Easy Root for Bionic Stock 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean)

Everything seems great until I start to try to push the exploit, then it hangs after saying daemon started successfully. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Make sure you have the latest moto drivers installed on your computer and be sure to reboot it if you have just installed

I also have sort of the same kind of problems:
1) when I connect the XT910 to my PC (Win7) or to my MAC (MacBook Air) the XT190 does not show up although I hear a notification sound (I turned on/off Debug USB, Mass Storage, MTP...) but no results

2) When I connect the device and I run RSD Lite the XT910 gets recognized :-/

3) When I launch VM I cannot get any host IP address (neither on Win nor on Mac, although my router is set on DHCP)

I have tried several times what's written in the forum but couldn't sort this out! :blink:

Any advice?

i dont know a lot about how this program works (although i have used it) so im not sure i can help you.

for #3, what your saying is, in the script, it gets to the screen where it displays the host etc for you to put in the phone and those fields are blank?

try going to settings/apps/all/google playstore and uninstall updates, clear cache, delete data , then reboot and see if its fixed.
 
#3:
Yes, exactly!

Host IP Address is blank! (I tried several times...)

All other fields are correct (Domain, Shared folder, User, Password show up and are as expected).

it is my understanding that he cant do that, because vm wont give him the host ip to enter in the setup.
If VM isn't picking it up, couldn't you just hit cntrl and type it in? (check your wifi properties on your pc and manualy enter the ip address your pc is on)? Whatever ip address his pc is on should be reflected in VM when he starts it...I don't see how he doesn't have any ip address displayed in VM...should just have to go to files on his bionic and setup the smb to get the "easy root" not "one click" started...

im far from an expert at this, so i read through some of the post on xda, then suggested he read through it when i saw some info that could be helpful.
im sure there are ways around this problem as you suggest. i just dont know how to do it without looking it up, that's why i didn't make any direct suggestions.

the process worked fine for me, im just trying to help out where i can.

Hey no problems, it just sounded like the issue wasn't with VM but instead what he/she is seeing on VM, if he's using wifi then he should be getting on ip to his pc and another to his phone, then using files to get smb and begin to run the exploit....but for an ip not to show up in the VM? If that's the case you should be able to just type it in and still be able to get the bionic and pc linked, if the connection is there which is easily testable then he is just feeling stuck at VM not detecting the ip number which seems to be easy to fix manually...
 
In the end I decided to use the linux method as with VM I had the same Host IP address missing both on my Mac and on my Win and I could not sort that out.

i would be surprised if you got the Linux method to work at all. i literally spent 6-8 hours trying to get it working, read dozens of forums/post, and tried dozens more suggestions.
the problem is, the very first file you need, lib 32 (or whatever it is), has since been merged and obsoleted (on the couple Linux os i tried, yes i tried more than one). if you cant load that, it cant work from my experience.
i was kinda mad at all the time i spent on a non working solution after i found the vm method, and had it rooted in 20 minutes.
