So there is an instruction set for manually restoring root if you did Rootkeeper here : xda-developers - View Single Post - [Q] Lost Root After Jelly Bean OTA Update
I'm trying to translate that into a much more simplified set of instructions specifically for those who have HoB. However, my skills are quite limited. I've been able to simplify them down to the following, but I am stuck at stage 6 from the original guide, and I am wondering if there might be someone to help complete this.
Here's what I've got (Windows):
1) Download .zip from https://www.dropbox.com/sh/jcpilpgoeta516e/tCB-Ep-3YQ
2) Copy contents directly into the ...SamuriHL_HouseOfBionic\utils folder
3) Right-shift and click on the "utils" folder to bring up submenu - pick the "open a command window here" option to get a CMD
(These instructions will be inside the CMD, and represent how your lines should look before entering)
4) ...SamuriHL_HouseOfBionic\utils>adb shell
5) shell@cdma_targa:/ $ cd /system/usr/we-need-root/
6) shell@cdma_targa:/system/usr/we-need-root $ ./su-backup
7) root@cdma_targa:/system/usr/we-need-root # id (to double check you have root - You get a response that starts with " uid=0(root) gid=0(root)" )
8) root@cdma_targa:/system/usr/we-need-root # mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
That's as far as I got. Anyone want to help complete it? I'm too chicken from here on out.
