[General Questions and Answers] wehrd1:
before I signed up for an account, i found your site because I'm looking to root my Toshiba Excite 10.

when i wasn't a member, i kept seeing this Ad posted on every page of this thread.

of course you would have to type the 4letters & : in front of this...

//root-android.org/?gclid=CIeDjqPe7bUCFYtaMgodcXcADA

does it work?? is it CRAP? for $30, i'm willing to give it a try if an admin or mod on this site would confirm it's LEGIT

I would hope this site wouldn't allow some hacker to advert on it.

Thanks!

We can unlock our phones (a device) now but Toshiba won't unlock their tablets? This doesn't add up..
[General Questions and Answers] Rooks:
Toshiba tablets still have bootloader unlocked (at least AT300 and AT300SE as per my knowledge).

So we'll have to wait for someone to:

1- Unlock bootloader for Excite series

2- Provide with custom recovery (like Clockworkmod Recovery or TWRP) for Toshiba tablets

3- Provide a custom kernel

So let's hope some day.........................................

We'll have them and root our tablets.

Until then.............................................................

We'll have to wait.

I don't think it will not help. Toshiba will ignore this. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and Toshiba calling me. They basically said that they will not support any software modification by the customers.

You know what's funny? Now that PPTP is basically being closed down everywhere you can think, I have to keep mine open because Toshiba is not rooted and I can't run OpenVPN. Pfft!!!

I gave it to my son as a game tablet. Its pretty strong for that... That's about the only good thing about it! I have a chinese AM970 tablet running ICS (no ROM for it but it's rooted) and I use it more often than the Toshiba! And cost me 1/2 the price! Bleh..

[General Questions and Answers] pio_masaki:
Motochopper does work for SE models, but does not work past temp shell root for all other excite models, for whatever reason the SE has no sealime.ko loaded, so system r/w is possible, the AT300 and other models still have sealime.ko loaded after updating to JB, so either Toshiba made a mistake and it was left out of the ramdisk, or they intentionally left sealime inactive and any Excite users wanting root will need to repurchase an Excite from them.

I've contacted them about issuing an update for all non SE models to also have sealime.ko disabled. I'll probably be ignored, as everyone else has, I mean its literally a 2 minute change, I've done it myself, remove 1 line from init.rc, pack it up, done.

For those with the SE that are failing to gain root, its not 100%, if it fails to gain root, reboot, and try again. You'll also need to be on JB, its FB exploit isn't available on the ICS kernels.

For now I'm still tinkering with various ways around sealime.ko until the kernel source gets here.

Nope, sealime won't unload without -f which the kernel wasn't built with for obvious reasons. Modprobe might work but breaks with busybox not being in xbin/bin, may be a way to fix that, haven't looked at it yet.

[General Questions and Answers] Trotsky123:
Any chance this root would work on the at330? It would be really nice since the excite 13 is the largest tablet on the market and is unique in that respect.
[General Questions and Answers] m4f1050:
I am guessing you are on the same boat... That tablet might as well have the same issue (sealime)
[General Questions and Answers] Wuestengecko:
I guess if we could make the 305 unload sealime, we could also do this with the 300. At least I hope this, since I also have a 300 ;)

So, because our stock kernel loves sealime and doesn't want to let it go, we would need another kernel with the "force module unload" config flag. Can't we read out the kernel image of the stock rom, strip out the build configuration, add this one flag and recompile it to reboot into that kernel? I guess I oversaw a tiny detail, because nobody tried it yet.
[General Questions and Answers] m4f1050:
Someone already tried, they can't get it to boot after recompiling it. If you search google you will find the thread..
[General Questions and Answers] Wuestengecko:
Here are some other naive and potentially already-tried approaches to the problem:

We're still stuck with sealime blocking write access to the system partition. Someone (can't remember the name, sorry) stated earlier that modprobe might work, but currently fails because it cannot be placed in /system/xbin - this would require to unload sealime first.

I don't know how exactly sealime blocks writing, but

a) would it be possible to bind-mount the system partition somewhere else and inject a su binary?

b) what about a "virtual" system partition made of a UnionFS (or other similar) with the original system partition underlying, where the driver projects the modprobe binary from somewhere else on top? This might work to trick the kernel into thinking that modprobe is in /system/xbin and allowing it to unload sealime. (I can't imagine this could work, because modprobe uses the same kernel methods as rmmod does, doesn't it?)

An at300 with fastboot? I didn't know that was ever an option since the boot loader is locked. AT300 or AT300SE? Only the SE can be fully rooted right now.
[General Questions and Answers] valdeviesonoah:
I already root AT300 using motochopper, but I'm not contented, Im also try to use DaleNet-Thrive_Universal_Easy_Flash_Tool-v2.8.1

but because i want to put a clockworkmode on my tab,. and know I really disapointed what I have done,.

do you have idea how to flash stock rom of AT300SE?,.

Thanks for response,.
[General Questions and Answers] pio_masaki:
Well for starters, stop flashing tools for other devices that's a surefire way to brick if it flashes that recovery, the partitions are all wrong in it, who knows what will get overwritten.

Second, there is no way to restore the stock image, if you damaged it somehow from modifying /system then you'll need to reverse them via adb or send it to Toshiba for repair. Or possibly wait for an update and attempt to apply it.

There is no custom recovery. There is no custom kernel. There is no custom ROM. The boot loader is locked and until that changes then that stuff will not be an option.

BTW the method that tool uses for ICS and HC won't work on the excite with 4.1, they patched the method we found long before we found it.

Where is Toshiba with all this?

Almost purchased a refurbished Toshiba Excite AT305 today until I started searching for a way to root it. Looks like you guys been working real hard on it and this seems to be the most up to date activity on the topic. The price is really really a sweet deal but I will not purchase anything unless I can hack it. ****, anyone figure out anything on this issue? And I cannot figure out why Toshiba isn't right in the middle of this helping out? THanks!
[General Questions and Answers] pio_masaki:
They focused more on business and not repairing bricked devices, they locked it with no intention of allowing anyone to gain root, they won't ever help us get root or unlock the bootloader. Toshiba has done it from the very beginning of their android tablets and continue to with their newest.

Root AT300?

It has occurred to me that using adb sideload it might be possible to root the AT300, as it would be loaded before SLIME, am I missing something here?

as in adb sideload slimekiller.apk

at the very least might it be possible to pull a rom image?
[General Questions and Answers] pio_masaki:
Sealime isn't an app its a kernel module in the boot.img itself, not on the system partition like usual. Bootloader also sig checks so a custom recovery can't be installed yet so she can't flash anything not sequential and from Toshiba, so while she can side load, we can only side load a Toshiba update that's next in line.

We can already dump the /system partition though.

Loki on recovery might be something to look at, though, which may lead to Loki on the boot.IMG and dumping sealime.
[General Questions and Answers] m4f1050:
Wow, people still haven't given up on this tablet? I learned my lesson and got the AT300-SE which has same processor and screen (AND ROOTABLE). Only lack is LED (I yet haven't used my camera on any of the 2 tablets, so I don't know what an LED would benefit besides having a 10" flashlight? LOL) and HDMI (this one I do use but I can use the AT300 for that matter...since Plex is what I use HDMI for and it works fine.) So 1 program I use on AT305, the rest is AT300-SE ALL THE WAY. AT300-SE even has regular mircoUSB so I can stand it on it's stand without the charging cable getting in the way. AT305 = COMPLETE FALURE! unless they unlock bootloader or they find a way to root it. Now WHY o WHY can't we do as we please with our OUT OF WARRANTY devices???? TOSHIBA C'MON!!!! Warranty over, time to unlock bootloader! We will end up throwing this crap away if we brick it and it won't hurt is a darn thing! LOL

DONT GET ME WRONG, I would LOVE to root this tablet!

Not everyone can just get a different model tablet. Plus Toshiba corrected their mistake and enabled Sea lime in an update, so whichever got updated are no longer root able either.

[General Questions and Answers] pio_masaki:

[General Questions and Answers] bobross82:
Sealime?
[General Questions and Answers] pio_masaki:
Kernel module in the boot.IMG that prevents rooting, in particular write access to /system and the bootloader partitions, maybe more. Really if that thing can get knocked out then we can root. Boot loader signature checks boot and recovery so we can't do anything custom until that's gotten around, its the main reason we can't root at all besides temp shell root. Excluding the SE version on that one 4.1 update that lacks sealime for some reason, a later update patched it, though.
[General Questions and Answers] protofuran:
So I successfully did this ages ago by playing around with it - what I did was to exploit partial root using one of the known tools (I can't remember which), and then overwriting the pointer to the callback array that sealime.ko registers with the kernel as NULL using a command line utility that could write physical memory - this causes the kernel to not call the sealime module for anything. Then I simply unloaded the module, remounted r/w, and removed it. I did this on my Excite AT330. Unfortunately I can't remember it 100%, but I *had* a rooted device - it is possible.

edit: it was still temporary root which I lost at reboot.
[General Questions and Answers] pio_masaki:
I was looking at something like that, but its way past my abilities to accomplish and the guy I was working with vanished so it never went anywhere. If you could provide some info or pointers to get going on this I'd appreciate it. Like how do you find the address, then the utilities or commands used to knock it out of kernel memory. I know motochopper can get temp root most times, sometimes a reboot is needed to get it to work.

While messing with this the best I managed was locking up the device poking at the memory lol
[General Questions and Answers] furzewolf:
I know it's been ages, but has anybody made any further progress with this? I have a Toshiba AT10-A, but it uses the same Sealime security. I've been reading the Tegra 3 manual to find out if there is a way to force it into a mode where I can get direct MMC access, but no luck as yet. I'm thinking that there is probably a pinout that will allow this, but I don't know. What's vital is that a FULL dump of the entire MMC can be done, in my opinion.

I also took some pictures of the interior of the AT10-A, which are in a gallery on imgur(dot)com/a/Gfiy1. There are copper contacts visible for "DL KEY" and "RESET". Reset seems to, well, reboot the device, as expected, but DL Key doesn't do anything obvious.

The MMC memory is a Toshiba THGBM5G7A2JBAIM chip, which is a 16GB surface mount 169 pin flash chip. It can be upgraded, with reflow soldering, to 32GB, and possibly up to 64GB.

The processor is an nVidia T30L-P-A3 Tegra 3 chip, with the reference manual available at dropbox(dot)com/s/bfwn4i9ng8wsq6q/Tegra3%20TRM.pdf.

AT300SE is unlocked when buy???/ Can i unlock bootloader???
[General Questions and Answers] zxzxzxzxzxzxzxzxzx:
I still have this tablet. It was a waste of money since I never could use it since there is no root and locked bootloader. After week 1 I put it away and never took it out again.

Since then I have had two other tablets and this one sat collecting dust. Might as well trash it at this point since it's worthless. Sad because it's in mint condition with a quad core processor. What a waste. Never buy Toshiba. Always make sure your device doesn't have a locked bootloader or if it does that there is some exploit.

Needless to say, I've never bought a Toshiba device since.

A few years ago I bought a $600 or $700 verizon 64gb turbo phone, paid in cash (it was called turbo something). It must have been the best performance phone on the market, except for no expandable storage or removable battery. After a few days I realized it could never be rooted. I promptly returned it to the Verizon store and bought an S5 for $300 on craigslist. I have had my S5 ever since. True story. In fact I only have the S5 because even though the bootloader is locked on verizon version, there was an exploit to root it anyway. I always had it rooted.

If no root, no device. Without root, the device is literally worthless to me.
