BurritoRoot3 stuck at Please run... even after done rooting - Kindle Fire General

So I rooted my kindle fire and installed everything that I wanted to. However, for some reason my BurritoRoot3 is stuck at the screen telling me to run adb shell /data/local/tmp/BurritoRoot3.bin --root even though I've already done it and it worked. I would like to make BurritoRoot3 get to the screen that allows me to have the unroot button. Thanks.

i would think you missed the chmod command
here the sequence:
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp
adb install BurritoRoot3.apk
<go open the app now>
adb shell /data/local/tmp/BurritoRoot3.bin --root
adb shell /data/local/tmp/BurritoRoot3.bin --install

I did that sequence and I tried it again and BurritoRoot is still stuck on "please run /data/local/tmp BurritoRoot3.bin --root through adb to start the process".
I've already rooted and installed android market and root explorer. Just want to be able to get to the unroot toggle screen on BurritoRoot so that I can get amazonprime privileges back.

seems to happen on some devices
would forget about it and use ota rootkeeper from the market to toggle root

BR3 has that screen, and the bootloader flash screen, that is it.
It doesn't have an unroot button.
Flash the stock update.bin if you want to be unrooted.

I have this problem too.
And I ran --root and --install prompts, and even the flash button that then says Thank You.
But is it done? Because when I boot it up, I get the same prompt to run the prompt.
I really want to install Jelly Bean on this device.

[Q] Semi-Bricked installing Clockworkmod (Not 100% noobish, I swear!)

Okay, so I'm coming from a Vibrant and trying to get Mobile AP going on a friend's Epic. Should be no problem, right?
First: His phone was completely 100% Stock (DI18)
Guess not. So I manually rooted using the following:
Code:
adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb push root.sh /data/local/root.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/root.sh
adb shell /data/local/root.sh
adb shell mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
adb shell rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
adb push joeykrim-root.sh /system/bin/joeykrim-root.sh
adb push jk-su /system/bin/jk-su
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
adb push playlogo-orig /system/bin/playlogo-orig
adb push playlogo /system/bin/playlogo
adb push busybox /system/bin/busybox
adb push resolv.conf /system/bin/resolv.conf
adb push remount /system/bin/remount
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/joeykrim-root.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/playlogo
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/busybox
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/remount
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/playlogo-orig
adb shell /system/bin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin
adb reboot
Which is the same as the one click root except I killed the DI18 recovery.sh thing.
Now everything looks pretty good, but I didn't test root (guessing this is my big ****up) and so I went on to install ROM Manager and then flash ClockworkRecovery for the Epic from ROM Manager and it seems to succeed. Asks for Superuser, I hit okay when the Superuser box pops up, and yay, I'm in the home stretch, right?
NOPE.
So I reboot to recovery and it goes like it's loading Clockwork, but then it says that it failed signature check. Uh oh. Well, whatever, reboot and try again later. Or not - now it won't do anything except reboot into recovery and it says "manual mode" at the bottom. It lets me scroll up and down, but not select anything - yes, I tried every single button on the phone.
On to Odin, then! So I download the tar (DG27) and pit (512 first, then 513, later), but it hangs at param.lfs every time, and now it gives the good old phone--!--pc bit. Can get back to download though.
Suggestions, please, anyone?

Did you try flashing the PIT by itself? If not, try it. Sometimes that will get you back up and running.
Also, the DI18 tar is available now.
http://rapidshare.com/files/423321746/SPH-D700-DI18-8Gb-REL.tar.md5
Yep, tried pit by itself, and I just downloaded DI18 .pit, still nothing. He gave up and is on his way to get a replacement.
But I saw (somewhere...so many threads in such a short time period....) that I think someone executed something to do with rageagainstthecage while doing the manual root - that wasn't in the one click root I downloaded from the sticky in the development section. Could that have anything to do with it? I wouldn't think so, but I'm really quite curious how this could fail so hardcore - this is the first andriod device I've not been able to recover from (modded to hell and back a G1, Magic, Droid, and a Vibrant...)
EDIT: wait, pit...no, didn't do the pit by itself - I'm a dumbass, I tried tar by itself. Guess that's what I get for being in a rush
first off, you dont need the PIT at all.
secondly, the reason it was hanging was because you didnt hook the phone up right.
for the best results, you need to do it like this, IN THIS ORDER:
have odin open on your desktop screen
plug in phone
before the phone starts charging, BOOT INTO DOWNLOAD MODE
Odin will instantly pick up the phones connection, and you can start from there. I'm not sure why THIS setup works when doing it in another order is technically the same thing... but hey, you can thank Samsung for that.
happy flashing!

The PIT file is nice to have around in case you bork your phone from a bad flash or if you're flashing a kernel or radio independently from a ROM. But if you're just flashing a stock system tar, then you are correct in saying it's not needed.
Hmm...I always opened Odin, had the phone in download, then plugged it in. It recognized it fine, and that's how I flashed my Vibrant. Oh well, that's not the real oddity here. I'm more concerned about why it was stuck in stock recovery mode and you couldn't select anything (but could scroll?!). Why would this happen, and why did clockwork recovery fail the signature check on first install? I still want to get this working, but I don't think he's going to put his (now functional replacement) up for tinkering after that scare, but I'll be getting one relatively shortly.
I got stuck in the same place - used the one-click root method and had Superuser and Titanium and Rom Manger said they had root. So I flashed the clockwork recovery mod and that seemed to work fine, but when I went to backup my current ROM, I got stuck exactly in the same place with the stock recovery "manual mode" where I could scroll but not select anything.
I did however run Odin and flashed it back and worked perfect the first time I tried, so not sure why it isn't working in your case.
Coming from the EVO I didn't know there was an issue but I read that you can't use Clockwork Mod on the stock kernel? I don't know but since this is my wife's phone and I've bricked it once I'll just play with my EVO for now
Okay, so it's reproducible. That's a start. I'm assuming you downloaded Clockworkmod through ROM Manager as well?
When you reflashed, what OS/bit operating system was it? I did it from Windows 7/64-bit. Wondering if maybe the drivers have something to do with it... (oh samsung, you write such awful software but your hardware is oh-so-tasty....)
yes - I downloaded clockwork mod from Rom Manager and it had a choice for the Epic so I thought all was good.
I usually use my Macbook Pro which works fine with my Evo but wouldn't work with the Epic when I rooted so I used my Windows 7/64 bit machine for both the root and then the Odin recovery. I installed the 64bit drivers found somewhere here initially so those are what were installed when I ran Odin. I did use the DI07 tar for some reason (it was this past weekend and I'm not sure DI18 was posted here yet or I just grabbed the wrong one), so maybe try that one if you haven't yet.
Okay, so long story short, don't use ROM Manager for the Epic. Should've done it manually like I usually do instead of taking the lazy way out. Oh well, live and learn, no permanent damage done and I hope this will prove helpful to others.

ROM Manager works fine if you have a compatible kernel installed first. Most of the newer custom kernels have the compatibility built in.
Right, but the compatibility isn't there in the stock kernel, hence the issue. I don't remember if there's any kind of PSA about this in the dev/root/clockwork threads, perhaps there should be. If there is, forgive me, for it's late and my attention is divided...

I went through the same thing. Stuck in Clockwork recovery. Here is the way I got out. First I flashed the mixup kernel from clockwork. Then I backed up my ROM. THEN I simply restored the ROM and presto...back in the OS. Once I had everything up and smooth THEN...I finally added the MobileAP update zip via the file fixed by Firon.
Not stuck at clockwork, though. Stuck in the stock recovery. Something it just seems you have to odin out of because you can't flash anything.

[Guide] How to recover your semi-brick

YES YOU NEED TO READ THIS WHOLE POST, PROB MORE THEN ONCE TO MAKE SURE YOU GOT IT. YES I KNOW HOW LONG IT IS, I TYPED IT!
the reason i call it a semi-brick is because a true brick can bot be recovered with out opening the case.
first go here and read this for info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838484
now since your here im going to assume that its too late.
*things you will need.
copy of cwm recovery. get it here (the manual install link): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9145724&postcount=28
adb installed and working.
a known good rom, or nandroid backup. here is one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836042 (use odex one)
a wpthis.ko for YOUR specfic kernel (run (adb shell cat /proc/version) that will tell you what kernel you have)
*first thing we need to know is, are you s-off or s-on now?
if your s-off just boot into clockwork mod recovery, wipe the phone and flash a known good rom and be done with it. if you dont have cwm recovery installed. boot into fastboot (vol down+power) you must have the sdk/adb installed and working, and type fastboot flash recovery LocationOfRecovery.img (where LocationOfRecovery.img= where you have the recovery, ie c:\android\recovery.img). once thats installed follow instructions above.
*if you are s-on:
will the phone boot into android? if so your not bad off.
if you want to unroot to return the phone, follow the unroot thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835971
if you dont want to unroot then you have a couple of different options. if you have cwm recovery still installed, just follow instructions above and flash a known good rom. ive been told that boot.img (kernel) wont flash if you are s-on. the way to fix this (temporarily) is boot into recovery, but before you flash run these commands:
(put wpthis.ko in sdk folder)
adb remount
adb push wpthis.ko /data/local/wpthis.ko (specific for your kernel)
adb shell
# insmod /data/local/wpthis.ko (should get same function not implemented error as when u rooted first time)
then proceed to flash the rom. once booted into android skip down to, "now to get back to s-off"
*if you have stock or eng-recovery installed.
will the phone attempt to boot android at all? where is it stuck at?
a good min after it starts to try to boot, type these commands:
adb remount
adb shell
if you can get in shell then theres still hope. back out shell for a second and start here:
put the cwm recovery.img and wpthis.ko in your sdk folder
adb remount
adb push wpthis.ko /data/local/wpthis.ko (specific for your kernel)
adb push recovery.img /data/local/recovery.img
adb shell
# insmod /data/local/wpthis.ko (should get same function not implemented error as when u rooted first time)
# dd if=/data/local/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 (now wait a min or 2 to give it time to finish)
#sync (give it another min or to just to be safe)
#reboot recovery
at this point you should be in cwm recovery. follow instructions above for flashing with s-on.
*if you cannot get into shell while booting, but have eng-recovery installed, there might be some options.(however this is all theory)
boot into recovery-
if you are on linux using adb, you can try taking sh from /system/bin folder of any custom rom, chmod 0755 it, then push it to /system/bin and adb shell might work.
windows-
boot into recovery.
a system.img compatible with your installed kernel pushed may work. put the system.img into the sdk folder.
adb push system.img /data/block/mmcblk0p25
then reboot and see where you are. if that dont work, grab the modified miscnew.img here: http://www.4shared.com/file/pUPfrGi-/mmcblk0p17.html
rename it misc.img put it in sdk folder and
adb push misc.img /dev/block/mmcblk0p17
then reboot into bootloader with PC10IMG.zip on root of sdcard and it should run though. if it does your fully stock and get to start all over again.
*if you cannot get into shell, and you have stock recovery, im sorry your pretty screwed. as of right now the only thing thats gonna bring it back is a full img/update signed from htc thats equal to or higher then the version currently on the phone. (well and jtag of course)
*well now you've done one of the steps above. your booted into android, you have perm root, and cwm recovery installed, just still s-on. dont worry your almost there!
first take that wpthis.ko for you kernel and push it, and the eng hboot.
adb push wpthis.ko /data/local/
adb push hboot-eng.img /data/local
then from adb shell, or terminal root prompt:
# insmod /data/local/wpthis.ko (again you should get the function not implemented error)
NOW REMEMBER THIS NEXT STEP COULD MEAN DEATH FOR YOU G2 IF TYPED WRONG, AND AFTER ALL THIS HARD WORK!
# dd if=/data/local/hboot-eng.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
wait a few mins to be sure its done.
# sync
wait a few more just cause.
reboot, you should now be s-off, cwm recovery installed, and free to do whatever you want. just dont go screwing it up again
* as new methods are discovered, or ones here are proven wrong, i will update as necessary. as of the writing post, 2 devices that i know of have been saved!
good luck!

Rooted 6.2.2?? TWRP help

Kindle looks and acts rooted but i can't install TWRP with KFU.
When it ask the kindle to reboot in fastboot the kindle stays idel in usb mode.
EDIt got it rooted by installing android phone drivers then i rolled them back now it reads as a usb composite device or something, doesn't say kindle with the flag like it did at first.
What commands did you use?
what commands??? i used 5 on KFU it did its thing so far then it said waiting for device after it told the kindle to reboot in fastboot.
I just got this today with stock 6.2.2 and got it rooted finally but i want recovery and other roms >.> THe kindle just doesn't reboot when its told by KFU during TWRP installation.
I think KFU isn't working for 6.2.2 at the moment.
Are you comfortable with running commands from the command prompt? If yes, do you have ADB running properly?
if i have a set of instructions I can use the command line. but not intuitivelly, i got this thing rooted even after installing the drivers gfailed so i did pretty good so far
,
Disregard this post. See my next post.
I has to be root first right, cause i was mistaken and it didn't take. when i run the command line to enable root it gets this message
adbd cannot run as root is in production build.
i even tried the instruction on this link by they are very vague for 6.2.2 and it doesn't tell you were to place files which i assume got to C;\kindleADBhttp://rootzwiki.com/topic/13027-universal-all-firmware-one-click-root-including-262/
Disregard my last post. Do the following.
Download BurritoRoot2.bin from this thread and TWRP from here. Place BurritoRoot2.bin and the TWRP image in the same folder as adb.exe and fastboot.exe (you can use the ones from KFU).
Now run the following...
Code:
adb push BurritoRoot2.bin /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/BurritoRoot2.bin
adb shell /data/local/tmp/BurritoRoot2.bin
adb root
adb shell idme bootmode 4002
adb reboot
You were given root access for the adb shell with BurritoRoot2 and that allowed you to change the bootmode. The last command will rebooted the KF into fastboot mode.
When you see a solid "Kindle Fire" logo, you can continue with the following commands...
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x1949 boot twrp-blaze-2.0.0RC0.img
The device will reboot and install FFF and TWRP.
I.will be attempting this a lil bit later today have Tiber optics installed and they are due any min.
Thankyou for your help.
Do you guys know why when I command Adb root it tells me its in.production build? This confused me.last night and I am expecting to ru. Into it mater when I attempt to do this root and twrp fix
It's because it isn't rooted. I don't think KFU has implemented BurritoRoot2 yet.
I tried downloading the 6.2.2 update and manually update but when it reboots TWRP 2 says Can't mount /mnt/sdcard/kindleupdates/update-kindle-6.2.2_D01E_3205220.bin
then TWRP gets stuck in a loop only loading into TWRP until I do "idme bootmode 4000"
Anyway, since it seems pretty safe at this point to update to 6.2.2 I want to get it over with now, but am having trouble, is the problem TWRP 2.0?
if you use the original amazon update you will loose fff, twrp and root
take a look at this update method:

Hello,
I am stuck and it is really anoying. I am trying to flash CM on my LG L5 (e610)

for adb to work 'adb devices' it shows up with my device. but when i enter 'adb shell' hit enter
and after that typ 'su' it does nothing.. nothing pops up on my phone.. i have USB debuging enabled and
it is in charge mode. What is it i do wrong?
-Fireworkfan
EDIT: I can use other commands, rebooting my phone with ADB works perfect.. what am i doing wrong with adb shell thing.. is there something i need to instal first? i only placed the .bin file in the directory of my phone.. Also i have 'SuperSU' shouldnt 'su' be something els? i am so confused
after you write adb shell, if you have SuperUser or SuperSU on your phone, unlock your phone and accept root for adb comands and after you can go with su and do what you want

That is the whole problem, I do not get a grant or decline messages from my SuperSU... I have checked it over a 100 times, on the mainscreen or even with the app itself open. I do however get the Grant or Decline message when I use apps like pimpmyrom on my phone itself.. I have tried it on a different computer to now, again without succes.. anyone an idea? There would be someone that would like to help me over a chat with this problem?

LG G2 (Verizon) - Recovery (CWM), no download, bootloop stuck **FIXED**

I will preface this with stating that this is not my phone. A friend had rooted his LG G2 and installed CWM. After he accepted the OTA, the phone was essentially rendered useless. After this process, the phone will be reverted back to 100% STOCK. It took a while to compile all of this information, and I give all credit to respective owners, but this process I pieced together from multiple threads and was able to make this work.
Symptoms-
Not booting (Hanging at LG screen)
Able to access CWM recovery
Unable to Mount USB
Unable to access Download Mode
#####1#####
Uninstall all previous LG Drivers installed (Add/Remove Programs)
#####2#####
Install PDAnet to get the drivers required installed.
#####3#####
Once PDAnet is installed, ADB should recognize the device when it is in 'Recovery' mode.
(ADB Devices should give the result of: ###DEVICEID### Recovery)
#####4#####
Download aboot.img from: http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/D802/Stock_Firmware/10b_EUR_16G_partitions
(The file will need to be renamed to aboot.img)
#####5#####
Download: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760973106
#####6#####
Extract the files we need:
g2_security
loki_patch
loki_flash
recovery.img
#####7#####
Get into a command prompt and run the following:
adb push g2_security /sdcard/
adb root
adb push loki_patch /data/local/tmp
adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp
adb push recovery.img /data/local/tmp
adb shell "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=/data/local/tmp/aboot.img"
adb shell "chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/aboot.img"
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/loki_patch"
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/loki_flash"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/loki_patch recovery /data/local/tmp/aboot.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.lok"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/loki_flash recovery /data/local/tmp/recovery.lok"
adb shell "rm /sdcard/g2_security"
adb shell "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota of=/sdcard/fota-backup.img"
adb shell "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota"
adb shell sync
adb reboot recovery
Once the above is done, the phone should boot into TWRP. I shut the phone off at this point and held "Volume Up" + "Power" and Download mode now worked!
#####8#####
Uninstalled PDAnet and then followed the instructions on the following page (including installing the drivers)
#####9#####--At this point the following thread finished reverting the phone to stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960
My only suggestion is that you RUN THE MD5 HASH to ensure the large file downloads correctly. After this was done, the phone was successfully reverted back to stock.

Hi, your last step, a Verizon link for restoring back to stock.. I have international D802.. can I use some other rom(omni rom) instead of your last step...

I will preface this with stating that this is not my phone. A friend had rooted his LG G2 and installed CWM. After he accepted the OTA, the phone was essentially rendered useless. After this process, the phone will be reverted back to 100% STOCK. It took a while to compile all of this information, and I give all credit to respective owners, but this process I pieced together from multiple threads and was able to make this work.
Symptoms-
Not booting (Hanging at LG screen)
Able to access CWM recovery
Unable to Mount USB
Unable to access Download Mode
#####1#####
Uninstall all previous LG Drivers installed (Add/Remove Programs)
#####2#####
Install PDAnet to get the drivers required installed.
#####3#####
Once PDAnet is installed, ADB should recognize the device when it is in 'Recovery' mode.
(ADB Devices should give the result of: ###DEVICEID### Recovery)
#####4#####
Download aboot.img from: http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/D802/Stock_Firmware/10b_EUR_16G_partitions
(The file will need to be renamed to aboot.img)
#####5#####
Download: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760973106
#####6#####
Extract the files we need:
g2_security
loki_patch
loki_flash
recovery.img
#####7#####
Get into a command prompt and run the following:
adb push g2_security /sdcard/
adb root
adb push loki_patch /data/local/tmp
adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp
adb push recovery.img /data/local/tmp
adb shell "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=/data/local/tmp/aboot.img"
adb shell "chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/aboot.img"
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/loki_patch"
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/loki_flash"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/loki_patch recovery /data/local/tmp/aboot.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.lok"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/loki_flash recovery /data/local/tmp/recovery.lok"
adb shell "rm /sdcard/g2_security"
adb shell "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota of=/sdcard/fota-backup.img"
adb shell "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota"
adb shell sync
adb reboot recovery
Once the above is done, the phone should boot into TWRP. I shut the phone off at this point and held "Volume Up" + "Power" and Download mode now worked!
#####8#####
Uninstalled PDAnet and then followed the instructions on the following page (including installing the drivers)
#####9#####--At this point the following thread finished reverting the phone to stock.

My only suggestion is that you RUN THE MD5 HASH to ensure the large file downloads correctly. After this was done, the phone was successfully reverted back to stock.
If you found this help, please donate and buy me a beer!

My ADB keeps saying that my phone is unauthorized ;( I can only access .zip. Anyone else have this issue? Have tried multiple drivers, Sideload is the only thing that works.

I can't because I cannot turn on USB Debugging, I am stuck in the Recovery. Details of my situation are in this thread I posted. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2726985

Same issue here. In the command prompt, anything I do returns the unauthorized device error.
EDIT- I'm going to try and sideload a custom ROM, and then flash the stock ROM after setting USB debugging to see if that helps at all. I'll let you know

Please refer to the initial post. This will only work if you can access the recovery. If you cannot access recovery, this method isn't going to work. Sorry!

Did you not see what I wrote? Recovery was the only thing I could access. This method didn't work because the RSA Token wasn't authenticated on my computer any longer. My phone was bricked. I now have a new one. Lesson learned. Make sure you have USB debugging on with an RSA token on your computer at all times.
Did you end up wiping the internal SD with the process? I am in a similar situation except I don't have a friend like you to help me out haha.

I factory wiped/reset my phone is CWM which got my phone to be recognized as in recovery.
I can't get past the adb shell commands to work. it keeps saying 'dd: can't open '/data/local/tmp/aboot.img' : Not a directory
I tried with the double quotations and without to see if the command would work thinking I was messing up the syntax.
perfect just saved my a$$. ota took for the 24a update. found this and i am back where i was.awesomes
