Unzip the attached zip file somewhere in your M92 or SD card; you will find two directories, gserial and allow_root.
To login in your M92:- plug the usb cable;
- answer "No" to the USB Connection popup;
- run start_usb_serial.oar from the gserial directory;
- your computer should detect a new serial port device. Use you favourite terminal emulator to connect to it.
- login with user app, no password will be asked. (Be careful, even if you are not root, permission aren't really going to protect you.)
To logout press Control+D or type exit. If you want to login again, re-run the start_usb_serial.oar command.
When you are done, logout then execute stop_usb_serial.oar without disconnecting the USB cable. The usual popup will appear.
So now you want to login as root, don't you?
Go to the allow_root directory and run root_pw_clear.oar; now you can login as root, no password asked. To restore everything as it was, run root_pw_restore.oar (will only work if you don't change the root password by hand, but if you can do that, I assume you can restore everything by yourself.) Also, does anybody knows what the original root password is?
Be careful and have fun!
EDIT: The archive was updated because I put the wrong module in there, as you can read below. Sorry guys!

Hi FDD
Thanks much for your instruction.
I have come to the point of terminal emulator.
And I don't know what I am supposed to do in here
when you say "login with user app, no password will be asked."
This is what I have got:
************************************************** *
arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi-gcc (4.4.4_09.06.2010) 4.4.4
root filesystem built on Wed, 22 Jun 2011 12:37:52 +0800
Freescale Semiconductor, Inc.
onyx login: user app
Password:
Login incorrect
onyx login: user app
Password:
Login incorrect
onyx login: root
Password:
exit <--- I am trying to exit..
Login incorrect
**************************************************
I imagined that I should enter "user app" after "onyx login:"
and thought that it won't ask me the password but it did.
Do I need to do anything at this point?
Sorry to bother you but if you could tell me what is going on, it'd be so much appreciated. Thank you!
