So my LG broke. In the meantime until i get a new proper phone, i bought a cheap off-brand android phone. However, when attempting to root it, i bootlooped it, and like an idiot; i realised i forgot to make any backups of any partitions. So my question is, are there any universal versions of android i can flash over using the abd that will make the phone work again?
Thanks
No each kernel for the device is built just for it. You will need to stock room from the oem. Good luck as normally it is not available
Alba
I have an alba 10" ac101cplv2 and have successfully rooted it with super su but can't seem to find a custom ROM for it. Would like to install twrp but unable to find a version for my tablet. I'm hoping that someone could point me in the right direction. Just a cheap tablet I know but would like to open it to new possibilities like using SD card as storage for apps like have done with my s5 mini that runs beanstalk 7.1.2.
Can not root Alba 5
Does anyone know how to root Alba 5, i'am finding it really difficult. It is on Marshmallow 6.0 i have tried many rooting apps and have attempted to root through pc and through the phones recovery mode. Also when i go in to recovery mode a broken android logo comes up and it says something in chinese under it. The phone still works perfectly fine would really appreciate some help thanks.

I recently received a Kuno Tablet. It has the same physical characteristics as the 10.1 except for the lack of a hdmi out. Its running android 2.3.1 with a 1.2ghz processor. I have been trying to find some way to root this tablet for a few days now and have had no luck whatsoever. As far as I know no one else has even attempted to root one of these. Help of any kind would be appreciated and I will do my best to answer any questions. I am considering trying petes root tools or gingerbreak but i have my doubts that this will work. I have tried to put the device into some sort of recovery mode but have had no luck so far with any of the button combinations I tried.
Hi xsurferx,
the Kuno really looks like the Archos 101... the chinese engineers are incredible.
Under the hood there's different hardware working.
The manufacturers website mentions a [email protected]
http://mykuno.com/kuno-specs.html
Due to this fact there's nothing in common with the way Archos created the firmware on the A101 and the way you could root this device.
You could try to find out how the firmware looks like on your Kuno... but i guess this is not the right place to discuss these things.
Anyway, good luck!

Progress
Any progress on trying to root the Kuno tablet? Superoneclick says that it roots it successfully but Superuser does not get installed. Is there at least a way to flash Gapps onto it? I can't even set up a gmail account unless I use the IMAP settings
super one clicks havent worked for me yet either however, i do work for the high school that i attend on their tablets and anything else they need done, through contact with the company that created the tablets ive learned that the tablet does not have a recovery mode and that the tablets actually have to be imaged like a computer would. So once i get my hands on an image i should be able to modify it to allow root access. If that fails im going to try rooting it through adb and installing superuser that way as well
what shcool has the funds to buy tablets like that?
So you just help them>?
lots of them
Many schools are going to one to one devices to try and help students learn and while they are expensive most of it is payed for by grants and other funds. I do anything they need from pc to mac and android. The tablets will be given out to freshman this coming semester and they want to see just how locked down these are and im assuming that rooting them will be the first step to unlocking them from the cirruculumloft software they are using. They want to see how to unlock them so they can prevent it in the future. Which is where i come in.
Status...
The kuno tablet has a recovery system that can only be accessed by flashing a new firmware to it, however, it is not possible to get this firmware without getting it from the company that made the tablet. So...in order to root the tablet you have to create a custom firmware from scratch for the tablet because the firmware on the tablet was designed in such a way that the android market can not run on it. The company removed the directories and other items the market needs to run. You can not connect the tablet through adb, nor can you install from SD or even access the SD card from inside the firmware the tablets are currently running. In order to root this tablet we would need to create a custom firmware and then flash it onto the tablet. Anyone interested in trying? Also, super one clicks will brick the device, I'm surprised yours still worked after that.
new discoveries
The market will run on the tablet, i was lied to on that one. The tablet connects through adb very easily and most commands work in adb. unfortunately you can not reboot into recovery or the boot loader through adb
unrevoked won't find my tablet. what do i do now?

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=unrevoked+won't+find+my+kuno+tablet,+What+now?
I work for a company that will be selling these Kuno tablets to schools. A CurriculumLoft Employee told me these tablets are not approved by Google so that makes them not able to use the android market. I have found that these can use the Amazon App market.
Figured it out!!!
After working on this for the better part of 6 months i have finally achieved root and flashed a custom rom with CWM recovery installed. I found that the Kuno tablet is essentially the same as the Arnova 10 G2 tablet with the exception of hard drive size. Here is the link to the site and instructions i used to flash the rom. If any one has any questions let me know.

HELP
Hello. Questions, what is adb and i've found a site called blapkmarket.com which lets you download apps if you have firefor installed on your kuno. But my firefox browser crashed so i unistalled it and i cant download apps anymore. My last resort is to reset my Kuno completely and take it to my media specialist. any suggestions ??

xsurferx is no longer working on this project. He doesn't have a kuno 3 and recommends you don't try the above method, as it is not for a kuno 3.
I just got a dopo 7" tablet from a relative and for the life of me cannot get it to root. I have been at it since 3-4pm (its 11:10 now) and no matter what
apk or .bat rootkit, or windows root exe i have tried from old guides and some new ("can root ANY android device 2014!!!") to youtube videos.
Yes I have the correct driver thanks to vroot downloading it.
i have unknown sources checked
debugging checked
tablet never sleeps/screen never shuts off
have it plugged into laptop via the cable the tablet came with usb to micro
root master apk failed
suggested root-rk29 tab rootkit each step it tried it could not find any of the necessary files needed on my tablet
(even after 3 restarts and 3 different methods)
vroot will try to restore data like the programs steps shows but as soon as it says restore started it immediately says restore ended and it gives an X in the circle and wants me to retry (tried 4 times)
tried doomlordz v4 rootkit and same as other rootkit it says the files arnt found and does the alternative methods and SAYS its completed but root checker still says its not
tried key root master mentions something about a cloud program but never roots
superoneclick becomes unresponsive for 20mins and does nothing so i have to end task (some says it freezes their phone/tablet) but my tablet acts like nothing is happening
I have tried googling multiple times only to find results related to 9" version (i assume newer)
So if ANYone knows a 95% guaranteed program/guide or something I would very much like to see it cause I have about reached my limit of patience on this thing
Please keep the guide simple as I have 0 knowledge on rooting other than reading up why I would want it or the common steps which did not work obviously...
What version of android does it have, 4.1.1 or 4.2.2? I have the same tablet and have been trying for about 6 weeks to root it. Mine came with 4.2.2. I have read that the 4.1.1 version has been successfully rooted. First off, you said that root master suggested root-rk29 tab but it wouldn't work. The reason is that rk29 is for a rockchip SoC and the em63 has an amlogic 8726-mx SoC. I have tried just about every root method I can find, both manual, oneclick, apk, and Windows scripts with no luck. I am hesitant to try modifying some of the methods because if something goes wrong chances of recovering aren't good. As far as I know, there's no way to create a backup of the firmware without root. I have talked with tech support at DoPo and to get a copy of the firmware I have to send in a microsd and they will put a copy on it. Of course after rooting the warranty will be void and I will no longer be able to receive support, but I'm not too concerned with that. Anyway, for now it looks like the best shot I have at rooting this thing is to modify the firmware and flash it. When I get a copy of the Rom I'd be happy to give you a copy. If you find a way in the meantime to root it please let me know.
If anyone else has any ideas or if someone with the 4.1.1 firmware could provide a copy I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

yup 4.2.2 so in the end till i see a working method im giving this 1 to my younger sibling and getting the nexus 7... hopefully itll be an easier and less stressful time. hope you get it to work.
I figured it was the updated version. They seem to have patched the updated version so most root methods won't work. It's good from a security standpoint, but I wish they would provide a way to root if that's what you want to do. It's a tablet, not a phone so locking it into one provider isn't an issue. Anyway, I'm sure you'll be happy with the nexus 7. That's what I have and I'm very happy with it. There's tons of support and custom roms. Rooting it is super easy too. I used wug's toolkit and I had it rooted, did a nandroid backup and installed twrp recovery in about 30 min. If you do happen to root the em63, or get a copy of the 4.1.1 Rom, please let me know. If anyone else has any ideas, or anything, please post. Thanks.
Hope this helps! I got it!
I hope this helps the EM63 users!

I was able to root my Gigabyte em63 with Root Genius with no problems.
I'm trying to find if anyone has a rom or if someone has gotten twrp for this model. My internal memory became unmounted or something because my total space is 0bytes making it impossible to do anything. Boots up in factory everytime and I can't install any apps.
Anyone have any luck?

Envizen has the stock firmware for the EM63 posted on there site. I don't know if it will work on the Gigabyte branded tablet but it does work for the Apex branded one without a problem. Just Google search for the Envision website and look for the EM63.
I've recently picked one of these up and I have to say it's a great tablet for the price. However, I found that there's not a lot of support for this tablet as of yet. After rooting and customizing it, I'd accidentally screwed up the install and am now trying to find a way to flash it back to stock.
Is there anyway to fix this since there doesn't seem to be any stock files or custom ROMs available? I downloaded the firmware off of the official site, but have unsuccessfully flashed it using their tool.
Any help would be appreciated.
I don't think E-Fun/Nextbook has any firmware on their site for the Ares 8. I just looked and all I see are files for the Nextbook 7 and Nextbook 8--these are different models than the Ares 8. I have to assume that you didn't make a nandroid backup immediately after you rooted it and installed TWRP? Anyone else reading this would be wise to not repeat that error.
I wish I could offer some actual help, but unfortunately I cannot. Like you, I'm really hoping that some kind hearted dev sees fit to release a ROM for this tablet. It sure has potential.
Oops, you're right. I read the wrong firmware. I guess for now I'll try and install Ubuntu, etc. until a rom comes out. =/
Okay, well i got this cheap phone for boost mobile, but the stock firmware takes 4gigs of already small amount of 8 gigs. I want a custom rom and I CANNNTTT find one at all! I saw some threads on how to root it, so I'm sure I wont have a problem there, but seriously there is nothing out there rom wise. Can anyone help me?
anyone know anything??
should i just give up?

I'd be real careful about following the directions out there all the way to the end. a train phone technician informed me back simply using Philz recovery image which a number of those directions suggest that you do after you download kingroot Flashify could break your phone. I've got the same phone and the same problem there is nobody working on volt2 anything that I have found yet. I tried running super SU me which temporarily rooted my phone but it didn't last long after I removed it. you can't install TWRP recovery or ClockworkMod without having a recovery image to flash so I am busy working on creating a recovery image for the LG Volt 2 that's the missing piece of the puzzle. Otherwise I am pretty happy with kingroot and purify which allow you to shut down everything you don't want running and uninstall quite a bit. together you at least get root access for Battery Doctor and Ron toolbox Pro which will allow you a whole lot more control over what runs and what doesn't. I know my battery lasts a whole lot longer since I touched that combination of tools onto my phone and removed all of that bloatware... Be careful purify identifies symptoms of bloatware that you may not want to remove. please say something if you find a Volt 2 recovery image so that we can install TWRP or ClockworkMod recovery what you really want before you experiment with a new mod. Good luck
Possible LG LS751 Volt 2 Stock Recovery.img
I came across a possible stock recovery for the LG LS751 Volt 2. I am in no way able to verify if the file is legit or correct and complete. If this is still a file that you need, let me know and I'll get it to you. I also have a copy of one of the Updates that was pushed to device also.
Hello,
i know there is plenty of this kind of threads. But i really need simple guideline , already tested way to root this device. I have rooted couple phones, (note3, sonyz3, galaxy s4, etc), but never this model before, or any model where i have to touch the bootlocker.
So, this is now new to me and looks like there is too many way to do that, and it´s confusing. This girls is on fire, at least my brain are
The phone is my 12 years daughters phone, and my son has also this phone, and the internal memory is straight from a...
So i assume, only way to solve this is root the phone and use the external memory as internal memory, right?
And what about this, have you tried this, is it valid way ?
(Tried to put url, but i am newbie, so i can´t, but what i ment is one click root, is it even possible)?
Anyway, can someone please give me a hand and tell me easiest way. The way which working and tested
I´ll appreciate this very much.
Have a nice monday all of you.

this is a good tutorial https://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-touch-t3247939 for unlocking bootloader and flashing recovery
but rooting with an old version of su, you need to search for the newer su version, and beware, do not update su from Play Store
one more thing, you didn't mention Android version of your devices, settings-> about phone
for root you need a specific way for Android version Lollipop or Marshmallow
