Hello, I am a newbie working with Android Studio so thank you in advanced for your patience. I am attempted to restore a backup file from an LG device onto an emulator device. In the process I am facing an issue I can't identify. To start the emulator I continue getting a permissions denied msg.
If I run the command "sudo chown ubuntu /dev/kvm" the permissions issue is corrected. It then happens again later and I can't figure out why? Are the permissions resetting for some reason?

[GUIDE] Fre3vo / Fre3dom Official Thread (Discontinued)
#teamwin is proud to announce the Fre3vo tool for the HTC EVO 3D and Sensation!
What is Fre3vo: Fre3vo is a temp-root acquiring tool, allowing users access to a root shell on their HTC EVO 3D and Sensation devices.
What is Fre3dom: Fre3dom was the name of the tool being developed to enable S-OFF on the EVO 3D and Sensation. This has been abandon since AlphaRevX has announced on twitter that they've had the devices open for weeks now.
Fre3vo can be downloaded here: http://tinyw.in/1lJ
Prereqs:
1. You must be able to push files via adb to your device.
2. You must know what a shell is.
Instructions:
1. Download the fre3vo zip
2. Unzip the fre3vo binary
3. Push the binary via 'adb push fre3vo /data/local/tmp'
4. Change the permissions via 'adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/fre3vo'
5. Run the binary via 'adb shell /data/local/tmp/fre3vo'
If all goes well, you'll be kicked back to your computer's command prompt. (Some may get more messages, but it seems the Sensation buffers the stderr more than the EVO 3D)
run 'adb shell' and you should have a '#' prompt instead of '%'.
This is temporary root. A reboot will clobber it. There are many threads with scripts for doing what the community has dubbed "perma-temp root", which lets you run all your root-based apps.
[Reserved for future details]
[More reserved for future use]
Want to thank you and your team for all the effort and contributions you've given to this community.
I have updated the FAQ with the contents of last nights "meeting".
I will update this post with results once testing beings.
Thanks Again!
adb?
just curious- does the posted instructions/script have anything to do with the install process? And if so how do we get adb to work? I've had no luck so far running adb on the 3D.
Maybe getting adb to work on a non-rooted phone can be explained so we can prepare for this when it drops. Thanks in advanced for any help.

Here's a good thread regarding ADB. Sorry if you already know all that. I've gotten it to work, but every command results in the "adb server is out of date. killing......" message. In the end, the command goes through, but it has to restart the sever every single time.
FWIW, I didn't take any updates.
This thread is closed. When this rom is ready to go, then it can be re-opened, until then I don't see any actual development ongoing in here.
agrabren - PM me when your ready to post the rom.
Thread has been re-opened, sorry for the delay I am out of town
its all about getting su to stick

Will we learn how the exploit was achieved, possibly post-perm-root?
installed it successfully but for some reason when i run su in terminal it does not give me root, and none of my root apps do not work am i doing something wrong or am i not understanding something?

I imagine yes. You wont fight much info here in this forum (not sure why there isnt a whole lot of info here but there is other places). Team Win did say they will eventually tell HTC about the exploit. I am sure once they do that it will not be an issue to tell anyone else.
Thank you this worked for me on latest OTA.

#teamwin only tells HTC about intentional exploits. non intentional they dont:
20:28 <@joshua_> agrabren, By the way, traditionally, unrevoked's policy is to report to vendors holes that appear to be 'intentional' (see skyagent), but to package and protect vulnerabilities like that the best we can.
20:29 <@agrabren> This was a non-intentional hole.
20:29 <@joshua_> Yeah. Traditionally, unrevoked just packs and protects that sort of thing until someone finally reverses them.
20:30 <@joshua_> We'd love to be able to do the responsible disclosure thing, but this is an arms race...
20:30 <@zule> htc created the arms race, we just fight fair
How do I update my path environment variable?
NEver mind found it here. Have to copy contents of 'Platform tools" to 'tools' folder.
Mine is a froyo 2.2.1 device (ViewSonice VB730), I tried z4root, instant root, DPRoot, and many many many rooting apk but it is not working, some of them are FC or some of them are stucking in "attempting to apply root"
I tried to use SuperOneClick but since I can't find a suitable driver for it, so when I use "adb devices", the list is empty.
I also checked out about some article about how to manually root a devices with PC, seems I have to copy the necessary file first to /data then run the exploit. Since I dont have the driver, I tried to do it with Terminal Emulator and tried to grand access right of /data but failed.
cd /data/
$ ls
ls: can't open '.' : Permission denied
$ chmod 777/data
chmod: /data. Operation not permitted
What should I do
Still no one answer this..
Sorry, I cant help you. Just interested in the right answers.
Not sure but if you can find a copy of Z4Root it might work on Froyo

Nooope, maybe just the ones who can answer it are happened to be falling in love with their ladies and cant spare time here. Why don't you try some ways of rooting the similar phones. There are so many people out there talking about rooting their devices everywhere, maybe you can try some. Next time I will copy for you.

I tried almost any method before opening this thread.. like Superoneclikc, z4root or some similar ways or apps, but if you still have any recommendation for me, I will still try it and thanks

I wonder ViewSonic vb730 is same as Creative ZiiO 7" tablet in view of their features and CPU. The guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010402 may also apply for ViewSonic vb730

(pump thread and reply )
I heard about this method before, but the main problem is I can't find the suitable driver for the device so I am not able to perform any action related to the adb.. can you tell me which one you have choosen which one for your Creative ZiiO 7"? Thanks a lot!
few days a pump
I'm going to say I have the same problem with the VB730. I wish to root this thing but can't seem to make it work (in spite of hours and hours of work). Programs I've tried:
Z4 Root
Universal Androot
Instant Root
SuperOneClick
I've also attempted to do it by hand. No dice. I have installed File Expert which allows me to see all the files including the system files, however, I cannot write to these files nor change them without at least temporary root access.
After looking around though, I think the problem seems to be the same as the Creative ZiiO tablet in that there is no driver available for the USB debugging and even once you get those files, the Android system files aren't in normal places so you'd have to figure out a workaround for it.
I tried following the guide here and I believe this would work but for the problem of the USB driver. I wrote to ViewSonic asking for a solution to get my USB Debugging to work but they have no idea what to do it seems. Or they just don't care enough to figure it out.
I tried using the PID, VID and MI for the ZiiO as per the guide (despite it being for a different vendor and product) which got the driver to install and recognize the VB730 as an Android device (when first installed, it came up with a bad parameter but I restarted the device, reinstalled the driver and the problem disappeared) but I am unsure where to make and put the adb_usb.ini file as there isn't a ".android" file located on the VB730 (there IS a ".android_secure" folder on the write-able portion though). So, when checking for devices through ADB I get a readout that says no devices are connected.
Anyone have any ideas on what else I (we) could try? Thanks both for the help already given and any still to come!
Try superoneclick 2.1.1 ,It may help you.

Nope! That's the version I tried. Not going to work.
Hey developers, I respect your hard work you put in making things happen in Android. I used app called 'custom navbar' which require permission from adb to run.
I was wondering if there is anyway to give other root require apps permission through adb to make changes in system, so you don't have to root your phone to run them?
It might sound crazy but I think it would be awesome to have such option.
Please let me know.
Thank you ?
I have a lg e615f, very old, by the way, I recently won. I decided to do some tweaks in it to give a boost. I did root, cwm, partitioned my sd card and put a swap partition, but my kernel (stock kernel) was not supported.
I saw in the forum a post about a "00userinit" script to activate this partition during boot.
I put the script, after that when restarting the device he did not give more sign of life.
Is it possible that a software change has affected the motherboard of the device?
If this happened, does anyone have an idea how to solve ????

Could you post an exact copy of the script? Also, did you have busybox setup? My guess is that it is something minor, do you have adb setup on your PC? I can't think of any reason an init.d script would not allow you to enter recovery.

Hi! I am actually on a Samsung Galaxy S7 (Oreo 8.0) and i have it rooted w/ supersu 2.82. So i am trying to push gdb and gdbserver into /system/bin to later use with the terminal emulator.
I know the original problem is that /system is on read-only permissions but still when i change them i am still not able to push the files, this is what i've done so far:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
I check if it actually changes:
Code:
/dev/block/sda14 on /system type ext4 (rw,seclabel,noatime,norecovery)
then i exit the shell and try to push it via
Code:
adb push F:\test\gcoregdb\bin\gdb /system/bin/
but i get that the directory is still read only:
Code:
adb: error: failed to copy 'F:\test\gcoregdb\bin\gdb' to '/system/bin/gdb': remote couldn't create file: Read-only file system
F:\test\gcoregdb\bin\gdb: 0 files pushed. 34.4 MB/s (982920 bytes in 0.027s)
I am now wondering that if i exit the shell it automatically mounts /system back to RO. Thanks!

Just keep in mind that, if you have a device that has a dedicated area on the forum, your best bet in locating/posting a resolution somewhere within it.
Also, most (unfortunately not all) of the big developments like TWRP, LineageOS, etc... Will have a dedicated thread that's specifically for instructions, support and member guidance.
Good Luck!
