sparx

This page contains test instructions and file for sparx (thanks for you help btw.)

Download the file gfree_root_psn.zip that is attached to this page and unzip it to the same directory where you put all the other files. Open a terminal (or command window) on your PC and change the current directory to where the files are on your PC and execute these commands:

$ adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/
$ adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/
$ adb push root_psn /data/local/tmp/
$ adb push su /sdcard/
$ adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/
$ adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/*
$ adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
$ adb shell

after the last command you should have a root shell in adb (this is indicated by a # prompt).

In the root shell (indicated by the #) that you got in the temporary root section execute the following commands:

# cd /data/local/tmp
# ./root_psn
# sync

You should not see error or warning messages this time because i changed the script a bit.

Wait a few seconds for the changes to "take".

Reboot your phone.

Open up a new adb shell and check if you can run su now.

If you can't then open up a second terminal on the PC and run:

$ adb logcat

In the first terminal run su again and in the second check for "interesting" messages.
