adb SU - Android Software Development

Hi,
Just a little help for me please, I try to launch some adb command with SU
In my little head, I have think translate your code with the SU call before
Code:
adb shell uname -r
become
Code:
adb shell su uname -r
With the first command, all is good I have my answer, with the su first I have
Code:
Permission Denied
I have a DESIRE (bravo) rooted and S-OFF, what did I do wrong ?

The Linux su expects a user name as parameter, not a command. As far as I can see, the Android su simply ignores this parameter. If you want su to execute a command, use the -c option, like in
Code:
su -c uname -r
This causes su to execute "uname -r" as root, after that it returns immediately, so you're back at the user level you've been before. This might not be what you expect, but that's how it works.
Your permission error: Try a single su command, without any arguments or options. If it also returns a permission error, you're not rooted. It should ask you at the mobile's display for permission if you're rooted and you are doing that for the first time.

Thx U dude, U R the one

are you rooted?
try:
Code:
adb shell "su -c 'cp /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/'"
this will use su to copy it to the sdcard, then you should be able to pull it from there. Phone may pop up a "Superuser request". Be prepared to allow it.
when i type:
adb shell "su -c '/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/'"
It says:
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db: permission denied
My Device is rooted, and i gave su permission
You forgot the "cp" between "su -c" and "/data/data/..."
C:\Users\ilendemli>adb shell "su -c '/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/'"
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db: permission denied
C:\Users\Muhammet ilendemli>adb shell "su -c 'cp /data/data/com.android.provider
s.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/'"
cp: not found
My CMD Window, whats wrong?
Hum, that's strange.
Try this : (<Enter> means pressing the Enter key on your keyboard)
adb shell <Enter>
su <Enter> (here you may have to look at your phone to give him the autorisation it needs)
cp /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/ <Enter>
If it says "cp: not found", try this line :
busybox cp /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/ <Enter>
busybox: not found
Try to replace busybox by bb in the command I gave you.
If it doesn't work, well, I'll doubt you did your root well ^^ Cause it should have install BB
Can you explain us what you did to root your phone ?
I used SuperOneClick Root, to root my Phone. it installed the su files and superuser.apk nothing else
EdIT:
I installed busybox manually and rebootet my phone, now when i type:
>adb shell "busybox -c cp '/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/'"
it says:
-c: applet not found
EDIT2:
>adb shell
$ busybox cp /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/
busybox cp /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/
cp: can't open '/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db': Permission denied
$
That's normal, you missed the "su" command in your Edit 2.
So, 2 ways to do it.
Edit 1 version :
adb shell "su -c busybox cp '/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/'"
Edit 2 version :
adb shell
su
busybox cp /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db /sdcard/
And I thought SuperOneClick did install BB... Well, I thought wrong ^^
Edit 1 version: Didnt worked..
Edit 2 version: WORKED!? i have the database,
now, how can i give these command in java?
anything with exec("..
From adb, you can't execute Java methods (because you're not in a JVM).
And I don't think you can access the DB like that in fact.
You have to make an app that read/write/do what you want on the DB (and it seems you're doing so, refering to the other topic you made )
it's not allowed, to edit databases directly, so my app will copy the database somewhere else, edit it, and copy it back, then it should work.
€: and i don't want to edit databses from the adb, i cant do it, the program cant do it, but java can do it:
Code:
myDB.execSQL("DELETE FROM system WHERE name = 'name1';");
myDB.execSQL("DELETE FROM system WHERE name = 'name2';");
myDB.execSQL("INSERT INTO system (name, value) VALUES ('name1', '"+arr[0]+"');");
myDB.execSQL("INSERT INTO system (name, value) VALUES ('name2', '"+arr[1]+"');");
Yes it should.
Make sure you don't mess with the DB though. It's an easy thing to break
Edit : From adb, apparently you can do something like
sqlite3 settings.db
Then you'll have a DB prompt where you can write SQL commands like SELECT, INSERT, etc.
can busybox delete and replace files?
BB lets you use any Unix command.
So you can use (in your example) the mv command, which will move a file from a directory to another one.
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("busybox mv /sdcard/ /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db");
this should work
E: Hmm, doesn't work..
E2: should look like this: Runtime.getRuntime().exec("busybox mv /sdcard/settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/");
will try it.
Yes. But remember you have to be root to do that

[Q] just rooted the g2 but cant confirm it plz help

TEMP ROOT Instructions:
Download http://tinyw.in/1lI
Unzip if required and put in your ADB folder
Launch command prompt and navigate to your ADB folder
adb push fre3vo /data/local/tmp/
adb shell
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/fre3vo
/data/local/tmp/fre3vo -debug -start fbb58a00 -end FFFFFFFF (if this doesn't work, try rebooting phone)
Download these 2 files here and put them in your ADB directory: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14927732#post14927732
exit back to command prompt if you aren't there already
adb push Superuser3-beta1.apk /data/app/
adb push su-3.0-alpha7 /data/local/tmp
adb shell (should now see # instead of $)
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 777 su-3.0-alpha7

rm vendor
mkdir vendor
mkdir vendor/bin
cat /data/local/tmp/su-3.0-alpha7 > /vendor/bin/su
chmod 4755 /vendor/bin/su
You now have temp root. Disregard any notification about outdated SU binary. Root will go away if you reboot. If you reboot your phone you can obtain root again by just running the following
adb shell
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/fre3vo
/data/local/tmp/fre3vo -debug -start fbb58a00 -end FFFFFFFF
adb shell (should now see # instead of $)

rm vendor
mkdir vendor
mkdir vendor/bin
cat /data/local/tmp/su-3.0-alpha7 > /vendor/bin/su
chmod 4755 /vendor/bin/su
I haven't found a way to re-root after rebooting without connecting to a PC
Type su and see if it gives you root permissions
Sent from my MiuiSpeedy
says su: not found.
You are saying you cannot install the superuser app? From reading in the Evo3D forums, you could install Superuser, even without being rooted, but it obviously won't allow root access, until you run a root exploit.
Try rebooting the phone, installing superuser, run fre3vo, and then try the adb shell, and su method.
This is getting interesting. Hopefully you are on to something.

Okay let me clarify
I can install SU but it wouldn't install the binaries. I did all of the above. Says su: not found.
I then tried something else.
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# cat /system/bin/sh > /system/bin/su
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
I was then able to get the SU binaries to install but Titanium Backup says:
"Busybox works but the "su" command does not elevate to root: "whoami" reports "app_135" instead of root/uid 0.
then su from the command prompt was saying "link_image[1935]: 3160 missing essential tablesCANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE" and now back to su: not found again....
I don't know enough about linux commands to give you any real info. Like in the other thread, talk to agrabren, to see what he has to say.

Yeah I tweeted him with what I could provide with 160 characters. Just waiting now.
Well here's a tweet he put out a couple of hours ago.
@agrabren: For those with the SHIFT, it's a known bug in my code that we missed the address. One too many zeroes in the list. I'll try to fix it soon.

Yeah he posted that right after I gave him the memory address for the exploit. Just means that I did it the manual way through debugging. At least I think so... hopefully soon!
Good news, everybody! I have successfully acquired temp root on my Shift!
First, fre3vo has to be pointed at the right address. After copying it over to my phone, I did "adb shell" and then ran it like so:
/data/local/tmp/fre3vo -debug -start fbb58a00 -end FFFFFFFF
That printed out a message that it found an exploit and kicked me out of the shell. After doing "adb shell" again, I got a command prompt. I tried installing the 2.3.6.3 version of Superuser, but it complained about being unable to install "su"; I tried to find a separate su binary and copy it over manually, but it didn't work due to a linker error.
After searching around, I found a beta version of Superuser 3:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14927732#post14927732
First I uninstalled the old version of Superuser and then used adb to install the new one from that thread. I ran it and it said it was unable to install su, so I downloaded the version of su provided there and installed it manually. The process went something like:
Code:
adb push su-3.0-alpha7 /data/local/tmp
adb shell
# cd /data/local/tmp
# chmod 4755 su-3.0-alpha7
# ./su-3.0-alpha7
# mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p26 /system
# cat su-3.0-alpha7 > /system/bin/su
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
I don't know if explicitly running "./su-3.0-alpha7" is necessary, it just seemed like a good idea at the time. I don't know if everybody's block device will be named "mmcblk0p26", I used "mount" to figure out what was mounted at /system.
Anyway, after all that was done, I ran Superuser again and it didn't complain. To test it out, I started up Wireless Tether. It asked me for superuser permissions, which I granted it, and it's working fine.
Root successful!
Good job!!
Sent from my Speedy HTC EVO shift on XDA Premium app
I followed those steps exactly and got what I would call a partial root. Some of the 'you need root' errors are gone but "su" still results in 'not found' even though "mkdir su" results in 'file exists.'
mmcblk0p26 exists on this unit.
The weirdest part is that Adfree will accept the device as rooted and with superuser but says it can't find a partition to modify. And after a reboot root is definitely gone.
I think you're on to it but it isn't quite there yet.
It seems to be fully temprooted to me; I have to redo it if I reboot, but otherwise it's working perfectly. After following the steps I listed above, running "ls -l /system/bin/su" should produce this output:
Code:
# ls -l /system/bin/su
ls -l /system/bin/su
-rwsr-xr-x root root 22228 2011-07-25 19:14 su
If it says "No such file or directory" instead, then the su binary isn't in the right place.
Looking back over what I wrote, I think I left out a step -- if you were following what I listed exactly, it probably won't work, because I forgot to change to the /data/local/tmp directory. I'll update that...
Update: after playing around with it for a while, something is definitely not quite right. Everything works fine at first; I've tested Wireless Tether and Titanium Backup and they're both fine. After leaving my phone for a while and coming back, though, applications that try to get root access mysteriously fail. The dialog prompt doesn't even appear.
Going back into the adb shell, /system/bin/su is still there, but trying to run "su" causes this to happen:
Code:
# su
su
link_image[1935]: 3802 missing essential tablesCANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE
But if I use cat to overwrite su and then chmod it again, everything works. su must somehow be getting modified by something else and replaced with a bad version... but I'm not sure where to look.
I caught something like that.
I think there should be a chmod 777 su-3.0-alpha7 after cd /data/local/tmp

So now when I reboot, you have to do the entire thing again? SU and all?

Yes, every time you reboot you'll have to redo the whole process, including running fre3vo and then copying su into /system/bin. Hopefully somebody will figure out a permanent root soon.
Wow those SU binaries are disappearing before I even reboot! Already gone and I haven't rebooted the phone
I think I had that issue too. I just couldn't believe the files just disappeared and thought I did something wrong somewhere.
Would a logcat help anyone at all? Anything I should look for?

Failed to copy to /data using adb push

Hi,
I am trying to push
Code:
$ adb push androidvncserver /data/androidvncserver
failed to copy 'androidvncserver' to '/data/androidvncserver': Permission denied
When I do 'su' in 'adb shell', i get a root prompt , that means I have rooted my device, right?
Code:
$ adb shell
$ su
#
If so, how can I push to /data?
Thank you.
Your default shell is secured - means, when you're executing ADB command without executing something through SU, you're going through the regular permissions.
To enable insecure boot, set ro.secure to 0 in your build.prop. I'm not sure if it's enough, though, or if you need a kernel compiled with security off to take full advantage of insecure adb commands.
You can push the file to sdcard, enter shell, enter su, and in root shell copy the file where you want it to be.
And you're posting in the wrong section. There is Q&A for questions, please move there.

[Q] About root Motorola RAZR 201M(XT902)

Hello everyone...
I have a Motorola RAZR 201M(XT902) in Japan and use Motofail2go to root it.But it doesn't work.

I installed Sudoku.apk and push the motofail2go to the device(also su,Superuser.apk,busybox).

$ run-as com.motorola.bug2go /data/local/tmp/motofail2go prep2
Here is the error message:
"run-as: exec failed for /data/local/tmp/motofail2go Error: Operation not permitted"
and i try $ run-as com.motorola.bug2go

I really want this thing rooted. How do one go about figuring out how to root it? I assume because of it's lack of popularity, no one has done it, but I'm willing to do the grunt work if there's some sort of guide or assistance. I changed over to DoCoMo with the GS4 and now have this paperweight that I would want to actually use.
Thanks!

That your rooted and bootloader unlock.
Thanks a bunch!
Boot loader is unlocked and CWM is installed. Initially I still
Had temp root so I flashed slim beans xt907 rom. It works. I'm unable to test data with it as I don't have a SoftBank sim. Also I still can't connect to the play store.

Thanks for the feedback.
Still awaiting more confirmation with others. It's a step forward though.
I've had my phone for almost a year now. If I cancel my softbank service or run the contract to the end I want an option to root and unlock the bootloader in the future.
could u provide more friendly filehost?
i can't find the download button there
Root! (temp root that is...)
I'm just posting to confirm I've rooted my 201m (xt902).
Props to sbeaber4!
From my limited knowledge since it's temp root if I restart my phone I lose root access...
Next step in the future unlock bootloader.
Peace y'all.

Found that if I a did restart my phone root was lost but I found a quick fix without going through the whole process again.
Just do these steps
unlock_security_module(temp root)
adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ cd /data/local/tmp/
[email protected]:/data/local/tmp $ ./unlock_security_module
Just enter those three steps then you're back to temp root
Also you can just to a quick reboot with link2sd or any other app that just reboots the android ui. You don't have to enter commands every time you reboot unless it's a full reboot.

Noob on XDA, and rooted a MT4G in the past wth help from these forums.
Can someone help translate the kanji for rooting the 201M? Will rooting allow you to change the device location and prevent random all Japanese pop-up alerts/"are you sure" messages? Thanks for any help

Once CWM is online you might be able to flash a VZW or Aussie stock ROM. Actually, you could probably flash CM... That'll fix the Japanese popups. Of course, it also could very possibly brick it. Proper precautions must be made... On my tablet at the moment, does anyone know if sbf.droid-developers has 902 images?
