This doesnt work on the Eris but I was just wondering if anyone knows why. I am not a linux expect so the answer is probably obvious.
I was wondering if we could just adb push the "su" command to the phone, execute and get root. Then I found this link to a tutorial on how to root the Magic by using adb to push a modified su command to the phone: http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Root_Access
Code:
C:\>adb push su /data/local
952 KB/s (76232 bytes in 0.078s)
C:\>adb shell
$ cd /data/local
cd /data/local
$ ls -l
ls -l
-rw-rw-rw- shell shell 76232 2009-07-31 19:08 su

$ ./su
./su

su: permission denied
You can push it, but you will be unable to set the right permissions.
I am able to "chmod 777 su" successfully. Or are you talking about some other permissions?

He's talking about super user permissions (chmod 4777)
-rwxrwxrwx shell shell 76232 2009-07-31 19:08 su
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Owner - shell.
"chmod 4777" will not work =(
mb you can change owner...
that would mean I could hack any computer or server i wanted if i just had a copy of su lol
I am having issues with file permission on su when either I cook a clockwork mod or DFT NAND Rom.
I have verified that su has the following permissions inside the .zip or .img file:
Code:
-rwxr-xr-x
Once flashed to phone when I check the permissions they have been changed to:
Code:
-rwsr-sr-x
SuperUser will crash until I issue the following commands via adb:
Code:
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
adb reboot
After reboot the permissions are correct wtih:
Code:
-rwxr-xr-x
Anyone have any thoughts or know why this is happening? I am using Ubuntu v10 with the root account.
Thanks

Hey
So Ive been trying to unlock my phone using this thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913681
I get stuck here..
Copy your nv_data.bin to temporary folder on your phone:
adb shell "mkdir /sdcard/efs"
adb push nv_data.bin /sdcard/efs
adb shell
su
ls -l -a /efs
If there is an nv_data.bin.md5 file in the directory, all is well. You should continue with these commands:
mv /efs/.nv_data.bak /efs/.nv_data.bakk
mv /efs/.nv_data.bak.md5 /efs/.nv_data.bakk.md5
rm /efs/nv_data.bin
rm /efs/nv_data.bin.md5
rm /efs/.nv2.bak
rm /efs/.nv2.bak.md5
busybox cp /sdcard/efs/nv_data.bin /efs/nv_data.bin
chmod 755 /efs/nv_data.bin
chown radio.radio /efs/nv_data.bin
exit
exit

you need root before you can do any of those (i.e. su)
But i think i have root because I install Google market and other app. Or how i can check if i have root?

Yes, what he said...you're confusing having root on the command line for "I installed su and superuser to their correct locations"
adb shell
$ su
su
[1] + Stopped (signal) su
$ su
su
[2] + Stopped (signal) su
[1] Segmentation fault su

Something is wrong with your device then.
as a first step look if you have superuser.apk in \system\app\
Ho i dont have Superuser.apk in /system/app/

Doesn't really matter if su is not working. Superuser.apk is just a wrapper for su and he's trying to do things on the command line so su is what he's calling to, not SuperUser.apk.
He either didnt root correctly to begin with or he did something after that messed things up. Temp rooting with zergRush and redoing things is most likely what he needs to do.

I'm having the same issue, but when I go to change the mount permissions I get permission denied. Anyone care to give me some insight on how to fix it?
you have the $ prompt !!!
type su - the prompt has to change to #
then do the commands ...
Here's the problem from a logcat after trying to run titanium backup:
E/su ( 6867): Getting exe path failed with 13: Permission denied
I AM rooted. I remounted /system as read/write. Permissions are perfect:
from /system/bin:
# pwd
/system/bin
#ls -l su
-rwxr-xr-x root shell 22240 2008-02-29 20:33 su
#
Just to prove that I have root permissions:
# chmod 666 su
# ls -l su
-rw-rw-rw- root shell 22240 2008-02-29 20:33 su
#
Just for the heck of it I tried a 777 - same problem.
This is duhRIVing me nuts!
