hey i have a lg o1. i had rooted the stock rom and using the dooklinux kernel for overclocking. i updated it yesterday to gingerbread by the lg updater...
no data deleted.. no apps deleted.. my superuser app is intact but the phone says it does not have root to run root application like titanium backup etc... it has the stock 2.3.3..
while running gingerbreak.apk the phone just opens the app and when i touch the root option the loading comes up saying my phone is being rooted and it will restart in some time and it goes on and on.. d phone never restarts!!! i want to overclock it.. or atleast want to remove the superuser app.. wht to do??

U cant root with gingerbreak, search for guides on how to root in the LG p500 general section

because you have flashed the LG stock 2.3.3 hence your phone is now not rooted.
i'm not sure but i don't think i see any root tool available for 2.3.3 yet.
you can flash back the LG stock 2.2, and get it root again, and flash a custom gingerbread rom

DO this it works for me
in ADB:
adb devices
adb shell
echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf
don't close ADB just leave it as it is.
then open superoneclick and root (using psneuter).
note:if it loops just uncheck debug mode and again enable it...
u will be rooted !!Happy rooting!

How can I check if my Aria is rooted?

Hey guys long time htc phone guy, fist time andriod user. I just rooted my phone and I would to know if there is a way to check that its rooted.
Restart/reboot and if the "whoosh" att boot logo junk is gone...youre good!
not true, unless you have installed some custom ROM which removes the AT&T flash screen.
An easy way to check if you have root is to try to install an application which requires root previlege.
Or, since most root method will install SuperUser, check if you have a SuperUser application installed.

[Q] How to overclock my G2 without ABD

Is there a way to over clock the G2 without using the ABD method ??? Because I dont have a home computer and my G2 is my only thing thats linking me to the net...
If your rooted just download the kerenl zip file and place it on the root of your sd card and flash it from recovery. You can do all of that from your phone.
If your not rooted then you must first get temp root using Visionary, then use the Gscript method, all of which can be done with your phone. Heres a video on how to do it from blackprince310

Your not planning to perm root your phone?? Cause stock rom doesn't have any built in kernels so u can only use script to overclock your phone but if your perm rooted u can use setcpu to automatically change ur profiles or automatically overclock u every reboot without the hassle..

Root Problems

Hello XDA community, I have a root problem on my device. Im using Super_ONE_Click to root my Vibrant on 2.2 Froyo UVKA6 with Kernel V. 2.6.32.9
The problem is that somehow the root access is declining attempts from applications like Root Tools, Titanium BackUP, Root Explorer ect.... When i root the phone it did installed the Super User (SU) apk to the phone but is not giving me permissions to root access.
What it went wrong when it was ok before and now it dont. How can i root my device using a different method then SOC?
Is there anything I can do?
I dont want to start all over again installing soft and games as it took me lot of time to get the SD files for the games I have.
Any advise to root before going to ODIN as a last option?
Thanks guys

I saw a post by Android wizard extraordinaire, CellZealot, over at MyDroidForums, who claims :
"... it supports root and is an excellent build. It also supports using the band unlock and GSM performance is far superior to the previous radio firmware. Overall this build is incredibly stable and without question the best build yet for this phone."
That's good enough for me.
Has anyone received this OTA yet? Nothing yet for my two in NY (one rooted, one not).

Does this update require that I unroot my phone prior to it?
Could any person who has received the update upload it somewhere, please? I cannot wait to update my phone and root it again. I have tried to update it but it keeps telling me I have the latest software version.
Scanned the net and no one has posted the update...hopefully someone here will soon
nottin in new jersey checked on moto droid pro system update whats up with this enyone got this update runnin thankssss
There was a renewal. Loading ...
:-(
Was rooted. Installed OTA update without problems. Then applications like Titanium Backup can not longer get root privileges. Ran Z4Root to Permanent Root again, it crashes and leaves phone unstable, most of the time freezing a few seconds later and I have to remove battery :-(

Blarg, don't like the sound of that. I'm nit sure that my wife uses any root apps but there is just something wrong with an android phone that does not have root.
I used SuperOneClick 1.7 to get root again after apply this update.

I second that!! Bloody takes them ages this time ... wonder why the holdup with some devices?? Its not like theres a million of Droid Pros out there ...
OK, so I can also root with SuperOneClick 1.7 after the update, but the apps like Titanium still can't get root from the SuperUser app. adb shell su also gets Permission denied (after reboot). Any hints?
Edit: problems solved by using aRoot. My conclusion: run aRoot post-update, not z4root nor SuperOneClick.
I lost root after the update and tried Z4Root with no results. SuperOneClick worked after I tried both root methods and rebooted the phone.
I am using AntTek App Manager to remove bloat without any issue. The phone seems more responsive and I have not had any random reboot until now.
Yep - aroot after the update worked. Re-froze the junk via Titanium and my Pro is running well.
For those like me who didn't know how to use aRoot:
Quoted from designgears
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=981866
http://ponack.net/designgears/atrix/aRoot/
"How to use:
note: xp users, you will get an error about the TIMEOUT function, ignore it.
Enable USB Debugging on your phone (settings > applications > development > enable USB debugging)
Plug your phone into your computer
Extract aRoot.7z
Run aRoot.bat (run unRoot.bat to unroot)"

My Acer a500 wont unroot

My tab did the same, but when I check root with terminal emulator, i discovered that my tab was no longer rooted. Type su into the terminal emulator field.
Install iconiaRoot and unroot it,the same way you rooted it.You should have made an initial backup from the beginning,but iconiaRoot should work.
nope, probably won't work.
superuser app is gone, but the su binaries are still in system/xbin/

Make sure USB debugging is enabled under settings/applications. If it's been disabled it won't unroot.
