Someone help me make 'adb remount' work! - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have root, s-off, clockwork, and I can make /system/ rw and push files as needed, however, I can't get adb remount to work and it's starting to annoy me.
Any ideas? Busybox IS installed.

I've tried as well but I'm not 100% sure if its really needed. I know with the nexus one I was able to use but with the mytouch I've been able to, nor have I really had a need to do so.

Do you have the latest sdk?
Btw, if you adb devices, does it show the serial number?

Im not sure if its supported on the stock rom.

well I was wrong I do have it working on mine, "remount succeeded" is what I end up getting when doing adb remount. I have the engineering hboot, and went through all the steps to root. Currently running cm7

I'd like someone else running stock to confirm, but im pretty sure its just not supported on stock. Works on Iced glacier, cm7, cm6, and MIUI for sure.

Rooting: Help, can't get passed Step 6

Ok, I'm ready to root my phone and wanted to install CyanogenMod on my MyTouch 4g. I'm following their wiki document (can't post the link here, it won't let me), but can't get passed step #6. When I enter the string "adb push su /sdcard/su", I get "failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su' : Permission Denied
I skipped down a few steps and tried the 3rd line, "adb push rage /data/local/tmp/rage", it returned "5 kb/s (5392 bytes in 1.00s)." So that appears to have worked.
Any ideas?

Try using this method
Link to post
If you wish to use the CM method you need to download/install VISIONary, and temp root the phone phone with "set system to r/w" and "run VISIONary.sh" both checked marked. prior to doing anything.
IF the link i supplied earlier i would high suggest looking for the thread called "post your eMMC serial number" in the general section, some information you might want to read.

Thats weird, cuz the CM method states to uninstall VISIONary before continuing. Wow, now I'm really confused!
If I follow the link you posted, will I still be able to install CM?

The link i posted will turn your s-off, so yes you can do what ever you want given you know what your doing.
just a side-note, once your s-off you can flash whatever MyTouch 4G ROM you want. Cyanogen or other.
just make sure to install the Recovery Image. That is where you flash stuff from.
and keep in mind that is a Wikipage, anyone can edit it. Someone may of removed it.
When you see a "permission denied", that means you have a lack of SU access. Visionary will restore that SU access.
Wow, thanks for the info. I think your few posts put all the research i've done into perspective. Just to clarify, when you say "install the recovery image," what exactly do u mean? Is that like running the ClockWorkMod Recovery in ROM Manager?

pretty much, you can download Clockwork ROM Manager from the market place and having it "flash the recovery image". Or if you are familiar with ADB you can download the image directly from Koush's website and flash it from the ADB command prompt.

Wow, the instructions don't say that! I'm all confused. So I went ahead and did that, then go into ROM Manager, go thru the steps of installing CM7. It confirms my actions, then reboots. Upon bootup, I get the red-triangle. Battery-pull and back to square 2, I think... (since I still have s=off)

Some phones are tricky and wont root with the same methods. If you are daring you may try gfree method, but again like above read the emmc serial thread to gain perspective on whats happening with supposedly inferior emmc chips.
Ok ill look into that cause I tried this method didn't work was gonna try adb method Idk to much bout gfree

Without sounding like a jackwagon. You might want to take a peek into the "post your eMMC serial number" thread under the general section. It's becoming obvious that if you cannot root with the root.sh method your phone might have a bad eMMC. I would highly encourage you to look into that, along with the thread in my signature to get ADB up and running to determine if you have a serial number for a problematic eMMC.
If you do have have a problematic eMMC, i wouldn't perma root it or flash a new ROM.

to figure out how to root my MyTouch 4g, nothing seems to work!
To All Those That Helped...
I was finally able to root my phone and start installing custom roms. In fact, I think I've turned into a ROM-Whore.
What I think did it, someone previous wrote, there seems to be a delay with the cache partition on the MT4Gs. So after I got S=off, I didn't immediately try and run Visionary again. Instead, I waited several hours (not by choice, something came up). When I attempted after that, whallla!
I've since been wiping and flashing, wow.
Now if I can get Swype to install.... LOL
I had trouble getting s-off with the unlockr,adb,wiki,z4root,newer visionary guides. Just gave up last night after that, he next morning did another search and found this link:

This is has been covered many times before. You cannot root 2.3.4. You must downgrade to 2.2.x then re-root the phone. Once that is done you can flash a 2.3.4 that has SU and Busybox kitchen baked into the ROM.

Not allowing you to access the SDcard isn't a SU problem. There isn't anything in the rooting process that voids out the connection to the SDCard.
If you boot into recovery (assuming you have Clockwork) if you go to the mount options can you mount the SD card to the computer that way?

In what process did you brick your phone? the only time you can brick you phone would be when you're flashing the RUU. or doing anything to the bootloader.
1. set up ADB (its a program on the computer) it's simple, you just install it.
2. make sure your computer detects your phone (charging + usb debugging modes)
- you can check by typing "adb devices" in the command prompt when you're in your adb-sdk folder or whatever you name it.
3. download all the downgrading zips, extract them all to where you installed ADB mine is C:\SDK\platform-tools\
4. open command prompt and go to whereever you installed ADB and check to see if your device is connected "adb devices"
5. punch in all those commands in the guide. It's all very detailed. It's all straightforward. There are a lot words and stuff but just follow the directions religiously.
It shouldn't take anymore than 30 mins to set up and everything.
If you already have ADB installed, and the dled files. you could easily finished everything in 5-10mins.
did a quick Google search....

Root Questions/Help

Sorry if this has been covered before, but I searched up and down XDA and google for a solution. Here is the deal; Im trying to root my phone and Im having some issues. Im getting unknown user root in Terminal when I try to run the commands from this thread.I have both versions of Visionary and I believe I have temp rooted the phone. This is where it starts to get strange. Superuser.apk is installed, but Im never prompted for SU permissions. The only app that requested it was Visionary when I tried the permaroot option. Also, I got the system to be r/w via visionary, so I tried to delete some bloat. I used root explorer to do so. But the apks I deleted are still in the app drawer, and after reboot, are still in system/app. Im really super confused by all of this, and hope you guys can give me a hand. This is a little bit different then rooting my vibrant lol.

Can you try to run any other root program (like Titanium Backup) to verify that you actually have root access?

Try another version of Visionary+, because the current version doesn't root you.

I had the same problem last week when trying to root my replacement phone after downgrading it to 2.2.1. The visionary app that I used before didn't work this time. I had to download it again and this time it worked. Before deleting the current visionary app make sure to clear it's data prior to uninstalling it then reboot the phone then try again. That worked for me!
Since you've already tried rooting it with so many methods, I'll suggest you restore the phone to factory settings and start over.

ICS ROM's break root

I've been messing with my phone for about 2 days now since I've gotten it. I haven't had any issues and have installed a ton of ROM's. However I keep having one issue. Every time I flash an ICS rom I keep getting denied root access. I've tried every ICS ROM available and every one does it to me. None of the gingerbread ROM's have broken it. It installs just fine, but any time I try to do anything that requires superuser permissions they get denied, but if I flash back to a 2.3.x ROM I'll have complete root access.
It doesn't seem to be an issue for anyone else from what I've been reading. I'm permanently rooted with gfree and have the good eMMc chip. Is this just normal with ICS ROM's or is there a fix I am too blind to find? Sorry if this is a dumb question. I've come from the Motorola Triumph from Virgin Mobile that's practically rooted out of the box.
Sounds like your not fully wiping everything. The ics roms had root problems when they updated to 4.0.4 but was fixed and shouldn't have that problem now. Use 4ext recovery if your not already using it. use the "wipe everything but sd" option and try a ROM again.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using Tapatalk
Well I'm not sure if this would help but when you flash an ics rom go to your apps through the settings, find superuser, click force stop then clear the cache...then try opening up terminal emulator and tryping SU and hit enter and press allow.
Hope this works for you, I remember a long time ago it was a problem with one of the miui roms for the mytouch.
Don't forget to hit thanks if it worked

This was actually the first thing I tried. I use 4ext and I have always used the wipe all (but sd card) option. I also didn't use Titanium backup to restore apps or anything like that so I'm not sure what it could be.

After doing this I have the same issue I have every time I've tried to check my root status through the terminal emulator. It always says "Permission Denied" and it won't even bring up the superuser box.
(Superuser is still in my applications though, and when I open it up it has been logging the denied attempts in terminal emulator.
This happened on Ice Cold Insomnia.
Huh, idk what the problem is, maybe try re-rooting the phone with a different method? What method did you use?

Try changing su app to automatically allow su permissions instead of prompt to see if su is even granting access.

The rooting method has absolutely nothing to do with root privileges on custom ROMs flashed through custom recovery.
Actually, the rooting method doesn't even matter. All that matters is S-OFF. And since the OP has S-OFF, no re-rooting will possibly do him any good.
OP, many of ICS ROMs moved to SuperSU instead of Superuser app. Maybe that causes you problems.

Try changing su app to automatically allow su permissions instead of prompt to see if su is even granting access.

The rooting method has absolutely nothing to do with root privileges on custom ROMs flashed through custom recovery.
Actually, the rooting method doesn't even matter. All that matters is S-OFF. And since the OP has S-OFF, no re-rooting will possibly do him any good.

So would I just install SuperSU then? I downloaded it but it didn't make a difference.
EDIT: I flashed Zips Creamed Glacier and SU is working fine. I guess I'll just stick with this one. Thank you to everyone for your suggestions.
