[Q] z4root, Defy and android 2.2 - can not root due to a z4root unexpected quit

[altostratos]

Hi!

I'm trying to root my Defy (froyo - v2.2.2) using the z4root (v1.3.0) but I can not finish the operation due to an unexpected exit of the program.
The z4root quit after message "Acquiring root shell..." Nothing happen, just quit... No errors or any other message to understand something. In Application-Development, the USB debugging it's checked.

What can I to have a successful root access using the z4root software?

Thanks a lot in advance for any further replies.

No, for the moment I wish to do it with z4root. My computer is not working for the next two or three days so I can not use it.

But tell me, rooted with SuperOneClick can be unrooted without replacing the ROM?

yes, it can..

altostratos, I'm having the same problems as you I think

I did temporary root and z4root was doing it's thing when it closed all of a sudden (no FC). I opened it back up and now all it does is FC.

I'm hesitant to try superoneclick, as it seems more complicated and I have no desire to screw my phone up. I'm new to the android community and am not real clear on the whole rooting thing. I know it gives root access to the device (I've got lots of experience with linux), but that's about all I know.

Argh! I am going to have to start posting on these threads, because now for 4 days I've been trying to root this momo2 rk2818 arm9 chinese tablet, and I keep hitting the same links over and over - there is no new info, everything stops unresolved.

cramfs fs so I cannot perm root, I have no idea how to take an image of the current tablets rom (no phone, no camera, no dpad, no volume buttons, just a power/sleep button and a menu/esc button which do nothing during booting up - no bootloader, no recovery.. I can get to recovery mode using ADB but I cannot navigate the tablet menu with no functioning damn buttons.

Did I just buy a pure POS? I mean it works for all intent and purpose great. But I have no google market, a lot of websites try to go to market:// which it fails on, and I cannot uninstall the chinese bloat apps.

I just seem to find more and more brick walls in this, and ffs surely it cannot be this hard.

Ployer Momo2

about device:
Model Number: MOMO
Firmware version: [email protected]
Android version: 2.2.1
Kernel version: 2.6.25_(V2.2_3_718DC(E8_R8)[email protected])
Build number: froyo1.00 MASTER.eng.root.20110323.164551

7" resistive

I know google were iffy about providing market access to certain devices they deemed not sufficient, but ffs.... why even sell something so restricted that you cant even use the damn things on it.

I really hope someone has some advice, I am going absolutely mental.
