[Completed] How to root an Ematic EGQ-780 - XDA Assist

I did search both for this device and rooting in general, and there are a few threads; most with no responses, so I thought I'd try.
I'm looking to root a stock Ematic EGQ-780. Two possibilities came up via Google, One-Click-Root and KingoApp (which is also mentioned in a thread here). KingoApp is mentioned here as being a solution; but when I contacted them, they told me the EGQ-780 is not supported. One-Click-Root also has a page saying they support this tablet; but when I go through the procedure it stops when I'm told to select the correct model and build number and they have not not returned any attempts to contact them for the last 7-10 days or so. The tablet looks to be a pretty standard set-up of Kit Kat 4.4. My main reason to root is that I'd like to be able to change the settings so apps can access the SD card as the on-board storage is only 8 GB. This is a secondary device so it's not crucial; but it would be much more useful if I could root it. Thanks.

Hi,
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device. You will need to ask for help here,

[Q] disgo Tablet 7900

I've recently bought a disgo Tablet 7900 to have a cheap tablet to play with. In overall, I am pleased with it, however I want to do the following:
Connect to an ad-hoc network using wifi
Install Android Market
For the first option, I think I need root access. I found some topics on the internet which stated Android can connect to ad-hoc wifi networks when modifying 2 files.
However, I cannot find any information on how to get root access on a disgo 7900 tablet. I've tried some "one-click rooting application" such as z4root and Universal Androot, however had no success.
The device runs on Android 2.2 (Froyo) and has 2 micro-sd slots, an ethernet port, 2x USB port, mini-HD port and a 3.5 mini-jack for headphone.
So no mini-usb for connection to a pc.
Anyone had any success on getting root access with this device? Or can point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!

Welcome, the XDA community is about development. There are several other sites that might be able to specifically address your specific questions and issues.
Posting a message at one of the sites, noted below, more suited to user assistance will probably lead to a quicker resolution. Answers that may apply are already posted! If possible search first.
Your tablet is closely related to the Sylvania 10-inch Magni Tablet - SYTAB10MT (SYNET10LP), where on the androidtablets.net Sylvania Tablets Forum there is a detailed description of multiple root methods and the steps to add adhoc gathered from the xda-developers Android Ad-hoc support hack/wpa_supplicant - xda-developers thread.
There are three (3) forums dedicated to Technical Help for the various models of Superpad's, a similar infoTMIC powered tablet, at apad.tv Main-Forum.
The is one (1) dedicated sub-forum and one (1) Unlisted InfoTM forum in the Infotmic subforums at SlateDroid.com.
There are also the Sylvania/Disgo 6000/AIRIS and Infotmic Based discussions at androidtablets.net of which many of the issues/solutions could apply to your tablet.
As xda pulls users from all over the world, here are a few International discussions as well regarding the 10" infoTMIC powered tablets all of which have similar issues therefore the solution approach are often applicable.
There at several forums related to devices at the Russian - 4PDA
Since the tablet is also closely related the to some models of the Flytouch there are several Spanish discussions on-going at Tabletsmania
Portugal's adroidPT APAD forum has a few discssuion's of the SuperPad.
Finally, there is a post about the specific Hardware ID's "hwver" and how to match it to the appropriate InfoTMIC Update Wrap files described in infoTMIC Hardware ID's "hwver" and updates (*.ius) which provides some additional links that will get you well on your way to resolving your issue.
Good luck
Hi there
I need to reactivate this topic. I just bought a used Disgo 7900 and upgraded it to Gingerbread 2.3.3 from their website. Since this is Chineese tablet there is no Android Market and other usefull aps installed. I tryed different versions of the market apk's but none works. All do crash.
Code:
Modell: disgo7900
Android: 2.3.3
Kernel: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #76
Build: GRI40
The problem is, that I can't get it rooted. Gingerbreak does not work. It is trying and trying for hours but without success. There is no "Development"-Menu for activation USB-Debugg - but I installed a USB-Debugg-App for activatiing it.
It seems that the device has a different bootloader. When accessing the recovery mode by pressing "home" - "back" - and "power" it starts automaticly loading a recovery image without having a chance to choose custom files.
The device seems to be similar to the so called Superpad http://www.android-tablet-compariso...pare-android-tablets.php?t1=super2&t2=dis7900
I tryed severa methods form the links above - until now nothing worked. Any ideas how to root this device?
Or is there a chance to have a working custom rom?
Hello hstop,
I've also updated my device to Android 2.3.3.
I've tried to root the device with z4root, however also no luck because it's asking for USB-debugging. I am going to try the app you've mentioned and try again.
Also, no success with installing the Market-app...
Edit: Cannot find an .apk-file to install the "USB Debug"-app. hstop, can you tell me how you installed it on your tablet?
I did this !
On all DisGo tablets with 2.3.3 u need:
USBDebug_1.0.apk
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7Cmt_BvYmR3b2FfeGEwc0tRbUd5d0hCaC16SFVaZw
and
SuperOneClick 2.3.3
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7Cmt_BvYmR3MEM1LVlxOHlRNDJUNUY0TUJONUxfUQ
Some antivirus programs might show this archive as virus, it's becouse there is expolit for android to root the device.
I will do some tutorial tomorrow.
Sorry for my bad english :/
Cewl! Well done, levvvy! Cannot wait for the tutorial!
And it would be more cewler when the installation of the Android Market is included in your tutorial!
any ideas?
Hi Levvvy, did you have any luck with this tutorial? I have downloaded the above items but the device doesnt plug into the pc so not sure what to do now. thanks
Any progress with the tutorial?
Or has anyone any other ideas how to root this abysmal Tablet

nook tablet root error

Trying to root my moms new nook (her request) and was rolling along until I hit the nook zergy screen (in red) and it won't read the device to root. I'm basically at step 5/5 just can't see what im missing. I've exhausted Google on this and can't seem to find an answer. I'm noobish to this so from prior experience do I need sdk tools for windows?
Everything is installed (drivers etc) NO SD CARD INSTALLED (make a difference?)
Admins plz move if I posted in wrong area. First post and was directed to general q&a for this questioned instead of the forum I pulled the root info from. Thanks
Anybody.....anybody?
I had the exact same problem. Zergy asked if I saw the nook and I typed "n" and pressed enter and it said something about lieing and I couldnt proceed. Now the computer doesnt recognize the tablet at an android device in device manager. (I unplugged it and tried to do the process over again...)
I am also facing same problem. Tried in Six deferent pc with no luck.

[Completed] [Q] cannot bigpart or upgrade my Xooms

I hope I'm not doing soemthing wrong here, but I've given up trying to update my Xooms. So I copy my post on Questions & Answers to this area. 50 views got no response over there. Any relevant information might get me interested again. Thank You, and please delete this post if it's out of order.
GreyBeard51
(newby with two xooms,a kindle fire, and Linux Mint 17) I love Xoom.
"I have two identical xooms. The model number lists as "Xoom". Android version is 4 .1.2 , build JZ054K, kernal version 2.6.39.4-g4e32b94 . I've been trying for days to update at least one of them. I'm using a Linux Mint 17 desktop. No Windows available.
I've tried everything I found on these forums, and nothing has worked. I have 32gb external sd cards in both of them. My first trak was to do it from the SD card but I found that recovery cannot see my SD card. I also tried putting " BigPart" in a directory called downloads, but that didn't help. I also tried loading it onto the internal card. Can't see it either way.
I downloaded the Linux android files and plugged in the USB cable. I could talk to the Xoom, and tell it to reboot the bootlooder into fastboot or recovery, and the Xoom would reboot but lock up at the "loading fastboot" screen. I tried sideloading the BigPart file, but the install would fail on validation. If I try to enter fastboot by rebooting it locks on the loading screen. If I load recovery on boot it appears to come up but It can't see the SD cards or accept the files from the computer (From adb).
One of these Xoom's I gedfied and the other was a google device when I bought it. Both got all of their last bunch of updates thru Google, until Google dropped them. Could the google updates have left something needed out??
As I understand the process getting Big part on the device is the first step. I have all needed files for the upgrade,on my SD cards and on my Linux machine. I just can't use them. Anyone have any ideas? Does anyone know where and what the OS is looking for during that attempted USB update??"
Hi there,
Sorry but this section is for helping guide new members on where to find their answer on XDA.

Ematic EGQ-780

I'm a total newbie to rooting, as I've never attempted it before. I purchased a cheap Ematic EGQ-780 tablet; but it has very little on-board memory (8 GB). Since it's a Kit Kat tablet, I can't really utilize the SD card as I'd like to expand this tablet so I would like to root it. None of the solutions I found before (One-click Root and KingoApp) seem to support rooting this tablet (although there is an XDA thread that suggests KingoApp might work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/har...ic-egq780-bu-android-4-4-tablet-root-t2919878 ) seem to work. Does anyone think Framaroot will work? How should I proceed? Thanks.
If it helps, the 'build number' for my tablet is:
A31S_Q791_Q7911L1B2C_OGS_79D4.20140425.V001

[Completed] GPS unlock

Hello, I'd like to kindly ask for some assistance.
I got a GPS device Telesystem ts 8511 running on windows ce 5.0. I tried to update maps on it but it wouldn't let me, beacuse of licenses. So I tried to unlock it with Miopocket. But in the process I have formatted SD card on which there was quite a lot of factory installed GPS program and navigation didn't work anymore, nor did Miopocket (couldn't find a way to instal it). So I found a way to rest the device by using files providet by manufacturer on it's website. that procedure lead me to point where device is asking for SD card I formatted earlier.
I'm triying to get to the os in the device and install some other navigation app on it.
I would really appreciate some help.
