Heh you've already done that. Su will grant you root permissions (if you're in "$" shell ). So installing "su" and "superuser.apk" is the way for permament root.

I apologize, nervousness+rushing does not make for clear instructions.

Basically these were the rough steps I took:
I did the entire script instructions and was fustrated I was still at $ after running rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin the first time.
I exited adb/cmd prompt
I rebooted my phone (Power down and then I turned it on again)
Started cmd
I logged into adb shell and had $ so I ran rageagainstthecage again.
Ran adb kill-server
Ran adb devices
Ran adb shell and had #

Here, this should give you an idea. I still have the cmd prompt open and it saved my session.



I dont think I have to redact my name from this.

Skrilax_CZ: Nandroid completed successfully and I have the firmware saved on my desktop. Do you want it? Isnt this the key to make a custom firmware/pre-rooted stock? It is decrypted properly, correct?

[maxxz]

Okay, so everythings fine, now i can flash even modded ROMs am i right ?

Skyfallkavu:
No need to upload it (there are the SBFs) and your firmware is stock. You'll be using the nandroid restore to install custom kernels and ROMs, tes.

There have to be created first. (or ported from Cliq)

Oh, I didn't know we already had the firmware decrypted from motorolas servers. Last I checked they couldn't extract the update.zip properly.

And thank you for everything you did, and everybody involved with this project. 743C team did a great job with this root. Thank you again.

SBF is not update.zip (it's a Motorola way how to flash firmware from the blue bootloader). It contains full firmware image.

[maxxz]

Yes yes, i mean in future, when will be some custom roms available.

thats great.

Thanks goes to all who find this solution !! Hurayy

Still no luck here. I've even tried doing a restore, and flashing the 13.37 SBF.

Skyfallkavu, thanks for the CMD prompt post. That's exactly what i was hoping for. I assume the rageagainstthecage bin file can be downloaded from a link somewhere in this thread?

Same Version as mine. I have tried going back to regular Home instead of LiveHome. Stopping Android Task Killer. Airplane mode. Wifi/GPS/Bluetooth all enabled. I have a few other things to maybe uninstall or kill the process on but i'm at a bit of a loss why its not working.

try typing su after you run rage the second time after rebooting.

Try running rage with the SD Card mounted in windows, I might of done that.

Try running it again after unmounting it ! :3
