Hello XDA!
I would like to root my newly purchased device, an Obi mobile S401 (I believe it's nicknamed Raccoon).
It's a cheap-o device (250 AED, roughly 80$ US), which may account for its near obscurity - so far I've been unable to find anything relevant to rooting this device, whether on Google or by browsing various message boards like this one.

Hey all...
My friend wants me to root his phone. To make a long story short, I have no idea how to do this because I only have experience with Samsung devices. Can you guys give me a comprehensive step by step guide on how to root & flash, along with some of the most popular roms/kernels?
His device specs:
System version: version.4.1.83.MB860.ATT.EN.US
Model number: MB860
Android version: 2.2.2
Baseband version: N_01.77.15P
Webtop version: OSHWT_U1_4.257.30
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9-00007-g527fe10 [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr4 14:54:15 PDT 2011
Build #: OLYFR_U4_1.8.3
Thanks, kvswim

It is a fake nothing on this forum can help you either return it or try a fake forum .
Multiple posts on the same subject fake on this forum its all a dead end as its not Samsung and not SGS3 and not I9300 and it looks as if its not even the standard fake .

Hi there,
I have what I believe is a pre-release (ie. "4g test device) Note 2. It has a serial # stamp on the front top left (and I never received the OTA 4.3 update... i assume my IMEI number was excluded from whatever pool of IMEI's Verizon uses to push updates to). I'm still on what I believe is the stock firmware and I'm finally looking into rooting it and putting a custom ROM on. Unfortunately I'm not well-versed enough to look at the baseband, kernel, and build versions to determine if my phone is truly a stock hardware unit and on the original stock software (in which case I'll just follow the root guides in the Development forum) or if my stuff is somehow different because it is a test device.
Here is what my "About Phone" screen shows:
Model # SCH-I605
Android Version: 4.1.2
Baseband Version: I605VRAMA4
Kernel Version: 3.0.31-886776
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 24 22:23:50 KST 2013
Build Number: JZ054K.I605VRAMA4
Hardware Version: I605.06
So, based on the above, is my phone the standard Verizon Note 2 hardware and is on the original stock software? I searched pretty extensively but I couldn't find any other thread with this question. If this is out there already I apologize, please link me to it.
Thanks in advance.
Everything matches MI e.

Hey there! So i've had my tablet the AXTROM AXPAD 8E01 for 2 years and 2 days i think, so i found it again and started experimenting. As the model says it is a chinese company indeed. The tablet is semi-broken thanks to the chinese cheap methods. Anyways my question is how do i root this thing? I can't seem to find an answer anywhere in the internet. Here is the info.
Model number: AXPAD 8E01
Android Version: 4.1.1
Touch Panel version: JL 20
Baseband version: Unknown(not surprised at all)
Kernel Version: 3.0.8+

This tablet was gifted to me by my uncle in the middle east. If i can root it i won't throw it in the trash, but if i can't then it's basically useless because it's charging cord is semi-broken too, so straight to the trash. All info came from the about in the settings.

EDIT: I found the firmware for the tablet, if that is gonna help. It's on their original website. I can't post the link as i must post 10 posts.

Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
I'm not finding any device specific forums for your model or any specific rooting threads for you. Sadly, the most I can do for you is have your thread move to a Q&A forum, maybe some experts there can help you. I hope this helps, good luck.
