Telstra T-Touch Tab aka Huawei S7 root

Hey guys, just got my hands on one of these suckers, it runs 2.1
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get root?
Im also looking for froyo, however dont expect it soon, manufacturer is working on it.
Sent from my S7 using XDA App
I second davidcampbell! We need froyo here
The root method is the same as the s7.
download z4root from market and root, after wards install busybox by titanium backup and you are set.
The app2sd mod works for this device since it is similar to the sony x10 on 2.1 but is risky because i lost wifi aftewards. So just explore until we get some real developers working on it hopefully cm6.1 port but after huawei realeases the recovery.img and source to mess around with though.
being able to overclock to 1ghz wouldnt hurt either.
S7 Bootloader?
Has anyone figured out how to get into the bootloader for this device?
Havent been able to through any apps \ commands. Just go to a black screen and thats it, and recovery sends you into factory settings for your device
I only know that pressing back key and call\send key when when powering on the device puts it into update mode.

Zomg, nice, thank you alexisprz, it's rooting time
I really wish Android had a better term for rooting, it sounds like I'm either breaking it, or trying to cram my man bits into it some how.
Will this affect my ability to use the manufacturers update to froyo in the future?
UPDATE: z4root worked great, I installed busybox no problemo, very happy forum member here
sir i just bought one telstra touch tab can you plz help me to debrand it and unlock it i also have jtag too

[Q] removing BT5 arm off xoom

Hey, I installed BT5 arm on the Motorola Xoom wifi and i would like to know how to completely remove it from my device. My device is rooted and i have tried to delete the whole BT5 file with astro file manager and absolute file manager but neither of them worked. I was wondering if anyone knows another way of doing it.
I tried deleting it with commands in terminal emulator but its a read only file. Wouldn't chmod help with that? If so how would i use it?

Go read the backtrack 5 thread. There is a link on how to remove it. That really should be the first thing you check before asking
ok thanks, ill do that the next time i have a problem
I couldn't find it. I think it might be a tiamat BT5 img and i have the remover tool but im not quite sure how to use it. I just flashed it like i would do with a rom but it says installation failed. what would i do to fix that?

Common knowledge - system must be set to RW
Here is an alternate route- manually
How To:
ADB Shell Folder Removal - (we will use BT5 as an example)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1. Connect Xoom to pc
2. Boot into recovery
3. Toggle to internal storage as /sdcard
4. mount /data
Enter adb shell via pc
(cd to file location) in this case BT5, is in the sdcard directory
Code:
Code:
cd /sdcard #
(once typed, you will be at.... /data/media prompt)
if after the above command and you are not at the /data/media prompt start over)
Code:
Code:
rm -r BT5
(BT5 is the stubborn Folder)
*Side note ... This works for any other stubborn folder that you want to delete as well...
USE AT YOU OWN RISK - MAKE SURE YOU DO A BACKUP FIRST
If this was helpful Hit The Thanks!
it didnt work it said that rm failed for BT5, permission denied

I looked up on google how to mount system rw and thats where [email protected]:/ # mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system came from. then i tried rm -r BT5 after that and it was still denied. so i tried to
do chmod 777 BT5 to give all permissions and then when i tried to remove it again it was still denied.
I looked up the permissions of the file and its set to rwxrwxr-x. so chmod apparently didn't work

mount -o remount, -ro /system
mount -o remount, -ro /system/xbin
mount -o remount, -ro /system/bin
put apps in folder apps on external.
should you have different location then you can change line accordingly
I got this in tasker, source is xda, not me...
I can export as app, just reply with locations adbd, busybox pm, and route of external sd card.
but using this code in terminal should do it
You need root busybox and such. and permissions, set as you like
