Is it possible ? Since framaroot and towelroot didn't work and I only have a Linux computer and no Windows avaliable. I couldn't find the solution online and I know there are a lot of skilled people on here . Hope someone can help and hello everyone !
I've never personally had to use it as I've either used my windows computer or windows running in virtualbox(also another method you could try), but there is JOdin3. It's an opensource java implementation of Odin. So get yourself a root zip and try it out!
Thanks a lot ! Could someone write a quick guide for debian linux as I dont wanna brick my phone ?
There are several guides for windoes which thanks to JOdin3 would work the same, there are also video guides available for JOdin3. Is there anything specific you are unsure about?
Ok i downloaded the cf-autoroot zip for s3. So now lets say I flash it . Do I need to install a custom recovery, unlock the bootloader or something else in order to install a custom rom like androod revolution hd ?
Bumpity bump?
You would have to flash a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM in order to install a custom rom, yes. Sorry for the late reply, I've been busy and forgot to check back in
UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS
If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will**automatically "OEM unlock" and*wipe your data.
Should I be worried about this?

The Galaxy S3 is unlocked by default so nothing to worry about.

posible but if you want to flash custom roms it might require the latest android version.

no need to SIM-unlock it. you can root with sim locked phones. but again there are problems if you want to install custom roms.
btw, welcome to the android world and minis planet.
Adb (Android Debugging Bridge) is the way that your phone communicates with your pc. It is one of the programs included in the android sdk(software development kit if i am not mistaken). Many script that devs write rely on this program to communicate with your device. This program uses the debugging option to communicate with the pc.

Hello,
I'm with this machine the tablet DENVER TAC-10011.
the answer is: in this tablet i can install another rom?
Thanks
hello
Hi
I have no doubt you could not try install custom rom. I own exact same device and I'm just letting you know I've haven't tried yet but I've done some search about roms but I didn't yet encounter with something made for TAC 10011 so I suggest you look for ics 4.0.4 made custom rom what works on most tablets/phones. Also if you download root checker from google play and run the test you have already root acces or the files because I ran the test and it proved it also I figured it out earlyer that I could run some root apps so you don't need to look for root because you already have it.

Sorry that I've didn't answer earlier I had to do some things and reset some stuff but I've done some research and I've was partly wrong about few things first about the root it seems that system tells TAC 10011 has root but still no. This can be littl weird I just found that some root apps actually don't require root but still can run it on partly, I don't think you will not find custom rom but I'm not sure about if you go ahead and flash a rom what is incompatible and possibly bootloop whole tablet so I'm not recomending it. Just I've not done it once I've learned more a bit you could do still one thing. Since this is developer site witch im not heh still you could ask other developer make a rom for TAC-10011 posting new threat some options...

hello,
Develop a rom for this TAC-10011 would be a great idea. in this case would be an ICS rom but faster (...) I do not understand is nothing to build a rom ... lol
But hey, after some research I saw that the machines AllWinner, B-PAD, and BoxChip have the characteristics very similar.
Best Regards

You dont have proper root. You still need su binary!

Bricked?
My TAC-70031 is not booting anymore, last night it showed 2% battery and I guess it turned off during the night. Doesn't boot even when charging
any news?
Hi I was wondering if anything new came up for this device…
It's components should be able to run something more than 4.0.4. which is really laggy!
But I can't find anything about it, if anyone knows anything about Denver tablets I'd appreciate it.

First off welcome to XDA ! To root your device I would recommend checking out this thread and downloading the root tool from the link in that thread. Make sure to follow the onscreen instructions of the bat file included in the root tool very carefully that you will use to root your phone. If you have any questions about anything involving the rooting process, or have any questions at all about Android customization of Android in general feel free to ask (You can PM me as well if you want).

The root procedure should still work with 4.2.2 but to be on the safe side I would recommend instead checking out this thread that will show you how to root your LG G2 (D802) with the shipping ROM (Android 4.2.2). Make sure to watch the video in that thread (At least) twice over that way you feel comfortable with the root procedure, and what is involved. As far as does it effect the bootrom which I take it you are referring to your devices stock ROM that is on the device. Rooting does not effect the stock ROM on your device it just gives you root file system access and superuser privileges (Root user, which is like administrator privileges on Windows), in the process of rooting your device the Superuser app and su binary will be installed this is what allows you to run root apps and other root tasks. If you still have questions let me know.
thanks so much mate , i appreciate the help you gave , :good: ,
My phone is Rooted now thanks , any ideas or stuff you wanna share if you got any ? mods maybe dont mind me if im asking so much

Glad you got it rooted! The next step if you want to customize it further is to install a custom recovery image such as TWRP following the instructions in the thread. A custom recovery image will allow you to backup your stock ROM, flash custom ROMs, custom kernels and other MODs. For custom ROM's Cyanogenmod 11 for your device is a great custom ROM to start with lots of great customization options and performance tweaks. I would start with these and then I would check out the G2 D802 Android Development Section, if you want to customize further. Always happy to help people out, let me know how it goes :good:.
Hi Guys,
Newly bought this wonderful beast of a phone/tablet with a 7D-501L Build number.
I'm using Linux Mint 17, and I'm trying to find a way to root this device either by using adb or/and fastboot.
I've probably searched every "windows" solution out there, but so far no luck trying to understand their process to convert it to an adb/fastboot process.
Hope you guys can point me in the right direction

i rooted my 503L (EMUI 3.0 4.4.2 C208B009) using rootgenius app from the phone directly.
the phone was rooted initially when I flashed the KangVIP mod, but root was lost subsequently (cause unknown), upon recommendation from Chinese users, i re-rooted it successfully via the above mentioned app.
due to the KangVIP mod, Kinguser su management app was already the default su manager, i didnt change it, for 501L on international rom, you can download supersu from Play store after rooting to manage root access.

After doing little digging in , found few things about unlocking bootloader , rooting and flashing some root apps.. but our beloved device seems to be under the shackles of oem. Rooting and installing system apps comes with a price, u cannot update if there is any system updates from oem.
Created this thread hoping that someone can find some way of breaking these shackles. Anyone who knows a way of rooting and installing system apps without breaking system updates from oem, please share your ideas here.. I've been a long time flashaholic and this is what I used to do with my previous phone which is OnePlus one.
Unlock bootloader, root, install few root apps that I like such as viper 4 android. And when there is new ota updates from oem I'll flash stock firmware which will remove root so that I can update the phone with oem ota, after that I'll root again..
This seems to be impossible here.. if someone have some ideas please share..
Ps. If someone feels like this thread is unnecessary pls feel free to do the needful. Thanks.
Found this new nokia flash tool and steps with download links for stock roms.. could someone let me know if this is legit ? I'm pasting the website link here so that people can check that, pls forgive me if it's not allowed
https://raghuvarma331.github.io/Nokia-SDM660-Stock-ROMS/
Tried this myself and found that the fastboot for our device doesn't recognise the bootloader unlocking fastboot commands.. also found in few posts that earlier we were able to unlock bootloader in some old firmware and after that it was disabled by hmd.. I didn't want to go to some old firmware to do this, need to find a way to do this from Android 10. will keep trying to find more and update here.. I think we a need to wait till hmd decides to allow is to unlock bootloader.. meanwhile if someone else found something pls so share here.. thanks.

Definitely legit, he is the main developer for our device.
You are correct on the bootloader.
You need to be on earlier Android 9.0 firmware, I think Ver. 331 (not positive) or earlier. To be able to unlock bootloader. If you can figure a way to downgrade, then you can do it.
That is the current roadblock.
Once you have the bootloader unlocked it will stay unlocked.
You can then accept updates and or flash custom ROMs as you wish.
Can't offer a fix, but hope the information helps.
Now we don't need for downgrading to Android 9. XDA Senior @singhnsk has discovered a way to unlock the bootloader while on Android 10. You can reach him for remote unlock method (paid). It takes only around 15 mins.
Edit: Now the devs has released an unlocking method for Nokia 7.2 & 6.2 which is completely free and can be done by yourself!
Check out the thread here for free unlocking guide!
