Xposed works fine with the modules I have tried on my 4.2.2 Venue 8 so its not an x86 issue. Some stuff I have read has suggested that Xposed can cause bootloops if a module fails to install/load properly, but I have never actually witnessed it.
[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
I have never used xposed I just be came hip to it while working on Intel and the v7 never had root since I've bought it and my other device until i rooted it the other week is a xt907 Motorola RAZRM. Could a module that doesn't support 4.3 be causing their issues? That's my best guess still haven't looked at it I've been working on other things.

[Dell Venue] irony_delerium:
Thanks for the root! Nice that it works on other Intel-based Android devices as well.

Got it going on a cheap Apex tablet (model TM785CH). After a week of searching for that one and finding nothing, I started looking for threads about other Intel tablets and came across this one. Hopefully someone else finds this useful.

Probably the same one. I found it for $100 at the local Office Depot. No, it doesn't have GPS, though it would be nice if it did.

I'll do that later today. I assume that's likely the MMC partition with either droidboot or the kernel in it...

I tried to Root my B1-730HD device with 4.4.2 Android version and I can't get it to work.

Here my step by step procedure:

1) Extract myKIT_BATCHv1.1.x.7z in myKIT_BATCHv1.1.x folder

2) Put SDC_INTEL2_ROOTKIT in "mykit-downloads" inside this folder

3) Run run-me.bat

4) Install ADB Drivers

Enable USB Debug. Plug the Ubs cable.

5) Type #2 to run myKIT_BATCH v 1.1.2d

The screen turn green and I get the ADB ONLINE Status message

6) Type A1 to run RootKits

7) Choose SDC_INTEL2_ROOTKIT

8) Type R2 to choose Root with Super Su

9) Type ACCEPT

The device turn Off and Reboot in DroidBoot mode.

The last line in tablet screen said FASTBOOT CMD WAITING

In the desktop computer appear the line Waiting for device and all things stuck at that point.

Nothing more happens and the tablet is not rooted.

What I was thinking, if we converted the Linux fastboot binary to android, and the start_recovery script, then we should be able to root and run recovery without a pc, run fastboot and scripts from other android device, cell phone or tablet.

Venue 7 Tethered CWM Fails

My process was as follows. Use stock 4.2.2 images to flash to stock. Tried with 4.3 and 4.4. 4.3 fails on fastboot write. 4.4 fails on recovery and fastboot flash. 4.2 is the only one that will flash all of the stock images. Then I use the kit to gain root and install supersu. Then I try the tethered CWM and get the error that it can't write to system/bin/cp. So.... how do I flash fastboot? or get the one I need?
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
I use 4.4.2 with unlocked boot loader, I had the 4.3 dev edition fastboot installed so I could adb shell while in fastboot this version errors on flashing cp, So I flashed stock fastboot 4.4.2 and it is able to flash cp without error.

Can't you upgrade to 4.4.2 via OTA update?

sent from my kingSing T1 via taptalk
[Dell Venue] tomtweber:
I updated to 4.4.2 via OTA just fine. Now I can flash stock factory 4.4.2 with all img files completing successfully. I am able to boot into CWM and successfully create a backup. I was also able to use adb pull command to get the files to my computer.

The problem is, I cannot restore the backup. It fails with an error while restoring /system. If I try to run it a second time, I get an MD5 mismatch. I checked the hash of the files on my PC and they all pass. I can use a push command and put the files in the proper place on the SD card and attempt to restore again, but I still get the same issues repeating from above. I've tried recovering and restoring in the same session and restarting CWM, pushing the files to the SDCARD and trying it again. Still doesn't work.

I also notice that if I go to reboot, it says it does not have Root and do I want to give Root, but I already ran and had root prior to running CWM. Is it optional whether you have root or not when running this CWM? Is there a certain SU you need to have to see root in CWM? Does CWM need a special root once you boot into it using adb commands or something?

Or is it not possible to restore /system with this CWM for Venue 7 3730? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Please help! Thank you so much.

Its a Sandisk 2 - 4GB micro SDHC card. I freshly formatted the card using the tablet, and I've formatted it with CWM. I've tried backing up to ext sd and internal sd.

That sounds like your system backup is too big, what have you added to system? You will need to remove stuff from system til system backup is smaller than system partition.

I didn't add anything to the image after creating it. It is the standard image that CWM creates. The size is 949MB. I would think if I can make the backup from the system, it should be able to restore the system as well.
