Root the kyocera echo!!! - Android Software Development

WE ARE ROOTED!!!
Okay, we have successfully found root for the Kyocera Echo (We have reached our goal folks!!!) So here is the Root method!
DISCLAIMER: This has to be done correctly, or you will have to reset your phone in order to run the Exploit again! Follow all instructions below please.
Credits:
All credits go to zergRush of XDA, Saridnour for his dedicated work to H.T.E. (Which will soon be Hear OUR Echo), and all who tested this to confirm its functionality and show me the proper way to do it!
A little Information:
I will be using my directory to my SDK folder for this tutorial (C:\sdk\tools) but whatever your directory is to SDK is what you will use.
Things you will need:
Android SDK (already set up)
A Kyocera Echo (duh!)
zergRush (XDA root exploit)
Root method:
1. Download zergRush and put the file (not the zip) in your tools folder of sdk
Open your CMD promt, then redirect to SDK (just type exactly what I type after you're in SDK)
(cd c:\sdk\tools) <-- SDK redirect
adb shell rm -r /data/local/temp/*
adb push zergRush /data/local/temp/zergRush
adb shell
chmod 755 /data/local/temp/zergRush
/data/local/zergRush
then you should see this:

[+] Rush did it ! It's a GG, man !
[+] Killing ADB and restarting as root..enjoy!
3. Afterwards, you will have to manually push SuperUser and Busybox (DO NOT UNPLUG THE PHONE)
find the SU and Busybox files here
Then, ADB push them with these commands:
Type: adb push GingerBreak /data/local/tmp/GingerBreak
Type: adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
Type: adb push su /data/local/tmp/su
Type: adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
AND THERE YOU HAVE IT, YOUR PHONE IS NOW ROOTED. HAVE FUN MODDING AND DOING WHATEVER ELSE. AS SOON AS SARIDNOUR AND H.T.E. COME OUT WITH THE RECOVERY, WE ARE ON TO CUSTOM ROMS!!!!
Thanks for supporting us this whole time,

Android 1.x / 2.x HTC Wildfire Local Root Exploit

Hi, I just found this post on packetstormsecurity with the code of an ingenious local root exploit for HTC Wildfire, which uses a flaw in the hotplug subsystem...

I'm wondering if this could be the first step for a new 1-click root app for Wildfire...

i dont have linux now, can someone compile it and put binary here as addon ?
yes, i have linux... is it just a normal gcc compile? shouldn't it have a flag for arm cpu?
tell me how to do it and i will post the binary
maybe take flags and settings from here:

but look at this date:

I made it!
Here is the binary
PS: Ubuntu Maverick has everything needed to build for arm architecture, just apt-get it...
$ sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi g++-arm-linux-gnueabi
did you tried to run it ?
No, I didn't... I'm trying to understand what to do next
Edit: it seems that I need the USB cable to use adb tool... I will try later when I will be at home.
I tried with terminal:
cat /sdcard/exploid > /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid
chmod 0755 /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid
/sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid
BUT this directory does not exist,error.
there is no sqlite_stmt_journals directory in wf
Maybe you have to connect the device to adb to make that directory appear.
the same while adb
No way
I connected my Wildfire to adb...
$ ./adb push exploid /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid
failed to copy 'exploid' to '/sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid': No such file or directory
I guess that HTC has fixed this bug... please, someone contradict me!
hmmm..
the blog is dated by: August 15, 2010 ...
Ok, I managed to run the executable (I recompiled it, it's attached)... this is the output from adb:
$ ./exploid

$
I copied the executable to /data/local/tmp/ because i can't find /sqlite_stmt_journals/ on my device...
And finally.... invoking hotplug (wifi on/off) does nothing!! But at least it runs...
Code:
cut
* Copy from sdcard to /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid, chmod 0755 and run.
* Or use /data/local/tmp if available (thx to ioerror!) It is important to
* to use /sqlite_stmt_journals directory if available.
cut
find this in exploid file....give it a try
use /data/local/tmp if available....
i've tried with no success no root access, no superuser, no titanium backup...
saluti, mario
Yes, I did it indeed.
I'm starting to think that this hack is for the stock Eclair, not for Froyo...
Lol martin did this method for the soft root ages ago.

I guess as you've already achieved root / S-OFF etc, you find the command to S-ON there will probably be a command switch to S-OFF. Failing that, when I S-OFF'd, it produced a backup.

Yes i do currently have S-OFF but need S-ON again because the phone is beeing returned for repairs..
Might be able to use rage, for temp root.

Re reading your post, i'm not sure psneuter is root for 1.34 i used it to get temp root on 1.72 downgraded and used rage for root on 1.34. Look in android development for the guide to downgrade and root (no links on app) start at after the 1.34 flash bit. gfree is the app that s-off so its likely gfree can also s-on. Running gfree with no switches should give a manual page, or just search gfree switches. (I'm not responsible for bricks etc!!)
Edit, rage gives temp root on 1.34
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Okay so i've managed to get root on the device ! Finally..
However i still have trouble running gfree.. i've tried a few methods but it gives me the same output
Code:
# /data/local/gfree -r /sdcard/part7backup-1298979588.bin
/data/local/gfree -r /sdcard/part7backup-1298979588.bin

# /data/local/gfree -s on -c HTC__Y13
/data/local/gfree -s on -c HTC__Y13
/data/local/gfree: 1: Syntax error: ")" unexpected
I "think" i managed to get root.. when i write 'adb shell' i dont go directly to a root shell, but only '$'. Writing 'su' phone ask me if i want to let permission to give a root shell which i accept whereafter i get the '#'
EDIT: Just tried it again using a newer version of gfree.. (The one i used above was 0.4) Same problems with gfree 0.7. But i have an idea that it can be because of this:
When i download the file 'gfree_07.zip' am i supposed to just rename this file to only 'gfree' without any extension and then with push it to phone with 'adb push gfree /data/local/' ? OR am i supposed to open the zip file and extract the gfree file within it and then push that file to the phone ?
Yes, you must unzip gfree_0x.zip file and move the extracted gfree binary file to your phone as instructions (and this thread) states. Good luck!!!
How I wish we wouldn't need to do this kind of trickery just to use our own phones as we wish...

[Q] I bricked my kindle fire with bad build.prop

I have try to edit my lines in build.prop to get better android market success, however I bricked my device after reboot.
The kindle stay in blank screen after show the kindle fire logo, it still can access through adb , and superoneclick detected it's root , but the system folder is read-only therefore I can't restore the build.prop.
I tried to use su / mount command but it can't do anything except permission denied
Is that possible to use fastboot to restore the system folder?
I tried to rename the kindle official bin to update.zip but fastboot cannot regonize it.
Anyone have a kindle fire system image dump which can be use with fastboot?
Thanks!!! and sorry for my bad english

tried many time’ but it's not working, zergrush can't root the device anymore... thx
This very same thing just happened to me today, here is my fix. I know you said that zergRush isn't rooting your device but I suspect that you are missing a step somewhere.
-Make sure that zergRush is in the same folder as adb (probably /android-sdk/platform-tools)
-follow steps 1 and 2 here
-now you need to mount /system as R/W
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
chmod 777 /system
then type
Code:
exit
to get out of shell
then you should be able to push build.prop to /system (make sure you have build.prop in the same folder as adb)
Code:
adb push build.prop /system
then reboot
Code:
adb reboot
Worked perfect for me!
Let me know if you have any other questions

oh i'm sure that's the case, i rooted my nook but only after it was stable across the board, knowing my own limitations. I'll keep tabs on the progress.
I bricked my kindle too a few days ago with a bad build.prop. Well, in my case, I somehow managed to move my build.prop to the wrong folder and thus was left with an unbootable kindle. I had root, but I was unable to give ADB permission to use root, so in practice I really didn't have root.
What I ended up doing to fix my kindle was booting into fastboot and then flashing a valid system.img to the system partition of the kindle. Ask around and see if anyone is willing to offer up a system.img and then search for instructions on how to flash a system.img to your fire (I think the command is:
flash -i 0x1949 system path/to/system.img
I was able to fully recover by following the instructions on this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19974461&postcount=23
If anyone has any questions I can answer I will do my best to do so. I kinda had to piece together information from a bunch of different posts because there is all-inclusive guide on fixing a build.prop error.

Android rooting - Linux port of DooMLoRD script - ICS as well as Gingerbread

Update: I have now also made a Linux port for DooMLoRD's rooting of ICS phones.(Sony Xperia only)
Please see attached file: Xperia-2011-ICS-ROOT-emu-Linux.zip
Note: You need flashtool for linux. Procedure remains the same as for windows.
Original script thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
Rooting procedure: http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/41119?start=0&tstart=0
Please update Superuser app as well as SU binary to the latest version after rooting is done successfully.
Update: Updated as per DooMLoRD's v4.0 script with zergRush binary of 21 Nov 2011 and with makespace which deletes Google Maps if there is not enough space.(< 6MB).
Hello
I am completely new to Android but not at all new to Linux.
I used paxchristos script (ran commands manually though) to root my Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman. (WT19i / Android 2.3.4 / Build 4.0.2.A.0.58)
Source threads used:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319653
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18615502
In an attached file, I fixed/modified/added few things in paxchristos script. Here is the detail:
1) Fixed error in symlinking su. (source/destination were same)
2) Don't delete (and recreate) /data/local/tmp/ directory unnecessarily, just delete its contents.
3) Create /data/local/tmp if it does not exist.
4) Uses dd instead of cp (because DooMLoRD's script does, dont know why!). Update: as per anantshri, dd is used because cp has been known to give errors.
5) If your system already has 'adb' then it uses system 'adb' instead of one in zip-archive.
6) Updated zip archive to contain the latest files from DooMLoRD's archive (paxchristos archive seemed old)
Please try/verify and let me know if I missed something.
Thanks.
Very nice to know that fellow *nixers are on xda.
Thanks, I am still getting used to this forum.
Have already found answers to many of my questions regarding Android.
One thing that shocked me is Android uses Java and not C. I would have preferred C anyday.
ohk so few things
1) yes java is used mainly in Android, However look at NDK if you are a C fan.
2) dd command is used in scripts to avoid cp related issues. coz last i remember we encountered multiple errors based on scenarios where cp used to fail but dd used to work. so dd is defacto there.
@doomLord, Correct me if i am wrong.
Ah that clears dd confusion. Till now I was wondering why he chose dd? I thought may be because dd was faster for internal memory to internal memory transfer.
Since DooMLoRD is good programmer I knew there has to be a reason. And that is why I changed paxchristos script to use dd.
Updated to match with DooMLoRD's v4 script. See update on first post for details.
Just used this script on my Galaxy S 2 Skyrocket. Worked great!
Have used the script with Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini E10a Latin America.
Script runned, ADB found the device, device has rebooted correctly but... no root after reboot. Checked with Root Checker from Market.
Anyway, great script! Should work for some models.
On my phone (Milestone 2 with Gingerbread 2.3.6) the root process worked, but part of the space check it returns 90% of free space, the software does not correctly identify and delete my google maps. The following screen to evaluate and correct the bug. And congratulations for the initiative, I'd have to do it by hand when I found your script ready.

(2) install Busybox (1.18.4)
(3) install SU files (binary: 3.0.3 and apk: 3.0.6)
(4) some checks for free space, tmp directory
(will remove Google Maps if required)
[*] Before u begin:
(1) make sure u have installed adb drivers for ur device
(2) enable 'USB DEBUGGING'
from (Menu\Settings\Applications\Development)
(3) enable 'UNKNOWN SOURCES'
from (Menu\Settings\Applications)
(4) [OPTIONAL] increase screen timeout to 10 minutes
(5) connect USB cable to PHONE and then connect to PC
(6) skip 'PC Companion Software' prompt on device

Umm.... Freespace checking script was not developed by me. I have copied it directly from DooMLoRD script AS IS (had not tested it either). I think we dont need it anyway. It will be very rare that person rooting wud have run out of space. Person can re-install Google Maps (so no big harm done by bug)
But when I get the time I will check the DooMLoRD's script if there exist a bug.
Please click on THANKS if u liked my script
Your script has saved me a lot of work, because I'm tired of borrowing the notebook of my wife for flashing my phone and was looking for solutions for linux, missing root can do, I do not want to use SuperOneclick (did not want to install it just for Mono ) and go on to adapt the script DoomLord for Linux, which you did very well done. Now I can do everything on my computer with linux, what about the bug, I realized that the program was part of the original script, but I made a warning to those who wish, like me, deactivate the check room not to lose Google Maps (or have to reinstall the Market).
adb drivers in linux ?
Hy ! Can I use this script to root my Galaxy Note ? And can you say me how to install adb drivers in linux, plz ?
Just try it.
ADB is already there with script.
If you have fedora then u can install adb by running:
yum install android-tools
OK
Thank you, i will try. I didn't realize that "ADP" is the same as "ADP drivers".
well in linux there is nothing like drivers u can say
very few hardware require driver.
and when android itself is born from linux, linux shud already have support for it
Everything went well, thank you very much! We should just specify the need to execute the file "runme-linux" as root (with "sudo") ;-).
I would not to abuse, but would it be possible to have the same thing for unroot, please ?
Easy unroot for linux
Hy,
I used Amish translation to do the same for the DooMLoRD's Unrooting Script. I succesfully tried it with my phone, but REMEMBER YOU ARE DOING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK (I suppose you know this song ;-))
DooMLoRD's instructions :
so here is the unrooting script to be USED ONLY AND ONLY IF U HAVE USED MY FILES (Easy Rooting Toolkit) FOR ROOTING
[ WARNING ]
if u have used any other way/solution for rooting then PLEASE DO NOT RUN THIS... you MIGHT END UP with damaged system...
(thats cause some ppl create symlinks for busybox in /system/bin/ which wipes out stock symlinks to /system/bin/toolbox and breaks/damages system)
More informations here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18615502 and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
I havent unrooted but I think unrooting wud be nothing but removing busybox symlinks (and busybox itself) and removing su binary and superuser.apk.
btw there is no need to run "runme-linux" as super user.
it works as normal user (recommended)

If I run the script without sudo, the script block just after "* daemon started successfully *"
You can see below the console log :
