Hi everyone, i post this new thread for ask you if you can launch Terminal Emulator on your DHD... it's crash for me with or without Visionary temp root...
Thank's for your awnser.
The DHD has a security system build in, so it is S-ON (security on). You should be able to start the emulator, but is not possible to use it, and remove (for example) system/app.

I can't seem to find out how to get into the fastboot on my n1. I searched and came out empty handed. This is my first android phone and I have had it for 4 days. I rooted the phone and got setCPU but apparently I need to get into fast boot in order to use it.
If you turn off you phone, then turn it back on while holding down the trackball, that will take you directly to fastboot. (use volume and power keys to navigate in fastboot)
Not sure why you need fastboot for setCPU. If you have a rooted rom, you should just be able to run it, you will need a modified kernel to overclock it though, that doesn't necessarily require fastboot either.
According to. Redmond pie I need. To enter some things in fastboot. My set CPU says that it cannot gain root access and that it needs to be added as a superuser program or something like that.
Are you sure you have root? Check, using a root access flashlight from the market...

It is your rom that gives you root priveleges, (not saying there isn't) but i can't think of anything you are going to put into fastboot that will change that.
I don't think flashlight needs root anymore, the simplest other method is to go to the terminal emulator app, and simply write "su" into it (without quotation marks, if it says permission denied, you don't have root, if "#" appears, you have root.
You can also check for a "superuser" app in your drawer, it also gives a list of apps you have given root permissions to, setCPU should be in there
To add to that:
When you try and run SetCPU, the SuperUser app should pop up with a message, asking if you want to grant superuser permission...

It sure doesn't do that.

It says it can't link su.
When I go here and download the 1.6.2 and try to root it says your device is alreadyrooted.

Hey guys,
I had a few questions about sideloading off market apps, that i couldn't find answers to. Thanks for your consideration.
If i understand correctly, you can only sideload apps on my unrooted samsung captivate by using a connection to a computer, right?
I know about the sideload wonder machine and i have used it successfully.
I know i could download the android sdk, and use the adb push command.
Is there a way to edit the no_market_app value in the settings db file only using my un-rooted phone?
Or can i use terminal emulator or a combination of both to somehow install an off market app?
I was just trying to think of ways to avoid having to conncect to a computer to install an app. I was on the road with a friend, and i had an off market app i wanted to give him, but he also has att(which blocks sideloading of off market apps), so i didn't even try. But wouldn't it be awesome if i could send the apps to his phone through bluetooth or email, then install it on his phone without rooting his phone? Maybe a temporary root of some sort would work? Isn't that how swc works?
Anyways, once i've played enough with my stock phone, i'll beg for more and i'll eventually root, and i'll probably end up playing with the sdk too. Thanks again guys!
To Root or Not To Root... or Perhaps Just A Temp Root...
There are a few quick fix temp root apps floating around. It really depends on you model and build if they work correctly or not.
You could, as you mentioned, push from a cmd promt in adb, install from the cmd promt in adb to the device - or - pull from the device itself using a shell or terminal.
Unfortunately, I currently don't know of a direct way that you would be able to access, let alone edit the system.db file to make a permanent modification without at least being under a temp root.
Peace-
Psneuter exploit is working on IS, but because /system is locked on s-on phones, we can't copy su and superuser.apk into /system, apps required root access can't work.
The following procedure uses psenuter exploit to gain adb shell root, and then copy su (without privilege control ) and busybox into /sbin (which is on rootfs and in the global PATH list) to gain root access for apps.
The procedure:
1. Unzip the attached .zip into a directory (like c:\adb)
2. Open a command prompt and cd to the directory where you extracted the .zip (like cd \adb)
3. run pushroot.bat (simply type pushroot)
4. adb shell /data/local/tmp/getroot
5. adb shell
6. you are now in # prompt. Type /data/local/tmp/pushroot
You have to redo steps 4,5,6 once you reboot your phone.
The procedure will have all apps gaining root access.
!!USE ON YOUR OWN RISK!!
Known working programs: Root explorer, Titanium backup, gscript lite, trasproxy 2.04, ...
Some apps check existence of su in /system/xbin , and reject to proceed if the su binary is not exist (like transproxy 3.08). For this kind of apps, this procedure won't help.
Nice but old news mate...

Good job...thanks
Thanks for writing this up, might quell the thirst for S-OFF a little longer
/system/ is writeable btw, if you remount it, but after reboot everything u done will be changed to the way it were before.
so a temp root in xbin is possible also, only it will be gone afterwards (atleast i never tried this, but should work also...)
Yes. /system could be remount in rw with root. However, the files you wrote will be gone after you remount ro, and then you won't be able to copy the same filename into the same location again before next reboot ( I don't know why, actually!!). This is why I put su in sbin instead of /system/xbin.
thanks to your files 非常感谢你的工作。
Does anyone know whether steps 4, 5 and 6 can be run from the device itself?
Can I put these commands into some sort of script and run it everytime I need temp root or would I need to do this from a computer every time?

I believe you can do it from a terminal emulator but haven't got the chance to try it myself though.

Definitely, this is the way to go.
Unfortunately, the root exploit I know could run on device itself, including
rageagainstthecage (ratc) and local root exploit (hotplug) both failed on IS.
The solution will be nearly perfect if we can get temp root on IS without a computer link.
Any input will be welcome.

Please then type adb shell.
If you see # but not $, do
cd /data/local/tmp
rm ./cp
ln busybox cp
./pushroot
Then you finished the install.
If you see $, please do all over again.
You can also add ShootMe (screen capture app) and SetCPU to the list of working apps. SetCPU will only allow you underclock for now due to the kernel, but it is a nice touch if you are worried about battery life. Adfree doesn't appear to work

Adfree is working for me. Are you getting some type of error message?
MetaMorph, screenshot and MyBackup Root are also working.
I had to mount system, then push su to /system/xbin. Then install BusyBox Installer from Market.
No erro, still got the ads. I've tried rebooting & rerooting, still no luck

What site/app are you going to so I can see if I get the ads.
the anti-ads actually tries to modify the current host file... which is not allowed in your state as far as i know
what you can do is replace it by pushin it to the right spot
but after reboot gone,but sure u know
Adfee is working for me, you can also add Droidwall.
@eddycyf, did you test adfree with apps? Since it aint working for prophet...

Mhm AdFree isnt working for me. The App states that everything is okay, and that my hosts file is up to date, but I see ads everywhere.
But I am kinda happy now, because i can use Titanium Backup
The Qemu automation script seems to work when rooting the device, I get the output saying it is rooted etc... The kindle restarts one final time and boots up again, all seems good, and superuser is installed. I can see it among my apps...
I used adb install to install root file explorer, and I grant it root access when trying to run it, but then it keeps closing on startup. The message "Root file explorer was stopped"... The software version is 7.2.1...
Any ideas out there? I am probably doing something stupid. I have also tried rooting manually with the same results.
I presume you've installed a terminal emulator and typed su and pressed enter. If this failed than you have root problems sir.

Yeah, I tried that... it runs with root access no problem... but when I Install root explorer it kills it.
Thanks though
That happened to me before.. to fix it just opened SU once, then tried again with Es and worked.

I suggest you to use Instapaper. Because it offers a Kindle app for Amazon's eReaders that let you read text-based versions of your saved articles. These text-only versions are designed to be easily read on eInk displays. You can shift the articles via USB, or set up wireless delivery via a newsletter that can be automatically downloaded to your Kindle as often as once per day. Once downloaded, the articles are accessible even when you're away from wifi.
