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

Rooting a Motorola Flipside
Download drivers for the phone:
http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Support/Experiences/Global_Drivers/USB_Drivers_bit_4.7.1.zip
With the phone unplugged from the USB, install the drivers
grab the ADB SDK files
http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r08-windows.zip
Extract SDK files somewhere you will remember, and can easily type (for ease of use only)
Download z4root:
(you may need to sign up to download)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=446145&d=1290341328
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.
UPDATE: To get "Unknown Sources" enabled, go to this thread:

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...

Its in the market

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?

I was trying to do the radio s off with visionary and something went wrong.
I downloaded visionary+ onto my Telus HTC Desire HD no problem, I had rooted it earlier and beleived that to be done correctly. I was getting ready to flash my radio and was going through the steps to do so when my problems began.
Now, all that happens is VISIONary+ keeps on rebooting. I have tried pulling the battery, I have tried to change my settings (re: usb debugging) but nothing seems to help.....all it does is continously shut back off and try to reboot.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Update: This issue has been resolved. I am now trying to figure out if my phone is properly rooted...go to page 2 in thread please
What is your build number in settings>about>software information? Anything higher (and including) than 1.7 will cause Visionary to fail. Then you have to downgrade first.
OK, that is my first mistake, my Build # is 1.84.61.2.
I will attempt the downgrade and report back here
I am at the downgrade prompt. When I put in the command "adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp" I get a message saying "'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"
What did I do wrong?

download android sdk first
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
put your command to the folder .. for example if u extract to desktop with folder android, then go to command prompt, point to the folder first
e.g: "cd desktop" "cd android"
p/s: put the file inside the folder too
Thanks Hayday, this dosen't seem to help though.
I have the Android SDK in my C: drive and I have placed the "downgrade" folder inside of it. And I still get the same error of "adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file" when I type the "adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp"
Any other suggestions?
I believe it still may be a driver problem. I keep getting a message from HTC Sync that says "HTC sync port of ### is not responding. Please disconnect cable and reconnect after 10 seconds"
Can I use the program terminal emulator to do this directly on the phone?
does the folder have adb.exe in it ?
if you place the android sdk folder in c for example the folder name is "android" , you just go to cmd .. then type "cd c:/android/"
and then type "adb" ..
you must use the command inside c:/android .. not c:/android/Downgrade
to be safe, just copy everything in "Downgrade" folder and paste to android sdk folder too ..
btw, here is the full thread by jkoljo himself on how to downgrade.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003&highlight=downgrade
I have done exactly as you say, I have the "downgrade" folder inside of the "AndroidSDK" folder....and still get the exact same message of "'adb' is not recognized....."
I cannot post a question in that other thread because I have fewer than 10 posts. I will as soon as I get up to 10.
Download & install htc sync, this should include all the drivers you need.
I think you need net framework 3.xx installed as well.
Then in cmd, go to where you put the downgrade file (cd blah blah) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=483902&d=1294492245 - & then the command lines should work.

adb.exe is found in platform-tools folder in the android-sdk folder.
Add it to your path. Eg: PATH=c:\android-sdk\platform-tools;%PATH%
Thanks arjunr, after a little bit of tinkering with some files and folders I got it!
Thanks!
Now that I have the proper build #, I want to make sure my phone is properly rooted......or do I have to re-root it?
Is there any way to check and see if my phone is properly rooted?
I had rooted it before I did the build downgrade, does this make a difference?
My phone out of the box was a HTC Desire HD by Telus. The rooting that I followed was the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954997"which is the "[GUIDE] Telus Desire HD - Rooting and Flashing" found here on this website

hey guys,
i am new to xda and i need your help please.....i did the OTA update few days back and downloaded the visionary+ but the visionary gets stuck on the black screen and nothin happens and i also downloaded the gingerbreak v1 it gives a error of could not extract assets error, i read everything regarding this error but nothing help can you please help me on who can i do a S-off and enter the recovery mode and install the rom on the OTA 2.3.3 in desire HD......i dnt know how to use adb commands (i dnt have SDK).....please help me
I don't think there's a root option available for that firmware. You will likely have to make a gold card, temp root, downgrade, then perm root it. It's really not hard, and you will just need to copy/paste commands found in instructions. Just be sure to read the instructions through completely one or 2 times first, and then follow them well.
But you can boot up normally right? Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152233

i read the post, also downloaded the downgrade and ran "run thi for root" but a CMD prompt opened up and it closed automatically after few secs.....and i dnt know hat is adb and adb sheel and how to use it....i tried typing the adb code in the CMD prompt but gave me an error message saying something internal or external........i also tried using gingerbreak but giving me an error message of something extract assets.......please help ppl
It means that you've fail to execute step 3 in the guide right? Then use adb process. It refers to use direct command from android software developing kit. Download the android sdk tool from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html (recommended to use web installer, Java runtime required)
Usually it will create sdk folder in C:/ local disk. In the folder, shift+right click tools folder and click command prompt. Enter the command lines in the guide and continue.
You can't use gingerbreak on android build above 2.37. As I assume that you have applied OTA with at least 2.42. Is that correct?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
ya i have a 2.42 after the OTA........i think its the third step, i have the android sdk but i dnt know how to use it, i need the sense3.0 rom desperately....hope you can help me with the sdk thing

Instead of Goldcard Helper when making your goldcard...
- Open up a command prompt (Windows Key + R, type "CMD", press enter)
- connect your phone as "charge only" and have usb debugging enabled
- type: cd "c:\htc ace toolkit\resource" and hit enter (if you've already extracted my toolkit)
- Now type:
adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid
-Select and copy the cid, then paste into the appropriate field on the Goldcard Generator webpage.
You will now get a proper image, that once applied, will give you a proper working Goldcard to copy the PD98IMG.zip to and downgrade your device. and can now start with the fre3vo downgrade.

You need the su binary installed as well. But with that being said, why don't you just install the Superuser.apk?
[Edit:] It's late and I'm not paying attention for some reason. Custom ROMs come pre-rooted and you have Jelly Bean installed. Perhaps there's a problem with ES File Explorer?

At the Superuser website, there are three zip files. One is Superuser, one is the su binary, and the other should be both. Not that it matters at this point.

I too used the KFU to supposedly root my KF, but when I tried to install Titanium Backup, it gave me the same error message saying that my phone did not have root privileges... I wonder if there is something not installing correctly when using KFU...
"Root" consists of the su binary, which the system uses to give the user root permissions, and Superuser.apk, which keeps a database of what programs you allow to have those permissions. With "su" only, you will still have root permission, but only at the level of command line interface and your apps will not be allowed root permissions. Superuser.apk by itself is worthless. Custom ROMS come pre-rooted so the need to re-root is usually unnecessary unless something happens to one of the above mentioned programs. The only way to be sure if/which one is missing is in recovery via the command line because custom recovery will provide temporary root access.
Code:
adb shell ls /system/xbin
...look for su
Code:
adb shell ls /system/app
...look for Superuser.apk
Superuser can be installed from within the ROM using the .apk (at least in earlier versions it was possible), or in recovery using the command line or by flashing the signed .zip from the superuser website . The su binary can only be installed while in recovery.
Of course it all can be fixed by re-flashing your custom ROM.
It may also be necessary to rename the check-rooted executable, but only if you're running the stock Amazon software.
I think that pretty much covers it.

Ok now things are getting worse I tried to turn the wifi on and it didn't work, I tried to reboot and power off the tablet but it just won't work
{Edit} I want to know that by re-flashing the ROM is there a guarantee that those problems won't happen again.
One more thing is that I deleted the ROM from my kindle I can't transfer it from my laptop because the kindle hasn't been recognized after the jelly bean and I can't downloaded because wifi isn't working so what should I do

I re-flashed the Rom, wifi is working so I dl ES file explorer and checked Root explorer, but when superuser request popped, I clicked allow but it didn't work it gave me the same message, the new thing is that superuser app added es file explorer to its list but I still can't copy apps in the app/system file.
I know I bored you to death and I'm really thankful for ur help but I really need the root.

Ok, well try a different ROM. If the problem persists then we can try to think of something.
I flashed the Alien droid ROM it's working fine till now but I need to know how to install an arabic keyboard please

Ok, I have a dumb question, but from where do you run the DOS commands from? (ie. what directory?)..
c:\KFU?
Right-click on your KFU folder and select properties to find the folder's path. It may be different depending on wherever you've installed it.

Thanks. but not sure i understand.
Here is what I'm attempting to do.. using the root method described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1638452 under "Getting to fastboot mode" there are a series of command line examples that seem to start with adb.... (ex. adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/fbmode).
Under Rooting the stock software, the first step command line is "adb shell mount system"
my question is from where do I start (directory) so that when I enter these commands they work?
Or are you saying that I need to fun all these from the KFU directory? (or KFU/tools) or some other directory..
I appreciate the help and feedback..
:h my::
Wherever adb is...Right-click on that folder to find it's path so you can "cd" or change directories to it. Alternatively, you can Shift + Right-click on that folder and select something like "Open command window here".

So you've already rooted BPA1 and you're moving on to rooting CPD1?
I attained root on that partial firmware. Moved onto adb steps to be able to unlock it again as i was already unlocked before i just wanted lineage OS extremely bad. So i followed the guide on xda and then on the 2nd to last string it always says no such file or directory even if the unlock script is on the root of the sd card the internal storage and pc lol still to avail. I followed every step to the T can a pc firewall or something of that affect how smoothly this should be? Ive done it before but i never had this hard of time diff pc as well.

What's the full script that you're trying to execute and which guide are you using? To my knowledge, a firewall has no effect on rooting the Note 4.

Have you tried using kingoroot on the phone? I did it like that and had no issues. Also make sure your developer and security items are ticked.
I think I might know your issue. I had an issue using minimal adb and fastboot. The file that I moved into fastboot "unlock_n4" didn't match the adb command in the instructions. I renamed the file to match the command, and it worked! Up until I figured that out it would say "No Such file".
Hope that helped
Thats a great idea ill have to try that ty.
