So you can't click restore??? Do you have a desktop backup password set?? Setting > Developement
If you do you may need to put that password in.

Has someone said, the only thing that the batch file did is erased the Play Store from there Sony Tablet S, i wouldn't really risk it since your not rooted at all
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda premium
works beautifully guys! can't swear you'll have no problems, because some ppl has, but for me and others worked perfect
OMG !!!
wow, actually i was a bit pessimistic with this,
i am using SONY TABLET S with the non-rootable ICS 4.0.4 Rom
at first, this method was doing nothing,
it even has deleted all of my APPS ! i can still see their files in the SD folder, but the icons just didnt showed up in the apps main menu, but all of my shortcut of the icons in the home menu still intact, but if i touch it, it says "app ist not installed" ...
i dont know what actually happens
this method offer the RESTORE-funktion too, but i have tried to restore, maybe 10 times but always no results, all the apps is always nowhere to be found in the apps menu ...
i was quite desperate, i almost wanna to try to delete all of it back to factory settings
buttttt ..................... im not sure why i could have my tabs rooted now
, but after i updated my ADB with the one from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488822&highlight=root
and then i tried this method once more.
it was so strange, all of the adb commands says "permision denied" but a Terminal was ACTUALLY showing up after the restart, so i typed all 2 adb commands that was instructed,
but still, it said "blabla ... not permitted"
and it restarted once more, and....... VOILA !!
i now have all of my missing apps coming back and also a SUPERUSER apps !!
and after trying to install some of root-needed apps (the modded google-play apps from the ALLinONE 4.1) and it succeeded now im quite sure, my tablet was rooted !!
:victory:
but i was still confused of what really happened ...
but i dont care as long i have got all of my installed apps back and plus a rooted sony tablet
sorry for bad english,
it is maybe my first post after so long time

Android 4.0.4? o.o
Why don't you post this in the forum where the rooting tool is?, This is really useful
Sent from my LG GT540 Zoé ROM CM9
I'm not getting any joy using it.Tried it a few days ago and all it did was wipe most of my data.Did a factory reset.Tried again today with the latest software but if I run the bat I just get "Tablet S mode enabled ".Run the bat as admin and all i get is "the system cannot find the path specified ".Tells me to restore data on my tablet but there's nothing showing.Anyone got any idea where I'm going wrong ?
Vinny
Repeat the precedure, remember that u must have well installed adb drivers on ur pc, on the tablet side u must have a terminal emulator an writte a couple of lines at some point of the procedure. The bin4ry method worked very good on my tab.
Good luck

i installed the new update(fresh install) and root,xrecovery are working properly. then i installed app2sd(i have ext2 partition) i got installed but still apps are getiing installed in internal memory only. Titanium backup shows the sd ext2 partition but its not working. there is system/sd/apps folder but no apps in there. only few apps in appback folder which were installed before enabling app2sd.
does anybody have any solution?
Could this be the reason to why my phone now is nearly dead. I had app2sd installed before i made the update a couple of hours ago. I havent started up since then, it is in a loop with the first screen Sony Ericsson, then the color splash and then the logo together with the text Sony Ericsson... over and over. I have tried to soft reset, have tried to connect to SEUS but nothing seems to work.

I have now made the flashing and everything seemed to turn out fine. Flashtool behaved just as in tutorial.
I unplug and power on and what happens?
Same loop as before the flashing... like this:
Start up with Sony Ericsson, then color splash and finally the logo screen, and then it goes on same way over and over...
BUT
15 minutes later i tried to flash once more, this time i did NOT add the dualtouch in the bundle and this time it worked out fine!! Now only the hard work to get the phone like it was before this happened...
Once again, thank you ^Shader^

I couldn't agree more with hansip87.. it will mean you lose the apps that are already installed on your SD card but its a better over all solution..

My advice is to keep trying.. if SEUS aint working then Flashtool is your best chance.. it might take a few tries.. double check the .sin files are in the right place (Firmware file in flashtool) make sure you have the right firmware for your device and keep trying..
also.. if its a mini Pro then take the battery out for a few seconds.. if its a mini then press the power and center button at the same time for a reset.. try and try again!!
I guess keep trying is my main point.. you will get it eventually (then reformat your apps2SD partition and use Link2SD instead
Kiwi
edit....
(if your still having problems with flashtool after multiple attempts pm me and I can send you the original (non GUI) version of flashtool when I get home from work, perhaps it might work better) I have never had a problem with the old version, just copy the .sin files to the firmware folder open the flashtool app and follow the instructions (making sure you select wipe USER data when prompted)

Yes, i got very confused when it didn't work when i added dual touch, but no problems as i sorted it out and made a new try without it.
Now my mini works better than ever. But it took a lot of sweat before i got it back to the way i want it.
i have the updated my mini pro to the latest build and installed app2sd / dc2sd .. seems to work without any problem.
Is this update newer than 2.0.2.A.0.24 ?
And what's new in 2.1.1.A.0.6 update?
Any improvement?
@ donetus, Are you using the existing rooting method or some patching is required to do the rooting after the new update?
App2sd Whit Ext3 Works Fine on my X10 Mini whit .06 Compilation
I must admit, I am a complete noob when it comes both to linux, android and smartphones. I know a great deal about computers, but only recently bought the X10 mini pro, since it wasn't that expensive and I wanted a qwerty-keyboard.
Anyway, the reason I have decided to install a custom rom is mainly the fact that SE have confirmed that they will not give X10 mini/mini pro Froyo, so therefore I now understand I have to start using custom roms.
The current wishes I have for installing a custom 2.1 rom is the following:
-Apps2SD
-Multitouch
-Change themes
I have currently decided to go for the iridium rom. Is that a good decition? I've read lots about "JiT" but I don't exactly know what it is. For example, can I install JIT, then install a custom rom (such as iridium) and JIT will still be "installed" and working?
Many of the tutorials here are great, in the way that it makes noobs like me able to actually install custom roms, however, the tutorials are alot like:
STEP 1) Pick a ftl/i20x model and install with flash tool.
STEP 2) Use one of the following builds: 2.1.A.x353.3531.43 (I'm like... WTF IS FTL?! WHAT BUILD SHOULD I CHOOSE?? WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?!?!? :/) lol,

Hope I helped, if so, press that Thanks button!! ;D
i would say try till you find one you like. just because you like the looks of the iridium rom you should try them all before you make your descion. also experiment a bit since that does not hurt to try.
Well whats holding me back is the simple fact I can't get xrecovery working. I made another post for that tho, anyone of you want to try and assisst me?

When R U starting to press back?
I start right after I feel the vibration (a little b4 the sony ericsson logo appears)
And remember that it is the first logo that they're talking about! The one woth only text! ;D

If I helped, click that thanks button!!! ;D
Trust me.. When I say I have tried for hours getting xrecovery to work, that includes rebooting 20-30 times, each time pressing the back-button from vibration and probably like 3 times per second, until phone is fully booted. No results. Is there no other way to check if xrecovery actually IS installed?
Ok, I've seen some problems with the placing of the three files...
Where have U placed dem?
You need to COPY them from sdcard til SYSTEM, Then MOVE to system/bin.
That step is very important to make it work.. if you've just copied them from sdcard til system/bin , that could be the problem.. ?

Thanks alot!
But now the strangest thing happened... after my phone crashed and I repaired it, I log into market with my google account, and all applications (such as "Root Explorer") that I've paid for in the past, won't get downloaded. It just starts download but nothing happens, download freezes at: "downloading".
Any ideas what's causing this?
JiT is enabled as part of installing Iridium ROM.
Alright, I did a factory reset to fix the problem. With market. Followed indtructions precisely, three times now...xrecovery never starts up.
Anything else I need to configure? I notice that when i reboot, go /system/bin the xrecovery.tar file is gone.
EDIT: No it is still there, with the same permissions.
It doesn't seem like anyone else have any issues running xrecovery, so I don't get it!!
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
When I try to install xrecovery with the aapk-installer, the three icons just turn red. Judging from others who had this happen, it was due to an outdated busybox version.
Anyway, I ran Titanium Backup to update busybox, but that only got me 1.15. How can i get 1.18? It is not on the market

I dont think it is due to busy box version. i have busy box 1.15.3, and i have x recovery and custom rom CM 6.3.2.1 installed.
Are you moving the file and then copying them to them to the system folder? and is the root explorer in rw.
Thread which i followed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878426
peace.
I move files to /system/. Change permittion. Copy to /system/bin/. Reboot. Hammer back button, nothing.
The unified xrecovery-apk installer gives a clue I think, cause the install fails. I just wantt to find out why. I am rooted. I do mount r/w..
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
You need to copy them THEN move them, from your post above you are moving them then copying. Its important to do it the right way round.
Now I copied them to /system/. Change permittions. MOVE them to /system/bin/. Still no luck.
I am confused about all the talk about Busybox version, instructions about "DO NOT UPDATE BUSYBOX ONCE YOU'VE INSTALLED XRECOVERY!!" etc. but if I had done that wrong, xrecovery should just cause the phone to freeze at the SE-logo, right?
Atm, nothing at all happens at the SE-logo.
I think I'm going to use SEUS to wipe it all clean again, then just root it with superoneclick from PC, download Root Explorer, and try this again. My build atm is: 2.1.1.A.0.6 btw.
Thank you all so much for the help! I got it working now Had to go back to factory settings, then just root with superoneclick (NOT try to install xrecovery) then I installed xrecovery manually, after installing busybox through Titanium Backup.
Haha, now the only issue is that I can't find the flashtool from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825664 I made afew posts here and there asking if someone could re-upload or post a mirror two days ago, but no replies. Does anyone have the GUI-version of flashtool?
EDIT: Nevermind. An angel uploaded a mirror of that too! =) Thanks everyone, now I will try my luck with the iridum rom!

i didn't try but doubt that it will work due to the lack of mobile phone number which whatsapp needs to run.

If you are able to copy the app configuration from /data/data/whatsapp from your phone to your tablet it should be working. I am waiting of my Sony tablet and will try it by myself ... but theoretically it should work if we have the rights to copy files to this folder.
from where to copy?
whatsapp folder is created at /sdcard/.. level in phone!!
sent via awesome aRc (rooted 2.3.4)
as I wrote before ... /data/data/com.whatsapp
on /sdcard you will find only transfered media files ...
the app is installed on /data/app and the conf. data on /data/data/
this is valid for all non-system apps ...
try a file manager like "root explorer" or "file expert" but I don't if it will work without root access rights ... please try and report ...
-- Edit --
please take a look at this post ... that could be the solution for us ..

I remember .. but root is not a "must have" for Titanium Backup. I still waiting for my Sony tablet (will receive it tomorrow) but from my understanding the normal /data/app and /data/data folder are r/w enabled and you need no root to put something into ... otherwise every app would need root access to install ... could you try it with Titanium backup as described in the linked post please and report ? Thanks in advance.

Let me knoe if u could do. I have installed VIBER.
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda premium
I grabbed WhatsApp from my SonyEricsson Xperia Arc S (swedish) with TitaniumBackup Pro and copied it over to my Sony Tablet S.
TitaniumBackup Pro does not work well on this tablet. I did not get the three menu-buttons you have on top on smartphones. So I could not choose backup/restore.
So I decided to try another route. I took the backuped files from Titanium in my smartphone and moved them to my tablet (the apk-file) and installed it with astero. It went well. I started up the app, and it said it didn't recognized my device. So I copied the data-files from /data/data to the tablet. It did not help.
So I did not managed to get WhatsApp to work on my tablet. Other than get to the startup where I have to press "approve" then it told me it's a no go.
I even tried to reboot the device, but it didn't help.
Hope this might answer some of your questions.

Hey
Hello sachin, I have a similar problem. I would recommend you please do not install non-hcl market apps in the tablet. I am just back from the service center. Deposited the tablet today. The internal memory has a write problem & no matter how much i tried, the settings & the non-market apps i installed are not removing/changing. The tablet is good but i am responsible for screwing it up. Have patience & let the developers release a custom rom or mod for the U1.

It was the 4th day after the purchase. i installed everything i could in it through apk files. I once connected a 3g tata docomo stick in it & bamm!! It was blank! I read the manual & pressed the reset switch with a pin & it worked. The tab booted up & to my surprise no matter how much i tried i could not uninstall any of the applications, change any of the settings. As if it got write protected. Whenever i rebooted the tab it came back in the same state, read-only. The service center people are saying it maybe replaced. What do you think i should do? Does this have to do something with the root? I tried to install the 4 apk file google play setup (one by one install). I even connected it to the pc & formatted the inbuilt memory but it all came back astonishingly!

It was the 4th day after the purchase. i installed everything i could in it through apk files. I once connected a 3g tata docomo stick in it & bamm!! It was blank! I read the manual & pressed the reset switch with a pin & it worked. The tab booted up & to my surprise no matter how much i tried i could not uninstall any of the applications, change any of the settings. As if it got write protected.

Hmm,
Have you tried to factory data reset?
Tried that a lot of times. no luck! Its a lemon now. Lets see if HCL replaces it. I know it could be my fault. Do you think installing the apps has done this? I think the 3g dongle has something to do with this? or maybe it was a defective piece. I am waiting for their call. Lets see what happens

Well i have 40+ apps downloaded but i have not faced this issue..
I have not tried dongle yet..
Hmm thats a sad situation.
Can you tell me what all you tried putting and removing since u bought this tab??
Like rooting. and apps and what kind of mods u tried does not matter they passed or failed.
Let me know .
Yes i was surprised it got screwed. things like these dont happen in androids. Anyways i am thinking it was a defective piece.
I installed the step by step four apk android market installer, another normal google play .apk file, all sorts of apps from apktops.com etc. It was working fine. It just got hanged once when i plugged in the stick & after resetting it from that position everything went wrong after that. as if the tab went into read-only mode. I could not change the settings or remove/install any apps. After every reboot it went back into that state. I think it has something to do with encrypt. Check you tab settings & tell me what do you think about encrypt??
The service center people are yet to call me. I hope they replace it.
Once it also gave me an error like "key chain not responding" or something. After that is got screwed.

It seems like that you encrypted your tab first and then during reset it might have changed the file settings to read only mode.
Dont worry its a software issue, they will fix it.
May be its a glitch with their software only. May be they have not done the proper testing before releasing the tab out in the market.
What i would suggest dont think its ur mistake tell them its their mistake.
Dont tell them you downloaded apps from different source.
Hopefully everything should be fine.
Can you tell me
1)Were you able to use google play market properly?
2)Did u face this issue that if you run some apps the screen goes upside down. I mean to say we have ME written at the top and when i run some apps the screen needs to be rotated 180 degrees to make it run properly.
I dont think the service center people have enough knowledge about the new tablet. I had a talk with their technician & he said it might be replaced. I was expecting it as its a new launch & its ICS. actually i saved a few apk files on the internal memory & as you know no matter how much i tired i cannot delete them. So that is worrying me as they will find out & confront me for the same.
Google play did worked but whenever i tried to install any app from it, it crashed & then didnt run again (until reinstall) & i got the error message "stopped unexpectedly" or something. I guess it needed root access because the tab was not permitting any non-hcl market apps to run on it.
And for your 2nd question, maybe that did happen but i didnt realize it because i used the tab just for 3 days & its hard to recall what i did.

Thanks! It means google play never worked. Actually in order to make it work it needs to be installed using the rom installation and some files needs to be changed as well to make it work.
As far as hcl support is concerned , all i can say they are horrible , i spoke to a tech support guy and he said i can install any app using google he wanted to say if the app is not there in the market i can download it from google with the extension apk and i can use it . he also confirmed it would not void the warranty .
I asked him for pc software and guess what he said. Sir you find the software on google. Then i told him to share the link then he gave some sendspace link which was not working. As i am working and i dont have access to the tablet right now. They were insisting on the serial number of the tablet which i was not carrying while i was calling them up.
Dont worry about your tab , it willl be fine.
I am looking for someone who can help me in rooting this device. it seems like this tab is not rooted yet. I have an app root check it says device is rooted but when i go to cache folder its all empty and when i try to go there using shell it says access denied.
ANY developer here who is willing to help us???
I can give Team viewer access along with tab connected and a a coffee or beer anything the developer likes.

I`m also having same kind of problems. Can`t run google play on it. I have tried to root with z4root, and with some other tools. But nothing worked. plz help.

HELP
Hey guys, hate starting new threads, but this time I just had to. Here's the deal:
First I had a Galaxy Ace. I rooted it, and used root normally for a couple of months. Then something went bazzerk (don't know how to spell bazzerk xD), just as it is on my new Xperia neo. My root explorer works flawlessly and I'm able to mount my system r\o / r\w when ever I want and explore all sys files. BUT, my ROM toolbox, GO backup, etc. all apps that actualy "touch" system files (I mean change or retrieve the above), freeze when a command is given. I.e. I want to move an unmovable app to the sd card. The file IS moved, but the app freezes on "loading". GO backup: I restore a file, it's completely restored, but the app frezzes on 99% even though the job's done. Why is this happening, and is there a way to fix it?
Thank you all, and cheers
P.S. This problem sometimes just vanshies, but it's back a few days later.
P.P.S. I tried restarting, taking the battery out, restarting SU, and restarting the freezing apps, nothing erases the problem.
Have to you tried to factory reset in your phones settings?
If you´re rooted check the superuser app and loock at the log
what does superuser state?

Install root checker from market Nd check whether u r rooted correctly or not
Are you using superuser or supersu app?

No, I think that would fix it but then I'd have to set back everything on my phone, which I don't want

Superuser says everything's fine. I already mentioned I can see all my root files with no problem. But when another app tries the same, it freezes.

Installed, checked. Says it's rooted. I'm using Superuser and it's reporting no problems. Still freezes when an app changes something.
The thing is root works, I mean I can backup\restore app data, freeze apps, etc. but after the phone does this, the app freezes, even though it's done. A very strange problem. Is there anything I could have accidently made to brake it (exept disallowing an app from Superuser rights, I checked that three times; allways allowed) ?
I remember that i faced such problems a few weeks ago...
some root file explorers denied me the acces to the root files while i tried to change a bootanimation
root acces was granted but it didnt worked
afterwards i tried another root file explorer and it worked fine
why ?
i dont know but something went wrong with the first file browser
Try SuperSU v0.95
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Thank you all, it so happened that this version of Superuser didn't quite well support these versions of apps. Just changed the ROM Toolbox to a newer version, and it works perfectly.
:good:
apparently not working after root
noob here, I did my first root today, and have only been an android user for 2 weeks after defecting from apple since the first iphone. I was a jailbreak veteran of idevices, but I got bored with the stale bread, so I spent my taxmas on a Samsung galaxy s4. Specifically wanting the i9500 version so it would be unlocked to use on net10. I followed the steps from website, and video on Odin. And it looked like it worked perfectly. It wasn't until I tried to my photo gallery app to look at some pictures, and it crashed and wouldn't load. I had the same issue with a business calendar issue app that wouldn't open. I tried clearing system cache on gallery app but no luck. I'm afraid I'm in over my own head now, and might want to restore and start from scratch. The first thing I did after rooting was a full Titanium backup. only things that I installed after root was xposed installer and an app within the installer called swipeback.
I would like to know if there is a fix for this, without having to break away from root? Or if I must,how do I know which stock file I need. I know it's i9500ubueMk1 but there's many different regions.. I bought from a best buy in Charlotte . If there isn't a simple fix to fix why my apps aren't working,then the root does more harm than good, and I wanna go back to normal.
Someone please walk me through this!!
thanks

I had the same problem. Theres nothing wrong with your phone, its the app. Instead of root explorer, download root browser. It works better
