Help?

Hello,

I think I'm having trouble with this. The reason I'm not 100% sure is because I can get Superuser to work, and MSL Reader and Barnacle tether to work, but the last task in terminal doesn't seem to work right. Looking at what it says, maybe it didn't work as well as I thought.

Here's what it says: http://pastebin.com/vd8PWWVq

These are things I've done:

Rebooted the phone (EVO 3D)

Exited HTC Sync

Updated the adb server

Copied the .zip folder into a normal folder on my desktop, and ran Run_ME_Fr3vo_ROOT from there

Also, the step "Please Turn off screen and count to 10 or 15

before pressing enter to Continue", is that referring to the computer screen? Phone screen? Kinda lost there as well.

Any help or questions I can answer would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

insmod: init_module '/data/local/tmp/8x60_oc.ko' failed (Exec format error)

perhaps you didn't do the ota?

that is referring to phone screen, I always have my screen off when doing any adb work.
[HTC EVO 3D] Excrucibo:
Ok, Thanks for this. I haven't installed any OTAs, so that's probably the reason.
[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
I included the .ko that works for the OTA.. Just download the pre-ota .ko & place into folder & you will be fine to run again.

Right_Click on Computer >

Left_Click on Advance System Settings >

Left_Click on Environment Variables >

Left_Click on New ( User Variables ) >

Variables Name: ADB ( Or anything you want )

Variables Value: ;C:\SDK\tools ( Just like this, This is the Path of my adb.exe )

You must put ; in place of C:\ ( adb Path goes here / Variables Value: )

That's it.. You now have set up adb to work Global via cmd prompt on win7

Still not working

Alright, I've taken the OTA, and everything is up to date, yet it still isn't working.

This is what I get: http://pastebin.com/PvPWY8iA saying "insmod: init_module '/data/local/tmp/8x60_oc.ko' failed (File exists)"

I'll keep screwing around...
[HTC EVO 3D] TinkerDude:
@Tiffany84: If you have not decided to take the OTA, you can download the original tool for Pre-OTA from coolbho3000's thread, rename the 8x60_oc_g93c03bf.ko file to just 8x60_oc.ko then copy it over the file in your Fre3vo_EVO_3D folder. You can then run the existing script without modification.
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
hey thanks for the reply man....unforuneately im still getting the error....been like that all day and driving me crazy LOL.....i did make a new path like u said and just the way u typed it.....not sure what the hell is going on tho....heres the error in FULL if it helps any

"adb is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"

Sorry guy.....i know this is a pain in the ass.....but considering all the searching and what not, i had no choice but to as u guys LOL.....but im sure ill figure it out eventually......thnaks
[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
That should & will work... Sounds like you have bigger issues at hand.. is the SDK installed?
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
Are you sure adb is in /tools/? I had to re-install the SDK on my computer and now adb is in /Platform-tools/
[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
Good eye!!

I forgot about this & moved my adb ( Copy/Paste ) into my tools directory.
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
yup!!.....SDk is installed and i re-installed the SDK a few times today and "ADB" is in platforms/tools........i did add the new path to "user variable" also.....
[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
If you did all that, there is no reason why it would work..

cheating way is to copy the exe and the needed dll's to system32
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
wait wait wait......i just seen the ADB HAS MOVED in one of the forlder and it saios to update the PATH enviroment...(the System Variable)..to platform/tools.......i know one of u guys just mentioned it.....so i re-ran the script and it started toi say DAEMON started......scanned thru a bunch of things and ask me to continue.......am i on the right path now where i can press any key to continue?
[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
YOU GOT IT!!!!!! :eek::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
alright imma hit the button now....seriously, thanks for the help guys.......THANKS's ALL AROUND

**only thing, and this really isnt a big deal to me considering i dont use it much, but when i go to open the SDK i get an error because i changed the path.......**
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
OHH NO.....error again...LOL.....i know im killing u guys by now....."cant open '/data/local/tmp/8x60_oc.ko'

what did i do this time
[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
is the error insmod?
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
yes sir it is.....

adb shell ismod /data/local/tmp/8x60_oc.ko scpll_l_va 1=32 vdd_uv=1320000

insmod" cant open '/data/local/tmp/8x60_oc.ko
[HTC EVO 3D] Excrucibo:
Same here!

This is what I got:

C:\Users\Aubrey & Andreas\Desktop\New Folder>adb shell insmod /data/local/tmp/8x

60_oc.ko scpll_l_val=32 vdd_uv=1320000

insmod: init_module '/data/local/tmp/8x60_oc.ko' failed (File exists)

C:\Users\Aubrey & Andreas\Desktop\New Folder>pause

Press any key to continue . . .
[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
try the other .ko in the overclocking thread & edit the .bat file for the name.

regarding the file exists, don't worry about it.. only worry if it fails on insmod...
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
hey man.....i dont wanna sound like a **** here at all LOL.....i ran "wisfire's" seeing that he uses yur temp root as well.....and it worked perfectly......it was prolly me doing something wrong the whole time....i dunno....but i really appreciate the help man,......100%......
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:

thats the same error that i kept getting when i was trying to run eugene's bat. file......i dunno.....im not extremely familiar with scripts and adb...neva need to use it before....but i look at it this way....i can run my root apps.....that im happy with.....but if there is a fix or any other suggestions....im all ears......i appreciate the help bro
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
if this helps any.....when i click on the overclock bat file......the message i get right above where it says press any key to continue.........it says

[HTC EVO 3D] USSENTERNCC1701E:
@reverepats Well it looks like these pros got you squared away... Good thing too, as drunk as I am right now it's a wonder I can use my phone, lol, good times
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
HAHA right on......yeah it was a good thing i talked to the right peeps.......things are going great....even barnacles is running great......thanks alot man
[HTC EVO 3D] Tiffany84:
So i set the value to 28 which is 1512mhz but should I leave the uv at 1320000 or would setting it at 1250000 be better? I'm not wanting to push it to much but I don't know a whole lot about undervolting. Thanks for any help. Also, thank u to TinkerDude for telling me about just renaming and replacing the module from the pre ota method. I appreciate it.
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
I don't know if this has any relevance but after a reboot, although I lost su, the apps I uninstalled and froze are still gone, they didn't come back, I thought that was interesting, anyone have a repeat occurence?

Need some root help. (titainum backup)

I have tried a few different scripts and so far I like the layout of this the best. However I am having a problem. (Windows Script)

I followed the instruction and it seems to have worked. In adb shell I have a # prompt. Also root explorer and ES FileExplorer both work with root options. However I cannot get titainum backup to work. Keeps erroring at startup "Sorry could not aquire root priv".

I have changed to this script since I had the same problem trying another.

Any help appriceated.

[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
ok so im reading the first post

no where in here does it say we need ADB or the SDK

but i assume we need it?

where are the instructions prior to this post that explains how to get these things that are needed but arent mentioned in this post?
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
Worked great for me out of the box! I already had SuperUser installed so that part failed, but still worked overall!

Quick question--so overclocking gets pushed into this somehow? Is it a new installed app I missed or something?

I installed set cpu and it runs fine, but I'm wondering about the Overclock .ko that got pushed....

...THANKS!!!

(barnacle works great too!)
[HTC EVO 3D] Tiffany84:
That's a kernel module that allows for over clocking. If u didn't have it u couldn't use set-cpu to overclock
[HTC EVO 3D] Tiffany84:
Adb is already in the zip. Just run the bat and you'll be good.

[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
the other guy says its included in the zip, and all i have to do is click the .bat file

so 1) do i still need to read up on ADB? and 2) do i need to have it installed first before I run the .bat?

or can i just skip all that and just run the .bat file?
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
You still have to have the ADB drivers installed, and it's a good idea to install and familiarize yourself with ADB anyways.....In the future it could be the only way to recover your phone after a mistake flashing a rom or having your recovery go bad. It's our most important tool when playing around with an unlocked phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] -eVo-:
This is awesome, all root apps work, including bloat freezer! Now just gotta wait for recovery and roms. Even overclock with set cpu works! Gotta love that dont even have to run batch file after every restart anymore.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tiffany84:
So we don't have to re-run the bat after a reboot anymore?
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
huh ? i was under the impression that a reboot undid everything
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
i do have 1 problem with the script ... after i reboot my phone and go to run it again . everything loads fine but when it gets to installing or skipping superuser.apk it hangs wont install the OC file nothing past that but i still have the temp root
[HTC EVO 3D] Tiffany84:
Can u still oc with set-cpu?
[HTC EVO 3D] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Yeah, you'll get an error because SU is already installed. You can use J.eremy's script to uninstall it, then run the root.
[HTC EVO 3D] lowetax:
+1

if you get htc sync working, then you have the proper drivers.

then uninstall htc sync.
[HTC EVO 3D] lowetax:
eugene373 - thanks for this !

i think i ran this before you made final changes to script

(around 5 pm yesterday)

anyway ... my setcpu gives me 1188 or 1728,

but nothing in between ?

i'm a total setcpu noob,

so do i have to add other lines in the script,

or do something else to get other available max settings

in between those two levels ?

also - has anyone gone beyong the 1728 with the 3d ?

and lived to tell about it !

thanks again !

EDIT: i always uninstall superuser before rebooting and re-running script
[HTC EVO 3D] TinkerDude:
I'm no dev,but as I understand it, the kernel includes a clock speed/voltage table that gives all the selectable steps you will see in SetCPU. The LKM we are using only redefines the max. All the steps 1188 and below are from the native kernel and we won't see intermediate steps until we can flash a full kernel.

p.s. I haven't been stable above 1728 either.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I've been able to run 35 @1450mv for a while. It froze after some emulator usage on performance governor.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Just wanted to say I've now switched to this method as my preferred root method so I wanted to say THANK YOU with more than just a thumbs up! For me, this method is the only one that retains full root after charging overnight without losing some aspect of root. I'm not interested in the overclocking so I took that part out and I also created a "redo" batch file that doesn't try to keep installing Terminal and Super User every time but that was easy to do with the materials provided.

Thanks again. This makes temp root usable.

[HTC EVO 3D] :
couple questions:

1. What exactly has changed in the boot init/rc files? I see this pushes default.prop, init.shooter.rc, and init.rc can we get a list of the modifications to those files? is there a way to undo changes to those files if you want to "unroot" after using this method? Does a reboot revert them back to the default stock versions?

2. can anyone confirm that wifi tether actually works with this rooting method? I am reading that you can get it working from this post: http://therootofallevo.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=100 however I am skeptical because I have tried several rooting scripts so far and each one seems a bit different as far as what works and what does not work but wifi tether has never worked for me and i do not like barnacle

TIA :D

[HTC EVO 3D] eugene373:
okay.. So I found the Problem.. If you Mount anything as R/O after running the exploit more-less you might as well reboot & start over!

Don't remount /system as R/O as this disables Perma-Temp Root Completely

wifi-tether works great, any changes made to any file will be lost on reboot, so you will be unrooted the second you restart your phone.

[HTC EVO 3D] TinkerDude:
Download the pre-OTA version of the original from coolbho3000, rename the 8x60_oc_g93c03bf.ko file to 8x60_oc.ko and copy it over the file in your Fre3vo_EVO_3D directory. Working fine on my pre-OTA 3D.

For the people that haven't taken the Ota. Download that and unzip it. Delete the 8x60_oc.ko that is in Eugene's zip and copy and paste the one that's in the zip I attached. Then just follow the instructions like normal.
[HTC EVO 3D] ridleyj329:
I'm totally confused. I thought the point of this "perma-temp" root was so that it sticks after rebooting even if we dont have S-OFF yet. either way, does any know if there is a way to run any of this directly from the phone? like from the terminal emulator? i'm just curious what others do when they cant make it to a computer
[HTC EVO 3D] Tiffany84:
It's not possible to run through the phone with a terminal. It doesn't have the correct privileges. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
[HTC EVO 3D] lowetax:
I believe you are correct Tiffany -

as things currently stand.

how can I confirm what mhz I'm at, besides what setcpu indicates ?
[HTC EVO 3D] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Oddly and uselessly, you can run the exploit from terminal if it is su first. I just tried to work out something with gscript, no go. From the looks of it the Fre3vo tool would need to be rewritten to run from the device, and that's more ambitious than I
[HTC EVO 3D] lowetax:
did you fully root your prior phone without being connected to a computer ONCE ?

its the same here - for now.

but temporary.

you have root until you reboot.

sounds like a quote from mohammed ali.

so you don't need computer again.

EDIT: although I know a temp root via an app is being worked on (no computer).

I got Temp Root but can't get Barnacle to successfully connect to my laptop, says can't get a valid DNS, or something. I have superuser permission.

It seems after the new update, the tool does not work anymore.

I rooted my phone on Friday using the file that was there then. Today my battery died. So I re-downloaded the new file in OP. Tried 3 times and DOES NOT ROOT anymore.
[HTC EVO 3D] lowetax:
did you delete superuser before running it again ?

i've run each of the 3 times eugene has updated it

and works fine
[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
No, I did not delete the SU the first 2 times.

I did the 3rd time and it was same results.

I have the old file (before the update) backed up on my computer somewhere. I will try that again and hopefully it works.

Will post results later. Also I, now, tried 4 times with the new update and it did not work for me. =[

UPDATE:

I tried the old file that I had and it worked flawlessly the first time.

Question: Could it be the USB cord?? Because I was using NexusS4g's before.

Adfree: Requires a reboot to clear DNS which breaks root so ads are never removed.

[HTC EVO 3D] Neogenx:
In order to run this, you should have not done any of the Sprint updates correct? Much like other phones? Or does it not matter if you've done their updates or not?
[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
Apparently it still works even if you HAVE done their updates, however it'd still be a good idea NOT to update because:

The devs who are working on obtaining root are working on the current version. So who knows what HTC patched up in the update. From what I think.. HTC might have messed up on SOMETHING big to release an update SO quick.
