Sorry, what's the app?
Have you enabled "usb debugging" on tablet before starting SuperOneClick on your PC?
usually this is "root" of the problem

Hi, i know my problem now. I can't get Folio 100 recognised by Windows 7.
Always is recognised as "Toshiba Mass Storage" or "H:\".
I tried already on two differents computers (two with Windows 7), one Windows is clean install i can't install ADB driver.
I downloaded Android SDK r11 from here
I installed Java Development Kit since Android SDK won't run without it.
I run Android Manager, install only platform-tools for adb
I install Google USB and add lines for Nvidia Tegra 2
I do cmd echo
Restart
I put Toshiba Folio in Debug Mode, plug-in...
Windows install Mass Storage driver only...
Turn off Debug Mode and turn on... Device goes to Mass Storage Mode...
Windows won't do anything with modified usb driver inf
Windows eventually installs a device as "H:\"
Nothing more.
Please help, thanks in advance.
Hi again.
Also, i can install ADB, Android SDK and SuperOneClick on Mac... But i don't know if i can tweak usb driver for doing root here.
SOLVED WITH FASTBOOT
Thanks to all!!!

Here is my personal experience.
I found that Windows not able to load the USB device driver for the VB71 tablet.
Since Viewsonic does not provide the driver in their support web site, you can download the SuperOneClick software (in fact any software come with the Android USB driver) from cnet.com
Then, plung the tablet to your PC (do not Enable the USB Connection) when prompt by your tablet - Windows XP will prompt that new hardware detected and prompt to install new driver for the “VSM752HC” device (the tablet USB device name). I direct the prompt to use the folder of the SuperOneClick software driver folder - example
“C:\Android software\SuperOneClick\SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse\Drivers”
to look for driver installation by windows and windows able to install the driver from there.
Note: Only use the driver of SuperOneClick – this software can only root old versions of Android … not Android 4.x
And you can see that the device now become “Android Phone” in the windows “Device Manager”.
After you have windows installed the USB driver for your Android device. Go and download “Android_Root_1.0” (which support Android 4.x) from sourceforge.net. Unzip it to a folder.
Connect your tablet to the PC with Android USB Debugging enabled and run the downloaded script “ICS_Root_Unlocker.bat” under the “Android_Root_1.0” folder.
It will stop and then start "ADB server" (Android Debugging server) and then prompt you to “hit ENTER key to continue” – wait for the reboot complete and "USB Debugging connection is back ON" before you hit the ENTER key !! This applies to first two reboots.
On the third time, you will not see the machine come back on (seems dead) but wait for a few minutes and just “hit ENTER key to continue” which will complete the final change and perform last reboot.
Just “hit ENTER key to continue” to quit the script.
Note: In the first few trials without success – I was not sure anything is going on and assumes the script is dead. I did a Factory reset on the VB71 tablet to put the Factory setting back before I perform the root script again.
Key points:
- You NEED to install make sure the Android drivers for your phone are installed
- You NEED to put your phone on USB Debugging mode (and connected) for the script to work
- Make sure you DO NOT mount your SD card
- If you still can't get something to run, try doing it in recovery mode (or set it back to Factory settings).
All the best with your rooting !

Help with Rooting Zoostorm SL8 mini.

Hello could anyone please help me with rooting my zoostorm sl8 mini running ICS. I just don't know which rooting program to use and with one will work. I have search the web now for days and cant find anything.
Please Help!
Thanks:good:
Use the Qemu exploit
This can device can be rooted using DoomLords Xperia script. I have ported the script to linux as well for Ubuntu users,
The original script is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
I haven't tested the Windows script, but I assume it will work as I haven't changed anything, the Linux script has been fully tested and I have successfully rooted the sl8 mini using it.
For Windows see below:
1) Download the attached zip file and Super1Click zip file ( http://download.cnet.com/SuperOneClick/3000-2094_4-75447027.html ).
2) Unzip the zip files into a new folders (you can use 7-zip for this : http://www.7-zip.org/)
3) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
4) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
5) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
6) Connect the table to the PC with a USB cable.
7) When the new Hardware Found Wizard find the Android device and can't find a driver, select install from speficic location and browse to drivers folder under the folder you just unzipped the Super1click file to.
8) The driver should install from here and will show as an Acer Android device.
9) If Windows complains about the driver not being signed tell it to continue anyway.
10) Reboot the Windows PC if requested by the Hardware installation Wizard.
11) Discconect and replug the USB cable.
12) Open a windows command prompt
13) Navigate to the folder where the unzipped rootsl8mini.zip files are.
14) type runme.bat
15) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
16) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
For Linux (Ubuntu Precise Pangolin)
1) Install Android SDK, make sure the folder where adb is located is in your shell path variable. See link for Ubuntu instructions (http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/07...-androidsdk-in-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/)
2) Download the attached rootsl8mini.zip file and unzip it into a folder.
3) Go into the folder where you unzipped the file and make the runme.bat.sh file executable. (Myhost:$ chmod 777 runme.bat.sh)
4) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
5) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
6) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
7) Connect the tablet to the PC with the USB cable.
8) Execute the runme.bat.sh script (Myhost:$ ./runme.bat.sh)
9) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
10) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
Enjoy
Thank you, do I go to unzipped file using command prompt?

easy way to root : http://zoostormsl8.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/root-zoostorm-sl8-mini-3310-9506.html
download and update the zip
Bought this tablet as a gift for my father and assumed that connecting it to a usb keyboard would be straightforward (yeap android noob ) . My question is , is that even possible? Is there a custom rom that can be installed, I presume after rooting the device that enables usb host mode?

Hi, here you go.... sorry for bad english
First Turn on the 'Unknown sources'. Settings-Security-Unknown sources
2nd Turn on "USB Debugging". Now since the Google Android 4.2 OS Developer Options removed from the setting, you have to go back to the settings, do it like this: You walk in settings-about phone. 7 and quickly click on the 'Build number' or 'Build number' (depending on the language). Then you can 'Developer Settings' in the options. Now enter in the settings option for developers and turn 'Remedy USB' or so-called 'USB Debugging'
3rd Connect the phone to the comp USB
4th Download the drivers and install via Device Manager) ( http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/445247/MT65xx-USB-Driver-zip.html ) . Download the Root Package.( http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/445248/Root-Package-zip.html )
5th Run run.bat, located in the root-Package
6 follow the instructions

Can't unlock bootloader in Pocophone F1

SOLVED: Issue fixed by using an USB 2.0 Port, don't use USB 3.0, it has some issues.
I've searched everywhere for a fix and still have not been able to make this work, this are the steps I have taken:
> I've created an MI Account with "Sync" and "Find Device" options enabled
> Enabled "OEM unlocking", "USB debugging", "USB debugging (Security settings)" on Developer options
> I've added my account and device on "MI Unlock status"
> Downloaded & installed ADB Driver, Mi PC Suite and Qualcomm Driver following the steps on this website:
Flashxiaomi website pokcophone f1 usb driver (can't type link here)
(After Android ADB Interface is installed it says that it might not work correctly and the device can not be started (Code 10) as shown on one of the pictures of the guide above)
> Downloaded MIUI Unlock software via the official website zip file named "miflash_unlock-en-4.5.514.47"
> Moved MIUI Unlock file to C:
> Ran as admin "MiUsbDriver" from the previous downloaded folder in order to install drivers
> Turn off my device and set it into fastboot mode
> Devices Manager > Android Phone > Android Bootloader Interface > driver tab proprieties show driver provider is "Xiaomi Technology, Inc.", driver date is "11/3/2016", and driver version is "16.0.0.0".
> Installed android_winusb.inf on MIUI Unlock | driver | win10 folder
> Ran as admin "miflash_unlock" and at this point my phone disconnects from my PC, phone shows "Press key to shutdown" on screen and by clicking the settings option on the MIUI application it tells me to click the button to install the drive
Other informations:
My pc is using intel, not AMD
What can I do?
