Rooting Funbook Infinity P275
Rooting & Unrooting Funbook Infinity P275
Android rooting is the process of allowing users of smartphones, tablets and other devices running android to attain privileged control (known as "root access") within Android's subsystem.
There are two methods for rooting our Funbook Infinity :
1) Root Many Android! by Bin4ry
2) Super One Click by CLShortFuse
Both are very easy methods, but I prefer using Universal Rooting Script by Bin4ry. However, I will post how to root in both methods!
Preparing Funbook Infinity For Rooting :
1) On your infinity tablet, go to Settings- -> Developers options and tap on USB debugging to check (tick) the USB debugging on.
2) Connect the Funbook Infinity with your Windows Computer via USB cable.
3) If it is the first time that you have connected your tablet to your computer, then allow windows to Automatically Install the Drivers for you.
4) Change the Connectivity Option from MTP to Mass Storage in Settings --> Storage --> Options --> USB computer connection
If the drivers are not installed automatically then you nedd to install them manually. Go to 3rd post for the guide on installing ADB drivers manually.
Note : Remove your SD Card from your Tab.
METHOD 1 :
Root Many Android! BY BIN4RY
1) Download Root_With_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v31 : HERE or HERE [OP LINK]
2) Extract & Double-Click RunMe.bat
3) Follow the instructions
4) Connect your tablet to the computer.
5) Then, the program will ask you to go to the tablet and
tap Restore My Data. Do it.
6) Wait till it finishes. Your tablet will restart once.
7) Once the program is done, press Enter.
8) Your Funbook Infinity will be rooted.
METHOD 2 :
Super One Click by CLShortFuse
Note : The program requires Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0+ or Mono v1.2.6+
1) Download SuperOneClick Root v2.3 : HERE [ORI LINK]
2) Open SuperOneClick.exe
3) Click the Root button and wait for a few minutes.
4) You can select Yes, if you would like to test it.
5) Your Funbook Infinity will be rooted.
Unroot Your Funbook Infinity:
i) Use Root_with_Restore_v31
Select the Unroot Option from the list.
ii) Use SuperOneClick
Click on Unroot on the SuperOneClick.exe window.

CWM Recovery 6 For Funbook Infinity P275
ClockWorkMod Recovery
Screenshots in updated CWM recovery:
Prerequisite :
Your Funbook Infinity Must Be Rooted In Order To Install CWM.
Credits to dolorespark for posting this.
1) Downlad CWM_6028_P275.zipfrom HERE [Dev-Host]
and Novo_Tools.apk from HERE
2) Put both Novo_Tools_1_0.apk and recovery.img in /sdcard of your Funbook Infinity.
3) Install Novo_Tools_1_0.apk as a normal app.
4) Open NovoTools and grant SU (SuperUser) permissions.
5) Click Flash Recovery in NovoTools and wait for few seconds.
6) Next Click Enter Recovery in NovoTools and You will go to CWM Recovery 6.0.2.8.
Note :
i) If You Want to Go To Recovery :
ii) Switch Off the Tab.
iii) Press and Hold Home And Power Keys at the same time.
or
Use Novo_Tools.(Enter Reocvery option)
Note : This updated CWM reocvery contains the *** Go Back *** option which favours devices like P275 which doesn't sport back or volume rocker button.
Installing P275 ADB Drivers :
If your tab is not rooted, even after trying both Methods, then the problem must be the ADB drivers. Here is a guide for installing them.
1) First, download the P275-Drivers.rar from HERE [Dev-Host] and Extract it anywhere in your PC.
2) Go to Settings > Developer Options > (and tick) USB Debugging ON
3) Connect your tablet to your PC via USB Cable.
4) Open Device Manager (Seach in Start)
5) Under Other Devices, you will see Android with a caution symbol.
Note : If you do not see the Android with a caution symbol, then ADB drivers are already installed in your PC and you don't need to continue...
6) Right-Click on Android and select Update Drivers and a dialog box will appear. Select Browse my Computer for Driver Software
7) Browse for the folder that you extracted earlier and click OK.
8) A warning will appear. Click Install the driver software anyway.The ADB drivers will be installed.
9) The caution symbol will disappear and you will see Android Composite ADB Interface.

Thank you for a quick response.
But I want to know how to go back to stock recovery after installing CMW?
The only reason I think I will go back to stock is in situation where in I have to take the tab to the service centre.
Thanks,
