[Q] Rooting Kobo Vox after Android 2.3.4 update - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Although numerous methods exist for various Android Phones/Tablets, because Kobo Vox is technically an eReader, I think it gets overlooked.
I have rooted my machine when running 2.3.3 but now it has force upgraded to 2.3.4, none of the processes seem to work (e.g. SuperOneClick, DoomLord).
The script errors refer to inability to write to various Tablet folders and hence updating fails; I wonder if the OS upgrade has somehow 'locked' folders in read only mode?
This question probably relates to a lot of different Android devices but, obviously, I only need Kobo specific info.
Any advice will be gratefully received.

[Q]Can you identify this Herotab S80?

Sorry to bother, but I am looking to buy this unit, and have absolutely no luck in trying to identify this unit by any other names. I want to be able to upgrade to GB, or higher, and do not want to be stuck with an un- upgradeable orphan. Thanks to anyone who can help.....back to your original program....

[Q] How do you back up apps/data (without root)

Hey everybody, I'm trying to back up my apps/data to my computer. I am currently rooted but I will be unrooting tomorrow so Titanium Backup isn't the answer. I just need to save things like game save data, etc. There is probably a simple way that I am overlooking here.

Very nice development :O
not possible as like the iPhone, you have to be jailbroken to access system files.
The same applies here, you need root to enter data/datadata

[Q] A silly question but just in case...

Apologies in advance as I am just new to Android ROM development and still trying to get my head round how it works.
I've got a build environment set up which allows me to compile and run the boot to Gecko emulator. In theory, fingers crossed, that should allow me to compile Android.
If I can compile Android. Would I be able to put that on my phone and it would run or would I need to get the device drivers for my phone and merge them with the compiled Android image?

Change Device Status

Hi, I'm on the tmobile version of the S3 and am running the latest radio with a JB leaked rom via XquiziT v34 and kitchen v10.
I am wanting to alter the Device Status settings so it reads from "modified" to either "normal/unmodified" or "Not available." The reason I would like to change it is not for warranty reasons, but because I want to be able to get AllShare Cast to work. I just purchased the dongle and previously had it working on another rom, wanamlite, and I would like it to work on this rom I'm currently running. I've also used Triangle Away to reset the counter back to 0.
Knowing what I've read from all around the forum, I've found out that Samsung doesn't want rooted users who have a modified rom using their exclusive products. And to do that, they created those measures to prevent the usage of their products from modified versions of their stock rom. So unless you have a completely stock rom, you won't be able to get it to fully work. I've tried just about everything else I could think of like flashing various radios, kernels, roms, and triangle away. I was only able to get it to work with a stock rom.
So if anyone can either show me how to alter it, or point me in the right direction on how I can achieve that, that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
