Rooting PC Tablet (2.2 Froyo) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I received a few days ago a PC Tablet (a cheap one), Storex eZeeTab7r with Android 2.2 Froyo installed. I'm thinking about rooting it but I'm afraid not to brick it cuz it's kind of no-name, no known brand and really don't think it's supported by any rooting aplication.

Anyway, I've installed z4root and when I pressed the root button it says that I must enable usb debugging, but when I go to settings>applications there is no Developer menu there.

First you can't brick anything by trying to root it-the worst thing tbat could happen is that theroot failed.Second try using gingerbreak.
Sent from my Optimus Me using xda premium

download z4root the apk file than install it manually on your tab
put the usb on debug mod than run the z4root app click on root
wait 15 minutes than the tab reboot and gongrats
tested on my storex tab and worked

Solution

[Q] Impossible to root Galaxy 5 (GT-I5500)

Hello! I'm new here and I searched for a similar thread but I didn't find one so don't sweat me with the search posts and read the whole post before commenting...
So, I tried to root Galaxy 5 (GT-I5500) which runs Android 2.2 and it just looks impossible. Programs I tried to use are Super One Click, z4root and Universal Androot.
Problem with SOC is that it stops responding after 2 messages appear:
Killing ADB Server...
Starting ADB Server... daemon not running. Starting it on port 5
After this it stops working... (Have the drivers for the phone and ADB stuff installed!)
The problem with z4root is that after "Acquiring root shell" my phone vibrates and just kicks me out from the program with no messages/warnings.
Universal Androot (1.6.2 b5) Says it's unable to root and that's it.
It seems that this phone has some kind of protection because I saw many other people unlocking this phone with all 3 programs I mentioned.
I got this phone from VIP SRB and I heard that if you buy a phone with contract like I did, they will somehow lock it to make it almost impossible to root.(I guess it's not impossible, that's why I'm asking you guys)
So my question is how to crack that protection that this phone has (If it has one) and how do I finally root it.
Same problem for me....
I have the same problem and posted a thread a couple of days ago.
I had already rooted my i5500, but I had a problem with titanium backup that I installed on it...it ended up stuck in the loop screen when I pulled the battery on it. I couldn't get the phone to do a factory restore by pressing whichever buttons I needed to, so I had to flash another rom, using Odin (latest one, i think...the phonebase is WJP4) to it and use backup to restore apps and setting etc..
I now can't root it using the same methods you have and get the same error messages. Although with Super One Click it gets to stage 3 of rooting and then it's as though I have pulled the USB cable out, so it can't finish the root
I am going to flash an older rom to it and see if that has any effect...I want to eventually put a custom rom on it!!!
this worked for me...
After my last post here I tried reflashing a stock rom to my i5500 to see if that was the problem and it didn't, still had the same issues as you did.
My success came when I used Unlock Root 2.2. You have to install it on your computer and enable USB debugging on your phone (as with SuperOne Click) but it worked without errors!
I hope this method works for you (I think it would have worked without me reflashing my phone), let me know if it works
Worked OK!

[Q] Rooting android 4.04 allview P5

Hello, i just recently purchased an Allview P5 smartphone, it's really cost efficient but recently i started getting some problems because the phone is not rooted and i was wondering how to root the android 4.04. i tried the superoneclick 2.3.3 and installed adb and something from java, bu when i rung the program superoneclick the program just freezes and it's not responding. any suggestions or guides that i should follow?
best regards
Chris
Try root for HaiPai I9220. For me it works.
Having the same problem here, Superoneclick freezes on step 7 iirc.
HaiPai didn't work for me either
So that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923764
There you will find this: http://www.mediafire.com/view/?othd1gf76pa97zg
It is 100% functional, but need more knowledge and skill.
Ok, I came a lot further this time, but still stuck.
As soon as I let Cygwin `patch` the recovery.img, it does the patching and stuff, but it doesn´t create a new recovery.img for some reason..
If you check page 13 of that PDF manual: I get all the same messages in Cygwin, except for that "Repacking" bit.
Any Idea why it isn't repacking?
Losing my nerves a bit because of Cygwin, what a horrible program to get to work properly. Installation went on beyond 100%, till about 2000% and then just started to count further in negatives >____<
You must have installed 7-zip archive program.
SuperOneClick should work for this device. You may try this:
1) unmount the sd-card, turn ON usb-debugging
2) turn OFF usb-debugging
3) connect device to PC
4) click "Root"
5) when "Waiting for Device" appear turn ON usb-debugging
6) when "Starting ADB Server..." turn OFF usb-debugging
7) then turn it back ON
8) and back OFF
9) repeat this while "Waiting for Device" appears again.
@Stovka: I have 7zip installed, the unpacking/extracting of the recovery.img goes fine in Cygwin, but for some reason it just skips the repack part.
@AndreyETO: As soon as I disable debugging mode, superoneclick stops the procedure, so I didn't get far with that
So sorry, I don't really know what is the problem...
It was all ok for me - the one problem was that I had not installed 7-zip, but after installing it worked exactly according to instructions.
If it were successful: after recording recovery.img to the phone is first necessary to go into CWM mode (no run phone) and install the root file attached. End CWM recovery mode is classically done by clicking on "reboot system now", but after the first time there appears one more option (just I don't know what name), which must be confirmed! Otherwise, when you restart the phone again, then will be loaded the original file and the recovery process must be repeated - upload modified recovery.img and then root file via CWM.

Same experience on Allview P6 Stony (P6_0201_V1179 software build). This method works for me - similarly I had to run the script (and the reboot cycle) 2x before it had an effect.
As pointers for others, before you try this method you need to make sure you have ADB drivers installed. Trying to install stock google drivers didn't work at all for me, what worked for me was installing latest PdaNet drivers (pdanetZ350.exe) from here: junefabrics.com/android/download.php *
Don't forget to install OTA Rootkeeper app afterwards and run it once - hopefully saves you the hassle of rooting again if the P6 should receive an incremental update.
Enjoy, thanks Flapperbol!

Version 18 also works
Just to let you guys know that version 18 of Root_with_restore works. I just the ADB drivers from the PDAnet install (which I cancelled after the drivers were installed) and the phone is now rooted!
Does anybody know how to get rid of those ugly allview icons? I hate those things.

As an alternative, is there a way to install CM-10 or CM-11 on it? (yeah, I expect if no developers have one here, it might be difficult to develop an image for it). For now I haven't needed to root it, as it's doing what I need for now, but if I want to start moving apps (or app data) off to a microSD card, I may need a root or CM1x version (and Google needs to be *smacked* for disabling SDcard functionality in later Android versions).
I have just purchased one of these NB7022S tablets from Staples as well. I have unsuccessfully been trying to root it for the last couple of days. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I have one of these Nobis NB7022s tablets as well, but the screen has been broken. So since the tablet isn't usable in it's current state, would it be of use to someone to do a teardown/analysis of the device in order to make a CyanogenMod port to it?
success
Just rooted the nb7022s using kingo root. First download the android software developer kit on your pc then open the sdk manager and download every possible update in order to have the correct drivers, not sure which one did the trick because i just downloaded everything. Then in your tablet go to settings-about tablet- then scroll down to build number and click 7 times to unlock developers options on the main settings screen. Go to developers options and turn it on and enable usb debugging. Plug tablet into your PC and install and run kingoroot. Should connect and root your tablet and automatically install superuser. Now I just need to figure out what version of clockworkmodrecovery to flash as recovery because this tabket does not have a supported cwmr, any help on that would be awesome because i dont want to brick my very first rooted device lol. Hopefully this info might help another newbie like myself.
thanks buzzdb666 for the tip on rooting. However, now every time I turn off the tablet and on, it always does a factory reset/wipe so I have to reinstall everything . Wondering if you've encountered the same thing?
Would be an interesting experiment to try, but again, the tablet has a broken screen, and I can't have a mouse *and* a connection to the computer at the same time. I had thought I could at least get the debug info from the tablet in case someone wants to develop an image for a non-broken unit. Once again, it's available if any XDA developers would like to use it for tear-down or testing, since I can't do much with it otherwise. Unless there's a way to extract what someone would need via a microSD card.
Mine is doing the same thing after using Kingo Root. Not sure what can be done since I can't go backwards now.

HiSense A2 rooting possible? No connection to Samsung Gear S2/S3

Hello together,
I have a really big problem with my new HiSense A2 (with 6.0.1 Marshmellow)
This is a double-side Android-Smartphone from Alibaba with a 5.5" LCD on front and a 5,2" EInk on back.
So, it will be impossible to find a working custom ROM, for this device as I believe.
I really love this device - if two problems were solved....
1. Problem
Tried to unroot with RootKHP Pro 1.9 - when finished, it says OK - device is rooted, but SU says not rooted and no access to the system-directory.
Then tried KingoRoot - it recognice the Device as Hisense A2 but brakes operation and can't root it.
Is there a possibility to root this Smartphone?
Had rooted all my devices in past cause using titan-backup and other apps that needs root-access.
2. Problem
I'm developing watchfaces for the Samsung Gear S2 and S3 and own this wearables.
Unfortunately the app "Samsung Gear" isn't compatible to the HiSense.
So I got the three apps:
- Samsung Gear
- Samsung Accessory Service
- Gear S Plugin
from my old (and rooted) Smartphone, a LG G2 and installed them onto the HiSense.
Installation was sucessful and everything seemed to be OK.
Can connect the Gear S2/S3 with Bluetooth to the HiSense, they appear as paired devices in the bluetooth-list.
But the app Samsung Gear could'nt establish a connection to the Watches and stays in searching mode - anyhow the Watches are paired and accepted the code with 6 numeric chars..
Is there a way to get Samsung Gear connecting the Watches and push the notifications from the HiSense onto the Watches?
Searched hours and hours in the web for help.
But could'nt find a help anywhere.
Hope, some here can help me to become glad with the Hisense.
kind regards
Veronica
If someone is looking for rooting the Hisense A2.
The multilingual version 6.03.09.00 is rootable with:
https://drfone.wondershare.com/andr...medium=droidmodderx1&utm_campaign=androidroot
The app costs $20, but only one, I found, what works.
kind regards
Veronica
Hi,
I tried to root my A2 using kingroot, towelroot, framaroot and one click root apps without success before I found this thread.
drfone app showed "rooted" although the phone was not rooted. Meanwhile, the windows version offers rooting for free and it rooted my phone. However, I am trying to unbrick it since the following reboot...
It is quite possible that this problem would not exist without the numerous previous failed attempts.
Regards
Peter
Hi Peter,
do I understand correct, DrFone in Windows free version was able to root your A2, but now your device is bricked after a reboot?
This sounds really fatal.
Hope, you're able to bring your Phone back to lifeain - crossing fingers for.
If your A2 is working again, could you explain, what you did with, please?
kind regards

https://pan.baidu.com/s/1cfHYMy
Password: 15k5
1.2. down load and copy SdCard root `A2.bin`
1.3 power off phone
1.4 volume up + volume down and power button
if success sd card upgrade mode begin.
PS: JOYGRAM
Hello, everybody,

Anybody know of a way?
