Hi Guys,
I have a bit of a problem, I want to install a custom rom on my HTC Legend. But I am a kinda noobish. I followed a couple tutorials from a site called hxxp://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-root-the-htc-legend There it says that I have to downgrade my HTC Legend to 1.31. Before the downgrading proces you have to make a goldcard, I am managed to make one. But I get stuck with the Downgrading
It says I have to follow these couple things
III. Make Phone Downgrade-able
1. On your phone, make sure that USB Debugging is checked ON in Settings > Applications > Development.
Done
2. Plug in your phone and make sure it is connected as Charge Only NOT Disk Drive or something else.
Done
3. Download the Downgrading Tools and extract them to your AndroidSDK\tools\ folder (all of the files need to be in the tools folder with adb).
Done
4. Open a command prompt on your computer by clicking on the Start button and typing cmd and hitting enter in the search box.
Done
5. In the command prompt, type the following with hitting enter at the end of each line:
cd c:\AndroidSDK\tools\
crackin.bat
Done
6. The phone will reboot 5 times, be patient.
Done
7. After it is done, you will see a bunch of error messages, that is normal.
Done
8. Look for the following line, if you see it (the date and time can be different)
you are ready to continue, if not then reboot your phone, factory reset it, and try again:
crwxrwxrwx 1 1001 2002 90, 0 Jul 19 16:19 /dev/mtd/mtd0
This part doesnt work for me! This is what I get in CMD.exe:

What to do ?
mij boot loader is 1.01
You missed a step or something that's why it says no file or directory,make sure files where pushed into the Data folder
adb shell
cd data
ls
and you should see the dxdrm
Hello,
If i do that i get this :
C:\androidSDK\tools>adb shell
$ cd data
cd data
$ ls
ls
opendir failed, Permission denied
edit :
I finaly managed to roll back to 2.1 what to do now ?

Hi, i saw Bin4ry .bat file that root phones like xperia s without unlocking the bootloader.
I tried with my Gnex stoc 4.1.1
Does someone know why it doesn't work?
Here's what i get:

Please look at your device and click RESTORE!
If all is successful i will tell you, if not this shell will run forever.
Successful, going to reboot your device!
Waiting for device to show up again....

Quick guide for people having trouble rooting/unlocking bootloader and custom recovery LG-D320/N/L70 devices running 4.4.2 with a new 3.4.0+ kernel
This way is easier then any root method and NO PC is required
Simple, straight forward, takes not even 5 minutes.
First download and install these 3 apps.
CPU Benchamark
Terminal Emulator
KingoRoot.apk
Second, download this zip file and extract the "mrw" folder to your phones internal memory(/sdcard)
ReplaceKingoRoot.zip
Third, open CPU Benchtest app and press the "stress test" box, then minimize the app and open Kingo ROOT app and press the "ROOT" bubble
Fourth, Kingo ROOT says your device is rooted open Terminal Emulator and type the following
Code:
su
Your device will ask if Terminal Emulator can be granted root permissions, allow it then proceed to type the following
Code:
sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
Then SuperSU will automatically open and ask to update SuperSU binaries, select the "update" box and when it asks you how you want to update it select the "normal" box
Five, Restart your phone when SuperSU says you need to restart for the update to take effect
Now, unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom recovery, fortunately i made a tool for this with the required files.
simply download this, unzip it onto the desktop and run LGTOOL.BAT by double clicking it and follow the instructions.

every device should be able to gain full flexibillity, no matter how old, how new, how popular or unpopular and device i get my hands on will gain full access
time to make a custom rom now
I think everything is done "custom ROM" wise. AOSP, cm11, cm12, carbon (by me) and other ROMs

ofcoarse its done custom rom wise, you can modify a rom with root access but to safely modify a rom and test recovery is mandatory

Yea i have the same problem with this i've done everything right step by step but seems cant find the location of the root can anyone help me or the topic is dead ?
ROM: LineageOS 18.1, Recovery: LineageOS 18.1 recovery
I messed up and put my build.prop in an invalid state. I got the default build.prop from the rom zip,rebooted the phone to recovery (lineageos 18.1 recovery), mounted the system partition on /mnt/system, and tried to write build.prop to default via adb shell and then cat >/mnt/system/system/build.prop and writing whatever stuff I want. However, even after remounting as rw, I get the following error message:
Code:
cat: xwrite: No space left on device
The same thing happens if I just edit on my PC and do adb push
Code:
$ adb push build.prop /mnt/system/system/build.prop
build.prop: 1 file pushed, 0 skipped. 89.9 MB/s (2662 bytes in 0.000s)
adb: error: failed to copy 'build.prop' to '/mnt/system/system/build.prop': remote write failed: No space left on device
Now what does this even mean?? There is 3.1M free space, as confirmed by df -h. I really searched I cannot find anything on this. Any help would be really appreciated!
---
I can confirm it is mounted as rw by checking this line in /proc/mounts
Code:
/dev/block/dm-0 /mnt/system ext4 rw,seclabel,relatime 0 0
adb remount also fails with
/system/bin/sh: remount: inaccessible or not found
I'm at my wit's end, any guidance here? I feel this should really not be this difficult! I just want to rewrite build.prop from adb/recovery!
---
It might have something to do with overlayfs, as seen here https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/fs_mgr/README.overlayfs.md. However adb remount merely says /system/bin/sh: remount: inaccessible or not found! How should I get this to work?
---
Finally: maybe I could just try to flash a zip containing only the build.prop via adb sideload? Will adb sideload wipe anything (e.g. system) or just overwrite the files which are present in the zip?
---
Just ended up flashing again. It worked without deleting apps or data
