Thanks for the input! Yes, yes, I know windoze makes more work. It's also pretty widespread for folks. ;)

For step 13 - I think it depends on the device. It would be nice for others to weigh in and let me know if it's needed. If not, I can totally remove it.

Also, in the other ROM thread, I made, it's even easier to root - you just grab one of the pre-rooted ROMS and drop it in SD card...the system does the rest. Mind you, this is for the UG007.

Failed to set prot mask (Inappropriate ioctl for device) ??
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] webwalk®:
nice tutorial.. while finding the best way to work my ug007 i stumbled upon this thread via armtvtech.com

currently i only knew this tutorial to root the device, but looking at yours ill give it a try first.

you cant install custom roms without flashmode, cant do flashmode without opening device.. or did i get it wrong!? talking about the ug007

actually you can install a custom rom once you are rooted without opening the device, here

ehm.. im still preparing to root, i guess you hint at the android sdk?

if not ill holla back at you and complain why you didnt write it out in first place :p

but very good to know that i skip alot by "almost" only installing ubuntu to a vm
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] SLotman:
I may be missing something, but I couldn't get this to work on my UG007 :(

psneuter didn't work for me, gave me an error about 'invalid ioctl' or something. But the strangest thing is that "adb shell" already shows the # in the prompt.

To confirm my suspitions, I also typed "adb root", which returned "adb is already running as root".

So I proceeded with the rest of the instructions. No errors appeared, installed Superuser and I can see su and busybox in system/bin

But when I download root checker it says it wasn't properly rooted. installing terminal and type "su" says permission denied - and that's it.

Am I missing something? I'm new to this rooting thing, so please don't be angry with my noobish questions :o
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] SLotman:
I managed to do it - but *not* by following this tutorial.

I used this: armtvtech.com/armtvtechforum/viewtopic.php?t=28 (Cant post links yet, sorry!)

Only ran the "TPSarky-VonDroid-Root" bat, and presto! I had root on UG007.

I even fixed the changing MAC address problem with wlan.ko from armtvtech.com/armtvtechforum/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=632&start=10 (link on page 2). I just copied it to /data/local/tmp, set permissions as rwr--r-- and then used root explorer to copy it to /system/lib/modules - now I have wifi signal every time I boot the device, and don't need to mess with my router config every time :)

I also manage to get xbox360 wired controller working. xpad.ko on /data/local/tmp and then insmod /data/local/tmp/xpad.ko - just connect the joystick after that, and it will be recognized. Only problem is, after a reboot I have to insmod again.

I tried doing the same thing I did with wlan.ko, but nothing happens - system won't load it on boot. Am I missing something here?

MK808, MK809 [model T002], and the MK802 III anyone?

Hi,

Thanks OP for this information.

I have a Samsung S3 [my first android device] which I rooted with no problem, but am a total noob when it comes to these android sticks.

One can say they are very similar, so I wont be completely in the dark. OK, now that we got that out of the way...

Can anyone please confirm whether they have used this with the MK808, MK809 [model T002], and the MK802 III,

I have ordered these from 1 from amazon and 2 from ebay and am expecting delivery shortly, therefore I just want to make sure before I go bricking them one by one...

I notice that they all have RK3066 Cortex A9 chips but are manufactured by different companies. The ones I see on eBay, although they all bear the same code MK8xx, they all look very different! I presume the MK8xx code is a universal model?? just like 80486 was to the PC? given the case does this method work universally?

I intend to set them up with XBMC media centres and to use with a Xbox controller. Any advice on the best way for achieving this would be nice too.

Thanks

:good:

I decided to install SuperSu and that's how I found out it was rooted.

Hello,

the psneuter attached to the first post doesn't do anything to my ug007. I have the same error others have posted here and haven't gotten a reply about.

To unlock, I used the script that's mentioned in a post above, TPSarky-VonDroid-Root. If you google that, you'll find a download link amongst the results.

Can you elaborate a little bit what you mean by renaming "su"?

I'm having the same issue..

Both su and busybox are having the same permission -rwsr-xr-x.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] ageerer84:
I configured one of these at work. Upon using the terminal app and typing in su I got the # sign. They seem to come from the factory rooted already.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] ildar_prophet:
Not exactly: this particular su can be used only from adb console, or at least that how it was on my tablet. So you need to replace it with a Superuser apk's su to get all features of rooted android. You can get one e.g. from FDroid

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] ageerer84:
Not sure what u mean by on your tablet. Android devices don't typically come rooted but I was surprised to have root access via terminal emulator on this stick PC. I just took it out of the box and definitely didn't have to go through the adb interface on a computer to flash superuser or what have you. Is this just me or is this a typical experience with this particular device?
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] ildar_prophet:
Not 100% true. This is so for brand devices: Google, Samsung etc. But many Chinese devices I've seen had either adb run as root or su run without limits.

Oh! then that's not like in mine.

Typical to many-many Chinese devices.

Hello all, so i have a prestigio pmp7100d3g and it`s impossible for me to find the driver im looking for it for days now and could not find, so i cant root it via some program. But i can get into cwm (thats nice because i should be able to flash supersu through cwm) but when i tried to apply supersu.zip it failed to install, now thats what i dont understand. Im not a stranger to flashing, i have an i9000 for almost 2 year`s and i flash roms daily. Anyone have any ideas why i get an error trying to install super-su 1.04v and my tablet has android 4.1.1.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] ildar_prophet:
I still don't get it: which ROM you have problem with?

And driver you are writing about - is it the Windows driver for your tablet? Did you ask at your tablet's user group about it?
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] TheWeeknd:
There is no thread for my tablet yet, i meant Windows driver, and i contacted support, it seems i have some corrupted file and i should do a factory reset to fix the problem. And i said before that i

have cwm, but i was wrong i have stock recovery so i cant flash supersu.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] ildar_prophet:
1. About driver: I see your 10" tablet is RK3066-based. You should get any of the RK3066 drivers. It should work. Though I don't use windows, so unfamiliar with all its caveats.

2. When your device is seen without question mark in the Device Manager, you should do this to get adb working.

Good luck.

Ohw buddy calm down don't be a badass. Sure cool for your IT friends. You must be new right to showoff to be c00l on the 1337 d3v t34m.

The reallity is no, you're not.

Point is this must be copy/paste work and/or if it is the same get it approved? You don't know how many people try to backdoor **** with payloads that gain root and in that way subscribe to services what cost load of f*cking $ g!

FYI

Android.Lotoor.A: A Trojan that attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in the Android operating system to gain root privilege.

I have to reserve engineer your crap first before i will even execute it. I aint trust nobody. It could easily be backdoored, not saying that it is because i wont waste my spare free time on this. But it could be!

Wondering how you got that **** flagged like a Lotoor must be c/p work and not your own stuff if you have no good excuse. Anyway you did a good job on that part ;)

And yea of course i know they flag it because this could be used in android malware too. But if it is compiled, what do you want to do? USB debugging must be enabled and adb is needed? And yes it is true public stuff that behaves like often gets flagged too.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] digitalhigh:
English must not be your strong suit, eh? It does say right in the OP that I was mostly just rewording another tutorial based on my personal experience and a little bit of extra knowledge from the ROM I've released on a weekly basis for the past year or so.

You had to reverse engineer it, eh? Good. Good for you. I'm very proud of you. It was pointed out that it's a pretty commonly used exploit. Be paranoid. But Google is also this pretty handy website that came out a few years ago that lets you look up stuff before you go being a tool on a post where somebody was trying to help others.

I'm going to go cry in a corner now. I hope you're satisfied.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] NiTrOwow:
Since when is a way of rooting a exploit, rooting in this way normally should be changing some permission and nothing more. And no have not read the OP because i don't need to know how to use it and stuff like that. Google, who doesn't know that spy-engine these days, must be new if he/she doesn't know it. I either use another search engine i don't like it if all my keystrokes get recorded for the government to check it out if they want at any time.

And once again English is

not

my native language. Deal with it.

You don't have to be proud on me or cry for me because that is nonsense. I was just making clear what MY opinion was. I'm not trying to say that you are LQ or something, because you're not, it was just my opinion. Try to be a bit more mature in your next reply too without all the crying stuff and nonsense, i want to avoid low quality off-topic trash. Such a waste of time and nobody makes a benefit out of it. Just totally not worth it.

For your information. I will leave this childish discussion, will no longer reply on it.This not worth my spare time.

If you want to talk to me about related subjects just shoot me a pm i'm ready to answer it. What i nicely ask from you is to reply without the BS.

That's all there is mate.

Have a nice day!

Based on your post, I checked my MK808 and it also turned out to allow root access already. Saved me a bit of hassle..

:cool:
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] arromdee:
There's another method (buried in a system specific forum on this site) at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1886460 . That method is even better because the exploit uses only adb restore so you don't need any specially compiled program such as psneuter at all.

I tried it on my Aoson M33 (RK3188-based) with 4.2.2 and as I reported in that other thread, it gave me root over adb but su and SuperUser wouldn't work. This turned out to be because the version of su/SuperUser supplied in that thread had a bug; since I did have root over adb, I could just replace them with other su and SuperUser versions that work.

The exploit will probably be fixed at some point, but I would imagine that's true for psneuter as well.

http://liliputing.com/2013/03/koush...superuser-app-for-rooted-android-devices.html has a link to download the zip file. Just copy the Superuser.apk and armeabi/su on top of the ones you already have.

This assumes you do have the same issue as me, specifically that you do in fact have root over adb (otherwise you wouldn't be able to just copy the files).

I don't remember if I also had to set permissions on the files, You might want to check the permissions on the existing versions of the files first.

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] Abuhuraira007:
Hello.

I am trying to use a rooted Android device, using Terminal Emulator, to manually root another Android device, which is stuck in a bootloop. Both devices are running Android 4.2.2 JellyBean.

Because the target device is stuck in a bootloop, I cannot root it using a root app such as KingoRoot, Kingroot, or similar apps. Thus, I can only root it manually using adb.

I see where someone wrote that this thread is obsolete, but because the device i am trying to root is running Android 4.2.2, it shouldn't be obsolete for that device.

I have tried this method, but i have encountered an obstacle.

Everything works until I get to the line:

./psneuter

I get the following response:

Failed to set prot mask (Inappropriate ioctl for device)

I have read the thread, and I see where others have previously received this error message, but I don't see where anyone posted how to fix or address this problem.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
