ROOT achieved for 2.1 FW.
Sometimes the first method isn't always the best:
*edit*
A new app has appeared on the market called "z4root". This seems to root in one click.
Details are here.
Install this from the Market, press Root and you're away.
Old Methodm should it still be required:
This requires you to have 2.1 already (either Nordic, or other generic, or using Bin4ry's flashtool version here.
instructions and files as below.
Download the SuperOneClick (files attached) or original post here
Updated Superoneclick version 1.5.4
v1.5.4
Fixed superuser install issue
Added a prompt to tell you to allow superuser on your phone, for the test.
Fixed unroot.
It can take a while to ROOT - looks as though it is stuck in a loop. I thought it wasnt working but waited about 10mins and it worked.
If you wait longer and it still doesn't work, try untick/retick USB debug while it's running
Hey Presto - ROOT !
Thanks CVCHETAN for adding the attachments & tidying it up.. it was late
Remember you will probably want Busybox too - click Problems from within Titanium to download.
NOTE: If you're having no luck with this, it seems the PDANet client might install different drivers which help the process. If you're struggling this might be worth a try. Also ticking Unknown Applications allows it to send the SuperUser.apk has reported to help some users.
PdaNet Client is here.
Pre-requisites not mentioned in this post:
Working 2.1 X10
Drivers must be installed for X10 Debug mode - try adb manually to check
Some virus checkers might flag these files - this is because an exploit can be a security risk, but 100% virus free
You run this all on your PC - it connects to your phone and roots it from there.
Doesnt work for me, get failed! No ~~FU GOO~~ or something
Tried different versions of the app
Hmmm Barnacle isn't working quite as expected (even after setting athwlan0), but Titanium is definitely giving root...
will post a pic in a bit, have another x10 to update / root first
None of them work for me.

SE site..
wait ill zip it nd upload it
i didnt need to swap any files..
i downloaded the package on that link, it looked like it was stuck in a loop but i left it 10mins came back and it said worked.
only difference is that first time i did shell root - then i did a proper root afterwards, not sure if this makes a difference
very happy here..
Thanks mate!
thread moved to dev section and stickied..
should also say i had to download busybox in titanium.. click problems on the front screen.
Veryyyy happy.. not only is it rooted now but I get very slight credit for it.
If you've got the loop leave it running, about to do another handset now so will see whats different
Still cant get it to work, can anyone who got this to work write a step by step please?
it's very easy
you yust start the exe click on root now it tooks al very long times
(<10 mins) and in this time the programm try very often to root the device
then a message come up
and your device is rooted
I'm getting "Waiting for device..."
make sure you've got USB debugging turned on
after installing 2.1 it will default to off
It's turning on.
sweet thank you very much.
right, now to get rid of that blue....

Hello,
I bought a asus transformer, is there a way to share my internet (3g) with my xperiax10 to the tablet?
i tried barnacle and it wont find it, i need somthing to share it with bluetooth i think but wireless tethering wont work on my phone.
Thx.
It is possible to tether with barnacle, you just need to follow the steps at the end of jerpeleas CM7 thread.
Of course you need to have root access.
"GUIDE barnacle wifi teeter -GreatBigDog
1 First turn WiFi off
2 su (In terminal emulator)
3 /data/data/net.szym.barnacle/files/wifi load (In terminal emulator too)
4 Then open barnacle and press start. !!!
Barnacle setting "skip wpa_suppliant" needs to be checked and WAN set to rmnet0"

The way I solved this issue was to flash zkernel to my phone. I actually have a video on my youtube showcasing it. In the description you can find the links to what I did:
http://youtu.be/Z_CesOW55Wk?hd=1&t=4m40s
Flash zKernel (get the stable version):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135475
Download and install android wifi tether (in the video I have the Eclair Evo version but you can probably install the latest beta):
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
Good luck!
hi, thats the problem i have, what do i have to do with te kernel files? ThX
Root your phone, install Xrecovery .03, make sure you are on bb54+, flash Zkernel, download and install the wirelesstether.apk, and finally tether it up son!
hi, i did what you said but it wont work, cant create.....read only file system when i hit install xrecovery.
Thx for all the help.
Did you install busybox yet? If so, make sure it is installed to system/bin to make it all work.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Good Luck!!!

hi, i did it now and i think xrecovery did it but wifi tether sill says kernel not have necessary features for running app. Thx

Mini tuto I did with root explorer:
1.- Uncompress module in sdcard and copy in folders following instructions.
2.- Give 'x' priviliges to basic_iptables.sh and full_iptables.sh (I forgot this before )
Long click over file, permissions, click on execute in Owner.
3.- Now clic on full_iptables.sh and execute. (another mistake I had was executing basic_iptables. Only works Droidwall with full_iptables for me)
4.- Go DroidWall and load firewall. All OK.
But now I have a problem. If I reboot phone, Droidwall doesn't work again. I have to run full_iptables.sh after each reboot. Do you need too???
Thanks
I added this line to hw_config.sh and it works after reboot:
sh /system/xbin/full_iptables.sh

After that you need a program to specify rules. I use Droidwall, it's free in the market. I only need to block some programs, and Droidwall does that. I hope somebody can help you.

Haven't seen anyone posted the CIFS module for stock Dell Streak kernel. So, attached a copy here for your streaming enjoyment, built from streak_3.09_kernel, tested on stock ROM 360.
Remember to load slow-work.ko before cifs.ko
Happy streaming
UPDATE: Attached nls_utf8.ko in case anyone needed the UTF-8 support as well.
Thank you !!!

No worry, yay I got a thank meter now
Btw looks like you're using 360 ROM as well. Do you notice wifi turning off when you lock the screen with the power button? Looks like I need to solve that one now to be able to stream music with the screen off
UPDATE: It doesn't seems to be entirely shut off when screen is turned off. Audio plays intermittently, 2-5 seconds pause, continue playing, all over again. Not skipping though
That is very annoying to me too, bcs I do a lot of Skype voicing but have to keep the screen on bcs of the connectivity issue on the wifi . Yes exactly the same symptoms but not only on the 360 also on other customed ROM . Atm I am using 2.3.3 from fardo and the same issue here too.

Good news that it isn't because a bug on the cifs module I built as I've modified some code
I think I remembered having the same problem with IM+, sometimes I found my session disconnected when turning the screen back on.
It seems to be the problem with some bandwidth limiter when screen is turned off. There is already a solution, not sure if we can apply it to Streak's firmware.

thanks alot for this mate one of the best streak mods ever!!
just to clarify,
1) flash slow-works.ko via streakmod/cwm
2) flash cifs.ko
right?

Hmm the zip files on the first post isn't a clockworkmod update.zip. You need to copy over manually on rooted systems.
But I've packaged them as update.zip in this post's attachment
Basically, the easiest way to enable cifs support is now:
1) Flash cifs-streak360-update.zip with StreakMod or CWM.
2) Install CifsManager.
3) Open CifsManager settings, check the "Load cifs module".
4) Make sure "Load via insmod" is checked.
5) Set the "Path to cifs.ko[:<modpath>]*" to "/system/lib/modules/slow-work.ko:/system/lib/modules/cifs.ko", without the quotes.
6) Now the cifs module won't get loaded on system startup, but instead loaded on demand when you start CifsManager before attemping to mount samba shares.

Tried just now with no luck
flashed everything installed fine and the services are up and running (checked via adb lsmod) but cifs manager fails stating that 'Mounting the share has failed with an error. Mount: invalid argument'. I am confident that everything is setup properly and the network share path is correct. I tried both with the netbios name and the ip address but still, no luck. Any thoughts chaps?

Try flashing with Superuser.zip rooting script. Could've been requiring mount command which came from busybox from the Superuser.zip. Not sure as I haven't ever done that without busybox and (possibly) mount symlinked.

well I have root and cifsmanager obtains root access correctly, and I have busybox installed as well (1.19 iirc).
to troubleshoot I have also tried a 'clean' mount command from shell which reads
# su mount -t cifs -o username=xxx,password=yyy //server/path /mnt/cifs/
and I still get mount: invalid argument.
Quite baffled I am

Nothings changed. I notice though that the error goes away (or at least changes) as soon as I remove the -t argument. I tried just for checking to mount blabla -t nfs and i still get invalid argument. It seems that mount cannot understand -t ??? doesnt make sense
Hi,
Just done a factory reset and upgraded to r5 , this is a UK tablet, region changed to US and flashed. I then rooted using Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v13 . After several try I got it working, but I had to use a signed VPNfaker to accomplish this.
So now I want to use a VPN, before I used OpenVPN, this worked perfectly, now it fails to connect. I get the error - Running on Sony Tablet S (nbx03) Sony, Android API 15. Your image does not support the VPNService API, Sorry
I tried to use OpenVPN Connect , getting the error due to a know bug in this version of android it is not possible to gain permission to open a VPN Tunnel.
So last attempt using the built in L2tp/IPSec option, with this I just get a timeout error. No Connection.
So was it the rooting method damaged or changed something with VPN or is it this version US R5 ?
Anyone got VPN working on US R5 ?
OpenVPN is working fine on my tablet S with release 5. I use the apps 'OpenVPN Installer' and 'OpenVPN Settings' from Google Play...

That was the second option I tried. I enabled the VPN service, then selected the VPN I want to connect. It initiates the connection then stops after a second with no results in the log file. Did you try any of the other VPN apps that don't require root, OpenVPN Connect (I think US Market only) or OpenVPN for Android, this work really well on my Xperia S .
How did you root your Tablet ?
Did you do the incremental update or full install ?
I flashed the full update and basically used the same method like you. I also had to sign VpnFaker.apk for my Swiss tablet... I don't remember any issuses installing OpenVPN (OpenVPN Installerhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schaeuffelhut.android.openvpn.installer, OpenVPN Settingshttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schaeuffelhut.android.openvpn). Interestingly, no tun.ko module is required.
I quickly tried the apps you suggested and which don't require root. But they didn't work for me in a quick test.

Ok, so tried re-installing busybox, tun.ko, OpenVPN settings and OpenVPN installer however still it's not working. I am thinking the problem is deeper than this though. The built in VPN options L2TP/IPSec and PPTP are both failing to work. I just get a time out error. I have uploaded a section of the catlog if someone could have a look at it.
I am still stuck with this problem. I used AIO tool to setup boot loop protection and then re installed the full R5 on top of the old installation. I didn't do a factory reset though, I don't have the time to re install everything.
And still the problem persists.
I am unable to create any VPN
Anyone any ideas ?
ok. Factory Reset.
Factory Reset, reinstalled R5. Titanium Backup restore and still no VPN. I give up.
Sorry to hear that... for more information about the initiation process of your VPN, you could try to start the openvpn binary in a terminal as root with an increased verbosity level... just to see at which step the process actually fails

would that give me more or the same as a logcat ?
Could you give me a quick idea how to do this in terminal ?
Well, I am not an expert, but your logfile was just little use for me...
Steps for running openvpn in terminal:
Open terminal
Type 'su' to get root
Change to the directory with your profiles using 'cd PROFILEDIR'
Type 'openvpn' for getting all command line options
To start a connection type something like 'openvpn --config PROFILE.ovpn --verb 3 '
I couldn't test this with my connection because I haven't figured out how to pass my key for my certificate. But I think this is the way to go.
