Hey guys,
So my brother recently purchased a Bell Motorola Atrix. I have been trying to root it for him in order to install the hack where you can access the WebTop environment via a normal HDMI cable.
I tried SuperOneClick, and it says rooting successful (even after it does the test to determine if the device is rooted) and SuperUser does appear in the applications list. I also tried UniversalAndroot, also to no avail.
However, any applications that require root claim that the device is not rooted.
Are there any other ways of rooting this device? Or am I just doing something wrong? (keep in mind I have rooted several other devices with SuperOneClick, and those have all been successful)
Please help,
Thanks,
DS1495
look for "adeo" in the dev forum. try that
Try rebooting? That's what happened with mine.

DONT DO THIS.
He has a Bell Atrix.
I had to toggle debug on and off a few times before it would move past waiting for device.
Make sure you have the mkro drivers installed. Also the phone should be in phone portal mode, I believe.
Good luck

I don't think it matters what it's set as, but I believe most devs recommend none.

Thanks guys, aRoot worked wonderfully! First try!
I have tried the aRoot on the Atrix I just bought yesterday from Bell (I am now a bell customer :-( ) but it doesn't work. I must be missing something. I double click the script, it runs through all the steps, even says, rebooting at the bottom, but it does nothing. I press any key to continue, and nothing.
any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Figured it out, turns out it wasn't recognizing the adb driver.
nick78ru said:
Had this problem. While connected (as USB storage) uncheck USB debugging and and enable it again. Check in Control Panel=>Device manager for ADB Services (should be at the top with sublisting for Motorola usb device or smthing like that).
Then open command promt:
cd\
cd\AndroidSDK(or whatever you called the SDK folder)\tools\
adb devices
Let me know if it helps

ok i started rooting my phone with unrevoked 3 as i was told here on the site. it loaded and said it found my evo and rebooted my phone. then i scroll down to hboot usb and hit the power button and my phone does nothing. on my screen a pop up comes up saying, "windows needs to install driver software for your android 1.0" and i do not have a disc nor can i find these files. meanwhile my phone wont turn off or on. have i bricked my device? someone please help me or walk me thru please. i dont have insurance!
Do you get that message on the screen of your phone?
Are you sure you properly installed the hboot drivers as instructed in the unrevoked 3 instructions.
1. Windows users MUST install the HBOOT drivers for this to work:

It should be an app that you already have if you're rooted. Someone else chime in if I'm wrong about that one.
it must not be rooted bc when i go to sprint hotspot. it recognizes my evo's wifi signal on my computer like it did before, but it still only connects as local and doesnt allow internet access. does anyone have any advice as to how i can check if the unrevoked root worked or not. thanks so much

Download "Terminal Emulator". It's a free app. Open it up and type SU and then enter. You should see this if you are rooted--> #
yes when i did that it said something is requesting super user and i hit allow. and at that point a # sign came back.

Even with root, you cannot use the Sprint hotspot app for free tethering. You have to use Android Wireless Tether that's available in the market. Android Wireless Tether needs root in order to work its magic.
So I got the Froyo update and it killed my ability to tether and root.
Seriously, Im even having trouble with WIRED tethering. Its not working and wont root.
Please point me in the direction of some noob friendly step by step instructions for installing a custom rom that is tethering friendly, along with any info for simply getting wired or wireless tethering to work after the Froyo update?
You shouldn't have installed the update.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
Yeah I know. Is there nothing I can do now?
They say they can bring you back to 2.1 if you take it to the shop. Does the update do anything that prevents installing ROMs? When they bring you back to 2.1, will that fix whatever they did or is it in that version now too?
Why can't you root?
Because I accepted the update and the update killed root and tethering for me? I guess there was a way to upgrade without accepting that update.
z4root wont work, and also it says that the OS no longer has the drivers to support the free wireless tethering apps.
......Did you read the OP?
So how am I supposed to root if I cant even use clockwork to install new roms without root access? Am I totally ****ed? Should I just return this phone and get one from Verizon?
Yes I read the OP but the 2.2.1 update doesn't prevent rooting again. If it did, I wouldn't be rooted right now.
I'm not sure what you did or didn't do, but the one click method works.
hes never been one clicked. he only used z4root.

z4root is hokey. you need to use the oneclick root. its really simple.

use this thred. it is for real root, not z4. also, the drivers are installed on your computer, not your phone.

Thank you for something helpful finally.
That makes sense. I tried installing it on my phone. Thank you for noticing that.
You know, if you wrote these instructions for noobs it would really help....For example, when we are dealing with not 1 but 2 devices, it might be helpful to describe which device is doing what. One minute I am doing something with the phone and the next its just "install this"....Dumb it down a bit, like you are talking to people who dont know anything about anything.
Anyway, thanks. Im going to try this now.

Don't feel too bad. I had to read that stuff several times before even deciding whether I should try it.
It keeps saying phone is not connected, even though it says USB-storage is enabled and I can access the files on my phone.
Don't click on mass storage.....and turn on usb debugging

The NON-One click solution seems doable but complicated, and I dont really know what I am doing.
Im thinking about paying somebody to root the phone properly. One person advertised in the SF Bay Area that I know of.

OK. Now it says rage against the cage is missing.
The file is clearly there, but VLC media player wants to open it instead of anything useful.
do you use any sort of anti virus? it will remove things from the ragagainstthecage exploit. disable you antivirus for a few minutes and redownload the the rootpackage. im not saying thats what the problem is, im just saying antivirus clashes with the root method.
A little effort goes a long way. Getting root is easy for the epic. Install the samsung drivers, turn on usb debuging on phone, extract the oneclick folder and run the "run.bat" file and let it do its thing.

I had that problem also and it turned out that I was trying to run it from a networked drive. I had to unzip the file to my computer desktop then run the program from there before it worked properly.
If you check out this thread there is a how to video i made to root and flash a rom. Check it out, I think it will help you out.

make sure correct samsung drivers are installed on your computer (32 or 64)
download and extract once click root to your computer
Enable usb debugging on your phone (settings - applications - development - usb debugging)
Plug phone into computer
Run run.bat, wait, and enjoy.
So I installed the Verizon OTA update and now I seem to have lost root. I was rooted via Z4. Now when I click root, it just vibrates and nothing happens. I cant use rooted apps any more. The Superuser app is still present, though it doesnt do anything. Can I just do the oneclick root over the Z4? I really don't want to ruin the tab. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
* I am running stock rom.
Thanks
After any ROM update root has to be lost. On new ROMs z4root does not work, that is right. Try to find SuperOneClickv1.7_ShortFuse - it really works with latest updates. Put the package on your C:\ disk. Run executable with administrator rights, otherwise it will not work out. If you have any anti-virus running on PC - stop it before copying the package to disk, otherwise it will immediately kill one of the files in package (this one is not a virus!).
Hope this helps.

It is not so funny, many people just are trying rooting without drivers... Please see some details here, it may help probably
Where do I get the drivers and how do I install? I found SuperOneClick1.8ShortFuseDrivers but I'm not sure if that's it and how to install if it is.
Thanks.
It took a while but I finally found the drivers and was able to root successfully. However Titanium backup still says it can't get root access....
EDIT: I had debugging off. Works now.
I have been putting off doing the VGT update for fear of having to reroot or something else going wrong but I got sick of that pop up so I said what the hell and went for it. . . .
And I still have root. . .
But I am running just about stock everything, I have not found or seen any good reason to run a custom rom yet.
Now it there was a way to run CM7 I would love that!! I have that on my Evo and love how fast my phone is.
But to the point. . . Are we all getting the same update? Again I just did it and I have not lost root.

I was previously rooted with Z4. I installed the "mandatory" Verizon update and of course lost root, Z4 and Superuser no longer worked. Found your post, tried it on my XP SP3 machine with no luck, kept coming up with daemon not running or something like that. Just now tried it on a Vista machine and it worked flawlessly. I did have to reboot for it to work, did not see that mentioned anywhere here, but after a reboot my apps that require rooting are once again working.

It is not mentioned because it is considered to be done "by default" - after any system update a tablet must be rebooted...
Finally 370 is rooted easely and whitout risk
Just connect tab and run install.bat
(and remember to have USB debugging on)

Is it for WiFi version only??
waiting for LTE version ....
Thread Moved
Thread is moved to General Forum.
Reason;
Not original development but only a link to a tool created by somebody else.

Works perfectly!
It should be noted (for the noobs) that USB debugging has to be activated first on the tablet before connecting to the PC.

a n00b question, does Voodoo rootkeeper work in Xperia phones like it does in motorolas. coz samsung phones have this issue with OTA if your rooted.
or if the developer of this root tool can also offer a tool to unroot. i dont know much about flashing so please spare me the rants.
if its as easy as the TS described "Just connect tab and run install.bat" then i can get a good night sleep

Sometimes rootkeeper Works some not -depending on firmware/model etc.
But just run 370 firmware and turn debugging on asure your Windows adb drivers Work (recognize device)
And you have root whitout risking any thing
Go for it you Will love it :highfive:

By the way, the rootkeeper app didn't work for me.

Hello everyone,
// READ THIS BEFORE PROCEEDING \\
Attention all:
With being successful on getting the Vivo Air rooted, there comes a time were we forget we have root, in this case, I did. Now read this very carefully...
DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT TAKE AN OTA WHILE ROOTED!!!!!!! You WILL HAVE A BRICK IN YOUR HANDS!
So those who just stroll by in XDA, please understand that you need to unroot before taking any ota. I bricked my device and had to buy a new one, plus there is no way to recover from a brick at this time.
You have been warned!!
// END OF IMPORTANT NOTE \\
You may continue after you have read ^^^^
With some unsuccessful attempts of rooting this device, I have done some reading on getting this bad boy rooted.
I need to throw I'm here a small disclaimer. I, myself, bit the bullet in attempting this. You are solely responsible for what you do to your device. If you are uncomfortable with attempting this, please steer away.
I haven't broken into a system dump yet or been able to get the blocks yet for fastboot if you encounter a issue. I cannot help you with restoring the device if something fails. You have been warned. If you would like to continue, please keep reading
I have tried several different rooting methods:
-framaroot
-towel root
-king root
-RootGenius
-SRS Root
These are all the methods that DID NOT WORK!
With that in mind, I was chatting in another thread with @abhishekr700 , he had a good point in the direction of getting the Vivo Air Rooted. He does not own this device but he mentioned we have a MediaTek chipset. I checked out some specs and it turns out our MTK chipset is MTK6592. MediaTek Root Tools does, in fact, support our exact chipset.
@abhishekr700 suggested MediaTek Tools for a possible achievement in root.
Well, we have a small break through on getting the Vivo Air some development now.
After the small fill in and proper credit, I attempted root by using MediaTek Root Tools.
Let's just say, it's extremely easy. However, getting ADB working for the phone was a bit tedious without a proper driver or a nice direction. I had to do some studying on this.
Turns out we need to use the generic Google ADB driver.
The moment you plug in your device, it should recognize the phone and phone only, Windows was able to achieve a driver for the phone. So after fussing with trying to get ADB working I was livid and figured I should try a few other things.
I completely removed all drivers associated with the Vivo Air which was just the one.
After all that talk, let's get down to business. Sorry about that little section as well
First and foremost, let's get some pre-reqs ready and have a backup route setup.
A) Download MediaTek Root Tools located here:
androiddevs.net/root-tool-mediatek-phones/
-1) scroll down to the "Procedure" section and download the PDA NET DRIVERS.
-2) also download the GRAPHICAL AUTO ROOT TOOL (This is the root tool we will use).
B) Please go to developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html and download this Google USB Driver. (We may need this later, if and only if your pc doesn't recognize ADB is enabled from your phone).
Now with that out of the way as well, let's move on.
Next...
1- install PDANet and select all the general stuff for the phone. Once you get to the part about enabling ADB, click skip.
2- on your device, please go to Settings>All Settings>About Phone and tap rapidly on "Build Number" till it says "You've enabled Developer Mode"
Now back out to the settings menu again. Tap on Developer Options. Turn this on with the little slider in the right hand corner. Following that, check on USB Debugging.
3- plug in your phone.
4- let the drivers install now, give it a few minutes. Depending on your version, the Vivo Air does not have an icon in the Status Bar displaying Debugging is active. So pay close attention to the pop up bar that you receive at the bottom of the phone. Turn on Interim.
5- now extract the root tool and launch the .exe file.
You'll see some Chinese thing. Just tap the button in the middle, and you should see it starts. It will give you a progress loading circle and will reboot your phone to the recovery the Vivo Air comes stock with.
6- if successful, when the phone reboots, look for a app called KingUser. This is to confirm you have root
Download BusyBox and install the binaries just to be safe and bam successful root!!!
I will fill this spot in with more about how the pc may need to manually install the ADB driver. In just a few.
Other than that, you should be good to go!
Thanks to The developer of the Graphical root tool and @abhishekr700 for suggesting that I should go this route.
If someone runs into the ADB issue please notify me if I have not updated the thread with the new information!
Thanks for dropping by and enjoy your rooted Vivo Air
This is the first step.

Oh man. You had to fight through that? Dang. I was afraid of that. So essentially, we would have to force install the adb driver. I'll add it in to. I will help you guys on that one.

@abhishekr700 is correct, if you fire up KingUser you can actually unroot from the app itself. See attached photo.
You would just click on settings gear and then select remove root permission.

At this current moment in time, you are correct. I couldn't find a MediaTek tool for mac. You could try to do it via a Virtual Box. Or maybe dual boot a small partition of windows on your mac. That's totally up to you, however, those would only be the options right now.

Hey jjvalor59,
For the adb not being recognized, please follow these steps located here: http://visualgdb.com/tutorials/android/usbdebug/manualinstall.php
In the 1st post, please download the google driver if you haven't already.
Skip to step 5 and start from there. With the generic drivers already installed, once you open device manager, there should be one unrecognized driver classified as Unknown with the name of "Blu Vivo Air Phone".
The steps following #5 will explain how to forcefully install the adb driver. After successfully doing so, please reboot your PC and plug in your device again and you should have interim checked on your phone fe the pop up. This should now allow you to run the root process
