Factory Reset the Tab first and then try again !

Initially I too found it difficult to root once i upgraded to 4.0.3 (r5)

Here's what I did.

1. Backup all ur data, and factory reset the tab, preferably with erase USB option checked.

2. Download Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry

3. Once ur tab is reset, complete the initial setup, go to settings, and make sure USB debugging (Developer Options), Unknown Sources (Security) is checked

4.Now to run Bin4ary's script, follow the instructions given in this video tutorial.

5. Instruction for rooting the tab appear from 6:00mins after start of the video.

6. Though the video shows instructions for Xperia Tablet S, the method for the older Sony Tablet S is the same. The only catch being which version of the script to use. As I've mentioned in this thread before, v10 of Bin4ary's script did the job for me.

7. If all the steps are followed as shown in the video, you will be able to root your tablet successfully.

Don't forget to thank WonderEkin for translating the rooting method from japanese, and also Bin4ry for making the rooting procedure so much simpler through his script !!

Good luck with rooting ur tab mate !

Im having problems with the terminal coming up any ideas?
[Sony Tablet S] Kapoted:
Hi there.

Many thanks, in advance, for your help to everyone.

Well, i have a problem. I have the Sony Tablet S non3G 16GB. I had root on the tablet, and then updated via OTA, to r5a. I've tryed your method with bin4ry's v10,v13 and v30, all with the same result.

When i reach the first request to click on "restore my data" i click it, the tablet "says" that the restore was sucessfull, and then nothing happens on the tablet neither on the pc.

I'm using Windows 8. When i sucefully rooted my tablet, i used bin4ry's v13

Can someone help me please?
[Sony Tablet S] condi:
use new version of AiO :)
[Sony Tablet S] Kapoted:
With the root function?
[Sony Tablet S] condi:
yep, full automatic.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wormyrocks:
Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I have a request.

I recently bought the Motorola Wireless Keyboard with Trackpad, initially intended to work with the Xyboard and, I believe, the RAZR. I'm using it with my One X.

However, certain features of the keyboard are exclusive to Moto devices only, such as two finger scrolling and pinch to zoom.

So my question is, does anyone know where the software that drives the touchpad gestures is? And how hard would it be to make into a flashable zip for non motorola devices?

Thanks in advance everyone.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
While I don't know exactly where to find the scroll gestures module, try looking for where the drivers are installed to and looking for a folder called gestures, modules, motions, drivers, initialization, some thing along those lines. As far as making a flashable zip that contains the gesture and the drivers for other devices you would have to either write your own drivers to get the motto only features working with non motto hardware, or adapt mottos existing driver code to work with non motto devices. The simple part is creating the flashable zip the hard part is adapting the drivers which would require intermediate to expert C/C++ knowledge as well as fundamentals of how the linux kernel and embedded drivers work. But if your up for the challenge go for it I wish you good luck :)!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wormyrocks:
I don't own a Xyboard, just the keyboard, but I thought this would be a good place to post. Thanks for shedding some light on the issue though!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr_Nacho:
I'm currently running paranoid android but would like to switch over to this rom :)

How would I go about installing this? Wipe data, both caches then flash the latest version of the ROM? Do I need to flash gapps as well?

I did put this in the forums but didn't get a solid response.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbc0:
HI. I'm not an expert but I think that when you change to a new ROM you need to do a factory reset (in TWRP) and some say to also wipe both cache's, then install the new ROM.

Some rom's come with gaps built in and others you have to install it separately after you install the rom. It usually says that in the description somewhere. Many roms seem to use the same gaps file.

Hope this helps. It is the way I do it and it seems to work for me.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr_Nacho:
Thanks for the response! Im rather new to flashing but in the past I've had no problems. I got the process down, just want to make sure that's how you would do it for an entirely ROM. Thanks :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omega Kaos:
If coming from a different custom rom it is recommended to wipe System Data and cache no need to wipe dalvik if you wipe data and cache, dalvik is only needs to be wiped if upgrading rom versions but usually the rom will do this for you

Even though i posted in thread a lot later than you did, gapps is included so there's no need to download them.

Also just for reference you might also need to wipe system cache and data if the rom is upgrading the base eg. JRO03L to JRO03R which is in v3.8 just testing at the moment

while everyone does not do this, it can cause issues so people wipe and others don't

Also Kaos Droid wipes system cache and dalvik-cache every time you flash no matter the version, it does not touch data at all main reason it formats the sd unlike recovery e.g ClockWorkMod or TWRP formats /data without touching the sd partition

Hope this helps and sorry for the late reply in the thread

[7" Kindle Fire HD Accessories] eng3:
Does the magnet help hold the cover in place? or is there nothing that holds it in place (without the strap)?

I'm wondering how it will be if the cover gets bent back alot and used as a stand. I'm thinking the plastic will want to keep that shape and gradually not want to close.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Accessories] shantipur:
Could MoKo cases be screwing up my Nexus 7??

I need to know if anyone else is experiencing similar problems with the Nexus 7 and the MoKo case.

I am now on my THIRD Nexus 7 (all warranty replacements). Both defective units suddenly went bad in the same way. The units became unstable, bringing up software unasked, then starting and stopping after the initial splash screen leaving me unable to get into the software or my WiFi. Finally, each unit refused to turn off. I tried both a factory reset and a hard reset (working with Google tech support), but both units refused to reset. Crazy, huh?

My Nexus 7s have "lived" in my living room. I've not tried to root them, or to put weird off-putting software or looked at virus-prone websites...and yet both units have gone south in the identical way.

The one constant element with both units has been my use of a MoKo case (purchased from Amazon) with the magnetic closure . . . and I've wondered if that magnet is causing some unanticipated, unwarranted change in the Nexus 7 that would cause such a severe disruption that it can't be reset and can't turn off.

I've asked Google tech support about this, but there are enough notes in these threads indicating that Google is no help.

Anyone experiencing these problems with the Nexus 7, especially if you have your unit protected in the MoKo case? Please let me know. I really like the case--it's the best out there for the Nexus 7--but I don't want to risk having a third unit die on me if the case is to blame.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sgandy2989:
I was having problems with the OTA update for jelly bean where I kept getting the android bot with the exclamation mark. So when I started looking for reasons while I why I couldn't, when I looked at the firmware version mine started with WW. I thought that was the problem because I bought my Prime in the US where I live. After I found the US firmware for .28 I found the one for .21 as well. I had used the downgrade tool before because I downgraded my Prime to root it and I was able OTA update from .21 to .28 with no problem. But with not being able to update OTA to jelly bean I downgraded to the US .21, once I had it on loaded I am unable to update the Prime from .21 to .28. Have I downgraded to the wrong version and if so how do i fix this?
[Motorola Droid X2] nateman7097:
So, I have scoured the forums and have not yet found a solution to my current problem.

I was able to originally root my phone using the moto-fastboot method that has been posted on these threads several times to root my phone. Upon rooting I installed some standard applications to remove bloatware and toy with some of the hardware settings. I worked great. I got a little bit too confident and decided to put a custom rom on it without properly backing up(I thought I did).

So I got stuck into bootloop. Upon searching your extremely handy and helpful forums I found a way to install a new sbf and unbrick my phone using RSD lite. The operating system in now working, but it will not make or receive phone calls or data.

Possibly pertinent information:

System version: 45.0.43.MB867.ACG-nTelos.en.US (this is probably way off)

Model: Milestone X2

Android: 2.3.6

Baseband: N_03..13.56P

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9-00011-gbc368b9 mcbk53@il93lnxdroid08 #2

Build Number: 45.0.43

ERI: Version 5

PRL: Version 21100

My Phone number: 000-000-5761 (obviously not correct)

MIN: 0000005761

MEID: A000002C5D4811

Network: nTelos (I have no idea where that network even is)

Signal Strength: -101dBm 0 asu

Mobile network type: CDMA -1xRTT

Service State: In Service

Mobile Network State: Disconnected

I tried again to root my phone to try to put a custom rom on it, but when I try the moto-fastboot method upon entering the command thru abd shell /preinstall/su I get the error "Permission Denied". I have tried the superoneclick method, Pete's method, z4 root, and droid 3 easy root. I am at quite a loss here on what to do next.

Does anyone know of a way I could maybe use the default android recovery to install the proper rom for my phone and where to get the proper rom?

Alternatively, does anyone know where I can get the proper sbf file for the CSpire Motorolla Milestone X2?

I have been searching for a few days, so please don't get mad if I have overlooked a thread. I was very hesitant about posting this thread because I am not a very active member of your forums and I wanted to make sure I searched a lot before asking the same question over again.

I am not saying the problem I am having is completely unique, but I have not seen anyone with my problem. Since my phone is currently useless as a phone I am willing to try a lot more methods.

Update: I have successfully rooted my phone again using this method:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1823112

Given that I now have root access are there any new options to get my phone to work?

How to change you system number

I have some more updates on my current status. I have received a warranty phone. I will not mail it for a few more days, so if anyone can inform me on how to pull some import files from it for their personal use I will . It is rooted now using the method mentioned above. Upon activating the phone with a rep from the company I got some more possibly useful information. I hope this helps others.

I haven't seen this anywhere, but if you need to change you system phone number do the following:

1. dial ##626 press call

2. enter 000000 for the SPC password

3. MIN is the number for your local network

4. IMSI will fill automatically

5. MDN is your personal phone number

6. CDMA system ID I have not information on this

E:/ failed to load keys

/res/keys No such file or directory.

thats happens when the app tries to do it automatically. then i try it manually by toggling the signature verification in cwm.
