Hey, just noticed that along with missing push/pull which i know has a work around it is also missing sqlite3. I tried looking for a binary and using the one that is in the sdk but even after chmod i get permission denied. Anyone know anything about this?
Maybe try
#chown root
#chgrp 1000
?

Well got the binary out of g1, it also needs to go into /system/xbin or else I got permission errors.

im writing an app and it requires root permissions, can anyone help me out?
Normally you execute "sh" to open a shell and then you keep streaming commands to it.
The only difference is that you need to use "su" instead of "sh"
See http://code.google.com/p/netmeterle...statusled/utilclasses/ChargingLEDLib.java#295 for an example
Thank you so much!

I was trying to make a backup of my build.prop via terminal, but after su, I get a
"cp: not found" error. Anyone else getting this? Anyone know how to fix?
I asked in the permaroot thread but no response... I guess you can just use root explorer to find and copy that file to wherever you wanted to place it?
Eh. I don't want another app that I shouldn't need. I would resort to that for now, but I don't know of a free root explorer app... suggestions?
Try:
Code:
sudo bash
cp
didn't work
From $ that returns "sudo: permission denied"
From # it returns "sudo: not found"

Great alternative till this gets fixed. Thanks! FYI for others that may use this, you have to enable root permissions in the option menu.

Once you're at # don't use sudo.

When you open the app did you install the latest version of busybox?
Download busybox from market then install within the program and you are golden!

Didn't work for me either. I'm debating unrooting and going the rage way to permaroot.
worked for me after installing busybox
so I just installed dj05 and super clean .9 but I don't like the lock screen. I downloaded the puzzle lock screen from rom manager and installed but it didn't change anything. why?

Do you have Widget Locker installed?
I do not. from market?
edit: found it, is there a free way to do it?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
All You have to do is create a file named "enable_glass_lock" and put it in /data/local
If you need step by step on this I can tell you multiple ways (some easier then others, but the easy ones may cost for certain apps, such as root explorer)
I can't find /local in my data folder

Wtf really?
It should be there. What are you using to look?
Root explorer?
Try terminal. You can use any free terminal emulator from the market. Use thee commands
$ su
# ls
This should show a list of directories
then:
# CD data
# ls
Again a list should show up and local should be there.
You can also try to change to the local directory to see if you get any errors :
# CD local
If you can CD to local then it exists and you are either not looking properly or whatever app you are using doesn't see it. Terminal is sure fire way to see if it exists.
Hello. I am encountering a problem when attempting to root my G2 as outlined in the wiki (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik..._Root_.2F_.22Permaroot.22.29_using_gfree_v0.5). I get an error message with this step:
Code:
# ./root_psn
Returns the error message:
Code:
# ./root_psn
./root_psn
cp: can't stat '/system/xbin/busybox': Not a directory
Unable to chmod /system/xbin/busybox: Not a directory
./root_psn: /system/xbin/busybox: not found
cp: not found
cp: not found
Unable to chmod /system/bin/su: No such file or directory
#
As a possible side note, something worked: I have ENG S-OFF but no root. Any idea what went wrong?
There is a topic in G2 development forum using visionary "and" gfree to root. Easiest way to root the G2. Dont even need a pc.

Except that Visionary doesn't work on my phone, curiously. I would have tried that already if it did. But thanks for the reply
Busybox isn't where it's supposed to be it looks like. The cp command is dependant on a working busybox binary, if the location is incorrect, or or it isn't executable, you'd get those errors.
Okay, thank you. I will make another attempt when I am back home.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
okay I tried to do it again and hit the same wall: same error. Pretty sure I pushed busybox to the right location. Is there anything I can do now since visionary doesn't appear to work (temproot) either?
I used Z4Mod to Temp root my G2 for OC purposes only...

Still getting "Permission denied" from terminal emulator/Titanium backup. My G2 REALLY does not want to be rooted it seems...
You need to change the permissions on those files chmod them too 755 i think. It should be outlined in the guide. Sorry i cant give you specific help

I'm sorry if this is a noobish question but can anyone tell me what terminal and where it is that I'm supposed to use to pull and push files? I'm trying to stop the nook color Ota updates with these commands and they said to move sqlite3 file to my system/ bin then use terminal to type in these scripts. I have no idea what terminal they are talking about. Please help!! Thank you
