i have been using This Guide and after obtaining temporary root i cannot get past this code '/data/local/tmp/root'
when i enter that i get:
/data/local/tmp/root: /data/local/tmp/busybox: permission denied
mkdir failed for /system/xbin, file exists
/data/local/tmp/root: /data/local/tmp/busybox: permission denied
Unable to chmod /system/xbin/busybox: no such file or directory
/data/local/tmp/root: /system/xbin/busybox: not found
cp: not found
cp: not found
unable to chmod /system/bin/su: no such file or directory
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also, got my phone a couple days ago so i have wifi calling (automatic OTA from the box?)
Try downloading Titanium backup from market. Once it installs, open it up, hit the PROBLEMS button, which should reinstall busybox. Then try again. If that doesnt work i dont know what else to suggest sorry.

try following this guide, it worked for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2
thanks for your quick responses guys, i'm trying both suggestions starting with the first one and i'll update in a bit.
so nothing work
I used to be on Temp root with Visionary and I just used this thread below to get permroot. I know you are trying the other way but maybe you can try this way. It is much easier and no ADB needed. Hope this helps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928160
first post didn't work. I did the second method posted by edkeys and the only problem i had was installing the drivers. to get around this i downloaded pdanet for android on my pc and i installed the program and it automatically installed the G2 drivers for me. I now have permanent root.
THANKS GUYS!
Awesome now you get to go have some real fun with ROMs and Kernels

use this method my friend: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833965
with visioary r11 tho because it seems to be working better for most. youll get temp root, and then perm root after doing the steps shown in the guide. if you need any help, just let me know.

I permrooted pre-OTA, and received the OTA shortly after rebooting, which broke my permroot. I wiped, downgraded, installed OTA and tried permrooting again but now when I type su, term returns 'su: unknown user root' rage works to drop me in a root term, but following the process does not succeed in giving me permroot.
When trying to find any more information about the error I've been getting, I've tried 'whoami' and 'passwd' and they both return 'uknown uid 0'
Any thoughts?

whoami and passwd are failing because there is no passwd file. But it's saying you are uid 0, so you are the root user.
What happens when you try the rage method, do you get error messages ? Which bit isn't working exactly ?
If you got temp root then try the gfree method for perm root.

following the steps everything goes well until
# /data/local/tmp/root
i get:
mkdir failed for /system/xbin, File exists

The "mkdir failed" message is normal, just ignore that.
But the "cp" message indicats a problem. Check the files on your sd card, have you already got a folder called "su" on it before you started this procedure ? Because that will make things go wrong, there needs to be a *file* su on your SD card, after you have copied it across from your PC using "adb push". If you already have an "su" directory, rename it as something else, then start again with the procedure.
Hi everyone! I got the Nitro yesterday and I have tried EVERY possible method under the sun to get root onto my 2.3.5 V10J stock firmware. I am generally good at stuff, but the unbricking tutorial really confuses me. Is there any other way to just get CWM onto the phone and then install a pre-rooted ROM? Or an easier way to root? I tried superoneclick a 100 times, and it just behaves read only. does not allow the software to access root. This is the error I get with all rooting scripts!

Apparently there is atm no way to get cwm or cwm recovery on your phone w/out going through oh no!'s rom which as a prerequisite you must follow the unbricking method.
If you want go to my profile and check out my recent posts in the nitro general subforum and youll see my little journey....which others were annoyed with ...lmao.
I am currently rooted, running stock ics and love it. I have no issues phone runs near perfect.
I did not "unbrick" my phone and just flashed an older rom (v18) and rooted.
Sparky's root method is the only method that will root this phone via ics.
I made a thread explaining in detail some steps that were not mentioned.
Dont bother with doomlord, oneclick.
Since the tapatalk search function sucks balls use the xda search function from the actual browser.
Hope that helps. Maybe someone else will chime in.
Dont fear the unbrick.
Take your time
Read slow and also read through other peoples posts and what they did wrong, how they remedied it blah blah...
Dont take any short cuts unless for sure, you know exactly what you are doing.
Make sure you have everything ready and have read through prior to doing it.
Nothing to fear flashing is pretty straight forward.
Just take your time.

I went from Stock ATT 2.5.6 V10J to ATT STOCK V10F .Using [GUIDE] Unbrick, Root, And Install CWM by mattman86 . Its long but doable its not even that long really .O tip uninstall all the drivers you might have installed and use the one that come with the unbricking pack ,its the key to the whole thing. Im in CM10 Nightly now .Good luck and dont get frustrated its rootable its just not a one click root.
Just keep trying to run the root. I used super one click and it took me at least 20-30 attempts to successfully root. If it asks you if your version is 2 or higher or fails to push any files to the phone, the root will not take. Just reboot the phone and keep trying.
Try using viperMOD PrimeTime v4.6, that's a lot easier and faster, despite what everyone else says, you can root 10j.
Good Luck
