The new YouTube.apk just needs to be placed in '/system/app'. What I did was remove the original YouTube.apk and put the new one in its place and voila. Here is the method adapted for Windows (I think it's all right for Windows). This is also assuming you rooted with a one click root that included the remount script and that you have adb on your computer (the one click rooter should have adb included with it).
1. in the cmd prompt, go to the folder where you have adb and type:
Code:
adb.exe shell
2. inside shell:
Code:
$ su
# remount rw
# mkdir /sdcard/backup
# cp /system/app/YouTube.apk /sdcard/backup
# rm /system/app/YouTube.apk
# exit
$ exit
3. now in the cmd prompt again:
Code:
adb.exe push \path\to\YouTube.apk /system/app
4. Reboot the phone.

ok i get to remount rw but the when i type in the nect code it says
mkdir falied for /sdcard/backup read-only filesystem
I install it using terminal emulator.
All I do is type
Su
#rm /system/app/YouTube.apk
#cp /sdcard/DirectoryWithTheYoutubeApp/YouTube.apk /
system/app
Or after you rm, just use the "My Files" app and go on your sdcard and click YouTube.apk and it'll install and work fine. But remember to sign out of youtube before you close it by going to your page and clicking sign out or else it'll keep force closing after you start it up.
I hope I helped...

you guys are gonna freaking kill me. ALL THE TROUBLE I WAS HAVING WAS BECAUSE I HAD MY SDCARD MOUNTED THE WHOLE TIME I WAS TRYING TO DO THIS THE MINUTE I TRIED IT WITHOUT IT BEING MOUNTED IT WORKED...IM SO DUMB!!!!! LOL BUT THANKS FOR THE HELP ALL OF U!!!!!! U GUYS ROCK!!!! N SO DOES THE NEW UTUBE APP .....BTW I UNDERSTAND UR NOT SUPPOSED TO SIGN IN TO IT RIGHT???
I just uninstalled the original, put the modded youtube.apk in the SDX backup folder and installed (restored) it with SDX stock app remover. Simple, fast and no typing required.
Glad you got it worked out though.
me 2!!! this app rocks
Glad it's working! Having the SD card mounted while trying to adb is a common mistake and always a good first troubleshooting check.
Thanks go to goroh_kun, ayati and DoomLord. All the usual warnings about attempting to root a phone apply. This works on a phone with build number V16R24C, which is current as of this writing. I can't speak for any later updates.
You will need the following:
Java SDK (required for android dev kit – get the JDK): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
ADK: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
ADB driver: http://spf.fmworld.net/oss/usb_driver/f-05d/index.html
F-05D rooting files: http://ayati.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/files/F05Droot.zip
zergRush files (tested with v4): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319653
Optional:
- a terminal application of your choice
- busybox installer from the market
- English versions of the .bat files (remove the .txt extension): http://pastebin.com/RBCWvzES and http://pastebin.com/EQfjpDAM
Part 1, installing the ADB driver:
1. Install the JDK
2. Install the ADK
3. Go to C:\Users\YourUsername\.android and edit the adb_usb.ini file.
4. Add 0x04C5 on a separate line at the bottom. Save and close the file.
5. Reboot the computer or restart adb
6. On the phone, press home, settings, applications – toggle Unknown sources to On.
7. Same place, press development and toggle USB debugging to On.
8. Connect the phone to the PC, and when prompted, navigate to the location where you extracted the ADB driver.
Part 2, rooting the phone:
1. Extract the zergRush and rooting files to the same folder. (put the English versions in the same spot if want to use them instead).
2. With the phone connected and in debug mode, run the f05dsu.bat file (DO NOT RIGHT CLICK AND SELECT RUN AS ADMIN).
3. You first will get asked to go to Settings, Setting my body, Step/activity counter app, Pedometer use, is turned On. Press space after doing that.
4. You will then get asked to toggle the same setting OFF once, then back to ON. After doing that, press space and the phone will reboot
5. Wait for the phone to reboot and connect over USB properly. Press space when ready.
6. Files will be transferred over and the phone rooted. If you don't get any errors, press space and wait for the phone to reboot again.
7. The phone should now be rebooted, and you can install Busybox and Superuser from the market.
I had trouble getting the Busybox installers to work properly at first – the stericson one would wipe su and require re-running the f05dsu.bat, and the jrummy one would simply not start properly. I suggest trying the jrummy16 installer first just to see if it runs. In the end I had to do things manually to get it installed, but once that was done both installers worked fine.
Part 3, optional, installing Busybox manually:
1. If superuser has been lost, re-root the phone.
2. Open up your favorite terminal application and enter the following manually:
Code:
su
soff
mount -o rw,remount /system /system
dd if=/data/local/busybox of=/system/xbin/busybox
chown root.shell /system/xbin/busybox
chmod 04755 /system/xbin/busybox
/system/xbin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin
dd if=/data/local/su of=/system/xbin/su
chown root.root /system/xbin/su
chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
echo insmod /data/local/lsm_disabler.ko > /system/xbin/soff
chmod 755 /system/xbin/soff
At this point you should be able to do a "which su" and get /system/xbin/su as a response. If you don't get any response, Busybox is not properly installed (start over). Doing a "ls -ls /system/xbin/su" should also NOT return a symbolic link to Busybox – if it does, you'll need to copy over su from /data/local again. The same goes for soff. Once this is done, start up jrummy's Busybox installer to confirm the installed version of Busybox, and upgrade it if you want.
Thanks very much, worked well but sadly I managed to boot loop my phone after rooting it.
Now I need to SIM unlock the phone as the factory unlock code is gone.
F05D rooting
Hi there i have successfully rooted my Fujitsu F05D have root access but I can't seem to loads busy box, I have permission through superuser and it goes through the motions but at the end it says " install unsuccessful".
The files are in the system/bin folder but something is wrong. if I use busy box installer jrimmy16 it just say installing and keeps going and never stops if I got to to scripts and click fix file permissions
" run script" it too just spins round and round..
hmm any hints guys.
Don't do a forced install or whatever it's called, that's how I bootlooped and later SIM locked mine, still yet to send it back haha.
Hello, is this working?? I want to root my Docomo Fujitsu Arrows X F-10.. And also my phone keeps on rebooting Please help.. Any ideas why?

Hello,
I have a Blu Dash 3.5 and would like to install clockworkmod recovery and enable root access, but so far have not found anything. Could you help me?
thank you
I tried using SuperOneClick, Gingerbreak, zroot but all without success.
Anyone have any other option?

I managed to set up the android SDK on ubuntu but I get permission denied message when trying to copy the files to the /system
I suppose I have to remount the partition in RW to be able to put the files but no idea how to do this.

Well you can't without it being rooted, right now I just don't care about it anymore it's just a phone, & $30 isn't worth just freeing up some space. No guarantee that will make it run smoother without crashes either, that could just be a result of interface, so a bit of speed don't seem worth it to me, I have my own ringtones with ringdroid so I'm happy.
Everything having to do with extracting the boot.img requires it to be rooted otherwise I know enough about enough crapola already I could make that all spiffy and zabam if I wanted. I would just literally edit all the img files and provide a simple update.zip given I could get signing to work!
unfortunately I get nothing from fastboot at all, not sure it would help though. oem unlock stuff is all I recall about that besides it being a great wau to flash images to the phone
let me know if you make any progress, I'll put in my effort if you do anything at all that intices me to find a path to progress

fenrixarena, hope you get to find any progress on rooting this phone. I also agree with you that it is no worth the time or effort with this kind of phone but I think that the challenge is interesting . In my case I have no idea on how you may root it but I am sure it is possible i guess it all in find another compatible boot.img that can be rooted, right?
Regards,

What is the address of the site that charges $ 30? We can verify that other users would like to do and split the cost ...
I managed to make root ...
I found the CWM recovery and stock recovery for Qsmart.
I was very curious if it would work in BLU and ended up installing the CWM with fastboot. It did not work, the screen just stays with the BLU and not access the recovery.
Then I installed stock recovery and did not work ...
But I realized that Windows recognized the device connected and I recognized two units with unsupported format.
then returned to the prompt and saw that the ADB was working. I used the command 'adb shell' and to my surprise was how the cursor #
So without wasting time already put su and busybox in /system/ bin and superuser.apk in /system/app, I changed the permissions and restarted the phone. And the root was working perfectly. :victory:
Only one problem, I do not have the recovery installed.
I wonder how I can help you to make root without losing recovery
>>
I use Windowns 7 Pro x64 bits.
I installed the drivers in the SuperOneClick version 2.3.3.
With the drivers installed could use fastboot and adb command.
Turning on the phone + vol - access mode fastboot / bootloader
It would be good to get root without losing the recovery. Because we need him to compile a clockworkmod recovery.
I used the romdump and got the following files:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5rQL4bfhfPRZXhhZkg1Mkx5SHc/edit?usp=sharing
I used the mkfs.yaffs2 to convert the file system.tar for system.img
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5rQL4bfhfPRMGdaNnQ4b1RwclU/edit?usp=sharing
This system.img would function on another device?
okay, I am having one problem, what did you type for the permissions?
I've got superuser.apk pushed and the su in the /system/bin but when i try to chmod 777 it returns to -r- after I reboot!
Here's howto manually back up now that I have recovery adb root:
cat /proc/mtd
Then just cat (mtd#) > /sdcard/(image.img)
You can restore via fastboot flash

you get root access in adb shell?
send su to /system/bin with permission 6755.
busybox to /system/bin with permission 755.
and superuser.apk to /system/app with 644.
reboot your phone
then download terminal emulator on your phone and enter the command su

I can upload the cwm.img & adb I used + fastboot. Not all adb.exe will recognize the phone. Also drivers from qsmart for adb bridge.
1 boot holding vol down + power (about 15 sec.)
Fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
Then turn phone off.
Boot holding vol UP + Power (about 15 sec)
Adb push su /system/bin
Adb push busybox /system/bin
Adb push superuser.apk /system/app
adb shell
~# chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
~# chmod 755 /system/bin/busybox
~# chmod 644 /system/app/superuser.apk

Thank you so much Fenrixarena!! You are awesome :good::good::good:. I still can believe it, i thought it was a lost hope... I really appreciate for uploading the files I am patient enough to wait another day
Follow the ADB and the recovery I've used.
The drivers installed by SuperOneClick, but have these here:
32 bits - http://www.mediafire.com/?21na032gnzbfza2
64 bits - http://www.mediafire.com/?1hrwo325cb1ej2w

interesting, I got a cwm4s12.img that's larger(4.51) and because of having a 64bit laptop without 32bit support I had to use a smaller ADB (158kb) to be able to recognize the phone and only on regular usb debugging does superoneclick install drivers which was useless since I needed the drivers to work in recovery.
If those files don't work for you I will upload mine
I got my files from foreign thread, and since I download so many versions and custom versions of programs like adb I'm not sure where it came from !!
oh, and he rooted the phone first, I only did it on a more bothersome platform.

THIS GUIDE NO LONGER WORKS BECAUSE ANDROID ISN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE BACK IN 2013-14.
PLEASE STOP WASTING TIME TO FOLLOW THIS OBSOLETE METHOD 1. PLEASE REFER ONLY TO METHOD 3
The Ultimate Guide to Rooting any Android Device Manually !!!!
Wanting to ROOT Your Phone but can't do Because Of No rooting Guides or want to learn to root any device ? Then , This Guide Is For YOU
OK So lets start....
**What You Need**
1.Your Unrooted Android Device.
2.ADB Drivers Installed On Your PC. If you Don't Have Download From Here :
Code:
adbdriver.com/
3. The Most Inportant Root Kit Made By Me (N'ayam Amarsh'e) - Download From The Attachment.
4.Strength And Courage 'Coz Rooting Voids Your Warranty... If You have a samsung device then Don't Worry Your warranty is gone forever... But if you own any other, maybe you can void it or maybe......
I've Written Android Device as ADV to make it more easy....
**Steps**
So you have the adb drivers installed let's go....
1. Open The root kit by Extracting The Rootkit with WinRAR....
2.Turn 'USB DEBUGGING' 'ON' in your ADV...
3. Connect your ADV to Your PC...
4.In the root kit Open Cmd.exe File ... [ IF YOU CAN'T OPEN CMD, GOTO C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/ COPY CMD .EXE TO YOUR ROOTKIT FOLDER]
5. In CMD window Type the following command...
Code:
->adb devices *Your device will get listed in the window if it doesn't check your adb drivers or if you have followed the steps properly...
->adb push busybox /data/local/tmp
->adb push su /data/local/tmp
->adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp
If you Succeed Move On ...
6.Then You need Root Shell Type :
Code:
adb shell
Note that you see a "$" sign in the command prompt. That means you are not in 'su' shell.
7.Next run the following commands in the shell to change permissions and get some limited privileges for the Superuser files:
Code:
->chmod 6755 /data/local/tmp/su
->chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
->chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
{Note}The names of the files are case sensitive!
8.Done ? Now You need to open a copy of linux which has nautilus... So enter your linux (I recommend using ubuntu 11.4) and type in the terminal (ctrl+alt+T)
Code:
->sudo nautilus
this will open nautilus with root privileges...
You can just boot it from USB so no hassle of installing it... http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/download-ubuntu-linux-11-04-iso-cd-dvd-images-natty-narwhal.html
Having your ADV connected with USB to PC switch it off and put it in download/recovery mode...
superlouro said:
DEVICE OFFLINE?
! SOLUTION ! (click me)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
9.In The Exploring Window navigate to
Code:
/data/local/tmp
and move/cut 'su' and 'busybox' to
Code:
/system/bin
...
10.From the tmp Folder you went earlier Move/cut 'Superuser.apk' to
Code:
/system/app
11.Now Reboot You ADV ... Congrats ! You're now ROOTED !
Many Users Are Having Problem with This Method, If you can't do the method 1. Try Method 2.
METHOD 2
PLEASE DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THIS METHOD, THIS IS JUST FOR A TRY, MY BROTHER FOUND THIS METHOD TO BE WORKING, I HAVEN'T TRIED IT YET!
This is linux based method, It's quite easy if you follow every step correctly...
You need to download psneuter, https://github.com/tmzt/g2root-kmod/tree/master/scotty2/psneuter
When you have it execute the following...
Code:
adb devices
Code:
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
This will copy the file to your device and now we'll execute it..
Code:
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 777 psneuter
./psneuter
Now You'll see
Code:
adb kill-server
adb devices
adb shell
now # will appear in place of $, or after typing $su.
Code:
# mount -o remount,rw -t rfs /dev/block/st19/system
# exit
$ adb push busybox /system/bin
$ adb push su /system/bin
$ adb install Superuser.apk
$ adb shell
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
# mount -o remount,ro -t rfs /dev/block/st19/system
# exit
$ adb reboot
Now your device will reboot and you can see SuperUser App in your app drawer...

that means you have not properly pushed the files into the directory.... Try installing adb drivers again and do the same steps...Good luck
When you open cmd just type ' adb devices' if your device gets listed then you can start if it doesn't check your drivers...
After uinstall all adb drivers and phone drivers comand prompt shows me a device code and status ofline. At the begining i install atached to therad package of adb drivers. But lately some where in Internet I find some update package of adb drivers. And there was the same sort of files like in your package. I put them there and replace and after that adb shows the device is working and status is online but your guide still does not work. Question is where is real problem ? I checked and Debug Mod is on, drivers are installed.

OK you will need to do it with Droid Explorer
OR
linux and in the linux you'll have to type 'sudo nautilus' it'll open it with root privilages...

Hi! First thank you for that guide. I rooted several devices but with a noname(10.1" A10 dual core) china tablet I have some problems so I hope your solution works.
I have some problems/questions:
1. Step 5: Are you sure it's:
Code:
adb push su /data/local/tmp
instead of
adb push su /data/local/tmp[B][SIZE="5"]/[/SIZE][/B]
I'm currently not able to look at the data folder but if I change the directions e.g to /test/local/tmp it just creates a "tmp" file and overwrites the file with every push command.
2. Step 6: If it's a $ it's not rootet, what should be there if it's rooted? I have a # there. Rootchecker says it's rooted since the beginning, but I cant access with superuser/supersu etc.
3. Step 8 doesn't work. I use a virtual box with ubuntu 13.10(Stinson: new is always better?) for the first time. With "sudo nautilus" I get the message that root access is not granted(failed to register client). I used "gksudo nautilus" instead... does that matter?
4. I can't connect my device to the virtual box. I tried to add the usb device but didn't work. USB Developer Android[0223] is in virtual box connected. However, I dont know where to find it in ubuntu. I'm a ubuntu noob sorry :/
5. Is there another way to get rw permissions?
Thanks in advance :good:
thankyou for information i think is hard for me
Very nice, ty

Hi! First thank you for that guide. I rooted several devices but with a noname(10.1" A10 dual core) china tablet I have some problems so I hope your solution works.
I have some problems/questions:
1. Step 5: Are you sure it's:
Code:
adb push su /data/local/tmp
instead of
adb push su /data/local/tmp[B][SIZE="5"]/[/SIZE][/B]
I'm currently not able to look at the data folder but if I change the directions e.g to /test/local/tmp it just creates a "tmp" file and overwrites the file with every push command.
2. Step 6: If it's a $ it's not rootet, what should be there if it's rooted? I have a # there. Rootchecker says it's rooted since the beginning, but I cant access with superuser/supersu etc.
3. Step 8 doesn't work. I use a virtual box with ubuntu 13.10(Stinson: new is always better?) for the first time. With "sudo nautilus" I get the message that root access is not granted(failed to register client). I used "gksudo nautilus" instead... does that matter?
4. I can't connect my device to the virtual box. I tried to add the usb device but didn't work. USB Developer Android[0223] is in virtual box connected. However, I dont know where to find it in ubuntu. I'm a ubuntu noob sorry :/
5. Is there another way to get rw permissions?
Thanks in advance :good:

For Your First Answer You Need not to worry /tmp and /tmp/ are the same...
2.Have you tried typing 'adb shell' then ' su ' if yes there's your solution.... If not then you have problem with su binary or busybox....
3.You have an Ubuntu 11.4 .iso file so burn it to a blank disk and boot your live disk .... It should be all right then...
4.Answer in 3....
5.Answer in 3....
6.Press Thanks if I helped...
bro im confused wt to do exactly in that sudo ... step pls give a brief explaination
After dabbling around in some murky waters trying to achieve root, and going trough some 2010 stuff I did, I did discover a method I devised back then works to some extent, strangely.
Using fastboot (boot) to a TWRP recovery image (TWRP_v2.8.6.0_honami-f2fs_from_cm12.1_150423.img), mounting /system, and pushing a version of busybox, bash and using the supersu su binary already in the TWRP recovery image.
boot-new.img.bz2.zip (rename to boot-new.img.bz2 before extracting -.Just TWRP_v2.8.6.0_honami, with a different kernel and dt image included to boot from fastboot)
bash and busybox i compiled from git and debian sources yesterday/today
Basically this; (use only for reference.)
Code:
# Magically push all files in place here.
# Optionally, move /system/bin/sh out of the way and link /system/bin/sh to bash
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 755 /system/bin/bash && chown 0.0 /system/bin/bash"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox && chown 0.0 /system/bin/busybox"
# TWRP
#./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/su /system/bin/_su"
./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/su /system/bin/su"
./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/supolicy /supersu/su /system/xbin"
./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/libsupol.so /system/lib/"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 0644 /system/lib/libsupol.so && chown 0.0 /system/lib/libsupol.so"
./"$ADB" shell "cp -r /supersu /system/app/SuperSU"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 0755 /system/app/SuperSU && chown 0.0 /system/app/SuperSU && chmod 0644 /system/app/SuperSU/SuperSU.apk"
#
#./"$ADB" shell "chmod 4755 /system/bin/_su && chown 0.0 /system/bin/_su"
#./"$ADB" shell "echo "busybox su -c "_su"" > /system/bin/su" # or busybox su -c "_su -c /system/bin/sh-org"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 4755 /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su* && chown 0.0 /system/bin/su system/xbin/su*"
# Quite dangerous - Suggest moving passwd when in normal use
./"$ADB" shell "echo "root::0:0:0:/root:/system/bin/sh" > /system/etc/passwd"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 0644 /system/etc/passwd"
Next step, to remount /system with write permissions from a normal boot, I think, would be to modify boot.img/default.prop and set "ro.secure=0"
Thought I had done this prior, I run with touch disabled as I cracked my screen (impressively massive drop of at least 30 cm! - onto object.. ) ... I could not remount system when I first tried.
Notes:
If i adb in early i can use supersu/su to gain root, when system is loaded busybox su -c ""supersu/"su" works. - NO AUTH
Hm, updated SuperSU via google play and suddenly it realized it was rooted . = ) Still keeping the supersu/su intact in /system/*bin
Thankfully I've been unsuccessful in grabbing root from /data/local/tmp this way as of now. Seems the permissions are reset. Though getting root without any auth is a serious matter no matter how you flip the coin. At least it's not as easy as pushing an archive to /data/local/tmp and running busybox su -c su. Also with a modified busybox you could easily skip the part where I write a /etc/passwd with no password.. Incredibly handy if you need root without Android running, say with setprop ctl.stop zygote, media and bootanim. But incredibly dangerous!
Fastboot to attached TWRP and install [STABLE][2016.02.02] SuperSU v2.65 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 - drop the zip to somewhere on the device and use the install function, i installed supersu via google play first. Attached is the kernel image i'm using. On a side-note, the script above failed .
Apart from this, the attached gnu-tools i will have to update... Got a neon flags optimized for out cpu and all, but that's for a different day.
Cheers, have a good one mates
Noob question: what is the difference between using this method for root and kingroot method? Which is better to use?
I've not checked Kingroot. But my thought is not to rely on nasty kernel exploits and have an as clean as possible root. Kingroot was not working when i first started this post. Also i dont leave system read write mountable. To do system modification i fastboot the TWRP image

Kingroot give you root but not supported and their binary are weired but when you replace it with supersu you can't mount system read/write cause of ric but thanks to Chainfire and his tools I find way to root with kingroot and replace it by supersu and disable ric
Noticed my boot img was rebooting sometimes, went off and updated my compiler toolchain and had a look at the kernel and recent developments.
Had a look at X-Honami v6 and ported some parts of that effort to the latter Sony kernel used in 14.6.a.1.216.
* Messed around with memutils and implemented ARM_PLD_64BYTE and USE_LDRDSTRD_OVER_LDMSTM atop memutils from the Xperia-dev unified kernel. - this needs some testing but appears to be stable at least with the options turned on.
* Slight overclock of GPU to 533 mhz, and underclock to 27 mhz on idle.
* Has kexec hardboot
I cannot busybox su -c su with this kernel. Which is only useful for developers anyway. You'd be wise in running some benchmarks before and after the flash.
Kernel needs to be flashed via fastboot.

Thanks a lot..
I still suggest using the fastboot method with the TWRP boot image attached in the first post, mount the system partition, select install Zip SuperSu, forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 .
Cheers
I've got a kernel-copyleft-14.6.A.1.xxx to finish up and officially forum post ; ) https://github.com/threader/kernel-copyleft-14.6.A.1.xxx-backports/ . And update and official post might come this week. Been running this for months now and its stable, and fast, whee.

I just used kingroot, unlocked bootloader, flashed dual recovery, flashed prerooted Rom. That's it. Easy as pie.
