Any news about this ota firmware update for Dell Venue 3740? I'm assuming that if I allow it to install, it will break root. Anyone tried it yet?

I too received it. I downloaded it and when i rebooted the tab, a dead android guy showed up with exclamation mark on his stomach. But after clearing cache, everything went back to normal.
[Dell Venue] ant-iphone:
Thanks! I updated with no problem whatsoever (as yet). Spoke way too soon! Root Analyzer claims device is rooted, and that /system/xbin/su and /system/bin/busybox are present, but /system/bin/su is not. SuperSU & Titanium Backup cannot acquire root privileges anymore. I'm woefully not experienced or knowledgeable enough to know what to do to try to solve this. Any suggestions?

Hello!

I have just bought a NuVision TM785M3 - which, unless I'm mistaken, was referred to earlier in the thread as being a similar model. Once ADB drivers were installed in Windows 7, I just enabled developer mode on the tablet, ran Kingo ROOT from the PC, and it was rooted in less than a minute..

Are there any home-cooked ROMs for this tablet, or a way to back up the factory ROM?

Hello,

it is my first time root'ing a device. I would appreciate for any help.

Can not get it done :|

Device: Dell venue 7 3730 wifi (android 4.4.2)

Downloaded kitkat rootkit, assetkit. After many tries got ADB driver installed at device manager. Installed intel android drivers.

So problem:

My device become unrecognized once it goes droidboot mode and program gets paused at "< waiting for device >". Any ideas/tips what am i missing?

Thanks.
[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
Use the tethered recovery method instead of myKIT_BATCH but your issues is most Intel devices install the wrong driver for fastboot so you have to manually go into device manager and install the proper driver.

rooted A1-830

Struggled for over a day with IntelAndroid-FBRL-01-17-2015, IntelAndroid-FBRL-05-16-2015-PTR, and IntelAndroid-FBRL-06-03-2015-PTR2 on my Acer A1-830 with an un-updated ROM (4.2.2, 3.4.34, Acer_AV052_A1-830_RV04RC01, build 0.009.05). I had minor success using T4 on the two latest scripts, CWM and TWRP, but in both cases, I was failing to mount my external SD card, and other critical directories, so could not install the su binaries.

I finally came back here and ran the Mykit stuff on page 1 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2681783).

I suspect that the drivers I was using for the ADB tether were part of the problem. I used Mykit to update them. The other ones I was using were from Acer, so I figured, "how can they be wrong?"

Anyway I ran Mykit_BATCH twice--didn't take the first time. Second time I tried to root, using the SDC_INTEL2_ROOTKIT, it rooted with no problems.

If and when I un-root, I will test the newer scripts again with the updated driver to see it that was the issue.

Thanks!

Have some caffeine on me...

Hi Social, i donwloaded this file and in the modem directory is a file called XMM_6360_MODEM.fls. It as 10MB . How do i flash this ? Is it a modem or a radio ? What is the fastboot command to flash it ?

would be really nice to get an answer.
[Dell Venue] genterminl:
[sorry I had to edit the quote to remove the URL, not enough posts yet]

First, I just want to confirm that this worked for my Acer A1-830. I had edited build.prop and not fixed the permissions, so got into a bootloop. This recovery finally let me apply an update.zip that fixed the permissions. The only problem is that the tablet rebooted into Demo Mode. I've disabled the demo video app, so it doesn't keep popping up, and all my apps seem to be working fine, but I'd really love to kill the demo mode and also to know why it happened. Apparently the only way to get out of demo mode is a factory reset, but I'm going to defer that as long as possible, and certainly do the backup I should have done already.

My only other comment on this recovery is that I'm using Linux as my host, so I had to manually pull apart the bat file and create a shell script to just do the necessary steps.

Anyway, thanks to everyone who contributed along the way to getting this working for Intel Android devices.

Not Working on A1-830

I know that I am not missing anything as I have tried using the CWM method and the ROOTKIT method for my A1-830 KitKat 4.4.2. Nothing has worked. If anyone could guide me through rooting this through Skype, or any other method of instant message method, I would appreciate that.
[Dell Venue] genterminl:
Well, I suspect you are missing something or you would have succeeded, although I admit not everything was fully obvious. My main question is are you using Windows, Linux, or Mac? I succeeded on Linux (tethered) figuring out each piece by pulling apart social-design-concept's windows batch file, which I think I referred to in an earlier post. Also - have you gotten any error messages, or just not achieved root? How have you checked whether or not you have root access?
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
You could have used my Linux version.

[Dell Venue] genterminl:
Thanks, I have no idea why I never found that thread. I'll check through it later, as I'm sure it would have worked on my A1-830. I've just started trying to compile the full TWRP for Intel, but it will take a while, since I don't have lots of time to work on it.
[Dell Venue] ajaygross:
I use windows. When I finish the process and go into supersu it says binary update needed. I try to install it multiple ways but it does not work. When I go into root checker basic the grant root access prompt does not appear and after a while it says root is not installed. Do I have to go out and buy a linux? Cause that would really suck.
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
My post was for the user that uses Linux, sounds like the root process worked, you are having a software problem with the su binary.

Try a newer version of su from chainfire.
[Dell Venue] genterminl:
I think the message from vampirefo was for me. I use Linux, but had only found the Windows stuff from social-media-concepts, not his linux stuff. That will make my life easier. Do you have any idea what Linux is? You can't buy "a linux" and you don't need one anyway. (Linux is an operating system, and free, so even if you do want to try it, you don't need to pay anything. There are even ways of trying it without having to reformat your disk.)

I'm no expert on this, but from your description, it sounds like you missed one of the steps. From my somewhat sketchy notes, once I rebooted into recovery mode, I had to flash four files. I don't fully understand exactly what each one does - but for me, it was twrp_hdpi_portrait.zip, recovery.launcher, fbrl.trigger, and UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip (which I unpacked from different original zip files). If you are using social-media-concept's batch file, be sure you didn't skip a step, and keep good notes of exactly what you do, if you try again. I'd have to go back and look through the batch file to check whether it comes with everything, or if you need to get any of the pieces (like SuperSU) separately, and then point the batch file to it, but I think it's the latter, so you really have to read everything carefully.

[Dell Venue] dawgdoc:
The dev stopped supporting this method long ago. He now has a tethered recovery method to root intel based devices, see here. It supports at least three Dell Venue 7 devices:

If you have a reason to continue using myKIT_Batch to root your device; common causes of failing involve drivers incorrectly installed, either device drivers or adb drivers. If the phone is being recognized, check device properties under Device Manager and see if there are any error/warning icons near any of the phone/tablet device entries. Such would probably be the adb drivers.

I used the MyKit_Batch method to root my first A1-830. When I purchased a second A1-830, I used the Linux method. I later used the Linux method on the first A1-830 to re-root it after resurrecting it from a damaged recovery by flashing stock recovery using adb.

Hello I just tried to install the recovery using the instructions here : http://xdaforums.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096

But it failed and now my tablet is stuck with a black screen and message "Security deny Err : Ox2017"

I can't switch off and reboot my tablet! I'm stuck. How can I do a hard reset like a hard reset for a PC? I can't reach the battery and take it off (not possible with this tablet).
[Dell Venue] dawgdoc:
It's probably just a difference in your terminology and mine: The instructions in that thread do not have you installing a custom recovery to the device. It does load and run the custom recovery from a temporary partition, though.

I don't see others reporting the same error. Have you enabled encryption on your device? That may be a reason for the error.

For a Hard Reset, hold down the power button for about 10 seconds (maybe less). Hopefully you can reboot normally after turning off the device. If you can turn off but not reboot, you may need to re-install the stock ROM. I believe there are links either to stock rom images in the first few posts of this thread or to a thread with the images.

I borked my first A1-830 installing a custom recovery put together for it, that was when I bought my second. I resurrected the first one by extracting the stock recovery from a stock system.img and flashing that stock recovery using adb.
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
Can you explain in detail what you did? Your error is not good, I have only seen that error when a person tried to fastboot flash a recovery on a device with a locked bootloader which is a big no no.

The person that did that was never able to recovery, the bootloader became corrupt. Hopefully that's not what happened in your case.

Hello, I don't know how to use this system much, I'm familiar with twrp, could you tell me the commands to install it? It's a little difficult here, please
[Dell Venue] jmjoyas:
The edit issues seem to only do with permissions of the file.

I have observed that after adb push, the permission of the file have changed to 666. With these permissions, the tablet bootloops. If the permissions is manually changed to 644, there is no issue.
[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
I know how a ramdisk works!!! I wasn't referring to editing /default.prop I just got back turning on my laptop.

While I'm working on this have you tried rootadb.apk it changes ro.secure and to.debuggable in memory emulating a insecure boot partition
[Dell Venue] kairnage:
It has to be this dev Intel Android. You can edit build. prop with the way jmjoyas says. Which is odd because that is the only permission that works, normally your can use 777 775 755 664 and they work. Normally any changes to the default.prop will be overwritten on reboot, unless you edit it in the boot.img. But I was just messing around and you can mount / rw and edit the default.prop and it holds after reboot. So we don't need to edit them in boot.img. I haven't tried it yet but in theory we should be able to make init changes like init.d support without reflashing.

Ok, so you know you can play videos but have chosen to blame the tablet for the problems caused by a couple of (probably) crappy/flaky apps ... is that reasonable?

I have no experience with those apps, but in general I have found most of the apps provided by Canada's "traditional" TV media company's to be crap on any device. They provide them to make their customers feel all warm and fuzzy about being able to watch anywhere any time, but they are really just check marks on the list of services they provide, they know that once you have subscribed you are unlikely to leave regardless of whether the service is good. I'm pretty sure AT&T operate with that philosophy as well...and the reviews of the U-Verse app on Play are generally far from stellar.

The Netflix app works ... because they only care about online customers and really do want you to watch anywhere any time, well except on a real Linux box of course ...
