Development for Tablet S - Sony Tablet S

Let's root this!

root sony s1 tab.
yea root this tab i really want root

I think we can start with automated ones like GingerBreak or Superoneclick! I will test tonight...I have been looking over the web about what actually rooting process does to the device and what files it will be adding or deleting and permissions but no luck so far!

I'm looking to find out how can we do it...so far just read something about this RageAgainstthecage.bin and I don't know even if these are old or not!

finally! a section for Sony Tablet.. I don't have it yet, but I played with it a lot in the office (yeah i work at Sony).. i love this tablet, except for the SD card - media transfer only.. once rooted SD card should be mountable.. then i'll get one for me..

You can already see it on the sony tablet, you use a third party app like file manager hd to look for files or mx video player To play movies off the sd card

Don't have high hopes for unlocked bootloader...devs seem not interested and it will be only in hands of sony,,,,but at least a root would be good now!

Sigh, it's too late in my day to try this now but I'll give ita shot tmr afternoon. It'll give mea little project to work on. I just want to get this puppy overclocked anda dash of Netflix and I'll be happy

Tried that unfortunately /system/bin is a readonly file system and remounting it also gives permission denied :-(

Root Attempts so far...
Hi All -
I've had this tablet for a week, and have tried every automated rooting method available, after getting ADB to work on Windows:
SuperOneClick - freezes on step 6 using either method
Gingerbreak Local App - Hangs
iconiaroot.apk - Hangs
Transformer (via BRK or LiveCD methods) - does not detect device
Samsung Galaxy root update.zip - Fails integrity check, does not even attempt to update
Problem is no other bootloader or APX mode driver (MTP USB DEVICE) I've tried has picked up this device - either fails or says device cannot start (code 10)
- No APX mode like Transformer
- Most of these automated methods are not meant for Honeycomb 3.2, or even Honeycomb at all
Might try tonight flashing the xoom pre-rooted ROM, but that is not a true root of the S1, plus I'd miss the remote app - only the best app for the device - every single component I have working including Aperion SoundBar and AppleTV.
I'll keep trying, as I want this to replace my rooted xoom
Any thoughts/ideas - send them my way for experimentation!
~CJS~

I wouldn't get too frisky trying to access the bootloader or loading roms on it. As far as I'm aware there's no SBF file to return it back to factory. Def dancing with the devil!
We need someone with a developers version of the Sony S Tablet.

Free Vizio Tablet to someone who can root it

All,
We need a developer that can root the Vizio tablet. We are willing to pitch in a send a new tablet to whomever agrees to root it for us upon recieving it. The only prerequisite is that the developer have a proven track record of rooting phones/tablets.
Agreed. this tab has been rooted in the past, and has an unlocked bootloader. the only reason gingerbreak doesnt work is because of the /mnt/sdcard/external mounting for the actual external sd. need to change gingerbreak to compensate for this
I am going crazy over the fact that this tablet gets no attention from the dev's and no forum. There are less qualified tablets getting support on here. I absolutely love this tablet. It is a great device for only $200. Just wish it would get some attention.
so if i root it i keep it? yes give it to me i can !

we need root for .57 update now. im willing to throw 20 towards the purchase of a tablet for a dev thats willing to step up.

Proscan plt4311-pl Rooting

I need help rooting this tablet. The Proscan plt4311-pl is a small tablet running Android 4.0. I have tried OneClickRoot and SuperOneClick, neither worked. I am new to this but I would love to have full control over my tablet and install a custom ROM. Can someone please help me and put it in terms that a newbie can understand!
root proscan plt4311
This is a MIPS based tablet. (Actions 7013 based). Most apps and binaries are made for ARM. That is why the tools you mentioned didn't work. I think there is a list keeping track of what apps work and/or have been ported over at the Ainol Novo 7 basic threads.
I managed to get root access, but there's many steps involved, and honestly I'm gonna have to go back and figure exactly what I did after I get some rest but below are the tools&links and some basic instructions.
******OOps, guess I can't post links as a new user. type freetexthost.com/xvfjzr1ltq into your browser for my notes on rooting the Proscan Plt4311*********
******Edit #2: I soft bricked it trying to install ICS gapps. I re-flashed the firmware and rooted the tablet again, much quicker this time. And I managed to get play store and some other apps going. I should have a ready made script after work tommorow for you and all the other Big Lots bargain shoppers who bought this tablet (I got mine for $40!)

Well i am gonna see what can be done with this over the weekend. anyone out there care to give me a hand? im installing this thing into my car and would really like to get the playstore on it...
Just got mine on sale for $17.99 on Newegg Flash, came in the mail today. It's still doing the first charge on my 3A, shouldn't take long (no devil emote?) Can't wait to see what you devs can do for this thing! Although it is MIPS I'm sure simple apps and roms will run fine, but ARM is still preferable. But hey, it was $18. What do you expect?

I use the term "devs" very loosely here. Basically anyone willing to work on it. The first thing I'm gonna do is try to get into Recovery, and from there you could theoretically root it, install Gapps, etc.
Any updates?
I just picked up this tablet for $10. Anyone have any luck rooting it?

Still no luck here with rooting, all I got so far was the Google Apps package in.
You can root with:
POOT: This app is a one click root app. No computer needed
Framaroot: Framaroot is a oneclick root app . No computer needed
This is the most popular one!
Z4Root: Z4Root is an oneclick root app . No computer needed
Towelroot: Towelroot is an oneclick root app. No computer needed
Baidu: No information
Vroot: No information
Gingerbreak: This app can root almost all gingerbread devices

I used the info from over here and it worked a treat!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2228613
When you have turned on the debugging, you will need to switch to win 8, go to device manager and get windows to search for the asus driver. Do all this while docked of course as that is the usb connection. I also turned off asus sync on the tablet first, don't know if that makes any difference.
Have to say I'm loving the AIO, even more so now the tablet is rooted ?

There's some more info over here, a small but growing forum for us big tablet users
http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-aio-p1801-forum/
Some folks saying they couldn't get the root to take after updating the firmware, I'm glad you succeeded though, I haven't had to re-root as I already had the original firmware installed and did the root keeper before upgrading last time.
Be interesting to know what firmware you were on before rooting, maybe some others just weren't following the instructions precisely enough?

Yeah the roots definitely taken ad blockaway and super super are definitely working. I hadn't installed any updates as I read what you said about that.
Not sure how I can check the firmware? I will definitely check out that site.

First off yes the all in one will root your tab
Do the rescue backdoor script in the a.i.o
Then apply the notification patch to stop the update notification
You cant flash or install a diff os on these tabs both the sts and xts are locked down tight but there seems to be good head way with booting from the sd card on the sts
DO NOT TRY TO FLASH JB TO THE STS YOU WILL BRICK IT

Thank you so much!
Can you fill me in on what headway or a link for booting from the SD card, I really, really hate the OS this tablet has, but if it is not possible I dont know if I should bother risking it.
Honestly, I hate what sony did with this tablet, especially given the price I paid for it when it came out.
Oh never mind, I found it, http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-tablet-s/general/sony-tablet-s-sys2sd-boot-sd-card-t2818649, it looks like it is just a softboot loader for extra protection, sad I cannot use J.B. , hopefully someone will figure out how to fake an authentic update to get people out of I.C.S.
Oh well, I may as well root it just in case, the modded playstore is at least worth it.
@ragehavoc @dex9mm
What exactly does the modded Android Market / Google Play give you? You cannot download things without payment.
Do you mean, just access to APP's that are only available to certain geographic regions?
I haven't flashed / rooted a device in 3 years. Last two were HTC devices.
For the sake of an example, take me as an idiot, who cannot understand the abbreviated chatter I see everywhere, with no reference to what anything means - could you please point me to 2-3 articles that have a DETAILED list of steps and screenshots for what needs to be done to get the Bootloader sorted, plus everything else, and then flash 4.1 OS?
or, am I stuck on 4.0.3 forever, regardless of root/stock?
Thank you!

Hey yea your stuck on 4.0, sorry its the long and the short of it
The modded play store is where you can see every app or set the device to mimic an other device and see apps that are only available to said device
Do not flash jb to your device you will brick it
Rooting is about all you can achieve

Need help rooting this tablet

Posted this on another forum but I figured here would be a better place to ask.
So I just recently got a Proscan 7100g tablet (I won it for free I know its bad dont judge me) and I have no idea how to root it. Ive tried all the one click programs but none of them support this device (not surprised).
As we all know Android 4.4 is hell and I want to be able to put apps on my sd card because 4 gb is not nearly enough space.
If anybody could help I would be very grateful.
Also I already have the dev mode enabled so you dont need to go through that part.
