Why can not I find anything about root, the Asus tablet me171? Is it really a tablet unrootable
please help
No one really bought the ME171. It wasn't released in many countries and it was outrageously overpriced for a device that wasn't that good or didn't offer anything too great to begin with. I'm not really sure what Asus was thinking when they released that device. Unfortunately, you're going to have a really hard time finding information about that decide.
Find it....i got it.asus me171 root
Finally did it. Quite easy and convenient:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
I'm going to try it. And if it works leave it to the public Tomorrow

Let us know how it goes. There may be others in the same position as you who might want to know as well.
I'm ME171 user, and I think it's the best for my life style. Choose from
1. Dual core cpu. Not the best but still cool.
2. Telephone call With 3g.
3. 7" Best size for my phone.
4. memic Bluetooth. Help receive call.
5. HDMI Can use as desktop.
6. 1g ram.
7. Gorilla glass.
8. Simple pen with handle's pack, if u r a remembers man.
No flash light is the only problem I have.
Ps. Just my op.
sorry for my weak english.

Hello and sorry for the delay
Unfortunately, this tablet will satisfy me and I replaced it
With this method you can get to the root.But note that it is very unstable
First download viperMOD PrimeTime v4.1
fallow thishttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23020884
run number 2
If proper steps are automatically performed
* Tablet will restart
If not reset this scrept is failure you had to manually take out protection
go to settings / applications /running and stop the asus sec and google services and push...,And quickly run number 2
after reset update your busy box and super user and install root keeper

Enough that I could just get rid of
It was a bad tablet
I sold it 2 times already
A few days after the buyer came out to replace it
I see. Probably would have been interesting to have regardless.

Quick question... Is everything in here compatible with the new Xoom Family available in Best Buy?
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Motorol...909487&skuId=3639159&st=xoom family&cp=1&lp=1
I'm not quite sure what the difference is between the original one and the new Family edition, that's why I ask... I don't want to risk bricking my new Xoom
Almost certainly nothing for the original Xoom will work for the Family Media Edition (F-ME for short). This is due to different battery specs. Somebody that is feeling brave/stupid can try to prove me wrong.
the only difference i see is different chassis and the Family edition has an HD IPS screen. which i want to know if it would be possible to replace the hd screen i have with the family edition IPS one.

adb reboot-bootloader can't find device. It appears that adb has been disabled. Turning on with pwr-volUp results in device being seen as needing apx drivers when connected via USB. I'm out of my league with nvflash...

Enabling adb should be a piece of cake after we gain root... My Xoom still doesn't arrive, I'll get it by Friday... I've been thinking; most of the root methods are based on Rage against the cage, I even remember an APK that after installation it rebooted the phone and the phone was rooted... I also realized that having a locked bootloader isn't guarantee that root isn't achievable, 3 months passed before the Atrix 4G's bootloader was unlocked and still we got root before it happened.
I just need to know where to look and I'll do it.
Please help me

I don't have the original one so I can't really compare, sorry
Would you please at least open it and get some Hi Def pictures from inside ?
Many of us are interested about the new IPS screen from this version eventually.
If we will be able to find the manufacturer and read the specs maybe a replacement for our "original" screen will make us the happier Xoom owners ever.
Sorry my poor english

Any feedback? Does it work on ICS update?
Just received my 7 Plus wifi. So far I like it, although there doesnt seem to be a lot of interest from xda or other forums. Since it was just released today, I suppose I need to be a bit patient. This is the closest forum so I am adding this post here.
I really need a root and adhoc fix so I can use it with my ET4G and sell my ipad!. Also I want to hide the status bar. I may dig into it attempting the 10.1 or 8.9 root, but I have a bit of reading to do on it first.

Edit : i found the link http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...333M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1320309207&sr=8-2
I ordered it expecting it in about 10 more days or so. Lo and behold I got a shipping notice yesterday.
I have read that it uses the tegra2 processor, but I see no evidence of that. And now I attempt to find it on the web and it is nowhere to be seen.
I will definitely work on getting a system dump tonight after work. I might ask for some help onthis.

I tried a 1280x720 mkv encode with h264 part10 (avc1) with a AC3 audio track and the default video player sliced through it like bu-bu-butter even after fast forwards etc. Oh and it looked beautiful.
If thats not what you wanted let me know.
So now that the 7 plus has had its system dumped, who is gonna help me root this thing this weekend?
Very nice man.
Congrats on your purchase.
I want to sell my 10.1 but would like a bigger screen than the 7 plus but with Exynos.

Thanks, I like it, but I hope development catches on like the acer iconia a100. I would have liked to opt for the 7.7, but I read its not coming to the states and the pricetag will likely be heftier.
I bought it thinking it had a tegra2 but was elated to find it has the exynos.
I think, if I weren't already awaiting the HD SAMOLED+ awesomeness of the 7.7" tab, I'd probably sell my 8.9 now and get a 7 Plus. I've been saying all along that the Exynos is a beast. Tegra2 is a huge disappointment for me...
P.S. I've seen preorders from Expansys and Mobile City of ~$600 - 700 for the 7.7 import. Have my 3G 7.7 preordered now from Expansys. Oh baby! Can't wait!

I know this is in the wrong section, but I couldn't find a section for the Memo Pad Smart 10 so I'm asking here as the TF300 seems to have almost identical specs.
First off, I only needed a light duty tablet, I have a GNoteII for my phone so I'm not in need of an expensive powerhouse of a tablet as I only wanted a larger screen for some traveling stuff and what not.
But I would like to be able to root and unlock the bootloader on my new tablet once I get it. But I wasn't sure if there was such a thing already in the works, where I could look for it if it is, or if I could somehow help out by providing data from the device when it arrives at my house tomorrow.
If any Dev's out there wanted info from me I'd be happy to help out as much as I can. I'm by no means capable of doing it myself, but I know how ADB works and such so I would be willing to help.

It probably will. Others have had luck restoring root using voodoo ota root keeper. I didn't.
But motochopper rooted me again after the 4.2.1 update.

Hey Guys
I have bought the asus Fonepad which so far is a great device.
But i can´t find any information onn the internet on how to root it.
Could you use a general root for the padfone or do i have to wait for
a special root.
Thank you
I got my Fonepad this morning and its nice, but it needs some developer love to be my daily driver for more than a couple of weeks.
You cant count me in for at least $50 towards the cost of a device if a developer wanted to take it on.

I've on this device for cluple of days and it's really a kind of device with great potentials. The screen is nice with good density and the connectivity are all in. The telephony features is unique for this kind of device and the best part is it's running on Intel, I know developers can do wonders on this device and not to forget the price is very affordable. The kernel source code are available at asus website.
So dev's let's start the exciting work and really I need to root my device ASAP.
Thanks for the reading.

Tested it on the fonepad. Doesn't work. The shell doesn't show up after booting. Also after "Restore my data" the script doesn't recognize that the restore is done. I have to power off the device manually.
Up to now I haven't found a solution on the net to get root access. I want to use the fonepad with USB OTG to controll a DSLR. If this isn't possible I have to sell it again
I've ordered it and I'm waiting for the device, I hope that will be opened a dedicated forum!
Coming from P1000 that was kept alive still today with 4.2.2 by amazing developers. I hope this will too.
I got one too
I have had mine for a week now and am finding the performance to be a bit sluggish, but not too bad. The total package is quite nice. However, we need to be able to root it to get the most out of it. I will contribute as well.
How much?
Hi guys, just curious how much you bought the Fonepad for and if anyone using it on T-Mo? If so, what speed are you getting with the HSDPA?

I got the same error message when I tried to install Firefox. I looked at the Firefox release notes and it says Firefox does not support Android running on an Intel chip. I had not realised this was going to be a big limitation.
I hope asus fonepad get some love from dev soon. Lot of potential in these phablet. Intel has some software compatibility but seems makes up in battery life.

I am getting good speeds on T-Mobile. While it says "H", it is clearly delivering H+ speeds consistently over 5m download and close to 3m upload. This is much faster (almost double) that of the H+ speeds I was getting from AT&T.
As for Flash, I could install it, but that effort was not worthwhile since it does not seem to work with any browser.

It fails to install SuperUser Binaries. Perhaps the Intel Atom chipset has something to do with this failure to exploit for root.
Assuming nvidia allows me to make the decision of how to "dispose" of the tablet with the bad battery, I'm curious what capabilities they have in terms of disabling the device.
I AM concerned about the battery, so if I can find a source for a new one, I'll dispose of the old one.
When the new unit arrives, I'll post back what happens.
IIRC as I was going through the recall registration process the old unit does not need to be returned. It will simply be 'rendered useless'. I believe Google added kill switch ability back with 5.0 Lollipop launch. I'm assuming that service is how NVIDIA will deactivate these. worst case is once new unit arrives it will go though an interactive 'swap' process where you need to execute steps on the old unit to activate new unit.
Its all speculation at this point but 2 tablets are better than 1 so these are some simple steps I'm taking to prepare for when the replacement device arrives:
1. Factory reset
2. keep it air gapped; skip any network/wifi setup steps
At the end of the RMA process for me it said to remember to remove any sd card, cover, or any other belongings before mailing it back.
Maybe they added the kill switch with the latest ota update, it could check via internet, if your new device has been registered and then it's triggering something which could disable the tablet on firmware level such as nvboot (was that the name for the maintenance mode?). Then it should be unusable. A solution could be an older firmware or a different rom.
No worries mate dont worrie

It could be possible but they could control tablets with home address (like: 1000 tablet sent, 900 came back... controlling addresses they could know who didn't send it back)... or is it working in another way?

I'm not shure if this means something, but the latest OTA flashes a bootloader, the kill switch may be there. This is just a wild guess, but i think flashing the old recovery images from gameworks might save your tablet.

Probably. If my suggestion would work, then a custom ROM would also.

Sorry, i got confused. I suggest flashing the old stock recovery image, to install the old bootloader. After that you could flash a ROM just for good measure. I also don't know if just flashing a ROM will work, I'm just suggesting what i think is the safest method. Although flashing a custom ROM would be good probably.
I noticed OTA 3.0 also included a boot.img file in the .zip - I'm assuming this is the boatloader image - can anyone confirm?
Can't this older boot.img be flashed alone using Flashify (assuming the boatloader is the key to the kill switch)?
