Root Root app (no cables or other files required)

I took the existing one click root exploit, and re-wrote it as an app to remove the hassles of having to hook up cables and all that other nonsense.

I haven't tested it yet, but it's safe to run.
Please let me know if it works. You can go to this page on your mobile phone, download the apk file, when it finishes just click install. When you open it it's got a huge root button.

If it works, or it doesn't please leave me some feedback so I can fix it.

Please make sure you have the following settings set before you run it:

Settings\Applications\Unknown Sources = Checked
Settings\Applications\Development\USB Debugging = Checked



So far it's not working. I'm looking for some workarounds

I've found what it is, it's a little bug in my developer's designer app that makes the apps themselves. I'm working on a way around that little problem.
 
Can it also unroot?

That will be what i will attempt next, in theory it's possible but I'll know for sure once I actually run the script. It's a little different from within android then from a script ran from ADB.

Right now i'm just finding a workaround for the little file copy bug.
 
I've found a workaround for the file copy bug, however I can't seem to run the zergrush, I get cannot copy boomsh

Now this usually occurs when the file /data/local/tmp/boomsh exists and deleting works around this but it's not quite happening here. Seeing what I can do. I'll post the new version anyways just in case it's just my phone.
