Super user force closes after rooting

I had a number of issues with this on my Galaxy Note with an stock Android 2.3.6. ROM. The first was that the process only worked after the second attempt. The prompt about the companion software was never displayed at any time. Having seemingly worked I rebooted the phone and during first boot up it crashed and the phone rebooted again. Fortunately the phone then booted up OK but promptly displayed an error about inconsistent UIQ entries (or something very similar) and stated I need to clear the app. cache. Having then got past this and in to the device as normal I checked and superuser was there but it force closed when run. I tried an updated version from the market and cache fixer program. Neither helped at all. Upon running the unroot script the phone reverted to normailty and all was fine. No more boot up errors.

I also tried using a couple of versions of Z4ROOT to no avail. Just the same with constantly force closes.

At present I am at a loss as to how to root the device. Any ideas most appreciated. I would ideally perfer a method that does not rely on a PC connection.

Many thanks in advance and a happy holiday season to all.

And it does not sound good:

I hate these does it work on etc etc etc but I have read thru loads on this thread and others and am hoping it works on 7 inch tablets. I have the archos arnova 7c G2. I need to root as it does not support any google stuff so its rather useless without the market etc.

So does any one now or tried it out on archos arnova 7cG2 android 2.3.3 please.

Thanks
[Android Software Development] DooMLoRD:
if u have adb drivers for ur device then u can try it directly
[Android Software Development] duryard:
Thanks DL. Drivers for windows or for the arnova. windows reconises it when I plug it in but as a drive. Guess the usual adb drivers will do??

Hey

Im on orange and have just updated over Kies to 2.3.5, with Kernel:

2.6.35.7-I9100BVKj4-CL681297

root@DELL135 #2

Am guessing this means firmware is BVKJ4

Can someone please confirm that this easy rooting toolkit will successfully root my device with the above kernal/firmware?

Thanks
[Android Software Development] marekPLPH:
if its ORANGE Poland yes i just rooted with BVKJ4 using this method...
[Android Software Development] gyro11:
its orange UK, but will assume its pretty much the same :)
[Android Software Development] marekPLPH:
probably.. theres no harm in trying unless you know what youre doing :))

Hey DoomLord,

What windows is recommended or does it matter? I'm running vista.

I'm a little lost only cause if tried your way with no luck and Ive tried shabbypenguins way with no luck any help from you or anyone else that may know is greatly appreciated!

Oh and..Tell Siri I said SUCK IT!
[Android Software Development] DooMLoRD:
UPDATE

added v4 of toolkit, with newest zergRush binary (21 Nov 2011) and few corrections/additions to script

the script will now:

check/correct temporary directory

verify if there is adequate free space on /system, if enough free space is not found >6MB then the script will delete Google Maps (Maps.apk) [thanks to ChainFire for the tip in MobileODIN ;) ], u can later install latest Google Maps from Market...

this toolkit should now work on ZTE Warp...

this may not work on the newest firmwares released by device vendors...

if ur device is already rooted dont bother with this... if the devices is not yet rooted please try it out and kindly report if it worked for ur device...

regards,

DooMLoRD

Thanks from me too!

I was able to root the GPad GForce 2 (Gingerbread v2.3.3) via the toolkit. The toolkit didn't automatically push su and busybox to my tablet, but as those are available for download from Android Market it wasn't a big deal.

anybody managed to root a Note with ?

I may be wrong but it appears that (as suggested) phones with 2.3.6 are failing to root.

Has anyone successfully rooted a previously unrooted Note running 2.3.6?

---------- Post added at 10:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------

when I unzip version 4, zone alarm is giving me a "Exploit.Linux.Lotoor.ab" virus alert. Anyone else getting this? Is it expected?

It is 'helpfully' 'fixing' the 'problem' so I assume it will not work anyway until I shut ZA virus scanner off.
