Ok My Device is a Motorola Xoom with Build Number JZO54K (4.1.2). I want to Root this device. Every thread I find shows how to root a Motorola Xoom TO this Build. I want to Root FROM this build, I have it, and I want to root it. How is this done? I have rooted my HTC EVO 4G so i am not 100% new to this, But i have never rooted my tablet before (duh). So any instructions?

I recently received the OTA SPRINT GINGERBREAD 2.3.3. Like an idiot I accepted it...noW my root is gone and tethering as well. I ORIGINALLY rooted the Froyo using Gingerbreak. Now it does not work, hangs for hours...I tried using a Greens Droidroot kit, not to sure how how to use...Has anyone got the fix...and in terms that a noob will understand?

Hi there guys. I have to admit that I'm a noob to the Motorola Xoom 2 and all the flashing business. I can flash roms on my Sammy G S 3 no problems but the Xoom 2 ME is so confusing.
So the question is this.. After receiving the OTA ICS update how can I root my device? Is it a case of having to downgrade somehow and root that way? Is it possible to take a ROM backup just in case anything goes belly up?
If it helps on the box it states that I have the Motorola Xoom 2 Media Edition MZ707-16
In the About tablet page it says the following:
System Version - 77.128.14.MZ607.Retail.en.EU
Model Number - XOOM 2 ME
Android Version 4.0.4
Build number 7.7.1-128_MZ607-14 <-- How has my model changed?
Guys I'm so confused so please help. All I require is to root and be able to factory reset in the event of some failure.
All help gratefully received,
Doozeman
i want to ask a qusetion before i do this im following this post and i have everything besides one thing i dont know about
this is the post im on
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952124
it says it needsd to have a Jelly Bean Firmware/Bootloader
idk if i have that not unless its asking about the rom i have. I am on ICS 4.0.4 i never updated my tablet and i have it rooted. i also have CWM 6.0.15 touch version.
do i need to update the FW. to get this rom installed and if so will it lock my bootloader and take away my root.
if it dose take my root am i able to use the same root method i used on my ICS on this updated rom
please help and thank you for the help
I need another option for rooting an HTC inspire 4G running Android 2.3.5
I've tried ACE (option 1 and option o), Fromaroot (multiple versions), Pete's Motorola Root Tool and still cant root the phone. It appears this version 2.3.5 is just tricking and I can't find a vunerability. I want to upgrade the ROM to another more current version as 2.3.5 currently does not support some apps on the market I'd like to use. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Easy Ace Root Tool?
I have just purchased an s3 from Verizon (sch-I535). Yeah, I know it's last years model but the price was to hard to pass up. It is at 4.1.2 vrbmf1. I have not rooted a phone since my droid X and that was a 1 touch program called z4root. I have been trying to find a 1 touch root for this phone but all links seem to be dead. I'm interested in the "casual" root. can anyone point me to a good link for the casual root for this firmware version and a good step by step? I apologize ahead of time if I'm in the wrong forum. Thanks.
