Hi,

I had root with Visionary but having seen trigeek's post (as per link in your first post) and mention of OTA update I decided to get rid of Visionary and then do the update and follow this course to get root.

Having downloaded all the files and made sure adb was working I set to...

Got all the files on the phone and started the process.

However.....

3.Wait for the message: "Forked #### childs." - Yes, get that and the do:

4.Menu > Reset Term - Terminal Emulator will exit. - indeed it did.. :)

5.Launch Terminal Emulator, it Force Closes. - Got this too and pressed the "Force Close button. Or shouldl I wait?

Launch a second time, and you'll have a root shell - I never get this second terminal window. Ever. I have restarted the phone, gone though the temp root process again and again and always stop at this point.

I think someone else asked (page 5 odd - 20 posts per page) whether the recent update locked out this route to root (excuse the pun!)??

Going by and reading trigeek's topic on this, it would appear that it should work??!!

Any guidance appreciated.. :)

Des. . . ;)

Edit: Maybe not then..

OTA Update... :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MostStupidUser:
Rage not working for 1.72.405.2

with the latest system update, temporary root with rage does not seem to work any more.

Obviously, the large set of rage processes is forked running at least partially as root, but it cannot be easily exploited any more.

After the "Force Quit" of the first try to rerun the terminal emulator, every new call to it simply fails.

I can still work from the adb shell, but not with root rights. There I see, the rage processes, but all further steps, like the insmod or running gfree fails due to

"Permission denied" cases.

Seems like HTC has efficiently closed the hole.

Cheers

Volker

Thanks, but yes, I'm afraid this is a well-known issue with the 1.72 ROMs. See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=886023
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bronz_Most:
Just to be clear:

I rooted with VISIONary r14 and S-OFF'd with gfree_02. I did all of this before I really started to get the hang of adb. But the method I used does NOT give me an engineering hboot, correct?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
I have never been 100% sure if some versions of Visionary put on an eng hboot. But you can easily check by putting the phone into hboot (power it off - proper power off having disabled the "fast boot" mode if it is running a Desire Z ROM), holding Volume Down and pressing Power till it switches on. At the top it will say "ENG" by the hboot version, or "SHIP" for the stock one.

cannot open for read error

hello. i got my desire z today. the device works fine except for 3g data for OPTUS doesnt work. so i thought i could try a different rom. i have tried multiple times using different tutorials over the internet. but i have not been able to do it. with this tutorial i got up to the "# dd if=/data/local/hboot_7230_0.84.2000_100908.nb0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18" part.. i pushed enter and it said "/data/local/hboot_7230_0.84.2000_100908.nb0: cannot open for read: no such files or directory. so i have no idea what to do. the checksum was right and the hboot file coppied over and everything. anyone have any idea what my problem is?

i have build number 1.34.707.5 CL273326 release-keys

kernel version: 2.6.32.21-gd2764ed
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Sounds like the "adb push" for the hboot perhaps didn't work ?

But you would be better off using the "gfree" method in the Wiki to get S-OFF, assuming you have achieved permanent root already. See http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php...Phone.2C_Set_SuperCID.2C_and_Turn_Radio_S-OFF, which includes an explanation of why this method is better and safer, at http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php...7s_Radio_S-OFF_and_What_Does_It_Mean_to_Me.3F
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] htc fan89:
This might be dumb, But I don't remember how to use Cmd to navigate to temp-perm root files and perm-root files. Only time I ever used adb was when rooting my Hero ( it was long time ago):(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
On a Windows PC ? When at the command prompt, you use the "cd" command to change to a different folder/directory, e.g. :

cd gfree-temp-root
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SomEngangVar:
Thank you for the guide. It worked flawlessly and was easy as pie. Which is great for me since I'm admittedly terrible at adb. This guide took a lot of stress away from the process since the phones I've had in the past were rooted by just flashing a .zip as an update. Now I just have to make sure I don't download any ota's. Hah.

Temproot not working: no more terminal

[edit]

Sorry for posting this, i found just later more info on my issue. Nevermind :)

[/edit]

Hi,

Thank you very much for the guide, it's really nice...

but not working for me.

I'm trying to temproot and everything works fine until half of step 5: after the forced close, the terminal is not opening anymore and the phone is _really_ slow until i reboot.

The phone says to be:

android 2.2.1, 12.28e.60.140fU_26.04.02.17_m2

on 2.6.32.21-g540976a

Any hint?

Thank you very much!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nbv4:
I tried all the steps in the OP, and it all worked fine until I got to the point where it tells you to type this:

# insmod /data/local/wpthis-Z.ko
init_module 'wpthis-Z.ko' failed (Function not implemented)

Instead of the not implemented error, I get this:

insmod init_module '/data/local/wpthis-Z.ko' failed (Exec format error)

Should I go to the next step, or did something go wrong?

edit: forgot to say my phone is a new G2 I got in the mail from Tmobile this morning.

yay rage works

i thought i messed up the last step

scare the crap outta me
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
This guide is specific to the DZ, so you have used the kernel module that works with the DZ but not the G2. Don't worry, no harm done though.

The most up-to-date guide for rooting is in the Wiki at http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php...cess_.28Permanent_Root_.2F_.22Permaroot.22.29 That works for both G2 and DZ.

[Nexus One General] Sparky19:
I purchased a Kingston 16 GB class 10 microsd card for my Nexus One. I set up a 1 GB ext3 partition and the rest was fat32. When I tested the performace of the card its read performance was within specifications but its write performance was only about 3 mb/s. I corresponded with Kingston support and they sent me a new one. The new one performed much better but would not work long before it generated so many errors the phone would hang. After I described my configuration to Kingston here is the reply from their technical support.

Hello Lynn,

We do not support any of our flash cards as boot disks or to use to run an OS. These cards are meant to be used in cameras, smartphones, etc as storage devices. It is designed to have a single partition. We suggest you return this card for a refund. If you cannot return this to your place of purchase, please provide a copy of your receipt to see if we can provide a refund for you.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reply to this e-mail with full email history. Thank you for using Kingston on-line technical support.

[Nexus One General] RonnieRuff:
Just means they do not provide support. I have used them in the past and they worked fine
[Nexus One General] Boswell20:
I'm using the same card and its working fine for me
[Nexus One General] G0belet:
I have that card too and originally let my Nexus format it. I had write performance of about 700 KB/s - 1.3 MB/s. Awful. Then I formatted it again on Windows with a bigger size of blocks. IIRC, the ideal I found for top speeds was 16 KBytes blocks. Anything higher and it'd slowly go down, anything lower and I had crippled speed. I think it has to do with the size of memory pages on that card.
[Nexus One General] mlevin:
I have that card and I use it with both a fat and ext3 partition no problem. It is quite slow though (they call this class 10?).
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:
Title != Problem. Fix it.

And most likely what you're experiencing is filesystem format type (block size, clusters, etc) AND block alignment. You'll have to google for the details, but if the card has a 4K physical block size, you'll want the blocks to be 4k and start at the start of each. Otherwise to write 4k you write TWO blocks on the card.

Same deal with SSD's. Partitioning and formatting has be optimized for them to perform their best.

All,

As of 0.3.1 just to let you all know, as I do not use gmail to sync my contacts / candler / backup there is no need for me to keep the following:

GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk

GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk

I have to manually remove it each time, so I have decided to remove this from the base Insanity ROM, as it is services that run and I don't use....

I will provide a addon pack called GmailPack.zip which will contain the following:

Talk.apk

Gmail.apk

GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

GoogleBackupTransport.apk

GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk

GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk

So if you use gmail as your primary means of syncing i suggest you download that as an addon and include it
