adb shell chmood 0755 /data/local/asroot2
adb shell
$ /data/local/asroot /system/bin/sh
$ mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock /system (or is it -zero)
$ cd /system/bin

is this how to do it? help please
Code:
adb devices
adb push asroot2 /data/local
adb push recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img /data/local
adb shell
Code:
chmod 0755 /data/local/asroot2
/data/local/asroot2 /system/bin/sh
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock /system
cd /system/bin
cat sh > su
chmod 4755 su
flash_image recovery /data/local/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img
reboot recovery
corrected some stuff for ya make sure asroot2 and recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img is in same directory as adb.exe
and that's good to go
UPDATE: no longer requires a sd card to root + recovery image + made copy/pasteable

Up to the exit is the rooting part, yes. After that you can shell in and type "su" and have root access.
The rest of it is installing a custom recovery image.
thank you!!! now i'm rooted!!!

Been rooting this way since day 1 -- if you aren't the type in command prompt, you can also just copy and paste the command lines exactly~
GET ECLAIR/FROYO version of Superuser.apk and su

GET rageagainstthecage from
http://stealth.openwall.net/xSports/RageAgainstTheCage.tgz
extract the rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin to the same directory you're working from
open a terminal/command line
adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
adb push su /data/local/tmp/su
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb shell chmod 700 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage
adb shell chmod 700 /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb shell

******this will kill adb server but manually kill it anyway and restart it ******

So I posted a question yesterday to see if anyone could instruct me on how to root my phone using a MAC, no PC AT ALL. And then install CWM w/o having to use ODIN, b/c I do not have a PC. Well after some researching on my own I found out how and here is how I did it.
To root: Follow this thread (it requires using adb commands)
http://forum.androidcentral.com/ver...s/34188-rooting-using-mac-video-tutorial.html
To install CWM reference this thread, but here are the steps. You must download and install ROM Manager from market and also download zimage file. This also requires adb commands.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804248
Copy zImage to the root folder of your SD Card
Open Terminal
$ cd (path to android sdk)/tools
$ ./adb push (path to redbend_ua)/redbend_ua /data/local
$ ./adb shell
$ cd /data/local/tmp
$ chmod 0755 rage.bin
$ ./rage.bin
(username)$ ./adb shell
# mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
# cd /data/local
# chmod 755 redbend_ua
# ./redbend_ua restore /sdcard/zImage /dev/block/bml7
--Phone Reboots--
$ ./adb shell
$ su
# cd /data/local
# ./redbend_ua restore /sdcard/zImage /dev/block/bml8
I know this is vague, but if you know what you are doing and reference the threads you should have no problem. Let me know if you have any questions.
Hi there,
I tried if it is possible root on stock ROM 1.82.405.1 on HTC Desire Z. YES, we can!
This is a little "how to" with all previous roots and updates from "1.34.." to actual 1.82.405.1 stock ROM:
Permanent root on HTC ESIRE Z using linux
Software No. 1.34...
Necessary files:
adb (Android SDK)
gfree_02
psneuter
Terminal emulator (Android)
Optional files:
gfree_verify
Settings on Phone:
Menu-Settings-Applications-Development-USB debugging [yop]
USB connected to PC – only charge (card not mounted to PC)
Procedure on PC:
Check your device is properly conneted:
$ ./adb devices
It has to be like this : SH0BFRT00451 device
Than continue:
$ ./adb push su /sdcard/su
$ ./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
$ ./adb push rage /data/local/tmp/rage
$ ./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
$ ./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
$ ./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*
On Android:
Launch Terminal Emulator
$ /data/local/tmp/rage
Wait for the message: "Forked #### childs."
Menu > Reset Term - Terminal Emulator will exit.
Launch Terminal Emulator, it Force Closes. Launch a second time, and you'll have a root shell
Procedure on PC:
$ ./adb push gfree /data/local
On Android:
# cd /data/local
# chmod 777 gfree
# ./gfree -f
# sync
# /data/local/tmp/root
# sync
there can be some errors with directory create – it is ok.
update to 1.72 via system and do following again:
./adb push su /sdcard/su
./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*
./adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell
Finally execute this inside the shell you opened with the previous command >adb shell<:
/data/local/tmp/root
restart mobile and you have root....
update from 1.72 to 1.82 via system and again root:
./adb push su /sdcard/su
./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*
./adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell
Finally execute this inside the shell you opened with the previous command >adb shell<:
/data/local/tmp/root
restart mobile and you have root....
Superusere error is patchable by this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=886999
check /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/current_scaling_freq
But do we need to be already on 1.82++ or do we need to downgrade to 1.34++ because I don't really understand what we have to do!
PS: really really thank you!!!!! (all other root methods failed for me, so fingers crossed that this one will work!)
You need to have S-OFF; if you don't you need to go to 1.34 to get it, then upgrade back up the chain...
oh, thanks... I guess I'll have to downgrade then, wouldn't I
I guess so, but should only have to do it once...

I rooted my 1.72 device a while ago with this tut: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905261
Should I be fine by just executing the latest part off this tut?
Code:
update from 1.72 to 1.82 via system and again root:
./adb push su /sdcard/su
./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*
./adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell
Finally execute this inside the shell you opened with the previous command >adb shell<:
/data/local/tmp/root
restart mobile and you have root....
I got error:
E:signature verification failed
I'm using clockwork recovery 2.5.1.3. I think that's the reason, anyone got a fix for this?
hi, I have desire Z with bootloader 1.82.405.1 , from which stage should I start the rooting process?
Hi there!
I upgraded my wife's tattoo's recovery to 3.0.0.6 using ROM Manager, unaware that I will not be able to flash ROMs anymore (amend / edify scripting differences)
Now I cannot find a way to revert to original/older recovery, did try a lot of stuff around here and still no luck
Cannot flash using RUU as i receive a "Wrong bootloader error"
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx in advance.
Adrian

why so much on typing CMD adb
use android commmander It is Great
You can try to use this script http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644279 but replace the recovery file with the original recovery file . don't forget to rename it to the same name.
