Anyone root an android device with no volume controls? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk

There's a touch CWM you can try...

Really, which one?
The problem is, you can't boot to AVX with no volume controls.

If you meant to boot to recovery you can using adb or terminal emulator just type in
su
reboot recovery

There are numerous apps on the market for getting into your bootloader(if unlocked),and into recovery. Reboot for example, if your not familiar with the terminal or ADB.

Oh, and to root a phone, please give the name of the phone your rooting, and the android version. Froyo, gingerbread....... take gingerbread for example,you could use gingerbreak. Other examples would be zerg,one click,as well as through ADB using the right files and place them in all the right places and setting correct permissions.

Usually rooting steps: temp root (e.g. SuperOneClick) --> flash recovery --> boot into recovery --> flash superuser.zip (su & Superuser.apk) --> reboot
I believe the recovery is platform specific, make sure you have recovery for your tablet.

it works with amonra but, you gotta mount system and and data in recovery before using to get full root access in the app, but the app is amazing
This is really great when you are stuck on boot and you have no PC around..but anyone tested on p500?

I already said I did on Amonra... It works great, best solution to using adb
I use Amon Ra, can u show me how to install it?
Just use update.zip I think
I haven't use amonra in a long time so not that sure

It works, but there is an touchscreenbug for me.
Filemanager:
This doesn't create any shortcut in recovery. You need to flash the .ZIP to start the Filemanager.
But it's good, and I hope the toucscreenbug is gone in the ext version.

Yep, should be able to push the stock recovery image via adb or terminal emulator as described in this thread:
Edit: Just realized you're not on a VZW GS3 but there are probably similar instructions for yours.

I think you have to reboot after pressing install script and then reboot into recovery. You lost root?

I fed the panda to soff so I don't know about the method you used. But if you lost root you might have to re root. I'm not sure

Get quickboot from the market, its free. It has the option to bot into recovery. Saves wear on the buttons as well.

Thanks guys for all the help.
For anyone in the same situation I ended up using regaw's rooter. Worked like a charm.

Not sure if there is any other way, but the way I did it required a computer/laptop to fastboot flash a Custom recovery through adb

Yes the rooting is the same and the link developweb gave you is the easiest instructions and it is how I rooted my I717r. However....
If after installing Recovery (cwm or twrp) and you reboot into recovery to install superuser you find out you still have stock recovery installed then you need to do an extra step. Depending on how your phone was updated there may be a script installed that restores the stock recovery. So after you install custom recovery remove your battery while it is rebooting. This will prevent the script from reinstalling stock recovery. Then boot into recovery yourself to install superuser.
Info about rooting the Canadian version is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775263
I rooted my I717r with ICS installed. I installed ICS using odin and the script was not on my phone. I believe if your phone was updated via OTA then it got the script. I have no idea if this script is carried over into jellybean or not.
Thanks a lot everyone
