[Q] How do I root a Google Android 4.2 Tablet or use PS2 pad on it w/o root? - General Questions and Answers

How do I root a Google Android 4.2 Tablet?

Anyone? ; ; I tried several rooting programs but they don't support this tablet. The only program that ALMOST worked was Kingo Android ROOT. It pushed the Root Files to the tablet and then gave me a "Device Not Supported Error." I just want to root my tablet so I can use my PS2 controller with it. That's all I want. ; ;

I have a Google Android 4.2 Tablet. But nevermind about that. I figured out how to root it. I booted it into Recovery, chose "ADB Sideload," and then used ADB to flash an update.zip which contained the ROOT files. Then I installed SuperSU and enabled ROOT. The downside is, the program that let's me use my gamepad (USB/BT Joystick Center G) is kinda meh. I have to do so much just to get my gamepad to work. It's a royal pain in the ass. Is there any other way to get my wired gamepad to work on a rooted tablet?

I have to know Wich model U have. An Android 4.2 Tablet can be everything.

Google Android 4.2 Tablet (Rooted)
Model # – K1001L1B
Firmware – 2.1_20131224
Kernel Version – 3.4.39+
[email protected] #74
Build # - GLD-A20_K1001L1B.20131228
Nobis 9” Tablet (Not Rooted - Please Help)
Model # - NB09
Android Version – 4.1.1
Kernel Version – 3.0.8
Build # - NB09.20130929.V005
I managed to root the Google Android 4.2 Tablet.I wasn't able to root the Nobis Tablet because the same procedure will not work on it. It rejects the update.zip and no root methods seem to work. I would very much like to root the Nobis but the question is how? And what's the easiest way to get a wired PS2 pad to work with either tablet?

Try it with Farmaroot. Just use the Searchfunction in this Forum and look if your device is supported.

Says my tablet isn't vulnerable to exploits in Framaroot. ; ; Doesn't work.

Try ERoot. Its a Windows Tool.

All the methods I've seen require adobe access to do it which is PC driven. I don't think anyone has developed an apk for it to be done on the tablet.

[Q] Rooting without Odin

Hello everyone
Before 2-3 weeks my beloved phone was fallen into my sink with water flowing
It works well, but the USB port now seems to work not good.. I've tried it on my PC and one another PC with different cables but it does not connect
So I wanted yesterday to make an update to 4.2.2 via Kies but as I mentioned it does not recognise it and odin too..
I thought to use mobile odin, but unfortunately, I went to stock (without root) before a few weeks..
So my question is, is it possible to root my phone without a PC?
Can I simply root it via stock recovery or would it brick then?

Yes i can charge it, but when I disconnect the charger, the white 'lighting' in the battery bar is still there, I need to restart my phone to make it disappear

I was searching for it, because this sec was too long for me
I found a way too root with an app, but its for exynos4 devices only and since the I9105P is broadcomm (not sure if I'm right) this method is not possible
Or did you mean another file ?

Oh I'm sorry. I meant that you can root without PC (usually people roots without PC), but you need to have CWM to root your device and to get it you need to have PC and flash it with Odin.
And BTW do you have Kies installed or do you have drivers for you phone on your PC?
EDIT: And those CWMs and Kernels doesn't work on S II Plus.

Just had to boot my PC
OK ...
Here is the text :
"paste"
Download xxx-signed.zip kernel matching your ROM
Put the previously downloaded xxx-signed.zip file on your external sd card
Boot into stock recovery (volume up+home+power)
Select "apply update from external storage".
Now select the xxx-signed.zip file you copied in previous step
You are rooted + new PhilZ-cwm6 kernel with CWM6
Can tell you it worked like a charm for me
What is your phone model?

Sorry I didn't know that, you are right. But I dont know does S II Plus have a rooting zip that can be installed using stock recovery.

Maybe right direction, but unfortunately not that what I'm searching for. It says ' Also, a recovery that uses "OpenRecoveryScript", such as TWRP, is recommended. You may try it on CWMR, but it may not be able to flash anything depending on the build.'
Since I have stock recovery, this method isn't possible
But before a few hours I find out that my stock recovery is useless too, cause of that open android which is lying, with an red triangle and black exclamation mark, which appears every time when I choose a option
I believe the only solution is to get my beloved to manufacturer for a repair hope I still have warranty although there's water damage
Or knows anyone more solutions?

[Q] root without pc

I tried many ways to make root without pc because my pc wasn't working please help i am using note 2
Try baidu root. Or Framaroot. Or Rootmaster. Or search for more rooting applications applicable for your device. Basically those are the easiest way yet of rooting most of android devices.

Unfortunatley no, think of the bootloader like the UEFI/BIOS (Not exactly the same but for this explanation) on a PC. The device needs the ASUS specific bootloader to ensure the hardware functions in the OS, A GRUB bootloader would not be able to do this and the device would be "bricked" due to the different standards of the bootloaders and the GRUB bootloader not being device specific. An alternative to your idea would be to install a version of Ubuntu on your device using the thread here as this will use bootloaders and software specific to your device to load up the Ubuntu operating system. I hope I could help you re-purpose your tablet and good luck
