Root 4.2

METHOD 1 (RECOMMENDED)

_________________________________________________

thanks to Gnurou

"So, I have finally updated my SHIELD rooting method to support Tegra Note 7 as well, so you guys don't need to install weird programs on your PCs:

https://github.com/linux-shield/shield-root

Rooting by itself is quite easy, you need to have adb and fastboot on your system then:

1) Enable USB debugging in the developer options and plug your TN7

2) Download https://github.com/linux-shield/shie...7.img?raw=true

3) In a shell, issue "adb reboot-bootloader"

4) In the same shell, go into the directory containing root_tn7.img and run "fastboot boot root_tn7.img".

Rooting will take ~15 seconds and the tablet will reboot. You should then have SuperSU installed and working.

Note that these are not exactly the instructions mentioned on the README file of my Github repository. That's because TN7's bootloader is not interactive as SHIELD's for the moment, I hope this will be fixed.". All thanks to Gnurou

4.2 Chinese root method

METHOD 2

______________________________________________________

Ok so for starters the tegra note does come with an unlocked boot loader so that a big plus. To root I followed these steps..

"There is another method to root the tegra note easily if you know chinese......

You may download the software called Jin Shan Mobile Assistant at the site below:

Once I was rooted using the method above I installed Supersu from market and it replaced the superuser from the above method.. I then removed all apps that were installed from using the Chinese root.

STEPS

__________________________________________

The .exe file to download is about 30mb.

Once you download the file run it using Windows.

Open the program after installation.

Make sure USB debugging is checked on your device. (FYI to get developer options go to settings about tablet and press on build number until a message pops up saying you have Dev options.)

Plug the tegra note into your PC and the program should then recognize your device at which point you will see the root option.

Click root and magic...

The root program will install it's own version of superuser but don't worry I will get to that.

Once rooted go to Google play and download Supersu by chain fire then open it. You should then be prompted to install.. It will say another superuser app is detected and ask to replace..

There you have it feel free to ask away anything on your mind

If I was a help to anybody please throw me a thanks
