Another One Click Root Method Available [3/26]

[chrisp9446]

Yeah, you still have to do these to enable the superuser access, even for the application:
> adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
> adb shell /data/local/busybox cp /data/local/su /system/xbin/su
> adb shell chown 0:0 /system/xbin/su
> adb shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su

You should be able to install su from the market. I think that's what I did...

You will probably have to do the other commands associated with "su" though.

Installing su was the only step that said there was a problem with. I suppose I'll just try it. Will I still have to update su through recovery mode? I have no idea how to do that. Lol

I guess su is already up to date this time.. awesome.

Had a problem with the steps involving "su" or with the "superuser.apk" installation?

If it's with the superuser.apk part, then you'll be OK to just install it from the market.

Sorry, should have worded that properly.

The "superuser.apk" step was the one that failed to install. because "superuser.apk was not found"

Edit: None of the others ones showed any error or problems after hitting Enter. Although I'm pretty sure that I don't have root access right now..

Ah yeah...that makes sense because superuser.apk wasn't part of the download for the "one click root."

You should be good to go to download Superuser from the market.

I take it back. I am officially rooted. Titanium Backup has SU Permissions, and that means it was a success, correct?

Yes, success!

Yes, success!

Dude, I cannot thank you enough for spending the last, what, 20 hours getting me through this!

CyberWarrior, thanks for your help too. Although I ended up using a different method all together, you got me within an inch of where I needed to be, haha!

No problem, glad to help! I also learned a lot about how "one click root" doesn't exactly mean "one click" yet...
