Good afternoon,
I have perm rooted Archos G9 device using the images of surdu_petru . I want to write android app which stops service which is c++ program compiled for ARM. The problem is that when I try to get su I am always denied. I downloaded some apps to check if I have rooted my device and they said that I have busybox and su but I can`t get su priviledges. Any ideas how to solve that problem? Is it only me or everyone is like that?

Hey all,
I want to root my HTC magic but keep the stock firmware on it (mostly just to do wifi tethering). I've gotten as far as getting a su binary on the phone which claims to allow all apps to su (from http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Root_Access ), and i can get root when i adb shell into the phone. However, android-wifi-tether still claims that it's "unable to start tethering", which i put down to needing some sort of bridge between the java apps and the su binary? Something that pops up for example, that dialogue in cyanogen about whether or not you want to grant root?
Any ideas?
hello, I have been trying to root my motorola backflip 1.5 for over a week now with no luck. I have been trying the rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin method and it seems to run fine but when I run su in the terminal emulator it gives me the following error:
bionic/linker/linker/.c:1581| ERROR: 7265 could noot load ´libbinder.so`
bionic/linker/linker/.c:1641| ERROR: failed to link su
bionic/linker/linker/.c:1741| ERROR: cannot link executable `su`
I am trying to root my phone so I ca update it to 2.3 but I can't complete the rooting process, can someone please help me!
try superoneclick
I tried superoneclick, same results!
god damn it....... search xda for rooting methids then if you keep getting su errors then you might not be able to root the phone

Well bionic is the android version of the libc programming library and libbinder.so is a library of some kind, which it can not load, either because it is not there, or not where it is looking for it, or not accessible due to permissions or an incompatible library for your system.
No idea how to fix it though, but thought i would shed some insight.
Hello there well I'm using superoneclick and I found that its not putting the su exe in the right place it puts it in (/system/xbin/) and where it should go in /system/bin where all the commonds are.?
Are you sure that you're rooting it correctly?
Please make use of the instructions below .
Download Super One Click, make sure you have the Android debugger (SDK developer kit) running, expand the Super One Click zip file and click the SuperOneClick icon to run it. When SuperOneClick launches, you’ll see several large buttons at the top of the screen. Make sure your phone is connected to the computer via USB and that the debugger can “see” it (activity will start logging). Make sure your SD card is not mounted, and go ahead and click “Root” in SuperOneClick.
You’ll see the scrolling activity as SuperOneClick does it’s job, with “OK” appearing after each task. You may see warnings, but so long as it doesn’t “hang” on waiting for device, things should keep scrolling until it finally returns the “Success!” message. If you're stuck , go to your phone and enable usb debug and disable again . Until you get past it , that's how i got it to work for my phone.
At this point, check out the installed apps on your phone and you should see a “Superuser” icon that looks like a Droid skull and crossbones. If you see it, you’re rooted. If you don’t see it, reboot the Droid. In fact, I’d suggest rebooting even if you do see it, as I had some issues getting rooted apps to work until I actually rebooted my own device.
hi, is it conceivably possible to root a fone with something like connect-bot. since it's local command-line shell has access to the directory tree above /mnt/sdcard , couldnt someone download the files needed for the root to the fone via the web browser and copy them to the correct locations with something like connect bot ?
i am new to android so i am wondering if there is a hole in my theory ?
thanks,
Depends on the phone really. Some need to flash files you normally can't while OS is still up. Some, perhaps?
There are root deployment applications which can be ran on some phones

thanks, i wonder if there is a roster of files that need to be updated/ replaced for rooting a 'samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch by sprint' (i hate that name).
the reason why i ask is because since android has a perfectly capable linux command-line and file browser then there is no need for windows. (i managed to install heimdall on fedora but i have a suspicion that the apb just runs the commands as if it was run directly on the fone).
Most of the phones need to connect into PC usb port... unfortunatelly
The way of rooting depends on which android version you are using. Some exploits allow applications to get root privilege; others, like psneuter(2.1) or zergRush(2.3.3) work restarting the ADBd with root privileges by making it believe it's running on a test(rooted) phone.
On the first case, I remember an application called "Universal Androot", which I used to root my first Android phone, SE Xperia X10 mini, when using Android 1.6. That app exploited some security error on the system, and gained root itself, so I rooted my phone without need of a computer. Also, for 2.3 API Level 9, I think GingerBreak has an android app which does the same.
For the second type(the most common), it's necessary to use a computer, as the only way to get the root privilege once exploited is via the ADB console "adb shell". The other processes will remain running with their original privileges.
^ thx for the explanation. kinda' like you cant upgrade the kernal of a running system.
hmm that would be nice if someone sort this out..
Like Z4?
HTC Thunderbolt running MIUI
sort of, but more related to android security: exploits like psneuter & zergRush attack ADBd to make it run as root. other exploits, like gingerbreak, give root privileges to the application which run the exploit(somehow equivalent to running "su" on the terminal)

Hi friends, I have a ZiiO 10 tablet with android 2.2 and build number 2.0.0.14 (latest), want to root it, i've done everything in this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15903421&postcount=5
I've tested this solution with many versions of Superuser and SuperOneClick, but when the root done, sometimes a notification told me to "#update su binary" when i click update, it said fails, I want to use ProxyDroid application on my tablet, this application needs root to function, but when i open it, the tablet hangs up !
Anybody can help me with that ?
Wich SuperOneClick version will i use ?
Wich Superuser version will i use ?
I think there is something wrong with this tutorial ...
up........
You could try z4root on a Froyo device. It's a bit older, but works well for me.
Without running into a NAND lock, I've never had a problem using SuperOneClick to be honest, and I recommend it to just about everyone. Provided you have the correct drivers installed on your machine and your NAND/bootloader lock is open, I haven't had a phone that doesn't work with it yet.
Good luck!
z4root don't work for me , another solution ?

Hello i've creative ziio 10 and i want to root
I have Penta T-Pad WS704X 3G calling tablet. It runs on lollipop 5.1.1
The issue is regarding it rooted or not. I haven't root it yet, so I think its rooted by manufacturers. The problem I'm facing is that I have installed ccleaner on it and in system info it says that my tab is rooted, but when check the root by using root cheker app it says my device is not properly rooted.
By checking on terminal I get $ sign, and when typing SU I get permission denied.
And in ES file explorer I can't ON the root explorer which it says "test fails, this function can't performed on this device"
Is my device is rooted or not?
It also have su file in system/xbin and sh and busybox in system/bin by default.
I haven't try any rooting procedure yet.
So question is whether my device is rooted or not by the manufacturers?
Please help, I'm unable to move my apps to SD card.
