stuck...

Ok so i went through with the instructions and got temp root.

got confused and ended up exit temp root inorder to copy over the cmw file. Not sure why this wasn't a step before running temp root.

either way. so i ended up having to rm boomsh and sh from local/data/tmp

now the issue is it doesn't get past this step.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] joeshmoe1980:
interesting developement

ok nice. so here is what happened to me.

so i went to

adb shell

rm /data/local/tmp/boomsh

rm /data/local/tmp/sh

rm /data/local/gingerbreakBB

rm /data/local/CWM_BLOB_V5

exit

i then took out microsd reformatted it

put microsd 2gb card back in transform then verified it was read

then went back to command prompt started as admin

adb push gingerbreakBB /data/local/

adb push CWM_BLOB_V5 /data/local/

(i verified before hand using a free md5sum check on my win7 netbook)

then ran:

adb shell

/data/local/gingerbreakBB

and like magic it worked again.

i'm guessing it's an issue with the microsd card. try formatting it again and when you plug it back in make sure your transform recognizes it.

i will continue with rooting it and flashing the custom bootloader and let you know what happends
[Eee Pad Transformer General] joeshmoe1980:
yay!!!

Ok so one more thing.

when the guide tells you to reboot. i recommend if you are in shell to simply type reboot.

also when you are not in shell type adb shell reboot

and it will reboot your transform with out having to fiddle with buttons.

really cool stuff.

let me know if you get yours working.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lithiasalesjs:
Will this work on ota 0423 thanks, monsterandroid
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dictionary:
Do a 10 second search lol. Yes this will work
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lithiasalesjs:
Thanks Dictionary ... ended up finding it after i wrote that ^_^ ... Also another question after the root will the new Prime 1.2 work with 0423 root ? Thanks again. Couldn't find that
[Eee Pad Transformer General] seshmaru:
Yes, yes, and yes, everything will work with every root.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gigdesigns:
I managed to get temproot and the # prompt. I checked md5 and everything fine.

Now I've run the 'dd if=/data/local/CWM_BLOB_V4 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4' command and nothing happens afterwards...

Does this command produce any output or does it take a while?

Anyone got a record of what happens when this command is run?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Crimton:
If you're using blob v5 make sure you change the command
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gigdesigns:
I spotted my mistake doing the temp root. I was trying to run gingerbreak via adb shell as one command when I should have first run adb shell and then the gingerbreak command from within the shell.

Root now working.

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Crimton:
common mistake
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lionclaw:
I did a backup via CWM after rooting. The clockworkmod folder on my microsd card is ~350MB and is the only thing on the microsd. However, the card is now showing ~4GB of the 16GB card now being used.

Anyone have any ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lordgodgeneral:
CWM currently backs up EVERYTHING on the internal SD card. This includes any app downloaded content, any media, anything on the internal card. I know I have kept everything off the internal card I can and my backups are ~ 2 GB each in size.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Crimton:
this happens to my sd cards all the time. just copy the contents to a folder on your computer then format the card either with your computer or an android device and put the contents back in. i have to do this every so often as space always ends up used but unaccounted for.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tybalt:
I have this same issue. Anyone else have this problem?

Have I done something wrong during the steps possibly?

Could someone else try and run Titanium Backup and confirm it works?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] smelian:
What is blob for ? I made root by using blob 4 and now 5 released so what its for and what the different between 4 and 5
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lordgodgeneral:
Did you set the permission correctly on SU? I know this was causing me quite a headache till I figured it out.

chmod 06755 /system/bin/su

thats what I had to use to get SU working. Then in Titanium Backup, have it download and install busybox..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Canadoc:
Hi there I have some noob questions.

1) Is anyone working on an easy 1 click style root/unroot method a la gingerbreak on iconia tab?

2) if no to above, can someone post a video walkthru on how to root?

3) can one unroot this back to stock if one decides to return the device, and if so how?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] skeeterpro:
+1 to candadoc

I've read thru most (if not all) the rooting threads here and, quite honestly, am a bit skittish. Have rooted a few NCs and GTab so not completely unfamiliar with process but some of the horror stories have made me a bit leery. Have ADB working so am prepared but something along the lines of Autonooter or ManualNooter sure would be welcome.

Perhaps with more TFs coming to market, more devs and experienced users will be getting their hands on TFs. A good thing!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] quailallstar:
So I opened my new Transformer and want to root. System is currently 8.2.3.9-20110423 and I am confused as to which blob I need; is it v.4 or v.5?

The tablet prompted me for an update and I declined because I read that the version I'm on now is the latest firmware that is rootable.

Many thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kiros11:
You need v.5

Kiros
[Eee Pad Transformer General] quailallstar:
Awesome! Thank you so much :) Gave you a thanks..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lawrencel:
my Transformer is on version HRI66.TW_epad-8.2.3.13-20110511, would this guide work?

I tried the process a few times, but all stuck at the "[*] vold: 0000 GOT start: 0x00017368 GOT end: 0x000175e8".. also referred to some of the posts in this thread and rm tmp files and stuff but still no luck and stuck in the same place.

Any idea guys?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kiros11:
Tried last night for a few hours with no, then finally realized I was one of the 'lucky' ones to get 8.2.3.13 OTA. Has anyone seen a root solution for that yet? Thanks!

Kiros
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lawrencel:
crap... no wonder it doesn't work on mine too.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lordgodgeneral:
Need to downgrade then you can root.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lawrencel:
how to downgrade???
[Eee Pad Transformer General] 3DSammy:
This link has both instructions and old ROMs. The upgrade process is the same as a down grade.

http://www.samsung-tablets.com/asus...mware-update-download-and-install-guide.html/

This links includes the old "rootable" ROM links.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lawrencel:
Thanks! Will give it a go!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lawrencel:
tried that a few times.. followed instruction and extracted the ASUS folder to a micro SD (tried both FAT32 and NTFS).. did not do what the instruction said, it can see the SD card and the file but does not execute the update. help~~
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lawrencel:
OK finally get that to work... firstly my SKU is TW so WW won't work to start with, then the card has to be formatted in FAT32, NTFS won't work. After getting pass these two issues now I am in the downgrade process.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] MarkF001:
I am running us-.9 rooted. Is this a "permaroot", ie update to .13 won't kill root? If not, have any chefs, torn .13 down; and rebuilt it with root access. Sure I'd like CWM, but I can live with "just" root.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
I root and install CWM don .9 I update to .13 using the Hr5 by Paul@modaco.

It's a rooted ROM
[Eee Pad Transformer General] skeeterpro:
Think I have my arms around rooting, downgrading, ADB, etc. One last thing is throwing me a bit. md5sums. I snagged the exe (pc-tools). I've placed requested files in the platform-tols folder along with the CWM_Blob v_5. Where would the md5sum tool go? Same folder?

Just prepping. Looking forward to the experience!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Yes md5sum checker tool in same folder
[Eee Pad Transformer General] skeeterpro:
By Jove, I think I got it! That Superuser is now in my Apps means I done did it? :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Yes now follow the last part to install the cwm recovery
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AngryDinosaur:
what is adb??????

is it necessary?????

is there a video on how to set that up?????
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jhanford:
ADB = Android Debug Bridge. It's a tool that allows you to issue commands on an Android device while it's connected to your PC or Mac

It is ABSOLUTELY necessary for gaining root on the ASUS Transformer.

It's part of the Android SDK (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html). There are a number of documents in this forum that explain how to get it and what to do with it.

I suggest you read those thoroughly before attempting it yourself.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speig:
The Email app rsp. the accounts settings in Wolfbreaks 6.1.3 CM ROM didn't support connection to my company's echange server.

i solved this, after searching google :), by pulling the generic email.apk from an sdk 2.2 emulator and replacing the one on the phone.

this worked nicely!

for anyone interested, here it is. (just the zipped apk, use adb push to /system/app)

USB debugging is on and I dont need the drivers because I am on mac, and it worked before, I cant even go back to stock, because the pc either, cannot find the phone. I have no warrenty because I bought it from Ebay, Help?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aryn.galadar:
Assuming that you have the USB settings set to "Mass Storage":

After you connect it to the computer, you need to pull down the notification bar and select "Select to copy files to/from your computer", then follow the directions from there.

Which USB port are you connected to? Mine was flaky using the front USB ports on my computer. I moved my cable to the back of the computer and connected to a port directly off the MB. Since then, I haven't had a single problem. Just something to consider.

Hiya guys,

I'm watching this forum since I heard of the SGS II a month ago, but I haven't seen any release date for the Netherlands.

Any one already knows this? Or do we just have to wait?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II General] nl1010:
Hi, I ordered a SGS2 (at studentmobiel.nl) and it will be delivered in week 19.

There are more shops with this delivery date of week 19, so 9-13 may.

It will cost €499,- and €6,- of deliverycosts.

This will be the 16GB version. but with or without NFC, I don't know.

* Dit is de datum wanneer de product(en) bij ons verstuurd worden. Deze datum is pas definitief als u een verzendbevestiging per email heeft ontvangen.

De door u bestelde producten staan op dit moment in bestelling bij de leverancier. De verwachting is dat deze 06-05-2011 binnen zullen komen. Deze producten zullen dezelfde dag verstuurd worden.

[Galaxy S II General] nl1010:
Hmm, a bit cheaper, but the deliverytime will practically be the same.

I think this is the general starting delivery date for NL.

studentmobiel.nl was the first with advertising, so I directly ordered and payed, so that I will be one of the first having the SGS2. :D (also Arnhem)

What are the reasons to get an unlocked phone, instead of one with a contract?

Only two things I can think of is not being bound to a contract, and ur abel to switch phones fast and easy(although this won't be fast with this phone, cause it rocks)

Cheers
[Galaxy S II General] El Salvador:
I also preordered there but I got it with a 2yr contract.

Btw did you already subscribed for the 8GB card? I'm not sure whether or not I can do it now already as you need an invoice and I don't have a real invoice yet. Only some confirmation emails.
[Galaxy S II General] El Salvador:
Or in case people have a contract already and need a new phone.

In all cases, you pay much more compared to buying a phone /w contract. Usually I stick with a phone and a 2yrs contract. This way it only costs me around 300-350 euro a year instead of 600+ when you use 1yr contracts. I think walking around with the same phone for 2yrs is pretty much doable ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Vuuyi:
My thoughts exactly! A contract it is then!

Anyone have any idea if this will possibly help with the crazy (hacked) FFC support? Boy Genius Report - Android 2.3.4
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InGeNeTiCs:
First, this should be in the general section.

Second, google is going to fix the FFC problem by making gtalk the go-to videochat app. Everyone has it on their android devices, but nobody uses it. It would appear they're trying to make the out of the box experience better by integrating software that will work with the hardware rather than relying on third parties like oovoo, qik, or fring.
