Hey Boys and Girls,
where i can find an manual to root the tattoo with a mac?
sorry, i have search for this, but i cant find information for this
I don't thing that there is a difference.
As soon as you have SDK installed and adb works, the commands are the same.
hi,
i'm also doing all the rooting process from mac, just put the directory contain 'adb' shell into your home/user places and executing it with 'terminal'..
Same here, using a Mac ever since and also using it for Android development. Due to the underlying Unix core of OS X you just have to follow the steps as described for Linux. If it's just adb commands it's the same on every platform anyway.
You might want to add a
Code:
export PATH=${PATH}:/Users/yourusername/android.sdk/tools
to your .bash_profile file in your home folder so you don't have to cd to the SDK tools folder everytime. Happy rooting!
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
Okay thanks for yours answers but i'm a newbie.
the background story is, I want to edit the boot.mp3. Because the startsound is really annoying
So i have download SDK, open the terminal and switch to usb-debbugging mode on my tattoo.
And now? sorry, I'm still missing a few knowledge
thanks for your help
well just use the various adb commands in Terminal Just type in "adb", press enter and you'll get a list of all possible commands. Assuming you've added the path to your sdk tools folder to your bash profile. Otherwise just drag & drop the adb binary from the tools folder onto your Terminal window, et voila.
The most used commands are probably push and pull where you can, well, push stuff to your phone or pull it to your computer.
So if you want to modify the boot.mp3 you would pull the original from the phone to your computer, modify it and push it back, overwriting the original file. In Terminal speak: ;-)
adb pull /system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3
adb push /path/to/boot.mp3 /system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3
Please note depending on the ROM you're using the paths may be different. To browse the device via Terminal type in "adb shell" and make a simple "ls" to list the directories, "cd" to change directories etc.
Or if you just want to use another mp3:
adb push /path/to/whatever.mp3 /system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3
Again, on the Mac you can just drag & drop files onto the Terminal to get their full Unix paths like to your custom mp3
Thanks a lot. i love it its really simple
and now i have load and edit the the boot.mp3. But i can't push it to my tattoo, because i can only read but not write
I have tried to root my phone with "adb root" but it is the message "adbd cannot run as root in production builds"
Terminal: "adb remount", then push again
damn the next bad message "remount failed: Operation not permitted"
You need to root your phone first.

Okay i have executed the instructions. But I've stop at this part:
You should get something like this:
Code:
# id
uid=0(root) gid=1000(shell) groups=1003(graphics),1004(input),1007(log),1011(adb),1015(sdcard_rw),3001(net_bt_admin),3002(net_bt),3003(inet)
uid=0(root) is important.

Yes i've root but i'cant download the "su binary" because its doesnt exist.
But its absolute essential to need the "su binary" to only copy the boot.mp3 to my phone? Or there is an other way? What are the commands to push the boot.mp3 back to may tattoo then i'm in the root mode like >> "#".
okay hope you understand me
You need "su" to do root stuff... no other way.
Download the package from 1 click root thread and find "su" there...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644279
now, i have install the su binary. Then i does this command

And now? Is there a comand to push the boot.mp3 back to the phone in this mode >> "#" ?

but the answer is
failed to copy '/Users/android-sdk-mac_86/boot.mp3' to '/system/media/bootscreen/boot.mp3': Permission denied

and adb remount doesnt work to
You also need tattoo-hack.ko file and do insmod tattoo-hack.ko to make /system writable.
Or even better... flash custom amon_ra recovery image and then a custom rom with all this already included.
Mine for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=702401
It doesnt have boot sound enabled
Okay thank you very much.
now it was successful

You may have to run visionary and reboot a few more times to make root privileges stick.
My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!
Try this:
: adb shell (this should give $)
:$ su (next line type su, this should give you prompt on Super user to allow permission)
:# ( once you get this your good)

Try to install visionary and then re install open click temp root then permoot super user should ask to approve click yes. After that restart

ok everytime i try adb shell in terminal emulator it says the permission denied, im gonna try the first reply again and then see....any other ideas?
also guys, when i try and run visionary again it says your device is already rooted, along with when i type su in TE, it gives # with superuser permissions quote showing on bottom of screen, but i was trying to run adb commands from pc or from te and they still show permission denied. SetCPU works.

Ok, go into adb shell and type su + enter. Watch your phone when you do this. Superuser should ask if you want to allow "unknown" root privileges. "unknown" is adb. Click allow and your problems should go away.

I ran into this same issue and it drove me crazy. I would not get prompted by the phone to allow su permissions when going through ADB- kept getting "permission denied"
I did finally get SU permissions through ADB, but I dont recall exactly what I did to get prompted to allow access.
I will try to retrace what I did... believe I had ADB shell running (without su permissions "$"), but I also had terminal emulator running on my phone. I entered the su command on my phone, then I did the same from ADB shell.
Finally the phone prompted me to allow access - accepted - and no problems from that point.
Basically, I just had to keep f'n with it.
Yeah thats my problem exactly. Yeah I appreciate any assistance you can provide. I mean my pc reads my device when I adb devices command, but it wont allow nothing past that. Please keep me informed on anything I can try, also im not thag most fluent with using sdk/adb stuff so any additional info with using that is much appreciated thanks again fellow enthusiasts!

Have you tried to bacup su, then uninstall su. Reinstall su, Then try it again. MIGHT work
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
yeah i re-installed su and didnt help, @dbiggs-what can i do thru adb to initiate the su permissions to the device like you did?
I wish I could help more specifically, but I dont remember exactly what I did that allowed me access- just kept trying
Maybe try this...(dont be offended if any of these steps are ones that you already know or have tried, I am just trying to be as thorough as I can from memory)
Open up super user, then go back to the terminal emulator and enter the "su" command to gain superuser permissions.
Plug the phone into the computer, select charge only, enter ADB through tools (probably "C:\Android\tools" if your Android folder is in the root of your harddrive).
from the prompt C:\Android\Tools, enter:
adb shell
then you will get the "$" that you mentioned.
enter the "su" command, and hopefully you will get prompted to allow superuser permissions for ADB.
I am pretty sure these are the steps that I took, just had to keep trying.
Lemme know how it works out.
I see some people here asking about getting su privileges in adb, however I do have SU and I can run su in adb shell. My problem is that I am trying to push some files and use Android Commander. I can't run "adb remount" (remount failed: Operation not permitted), I can't copy files in Android Commander (it's says that I do not have ROOT)
How can I get Read-Write in ADB ??
Edit: Oh, now I got it, I don't have root in ADB, when i type "adb root" it says "adbd cannot run as root in production builds"
Did anyone figure this out? I'm being denied on TE and PC also.
I have managed to be able to get around this issue by going into recovery mode on my phone.
If the end result that you are looking for is to adb push files, then the easier way to do this is to flash clockwork recovery to your phone, then start your phone into recovery mode, mount system and you should be able to push files no problem.
Lemke know if this helps.

I'm pretty sure your issue has nothing to do with SU access. Most likely, your phone is simply mounting as r/o (read only) when it boots up, so ADB is unable to change anything to the system folder. The easiest way to mount as r/w (Read/Write) is to go into Root Explorer and click the r/w button in the top right corner, and then go to ADB and see if it will allow you to do the same commands that it previously denied.
I have the same issue with my phone mounting as r/o by default, but I haven't been able to figure out how to automount as r/w on the MT4G. If anyone knows how, please share.
I had this same issue, on several android phones including MT4G. Here is how I fixed it.
1. Connect phone via usb (I was in "charge only" mode, not disk drive mode)
2. Open command prompt and navigate to the android tools folder
3. type "adb shell"
4. MAKE SURE YOUR PHONE SCREEN IS ON AND UNLOCKED
- The above step is very important otherwise you will not get the SU prompt
5. At the "$" prompt type "su"
6. Your phone should now display the SU screen asking you to allow the connection root access.
7. Once you allow it, you are golden.
I did this on a windows pc. Hope it helps.
To start off I want to say, I am NOT claiming to have created this exploit, I am merely letting people know that it works on the arc.

you need to execute the commands in the origional post via ADB with USB debugging enabled, because the location is in the system and ironicly you dont have the root privelages to delete them

I have attached it to this post. ADB is the Android Debug Bridge. It is used to excecute commands on android devices. Just extract the zip, then open a command prompt and change to the directory of ADB, then excecute the commands.
if you get the error for esset you need to remove all the files inside to /data/local/tmp/
press: adb shell
press ls /data/local/tmp
and remove one by one the files as my example:
$ ls /data/local/tmp/
ls /data/local/tmp/
Superuser.apk
Gingerbreak
runscript
sysrun
$ rm /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
rm /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
$ rm /data/local/tmp/Gingerbreak
rm /data/local/tmp/Gingerbreak
$ rm /data/local/tmp/runscript
rm /data/local/tmp/runscript
$ rm /data/local/tmp/sysrun
rm /data/local/tmp/sysrun
and now try again with app and may it works (in my case, works)

maybe I should've mentioned I'm on a Mac computer with no access to windows....damn, this is so frustrating....
Ah... Its still possible you just have to get the android sdk for mac.
Get the SDK from here
Then in the tools folder ADB should be there
Then its commands as normal I think... not sure tho, don't have a mac.
Search around on here for tutorials, I'm sure someone has put up a tutorial on setting up adb on mac

Does GingerBreak work with this version of Gingerbread 4.5.601.A955.Verizon.en.us? My phone is currently rooted with Z4Root 1.3. Is there an easy way of doing this?

Use the d3 root method. Works fine.

The D3 one click didnt work for me. It tries to reboot and the phone sits at the "Battery OK OK to Program Transfer Mode: USB" mode.
I was rooted before the update. I never used ROMS or anything just rooted for wireless tether and T backup. Not sure how to proceed but Im pretty happy with the update, fixed a bunch of issues for me.
Anyone else not able to root after the ginger ota?

Hi everyone,
I have the same question as CSSZiegler, but want to expand on it a little bit...
I have a Droid 2 that was rooted with Z4Root 1.3 several months ago. I also have SetCPU, SuperUser and Titanium Backup. No custom ROMs installed. Big Red just pushed down GB, and of course, I've lost root access. I'd like to regain root again without losing any contacts, Handcent messages, etc. I've read on several forums that the D2 can be rooted just like the D3 with a simple "one-click" operation referenced by quarky42 earlier.
Any opinions or experience with this? I greatly appreciate any and all assistance!
update
My phone downloads the update, I click install now... it reboots and starts the install, then about 35% of the way through, it turns to a triangle with ! Inside. Phone reboots and displays message software update failed. Anyone know where to find a logfile or have any suggestions?
Droid2 android 2.2.. rooted. No custom rom.
Did you fully SBF to stock using RSDLite?
Also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1246673 has a flashable version.
I will as soon as I get a computer again, thanks for the link. Unfortunately my mobo died yesterday. So I was hoping for an alternative solution. It would also be nice to keep all my texts.. I'll google that one.
So any ideas on the logs or an alternative solution?

I had the same problem, and I think it is is because we already had Superuser installed. To remove it, from the directory where you downloaded the one click root, open the command window, then type adb shell
when you hit enter, the next line should end with a #
if it's $, run the one click again, then start this over
once you have the # prompt, type
mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/system /system
rm /system/bin/su
rm /system/xbin/su
hitting enter after each line.
After doing this, run the one click, and it should be fine. Worked great for me.

That error is usually because your trying to run the program from the wrong directory. Make sure your command line is started from the folder that adb.exe is located in. You can do this by Shift and right mouse button and “open command window here”.

I searched the phone's sd card.. I couldn't find it... do you know where adb.exe is located?
The fact that he said to hold shift and the right mouse button should tell you he's talking about a folder on your computer and not on your SD card.

I already rooted my kindle fire, downloaded android market I loggedin using a google account. After that I was unable to change the google account. Browsed web and I saw the post of the video. I followed the instructions in the video.
steps followed: using root explorer, went to /system/framework and renamed framework-res.apk and and after I completed the renaming, the device crashed (or I clicked something; hence crashed?) and stuck in blank carrousel page.
So, I rebooted and all I get now if boot logo of 'Kindle fire'. It doesnt go any forward.
I connected to PC and I am able to see the device in ADB. But no root access in shell. So, any adb command I give I get back errors like: no permission; read-only folder, etc.
When I use the Kindle fire utility v0.9.3 and try to do temp root or root, I get
Error type 2 android.util.AndroidException: Can't connect to activity manager; is the system running?
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
PC detects the device as 'Android Composite ADB interface'. But cant do anything in adb. I can push files to /data/local/tmp folder. Thats about it.
adb shell mount is not allowed
when I do
adb shell mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak /system/framework/framework-res.apk
I get:
failed on '/system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak' - Read-only file system
Can someone help rename this file back to original framework-res.apk?

You should be able to mount the system r/w with the proper command, hopefully someone will be here soon to give you the commands.
do you have fff & twrp available ?
if yes boot to twrp - there you have full adb availabe and you can copy your backup framework-res to the kf
same thing happened to me,but I made it worse and the computer wouldn't even detect the KF.I had to return it.
Sorry): I know how it feels

I already rooted my kindle fire, downloaded android market I loggedin using a google account. After that I was unable to change the google account. Browsed web and I saw the post of the video. I followed the instructions in the video.
steps followed: using root explorer, went to /system/framework and renamed framework-res.apk and and after I completed the renaming, the device crashed (or I clicked something; hence crashed?) and stuck in blank carrousel page.
So, I rebooted and all I get now if boot logo of 'Kindle fire'. It doesnt go any forward.
I connected to PC and I am able to see the device in ADB. But no root access in shell. So, any adb command I give I get back errors like: no permission; read-only folder, etc.
When I use the Kindle fire utility v0.9.3 and try to do temp root or root, I get
Error type 2 android.util.AndroidException: Can't connect to activity manager; is the system running?
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
PC detects the device as 'Android Composite ADB interface'. But cant do anything in adb. I can push files to /data/local/tmp folder. Thats about it.
adb shell mount is not allowed
when I do
adb shell mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak /system/framework/framework-res.apk
I get:

Try using 'adb remount' then try to rename it again.
if you get the 'Read-only file system' error again:
adb reboot
adb remount
try again
