Hi all.. Has anyone been able to successfully remount a Verizon EH03 for rooting?
Like I've seen people report on other forums, this line "mount -o remount,rw -t rfs /dev/block/stl19 /system" returns an Operation not permitted.
Short of installing a custom rom, how can I get 2.3.5 rooted ?
Rooted. Had to instal ClockWorksMod.
Please Click me to go to my latest post . i need serious help now .. im scared i really screwed up .. :'(

I cant boot the phone at all .. do you know if there is a fastboot option on the device ??? that would be awesome .
I am unfamiliar with your phone nor which
custom recovery you installed.
See this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22278362&postcount=212
for way to get the latest firmware specific to your phone.
If you don't mind losing the data on the phone,
you can try a factory reset.

There is no custom recovery , thats the whole problem . If there were a custom recovery i could easily toggle signature verification and boom it would flash . But thanks for the links i'll check them out ! Oh and a factory reset will not work because the file i edited is in system partition NOT data partition .
Have you tried ADB?
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
adb devices
adb remount
adb push <local filename> <remote filename>

Lol a day late and a dollar short i literally just did the exact same thing last night . however , adb remount fails .. i did adb shell and then su and it wont let me get superuser rights even though the device was rooted . so i just did adb push and pushed the original framework-res.apk to the device and now instead of staying at the splash screen im in an ifinite boot loop at the boot animation .
is there any way i can boot the device into fastboot mode so i can flash a custom ROM i found ? i tried adb reboot-bootloader and it just reboots regularly . Im at a loss of things to do other than contact straight talk and cross my fingers .
Oh also is there a way i can backup the data partition on the device ? That way if i have to get a new phone i wont lose anything ? Like can i make a .img from my data partition ?

So if adb works, you should try rerooting via lge_adb.conf trick and superoneclick

Fastboot on the P500 is Home Key + Power. YMMV.

from the shell you should be able to use dd command to backup the partitions.
do a cat /proc/mounts to find out the block devices names.

Wasn't saying it would definitely work with the lg55c but your original rooting appeared to put your phone in a strange state.
adb push should not have worked if you weren't able to remount /system as rw.

There are 3 other key combos you could try.
Menu + Power.

Search + Power.

Your sdcard should have automounted at /mnt/sdcard if you turned off usb storage.

Go into the Storage settings. Make sure that it is not set to Mass storage only.
I don't know what else to suggest anymore.

Read about and used this trick to bypass Google setup when rooting the HTC Dream.
It brings up the Settings menu to allow you to turn on wifi.
But you could try it to check on the other settings.
adb usb
adb devices
adb shell
am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.Settings
Ok. This is THE final suggestion.
Hi guys,
I run a small phone / computer repair shop. I have never needed to post before as I always got the info i needed.
I have a generic (unbranded) tablet here. The user has used too many pattern attempts. I do a lot of these where I just wipe the device for people.
Sometimes I use key combos and sometimes i use ADB to boot into recovery and then simply select the "wipe data / factory reset option"
However, this tablet has no keys , no volume keys that is, so i used ADB to boot it into recovery which it did just fine.
BUT!
how can i select "wipe data" when i can't use volume keys to select it? the touch screen is unresponsive in this mode too
I have tried
ADB SHELL WIPE DATA
but i get a permission denied error
I have tried running
ADB ROOT
but i get a "cannot run as root in production build" error
I have tried to root the tablet with super one click by short fuse but it crashes.
so i am basically asking is it at all possible to do a wipe data / factory reset on a device which is not rooted through ADB?
thanks
hello sir
I have the same problem. with WB7-l tablet does not have the key combination.
I tried with these commands, if I can reset the tablet by ADB. but I can not mount the SD.

adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot reboot
adb backup -apk -shared -all -f backup.ab
adb shell

Hi guys,
I don't know what piece of info is relevant or not, so I will outline as much as I can.
I was running the latest stable Slimbean with stock kernel, a couple of weeks ago my external sdcard stopped being recognized and would not mount. In Clockworkmod it would show an error mounting what I later learned were 3 different partitions.
Yesterday I installed freegee to try and restore my original partitions, but it would give me an error that my device was not supported. So I uninstalled freegee. The next time I rebooted my phone, it would get stuck on a black screen after the LG logo. I was able to get into recovery and download mode, so I tried the original teenybin with lgpnst and I could not get into recovery, only the LG logo. I then tried the alternate teenybin that boots up with the Google logo and I was able to get into TWRP.
I then sideloaded Houston's aosp KitKat and was able to successfully boot up the phone. I now have no system sounds, no music or media sounds, through the speaker or the headphone jack. Phone audio works through earpiece, speaker and headphones.
Tried wiping and reflashing. I don't know what else to do.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I also noticed that sensors were not working.
I flashed the W84C27MO84.zip hybrid modem.
This solved the problem with sounds and audio not working and fixed the sensors.
Post your partition table here!!!
Enter in CWM Recovery, connect your phone to computer, open terminal in administrator mode. open adb shell and run this command.
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
press P and put your result partition screenshot here.

Im so sorry my steps was with Special CWM.
Try this 3 steps on ADB shell.
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p17.bak
mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p17
reboot
good luck!!

What exactly will this do?

How much free space is required? I have almost 2gigs free
you need to do separate steps. One line is one command. Enter every one line.
And Dont copy paste i see another extra simbols

I tried doing it again, one line at a time, but still got the same message after the second line.
Try add -F to the second line like this:

As far as I know nobody has talked about it on here except you.
Depending on what kernel patches or android security fixes it has you might be able to try some root programs. There certainly will not be a clockworkmod or TWRP for it yet.
If none of the root methods work it might be possible to use the Dreamtab TWRP.(http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-nabi-dreamtab-hd8-t2813917) If it's like the previous Nabi tablets the bootloader will be unlocked, and you could try booting from that TWRP. The screen and the landscape/portrait might be messed up but it could work. In the last software update to the dreamtab they locked the bootloader so the BIG TAB might be as well. It could be unlocked by
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
^^^ This will ERASE all the data on the tablet.
If you want to try the TWRP way let me know but of course there are dangers involved.
If you try it alone be aware that if you try the dreamtab TWRP load it by
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
and NOT
Code:
[STRIKE]fastboot flash recovery recovery.img[/STRIKE]
or you will overwrite your current stock recovery.

i plan to buy one in the next few weeks. mainly need it so i can have two sheets of music in front of me. if there is another tablet that can do that, let me know.
aic, I got one for the kids for Xmas. The Nabi2's have been good but wont last forever, I liked the multi user option and big ass screen on the big tab. Well see how it works out! Once they open and spend time with it I'll be interested in rooting for adaway and such.

I have no idea about the BigTab but if it's like the DreamTab it will update when you boot it up. It's hard to get around it. If it does it will likely patch a lot of the more recent exploits that can gain you root. There is the option to try the dream tab recovery like I said above but be really careful with that.
Also one of the Dreamtab updates locked the bootloader. This isn't a big deal as it was unlockable via fastboot. However, if you let the kiddoz, or you start installing a whole bunch of stuff, when you unlock the bootloader you will wipe the tablet back to factory(normal behavior). Best to unlock it as soon as possible.
I own the big tab 20" was able to root using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2473747
I did have to unlock the bootloader and tried booting the dream tab recovery from fastboot no dice there so wasn't gonna risk flashing it.
The process took about 20 mins maybe less fully automated it froze at some point so I reset the big tab and tried again at which point kingo program told me I was already rooted download SU was able to update the binary's normal method and been good to go since. Word of warning it does preform a factory reset when you unlock the bootloader so be prepared for that.
I have been working on compiling CWM for the Nabi big tab 20" I'm close but I can't seem to figure out the path for the sdcard currently the recovery boots but can't back anything up with out the correct path entered into the recovery.fstab. This particular tablet does not have a real sdcard nor does it have a slot for an external one. Any help on this would be appreciated when I get it sorted out will add a link for the recovery.
this is what I currently have in my recovery.fstab.

You could download and try a rooting apk like towelroot framaroot or z4root if it has a low android firmware like 2.3.6 or something but only for z4root
I already got it rooted using Kingo root, these tablets are new on the market running kitkat 4.4.4, the end goal I am trying to achieve is making a custom rom but a neassacery first step is to get a working custom recovery so I can backup my stock rom just in case I blow up my tablet =)

Did you get that from pulling the stock recovery and extracting the recovery.fstab from the ramdisk?
The internal is likely on /data/media, or data/media/0 if it's like all the other Nabi's. Pretty sure /dev/block/sda1 to mount sdcard is not going to work. I'm not as knowledgeable at CWM as I enjoy TWRP so I'm not sure if there is a boardconfig.mk change you can do or if you need to symlink it in an init.rc file.

There was something else there originaly but it didn't work either so I ended up using the following from cat /proc/mounts:
/dev/fuse/mnt/shell/emulated /sdcard fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,realtime,user_id=1023,group_id=1023,default_permisions,allow_other nonremovable
Using the above line in the recovery.fstab allowed cwm to see the sdcard but was still unable to mount it. I have been playing around with different things but I am fairly new to this so my knowledge is limited.

I'm not really sure without seeing any of your code(device tree), finished recovery or any of the stock recovery.
I haven't made CWM in so long. Something like?
/dev/null /sdcard datamedia defaults recoveryonly
dd the mmcblock0pX for the recovery and boot and we can make something work. How much space is the recovery partition?

It compiled successfully and I was able to flash it, the sdcard showed up in the mount menu but was not mountable still.

Okay so my latest build using:
/dev/block/sda1 sdcard fuse defaults nonremovable
Allowed backup to the sdcard of everything with the exception of /data got "Error while making a backup image of /data!"
Also still unable to mount sdcard under the mounts and storage menu.
I believe the reason for the error while backing up data was due to available space when I restarted the tablet there was only 99.59MB available and I think the data would have needed more space then that.
I kept running into problems with CWM recovery but with the help of aicjofs I was able to compile a working TWRP with usb drive support, I don't yet have enough post to make an outside link so if some one can pm me I can give the link to be posted here with the recovery I made.

I own the big tab 20" was able to root using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2473747
I did have to unlock the bootloader and tried booting the dream tab recovery from fastboot no dice there so wasn't gonna risk flashing it.
The process took about 20 mins maybe less fully automated it froze at some point so I reset the big tab and tried again at which point kingo program told me I was already rooted download SU was able to update the binary's normal method and been good to go since. Word of warning it does preform a factory reset when you unlock the bootloader so be prepared for that.

I've ben trying to root my Big Tab 24". You said you had to unlock the bootloader. I can't get it into bootlad mode or unlock the bootloader. I tried fastboot. I tried every button combination I could think of. (not too many considering it only has three physical buttons) I tried rooting it with Kingo without unlocking the bootloader. Nothing is working. Please help. What am I doing wrong or not doing right?
Fastboot is the boot loader make sure you have USB debugging enabled and connect the tab to a PC you can then use the command "adb reboot-bootloader" the command to unlock is "fastboot OEM unlock"
