If someone would create a one click, or at least more simple root I would gladly donate, I had a bad experience with a previous phone using commands and even tho I flash many roms on many phones very frequently I would still love this. And be thankful, and would also buy someones beer/liquor/dinner/wtf ever for the night. Thanks

I would be down for a donation for one click root as well...my WinPC is all messed up and I don't know terminal on mac well enough to run sdk.
yes my wife let her parent use our win7 laptop and we have our macbook and i dont know much about it bc we have only had it for a week or two. will my pc back in about 2 weeks but obviously want root much sooner lol. i would donate 25 if someone will do this
Bringing this back up again. I still don't have my PC so I'm a little scared to try with Mac. Somebody does this ill give them $25 the second I'm rooted.

id like to see this as well
so would it be safe to say that you would donate for this as well? i got root earlier finally on my man but would still donate as i really want our community to grow. this has a chance to be one of the most well developed phones on verizon bc it doesnt have a locked BL and the ease of rooting as well as the potential to bc overclocked to 1.6 and with the chipset in thes beast we have endless possibilties. even if someone does get a leg up on this processor it will be a while before they get a leg up on the GPU. the iphone is legendary for its gaming capabilty and this phone is equal to in the six-axis sensor and greater than in the powerVSR540 so lets get some real development going, this one click root will make it easy for noobs and get that many more people in here.
I was scared to do it with commands.. And I've rommed abunch of winmo phones... Just follow the commands and ask questions..the community here is great people WILL help you

JUST FOLLOW THESE AND YOU WILL BE ROOTED....IF FOR ANY REASON IT LAGS OR FREEZES JUST UNPLUG YOUR PHONE....AND CLOSE WINDOWS COMMAND PROMPT AND REDO THE STEPS SOMETIMES IT TAKES 2-3 TRIES TO FINALLY WORK
adb push su /sdcard/su
adb push rage.bin /data/local/tmp/rage.bin
adb push busybox /sdcard/busybox
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp

lol thanks guys i got it last night one of the guys from the IRC channel made a video on a mac. i've done it plenty of times on my pc. thanks guys. this is why i always come here.
I myself do not need a one click root app, BUT I do believe that it would advance the community, so I would donate $25.
1 CLICK ROOT
http://forum.androidcentral.com/fascinate-roms-hacks/33899-how-root.html
And your welcome
That isnt one click root at all. 1 click root used to be in the market and you dont need a computer for 1 click root
acually dirk the link in android forums is bad. it just says invalid and i even registered to see if i can get the download for future use.
Guys, you're probably not going to see a 1-click root for a while. Dirrk's instructions are extremely simple, and there have been a number of videos made walking through the steps.
Once we've gotten where we want to be ROM wise, someone might circle back and put a easy-button app for you out there. For now, if you want to root the device, roll your sleeves up and follow Dirrk's guide. If you already have the software installed, it takes all of 5 minutes.
Again it really is simple and we will all help you..just ask questions if your scared..our don't understand something..a week ago I was clueless.. And everyone on these forums helped me so much..and ill happily walk anyone through it

well this may not be a one click root app but it is idiot proof root. Just install the driver then run the zip. Requires no typing in of commands and takes 2 minutes. i think you might have to push two buttons total.

Hello,
I have found this bug on the TF101 and I do have TF201 as well but its not a production model so i cant really test this 100%
If someone can test my root method. below i will paste.
This is a new root method.
This is a linux / OSX version only for now.
When you untar the file. Please make sure to edit the runme.sh it has a path for adb that you need to fix. Other then that it will work.
You just chmod 755 runme.sh and run it

Windows version of my exploit can be found at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1515470
Reserved for later
im pretty positive it won't work, seems they made a lil mistake on the rights on your system folder after the backup utility been used bro <- it does work
but still, can't wait for someone to actual test it, would be funny if it however would work.
after all nice catch so far

Thank you.
Want to know if it works on the TF201.
You need to run the backup util on an app installed (This util is found in the app draw)
then once the script runs. it will ask you to do the same backup again and it should reboot and you have root.
it works >.<

that won't work in this case, since you take the advantage of their app...
you can't make an app control another app without root rights >.<
and if people can't obtain root on the ways that has been given, do they actually need root than?

Lol good point. I need root for overclocking, system tuner settings. Ad away etc... I get what you saying though. Just checking to see if anyone coming up with an apk. Install. Someone did before with nachoroot but got shut down since he didn't asknflr permission tl use their exploit. No biggie. I'm sure someone will come up with one again soon enough? Rooting is nothing new to me..just lost root on last update n computer down. Not pressed. Can't hurt to ask though.

THANKS!
Thank you for that. Added the Torpedo root method! =]
Thanks for putting all that info into one spot! Definitely helps out that much more as it is somewhat easier to refer to rather than bouncing from one post to another here in the forums! I would imagine it'll help out many people (including me!).
I'm still fairly new to some things and some times the added explanation of certain topics and/or issues is what's needed to get the job done!
Also, as far as the *photon-torpedo* root method goes... I used that method without an issue on Android 2.3.4. After updating to Android 2.3.5 the other day, I used that same method again without issue and it worked perfectly! Unfortunately (at least from what I've read), being that I updated to 2.3.5, I won't be able to unlock the bootloader as if right now. Not really something I'm too concerned about, being that I hadn't prior to the update anyway.

I hate to be that guy but this is certainly relevant to the discussion at hand. I used the Photon Torpedo method originally when it first came out. Since then I have kept it stock and performed the OTA updates as they come. After each update I just run the last two commands:
/data/tmp/photon-torpedo.sh
/data/tmp/install-su.sh
Always worked in the past. I just got updated to the new "2.3.5" and I can't seem to get root back. The photon-torpedo script has multiple errors "libpcprofile.so cannot be loaded as audit interface" and "permission denied". Consequently the install-su script doesn't succeed. Can't mount /system as RW and everything is permission denied.
Worst part is that the SU binary still exists in /system/bin/su but I can't use it. I get permission denied on everything I try.
Am I borked? Is there something I have forgotten?
Jleeblanch, are you using the new update from Motorola from the soak test?
Grep,
To answer your question, yes. The new update unroots your device so you will have to re-root using the photon-torpedo method again.
I was rooted prior to the update with that method and after the update I was un-rooted! Trying to re-root using Terminal Emulator on device wouldn't work. Got "permissions denied" when running the tar command. But, using adb on the computer worked without a problem!
So basically, just redo the torpedo root method from step 1 and you'll successfully get root back guaranteed!!
Hope that helps!
Also, I had the SU binary in place as you did along with other root specific apps. Those apps are pretty much worthless until you gain root again.
It has been confirmed in the "soak" that 2.3.5 update will completely un-root your device...

try it now, post 6. Are you on 2.3.4 or 2.3.5? If you're on 2.3.4 then just use the root/unlock/relock pack (the link is at the top of post 6.
OK - I see it now and I've downloaded it - thank you very much. I am on 2.3.5 from the soak test.
Are these still the correct/only instructions? If so I may still be in trouble...my "favorite method....into /data/tmp"? I don't know any method, much less have a favorite.
Instructions:
Use your favorite method to get photon-torpedo.tar into /data/tmp
Install Superuser from the Market
Install Android Terminal Emulator from the Market
Run Android Terminal Emulator
Run cd /data/tmp
Run /bin/tar xf /data/tmp/photon-torpedo.tar
Run /data/tmp/photon-torpedo.sh
Run /data/tmp/install-su.sh
I'm actually on my way to bed. I will write a more detailed walkthrough tomorrow and post it in the Photon Compendium. Eventually I plan to script the entire process but am working on unified webtop stuff right now.

Me to, had to used one click Root (20 times)
Navigate to the Android Market and install the “Superuser” application from ChainsDD
Download and extract 22MB Root-Unlock-Relock.zip from the Imperium website
Go to the "rsd drivers" folder located in the Root-Unlock-Relock folder and install the drivers for your system (32bit or 64bit windows)
Download photon-torpedo.tar
Place photon-torpedo.tar in the "AIO Root" folder located in the Root-Unlock-Relock folder
On your phone, in menu/settings/applications/development make sure usb debugging is checked
Connect your phone to your computer and select "charging" mode from the connections options in notifcations
From the "AIO Root" folder, double click the "Command Prompt" shortcut
Type the following commands:
adb push photon-torpedo.tar /data/tmp
adb shell
cd /data/tmp
/bin/tar xf /data/tmp/photon-torpedo.tar
/data/tmp/photon-torpedo.sh
/data/tmp/install-su.sh
Ignore the errors when running torpedo and let the process complete.
Once I get some free time I'll write a single script covering everything from rooting to SBFing back to stock. My goal is to get any given process down to ten keystrokes or less.
Hmph. Well....I think it worked. Root Checker says "congrats" - but wasn't it supposed to wipe all my stuff from the phone or something?
no root doesn't wipe data. (neither does unlock if done right)

Hello guys, i have a question here, i bought this tablet from Focalprice:
http://www.focalprice.com/CE0427B/Y...PX820_Dualcore_12GHz_Tablet_PC_with_WiFi.html
This tablet have the same specs of the Ippo Y88, BUT Y88 have 1.5ghz and mine have 1.2ghz, they use the SAME dualcore A5 processor, IMAPX820.
Well, i search on google, and use the tool here on XDA to find some information, but its impossible to find anything about this processor, and those tablets... I know they are simple tablets, but someone know if i can ROOT this thing using CWM and put some light ROM, or Cymod?
Thnaks for help, this forum is the best, and i love the Galaxy S3 forum!

How is your answer supposed to help anybody? People buy cheap tablets for a lot of reasons, I bought this to use it for a home automation system and it's perfectly fit for this purpose.
I'm also interested in rooting it, so any information ( ROMs , ideas on how to root it or how to make a ROM dump without root, etc) would be much appreciated.

Maybe nobody will develop a rooting method for this kind of tablets, but there could be an existing method that works ¿isnt it? hope so.

If you or somebody else can provide/find the original ROM I might be able to root it. I'm not an expert but I've managed to root an "unrootable" android tv box once. I've asked the guys at focalprice for the ROM but they didn't answer my email and I don't have too much hope given their awful customer service.
Oh thanks! Ill try to find it with someone on ebay, or google, if i find it i tell you! Thanks! )

Nice! Thanks!
Still no answer from focalprice on my side and I think the best chance to find the ROM is via ebay sellers. I've tried a few methods of rooting the tablet without any luck and I came to the conclusion (with my limited knowledge) that the problem is related to the file system the ROM is packed, which doesn't allow changing file permissions. I can't go further without risking bricking my tablet, but if we find the original ROM I may be able to unpack /repack it, changing the permissions in the process. It may be a long shot but it's worth a try.
Thanks everybody for your efforts!
Fast response from focalprice: a word file with how to use this tablet: on, off, mute, how listen to the music...wow!
IF you find the rom ok, but you can't use it because the recovery is not present on this tablet. If you can do somethins, please, post it.
Thanks :good:

Hello friends!
I'm completly frustated. Google is burned with my researches. I have found this video and I think that is our tablet, but this combination don't work for me. Any idea?
Thank you for the info. I've tried the method in the video and it doesn't work on my tablet either, so probably we have a different model. Even if there is no recovery mode as the guys from focalprice say, I am sure that the ROM can be updated/reinstalled somehow, via usb maybe?
I'll keep trying to make a ROM dump from my tablet and I'll post here if I succeed.

Hello guys, i have a question here, i bought this tablet from Focalprice:
http://www.focalprice.com/CE0427B/Y...PX820_Dualcore_12GHz_Tablet_PC_with_WiFi.html
This tablet have the same specs of the Ippo Y88, BUT Y88 have 1.5ghz and mine have 1.2ghz, they use the SAME dualcore A5 processor, IMAPX820.
Well, i search on google, and use the tool here on XDA to find some information, but its impossible to find anything about this processor, and those tablets... I know they are simple tablets, but someone know if i can ROOT this thing using CWM and put some light ROM, or Cymod?
Thnaks for help, this forum is the best, and i love the Galaxy S3 forum!

Okay, I found a way to root it, but its on different device (Infotmic GF20). Firstly you have to enter recovery mode with adb (adb reboot recovery), then disconnect and reconnect usb cable, enter adb shell. If you have # as prompt, you can continue - it will work on your device too - if not, you have to obtain firmware from seller to root it. If you have #, type
Code:
ubiattach -m 1
busybox mount -tubifs /dev/ubi0_0 /system
Then exit adb shell, get su binaries and supersu app, and pull them to the device:
Code:
adb push su /system/xbin/
adb shell chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
adb shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
adb shell ln /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
adb shell chown 0.0 /system/bin/su
adb shell chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
adb shell push supersu.apk /system/app/
Reboot device and it should work
OMG! Incredible!
My problem is the seller: they don't have the firmware, but I will try to understand all the process and I will try.
Thanks, thanks and thanks

Don't works for me. I can see the recovery (thanks), but when I unplug and plug the device, windows (xp) don't recognize the tablet. I use the Universal ADB drivers https://github.com/koush/UniversalAdbDriver, but I think that are the correct drivers. Any idea? Thanks! :good:
Here we have the solition, but I don't understand the recovery mode driver installation...
So I bricked my Kinde Fire HDX by changing the build.prop and not fixing permissions. I have adb access but no root (I don't know why :S). Would a factory reset work? If not, how can I get to fix the build.prop or replace it with the old one? thank very much, I've been a couple hours looking for solution but I couldn't find any.
No, a factory reset would only break it further. It would remove your adb access and not fix anything. What makes you think you lost root? Have you tried "adb shell" then "su"?

I used the HDX ToolKit v0.92 to check the root access, and it said "Please grant root on your device"
I've also tried "adb shell", and then "su", but it just returns "su" again. I am new with adb commands so I don't really know what it should show.
Thank you very much for your help
May I ask what version you were on before you bricked?

Nope, I couldn't find any way to get root acces again. But nevermind, my new kindle fire will be here in two days. I am surprised how well amazon costumer service works. Even though I bought my kindle in the US and now I am in Spain (not going back), they called me from the US for free, and they are paying all the shipping costs and sending it by priority shipping.
I am still interested if anyone knows how to fix it, just for fun
well

It sounds like to me that you still root access you just were not mounted RW in other words it would not boot up completely so you could hit allow to the adb Shell. So you will have to mount system rw manually Try last 3 pages of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588608. He can fix you most likely if you can comprehend and follow directions.. or if ur understanding adb is fair you'll be able to probably extract your repair from the thread as is.

I've tried what it is said in the other thread. However, the problem there is that the guy cannot get his device to be recognized.
I've tried this:
adb root
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system *****- if this fails, try: mount -o remount /system
chmod 644 /system/build.prop
chown root.root /system/build.prop
reboot
But adb root gives me this error:
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
On the other hand if I skip the "adb root" step I cannot go further than "su" since I don't get the "[email protected]:/ #" line.

Romaster_3.4.3.7593_Setup use as describe back in the roll back thread and the rooting thread 4 the new yes I kno wat is in chinese but this is the 1 that you must use sent you cannot install the apk install software plugin your tablet look at the upper right corner you will see an gear icon tap that then second row down second icon over "root"

FIXED!!!!!
The chinese software worked! Thank you very much! As I first rooted with towelroot I wasn't aware that it was possible to root without booting into android! I think I won't edit the build.prop again lol.

Ok now use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2532818 and uninstall romanager from pc...and reboot... And BTW modifying your build prop is alot easier useing build prop editing app. It takes care of permissions anyway as long as you entrys are correct..

Good call on RomMaster. I have no idea what it is doing since I haven't had any time to look at it, but I'd figured it was an app like TR. At any rate, nicely done. :good:

I'm not sure either that's why when I used it I was on a blacklisted unit and I kept the PC and the tablet and airplane mode at all times. Until I was certain I got all the files off of both before I let them go to Wi-Fi Chinese files that is.. But one thing I was very curious about is if you open that tool up the Chinese tool that is an you go to the same page you would hit the anchor to root to your device just below that it says fastboot I'm wondering if they have a fastboot working for also too bad nobody here know Chinese..
