T-Mobile springboard unable to root( read only file system) - Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard

I can't seem to get any rooting programs to work they all say that nothing can copy read only file system and I can't even get the # from su on adb . When my computer recognizes my springboard as a CD drive. All the drivers are installed and debugging is checked...unknown sources are checked. I've tried with MTP on and off. I've tried to flash clockwork recovery in fast boot mode and still nothing...if someone has experienced this please help if possible. Thanks in advance

Fastboot not Working for Nook

I have looked but I cannot find anything on how to get fastboot for Nook Tablet working (and yes I do have CM9 0.05.1) and I want to flash recovery but it is not recognizing my Nook. All it has on device manager is Other Devices/ Acclaim with an exclamation point. Please help
Hi, have you installed adb succesfully in your pc previously?
If yes then the next thing you need is fastboot.exe file, if not then start with that first then fastboot.
You can find what you need here, also if you search in my threads (link in my signature) you can find a tutorial about how to install and use ADB.
~ Veronica
Acclaim
I have the same challenge. I have ADB working successfully (and have used Veronica's guide to repartition my NT - thanks again). Yet when I use Cyanoboot and start Fastboot my device shows up in Other Devices as Acclaim and none of the USB drivers I have pointed to get installed. It isn't mission critical that I solve this but it would be nice from a knowledge base to understand what I am missing in case I ever need to use Fastboot. It seems to be a much easier tool to change the installed Recovery image than ADB. Any help would be appreciated.
adb works for me. i currently have cyanoboot, when i try to go to start fastboot to install a new recovery, i notice in my device manager there is an uninstalled driver called "Acclaim". Already tried the NT drivers for it and it didn't work. Any ideas? I recently flashed succulent's cm7 image which had a cwm v5.0.x and i want to flash cwm v 5.5.x. Already tried using indirect's NT recovery flasher and no go on that...

Can someone upload fastboot mode driver for NT for me? I turn my NT into bootloader but my PC can't "see" NT so I can't fastboot recovery.img.
Thanks.
Sorry for my bad English.

when doing fastboot do you see "acclaim" under other devices in device manager? I had to install another set of drivers in order for fastboot to work.

I don't have windows so I won't comment on that. There is one thing that I never see mentioned when talking of adb access problems.
On custom roms (your case cm9 0.05.1) in settings, developer options, Android debugging should be checked to allow adb access. If not checked that may be your issue.
If I'm having adb issues and it was working previously I'll boot to cwm (5.5.0.4 version not 5.0.2 or whatever) and go from there.
You should get adb working properly, but to flash recovery you can use one of the flashable zip files while in cwm. They work for me!
Got a few minutes on a windows 7 pc (people should take their breaks at their desk). If you are using Veronicas thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22049356&postcount=1 you will find a file runmefirst.bat if you run it and follow instructions about unplugging and replugging nook it will create and setup the previously mentioned file. Do not run zergy as suggested. When it pulls device manager your exclamation should say nook. Right click it, update driver software, browse my computer, let me pick, and then choose the directory with your usbdrivers, tell it yes to use them. Do not worry about anything else from runmefirst.bat including anything else to run. You just want it to set the codes for your nt and then it is of on use.
I had adb working for my nt quickly on that windows 7 pc. It had no previous adb or usb drivers installed.
Good Luck
I got nook tablet drivers installed and it works for adb however fastboot still has acclaim!
anyone have steps how to fix this?
fastboot has no devices

like i said in a previous post, right click the acclaim item under other devices and look for the product id and edit the android_winusb.inf accordingly.
after that right click acclaim, update driver software, and browse for the drivers yourself. if all goes well fastboot should work. this is how i did it. not that i ever really use fastboot but its good to have just in case.
Is there any step-by-step tutorial on how to flash NT with fastboot? I have tried to search, but still could not get it work.
Thanks.

Why not flash your NT using SD-based CWM Recovery (e.g., see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37515697&postcount=31)?
The easiest way under windows, is just choose the driver on your own, use the driver from the Android SDK (sdk\extras\google), and you will be presented with a couple of options, choose Android Composite ADB Interface.

Your pictures should be on your SD and unaffected, but without root I'd say goodbye to your messages.

I think, without root, you can't view /data, but you can try.
If you can, the sms should be located in this .xml: er /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db
Then backup it via adb, reflash your rom and replace the file with the backuped one.
If you can't access /data, maybe you can root/flash cwm to your phone too, if it's bootloped? (Phone specific, so I don't know.)
Good luck.

Connect your phone to your computer, start adb shell and type in su and then cd data
If you can view the directory by typing in ls you should be able, to copy the .xml to your computer.

You have to open cmd.exe and navigate to the location, where the adb file is located.
Then type in ‘adb shell’.

when i type in adb shell, it says Error: device not found, while the phone was in the boot menu.
Is it maybe because im missing drivers? I googled a bit and now i have the driver i need, its .exe file , what should i do with this file? if i double click on it, i get an error message.

Yes, the drivers could be the problem or maybe (but I don't hope so) the phone isn't recognizable in this mode via adb.
If you're using Windows, go to the device manager and check, if there's a android thing with a exclamation, then refresh the driver of this, if it's possible. Simply via right click etc. (Of course, if the device is connected.)
And have you tried this here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15585507&postcount=2
btw: Your phone seems to don't boot up since a few days, do you don't need it? Another idea is, maybe you can backup all your files via fastboot/download mode or something else, but you'll have to post this question in the device specifically forum, because it's different on phones.
Okay, one more time good luck.

yes, in the device manager there is an android thing with a yellow exclamation. i clicked on refresh the driver and i get the window asking me where i want to get the driver from. since i have the driver in an Sd card, i´ll try that tomorrow.
well, i do need the phone, but now im using my old one. until i can finally fix this issue.
What did you mean with the Fastboot mode? when im in the boot menu, i can select Fastboot, but it wont help much, because it will just start the booting again (bootloop). but i dont know if this is what you meant with fastboot.
thanks

Okay, but you can also let Windows automaticly search the internet for the drivers.
About fastboot, I don't know if you can backup files with this. (Normally you can use this to flash boot.img etc.) And I don't know, how it works on your device, so ask in your device forum.

[Q] Upgrade to CM10.1...strange adb issue

I have this old Galaxy SGH-T959, which I'd like to get on CM10.1. I started out with a phone facory reset (it's on 2.2) and then followed the instructions on the CM site: First I pushed CWMR using Heimdall, which worked ok (I can get into CWM recvovery), but after that the phone seems to be soft-bricked (hangs after the splash screen when doing a regular rebooot). No big deal I thought, since I just need to get a ROM on there. I went through some troubles with installing USB drivers (eventually, I installed Kies and the drivers that came with it made it show up properly in the device manager). Now I just wanted to push my ROM zip via adb. So "adb devices" (after adb kill-server, adb start-server) shows the phone as 'T959xxxxx recovery'. So far so good. But now when I issue a push command (or any other adb command like shell or remount), there is just a blinking cursor and nothing else happens. Any idea wha's the problem?

try a pc they are a lot easier to work with with android.
If you are on a pc then try odin... I usually understood heimdall as a mac alternative to odin or just an alternative to odin, odin is made directly by samsung so its gotta be quality stuff. vibrants do have bad ports too, i have two of them and both wont connect to the computer anymore and one doesn't even charge so try putting the rom on an external microsd card and throwing it in it then flash that through recovery, but if you are going to jelly bean usually you install cm7 first then cm10.1... not sure what guide you are using, a link would be nice, maybe a problem could be found there. theres a thread about the whole cm7 read post 2 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43706442#post43706442 haha thats me i had a similar problem
Thanks for the reply.
I am on a PC. The guide I was working off is here: [apparently as a newbie I'm not allowed to post links]
I tried ODIN to push the ROM, but ODIN accepts only tar files etc. and not the CM zip files (at least I didn't find any CM tar's). I also tried putting the ROM on the external sd card, but that was non-starter as well. CWMR would not find the external SD and any attempt to mount it failed.
Find tar versions. I'm not sure how to convert it but if you can't find one just ask and I'm sure somebody with some spare time will put one together for ya

[Q] HTC One X+ ROM problems

Hello everyone,
I have been searching in vain for a while now to find a solution to my problem and I fear that I may have done something daft to my phone.
I am using a HTC One X+ that was unlocked, s-off and rooted for about a year, i had TWRP and stock android 4.1.1. For ages I have been getting an update alert saying a software update is ready and i think it was some Vodafone update (1.17.161.7). Whenever i accepted and tried to install this it would obviously reboot into TWRP and then the update would fail. This was fine until last night when I decided to install it through TWRP, it said it failed again and i rebooted to find that WiFi wouldnt turn on, my phone was no longer rooted or s-off and that I get no signal. I tried to re-root it but command prompt on the computer or HTC Sync wouldnt recognise my device however it was appearing as HTC One X+ in My Computer and i could access the internal storage.
I restarted into recovery and managed to flash a new root using twrp and the root file using the unlockr.com - how to root the htc one x
Then thinking it was a ROM issue i downloaded and installed InsertCoin Evolution ONE X+ 5.0-6 Sense 5 Android 4.2.2.
This all went through ok however when i reboot from this install it just sticks at the HTC Quietly Brilliant screen. I wiped everything using twrp beforehand.
When i restart into bootloader, it says unlocked, S-On and HBOOT -1.30.0000
Not sure what else to do as now i have no ROM, i read that you have to partition the SD card for InsertCoin to work but the option to partition SD card isnt there in my TWRP (ver. 2.3.3.0)
Any help to even reset my phone back to basic stock everything would be amazing, i have a Titanium Backup of most of my stuff saved btw.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

No I just copied the whole zip file to the SD card section and installed it from there - ive encountered a new problem now in the fact that my computer no longer can recognise the phone via USB - it still appears in device manager but cant access the sd card and the sd card got wiped by twrp so now i dont have any way of getting things onto the phone that i know of. It just says - failed to open usb master mode in the bootloader. How could i get the computer to recognise the phone again so i can transfer it back onto it and try installing insertcoin again? Really hoping i havent managed to make my phone useless as ive had to dig out the old Nokia 6230 from the drawer haha!
Thanks.
EDIT - Now seen the instruction to flash the boot.img - what a fool i am. Now i need to get it recognised by USB again so i can transfer the zip file to it and go again.

Without a rom installed you're not able to acces the internal memory of your phone directly. You have to use "adb sideload" command to transfer a rom onto your phone. Look in the General and/or Q&A forum of this device, there are enough guides or topics on how to solve this "problem".

Hi use this link..may be useful (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066390) by the way reaper90 is right you need to sideload the rom..
In TWRP:
1-wipe everything
2-goto advance in twrp
3-select sideload
4-navigate to the folder where you have adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll, adbwinusbapi.dll and fastboot.exe. and make sure to keep the rom and its image; bootimg there.
5-then in command prompt write (adb sideload *name of the rom*.zip) make sure the name is a letter.
6- also make sure to keep the screen alive and not let it goto sleep while adb sideload is working.
7- rom will start setup once sideload is 100%.
Hope this helps. Goodluck.

Hi, thanks very much for the responses - its much appreciated.
Nothing happens when i type that command, a load of text appears in cmd prompt showing all the adb commands and thats it, i have searched for this problem and found this on twrp website as a possible solution "You will need version 1.0.29 or higher. You can find your current version by typing "adb version" at the command line" My version says 1.0.26 I have tried to update this but cant seem to find a way to do it, would that be an issue?
I think once ive managed to sideload the zip i should be good to go its just getting to that point that seems to be stumping me at the moment.

Dont sweat it. They understood you wrong.
Guys what he wants to do is copy the file FROM the SDCARD TO the PC.
First you will need to know where the location of your rom then type in the following commands:
Code:
adb devices
If you device is not detected then try to run the CMD as an administrator and try again
then:
Code:
adb pull {location without the curly brackets}
For example if its on the SDCard then:
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/rom.zip
It will paste the file to the folder where the adb is found
Then just open the zip file and get out the boot.img and flash it using fastboot
Hope this helps you out.

Guys what he wants to do is copy the file FROM the SDCARD TO the PC.
First you will need to know where the location of your rom then type in the following commands:
Code:
adb devices
If you device is not detected then try to run the CMD as an administrator and try again
then:
Code:
adb pull {location without the curly brackets}
For example if its on the SDCard then:
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/rom.zip
It will paste the file to the folder where the adb is found
Then just open the zip file and get out the boot.img and flash it using fastboot
Hope this helps you out.

Hey, thanks.
No they got me correctly, there is absolutely nothing on my phone at all and I need to get my new ROM zip file from the PC to the phone so that I can install it. I am currently downloading SDK manager to try and update my adb to 1.0.29 or higher and will see if that works.

Ok, i downloaded the hasoon toolkit and select ADB Sideload a ROM and it says "error device not found" in the command prompt. I am in ADB Sideload mode in TWRP with it plugged in via USB so dont know what to try next.

Lol.. Well, as i said try to run the Toolkit/cmd as administrator and try different usb ports.. It took me 5 minutes on windows 8 for the adb to properly read the device , had to try different usb ports, unplug , replug, and so on..

Best place to post is in the nexus 7 forum which version of the n7 do you have?
1st option is to try wugfresh NRT return to stock and unroot option (check the option for soft bricked) if that fails then there are instructions for flashing a factory image in the stickies of the n7 forum. I presume if you've managed to delete the system you must have had unlocked bootloader and root
