Problem with rooting MyTouch 4G Phone ($ exploit error) - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have had my MyTouch 4G since January of 2011, and today I decided to finally root my phone (growing sick and tired of HTC sense and the tremendous bloatware lag with it). I still like the phone itself (perfect size), and so I was came across CM7, it looks like it is the most stable and popular rom for the MyTouch.
Of course, I myself, I am an IT professional, but have no idea on what the rooting process is, so I have been following the steps CM team has posted on rooting my android device (wiki(dot)cyanogenmod(dot)org/w/Install_CM_for_glacier). I was currently in the process of downgrading the android version, and came across an error. So according to this guide, it said if you come across an $, your exploit has failed, if # you have gained temporary root.
That being said, I have came across the $ sign, which I assume is the exploit. I don't know why I have come across this error, and so, I have posted all the notes from my command line:

I hope someone can help me out on this one... would be awesome if I can manage to root my phone and install the ROM all by today...
Thanks!

Bump bump bump bump bump
please i need help!!

UPDATE: I HAVE GONE PAST THIS ERROR.
Now, my current situation, I had followed the root guide that was stickied on this forums, and it looks like my "S=Off" is on the HBoot loader thing (when you press power + volume down). But, when I try to follow the steps of flashing an actual ROM (through clockworkmod) it says I am not rooted? Any idea on how to fix that?
Been working on this phone for over 15 hours... and will only go to sleep once I know I will have my ROM installed.

How can clockworkmod tell you your not rooted? Have you already flashed a recovery?
Also try this to re-root
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343114
Then install the 4ext app and let it install the recovery.

Actually, I have no idea why is that O.O
But I will follow those steps on that link you send me, and post an update if it all works out!!
Thanks a lot!

So, after trying out that link that was posted earlier, it looks like I have found my real problem now.
My S=off looks like is permanent. But my root is not (I dunno why, no flash or anything yet)
So when I try to connect my phone to my PC (USB Debug Mode on, USB Tethering) it doesn't connect anymore, nor show up on ADB. And in fact my PDAnet driver does not detect it either!
Any idea on what can be the problem?

Update:
I am done!! I installed cm10!! It works
omg, this is awesome!!
sorry for making this thread, i managed to re-root it and now it all worked out.
I love you xda developers, i apologize for making a thread, i managed to research all my information and it worked after 25+ hours of working on my phone.

haha, that is the older version right?
Honestly, it was not hard at all, the fact is that the information provided, is all cluttered around the interwebz (requireing actual hours of researching) and to find that perfect stable rom is another animal... haha.
I don't feel like buying another smartphone, I know that the mytouch 4g is still capable of competing with smartphones in the market (of course, it has no fancy camera or gimmicks like the S4) but it works!

G2 2.3.4 OTA 1-Click temp-root

Thanks for the move orb3000
EDIT:
Apparently I can't post links either... what gives??? Going to have to do this the ghetto way I guess..
Anyway, I made a nice little .bat to temp-root the 2.3.4 OTA for the T-Mobile G2 (HTC Vision) for all you lazy people out there, or the people who are just tired of playing with the cmd (like myself).
It's on media fire... www(dot)mediafire(dot)com/?xwurdlpcw61oxiz
Just unzip and run "rootg2.bat"
It uses fre3vo, as it is the only method that currently works. If this for some reason does NOT work for you, edit rootg2.bat and change the address set to one of the following after a reboot
FAA90000 -end FFFFFFFF
10000000 -end 1FFFFFFF
20000000 -end 2FFFFFFF
30000000 -end 3FFFFFFF
F0000000 -end FFFFFFFF
E0000000 -end EFFFFFFF
Find one that works?? Great! Now you have a bat juuuuuust for you.

It says in the title this is a temporary root, not permanent. Check the [REF] Sticky is either General or Development for guides that will help you through the proces. DO NOT attempt root until you are sure you know what you are doing. READ and SEARCH!
Does anyone know of a way to temp-root on-device, without having to hook up to a PC?
After the message "daemon started successfully" the adb just hangs at that line, no crash, just doesn't advance any further. I can't input any commands either. I waited for over an hour to see if it would proceed, but not as such. Any ideas?

Did this work for anyone?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I'm having issues getting this to work. I have tried the various addresses with no solid confirmation of whether it worked or not, aside from running the app "Root Check" or attempting to use an app that requires root, and finding that the phone is indeed, not rooted.
The results vary however at best, the process appears to have gone through smoothly. Daemon was successful, it successfully locates the region, and finally successfully dismounts and and remounts, which leaves us at the stage where it says press any key to continue.
Are there additional steps? What conditions must be met in order for this to work other than turning on debugging mode? Must the usb cord remain connected? Does the temp root end once the cord is unplugged? The guide above didn't exactly give any clear cut step-by-step directions and so I am feeling as if I'm not doing something because the guide doesn't mention it.
Can someone who has successfully temp-rooted their G2 v2.3.4 post a list of steps needed from start to finish? Example:
1) Enable USB debugging on phone.
2) Plug phone into computer via USB cord.
3) Unzip g2root.zip into a folder of your choice.
4) Run g2root.bat.
5) If successful, you will see (fill in the blank)
6) If successful, go to step 7, if unsuccessful, reboot computer/phone and retry step 1
Something like the above direct would be extremely useful to a few of us. Thanks!

verify you have root:

./adb -d shell id
output:
Code:
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
Or you could verify it worked by executing 'adb shell' and if you have a # prompt rather than $, it worked.
This will stick until you reboot. Unplugging the cable will not affect it (unless you're currently running the commands)
This is not exactly a true temp-root, as it just gives adb root access, but you should be able to remount /system as rw and push su and SuperUser.apk to the right places to get a proper temp-root.

could you please describe how to do that? where do i get these packages from?
Getting closer but still not quite there. The reason why I was not having confirmations before was because I was running the rootg2.bat file directly rather than doing it through the cmd prompt, aka Start --> Run --> [type cmd]. After having ran the .bat file via the cmd prompt, I was able to apply, and confirm via the steps that were mentioned.
Problem is, I'm still not exactly truly temp-rooted, as none of my apps that require root or are designed to check root, show me as rooted. Is this because superuser and/or busybox are not operating as if they are rooted due to something I'm not aware of?
I already have the latest Superuser/Elite and BusyBox installed onto my phone via the Market. Do I have to push them into a specific folder that simply installing them from market wont do automatically?
Any thoughts?
After I get this nailed down, I will write a comprehensive explaination for others to do this as well.
Here is a true temp-root which works with fre3vo.
Just read the readme file.

any update on this one?
i hope this makes rooting easier...

I see this method listed for the Sensation, has it been proven to work for G2, stock OTA 2.3.4?
Wondering the same.
If you are running 2.3.x, and use fre3vo, then run that zip I posted, you will have proper temp-root.
It will stick until a reboot, but then you can just redo everything.
Yes it's proven to work.

[Q] Help! Mytouch 4g 2.3.4 Gingerbread

Let me first say sorry if I am posting where I should not. I'm a noob and completely frustrated. I successfully rooted and unrooted a MT4g on 2.2.1 which I shipped back to Tmobile for a replacement. I now have a new shiny MT4g on 2.3.4. I originally mistakenly tried to root using visionary. I was then stuck on splash screen. I found the 2.3.4 PD15IMG that I booted from SDcard from bootloader. I then ran the downgrade successfully or at least I believe successfully. I am again now stuck on the splash screen and really need a hand. When I run the 2.2.1 stock it changes the hboot to what ever it should 0.86.0000 or something like that but the rom never boots. I can intermittently get into the 2.3.4 rom after flashing and hboot changes to 0.89.0005 but the moment the phone is turned off BAM splash screen again. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ok so are you saying you ran visionary before downgrading to the PD15IMG(2.2.1)?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Yes. I didn't realize that the new MT4G that Tmobile shipped was on 2.3.4 so I just went in and followed the GFree Root process using visionary so that I could downgrade.
Currently:
Glacier PVT Ship S-Off
Hboot - 0.89.005 - this changes when i flash the 2.2.1 or the 2.3.4 PD15IMG
microp-0429
Radio -26.11.04.03_m
emmc -boot
every now and again when I flash the 2.3.4 PD15IMG I can get the phone booted, but as soon as it powers down splash screen. additionally, it now gets the green circle when going into recovery for 30 seconds or so and then the red triangle. further feedback is greatly appreciated.

You cannot root 2.3.4. You need to downgrade to 2.2.1. Please see my noob thread in my signature. It has all of the information you need, on that and other topics you might want to check prior to rooting your phone.
Understood. The issue I am having is that I tried to root using visionary gfree with 2.3.4 and have been having issues since. I am now trying to determine if my phn is done. I brought it back to life briefly after flashing the 2.3.4 gingerbread which was stock on the new phn, I then followed the down grade process and flashed back to 2.2.1 which booted up fine. The phone then powered down and now I can't get passed the splash screen. I've tried flashing back to 2.3.4 and to 2.2.1 and the only thing that happens is the hboot number changes, but the rom never boots.

You have good matching MD5SUMs?
Dunno, can you further explain MD5SUMs?
He is saying you probably had bad download and I know you can't even check because you can't pass the the splach screen so what I would do is download the PD15IMG for 2.3.4 (again) and it should erase anything you have done and try again that way.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Yeah, try redownloading. Your connection was probably interrupted during the download.

Was your replacement s=off when you received it or did you manage to get it s=off with gfree process?
To answer your question about md5sum. It is the alpha numeric code you get after hashing the file. It's purpose is to make sure the received download file matches the original.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
I managed to get S-Off using the visionary / gfree method on the 2.3.4 gingerbread. The phone just got all flaky after that. I got access, downgraded, flashed rom, and it just keep getting stuck on the splash. Appreciate all the help. Tmobile rocks. They sent me another, no questions asked. I got the new one up and running after a downgrade (1st). I missed the downgrade part last time round. Thanks again.

Cant perm root Mytouch 4G please help before you move my thread

I have spent hours on xda, downloading gfree, trying to downgrade, trying taco root. I even unlocked bootloader at htc dev and cannot get my phone perm rooted
I have 2.3.4
software 2.32.531.1
i used the guide on how to downgrade to 2.2.1 for the visionary exploit
i keep getting permission denied
Potential exploit area found at address fbb80e00:200.
I am sorry for sounding like "noob" but i wasted the day trying to do this and have given up
Someone please help me, ill even donate a cup of coffee to whoever helps me fix this. No joke from 9 am to 530 pm, i have been going in circles, i downloaded the htc easy root tool all failed
the farthest i made it was getting temp root with taco root, but there are no clear cut instructions for what to do after, these guides are over a year old prior to my version of android
I'm not sure where your going wrong but the guides work fine. I used them to downgrade, perm root, and flash the engineering bootloader. Have you tried asking in the q and a section? I'm sure you will find a solution, if you ask in the proper place.

1st off.......THIS IS THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION! NOT Q&A! THATS WHAT THE Q&A IS FOR!
2nd....its because you unlocked via htcdev, which we have warned users multiple times if you did read the Q&A and General forums.
Htcdev method makes it harder to root/flash a ROM. We warned you. And then you complain and post in the wrong section!
Edit: also.....If you knew to put "DON'T MOVE THREAD", why did you post it here in the first place?

From what I gathered on your post, I am thinking you did a pastebin which is good. If you did, and it copied straight from you command prompt, than you are missing an (*) at the end of the adb chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/.
I recently used the guide to downgrade/root/flash e-bootloader/flash rom on 2 brand new 2.3.4 mytouch 4gs 2 weeks ago.
Also if you can manage to safe some time and headache reformat your SD card with the PD15IMG on to to fat32. If you dont you have a very likely chance that when you attempt to flash the PD15IMG to get a no image or bad image error in your bootloader when downgrading.
Slow down, step away from the computer, take a break and come back and START OVER. I spent 2 days getting that damned error on the pd15img.
edit:The quoted text is from the downgrading guide.
thank you for responding but that link you sent me shows up as a dead link, didnt go anywhere bro

This is the downgrading guide that I believe you have been using. Its the same I used. Like I said start over, and make sure every line in your cmd is typed exactly the way it is written in the thread.
If you feel you must, you can even copy and paste line by line into command prompt

This is for the desire/g2 it wont work. Use the link I posted.
. . .
knew someone was gonna take me the wrong way. deleted.
seeing from what other users have posted, it seems that you have "unlocked" your bootloader the Official HTC way. then there's not much anyone here can do for you, since that way wasn't recommended anyway.
but since your bootloader is now "unlocked", i don't see why you need to follow the downgrade procedure anymore. from looking at other device forums, i see that all you gotta do is get a custom recovery on there somehow, flash a rooted ROM, flash the boot image of that ROM (since you decided to do it the HTC way) and that's pretty much it...
Contacting a mod at once...

You unzipped the ZIP file misc_version in another subfolder, rather than locally.
When you're pushing misc_version, you're pushing subfolder instead of the file. This makes the executable file misc_version to be at /data/local/tmp/misc_version/misc_version and not /data/local/tmp/misc_version, as it should have been. The log is clear as a sun and shows it in a very visible way. Of course it means that the simple earlier step that says "extract the files here" wasn't executed properly, and you couldn't see this mistake of yours.
Of course, since the file isn't in the correct place, the command doesn't work.
Execute the commands as follows:
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version/*
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell
# cd /data/local/tmp/misc_version

The guide isn't wrong, you are. Probably hundreds or thousands of people used this guide for downgrading, here you come and the guide is suddenly wrong? And the same applies to the next failure - it's EXACTLY the same. Why is it so hard to make a single small step yourself?
Plus, you don't need flashgc. You can proceed with downgrading now.
thx jack_R1 you the man im perma root and s-off now i just have to see how to flash roms
Install custom recovery, boot into it, copy the ROM on SD card, wipe everything, flash.
These are the approximate steps. You can search for each step, or just search "mytouch 4g flash custom rom" in Youtube, you'll likely find a guide.

Help please! Want to root my HTC DesireZ 2.3.3

Hi
I am a noob and google translation is my friend but is not 100% reliable, so be patient.
I want to downgrade but when I do adb shell commands have errors and something you are wrong:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb push fre3vo /data/local/tmp
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *

I think the installation of the adb is correct but I can not find the problem.
You accidentally put 2 commands together
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version/data/local/tmp/fre3vo -debug -start FAA90000 -end FFFFFFFF
Should be:
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
/data/local/tmp/fre3vo -debug -start FAA90000 -end FFFFFFFF

upss
I will try, thank you
Now i got this:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb push fre3vo /data/local/tmp

C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell

Is normal?
I got # when i type the command adb shell
# in the shell means you have escalated acess (root/super user).
$ means normal access.
What method are you using?
It's been a long time since I went through it, but I believe all you've done is gained temp root access. You still need to S-OFF, hboot, and install a recovery which will then allow you to flash different ROMs.
I'm using this method: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Desire_Z:_Firmware_Downgrade_(Gingerbread)
I need downgrade my phone for root, I can not have the root with the gingerbread.
Use flashgc from this guide
The 'Gaining SuperCID with a Goldcard' part
-Nipqer
I'm in 2.2 now , thank you all, what tutorial you suggest?
I'd recommend either the XDA Wiki, or the Cyanogenmod Wiki
Both guides are identical for the method, but the XDA wiki has a lot of information, explaining what is happening, whereas the cm wiki is just commands.

I already root and the s-off, thank you for the help

can u explain me the way u tried?
Use this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912
For me, I had no root, I had the s-off and recovery install but not the root! Try and if you also have the s-off and recovery install but without the root, then I would try to help you.
