Go to FreakTab dot com. The guys over there have Fully rooted the Stock firmware and converted the stock cramfs file system to ext4. There is separate ROMs for the Polaroid 7200 or 700. Includes the latest Google Market and Talk. This makes the Tablet super fast and stable. ( I have the PMID700 running finless bobs Polaroid 700 v1.4 with market ) All the info, drivers, and rom is in a 100 mb zip at Freaktab.
The performance gain and usefulness is so amazing... don't wait, read up and upgrade your tablet today. Its unbelievable the improvement.
The guys at Freaktab have figured out how to root various cramfs Tablets and convert to ext3 or ext4 from the stock Update.zip. Arnova, Polaroid, Nextbook 7, Go Clever, MOMO7, Most or all Rockchips based and Requests for Rockchip based Tablets.

I'm.new and to make sure I'm following the right post... The PMID703c is a Rockchip, Allwinner A8 or A10 tablet?

Finally The PMID703c is rootable
I have Found The Solution so you can root and put custom roms and everything else you desire to do on the PMID703c!!
If you plash the firmware that I will upload in my next comment you get the playstore automatically installed already rooted and everything and it only has a few issues, the tablets hard home button is now the volume up button the hard volume up button is now the volume down button and the screen has to stay in landscape mode because the tilt sensor thinks that up is down but I am confident that if someone helps that develops firmware or knows how to fix this helps we can do the rooting flawlessly

I have discovered that the firmware will not fit as an attachment so i must get you a link for it i will publish it to an open google drive
BEWARE DO NOT try to change SYSTEM FONTS!!! The Tablet WILL get stuck in the all mighty infamous Boot Loop, And using clockwork mod to try and fix it will NOT work when you get stuck in boot loop with this tablet you must re flash with firmware

my wifi shuts off in 10 minutes if i do not get you links by tonight i can get them to you in the morning

my last resort is to make a picture post of how to get to the links unfortunately you will have to type them yourself

Most, if not all, Polaroid tablets are rooted right out of the box! That's pretty cool I must say. All I did was install SuperUser and ROManager and it asked for Root Permission. That's what I did to make sure it was really rooted, or you could just download a Root Checker app to see if its really rooted. Now the only thing I want is a Recovery of some sort and a ROM for it. Its the Polaroid PMID704, no luck searching on those sites mentioned in previous post though. Also was able to over clock it to 1200 from the stock 1008. Occasionally it gets frozen, maybe cause of the Over clocking, I heard 1100-150 is a good area, in case someone else wants to know with the same tablet.

Try the website freaktab.com they I know have lots of good roms for lots of devices would you mind telling me the specs on the pmid704

Your Tablet Not Supported!
it looks as if Polaroid no longer supports this tablet, I'm sorry bud, i cant help or find anywhere anything that is useful to your situation your best bet atm would be to send polaroid a message and get them to send you instructions on how to reset your tablet or atleast give you a copy of the firmware/rom for your tablet or maybe even get them to fix it for you

[DISCUSSION] Dual Boot Linux

Okay, we've got our bootloader unlocked, we're rooted, CWM, and custom rooms; where's the dual booting linux? I know we have that vpn stuff, but what about turning this beast into a computer. We could even get some of this hacking in on the go with backtrack. I may be wrong, but this is all possible, right? I'm a bit of a noob in dual booting on a tablet, so don't flame if I'm way off or something, but I think it would be neat... Thoughts, ideas, etc.... tell me what you think.
Edit: Or do we need nvflash unlocked?
Edit2: Okay guys, now we know (or at least I do) that Ubuntu is in progress. You can check it out over at www.androidroot.mobi. Soo.. Lets make this the discussion thread (Info, Q's, discussions, debates, etc... whatever...). Enjoy and I'll try to update with new info (feel free to give your insight)
I am sure you'll get flamed for posting in the wrong section but I am eagerly awaiting someone to get dual boot running.
My no development skills at all guess is nvflash is the problem.
We'll let someone who knows correct me though.

Anyone knows if there is already a public repository for the Ubuntu dualboot?

Also is the same approach used as for the TF101 dualboot or is the partitioning different?
Keep up the great work so far guys!
I hope to see dual boot with Ubuntu one day as it'll save me the trouble of keeping my netbook for days when I need to do MATLAB and other things exclusive to PCS. Would love to see an implementation where android is still kept in internal memory and Ubuntu is kept in the microsd/sd (not sure how performance would be if this was the case though)

I'm pretty surprised no-ones got this to work yet too! Shame really as I used to use skygo at work to watch crap when bored.
you can unroot it temporarily
I've tried many times and it only ever works if I completely reset/format the phone back to stock. Just surprised no-ones patched the apk accordingly!
use superSU's full unroot. if that doesn't work - uninstall superSU
Tried and tried ... Still fails to work, I can only get it to work by doing a full factory wipe and restore which tbh I can live without it, it's more of a case that I would of thought people would of patched the apk by now!
Cheers for the help though.
maybe you're doing something wrong, because the full unroot should work

Sony Tablet S Honeycomb

You know what guys, I really miss honeycomb. Especially the way you add widgets and also the customization that Sony did with the app drawer- they shouldn't have gotten rid of it in my opinion.
I still have my old Tablet S (Although with a cracked screen sadly)
Is it possible (I have root) to downgrade to 3.2?
Why did Google get rid of the awesome screen which added widgets.
Or perhaps someone could send the launcher?
Ive done extensive research and tried many methods and asked people alot smarter than me it cant be done until the bootloader is u locked. Once it is than we can the reason is because the recovery has been updated in the current version of android and once it is you cant go back because it is part of the Rom and is hidden. Yes ive tried downgrading and before I got bootlooped it said cannot because of recovery version. I WASTED about 2 months on this idea as well as a few other people and also Condi the best dev we have over here for the tablet s has tried and theres still no way until the bootloader. Ive also looked at testpoint unlock but if you've ever looked at the motherboard theres gazillions of testpoints so who knows which is the right one plus taking it apart isnt exactly a walk in the park like it is with phones. Youll just have to wait like me. Btw head over and sign the bootloader unlock petition.

[Q] Casio Commando G'zOne 4G LTE C811

So, the first Casio Commando G'zOne was a very tough phone. Came stock with Gingerbread 2.3 and no recovery, only a hard reset option. Surprisingly it was quite popular.
Now, the new Casio Commando G'zOne 4G LTE is available stock with ICS 4.0 and will be attracting many consumers. Unfortunately, I don't know if it has it's own recovery or not.
Wanted to know if anyone has got one and if it has it's own recovery or not (aside from the stock hard reset option).
Also, any devs looking into creating a custom ROM for this device? I'd be highly interested in any information on a custom ROM for this device! Thanks!!

I'm using one right now. There is no button combination to get into recovery. However if you do get into recovery via commands or toolkit you cant navigate to any options.

Well snap, I was anxious to see some custom ROMs for the device.
I did I quick Google search and found some links to people fining a way to root but since they cant navigate in recovery they cant load a ROM. Maybe someone can flash a recovery with fastboot or adb.

Just saw this phone on the VZW site and droooooooled. I'm in construction, so the rugged phone appeals to me far more than all the high end hardware phones do.
Is stock ICS on it functional, or buggy? I'm thinking about picking it up on the EDGE pay as you go plan, but I was curious about usability during the time when I'm trying to root/recovery/flash the thing. It's been a while since I've done much custom ROM building, but if I can get a working recovery, it would be worth trying to build CM10.2 for this

Easy to root I have seen but need recovery. Hopefully CASIO comes out with a OTA.
Koush used to have a generic recovery cooker on his website. Plug in the mount points for system, data, cache, and boot along with some other stuff (I can't remember what offhand) and it spits out a recovery for your device. Might be worth looking into

I'm a noob to the world of all things root I have the original commando the is the m140 root impossible. I'm considering the C811 Commando2 is it root capable All I really want is to be able to remove the bloatware Verizon is likely to put on there. Would that be possible?
http://builder.clockworkmod.com/
This is the one I was thinking of. If any of you are rooted and have the information required here, make a backup up the recovery partition and give it a shot. What's the worst that could happen, you restore the backup? This is assuming you CAN read and write to the recovery with adb/fastboot.
I bought c811 as a second phone to use it in a gsm network, everything works perfectly out of the box but phone is rejecting all incoming calls, I've read exactly the same is happening to people using phone in Canada gsm networks and with at&t sim cards. I've rooted the phone and I've disabled all Verizon bloatware but no luck.
Any clue about this will be highly appreciated.

I've been fighting with my phone just so i can get the update. When i rooted the thing, and froze some apps, apparently something changed in ASUSmirror, and its not letting the update through.
I'm stuck trying to get around the issue. i cant even find a way to make a backup with TWRP or clockwork mod. TWRP doesn't support the device, and ROM manager wont install it because it doesn't support it either. I'd love to try a few other ROMs on this thing until an official Lollipop ROM comes down the pipe, or a custom one comes out that lets me use the pad AND have LTE.
I will say that I've noticed higher ram usage, but better utilization with the update. That is based on my observation that I've gotten less random app closures while multitasking. Before if I was listening to Pandora and opened my browser or Facebook, it would close Pandora in the background.

It's something called "IntelAndroid-FBRL-07-24-2015" -- I think you can find it if you search the forum. Make sure you have ADB installed.
If you run it from Launcher.bat and choose option P4 with CWM from the first menu, it boots into Clockwork Mod. From there, you can install SuperSU from your /sdcard path (or some subfolder) and you're set. Just make sure it's at /SDCARD and not the /Removable/MicroSD path, so you may need to use the file explorer to get it there.
Lauren
BUT install a program called "Root Booster" ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ram.memory.booster.cpu.saver ) and pay for Stability Boost. You'll find your PadFone mini crashes a lot less after doing this and uninstalling some apps. Use Jumobile's System App Remover (ROOT) to uninstall some of the AT&T bloatware (Famigo is a good one to remove first).... it has a recycle bin so it can reverse if you remove something in error providing you don't REALLY mess it up.
