I have a Mac and run the chmod +x run.sh in the terminal. It just pauses and goes to the command prompt again. Please help, my phone upgraded itself and unrooted. Running SPH-D700 2.2.1 Froyo.EC05 and need to root this beast!

mac users chmod +x run_mac.sh.you ran what was for Linux.

Did you enable usb debug mode on the phone? and did you let it install all 4 drivers when you plugged it in?

Also, clockwork 3.0 method is if you plan to go EXT4...is that what your trying to do?

Also, try different USB ports, and the type of cable matters.

yes, i enabled debug mode and yes it installed all 4 drivers. I have no idea what ext 4 is... i know nothing about android basically.

i tried the usb port dance, with an oem usb cable. i will try the cable for my gf's galaxy as well.

what am i doing wrong here.

EDIT: i plugged the phone to the laptop, went to device manager and only saw 3 drivers, i unplugged it and plugged it back in and only 2 appeared... so something is definitely going wrong. i will uninstall the drivers and reinstall them and see if that helps.

EDIT AGAIN LOL: i reinstalled the drivers, this time i let windows detect and install the drivers. im still only getting 3 drivers to show up. the sscdhub.sys is not showing up.

you can manually install the driver..its in the 16_shrewberry folder...

As for EXT4, its a filesystem....if you install it you will need to change your kernel...if you want to stay stock use the cwm 2.5.5 one...

What is the error that you see in the command prompt window?

Also, are you able to use mass storage?

There is a way to root on the phone directly..but I think you need to get this fixed (to make sure your usb port isn't damage or something)..

can you soft reset your phone, then remove all drivers on pc, restart...then install the proper drivers 32bit/64bit etc..then plug it in..click the small icon on the bottom right that looks like a pc with a green dot swirling...this will show you drivers being installed...tell me which drivers finish and which fail.
