I've had an Incredible since launch that had a defective optical trackpad. Long story short, due to Verizon's terrible customer service I did not get my replacement until yesterday. I rooted my original Incredible without problem and backed up everything with Titanium thinking it would be an easy transition over to my replacement phone.
For some reason I am not able to get Superuser to install. Everything goes fine during the root process until I get to this step:
ln -s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su
I get the following error:
ln: /system/xbin/su: File exists
The root instructions say to run the following command in the event of an error:
rm /system/xbin/su
At this point I get the error:
rm: cannot remove '/system/xbin/su': Permission denied
Obviously running the final command: 'chmod 06755 su' won't work and I just receive a 'Operation not permitted' error.
I've reset to factory settings 3 times with the same result every time I root. I end up with the Superuser icon in my app drawer, but root apps will obviously not work correctly as Superuser was not installed correctly with the correct permissions. If I only do the first 2 lines of the rooting process:
/system/bin/cat /system/bin/sh > /system/bin/su
/system/bin/chmod 4777 /system/bin/su
then reboot, certain apps such as Root Explorer will work, but anything that requires Superuser obviously will not.
Please, for the love of god someone give me some help. I'm so frustrated.
I had the same problem...you will want to follow the official rooting guide, as they have built the superuser into the payloadupdate.zip. Start over following the Unrevoked team: Incredible Root process (sorry, my profile is too new to post links) and you will be good to go.
You were right. I ran the Payload update from recovery, then rebooted without doing anything on the command line. Superuser was in my app drawer on reboot, and I was able to restore with Titanium backup. Thanks for the help!
I was also getting this error. This thread helped me solve my problem. Thanks.

Thanks for all the help from the forum on rooting.
Titanium backup is working great on the DI.
Got Root, Manually installed Superuser, Manually install busybox. Used Titanium to install a new Busybox to the app, everything backs up great.

Did you make your root persistent? You're not going to be able to see root apps if you're not rooted, I don't think.

I could see Titanium on the market before I rooted. I would check the spelling or better yet, use appbrain.com to locate it.
how did you get superuser.apk to install?
See this post for installing superuser.apk
But how did you get busybox installed so Titanium would work?
When you go into Titanium, go to the Menu -> Problems. It will prompt you to download a version of busybox that works with it.

After Superuser.apk and su are setup
while still in recovery root (this does not seem to work if rebooted and using persistance root and remounting /system rw),
cd /system/xbin
/system/bin/cat /sdcard/busybox > busybox
chmod 777 busybox
./busybox --install -s /system/xbin
Reboot, Run Titanium, use Problems? button to download and install a new busybox into the Titanium app
For me, Titanium would not run to a point to use the Problems button until I put a version of busybox on the phone first.

Got it working!! Great, thanks!!
I just got my Incredible rooted and installed Titanium Backup when I run it it says "BusyzBox works but the "su" command does not elevate to root:"whoami" reports "whoami:unknown uid 10108" instead of root?uid 0. I think your "Superuser Whitelist" system app does not work. Please check with your ROM provider." how do I fix this? or is it even a problem? Thanks.
same problem here
I am sure it is just a linux issue, but I am getting it too, but i am not a guru and do not know how to handle it ;-)
Can anyone explain titanium backup a little more??? Do I need to backup every app individually or just let the schedule take care of it? Which schedule option should I pick (in terms of all the options of what function you want titanium back to perform)?
I figured it out.
Just wondering, updating the version of busybox will do nothing to the root access, correct? It'll just allow titanium to work properly and root will remain?
My problem was from a not working superuser.apk. rerooted using the files from the 10min root video and now all is well. To answer the above question in regards to updating busybox, I assume you are refering to letting Titanium Backup update busybox. If so it is ok to update busybox.
Yep, that's what I was wondering. Thanks

Looking at what this backs up, I am a bit curious if it can actually restore some of it. Many sections it appears to be backing up are not writable even with root access at the moment on the Dinc.
I'm guessing it will require NAND access for this to truely be useful unless I am missing something...

That was the main purpose of me getting titanium, i'm not expecting to have the need to restore anything until i flash a custom rom. Having the backup now is awesome because i know i won't lose anything once they figure out how to unlock NAND and flash a recovery and roms
when i'm in recovery mode trying to gain persistant root i get an error.

Ok guys I am currently on hour 5 here with my mytouch 4g trying to root it. For the life of me I cannot figure out what is going on.
I have moved the gfree folder to /data/local
from there I have ran the chmod 777 gfree
then I enter the ./gfree -f
it then says permission denied
I have rebooted, removed the battery, tried a bunch of different things
always say permission denied at that step
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT
Thanks in advance (it wont let me post anywhere else since I am a new user and have less then 10 post sorry if this is the wrong spot)
After copying the files did you run visionary to get temp root and then run the "su" command in terminal emulator to get super user permissions? That's the only thing I could think of that may be causing the problem you're having.
yes I have I get the super user permission message then I get the # symbol next to where I type in ./gfree -f then I get permission denied every time
Does GingerBreak work with this version of Gingerbread 4.5.601.A955.Verizon.en.us? My phone is currently rooted with Z4Root 1.3. Is there an easy way of doing this?
Sam
Use the d3 root method. Works fine.
CM7GB-601
The D3 one click didnt work for me. It tries to reboot and the phone sits at the "Battery OK OK to Program Transfer Mode: USB" mode.
I was rooted before the update. I never used ROMS or anything just rooted for wireless tether and T backup. Not sure how to proceed but Im pretty happy with the update, fixed a bunch of issues for me.
Anyone else not able to root after the ginger ota?

Hi everyone,
I have the same question as CSSZiegler, but want to expand on it a little bit...
I have a Droid 2 that was rooted with Z4Root 1.3 several months ago. I also have SetCPU, SuperUser and Titanium Backup. No custom ROMs installed. Big Red just pushed down GB, and of course, I've lost root access. I'd like to regain root again without losing any contacts, Handcent messages, etc. I've read on several forums that the D2 can be rooted just like the D3 with a simple "one-click" operation referenced by quarky42 earlier.
Any opinions or experience with this? I greatly appreciate any and all assistance!
update
My phone downloads the update, I click install now... it reboots and starts the install, then about 35% of the way through, it turns to a triangle with ! Inside. Phone reboots and displays message software update failed. Anyone know where to find a logfile or have any suggestions?
Droid2 android 2.2.. rooted. No custom rom.
Did you fully SBF to stock using RSDLite?
Also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1246673 has a flashable version.
I will as soon as I get a computer again, thanks for the link. Unfortunately my mobo died yesterday. So I was hoping for an alternative solution. It would also be nice to keep all my texts.. I'll google that one.
So any ideas on the logs or an alternative solution?

I had the same problem, and I think it is is because we already had Superuser installed. To remove it, from the directory where you downloaded the one click root, open the command window, then type adb shell
when you hit enter, the next line should end with a #
if it's $, run the one click again, then start this over
once you have the # prompt, type
mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/system /system
rm /system/bin/su
rm /system/xbin/su
hitting enter after each line.
After doing this, run the one click, and it should be fine. Worked great for me.

I'm having the same problem as the original poster... Installed gingerbread with z4root... phone was already rooted.. Now I have superuser and can't get rid of it.. .Tried unrooting through z4 and it doesn't work... Tried gingerbreak and the one click root through windows... Neither of those worked...
I either want to root through gingerbread or just get rid of the superuser.
when I type adb shell in command prompt (in windows 7) it says adb is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Any ideas? Thanks.

I would SBF back to Froyo with RSDLite and install the OTA GB from phone info updates. After that use the D3 one click root method and you're golden.

That error is usually because your trying to run the program from the wrong directory. Make sure your command line is started from the folder that adb.exe is located in. You can do this by Shift and right mouse button and “open command window here”.

I searched the phone's sd card.. I couldn't find it... do you know where adb.exe is located?
The fact that he said to hold shift and the right mouse button should tell you he's talking about a folder on your computer and not on your SD card.

Finally got it to work... now.. I used motorola one click root.exe where you use the exe on the computer. Just out of curiosity, is there a one click method to unroot? Thanks!
So I seem to be having odd rooting issues, and I can't find anything that really explains it. Apologies that some of this might be obvious...
I rooted without any issues before the Jelly Bean update. Since then, I did the Voodoo Rootkeeper, updated to Jelly Bean, and have since restored root. Everything that had root before seems to still work, however, I can't provide new root access to any applications (it doesn't even ask), SuperUser can't update the SU binary, Root Checker reports me as not rooted, but I can adb shell and do "su" and that works....and the binary is clearly there with the su bits set. And things like ES File Explorer are clearly getting root access....just not anything new. Seems like I have "partial root". Any ideas on what I need to tweak?
thanks!
You did a good job of explaining the situation. I am in the same position.
Here, more information, below. Again, looks like I have su available (/system/sbin/su), but nothing seems to work...superuser is not granting root....strange. Thoughts?

FIXED!
I fixed it. Not sure if this was the best way or not, but anyway, I went to this site, and downloaded the latest copy of Superuser.apk and su (extracted from the Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip , the ARM version of course). I then pushed both those files (su and the apk) into /data/local/tmp. I then when into adb shell, did su, then REMOVED my existing su (actually moved it to su-backup), then copied the su to /system/bin/su and the apk to /system/app/Superuser.apk, chmoded the permisssions correctly (644 for the apk, 06755 for su), and voila! Everything started working again.

Nice,
I am going to try using SU and Superuser.apk from that site and rooting JB with those files replaced in motofail2go run.bat Think I'd still have to change permissions that way?
Not sure....I don't think so. Good luck!

Any chance you could provide step-by-step details starting from where you pushed the files into data/local/temp?
I'm not a total novice with android but rooting is something I prefer to be very careful with! Sorry to bug you.
I had the same issue. Wiping Cache, Factory Reset, and re-root with JB exploits solved it.
I'll try to recreate my steps, but since I am doing it from memory, and not re-doing, I might have missed something. I don't think so though.
Go to http://androidsu.com/superuser/ and download Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
Open up that file, and copy out the files Superuser.apk and su, put them somewhere on your desktop, say c:\tmp
cd c:\tmp
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp
adb push su /data/local/tmp
adb shell
su
(you should have the # prompt at this point...if you don't, you don't have "half-root" like I did, and this won't work.)
cd /system/bin
mv su su-backup
cp /data/local/tmp/su .
chmod 06755 su
cd /system/app
cp /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk .
chmod 644 Superuser.apk
Hopefully that should do it. I don't remember if I needed to reboot after this. Good luck!

This fixed the "half-root" on my Razr Maxx HD, thanks!
I have the Verizon VS995 LG20 and rooted via DirtySanta a couple weeks ago. I recently have lost root privilege with Titanium Backup. Root on other apps is fine. The issue may be related to changes I made a week ago in trying to get root access for Secure Settings plugin for Tasker. Secure Settings doesn't work with systemless root. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the su app and Titanium Backup, but I keep getting the same error:
"Sorry, I could not acquire root privileges. This application will *not* work! Please verify that your ROM is rooted, and try again. This attempt was made using the "/system/bin/su" command." I would appreciate any suggestions in how I can fix this. I would like to make a backup before trying some new roms.
I just ran into this same exact problem. I removed the su files I created in order to get Secure Settings working and Titanium Backup now works. But why did Titanium Backup start having a problem with this all of a sudden and what is the true solution?
Here's what I did to fix Secure Settings from adb shell:
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
touch /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su
mount -o ro,remount /system
So I fixed the problem by just removing the su files. However I want both Secure Settings and Titanium Backup working!!!

I had a similar issue - TB stopped obtaining root after a kernel change - don't know why. I solved it by changing the su 'dummy' file in /system/bin/su (TB was trying to use this) to a symbolic link pointing at the real su:
Code:
[email protected]:/su # rm /system/bin/su
[email protected]:/su # ln -s /su/bin/su /system/bin/su
Rebooted and TB and SecureSettings can now use root.
Not having this problem but TB does force close alot on me. It started when rom toolbox pro deactivated app manager. Maybe TB has something to do with the dev?
