HKC P771A Successful Root - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First i cannot figure out how to get this into the Tablets section
2nd, this device doesn't show in any phone/tablet section
Anywho, i did find a few threads on this guy here, so wanted to help direct those that are trying what i was and am. I want to put a better ROM on this device as it is way to slow with the 4.0.4 ICS it came with. It is very bloatware free which isn't surprising as it is a walmart brand and not a Veri$on or AT$T device. I do recall from previous flashes Rooting being step one of any upgrade, so i looked for a specific method for this device. Towelroot failed to find the needed exploit, as did every version of framaroot 1.4 through 1.9.x
The next rooter i tried was KingoRoot
simply downloaded the PC app (i'm on a Win7 x64 desktop) from their website kingoapp Think i got routed to software informer (yea annoying i know)
Installed app
It DL'd a driver it liked better (think it called it a samsung driver, who cares it worked)
Then offered to root the device
Clicked root
Program connected ten ran through dozens of what looked like attempts. Eventually seemed to hang on one at like 87% (which means something is actually happening with this tablet that's a good thing as it's single core processor hangs when you do anything)
Eventually after that (and possibly offering to close the app on the tablet screen or WAIT which i selected wait) it said installing root
then began rooting
PC app reported it was successfully rooted
DL'd RootChecker from the google play store
installed it
once giving rootchecker superuser permission, it confirmed root.
So, now where does a guy find ROMs for tablets, obviously it is a very basic android device, it isn't a phone so it doesn't need a pretty Cyanogen Mod, just something not ICS i'm thinking as this device hangs way to much to be functional. i THINK the spec are 16GB storage and 1 GB ram. Can't seem to find a central place to find tablet ROMs or even a repository of posts specifically for this device, As it is a WALMAR$T branded item, it has to be in heavy circulation, though perhaps not in the modding community??
Feel free to move this post where ever it belongs and comment if anyone has insight or suggestions

Tab Positivo BGH YPY, need help to root

ok, ive watched the you are Noob video, and it was too agressive haha, honestly i search in the whole forum and i couldnt find anything about this tab but what i know is:
-the tablet has android ics 4.0.4
*i read that android ver. cant be rooted, so i have to go back somehow to any previous version( i need help with it or atleast any thread to read about)
*i have the usb drivers installed (generic ones, generic tablet)
-main reasons of willing to root it:
*the tablet comes with spam, yes, it have spam, pop ups, downloaded root app delete to clear em but it says i need to be root user (SUCKS) where i live i dont have any diversity at all, i wanted an acer iconia which i wasnt able to get.
*need to uninstall no needed apps such as google+ which is always running hidden and some others, want more battery life
*also need to uninstall no needed apps cause the tab only has 380 ram ( it says 512 on the box) yeah i was like... okay
-what i have tried already
*superoneclick -> it stucks when i press root in "shell rooting device step 7"
*unlock root, it gives me an error "failed to get shell root, please use the services of our professinal root!"-> i bet they want me to pay for the program, program which id be pleased to buy if i just had a credit card, where i live theres no way to buy things in internet except if you have credit card
what can i see the "shell" thing idk whats that has a problem, its my first tab and i never ever before used android so i dont know.
any help will be thanked

[Q] rooted irulu 4.2.2 tablet?

hello,
i recently bought a cheap irulu tablet off ebay. it's running 4.2.2, and i'm not quite sure if it's rooted or not. i've read that most of their tablets are rooted right out of the box, so i downloaded 4 or 5 root checkers from the marketplace and some said it was rooted and some said it was not. i know that it does have su and busybox installed, but i don't have one of those superuser apps that request permission or anything. i can browse my full phone with any file explorer. i installed titanium backup, and it says on the main screen that root access is ok, but then it will pop up an error message that says:
BusyBox works but the "su" command does not elevate to root. There's something wrong with your "su" binary and/or "Superuser" app.
can anyone help me? i tried installed a superuser app to see if that helped, but it didn't.
anybody? *chirp chirp*
heh im guessing no one is rooting this tablets
I just bought My lil brother one of this Irulu's ones and i guess he's gonna stay Stock Xp

We cant give up that easy my friend ....
Hi,
Just wondering if anyone managed to make any progress with this? I recently bought an Irulu ax105 tablet running 4.2.2 and I'm having the same issues as the opening post. At first glance the tablet appears to be rooted, but I get that same message in titanium backup. Root Checker says that the device is rooted, but Busybox won't work because it says that the installer hasn't got root access. I also can't update the binaries in superuser because root access fails. Seems like it's not properly rooted.
Thanks.
I have a irulu that also said it was rooted. Installed su just fine. Was wondering about a recovery or ROM. Mine is 4.0.4. Tablet PC.

Custom rom already probably not. Somebody has to make one. There is a lot a rom can give but for myself I only need a custom rom to remove everything i dont need or wanna spend hours removing within the 4.2.2. These chinese tablets usually come with only the bare essentials installed. I would suggest gaining root and having fun optimizing it yourself. The first step when I go about creating a rom is getting jellybean just the way i want it without anything like games or useless apps. Then dumping your system and creating a base rom from what you got. Then you can remove the unnecessary, add any compatible extras...repack and install. Make it generic but original and youve got something you can adfly for any others on your model of tablet. You get some cash and the satisfaction that youve helped others with the ability for a custom roms. Thats all the easy parts unfortunately though. I doubt i should delve into that. Its possible you may get a recovery for another like tablet to work.
As for root thats easy. I chose to use Bin4rys tool. Google bin4ry and root restore its should be relatively easy with the correct adb drivers. I have 2 chinese tablets, one a quantum axis 7" and an irulu ak303 7". Aside from the fact that the irulu is pink and doesnt sport an hdmi out or rear camera, and uses a rockchip....they are identical in almost every way down to hardware. The adb drivers for the quantum installed via vista online as soon as i plugged it in, however I had to go to the www(.)irulu(.)net for the other. Then it was just down to starting up bin4rys progger and selecting each option till one showed print onscreen, and a tablet restart.
For future reference to anyone else finding their way here looking for root help on these tablets: If you dont have su installed, cant install su, apps say no root(or only half say root true), root only apps dont ask for permissions(or do but fail regardless) or any combination of those examples you most likely dont have root. And even less likely dont have root if you did nothing to gain root just check.
To make it easier sry....download and install SU. If you cant your not rooted. If you can load it up and be sure it all works properly and all info seems to be correct. That doesnt prove root however. Download an app that requires root, any trusted one shall do. Access the app and do whatever needs to be done in order for the app to request permissions of SU. SU should pop up and ask basically yes or no...choose yes and then assure the app did what it was supposed to do correctly. If it did you have root....if it continuously fails, or doesnt request SU permissions at all you do not have root.

hmm
Yes suprising lol, and lucky. Somebody might have made a decent ROM for it but I don't know one I'm sorry. You do have a good start on android though, a cheap tablet with a generic unbloated system. Start off with skimming a few tutorials on how to create a ROM by dumping a current system without modification of the actual files just dumping. You'll have a good jump start on android knowledge and even a little more about tablet hardware. It really comes down to the want or need of a custom rom. Which I would suggest either buy a second test tablet or learn more about ROMs before heading into recoveries.

I also bought a iRulu 7" Tablet 16GB and it does not even work. When it comes up it keeps saying that the keyboard stopped and a bunch of android files stop working. If I do get to set it up when I reboot it clears all my data ?? I'm returning it but man $43.00 is not even worth it.
I have a Kindle and a samsung galaxy S4 and they run circles around this. The only good thing I could say is it used and gave me 64gb with a 64gb mini but tablet won't work long enough to use it. I always have to do a factory reset and wipe all my data to get it to maybe work. I did this for about 2 hours last night and then gave up.

Thanks for the guide ,been looking a while
Just rooted mine
Have the irulu 6.5 inch mtk6572 unlocked 3g. When you plug it into your PC, enable MTP to root.
Just rooted it using framaroot from this site. Had to use v1.9.1, after downloading and trying every one. Only glitch found was that the superuser does not work correctly in adb shell, can't seem to get from $ to # when typing su. Had to install clockworkmod Superuser app from the google play store, now superuser works. Even installed busybox.
Ok, now that I have superuser access, wohoo, what I really want is to expand my internal storage using a swap, haven't figured that out yet though but have been working on it. Afraid to flash a custom rom, but do know that if you reboot to bootloader you can try flashing differant recovery roms, if they are not compatible, fastboot won't let you, when you look at your tablet screen it even says wrong recovery and quits, which is good.
Anyways, if I could figure out how to edit the vold.fstab, vold.fstab.fat.nand and vold.fstab.nand correctly, who needs a custom recovery?
Another thought, risky but may work, even tried playing around with the above mentioned fstab files by copying the android-x86 4.4 RC2:
kern
al
ramdisk
.img
system.
cfg
init
rd.img
to either a SDCARD or the internal phone storage, somehow blocking out the internal phone storage and booting from one of those, it may work. I'm running the 4.4 RC2 on a seperate partiton dual booting in ubuntu on my desktop. Figured out that you do not even need to install 4.4 RC2 from a usb stick or cdrom, just copy those 4 files to the hard disk, create a data directory and it boots up. So my thing is, maybe it will work on a android tablet. Wouldn't mind running kitkat on my tablet, and shoot, the internal storage is only 514mb, won't miss that to much if I could run kitkat from 2.11gb of storage. Another downside though is that alot of apps you like may not work doing this, know some don't on my PC, but than again, that could just be a PC issue.

[Q] Rooting Huawei G-510-200, Almost Total Beginner

This is my first post, so be patient please. (Not normally a poster, just a lurker)
Alright, so I have had an Australian (I live in Australia) $129 Optus Huawei G-510-200 phone for almost a year now, and I tried rooting about 6 or so months ago. And Failed.
It didn't do anything bad, didn't brick, but did wipe my SD card. I just pasted the files back on and I was good, but a little scared. At the time I had lookout security installed, but I have since removed it. Now that my warranty is well and truly over, I thought it would be a good idea to try again at root.
Apparantly new users cannot post links, so I will just have to provide a Google search query instead... (Results should be at the top)
There seems to be 3 ways to do it.
1: Cydia Impactor
2: The one I tried last time that has no name but uses batch files and wizardry. Search: "how to root huawei ascend g510-200 theunlockr"
3: Kingo-Root Search: "Easy method how to Root Huawei G510 and G300" on YouTube (Again, should be at the top)
Sorry for the sniffling, this one might work, but no unrooting procedure was shown.
Now, some people say you have to unlock the bootloader, but others don't mention it at all... (For both methods)
And will either of these root methods wipe either or both storage's (SD or Internal)?
Also, one of my games (one I paid money for) says some users had trouble using it with a rooted phone, if I wish to play the game again, is there an un-root procedure?
Cydia Impactor or Kingo root seems easier and simpler.
Moderators: If I posted in the wrong place can you move me please?
And yes, I have done a decent amount of googlingering...
Oh, and can I install apps as per normal from the play store after root?
Extra info:
Underneath the battery (in the tray) is has the following:
MAC:509F278467FD
S/N:U6V7NC93A2601810
(Then a barcode)
IMEI:868496019652230
(Then another barcode)
Thanks!, I look forward to a reply and a Non-Bricked Device!

Need help rooting the ZTE Atrium (Z793C)

Hi so i need some help and this looked like a good place to start. I bought my girl a phone for Christmas, its the ZTE Atrium (Z793C) through Strait Talk from Walmart. Its a CDMA phone and it runs off the Verizon network. It was a decent prize, ok size screen, so i bought it (not knowing it was a peace of crap), its running Android 4.4.4 KitKat. So heres the problem it has a CD card slot but it only lets you use it for pictures and thats about it. Its only has a gig or so of internal memory. So it didnt take my girl long to fill it up with facebook, games and crap. I have never seen a phone like this, every android phone ive ever had at leat let you put sum part of your apps on the CD card. So i need some help, Im not new to hacking devices you name it ive hacked it and this is not the first phone ive rooted. If it was a sumsung or a Motorola i wouldn't be here. What the heck is a ZTE (crap ill tell ya). So ive tried a couple of apps from the pc and from the phone with no success (iroot,kingo root, kingroot,framroot but the apk i downloaded only had one exploit). IDK maybe i did something wrong. Any kind of help with this problem would be much appreciated.
Please help Somebody gotta have some ideas
Mrn-1977
I also am having the same issues. I use my phone for business and require alot of different applications. Please tell me there is a solution to this problem.
It has been done
If you still want to know, I got the device temp rooted and will be looking into a custom recovery and Tom for permanent root later.
Please can you tell me the best root for my zte atrium?
Right now I discovered a temp root for thr ZTE ATRIUM. It is the only root working right now.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/temp-root-public-root-zte-z793c-t3415788
P.S: For the root to last longer keep all the apps you had opened while rooting and open terminal emulator and type SU. Then accept. Feel free to ask questions.

Allwinner A13/gs701b - Already rooted, on android 4.0.3, looking for an update

I have this fake china tablet, running android 4.0.3, but I would like to get an android version above 4.2.0, by any means, custom ROMs included, anything.
The tab looks like this: <electroniaychinas.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/new-q88-font-b-atm7013-b-font-have-hdmi-best-cheapest-7-inch-font-b-tablet.jpg>
So far, I managed to find its' firmware: <4shared.com/rar/-PVB60wZba/GS701B_ATM7013_Q8.html>
I found out how to root it, using MTK droid tools and this tutorial, including the files inside it (su, busybox, superuser.apk): <4shared.com/rar/_jWoAVtBce/gs701b-root.html>
My only purpose to this tablet is getting an app named "The World Of Magic" to work on it. @ <play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.com2us.imo.normal.freefull.google.global.android.common&hl=en>
The problem I'm getting with this game(The World Of Magic):
It installs correctly, from both the market and as an APK from the SD card.
The moment I try to run this application, it brings me to an uninstall prompt to this same application, which leaves me the only option to uninstall it.
Sometimes, if I agree to uninstall it, the tablet shows me a booting animation, as if I just turned it on (That could be a low battery issue, though).
Older versions of this application seem to load up, but not the newest, and the servers won't let me log in if I have an old version.
If anybody can only help me address this "uninstall" issue when starting the TWOM app, there won't be any need for looking for any updates for the android. I know, I should have messaged the developers of this game, and I did! Still waiting for a reply from them . I don't expect them to do anything, Com2us is famous for blocking their applications from being ran on computers, but I didn't expect older android versions not to be included in their game development.
Thanks in advance, but I guess I won't get much of a reply, because this device is old as hell. At least, I might have helped if anybody is looking for the firmware or how to root this thing.
