using adb you pushed the whole folder. You only had to push the gfree file that's it, not the whole gfree folder.
thanks, i missed that part in the first post.

Same here! Keep everything but still simlock!! ??Ok i keep trying this but it foesnt seem to work.
I do everything to a T amd when i go check the HBoot it looks like it works, S-OFF 0.85.2007 CID-11111111. But i power it back on and i go into terminal emulator and i put in su and it says denied?? What am i doing wrong?? I already tried permarooting thru Visionary too
I'm following these directions and was able to make it through the first set of instructions without any issues. My phone has not been rooted previously and was running 2.2.1. After following the first set of instructions, I was able to get S-Off and my hboot was 0.86.0000. Looks like everything worked as it was supposed to.
I am now on the optional directions to load the 0.85.0000 and I'm running into an issue with Step 6:
6. Now open terminal on your device and type "su" and enter to gain root privileges.
When I type in su and hit enter, I get access denied. Any ideas? Any help is greatly appreciated.

A lot of people are having issue with su being denied. If you are running visionary r14 on your phone Then this is what i recommend. Uninstall visionary and install visionary r11 and do root again. Hope this works for you.

Thanks for the quick responses everyone. I'll give that a try and post back my results. Once I uninstall r14 and install r11, do I need to redo the process again starting for the following point:
6. Run visionary to gain temp root.
7. Open terminal emulator on your device, type "su", and hit enter to gain root privileges.
8. Type "cd /data/local" and hit enter.
9. Now type "chmod 777 gfree" and hit enter to make the program executable.
10. Type "./gfree" and hit enter.
11. Wait for the program to finish and then reboot into HBoot to see if S=Off. Also, check your bootloader version. If it says s=off and has bootloader version 0.86.0000 it worked.
Also, the link above to r11 has three different versions of Visionary but not sure which one I need, none of them say r11. Any idea? Sorry, I'm trying not to ask too many questions.
Thanks all for the help, I got it to work. Simply temp rooted again with r14 with set system r/w after root checked. After that, I clicked on permroot or something like that. I was then given su access and was able to finish the rest of the steps without any issues. I now have S-Off and 0.85.2007! Thanks everyone!
KenpoAP, what do you mean stikk simlock? Have you tried an at&t sim card?
Boroake, try running visionary temp root with set system r/w after root again. Then try the permroot option. This just turns s off you need to run visionary again to make root permanent.
My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!
Find a friend with an at&t simcard and see if it works. Mine still says simlock and I checked with a coworkers at&t sim and it worked fine.
I don't think it showing up on the hboot screen is a problem.

Encountered some interesting side effects, and mind you, I'm not complaining. Did the gfree process, running hboot .85 from prior permaroot. For all intensive purposes, the phone appears to still be sim locked, where it displays simlock and cid tmob030. The interesting part is that if fastboot is not enabled, the phone will reboot into clockwork, and after having been rebooted out of clockwork, will come up in airplane mode.
This worked for me, however it seems now that if I turn my phone off and plug it in, it automatically boots into clockwork recovery. Do you know why?
Sorry for the bump, but can I get some feedback on this? I'm still not certain if it's "Better" to go with the engineering bootloader or the stock.
Needing a mirror to the engineering bootloader...since megaupload is down forever...
Hey Grankin, thanks again for all your hard work and quick replies...I have to unroot and send my phone back, but I'm unsure what to type in this area, please help...thanks
Now run the "dd if=/where/your/part7backup-numbers.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7" and it should show the output:
xxxx bytes in
xxxxbytes out
xxxxxxxxxx copied in blah blah blah
my part7backup is on my sd card named Originalpartbackup7, so would I type
"dd if=/sdcard/Originalpart7backup-numbers.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 ?
Thanks again
