I'm wondering how if possible to root my second User / account I made on the tablet. I made a second user for someone else in the house to use but I still want to be able to use some of my apps that need root access. I'm running android 4.2.1 and its fully rooted on the Owner account.
Any help would be great even if you just point me in the right direction. Most of the things I've found have been related to Dual booting and thats not what I have / want.
I don't think that's possible. Multiuser was not designed with rooting in mind...

Let's root the DC!
already rooted, http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/04/30/instructions-how-to-root-the-verizon-samsung-droid-charge/
Let's make a simple version lol
I thought Z4Root worked, or doesn't it? Either way an easy root method would be nice even for those of us who are comfortable with the longer method
DroidXCon is looking for testers of a semi-automated root script, see here
Hey..I'm getting a Droid Charge mailed to me once it comes out. I won it on the scavenger hunt.. I'd be happy to help with one-click root once I have it.
Root is broken with E2 update. They basically took away the ability for media hub to work on 3G and then broke root.
If someone has an easy to follow howto on dumping the system data I can post it for the devs to work with. I will look for some on google as well. But there might be preferences for ppl.
Id be glad to provide a dump as well, just need a quick rundown

no custom roms yet?
I got my phone from the Droid Landing hunt today
I have been struggling with trying to root this phone, the iida infobar a01.
Sharp makes it, model shx11swa
I am trying to get the boot.img, for development.
It is android 2.3.3 with a custom ui.
I have tried is03break, superoneclick & fre3vo. All of them seemed to work to a certain extent but get held up at the end of each of those processes.
I will provide outputs if asked.
I am willing to either follow directions with adb or have someone go remote and do it.
please help! Thanks.....

Any luck with rooting this phone so far?
Lack of people using this phone because of unlocking status when take it out of japan.
I have an unlocked Galaxy Tab 3 8 (T311) with 4.2.2 OS and the TWRPs method did not work for me. I am not able to post links yet, but google "teamandroid root galaxy tab 3 8 0 422 jelly bean" and the webpage should come up in the search options. Excellent instructions and super easy to root. Does not provide instructions on a recovery install, which is what you'll need next to install a ROM.
NOTE -- this is for unlocked tablet versions. My tablet is not tied to a carrier, and this worked perfectly for me.
Don't Recommend any KitKat ROMs for now
I tried out 2 KitKat Roms on my tablet (T311) and most everything worked out well, except for a very important feature. The phone did not work. I think it has to do with KitKat because not rooted people have this problem. Also, had to manually fix my APN settings to get 3G, it was not automatic. I'm back to my original firmware and think I'll stay with that until key lime pie, or whatever it will be called, comes out. I plan to root again though and get some of that privacy protection software back.

This is a root guide for Samsung tab 3, 3G 8". Please re-read my entire post and see for yourself. If root guides don't belong here, please let me know. I'm a newbie
hey
@annalia
this isn't a guide.
a guide contains and or points to good resources/information.
it contains descriptions of processes, observations, warnings, and insights.
things that bring a reader forward from a point of difficulty on through to a point of resolution.
please reconsider your position.

The first thing I do whenever I get a new device is root it and try out all the custom roms it has to offer. With my shield its been different because I don't want to lose controller support or the shield hub because I stream games through geoforce daily. I was hoping someone could recommend a rom that has those features if one exists yet for this tablet? Also I am on android 6.0 and would like to keep it that way if possible? I would love some advice on this from Some more experienced shield owners. I've only had mine for about a week. Either way I love my shield and wouldn't trade it for anything thanks for your help!
Root?
Hey maybe someone could also let me know what root method would be the best now that 6.0 is installed on my k1? Would the toolkit still be the easiest method?
No help?
Any advice?
as of now, very few custom roms have any NVIDIA support (controller or otherwise) and the couple that do aren't reliable.
As for root, it is all over this section of the forum what you need to do to root 6.0 stock on your shield... I would say to use search, but that isn't even really needed since it is in plain view in the general section on the front page.
I read the root guides, but all of them said they were for lollipop or below am I missing one?

I recently bought a Moto X Pure from an XDA Member which should be here at the beginning of next week.
I used to own a GS5 which as you know is pretty locked down. Locked bootloader, hard to root, if you updated you're screwed, ect. So! I've been out of the rooting game for a while now and only really dipped my toes in to begin with.
My question is, can anyone explain the basics and benefits of a rooted device? Specifically, Xposed Framework/Modules, Root detection with Android Pay, and maybe some things that i've gotta try out with a fully unlocked android device. I plan to install an AOSP ROM but im gonna try out stock Moto X first and see how i like it.
Another short question I have regarding Android Pay, i've heard that some root techniques make Android Pay not work, some are fine, some custom ROMs wont work, AOSP roms will, can somebody clarify all this for me?
Thanks guys, you're always helpful. Glad to be back.
