Hello guys, I have a question about my galaxy tab but firstly I must say you 'I have searched everything about this question on xda, on google and I know I am a noob on xda..'
My company gave me a galaxy tab 10.1 and It has an android 3.2 but It is limited. Please don't ask why because It is limited
If I root it, I will not use in my company because my company have a big screen (50 inch) and my tablet cannot connect. But I want to use a normal android on my tab.
So I've thinked and I decided to use my tablet wit 2 OS. one is normal android one is limited android. So how can I install a normal android without don't remowe , don't damage limited android.
I'm sory for my English because my english is not well enough..

Someone can feel free to correct me if Im wrong but... I dont believe it is possible to Dual Boot on the GTAB 10.1... At least not at this time. Maybe in the future...
But i heard my friend, his friends friend has done it and he has had 2 OS now..
And, why do you think like that?

Well firstly... If your friends, friends, friend did it then why not ask him / her how to do it?
Secondly, I BELIEVE that in order to "dual boot" the device you would need to do so from an SD card and the GTAB does not have an sd card slot.
Thirdly, IF it was possible to do then there would be HUNDREDS of threads here on XDA about it already.
I wish I can ask him.. But at that moment I can't.
And yes i think you are right but I am looking for a little probability. As a result this is a machine and I think people can control it
any idea?

edit:
And galaxy sII has dual boot (I found a link but I can't send because I'm noob and haven't got 8 posts. But I wrote it 'reson for editing')
Both of them have got arm cortex process. Just Gtab hasn't got a sd card. only Is it a problem?

Really, if the device was issued to you by your company it's not really yours to putz around with. Not to be a party pooper, but why not just get your own device to destroy?

I'm sory.. I don't understand Q&A is a forum that I need..
Download "switchme" from the market and give it a try. That's your only option. It's still beta, so don't expect much right now.
BTW- if you don't own it, I strongly suggest you don't mess with your tablet, especially if you don't know enough to find this stuff on your own. Also, you better do a lot of reading before you mess with it; somehow I get the feeling you'll be back here in a day or two complaining that your tablet isn't working anymore...
Some tablets support this without SD card
For example the Archos IT tablets support dual boot, namely one in 'normal' mode, and one in 'developers mode', but what I've seen until now it looks like SGT does not work that way.
okey and I have a problem too..
I couldn't flash any cwm version to my tab with odin (already my tab doesn't work like a flash bellek even in download mode).
for ex.: with a cwm.tar.md5 I have this error: Invalid binary signature

Koush having free time? Good luck with that.
Although, I've seen generous donations help people create free time for some developers. I don't know if it would help in this issue. I wouldn't expect anything in return for a donation of any size though. Otherwise it wouldn't be called a donation but payment for services.

You need drivers from the Samsung site.
...And a lot of reading before you get into something advanced. Makes me wonder if you really are ready to brick that company tablet you have there. It would be a ssssssssssssssssshame (Minecraft reference)
Just I want to install cwm to my tab. I don't care what will the result be.. And I've downloaded drivers for my pc more than 1 times..

Sony Tablet S 3.2.1 (release2) Kernal Version: 2.6.3.6 [email protected] #1 Build number THMASOO124OOO can i root this? if so can you point me to the right direction? not tell me how to do it but where i can find a tutorial because i don't wanna mess it up you know thanks much appreciated
hey
as far as I know, only build #10 devices are not root able
if you want to root your tablet, enable USB-Debugging in your options,
after you have done that, go to this post, install the usb drivers, if you want to test if adb is working, start the batch file, which is located in the folder of the drivers, than type in the batch file, "adb devices", without" ", if it found devices, proceed to the next step
got to this post, download the AoI tool by condi, extract the tool, start the tool
type in "1" than press enter, wait till it's finished, exit.
congrats your tablet is rooted
I would recommend you, to also install the rescue-backdoor.
I hope that I could help you with my confusing tutorial
cheers

Update: also i googled this but i dont' quite understand the concept of rooting, i know its admin previlages but does that mean i could run apps that aren't for the tablet S in market like say ORDER AND CHOAS MMO ? ? ?

yes u can only do install rescue backdoor after the tab is rooted.
rooting in android means gaining root access. Market aka PlayShop is a place where all androids apps/games are hosted. Weather u can play on Sony Tab or other android devices are purely base on the Android version (eg: 2.3.5(GB), 3.2.1(HC), 4.0(ICS) ).
if u ever come across apps like Titanium Backup, CPU Tuner... u will need root previlages to run it because it is meddling with the Android system settings which default the tab is mainly run as a normal user. Also, with rooted android devices, u can change the wifi binary to support adhoc wifi which again, by default it is not enabled. It seems that ICS does support it thou base on the adhoc wifi functions i see.
hope this info gives u a better picture about android rooting. for apple devices u jailbreak to install free apps or freely distributed IPA files.

Hi all, I'm new in the forum.
I'm working on Motorola Xoom MZ605.
My question is....Is there any way to get root on that tablet without lost the data? and my other question is, Is possible to get temporary root?
I need to extract all the information from the tablet making a bit to bit copy but I don`t have permission to do that.
Can somebody tell me how to?

You have 3 options that I know of offhand:
1) Use a Cellebrite Forensic device. Unless you have one, it's too expensive to buy. (~$10K). I've had pretty good success with them.
2) Use Oxygen Forensics. I just bought their auto-rooting module ($3K for the toolset) a coupee weeks ago, but I've tried 3 phones and haven't gotten a bit-for-bit copy of any of the 3. I don't think it is reliable enough to recommend.
3) root the phone via an exploit that will leave a "su" command in place. Then use "adb shell" to access the phone from a PC. Then put a virgin sdcard in the phone and use dd to make a bit-for-bit copy of all the partitions.
I've been in computer forensics for 10 years and testified several times as an expert. I believe I could convince a jury that any of the above are legitimate methods, but I've yet to try method 3 for a real case.
If you truly need something that will hold up in court, I suggest you find an experienced cell phone forensic examiner and have then use a cellebrite. It's a pretty common tool among cell phone forensic experts.

Anyone know how to root a Sharp SH-02E (ICS 4.0.4)? Even a temporary root is fine, I only want to install a particular apk in /system/app.
Many thanks.
I am looking for the Sharp Aquos Zeta root also, not for me but for my friend

Tried and failed.
There's a discussion on a Japanese BBS that I think is onto something. Unfortunately there's a stupid rule here that means I can't post a link to it. The page title is '【ROM焼き】docomo AQUOS PHONE ZETA SH-02E root1' and it should be the top result on Google for 'sh-02e root'. The fun starts at post 75.
If we can just get ROOT and Custom Recovery on this device - it simply becomes the most powerful and advanced communicator in the world.. However no root - no life..
Two things:
Any luck with a custom recovery yet?
And can anyone dump the kernel and stock rom?
Happy to give it a crack...

Arrgh, this is so frustrating. You look on the 2ch thread and you can see they've done it. Temp root, MIYABI permanent root, they've done it all. The instructions aren't too hard to follow but I cannot for the life of me find the password (キーワード) required to download the files from axfc.net. If I had those files I could root the phone and post a guide here in English. For goodness sake it's staring me right there in the face and there's not a thing I can do about it. And of course because this is XDA, I can't even post you a link to the thread. It's the same thread title as earlier. You want to start from post 542 onwards, if you want a try yourself.

yes , please guide me how to root the phone permantly , thanks a lot !!
OK I've made some progress. I've got a temporary root, and am three hex numbers away from a full root. You'll need
The Sharp USB drivers, that are on Sharp's developer site.
ADB, as usual
The guide itself, which I can't like to. Post 672 on the 2ch thread.
The extra files, likewise. Post 680.
.
It's well written and pretty straightforward. Only minimal use of Google Translate will be necessary.
In the guide you'll find three lines of the form
Code:
./acdbwritevalue <address> <value>
where <address> and <value> are hexadecimal numbers.
The problem is that the guide is written for build number 01.00.05, the latest one. Unfortunetely I'm stuck on 01.00.03, so while the <value> numbers are the same, the <address> numbers are differrent, and I need to find the right ones. If you're on 01.00.05 feel free to go through the guide and share your results. Alternatively, if you know how to force the phone to update without being in Japan on Docomo, please share that too.

Thanks a lot. Luckily I came to Japan for Vacation and was able to find someone else to lend me a Usim card to update. DoCoMo are worse than Motorola, Apple and ATT when it comes to restricting your phone. Hell, I can't even use the native FM function without DoCoMo. How can Sharp expect to come out of the hole of bankruptcy when doing this sort of business? Look at the crappy Samsung company. Awful phones that everyone buys because they decided to be "untied" to companies at the beginning and for that reason they owned the market.
If Japan is really serious into getting its technological market back, better start uncopying the USA practice of enslaving their phones and tablets to telecomunication companies.
It's a shame that the best phone right now, the Sharp Aquos Zeta Sh-02e, with its awesome new screen and specs, is going to the trash as if it was a failure, just because they don't make deals with companies outside Japan.
16MPixel CAMERA!!! IGZO ultra clear screen!!! Quad Core!! 2gb Ram!! all the specs of all the other phones plus like 30 that none of them have!! A total shame, Sharp!
Find it carefully and you will find a good guy have written a script for temp root, I used the script to have my SH-02E rooted.
And, as far as I can read the topic, the unlock file is for NAND crack and may write to recovery area.
I don't test that coz of warranty, the reason I want to root is to put some message backup back(something like LINE) and remote control (VNC server for example)
And, yes, you can find the temp root solution for both 1.0.4 and 1.0.5, but no 1.0.3, good luck!

Hi rotalume
thanks for the note... can i ask a favor? i really need some help to install the SH-02E driver in windows.
tried to download the file from sharp's web, but after executing the install exe file, a bundle of unreadable signs come out, and i check my device manager, there is not SH-02E USB handler or SH-02E modem. I just want to make use of Helium (backup) to extract / restore apps and data...
thank you for your help in advance.
P.S. I guess to get the temp root script pushed to SH-02E, this driver is essential as well.
thanks again

The one you've installed is not ADB Driver, check ADB driver at developer site(I'm to young to post a link )
File name will be given as this form : usb_driver_SHARP_r6.10.zip
Download and extract, then install the driver by device manager.
And, I've used Carbon before but in vain coz of ADB driver(the author had told me), I don't know if this issue has been solved.
For the files, sorry guys, I've found someone at other forums has used them for commercial purpose(it's a shame that ppl of my country is included), so the best I can give is to tell you the clue.
You can post your question and I will do my best, but no file will be provided atm.

I was able to find and download that driver by just selecting the name you wrote and making a search on Googl. It was the very first result. thanks a lot. Although I would love the name of the script or the title of the page you downloaded it from.

Okay so I was told to come here because my phone doesn't have its' own forum yet (Not at all surprising..), so I'm just going to quote my post back on the other thread that told me to come here instead.

Okay so I've had this phone for little over 10 months now and within that time I've managed to achieve root (unreliable but it works at the very least) in that time as well as learned a fair amount about Linux and android alike (Not a whole lot but I know some stuff) though I've now come to the point of I actually want to give my phone a proper root instead of this faulty solution I have currently. I (barely) managed to get my phone rooted using Kingoroot and I've played plenty with my phones' innards in that time, removed system apps, added my own selection to the system but some apps in my phone that use root don't work even with root permission granted which is why I'm wanting to replace Kingoroot with ChainFires' SuperSU binaries, could anybody help me with simple instructions for someone who doesn't actually know very much regarding how root and SU bins work inside of android? My phone's using 4.4.2 kitkat.
Just a few disclaimers first to get misconceptions out the way:
1. I do not have a custom recovery nor is one available for my phone (Samsung galaxy young 2 (SM-S130H) for those who want to know)
2. I'm currently unable to use the internet on my phone as I lack Wi-Fi to do so (router is dead) so I'm manually installing app packages through ADB, so if something needs an internet connection on my phone it's not going to work for me, for now..PC still has net access.
3. I have access to ADB shells' SU but not ADB root so I hope you don't need that from me.
4. This phone does not have a fastboot mode. (That I can find anyway..) Only a download mode from what I've found.
Can anybody help me out with telling me what I'll need to be doing in regards to getting this done?

So, can anyone here knowledge on the matter can assist me with this instead of me having to figure it out on my own?
