Ok, got the 10" tablet rooted

So. After crawling around for about 3 days with google, and in XDA and flashmyandroid forums I found something that works with my chinese tablet. Bloody thing doesn´t let me put links so I´ll tell you what and how I found the needed file.

The file I used is named "Android_Root_1.0.zip" and I found it by plugging in "root" "tablet" and "generic" in XDA forum search. There is a forum by the name "[Q] Obtaining root on generic tablet" in which post #25 has a link for the file.

Just make sure of the following:

1) That the tablet is charged, has off-market apps allowed and USB debugging selected

2) When the tablet connects you use the USB drivers supplied in the Android SDK (I used ver 20.0.1). How to use such drivers is especially important for these "generic" tablets, just follow the instructions in other posts for changing the drivers. My tablet was recognized as a Samsung Galaxy S by Win7, which of course it is not.

3) Download, extract the archive and double click on the *.bat file

**Make sure you always wait for the tablet to reboot before pressing keys as instructed**

4) Voilá, if all goes well you should have a rooted tablet.

Information of use to all crawlers:

Manufacturer: WonderMedia

Country: China

Model: ColorTab-MID (10" screen)

Processor: ARMv7 rev(0)

Android: 4.0.3

Bought in Mexico from a SuperFin sale (similar to a cyberMonday in the USA)

P.s. now I'm going to try with my wife's... same mfgr but with a 7" screen. Need to check the processor though.

Hey guys, I just bought a new model of a 7inch Genesis Tablet. The model is GT-7240. Do you think the method that is used to root another 7inch model of same brand would work for my GT-7240 without bricking risks?

Thanks in advance! I'm really looking forward to having my tablet rooted. :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
The process I described for rooting my 10" generic chinese tablet I followed exactly for my wife's 7" tablet and it worked. I think my wife's is a wm8950 based tablet that is arm cortex a8 while mine is a wm8850 which is arm cortex a9. Mind, the ICS is somewhat different in each one but both "rooted" correctly without much fuss.

Trying it now, thaaanks!! Im just a bit confused abou the whole JDK and ADB thing, but trying to go over it reading other posts as sugested. But anyway, if you could explain in more details would be great!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
Ok here goes what I remember of how it goes. You need to be able to access the tablet from your computer and being that it is a chinese one that means that you will need the Android SDK because it has the USB driver. First off you need to go to java (at their website) and download and install the JDK (java development kit which you can find at www dot oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html). Once that installation is finished you need to download the Android SDK (you can find it at developer.android.com/sdk/index.html) which is in zip format. Unzip and take note of the folder. Navigate to that folder and double click on the SDK manager file. When the window opens make sure that all Android 4.0.3 boxes are selected (under Android 4.0.3 section) as well as the boxes from Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-tools Under tools section) and the Google USB driver (under extras). Once the software is downloaded and installed restart your pc (just to make sure that all is well).

On your tablet make sure that USB debugging is selected (under settings) and connect your tablet to the PC. Regardless of what happens you will need to change the drivers the PC uses to connect to those in what you downloaded. Go to control panel, hardware then hardware manager and look for the tablet... it either will have incorrectly assigned drivers (mine were Nexus S drivers) or it will have a ! meaning that no appropriate drivers were found. Right click on the assigned name and then click on update drivers. Follow prompts to update from disk and navigate to the USB folder you created under the Android SDK installation folder.

Once that is done then download the file I mentioned in the link above. It will come in a zip file so unzip and take note of the folder. Navigate to the folder and double click on the **.bat file. It might happen that you have a DOS error which says that it did not find ADB. You will have to add the ***\tools folder of the Android SDK installation folder to the system path in the environmental variables (if you don´t know how just follow the instructions in java.com/en/download/help/path.xml).

Be carefull to always wait for the tablet to restart and be "seen" by windows after each key press once you double clicked on the **.bat file. You can leave the Hardware Manager box open and keep on eye on the tablet appearing there.

So... were these pointers enough? LOL being a bit sarcastic. Have fun.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] flaviamassa:
Ummmm thaaanks!! :D

Ive been visiting some forums to learn evet more. I just followed all those steps, and the root progran you mentioned just doesnt recognizes my device. Maybe its something with Genesis tablets, dont know. Specialky this model gt-7240 which is brand new in the market...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
It's possibly due to the usb drivers not being correctly registered in windows. Make surer that under the hardware manager you can see "Android device". If not then you need to change that with the one in tne Android SDK folr.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
I think so. Most of the Chinese tablets have WonderMedia chipsets and mobo and most are manufactured in Shenzhen. Curiosly enough many mnanufacturers also share the same Build operator (usually reilienchen using test-keys).

As far as I understand the process the tablet is not in really much danger. BUT remember that you root at your own risk.

TWD_MID firmware needed

Sir,

Needs firmware for my Tablet, Chinese.

Name - Vtouch

TWD_MID

7" 4gb total internal

No Sim, Only Wifi.

Already installed 4.0.4

Needs Jelly Bean.. Thanks.. Finding since 7 days.. now tired.. and finally decided to post here..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
Unfortunately for you this thread is about rooting firmwares not about getting firmwares. Nevertheless, trying to be a bit helpful most "generic" Chinese tablets need to have something like Cyanogen or XTeam 3.0 loaded into them to be able to get JellyBean, in other words you will need to load a custom rom (although not always a custom recovery).

Be very careful, I've found that many of the 7" "generic" Chinese tablets come with a RockChip in them (not WonderMedia) so special considerations must be taken before you even try to load CWM or even a custom rom. Also, as far as I can tell ONLY the "Android_Root_1.0" tool will be able to root tablets with these chips as only the ADB version (not the one downloaded with Android_SDK) within it is able to "see" RockChip based tablets.:(

TWD_MID

Hi again,

Actually I am an IT Engineer. And android system tablet is 1st ever my any android device. So I dont know about difference between CFW and firmware. When I check specification of my tablet through 3rd party app. It shows

Device - nuclear-evb

Board - nuclear

Model - TWD_MID

Host - Tom-dekstop

Processor - ARMv7 Processor Rev 2 (V7I)

It totally looks same as this one

(I have link but forum is not allowing me to post external link neither it is allowing me to put a new thread as there is not thread for my tablet model)

I tried to download several firmware but it says invalid firmware via livesuit. Even I am not able to start in recovery mode (Vol+ & Power key).

However My device is already rooted when purchased. Just wanted to upgrade to good android version. Jelly belle if possible.

And also I could not find any perticular thread in whole forum that can help to identify tablet and can help to gain firmware, Please point my if any are there. Please look in to my above specification if you can directly help by your self. Thanks.. Take Care..:good:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
Ok. I understand. Sometimes generic tablets get so generic that original roms can't be downloaded from the manufacturer (because it doesn'y have support or even website). One thing I've found useful is to really know what's inside. I opened my 7" tablet to view exactly what chips it had and work from there. Before you try anything you need to make a rom dump from your tablet so you can always go back to original; fortunately your tab is already rooted. If it's an rk29xx chip you will need rkflashtool for linux to read it, if it is onether type of chip (such as WonderMedia) you will need to do it via adb tool that resides in the android sdk from google. How to use each tool you can find here in XDA. Once that is done and you know what chip you have look for how to install clockwork manager as a custom recovery for your tablet based on the chip you have.

NOTE: I've read enough to know that with rk29xx based tablets you are better off not installing a custom recovery and doing your load/unload rom operations with the rkflashtool.

Just off hand with the spece you posted I believe X3 team's rom could be loaded succesfully into your tablet. Look under "About tablet" in your settings a google the build. It should give you more info.

Opened Tablet

Hi again,

I open my tablet and found a cheapest chip "A13". But I am very well happy with it. Because it can afford my all mistakes of flashing..

So its "Allwinner A13". Specs from "About" is here

Model Number TWD_MID

Android 4.0.4

Base Version 1.5

Kernal Version 3.0.8+ (30oct 2012)

Build Number nuclear_evb-eng 4.0.4 IMM76d 20120917 test-keys

However My tablet is working perfectly now, But i just wanted to update to better firmware 4.2 jellybean. Is this possible? and is this worth? What is your opinion?

And as I said before I tried to download some firmware, and tried to flash with livesuite, 2 things i faced at the beginning...

1-Tablet could not enter in to recovery mode.

2- After pressing vol+ or vol- when I insert usb in to pc, livesuit gives error that Image is invalid.\

Please advice.Thanks

I did access the root folder from the es explorer but it was empty!!!

and the apps r freedom and paradise island trainer i try those 2 app for the game paradise island after rooting they opened but

with freedom i lunch the game but nothing happen!!!!!

with trainer could not lunch it says something like error the format change wait for update!!!!

what can i do sir?

but before rooting i wasn't able to open them.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
Ok. First off I'm not as knowledgeable as others around here. What I can tell you is that if possible to update imho JB handles better than ICS.

If livesuit gives you a bad image error it is possible that the roms you are flashing are not entering at the correct places and the system does not recognize them. Also drivers and othees within the roms are not matching what your hardware needs. Android is not like your-favorite-flavour-linux, mac or win since it doesn't come with all drivers possible or able to download them from network. That is why I asked about knowing at least the what the main chip is and work from there.

I think I have seen A13 mentioned in the forums that talk about "the cube" tablets. Try looking in them. X3 team's will not do because it's a different chip.

Keep searching here in XDA and in AndroidTablets forums for the A13 roms and google your build number (nuclear_evb-eng 4.0.4 IMM76d) and you should be able to find more info.

Cheers

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
I think you should be able to do it with android root 1.1 but it will all depend on the chipset you,ve got. Why? Because the Actions chipset need the su and busybox to be a specific set or it wont work. This is not true for wondermedia based chipsets. The RK chipset is not readily recognized by google's adb, but onky by adb from the android root tool. Read through this thread and you will find instructions on the tools and downloads you will need.

Possibly. Root with the Android Root tool. You might be able to use other tools. I think it doesn"t have the weirdness of the rk chips which need a particular version of adb. Well at least that is what i think.

How to Root Chinese Android Tablet

Hi Everyone,

I need help to root EVEREST EVERPAD 100 7", Android 4.0 (with usb flash memory support).

In the device's manual it says, it has 3G modem support but I could not manage to install my Vodafone 3G modem.

The only way, it seems, to root it, but how? I couldn't find the device drivers.

All help will be appreciated.

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] earthspiritraven:
First off. 3G modem. Most tablets that are 3g stick compatible will have a compatibility list in the "more" section under wireless and network. If the list does not include the make and model of your 3g stick you'll have to fish around xda & google for "driver" and learn how to add it into the rom or the stick will not work. Getting them into rom entails that you have root priviledges.

I have two different chinese tablets and although both say they can use 3g only one is actually able to do so.

Second. Drivers. Most chinese or other generic tablets are improperly recognized by windows. Download from google their development tool. It includes some generic drivers you can use. Search here in xda for instructions on how to download and use.

Third. Once you have the drivers and the tablet is properly recognized use the android 4.etc... tool of your choice to gain root access.

Hmmm first you need to give us more details sonthat we know what to troubleshoot. For xample, has windows recognized the table twhe you connect it with the usb cable? Did any errors show up when the tablet was connected for the first time? Have you installed the java sdk and the android development tool? Are you sure your chipset is wondermedia or similar based ( common chinese chips) or is it rock... based? The rock based chips only respond to a certain version of the usb driver and adb interface... at least it was so last time I checked.

So.. more info is needed so we can help.
