when i type su it says i dont have permission

but i did the full root process everything worked and i have the superuser.apk installed

help!

am i the only one with this issue?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ParkerOviedo:
waitt im dumb i figured it out sorry for wasting the post guys

i love the help and the time you put in making android the best thing since pockets

haha
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
I keep getting the error ...

Main Version is older!

Update Fail!

Do you want to reboot devices?

<VOL UP> Yes

<VOL DOWN> No
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Whoareyou:
Did u adb push ALL the files
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
To my knowledge .... Let me try again and I will edit THIS post.

EDIT-1: Prgress bar in HBOOT is going now ....

EDIT-2: Same thing ....
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] falken98:
Redo steps 1-7 and make sure there were no errors.

Flashing the image mtd0.img is what makes the loader think your current version is lower than the engineering image and allows you to flash.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] amack10:
I'm about to try this but I want to make sure I have it down before I attempt this. The only part that confuses me is the part

Step 1.

adb push /{the folder u downloaded it to}/flash_image /data/local

Step 2.

adb push /{the folder u downloaded it to}/mtd0.img /data/local

The part that says (the folder u downloaded it to) part. I'm not exactly sure what to write for the folder. Could some one give me an example of wjat they wrote for that part in the cmd promt
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Something like:

adb push c:\users\amack10\Desktop\mtd0.img /data/local
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
Could we do this via Terminal?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
nop. adb push has to be done through adb... thats the only way to do it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] amack10:
ah thank you man you saved me a lot of frustration
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
I pushed with adb and finished with terminal.

Forgot to flash a ROM and list root... LOL. Re-rooting today.

EDIT: Ok, back up and running .... Back on SuperFly v.1.0 and radio updated.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] off1:
So I managed to root my Slide and install the ENG Rom. Now how do I install the SlideMeRoot5 and LatestRadio ZIPs?

Do I have to do the rooting all over again and use Clockwork to install the images or am I missing something here?

Thank You!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
why not check out the slide rom bible... it has everything you would possibly need, and i did a video on how to install custom roms so check it out
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] eleeo037037:
ok i am rooting my brothers mytouchslide i cant remember what you have to do after you push both files. i adb shell but when i su i dont get the "#" symbol there for i cant continue what am i missing. Yes i have bugging on and yes i have my sd mounted
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingofyo1:
but no you arent following the how to root tut... nor the video i made
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] eleeo037037:
what did you do??
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] eleeo037037:
ok let me try again
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
Anyone else loose ENG every time you flash a new ROM ????
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Its normal.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
It shouldn't be ... the eng build is useless if you cant use it after you flash.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Huh?

The point of downgrading to the ENG build is to be able to access clockwork recovery without having to exploit the race condition used to achieve root. Once you downgrade, you never have to flash it again. All you need to do is update the radio to the stock version and flash whatever custom rom you want.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
Go head and flash Superfly v.1.1 and try to use ROM Manager to reboot into recovery... its not going to happen.

You have to push the flash_image and mtd0.img back to /data/local and do the commands again...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Why would you be using ROM Manager...? There are known issues with it and the MyTouch 3G Slide, including (but not limited to) faulty recovery images. Just use the ClockworkMod update.zip found on XDA and reboot into it manually. You'll never see this problem.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] DroidHead:
Ok, I see what you're talking about ... I will flash all I need and see if it still works that way...

EDIT: Can I erase the ESPRIMG.zip from the sd?

Edit:... my bad works that way better... lol
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ninjasauce:
im havign a problem with step 1 when i try to adb push the file i get this error "failed to copy 'flash_image' to '/data/local': Permission denied

idk if i have to push the file while in normal boot or in clockworkmod recovery cause im trying to in clockworkmod recovery and thats when i get the error
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
You do it while the os is loaded.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
I use rom manager to boot into recovery all the time. Always works for me. Of course the eng build is a prerequisite.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ninjasauce:
ok i did that but when i adb shell the # comes up but super user doesnt ask for me to allow it and when i type su it just repeats it back to me and then brings back up the # is that normal or is it not going threw?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
If you open the superuser app on the phone hit then menu key and go into the settings and check to show notification when something is granted su and type su again you will see that superuser will show the notification that "unknown" was granted access.

So its normal
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ninjasauce:
ok it didnt show that but i watched the video tutorial and sean his looked the same to mine and the rest of the steps all went the same and my phone booted up is their anyway to tell if im on the english build and or how to update the radio
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
If you go under about phone it will say "test keys" under there somewhere. Think its under kernel.

As far as the radio if you go to the slide rom bible thread and about the 3rd or 4th post down chiefzreloaded posted the radio update. Download it and put it on the sdcard. Boot into recovery apply update.zip to get into clockwork. Then install zip from sdcard and then select the new radio file you downloaded and it will flash like it were flashing a rom
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ninjasauce:
ok thank you soo much for all the info clockwork recovery is working perfectly and i got the radio updated any choice for rom?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Well its all personal preference. I like the stock rom and I like the roms the devs here have released. I have a folder on my sd card I named "custom roms" and I have every rom that has been released for the slide in there. Right now I'm running eugene373's froyo rom and I like it so I'm sticking with it. Try them out and see what suits you:)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ninjasauce:
ok again thank you for all your help im trying the slide mr1 first but i do want froyo but i heard wifi doesnt work
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Wifi works.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shaqbrooks:
I got my phone rooted, via mac (osx) . Now, how do I do this, can any other Mac users help?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] migueltherocker:
I

I did it via mac. Just stick ./ in front of every command until after you enter ADB shell. Once here just follow the guide as it says.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
If you're unable to get eng build flashed on your slide, head to the #teamslide irc channel at chat.freenode.net

People there will help you out.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
We really need a sticky with our IRC info in it
[Droid X General] sasha101:
Im thinking of getting the drod x on july 19th. My contract with tmobile expires on july fourth so ill probably sell the nexus for it. What do you guys think? Is it a major upgrade? It has 4.3 inch screen and seems better than the evo. :D
[Droid X General] Eclair~:
I say go for it. Don't see why not.. your contract expires.. seems pretty perfect.
[Droid X General] mgymnop:
Phone looks great but think that CDMA is outdated. No data and voice at the same time. Useless phone if you travel to Europe....
[Droid X General] Old MuckenMire:
no voice+data= no sale

having people who call getting dumped to voicemail because I'm using data is not cool

besides I'm personally not ready to go back to a carrier device
[Droid X General] sasha101:
If your browsing the web and someone calls, they get forwarded to voicemail?!
[Droid X General] lazaro17:
Ofcourse not. He just meant that you can't check movie times or what not while you're on a call. I guess in theory it's nice to do both but to be fair I never have found myself in a situation where I am so bored with someones phone conversation that I just start surfing the web mid-call. Ok....maybe once.

The real CDMA deal breaker for me is traveling abroad.
[Droid X General] labbbby:
I also hate Moto since they locked the bootloader of the Milestone.

I would wait and see how the rooting/custom rom effort comes along.

The droid has great community, just make sure Moto doesn't follow up on their bad habbits!
[Droid X General] labbbby:
What about tethering?I believe this might be what he was referring to...
[Droid X General] PrawnPoBoy:
A HSDPA version of the Droid X would be nice, like the Milestone, but ONLY if they leave the boot loader unlockable this time. CDMA is effectively dead in Canada now with only legacy contracts still using the old networks.

It seems like Motorola uses good components in their phones and their build quality is very good, but I don't care for their tacked on UI and would only get the phone if I knew it was possible to load something like CyanogenMod on it. The Nexus One has spoiled me.
[Droid X General] karnovaran:
I'm constantly intrigued by the design of the Droid and now the Droid X and Droid 2, but I just can't stomach a contract and the outrageous Verizon plans. I'll stick with my Nexus and cheap T-mo data for now.
[Droid X General] ztm.000:
I do it. All the time. At least once a day.

And also I'm with ya on the whole cdma bull****. Its such an outdated technology. And I hate Verizon. And I hate carrier devices. I hate carrier branding.

That's why I love the nexus one and att

That's why ill buy the nexus two. And I know I mentioned that I'm gonna buy iPhone 4 but I've been thinking. Apple can go screw its self. :D nexus pwns it.
[Droid X General] TFJ4:
More interesting question is anybody thinking about getting the Galaxy S?
[Droid X General] MaximReapage:
Technically, GSM 3G is a flavor of CDMA...just allows for simultaneous voice and data because of the way it's configured. However, GSM networks can still be configured to only allow voice or data at once, they just happen to have been set up originally to allow them both. The ironic part of it is just that nobody knew when they set up the network that it would be this way and it would end up being such a huge deal - lucky break for AT&T.
[Droid X General] britoso:
If root is easy it will surely boost sales (I hope manufacturers understand this).

Very good specs, but lets wait for an actual device in-depth review
[Droid X General] sasha101:
the droid X can plan .AVI FILES!!!!!! also comes with a multitouch keyboard :D

http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/exclusive-motorola-droid-x-preview/
[Droid X General] codesplice:
Meh, I'll pass.

I think it's rather fugly.
[Droid X General] boogieTilt:
Nexus

It's time for Nexus 2!:D
[Droid X General] khaytsus:
Sorry, you can keep the tablet phones...
[Droid X General] galaxys:
Little too big for my daily use. And we need more detailed specs & benchmarks for validation.
[Droid X General] Buck Shot:
i think these devices are way too big. Ive played with the Evo and this is bigger?! I thought the Evo was big and clunky. Maybe something just a lil bit bigger than my N1 would be my limit. I think Android has this thing where they think bigger is better. I dont wanna hold that thing in my pocket? These things are ganna be tablets size soon
[Droid X General] OrganizedFellow:
It's got nothing to do with being bored with someones phone conversation.

It's multitasking at its finest!

I can't tell you how many times I've used this:

I track my work schedule via Google Calendar. One time =, while talking to my Supervisor, I needed to double-check my work schedule. So I put him on speaker while I launched GCalendar.

This other time, my wife called me, saying she was having car trouble. I was at work. She was running errands with my 2 year old and 7 month old baby. I put her on speaker, toggled on GPS, asked her where she was, and found the nearest auto-parts store a few blocks away.

A Samsung device?

YUCK! NO!! NEVER!!!
[Droid X General] wesbalmer:
Our geek population accounts for such a dismissable figure that I think you're wrong. Manufactures understand that warranty replacements for bricked devices equal loss in revenue. The Nexus One approach is a good effort in order to ease the financial losses, but the Nexus One (now, of course) only really appeals to the 'geek' community. Hopefully its rootable, but because of the way that our community has 'used' the system I hope its built with security
[Droid X General] OrganizedFellow:
While very true. We can just hope that further releases of great devices follow Googles example of "fastboot oem unlock", or something similar.
[Droid X General] RogerPodacter:
these new huge devices are great for the platform, but i'll keep the nexus. the nexus is just so sexy, solid, great materials, and the PERFECT size and form factor. just sooo svelte:D. not to mention the amoled screen is gorgeous.

i have a feeling that the nexus is a keeper forever, even when its outdated. its a classic that belongs in my permanent collection. i'll probably wait for the next flagship/nexus two/whatever.
[Droid X General] codesplice:
Seems like this device was meant to fill in the gap between a pocket-sized smartphone and a small tablet... and I'm fairly certain that gap exists for a reason.
[Droid X General] trn20:
Maybe when motorola makes a GSM version. I won't ever buy a CDMA phone, useless overseas.
[Droid X General] PrawnPoBoy:
Well it looks like Verizon has a page up for the Droid X now.

http://phones.verizonwireless.com/droid/x/

It says it has a 720p screen, which to me means 1280x720 resolution. I have to believe that's a mistake on their part... I don't think that 800x480 can be considered 720p, but maybe they do.
[Droid X General] :
I wouldn't be surprised, the iPhone 4 is 960 x 640, and it's 3.5-ish. Up the size to 4.3 and you get to the 1280x720 res if you maintain the ppi rate.
[Droid X General] ralexand:
Surprised that no one is concerned with the price increase for plans with VZW. That is the #1 reason I left for TMO -- saved $40 / month with the same amount of minutes (prices for VZ plans have gone down since then, albeit slightly).

For example, I'm using the $59.99 plan with 500 minutes and unlimited everything - $65 after taxes. With VZ (now) it would be $59.99 for 450 minutes (unlimited text) PLUS $29.99 for unlimited data, so after taxes I would be paying at least $95.
[Droid X General] britoso:
Its actually a profit/increase in revenue for them if they do it right (detect unlocking). For example the N1. They charge a hefty fee for returns due to software where the boot-loader is unlocked.

It seems HTC has been fair (as per some accounts here) in not charging people where the problem is clearly hardware related.
[Droid X General] :
720p screen was a typo, it's been fixed to 720p capture.

lol
[Droid X General] :
Yeah def a buy for me :)
[Droid X General] .mak:
I'll be in line the morning it comes out.. even if there is no line!
[Droid X General] skwizod:
I'll get the GSM version assuming it's like the Droid/Milestone, etc..
[Droid X General] xenspidey:
True but good service over crappy service wins every time... I've had Sprint and T-mobile... i'll pay extra for decent service over crap any day!!!! can't wait till the Droid X comes out, i'm getting one for sure... well unless HTC releases something between now and July 2nd.
[Droid X General] rolandroland:
size

I think it'll come down to pocket-ability as it has ever tech spec other than front facing cam and LTE. If I got to fumble to get it in and out or it doesn't fit right in my dress pants (I'm sure jeans are no problem) then it is off to the Incredible, whenever they get back in stock. Otherwise it is X time.
[Droid X General] dr154:
I am due for an upgrade and this baby will surely do it... YAY! early upgrade for this baby, hehehehee :p
[Droid X General] jmejia15:
So it is confirmed that there will be no way of this phone receiving LTE data? That's a bummer considering VZW is planning on releasing their 4G network at the end of 2010, if not early 2011.
[Hero CDMA General] jerry43812:
So, I';ve done a bunch of tests with PRLs since last night and wasn't the most impressed with my results. I am curious to know, if I go and download the available radios for the hero, and try them out, would I notice a difference in my 3g up/down speed as well as ping time? Or does the radio have nothing to do with 3g connectivity
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
The radio updates are software controls for how to actual hardware radio works, so yeah give it a shot and see how it works.

Make sure to stay away from anything GSM though.

Geekfor.me has a listing of all available CDMA radios.
[EVO 4G General] Neotelos_com:
I'm amazed, day 1 of launch I didn't get 4G anywhere except Chicago!

Over the past couple days I am getting 4G even in Round Lake & Grayslake, most surprising if you are aware of the area. It's relatively lower income in the area compared to the suburbs 10min South.

Around Lincolnshire I hit 3.8Mbps! I was under the impression 3Mbps was the cap, that's what I get (solid speed) when I checked 4G in Chicago.

I wont lie, I'm impressed, 4G was scarce just a week ago!
[EVO 4G General] alexzogh:
No 4g for me :<

You are lucky....

I live in Lake Forest - No 4g for me, and it's a very affluent area. Worse, I get NO SIGNAL in my home (3g / 4g, cell).

I specifically left AT&T because of dropped calls and lack of 3g service. I may have to leave Sprint because of no service....

Any idea if they will be adding towers anytime soon?

I wish there was a way to test Verizon before I switched again.
[EVO 4G General] Neotelos_com:
I have no idea, but hey...you've got another 2+ weeks to decide. :)

That does stink though, in general I've experienced good service...have you upgraded the radio on your Evo? That makes a difference.
[EVO 4G General] alexzogh:
I've rooted, and have a de-crapified build with the latest updates.

The lack of service also kills my battery, as it's continually trying to connect unless I go into airplane mode.

Major bummer :<
[EVO 4G General] akrein62:
Call retentions and tell then you get lousy voice service. They gave me a free Airave and waved the monthly charge. Won't help with data much, with data, but works great for voice. You need a broadband connection with it.
[EVO 4G General] sk63:
I'm in Evanston and I've picked up 1 or 2 two bars of 4G while outside. Inside I had to get an Ariave. Speeds haven't been impressive so far, 3G actually has been faster when I've tested.
[EVO 4G General] hnic32:
Have you tried flashing a verizon radio to your Evo? Maybe a better signal.
[EVO 4G General] Freelancerx:
if you go downtown you get what i have in my sig :-)

at my place by midway i get about 4mbps. yesterday i was testing and i was getting around 1 to 1.5 but today testing again i get around 3.5 to 4.5. maybe the weather was messing things up yesterday....i was testing while it was raining. today its gorgeous outside...
[EVO 4G General] altgamer:
No 4G around Waukegan, IL either. Though I get full 3G coverage in and around this area, so I don't mind since data still loads pretty quick. :)
[EVO 4G General] cjdalessio:
Grayslake has a 4Gtower - from there it's a long run south till the next. Lake Forest doesn't want any towers on their precious skyline so signal there sucks. Drives me nuts.

I ride the train into downtown from Grayslake so I've been watching 4g rollout closely - will stick with the Hero for a bit yet I suspect. No compelling reason to work around early upgrade mess and short supply. Yet.

[Droid Incredible General] areghas:
So I successfully rooted my phone, removed abunch of bloatware, like verizonbackup, friendstream, tweeter, flickr, and a few others. but now my gmail wont sync automatically, i have to manually refresh my inbox, it doesnt seem to be "pushing" new messages to me and its getting very annoying. Is anyone else having this problem?
[Droid Incredible General] mycomputerisjunk:
I think we will start seeing more and more of these issues as people root the phone and/or remove apps that they think are "bloatware".

Did you try removing and re-adding your gmail account?
[Droid Incredible General] sdorn77:
I just completed rooting my phone this morning, but only removed City ID. My gmail is working normally, including giving me new mail notifications as soon as emails come in. Maybe you deleted something you shouldn't have deleted.

As an aside, why did people hate City ID so much? I deleted it because everyone else was, and because I wasn't using it, but not really sure what it does.
[Droid Incredible General] TNS201:
If you removed the verizon backup assistant you have to do a factory reset, meaning wipe all your data, this could be your issue. I seen somewhere else saying you have to do a factory reset once you remove that.
[Droid Incredible General] wpbear:
It nags every 15 days and wants $2.99 a month fee. It is useless since all it does it tell you what the city and state is associated with the caller's area code and exchange. Most everyone knows the local area code and exchanges. if it was a one time $2.99 maybe, but $2.99 a month they are crazy.
[Droid Incredible General] sdorn77:
I agree. That would be irritating as hell. I have only had my phone for 3 or 4 days, so I hadn't seen any nag screens yet. Now hopefully I won't!
[Droid Incredible General] rynosaur:
Oh, you will :) I think the cost is outrageous too, especially since all the program is doing is checking the XXX-YYY-0000 against a data base, where X is state and Y is town.

As for the OP, just go into Applications menu and clear your Gmail and Gmail Storage cache. We used to have a similar problem way back in the dark ages of 2008 G1, when rooted owners would immediately uninstall the Fave 5 application Tmo so kindly put on there, which would immediately erase all Cloud contacts AND break sync :)
[Droid Incredible General] areghas:
I performed a factory reset after removing everything I didnt want, but I think I read in another post that it might have something to do with friendstream.apk, does anyone happen to have this and can host it somewhere? I'll try removing and readding the email account.
[Droid Incredible General] jackattack:
Same here.....looking for the friendstream.apk. On a side note, don't install the friendstream.apk for the evo, as it put me in a nasty reboot loop.
[Droid Incredible General] ctinsley:
I too am having this issue, but it is only happening to one of my two gmail accounts, one pushes fine but the secondary account I have to manually refresh to get my email. I haven't removed any bloatware from my phone.
[Droid Incredible General] Dmtalon:
Count me in... Neither HTC Mail nor gmail are auto syncing on their own. If I turn OFF then back ON the auto sync (via the power widget) they sync, but any futher emails are not working.

This is on the leaked 2.2 for me
