[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] philosophics:
Your warranty is now void.

I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or getting flammed because you re-rooted your phone instead of your tablet because you forgot to unplug your phone from the computer while the tablet was plugged in...

Please do some research if you have any concerns about rooting your device! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

Ok, this was a pain in the arse!

I hope I can remember the steps I took in order to get this done.

By the way, I'm using windows

Then I went to here as directed,

http://rkeene.org/projects/info/wiki/210

but didn't follow the steps as they were shown because I got stuck many times and had to start over.

So here are my steps.

1.

which then should turn the $ into a #

2.

3. Download this,

http://www.rkeene.org/projects/info/resources/diatribes/root-toshiba-thrive/busybox

and then move the file to where you have mempodroid and su so you can adb push them easier

4.

5. This is where it got tricky. If you don't pay close attention, you will most likely do what I did and put files where they aren't supposed to go. So please, PAY ATTENTION!

If you still have the # in the shell, move forward. Otherwise,

and then move forward once # is confirmed.

Now, there is no doubting it, you will get the "bash: precmd: not found" error.

6. AGAIN, PAY CLOSE ATTENTION HERE!!

7. This is where I ran into another problem, so pay attention.

You will see nothing as the steps describe. This is because we skipped a step. Why? Because mount -o ro -t ext4 /dev/loop0 /dev/tmpdir for some strange reason wouldn't unmount so I could mount the next step. So instead, we move on and then check again.

Here is the removed step

You can try this but I advise not to or you could very well run into the same issue I had where you can't unmount in order to move on with the root process

And now you will see /system mounted.

8.

9. Now once your A200 reboot and displays the home screen, we will confirm.

If the $ doesn't turn into a #, you did something wrong...

Thank you hexmare, for opening this thread and giving the guidance.

Thank you d10369319, for "/data/local/mempodroid 0xd9f0 0xaf47 sh", I would have never figured this out.

Thank you RKeene, for writing out the guide to Root the Toshiba Thrive

And Thank you Saurik along with zx2c4, for mempodroid
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] philosophics:
Ok, for some reason, /system still refuses to mount with "mount -o remount,rw /system"

So my solution is this,

You will have to go to /dev/tmpdir in order to do anything with /system but it is the secret passage way for now...

Enjoy your ICS A200 owners. I just saw a tweet from AcerAmerica that ICS is being rolling out to A200
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Doume59249:
Hello to all,

My A200 has been upgraded today 'OTA' , to ICS (V: 4.0.3) , so Europe/France seems to be available, now.

Applying this procedure, all goes fine, and my A200 is rooted.

I'm very happy

A lot of thanks to people having discovered this procedure, particularly mempodroid which set all of this possible.

Greetings

the last time when you do losetup -d /dev/loop0

ive been through it twice now

*EDIT* Nevermind I figured out my problem...I was typing in reboot instead of using the hardware power button. Got root now, sweet!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Semetery:
I am sooo glad we can now root the a200, but I cannot get mine to work. I have went through the steps 3+ times and had issues each time. I thought I had it twice and then tried Titanium backup root and it said it didn't work.

I can't see at all where I've gone wrong..

ran into a mounting issue

i was attempting to root my A200 with the OTA ICS

first attempt i ran into an issue were i am unable to mount

# mount -t ext4 /dev/loop0 /dev/tmpdir

mount: invalid argument

so i then replaced ext4 to EXT4 and i then received error

# mount -t EXT4 /dev/loop0 /dev/tmpdir

mount: No such device

You have to follow the guide to the T or you will run into numerous problems and stop signs. Try again
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] philosophics:
That's because we don't have a custom kernel yet. Just wait a little while.

Unfortunate the root isn't 100% cool my boot loader Is unlocked though.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shwilson24:
su file?

This may be a stupid question, but where does one get the su file they're supposed to push to the tablet in the first step? I searched and searched, and finally found one that I downloaded, but when I tried this method with that su file, everything seems to work perfectly, but when I reboot and type su I get a segmentation fault. This is feels like something everyone knows but me, because every guide I can find that has anything to do with rooting from adb it seems the possession of an the su file is just assumed.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] daimerion:
Did u use reboot command or the power button on the tab? It only worked for me when I used the power button to turn off then on
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shwilson24:

successful root on A200 by clicking one button!

I used this program to root my A200. I am using the ota rom 4.0.3. Everything is working perfectly. Used root checker to verify that i had root and it confirms it. superuser is installed and all looks well. I plugged usb into the a200, launched the program, left all settings as default ,made sure that debugging was enabled and the tablet was on and awake. It was looking for an a500 the whole time and said it wasn't connected but i clicked do it and everything ran perfectly and now i am rooted. I had to install some crap software to get it from this advertising site but now i have it on my ftp. I have been looking for a really simple way to root my a200 ever since i got it. here it is!!

I'm trying to determine my CID & MID based on this firmware thread

Using Terminal Emulator and the commands:

I get blank entries after each getprop command. What does this mean and how can I get determine CID.

I'm running S-OFF,

kay I got it.

I just SuperCID'd instead. Problem solved for good
[HTC Sensation] Squirrels:
disregard, wrong tab. >.<
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
Cool, but just so you know... getprop seems to read off the build.prop of the ROM. To properly retrieve your cid and mid:

fastboot getvar cid

and

fastboot getvar mid

...while in hboot.
[HTC Sensation] Maher88:
Try This "getprop ro.boot.cid" :)

works for me
[HTC Sensation] KGraivesOwO:
You don't need the su. It won't work if you run the command as su. (my guess is that su makes you a different user, which prevents you from seeing the buildprop)

I wrote a post on this here:

[Acer Iconia A500] ibawanzingee:
This has happened to me maybe two or three times now, but I want to just focus on this time it's happening right now:

I installed the Villain kernel on 3.2.1 stock rooted rom, overclocked to 1.504GHz. Initially, the scrolling in landscape was as smooth as butter, but over the past few days it's become slightly choppy, and it's really bothering me, because I know I might have done something to mess this up. My question is, how do I fix this and make it so it has unbelieveably smooth scrolling again (just like when you pull it out of the box)? I think it's one of any number of things, really. It could be that I'm using cachemate, system panel pro, that I've used autostarts to stop a ton of applications from running at start up.

I just removed all of my game icons from the 2nd page (I only have two pages) and the scrolling didn't speed up, so it's not that.

Is there a a system app that relates to the scrolling that I might have disabled because it had a name that maybe I thought I could disable in autostarts?

Thanks for any help!
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
Stopping apps from autostart does not guarantee a performance improvement. This is not Windows and unused RAM is lost RAM. You're using more CPU power to kill constantly autostarting apps and services thus you're draining your battery faster. If a program resides in memory it still doesn't mean it does something. As an example, there were ROMs for HD2 that were developed to load completely in its RAM for superfast performance and yet battery life was still excellent. There might be apps that behave intrusive but that's not the majority of the cases. Try to isolate them with a tool like SystemPannel but first read its description @ the Market. Additionally try freezing with Titanium backup some of the apps you're definitely not using. Hope this helps.

p. s. Try switching from interactive to ondemand governor.

no, to get into blue light mode you need to power on while holding in the trackball. some how you must have a sticky trackball. and being that i know of no other way to enter blue light mode i suggest trying to clean your trackball with a q-tip and a little rubbing alchohal, just roll it around. then use a can of spray air to dry it up, hopefully all is well...

Anyone else getting a Kernel Panic Upload Mode occasionally on the new FB17?

I can't seem to replicate it, but I have been playing around with it pretty heavily (reinstalling all the apps I lost blah blah blah), just wanted to know if i'm the only one in this, and if anyone found the root of its cause? Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
I've seen other people post pictures of their phone in panic mode, so there are others seeing it also.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] No_Nickname90:
I got it too. I thought I was the only one. I actually came here to ask about it. It seemed related to my battery being hot.

I don't know what triggers it. It happened quite often. I had Battery Gauge installed, as usual, to keep an eye out for my battery temperature, and it was about 140 F degrees.

I'm guessing it has something to do with over heating? Also my battery was dying UBER fast. Lyk 40% in 1 hour.

I did a restore back to my Blazer ROM 3.9 and I still had the Kernel Panic mode thing pop up. I have my battery out letting it cool. I hope that fixes the problem.

I ve installed ddla5 yesterday with mobile odin pro yesterday with permenent root.No probs at all. The major differance i observed is the loudness of sound has increased a bit while playing movies or music or voice calls i felt the difference.rest is the same.

For those who want to root their phones for the first time i suggest try the cason hongkong stock Rom through odin.coz it wont give u yellow triangle.it has no built in cwm but it has superuser.Then install mobile odin pro from the Market.[mod edit - removal of warez suggestion] Then install cf root kk n u can install what ever rom.

I tried all the stock n custom roms.i liked rocket rom 22 xxla6 then added ics theme 1.61 to it,which is looking n working like magic.i m juz lovin it.

You can also try kingdroid which is equally good.

I m giving a try for ddla5. If not for the minor increase inthe sound quality i would prefer rocket 22 rom.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
DDLA5 is nonwipe version, so you wont lose data. but it is always good to have backup of your data, in case of anything happen worse.

If you update using Mobile Odin - select 'everroot' (including all four sub field) enable

If you using CWM - select to 'Keep CF Root' when ask

To keep your Root Intact.

Thats a lot of stuff to backup! And that doesn't show everything on the emmc I don't think.

Is there a way to back up the emmc in one go?

Now backing up the emmc takes care of most of the stuff, but does the emmc contain

the bootloader? or the baseband/radio firmware? Or the radio settings?
