Hello, as you can probbaly tell I'm a pretty big noob to all of this, rooting, this website etc...
I have looked for other threads about this problem but havent found any, I'm posting this in roughly the right place, I hope.
Anyway I was rooting my phone with this method, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818502, from what I saw it was pretty full proof. As I ran the root program in the command prompt my phone was ment to reboot but It hasn't it has just been sat on home screen and the command prompt script is just sat saying:
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
It has been sat like this for good half an hour, there wasn't anything saying how long it should take and I'm getting worried, I don't want to manually re-boot it, in fear thta I wil brick my device.
Any help would be great, even a link to a more helpfull thread would be great, thanks.
PS. Sorry if I'm being a completer noob or anything...
have you enabled USB debugging? Looks like adb isnt seeing your device.

1: don't type in all caps. nobody likes being yelled at.
2: you started another thread for something that you've asked several times? not cool.
3: people on here have been extremely helpful for you, but you start a new thread every time you don't get an answer after an hour of waiting. not how it works.
4: people may be getting upset with you because you're not being a particularly pleasant person either.

Hi! Just to share what happened to me recently.
My Legend is now sent to service. Don't know exactly what went wrong, but anyways.. I rooted it a couple of weeks ago. Been installing and trying out some ROMs ju find "the one" for me (I'm not new to this, been using rooted Magic and Hero earlier). Finally, I installed a ROM with busybox..so far so good. Then I rebooted my phone - FAIL! It didn't wake up again!
Finally I managed to reinstall a ROM by running "step1" from unlockr's "how to root a legend"-Guide.. But the phone complained about me removing the SD-card. Figured, maybe it was because of unlockr's (Pauls??) testimage, so i ran the official RUU 1.31 and it installed fine (it didn't before). But no, sd-card was still "removed". tried a secont sd-card, same problem. Bought a new 16GB Class 10 card (previous cards were 2GB/8GB class 4) - No go. So - the conclusion is - my sd-card reader is gone. Not to worry, warranty will take care of it - but has this happened to others? If it has, maybe busybox isn't such a great idea on the legend for now.
Hi, nothing wrong with your phone, just an glitch in software that controls usb.

Oh, thanks.. then maybe I should try it before I send it in I actually read the posts before, but I didn't get how to hexedit the file :s I need the how-to for dummies maybe you can help me with that part?
Edit: I can try this later, need to re-root my phone first.. I have my goldcard at home, I'll do it later tonight (I get off work in 6 hours). I'd appreciate if you could help me with the hexedit thou. Now I get "INFOCID is HTC__Y13"
Edit2: since I no longer have root, is it even possible to root the pgone with the sd-controller disabled? :s
Edit3: This is gonna be a loooong post. sorted out the hexedit anyway, I'll se what I can manage :9 Thanks
Problem solved! Thank you for your help! Got back root, now it's just the flashing part left The problem was, I couldn't see my Sd card - at all. but that was easily fixed with the help of this forum! You're great!
I´m glad to help

I'm currently running SW Version VS910ZV4. As I was trying to root my phone, a new SW Version tried to start and download. I put it off for another two hours, hoping I could get my phone rooted before that.
Is there any program/method for rooting with the newest software?
The whole reason for me wanting to root my phone was to be able to use the 4G Hotspot. I'm still on the unlimited data plan and would like to be able to use my laptop anywhere with my phone....especially at work.
Is there another way to use the hotspot without rooting your phone? If so, I might go that method.

Yes, I installed them from the PDA.net website.
your using the wrong superone click
go to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
now go to the bottom of the post and download superoneclick 1.7
this should get you rooted
make sure you have usb debugging checked. the correct drivers installed for your machine. if on a desktop try putting the usb in the back of your tower
report back with results
Will do....right now I'm running SuperOneClick version 1.7 like you suggested instead of the newer version. I'll just show you what I've got so far. I've been waiting on this screen for about 3-4 minutes now...

Thanks, I'm going to have to give this a try later tonight. I think I just opened a can of worms though.....last night while I was sleeping, the phone upgraded to the newer version. I'm going to have to read the thread where it gets you back to a previous version so I can root it.
Hello again people
Ok we know there are a ton of phones with 0% battery issue after downgrade from 2.3.4 and root
Apparently is not software related problem since I already try to:
Flash a lot of different firmwares - Doesn't work
Fix the bootloader - Doesn't work
Repair trim area (working trim area from another phone and restore security backups) - Doesn't work
So now the dev of setool is search for a solution for whis annoying problem.
Update 1
Anyone with an Arc with this problem who wants to try a full trim area repair please contact me.
This process is simple:
1. First we need to backup your security units from original Trim Area.
2. Format trim area and write a backup from another working phone.
3. Restore your original security backup.
Please anyone with an Arc 0% battery issue send me a pm.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Please all users with this problem who want to help to this:
1. Download the rar attached.
2. Unpack it and double click to execute.bat
This file just is a command "adb shell dmesg > log_output.txt"
3. Post that log_output.txt file , don't forget to say the model of the phone
For now this can help to identify the problem. Only post logs with 0% battery problem please
Thanks in advance
here is the attached output file
one of the suspects that someone pointed at is
[ 5.085205] Please check boot accessing charger (want 0x50, got 0xac) ***

Hello all,
I am very new to the community of rooting and am completely lost. A friend of mine gave me this dell streak 7 because someone gave it to him and he was never able to get it to work. I am stuck at "Starting Fastboot USB download protocol" If someone would possibly explain how I might go about fixing this and using it with it's maximum potential I would appreciate it very much. Now although I am very tech savvy I don't have the slightest clue about rooting or loading custom roms so I will have to be talked to like a child until I get comfortable. As of now I have connected the streak to my computer but have yet to have it recognized. That's pretty much as far as I have gotten. I do have a 32gb SD card as well if it needs to be used in the process somehow.
Thanks for all everyone's time and help

Your not stuck, it's just waiting for you to use the Fastboot command from your PC. Open the little side door, insert a small paperclip into the small hole to reboot normally if it will.

ok so, while waiting for a response from someone on here I was playing around with it and realized that the first step i was missing was getting the computer to recognize the tablet. I never had the correct drivers installed and I was having a hard time getting windows to recognize the drivers.
Anyway I am finally able to get the drivers into windows and now I am able to control the device from the command prompt on the computer.
What is my next step? how do i load the rom into the device ? and which one is the best to use for this one ?
I'm thinking the last person who had this device messed it up very badly and now all it wants to do is go into fasboot mode nothing else, i thought I had installed the (Clockwork mod recovery.img) S7-6.0.1.2.img into the recovery using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334487,
After i do that I says done. but nothing happens on the device after is says "Flashing StorMgr partition recovery"
sending 'recovery' (4742 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.525s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.543s

You have your choice. You can use HoneyStreak ROM's by DJ_Steve, which are completed (Honeycomb Android 3.2)
You can run my CM10.1 (Android 4.2.1)

Basics of flashing:
Thank you. I will look at these and hopefully it will clear some things up. The problem is that my situation is unique I think. I don't know if maybe i have a broken button or the person who gave it to me really messed it up but all it does is boot into fastboot automatically, although I can get it into NVFLASH mode i don't know what these modes do. Are they both able to flash the system so I can use the device? If so do some files work in one that don't work in the other?
I tried putting the device in NVFlash mode caus I want to put the CM10.1 FW on it, am I headed in the right direction ? The only things that I can launch are "Install JB_Alpha_E.bat" and "NVFLASH.exe" running the Install_JB one opens the command prompt and it looks like it is doing something which is how it looks in the video but then suddenly after it processes some files the command prompt window just closes, am I doing something wrong ?

So because the cmd prompt closes so fast I cannot see the error, so I took a video and paused i played it until it froze right where the message came up.
Here is what it says if failes right after creating partitions blah blah blah

Sorry I seem so dense when it comes to this stuff, I really don't know android stuff that well.
I looked back and maybe I'm missing what you are saying but I already have the device in NV mode and have the drivers installed if that is what you were talking about.
Now it's just the crashing problem that i'm having. Any ideas? or am I still doing it wrong?

Sorry, at the time I had posted that you were still working with fastboot.
Do you have the drivers installed and in device manager it states that it sees "nvidia recovery" ?
Hard reset with a push pin, go back into NVFLASH mode again, and run the batch file again. If it fails, you hvae to do this step every time.

Yes I am in NVflash mode, I have done the pin press and retried several times each time it the cmd closes and i assume it is getting that error.

I forgot to mention that I did also install the drivers using the nvidia package like the tutorials stated. That all went fine.
Ps. Ignore the play button the the picture, it's just a screen cap of my phone paused on the frame.

As far as dell goes, is it something that they will fix or do they consider the warranty void because of whatever was done to it to make it like that?

Actually he did tell us how to do it, it was just 1 in a million chance it works.
