Hi,
I am using a chinese version of Sony tablet S rooted by condi's tool [AiO]..
Android version: 4.0.3
Kernel version: 2.6.39.4 build9 #1

Now, I would like to update the tablet to release 5, can I do that using System Update(official)? is it going to work !?
explain what I am going to face if I update it officially while rooted ..

Can I do : Unroot using AiO tool, then update it using the officail update, then root it using bin4ary tool ?

No release 5 for China yet, will have to change to US region first. Please see my FAQ (in signature) and search in the future.

If your tablet region is US, you can use system update to install release 5.
You will lose root, but you can re-root easily with Bin4Ryan tool.

Yes, I changed my tablet region from chine to US .. So, it is safe to update ?
flash rom never be 100% safe,but safe is most
you need root again after update to new version
aio can't root 4.x,you need bin4ry

Sorry did not see Region:US at the bottom of your post. Now that you are US region, Chinese is irrelevant. Hence why I was confused.
You can install any US firmware now.

Phone: S5830BVKT3
Hidswver: S5830BVKT3/S5830AMNKT1/S5830BVKT3/S5830BVKT3
Newest firmware update this year for Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S830 hits over Orange Spain packed in Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread. The latest firmware build number is S5830BVKT3 with a build date of 2012, February 09. This is an upgrade from previous version S5830BVKQ9 2.3.4 which was lastly released in 2011 October.
I installed this just for fun (i'm no Orange user) and it's a good firmware. Also sports the Orange Launcher. Biggest issue, can't seem to be able to root. upd_1.zip file fails to flash, log says my phone doesn't go under any of the product names known. Also OneClick failed to root with every method known. this makes kernel installation a pain in the .
will try
----------
just tried. Root works with upd_1.zip

Hi guys,
I live in the UK so no ICS for me at this time. My device is not un rooted and running the latest firmware update prior to ICS. What's the easiest way for me to beat the system and upgrade early? :-D
Can I root on this firmware?
I'm from UK and I'm waiting for ics as there are some bricks using the USA one

Look At condi AiO Tool,
And for you, you need "root access" first also with Condi's tool
And then you got an other problem, if you do not af any Adb stuff installed jet.
So easy installation for someone that doesn't have anything on his pc jet. Nope then there isn't a quick installation.

Just download 2.7 AiO and switch USB Debugging on ( On your tab ) and press 1 with condi's tool
then you will have root then follow the ICS Quide make shure that you have MTB drive installed properly!
Edit>> You will find a Quick ICS quide on top of Condi's AiO 2.7 topic in blue text.

To change the region also u need to root ur tablet but since you r on kernel 10. I guess its unrootable for now

Update:
This fastboot image contains an upgraded "Secure Version".
Secure Version is 3, same like any other ICS leaks. Which mean you can't downgrade back to GB.

There is no method to root it. Only if you upgrading from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 by OTA Root Keeper. This is SBF so if you flash it you'll lose ROOT.

Could you please upload it to mediafire or dropbox? That 115.com download speed is killin' me!
I'm just a consumer, I usually don't upload things.
Why would you want to install this?
Do you have a chinese version xt910? If no, better don't mess with it.
In fact I have LATAM RAZR but my current ROM is previous Chinese ICS leak which version is 6.7.2_GC-120-175; I've flashed it with mmcblk replacement - and that's why I'm asking someone to share. I know what I gonna mess with. Moreover, there would be guys who will try it sooner or later for sure, so the earlier we share it the faster we get some feedback.
宜しくお願い致します。

Again, this fastboot upgrade your cdt main secure version to 3.
Previous chinese leak was 2. That's why you can revert back to GB.
While i'm not an expert, i guess it will be hard to go back to LATAM after flashing this.
You know your phone better..
Well this is interesting
I'll keep my eyes on this thread

What I know works is fastbooting a 4.0.3 boot.img, booting into BP Tools from the boot menu, rooting there, then fastbooting back to 4.0.4 boot.img. There isn't a 4.0.4 root method at this time other than this. So find a 4.0.3 FB file and use that boot.img.
Isn't that's how older leak rooting method works?

Unfortunately, there's no macthing 403 kernel with secure version 3 & cid 4 / 7.
You guys that have xt912 just lucky, because you have a 403 kernel leak (secure version 3 cid 2 too be specific).
2whirleyes: Again, no need to tell me that. Let me suppose you think I don't know about problems with downgrading? You're wrong if you think so. OK keep it but don't "warn" me once again, please.
Am I the only one who wouldn't go back to so-called "stable" GB after flashing ICS leak? Previous Chenese leak I currently running on my device is MUCH BETTER than any GB I've ever had. And after all, 2.3.6 upgrades for LATAM RAZRs were rolled out about a month ago - after all other regions. Who wants to wait till August - rise you hand up high, please.

Hi all! I recently got a Sony Tablet S on stock honey comb 3.2.
I installed all drivers and tried rooting it using some tools provided on this forums including the latest AiO tool but it gives me an error message.
Says it cannot be rooted because of the kernel and something about being "locked down".
I read that devices upgraded to R5 can't be rooted but I don't know if that's my case as I bought it from someone and don't know if they upgraded it to R5 or which android firmware it's on R5. Mine it's on android 3.2
Can someone point me in the right direction?
-Thanks in advance.

3.2 is old skewl. R5 is ICS. I suggest you read my faq and look at post #2. You will need to flash the 3.2.1R2 to root. Hopefully you have the US tab as there is not many 3.2.1 files around.
Do not accept any OTA updates.
Is it kernel 10?

Not the issue he is talking about 3.2 NOT 3.2.1.
3.2 is not rootable where is 3.2.1r2 < kernel 10 is ROOTABLE
Or he could ICS, R1 or even R5, NOT R5a though

Below is a link to where I detailed my steps in rooting/updating a Sony Tablet S from stock 3.2 to 3.2.1r2, which I rooted and used to install pre-rooted 4.0.3r1a. The 3.2.1r2 and 4.0.3r1a files I used are both US WiFi Only. 4.0.3r1a is no longer available online but I can upload it to 4share for you to download if you want. You do not really need to install 4.0.3r1a. A better solution is after you have rooted 3.2.1r2 installed, use it along with Condi's ALLinONE tool to install his pre-rooted doubleFLASH 4.0.3r5a with r1a's system recovery utility; link added below. I hope you find this information helpful.

Thanks man! I flashed ICS 120410 for easy root because I'm planning to upgrade to R5A with root. But on ICS 120410 everything was working fine until after root.. now the PlayStore icon shows but it says "App not installed". And the app list just shows the official ones from Sony :/ I also tried to upgrade to R5A through AiO to see if this would fix it but when I chose option 3 it came out a red screen and said "build.incremental value to high, reapply 'rescue-backdoor'" I copied the R5A to the SD and that's what it said.
UPDATE: Did some digging with the AiO tool. Trying to install the mooded google play store app from the options. Let's see how it goes
UPDATE 2: Didn't worked :/
Factory reset then root again?? It sometimes does that

I recommend you wait until Condi posts a new version of his S.onyTablet.S [FLASHER] tool, which is expected to happen soon. Condi recently said the new version will contain several fixes and additional firmware versions.

I am on rooted Android 5.1.1 Sony xperia z2 d6503, now I got ota marashmellow 6.0 update file of 974mb,.if I update it, can my root exit on marashmellow or not. If not then how can I root 6.0.
You will loose root and there is no way to root it on 6.0 (unless you unlock bootloader)... So best way is flash pre-rooted version from your existing 5.1.1...
You can't update while you have root and/or recovery, however you can download the update but once it's done the update will fail because you have modified system.
You can flash a pre-rooted firmware via recovery to get the latest software update and maintain root access and recovery.
Until now there is no expoilt to root directly.
I got the same thing just this morning.
I was wondering about the same issue.
This ota is not the beta version released earlier i presume?
And is there a prerooted rom of this exact ota from Sony?.
I have seen a lot of good works on MM for Z2 but for sm reason i opted to wait fo the official sony version.

Actually there is.
Before the the update roll over OTA it's released via Xperifirm one week before.
By the way, you can even make your own pre-rooted firmware by yourself via PRFcreator!
