Greetings!
I'm new to all this so I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong place. Please forgive me if I am.
I've spent the last hour searching all over these forums and the web in general for the answer to my question, but I haven't seen a resolution.
I have now tried the SuperOneClick root for my Nexus One about a dozen times, and it keeps freezing on "Running psneuter..." and never ever goes any further.
I have tried this on two different computers, I installed the USB drivers from the Android SDK, and I have USB debugging turned on. I've followed those instructions for what happens when you get in the loop, even though they don't seem to apply to this exact situation.
There have been a few other threads here that seem to be about this topic, but they simply die out with no apparent resolution.
Please help! I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Any ideas? I'd really like to root my phone, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong...
Yeah, USB debugging on is fine..
Have you tried the gingerbreak APK?

I apologize for being such a noob to all this, but I'm not familiar with what that was. All anyone talks about in the "blogosphere" is SuperOneClick.
Does the gingerbreak APK simply root the phone and not mod it? For the moment I really just need to root. Eventually I want to MOD too, but first I want to get Titanium Backup Pro on there so I can save some game data before I MOD.
Again, sorry for being such a newbie. I haven't done rooting/modding since my G1 about 18 months ago, and things have changed since that...
I have to admit, I'm surprised how many posts I've seen with the exact problem I'm having, yet nobody has responded with an answer to this issue. There are dozens of comments on the Shortfuse site from other people who are stuck at "Running psneuter," and there are no fixes or even responses, really.
There seem to be many smart people on these forums, so it's strange that this hasn't been worked out or even addressed...
Exact same problem as above.. Locks at "running psneuter"
Pulling the usb then goes to ***IF IT KEEPS LOOPING.. Etc *** and then killing ADP server..
Nexus one
2.3.4
GRJ22
From what little I've been able to get out of others here, it seems that the problem is there's no exploit for 2.3.4 yet.
However, I found a guide to rooting here: http://goo.gl/oCWvR
It requires you to have an unlocked bootloader, a process that basically wipes your phone, so be aware of that. But I'm all rooted now so it's definitely possible to do.
Good luck!
I used the exact same guide.. went to post it to a thread here but as I have low post count I cant post links..
Bootloader was already unlocked.
Heh, well, once you get to SIX posts like I have, you're clearly a big-shot poster But yeah, that's a very good guide.
In the end, though, it wasn't what did it for me. I was still having issues with it, but it got fastboot on my system and got me started. I then followed the instructions on Cyanogen's site and put a different recovery on there in order to get CM7 installed on my phone.
Hi there,
I am a new user to an Android Device (Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000); before that I always had a Windows Mobile phone, and I must say now that I am very content with my new device and it's new software. Android works really smooth!
Also, I learned that there is a lot of software to be used on an Android Device, but then your device needs to be rooted first. Now, this is what I would very much like to know...
Is rooting my device a safe procedure?
After rooting my device, am I still able then (if so wished) to restore it back to it's factory settings?
Are there any risks involved?
What about my warranty?
Why should I, or should I NOT, start rooting my device?
What rooting procedure should you suggest to me?
In a way, I am very eager to start rooting my device, but on the other hand I find it a bit scary...
Could you please help me out here?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you!

1. Safe if you know what you're doing.
2. Yes you can revert back to stock
3. You can soft/hard brick your phone if you aren't careful
4. Warranty will be void
4. You should root your phone since you can put custom roms on it, wifi hotspot, debloat your phone. Shouldn't root listed above.
5. follow the link below in order to root.

Thank you for your reply. It all "looks" very easy, although I have a few questions left...
Regarding:
1. "Safe if you know what you're doing." - Do you mean by that: just follow the steps?
3. "You can soft/hard brick your phone if you aren't careful." - What IS a "soft/hard brick" of your phone. In what way then, should I be careful?
Maybe it is NOT fair of me to ask you, also, it seems to me that you are very familiar with it, but would you recommend a novice like me (in this case) to root his new phone, less then a month old, considering the "risks", if there are any, in view of the possible advantages I might find with a rooted phone?
Robert,

Well I'm sure most of the case, people end up soft or hard bricking their phone because they havent read the directions over and over again and get a little too ambitious. Soft bricking is recoverable but when you flash an incorrect rom or kernel, basically keeps boot looping I think. But you can still get into fastboot or recovery. Hard brick is when your phone won't turn on after messing around with the bootloader or something. Sorry, I can't really explain the technical stuff myself as I'm still learning. I'm familiar with rooting and flashing roms on several phones but I don't know if I would say I'm "very familiar" with it. If you're going to be rooting phones often, then I would suggest you learn the steps involved but I mean if this is gonna be the only phone you root and you're not confident in yourself, then I would suggest either a) get it done by someone who knows what they are doing, b) buy one thats already rooted.
OK, thank you for your honest reply. I'll surely take this into consideration. For now, I think, I'll keep my phone the way it is right now - it's doing just fine...
Still, if anyone, with maybe more experience in rooting phones, would like to reply to this thread, I would not mind at all.
Thank you!

hi everyone..
i m new to dis forum..
i own galaxy note with updated firmware(gingerbread 2.3.6ddlb2)..
i want to know how can i root it with super one click..
and what is the process to unroot it as well..
please reply...
read the following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
I was looking for a definite answer as well, as to whether it is safe or not and if so which method, not looking to read several reams of posts that mean little to me. I have read that Samsung chips are defective and rooting the two offered methods on this site are dangerous. So no developments in the past 3-4 months? If so I would have expected a split thread for this from the other ones...either way. Have no time to read filler on forums from end users.
I've rooted phones before all without any issues and always find having to read through forums posts are fruitless endeavors, easier to just do it. But this phone is someone else's and I need to ensure I HAVE A LITTLE MORE RESPONSIBILITY HERE.
I only want to root their phone and nothing more, so they can take control of their security.

CAPTCHA codes suck!
What is with Capthca codes?
Just to let people know I have tried to root using one click method and it failed! No harm to phone but ineffective. The one posted at addictivetips. I never have had a one click method for for me to date, in all years at rooting phones. So anyone that can verify for me a method that does work, I will be grateful. A step by step guide, do not care how many steps or how much I have to type in! Just something that works without fail.
TY :angel:
Hates Captcha codes...use a different method.

Rooting Galaxy Note GT-N7000 with KK7
Hello Guys,
I'm not knew to root. Did it twice but that was on Galaxy S3's. The Note is not as easy.
The 3rd Droid needs to be rooted, because the carrier has no upgrade from GB 2.3.6!
Also, this Note is SIM locked, can I root with it? I do not find an online site to unlock my Carrier. Tried them all.
I searched all over this site for days but do not find a CF-Root for this kernel, KK7
Hope you can point me in the correct direction.
Here is all the info from my phone:
PDA: N7000UBKK7
PHONE: N7000WEKK1
CSC: N7000UWEKK1
Thanks, you guys are doing a great job!
Guys, I have spent hours rooting and unlocking my S3. Reason it has taken so long is either I don't know what I'm doing or there are so many ways to do it, some may be outdated or something. I'll side with the first reason. But, I do have experience in rooting...kept my OG Droid rooted/overclocked/customized. Did the same with my Thunderbolt. Also rooted my S3 a few months ago after the VZW update that crapped out the radio. When they released the fix, I removed root and installed it. Got the urge for some new stuff and here I am...
Here is what I'm doing:
- Using CausalR795b. Seems quick and easy. Definitely provides root, but I'm not sure about unlocking the bootloader. What is the insecure aboot? Says it's ready to install it, but I can't find out what this is?
- Trying to install TWRP recovery. What is the easiest way to do this? The last time I did it with Goomanager, I got the Verizon Unauthorized Software message at boot.
- Trying to install the latest Hyperdrive ROM. Got it installed once and on reboot, got the VZW Unauthorized message again,
- Using ODIN 3.07 to flash a stock ROM after getting the error message.
Can anyone tell me a link with good directions, start to finish? Or, give me some advice? To me, at least, seems like VZW has made customizing the S3 unnecessarily complicated,
Thanks in advance.
Insecure aboot is the unlocked bootloader. Once you install that you will no longer get the VZW Unauthorized message.
First welcome to the community.
second, this is the wrong section.
third, you have to use D2VZW-CASUAL-R634b release to fully unlock bootloader

My bad...I did post in the wrong place. Wasn't even thinking about it. Had just spent so long in this subforum trying to find answers, must have lost my bearing.
I really appreciate your help! The older Causal did everything in one try with no hiccups whatsoever. Why isn't anything posted about this noted in the newer Causal thread? It might be in there somewhere and if I would have seen it, hours would have been saved.
Now rocking the newest Hyperdrive and probably going to try a few more ROM's. Thanks again!
I hate to bring something that many people have already gone through and explained many times. However, there are many explanations and procedures that ultimately lead to obtaining root access as well as S-Off status.
Unfortunately my abilities are limited to reading and following directions of others in the know. But no offense to anyone who has spent their valuable time posting directions in this forum but I have not been able to follow any one set of instructions from start to finish.
Can someone break it down in the most simplest of terms for end users like myself?
My device is HTC Unlocked A9 with Hia 1.56.617.1 base. I have managed to unlock bootloader. From there I have gotten TWRP flashed but even that was shaky at best. I struggled with the encryption, systemless, etc.. and I was never able to get SU with a successful boot. Ended up flashing RUU to get back to stock but with unlocked bootloader.
So I would really appreciate if someone had the patience and time to make things a little more clear on what to do from here.
Thank you, I will for always be in your debt.

Honest answer is wait for the 6t and see if someone figures it out.
If your device is ever soft bricked but you can still access TWRP - you can sideload OOS using fastboot "adb sideload *rom name.zip*. If sideloading fails, you can "adb push *rom name.zip* /data/media/0".
It's next to impossible to brick the oneplus 6 however.... NEVER EVER relock the bootloader with a custom recovery that's the only way I know of which WILL brick your phone.
Despite what you may have read, this is an easy phone to root and mod, it just works differently from other phones, particularly non-A/B phones. This is what has a lot of people salty and frustrated because they don't want to change from the way they think things "should" work.
I don't know of anyone here who has hard-bricked. There is an unbrick tool that works well.
