This is the method I've used over the years on multiple devices with no issues until now. All files and permissions are in place and proper. For some reason I've got a device that is giving me su issues. Everything is in it's place but su doesn't invoke. Anyone encounter this before and have a solution?

adb shell
shell:/ $ id
uid=2000(shell) gid=2000(shell) groups=1003(graphics),1004(input),1007(log),1011(adb),1015(sdcard_rw),1028(sdcard_r),3001(net_bt_admin),3002(net_bt),3003(inet),3006(net_bw_stats) context=u:r:init_shell:s0
shell:/ $ su
1|shell:/ $ id
uid=2000(shell) gid=2000(shell) groups=1003(graphics),1004(input),1007(log),1011(adb),1015(sdcard_rw),1028(sdcard_r),3001(net_bt_admin),3002(net_bt),3003(inet),3006(net_bw_stats) context=u:r:init_shell:s0
shell:/ $

su along with supersu has changed since the last time I used it. I needed to push and modify far more files than simply dropping su and supersu as I've always done in the past. You will need to follow the update-binary script in the supersu zip for a full working installation on this new device of mine.

Hello everyone.

Before starting I would like to say congratulations for this very forum filled and helpful and thank you to the members for their valuable support.

Here, I would like my rooter Android (5.0.2) in this way because he Odin "brick".

Then my android no root me is not helpful and blocking me in many field.

Then I follow this tutorial but I'm blocked at:

-> Adb push busybox / data / local / tmp

Here is the error returned:

c:\ADB\platform-tools

> adb devices

List of devices attached

d614ce54 device

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

c:\ADB\platform-tools

> adb push busybox /data/local/tmp

cannot stat 'busybox': No such file or directory

Knowing that Busybox is now on my mobile phone but can not be installed because no root.

The command "chmod" does not work either. What is normal but annoying.

(In my case, I'm French, my English level is average and my knowledge of the shell (bourne again shell / bash) is above that of novice.)

Hoping to respect the philosophy of the forum in question and especially to be understood.

Thank you for your help because I really need my mobile rooter .... Good day to all.

Try This

It sounds like you opened cmd which started in a different directory.

Open your folder which contains all of the necessary files, right click inside the folder and left click on the new context menu option labelled "Open command window here".

Now retry your command.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Michele31415:
I tried both these methods on a Polaroid M10/Q1010 (Southern Telecom) 10" tablet with Android 6.0.1. Total fail.

I got adb running on my XP PC, pushed all the files into /data/local/tmp and chmod'ed them OK. But when I tried running Nautilus, the tablet doesn't show up. I'm using Ubuntu in a VirtualBox VM since I don't have a Linux machine handy. The host PC recognizes the tablet, the Ubuntu doesn't. Do I need adb on the Ubuntu machine too? Ubuntu sees other USB devices fine.

Tried Method 2. Psneuter ran OK but when I reopened ADB and typed su, I still get a $ prompt, not #.

I tried Android Commander but when I navigate to /data/local/tmp, it says the directory is empty (though adb shows the files there).

I tried all the one-click root apps listed here and they all failed. Foo. Is there any way to root this thing? I'm running out of ideas.

Update: Well having exhausted all other avenues, I finally solved the problem by packing this thing up and sending it back to the vendor. Honestly, what is it with this whole Chinese tablet root thing?

Install ADB devices drivers. If that is done, then it is probably an issue with the root kit. Download the latest version of ADB and simply move the su, BusyBox, and superuser files to that folder and perform the same operation. Leave a thanks if I helped.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Ngadhnjim:
believe me these command r nothing

i install sudo natalius via new linux 16.10 (every ubuntu got that) but nothing changed i can se only root of my hdd nothing more ,nautalius is like explorer when u runn commend sudo nautalius explorer see system files (but only system files of my linux) dont known much for that but i garantie you that these commands doesent work to root any device (maybe old devices like s4 and older)

i runn all that commands via linux and nothing cant change ,we need some real thing that help us out

try these

adb devices

if you see device listed u can continue with

adb reboot bootloader

and

fastboot oem unlock

and follow instuction on phone

but first you need adb and fastboot on your pc

on myne (cubot dinosaur mt6735 arch) when i runn these phone ask me to unlock but sound up and down keys dosent work and i cant continue unlock proces ,try other on devices

if that command work for you you can unlock your bootloader and can root your device by kingoroot apk...

at new devices without unlock theres no way ,name of thread say universal but maybe only for samsung phones wich u dont need to unlock bl

---------- Post added at 06:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 AM ----------

sorry friend thats dont work dont loose ur time with commands ,i run every command on linux and nothing can change

windows its better to try to unlock ur bootloader (first need adb drivers installed)

then run command

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot oem unlock

if you got seccues its not problem to root ur phone (u can by kingoroot or king root apk)

Directory does not exist?

Hello,

I have d/l ADB/FASTBOOT, and installed it. A command window opens. When I enter "ADB devices" my device shows up (LG FIESTA LTE L64VL).

This is where the problems begin. First (I must be a new kind of noob), I can't find a rootkit to extract. So, I went on to the code part since everything else looked good. But every command I enter I.e. ..../data/local/tmp

The PC returns a response of "no file or directory exists" I have busybox ready to go on my adv but the PC doesn't seem to find it. Same with any other command.

Please help! The Fiesta LTE is, I'm told, a variant of the X POWER 2, and I can find virtually nothing about this adv on the wb, save for my own pathetic plea for a root solution.

Please advise.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] LilAnt530:
You need to use the cd command in command prompt to change the directory to the folder with which you have placed ADB :), also make sure you are running your CMD as admin.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Cinephile 74:
Thanks, I'm about to give it a shot. But it seems there is no TWRP CWM or even a stock ROM to be found. The Fiesta bears the same FCC ID and is basically a clone of the LG X POWER 2, save for a slightly different processor architecture (quad core/octo core, respectively with the same 1.5Ghz single snapdragon).

I have no clue bro, LG does this crap all the time my Lv44L is basically an Optimus Zone 3 or Vs425vpp, it will help if you add a / symbol at the end of the directory for example "cd /data/local/tmp/" instead of "cd /data/local/tmp"
