I just recently purchased the Voodoo control plus 3.0 app from the market. I was told I can use this app with the stock kernels etc etc. im not too great with the phone lingo. but im guessing I can use this app without having to do anything previously to my phone.
but everytime i run the app, i get this message: Module need to be loaded. Superuser is not available.
can someone help me please?
Did you even root your phone? Superuser would be getting root access.
no i dont believe so. If you or someone can help me on how to go about that, i would appreciate it. and also explain what rooting does. thx
google super1click and follow directions or download and flash with a pre rooted rom
i been trying to do the super1lick method but it doesnt seem to be working.
on the program it says "waiting for device" but on the window it says Not Responding (the application itself)
is theres another easier method or another method at all. something quick and easy
not sure how it can get much easier than superoneclickroot. its pretty straightforward. but i can understand if the computer is giving you problems. sometimes the drivers dont always stick for the phone. follow the directions in the thread below and you will have a stock phone that has been rooted:

Then copy the apk to your sd card. And install it. Make sure you can install non-market apps. Then run the app and choose the permanent root option.

LG US740
Hi all, new here but not new to forums in general. I hate to dig up an old topic for a useless device but it's all I have to play with at the moment and I want to experiment with it. Can't find a lot of information on this particular device. I have found plenty of info on rooting and android development in general however nothing seems to work on this phone. Is there anyone who has some clear information on how I can get this thing truly rooted. z4root does nothing except bog it down until I reboot it. The superoneclick seemed to "root" it and installed superuser but still can't do much. Droid explorer keeps crashing with a system out of memory error. I got it to work once where it seemed to be able to explore the files but I didn't get a chance to try anything. I tried android commander and it says my phone isn't rooted. I am super interested in this stuff, but am getting very frustrated with this device. Any intelligent and resourseful information to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
I'm in the same situation as you, friend. Only use mine for wifi and don't have any type of contract/ pay as you go anything, cuz a friend didn't need it anymore, so he gave it to me. First android phone I've been able to tinker with myself. What I did to root my US740 was download and install "gingerbreak." It did the trick for me.
I went to the 4shared website and typed in "gingerbreak.apk" (without quotes) and download it to your phone.
In all your research, did you ever happen to cross information about how to "unbrick" the US740? I seemed to have "bricked" it as in it loops b/t the LG logo, US Cellular and the ANDROID animation...sometimes it hangs at the ANDROID animation, sometimes it reboots itself. The only way I can power it up is when I have it plugged into a power source. Any ideas?
Okay this is my first post because I really need help from you. I watched and learned from youtube videos how to root my phone and followed all the steps because I wanted ice cream sandwhich theme on my phone. My phone has the s-Off.
I open Rom Manager and it says you must root your phone. Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su" or "/system/xbin/su". Use google to search on you computer to find instuctions to root your phone. I click okay and still try to press Flash ClockworkMod recovery
Then it will say an error occured while attempting to run privileged commands. Same thing happens for fix permissions. I have Super User on my computer when I did all of this and I still have it but Have no Idea how to get it on my phone. Please help and put it into retard form for me if you do respond I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

I have an Evo 4G and I used the Revolutionary App on my computer that all I had to do was get the beta key and plug it into the app and It basically did everything. I have done this about 6 hours over three days and Still havent gotten it right.
u need to find the correct method for ur phone model and it will successfully done. Superuser for your pc not the one you should moved to your phone.
As the title says, I have the Samsung Galaxy SII Sprint's variation. I rooted my phone when it was on the version before Gingerbread EL29. I used the SuperOneClick method to root my phone and after doing that, 'Superuser' was installed on my phone. Everything was going fine until I accidentally updated my phone to Gingerbread 2.3.6 EL29 via Sprint's over-the-air update. I know it sounds dumb from me but I really knew that if I updated my phone I could mess up my root privileges, but that pop up update was showing up each 5 minutes, that in one of them I accidentally pressed 'install'. Now I have tried to unroot my phone with SuperOneClick but 'Superuser' is still there and when I access an app that requires root privileges like 'Wireless Tether' it says that my phone is not rooted. I also tried to do a factory reset and root again with 'SuperOneClick' but it freezes up (I guess it's because 'Superuser' is still there?) I was also thinking on installing a rooted rom but I don't know if I can install custom roms (I don't know if I have CWM and if it will mess up because I'm not rooted?..) Right now I just want to get the latest rooted stable release possible.. Sorry for extending myself but I wanted to give all the important details as possible as I am new in handling root phones and also in this forum. I will appreciate any help, thanks!

Thank you PakAttack1994! I watched the video and even though it didn't work at the first time, I was able to ask him my questions and he was able to answer them. If you want to see with the problems that I went through and his replies are on the video comments. I'm the user 'jamesssssss'
lol np, I just pointed you in the right direction. qbking77 deserves a whole heap of credit over me.
Tried the Noob Friendly "Ask ANY Question" thread, got no answer so I'm going to make a thread just to try and get some help.
Bought a GS4 with US Cellular, currently trying to root it using the motochopper method.
I followed the root instructions using Motochopper exactly, and it appears to work. Superuser is installed on my device, etc, but whenever I attempt run Superuser, I am informed that the Superuser binary must be updated. Naturally, I click "Install", but I am greeted with this message:
"There was an error installing Superuser. Please send a log of the error to the developer."
There is no log.
Yes I have USB Debugging enabled
Yes I installed the drivers
What am I doing wrong here?
The ONLY thing I can think is that there might have been an error with the driver installation - When I plug my phone into my computer it tries to autoplay-install drivers even though I already ran the installer for the drivers before I plugged the device in.
I'm completely lost, any help would be appreciated.
Bump....
Anyone out there who has any experience with USC GS4?

I'm not any help, but I experienced the same thing on both of my GS4's and am still looking for a solution.
I'm not a pro but...
I also had this exact same problem. After all the time I spent looking for an answer and not finding one, I eventually found a different method. Which is the twrp method found at galaxy s4 root (dotcom) . Also if you have problems with that method, there are lots of comments and one of them probably address your issue. Speaking from recent experience I'm going to suggest downloading Root checker from the play store because it sounds like you don't actually have root yet. Also, what I had to do with me Sch-r970 is uninstall superuser and go with supersu instead (which is what is included with the above method) , and yank my battery out immediately after running Odin so it doesn't wipe it out. I honestly was just wanting to root mostly to use my s4 as a hot spot but after rooting, have yet to figure that out yet. Good luck.
Hello,
I am new to the forums and android in general. Anyways, I am wondering if any one could advise me on the best steps to root and update my oldish android phone. It is currently on android 2.2.1 and has no support for 2.2.3 which is why I believe I need a custom rom.. I have looked thru numerous threads and sources but have yet to find a method i fully understand and trust, as i hear it.. you guys are very helpful and i am hoping that is true cause im about to pull my hair out at this point
Thanks in advance for any help, its appreciated very much.
Its great that you are showing interest in this. (Edited out, the device is stated in title xD).
Rooting shouldn't be as hard at installing a custom ROM. Older devices are rarely supported nowadays, unless it's really popular like the HTC Wildfire or something.
The best way to root your Optimus C is by using GingerBreak. Many users that have your device use that.

Thanks for taking the time to repond/help. Anyways, after some more research I think I found a easy root solution.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13086954
This method seems both easy and very sraight forward. Could any one please confirm? Id just like a lil insight before taking the plunge. lol
Note* I would link the posts stating this does work to gain root access but i cant post outside links untill i have 10 posts on XDA.
Don't worry, the root method should work just fine.

Ok, got it rooted
The next step would be to download rom manager and make a custom recovery using clockworkmod?
Btw~ incase someone is confused in the future. The root procedure was a few simple steps.
Before doing these steps make sure usb debugging is active. Also temp disable your anti-virus as it will flag the apk as a virus, This is a false positive.
1. Download the file from the first post in the thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049944. (the easy way for me "since i don't have a usb cord" was to click the QR code link on the first post and scan it with one of the many free qr scanner apps from the play store.
2. Navigate to the download and install the APK.
3. Open Gingerbreak.
4. Click "root" and wait for your device to reboot. Thats all :laugh: "if the process takes more then ten minutes reboot your device and run it again"
5. You can go ahead and uinstall/delete the apk once you have sucessfully rooted.
The next step would be to download and install the devices custom recovery.
Don't just install any, again go to that site I had provided you with earlier that have the stock and custom .imgs with steps on how to install it.

Ok so.. I have a problem, I was about to setup a custom recovery when all of a sudden Super User decided to update and now im a little lost. I have still have root acess and all of my root only apps are working perfectly fine. but every time i use a root app or reboot my phone since the SU update i get a message saying my binary files need to be updated. I try to update them and it fails every time, I have looked though a few threads and the only fix i could find was to use busybox installer. But.. busybox will not install on my device. How do i go forward with this? I don't want to mess anything up.. specially since i just thought i had it all figured out. :crying:
Nevermind, I guess i found a decent work around, I uninstalled the update and forced it to not auto update. I don't know if this is a bad practice but it seems to have solved the issue.
I like LG' phones. I am using LG P500 and very like...:good::angel:
