Help With Root - XPERIA X10 Android Development

hey guys, been a short term fan of android, and i recently (or what i thought so) rooted my X10i with the original RB..20 Firmware.
Today i updated to the new R2BA026 firmware. and my device appears routed but it not, how do i go about rooting this firmware to remove the annoying Moxier apps etc.
Plz Plz Plz Help

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740240
Read this thread !!!

I just found it Lol
Thank you for telling me anyhow.

im really stuck on rooting it even with the instructions. im in the CMD.exe and all im getting is it cannot find the files even though they are directly on my C drive and also it IS connected via USB / Development mode
hellllllllllllllllp!

do you have adb installed ?

I prefer this method - forum.xda-developers.com, having tried the other today it's a bit more complicated afterwards imo trying to run adb.

the other way you said to me i tried on my unlocked X10i, but it wont work on this build as its already above the 24 build.
Ive downloadd the SDK and i have the ADB.exe in the kit but am i looking at the wrong thing? how would i install it if it just runs a cmd.exe?

With this method you can root any regional firmware, atleast up to 026 and you will get updates from seus, root will be gone but its hopefully just to root the new firmware again.....
Saw somewhere a full script with adb inside no need to install it on the computer but atm i can find it

ok well, erm, which method would be better, ?? shall i do the original root procedure i did before flashing the files on to the phone?

extract the exploid_x10 to a folder with the same name directly under C:
then put the adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll,AdbWinUsbApi.dll into same folder
then cd to that folder with command promt and then run runme.cmd
that should do it

ok well so far so goo most of the files are moving on to the SD card BUT...
c:\exploid_x10mini>adb push su /sdcard/su
failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Permission denied
thats what im getting on my Cmd panel.

Sorry, adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll,AdbWinUsbApi.dll should be put into Exploid_x10/FILES folder.........

so do i have to create a folder inside the exploid_x10mini? because the files are already there

nah then u got the right one, your sdcard shouldnt be mounted to pc
and you have to turn wifi off and on when program tells you to
usb debugging should be enables on the phone aswell

all good till running rootshell when it comes back saying...
$ rootshell
rootshell
rootshell: permission denied

sorted YEY!!!
Thank you for all your help. Im not a complete noob ith computers, i know quite a bit but, dealing with android is a bit of a new experience.

It's personal preference I guess.

I rooted... now what?
How do I remove the Timescape and other crap after rooting with this method? If you didn't guess, I am a complete noob with Android.

2.1 Root Method

ROOT achieved for 2.1 FW.
Sometimes the first method isn't always the best:
*edit*
A new app has appeared on the market called "z4root". This seems to root in one click.
Details are here.
Install this from the Market, press Root and you're away.
Old Methodm should it still be required:
This requires you to have 2.1 already (either Nordic, or other generic, or using Bin4ry's flashtool version here.
instructions and files as below.

Download the SuperOneClick (files attached) or original post here

Updated Superoneclick version 1.5.4
v1.5.4
Fixed superuser install issue
Added a prompt to tell you to allow superuser on your phone, for the test.
Fixed unroot.
It can take a while to ROOT - looks as though it is stuck in a loop. I thought it wasnt working but waited about 10mins and it worked.
If you wait longer and it still doesn't work, try untick/retick USB debug while it's running
Hey Presto - ROOT !
Thanks CVCHETAN for adding the attachments & tidying it up.. it was late
Remember you will probably want Busybox too - click Problems from within Titanium to download.
NOTE: If you're having no luck with this, it seems the PDANet client might install different drivers which help the process. If you're struggling this might be worth a try. Also ticking Unknown Applications allows it to send the SuperUser.apk has reported to help some users.
PdaNet Client is here.
Pre-requisites not mentioned in this post:
Working 2.1 X10
Drivers must be installed for X10 Debug mode - try adb manually to check
Some virus checkers might flag these files - this is because an exploit can be a security risk, but 100% virus free
You run this all on your PC - it connects to your phone and roots it from there.
Doesnt work for me, get failed! No ~~FU GOO~~ or something
Tried different versions of the app
Hmmm Barnacle isn't working quite as expected (even after setting athwlan0), but Titanium is definitely giving root...
will post a pic in a bit, have another x10 to update / root first
None of them work for me.

SE site..
wait ill zip it nd upload it
i didnt need to swap any files..
i downloaded the package on that link, it looked like it was stuck in a loop but i left it 10mins came back and it said worked.
only difference is that first time i did shell root - then i did a proper root afterwards, not sure if this makes a difference
very happy here..
Thanks mate!
thread moved to dev section and stickied..
should also say i had to download busybox in titanium.. click problems on the front screen.
Veryyyy happy.. not only is it rooted now but I get very slight credit for it.
If you've got the loop leave it running, about to do another handset now so will see whats different
Still cant get it to work, can anyone who got this to work write a step by step please?
it's very easy
you yust start the exe click on root now it tooks al very long times
(<10 mins) and in this time the programm try very often to root the device
then a message come up
and your device is rooted
I'm getting "Waiting for device..."
make sure you've got USB debugging turned on
after installing 2.1 it will default to off
It's turning on.
sweet thank you very much.
right, now to get rid of that blue....

Itomic IMID77T

anyone know anything about these tablets? It is a cheap brand from bestbuy, I was just wondering if anyway could help me to get the android market to run on it.. It is a custom Itomic branded rom, it only has swift market or something like that on it.. Also, the recovery is not a regular recovery. When I go into recovery it just shows Itomic on the screen and says recovery mode at the bottom.. Itomic BestBuy That is the link to bestbuy for specs on it..
TIA
Julian
Are you rooted? If you're not rooted then go here: HERE and pick up the latest SuperOneClick program to get you started. Once you're rooted you need to download the latest Android Market apk here: HERE. Put that file on the root of the sd card in your tablet and then use a file explorer such as Root Explorer to find the file. Once you know where the apk is located you can use an APK installer to install the file. Then viola! You now have the Android market on your new tablet.
Trust me when I say you want to avoid a resistive screen (no multitouch) and 256M RAM (slooooow) as I have a 10" tablet with those specs.
Its not mine, i would not buy one with those specs just for the reason of I am used to my evo, not the best phone, but I like the way it responds and I would want the same or better response from a tablet... This is actually my 10 year old cousins tab, and it did not come with the android market as stated above so I am trying to fix that... I am nervous to root it because it doesnt have a regular recovery so if something goes wrong I would not be able to fix it... So I am looking for a dev that has experience with this or a similar tab... If I knew linux programming Id be a dev but unfortunately I dont know and at this point in time I do not have the time to learn...
That one click root program won't hurt anything. I've rooted many tablets and phones with it and it works like a charm, no problem. Once you're rooted and get the market make sure you get rom manager and see if there are any flashable recoveries for the tablet.

I also forgot to mention I cannot get adb drivers to work... I have dev on and it still wont recognize the android drivers.. It is not the micro usb but mini usb, I have tried multiple usbs but it still will not find the correct drivers...
I dug into this and just found the tab came rooted, all I had to do was mount the system as rw through adb and then manually changed su to the gb su.. I installed root explorer and rom manager but unfortunately there isnt a recovery for it... I saw on androidtablets.net that a guy is willing to port cwm to any tab for you but am nervous to try anything because it is my cousins... I think for now I will just install the market and be done..
Yeah that would be the best since it doesn't look like it's too widely supported. But cm would give it a smoother feel and be a little nicer, but do what you choose.

I did it on my laptop, I have windows 7 64 bit with the android sdk installed..

I was having trouble getting adb to work on vista where I just had the adb files not the full sdk.. I also have the sdk in my path (if that makes any difference?) I also have all the htc diag drivers and motorola diag drivers installed... If you cant figure it out, just let me know and Ill dig through everything and see if I cant figure out what drivers helped... Also, I didnt use the plug that came with it..

Very often when you want to write files to a particular partition on ADP1, you will get a "Permission Denied" if the partition is mounted read-only.
To get around this, you need to mount the partition read-write. Typically this is done with /system partition
$ adb shell
$ su
$ mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
(Replace /dev/block/mtdblock3 & /system with appropriate device path and mount point, as obtained from cat /proc/mounts) quoted from: android-tricks.blogspot.com

thanks for your help! I got the ADB to work and was able to mount it as rw. But, like I said I am new to this and am still having some trouble. then you say you changed the su found in the /system/xbin what does that mean? how do I get to /system/xbin? Thanks again for your help

actually I figured it out once I got a root explorer. Im able to find the su file, but not really sure what, if anything Im supposed to change. Once thats taken care of , how to I download the android market? Do i just find an APK online for it? Or is therre another program or something I have to go through. Thanks again, im learning...
Sorry its taken so long to reply, when i say I changed the SU in /system/xbin, I opened windows cmd and ran "adb shell" "cd to /system/xbin" "rm ./su" then "exit" still in the cmd i adb pushed the su file that i extracted from this file su-2.3.1-efgh-bin-signed.zip (thanks to goo-inside.me) with "adb push C:\su /system/xbin" I then pushed superuser.apk to /system/app with "adb push C:\superuser.apk /system/app" then "adb reboot" and when it turns back on you are fully rooted. now download gapps from goo-inside.me then extract the system/app from the zip you need to install GoogleServicesFramework.apk OneTimeInitializer.zip SetupWizard.apk Talk.apk Gmail.apk Vending.apk with "adb push *.apk /system/app"

[Q] Rooting T-01D/ F-05D

Greeting,
It was heard that rooting T-01D are similar as F-05D.
I found a website regarding rooting F-05D, but I dont read Japanese, just want to know if anyone have tried the enclosed method to root T-01D?
or could anybody do the translation, since the terms become quite strange after using the online translators
The following link is ref. of rooting F-05D:
ttp://ayati.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2012/01/f-05droot-1d0b.html
(should be "http" rather than "ttp")
The source code of T-01D have been provided also, but I have no idea how to use it and root the machine:
ttp://spf.fmworld.net/oss/t-01d/data/download.html
(should be "http" rather than "ttp")
Thank you very much in advance?
Update of 4/4
the following t-01d rooting procedures is provided by Magimaster
Hello.
I am sending this pm regarding the translation for flashing the Fujitsu f-05d sold by Docomo in Japan. I cannot reply in the development section due to my low post count.
My phone is an f-05d. I do not have a t-01d but, according to the original rooting guide for the f-05d, the users are reporting success in rooting the t-01d as well.
I will not really translate for you. Rather, I will explain what I did to root my f-05d.
Here is a rough summary of the steps I followed:
For starters, you need to make sure that adb recognizes your phone when connected to the PC via USB. This means that you need to install the Android SDK and the USB driver for your t-01d by Fujitsu.
I had trouble getting adb to recognize my phone, as Window$ insisted in recognizing it as an USB drive. What I did, among other things, was:
In the phone settings, go to Applications > Development and check USB Debigging and Stay awake.
Install the Google USB Driver package, in the extras section of the Android SDK Manager.
With the phone connected to the PC, go to Window$ device manager > Universal Serial Bus Controllers and uninstall (use the delete key from your the keyboard) every mass storage device that appeared when my phone was connected. Disconnect and reconnect the usb cable.
Only until I did this final step was my phone recognized and listed as Android Phone > Android Composite ADB Interface in the device manager. If your device is not recognized, you just cannot continue. Look for help about this, or else you cannot move on with this method of rooting.
Confirm that your phone is recognized as Android Phone > Android Composite ADB Interface in the Window$ device manager. Do not continue until it is.
From the Android SDK manager, install the package android sdk platform-tools.
You need download F05Droot.zip from the original blog page your linked before. I will not link to the file directly, but you should have no problem finding it. Extract the files within into the program directory \Android\android-sdk\platform-tools (this is my path).
You need to download a replacement for the file lsm_disabler.ko that is inside the F05Droot.zip. Get it from here and extract it an replace the one inside the platform-tools directory.
By the way, this platform-tools directory is the one that has the adb executable file. Just a heads up.
You need to download su. I cannot tell you where to get it. I just do not know where I got mine from, but was easy so go for it When you have it, extract it and put it in the platform-tools directory.
Confirm that the platform-tools directory includes these files:
Code:
adb.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
su
lsm_disabler.ko
f05dsu.bat
There will be more, but these are the ones needed for this to work.
Now, get ready to root. Connect your phone to the PC.
Go to your phone settings > setting my body > step/activity counter app > pedometer use and confirm it is checked on.
In the platform-tools directory, look for f05dsu.bat and run it. A DOS window will open. This is the funny part. Unless you are doing this from a Japanese version of Window$, or from a Window$ with Japanese locale active, you will see a lot of strange symbols instead of Japanese characters... which would be the same for almost anyone anyway Regardless, you will see a prompt to Press any key to continue . . .. At this point, you do not need to do anything on your phone, other than visually checking that the check mark on the pedometer is set.
On the DOS window press any key, your will see more garbage and another prompt to press any key. This is the important part. See if you can find among all those symbols this pattern: OFF/ON. If you do see it, it means we are on track.
Now that you were able to see the OFF/ON, go to your phone and uncheck the pedometer (OFF) and check it again (ON).
In the DOS window, press any key. Your phone will reboot. The message in the DOS window says that you must wait for the phone to boot up and for Window$ to recognize your usb connection to the phone.
When/if your phone is recognized by Window$, go to the DOS window and press any key.
Again, press any key and your phone will reboot.
The DOS window has a message indicating that you must now install superuser and busybox. When your phone reboots, go to the android market and install from there when you have the time.
You can now close the DOS window because, unless there was any error, you are now rooted, my friend
From the market, install a terminal, or an app that includes a terminal. I use Rom Toolbox because it has a terminal and scripts to mount the /system as rw.
Open whatever terminal you chose and, at the $ prompt type su
If new prompt is #, type soff
You will need to run these commands every time before trying to mount /system as rw.
That is all. I hope you can root your phone.
Just a petition, post this message in the forums, as it may help others who have similar difficulties. It sure could have helped me if someone had done before me.
Have a nice one and please forgive my English.

update 15/4
On 13/4 finally i got my phone rooted
I have to run f05droot.bat instead of f05dsu.bat
After I have run the f05dsu.bat, for the steps, no error popout.
then I open the terminal type su, it reply me "permission denied".
I know it is not successful, after several run, the situation still the same.
after that have checked the contents of f05droot.bat and f05dsu.bat.
They are very similar but the f05droot.bat will push the superuser and busybox into the device at the same time.
(so I added those files in the directory \Android\android-sdk\platform-tools )
Therefore, i tried that and its works finally.
I feel really exciting at that moment.
I hope this post can help they T-01d user to root the phone.
personally I really like this phone ^~^
the su file is also important
Anyone try it? Does it work?
I have got the source code from its web
But I dont know how to use that and lead me to root the machine

If you have time, can you please post a mini review of the device? I wanted to buy one too and I'm quite excited reading your review!
Thanks and more power!
Here is the mini review
Screen color is perfect except black and accurate. Speed is good in comparing with SGS2. Battery life is similar to SGS2. Form factor is better than SGS2. Camera is outstanding, thanks to the 1.3MP camera. Waterproofing design is what I like. The bad is upgrading is only possible in Japan. Digital TV is useless. Sound level is a bit low.
personally i like this phone very much especially the outlook.
my personal review is the following:
1. same as above the screen is perfect
2. the camera is also excellent
3. while you have a phone call, it change mode automatically depends on the environment
4. if i switch off all the data things, this phone can stand more than one day
(so i wont blame the battery, because I think we use too many network related stuffs)
5. i have to admit that the firmware is not quite stable (fortunately the phone can be upgrade to 4.0 after july)
for the rooting process, it seems like someone has success:
(i think that is temp root)
search "T-01D 軟解, tofu-keitai" in google (that is chinese unfortunately)

hi HaoyuWen,
i have followed the steps, when i type su in the terminal simulator, it comes out segmentation fault su, do you have any idea.
I use titanium backup to check and it said my t-01d is not rooted.
for the pedometer on/off things, do i need to press the home key and go back to the pedometer to do the switch?
Thank you very much in advance

I think I brick my T-01D. Don' know why, I do exactly the same what I have been told here... Now It ends up infinite boot loop
Anybody help me please?
Hey there everyone, sadly this guide isn't working for me. Everything in the guide goes smoothly and I do exactly what is listed but after my phone reboots the final time I still have no root access. I run f05droot.bat instead of f05dsu.bat like the user said but to no avail, I even ran f05dsu.bat and still nothing.
Anyone else have trouble? Maybe it is because I am on a certain FW? I am on 2.3.5
Baseband Version C_L1_M23
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #1
and Build number is V43R41C
Just wondering as I really want root to disable all of these RAM-hogging default applications.
Bump? Anyone?
As far as I know, this rooting method cannot be done on FW V43R41C.

Aw Thanks for the notice, of course it's my firmware. Any idea about ICS? It was supposed to come out in July but yeah..
I don't know about ICS for t-01d. My sc-01d has been already upgraded to ICS, the performance is improved a lot. sh-01d also gets ICS today.

I see, I read about the T-01D (among many others) getting updated from articles like this: http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/e.../docomo-update-ics-4-0-18-models-3662812.html
I'm sure the T-01D would perform pretty awesome and maybe pre-installed software would not be as big a deal as it is now. Maybe since your SH-01D is getting updated, T-01D isn't far behind. The only thing I have to see is if I can update out of Japan.
I don't have sh-01d but galaxy tab 10.1 sc-01d instead. My t-01d also upgraded to V43R41C last month during visiting Japan. Upgrade of t-01d may not be possible outside Japan as Software Update cannot be executed without docomo sim and network.

How do I install apk from Terminal Emulator from my Android Phone running JellyBean ?

Hello,
Here is the short story.
I have Samsung Galaxy ACE which is rooted.
Till y'day I was using CM9 Beta 8 ICS 4.0.4 and it was working well.
I installed CM10 JB for Galaxy Ace alpha1 from "hxxp://maclaw.pl/?page_id=180#comment-3642"
Now the problem is, JB doesn't have File Manager installed and I need to install TB to revert my backups.
Due to some unknown reason I am not able to access internet on my device either through GPRS or 3G connection.
I am desperately looking for a way to access my SDCARD wherein I have all my apk's which I can install however, without File Manager I am not sure how to install an apk.
I did some google search and came across topics about installing apk using Android SDK etc.. however I would not want to work on SDK as I feel its bit tedious job for me.
I also tried Android Injector however that didnt work even if I have enabled USB debugging Mode for adb + apps.
Now, I am hoping that, I can use the Terminal Emulator which is preinstalledo n my phone to install apk present on my sdcard.
However, I am not sure how to do that, It would be really appreciated if anyone can suggest the steps to install apk present on my sdcard from Terminal Emulator available on my phone.
Here are some of the screen captures

Thanks
Never mind...
I managed to install Astro File Manager apk from Terminal Emulator.
For those who are interested, here is what I had done.
Previously, I wasn't able to browse sdcard contents from TE,
I rebooted my phone once, fired up TE again
~Android$ su
Allow root access for TE
~Android# cd sdcard
~Android# ls ( Contents of SD card are listed ) I had copied astrofm.apk on root of SDCARD
~Android# pm install astrofm.apk
Success !
Thanks

I very much appreciate the quick tutorial!
However, with that being said, I am having an issue trying to install my .apk onto my Motorola Xoom (Rooted running CM10.1) through the use of Terminal Emulator. I first tried installing the .apk from my File Manager and just clicking on the icon, and clicking Install, like one would think one should be able to do. When that method failed, multiple times(kept saying "insufficient storage, please delete files through app manager") which by the way, I know for a fact I have 15.8GB of storage left on my Xoom, so this should not be the issue. I then decided to try and install through Terminal Emulator. Now one would think it would be about the same as using adb commands on a Computer, which it somewhat is I guess you could say. So I go to T.E. and type the commands to get Super User access, then cd sdcard to go into the directory, then cd download because this is where my file is located, then I type pm install ****.apk.
I get a line of command that says: a) pkg: ****.apk and then b) Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE], and then the command line just goes back to my download folder directory.
I've had this issue before on my Galaxy S3, but can't remember how I ended up resolving the issue. Think I did a factory data reset/wipe, which I don't want to have to do to my Xoom. So any assistance would be much appreciated. I do understand that your device was a Galaxy ACE, but I wouldn't think it would matter as to what the device is, since it is the same install method/command for any Android device essentially. Hope someone can help out. If not, I may have to post in another Device Thread (Motorola Stingray Xoom I would assume).
Many thanks in advance, and I will click the Thank You, if any responses come through.
Really appreciate for the guide man

Hi DannyShane,
Not sure if this is still relevant and you are around here, since it's been a very long time and I stopped using Android
I am not an Android geek but here are my 2 cents...
You need to keep .apk file on the root of the SD CARD instead of a folder. IIRC, I had the same exact error which you had mentioned, I was trying to install .apk which was placed in a folder and it didnt work., then I had to move the .apk file to root and it worked flawlessly.
Extremely sorry for the very late response though. I use my secondary e-mail for this forum and missed replies on this thread.
@ All others who have replied, I am glad that, my little finding helped you guys.
Cheers :angel:
I have a few things to add to hsotnas answer. The insufficent space error seems to be a very generic error on android that can have various causes. Maybe there is something like this in the android source code:
PHP:
try{
installApk();
} catch (Exception ex){
output("Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]");
}
If you understand what I mean
I had this error myself a few days ago and for me it was caused by some left over files in the /data/app-lib directory. It was a self-developed application and I added a library to this directory manually. As I uninstalled the application, it wasn't removed and the reinstall failed with the above mentioned error. So make sure the directories /data/data/app.package.name/ and /data/app-lib/app.package.name/ are empty.
I tried this, to install the play store apk. But I get the error INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_URI. What is this error refering to?

Me too same thing happens when I try to install 3.apk

Mine are backups of play store
Thankyou for this tutorial... IT WORKS.. Can't believe it.. You made my day. Thankyou :good:
I'm trying to recover an old tablet and need to install a file manager... the touch screen inst working so I thought terminal would do the job... but .APK's dont show when I go to the root of the SD card and type 'ls'
An ideas?
Thanks it works

[Q] can't get token id on htc desire x

hi guys, i'm new in this forum, and i'm new to android too, i just bought a htc desire x and want it to be root, but i have problem when trying to get token id in hasoon2000 HTC Desire X All-In-One Toolkit V2.0 [1-1-2013], it says C:\ Document is not recognized as an internal or external command openable program or batch file.
usb debugging is already connected, please any one kindly fixing my problem, thx
sorry for my bad english. btw i'm from indonesia
Did you follow these steps?
How To Use. THIS IS FOR THE PC ONLY. No plans ever for Mac or Linux. Sorry.
1. Download the toolkit DO NOT RENAME THE FOLDER
2. Download Winrar from here. Install it after you download it
3. Extract the folder anywhere.
4. Run the program.
thx for replying so quick, after i downloaded then i extract to desktop and just run the program by clicking the symbol written as desire, am i doing it right?
Try to unpack it somewhere else on a root of some partition of your PC, try to unpack it to non system partition.
ok thx, i'll try it tomorrow, i'm sorry i've to go home coz it's 11.41pm already in my town, and i'm still on friend's house.
thx anyway for your reply, i'll let you know the progress
hi nlooooo, i did what u told me to do and it worked, i unpacked to (Cdrive, but another problem came on my device when i clicked get token id.
here is the picture shows the problem
@nlooooo.....i just tried your way on rooting this device, and same problem came up on step 8 when getting token id, still it says C:\ Document is not recognized as an internal or external command openable program or batch file, i've found out my device still locked, is it because of the device still lock? here's the image shown
problem solved
hi nlooooo......i've rooted my device, just try to put all the downloaded file to C:drive, and followed your tutorial on your thread, and i succeeded, at least i saw superuser on my device, thx alot for your tutorial.
No problem, that's why we're here. If you see it then it should be it. Try to install some app that requires root privileges (Titanium Backup for ex) and see if it can get SU rights.
hi.....any recommendation of apps or what to do after this rooting? cos i really a noob in android and root things. thx

Go and open Superuser app, swipe to first screen and see if the binary is installed. Then go and clear data for Titanium and open it again.
If you still have the problem use some root explorer to check folder system/bin if there is a file named su.
