Has anyone heard of the Nextbook Premium 9? I am trying to root it, but have been unsuccessful with all of the current rooting tools (z4root, Androot etc) and have been searching the internet for anyone who has found a successful method for rooting.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is there any hope for rooting the Nextbook Premium 9?
I have a new Nextbook Premium 9, and it has been limited very tightly by Efun, and I cannot find where anyone that has posted on the Internet has managed to root it. The problem is the tight memory limitations (kills me having that much free space on the device and no access to it).
I have done all that I know to do: add a 32gb micro-sdcard, and used ADB to install some stubborn apks, and set the preferred target of installations and data to the sdcard. I moved everything over that can be moved (it has Android 2.3.1). I cannot fit the apps that I really need all at the same time. I can uninstall and reinstall from the backups on the card... a pain, and it limits its usefulness.
Not having Market is a pain, but I can live with that with help from Amazon and others. But it doesn't do me a lot of good as tightly locked down as it is. I have an Onda VX610W coming (if DHL ever decides to move it out of Hong Kong to me) with ICS already installed, but its too small for what I am using the NextbookP9 to do. I need the Nextbook for my presentations. It has the larger screen, and I just need it.
Please, is there anyone who can help me or who can point me in the right direction. I need help with this one. Thanks in advance.

Simular situation. A friend tried to root his with the 8p's root. While it worked the touchscreen doesnt work.
So how do I go about figuring out what driver I should compile and throw in the image?
I am still looking for a way to root the Nextbook Premium 9
The Nextbook Premium series are rebranded Kohotech Tablets, and I think I am about to dive into the nightmare of trying to get technical support from a Chinese company. Efun is 'less than' helpful, and the response I got to the request for help left me gritting my teeth. They are selling the new 10 inch Kohotech that carries Android 4 ICS. This is done before they fulfill their promise to upgrade the other Premiums to ICS. That would help, but not solve the memory problems.
I bought the Onda VX610W I mentioned, and even though the Nextbook has a superior resolution than the Onda and a camera, the Onda flies circles around it in performance. It came pre-rooted from the company I bought it from.
The Onda has ICS and the Nextbook Gingerbread, and the processor of the Onda is an Allwinner A10 (faster than I expected). The Onda came with 8gb internal memory (I have a 32gb micro-sdcard due here tomorrow), and the Nextbook came with 4gb and has an external 32gb sdcard. But the majority of the Nextbook's internal memory is untouched, with no way to move anything over to ROM without rooting. When you see the performance side by side, the difference kind of hurts when you consider what is in the Nextbook.
I think though, most of the operational difference has to do with the fact that the Nextbook is so walled up that it is difficult to access its memory and other parts of its hardware (having difficulties using its magnetometer). It just doesn't have enough memory to function well, and most of it just sits there idle.
I have a 32gb micro-sdcard in it, and have used the Android Debugger to have it default to moving a lot of the apps to the sdcard instead of internal memory when installed. It helps, but it is continually slowing or locking on operations that should not bottleneck it (doesn't matter if they are in internal memory or the external sdcard). I have to push the reset at least twice per day. What I am doing on it should give it no great grief, but it does. The Onda makes the problems with the Nextbook all the more obvious. The problem is that the screen on the Onda is going to finish making me blind I think. I need the Nextbook. I don't really want to have to consider this a wasted tablet.
I understand from other discussions that the Premium 9 is very brick-resistant. Its a good thing, because I am ready to experiment. If I just want to watch a movie, its okay... but if I try to really use it, it works about 1/4 of the time. It has good hardware, but it is just so walled up. Nooks are apparently easier to root than these.
If anyone can help, I would really, really appreciate it.

I have a rooted android running on the 9P ... just need touchscreen drivers for it
When you get it running... touchscreen and all, then please contact me again. I need the help. I have run into a glitch on the Onda and it is consuming my time right now... trying to avoid reflashing it, but it seems the best option. I can't keep my little hands off of things when they are working just fine it seems... always trying to find out what can work better. Its a life-long trend, and at this point it seems kind of useless to try and stop.
Anyway, whenever I find out why I have wifi connectivity and no network interface on the Onda, I am going to switch my focus back to the Nextbook. It is actually running better than it has run before because I unloaded a lot of nice apps to give it more breathing room. But it kind of sacrificed the purpose to which I got it. There is no balanced compromise with that one... I have to root it when it is possible, to free up memory and maybe to upgrade past Gingerbread. They are offering the new 10 inch tablet with ICS installed right now. I checked with Kohotech, and there is almost no difference in the Nextbook 9 and 10... even more alike than the 8 and 9, but ICS changes it a lot.
I have a device running 2.1, 2.3 and 4.0, and let me tell you... despite the obvious similarities of them all being Android, the 4.0 does some neat things the others just can't, and it is smoother.
Got to start with rooting the thing, though.
If you get the screen working, then I would like to hear more about it... thanks.
UPDATE: For some reason, the permissions on this page suddenly would not let me post a reply, which I really need to do. Finless on Freaktab.com has produced a working custom rooted rom for the NEXTBOOK PREMIUM 9. He also included the original stock rom in case of emergencies. I have not tried it, but according to others, it works. I just finished downloading the files and will try it tomorrow after a nap.
I request permission to post a new reply in this thread. If you will let me, I will post a link to the thread found on Freaktabs that has the solution. I will first try out the ROM myself though. I was about to sell this thing to a friend in frustration.
It has such a beautiful display, I think I'll keep it with the 1gb USER APP space and access to Google Play that he gave it. He said he could do more, but 1 gb will make the thing workable... especially since he got rid of the bloatware bogging it down. But there is hope for the Premium9 users now. I sent tech support at Nextbook an inquiry about upgrades to ICS as there was some real indication of an upgrade. They said no plans were in the works for upgrading the very bogged down unrooted Gingerbread ROM it comes with. GET THIS: they suggested that I buy one of their "new" series of tablets (like... 5 months after the Premiums hit the market) instead. Hey, just forget the $200 or so dollar investment and buy a newer one with ICS from us... also unrooted. No thank you. I have an Archos on the way and own an Onda. I don't think I want another unrooted bogged down tablet from Nextbook after just getting this one. Except for having 4gb instead of 8gb memory, the hardware in the thing is pretty sound. But it was the locked down rom that made it a misery to use. If it works out, I will post the results.

Certinally. Because this was passed to me I was responsible for returning a working device TODAY so I ended up buying a brand new one >.>
Any news regarding this Nextbook Premium 9 root + market? I will receive one this week but... it seems that I will regret having it...
It would be awsome if some dev put his hands on one...
I also own a Next9P and also would like option of rooting this device... Are there any devs. mildly interested in working on this... I have some limited funds if it would help.

Me too please....
Just tring to keep this topic alive as I would like to see developement on this platform myself. I got my hands one one of these lately.
I have managed to get a rom dump of the Nextbook Next9 NXM908HC
The romdump (done through adb) reported successful dump all exept config.gz where I wound up with 0 bytes. I read over there that the custom rom for the Next8p runs on the 9p but drivers are wrong for the digitizer on the 9p.
Here is a link for the dump on the Next9 NXM908HC if there are any takers for making a custom rom out of it.
http://isurf2.com/droidwork/next9/
A cyanogenmod7 version for it would be much appreciated, but I wont hold my breath.
--Brink
thanks for the dump. I will see what I can do over the next week.
If someone knows how to root...
If someone knew how to root this tablet maybe I could get a dump with the config.gz intact.
For those looking for rooted nextbook9
Head on over to freaktab.com. A fella that goes by Finless (administrator) AKA Bob has done us all a great service by putting together a rooted, debloated nextbook9 ROM.
I have tested it on my nextbook9 and found that it works.
BTW: When he says debloated he means it. This is positively the most stripped down ROM I have ever seen and I've been flashing custom builds since the windows mobile6 days.
If you found this information useful, don't forget to click the thanks button.

---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 PM ----------
Inside the custom rom found on that page at freaktab.com look for app injector. This takes care of the too stripped down to be usefull. With that you can add the market (Play Store) gapps and the other apps that come with the stock rom.
--Brink
I tried the ROM from Freaktab and it worked great. My 9P is rooted, I have the full android market. The ROM utilizes more memory, boots faster, and seems to run apps faster. What more can you ask for?!
So go to the link posted by Brinkley... Oh and BTW, thanks Brinkley, I followed the link from your post and that is why my P9 is now rooted.
Cheers, TooSlow
the freaktab rom is ginger not ics is there a root/debloat rom for ics ?
I have the Nextbook P10SE. I just flashed a few different ROMS for it, including a JB rom. only problem is, inverted screen and touch.
which of course renders it useless. Finless rom has the touch correct, but the image is rotated 180 degrees.
the JB rom found here on XDA (look for Rockchip ROM) has the screen oriented correctly but the touch is rotated 180 degrees
sigh.
try kingo root, that software does root almost every device that i know of. i have been there with a device that is unknown or limited and you cant find any thing at all, thats why i start to build my own stuff. Try kingo root that would be first step and then cwm .
All,
I have drafted this post hoping after reading that someone will have some concrete resolve to improving the performance of my tablet.
Background: I purchased two Asus TF300T's for my wife and I at Christmas looking to improving our mobility around the home and externally without lagging a lap top. I read plenty of reviews over a period of 1-2 years and settled on the Asus. Since Christmas we have had one firmware update. We are on Android version 4.1.1, Build# 10.4.2.18.
Current: We are highly disappointed with its ability to swiftly move through websites. I have taken off java script then rechecked it and the performance is very inconsistent at best to include on my home wifi. Downloading pdf files from some sights is nearly impossible. I can't find how to down load apps and other documents to my SD Card. The tablet memory is constantly at least 50% occupied with stuff i am not aware of. the best thing i can use this for is my email and a few other simple apps. No crashes just extremely poor performance. If I want to view an item on You tube, man it takes forever or it never loads.
At this point I am somewhat in remorse beliving I would have been better off buying cheap laptops.
Can anyone of experience please assist with helping me maximize the tablets and see the power and functionality I have read about?
I am not a software developer and have read about rooting yet I am not clear on how and what to do yet i do understands it voids your warranty.
thanks for your assistance,
Frustrated Asus TF300 users
To unlock your tablets potential, I highly recommend rooting and installing a stock based or custom ROM. I would also install a custom kernel. It will void your warranty but in my opinion, it was well worth it. Rooting only voids the software, not the hardware.
Here is the video I watched in order to learn how to unlock and flash a recovery using Fastboot. This video shows you how to flash CWM recovery. Many have had issues with CWM, including me, so I flashed TWRP recovery instead. I just substituted the TWRP info in place of CWM recovery. The second link I provide will be for TWRP. Also, this video shows you how to root your tablet. No sense in doing that if you are going to flash a rooted ROM. There are quite a few rooted stock based and custom ROMs available to us. I would go ahead and read up on them and choose one before starting the process.

It also has a modified kernel in the 3rd post down under extras which will allow the tablet to be overclocked to 1.7GHz.. The only issue with it is GPS. It has to be reactivated after each boot if you need to use it. As I mentioned above, there are quite a few ROMs available to us. I would just read through and choose the one that's right for you.

same poor performance
Hi, i too feel my Tf300 is very poorly performing. Glitches, stutters and apps closing down quite often. This is on 4.1.1 in UK and I have made no changes other than android updates.
I would love to have this thing run more smoothly like my GNex which is only dual core but cant see it happening.
Most of all i want to get a controller working to play Dead Trigger and ShadowGun.
Most tutorials for controllers say must be rooted. I would therefore like to root the TF300.
I have looked at doing it a few time but have seen warnings about not rooting if you have a particular version.
Is there a list or guide where i may look up the specifics of my TF300 and then know which root method to use for the best?
I dont have my TF300 handy but know its on 4.1.1 at minute and is a UK tablet.
any help appreciated.
I think this guide is useful and I may use it when the time comes:

So do i have to root if i want a controller working with the likes of dead trigger and shadow gun?
Also and when a new version JB or even key lime comes along will i be able to get the official version back on to tablet?
It should be possible to get the official version back on although I'm not sure on how to do that other than doing a full backup in CWM/TWRP before changing ROMs.
It depends what controller you want to connect to your device. I can connect an Xbox wireless controller to my tablet and I'm not rooted. I'm not sure on Dualshock3 controllers but I think it might be possible without root but I don't know

its the xbox360 wireless i want to connect.
I bought the usb dongle, plug it into the dock and it does some basic functions but does not work in dead trigger or shadowgun correctly.
I try to re assign functions in game but in dead trigger for example the view just spins around constantly.
what games have you played successfully with the xbox360 controller?
I had the same problem as you. I think the only game I've successfully played is Shadowgun Deadzones

thats strange as when i try shadowgun i cant get the left joystick to rotate the correct way making it unplayable.
did you do anything special?
I had the same problem as you on the original shadowgun but on the multiplayer version (Deadzones), i did manage to get it to work. I don't think this can be fixed by rooting or something so it might be worth contacting MadFinger with regards to the problems of using a wireless Xbox 360 controller on their games
asus is trash some people just get fooled by the brand
I think Shadowgun has been updated as it now works with controller great.
The downside now is that it crashes every 10 minutes.
Asus as a brand I am unsure about to be honest.
I originally ordered the TF700 through Amazon. I sent it back along with its replacement due to poor build quality. The screen was not fixed down evenly and creaked.
I decided not to chance the TF700 again and bought the TF300 from Argos, I had to change this three times before I got one that worked or had not manufacturing problems.
Now the tablet runs but for a quad core its glitchy as hell.
Simple internet browsing always comes up with a crash, most games are glitchy and crash very often.
might check to see what i can get for it second had as its mint with box and all original stuff and only 2 months old.
£400 with dock did see a bargain.
I am thinking that perhaps all android tablets run equally as bad?
i bought this coz i am always sitting browsing internet, playing odd game on my Gnex, i know find that i would rather pick up my phone as the experience is so much smother and glitch free than the tablet. That makes it kinda redundant.
Every android tablet is not as bad as the transformer. The transformer line of tablets have slow I/O issues. Installing a custom ROM should improve the experience

Thanks yet more questions
Thanks for your assistance. I know I successfully rooted my tablet as it tells me that in the upper right hand corner. I used CMW instead of TWRP yet really know issues with that yet.
I am unable to find the system files via es file manager and I am unable to find the root - sign or the build.prop files which i believe I am supposed to have. I have loaded super user yet i am not sure the purpose of that download as i never see it used unless it is a system app.
I don't have a ROM like, Clean Rom yet and truly need further assistanc to set up my system. As you can tell I am not a developer yet I experienced a lot of frustration with slow performance.
What I would like to have is the ability to turn up the clock speed, not have the system continually looking for wifi and to know what files i can delete off my system and which ones I shouldn't. If I could have the system just open up straight to my system opposed to the Asus opening load that would be great as well.
I have a quite abit to load yet if I could get a good step by step instructions of what to load I believe I can follow it as I did get the system rooted. Looking for a patient developer to work me through some customization of my Asus TF300T.

I installed TF300T-No_SD_notification_v1.0 and now I get a constant banner "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" with an "ok" selection. Has anyone experienced that when loading this software that is used to get rid of the SD notification icon? If so, how do I fix.
For those who have sent me links and words of wisdom as I voiced some frustration due to ignorance thanks. I found XDA University and learned how to flash ROM and Kernels. I was able to finally understand how to load the zip files from my computer onto the tablet and then access them through Clockmod. It was easy. Unfortunately I have this bug to fix yet after that I believe if I can find the right ROMs, Kernels and apps to enhance my tablet experience I will be happy.
Any idea ho to fix the banner described above?
