HI,
I am using Sony Ericsson Live with walkman..
i need to root my mobile.
I followed these instructions:
Before you take a step further, please make sure that your device is Sony Xperia Live Walkman WT19i . You can check this at Settings >> About Device.
Take a backup of your existing ROM using the ROM Manager App available on Play Store.
You may also opt for a backup of your important data such as SMS, phone numbers using one of the backup apps available on play store for free.
The rooting process work on internal battery power. So we would recommend you to charge your device more than 80%.
Disable all anti-virus software installed on you device and PC.
If you have kies installed on your PC, just uninstall it.
Enable USB debugging on your Device. The option for this is available at :
Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging or
Settings> Developer Option> USB Debugging
Now your Sony Xperia Live Walkman WT19i is ready for a root upgrade.
i successfully flashed my mobile in to flashmode. but when i try to run doomlord rootkit v4(downloaded from ur site).
i got these following errors:
failed to copy 'files\su' to '/system/bin/su' : Read-only file system
unable to chmod/system/bin/su: no such file or directory
rm failed for /system/xbin/su, Read-only file system
failed to copy 'files\Superuser.apk' to '/system/app/./superuser.apk' :read only

having a very interesting problem rooting my tablet. After the aio tool finishes rooting it comes up with this
failed to copy 'files\su' to '/system/bin/su' : read-only file system
and more
i try root check and it says no root even though the aio tool says it is
please help
Did u do the rescue backdoor
Are you in ICS of HC ?
Do you have USB Debugging enabled
Does it says something like this:
Code:
[SIZE="2"]flooding log.. run-as: package 'com.pwn.me'is unknown
Remount failed: operation not permitted
Failed to copy (all the root apps)
Cleaning up...
Failed on '/data/data/com.google.android.location/lib.bak' -No such file or directory[/SIZE]
This means the rooted apps are not installed on your tab
And that means that the tablet lost connection with the pc during the process,
You could try this: - Had the same sort problem fixed it with this -
1. Disable the "Sony Tablet S" in the Windows Device Manager (Or MTP Device)
2. With the AiO tool choose option 1 (Root)
3. Wait until you see the device disapear from the list
4. if it returns enable it again and wait for the process to complete.
Hello could anyone please help me with rooting my zoostorm sl8 mini running ICS. I just don't know which rooting program to use and with one will work. I have search the web now for days and cant find anything.
Please Help!
Thanks:good:
Use the Qemu exploit
This can device can be rooted using DoomLords Xperia script. I have ported the script to linux as well for Ubuntu users,
The original script is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
I haven't tested the Windows script, but I assume it will work as I haven't changed anything, the Linux script has been fully tested and I have successfully rooted the sl8 mini using it.
For Windows see below:
1) Download the attached zip file and Super1Click zip file ( http://download.cnet.com/SuperOneClick/3000-2094_4-75447027.html ).
2) Unzip the zip files into a new folders (you can use 7-zip for this : http://www.7-zip.org/)
3) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
4) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
5) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
6) Connect the table to the PC with a USB cable.
7) When the new Hardware Found Wizard find the Android device and can't find a driver, select install from speficic location and browse to drivers folder under the folder you just unzipped the Super1click file to.
8) The driver should install from here and will show as an Acer Android device.
9) If Windows complains about the driver not being signed tell it to continue anyway.
10) Reboot the Windows PC if requested by the Hardware installation Wizard.
11) Discconect and replug the USB cable.
12) Open a windows command prompt
13) Navigate to the folder where the unzipped rootsl8mini.zip files are.
14) type runme.bat
15) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
16) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
For Linux (Ubuntu Precise Pangolin)
1) Install Android SDK, make sure the folder where adb is located is in your shell path variable. See link for Ubuntu instructions (http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/07...-androidsdk-in-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/)
2) Download the attached rootsl8mini.zip file and unzip it into a folder.
3) Go into the folder where you unzipped the file and make the runme.bat.sh file executable. (Myhost:$ chmod 777 runme.bat.sh)
4) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
5) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
6) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
7) Connect the tablet to the PC with the USB cable.
8) Execute the runme.bat.sh script (Myhost:$ ./runme.bat.sh)
9) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
10) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
Enjoy
Thank you, do I go to unzipped file using command prompt?

download and update the zip
Bought this tablet as a gift for my father and assumed that connecting it to a usb keyboard would be straightforward (yeap android noob ) . My question is , is that even possible? Is there a custom rom that can be installed, I presume after rooting the device that enables usb host mode?

5. Windows will detect the device, let it stabilize then extract A87 drivers to a location say "C:/drivers"
6. Now goto start type "device manger" open device manager, you wil find "android adb interface" right click upgrade drivers and lead it to a location of your extracted drivers, do the same with other devices you get with an exclamation icon. (dont worry if you dont find other devices, its fine)

And find it there...
Firstly, Get a rooted custom/stock ROM and save it in your device's sd card,
Then goto ClockWorks Recovery ( First power off your device, then hold volume up and power key untill superfone logo displays to get into recovery menu), (scroll up and down for three times to enable the power button with vol. up and down key)open 'mounts and storage' menu
Then choose 'format/system' . After the completion Goto main menu and choose 'install zip from sd card' -> choose zip -> And install it.
And after completion, Reeboot. DONE, your got a rooted device...!

I've tested the root routine at my new DG110 and it works fine.
After rooting device pls. start the superuser.apk and enter "yes" to update the .apk
How to root :
Make sure USB debugging is enabled. Go to settings > developer options > enable USB debugging
Install the drivers for your phone
Extract the AUTO ROOT folder from the .rar download
Connect your phone to PC using a USB cable
Run run.bat from the extracted MTK6589 Auto Root folder
Press any key and wait while it roots your phone
After finished, now reboot
Enjoy your rooted phone and verify your root access with root checker !

That's true for root?
And for flashing without losing the IMEI? Do I do?
In addition, I must first make the first root or flashing?
didn't work for my dg110, kingoroot.apk worked ok.
anyone know which devices are similar for porting ?
