[Android General] konna280:
Ok, so the way i think i did it was as follows (someone please correct me if necessary!)-

1. This thread here should help get adb installed on your computer, which is the very 1st thing you need to do http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

2. Download and extract this modified usb driver to your PC desktop https://www.dropbox.com/s/um0s2ggqrdejvcw/modified innotab max usb_driver.zip?dl=0

3. With your innotab MAX turned off, hold UP and LEFT on the d-pad, VOL + and the power button for about 3 seconds. You should see the screen go on and off a couple of times (it will be a black screen - Nothing will come up). You should now be in recovery mode.

4. Plug the Innotab MAX into your PC using USB cable. When the driver installation screen pops up, choose install driver from location, and point to the modified driver file location on the desktop. Drivers should be then installed correctly.

You now have ADB access to your tablet, only in recovery mode. You can test by typing "adb devices" from a command prompt within the c:/adb folder, it should list your device

5. Start ADB shell using "adb shell" command on your PC

6. Get root access, using "su" command

7. Enable ADB for normal mode, using this command: "setprop persist.service.adb.enable 1"

8. You can now reboot the tablet in normal mode using "reboot" command

9. Install driver pack for rockship from: http://dl.radxa.com/rock/tools/windows/RK_DriverAssitant.zip

You now have complete ADB access to your tablet

------------------ Android Launcher ---------------------------------

Start ADB shell and type the following command:

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -c android.intent.category.HOME

This will move the android launcher to the foreground (if it doesn't work straight away, press up on the keyboard and enter to send the command again)

Now... to get full superuser access from within the andoid launcher (only do this if you are knowledgeable of the android operating system, as you run the risk of permanently bricking your device if you play around or delete anything you shouldn't!) you need to follow this guide (again, this may not be 100%, and could have steps that aren't needed at all, I just copied and modified the code slightly from another thread)-

1. Make sure you have ADB set up and working (wired or wireless).

2. Download and unzip the needed files here onto your PC http://d-h.st/BBk

3. Place unzipped files in c:/adb/

4. Run the following commands to put su in the proper place (while innotab is plugged into pc and turned on):

Code:

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /system

exit

exit

adb push su /mnt/external_sd/su

adb shell

su

cat /mnt/external_sd/su > /system/xbin/su

ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su

chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su

exit

exit

5. Install SuperUser and BusyBox:

Code:

adb install com.koushikdutta.superuser.apk

adb install stericson.busybox.apk

There you have it, full superuser access on your Innotab Max. PLEASE NOTE- Before you decide to make any big changes, or delete anything, it would be advisable to get a custom recovery installed (if that's possible) or at least ask on here for advice before doing so, to avoid ending up with an expensive paper weight. Only install a custom recovery that you know will work on the device (I don't think anything can be used yet) as you run the risk of losing the original recovery and killing the innotab if you install anything that isn't compatible.

Google 'Root Browser apk' and download to PC (also while you're at it you could find Sidebar Lite and Amazon app store apks). Copy all apks to a micro sd card. go to the android launcher menu and open explorer app, choose sd card in the menu and find the apks and install them.

It may not be perfect, but as far as I'm aware this is the way that I did it, and I can't redo any of my steps now to check if it's 100% correct as I've got both of the tablets set up now.
