Root cmd freezing

[Dowsire]

Hey guys im new here and was drawn by the rooting for this specific phone. Now I followed the walkthrew to the t and when i enter the su command it changes to # but then freezes can some1 help me?

edit: It install superuser, superuser asks for promission, and I accept. "Yes I rebooted after superuser install." Now when I go back to cmd prompt I enter su and it changes to # then it freezes. I wait a couple minutes and nothing. just cant finish the last commands;
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-2.2.1-joneidy.img

when you type the su look at your home screen on your phone to accept superuser then you will be able to paste the commands.

did that! Ive tried to copy and paste, also typing and nothing. Its like the cmd prompt just freezes. It changes to the # symbols and I cant type or paste the final commands. Whats wrong?

adb shell enter then su then make sure ur phones screen is not sleep so you can see the accept superuser accept then you should be able to finish


mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system

cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image

chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image

mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-2.2.1-joneidy.img



then reboot phone service should return

if you get the # after the su and you dont accept the superuser close the cmd and reopen and start over from

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

adb shell

su then when you see # check your phone right away to accept.

Im a dumb ass. I was entering the whole "adb shell su" string, instead of "adb shell" then "su". Thanks everyone for your help!
