclickroot. Post if it worked or not. Oneclickroot is a rooting program for android devices.
download the firmware. then find the android4.0.tgz file open it with 7zip, add the su file to system/bin folder and system/xbin manually.... then put the superuser.apk in the system/app folder then save changes.... then flash firmware from sdcard
if camera is in the top centre of the wm8850 tablet: in txt file
if camera is in top right of the wm8850 tablet: in txt file
download the firmware. then find the android4.0.tgz file open it with 7zip, add the su file to system/bin folder and system/xbin manually.... then put the superuser.apk in the system/app folder then save changes.... then flash firmware from sdcard

Revert to stock rom and try the manual rooting using SuperSU. You'll need a compatible custom recovery to install supersu.

Have you reverted to stock rom? You can just do a factory reset (root access should be removed too). Install the necessary drivers. Download a custom recovery for your device (TWRP maybe, search it here in the forum). Download the supersu flashable zip (this is an older version, just update after install). Also download the latest ADB drivers (awesome app). Then you root:
(1) Copy the supersu zip to your device storage. Copy/move the custom recovery to the root folder of your ADB.
(2) Open ADB:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
wait for the device to go into fastboot, then:
Code:
fastboot boot "recovery.img"
(3) Navigate the new custom recovery and select "Install" and select the supersu zip file, then reboot.
(4) Check root access.
Goodluck
