i stucked on "waiting 4 device" with ADB... win7 x64... :/

mod: solved, start phone in fastboot mode, start image uploading with fastboot.exe THEN connect phone to pc.

I have successfully managed to root the GT540 , and seems superuser does not need to install apps that require root access (maybe this is security bug of this method , but does not need to modify the original rom like russian guys did). I only tried vnc server which works fine .
I will do a guide how to root the phone and create a zip which contains the neccesseary files (adb,rageagainstthecage, busybox,su).


adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage
adb push su /data/local/tmp/
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/
adb shell
$chmod 4755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage
$chmod 4755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
$ cd /data/local/tmp
$ ./rageagainstthecage
adb shell
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 / (maybe this not neccesseary)
# cd /data/local/tmp
# ./busybox cp su /system/bin
# ./busybox cp busybox /system/bin
# cd /system/bin
#chmod 4755 su
#chmod 4755 busybox
#su
#id
the id should be 0 and gid should be 0
#busybox --install /system/bin
#cd /system/xbin
#ln -s /system/bin/su su
#cd /system/bin
#cat sh > su
#reboot
after the phone reboot
adb shell
$su
#
Now you should be able to install any app that require root.

I left out to push the Superuser.apk to /system/app beacuse the app2sd script or the vnc server install does not opened it but they works .

why ?

[joestone]

OK !

I have made a modified version according to the suggestions from forum members . The busybox left out , and now it is using the superuser app .You need the uploaded zip file from the original post .

You should wait for this part until the phone fully up , because when you type su the superuser app should be come up on phone's screen and you need to allow it .

Thanks for the cooperation to everybody !

Do I just have to put my phone on debug mode then connect it on my pc then type the commands posted above on command prompt? What do I need aside from rootgt540v20b.zip?

Yes the debug mode must be on access the phone via adb .
The zip contains all you need , not needed to install the sdk.
It contains the adb , the superuser application and the su .

thanks.. will try this later..

Access is denied.

Any way to correct this? Using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

at the very beginning..

You should run the command prompt in administrator mode .Right click to it and selet run as administrator.
I do this process on win7 pro 32bit.

[bloodlust8]

Im already on this part:

C:\rootgt540v20b>adb shell
$ su
su (after this part it says Permission denied)
# id

done.. thanks a lot.. will test Titanium Backup..
----------------------------------------------------------


Titanium Backup works even the Chuck Norris Mode..

backing up messages works but restoring it does not, can somebody confirm this? I guess I have to mail the developer..

You got this message after reboot or when ? Try to restart the phone and start from the begining.

The phone should be work in normal mode.
The phone should be in usb debugging mode , storage mode must be off .
The debugging mode is in the settings, applications, development menu .
