'cp' command missing after perma-root - G2 and Desire Z General

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.

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!

How to unroot?

I did the one click root that does not require computer but now I needed to know how to unroot. I have asked several times within that thread but have not had an answer. Any help would be great...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
There are a few ways to do it, including manually via something like the Terminal app and doing it on your phone itself, or you can use the one-click Root/Unroot application that TGA_Gunnman created to unroot your phone. Please read the following thread, which will provide you with all the info and instructions you need to unroot your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739300
If you want to do it manually from your Vibrant itself, here's the post that will show you how to do it. You'll need to download Terminal Emulator (free) and then follow the instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7374035&postcount=22

If you need to unroot for warranty purposes, i would suggest using ODIN
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739091
Well I did the one click root/unroot app that is posted on here but I only see the option to root. The aop says root/unroot so I figured it would be easy with the same app but I guess not?...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I'm not sure, i didnt use either app, but basically, to unroot, the app will do what is posted here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728471
can be run through adb with these commands:
adb shell
su
rm -r /system/app/Superuser.apk
rm -r /system/xbin/busybox
rm -r /system/bin/su
Those are the apps/utils that are installed when you root. You just need to remove them, then reboot, then open terminal and type su, then you should get a "not found" error.
As far as the one click root/unroot app, im not sure.
I can't get into my phone (it turns on but it's fried) and I can't get ODIN or ADB to recognize it.
I've booted it into recovery mode and it's had all user data and cache wiped several times (not just by me). Will that take care of superuser/busybox or will it still appear rooted if I send it in? Thanks.

(Q) Root with Super User

So I'm rooted and downloaded Super User app from market. I have a bunch of root apps but the only app listed in the super user app is Titanium. Any reason why the other rooted apps (Set Cpu, Minfree Manager, etc.) aren't listed?
Have they asked for superuser?

We managed to fix this problem the other night on the irc channel. I didn't post anything because it doesn't seem like many people are using superuser.apk. The problem is that superuser needs to install it's own version of the su program to run properly. The current root method replaces su every reboot. When you lose the su that superuser.apk installs it can't control root access anymore and basically any program can request root without a prompt to you. The fix is to just replace the jk-su file in /system/bin/ with the superuser su. Then every reboot it will just use the one that works with the superuser app. I did this a few days ago and haven't had any problems.
The procedure is as follows (you need to use adb):
Go into the superuser app, go to the "settings" tab and at the very bottom choose to update su (it should change from saying original to something like "su v2.3.1-ef").
Plug the phone into usb and make sure you have USB debugging enabled.
Open a command prompt on the computer and goto your android sdk tools folder to run these commands (IMPORTANT NOTE - Make sure you have the phone screen on and unlocked when you run the su command below because superuser will ask you for permission and you need to click yes. It wont prompt if the screen is off or locked and the adb shell will just sit there waiting for a response. As soon as you click yes on the phone you should get a # in the adb shell):
adb shell
su
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
cp /system/bin/su /system/bin/jk-su
exit
Now you should just reboot the phone and check that it worked by running any program that needs root access that isn't already listed with superuser. I suggest shootme or wifi tether. tether asks when you start or stop tethering and when you allow a mac address in the access control.

What root did you use? I did mine manually so there may be some differences if you used a one click.
Edit: I just looked at noobnl's one click root and it uses the same script that contains the line:
#copies busybox su
cat /system/bin/jk-su > /sdx/su
so it should definitely be there even if you used his one click.
When you run the command "ls -l /system/bin/jk-su" what do you get?
I get this:
ls -l /system/bin/jk-su
-rwsr-sr-x root root 26264 2010-09-18 06:10 jk-su

Did you get it working? After you updated su through the superuser app then it started working so that is why it asked you for permission when you were in terminal. The problem is that if you reboot without applying the rest of the fix to replace jk-su then you will lose the updated su and it will stop working.

Okay, I did the one click root method that is stickied. Then I did
adb shell
su
after doing su, I initially saw on the phone that unknown user was asking for superuser access. Of course, "unknown user" is me so I granted it. Then I saw the # then I went ahead and did
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
That worked fine . The line repeated itself which indicates that it worked. When I do
cp /system/bin/su /system/bin/jk-su
it then says cp: not found.
Just to give you a little more info, I just restored my phone with odin to factory defaults, then I updated to the DI07 update. Then I installed the final clockwork mod recovery, then I did the one click root method. Then I installed superuser in the system/app folder.

I'm not sure why cp doesn't work, it just means copy. An alternative to try is to delete jk-su and replace it with the su you updated. Use these commands in place of the cp command:
rm /system/bin/jk-su
cat /system/bin/su > /system/bin/jk-su
Make sure you do this after updating su in the superuser app and without rebooting in between. Let me know if you have any problems.
followed instructions. no errors but i still have no programs asking for permission. i had wifi tether downloaded before and it worked. I downloaded shootme to see if it would ask for permission and it didnt - but it works. neithe one is lited in superuser either.
listed is:
adfree / quickboot / root manager / startup manager ( 3 of them) / super manager / unknown ( spawned right after i followed instrution)
any ideas
uninstall supersuser and reinstalled:
listed apps now:
adfree / busybox installer / root explorer / rootmanager / sufbs / tit backup
again not sure is it is correct. but seems to work "I THINK"

When you go to update su in the superuser app does it say "original" and then change or does it stay updated after you reboot?

i checked. went to superuser and it told me 2.3.1 -ef i then HARD rebooted, came back with no root.and superuser told be original, hard reboot again, still no root. So one more time- third time is a charm - i have root and superuser told me 2.3.1 -ef
thanks again for the help.
i think my phone might not be total stable.. lol
any ideas.
also - i thought about upping root to most recent but unsure if i need to unroot or if i can install over it. your thoughts on this matter!!!!

I doubt you need to update root. The root I used was the original manual method by joeykrim. The one click just automates that method. There is no reason why you should have to reboot multiple times to get this working. You basically just replaced a file with a similar file and the script that was installed when you rooted uses that file to create a new su every time you reboot. Personally, I would wipe to stock with Odin and then use the manual root method to make sure nothing funny is going on with your phone. When you rebooted and the su was "original" you didn't lose root, it just meant that superuser wouldn't work. For now, as long as the 2.3.1 -ef sticks around superuser will work just fine. As an alternative you could try noobnl's newest stuff. Looks like he made it compatible with superuser, so I think that would negate the need to use this type of fix. I'm not sure what he did to add the compatibility but you could probably ask him.
if you flash noobnl's latest kernel, it includes superuser and it works perfectly.

The only issue I see with that is you have to use a DG27 kernel. If you want to use a DI07 kernel you still need to use this fix.

Very true. I didn't think about that.
I have latest Noobls kernel flashed on top of DI07 and this fix did not work.First thing that dint work is i never got SuperUser prompt after i typed su in adb shell,i got su in windows but no prompt on the phone.
To make it short i did the whole procedure from BetterTerminal(now i got su prompt) rebooted and back to same problem.Man,this been bugin me for two days now,sometimes i reboot the phone and i have root permissions then i reboot again and they are gone!
Big question is:is everybody on Epic have same issue or is it just on certain phones,kernels or roms?

Writing to /system/app...

I'm trying to push a file to /system/app but it's read-only. I know there's a command to allow me to write to it, but do I need to be rooted to do so? I'm attempting to put SprintZone.apk back in /system/app so I can update firmware. Feel free to PM me on this, too...I'm not doing so well hahaha.

I'm pretty sure you can just do this:

Remount rw
That was enough to let me edit my build.Prop when root explorer wasn't remounting correctly.
Although I would recommend root explorer for stuff like this... remounts on the epic now and it let's you Remount in the application without adb. I think it's $0.99 in the market and we'll worth it.

I tried with both commands and am using a rooted G2 with stock rom.
su reboot - same error
su reboot now- same error.
any ideas? I know there are apps to do it but why is it not working via terminal?

I had the same problem on rooted stock, and it has since gone away since I put on CM7. The reason is that it is not just reboot that didn't work. Almost no scripts would run either, and those can be quite helpful. I believe it's a symptom of something larger, but I can't quite place my finger on what.

I can get reboot -f which works but I have to use busybox killall_server to get it work from a script,have tried a few things but literature on the subject is pretty sparse,its not so important but would still like to understand the whole process, but I seem to be in the minority trying to solve this.......
Why I have to use reboot -f on Unity where reboot will do on CM is a mystery,have found a file that seems to define functions on Unity(virtuous-functions.sh), have tried adding REBOOT="$BUSYBOX reboot" to this but doesn't help.
reboot -f it is then!

from my end i first did c:\androidsdk then was able to adb push etc...what i could suggest is wait for the signed version.. am on samsung galaxy t989, am at work, i can't really access nothing right now to check with you...i have my mytouch 4g at home...i know you have root access because you said you were able to backup and uninstall using titanium backup.. so i guess you have root access...but try the mount r/w to r/o and see what happens...

You can make the system r/w.
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblk3 /system
i know that's not the exact code but it works just fine for me.

2. Busybox is a great tool for rooted users. It basically give you more linux / Unix based commands that you normally don't have access to. If you Google busybox you can find more info...
