Hello! There is a simple method to root the Fujitsu Arrow F02E. I also own one and rooted OK!
- First, install its ADB USB Driver here: http://spf.fmworld.net/oss/driver/f-02e/data/download.html
If youre using windows8, it may block installing unsigned driver, then just restart with troubleshooting option and "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement". You'll be able to install the driver normally
- Download this: http://www.mediafire.com/download/3o5bdwl64lz6r66
It may contain Japanese characters in file name, you should rename it to something easier to understand. Unzip it, then plug in your F02E, run the file "runme.bat". If you install ADB driver correctly, runme.bat will find your device and starts to root it. All you have to do is press any key when it requires. (about 2 times) Goodluck! :good:
Thanks mate, I really appreciate your effort. It works and I have done on my handset. I also like to ask if anyone install custom ROM on Fujitsu Arrows X F-02E?:good:

Thanks!

I have pretty much read through the entirety of the Bootloader thread in Dev and while I found similar questions I didn't find an answer so I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. This is my second Rezound, I was able to root the first but it died (Thank goodness I got their warranty) so on to number two. I got it unlocked and I am running the one click. I was making the normal mistakes of not getting rid of sync, alternate adb etc. but I have cleared all that and now I get the following:

i think i can help
hold down the -volume button and hold the power down get into hboot push pwer once and go to recovery (note hit the power button to select ) now in blue screen go to devopment menu hit power now go to install su&superuser now reboot and you are rooted. i spent hours trying to root and nowhere does it say to do this but it worked for me now check for root from basic root checker if it works hit the thanks button
You have to gain root through recovery now as far as I know.

Con,
I want to use CWM since I paid for it with my last phone. You reference the OTA update version of the CWMPH98IMG.zip where might I find that?
You have to use amon ra to get root. Afterwards you can reinstall cwm. I don't have an ota package of cwm because at this point amon ra is better for this phone and I still don't reccomend using cwm. If you want it, get it from rom manager after you root.

Understood. I know that Koush did release a recovery for the Rezound. At least it shows up in ROM Manager. Out of curiosity is it possible to use Rom Manager with Amon Ra's Recovery?

No, you can use reboot to recovery with amon ra , but nothing else will work with it.
Bummer. Okay I downloaded OTAUPDATEAmonRaPH98IMG.zip and followed the directions in Con's guide and got to step 8 where the green text scrolled through but I did not get a prompt it popped me back to the HBOOT menu at which point I wasn't sure what to do. I rebooted and ran Root check but no root and I'm not sure what it is I'm going wrong.
Did you install SU from the developer menu in Amon RA?

Not that I'm aware of. Unlocked via HTC Dev then ran the OneClick. After that failed I posted this thread. I did download the CWM version but did not flash it. The rest is in the thread.

Did you put the amon ra image in the same directory as fastboot and run the fastboot command from the cmd line? I just updated mine today to the newest version.

Cons directions said to do it from the phone. So I'm not sure what you're suggesting. I've never used fastboot from the command line except to follow HTC Dev directions.
Okay so here's a new twist I tried running the bootloader again on the phone and was able to catch that the green text said no image. It went so fast I wasn't able to be sure. I'm going to try downloading and flashing again.
Ok let me see if I can set this up for you. Its pretty easy.
Download this file.
Place it in the same folder that you setup for the HTCdev unlock.
Rename it to "recovery."
Go to the command prompt and type in this command: cd c:\nameoffolder (mine is c:\Android for example)
Boot into Hboot
Select Fastboot
Connect to PC
Then type this exactly : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
That should get you loaded with Amon Ra.

what thread/post are you looking man?
in post#141 which valetto linked to there is no rapidshare link. Only one rapid share link is in that thread, in first post, and that's for Neo, which again, works fine.
For Neo V, there is no rapidshare links..
This below means what?
ROOT for LOCKED bootloaders
1)Flash 4.0.4(4.1.B.0.431) ICS and boot phone (links are in post#1)
2)Flash kernel from 4.0.3(4.1.A.0.562) ICS and boot phone. Flash only kernel, don't wipe anything!
i got the first link to 4.0.4
now i have to find the link to 4.0.3 also?
have you checked links in that post#141?
im alrady running on the 4.0.4 - 4.1.8.0.431
i dont understand if i must get the 4.0.3 version and flash that too?

Do not update
I had the CHT 9.18 too, I had Rootkeeper backup but cannot restore root after updated.
DO NOT update to 9.20 if you want too stay rooted!
I have to flash back old firmware and factory reset to start from scrach again but I had Titanium backup on MicroSD.
Don't try it till there is root method for CHT 9.20
Thanks for the log.
From your log, it appears the /data/local permissions have been changed in the latest update, thus the Debugfs method as it is currently will no longer work.
Your only possible options would be to downgrade the firmware, reapply the root, run OTA rootkeeper, and try the OTA again... however as your device is the padfone, I'm not exactly sure in what ways you need to go about doing this.
There's some discussion on the subject in the below thread around page 221ish, however there's no new root solution given as of yet.

Just out of interest, did you apply the OTA or did you download the 500MB file from the ASUS support site and install that from the SD card?
Does anyone have the ~146MB OTA file? And if not, does anyone have the exact file name?
Thanks.
Hi,
some days ago i brought a new Prestigio Tablet. There was no Root Tool available for this tablet and i did a lot of searching to find a way to achieve root rights.
Today I found a way and want to share my results with you.
The solution is similar to the one described in this Post.
The main difference is the file system of the system image.
In the PMP5080B Rom the system.img is in cramfs and the wendal script unpacks this image onto disk.
The system.img in the PMP5097C is ext3 so you can mount the image directly on a Linux system and copy the Superuser binaries and set the rights with chmod.
copy /B su system\bin\
copy /B Superuser.apk system\app\
chmod -R 0777 system/*
chmod 6755 system/bin/su
chmod 6755 system/app/Superuser.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
after you did this and copied the modified image back into the Temp/Image folder you can use the script to pack the ROM back together.
Now you can flash the new ROM on the usual way like described in the manual.
Hope this helps
Please can you upload the patched image file ..
THX a lot

Same problem here
I dont suppose anyone has had any progress with the russian firmware which was posted earlier, still cant seem to gain root access through it for some reason. It might possibly be the same problem as was detailed before in that the owner of the superuser is not root? although i have noticed that there is no superuser app on this firmware, any ideas anyone?
Ok found a firmware that seems to be rooted and is working 100% on my device only small issue is that it is for another tablet (eFun M1005) which seems to be the exact same tablet just rebranded for sale in asia possibly. Anyway:

You must extract firmware file with Wendal RK29xx Image Tools and then you get images (.img) that you can mount in linux (system.img, etc ..).
I rooted like this: extracted firmware with wendal, than mounted system.img in linux - copied "su" and "superuser.apk" and set right permissions to this files. Than packed firmware back together also with wendal tools.
Today I had to send my 5097 for repair ... it won't turn on no more normally. I had to press few times reset, then power and if that didn't work - sometimes it started when I connected it to PC. I tried several different firmwares, but same situation with all.
Anyone heard of or had similar problems?
I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to take the latest ota zip for the Xperia S, decrypt it, edit the version, repack it, then be able to flash it. Right now it will not let me flash over the current version r5 because it is the same version. I am stuck on the blue wave animation perpetually after screwing up my services.jar. I have no adb access and my only hope is to flash in recovery or wait until the next update comes out...
I was told by a Sony tech yesterday the Jelly Bean update for the Xperia S will not be until January...
EDIT: There is a way to fool the recovery. Does anyone have a modified r5 ota for the Xperia edited for a higher incremented version they could share?

If it is the same as Sony Tab S then you would need to disable the signature check to flash a modded update. To add to the bad news, that is no longer able to work with new recovery (that came with r5, for older tab anyway)
Any chance you can take it in under warrantly?? They may not be able to tell that you messed with it

Thanks for the response. Yeah I guess I am going to have to send it in or .. the other option is to wait for another update, but not knowing when that will be sucks. The Sony tech told me yesterday (when I called to find out my options..and I can send it in) that the Jelly Bean update is coming in January..So the question is will Sony have another update to ICS before then. Perhaps..

The funny thing is that I know which file is corrupted in the system. Its the services.jar. If only there was a way for me to replace that file....It would boot.

Yeh guttered. Can you check if you can get adb shell in recovery??? I know it is late now but this is why the AIO tool changes the incremental to a lower one... So we can flash same update if it turns to custard

stifilz is there really no other way we can revert back to the old Recovery? I mean like finding someone who is still on HC 3.2? and asking him to prepare the needed stuffs like the decrypt one? sorry but im really desperate on fixing the issue my tab is experiencing. and can we still hope for an updated AIO tool that might even work with the latest recovery mode?

I have tried to flash 11000 (3.2), 0035(3.2.1), 0042(3.2.1R2), ICS, R1A and NONE of these change the recovery back, i also tied NZ and US files, I was lucky enough to locate US files and had the NZ files saved to my PC. I have looked into AIO tool and read through the code, it runs a certain command in adb shell in recovery (WHICH WE NO LONGER HAVE GRR) so it can not be done ATM.
Maybe there is some file we can change on the tab to enable shell in adb again. From memory shell does not work with non-root devices and when we root we can use adb shell. (Can someone verify this, bad memory lol)
Anyway there could be something I am missing, well hoping anyway
You know you can change the incremental in vendor/vendor.prop to a lower one to flash an OLDER OTA.... Right??

Use AIO tool. Tweaks and mods then install rescue backdoor
Or
Download root explorer or similar. Open riot exolorer and navigate to vendor folder.
Long click vendor.prop and then select edit with text editor
Change the number to a lower one. Take of the last digit will do.
Click three dots for options and save
All done flash what you like

thanks! BTW im still able to flash to ICS updates right? BTW im not able to install pre rooted ics if i try to reflash to lower versions due to the inability of AIO tool to decrypt?
From AIO you can decrypt and flash anything lol. Except if you have the r5 recovery it wont work at all
i tried with B4nary's script again but all im getting is the terminal emulator. did you do something with the backupandrestore.apk? cuz i tried installing it and im getting forced close everytime i try to open it.
BTW im on r5 so i wont be able to downgrade? im still stuck at rooting it

You are typing in /data/local/tmp/onload.sh and then /data/local/tmp/onload2.sh????
You can change incremental after root and flash a ICS or R1A or even HC if you have the file

Ok doubt it will work but it is attached. I have zipped it up to add as attachment.
Please unzip it and then replace the file (of same name) in the 'stuff' directory of bin4ry's tool.
Good luck once again
