Wikipad Rooted - Android General

The Wikipad has been rooted and there is also a ClockworkMod Recovery available. I take no responsibility for your actions. This a choice you are making. If you brick your device that's on you. That being said, these procedures have been successful so far.
This only works on the Wikipad 7 inch running Android 4.1.1 and using Windows 7 64-bit (32-bit should work as well). I've not tried this with 4.2.2 or Windows 10, nor I have touched my Wikipad in years.
Download this: Everything you Need.zip and follow the read me(s).
A clean recovery backup! (Props to ordoeb) -- http://dfiles.ru/files/079843b8f

Thanks. Worked for me. Got root and clockworkmod. Still can't see my device in adb in Ubuntu. Trying to figure that out.

bad link
Thanks for root.
But link doesn't work.
Please, update the link "Everything you Need.zip".
Thanks again.

The Wikipad needs its own forum.

Finally
Mad props to ordoeb! Thank you and thank you again.
I'm downloading his stock image. I'll install it, make sure it's clean, then upload a copy with a link to share. As promised, I will also release instructions and files for root.
ordoeb, you've done the Wikipad community a great service. We now have full control over a device we love.
We now:
-Have a way to backup the device
-Restore the device (even in some "bricked" situations")
-Create Custom Roms
-And root the device
:good:

little help

How did you do it? I did everything correctly and I'm stuck in "waiting for device"
[SOLVED] I placed the original fastboot in the motochopper folder which probably didn't do anything. But since my android drivers are everywhere! I removed the adb_usb that was provided in the everything you need rar and used Google's USB drivers. Worked like a charm!

I downloaded it when it was called "just for you.zip" now the zip just has stuff about baltimore. Hopefully we'll get something to root the Wikipad soon. It's a good tablet, but it needs button mapping and I want to see if I can get rid of some of the useless google apps.
Thanks

New Link.
This is not exactly a mirror but a new upload. Idk if I can even do that but its needed.
Root does work and there are instructions inside the zip.
The original download link works as well because I've seen that weird download link while trying to download via mobile network. After switching to WiFi it was there bright and clear.

Yup yup! I'd also create a backup of your own, not saying the one provided is bad. But on my device it stops the G-Sensor from functioning. Could just be my device though. Just a tip aha.

Hello guys,
I just received my Wikipad 7, it's a very great console without big audio lag unlike my Nvidia Shield...
Controls are excellent !
I just rooted my Wikipad, but I seen it's only a Tegra 3 T30L (not a T30S as described on first Wikipad Details before its release...)
So it's blocked at 1.3Ghz for 1 core and 1.2Ghz for 4 cores (instead of 1.5Ghz-1.4ghz as promised).
This tablet is a Nexus 7 clone lol So maybe an overclocked kernel is possible ? We can also dump the boot etc. with the ClockworkMod Recovery.
Thanks for your help.
I also made a topic in Q/A forum.

It still wont install for me (G4 could not be installed on this phone). I wonder if it's because I have an X10a. I'm going to try installing x10i firmware tonight and see if it installs.

[BOOTANIMATION] XoomNexus

This is the Xoom boot animation ported for the Nexus One. All credits go to tntdroid over at the androidcentral forums for his DroidX port.
Instructions
Place in tools folder, open a cmd prompt and:
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
Link.
Link2
Alternatively, flash the Xoom-signed file in your recovery of choice:
Link
Note: The little honeycomb bee is not part of the bootanimation but rather seems to be a splash screen, which as of yet N1 users can't change.
Do these instructions apply to the HD Desire port also...like MM's 1.7 build? Or is there some other location to push it to?
Thanks...looks cool.

[Q] Will this ROM thing help my phone?

Hi,
I'm noob, this website is confsuing me so hard I can't find any useful info for me.
I have Samsung I5800. And it works really slow, I mean, REALLY slow. I got 1gb memory card inside but if I download let's say 2 aplications 25mb each I can't do any single thing with this phone. Can't pick up calls - If someone calls me I can hear the ringtone, feel the vibs but screen won't light up fast enough to pick up the call.
I was told that this website helps people like me. That updating ROM - w/e it is - might help. Is this true? Or is my phone broken and I have to send it to repair?
