[Q] kdz_up_fwd error with permission...!?!?

Hi xda-dev..
Earlier this day, i was about to flash my lg gt540... But suddenly i got this problem. I followed a guide from here. Amazing guide, i just get stuck at an sertain point.
The "kdz_fw_upd tool" does not work! I have tried on 3 diffrent computers, and yes the program is running as administrator.
I get and error that say, i dont have the right/nessasary rights to run this program.
I can't see what i am doing wrong?
Any other that got this problem?

are you running windows enabler?

Yes i run windows enabler, i also ran it as administrator, and still nothing is happening.

Yes i run windows enabler, i also ran it as administrator, and still nothing is happening.

So what actually happening are you getting to the point were the phone is connected and its goes into download mode or can you not get the kdz flasher top open?

the kdz flashing tool wont work at all! Not with phone connected or disconnected. I simply wont open.
here i a picture.

Im danish to i translate it for you, as good as i can.
"Windows could not get acess to the device or file. You might dont have to right permissions to get acess to this element."
Same message on three diffrent Pc's....

Update!
I rebootet my PC in safemode, and there i am enable to open kdz_up_fwd, but because of safemode i dont load the drivers, and so my pc cant find the phone then....
Never heard of a problem like this.

First thing i suggest you do is put clockwork on and swiftdroid.
Heres a vid http://www.youtube.com/user/Tech2Tuts

That is the problem! I can't follow this guide because my rom dosent have fastboot. And i need fastboot to flash it to swiftdroid and that, but im still stucked, because i cant flash it with a rom with fastboot, when that bloody tool isnt working! :S

G2x rooting not

i just got a g2x and i have tried rooting it which has 2.3.3 software and it is not working
tried all the ways ive read on here
is there a NEW way to do this that is more easy and simple ?

If you have clockworkmod installed, you can flash a rooted version of the official Gingerbread update.
I don't believe there's an easy way to root stock OTA using one-click root tools or anything like that.
Check the Dev page for "rooted OTA" or something similar.

Try searching and reading a bit bro, here u go. Flash recovery through nvflash then you can flash any rom.

Have you successfully flashed clockworkmod recovery to your phone? You'll know you've flashed it correctly if with your phone off you can boot into recovery by holding Volume Down + Power.

IF i do that the phone resets

Ok that means you still have stock recovery. For now the only way to have a rooted gingerbread installation on this phone is to flash a pre-rooted version. To do that you need a custom recovery. If you wish to have rooted gingerbread on your G2X then getting clockworkmod recovery properly flashed to your phone is where you have to start. Follow the instructions in OP of this thread and you'll be ready to flash roms:

guess ill wait for something easier,i tried those steps already and it keeps saying no usb device detected

Did you install the device drivers??? Did you restart after installing them?

yes i did,when they get it where one click can install EVERYTHING i'LL try it again
this has given me headaches the last few days

Which "one click" did you try? There is Superoneclick which is a rooting tool, and currently doesn't work for gingerbread on the G2X. There is also the one-click nvflash tool, which installs clockworkmod recovery on your phone. The nvflash tool is the one you need. Did you use that one?
G2X CM7

yes but maybe i did it wrong...i uniinstalled everything from my computer,so now im will try it again when i find all the right links

this is ridiculous!!!! tried it again with no luck
this is the hardest way to root a phone ive seen yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i cant even extract the cwr or i can but nothing happens except it shows file that cant be opened
please find a easier way to root the 2.3.3 software!!!!!!!

Even if you could root your 2.3.3 rom, you'd still need to nvflash cwm recovery. It's really a very easy process. Once you have the drivers installed, it takes less than a minute to flash recovery. I'm not sure where you're getting stuck.
G2X CM7

From the thread I linked to above, you downloaded the file called One-Click-G2x-recovery-flasher-06-16.far correct? You need to Winrar to extract it. Once you extract it then you just follow the directions in the OP of that thread I linked to. I'm not sure how to make it any clearer. Every step is listed very plainly in that tutorial.

You're so close! Don't give up! My guess is its one of 4 problems:
-- APX driver is not properly installed. This is what I would check first.
This is copied from the guide I linked to earlier:
"Unlike a lot of Android phones out there the Nvidia Tegra2 chipset require additional drivers in Windows to support low level flashing.
Install APX Windows driver from APX folder.
(Windows x86 and x64 O/S Drivers): ****If you are running VmWare kill it.****
1. Remove the battery.
2. Plug in your USB cable to your PC.
3. Hold Volume Up and Volume Down at the same time keeping them held down.
4. Plug in the USB cable to your phone. (Keep the buttons held until Windows detects a new APX device.)
5. Open Device Manager in Windows and you should see "APX Device" listed with an error icon.
6. Right click on the APX device.
7. Select 'Update driver software'.
8. Select 'Browse my computer...'.
9. Select 'Let me pick...'.
10. Select 'Have disk'.
11. Browse to directory you extracted the *driver* software to: One-Click-G2x-recovery-flasher-06-16\APX.
12. Accept any warnings, including the big red alert (you may need to disable UAC).
13. Now in Device Manager under 'USB Controllers' you should have an 'NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for mobile devices'.
14. If not, uninstall the driver, reboot, rinse and repeat."
-- Bad USB cable.
-- Bad USB port.
-- You're not following the directions exactly as they're written in the tutorial.

[Q] Root Problems

I am coming from the Galaxy S Vibrant and so far I am not impressed by the whole rooting process for the Skyrocket. I have tried on 3 different windows computers and every time it says it is unable to recognize device. I installed the drivers but I don't believe they were installed correctly. When I click root in super one click, the application stops responding.
I made sure to select debugging and when I connect the phone to the computer nothing prompts me on the phone. Is there something I am missing in order to get the Skyrocket recognized by Windows?

You need to be patient. the program stopped responding for nearly 5 minutes for me before it started going again and my PC is lightning fast.
Try installing Samsung kies. Should give you all the drivers you need.
If your computer doesn't recognize the phone at all then you most likely dont have the drivers installed correctly or a USB hub driver issue in which case no USB devices would work. Like I said, try installing kies. Once you can get the PC to recognize the phone as a storage device, you should be good to run the root program.

I tried Kies already and it didn't help. I can connect my Vibrant with no problem to my computer as well.

i had somewhat the same problem , I rooted my old vibrant first incase i screwed something up , no big loss , it went smooth as butter , then I hooked the SR up and it took forever , 3 try I unplugged alot of my other usb devices , restarted the pc and tried , it hung for a few minutes and I left it alone , it eventually worked the last time. I also have a pretty solid pc , running win7 64bit , unplugging alot of my usb devices seemed to be the thing that really helped.
hope that helps ya

rooting this device is easier then posting that on the forum =)
1) If you are still 2.3.5 (and didn't do the OTA upgrade) -> use doomlord's script (DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su) or newer if there is one:
-if you did do the OTA upgrade - search the forum for another way to root.
2) install KIES (if its installed, continue to 3)
3) extract the DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip to anywhere (maybe c:\doom )
4) open a command prompt (run as administrator if your not running windows XP)
5) goto c:\doom\files\
6) type "adb devices"
- if it finds your device - just run the script , it will root your phone
- if it does NOT find your device, troubleshot kies (uninstall it, reboot, reinstall, disable anti virus/firewall, etc etc) because if it can't find the device then the problem is someplace on your computer.
good luck!

[SOLVED] USB still not recognized (ICS Leak)

Edit:
This problem has been solved. For any of you that are having issues with ADB recognizing your phone, even after you have uninstalled and reinstalled the correct drivers (As I had done several times on 2 computers), a factory reset might be your answer. So, if you are on ICS leak, and the last thing you want to do is try to FXZ back to 2.3.6...Try wiping data/factory reset first. It solved my problem once and for all.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, I must say that I have already found similar threads of this type, and some even with solutions, but I still cannot fix this problem.
I am on ICS Leak on my AT&T Atrix 2 and everything is running great, aside from one thing. I cannot get my computer to recognize my device. When I plug it in, it will charge, but I get no USB options in my notification bar on my phone. I have tried other solutions, and I have installed the necessary drivers, (Windows 7), I have uninstalled and reinstalled, and rebooted with no luck. If anyone could help me, that would be great! Let me know if any more details are needed...

Recognition problem solved. Root script still hanging at *daemon started successfully*
Debugging is on, Stay awake on, Install from unknown sources on, drivers installed, what else could be the problem?

I had to uninstall drivers and all moto services. Then plug in phone let it look for install drivers. It failed on one of them. I then installed the moto portal disconnected my phone, rebooted computer and phone, plugged it back in and it worked. Good luck.

First off if you found similar threads post in them, no need to start a new thread
I'm guessing you are trying to root?
if you are, the script takes a while to run your phone will reboot several times it will tell you when it is done

adb devices command showing your device? If so, try again.. and wait, like drgravy said.
Or do what leif said and switch between the 3 different usb connection types and wait for the drivers to install.. and try putting it in mtp or ptp mode to run the root batch file..

Sorry about the new thread. Blame it on the n00b status. I have rooted with this method before on the same model phone with ICS leak and it worked after a few unsuccessful tries. It usually shows some activity in the command prompt, but this time it is hanging at *daemon started successfully*

I've tried in every connection mode, and I have the drivers installed. I've been trying every way possible. Also, for simplicity sake, could you tell me how to use the adb devices command? I'm tech savvy but pretty green to the development/programming side of things.

Also, once i uninstall Motorola Device Manager, do I have to manually uninstall more drivers, or does that get them all? If not, how do I manually uninstall the drivers?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29609879
I was having the exact same issue where it was hanging at daemon started successfully. Was totally a driver issue. Follow the link in my link...
I would suggest completely uninstalling everything Moto from your PC, rebooting and then follow the steps again, being sure to install those new drivers that are linked in that post.
Edit: I'm trying to remember when I did it....but I seem to recall having a bit of weirdness when I installed the new drivers. I had the install driver wizard pop up while I was installing the drivers from the moto driver executable. I just let the wizard sit there and wait while the moto driver installer did its thing.

So, instead of uninstalling all that is Moto on my laptop, I moved the Moto Device Driver executable and the batch files (with Su and Superuser.apk and all the extras to my desktop. Ran the moto executable and plugged my phone in to install the drivers and rebooted the computer. Still nothing. Do i need adb on my desktop to root my phone? I'm getting flustered with this. It really should be working one way or the other....

Same issue for me..i reinstalled drivers and connected the phone in media transfer mode..rest of procedure same..am successfuly rooted now

I tried and tried to reinstall the drivers, and even installing them on a different PC didn't work. Finally, I did a factory reset, and the phone was recognized by ADB. Thankfully, I am now rooted and on SCv7!! (Thanks to Jimbridgman, Ikrasner, and a couple other devs.) Thank you all.

Phone is not recognized by any rooting command prompt application

Hello,
I have an Xperia L that I want to root and install a custom ROM on it.
The problem is that whenever I connect the phone to my laptop, although it is recognized by the laptop, the drivers are installing, and the phone is connected without any problem, any of the rooting command prompt-based applications I have tried aren't recognizing my phone or they aren't working.
I've tried motochopper, Doomlord easy rooting toolkit, and rootkitXperiaL, all of them downloaded from this forum.
The general error and freeze is "daemon started successfully", but after that there's nothing happening at all.
My cell phone is quite old and used, and the Volume Up button doesn't work, in order to put it in Fastboot mode, if that's gonna' help at all, so is there any solution to this?
Thank you very much.

If you just want to root your phone (using windows pc), I suggest vroot ( older version of iroot for windows). But first you should enable debugging mode in developer options . It works with just one click and simply roots Xperia L ! Then you can feel roots of your phone and use its capabilities
