I've just followed the guide to rooting the TF101 in One Click, via the Linux Boot method. It really is a brilliant application that was put together with the intention to save one a lot of time, however, although it tells me it has successfully completed and asks that I reboot the unit and to ensure that USB debugging is enabled, when I load Rom Manager it complains that it is not rooted. When I try to access terminal, I get the $, instead of the # and this does not change whether I Su, Sudo Su, Sudo Bash etc. In fact, I get Access Denied. Has anyone any recommendation?
Do you have the app "superuser" installed? If not, go to the market downlod and install it.

Ah! I have not. There's always something missing Thanks much, I will give it a shot!
No Joy
Ouch...I was certain that that would have done the trick.
...
I think the problem is that the superuser app wants to install an SU update but it fails and tells me that the zip file has been placed on my SD and to flash it, of course, that's kind of counter productive, considering that I need superuser to work, in order to be able to flash the superuser update.

Not Bad for 6.5k($120), is it?
U guys should first check if its already unrooted . Cause the funbook come pre unrooted.
If not u can try a software called unroot me. It worked for my Funbook alpha.

do u mean 'UNLOCK ROOT' ? i can't find any software named 'unroot me'.
btw i've checked 'unlock root' , it didn't worked.
3G dongle
Can anybody tell me how to use 3G dongle with funbook infinity?
I have Idea Net setter (Huwai) with Idea card.
there is indeed no software named unrootme (troll alert, @shankermk?)
arun, anything worth sharing?
hey, a big welcome shivam. you will love the people around here.
congrats on buying your first tablet.
i've heard that huawei cards do work on this one(mine is d-link so no cake for me).
but somehow, if we gain root. then most of the things will work in it.(things like bluetooth, gamepads)
all is not lost people, keep your hopes,and smiles up.

Hi ,
Can the developers please mention which all methods have been tried and resulted in failure or bricking of the device. This may help other people to avoid those chances. Also has any one tried installing sparkyroot.apk . infinity has the same config as xtab.
Rooting
Here is the description of different methods i tried on it.
unlockroot: recognizes the device, flashes its name. but after "trying to get shell root permissions", it just returns to normal.
superoneclick: freezes on step 4 "failed to set prot mask"
Sparkyroot: doesnt even starts its process "SU binary not installed"
maybe the long way (the one used to get root permissions on pre-froyo era) through ADB may work here after some modifications, of course, but have no experience using adb ))
did you guys try any other?
First i would like to say,i dont own this fun book tab...Im a proud owner of galaxy note...
Ok that being said,to gain root all you must need to do is push susperuser.apk to/system/app and its binary "su" to /system/bin to gain root...now you guys need to find a way to do this...if anybody knows to use adb you can try any exploit...sorry if you guys already know it

I havn't tried any yet. Just bought the device yesterday evening and searching the net fo any hit.
Or if you device runs android 4(ICS) you can try to put a cwm zip containing the required files in your external sd,boot ibto recovery and select apply update from external sdcard and select the zip.It might work in a easy way....Because afaik ics allows to install zips from external sd which are test signed...
Note1:The zip must be named update.zip to work.create the zip then sign it and pls dont edit anything after signing as it may break the signature
Note2:if you dono to enter recovery you can try "adb reboot recovery" command in adb(without quotes)

@ creagrox, thanks for welcome note,
If I can use 3G dongle, definitely, I am interested in rooting.
I think there is no bluetooth in this funbook.

I dono how this tabs recovery looks or how to enter recovery in this tab...but usually that command should take you to recovery...maybe their is something like s-off???but their is 90% chance that the above method will work once you are in recovery...

Does anyone know if Z4Root will work on this tablet? Thanks!
I've been looking for one for 3 days now, I tryed onclickroot and z4root or something like that,, cant find anything Anyone please help!!
I'm still waiting for my tablet to be delivered...I'm gonna try SuperOneClick (crosses fingers)
I got one of these for my daughter for xmas. I spent a few days trying to root it with no luck. I'm not intimately familiar with android (some unix experience), but I tried all the options I could find for rooting Allwinner a10 devices. At first I ran into problems with adb unable to recognize the device for most one-click methods. I downloaded the android tools and was able to connect with the included adb. After studying the scripts, they all use the "adb root" command to gain root access on the device and copy the necessary files. Unfortunately, this command fails using adb from the tools. At first I thought this was due to my adb version, but after doing some research I think it is actually due to the device kernel. I believe it requires reflashing or some exploit to be able to gain root. I was able to install root explorer and I can browse all the necessary directories but I can't modify or copy the necessary files into them. Busybox told me there was an older version installed, but wouldn't let me install a newer version (again I think due to the permissions). Also, superuser would say it installed but the su binary did not show up on the bin directory. As the necessary directories are all owned by root, I couldn't figure out a way to modify the permissions...
I wound up returning the FileMate and got a Lenovo IdeaTab. Got that rooted in no time.
sorry i never saw this post i've bought 2 of these and i rooted them,
i wish i could get a better build for them though, too many app crashes and the internet connectivity sucks
i used a method by Bin4ry called root with restore, v17 worked any ways i have the zip if you would like it

FileMate Clear T720
Thank you very much for being the only person ever to have posted in regards to this tablet. I just got mine for christmas and have been trying to get it rooted. I've tried a lot of those one-click methods, and I've even tried this Bin4ary method. but it just hangs up on "daemon started sucessfully*"
Can you please direct me to the filemate drivers (if needed)
also, I have usb debugging endable, allowing 3rd party (not secure) files enabled. and pulling my hair out (enabled).
Thanks again.
Also, I'm running windows 7 and 8, (((maybe i should try win7))) hmm. i'll get back to you on that. Anyhow, any advice would be greatly appreciated, since returning it doesn't sound very fun.

I laughed so hard. ok your going to have to install drivers by force,
first off do you happen to have android sdk installed? if you don't there is another way but its going to sound weird,
if you do have the android SDK installed:
1. go to your computer manager (by opening explorer, right click on the "computer" group on the left column and select manager)
2. look for any unrecognized item that appears, ( it will most likely be labeled "Clear" with a faded icon and a "?" sign on top
3. right click and choose "Update drivers", it will give you options, choose "Browse my computer for driver software", another option screen will show,
4. at the bottom of the window there will be an option that says "let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
5. on the screen that appears there should be an option that says "ADB Interface", choose this
6. choose "Google, Inc.">"ADB Testing Interface version x.x.x.x" (I chose version 2.1.0.0)
that should do it next time you plug in the tablet try running ddms or open the cmd and type in "adb devices" (assuming you have adb installed) and it should show.
if this helps just hit the thanks button
[edit] I am running windows 8 btw [/edit]
ADB interface doesn't show up
Thank you very much for getting me farther, however I dont see ADB interface. I'm looking into it right now. I just re-installed the sdk drivers and will keep at it.
BTW, is it even worth doing this? the main reason I want to do it, is so i can connect my ps3 remote via bluetooth, and possibly a little overclocking. Have you had any luck OC it?
Thanks again Much appreciated:good:

open up SDK manager and go to Extras>"Google USB Drivers"
also install everything in the "Android 4.0 (API 14)" section, I have other options installed if this still doesn't work.
its worth it just for the extra stuff that root comes with like titanium backup, but you cant over clock, if you go any higher than 1200 MHz it will lock up and you have to force it to reset.

Rooted With Kingo
I just bought one of these cheap to play with and used Kingo to root it. Worked first time, no problem. The only issue I am having is that the SuperSu binaries are failing to update but root is still working. Titanium is working and Root Explorer so I can debloat. Hope that helps is anyone is still trying to use these

please tell me where in the world you got the Kingo root?
As far as being unable to update binaries, try to find a custom recovery and install. From there, you can inject them via su-binary update.zip and bam!

http://www.kingoapp.com/android-root.htm
That is the link for the Kingo site. The first time I saw it on here there was some question about whether it was safe becase it is not open source and used a Chinese SuperSu app. I felt safe using it on a tablet because I do no banking on it or anything, but the newest posts I have seen are that Kingo is safe. Hope that helps. And if you know where to find a custom recovery that will work with this app please let me know.
My Acer Iconia Tab A100 was updated to 4.0.3 ICS a while back and due to a webbed digitizer I had avoided use (did not want to cut myself on the screen)
After a while of letting the loose glass fall out I can now use it without worry. My problem is no matter what method I have tried rooting this tablet... It is either me who is doing something wrong, I am missing a step before everything else, OR I am just misunderstanding the steps.
I have tried the fastboot/recovery method by nullzero (abd.exe and other programs are not found in internal/external)
i have tried just running the ICS a100 root method (abd.exe and other programs are not found in internal/external)
I have tried watching youtube videos doing exactly as they did... but to no avail and I have no idea what I am doing wrong or if its all just because my tablet is already updated to 4.0.3? or what but its quite frustrating.
I am by no means educated in android so I honestly have no idea what I am doing other than following the steps I watch online so....
That being said. Any and all help is appreciated greatly

i have always used this method:
http://thedroidnation.com/acer/iconia-tab-a100/root-acer-iconia-tab-a100-android-40-ics-rom.html
i dont know what it is called, so i am not sure if you mentioned it
i have rooted 3 or 4 times with it, and i am also on 4.0.3
it tells you how to set up your tablet before you attempt to root and how to root (follow the directions)
where it tells you to run "runit-win.bat" try right-clicking it and choose "run as administrator" not sure if is matters but it wouldn't hurt to try it
close to the final step, it tells you to install superuser and titanium backup, get them from the android market for free

Mkdir access denied
i am having problems rooting my a100 runing ics 4.0.3.. i have tried every method and nothing seems to work. when i try ZeroNulls root i get Mkdir /data/local/tools access denied. Anyone else having this problem?
I own a ZTE Z933, this device doesn't appear to be rooted or anything by anyone yet, so I've been working on doing it myself.
I've noticed some devices get root by using an update.zip containing the SU binary.
My question is:
- Should this update.zip method work for any device that can do this in recovery?
- Is there any major risk? (like incompatible zips or SU bin's, or should i just be able to use the one from AndroidSU?)
The update.zip method seems very easy and seems like it should work for a lot of devices, but yet there's very little information on it, so it makes me believe that I'm missing something.
Any info on this would be appreciated!
Many devices rely on this method nowadays, previously it was possible via applications such as z4root.
This method will root any device that has a "custom recovery" installed. If it has a stock recovery it won't work as you can only install manufacture signed .zips and .dats
Well sometimes but rarely, risks don't really come when pushing a few binaries to /system/bin and the root app to /system/app however the original app will be outdated.
You will need to flash or install new updates bins and the app itself when it gets update.
Anything else please let me know.
