If they are working on it or updating it, the app will dissapear from the store for a short time. At the moment I cant even connect to the market.

Wait a few hours and check back

Thank you for the tip. It doesn't appear to be a root shell, BUT the process runs as root, which should be just as good as soon as I drop my own sshd in there... just have to compile for the right processor hehe...

What did you type in exactly to get telnetd to run? Any flags you passed?

I'm trying /system/bin/telnetd from pterminal, but it never runs.

I had to run it twice before it ran, then once it started it's like a watchdog process killed it after a few minutes.

do...

# cd system
# cd bin
# telnetd
# ps

Then scroll to the bottom to see if it's running. THEN connect really quick, because it seems to die off fast .

It seems that unless you first cd to system/bin running telnetd doesn't work. It also seems t-mobile does inbound filtering so I cannot root my phone remotely... :-/

What if... you recompiled a VPN client for ARM and ran it on the phone, having it connected to your home network?

It would be a battery drainer for sure... Perhaps activate it with an SMS message? Or maybe a flag it checks for on a static html page every 10 minutes?

W00t. I figured everyone gave up on trying to root this thing. Now it seems the excitement has just begun.

That's reeeealy great!
Does anybody know how one can copy the files there? Regular 'cp' does not work there.
