[How To] Temp Root

I take no credit for this, but I tried this out and was able to achieve temp-root.
Just though I'd post it till someone is able to figure out perm root. All thanks should go to Revolutionary
Hello!
We would like to announce the public availability of the root exploit we use in Revolutionary, named zergRush.
This local root exploit should be Android-wide, across Froyo (2.2) and Gingerbread (2.3). However, this will not work on Android Honeycomb and up (3.0+).
Simultaneously, we're also releasing source code for this root exploit through our github.
The binary is available from here: zergRush binary.
The exploit source is available here: Revolutionary GitHub.
Usage:
You will need adb shell to execute this exploit. We need shell permissions.
Push the binary onto /data/local/ and execute these commands in a shell:
Code:
$ chmod 755 /data/local/zergRush
$ /data/local/zergRush
The resulting output should look something like this:

Thanks for posting it...
What do you mean by temp root. Will I loose it once I reboot?

yep, reboot and u loose root

Welp, with temp root, you can kill bloatware now.
I can't wait to pick one of these bad boys up, I've wanted an HTC phone for the longest time, and with LTE, it makes it that much more desirable.

Thanks for posting this. I'm happy we have a forum so soon.

Get one of the bloatware freezers from the Market after you have temproot and SU put on the phone than you can freeze the bloatware rather than out right removing them.. The Reason to freeze them first is in case they cause FC's for some unknown reason you can unfreeze them or just reboot the phone. I mean once we have full root and all that stuff and can backup the Stock OS than removing the Apps should be no issue as you can just restore your backup but until then I would suggest doing the Freeze method. I hope HTC Left the bootloader unlocked, that would be nice for a change. Although knowing AT&T they probably made them Lock it. Also awesome to see that we already got our own spot for our awesome device phone. Looking forward to some good Roms.

Temp Root Guide for Dummies
Hey guys, I just picked up my Vivid today (in love!). I've rooted devices before, but have never used a method like this with ADB. Is there anyone that would be willing to put together a step by step tutorial for dummies on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

if you unlock the bootloader first on htcdev you can keep root, tried it and its a go

If nobody gets around to it before I get my phone in the mail, I'll see if I can put one together. A step-by-step would probably help a lot of people. The rooting method seems a lot like what I used on my Incredible S (actually, easier, since the IncS had a locked bootloader that couldn't be unlocked at htcdev.com!). Unfortunately, I ordered mine online so I could get the discount and get the white version, so I have to wait for them to ship it to me.

I tried to unlock my Vivid at the htcdev site and unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. Maybe we'll have to wait a bit until it's supported.

Love this Phone, I am going to wait for Root

I am having issues getting to Fastboot. Keeps saying win whatever not installed even though I got look in platform-tools and its sitting right there. Hmm I haven't updated in awhile, could that be it? Yea wow I didn't realize how far behind until I started update holy god lol that's what I get for not updating it within the past 3-4 months.

Not sure if others have tried, but I'm getting the dreaded CID not allowed (basically means carrier not allowing it) error...might just have to wait for someone to figure out the exploit to get it unlocked for perm-root

Either that or wait for HTC to come out for an actual Unlock for the device.

CID locked
Same for me. Oh, well.
Standing by...

I can't seem do get it to work, I must be doing something wrong.
I get through all the steps, get the root shell (#), and the ID comes back as 0 (root). That's all good.
I then install Superuser in the Market, but none of the apps I try to use can seem to get root access. They can't find an SU binary. Why would superuser install and run but there be no su binary? Any ideas on what to do?

[Q] Any one got a Verizon OTA 2 nights ago?

I got an OTA on Friday night or Saturday morning. Didn't notice any changes.
Next day, I realized I lost root. TiB says root access is denied. SuperUser is still installed, so that's not the problem. It's not even ASKING any more.
I tried running pSouza's one-click root, it failed in the third step. This was using 1.06 off Rootzwiki. I went to PSouza4's website and downloaded 1.07, and tried it again. Same thing.
Strangely my system (about phone) still says 5.5.893 (baseband CDMA_N_03.1c.57R ltdec_u_05.15.01), build number 5.5.1_84_DBN-21 so somehow I never got the 901 update. It stills says I'm on 2.3.4, but the exploit no longer works.
Any ideas?

If superuser is still installed can you go into it and check root status? Does this happen with every root app? Could you have maybe accidently denied TiB at the prompt or set Superuser to automatically deny apps? Try running rootchecker.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck

I went into SuperUser and it says TiB is still allowed. But when I run TiB it says root was denied.
Root Checker confirms: no root.
I tried 43V3R root and that failed too.

If someone can tell me what to grab I can do ADB dumps or whatever's needed.

I had that happen to me as well. Turns out for me, that on .893, the automatic script failed. Doing it using the manual guide here in the dev forum did work.

Try going into super user settings and check for an update for the binary..an outdated binary can cause the root being denied
/Droid3

You can root 5.5.893 with this. Uses the oldschool zergrush.

Thanks for the reminder. The oldschool zergrush worked.

Root [easiest way] 100% safe

First of all download the required file[http://www.mediafire.com/?8b1lt61sg3i6tu5]

[ROOT] root for VS910ZV8 and V9 without downgrade

Well i was in development today for trying to find a way to root the latest firmware from LG that locks out a lot of the phone for flashers like me who dont use VZW service ne ways i have officially achieved root on VS910ZV8 and VS910V9 without having to downgrade it. Basically I used the LG Esteem Exploit found by djrbliss the link to his blog about the esteem and the zip is attached just execute run.bat and after a few reboots enjoy root without all the extra time and effort of downgrading
http://vulnfactory.org/blog/2012/02/15/re-rooting-the-lg-esteem/

Anyone try this yet?

Nope but I just spent an hour downgrading then re-rooting then upgrading again lol! I just saw this when I refreshed the page to get Broken out. Thanks for finding this though!! I'm sure it will help a lot of people!

I did
I actually did that monday when i recieved my replacment...didnt know there was issues rooting still..iv only used that one to root sence it was posted..work'd with 0 issues for me..was teathering again in no time

Yes this works fine.

may be a dumb question, but if you root with this and leave the stock recovery on, how would you go about unrooting without flashing a .tot and removing all traces of root?
i have always used mt's unroot .bat to unroot

From what I read in the .bat all it is doing it pushing the busybox file, the su file and the superuser.apk. So essentially, all you would have to do is delete those 3 files and you should be unrooted If I'm correct.

Have you tried the autorun from the phone that has the driver install included with it or look in the system folder and pull the iso and unrar it to get the exe to run

JB OTA Forgot to Update Superuser binaries but ES File Explorer has Root

I followed the steps here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33774480
But I forgot to update the binaries... actually I did not know I had to click where I need to click in order to update the binaries. I opened SuperUser up and it never said I needed to update binaries like Supersu does. ES File Explorer and Voodoo OTA still has root. Anyway I can fix this issue?
I tried "RestoreRoot.zip" that was posted and it says:
"Have drivers installed, phone connected, and USB Debugging enabled in Develope

ok, well then, i dont think its going to work, but here what ive done... it might help
Restored with vodoo OTA rootkeeper, saying that root is back ! but not really lol
I've had es file explorer already rooted, so, i just copied the binary files and reboot ... nada ! was having root permission but was denied everytime automaticaly, so i reeponned the es file explorer, and cannont be granted for root acces
i oppened up the super user app, and unavailable to acces root doing the update ......
superuser status was : rwxr-xr-x : conflict (showed in red) -binary : ok (showed in green) - path : ok (showed in green aswell)....
So, that is probably why it wont allow me root acces to succesfully re-update the su binary trough the native way of the superuser.apk
so here what i've done....
Re-used vodoo to reset the root to the old binairies (wich is actually enough for adb to work as root), i've then changed superuser.apk permissions that was actually resseted to :rw-r-x-r-- .... <--- WTF ????
So changed that to : rwxr-xr-x and then, i copied the su binary to the corect place, and boom, voila, was able to set binary permission and use it as usual .....
So my guess is if you guys wont have root on an explorer, adb will have with the old binairies restored from vodoo, so you should be able to change permissions to the /system/app/superuser.apk to : rwxr-xr-x and see if something magic occured that will let you update via superuser.apk in a native way so you wont need to copy/paste the binary manually !
But what i find odd is that you have a permissions denied !
did you tried it with the OLD binairies in place from voodoo directly inside adb shell
if you just type adb shell : ittl go in $ and if u type su (hit enter) you should now see the lasp part of command line protocol changing to : #
Right ?
then you should be able to change permissions of the superuser app ? right ?
or am i completely lost in the dust !?
Edit : well, if you want to keep root on an old leaked, its your thing, but i would recomand THIS tutorial instead cause you have a real ROM through OTA now.... dont know if it will change anything, but i followed this one !

Partial Root Restore
I was able to restore root to my phone after the 4.1.1 update using the information in this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1911261
Basically, if you had a root backup before the update, you may still have partial root on your phone.
