Brother, first try to install the driver of google android sdk, and not those of Fujitsu tablet (if you have one installed, it is best to uninstall and reboot the PC)

Then do a factory reset of the tablet, marking the option to delete all.

*- Active in Developer options, USB debugging, stay active and allow test location. Also active in security, unknown sources.

*- Connect the tablet (verifies that Windows recognizes it as "Android ADB Interface")

*- Run the script WkPark friend, follow the instructions and after two reboots, you will have root access to the tablet.

*- If you do not succeed, try the same steps but running the script Bin4ry friend, and using the "Special" ... you follow the steps indicated.

Always remember to run a shutdown and startup at the end of each script ...

If you have problems with applications that are lost, do not pay much attention as you can re-run a factory reset or restore the tablet for recovery, for it ready.

I can certify that the script works Bin4ry and also the WkPark

(I have a tablet exactly like yours ... Pegatron / Chagall / Síragon 4N)

Confirmed working on a ZTE Grand X from Virgin in the UK

Worked beautifully after second attempt - Very happy, donated a few bob to say thanks! My phone is now 10x as awesome.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] VtHondaGuy08:
Idk why but I can't get this to work for the life of me, I've tried everything and every time I keep getting the "cannot find specified path" error. I've deleted and re-downloaded the program numerous times, my device shows in adb devices too(yes I ended ADB in task manager). No I'm not running this as an admin on my computer either.

Phones a At&t Sony Ion.

Thanks very much :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] x5c0d3:
This is what I did. I installed the drivers from the android sdk.

Okay. Maybe I try a factory reset first before I try rooting the tablet.

I just didn't allow test locations. Is that really important?

I don't know the script of WkPark. Will search for it and check it out.

Yeah that's what I did. Factory reset and everything was back there (just my mangas and movies were gone.. but who cares)

Sorry if this sounds stupid, but after rooting successfully, does it mean that my bootloader is unlocked as well?

Mine isn't locked by default. It's available to unlock, but does this rooting unlock it? Or i have to go through the usual official way?

Many Thanks

Not working for Xperia Arc LT15a running stock ICS. Any advice?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
Does the Arc have the "Backup&Restore" App ? If yes then choose "LT26,LT22 etc." if not try "Other", if nothing works then it is incompatible sorry.

Regards
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] batman_112:
No, it does not have the Backup&restore" App. I tried both. When I chose LT26, LT22 option it said "Good it worked" and the phone rebooted but no root.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Lassito:
it doesnt work on xperia s. it says, das system kann den angegebenen pfad nicht finden. usb debugging is on. what can i do or what i have to do?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:

Regards
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Iglesias21:
I'm really sorry for sounding stupid here. I've done all this before and much more. but when I've downloaded your updated script. it opens with notepad and shows up with weird writing. I can't extract the file. I cant open the file apart from in notepad. There is no RunMe.bat exe file. Am I downloading the wrong script or am I doing something wrong. Like I said, I've done this a million times to know what I'm doing and figure it out but this time I think something is wrong with the downloaded file. I've downloaded it several times. I'm not asking for step by step instructions. I'm merely asking if the file I downloaded on page 1 a couple minutes ago titled Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry (1). This only opens with Notepad...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
You have to extract it :D

Download 7zip to extract the file, then you will get all you need :P

Regards
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Iglesias21:
Ahh has anyone ever told you your a star ;). It is so simple. Just the type of file i didn't recognise for once. silly me. I owe you therefore donation coming your way. Treat yourself to a dessert, not a Beer! lol. Thanks B
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hhlong89:
Only use 7zip or not?

We have to power-off, check unknow sources and usb debugging?

At all, thanks for your work!

Extract my 7zip file, activate usb-debugging , connect phone and execute script. It's straightforward :D

Problem with installed busybox

Because of your rooting script dose not make symlink on /system/xbin for Busybox,

some mod/app that using Busybox is not working properly.

I think you'd better to include this command at somewhere proper with proper form.

su -c /system/xbin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin

Thanks for making cool rooting method :good::)

XPERIA TX

FW:7.0.A.1.307

rooted

thanks to Bin4ry

-----------------------------------------

I've same issue like Kevin3688 does....

for example RootExploer mount /system as RW then phone reboot its self.....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kevin3688:
After rooted with v11, my Xperia TX (FW:7.0.A.1.307) reboots itself everytime I try to delete apps in system/app. (the root isn't stable on this version.)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] crazymister:
Well I'm having trouble with changing permissions too. Staying in read write mode in system makes my phone reboot too. (Xperia T)

I think Sony built some sort of security in it. Hope I don't have to unlock my bootloader for root to work right.

@Bin4ry: do you have any clue what could cause this?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Loki[ITA]:
i have zte grand x

i tried v10 and v11 version of that script, follow the istructions but during reboot give me this message "mount permission denied (are you root )"

and the isn't rooted after reboot

so can someone give me the right istrunctions to root this phone? thanks

EDIT: after 4 attends this method works for me too

thanks

+1 on reboots with busy box...

Im having issues removing system apps when using titanium backup, even updating busy box from the market don't work as the phone just reboots in the first couple of steps, weird, Sony has done something here...or root might not be right, I can get root access to no frills cpu etc, but, not 100% right with busy box, or system related actions.

By the way, I tested this .bat method, the new flashtool 0.9.7.0 also works fine as its integrated, just select root, and then force adbrestore hack.

Just want to confirm as well that this worked on my Tablet S.

Something of note is, I had to do it twice. The first time I did not notice to run the onload scripts from the terminal. Maybe the text for that secetion should be flashing to get our attentinon :D

when we can have news for HTC One S! i can't unlock bootloader but i want root
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] clouds5:
just tried this on my TF201, Transformer Prime after the update to Jelly Bean, doesnt seem to work^^

Sidenote: I guess i still have "partial root" after restoring with OTA root keeper. I can use TB, root explorers (also access /data folder) and terminal but i'm not able to use the app gesture control nor can i update my SU binary or busybox...

So i tried this root method to regain full root:

Everything works well until the device rebooted then comes:

-Going to copy files to it's place

-mount: permission denied (are you root?)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] daymz:
Same thing as you, tf201 with JB. Debugfs root doesn't work either. :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nikodr:
I will get a xperia p tomorrow that has a 2.3.7 gingerbread.So i install ics the official way,then install this for root?

After that how do i install an unlocked bootloader for backup restore?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] daymz:
If you are running a ASUS Transformer Prime TF201 recently updated to JellyBean (4.1.1) through OTA (I was rooted but not unlocked), and ... lost root: (actually, I lost partial root : Titanium Backup, Voodoo OTA Root Keeper and adb shell still were able to get su)

- I tried bin4ry many android root... no result, same thing

- I tried debugfs automation root... no result, same thing

- I downloaded Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip from androidsu.com

- Uploaded su, Superuser.apk, and busybox to /data/local/tmp/ using adb push

- chmod 6755 /data/local/tmp/su ; chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/busybox ; chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk

- Copy /data/local/tmp/su , /data/local/tmp/busybox into /system/bin (I also re-copied busybox into /system/xbin)

- Copy /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk into /system/app/

- Reboot

- Run Busybox Installer... got the Superuser root prompt, yay !

- Installed Busybox 1.20.2 and I'm all back up and running !

I assume this will not work if you don't have that "partial root" (at least, getting su through adb shell)

So I don't recommend this method to Xperia t users
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
Whats your problem on Xperia T? It works fine here on my Xperia T, i also developed this method for exactly this device.

Just notice you cannot remount system partition and deleted stuff, becasue Xperia T has daemon running to prevent it!

Regards
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] spida_singh:
Hi Bin4ry

I also have the Xperia T, can you comment on the reboots? Mine worked fine, but, every time i even touch the system partition, it reboots, i tried to install an updated busy box (via the market), the phone just rebooted, even copying and pasting a file into the system directory causes the phone to boot, i can make a video if it helps...is it the root, or something else?

Even if i mount /system as RW... a few seconds later, device reboots...?

I'm on O2 UK Branded firmware.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
Yes thats what it does. It has nothing to do with a faulty root, it is just a security option on the Xperia T which should prevent modifications to the System partition. When i have time i will take a look and tell which daemon on device it is so we can kill the daemon and modificate the system partition.

Hm is it possible because of the root my Contact Widget to crash i guess? Its all red saying "Could not load widget". And few times now my home screen crashed also? Using Xperia S nothing changed only used this method to root it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
Thanks i changed that.

No normally not. You can try to reinstall the widget, sometimes strange things happens. The root does not touch any data on the phone except running the rooting itself.
