sir im saying this in the most friendly way possible
but i was once just like you new to hacking and lots of questions
but you must understand all the questions you have can be answered by reading on here or google search
everyone is tired of answering the same question of the newbies and trust me i have been flamed
also check out the forum rules about posting questions certain questions go in certain places if you want quick answers....all love bro i want to see you rooted and happy
if you have root
su is Super User access
you need to get the su.apk go here and take a look http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828
su allows certain apps to do rooted things including overclocking
btw you will alos new the setcpu app to overclock go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419

Run to this thread and read up:

There is an automated script that will help you with the root. Many users, including myself had to run it a couple of times before it took - so if it doesn't go off the first time, don't lose faith, just try again.
As for whether or not it wipes, that's moot - You should, after you run the hack flash a custom rom - this will wipe your data. Any ROM you like from the dev forum will do. I am using Froyo v21. But you can certainly try any one you like. As for non-Froyo roms, I like the Cyannogen ELB builds. But again it is your preference that matters.
To flash the new rom, you need to boot into recovery mode. If you run the script from the above thread, it will boot you into recovery mode. If you use the instructions in this thread, type "adb reboot recovery" at your command prompt immediately after you are done. Once there, you can do the following:
-Do a NAND backup
-Put your phone into USB SD mode and copy over your ROM of choice to the root of your SD card.
-Do a factory wipe and a dalvik cache wipe
-flash your new rom
When you flash the new rom, depending on which one you do, you should have su or root. You can then download and install apps that require root.
Remember, you should back-up your data before you try to do anything to your phone. It's just a good idea.
If you have any ROM specific issues, try looking through that ROM's thread for answers. Also, if you have any other questions about how to do anything, the first sticky thread in this forum is a great collection of how-tos. You can also PM Me and I will be happy to help.
Don't forget that a lot of hard work went into rooting leak. Do like many of us have and donate to those responsible.
i understand what your saying about asking here. but seriously, i searched and it seems like every thread says the same thing. so i jump all over the place and end up going in circles. i did my sons moto droid yesterday pretty easily. he now has root and a smoking droid w/o disturbing anything else. so, sorry, but it is tough. thanks for your reply. i got this particular thread from android forums and it looked like the one. a new one at that. but i spent several hours going around in circles. googling and everything. i am a noob with linux based phones. yes. but i'm very capable and dont need baby steps. just need some straight answers. so sorry. i will check your links. thanks for your reply
Works just as good as the automated method. Good deal.

Everyone, if you don't want to do a wipe and install a custom ROM, you can just flash EngTools.zip, courtesy of jcase, and it will add su and superuser.apk without disturbing your existing data (apps, settings, etc).

Ok I got A Problem. Went to flash a new rom after backing my current one up with rom manager everything went fine till I went to flash it and now it says
E: Failure at line 7 symlink dumpstate SYSTEM:bin/dumpcrash
I dont have a working phone. Tried several different roms and nothing.
what do I need to do??
can u boot in to recovery mode " vol up + power button " ? and dont use Clockworkmod recovery as its known to have issues with the eris.
use the other recovery.
Thanks T.A.
Yes I can Boot into recovery thats it.
How do I go about Flashing a New Recovery Manager
Topaz is right.... Amon_RA FTW !
How do I install that now though. I have been searching through forums looking cant find a step by step
Forgot to say I was a Leaker before they found the method.
would this work

this gives you the S-OFF bootloader and Amon_RA for recovery
you might wait to see if others weight in on the best approach here.
Already turned S-OFF the only reason I have clock work is because my noobie ass used rom manager for convience

Do this
Code:

adb push flash_image /data/local/
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/recovery.img
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/flash_image
adb shell /data/local/flash_image recovery /data/local/recovery.img
adb reboot recovery
try this in fastboot ( SEND + POWER )
not sure u can push files into /data/local/
hopefully it will work and if not and all fails.
put a rom on sd card and boot into recovery and hopefully clockworkmod recovery will flash it.
Yep, really have no idea what to do. I run the commands in what you gave me and the stupid thing says file its there when i use root command to navigate there its right there. idk whats going on.

Backups all failed.
Hi everyone,
A few days ago I got the OTA 2.2.1 on my MT3G and then rooted it using the SuperOneClick tool. I was able to remove all useless apps, pushed others to /system/app with Root Explorer, etc., there is only one to do, and I am clueless: how to replace the stock Android System Recovery <3e> with a custom recovery image, so I can do Nandroid backups, flash .zip files, etc?
I used the ROM Manager app to flash Clockwork, got an "Installation successful" confirmation, but then on reboot into recovery mode my phone got stuck on the MT3G logo. I had to remove the battery, then in second attempt the phone booted into the <3e> image. Restarted again, opened the ROM Manager, according to it Clockwork was installed. Total craziness! Then I tried to flash it using Better Terminal Emulator (su, flash_image recovery /sdcard/Clockwork.img) but I got a "flash_image: not found" message, though I had the image on my sd card.
Any good ideas, folks?
All useful suggestions much appreciated, thanks!
They've been excluding flash_image from htc roms lately. What your gonna have to do is put flash image on your sdcard with the recovery.img. Then mount your sdcard and run the flash_image from your sdcard and flash the recovery image. After your done then you remove the installrecovery.sh from system/etc. That is what keeps installing the factory recovery when you reboot. I get home and onto a decent internet connection in a few hours and I'll upload some adb commands to help you do this.
make sure you have the recovery.img and flash_image on your sdcard
run these commands in adb
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/mtdblock3 /system
rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
cd sdcard
mount -o remount,exec /dev/block//vold/179:1 /sdcard
./flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
exit
exit
It's kinda relative to the topic. I'm stuck on clockworkmod and would like to get back to stock recovery as the new HBOOT doesn't let me flash roms. Is there any way I can do so?
Look in my guide... all the files, steps and binaries are included...
Check out my signature!
Thanks, Asadullah. One more question: Are there different versions of flash_image for different android versions, because I saw in another forum a user complaining he/she didn't use the right binary.
Edit: I've extracted a flash_image binary from CM 6, hope it will work
Edit2: It worked, thanks a lot, man!
I think that flash_image from different devices is different someone correct me if I'm wrong. Glad it worked

I forgot to ask you one more question, don't want to open a new thread for this one, perhaps you can help again
I put the code you gave me through the terminal, since adb denied me of su permission. I installed the SDK, and after typing "adb devices" in cmd it saw the phone. "Adb shell" worked (saw the dollar sign), but then intead of getting the pound sign, su gave me "permission denied". But I get the permission when using the terminal. I also cannot see the phone directories when I open DroidExplorer, but otherwise it sees the phone and I get su permission when I use its command prompt. I thought there may be a problem with the root, but if there was, then how was I able to delete and push system apps and install the custom recovery? What do you think may cause the problem? Thanks.

I know it's been a while and you didn't get a reply, and while I found this thread because I too am having enormous trouble rooting this whatever it is cheap chinese android 2.2.1 momo 2 thing covered completely in chinese language apps that I simply cannot use even for the low price it cost me - I thought I'd offer an answer, most likely wrong, but one that may help the next person who may fall into your position.
adb root is an option to start the adb service in root mode, and I can only assume that means for the device.
As I have not been able to get this thing sorted, not knowing what it is really - no phone, no camera, no buttons on the case apart from power/sleep - Home/Esc which do nothing on booting apart from alert the PC to detect a new USB device, no market access, but otherwise exactly what I required - I dont know if it'll help.
But I hate threads left in a question, because I always find them. And this circle of frustration seriously should not be real, it just cannot be this damn hard to do something...
yikes!

Im sure youve tried stuff -- did you try clearing superuser cache -- refresh the slate and confirmed you did not miss the SU popup? just be sure the screen is on and look for it like 2 seconds after you hit enter after "adb shell"

So was helping someone flash ClockworkMod via ADB in another thread, just thought if I made a topic for it, everyone can see it so if people have any issues they can always use this method instead.
Anyway, here are the instructions:
The 'flash_image' is within the attached zip file! Use the file within the zip file, NOT the zip file itself
The 'recovery.img' is your chosen recovery file, get this off ClockworkMods website or if you have a copy use that. Then when flashing the recovery image where ever it says 'recovery.img' replace that with the name of the recovery file.
Put the recovery image and the flash_image on the root of your C drive.
So,
(make sure you're in the command prompt and have changed directory to where the adb file is)
adb push c:\flash_image /sdcard/
adb push c:\recovery.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o remount, rw /system
cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin
cd /system/bin
chmod 777 flash_image
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
It has now been flashed successfully
Hope this is of use to some people
Thanks! Very helpful.

You must be rooted for this, root using z4root or something

Dude i didn't know u weren't rooted yet. U don't need to use adb to root. Just Google z4root modaco and click on the first link. Install z4root and permanent root it. Don't forget to install rom manager and flash cwm from within it
Oh, well z4root doesn't work for me cause i got 2.3.5 i heard that the only way to root my blade is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319257
and that doesn't work, it freezes when i enter the command "adb reboot bootloader" it reboots and stay on the ZTE logo and freezes. :S

That's what it is supposed to do. That's it in fastboot mode. You need to go on to the next step at that point.
Well when i enter next command nothing happends.

So what's the point in doing it?
Just install rom manager & use that instead.

You need to install drivers for fastboot if you use Windows. Sometimes you might need to unplug the usb, then plug it back in again & try fastboot again.
It should at least give an error.

What's the point in using fastboot to flash clockworkmod, it's just another way of doing it, some may prefer other ways (yeah via rom manager is a lot easier i know) but spread the knowledge, may be of use to some people.

You don't need your phone to be rooted to use fastboot, it's a method for new stock roms that have all the common root exploits fixed.
So, what's the point in this method when using Rom Manager is much easier? If you've already rooted your phone then this has to be one of the hardest possible ways to install clockworkmod.

I was never able to get fastboot working for my blade, always had driver issues, yet adb was fine. So I was able to use this method to flash and try the clockworkmod recovery touch that was released for us (turned out to be useless haha) but that couldn't be done via rom manager (well yeah, but you had to pay and i'm a poor student) so that's an example of when it could be useful.
point aside this is just another way, I just want people to learn as i am here to learn too.
Permission Denied
I need to flash CWM recovery using this adb method since I dont have data on the phone(Videocon Zeus V7500.. a clone of Commtiva Z51).
I have all the files in the right places but when I put the first command I get the following error :
I:\>adb push c:\flash_image /sdcard/
failed to copy 'c:\flash_image' to '/sdcard//flash_image': Permission denied ,
What permissions do I have to grant?
Try adb push c:/flash_image /sdcard/flash_image

Nevermind I figured it out, the problem was that I had mounted sd card to PC and I guess that was causing the problems.
I got it to work and have flashed CWM recovery now
Code:
I:\>adb push c:\flash_image /sdcard/
751 KB/s (26172 bytes in 0.034s)
I:\>adb push c:\recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.3-z71.img /sdcard
2444 KB/s (3831808 bytes in 1.531s)
I:\>adb shell
$ su
su
# su
su
# mount -o remount, rw /system
mount -o remount, rw /system
# cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin
cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin
# cd /system/bin
cd /system/bin
# chmod 777 flash_image
chmod 777 flash_image
# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.3-z71.img
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.3-z71.img
Thanks you very much for this thread
