Hello,
I have a Prestigio MultiPad 9.7 PRO tablet that I got for free. The device itself is not bad, but it could do so much more if it had root access. The tablet is not so popular, so there aren't any tutorials on the web. That is why I'm asking for help here.
The device is getting updates via the OTA Service app. It downloads a system.img file onto the SD card, and then it asks me if I want to install it. Now, I'm asking is there some way to "inject" SU and BusyBox into the IMG file, and then install it.
Any help will be grateful.
Hi! :laugh:
I rooted this tablet with a modified rom, you can find it here
(http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17482271/PMP5097CPRO_V1.0.3_20120418.rar)
But it is "only" version 1.03 which is rooted but t works flawlessly. Decomress the .zip file and rename the file to "update.img" and put it directly on your internal sd card of the tablet and restart it. It will ask for an update. You will get a rooted rom v1.03 without loosing any data. When you update to the latest firmware you will loose root. Tried by myself. I also tried to modify v.1.06 and to implement Superuser & Co but without success. I am a totally noob in linux .

Hello there,
i hope i'm in the right Forum with my question.
i Have two Devices there i want to become root Access.
First is the Chinese Star S9300 (MTK6577) with Android 4.1.1
And second the Tablet GD Ippo AK10
For even Devices, there exist a custom rom or a exact manual how to root, there i have tested some one Click Root Method.
On Root_with_Restore_by Bin4ry i become everytime the Message Permission denied (are you root??).
Now my Question: How could i cancel the permission control to complete the Root or what way could i go to root the Devices.
Otherwise, i have read in many Forums that the Star S9300 often are rooted, but my isn't, rootchecker says me that it isn't rooted and SuperUser and Busybox could become Root Access.
I thanks alot for Help, i realy must rooted the device, to Install Apps that i need for Work.
With big greetz

Hi all,
I need your help with the following tablet 9" GT90H with Allview A23 CPU/ chipset and android 4.2. I want to backup the ROM, to perform few modifications and to upload the modified image to the tablet, but I am stuck on the first phase (cannot dump the rom).
I tried several ways to do it (actually that I found) to dump/ backup the stock ROM but I was stuck on all of them. First I tried using the clockwork way, but unfortunately my tablet is not supported (and I could not find supported MOD). Then I tried with romdump, but unfortunately I was stuck because the tablet does not have /proc/mnt file. Finally I found a way using the rkdump method but I had non recognize image error (although I am not sure if I found the correct partition to back up - /dev/block/by-name/recovery ). I have doubts if this is the correct partition, because I did a binary copy using dd to a file, which ended up with size around 32 MB (which I found too small for a recovery image).
So that is why I decided to seek help from more advance users (this is my first tablet, and first android experience) and I believe this forum is the right place for that.
My first request is could someone guide how to make a proper ROM backup, that I would be able to restore later?
In addition I want to ask is it possible, once I backed up the ROM, to modify for example the home page (because on the current ROM the home page for all browsers that I install is http://www.baidu.com)?
Moreover I would like to to install the ROM on external memory card and to run the tablet from there (because the internal memory of this table is too low - 8GB but for the system partition I have only 500 mb, which are all occupied with pre installed software). Is this something that I can achieve (android as far as I know is *unix system, and in theory this should be possible)?
Thank you in advance.
For increase space you can use Terminal Emulator for market and must have root on tablet.
Open terminal , and run the commands :
pm get-install-location (this will show you where apps are installing in this moment)
Auto device install is 0 (the tablet chose auto where to install apps,usuale is chosing to internal memory,your 500mb )
internal memory is 1 (Tablet memory - your 500mb )
External memory is 2 this is where you want to instal apps - (your 8GB )
After run the comand and see the sistem is set to AUTO (0) you will run this :
pm set-install-location 2 - This will force apps to instal in your 8gb
to check if is ok , run again : pm-get-install-location
exit terminal emulator
Good luck ! Hope it help you
Problem with my GT90H
Hey Guys,
I have a Problem with my GT90H. It stops to boot at the screen: Tablet PC - Keep Moving Forward.
If i go in the recovery mode. I can reboot the system, but it stops at the same screen like I explained in my first sentence.
The Factory Reset doesn't work. So I read in some communitys that Tablets can be flashed with a new ROM (Android System) over the USB Port from the Computer.
So can anybody send me the Android 4.2.2 Image for my GT90H ?
It's very important. So thanks.
Thanks for your help.

I have bought new Bauhn tablet AT-HK97.
I tried lot to find method to root it.
It does not have volume Button, and drivers are also not available.
Specifications:
Rockchip 3188T
Cortex-A9
Quad Core
1.4 GHz
Android 4.2 .2 Jellybean
I want to root it because, ts system storage is of 1GB , which is not enough for me. And internal storage of 16 GB, it tried lot to install apps in 16GB storage but all fail.
Any resolution for this yet? I have the same problem
Rooted but not Bricked
Hi there those interested. I have been procrastinating due to illness but I have located an update image and loaded it onto my external SD card. After installing Kingroot which gave me access to the root directory, and a file manager which could manipulate root, I moved the update IMG to the root. Howerever, when I rebooted, it seems the r/w reverted to r/o and caused an error. Subsequent attempts to run the update removes the .IMG file from the root before it can suggest the upgrade. I suspect the culprit is Kingroot which knows that an upgrade will uninstall it. I have reset to factory data and was able to disable Kingroot but it still hangs in there waiting.
Amazingly, the unwanted .IMG file has been moved to the inaccessible internal storage.
My next option is to try a rooting method that doesn't take over my system. Any suggestions?
There options for removing Kingroot but they seem to just replace it with similar monsters.
Also, 'root genius' is a method which is used from a PC. Has anyone any experience with this?
I guess the device is rushing on to 3 years old and any owners and users may have moved on to later androids.
However, I find the device still quite useable for my old eyes. I just wish I did not need to clear out data to download app updates.
Any help would be appreciated
Q&A for Intel Android Devices Root / Temp CWM Session
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer.
Before posting, please use the forum search and read through the discussion thread for Intel Android Devices Root / Temp CWM Session. If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.
Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
Will this root method work with ASUS devices?
The thread title (Intel Android Devices Root / Temp CWM Session) suggests this is a generic rooting method for tablets with Intel SoCs. Is there any reason why this shouldn't work with the newer Intel Atom-based Asus tablets such as the MeMO Pad ME176CX? The current and as far as I know, only rooting method, for the ME176X uses an app called RootZenPhone.
RootZenPhone appears to use the same exploit as your script-based root method, but wraps it up in a APK with obfuscated asset names. (Note: I ran clamscan on both the APK and your files, and both tested positive for the exploit). I prefer your method because it has a cleaner, more opensource design. I can basically read what it's going to do, at least up to the point where you run the exploit.

It should work I've tested it on Medfield, Clovertrail, and Baytrail devices, from the Asus fastboot.imgs I've looked at trigger 2 and 3 should work.
the apk you refer to i believe actually uses a function Asus only seems to of built into thier droidboot binary on the Asus when you start droidboot it looks at /factory for a file called .addon and then triggers it Asus uses it for automating things under droidboot I believe and several recoverys have been built to take advantage of it.
As for the exploit the exploit is the the script the binarys are nothing really special just responsible for setting up and starting the recovery session. recovery.trigger is a simple daemon to launch recovery.launcher and recovery.launcher is basically a small subset of cwm recovery its self.

Another possible device
Hello,
in Czech forum where I compiled a native-language short guide how to use your tethered CWM recovery to root Op3n Dott (I see that somebody confirmed that both T2 and T3 triggers work] one Slovak user reported that he was able to use the tool to root Prestigio MultiPad Thunder 7.0i http://www.prestigio.sk/catalogue/M...NDER_7.0i#/product-specs?article=PMT3377_WI_C. I sent him a question concerning which trigger did he use so if he replies I will send more info. Sorry for the Q&A thread, but I got kicked here because of the low post count.

Is the recovery built from source?
Hello, one more question - is the recovery built from source by you, or is it a ready-made recovery from someone else? Because if you have your own tree an are building it from scratch, it might be possible to include the call of my tool used for dumping images (dump_images from merrifield_bin of dell-venue-boot-tools for signed images and possibly a renamed one from zte_gxi_boot_tools for unsigned images) to /sbin/nandroid-md5.sh script and add the tool(s) to /sbin. I know it is not the best solution but at least it would be possible to backup the images if not restore them from CWM.

The actual recovery is built by @vampirefo but i am very interested in adding that feature in and was actually going to ask you about that.
Also have you looked at any of the older update_osip source?
Can you please tell me an easier to understand method.
Because even though i understand what you're talking about, i don't know where to put the files. I understand flashing the session and all but coukd you pleeease explain how to root. Because this the first time i'm rooting a device
Thanks

Thanks to Social Design Concepts for the great work. It is appreciated!
Fajfie, thanks for posting. That's awesome. If you used Windows, how did you get Device Manager to identify the Dell Venue 3740? I've downloaded all recommended driver files in this and the previous thread and I can't get Windows to identify the device. When I run launcher.bat I get DEVICE: UNKNOWN.
Any ideas?

Problems with the update surpeuser zip
I followed your guide to rooting Acer iconia tab 8 A1-840FHD with intel chip, (Wich is great by the way thanks) and evrything goes to plan until, i get to Install Zip. I get, E:Can't mount /sdcard/ Update-superSu-v2.40(1).zip Installation aborted. I've downloaded the zip from your link by desk top (windows 7) and transferred it over. Also downloaded from the tablet and just used a file manager to move it over to sd. Same msg for each. I used the T3 option. any ideas how to get the zip to install?
Zip copy to folder on your tablet (download,...) and install from recovery install. zip.
