Guest thedonut Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 Build Number EPE54B Wanted to go to Froyo 2.2 Phone unlocked.Now tried to root phone. Followed instruction 1:Superboot for EPE54B with himem enabled - DOWNLOAD - MD5: f2ff5a15d5b3e61dc964dd421e23bf8f 2: - Download the Superboot zip file above and extract to a directory - Put your device in bootloader mode - Turn off the phone then press and hold the trackball to enter the bootloader - WINDOWS - double click 'install-superboot-windows.bat' 3: all good. Phone connected and said done done. 4: rebooted phone and went to about phone: all info the same Build Number EPE54B and when to titanium backup and said root access => failed what did I do wrong? Jumans Others have had this same problem (not a problem really... just no busybox). Click the "Problems?" button in Titanium Backup and allow it to install busybox. Good luck!

Guest fuzio1963 Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 I have the same "bug" too ;) i don't understand why :( Yup me too, but.............in order to install cust recovery, i need to have root. I was on un-rooted Froyo, installed superboot, then was able to install rec img 1.7.0.1. But other apps (autokiller) said that i have no root permissions. Weird!!! Am i rooted or not??
Guest Iakhou Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) I don't know if there is a link but my version of "permissions super-user" is v2.1. I have trying with usb debug : same result Edited June 25, 2010 by Iakhou
Guest ludo218 Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) Same problem here, resolved by doing this : adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system mkdir /system/xbin rm /system/xbin/su rm /system/bin/su cat /superboot/su>/system/xbin/su chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su cat /superboot/Superuser.apk>/system/app/Superuser.apk mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system (the second block is exactely the content of the script /superboot/superboot.sh). Then reboot :( edit : hmm this works with some apps (reoot explorer, nexus one torch...) but not with titanium backup : it asks me for root permission, I accept, see it in Superuser, but still complains that it doesn't have root edit2 : nevermind, I forgot to click on "Problems?" button in titanium backup to install busybox ;) Edited June 25, 2010 by ludo218

Guest ludo218 Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) Thanks a lot to share your astuce but i don't understand how do that ? I should modify superboot ? No, just download Superboot for FRF83, install it, then open a DOS command in the extracted Superboot directory on you computer (in Win 7 you can shift+right-click on the directory -> open command here), and type the commands. You may have to replace "adb shell" with "adb-windows.exe shell) Edited June 25, 2010 by ludo218
Guest King_Dani Posted June 25, 2010 Report Posted June 25, 2010 i have successfully upgraded but saddened to find out that this is still not the final Froyo version , since it lacks move to SD for apps. what a shame

Guest locx Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Been trying all options provided by people. My ubuntu machine says okay on install-superboot-linux.sh but no luck with superuser perms. using adb-linux is not helping either it is unable to locate the device while fastboot is able to do it. :lol: somebody help me out of this mess
Guest krikkrac Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I currently have Froyo 2.2 FRF83. I was previously rooted, and got Froyo via these instructions http://androidspin.com/2010/06/23/how-to-g...ny-stock-build/ So now I do not have root anymore. I have installed Superboot for FRF83 and flashed it. It seems to have worked as I now have one new app, "Superuser" (is there supposed to be a second app?). However when I try to install "Titanium backup" it says that I lack root. Is there anything that I am doing wrong. Some step I am skipping? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance

Guest Daiku Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Hello, I'm having an issue with super user permissions not wanting to work. I'm running frf83 and am new to the whole rooting/ android thing. Came from an iPhone (hate them after getting my n1) anyway I've done everything I can think of in order to get root access. usb debugging is enabled and the dos promt said okay to the read and write. I've since tried using the adb tool like people have suggested and have had no luck. When I try and type su into the prompt it says no su or something and when I try the whole section of mounting and remounting everything when i get to /xbin/su it tells me no file exsist or something like that. Again usb debugging is enabled and I have the super user permissions app on/ available. If any one could attempt at helping me out it would be much appreciated. Thanks Sent from my nexus one (ShapeWriter is beast)
Guest sonicjuice Posted June 28, 2010 Report Posted June 28, 2010 Paul I've apparently got a Google 'Holiday' developer phone running build ERD56C. Am I safe to use the ERD79 version of SUPERBOOT? cheers, Thomas p.s. PM'd you about this phone in relation to another thread...
