Did you also have to update su binary?
[General Questions and Answers] n2locarz:
Yes. I downloaded both of the following apk's on my PC. Moved them to the /Download folder on the internal flash of the tablet

http://res.kingroot.net/msoft/webapp...ral_105001.apk

http://www37.zippyshare.com/v/59512856/file.html

Installed the KingRoot apk. It's confusing because I don't speak 中國 lol. I ran it a couple times by tapping the big ring. Then another app popped up - appears to be the Super User app.

I then installed the SuperSU apk. It auto updates and automatically removed the chinese super user app. I rebooted a few times and still have root

So far, no good...

At this stage it's just hitting walls and stuck in a bootloop. RCA/Venturer/ALCO 'support' is obviously screen-reading trained monkeys so you won't find help there. I've hit up the Hong Kong parent to see if I get really lucky, but everything I've tried is nothing but that bootloop.

I am getting nothing but the generic "ConnectionUnstabitil" error when trying to root with Kingo.

Anyone else get this?

---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 PM ----------

Never mind, I figured it out. Since I am running an Android emulator (Blue Stacks) on my laptop as well, this was causing problems with Kingo.

As soon as I quit the emulator (and exited its quick launcher) I was able to successfully root with Kingo.

I hope this helps someone else.
[General Questions and Answers] joeybear23:
I bought three of these. The first two went without a hitch using Kingo Root other than what I described in my previous post.

The third one had issues and perhaps has an odd device ID, because Windows kept installing HTC drivers for it automatically. I had to use the process you described in order to gain root.

I am thinking this is due to a slight HW/FW variation, and perhaps there are more than just two variations of this device out there....

For what it's worth, the odd one out came from the Wal-Mart Distribution Center in Cedar Rapids Iowa, and the other two came from Tampa Florida.

Can you boot to recovery? I made a flashable rom of my rooted/updated tablet. I am running: RCT6773W22-ANDROID4.4.2-6378-V28-V1.7.21

The power button is worthless on these. The only way I have found to recover is to let the battery drain. Charge it a little and boot to recovery (Vol Up + Power).

---------- Post added at 12:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 PM ----------

Very interesting! My unit is also the HTC version. It's detected as an HTC Dream. I was not able to root with Kingo or iRoot. Only King. Must be differences in the board. Anyone know of a detailed

output for hardware? I found this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dama.hardwareinfo&hl=en

It exports the hardware info to text. If you run on both models and perform a "dif", it may shed some light to the differences.
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
Whoa, where'd you get that? I've been able to get to recovery but just to apply Updates - but a flashable ROM or backup could work and should if it did for you! How'd you get it in there? And where can I find that file, even if ya just PM me with it! That'd get me back inside at least, which is better than a box of bootloops!

I made it. But it's not signed so we can't flash from recovery. :( But there is good news. Our RCA's have the same boards as the Cube U27GT. Someone discovered a method for installing CWM. Here is the article. If I get some free time, I'm going to give this a try.

http://www.mypizzatube.com/Articoli/2014-11-06_How_to_CWM_recovery_Cube_Talk_8h.html
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
This could do it! I found the Cube and MediaTek info before (see my other thread on this PIA tablet of ours LOL) so I actually have the whole U27GT ROM and all, stock! They have no issues publishing it unlike the morons at RCA (et al). Now this ROM should also give us a crack at the built-in-but-turned-off Bluetooth, GPS and FM radios in this thing (factory built by MediaTek in the MT8127A) along with 1920x resolution. So if this gents found the way for us to get around this last hurdle that could do it, nice find! I'm on that myself.

Happy holidays ppl!!! :sly:
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
Well, no progress. In my case it's a bootloop with only Recovery mode available as clamped as it is. So even those instructions presume I'm getting a connection and while I can install the USB drivers it's not staying connected or being recognized by any of these programs to even get it going.

I will note those instructions are stuff mostly done, 1-4 I have in the ROM I mentioned so there'd be no need to make the backup and all that. Even have the scatter file. But then I'm back to SP Tools and not connecting. USBdeview sees things, so I know it's there and installing, but again nothing constant. If I turn on the tab at all, the only way any sign of USB connection working is to go into Update by ADB mode which will only sideload.

If I keep it powered off I get all the Preloader stuff going, but I've ranged from just sitting there detected to 5 seconds before going to charge mode to now almost instantly showing the MTK USB, then going to charge mode and killing the USB connection on me.

I'm stumped! Not sure with all this software I do have if something I'm missing isn't even right.

UPDATE: Helps when you have the RIGHT stuff! What they've packed is modified, outdated or non x64. No wonder that wasn't working right...

How long does this Kingoroot take? I've been running it for some time now.. keeps downloading requisite dependency files and the tablet reboots now and then.. "checking root status" downloading, etc" over and over.. can I start over? Keep going? It just not going to work for me?

Seconds after I posted this it says "Root Succeeded!" ... LoL

The only real issue I have are constant reboots.. I got this tablet for my 9 year old niece and she loves it.. but up until last night it's been fine.. Now anything you do just about anything it will lockup and reboot.. No idea what's up with it.. Maybe an exchange? I mean simply opening Chrome will throw it into a reboot..

I updated the play store and have been updating individual apps.. so far so good.. Seems it was having trouble processing updates through the play store..

Does anybody know why certain apps aren't compatible with the Voyager? For example I want to install "Google Keep" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.keep), but it says its not compatible..

At first I thought maybe it needed a newer version of Android then 4.4.2, but my girlfriend is able to install it fine on her LG Tablet that also runs 4.4.2. So obviously its not the version. I am able to install it on my old lower rez Android phone, so it isn't an issue of screen resolution.

Anybody know why this can't be installed on the Voyager? (Or is it just not working for me?)
[General Questions and Answers] QkTreasures:
Just side load the apk file.
[General Questions and Answers] bcormeay:
Ok, that worked. Still doesn't explain why it happens though.
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
Happens because someone didn't pay the blood money to Google to get our tabs 'certified' so it would load things that work fine as straight loaded apk's. I've had to do a ton of those on various phones and tablets and certification takes so long many times the thing's worthless by the time it's stuck into Google Play. You may install Amazon Appstore and find apps over there work that say 'incompatible' on Google Play.

I just usually download the app I want from google play using my phone & then I use a app to extract the apk file & send it to my google. Drive. Then I just open drive on tablet, download & install apk file.

Walmart Exchange / Return Policy

I spoke with the manager at the Walmart that I purchased the tablet from. Walmart will exchange or refund it 2 weeks from Christmas day.

January 8th is the final day to return it. My local store has extras in stock in case you brick your unit.
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
I went the online route and it states exch/ref 30 days after? Not sure why the store would be different as they have had the 30 day policy also.

I'm past that mark myself, I got mine in the Black Friday run, but since I know I don't really have a hardware fault and mine ran perfectly before it went bootlooped I don't want to trade it in or even warranty it because of the damages I'm seeing in the shipment from China! If it's got a physical fault, ya I'd get it back right away and PHYSICALLY inspect the replacement they're trying to give you as they like to rebox junk!

[General Questions and Answers] Lukas2179:
If you boot into recovery there is an option to backup user data. It saves to your microsd card.
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
While that is a true statement, the Backup file is coded for the machine it came from so the rest of us will pop MD5 checksum errors when we try it. I've tried that, got that error, tried some published MD5 'fixes' and none worked. I have seen a couple great tutorials here at XDA on how to do a true ROM dump and the right files to use for each. I'll try to link back to here to help, it's far better than trying to explain it myself as I'm not that skilled with it. My background is from Linux servers, not as heavily into Android (yet).

[General Questions and Answers] TripFX:
sorry but none of those links have anything to do with making a rom dump that others can use. Those are about making custom roms not making a stock dump. As far as porting roms that's easy. However the issue with custom roms on this specific device once we put cwm\twrp you can't go back to stock recovery due to locked bootloader thus you won't be able to get stock rom updates or able to make it stock for warranty. The main thing is get a working stock img for people who are having rom issues and do backup or just to do a clean install.
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
Ah, I kinda figured the top two were like that but more reference.

But the last one especially was ROM from source? Source being a dump? Lemme dig some more, I had even downloaded some of the files from whatever I'd found but I'm having a connection issue beyond using ADB or the SD card. I didn't look at your profile on the left to see you had a clue, the other stuff I tossed in thinking it was someone with a working tab just taking a wild shot at it! Teaches me not to pay attention! LOL
[General Questions and Answers] TripFX:
lol source meaning source code not rom dump. my tab is working excellently aside from su binary wont update for some reason which isn't that big of deal as that can be fix when we get a working dump as you can just replace it in the zip before flashing or uploading already done zip. Once i know they are done pushing updates to this tab then i will go ahead and get a custom recovery and a modded stock rom up. that or if for some miraculous reason they post source and bootloader unlocker but that's like a 1 out of 1 trillion chance happening.
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
Gotcha, that'd be my Linux server admin side showing :)

I don't think they can post the ROM or sources that'd work for this sadly, because it totally appears ALCO simply bought the RCA name and created that call center giving them nothing but screen-reading monkey response cards. They've planted the HQ in Canada to avoid dealing with the US in much of this, yet most of the ops and 'service' seem to be in upstate New York. The worst part is these tabs are really nice for their price point and features, but it appears the boat they shipped over on went through some kind of Tsunami and tons got totally screwed up in shipping. So they're getting a crap reputation because of that whole setup.

The flipside is Cube, www.51cube.com, they've got all the support files right up where you can get'm and total support in comparison. But the digital signatures on the files aren't RCA'ed so they tank. I dug around inside the backup that was made to see if I could find that file or ID but all I get is MD5 stuff and mismatch failures on load. Those seem to be because it takes a snapshot of the unit it's on, so playback to another tablet would pop the mismatch.
[General Questions and Answers] TripFX:
ya its the bootloader. i know that you can still do a rom dump and use it with others with it locked if it's done right. wished they used crc32 instead of md5. crc32 is easy to fake the sig but that would also defeat the there purpose for a locked bootloader. As far as Cube brand goes i've know about it for a few weeks now u25gt-c4w model to be exact. I'm wondering if it's the same thing. but have yet to see if the mobo inside is gigabyte as well. if so then i pretty sure we could just use theirs. other specs is same. which is messed up as they underclocked the cpu to 1.3Ghz as well but least the state in there own product info when mediatek states its 1.5ghz and rca claims its 1.4ghz in there product info which it's really 1.3ghz if you look on the tab it's self. like cpu-z.

I am new to the whole rooting process and don't have much experience with it. I did install android 4.4.4 on a HP tablet a couple weeks ago.. but other than that little to no experience.

I successfully rooted the RCA 7 Voyager RCT6773W22 earlier today thanks to:

My whole goal in rooting was to install another version of Android. The game I want to play (Racing Rivals) says its not compatible with the Kitkat version 4.4.2

Anyone know what version of Android I should be aiming for? I don't want to pick one that slows up the tablet.. but I want to be able to play Racing Rivals on it.

Any other tips for a beginner in rooting would be great. Anything that will make the tablet faster or fix my compatibility problems?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

[General Questions and Answers] joeybear23:
Unfortunately your best route to get a different version of Android installed is to find a developer who has created a ROM for this device, and I do not believe anyone has done so at this point.
[General Questions and Answers] joeybear23:
FYI,

I have three of these. Rooted two with Kingo and had to root the other with the Chinese Kingroot app. After each I used SuperSU to update the binary and dropped the other root app.

One of the ones I rooted with Kingo has since lost root and I had to use Kingroot to get it back, and it is not allowing SuperSU to overwrite/update the binary. The other two tablets are fine at this point, but I am trying to figure out what happened. Perhaps my 12 year old did something, but I doubt it since she only plays a few games on it.

Updated to add: After several attempts and reboots, I finally was able to get SuperSU to overwrite/update the su binary and take control of root privileges and uninstall Kingroot.
[General Questions and Answers] PSCGOhio:
Still not sure if the mobo is a Gigabyte or just reads up as that to the tools that check. But the U25GT-C4W is the exact match I believe, quad-core and all. Other models of the U25GT are the original single and dual cores. I got that ROM, I can pop it up somewhere accessible since the Cube site's in Hong Kong/China and takes hours to suck the thing down! LOL Not the most interesting part is this sucker's APU actually is rated at a 1.7 but it's dumbed down. Same with the vid, it's 1920x and it's dumbed down to 1200x. Also the GPS, FM and BT are turned off, but naturally built into that same APU from MediaTek.
