How to use SferaDev's Rk29 Root Toolkit

Usage is same as that of DoomLord's ICS Toolkit (as Rk29 Toolkit is it's fork). For using this you'll need

1. A windows PC.( if someone ports this Tool to Linux/Mac you can use em, but not yet :( )

2. Data/connectivity cable(not OTG cable) to connect your device to PC via USB.(it may work via Wifi, but that's offtopic)

3. SferaDev's Rk29 Toolkit and usb adb drivers.( Download 'em from the attachment of 1st post in this thread)

You may refer to Doomlord's post which explains the steps and things to do before using the Toolkit.

Steps-

Step 1: Connect the tab to your PC via USB.

Step 2: Install Drivers. If it is the 1st time you're connecting the tab to PC or if there's no suitable drivers in PC for your tab, a pop up will be shown to install drivers. Choose the drivers you've downloaded. If it doesn't work find working adb usb drivers for your device from somewhere and choose it.

Step 3: If drivers got installed correctly, extract the contents of SferaDev's Rk29 Root Toolkit to a suitable location. Open the folder and you'll find a runme.bat file( Don't mess with other files ). Just click and run it.

Step 4: A DOS window'll run some scripts and notify you of what's going on.The tab'll reboot a few times. Don't panic, just wait. When rooting is completed it'll be displayed in the same DOS screen.

Step 5:Check, if Superuser and Busybox apps have appeared in device. If yes, you've successfully rooted your device! Enjoy :). If you're still not convinced, use a Root Checker app( many are available in Play Store).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SferaDev:
Thanks for the feedback and the drivers. Your feedback added to the proper post! :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SferaDev:
The driver file you will install is the .inf and you will submit it in the computer management as a normal driver.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SferaDev:
For those interested in the android-emulator trick visit the original post by doomlord.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1601038

It's a rooting toolkit for some Sony devices.

I have just created the .bat using the doomlord work as it says in the cmd for our tabs.

As the rooting process is the same for any android other toolkits for other devices may work with our rk29 tabs.

This is only as reference for interested ones in the rooting if you just want to root your tab go to the first post.

Thanks for your support.

Works on INTEX iTAB

Suxessfully rooted INTEX iTAB! No issues apart from busybox problem(my tab has busybox pre-installed in /system/bin instead of /system/xbin). When Rk29 toolkit installs busybox in /system/xbin it doesn't remove the one in /system/bin. As system/bin appears before system/xbin in $PATH, only the pre-installed version is usable. I had to manually do

rm /system/bin/busybox
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SferaDev:
Thanks for the feedback! Your problem with busybox just happens in some tabs so I'll not modify the script. Thanks another time!

What about jelly bean? I can't figure out how to update to jelly bean

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 PM ----------

In fact, i can't even get the driver to install right for the lt7052...I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I tried on my win 8 x64, and win xp 32 bit.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] HEXcube:
This wont work in Jelly Bean!!

The exploit used by Doomlord's ICS Toolkit,Rk29 toolkit and all those root tools for ICS using local.prop exploit method won't work for Jelly Bean.

It is possible to root Jelly Bean but,not using this method. The reason is that Jelly Bean doesn't use local.prop at all.

This is not a tool for updating to Jelly Bean,it's for rooting only. And for the driver part, the problem may be with the adb you use,not the drivers. Use the adb in Rk29 Toolkit to check whether it works.

If you want drivers for flashing/updating, know that they aren't the same as adb drivers.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SferaDev:
Right, sorry for late answer!

The adb method should work with Jellybean but the jb that I use is prerooted. Even that search for the correct drivers for the adb.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bassgoonist:
Turns out it was actually windows 8 driver signing preventing the driver from install correctly. Chalk that up to PEBKAC. The rooting worked pefectly :)

Rockchip drivers- a mystery!

Do anyone know the official source of Rockchip drivers,if any? I've read that Rockchip's SDK and tools are not open and so not freely available. I don't know if that just meant it's not Open Source but the binary is freeware.

I've seen some Open Source flashing tools for Rockchip in git and google code, but not sure if they're official. Do anybody know the source of the drivers we already have? Or are they just leaked ones?

Works on Kata T1 Tablet

Hi Friends,

I have a Kata T1 tablet: http://www.katadigital.com/index.php?route=kata/productt1. I downloaded Android System Information (ASI) to verify the chip used in this product and apparently this also uses the RK29 chip.

I registered just to say and confirm that the Rooting Procedure works for the Kata T1 (in case you need to add it to a database or list of devices where this tutorial works). Great job, guys!

SIDE NOTE: A lot of tutorials say that you will see a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager. For me this is not the case, I never saw a yellow exclamation point (I'm using Windows 8 64-bit, by the way). Just wanted to note this. I just heard the notification sound upon plugging, and then I proceeded with the rest of the steps in the tutorial (i.e. double-click on runme.bat). I am finishing a video tutorial for rooting the Kata T1, because there are a lot of owners here from where I am (Philippines) and they needed help in rooting it. I have referenced this thread as well so that they can download/get the needed files.

EDIT: I made a YouTube video for rooting the Kata T1 tablet, hope this may help others: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbJuaaBXfWU

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] quinacridone:
one last hope

Thanks for the reply.

I'll keep at it. This may be too advanced for my level, but I found a Jelly Bean Root package on Rockchipfirmware.com

If I somehow use a file manager to copy/paste the files in, will the android system let me do that? I'm suspecting not, that the files are read-only and not replaceable...but again, my knowledge of android OS is very little! And this comment on Rockchip firmware worries me:

"file permissions will most likely need to be set for both the su and busybox files after copying them in, otherwise it probably won't work..."

I have no idea about file permissions....I've done a lot of searching thru XDA-developers forum already, and am checking out the XDA University, but if anyone can point out the correct forum to learn how to copy/paste into android, and setting file permissions, that would be a huge help!

Or any warnings that I'm about to brick my tab will also be noted !
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SferaDev:
In theory you'll not brick your tab. But be careful.

For home rooting, I suggest you to take your original ROM open it with zip and add the files with the correct permissions. Do it in your own responsibility!
