How to manually root. Download and unzip the SuperOneClick zip file and...
This should work:
./adbmac push psneuter /data/local/tmp
./adbmac push su-v2 /data/local/tmp
./adbmac push busybox /data/local/tmp
./adbmac shell
$ busybox chmod +x /data/local/tmp/psneuter
$ /data/local/tmp/psneuter
# exit
$ exit
./adbmac remount
./adbmac shell
# busybox mv /data/local/tmp/su-v2 /system/xbin/su
# busybox chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
# busybox chown 0.2000 /system/xbin/su
# busybox ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
# busybox cp /data/local/tmp/busybox /system/xbin
# busybox chmod 0755 /system/xbin/busybox
# busybox chown 0.2000 /system/xbin/busybox
# exit
$ exit
./adbmac install Superuser.apk
./adbmac reboot
What OS and software are you running? I had the same problem on Ubuntu 10.10 x64, but was able finish the process by completing it by hand. If your brave enough to use the command line to do the process, I can provide the steps.
Please do, I have most of it down.
su, busybox, Superuser are installed and permissions set, but I still get permission denied when I type "su". What am I missing?

Could you? I have this same problem trying to root on my mac.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I basically have this:
./adbmac push psneuter /data/local/tmp
./adbmac push su-v1 /sdcard/
./adbmac push su-v2 /sdcard/
./adbmac push busybox /sdcard/
./adbmac push Superuser.apk /sdcard/
./adbmac shell
$ busybox chmod +x /data/local/tmp/psneuter
$ /data/local/tmp/psneuter
# exit
./adbmac remount
./adbmac shell
(the following 3 steps may fail which is OK)
# mv /system/bin/su /system/bin/su.bak
# mv /system/xbin/su /system/xbin/su.bak
# mv /system/xbin/busybox /system/xbin/busybox.bak
# busybox cp /sdcard/su-v* /system/xbin
# cd /system/xbin
(try to execute both su-v*, whichever works keep and renamed to su. For this example we'll assume su-v2 is the correct su)
# rm /system/xbin/su-v1
# mv /system/xbin/su-v2 /system/xbin/su
# busybox cp /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app
# busybox cp /sdcard/busybox /system/xbin
# busybox chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
# busybox chown 0.2000 /system/xbin/su
# busybox chmod 0755 /system/xbin/busybox
# busybox chown 0.2000 /system/xbin/busybox
# busybox ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su

In this steps you put up previously, you missed remount the /system partition rw.
Also, what OS & software are you guys using? I'm curious to find out what is causing this problem, so we can correct it in SuperOneClick.

Whoops, that slipped by. In any case, you can check what /system is mounted on by checking /etc/mtab.
Still getting permission denied when I type su
How are you using su directly?
Also, have you installed superuser and root checker from the market?
Add these steps to the end:
# chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
# chmod 0755 /system/xbin/busybox
# reboot
When the phone is up, adb shell back in
Unlock the phone
Type su in the console
Accept the Superuser prompt
I am now rooted
This should work:
./adbmac push psneuter /data/local/tmp
./adbmac push su-v2 /data/local/tmp
./adbmac push busybox /data/local/tmp
./adbmac shell
$ busybox chmod +x /data/local/tmp/psneuter
$ /data/local/tmp/psneuter
# exit
$ exit
./adbmac remount
./adbmac shell
# busybox mv /data/local/tmp/su-v2 /system/xbin/su
# busybox chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
# busybox chown 0.2000 /system/xbin/su
# busybox ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
# busybox cp /data/local/tmp/busybox /system/xbin
# busybox chmod 0755 /system/xbin/busybox
# busybox chown 0.2000 /system/xbin/busybox
# exit
$ exit
./adbmac install Superuser.apk
./adbmac reboot
I've noticed that the phone doesn't like when you call reboot from the terminal on it.
Also, put the instructions in the first post for anyone in the future.

Perfect, thanks!
Might want to update chmod command for /system/xbin/su from 06755 to 6755. I found that after copy 'n pasting these, /system/xbin/su wasn't suid and sgid so it would still give the permission denied error when trying to run su from adb shell.

I can confirm this, typing `chmod 06755` doesn't work for me.
Is there a reason we need to set the sgid bit as well?
Probably doesn't need setgid but I left it since it was part of the original instructions.
try with acer liquid mini failed
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
adb push su-v2 /data/local/tmp
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp

bootloader: Locked and Signed Irrelevant
uboot: CRACKED BY BAUWKS
THANKS TO BAUWKS
Loglud said:
bauwks method uses the flashing_boot.img to his advantage, and since it is not checked by security, effectively he has made an insecure uboot. While this is not an unlocked bootloader, it is a way to get around the security, and enable custom recovery and higher level processes to be run.
I have been looking at this line of code for a long time, and as im sure hkvc and bauwks saw it is a large (but 100% necessary) flaw:
distro/u-boot/board/omap4430sdp/mmc.c: 559 : setenv ("bootcmd", "setenv setbootargs setenv bootargs ${sdbootargs}; run setbootargs; mmcinit 0; fatload mmc 0:1 0x81000000 flashing_boot.img; booti 0x81000000");
Without this line of code, it would be impossible for any one but the factory whom could JTAG flash (but since it is secured, most likely they also have to make a flashing_boot.img).

Install the andriod SDK that is required for your Operating system.
NOTE: This will requries the SDK, and JDK both of which can be downloaded by clicking the links, downloading and installing it.
Run the andriod SDK Manager and Install "Andriod SDK Platform-tools"
[*]Modify your adb_usb.ini file to read such as the following:
Code:
# ANDROID 3RD PARTY USB VENDOR ID LIST -- DO NOT EDIT.
# USE 'android update adb' TO GENERATE.
# 1 USB VENDOR ID PER LINE.
0x2080
This will be in your /home/{username}/.andriod/ folder for mac and linux
This will be in your C:/Users/{username}/.andriod folder for Windows.
ADB is now enabled for your device, however it is not ON your device. YOU MUST DO THIS EVERY TIME YOU WISH TO ADB INTO YOUR DEVICE.
[*]To do this you will need to download any app, and attempt to install it.
You can use this app if you need.
[*]Click on the Package Installer, and then a prompt will pop up asking if you want change the settings to allow 3rd party apps.
*DO NOT ENABLE IF YOU WISH TO ACCESS ADB*
I am working on a way to have it enabled by default.
[*]In the settings page you should see *2* USB Debuggin modes.
[*]Press them both and accept the prompt.
[*]PLUG IN YOUR DEVICE.
Note* You should see the Android Development icon on the bottom of the screen.
ADB will now be able to see your device. How ever you will need to restart the server before it sees it.
Rooting using zergRush (rug2)
This is for the poeople whom have access to adb. You will also need this file. Unzip the file.
Type in the following command (while in the folder with the zergRush Binary):
Code:
adb push ./zergRush /data/local
[*]Once thats installed run this:
Code:
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp
[*]And lastly:
Code:
adb shell /data/local/zergRush
[*]You are now rooted (only for this reboot)
Installing busyboxy (ibb3)
You will need root and the following busybox file.
Type in the following command while in the location where busy box was downloaded to:
Code:
adb push ./busybox /data/local
[*]Busybox works by calling binaries from a file outside of /system/bin/. We must make this file by issuing the following command:
Code:
adb shell mkdir /data/busybox
[*]Lets make sure we can install busybox without permission probles:
Code:
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/busybox
[*]Next install busybox in the folder:
Code:
adb shell /data/local/busybox --install
[*]We now need to take the /system/folder, and mount it as a writeable folder:
Code:
adb shell mount -rw -o remount /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system /system
[*]Link it into bin:
Code:
adb shell ln -s /data/local/busybox /system/bin/busybox
You now have busybox installed
Permanent root (pr4)
THANKS TO INDIRECT for Files and Scripts
We will need SU and Superuser.apk
First we need to install the Superuser.apk:
Code:
adb wait-for-device install Superuser.apk
adb remount
[*]Next lets go ahead and push the su application up to the /data/local/ folder
Code:
adb push su /data/local/
[*]Next we will need to change the permissions and cp su from the /data/local/ folder to the /system/bin/
Code:
adb shell chmod 4755 /data/local/su;mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system /system;busybox cp /data/local/su /system/bin
Installing GApps (eab1)
THANKS TO ANALOG and INDIRECT for Scripts
First things first we need to download the GAPPS. The most reacent one is this one or get the most recent one here.
[*] Unzip and navigate to the most root folder of that package in your shell.
[*]We need to verify that adb is booting into root. To do this we can issue the command:
Code:
adb shell id
If id doesn't return root then you will need to re-zergRush your device
[*]Now it is time for us to export the apps to the directories.
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system /system
adb push system/app/CarHomeGoogle.apk /system/app/

WARNING THIS WILL WIPE YOUR ENTIRE FILESYSTEM!!!
Go into adb shell or terminal emulator.
Issue command:
Code:

Next reboot your device by conventional methods or issue:
Code:
reboot
Your nook will now restart and tell you it is resetting.
You now have a clean slate!
Got some links for howto's on the adb connection/root.
Yeah - if someone has details on how to adb connect and root, it'd be helpful to include links. I've yet to see specifics for either.

bootloader: Locked and Signed
By the bootloader being locked and signed it is very difficult to design anything that will boot besides nook roms. In order to solve this some of the Devs have suggested the following:

hopefully it is cracked soon cause i dont want to buy this if i can't have a full custom rom, all of the verizon motorola phones run roms off of 2nd init and it just isnt the same to be honest. you can never run a full custom rom with second init(well you can but you have to build the rom to fit the kernel) and honestly i want my device to be mine
you should tweet cvpcs or someone who makes and maintains 2nd init roms to get more info on it though
Can't get busybox installed
I'm stuck... I get errors for #3 for busybox... errors like...

busybox: /data/busybox/zcat: No such file or directory
busybox: /data/busybox/zcip: No such file or directory
So I logged into root via adb shell, set busybox permissions to execute and tried that but same messages?!
Also, adb won't let me 'remount' - (I thought i'd try to copy it direct to /system/bin)?
(I'm running from OSX, if that matters)
EDIT: and of course I'm getting...
Code:
$ adb shell ln -s /data/local/busybox /system/bin/busybox

$ adb remount

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I have updatd my guide to help you out. First of you will need to make the busybox directory, then change the permissions of the binary file, then run the install. You will then have to mount -rw
Still some glitches installing busybox...

Thanks Loglud, but I still had trouble using adb. It's like I don't have root from adb? I get permission errors on mkdir and remounting etc?
Weird that the 'adb shell mkdir /data/busybox' gave me permission errors?! It did work fine with the interactive adb shell - weird!?
After the initial 'push' command, I could install via:
Code:
mac-osx$ adb shell
$ su root
# cd /data/local
# chmod 755 busybox
# ls -l
-rwxr-xr-x shell shell 1745016 2011-11-21 00:21 busybox
# mount -rw -o remount /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system /system
# mkdir ../busybox
# ./busybox --install
Also, is the line:
Code:
# ln -s /data/local/busybox /system/bin/busybox
not supposed to be
Code:
# ln -s /data/busybox /system/bin/busybox
Things went weird on me in the final step, but I did manage to get all the hard linked busybox files to show up in /system/bin eventually, so I'm a happy camper.
EDIT: PS my mount on data is as follows..
Code:
# mount|grep /data
/dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/userdata /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,errors=panic,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
EDIT2:
Hmmm... seems like maybe my /data folder has weird permissions - if so not sure why?...
Code:
# cd /
# ls -l | grep '\<data\>'
drwxrwx--x system system 2011-11-21 18:25 data
# chmod 777 data

/dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/userdata /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,errors=panic,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
EDIT2:
Hmmm... seems like maybe my /data folder has weird permissions - if so not sure why?...
Code:
# cd /
# ls -l | grep '\<data\>'
drwxrwx--x system system 2011-11-21 18:25 data
# chmod 777 data

ok so whats happening? i modified the guides and i was hopping that would help you. The command is
Code:
# ln -s /data/local/busybox /system/bin/busybox
and as for your permissions it seems as though your root since your in the # shell but, you have to change the permissions on your /system folder not the /data folder the permsisions on the data file should be fine since i think shell is a member of system, so you can put all your data in there.

Yeah, I'm root in the 'adb shell' because I 'su root' but adb commands fail from the Mac shell. I'll reboot my NT and give you the script. My /data permissions get reset when I reboot...
Here you are as it happens
MBAir$ ls busybox
busybox
MBAir$ adb push ./busybox /data/local
2881 KB/s (1745016 bytes in 0.591s)
MBAir$ adb shell mkdir /data/busybox
mkdir failed for /data/busybox, Permission denied
Of course there is no point continuing until I do the following...
MBAir$ adb shell
$ su root
# chmod 777 /data
# exit
$ exit
MBAir$ adb shell mkdir /data/busybox
MBAir$ adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/busybox
MBAir$ adb shell /data/local/busybox --install
MBAir$ adb shell mount -rw -o remount /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system /system
mount: Operation not permitted
To get around the last error, I had to do another 'adb shell', 'su root' and do 'ln' commands manually.
(I actually ran a shell 'for loop' on the tablet, using all files found in /data/busybox as a list and issued ln commands for each against a copy of busybox in /system/bin)

re run zergRush exploit. your adb shell is defaulting to the shell username. by rerunning the zergy you will allow for yourself to use the adb shell as root. make sure you dont run it as the root user though. you are also more then welcome to hop in irc and ask questions.
Any one having difficulty rooting or see anything that needs to be updated?
Need help to write batch script to run on windows. The command one by one goes smoothly. i`d like to have one *.bak file to run all these at once.
Here are basically commands that needs to be performed:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/null /system
cd system/app
rm SprintZone.apk
rm Sprint_Installer.apk
rm W_Installer.apk
rm sprintextension.apk
cd /data/app/
rm com.sprint.widget.tutorial-1.apk
Thanks for help!

I have an easier solution for you that doesn't even require adb or a pc.
1. Download the shell script I from my dropbox here
2. Copy it to a folder on your phone where you can easily find it
3. Go to the market and download GScriptLite
4. Use GScriptLite to navigate to the folder where you put the script I attached
5. Use GScriptLite to run the script (If it asks for root allow to run as root)
6. Done
Hope this helps

thanks for reply. but the point is to avoid using market and phone at all. just install required apps and apks with adb.

Wasn't aware of that in that case try this:
1. Create a new batch file with these commands in it
Code:
adb shell su -c
adb shell su -c "mount -o remount,rw /dev/null /system"
adb shell su -c cd system/app
adb shell su -c rm SprintZone.apk
adb shell su -c rm Sprint_Installer.apk
adb shell su -c rm W_Installer.apk
adb shell su -c rm sprintextension.apk
adb shell su -c cd /data/app/
adb shell su -c rm com.sprint.widget.tutorial-1.apk
adb shell su -c reboot
2. Save the batch file
3. Before running it open a terminal window where your sdk tools are located
4. Execute the script
script.sh
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/null /system
cd system/app
rm SprintZone.apk
rm Sprint_Installer.apk
rm W_Installer.apk
rm sprintextension.apk
cd /data/app/
rm com.sprint.widget.tutorial-1.apk
script.bat
Code:
@echo off
adb shell<script.sh
