I did every thing as it is mentioned in the Post, but after i enter
"./misc_version -s 1.31.405.6"
it says:
"permission Denied"
any thing else i can do?
There are two reasons which came into my mind:
1) psneuter did not manage to gain root access.
Otherwise you had permissions to access /dev/block/mmcblk0p17
Did you have "#" prompt when you entered "./misc_version -s 1.31.405.6" command or was the prompt "$" ?
2) there's something wrong with /data/local/tmp/psneuter file. Maybe missing execute permission so it gives "permission Denied" when you are trying to execute it?
Copy-paste of terminal session would help a lot.
Problem solved!
I tried the procedure 3 or 4 times and in all of them I got "#" sign I do not know what was the problem but this last time it worked!
Thank You Very Much
I have the same problem!
Thank You Very Much
I have rooted my G2X and since changing roms didn't do anything to help fix the rebooting issues I've decided to send it back for a different one. I just want to make sure that I won't have a problem once they get my phone. I followed the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14159600#post14159600 but for some reason when I click unroot it seems to get stuck at a certain point.
I did make a backup of the ROM that came with the phone, but i also tried a few custom ROMs as well as trying the LG updated ROM. Currently if I open Android Terminal Emulator and type 'su' it gives me a permission denied error. If I try the 'Root Checker" app under basic it will say the phone isn't rooted and busybox isn't installed but when I go under advanced half the time I click verify it'll say it's not rooted and other times it will say it is rooted... so it's confusing me. Advanced still shows busybox as not installed, so it's just root that changes between rooted and not rooted under advanced in root checker.
Root Checker Basic > "Sorry, you don't have root access. For detailed output, please use the advanced mode" - It will say that EVERY time I try.
Root Checker Advanced >
Root Access is not properly configured or was not granted.
Superuser.apk - com.noshufou.android.su - is not installed!
The application Superuser is recommended as it provides basic security and is available for free in the android market.
Standard su binary location:
/system/bin/su: No such file or directory
Standard su binary location:
/system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Alternate su binary location: /sbin/su: Permission denied
SU binary not found in the system declared PATH
Then if I hit Verify Root again it may show the above a few times, but eventually (sometimes 1 click after) it will show:
Congratulations! You have root access!
Superuser.apk - com.noshufou.android.su - is not installed!

Root not properly returning its user id
Root group id:

So I guess I'm wondering why it's showing as not rooted EVERY time under basic, but showing rooted and unrooted under advanced. If terminal emulator is giving su a permission denied error instead of a # doesn't that mean it's not rooted? Sorry for the long post, but I can't take the chance of sending the phone back rooted. Also, when I used the LG Update it updated my baseband to July 15th which isn't the one that came with the phone or the one that was with the stock rom i'm using now... could that be an issue? If anyone can help me I'd really appreciate it, thanks!
Also, since when I used the LG update it updated my baseband is it possible to revert it back to the stock baseband that was on it when I purchased the phone?
since you already did the LG update it seems like with the new baseband- why not use the stock 2.3.3 rom found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196019
i believe that after you flash this rom you will lose root- so you should be able to send back to tmobile with no prob- just make sure to flash back to stock recovery.
thanks for the reply, was actually in the process of doing that as you posted lol... thanks again, appreciate the help, at least now i know i'm going in the right direction ^_^
I installed 2.3.3, flashed back to stock recovery... terminal emulator still gives permission denied when i type 'su' and root checker still says not rooted for basic and switches between rooted and not rooted under advanced... is there a way to verify my phone isn't rooted besides root checker? I don't want to send back a rooted phone and the root checker is giving me mixed results under advanced so i don't know what to do at this point
Hello, I am new to the forum. I have been following the guide posted here
[GUIDE] Perma-root and S-OFF!! (Both manually or if you used VISONary r12)
So far what I have done is the following:
-I factory reset my phone to avoid any problems
-I temporally root with visionary
-I used root explorer to copy the files hboot-eng.img and wpthis-OTA.ko to data/local directory
-I ran the command
$ su
# insmod /data/local/wpthis-OTA.ko
and I get the following message in the terminal:
insmod: init_module 'data/local/wpthis-OTA.ko' failed (Function not implemented)
Is somewhat the message i should be getting, except that I should get:
init_module 'wpthis-OTA.ko' failed (Function not implemented)
I want to know if that is OK and I should continue with the rooting(trying the command to get S-OFF) or I did something wrong.
I am sorry if the answer is obvious but I don't want to brick my phone
Dear mate, I want to be Super user for some application.
I did root with many methods such as SuperOneClick, z4root, CWM_Flasher, Megratron etc.
All of them could not worked but it not make my phone a brick.

After that program not respond but phone can be running after reboot process.
Other example on CWM, it said "adb server is out of date" and "su: permission denied"
Other trying with Megatron,
It shown
run-as: Package 'com.ti.fmrxapp' has corrupt installation
After that phone re-boot then same message shown again with 5 lines
And " su: permission denied"
Re-boot again with some text is complete but my phone still not Super User.

Are you sure you're entering the correct directory for the sdcard into the shell (terminal with a #)?
yes I typed right path and even checked it 3-4 times.
you can see it in the screenshot. I'm trying to run complete linux installer script to install ubuntu on my phone. my phone supports loop devices.
