[Q] Lenovo IdeaTab S6000 root + cwm - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there~!
I bought a Lenovo IdeaTab S6000 today. Lovely tablet, but I'd like to get it rooted so I can transfer my apps from my phone to my tablet. Can anyone help please? Thanks in advance~
Also I cannot seem to find any PC drivers for iit. Any ideas?
-Sephi

Alright never mind. I've discovered that using Framaroot works to root. Now all I need is a CWM version that is compatible. Any ideas how I would go about finding one?

The only version I found was for the Chinese build

I think I might just port it myself.

Yes framaroot works. I dont know if the a3000 has a mediatek chipset which is in the s6000. Regardless, it should work for you.
As for finding information, I checked the framaroot thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276

At this point I haven't had a lot of time to build it. Im also not very familiar with linux so it might take a while.

Does your device have a MT65XX processor in it? If it is a mediatek proc then I can help you port CWM or TWRP to your device.:good:

Yes the S6000 is mediatek

Ok, great! To begin with, use the tool in the first post of the link below to tell you exactly whether you have a MT6573 MT6575, MT6577, MT6589, MT6515 in your device. Post #5 of the thread below also gives directions for porting your stock recovery into a custom recovery. If you would like me to help I already have everything set up on my PC and we would just need to use MTK Droid Tools to make a complete back up of your stock system FIRST before we do anything (I recommend making 3 back ups just to be safe).
Once that is done you can just copy the stock recovery that MTK droid tools pulled from your phone to make a custom recovery. IF you need any help or have any questions feel free to shoot, this is kind of overwhelming the first time you look at it (or at least was for me when I first learned how! lol)

Try these:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/oaslz8xuxk7ag50/VRzHnZvA-b
If it says the program did not install correctly you may need to "reinstall using recommended settings" then. If these dont work I have like a dozen different drivers for Mediatek devices, if nothing else, install Snap pea, it will install drivers for most of these chinese made devices.
If you have too much trouble, let me know. I can connect through Teamviewer and install them for you if you have too much trouble trying to do so.
*Edit* Also you need to of course have USB debugging enabled on the device in settings too FYI.

Snap Pea worked. I have MT8125. Can you please help me from here?

First thing - make at least 3 back ups of stock files using MTK droid tools using root, backup, recovery tab. If back up button is not lit up you may need to click root in bottom right corner and grant superuser access on phone to ADB shell before MTK can back up files

Rooted but no further
Snap Pea did not pick mine up and the drivers from the link installed successfully and still not working correctly. Any ideas?
EDIT: Apparently windows is recognizing it as S6000-F which is correct but then tries to identify as just S6000 at the same time. It doesn't seem to interfere with the ability to transfer files. Snap Pea still not recognizing however. In MTP mode if that makes a difference, not sure.

Hmmm. Try with usb storage off. If that fails, try LeTools. You'll need the offline version. When I get home tonight I'll see if I can find the drivers.

Emulating Roms

Is there any way to emulate an android froyo with normal kernel and everything a normal android phone has? Including a market and recovery mode. I want this mainly because I feel terrified by the thought that I might brick my phone flashing a custom rom and I am a beginner so I never tried anything complicated with it. So before I try anything over my phone I want to try this on an emulated phone. Thanks in advance :good:

You can't emulate your device inside a computer as far as I know. Best thing to do would be just to read add much as you can and familiarize yourself with the process. What phone do you have ?

Your quite lucky with that phone as it accepts custom updates without being signed my Samsung.
I've had a quick look at the install procedure and can pretty much guarantee if you can read English you won't brick your phone. Its that easy

I don't know about the boot into recover mode but to transfer files to fake sd card if i remember right you transfer it via the windows cmd, i cant remember the process as this was a while for me. Search Buildroid for VirtualBox on google and on their site scroll down and you will see the process. This is just to test android and other apps etc but not sure this is what you looking for. As far as emulate you device hardware, i don't thing it is possible to on PC

Anyone with a Prestigio 5044 able to dump it?

The Prestigio 5044 is a relatively new device, but I'm wondering if anyone has one and is willing to dump its NAND for me? I have one ordered but I'd like to have a dig through its files before it arrives.
There's a guide to dumping it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44509214&postcount=407 and if anyone'd be able to set me up (sadly there aren't any official images yet!), it'd be much appreciated.

Download this http://d-h.st/H62, unlock developer options on mobile (keep pressing build number in about screen)
turn developer option on, tick usb debugging.
Connect cable, select usb mode as MTP device, wait for the driver to install.
After that run as administrator file run.bat from mt6589_rooter folder and reboot.

Yo dude, I know Im late as hell but if you're still online, can you give an advice on how to flash stock rom?
I did everything according to some guide but when i should get a green circle - meaning flashing succeeded, I dont get anything..it flashes something cause i see the (pink) line moving forward but after it finishes, there's nothing and when i turned on my phone was the same as before. Probably cause of drivers...
I just want to upgrade the official firmware but as I deleted some stock apps, the update fails. So I found the stock rom, now I just have problems installing drivers and flashing it. Geez on my xperia arc s everything was so easy..
If anyone can help, I'd really appreaciate it

Wrong version of the phone. He has the AT&T model.
OP - Do you know which update you were / are on? If you have 4.3, then you CAN NOT downgrade without risk of really getting into trouble and possibly hard bricking it. If you have not taken the 4.3, and you want to continue to modify your phone, don't install 4.3.
If you have taken the 4.3 update, you'll have to follow this:

If you have not, then follow this:

Version
Okay so its 4.1.2 now i followed the tutorial and just awaiting on the download! Wish me luck :highfive:
I am not sure how I could be more clear when I asked which version of the software is on your phone. It doesn't matter what the guide said it was for, it matters what is ON your phone before you start. If you were on 4.3 before and you did anything 4.1.2 related, this would be why you are in this situation in the first place. Knowing this would and should have been the first step to any attempt to modify your phone. If, for some reason you don't know (argh!), then the easiest way I can think of would be by the Settings app. Was it tabbed with 4 different options across the top or just one long list that you have to scroll all the way to the bottom to see everything?
The tabbed Settings didn't come by till 4.3 for your phone.
Yes it had 4 tabs

I've been watching this thread since you opened it. Why would you use Chainfire 3D to root your phone?
CF Auto Root would of been the better method for attaining root. The previous mentioned program isn't for what you attempted to use it for. Can you get into download mode?

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Ace Style(Straight Talk) sm-s765c

I have just achieved root with a tool called Towelroot.exe, now I would like to install a custom recovery but my device isn't listed in Rom Manager.
Is it safe to flash recovery from a device that is similar to mine?
How do I go about finding the right recovery so I can do a nandroid backup for my phone. I would also like to flash Cyanogenmod so that I may customize my device.
Any help would be very appreciated.
I'm rooted also!
Same lol I hope soon we have a custom recovery...JB 4.3 is awesome but wanna try KitKat.....since rooted with towelroot I got Xposed framework on mine ?

Galaxy Ace Style sm-s765c Stock recovery sucks
Anyone know what my Galaxy Ace Style sm-s765c compares to, I think it's close to the s3 mini except that it has 512MB ram and the s3 mini has a gig I think.
This stock recovery doesn't even have an option to make a backup, what the hell were they thinking. What in the heck would you do if something happpend with your stock os and you needed to restore it or something like that.
I would sure like some help with this, to understand why I just can't throw a recovery that was close to my system onto mine, How bad could it be would it really screw up the booting process? They all boot the same don't they? I would think it would be safe just as long as it's the same os version right?

Is what I did when Towelroot opens you click the Welcome to Towelroot v3 three times then a textbox will appear with some random numbers and the second to the last one is a 4 delete the 4 and put in a 2 and that worked for me.
Hope this helps:cyclops:

Something else I was wondering the file system on my Galaxy Ace Style has an extsdcard and an sdcard, they have different contents in both,
Which one is my actuall sdcard? I think it's the extsdcard but I'm not sure.
Edit: Never mind I got it now.
I was able to download the stock recovery 7.5mb and stock kernal 6.1 mb with flashify, I don't know if a programmer could take these files and do something with them or not or if they are even the files I need..

Have you ever tried the automated cwm recovery builder,

Thanks to Ameer Dawood the create of online nandroid availible at google play added our phone to his database, We can now do a full nandroid backup, I don't know how this works without a custom recovery but it does somehow, There should't be any reason Ameer can't help us with a custom recovery,(I will ask).

Hi use towelroot.apk from towelroot.com and tap welcome to towel root 3 times when the box at the bottom comes up change the 1 to a zero so it will look like 1337 0 0 0 4 0 tap make it rain and the device is rooted, reboot the phone first and it will hold root.
Howdy yall...lol. I would like to let you all know I have decompiled the hiddenmenu.apk within the system/app folder and guess what if we can get to these hidden menus it has options to turn off secure settings, however it does require a key.......I just send an email to the samsung dev responsible for handling the keys, will keep you posted also I will post the dialpad codes soon so keep your eyes peeled here.

Why can I not root my phone properly?

Hello XDA-Forums!
Lately I've upgraded from Android 4.4.4 to Android 7.0 Nougat.
My old phone used to be rooted, which I was happy with.
Now I have a new Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) which is running on Android 7.0
Straight away I tried rooting my device like I did with my old phone, using KingoRoot for PC. But unfortunately, that didn't work. I
also tried using other 3rd party software such as KingRoot but no luck either.
I had a look on this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...nt/sm-g930-exynos-cf-auto-root-t3337353/page1
So I tried rooting my phone using CF Auto-Root, with Odin v3.10.6, but that didn't work at all and also caused my device to go into a boot-loop and made a message appear. The message was "Recovery is not Seandroid enforcing". So I had no choice but to flash to Stock firmware.
My question is, why can I not root my phone properly? Am I doing something wrong?
Hope someone knows the answer to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

Old methods dont work with latest devices, especially with latest security features and bootloader restrictions.
You can still root it using this guide.

Okay, so I had a look at the link you offered me and gave it a good read. But all the links are classed as malicious, so I don't have any access to the right files etc. What can I do?
Thanks

Alright okay. But which ones do I specifically need? Because it says I have to get a ROM from the link they offer but it's blocked.
Sorry if I'm bothering you too much. Just need specific instructions as to what I need to do. Don't want to brick my phone.
Thanks.
