Root SuperOneClick 2.1 Root :D

Definitely worked this time, I installed these:

SSHDroid
ConnectBot
Jon Shell
Android Terminal Emulator
GScript Lite

Two problems with shell commands on the phone, I use ssh and the command line an awful lot so I'm used to rattling off things at a rate of knots, it's a bit frustrating for a hamfisted guy trying to do the same on a phone touch screen keyboard when his fingers are about the size of three keys lol

Secondly ... the text is so small my tired old eyes can't read it even with glasses on! Tomorrow I plan to play with ssh into the phone using sshdroid which will allow me to use the real keyboard connected to my pc for the command stuff ... such old-fashioned devices and methods are way more into my comfort zone

ConnectBot: ssh'd into one of my linux servers as a test just fine

Jon Shell & Android Terminal Emulator: Jon Shell's a bit slicker and at first glance appears to have more functionality

GScript Lite: Just in case I 'might' wanna try running linux scripts


I've never really had much interest in phones and what can be done with them, always saw them as purely a means for people to get hold of me, but I'm beginning to be impressed

I'm itching to investigate whether sshdroid has the capability for x11 forwarding, but it's almost 2 am here, and tomorrow's another day

Thanks for listening to me thinking aloud
 
you dont need to have an extra app to excecute commands from your pc
just if you've downloaded superoneclick if you check the folder
there would be 3files with name starting with ADB* two dll files and one exe file. simply copy those three files to your windows/system32 and than you can use cmd for all your shell commands
 
Thanks for that little tip there suhel28

Can see the files you're talking about, AdbWinApi.dll & AdbWinUsbApi.dll yeah?

The thing is though I hardly ever use windows, and even then 99% of my windows usage is done in vms so I need a way to do it from linux

I will experiment and see if I can get abd.exe to run under wine though and post back the result, but I'm about to watch the rugby so it'll have to be later or tomorrow ... depending on what time the pub starts screaming out my name

Erm ... but you're using and giving some very good advice on Android OS

Android is an adaptation of linux, the whole root user concept you're helping people with is a linux one, root in linux (and any other unix based OS 'family') is pretty much just what Microsoft call Administrator in windows

I suspect mate that you would find taking a look at linux quite interesting, maybe try a live version sometime

I know all that android-linux story mate. its just never have used linux on pc. my pc is quite old and have only 40gb hard disk and that is full too so don't have space of dual boot. I've tried ubuntu externally via a usb but my pc just wont boot with a usb plugged in lol

Sorry for the stupid question but where can I download SEUS from? I tried searching in the SE official site but I couldn't find it.

Hi there, SE seem to have made some changes to their website in the last few days and for some reason now no longer have the link to the Update Service, which is a bit of a nightmare.

I moderate on their forum so have just contacted my Manager over there who is going to raise it internally and get back to me.
 
Thank you for the information! I just have one more thing to ask. What is the latest update and what does it do? I am cautious because my phone is new and I don't want to do anything risky which can harm it any way.
 
Ok, last annoying question I promise. :D Does it make your phone battery die faster? That is my main concern.
P.S. Thank you for the link.
 
I haven't noticed this, been getting three days with very light use on my X8 over the last week or so since updating. My X10 is my main phone, I use the X8 mainly for answering queries/trying to reproduce problems and offer solutions on the Forums.
