Titanium Backup Cant Find Root

I have an htc incredible with 2.2 froyo installed.
version 2.2
kernel 2.6.32.15
baseband 2.15.00.07.28
and s-off
When I startup titanium backup the app says that it can not find root.
it is allowed in superuser, and super user starts up fine as well as some other root only apps.
Help?

Probably saying something about installing busybox, too. Right?

Firstly sorry for asking dumb questions, I didn't see the problems button at first.
Secondly what does busy box do. Doesn't super user already give it all the permissions it needs?

Idk but just open busybox, first time it always fails for me. Just click install again then titanium will work.

busybox is like DOS/*nix/etc prompt, only that it processes commands in the background. Even you have a working copy of Busybox installed, it's a good idea to hit said button and download a specific version of Busybox for TB (don't worry, it doesn't overwrite any existing copy of busybox).

[Q] root htc hd2 android HELP PLEASE

hi everybodye sorry for the question but im new on this, well i have a htc hd2 from tmobile, i install android nand, following directions of a forum from here, everything is working good, i install setcpu from market and it do not let me configure it,so i install root check and it said is NOT rooted, my question is how can i root my phone,, please help.. thanx a lot and sorry if my question is stupid for some of you guys

As long as you have hspl you should be rooted. I would check to make sure you have setcpu superuser permission

thanx so much for you answer and not make fun of me, well yes i installed hspl3, and when it done it said we hack it, but root checker still say, sorry you dont have root access can you please tell me how to check superuser permission, thanx so much,,

Look in your app tray and see if you have a Superuser icon. If you do then ckick in it and then find where it says allow superuser access. Most Andriod ROMs for tbe HD2 are already rooted when you install them. If you do not have a Superuser icon then Google "z4root" it is a one click root app that works. You will have to dowmload it unzip/extract the apk and copy it to your SD card and then use a file manager to navigate to the apk file and open it this will install the app to your phone. This is also what is known as "sideloading" in Andriod. Open the app and click on Root now button and it will root your phone.

Using a cpu overclock app has a downside as well as the upside of a faster response when in use.
The downside is that when downclocked and idle, the phone can take a couple of seconds to clock up to the operating speeds required - on some roms its more noticable than others. but a good solid ROM does not need this boost and there a few on here

please help

Deleting System APP

Hey all
I need to remove FACEBOOK, so that I can use the launcher pro facebook widget, but its saying invalid key file when trying to log into it.
Soooooooooooo , how do I remove the original facebook ?
There only seems a force quit option , and then I cant delete it
Any help welcome
Thanks, as always
Stephen

I think you need to be rooted to do this.
Just go to the /system/app/ folder and you'll find the Facebook.apk. Delete it, and reboot.
--an Explorer is needed--
if you dont have an explorer installed (i.e. Root Explorer, or ES file explorer) then you can use adb
in cmd type 'adb shell'
then the following...
>su
>rm /system/app/Facebook.apk
(notice the capital 'F' in Facebook. the shell is case sensitive)

Brilliant , thanks I will give it a try

Only custom ROMS can remove stock apps

Yea, it says cant be removed
Any other suggestions ?
Twitter works ok, but on the launcher pro facebook widget it says error:invalid_key
any other suggestions ?
Steve

Off course you need to be rooted and you can download titanium backup from market to easily remove system app. Use it with great caution!!!

Thanks , I downloaded that, and I am not ROOTED (which I understand means it needs root priviliages to remove the program)
Soooooooooooooo , how do I get it rooted ?
Thanks

I still havntdone this , and still cant remove facebook and its driving me MAD !!!

Thanks
Steve

Just start from the downgrade the system and then , root, s-off,.......... It is a lot of tutorials. use serch button

Even if you're not intending to install CyanogenMod I found their guide to be the easiest to understand.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Desire_HD:_Rooting

But dont forget once u have rooted and removed facebook u will not be able to install any ota updates from htc. Based on the bug infested updates so far that may not be a bad thing.
Sent from my HTC HD so may contain typos, bugs and, if the battery lasts, pearls of....(battery 0%)

Also if you have root permissions, use Root Explorer, go to system --> app --> and delete the Facebook app. Then you no need to hack with adb or computer.

Phone suddenly says its not rooted?!? Help

I just started using DX and then i tried to use system app remover to delete something and then it says my phone is not rooted? i still have superuser and rootexplorer works. Busybox cannot be installed because its not rooted?
Any suggestions?? i need to root again or what??
Weird because root explorer works..and superuser is still there.

you have to root it again,
it wont remove any files
so if you did it once a second time wont be as hard

I also use Ginger DX, and have the same problem as yours. System App Remover seems not compatible with GingerDX. I suggest u to use Titanium Backup to uninstall system app. It works well with GingerDX.

This is a known bug... please refer to this thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205566
Let's just hope the fund raiser is a success and DX will get a new X8 soon

1. try to get in terminal emulator (if you have one) and type there "su"
and check if ($ goes to # )
2. you might delete some essential app which helps system work in rooted mode so try to reinstall ROM. if still doesn't work try to root that again. (it's quite easy with super user one click)

just root it again.. only 1 click

No no no guys! It's a bug in the GingerDX series. Just wait for doixanh to fix it.

[Q] I dont have full root aces. Can you help me?

I have LG optimus one and Iam try new rom Omnirom beta 7 and beta 7.1. Iam saw ther isnt any superuser app and Iam try flash SuperSU (chainfire) and SuperUser (CloakWorkMod) with cwm recowery 6.4.0.6 and twrp 2.7.0.0.
Now I can run some apps like a total commander with superuser aces, Rom manager, but Iam style not can run titanium backup and lot of more. Sorry my English. Thanks for all reply.

Just FYI it is recommended to run twrp and su. Regarding you question: can you use the functionality that requires root in the apps you mentioned to be working? If not you simply have no su access at all. In case you can run them go into the su UI under settings and see if you can manually grant su permission to TiB and the like. It seems strange to me that super user should only work for some of your apps. I might be wrong though, I'm no expert.

This dont work
Iam dont saw a easy think. My result app hawe root aces but adb no.
How to repair. Settings -> for developers ( If you dont see it, you must go to settings -> About phone and seven times touch build number)
In setings you mustvote apps & adb in defoult only apps.
