to use su, u need to get root rights

i have used the root(I followed these steps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825228 and everything went just fine) after that, I went back to try to use again super user premission(su command) and then again was not work,why?

What are you trying to do, gain super user permissions on 2.1?

I have a root and what now?? how to delete pre- installed apps?? can some body tell me? step by step or give a link to topic where this issues was solved??

Go to the market download titanium backup, make a backup of everything, then just tap the app you want to remove and hit uninstall, it really is that simple, if you need busybox the app will even get it for you!!
But do make a backup first because if you remove an app that is needed you can easily restore it.

rooting

have you seen that 1 click root an z4root don't really make a full root of our x10s???
I was trying to put some ringtones on the notification folder (inside system/media/audio) but I was unable to do it :S it said I lack of the permissions :S
Still need to crack the shell. Use root explorer or something.

hmmm well i used it and it says that message :/
maybe our root method is working 50%
Did you install Busybox from the Android Market after rooting with z4root? I believe this is what is used to grant superuser capabilities. Root Explorer should allow you to push those files after this.
busybox wouldn't install on mine after i'd "rooted" using z4root.. and now the superoneclick won't work for me either (I've just installed JIT)...
installed busybox and didn't work at all

Just use ringdroid if you like to add ringtone or notification sound. No need root. And btw z4root works good for me

I just rooted mine today. apparently there are a few versions of busybox that don't work as they should. I installed titanium after root. Load titanium, it will tell you it can't get superuser rights but will start anyway. Click the "Problems" button at the bottom of the screen and it will download a reliable version of busybox.
I hope this helps.

Didn't work for me either. When trying to download BusyBox through Titanium, I get an "install failed". Went to market and downloaded busybox from there but gives me a "your phone is rooted. Could not locate busybox".
I have an X10a through AT&T R2CA016. Do I need to debrand it before rooting?

You don't need to debrand before rooting. When you download/install Busybox from the Market, open it and it will give you the option of which version of Busybox you want to install/use, select the one you want and run it. Then you can use Titanium after that.
z4root worked fine on my x10. used superoneclick to apply shell root after that but busybox installed fine before that.
Will z4root work on my 2.1-update1 X10?
I have the Nordic Unbranded version with build No. 20A0504 or something...
I only need root to access the Japanese market, nothing else (don't care about otifications etc).
Will it work then? If I use z4root?
Oh, and it wont mess up my SD card, contacts or battery or anything like that?

old post i know....but it works fine for me....had you mounted in R/W mode? it should say R/O at the top if you have. I just copied an mp3 file straight into the internal memory (/system/media/audio/ringtones)
That what I do!
I use a "Flash tool release"
root by installing the z4root
then I i install busybox
and to get full access I install rootexplorer and reamount system to the rw the in rootexplorer
then use the "X10modtool" XDA Tool So Always when i try to change staff in my x10 I just open rootexplorer and re amount
Then use Adb shell and staff
(Work 100% for me)
The reamunting it just does not work when use seus or PPC - the ADB is close in the production version of the SE system
By the way How to turn on the ADB in the SE ?? (permittions)
In summary when you install XDA apps just add rootexplorer and reamount to rw

How 2 upgrade HTC tattoo from 1.6 to 2.1

I have HTC Tattoo, currently it has Android 1.6. How can i update to Android 2.1.
Please provide me some to update it.
There is no official update for Tattoo so you need to root and flash a custom rom. Search the forum and you will find some guides on how to do it.
A good place to start is:
[GUIDE] All Tattoo questions and answers see here (from A to Z)!
[READ FIRST] Roll-up Thread about Rooting and Flashing
I would like to upgrade from stock rom to a custom one.
Is it possible to keep existing applications and application data? How?
1.6 to 2.x any Backup not work for me SMS MMS and all application it's gone.

I tried titanium backup. After rooting the phone it says:
"BusyBox works but the "su" command does not elevate to root:"whoami" reports "whoami: unknowen uid 10067" instead of root/uid 0. I think your "SuperWhitelist" system app does not work. Please check with rom provider.
I have made backup with titanium but I don't think it is good because the file size is below 1kbyte.

i already tried reinstalling busybox from the market and it claims it doesnt have root access even though it does. i made sure in super user
you could find the busybox files and move them manually to the correct location

i dont think that that would work either because system/bin is a read only folder. so even if i knew how to manually install busybox the way your talking about i don't think that it would let me.
never mind i flashed to stock 2.3.2 using WotanServer. Thanks for the help

yes, but like i said in my first post, i tried uninstalling busybox which deleted the sh file in my system/bin folder which must have taken root access away.
But again, it's all good now cus like i said i managed to flash back to stock 2.3.2 using WotanServer and updated to 2.3.3, rooted, restored all my apps, and now my phone is back to normal.

Download root checker from play store. If it shows your phone to be rooted, then updating will brick your device. If it shows "no root access" then you can update to Lollipop.
And, a word of advice, dont update to Lollipop. Kitkat works much much better than Lollipop on A6000+.
Also, you can try custom ROMs if you are familiar with flashing ROMs and stuff..
:silly:

No app without root access can install busybox because without root access they dont have permission to write in /system directory. So, the "install busybox without root" app has to store busybox files in /data/ directory, and must be guiding other apps to that folder when some apps ask for busybox.
And without root permissions you cant modify the contents of /data/.
So, you need to install that "install busybox blah blah" again and then try installing busybox again. Then, clear data of the "install busybox ..." app and I think busybox would get removed, hopefully.
And yah, if this doesn't work you can factory reset your phone. That would surely do the job.

Yeah factory resets wipes the /data/ directory. All of your installed apps will be removed too, so you should better make backup first.

dirty santa root but no root please help

so i been dealing with this root methoed for awhile and i finaily got twrp on my phone and all including SU
but i install ccleaner and it shows my phone s not rooted so what can i do to fix this
i have SU 2.82 i did the advanced wipe on cache and dlvik i did a format data still no root is showen
you have to install the su zip AFTER doing everything else. If you did format data you deleted your root if it was on there

ccleaner like many old apps have not been updated to work properly with system-less root. They are still looking for the su binary under system/bin or system/xbin. You'll need to contact the app developer about that. Alternatively, you can go into SuperSU and have it install the binary for old-school root but I don't recommend it.
You can use a ton of other apps to get rid of the Verizon bloat (titanium backup being one of them).
