Same for me. I would like to root it but I'm not able to do it myself.
Any developper interested in this work ?
Actually if we are a few of us wanted to root this Toshiba, maybe we could give a gift to the one who can make it ? Don't you think ?
In France, Geant Casino has a good price for it : 215 euros. With the 70 euros cashback from Toshiba for this excite pure AT10-A-104. You have a 10" tablet for 145 euros.
This offer lasts until the 28/02/2014.
Unfortunately Toshiba is not the "unlock boot" for your customers type and anyone who rooted softbricked them and lost their warranty. I got the next day and switch it with the LG G Pad 8.3 which has a way to root it as long as you have access to Linux PC/Laptop. It's not easy but if you soft brick it you can recover it since it has support here in xda. Also the Tegra 3 is a bit outdated, the LG scored 3-4.000 more points more in Quadrant Benchmark and in Antutu was 2 positions behind LG G2 and topped HTC One X, with the custom Rom in Quadrant. I'm so sorry for Toshiba because after that I won't buy another one if the root is not possible and won't unlock the bootloader like Samsung and Motorola finally did.
Official answer on my question about unlocking bootloader or official update to 4.4
At this time there are no plans or announcements on an update for this tablet to Android 4.4, however we would keep an eye on the Toshiba Service Station option in the settings menu for any possible updates.
The bootloader on this unit is intentionally locked and cannot be unlocked by an end user; this is something that will not be changed in the future.

So yeah, if you still have chance, return this pile of junk.

Hi, first android device in a very long time. Doesnt seem to be any conversation about this newly released device. Would any of the roms/mods/etc for the LG G Pad 8.0 also work for this device? Any help would be appreciated. I made a request for a device subforum but im a little unsure how else to go about getting the ball rolling.
I just got it too. I honestly don't even care about rooting. I just want stock Android. My Nexus has me spoiled.
On your side.. already unlocked bootloader and got the 128gb microsd from SanDisk for this beauty!

There's another thread which seems to be the main thread to discuss unlocking the bootloader, adoptable storage, and hopefully eventually custom recovery and root.

A little late, but maybe, still useful.
The situation is similar with G5 (some fastboot commands are missing). However, .tot method will do the trick.
That's when we get a .kdz file. Most likely when Nougat comes out. But if we can get the .hex and .bin to revive the phone....
I have the AT&T version seems very similar except mine has 32gb of storage not 16gb. Pretty sweet so far for getting it free.
The current software, V52110b, is vulnerable to all four of the vulnerabilities recently disclosed and nicknamed "QuadRooter." If someone reverse engineers the patch, it should show how to exploit the vulnerability for root.

What are the chances that this device will get TWRP and Root?
Not that I know... But this seems to be the best android tablet around now considering the price. Furthermore, its born with Android 8, which means it will be treple enabled thus the adaption of vanilla Android or others should be easier. Likewise, this should also improve security patches. I hope that someone will bring it.
Any progress of Rooting the HUAWEI MediaPad M5?
I want to buy it cuz my old Pixel C is sadly broken, but I wanna wait till it gots Root and Custom ROM:
@Marcopoloy13 I am in a similar situation as I would like to retire my old Nexus 7 (2012) and I am quite optimistic that TWRP will be available quite soon, as there is a device tree for the Honor 9 available and the Mediapad M5 sports the same SoC ...
As I am receiving my Huawei Mediapad M5 PRO next week, I wanted to look for root ... Is Huawei known to make a fuzz about root in case of sending it in for repairs etc. (I have a Samsung-past, friends of mine had issues with their support due to root ... ) ?
I am very new to Rooting, i just want to get linux deploy on this tab to install Debian. I have unlocked the bootloader the rooting is very hard.... i have no clue to what i am doing and was following the guide on this awesome forum but the imaging and so forth is not somthing i understand.
i have the CMR-w09 (non pro)
Unlock the bootloader?
How did you unlock the bootloader? I tried the “Huawei unlocking page" mentioned at Kingoapps website, but it didn't find anything about unlocking or bootloaders.

For any WIFI only device, contact Huwaei via Phone (they rarely answer mails, so dont write one), explain the problem using their site (WIFI only device, therefore no IMEI etc), provide them your tablets serial number and let them send the unlock code via mail to you. Takes usually two business days until you have the unlock code.
Hello everyone!
I just bought the Huawei Mate 20 Pro and I have a question.
I have always had HTC and SuperSU and Magisk but the dev are very fast and I had my update even before their releases.
If I root under magisk My Mate20Pro, I would not have access to the official update anymore?
Because I see that there are only two ROMs, so I do not want to miss the next official update ...
Thank you all!
Because Huawei don't allow bootloader unlocking you'll be extremely lucky if you get a working root. There is someone who says they sell a root (I'm not going to advertise them here - have a look at other threads) but I wouldn't trust them and the prices are ridiculous.
The reason there's so little development for the Mate 20 Pro is because BL unlock and root is not readily available so, if that's what you wanted to do, you've sadly bought the wrong phone.
Hi All,
I've recently purchased a Huawei MediaPad M5 8.4 tablet, wit the default EMUI interface.
The device has recently upgraded from Android 8 to 9.
I'd like to install a custom ROM to see the differences in speed as well as reducing the amount of bloatware on the device.
Can anyone point out any available ROM's for the device that are tested and fully functioning?
I've read about Lineage OS but as far as I'm aware this is stuck at Android 8 level.
Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Did you receive a bootloader unlock code and did you unlock your bootloader? Otherwise you cannot install any custom ROM on your device.
Hi AndDiSa,
I've not been given any codes unfortunately. I bought the tablet from Amazon, boxed and new.
Is this code something I can obtain from the manufacturer, as it will still be under support and warranty?
Thanks

Sorry, but Huawei stopped giving away unlock codes more than 1.5 years ago. I doubt there is an easy way to get it nowadays .
5 years ago when i got Moto g5 plus. its community was very proactive in terms of ROMs and stuff, but that is not the case here with edge 30 pro, is it beacuse the phone is not that popular or its new? coz i am thinking of getting this or the upcoming moto frontier but since moto only supports the device for 2 years, i want to root my phone and install a custom ROM on it. does anyone know if the custom ROMs will be availabe for it anytime soon, and also if anyone can make a tutorial about rooting the phone, that will be very helpful. Thanks
The phone is new, not that popular, and motorola doesnt make it easy for custom roms either. We can probably count on some more popular ROMs like LineageOS as more people get the phone and demand rises.

thank you, but i dont think lineage OS will be better than the stock moto UI, i still love my moto g5 plus due to its support. Motorola should either provide atleast 3 years of supoprt or make the unlocking and installing TWRP easier. also one more thing i didnt saw TWRP installation in the provided link is it due to Motorola being more strict??

TWRP itself is on the decline since Android 10. Magisk-patching boot manually has become the more universal rooting method.
