So after many weeks I know that my phone is vulnerable to the Mempodroid root. I've been given a link to the forum for all that stuff. Just asking would it be possible for me to root my phone using the Asus transporter Mempodroid root exploit? If it's not can someone give me instructions on how to root this phone. I'm a noob at the android stuff, had a iPhone for so many years xD

I just got my wifi only Xoom today. I also have a Motorola Atrix, which is rooted and running a custom rom. I was reading on here about rooting and kernels and other things and I didn't understand it. Can someone please help me understand the differences between the Xoom tablet and an android phone. Thanks

They are practically the same, but methods for rooting devices change per device. The Xoom requires a little extra work.
Do you have the JDK and Android Development Kit installed on your PC?
Are you comfortable with command lines?
Can you afford to purchase another Xoom if you brick this one?

Well I've had it rooted now for a week and today I went to the app and there was an update and the update failed and now superuser doesn't work and now I pretty much don't have root access. Please can anyone help.

So my transformer is on the way. While i do plan to play with it stock first, i would love to know if there is a noob friendly tutorial to rooting this beast.
While im not a noob in rooting my phone, i am a total noob with tablets. A link to a comprehensive tutorial would be lovely.
I appreciate any help guys

There are a lot of tutorials written here - for all possibilities - latest is the nachoroot method and I did write a guide as well. Use search
Nachoroot method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427838
pjfriend's method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417006
If you run in to problems with either of them (pjfriend's method worked for me yesterday running 8.6.5.21 on a TF101 B80 model transformer), check the threads because most problems have occurred before and have been addressed.
I appreciate it guys. Just waiting for it to get here.

Hey guys,
since more than a month i am using the xperia active from Sony Ericsson and i ve still guarantee on it.
It s an awesome smartphone, but sometimes the RAM is overloaded and it starts to lag.
Then the battery works for just a day, because of the background-apps, then i ve to charge it again... really annoying
Thats why i want to root my smartphone. Actually i ve ICS(4.0.4) on it (before it was 2.3 or sth.) and i would like to keep it, but on it i want superuser rights. Therefore i found "zergrush" from doomlord, but in other threads i just read thats for Android 2.2/2.3 ...
Is it possible to root my phone without loosing my guarantee (to make root "nearly" unseen after unroot, in case of warranty) on that device?
(sorry for my bad english, i hope you understood my situation and give me some answers )
greetings Red :angel:
You can try rooting using Doomlords method for ICS
Flash a stock kernel of 4.0.3
Root it using Doomlords kit
PS its a batch file
Flash back 4.0.4 kernel
Done !!!

Noo, dont root. Youll get stuck in fastboot and spend $12 on repairs!

Whether you're going to root it or not is up to u. However, if u do root and u want to make it unseen or unroot, flashing an official stock rom removes the root data.
i read a thread that made a few things clear, i cant remember who posted it (sorry) but it just said that if they cant prove that u rooting your phone is the cause of whatever wrnt rong with your phone, they will still have to fix it under the warranty.
I also never heard of anyone messing up their android as a result of rooting.
Im not saying jump into it and root your android, be careful as we are always warned that their are risks onvolved and developers knows best

For sure root it´s the best option for anyone that like to customize the system.
You should try superoneclick its a program which basically roots your your phone for you, gives you superuser and there shouldn't be drastic changes to your OS either
google it and download then go to youtube and follow a tutorial such as youtubeDOTcom/watch?v=lD4_wAj1WIY (sorry cant post links yet)
As for warranties I'm not sure but this is the safest and easiest method I'm aware of
but you should probably make sure it works on your phone and make a backup before you try it
Hello everyone ive been jailbreaking iPhones for quite some time but im pretty new to Android and rooting.
I got an HTC Acquire and saw in a website that i could root it with the HTC Quick Root that this tool can root any htc phone.
But when I get to the thread it says something about s-on and s-off or something along those lines.
Can someone please explain what this is and tell me how to verify that in my phone?
And if i root will i lose everything i have installed?
Thabks in advance

What website was this? You should really try to use root methods that are developed here on XDA. Just search for your phone in the search, and read through the forums there (although I'm not seeing one for the Acquire). Android Police sometimes has root methods, too.
If you root, you shouldn't lose all of your data, as long as you follow the instructions to the letter. Still, it's a good idea to back up whatever data you can (contacts, pictures, music, etc.) just to be on the safe side.
The transition from jailbreaking iOS to rooting Android can be quite confusing. As an iPod touch owner, I feel your pain. Just take the time to read through everything. Then take the time to reread it again.
I hoped I helped. Welcome to the world of Android!

s-on and s-off is related to the bootloader on your phone. i'd suggest you go to any of the htc threads plus others here on xda and you can get info about everything like rooting,bootloader,flashing custom roms,recovery etc
Is that kind of info tje same for every htc or u mean asking in one of those threads

The terms "rooting," "bootloader," and "flashing" are all related to pretty much any Android device. Rooting is the same as jail breaking - it gives you superuser permissions to your phone's filesystem - but every device has a different method to obtain root (or so I'm told). The bootloader - I think - has something to do with booting up the Android filesystem (but don't quote me on it). Flashing is a way to install tweaks, apps, and themes to your device through a custom recovery, all while the device's file-system still isn't completely activated (kind of like restarting the SpringBoard on an iPhone after changing a theme or installing a tweak from Cydia). Try Googling these terms, that's how I got started.
The thread you mentioned said something about having an unlocked bootloader. You may want to look into that before you try rooting.
I just got off of ten straight hours of work, so I hope this made some kind of sense

Hey guys, I have no idea what I am doing wrong here. I have a Verizon galaxy s 3 sch-i535 running on 4.3 and I cannot root the darn thing for the life of me! I have debugging mode on, so that should not be an issue. I have tried using motochopper with an old mac of mine, Framaroot, an app called Poot, and one from China thats mostly in Chinese. I have gone through tutorials for using all of these and have failed every single time. I even tried motochopper on another sch-i535 and had no luck there too. Could anyone clue me in on what I'm doing wrong?? Thanks
You are using root methods that do not work on 4.3, you need to do more research. Go use towelroot by geohot.
