Please excuse my "new-ness" to the forum but I need help. Bought the G Tablet last week and need help installing a new rom on it. I have heard about the VEGAn-TAB BETA 5.1. Is this good? What would you recommend and how to I install it?
Thanks!
Courtney
Google "g tablet for dummies" . the developer of the site, username GoodIntentions did an amazing job of describing the process. It will step you through the process very clearly.
I've only had my gtab for a couple of weeks and have had no problems loading ROMs, having never rooted anything before.

Hi, I just got my Samsung Fascinate today, and I was looking forward to rooting it. It's my first Android device, and I've only used dumbphones until today. I've seen the rooting threads yet still have no clue how to root my phone.
Can anyone please take me step by step (starting with what apps I would need, if any) in order to root my phone successfully? Thank you very much!
i dont post much over here at xda but since iv had my d2 and now gal s iv been here much more so please dont think im a super noob (still a noob) but you really should just play with you STOCK phone for a one or two weeks and get to know it before u go and root it and the endless fun that comes after. i say this more or so because your coming from a "dumb phone" you really should get to know android and all of its fun ins and outs. enjoy your new phone and ur new addiction..prob should have tried heroin first

Well, let the big kids figure out how to remove Bing and make some tools that will make it easier for you to root, give it a week or so and we will have them

The first links for the drivers aren't working!!

once i started doing adb push su /sdcard/su, it says "failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Permission denied."
i'm so lost.
Someone Else posted a link to a guide with a small update to it's instructions,
The Post is in the same forum as this one topic name is Rooted, page 3, user eleazar123 posted it..
I would just drop a link to it, but Apparently i am not verified and can not post any links :-(
Hello all, I know this is proubly a dumb question but I'm a noob so please be kind. I have a Galaxy tab. 10.2 with 3.2 honeycomb on it. Now is it possible for me to root my device safely. Or should I just forget about doing this? I rooted my son's tablet that is a generic 2.2 tab. so I am not a total idiot, but far from being tech. savy. I'm new to this game and wanting so bad to be able to root my device but also just a carpenter in another world right here and just learning. Thanks for any advice that anyone can give me.

You can root safely, but just follow directions and take your time.
Hello Everyone! I am new to these forums, and to tablets in general.

Hi all, I recently purchased a Kindle Fire HDX 7, the price was too good to miss or (to be honest) I'd have bought another device; however I had it in my mind all-along that I'd flash it with another Android rom of some sort. I know by rights I should be scouring the WWW for answers on how to do this (and I have put in more hours than I really have to spare), but I have come up with nothing as the recent Fire OS 13.4.5.1 update seems to nullify Towelroot and Jcase that I found in the downloadable toolkit v.95. The first time I tried Jcase it seemed to work for a few minutes then seemed to undo itself??? I'm no pro with these things and could really use some helpful advice on how I can install a custom rom (preferably Cyanogenmod but am open to options). I hope somebody can help and thanks in advance.
Seeing as you have 4.5.1, there's really nothing you can do in terms of modding.
For now, you're stuck until someone discovers a new exploit.

I have a Lenovo vibe x2, i used to have windows-phones but since my last one got stolen i thought i would try androids out. Lenovo has now updated vibe X2 to the lollipop upgrade and i can't find a video or anything that will help me root my device.
Plus i have some questions about rooting an android :
1st. does it worth to do so ?
2nd. What will i get from rooting my phone
3rd. Is it dangerous cause my phone might bug and what will i need to do if that happens ?
I would really appreciate someone answering those questions and helping me with the root.
(a trustful guide and trustful files will do just great, i am computer experienced enough to make it through it's just some fears i need to "extinguish" )

I found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUGYK0tarBE
Although the title says Android 5.0 Lollipop but we can clearly see throughout the video that the guy is running android 4.4.2. Anyway, I've never heard of/tried kingroot so I can't be sure if its legit or not but you can give it a try.
And as for your questions:
1. Root is NOT a necessity. You can use google search to know about it and decide yourself.
2. Again you can find this by a google search.
3. There is always a risk when you mod your phone. Incase you somehow manage to brick it by that simple tutorial, I guess your device would have some stock firmware online which you can download and reflash by some kind of flashtool to restore to stock.
Cheers,
AJ
