[LG Revolution] Clarkkent434:
This style of root uses rageagainstthecage exploit which is old and very easily can be patched. Do research on Rootwiki to find this out. I expected Verizon to patch this root very soon. I quite surprised that they waited this long. A psneuter exploit is another Froyo exploit and is harder to patch. Super One Click root can use psneuter exploit but has to be manual set for it. Which is not by default. Revolutionary use this but is for HTC device only.

i should have trusted my instincts when rooting my buddies revo, but tried S1C anyways. Noghing but 2hrs of headaches...

Threw the files into my adb folder and rooted in 5mins via rage and adb.

Thanks so much
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
I have the same pre-update firmware which should be rootable. But I'm getting hung up at the same point-- I get the $ shell prompt and none of the fixes in the OP allow me to get to the # prompt. If I try to run su from the shell prompt I get "permission denied." If I try to run "adb root" I get the dreaded "adbd cannot run as root in production builds". Any help to get over this hurdle is much appreciated! Is there a psneuter exploit for the Revo that I can try? I have not succeeded in finding one.

adb usb didn't work?

Sent from 1885
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
Well, it works to the extent that I get "restarting in usb mode" or words to that effect, but then doing adb root still gives the error message about not working with production releases or whatever.
[LG Revolution] stetsonaw:
Right, after adb usb, type adb shell and you should be good to go.

Sent from 1885
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
No, unfortunately that still leaves me with a $ prompt and trying "su" at that point just gets me a "permission denied". I wondered if that meant su did not have permission to execute (I don't know *nix and don't have all the permissions memorized) so I tried "adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/temp/su" but still get "permission denied".
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Are you positive that you are running v4 firmware and not V6. I, for kicks, went through this on a v6 phone and that is exactly where it fails. You cannot run the su because you get permissions denied no matter what.

Verify that your phone is v4 firmware in about phone, your build number should be VS910ZV4, if it says VS910ZV6, then you will have to down grade the firmware to make it work.
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
Yes, I actually have 2 Revo's, one v4 and one v6. I am doing all this on the v4 phone.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Should be getting my Revo today!!! Super excited coming from a OG Droid. Made a couple ROMs for the HTC Eris and am currently building for the OG Droid as well. I understand that this method doesn't work with the v6 update unless you downgrade first. Anyone have a link for downgrading in case my Revo has the update on it? Also, I haven't been able to find much on development for the Revo as in ROMs, Recoveries or anything else for that matter. If I can get this beast rooted when I get it today, I might just have to take a run at making a build for this as well. Sitting here like a little kid just waiting on FedEx to get here lol.

Welcome to the fun :P

From my "I tossed my Crap, Revolted and moved out of my Home." VS910ZV6
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Got it a few hours ago and luckily it has the v4 version. Tried to make me download the system update but I cancelled it. Getting ready to root now, hopefully this goes without error.
[LG Revolution] K0G:
Great :)

I tossed my Crap, Revolted and moved out of my Home.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Worked like a charm! Thanks for the links, getting ready to get recovery now and soon will be bloatware free!

So far this whole process has been completely painless which is very nice! Now rooted with CWM. Currently making a nandroid *just in case* lol. Sucks that no one has an actual ROM done yet (except for the stock ones). Guess I'll just stick with ADW or Theme Chooser themes.
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
Is there any reason that running an older version of adb would make a difference? I currently have SDK Tools rev. 10 and Platform Tools rev. 3, both of which are a few version back. I opened the SDK manager to update, and then I remembered that ever since first installing it, I have not been able to update anything-- each file it tries to download give an error File not found: (access is denied).

I also tried rooting from my laptop and had exactly the same issue of never getting to the # shell prompt, only the $ prompt. It has the same version of the SDK and exactly the same problem when I try to update.

I have a Samsung Charge, HTC Thunderbolt and the Revo. I really think I could get to like the LG if I could ever get it rooted, but if not I'll have to unload it. Just can't bother with an unrooted device-- might as well get an iPhone. (Kidding!!) But seriously, the suggestions are appreciated and any further ideas would be great.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Did you verify that you have the v4 build version? Have you tried the super1click method already?
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
Yes, as noted a couple messages above I have 2 Revo's, one v4 and one v6. All these attempts have been with v4. Yes, I tried Superoneclick, also without success. There seem to be some suggestions floating around about turning USB debugging on/off during the Superoneclick process which I have not tried since there didn't seem to be any coherent description of when to do it.
[LG Revolution] K0G:
Turn off/on USB debugging if Super 1 Click freezes.

I tossed my Crap, Revolted and moved out of my Home.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Instead of connecting mine as "charge only" I had to connect it as "internet connection." Maybe that helps.
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
Any suggestion as to which version of Superoneclick is best for the Revo?

Thanks.
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
Yes, I don't think adb can connect at all with the USB set to "charge only". I have no problem connecting with adb (using "internet connection"), pushing the files, running the exploit etc. The problem only comes when I do adb shell and always get the $ prompt instead of the rooted # prompt.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
I connected like that when using super1click, I didnt even try adb. The version of s1c that I used was 1.7. Went right through the process. Hope that helps.
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
I did some further experimenting with SuperOneClick 1.3 and 1.7. With 1.3, it does freeze when rage is running. Turning off USB debugging allows rage to complete; then when USB debugging is turned back on it runs rage again and freezes, and so on in a loop.

Version 1.7 is similar except turning off USB debugging and turning it back on gets the phone into a state where it can no longer be seen by SuperOneClick until the phone is rebooted.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Here's the step I did to root with s1c 1.7:

*Make sure 4G is on"

Right click s1c, run as admin

Turned USB Debugging on

Plugged the phone in and changed the connection from "mass storage" to "internet connection"

Made sure "rage" was selected, clicked root

When I did that the process ran without problem. Not sure if these are the steps you're doing or if this helps in anyway but i'm trying.
[LG Revolution] droidmark:
Thanks for trying, just for fun I followed this sequence of steps exactly but no joy. I miswrote the exact result in the earlier post above, but it happened the same as it always does with 1.7-- rage runs successfully, the adb daemon is killed and restarted, and it hangs at "waiting for device". It is at this point that the phone can no longer be seen by USB no matter what I do, until I reboot the phone.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Oh ok, sorry I can't be of more help. I only used s1c because I try to use adb as little as possible. Hopefully someone can help you out!
[LG Revolution] nelsonmanha:
guy...i' no expert I get the device connected i do all the commands getting the files on the device but when i tpe adb shell and I'm supposed to see # the only thing I see is $ . I tied su it say read only - try to exit, adb usb , devices what am I doing wrong
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
On your phone, go to the market and download "Terminal Emulator."

Open Terminal Emulator and hit the menu button and select "Toggle Soft Keyboard"

Type "su" but without the quotes.

If you get a "$" and not a "#" then you are not properly rooted.
[LG Revolution] Carbon_Rink:
So just so we are on the same page.. there is no root for V6.. not even super one click?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Correct. Not without downgrading first.
[LG Revolution] Carbon_Rink:
Is one to the factors due to lack of devs looking for the holes to get us root or is LG locking it down and closing all the holes that froyo has?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
They have locked it down pretty tight. All known exploits have been blocked.
[LG Revolution] K0G:
Good racket! Write exploit, hack ROM, post for all to enjoy and then sell VZ the exploit method. Rinse and repeat :P

Rooted but SuperUser.apk not installing Properly Please Help

I was able to root my phone with little to no issues via ADB Shell! but now I go into the market and download the SuperUser.apk..... After it is installed to comes up with an out-of-date warning and Im not geting permissions alerts for Titainum Back up and Root Checker is saying Im not rooted.... when I try to update SuperUser it fail on Gain Root Access!!!!

So Im Rooted With ADB Shell and not able to get superuser installed properly.

What I have done so far is

downgraded to VS910V4

Rooted Via ADB Method

Downloaded SuperUser (not working :( )

Factory Reset Via Power + Button and Vol Down

Ran Rooting Proccess Again (ADB)

Redownloaded SuperUser (same Issue)

Redowngraded

Ran S1C (it freezes when it goes to restart adb service)
[LG Revolution] drt054:
When you say it froze.. how long did you wait (Super1click)?

Were you using s1c v. 1.7?

Only the exploit "RageAgainstTheCage" will root v4 firmware, make sure your virus scanner is turned off when you extract the s1c files..
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Make sure when you plug your phone in to the PC that it's in "Internet Connection" mode as well.

When it get's stuck, try turrning USB Debugging off and then on really fast.
[LG Revolution] meabrams:
I let the S1C run for about 10 min did try cycling the USB Debugging on and off (after I did that it just comes up "Waiting for device") The Phone is set to the Internet Connection for the USB mode.

As for the Exploit I added to the Ignored List of my Anti-Virus also did try to run it with the Anti-Virus off failed either way...

And I know the rageagainstthecage work to gain root access I have that much done. Im able to gain access to the su via adb prompt. Just cant get the superuser.apk to play nice with me

I dont know if its an issue with Win 7.... Should I try it on the XP partion or even on the Vista machine...(they all 32bit)?

Im thinking about just trying rooting the ADB way then Pushing the CWM Recovery to the phone via adb.... my end goal is to Root n Rom it ne wayz. Unless someone has had issues with doing it that way
[LG Revolution] meabrams:
It Worked

I ended up using win XP... and I started the proccess by connecting the phone in MASS Storage mode first.... then switching over to Internet Conn the ran the S1C w/ rage and it worked.....

Thank You all for helping me

Hi there,

i have been noticing a very strange behavior in my phone these past two days...

my phone is on this firmware I9100XWKE7_CPWKD1_XXKE4 rooted with insecure kernel...

nothing fancy just regular apps

i noticed that when i call or some body called me the mic dosent work at all ...

he cant hear me

switching to speaker ... every thing is fine

rebooting --- no effect

connecting to the charger and then disconnecting the problem is gone -tested once-

Skype testing service ... the same problem the mic only work when in speaker phone

so after this i started thinking it is a software rather than firmware

any ideas ???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] balenax:
encountered the same problem with my gf's lg optimus 7. the mic was defective, there was a short circuit of some kind. had it replaced ( the mic) and everything worked good.

this is really annoying this is my 2nd phone the first one had a very loud noise on vibration

This is a bit off-topic, and I may have misunderstood your question, but this might be what you are looking to do -

1. Setup your computer in wifi adhoc sharing mode, so that any other wireless device can find that network.

2. Use your phone as the wifi device to connect to that network.

This is pretty easy - just setup a wifi network.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidsos:
Don't think that you can use the network over the usb cable it is not designed for that, may be someone else may know a bit more.

Theoretically a proxy agent app on pc should be able to do what you want above, over the usb cable, but it is better to use a wireless modem instead.

Many thanks to Chainfire for his excellent work on:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399

I have found a bug in his "root" kernel that results in an endless Samsung logo loop when using data encryption.

I installed the CF-Root v3.5/v3.6 KE7 over the latest generic XEU (GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XWKE7_I9100XXKE4_I9100XEUKD1).

So far everything was working as expected.

Finally I have set up my corporate email account (Outlook Exchange ActiveSync).

The corporate exchange server enforces Data Encryption of (SD-Card, USB storage, etc.)

Using Chainfire's "root" kernel (CF-Root v3.5 KE7) the device does not query the "boot" PIN and loops at the Samsung logo.

Installing the stock I9100XWKE7 kernel results in a "clean" boot.

Using the stock kernel the PIN query before the Samsung logo previously appeared with its background picture and after data encryption it appears without the background picture.

It look like now at boot time it has no access to the background picture and hence does not show it.

The problem is clearly connected to failing data encryption support by the CF-root kernel v3.5 and v3.6.

The boot PIN query is supported.

Does anyone have an idea of a workaround meanwhile?

Thanks,

If you have an endless loop then this is what you should do:

If you have a problem with CWM that it cannot access the medias then the "workaround" is to use an email client with deactivated exchange security policy, like:
