i know it just came out and all but my room mate got one and we were hoping someone will look for root i have an evo so i dont think i can help him much plus i dont know code so just wondering
thanks
I bought the Motorola Bravo which is similar to the Flipside and an app on the market called Z4ROOT was able to root the phone. It works on many phones not just the Bravo. Give that try and see if it works.
z4root does work for permanent root i have tried and can confirm

Copy z4root.1.3.0.apk to your SDK folder
ON YOUR PHONE:
go to Apps Menu->Settings->Applications->Development and check "USB debugging"
Plug in your phone, and have it set to "Charge only"
go to the command prompt, and type
cd C:\"PATH TO SDK" <ENTER>
Now, type
adb install z4root.1.3.0.apk
Once that is complete, you can now go find Z4 in your programs list. I chose "permanently root". Your phone will
reboot, and then you are rooted.
Unknown sources is still disabled at this point, but you can now install apps that require super user
Tonight, I will try to enable "Unknown Sources" on my flipside.

Got my Flipside rooted and non market apps allowed
I followed the instructions given at modmymobile dot com forum. Look up "fully unlock 3rd party apps backflip" It allowed me to root my phone and install non market apps. I tried and tried to follow the instructions given here, but i guess they weren't idiot proof. It is for the backflip, but it worked perfectly for my Flipside. I couldn't post the link here.
Someone found some typos in my scripts. I have updated them so they are accurate. Should make things run better.
Hey I kinda need some help. I've gotten through all the way to entering "adb install z4root.1.3.0.apk" into the command prompt but all I get is a message saying "adb" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Anyone have any ideas on how this could be happening?

Lets say you installed your SDK in the default folder, you would need to type
Code:
cd c:\"Program Files"
cd Android
cd appinventor-extras
Now, I put mine in c:\SDK, so all I type is
Code:
cd c:\SDK
you either must add the SDK to your PATH, or find the directory that you installed it to, and then try running adb from there. If adb.exe isn't in the folder, you aren't in the right folder.

RZ4root does not appear on the marketplace and when I click the link above it starts to download, then says the content is not supported on my phone.
Model num MB508 Motorola Flipside running Android 2.1 update 1.
You need to push it to the phone from a computer using adb to install z4root, now that it has been removed from the market.

adb.exe is not present in the SDK that you linked. Are you sure that is the SDK we need to root the Flipside?
You have to install it manually. It comes with the platform-tools.
how do i install adb.exe from platform-tools
lol, i may ask stupid questions but this one wasnt me, i shouldnt leave my laptop lying around haha

Notice:
For anyone having trouble rooting the Motorola Flipside with these instructions, after much trial and error I managed to get my girlfriend's rooted. I'll provide the method I took.
Note: The easiest way to do this is to have downloaded and extracted "android-sdk_r08-windows" directly to your (C: ) drive. Not under programs or another system folder.
Once you have it extracted to (C: ), copy and paste z4root.1.3.0.apk into the "android-sdk_r08-windows" folder. ADB.exe will most likely not be in here. What you have to do now is click on SDK Manager within the SDK folder. A Black Command window will pop-up, ignore it. A secondary window will pop-up prompting you to install the packages I went ahead and installed all of them (better if you don't know which to install).
Now that they've all been installed, a command line will state that ADB has to be restarted. Let it restart and it should say completed.
Now -- here's where everything was messing up. When you click open the SDK-R08 folder, you should have the z4root.apk file right there amongst a list of folders. Go to the "platform-tools" folder and in there you should see the ADB.exe file. Ignore that for now. While in platform-tools press Ctrl+A so that everything is highlighted. Right click and select Cut, back out to the main directory of the SDK R08 folder and select Paste so that the ADB.exe, .dll, and all the other files from within platform-tools is out and listed alongside the z4root.apk.
Next - Follow all of the instructions up to "Plug in your phone, and have it set to "Charge only" Like JonsJava said, open up command prompt (type in CMD in the "search programs and files bar"). If you extracted the "android-sdk-r08-windows" file directly to the (C: ) drive, all you have to type in is...
(Note: Before I go into that, it'll be easiest to rename the file "SDK" instead of the whole "android-sdk, etc, name... I'll complete the instructions assuming you renamed it to SDK. Continued below... all you have to type in is...
cd C:\SDK
(The next line below will look like this)
c:\SDK>
Here, type in... adb install z4root.1.3.0.apk
Total should look like... c:\SDK>adb install z4root.1.3.0.apk
Hit enter and it should go through a few instructions. From there look in the applist on your phone for z4root, click on it and select permanently root. Your phone will restart. From there you're rooted (test by downloading an app which requires root) and don't have to worry about the low memory issues every again. Glad I got the Captivate, lol. So much easier to root, rom, and overclock.
Last note:
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
This is what the main directory of the SDK folder should look like before you enter anything in the command line.
I don't seem to be able to get this...
I'm using x64 windows 7, I have a Flipside MB508 on 2.1, and I can't get this to work.
I followed all the instructions, updated all the platform-tools stuff, and now my problem lies with the driver, I believe.
I installed those Motorola drivers that were linked, with my phone unplugged, successfully..
copied the apk to C:\SDK...
found adb.exe in the platform-tools folder..
...and this happened..
C:\SDK\tools>cd C:\SDK
C:\SDK>cd platform-tools
C:\SDK\platform-tools>adb install C:\SDK\z4root.1.3.0.apk
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found
C:\SDK\platform-tools>adb install C:\SDK\z4root.1.3.0.apk
error: device not found
C:\SDK\platform-tools>_
"error: device not found" every time i try this
USB debugging is on, phone is plugged in set to charge only..
Windows even sees it, the taskbar eject icon says 'Eject MB508"
please please help me get adb to see my phone.. I really want to be able to root this thing!!
EDIT: I noticed the Motorola drivers are 32bit.. I'm going to try 32 bit windows 7 instead of 64 bit and see if I get more successful results
EDIT 2: Bazinga!! Installed Win7 32 bit on my other HDD, booted up, followed the steps again, worked flawlessly! Thanks a lot for the easy instructions, got z4root installed, and my phone worked with permanent root

You wrote in here that once rooted, thebphone would no longer have low memory issues...i rooted my wife's phone, was able to sideload applications (but for some strange reason I am now unable to, as adb command prompt states 'device not found')- but she still gets low memory issues at least 2-3 times a week...
I should just hold up a sign...

Link2sd? What does this do? I briefly looked at the thread, but it is not entirely clear. The flip side is running 2.1. With this app, can we free up space by moving apps to the sd card? I thought that was only possible in 2.2?

Ive tried the black prince video, the unlockr method and the original xda perm root guide and my G2 will not perm root. Seriously need some help.
do you have adb and sdk installed?
>
no such thing!
its just smarter than you (;
lol
it is funny that you mention the black prince video, because that is what i used. im not sure, but i followed that video exactly and got it my first try. just watch the video very carefully, and follow EVERYTHING that he does and it should work. if not, then i am really not sure. obviously, you just need "S-off"
Are you using Visionary ? I would suggest the rage method, IMHO it's a lot more reliable and you can see if anything goes wrong because you're using individual commands.
i know its possible because I rooted my friends G2 just days before I got mine. I don't have adb, to be honest as soon as i see that it takes more than just installing a program on my pc, i flee, and its not because im new to android or rooting or anything like that, i just don't have a whole lot of spare time. And i DO have S-OFF. Like ill do everything in the blackprince video, then after I'm done I'll got and test the root by typing SU in terminal, and it says permission denied. Or for any of the other methods, same thing.
Now if someone could give me a REAL WALK THROUGH on how to do it in ADB and not just assume I already know how to use it and use vocabulary I don't understand because I've never used the program, i would be willing to try that method. It's just all the walkthroughs for ADB ive found just assume I've already used it before and know how to use it.

Download HTC Sync from the HTC website (look in the downloads section), and install that on your PC. That'll give you all the USB drivers you need.
Download the Android SDK from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and install it on your PC. Be sure to read the guide on installing it at http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html
Plug your phone in to your PC using the original HTC cable (do not use a third-party cable for this) and type "adb devices" at your PC's command prompt, and tell us if it can see your phone. It should show up your phone's serial number (don't tell us exactly what that is, this is a public forum), but if there's an error then we need to sort that first.
Edit - partially prompted by this request, I've started an "adb for Noobs" guide (very much a work-in-progress) at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865685
installed htc synce, sdk, jdk for sdk, went into command prompt, typed adb devices, said adb was recognized as any kind of command.
and thank you for starting that guide, definitely something that needed to be done.

when you type adb devices does it recognize your device?
Super easy way.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834228 just copy paste the codes.
Your phone might be s-off, but not allowing you to do any su commands. Mine was, but I just installed rom manager and it flashed clockwork recover no problem, then I flashed cyanogen and everything was good. Go into hboot and just make sure it says s-off, then do the rom manager bit. Try it and see if it works.
no it doesnt do anything. just says its not a command. and ive already looked at that link, i'm already lost when it tells me to navigate to a folder in a command window.
yeah, but i cant use rom manager since i dont have super user permissions. do i just temp root then try to install a rom? that seems sketchy. haha.
Earlier you said that you have S-OFF. If this is the case, then just open up Market and download Superuser by ChainsDD. Then you should be good to go.

When you type "adb" on your PC, Windows needs to know where to find the "adb" program to run it. So you either need to specifically add the directory containing adb to your Windows PATH variable (which you can do in the environmental variables section, which will be in different places on different operating systems - on XP you need to right-click on My Computer, then select Properties, then Advanced, then the "Environmental Variables" button) - or you need to cd to where adb is stored under where you installed the Android SDK, and run it from that folder.
pretend youre explaining this to a five year old...
ok, which operating system do you have on your PC ?
Where did you install the Android SDK, i.e. which folder on the PC did you put it in ?
never mind guys, did what that dude said and just installed a rom with temp root and im all good now. thanks for everyones help though, sorry for my lack of knowledge in adb and what not.
In the process of following the rooting wiki, had hella problems getting adb working. Got adb connected finally, got the money sign, tried first instruction, got adbermission denied. What could be the problem? Did a google search as well. I have the contents of adb tools, in the same place as g free, as it is completely impossible to start up adb shell, and then navigate to a completely different folder. Also, before moving adb tools, tried long addresses of the gfree stuff, same deal.
Did you do "adb shell" and then you tried more adb commands and got "permission denied" ?
If so, then that's because "adb shell" starts a command prompt session on your phone, and the adb commands need to be run on your PC, not your phone. So don't do the "adb shell" first.
So wait a second, you're saying that the wonderful wiki, either is in the wrong order, or requires me to follow the pc, and phone steps simultaneously? Because im running them from my pc. Which would be implied by my saying im following the wiki. Fyi, i meant the one on the g2, involving rooting the g2, on the xda-dev site. I've done this before, i know how to use adb. this is the first time i have rooted a g2. Don't mean to sound like a ****, but you basically didnt read anything i wrote.
The Wiki isn't in the wrong order. But IMHO it's very confusing that it shows a $ prompt when it shows "adb push" etc, because that makes it looks like it is run on the phone. But it's assuming you're running from Linux/Mac. On a PC the prompt for your adb commands would be C:\ or similar.
The Wiki doesn't tell you to run "adb shell"
So the answer to my question was yes, it works, but i had to wait 5 minutes to post this. I dont understand why there cant be a note that, unless you put adb into your path, cmd isnt going to recognize it unless its in the folder you're using. I feel no need to put a tool that i will use maybe once a year at most into path. also, when i just checked the wiki now, i noticed how the dollar signs had changed to c:/ ha ha. and sorry about the rudeness, at first it just seemed like you were making fun of me.
jenlow said:
Okay, so before i opened the adb shell from cmd, when i would type adb push, i would get adb is not recognized as an internal or external command. so, my solution of putting the adb tools into gfree, should work now once i cd to the gfree folder?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's an issue with your path not being setup properly on your PC. You can adb adb's folder to the path to mean you can run it from anywhere. Otherwise you need to put the gfree tools etc in the same folder as adb, then cd to there and run the commands.
Or if the path is setup properly, cd to where the gfree tools are and start doing your "adb push" etc from there.
I have just edited the Wiki to show a "C:\" prompt for the stuff that's run on the PC, to try and avoid this confusion.
Did it work ?

the "permission denied" thing... from the phone? Or from the computer? You know you need to be root in order to access the hardware, or at least set the permissions on the hardware to be accessible to your user account....???
And... you DID enable adb on the phone side, didn't you?
I used the Wiki and am now perm rooted. A few tips that may help you since they helped me to get it done. I opened a command prompt and noted the default path that opened. For me it was C:\Users\Ed . I used windows explorer to navigate there and open up the Ed folder and created a new folder in Ed that I named pr. This is where I unzipped both of the gfree zip files...into that same folder. When temp rooting and perm rooting, I simply opened up the command prompt, it opened to C:\Users\Ed and then I typed cd pr then I hit enter. That set me up to input the commands in the right place both times and it worked out just fine.
Another thing that I noticed. After temp rooting, I had to ctrl alt del to open up task manager and close down adb.exe (as noted in the instructions that appeared in terminal emulator). I couldn't load adb again until I closed it down and let it restart itself. When I entered the first command in the perm root process adb started up again by itself and all went well.
Good Luck! It is well worth it. I now have Cyanogen's latest stable build loaded along with the Google apps package that I found online.

OH! yeah, it did work. i thought i said that somewhere ha. I am currently running CM 6.1.1 now. I've decided that since the adb file, and necessary files are tiny i can just move them around to whatever i need to use adb for. Path editing should only be done by hand in linux And jesus CM has improved since i had it on my cliq. I'm like 90% sure i'm going to make a donation out of the school funds.

I've tried root and my cell phone, but it is not. I've tried almost everything I have .. First I tried to root using the terminal emulator''''by typing different commands ..
Also, I tried the program''Visionary''but when I pressed the application so that it was held to root, but then the screen goes black, and I had to press the home button to get out of the situation ..
Also tried I saw another app called ''Universal androot'' and when I pressed root, then came the''Failed! No ~~~~~~~~~ Fu goo ..'' I also tried''app ''superoneclick I pressed the root, also came the''error: protocol fault (no status)''
What should i suppose to do, to fix this problem.. please reply

None of those apps work with the G2 to perm root without extra steps. And in that case only Visionary. You need to check out the vision wiki page.
Ed thoroughly described how to make it work. I did the exact same thing he did and got it last night.

What method did you use to root your cliq, and did you still have 3G? I have stock motoblur 2.1 on it now, I have it for a backup phone (got a G2), but I would like to root it.
This is for n00bs like myself that had to search around before getting into this and doing it correctly. A lot was copied from the Inc S thread, but felt the instructions were needed here so no need for searching there and crowding their forum with our questions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039015
Psneuter exploit is working on DInc2, but because /system is locked on s-on phones, we can't copy su and superuser.apk into /system, apps required root access can't work.
The following procedure uses psenuter exploit to gain adb shell root, and then copy su (without privilege control ) and busybox into /sbin (which is on rootfs and in the global PATH list) to gain root access for apps.
The procedure:
1. Install the HTC Sync software or PDANet software to install drivers for your phone to Windows
2. Ensure that the device is in USB Debug mode, go to Settings > Applications > Development and "tick" USB debugging and plug in your phone to your PC
3. Unzip the attached .zip into a directory (like c:\adb)
4. Open a command prompt by going to start > run and running CMD, and cd to the directory where you extracted the .zip (like cd \adb)
5. Type "adb devices" > enter, and ensure that your device has been detected
6. Run the "pushroot.bat" file
7. Type "adb shell /data/local/tmp/getroot" > enter
8. Type "adb shell" > enter
9. You are now in # prompt. Type "/data/local/tmp/pushroot"
After the last step, a new # line appears. That's it! You're temporarily rooted
You have to redo steps 7, 8, 9 once you reboot your phone.
The procedure will have all apps gaining root access.
!!USE ON YOUR OWN RISK!!
Known working programs: Root explorer, Titanium backup, gscript lite, trasproxy 2.04, ...
Some apps check existence of su in /system/xbin , and reject to proceed if the su binary is not exist (like transproxy 3.08). For this kind of apps, this procedure won't help.
I run Bloat Freezer to rid the VZW apps
u can actually use the exact same process as the incS
I said that and linked to the Inc S thread for doing it
I just added in some steps for the issues I ran into, since it was my first time trying to do something like this and so others have a step by step to follow
And also so we have have something for this forum...thanks though
OK, question... if I do a temp root on the DInc2, then restore my wife's Titanium Backup to the new phone, can I also perminantly get rid of the VZW Bloatware, then reboot without Temp Rooting from that point on? (I know I will lose full Backups as well as SetCPU, etc. but will the Bloatware removal cause issues?)
I use Bloat Freeze and the VZW crap never comes back after a reboot when I have the "Alternate Freeze method" checked in the preferences, which is the Titanium Backup method
Maybe I am doing something wrong. I get to step #9 with
$ /data/local/tmp/pushroot and get
mount: operation not permitted
and a few more permission denied lines.
??? thanks in advance
Looks like the getroot did not work/run right, when you do step 8, the shell should start with the '#', not the '$'
Can somebody help me...after the last step, nothing happens. It just starts a new # line.

Disregard. I got it. How can I effectively get rid of the bloatware? I moved a lot of it from system/app to my sdcard, but when I rebooted and lost root, it all reappeared.

Use Titanium to freeze it. Don't delete it. Freezing works, but if you delete it it will just come back.

I have done all the steps correctly up until step 5, well the problem is after typing in adb service, i get an extensively long list of different commands, and then the next step is to type in pushroot.bat, and when i do, heres what i get in return
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: dervice not found
C:\adb>
I dont know the problem...i do have Ongoing HTC Charge. USB Debugging connected. And PdaNet Connect (USB)
What could be the problem?
That should be adb devices, not serices
After that, you should see your device listed. When you typed services, the list you got was basically a help list for adb commands, since you did not type a valid one
Double check to make sure your device is detcted, if it is not, go to Windows' Device Manager and make sure the proper drivers were installed for your DInc
Ah, i appreciate the quick response i really do. I did type in adb devices, and what i got back was
List of devices attached
Afterwards, i did type in "pushroot.bat" and got a reply with again the same thing, error;device not found
In my window's device manager, i do have Android Phone, however the picture is only shown as a hard drive, which idk if that would have any affect. But yes, i didnt install any drivers from windows recommendations, like when i plug it in, the normal driver window pops up, but apart from that, i never did anything else except for the PDAnet 3.0 driver
Am i the only person who tries to delete apps and when the phone is restarted they come right back on.

You must "freeze" them with bloat freezer or a similar app.

Ah, i appreciate the quick response i really do. I did type in adb devices, and what i got back was
List of devices attached
Afterwards, i did type in "pushroot.bat" and got a reply with again the same thing, error;device not found
In my window's device manager, i do have Android Phone, however the picture is only shown as a hard drive, which idk if that would have any affect. But yes, i didnt install any drivers from windows recommendations, like when i plug it in, the normal driver window pops up, but apart from that, i never did anything else except for the PDAnet 3.0 driver

Looks like your Dinc2 isn't being detected by your computer, watch you device manager when you plug in your phone and see what all is installed...sounds like that is the issue for you

Negative, Freezing works on the temp root after a reset, just make sure if you use Bloat Freeze that you select the alternative freezing option (Titanium Backup method) when you do it

There are a lot of things that could prevent adb from picking up your device... easiest would be to double-check that you have the USB Debugging option enabled on the device. The next easiest would be to make sure you have the correct drivers installed. I'd recommend using an app like USBDeview to see an extended list of all your installed USB drivers, and then deleting anything related to HTC/Android/adb. You can then reinstall the correct drivers which I believe LowFire mentioned in his OP.

Ahh! OK, I had to do a Master Reset of my wife's Inc2, previously it had TempRoot working.
I followed the instructions from the beginning after it was reset, but I cannot get TempRoot access. MyBackup Pro, Titanium, Root Explorer all say there is no root access. I get the phone listed at adb devices and get no errors running the commands. Anyone have issues gaining root?

I have the same issue...just another # line after typing in the string from step 9 and hitting enter
What did you do?
Hey guys,
I'd like to ask for a tutorial on creating a simple apk with a simple UI (like a button which executes a command on press) which will first ask for root rights, and then it executes commands like in adb or in terminal emulator. (I want to remove several system applications, so I need SU right, and then I can re-mount /system and then rm the .apks), and on the other hand has another function, which checks for some applications running, and if, then closes them
Thanks in advance!
Try in the general programming thread
