Rooting Your Verizon Ellipsis 7 Tablet

Tablet Rooting using Framaroot

This is the easier of the options, but doesn't work on devices running the 4.4 KitKat update.

Root Using Framaroot

Download and install Framaroot onto your device, tapping Open when it's finished. (Note: You need to have Unknown Sources enabled in the security settings)

Inside Framaroot, make sure Install SuperSU is set and tap on the Boromir exploit. Your tablet should either reboot automatically or request one. After that, you're done! Update your SU binary in the SuperSU app and be on your merry.

PC Rooting Using SRSRoot or Kingo

This is honestly the hardest way to do it because of the way that drivers work. If you're on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1, you'll need to disable Driver Signature Enforcement.

Disabling Driver Signature Enforcement on Windows 7

Reboot your PC, spamming the F8 key once you get past POST. This will bring you to a window with a list of options.

Thumb your way down with the arrow keys and press enter with Disable Driver Signature Enforcement option highlighted.

Disabling Driver Signature Enforcement on Windows 8/8.1

In the Charm menu, click the power icon to open the power menu.

Holding the Shift key, click Restart.

In the blue screen titled "Choose an option", click Troubleshoot.

On the next page, click Advanced Options.

Now click Startup Settings. On the next page, click the Restart button on the bottom.

Your computer will reboot into the Startup Settings. Here, you'll want to tap the 7 key on your keyboard to boot with driver signature enforcement disabled.

Installing the Tablet Drivers (Download)

If you take this option, you're in luck. I've already modified the installer batch file to work on Windows 8 and 8.1 systems by adding a couple of lines that it was missing for build detection. This also means you don't have to work with the hassle of trying to set your tablet to CD-mode, which is a pain in everyone's arse for some reason. Just download the Official Verizon Ellipsis 7 Tablet Driver ZIP folder using the link below and run the install.bat file included inside.

Installing the Tablet Drivers (CD-Mode)

Plug your Ellipsis into a USB port on your computer. In the notification panel, there should be a message titled "Connected as..." Make sure this is set to Built-In CD-ROM mode. (If you tap the option, but nothing changes on your tablet or PC, reboot the device and try again. Also, make sure that USB Debugging is disabled. This generally helps things along.)

On your computer, open the CD Drive Toolkit drive in My Computer and open the TabletDriver folder, choosing x86 or x64 depending on your OS, and inside the Infs and Unsigned Infs folders, right-click each Setup Information (INF) file and click Install. Windows may warn you that the drivers are not digitally signed. Install them anyway. (Note: you can use the install batch file, but on Windows 8 and higher, it will fail due to the Windows version being "unsupported". If you copy the folder contents to the desktop and edit the batch file, adding the line

for /f %%i in ('ver^|find "6.2."') do echo Win 8 && set osrecognized=1

for Windows 8, and

for /f %%i in ('ver^|find "6.3."') do echo Win 8.1 && set osrecognized=1

for Windows 8.1, it'll run)

Installing the Tablet

Go to the Developer Options settings menu (if it's not available in the Settings, go to About Tablet and tap the Build Number until the toast reads that it's enabled) and turn them on using the slider in the upper-right, tapping Okay on the warning message that comes up.

Scroll down to the Debugging section and check the box for USB debugging, tapping Okay out of this warning message as well.

Plug your tablet into your PC, going into the storage settings and, in the top-right corner, clicking the menu icon and tapping USB Computer Connection. (If in the notification panel you see that it doesn't say "Connected as a camera" try rebooting your device. You may need to re-enable USB Debugging as well)

Tap to change the connection type to Camera (PTP) or Media Device (MTP). This should make your device available to ADB.

Root Using SRSRoot (pre-KitKat)

Download SRSRoot onto your computer and open it when it's done installing.

Click the Root Device (All Methods) button and wait. If it installs Framaroot, attempt the Framaroot method above. If it fails, continue to follow the instructions it gives you. (Note: Your device will restart several times, and I mean several)

Root Using Kingo (all versions)

Download Kingo Root onto your computer and open it when it's done installing.

Click the Root button once it's detected your device.

When it's done downloading the scripts and running them, your device will reboot. Click Finish on Kingo and on your tablet, click the Allow button on the notification that will appear from SuperSU.
