Well..

Looked at link and while there is a link to some download it´s password protected.

EDIT: Ah, just saw the user/pass.

And also, IF I applied it, I would like to know what I apply first and also how to fix what I possibly break..

EDIT:

Also, need to know HOW to try it..

I am an Android illitarate.. :p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rhcp011235:
It wont hurt you. and the password is on the blog :)

Its the same author as rage. We are trying to fix this up so you guys can have root. Would like to know if this works for you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gnurf:
I do understand that you are..

And while looking at the readme, I cant see how to execute?

As I said, I know very little about this.

I pushed the file included in package.

adb push KillingInTheNameOf /data/local/tmp

404 KB/s (7249 bytes in 0.017s)

How do I continue?

Ok, I think I figured it out, but still no go..

Here´s what I did.

C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Sync 3.0>adb shell

$ cd /data/local/tmp

cd /data/local/tmp

$ ls

ls

KillingInTheNameOf

$ execute KillingInTheNameOf

execute KillingInTheNameOf

execute: permission denied

$

Suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] T0pp3r:
Same here, after pushing files i have a permission denied too when i try to run it.. :(

I'm on 1.72.* from OTA.

EDIT : i have run it by ./KillingInTheNameOf
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mabalito:
The last command should be ./KillingInTheNameOf and not execute KillingInTheNameOf

Adding ./ before filenames is how you execute files in Linux.

So now you know that. :)

Hope it works!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mabalito:
Also make the file executable by running chmod a+x KillingInTheNameOf before running the last command (./KillingInTheNameOf), otherwise the file won't be executable and thus resulting in permission denied.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gnurf:
Heh. Didn´t know that. But thanks. Now I do.

Still didn´t render anything new.

$ ./KillingInTheNameOf

./KillingInTheNameOf

./KillingInTheNameOf: permission denied

So, question is if its prohibited to execute only, since it is permitted to copy the file there. And if execution only s prohibited, what folders DO accept execution of a file?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gnurf:
Just like that?

In ADB shell I presume?

$ chmod a+x KillingInTheNameOf

chmod a+x KillingInTheNameOf

Bad mode
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mabalito:
Hmm, that's weird. Try it with chmod 777 KillingInTheNameOf
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gnurf:
That did the trick, made it executable..

However...

chmod

Usage: chmod <MODE> <FILE>

$ chmod 777 KillingInTheNameOf

chmod 777 KillingInTheNameOf

$ ./KillingInTheNameOf

./KillingInTheNameOf

And according to readme, there should have been a "#" instead. So, no luck with this. :(

I try it (binary is same size/date/hour) and it failed too as before.

For Info,

This may well work on a Defy on 2.1, but I tried to root the chinese 2.2 version with it and got the same as you guys

For info. I had rooted with Visionary r14 but was going to root using the method described Here. Therefore I used Visionary to "unroot", uninstalled, restarted and then (stupidly, perhaps?) ran the update.

Root was not achieved!

Will try those other methods and advise.

Luck with this project. :)

https://github.com/tmzt/g2root-kmod/tree/scotty2/scotty2/psneuter

untested on the new firmware as i have a g2,

but it doesn't appear fixed in gingerbread, so hopefully it should work for you newer dz guys.

probably need to download the entire zip or tarball from the Downloads button.

adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter

adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter

wait a couple seconds

adb shell
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tbalden:
HOLY ****ING COW!

It works, isn't it? I have a # so rooteeeeed!!!!!!!! :)

PS: After that I tried running it in a local terminal emulator on the device, it tells me:

mmap(): failed. Operation not permitted. And I can't 'ls' the /data/local/tmp neither, telling: opendir failed, Permission Denied.

But, heey, From adb it gave me the # shell, so now we can start to downgrade, if someone tells the way how to do it. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damnoregonian:
sweet.

now, one of the side effects of this, is it puts a bullet between the eyes of the property service, so the phone isn't going to be happy for any newly created processes.

what this means, is we need to make the changes to misc to allow downgrading, then flash an older RUU.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lthnnpwr:
That worked for me. I have a root now.

Confirmed on DHD 1.72

My DHD 1.72 rooted. How to downgrade?)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crimsdings:
works, now we need either downgrade or a visionary+ update ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damnoregonian:
you need to downgrade.

the radio on the rom you're using has the hole used for disabling write protect on the emmc patched.

http://www.thinkthinkdo.com/trac/project1/wiki/misc_version

that program written by guhl will make the change to the misc partition for you that will allow you to downgrade.

adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp

adb chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version

adb shell /data/local/tmp/misc_version --set_version=[verX]

where verX is some version *lower* than whatever RUU you want to downgrade to.

once this is done, reboot the phone and RUU to a lower version,

promptly find and run gfree to prevent you from being in this predicament again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ddup1:
i need to test it fast !!

GG to rhcp and scotty2 (if i follow good, you are both at the origin of this root).

Edit : i got the long awaited # thx a lot
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damnoregonian:
the exploit is mine (scotty2), but as usual, you can thank rhcp for pushing the right people to get things done
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ddup1:
All i know you both work on it with 2 different method so and your works ^^^
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tbalden:
What is the format of the verX string?

Anyone knows where to download the old stock RUU for UK simfree desire z?

Is this the one? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=822908
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g4rb4g3:
just wait a few minutes, i'll post a guide with all downloads needed... currently uploading stock ruu...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rhcp011235:
Yep, all credit go to you :) I just get the right people involved :)
