[Q] Nexus One Gingerbread 2.3.3 HOW TO ROOT?

I've just updated my Nexus to 2.3.3 and lost my root. I tried rageagainstthecage again, but it seems that particular exploit is now closed. In fact, when I ran it and adb reset, I could no longer USB debug on my phone until I restarted it.
So... How do we root the Nexus One with 2.3.3 ??
Thanks, Steve.

looking for similar thing too, i had rooted stock N1 2.2.1 then updated to 2.3.3 (CMW with custom ROM+rooted) works pretty cool, what i am wonder, what about if i flash not rooted version , what happen after that, do i lose? ability to root again? or i can just flash su?
thx

The inventor of rageagainsthecage has stated it no longer works on gingerbread. He has another exploit called gingerbreak which he will release when more devices get gingerbread or something. For now, downgrade and flash a pre-rooted gingerbread build. Good luck with that, I still can't seem to downgrade...

Are both you guys running an unlocked bootloader with custom recovery?
If so, then head over to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=968396 and download the su.zip that's attached at the bottom of the first post.
Once downloaded, put it on your SD card, boot into recovery (hold volume down after you hit the power button, then select recovery form the menu with the volume down key and press the power button to confirm). Then, simply flash the su.zip from within recover.
**This all assumes you have a custom recovery image such as Amon RA.
I haven't come across a clear cut way to root GRI40 without the use of custom recovery.

You can find stock (FRG83G) rooted and unrooted images from dsixda here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=927935
This of course assumes you have custom recovery/unlocked bootloader.
If not, you can follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11618802&postcount=972

Not using a custom recovery so can't do the idea listed here. As for downgrading and then upgrading, it's probably the only solution but I think I'll wait for GINGERBREAK

thx, seems i will wait until GINGERBREAK
do i need to unlock to use custom recovery? i have stock version, dont wonna unlock it

You could follow the instructions in this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11626567&postcount=70 ) thread if you want root, but don't want to unlock bootloader.
More detailed info avaliable here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931865

This has fastboot commands which means the bootloader has to be unlocked...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Code:
fastboot oem unlock

Having an unlocked bootloader since minute 5, I am guessing here.
But couldn't you downgrade with passimg and then reroot the same way you did previously, install CW recovery, and then upgrade to one of the rooted GRI40 builds?

You will have a padlock icon on your 'X' screen if you have unlocked the bootloader successfully. To check whether or not you have root access, open up a terminal from the phone and type su. If it asks for root access and you click allow, you should see a # sign. If it doesn't give you a # sign, you aren't rooted.

Thanks Brownbay this su.zip worked for me..
1. Had a rooted 2.2.2 before
2. Update to 2.3.3 and my root is gone
3. Tried manual rooting steps for Froyo didn't work out
4. Downloaded this su.zip file
5. In my 2.3.3 used Superboot to flash Amon RA recovery while I was in Fastboot(shutdown and then Trackball+power). For some reason wasnt able to flash when the phone is powered on and in normal working mode.
6. Select su.zip for update
7. Reboot after finish, Installed Titanium backup again and tested working fine...
Great now I will have all the fun again

Hi, this is interesting, could you please elaborate more on the above steps?

It's called "Install custom recovery, guide for unlocked bootloader", and then "flash a SU file through custom recovery".
Guides in Wiki.
People, have a look before asking!!

1. Download Superboot and extract to your system(mine c:\superboot)
2. Download Amon RA-Passion recovery image and place it in the superboot folder
3. Shutdown you phone, reboot pby pressing Trackball+Power button
4. In you computer open command prompt and gotto c:\superboot
5. Type "fastboot-youros flash recovery your-ra.img-filename"
6. It will upload and once said done disconnect you phone from computer
7. Select Bootloader and Recovery
8. Now select update zip and select the SU.zip and update

Have you guys tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736271
It worked on Eclair but probably not in GB.
I flashed an old Eclair rom, rooted, installed Rom Manager, Clockwork, and back to CM7.

call me a little crazy but I rooted last night using modaco's superboot. Yes, I know there is no version for GRI40 yet, but i just used the one for FRG83D. It hung on first boot and had to issue an adb reboot command to get it to boot, but everything seems fine after that. And it rooted successfully

Does anybody know if Hboot 2.0 can be unlocked though HTCDev website?

Unlocked 2.00.0000 via HTCDEV today. It's ok, i've installed recovery using image from 4ext, using next command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img,
and then successfully installed root from this recovery.
But there is some changes in this HBOOT and i can't install any custom rom via this recovery. And recovery does not update using 4extRecoveryUpdater, only using fastboot.
Now i have UNLOCKED HBOOT 2.00.0000, 4EXT Recovery Touch (i've backupd my off ROM and it can be restored if any problems - that works), Superuser app.

Does this new hboot allow you to flash the boot/recovery partitions from recovery? It's really annoying how 1.16 doesn't allow you to do that as I wouldn't have had a reason to downgrade and S-OFF if it unlocked everything properly.

If someone with locked boot 2 could try my downgrade guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1373697 and report back if there's any problems it would be very helpful in creating a workaround if it's necessary.

You should flash CWM or 4EXTRecovery to flash superuser binary and the apk file. Then use adb to copy the misc_version to /data/local/tmp and run it.

HTC One original rom on root device update problem

...guys I was looking around, but couldn't find answer for my little problem. I have rooted HTC One, but rom is stock (didn't plan to change it at all just needed root), but the problem is today a new update came up, and when I tried to install it, it simple didn't do anything.
I go on Install now, phone restarts in recovery mode, then it gives me Installation aborted, and I have 3 thingies, - No; - Yes - Disable recovery flash: - +++++Go Back+++++
Whatever I choose, it just restarts and asks again for same recovery. What shall I do?
In console stands this:
ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.3.4

So I need to flash stock recovery, then to lock bootloader, and then I guess I'm good to go!?!
Can I flash it from custom recovery, or do I need to flash it differently? Anyone has link for it, or are all stock recoveries same (I mean from different providers)?
Thanks

You need to install stock recovery using fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Install stock recovery like I said above, once done type the following :- "fastboot oem lock"
You should be good to go then for the update. Re-locking your bootloader doesn't wipe your files either, only unlocking wipes the internal storage.

...OK, so here is what I did. From ADB restored the original recovery.img, then lock bootloader, and viola. Thanks guys for helping me out.

Edit: ...I forgot to uninstall SuperSU, and now I have a shortcut in apps and it cannot be removed. When I run it, phone says: "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a Problem!" ...lolz me, what to do?

What is all this about S-Off and HTCDev ... You unlock your bootloader through HTCDev, S-Off is NOT something that can be done any other way than Revone and Moonshine and NOT on Hboot 1.54 ... Yet.
I've seen several people mention S-Off and HTCDev in the same breath and I think some of you are getting it all mixed up. Unlocking the bootloader and going S-Off are not the same thing and only unlocking the bootloader can be done through the HTCDev website.
I'm pretty sure HTC aren't going to help you remove the security from your device.

Lads,
Would someone give me a hand here please.
There is a major update for HTC One.
I've flashed original recovery and locked back the phone.
Now it's downloading the update, then goes into reboot and opens fastboot bootloader, instead of installing the update.
What am i doing wrong here?
Thanks in advances

Hi,
I have the same problem as OP.
However the instructions in the replies are terribly confusing, I don't even know where to start!
Someone could do a step-by-step summary for less expert (or just android-retarded) people ?
Thanks a lot!

further to my post above

You need to be on stock recovery. Figure that out and you should be good.

Looking at the various guides somehow related to stock recovery doesn't make sense to me.
There's too many things I am not aware of such as how to flash the stock recovery, if the process will wipe all data, what is a fastboot command etc. etc. Has anybody ever created an easy guide to assess the problem?

For the sake of common knowledge and in case it may help other unknowing people like me, I'll post what I did here:
I sort of mixed these two guides: this one and this.
Premise:
A. It was impossible to make this whole thing run on my Win8.1 x64 computer. It would never recognize my Fastboot USB device plugged in. I had to use bloody WINXP x86 on my old-ass netbook....
B. Somehow I still had my fastboot/adb compiled folder that I used back in time to root my HTC at first.
C. My phone was Tampered, Unlocked, with HBOOT (i think 1.44 ?) and most definitely S-OFF I would say ? Still don't know for sure.
D. I updated from 4.1.2 through 4.2 to 4.3.
At the 4.2 upgrade the phone went on black screen twice (1st time at ~25%, and 2nd time after 100% was complete). Panic is useless in that case. I went to the bathroom, blasted the strongest lights I had and exposing the phone to the lights, I pressed the power button til the capacitative buttons blinked. After a while the phone rebooted and resumed exactly from the point it blacked out before.
The update to 4.3 went smooth as oil instead.
This is each step I did, following the quoted guides above:
1. Extract the stock recovery file (should be .img) that can be found in the OTA update firmware.zip file, in the firmware package (in some other thread it's explained the path of this file). Place the file in the folder with your fastboot commands.
2. Make sure fastboot and USB Debugging are unchecked on your phone in power settings>fastboot.
3. Power down phone by holding power button and pressing shut down.
4. Once phone is shut down, power phone into bootloader by holding volume down button and pressing power button.
5. Once in the bootloader navigate until it says fastboot usb (must have phone connected to computer).
6. Open up a command prompt where your fastboot commands are located.
7. Type the following with the filename of the stock recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>
8. Navigate in the bootloader menu to the reboot option to restart your phone.
9. Download the latest SuperSU and place it on your sdcard.
10. Perform the OTA update normally.
11. Once it finishes installing, power down the phone like before and get back to fastboot usb.
12. Flash back the custom recovery using fastboot (I used latest CWM available):
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>
or
Code:
fastboot flash zip <recovery>.zip
13. Then type :
Code:
fastboot reboot
14. Enter recovery by navigating with the volume buttons. Once in recovery, flash the zip of the SuperSU file you previously downloaded.
15. Restart once flashing is complete.

Personally I prefer TWRP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173870
Download this to your adb folder. Once you have unlocked your bootloader, fastboot will work.
Plug your mobile into your pc.
Type
adb devices.
You should see the adb server start up then a serial number of your device.
Then type
adb reboot bootloader (wait a bit for the fastbootusb on the phone to show)
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img
This will flash the recovery. Boot into the recovery. When you choose to reboot, select system and it will give you an option to install su.

You can always use TWRP first to get root, then load up CMW for rumrunner. I have used revone in the past (also got a One s-offed with JCard) so I havnt used rumrunner.
If you need CMW after TWRP then just repeat the instructions above but use the CMW file name instead. You wont need to re root.

Well the only other device I have rooted was my Samsung note 1 which was pretty simple. Well I didn't no bit when you first reboot from cwm recovery it says yes to gain root access which I did just need to add supersu which came with rumrunner. Which I sorted tonight just had problems with my laptop and adb not recognizing after testing adb devices.

[Q] Need some help rooting my HTC One M7

Hello,
in the near future I will try to unlock and root my international HTC One M7. Because I don't have many experiance with rooting (so far I have rooted only one phone (HTC Desire Z) a few years ago) I would apriciate some help and tips.
I have seen some nice video tutorials how to unlock and root HTC M7 on xda website:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/#root
The only problem is that these videos seems quite old and I don't know if procedure is still the same on newer versions of HTC One software? Currently I am running stock Sense software (Android 4.4.3, Sense version 6.0, Software number: 6.09.401.11)
Please tell me if I can follow these video tutorials to root my One even thou I am running newer software and if not which rooting procedure do you recomend for me?
Thanks in advance!

If you are 100% stock at the moment then wait for the Lollipop update which should come to your phone very very soon, because once you root, the update will fail, due to unlocking the bootloader which resets the phone and also deletes the data / preload folder required to update.
However to root, just unlock your bootloader at HTCDev, during the process it will give you sone ADB and fastboot files, keep these, you will need them, then flash TWRP recovery, enter recovery, exit recovery, it will ask you if you want to root before exiting, say yes, when the phone reboots, open SuperSU to update your binary, done.

Thanks!
One more question. Do I have to toggle S-ON to S-Off if i Want to install costum ROMs and kernel?

no, and never toggle, s-off costs $25 using sunshine s-off tool, and if you decide to go that way, never ever s-on again unless for waranty purposes.

Unlock your bootloader: follow instructions from htcdev.com/bootloader
Flash TWRP recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>.zip
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then boot in TWRP and flash the latest supersu zip from TWRP recovery

the twrp recovery downloads as a .img file
:crying:
am I using the correct download, the
C:\Android>fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0.2-m7.img
error: cannot load 'twrp-3.0.0.2-m7.img'

the twrp file (yes its a .img file) must be in the same folder where you have adb.exe and fastboot.exe installed on your computer.
"Error: cannot load" = I can't (fastboot) find the file you're talking about
most probable causes:
File not in the right folder
Typo in the file name

I have been distracted..... it has flashed the twrp img file.
how do I
"3. Then boot in TWRP and flash the latest supersu zip from TWRP recovery"
I have the supersu.zip file saved in the same folder on PC.
thankyou for your time and patience alray

You need to transfer SuperSu.zip to your phone. Then reboot to TWRP recovery and flash the file. Reboot, and you're rooted
