Hi all, i added some files into the system directory of my kindle fire hdx 7'.. when i restarted it is stuck in a boot loop on the animated Kindle Fire boot screen, i can ADB onto it, and i attempted to remove the files, but "ADB su" isn't working for me, and I'm unable to access the system directory over ADB... and i don't have custom recovery.
Any ideas on this one? is there a way of restoring the Kindle?
Thanks

after that use
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /system
if you wil get permission denied you need to do hard reset from recovery and try again
after that you could change files in /system
great, i will try this later.. any guides on doing a hard reset?? keeping in mind that i don't have custom recovery..
thanks again.

you could get into stock recovery by holding power+volume up
all of this suggesting that you are at 4.5.2 and rooted
for 3.2.X hard reset will delete su - file
You're a star. Thanks. I'll get onto this after work.

No luck :/ was unable to mount, and hard reset via recovery still results in boot loop :/ any other ideas?
Could you post output?
and pls what is your firmware and root method?
Seems no way to recover(sorry
How do I provide the output? I was 4.5.2 and rooted with CVE
copy-paste output from cmd
like:
Code:

ahh i see what you mean.. ive run s uagian after factory reset and its now giving me the root prompt! great! im just about to follow this guys steps

to use that manual you need to use 4.5.3 bin btw
I see, I was having permissions errors when pushing the file to the sdcard, I had mounted the data partition. I am unable to write anything as shell user, but fine as root. Any ideas?

You cant do this at that way
you need :

Hmm....Strange. Are you see Fire as mtp device on you Pc (for Mac you need https://www.android.com/filetransfer/)?
If "yes" - try to copy update.zip manual into Fire's internal storage.

It looks like you forgot the step where you modify the flash_image's permissions
Code:
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
I had the same thing but I just kept reentering
adb shell mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb push recovery.img /sdcard
adb push flash_image /system/bin
and after maybe 4 iterations it worked.

I wouldn't try to flash anything you find here to a Moto Droid.
This is for the HTC Droid Eris.
Otherwise, and if I'm misunderstanding you, good luck with your problem.

How do you know that you have root? Or, how did you gain root?

I'm not aware of that app, and cannot find it in the market myself (do you have a link?)
However, one way to check for sure if you truly have root is run the adb command adb shell and, when you get a prompt, type the command "su". If it returns with a "#" prompt (rather than the "$" prompt that you are seeing), then you have root on the phone.
Most people these days root with either jcase's 1click root for eris: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.andirc.erisrooter or they use the procedure here: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/127861-universal-eris-root-dummies.html
You may be able to use the steps here as well, since you seem pretty comfortable with adb and have that working already: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/125436-detailed-leak-root-tutorial.html
Guys new I found another solution (tested on u8150)
First make sure that you are rooted first.
Open adb shell
Type in su.
Remount the system partition as read write.
Change the owner of system from root to system via chown root system
the exit the shell and push flash_image to system/
also push clockworkmodrecover.img into the system partion dont forget the last /.
then exit.
use a file manager, I used rootbrowser.apk without a memory card and installed recovery.
with rootbrowser copy flash_image to the bin directory.
don't forget to change the owner back to root to the system partition after you finish with rootexplorer or whatever u use even adb can work.
then the rest follows.
The above works only if your'e rooted and have adb.
Goodluck
haha am a genius Installing ROM +Recover without sdcard on u8150
all you have to do is:-
1. Make sure u have installed clockwork mode recovery on your device and have su binary.
2. Open adb with the device normally on.
3. Remount the data partition as read write using mount remount in adb .
4. use adb and push the cynogenmode.zip or any rom that fits into the data partition using
adb push romname.zip /data/
5. Reboot into clockworkmod recovery using the various options available.
6. This is what to do if you don't have a sdcard.
open adb with phone connected and run
adb shell
mount /data /sdcard
then go back to the main recovery menu and wipe dalvik cache only
then choose update from sdcard
flash your rom and tadaaa.
your'e done.
NB:CAUTION MAKE SURE TO FLASH A ROM THAT DOES NOT WRITE INTO THE DATA PARTION
THIS CAN BE DONE BY LOOKING FOR A FILE CALL UPDATE SCRIPT IN THE zip OF THE ROM U WANT TO INSTALL
Am going to make a post about this later.
Goodluck
Lol, 3 and a half year break between responses.
The problem with flash_image & dump_image is that it doesn't work on devices devices which use emmc (recent phones)and have
mmcblk0
and cat /proc/mtd won't work here either.
This means that you have to use dd to write to this devices.
I wonder how guys determine the partitions to use on such devices, and someone should hint as to what is going on since it seems manufacturers seriously don't want people to exploit their devices.
I have successfully installed a Superuser.apk but it does not seem to be working properly. Titanium reports that Su does not elevate to root.
I have debugging enabled and I have connected through adb shell but nothing seems to work.
Anyone have any success? If so, which version did you use?
Here is my method
I download 2nd link from here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828
After unzip (E:\Android\ROOT\step4\ directory for my example) :
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
adb push E:\Android\ROOT\step4\system\bin\su /system/bin/su
adb shell chmod 6777 /system/bin/su
adb install E:\Android\ROOT\step4\system\app\Superuser.apk
adb reboot
trying this now, will report
thanks a lot works like a charm..
i can confirm this works perfect
very good... spread 30min to install it yesterday night...
Will be included in new version. Sorry just forgotten
Regards
Bin4ry
You make very good job so no problem for that
Thank a lot for your hard work !

I am trying to do same thing with mediascape , but I get error
"Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]", I am reading on google that its something related to the .odex file, how can I install/or whatever I have to do in order to be able to put mediascape back.
I know I just could restore and than root again and remove rm command for mediascape from ch file, but I am trying to remove more branding apps of telenor firmware and flash and root again with clean system.
PS: Messing with my phone as I don't have any knowledge in programming...just google.
Thx
Hi
You can try to do this :
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
cd /system/app
cp /sdcard/apps/mediascape* .
cp /sdcard/apps/MediascapePluginManager* .
reboot

Thanks.
I've tried doing this 4 times... and it's not working ^^;;
Is it missing a step? Or is this all that I need to do?
I get no errors when doing it yet the program isn't working a shown in the screens realunited... ^^;

hey guys,
ive just started to learn how to modify apks and use adb.
my problem is that after i pull the file, i modify the icon i want to change, re-sign it and push it back to the phone. after i reinstall, the icons have not changed :S i re-pulled it, and the icons in the drawable_hdpi file are the one i wanted.
also, completely unrelated to that.... in adb when i try to run adb remount, it says permission denied, but im rooted and i even tried running the shell root beforehand aswell.
i ran a search and followed the various instructions from the different threads and forums but im just stuck at that point
thanks guys

i push it to the sdcard lol because it wont let me push to the system/app folder nor the data/app folder. i check my screen and a pop up appears saying that superuser granted access, so i have that.

Then it's no wonder your icons haven't changed if you haven't installed it to the phone.
Try, but keep your phones screen on whilst you try it...
adb shell (enter)
su (enter)
...allow super user access on phone...
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system

ok i just tried that. when i typed su, it echoed and on my phone it said "unknown has been grandted superuser permissions" so i didnt need to click allow or anything.

** This is completely unsupported!!!!!!! **
ALL credit goes to saurik for the root method, Jason A. Donenfeld (zx2c4) for finding the exploit, alpharevx for finding the offsets and initial confirmation on the Transformer Prime and viperboy for finding it and posting it in his thread. I did not research, find, or develop this root method!
Mods, if I've done anything wrong, please feel free to remove this thread.
You will need to know how to use ADB commands, otherwise, use viperMOD PrimeTime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Downloads:
mempodroid binary
su binary
Root:
adb push mempodroid /data/local
adb push su /data/local
adb shell
chmod 777 /data/local/mempodroid
/data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh
** You should now be in a remote shell session with root (indicated by #)
mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
** IF you have previously rooted your Prime, run the following two commands. They may throw an error that the file a file was not found.
rm /system/bin/su
rm /system/xbin/su
cat /data/local/su > /system/xbin/su
chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
rm /data/local/mempodroid
rm /data/local/su
exit
exit
adb reboot
After your Transformer Prime comes up, install Superuser from android market.
HOPEFULLY everyone has learned their lesson and will also install Voodoo Rootkeeper as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! R

Changed the mount command - thanks viperboy!
Added steps to possibly resolve issues with previously rooted systems
Changed a few steps to be a little bit easier.
**Jan 24 2012 Edit **
Some people are reporting issues with this method. I suspect this is due to previously having root or other altered files. A method that has worked for some is to update to 9.4.2.11.1 and then following the above procedures. Please note, this firmware release is unofficial and at this time THERE IS NO DOWNGRADE PATH.
i keep getting permission denied after
adb shell /data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 mount -o remount,rw '' /system
i missed a chmod step, add it just now.
run:
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/mempodroid
and then pick up right where you left off.
as i am not root nor superuser .. i don't even get access
/ $ cd data
~ $ ls
ls: can't open '.': Permission denied

no offense, you may want to just wait for the one click root.

Try re-installing superuser? When I was rooted before, sometimes superuser wouldn't prompt me for SU on occasion too.

Looks like something went wrong on the first mempodroid command. Go back and start from the begining just in case. Shouldn't hurt anything.

Did you execute this command as root ? If not enter "su" then enter your command. (Make sure you hit "Allow" when the prompt for you to allow root accès to the shell appears)
And maybe it sounds stupid but try chmod commands if your command doesn't work.
I'm not an expert with android terminal so if the problem is persistent you can try this with a root explorer.
Hope all of this helped
Have a good day

The partitition you want to deal with must be mounted as READ-WRITE before.

How do I do and undo that, will it change any file permissions?
Example:
Code:
su
cd /
mount -o rw,remount -t auto /system

Thank you, it worked, do you know how to undo it, the below command deosn't seem to work and do you know what the "auto" is for in the command?
Code:
mount -o ro,remount -t auto /system
