ok guys, here you go:
my phone doesn't make any ADB connections anymore with my mac.
points i already tested:
- reinstalled all the android dev tools
- flashed several rome on my sensation (tried: Beast rom, pyramid, arhd)
- reboot without fast boot
- usb debugging is active!
when i'm typing in terminal: "ADB devices" --> i get no devices.
where is the problem?
i already used adb while s-off my device, but now it won't work anymore.
just remember, i'm using a MAC, so i haven't got a pc!

You're right.
But I also don't know anything about BAD or FASTBOOB or anything like that. I don't like reading. :[

go into devmgmt.msc and see if your phone shows up under adb interfaces. if not, could be 1) bad usb cable, 2) bad usb port, 3) bad adb driver.
Check the drivers, you may need to update them

how 2 do that? i mean what do you mean with devmgmt.msc(device management...?)
1) usb cable is good, the original one. also tried different usb cables, it doesn't matter.
2) usb port is also ok, other devices running out of the box (f.e. dvd drive oder dslr)
3) adb driver already updated via "Android SDK and AVD Manager".
i installed Android SDK tools, SDK Platform tools, sdk platform (--> is there sth. missing?)

no sorry...won't work..
getting the same:
Code:
adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
also tried without fastboot rebooting.
there are news guys:
just got an windows 7 personal computer for a couple of days.
installing the sdk and usb driver just worked fine.
why it doesn't work for mac?
already installed all new...
You may also check the cable you're using to connect the phone to your Mac. I was getting the same problem when trying to use the cable from my car charger - the phone was not even visible on the system list of USB devices. Using the cable that came with the phone did the trick.
(although if you used the same cable with Windows and it worked, my hint won't be of much help)

please remember - i'm using a MAC!
so finally i tested my device with several computers at the university.
i just found out, that the problem may been caused of my installed mac osx lion - but don't ask me why!
on the mac of my prof (also osx lion with latest updates) it worked out of the box...
--> so i'm gonna making backups now and will format my hard disk and reinstall lion again.
i'll give u feedback again ;-)

ok, just found out where the problem was caused. it was EasyTether!
this will help:
Code:
If you have installed EasyTether on OS X, the EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext can prevent adb from communicating with your mobile device.
If you use Easy Tether, BEFORE you plug in your phone run:
sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext
(or unplug/plug your phone in after)
If you are done debugging and want to use EasyTether again, either restart or:
sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext
If you want to remove the EasyTether kext so it never hassels you again:
sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext

Both of those lines are checking for the "#" instead of the "$" to ensure that it has root access.

I picked up the downloads for the Qmenuroot. Installed the ADB drivers referred to in the OP. In my Win7 system's devices manager, I see the ADB driver for the Kindle Fire HD listed as working correctly. Also, the USB driver is in & working, and I can transfer files to/from the kindle. (though I had to re-install the USB driver after I installed the ADB driver)
The problem now is that when I type "ADB devices", it tells me that there are no devices available. Unplug/plug in the USB connection, wait for a bit, "ADB kill-server", "ADB devices" and still no devices available. I have a CMD prompt open in the correct directory. Tried rebooting the kindle, unplug/plug in the USB connector, all kinds of combinations.
I'd like to root this, in anticipation of a JB build for it, (or even ICS) but without ADB, I don't see how.
Has anyone had an issue like this that they have solved? I haven't mastered ADB in any sense, though I've used it to good effect before to un-brick my TF101.
TIA;
Patrick

Interesting, I don't even have that file. I assume it is used to block devices so you could have one plug in for charging and ADB would just ignore it if it is not in the list.
Thanks, sparkym3
After I verified that ADB could see the KFHD7, I ran the 'RootQemu.bat' that was part of what you published. While it took a bit of time (about 1 minute) between reboots, it worked flawlessly. The Kindle Fire HD 7" I have is now rooted. I'll be looking next to replace the launcher, (probably Apex) and scrape the ads off of this.
Pat
Thanks
Thank you so much for this... really makes it easy and fast. However i was worried during the installation haha my device kept rebooting and it warning me to reconnect so i thought i was doing it wrong.
Well it seems that I messed up. Big time.
I got to step 3, and that's where all hell breaks loose. I get message on the cmd window which reads Cannot find specified file, and everything goes downhill from there. There's no more updating whatsoever. But that's not the bad part, I tried messing around with my kindle, and everything is now incredibly slow. The lag is unbearably bad. I'm in process of resetting everything to factory default at this moment.
EDIT: Just reset to factory default, everything is smooth again, but be careful when trying this exploit, things can go wrong!
I'm thinking there was something I did wrong, if this seems unfamiliar I'll list the steps I took in trying to manage everything. But I know you're thinking I did this on impulse, hence my low post count, but I have been lurking the kfhd subforum for a very long time now and have tried my best to educate myself. Sorry.

That’s the result of the entry in /data/local.prop. If you remove that file and reboot, it will fix the lag.
I tried running the tool and it kept getting hung up on step 3, telling me something along the lines of file not found. I was able to root using the manual method though.

I suppose my method fixed it regardless
I'm thinking the reason my root backfired is because I wasn't as systematic as I should have been. Rooting my samsung vibrant allowed me to be a little more sloppy since there are backups and flashing is a cinch.
EDIT: This my 3rd time trying to get this thing to work, I get stuck on Step 3 "The system cannot find the file specified."
I really can't see how I'm managing to screw up this badly. Must be something stupid on my part.
EDIT2: Turns out I was using a crumby network directory the whole time, but even still it did not work. Fellows: Put the QemuRoot folder somewhere on your desktop, it's easier there. But after that the prompt would close immediately after step 4, so that took me a while to circumvent. Anyway, I ended up skipping to step 4 to get the superuser to work. I'm fairly sure everything DOES work, but it's hard to test right now.

Hi sparkym3
Thanks for all your hard work! I tried it though and it went through all the motions as if it was doing its job, like expected. But at the end of the rooting, I have superuser on the kf HD but no root access! ES explorer and Titanium have no root access. Tried rebooting several times. Still no root access. What could have gone wrong?
Cheers, mate!
Ok,
I'm not new here but Im new with a TF101...
I have 3 rooted devices at home.
Now when I plug the TF that I bought used, it dosent get detected. I mean at all!
Not "!" yellow in windows and nothing it linux, no noise nothing.
I have usb dev checked...
Now, do I need usb 3.0 to just get it detected and root it using xp or linux???

I have the same problem. I sent my tf101 to the Asus service center to have it repaired. When it came back it would connect to the PC. After a few months it would not connect. Same problem. It appears to me to be software related somehow. In my case the cable has nothing to do with it. None of the suggestions on this or other forums work. Asus does not respond. Maybe Jelly Bean will fix it. Or maybe not.
are you able to ./adb connect to the asus via usb? if so then that will tell you that the problem is not the cable, it's not the usb version, it's not the device hardware. its likely a driver install issue in windows. i would boot into android and make sure that android debugging is selected in the developer settings menu. then try an adb connection. im not sure about how to install all the stupid drivers in windows because i do everything in linux and its soooooo much simpler.
f it is in fact the hardware cable or port that is not working properly then you can always move files to and from the device over wlan connection, with either adb tcp connection, or using some file manager such as es file explorer. just remember as long as you can get an
./adb connection to your android then anything is fixable. ADB IS YOUR FRIEND. get to know it well.
same problem here...tried everything except format the pc (running windows 7)
I have a simple question for the people WITHOUT problem connecting tf101: when you connect the tablet (mtp or not) what do you see on the screen of the pc? something related to autoplay? Are you able to copy, move files to and from the tf101 like a usb stick?

I dont ever connect my devices as mass storage to he computers at all. i just do everything via ./adb usb or ./adb tcp connections over wifi. or i use es file explorer setup as an ftp server on my devices and move files around that way if i need to. but i went ahead and pulled out my windows asus tf101 drivers and sync app and linked them for you at the bottom. my advice really is to lose windows and stick with doing everything on android with linux. soooo much better.

ok so adb over a tcp connection it works pretty much like adb over usb except your connection is done over the network. so lets say your tf101 and your computer are both on the same WLAN. you can enable enable adb over tcp and connect to it with the computer over the network. however to enable adb tcp connections you need to already have root.

I have both Linux and Windows systems. My TF101 does not connect on either machine. My assumption is I have a internal problem. I have tried two different cables and systems. I need to ROOT the TF101 and upgrade to Jelly Bean. From this post I am told to use ./adb commands over tcp and I appreciate that, but I need to have a rooted TF101.
The ultimate question is can I root the TF101 without using the usb connector? I suspect not, but will defer to the expert developers.
I have tried with settings in various selections like MTP "yes" or "no", Developer USB "yes" or "no" or both on or off at the same time. I have loaded and unloaded Windows Asus Sync and USB drivers many times.
The strange thing is if I am attached to the keyboard, I can see any USB thumb drives attached to the keyboard including my USB serial adapter. I would think USB would not work if the cable does not work. Also if anyone has a link to instructions for loading ADB on Linux Mint 13 64bit, I would appreciate the link.
Thank you in advance.
beware of usb cable
Hi,I personnally own a TF101 sb50.
I had some trouble with usb. Tha cable was ok for charging but didn t register correctly under an usb connection ( it showed up and got kicked out in windows didn t register in lsusb on linux)
If you check the diagram for the cable, it s well endowed there 's resistance inside the cable, and multiple connection.
Depending on your version it doesn t use the same pin, even if it's the same cable.
You can buy a cable on ebay for around 10 euro in europe ( i did it s ok) or buy it cheaper from china(no idea about quality).
to sum it up even if your cable work with another TF, it doesn t mean your cable is not faulty ( i have bounce a nano osci on the faulty cable , and it showed no apparent flaw.) and buying a new one was the solution for me.
good luck for rooting (sb50 :: no need to adb)
The ADB thru WiFi solution worked perfectly for me thankfully, and I am one of the many others who have been having major trouble getting Windows and Linux to recognize the Intercept.
Not sure if this is a duplicate post somewhere, but here's my version using Linux:
1. Go to the Play Store and download the 'ADB over Wifi Widget' app.
2. After installed on your device, the app should be on your home screen. Tap it once to toggle on. You should see an IP address and a port #.
Note the IP address, as this is the address of your device.
3. Open a terminal in Linux.
4. CD to the folder that contains your ADB files. (example: cd /androidsdk/platform-tools)
5. Enter the following code:
chmod 755 ./adb
./adb connect <enter IP address here without brackets of course>
6. You should now be connected to your phone.
Hope this helps...

ok when you say that the tf101 doesnt connect in either your windows or linux machine, what do you mean exactly? you mean it doesnt show up as a mass storage device or an MTP device? and have you downloaded and installed the android-sdk in linux? and when you connect the tf101 to your linux machine, do yo uhave usb debugging enabled in the developer settings menu, and are you using the "./adb devices" command in the linux terminal from your /android-sdk/platform-tools/ directory?
also you should be able to flash a custom recovery which will enable you to flash custom rom without using the usb cable. theres a couple files that you need to put on your tf101 in the /sdcard/ directory first.
one is the recovery blob and if you want to keep the stock rom and kernel but just root it then youll need the superuser zip i have included both of them at the bottom.
for starters you need to install a terminal emulator app on the tf101 from the play store.
then once you have the recovery blob on your device in /sdcard/ you can continue. (remember /sdcard/ is the internal memory not the micro sd card)
start the terminal emulator on the tf101 and enter these commands.
mv /data/local/tmp /data/local/tmp.bak
exit
(open another terminal window on the tf101 and enter these commands)
ln -s /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 /data/local/tmp
exit
(now reboot the tf101 when it boots into android start the terminal emulator app again then enter these comands)
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryblob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
exit
(now you should have a team rogue recovery flashed to your tf101)
reboot your tf101.
now you can hold the vol -down button while you power on the tf101 you will see a message at the top of the screen that says soomething like "Checking for RCK" when you see that press the vol- up button right away, this should boot you into the team rogue recovery where you can flash custom roms or just flash your superuser.zip to get root.
hopefully this makes sense and hopefully it works for you.
remember you have to extract the recoveryblob from the zip folder before you move it to the /sdcard/ on your asus. the superuser.zip can remain zipped though.
I had the same problem:
windows will not notice my transformer (rooted).
( usb debugging is on, android 4.0.3 with Android Revolution HD 3.5.1.)
i know in the past it works.
adb list ( of devices) ist empty also. Same Problem with the two cables i have.
can you give me a help what i can do?
Sorry for my poor english
kind regards

ATTENTION: PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
It has come to my attention that under certain circumstances when the Kindle HD's get stuck in a bootloader bootloop the information on the "boot0" block of the internal storage can be ERASED and RESET.
This partition is special and contains ALL of your device's hardware specific information:
- Wifi MAC address + Encoded Secret for registering w/ Amazon services
- BT MAC address
- Serial #
etc
FOR BACKING UP THIS PARTITION:
Code:
adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0 of=/sdcard/boot0block.img"
adb pull /sdcard/boot0block.img
Place the "boot0block.img" file with the other files that you backed up in the original instructions for safe keeping.
FOR RESTORING THIS PARTITION:
(do not do this unless you are absolutely SURE that your boot0 block got wiped out -- hopefully you never need to)
This is done via adb from your PC while the device is in TWRP recovery or in the Android OS (not fastboot):
Code:
cd <your safekeeping files>
adb push boot0block /sdcard/boot0block.img
adb shell "echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro; dd if=/sdcard/boot0block.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0;"
THIS FILE IS UNIQUE TO YOUR DEVICE AND CANNOT BE REPLACED OR REBUILT FROM ANOTHER DEVICE. DO NOT SHARE IT WITH ANYONE AS IT CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DEVICE USED BY AMAZON DURING REGISTRATION.
very interesting Hashcode,thanks for the information :good:
Odd, I can't seem to find the file after I pulled it with ADB.
EDIT: I didn't even assign the command an output location to begin with. LOL.
Thanks for the info.
How can I access KFHD via ADB if CM10.1 installed.
I can't see my device in device manager only as a media storage or sth like that.
Should I remove KFHD adb driver and install the google driver?
Or just using the hidden trick in cm10.1?
"Enable Developer options in your phone (Settings > About phone and tap Build Number until you are a developer (about 7 times)
Set root access for APPS and ADB in: Settings > Developer Options > Root Access
Enable Android debugging at the same page (Developer Options). Enable ADB over network if you need.
Check if your Settings > Security > Unknown Sources is checked. you will need it to install over ADB."
Yeah...it helped

Just turn on ADB debugging on the tablet, and plug it into the computer. On the computer, open command prompt, use the command "adb devices" to see if your ADB is working.
Other than that, I don't know what happened in your post.
Ok i really can't figure this one out, I used adb many times while testing KFFAide tool so I am 100% sure my adb drivers are installed correctly, But since i switched to cm10.1 (Thanks hashcode) ADB cannot recognize my device anymore, I have enabled ADB on my KFHD and when i connect it to my pc a small notification appears "Android debugging enabled" but when i use "adb devices" command nothing shows up!
Can anyone help me with this i'm completely lost here!

Leave the device plugged in, go to Developer Setting and uncheck ADB debugging, then check it again. You should see a prompt, select OK for both.

Why don't you guys try this, go into CMD while connected with the device (ADB debugging on), and type "adb devices" to start the daemon, then try the commands. Other than that, I don't know what else to do.

Nope. Just get "List of Devices Attached" but no serial number. Checked device manager and it's showing up as a portable device. Probably will reinstall them and see if that solves it.
On a side note:
if we ran these commands in terminal emulator on the device, would that be sufficient?

Normally you would notice WiFi doesn't work under any circumstances same for BT. And when on Amazon's software it won't let you register.

I can't get ADB to find it either, think i'll revert back to stock to get the file then go back to CM - I notice though on CM turning USB Debugging on doesn't change anything in device manager, it still stays connected as a media device or camera, depending on which you have ticked in storage setting *shrugs*
Thank you Hashcode

No don't, just type the command hashcode provided in terminal emulator and you'll find the backup in your sdcard, just copy it to your pc like normal!
You can do it from the terminal without typing ADB. that may be why people are confused. Start with hashcodes command but start with "su -c" in the terminal.

I've had the tablets for a few weeks and would like to root it. It has android 4.2.2 but doesn't have an option to connect to pc as it doesn't have a micro usb port on the tablet. The charging port is proprietary and uses a AC adapter style cord similar to a laptop one so it doesnt have a usb end. Am I just SOL?
UPDATE: see post #8 by groumfi
UPDATE 2: thanks to member Taiz for the info. You can now root using an app found at www.towelroot.com No cable required

Hello,
Apparently these two pages present two procedures for root any android by the sole procedure that allows currently Slatebook: recovery> apply update from zip (only root, no kernel or rom change):

Thanks for that, mate. Looks like that someone has tried this but it doesn't work.
Alternatively it has been suggested that root access can be gained from the updated file from HP: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...dlc=en&lc=en&os=4153&product=5400087&sw_lang= but unfortunately I'm not a developer nor technically inclined so I wouldn't know how to extract it. However the file is available from the above link if someone know how to grab and tinker with it.

a few of us are anxiosly waiting for this great tablet to get root access. I think the only way to motivate senior xda developers to buy this tablet would be if Hp drop off the price to $299.

hoho....how much we must wait that? One year? two?
we just need to get HP signature to sign update.zip file...
some informations
Here is the detail or the official OS that we got with the slatebook 10 x2 :
Android version 4.3
3.4.57-g61ce4c9
[email protected] #1
Wed Dec 11 00:41:15 CST 2013
Build number
4.3-17r20-03-23
Many of us can not connect dirrectly the device to a PC. So it will be better to root it with usb flash drive or a SD Card but an apk like Framaroot would the best. I'm posting this to help anyone trying to make this for all slatebook users. There is still hope people!
Hp still don't give us the ability to purchase a usb wire. The. French clients service said that no wire is available. There is still hope to find other devices with the same kind of proprietary port but the next problem will be to find a device with the same kernel.

How to unlock and root HP SlateBook x2
Hi there,
We finally achieve root on this SlateBook x2. Full story here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2402681&page=59
Sum-up
Buy the HP proprietary cable
Unlock bootloader
Boot CWM recovery I built for the SlateBook x2
Push SuperSU thru sideload
Detailed steps
You need to buy the Micro-USB dedicated cable, HP spare part number 728141-001
You can find it at http://www.eetgroup.com/. Frenchies can order it here: http://fr.eetgroup.com/i/728141-001-HP-MICRO-USB-TO-USB-CABLE. The guys are located at St Ouen (93) and it is possible to pick-up the cable at their office to save shipping costs. Even w/o shipping costs I had to pay 57,30 € which is quite expensive for such a cable.
Anyway, once you have the $$$ cable, proceed as follow to root the device:
You'll need adb installed and working onto to your computer. This could be done by installing the full Android SDK or a light version from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42407269
Normally, the package should install the naked USB drivers. If this not the case have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386956 and download and install the naked USB drivers
Into your home directory (ie: C:\Users\<username> for Windows or /home/<username> for Linux) you should find a .android directory. Check the adb_usb.ini file within this directory and ensure that content is 0x03F0
Then, enable USB debugging into the Developper options of Android parameters
Once done, connect to the PC with the dedicated cable, wait for a moment for adb drivers to install
Once installed, check that adb can detect the tablet with by entering: adb devices
If it is detected, reboot in bootloader mode: adb reboot bootloader
Once in bootloader, unplug / plug again the tablet and wait for adb drivers to install. Then unlock the bootloader: fastboot -i 0x03F0 oem unlock. WARNING: this will reset your tablet to factory default and loose all your data
Once bootloader is unlocked, reboot your tablet and perform the initial android setup
Tun USB debugging on again and connect the tablet
Reboot to bootloader: adb reboot bootloader
Boot downloaded recovery: fastboot -i 0x03F0 boot recovery_maya-0.1.img
Wait a couple of seconds for CWM to start on the tablet
On the tablet, select Install zip and then Install zip from sideload
Once sideload is ready, install UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip: adb sideload UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip
Wait for install to finish, reboot and enjoy
Notice
For those running Ubuntu flavor Linux, no need to download any drivers (assuming you've installed android-tools-adb and android-tools-fastboot packages). Just add 0x03F0 to your ~/.android/adb_usb.ini file so that adb will detect the tablet.
I have updated my device to 4.3 to ensure this is working properly. For those who still have 4.2.2, this method will also work as developper Chainfire has implemented 4.3 and olders in SuperSU zip
I did the build of CWM by my own and it is not 100% fully functional (still have issue mounting internal storage). But it is usable enough to install SuperSU zip thru sideload
DO NOT FLASH this version of CWM. I've not tested flashing and it might brick your device
Edit 23-Aug-14 : I flashed it thru Flashify and it boots. I also installed Quick Boot (Reboot) to easily reboot to recovery. Only issue is that it does not mount internal storage, but with external SD, I was able to perform a Nandroid backup-restore operations
Quick question please ref your post
I have received the cable you mentioned (HP 728141-001) and although it connects, the LED on the cable does not illuminate. Does yours light up? Cheers.

No, no lights
Finally received the cable too! Not going to root it now (but thanks for the procedure!).. I really just wanted an ADB connection.
Some notes:
1. You have to connect the cable to the tablet itself not the base (stupid but took me some time to figure this out as I never use it without the base).
2. I can't get the driver to work on Win7 (device not recognized even though I can see the files), but it works on Ubuntu.
3. You do have to edit the usb_adb.ini and *then* connect the cable, normally you should have an authorization on tablet. Don't do "android update adb" as it wipes the ini file.
4. The light does not seem to ever light up, actually I don't even think it's a light, maybe it's just something to show which side goes up...

Well thankx for setting up the guide. Since I'm EU spain I'll try to get a hold on one of those usb cables. Really want root for fps meter and TinyCore I think it's called. It would compliment my gaming on the device very well.
Maybe a stupid questions......
When using this expensive USB cable can you charge the tablet also with it or is it only for USB communication?

No my friend, I don't have important data on the internal 32 gigs, so no problem for me that the factory reset delete all the datas.
I mean that I don't want to "lost" this internal memory which is usefull for install applications (because this internal memory isn't well recognized no ? or I don't have well understood...).

Ah, okay, I see what you see.
No risk to loose the internal memory: it is still there once the tablet is rooted.
Issue I was mentioning about "no way to see internal memory in CWM" meant that when you boot CWM (the recovery), it does not see the internal storage. That the reason why, you have to sideload the SuperSU to flash it.
Then, once rebooted (and rooted), internal storage is visible as usual from Android
I would like to fix it into CWM so that we would them have a 100% usable and flashable CWM. Very useful then for flashing other zip that you should copy to internal storage and/or perform nandroid backups to internal storage.
So, you can safely root your device with the method (just be prepared to have the device reset to factory default due to unlocking bootloader)
