Made my day!!!

Thx so much for this....

Think I'am i heaven :D
[Sony Tablet S] the.fuzzy.guy:
rooted and installed a.i.o. bootloop prevention that - as i discovered *after* applying it - lowers the apparent version and then is almost compulsory to turn off OTA notifications too.

question: if we ever get a new jb build (let's say 4.2.2), applying the OTA will work (possibly unrooting the device) or we risk tablet *bricking*?

thanks in advance

The OP will not make such information available in the future. I'm tired of having to listen to me afterwards what I had to do and not to. I just wanted to point out this possibility of the root it goes with the motor chopper program. Neither I wrote that I did not create the programming itself! I just found out that you can the Xperia S Tablet rooten safely with this tweak and where this information is known here.

Anyone could decide for themselves whom and whether it Thanks!
[Sony Tablet S] condi:
Agree. Everybody who is interested in rooting Xperia Tab should be thankful to djrbliss for explot,

and to YOU for finding out that it works with tab, because after all you have also taken risk of bricking your device.

Just remember guys that Motochopper was not intended from the beginning for Sony device.

Nobody knew that it works with Sony Xperia Tab. xxliftsupxx took risk, and thx to him now everybody can benefit with root.

No more blabla, no more offtopic,

thx xxliftsupxx for your find!

newb here

I just want to be sure that can i unroot my device easily after this root? Can i restore it by using settings/reset to factory. Since i cant find original rom can i return to my original rom?
[Sony Tablet S] jappaj:
Yes you can un-root easily. What rooting your device is in essece, is only few extra files placed to your filesystem:

/system/(x)bin/su

/system/(x)bin/busybox

/system/app/Superuser.apk (or SuperSU.apk, depends)

Delete these files and you are unrooted without a trace (though busybox makes some symbolic links to itself which needs to be removed also). But factory reset won't do it since it won't touch /system. You need to manually remove the files or use some script for it (I think there's unroot script in AiO). There no "original" rom to return, rooting does not mean you have changed your original rom to something else (though sometimes to root people just flash modified rom to their device but that is not possible with XTS, you still have your original rom with those extra files).

Edit: Of course if you have modified system files etc. (ie. you have set ro.secure to 0) after rooting, changes remain after unroot and you need to revert them also. AiO and motochopper won't do this though. Of course if you have installed any tweaks using AiO, then again you have modified some system files and you need to rever those changes also. But point is, just plain root without other changes are easily reverted.
[Sony Tablet S] emremutlu:
I understand thank you. i just dont want bricked device and want to get ota update in future :)

I am looking for freshly rooted JB device, to which you did not use flasher, ever. Device, which was bought brand new, then upgraded to JB via OTA update and then rooted. Thank you :)

Got it, thanks!
[Sony Tablet S] saf4xdadev:
Works like a champ. A few errors in executing moto because it found apk's already installed on device from being rooted before.

But it rebooted perfect and all is good.

Tested and restarted about 9 times the legal limit and no problems.

Thanks to xxliftsupxx for finding motochopper and thanks to djrbliss for creating motochopper.

Oh yeah....applied rescue backdoor tweak and disabled update notices from AiO 6.2 after ota 4.1.1 and moto root and it seemed to work without incident.

OK, I'm sure it's been answered, but with this brick, it's hard to tell which version is rootable !

Android version 4.1.1

Is this version rootable , using the method described in this thread ? And thanks in advance !

Before the JB update, if that's what you want to call it, I was running 4.0.3 5a

Hey bro, when i donwload the us version of xperia tab, the zip file is corrupted. I cant even open it. Any help? Thanks
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
The file is not corrupted, it is encrypted and is to be used as is.
[Sony Tablet S] jimbohurt:
Oh dang. Well thanks. I already used the flasher tool instead and im glad it worked but its super ghetto with no remote app and such. And also motochopper doesnt work on it for some reason so no more root.
[Sony Tablet S] saf4xdadev:
I think you can use the AiO 6.3 install rescue backdoor tweak then just reinstall JB using OTA JB automatically through update on tablet and then use motochopper to reroot???
[Sony Tablet S] jimbohurt:
Great idea but can i install a rescue backdoor without root?
[Sony Tablet S] saf4xdadev:
supposedly motochopper will root R6b....so I've read?? Scratch this...I read above and see you tried.
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Nope. But how could anyone break their tab without root?

In your case tho... Flasher preroots jb and installs back door. So download official jb and install that. Then motochop away!

Also see signature below
[Sony Tablet S] jimbohurt:
how can I install official JB? because I've already used the flasher tool which installed some really ghetto version of JB where the remote doesn't work and there's no small apps anymore including no remote. Can I flash stock Jb without root? Thx dude
[Sony Tablet S] jimbohurt:
Yay!!!! To anyone who cares, what i did was use the AllinOne tool to 'unroot' the device (even tho it easnt actually rooted) AND THEN i ran motochopper and it worked :)

Hanging on adb shell /data/local/tmp/pwn

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

Hi - I'm a noob, so apologies in advance if I ask a dumb question.

I've tried running Motochopper on my Sony tablet S via run.bat and it hangs at the same place that it does when I run it manually via cmd prompt:

adb shell /data/local/tmp/pwn

[+] This may take a few minutes.

So, it's taking more than 20 minutes, which I assume is not right. My Sony is unresponsive during this time (unsurprisingly perhaps). I need to power the tablet off and back on again.

The tab has the latest build, and I've been waiting for the root solution to come out for this build. USB debugging is all good, PC and tab are communicating properly via adb.

Anyone got any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm a noob who is out of ideas...

Thanks!
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Build release r5a, latest build for old tablet s is not rootable. Jb for newer xperia s is
[Sony Tablet S] darrengilmore:
Thanks. As I said, noob. I know it's been said... but it's very uncool that Sony won't allow this to be rooted. It must be obsolete by now!

One reason I was trying to root was because I bought an Anker ultraslim bluetooth keyboard and it won't work with the tablet s. I think it's because it doesn't have an Apple Hid and apparently I could fix that after rooting. If anyone has any more ideas about fixing this I welcome them!

[Sony Tablet S] the.fuzzy.guy:
question: how to unroot the xperia tablet s?

one possibility is - I guess - using stifilz' original sony updates & condi's flasher (gods bless you people ;) )

does any "softer" method works? AiO maybe?

(Download the Motochopper and run the run.bat)[/QUOTE]

For those trying to do this from an Ubuntu 13.04 system, thought I would share my findings.

After getting the Android SDK installed, and attempting the "adb devices" command, I was still getting the "?????? permissions missing" message.

in order to fix this, I had to add a line in the /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules so that the Sony Tablet S USB device would have proper permissions.

Here is the entry to make for this tablet:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="054c", MODE="0666"

After this, reboot, and you should be able to see your device listed after issuing the "adb devices"

Then execute the motochopper/run.sh script for a successful root.

I'm curious if anyone else is having an insane battery drain just from Using the screen. this is my first Android device after switching from an iPhone so I'm not sure if it's normal but with auto brightness I still get 60-80 percent battery drain. I have a Us AT&T version of the S4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] LeKtRiCzzz:
Having a 5 inch 1080p screen will be the biggest battery drainer on the phone currently im getting 3-4 hour screen on time which imo is amazing
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kylecore:
If you're looking in the battery stats then yes, the screen always consumes the most battery out of everything.

Its when an app consumes more battery then your screen you've got some problems.

Its really not insane battery drain, its normal if your screen is on all the time. think of a laptop that s not plugged in it will go for days or hours sitting closed with the screen off but still on but with the screen on it draws a lot of power and your battery life soon goes down to 4 hours.

The percentage it is telling you is also misinterpreted. Its not telling you that 60%-80% of your battery is consumed by the screen

Basically if your battery is at 80% and its saying 80% of the battery is used by the screen its telling you that so far out of the 20% currently used of the battery 80% was by the screen and 2% by facebook and 6% by browser ect.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] TwistedMexi:
Screens have always been the biggest drain on a mobile device (laptops included). If you want to minimize this (even though it is absolutely normal) you can try going to the Power Saver settings and enabling the "use low power Screen" or something along those lines. I've set that on mine, noticed a bit of a life increase, haven't seen any difference in the screen... so seems like a win-win situation.
[HTC Droid DNA] jacktackle:
Hi Guys

I just got my hand's over the Droid DNA.

trying to port OPB stuff and make it look dashing :p

ok here i pulled the dialer from his them and it works like a charm.

do try it.

all you got to do is, with the help of Root Explorer move your current phone.apk and dialer.apk to a safe location incase if you want to revert back

copy the attached phone.apk and dialer.apk to your phone, i guess you already know where is the location. if not

system/apk

after replacing these two apk's set permission as rw-r--r-- and reboot.

and there you got your new dialer. if it says network error just go to mobile network and search for the network only for the first time. you don't even have to do that. simply wait for some time and a msg will pop up saying use gsm mode. say ok. and there you go all is well.

so guys enjoy! i hope One Page Book do not mind using his work. he is generous! a great guy!
