Running Android ICS 4.0.3 and Build Number IMLL74K.US_epad-9.2.1.21-20120413
Every method of rooting I find has nothing to do with ICS, could someone help me on my marry way, I would really appreciate it. I just want to do a basic root, so that I can maybe change the kernal and pep up the CPU a bit.
Help would be rewarded :-D
ViperMod in the Prime form works for all but the latest firmware otherwise you have to downgrade first
And for future reference search first and questions go in Q&A not themes and apps

Sorry about posting in the wrong forum, I should know better, but I have tried downgrading and it does not work, it seems like once you are on 4.0.3 you are stuck. I just tried this method right here and got nowhere, it says nothing about an update being available...

Thanks and I did thank you, I am trying this now, I am guessing I want ICS .11, since that one is still rootable. I am trying it now, I cant believe I got this it was already on 4.03. Why do people upgrade just to upgrade... jerks.
I will let you know how this goes.
I think .17 is rootable with ViperMod also or you could just do Wolf's method 3 which let you install the recovery blob via abd and flashing the su afterward with cwm
Yeah, I actually went with the .11 Blog backup, and then rooted it without any problem at all, now just what to do, what to do... I do appreciate everyone who helped out, thanks much.

First off, thanks go out to: CrimsonSentinel13, paxChristos, and DooMLorD!
A couple days ago I tested DoomLorD's Xperia X10 Easy Rooting Toolkit [v3.0](zergRush Exploit) on my windows 7 vm after using my [Heimdall][UVKJ6] Back-To-Stock Heimdall One-Click.
Today I was also successful rooting from my debian linux vm using methods 2b and 4 from this page: [HOW-TO] Root Phones w/ Android v2.2.x-2.3.x (zergRush Method)
If you are feeling squeamish, there is also a noob friendly guide in pdf format available.
I hope you find this useful.
Cool. Gonna try it on my dads phone and come back. Thanks.

Great! Let me know how it goes.
I saw another thread where they had taken the same process, but ported to mac and linux. I might test that as well, and if it works, I'll update the op.

Well, I guess the SuperOneClick in the new link in the op now also uses the zergRush Exploit.

Hey, cool! I wanted to try a smaller set of testers at first
I'll post in the dev section after I get some testing.
For me, so far so good. Almost an hour on the new kernel.
You know you don't need this thread if you use that kernel.
If you feel like testing, check out: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11298-beta-kernel-testers/
Nothing fancy going on yet. Just stock kj6 from source with cwm+voodoo lagfix. I just want to build up a QA base for testing changes.
Don't comment about the kernel in this thread. If you don't have a rootz login, please PM me if you find problems.

Touchmate TM-MID810 Rooting Problem
Good day everyone,
I'm new here and I was looking up on how to root my Touchmate TM-MID810 Tablet.
So I tired the ways which were presented here but unfortunately none of them worked for me, also I tried using the Superoneclick v2.3.3.0 but it stucks' and keep giving me the same message (Not Responding) so if someone may have a different way or knows any other way which I can follow to root my tablet device it's be very generous from him/her to explain it to me and help me out here please; and I will be very thankful.
Waiting upon responding.

Your both in the wrong forums. Good look for a forum for your specific phone or tablet.
I can't find any thread that points to rooting droid xyboard 10.1 verizon 4g LTE model with ics update. I have the verizon xyboard 10.1 mx617 32 gb version in 4G LTE . I just got an ICS update but I don't see any info in rooting the device. if such method exists, please point me to the right direction.
Thanks in advance
Please post questions in the Q&A section. Thanks!
Thread moved.
I guess either no one wants to help me or no root option is available for this device on ICS at the moment.

if you still need direction...
I used the DroidRazrUtility (from Rosenberg I believe) one click today...was on ICS leak, flashed back to HC (donated to runandhide05 for the fast-boot files) and used Rosenberg's Utility to root, Version 1.80. You can find the fast-boot files in Xoom General here in XDA (if you need them). I Googled Roseberg's Utility, extracted, ran the .bat....rest is history.
i hope this helps you.
CJ
edit: sorry, after i flashed back to HC i updated my XYB to ICS from Motorola...THEN used the Utility...
thanks but it sounds complicated and risky to go back to HC and then root and then reflash to ics. I want a simple ICS root. but thanks, you are the only member who took interest in my thread.

I am so grateful for this site and for people like you. I have wanted to root the xyboard MZ 617 for a long time now. However, I cannot find a reliable method and am very new to rooting. I have been an avid android believer since the first itteration, but have never ventured into the wonderful world of rooting. I have done a lot of research and like that you use Rosenbergs method because he seems like one of the most respected devs out there. What I need, if you please, is a simplified breakdown of EXACTLY what I will need to do in order to root this device. It has been running ICS for a while. I have had a ton of glitches and hardware/software issues. Some of which were repaired by Motorola and the rest Verizon and Moto have pointed the finger at each other and the middle finger at me. I will be quite grateful for your help. Thank you

If you guys run into something like this, let me know. I am still around this section a bunch and use my TF daily.
@zak_2099 I suggest using EasyFlasher. Mine is a B70 as well, (is an SBK1) but once Wheelie was introduced, it didn't matter if SBK1 or SBK2. If you need any of the files that won't download for some reason, just let me know and I can upload them this weekend.
@baseballfanz Nice to see you around again. Been a long time. Hope all things are well with you.
Rom wan't boot
Hi all.
Relly i wanted to ask this in development forum, but I can't to some posting restrictiions for new registered users. So i'll write here, may be someone have a solution.
I flashed No-name CM10.2 nightliy on my tf101g, but it wan't boot, just showing me asus splash and stops. I used ROM from this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2402752
Why can be like that? CM10.1 also from NoName running now ok, but 10.2 just wan't boot at all. So i tried some erlyer builds and got the same result. Flashing process finished without any errors.
And also, there is no builds about a month, why and where I can get them? Should I build it from git repo?
Thanks.
Hi,

2. Installing TWP recovery (it seems this good for TF101 compared to CWM ???)
3. Which is best ROM for 4.2 ?
Your help will be appriciated and thanks for providing details
Thanks & Regards

Frederuco is the man to look for in regards to beginner guides. Try this to begin with:
http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...t/31927-frederuco-s-guide-root-rom-tf101.html
There are a few good ROMs out there but I recommend Katkiss.
I too recommend KatKiss. I am running the 4.3 flavor and it is just awesome IMO.
Have a look through that guide. If you have any issues, let me know and I will assist. There are other methods too like Thing O Doom's PERI tool if that doesn't work. The biggest thing is to make sure you have a USB cable that works with a PC. Otherwise you cannot root.
Stick with TWRP unless you want to run Android Revolution (based in stock ICS firmware). In that case use CWM. And do not ever use ROM Manager with your TF101.

I have a tf101 which I rooted successfully with Frederuco's method using EasyFlasher, then got my Other Half another tf101 for Christmas and EasyFlasher didn't work, PERI did (although I somehow managed to delete the stock ROM whilst flashing) which didn't annoy me too much as I wanted her to be running KatKiss anyway)
What's the danger of using ROM Manger with the tf101, I use to reboot into recovery though have never used it for flashing ROMs or such like.
