My Windows 7 32/64 Bit Step By Step Guide

I have been up a long time trying to get drivers to work, running into 3 different ADB errors, and about 3 different Windows/Android Driver issues. I have tried all the different tips and it took quite a while to get to work.

Step 1: Create Folder on your Desktop (Label it something easy like "HP7 Root") *THEN save all the files to this folder for easy access

Step 2: Download this: TwerkMyMoto-1.0.zip from Here:http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2412292&d=1385320284

Step 3: Download this: Android SDK from Here: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Step 4: Download this: AdbDriverInstaller.exe from Here: http://adbdriver.com/downloads/ (May not even need this tbh)

Step 5: Install Android SDK (extract adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030 to C:)

Step 6: Run SDK Manager.exe from inside C:adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030

Step 7: Expand Tools > Check Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-Tools > Expand Extras > Check Google USB Driver

Step 8: Click Install (#) Packages > Make sure all of them have Green Check Marks then continue it. Let it run

I have you do this so you will get the sdk > extras > google folder (android_winusb.inf file we will be editing is in here)

Step 9: Browse to C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver double click android_winusb.inf

Step 10: Find the section:

;Google Glass

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_9001

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_9001&MI_01 <-------------

then click at the end of MI_01 then hit enter twice and copy and paste these lines there:

; HP

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_03F0&PID_5E1D

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_03F0&PID_5D1D&MI_01

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_03F0&PID_601D&MI_01

then click File > Save > Close out

Step 11: Browse to C:Users\*username*\.android then double click adb_usb.ini

my adb_usb.ini contained "0x2080" so at the end of 0x2080 <----- Hit Enter

Paste 0x03F0 below it > File > Save > Close

Step 12: ON the tablet > Settings > About Tablet > Tap Build Number 5ish times Till Developer Mode is Enabled > Hit Back > Tap Developer

Options > Top Right Drag "Off" to "On" > Find USB Debugging Check the box > Hit Home

Step 13: Plug Tablet Into your computer

Step 14: Run AdbDriverInstaller.exe when it detects your Tablet Click Install > Finished? Click Exit

Step 15: Click the start button type devmgmt.msc and hit enter *OR* hold windows button (2nd key to bottom left on desktop keyboard, usually

3rd from the left on laptop keyboard) and press R (run prompt) type devmgmt.msc and hit enter (my preferred method).

Step 16: Expand "Portable Devices" > IF you see a yellow /!\ next to a device that says "unknown android device" then Right Click it > "Update

Driver Software..." then click "Browse my computer for driver software" > Top Option > Click Browse > Browse to C:\adt-bundle

windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver > click next > It may warn you about installing the unsigned driver > Install

Anyway.

******NOTE: I personally didn't have the yellow /!\ I actually had HP7 under "Portable Devices" and I had a Android Composite Device under Samsung...etc. So I personally uninstalled BOTH and then Scanned for Hardware Changes then BEFORE the driver could be installed for HP7 it said "Android Device"...then I right clicked it and did the Update Driver option. (ANY IT professional knows how Windows handles USB drivers *COMMIES*, So anyways

Step 17: Open TwerkMyMoto-1.0.zip > Highlight all 3 files > Extract to > Browse to C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\platform-tools

(Basically extract it to that directory)

Step 18: Windows Button + R type cmd then hit enter *OR* click Start type cmd and hit enter.

Step 19: copy and paste: cd C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\platform-tools (IF you followed my instructions)

Step 20: In DOS (Black window) type: adb devices

***IF it gives you a weird device code and says device after, that means you're device is communicating with your pc.

***IF you get a Device offline, try a different cable or usb port (I read somewhere that USB3 has caused problems?

***IF you got the device code (*something like* but not exactly) YKB891BC170 device > then proceed to Step 21

Step 21: Copy and paste each of these lines separately and hit enter:

adb push su /data/local/tmp/

adb push rootme.sh /data/local/tmp/

adb push TwerkMyMoto.jar /data/local/tmp/

adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rootme.sh

adb shell /data/local/tmp/rootme.sh

adb reboot

adb shell /data/local/tmp/rootme.sh

*AFTER the adb reboot, don't worry about doing adb devices or anything. Just copy and paste adb shell /data/local/tmp/rootme.sh and hit enter

After this last command, your device will reboot after about 40-50 seconds, please be patient. <--- It really does take a few seconds

Step 22: Install SuperSU from the market

Step 23: Install Root Checker from the market

Step 24: Open Root Checker > When prompted for Root Access > Tap Grant > Verify Root. IF Green (aka Rooted) proceed to Step 25.

Step 25: Giggle like a little school girl

Step 26: Don't hold back your mental orgasms *If they last for more then 3 hours seek medical attention immediately*

Step 28: Click like on JJMAN1st post here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2548742&page=4

Step 29: Say thanks to the peeps who suggested modifying the adb_usb.ini file here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Android-Tablets-e-g-HP-Slate-7/ADB-drivers/td-p/2574571

I tried following JJMAN1st's post step by step and I couldn't get it to see my device AT all. So I mixed and matched instructions from different places and posting MY step by step.

Feel free to donate to the peeps who made the root possible. I'm just giving you knowledge.
