Now you don't have to worry about z4root with the release of my very own
[B]one click root and busybox installer[/B] for the Samsung Continuum.
Essentially what the one click does is root your phone, install busybox, and copy z4root and superuser to /system/app. z4root is included for easy unroot if you ever need to unroot and run the script again.

Recovery mode

Hi GN users -
Rooted my phone this evening and all (I thought) was going well. I've been trying to do a backup via rom manager but when the phone reboots i get the android with a red exclamation point. This happens when trying to get to recovery mode using ROM manager or just using the volume buttons. Can't get a clean back up.
Used the following files:
recovery-clockwork-5.8.3.1-toroplus.img
Superuser-3.0.7.efghi-signed
Should I have used CWM-SuperSU-v0.87?
If i can access the boot loader can I go ahead and flash with CWM?
Thanks
Denver

So the problem is that you flashed custom recovery and when you reboot it reverts to stock recovery? If so it's because you're on the stock ROM and it's got a script that restores stock recovery upon reboot. You can either install a custom ROM or do this:
juliano_q said:
-remount /system in read/write mode (use something like the Root Explorer app or ES File Explorer; both have root modes (check the app's settings) for remounting /system as writable)
-rename the /system/recovery-from-boot.p to /system/recovery-from-boot.p-bak
(note: you could delete it, but renaming is much safer since its easily reversible)
yes, it is easier to use a script, but in my opinion it is much better to know what is going on behind it.

He must not have if he is getting the broken android. So no he did not. The one I linked is the correct zip to flash to keep recovery and root without having to delete all that stuff. I know I did the exact same thing when I first attempted to root my phone.

And I flashed the zips he posted when I rooted. I trust that Bigrushdog does know what he's doing but that zip seems to have a lot of things in there that he may or may not need. Like, why does it contain a boot.img? He only needs the SU binary to obtain root. His problem must be that he's rebooting. He should fastboot flash recovery, then fastboot reboot recovery and then flash the SU zip from there. And if he wants to stay on the stock ROM he should follow the instructions I posted. I'm not saying you're *wrong* but I am saying that I'm more right
EDIT: Rereading his post I'm pretty sure he does have root already, his problem is just that recovery isn't sticking which is a known issue with a known solution as I posted previously. Its the exact same thing on the Nexus S.

If anything we are equally correct and my method is much simpler. And yes the boot.img is required this is the stock kernel image without the recovery.sh that runs on the stock kernel. This will keep him from having to delete it manually. I know this because the same method was needed for my epic. You have to flash a tweaked stock kernel without the recovery.sh then flash the recovery. Then everything will stick. His issue is he didn't flash the tweaked kernel and upon booting the stock kernel deleted his custom recovery.

Read description:
Titanium Backup is an example of such an app. It may incorrectly detect the path to your internal storage for backups, and thus crash on backup/restore. You can fix this by going into preferences and selecting a folder under /storage/emulated/legacy as backup/restore path, not under /storage/emulated/0.

[MOD] Hboot 3.16.0.000 without red text on custom kernels.

This mod removes the red text from HBOOT with custom kernels.
It is a simple binary replacement of the text that would normally display with a long string of 0x20 (The character for spaces).
WARNING: THIS IS DANGEROUS, if your phone powers off while you are writing to the hboot, you CAN brick.
S-off, root, and busybox are required
Download:
http://www.cheatersedge.org/android/m8/hboot-no-red-text.img
SHA1: 8619b74b5f22459753498d89de38f47b23518f78
Installation (This can be done in normal boot mode, but booted to TWRP is a MUCH safer bet):
Code:
adb push hboot-no-red-text.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/hboot-no-red-text.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11
reboot

will this be persistent between rom flashes? ie. a 1 time thing? I think it should since it is its own partition right?

Yes, it should be persistent unless for some insane reason you decide to flash a ROM with an HBOOT image built into it.

it would take an even more insane dev to make such a zip. I don't think I ever saw one. except maybe one time when one of the phones I was using needed firmware update to be compatible with the new android version, and the new roms included it. though it'd be safer to have it as a separate zip.

For some reason, it's giving me an error
Code:
/sbin/sh: su: not found
while booted into twrp recovery. It has no issue finding it while booted though. Don't want to mess around flashing this hboot without being in recovery. Any ideas?
