I'm not 100% sure, but it sounds like you haven't enabled root permissions using the secret menu from step 2 at the beginning of my guide. I would try restarting the phone and your PC (BTW, I'm running Win7 64bit too and have never seen the $).
The "su" or "sudo" means superuser, basically full admin rights to change any file on the system, including root.
Hi, I'm trying to root my Eve as well, but I'm encountering the exact same problem as the person above. I've read through the first steps a few times to see if I've forgotten anything, but as far as I can see I've done exactly what I've read.
Your comment left me a little confused though, since RaymondR stated that he did indeed enable root permissions before posting here.
I tapped the "enable root access" option in the hidden menu on the Eve
I am positive I've tapped the "Enable Root Permissions" as well. There was no prompt or confirmation of any sort short of the selection feedback though; is it supposed to be like that?
And if not, is there any other possible cause for this? Thanks.
