Hi all,
yesterday I succeeded in rooting the new ASUS MeMo Pad HD 7.
Model-Number: ME173X
Android version: 4.2.1
Kernel version: 3.4.5
HD 7 Build: ME173X_WW_User_4.2.1.75146_20130523 release keys
PC operating system: Win.. XP
USB-Driver I used (but there's WdfCoInstaller.dll missing, which I already had on my PC):
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/ME172V/ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows_20130415.zip
Maybe this more complete package would work, too (I didn't try that):
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/TF101/ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows.zip
Method to root is by using motochopper.
You can follow the next steps in general as described in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40129120&postcount=1
One important thing:
motochopper didn't recognize my HD7 at once, so I did the following
(while being connected with PC via USB and motochopper waiting for device):
While USB debugging activated, go to USB settings an connect it as
integrated CD drive. motochopper will automatically recognize it
and continue with rooting process.
And last but not least:
As always, all you do is your own risk and I'm not responsible for any damage.
Good luck
-----------------------------
EDIT 2013-07-06:
Above procedure for rooting works with the new HD7 update, too (but you have to re-root after the update).
Build version after the update: ME173X_WW_user_4.2.2.51129_20130619 release-keys
-----------------------------
Description for Linux users:
- use motochopper package from link above
- login as root
- extract package
- open console and change to directory where you extracted the package
- chmod +x adb.linux
- chmod +x run.sh
- Check your HD7 will be recognized:
-> ./adb.linux status-window
-> shows "State: unknown"
-> connect HD7 (with usb debugging enabled, connecting as MTP device)
-> above started adb command should show now "State: device"
-> HD7 recognized - greatful, you're ready
-> press Strg-C to abort
- (optional) for more information about your HD7 you can enter: ./adb.linux devices -l
-> this should show something like: D6OKCXXXXXXX device usb:1-3 product:WW_memo model:ME173X device:ME173X
- ./run.sh
-> follow instructions on screen
- you're done
-----------------------------
EDIT 2013-07-16:
Above procedure for rooting works with new HD7 update (but you have to re-root after the update).
Build version after the update: ME173X_WW_user_4.2.2.91525_20130711 release-keys
Thank you very much! I had it attached as a camera, worked fine as well. ^^

Amazon.de apparently received an early batch and sent them out immediately. I was surprised as well, target date was 10 July to 1 August and it arrived 25 June^^

SoWhy is right.
I bought mine last Thursday at amazon.de.
There were also some dealers on Amazon‘s marketplace who had some.
hi
it is possible to enable usb host with the root on the memo pad hd 7?
Memo Pad HD7
Thanks...
Have been looking for Root ever since I got one Device on Friday.
Root seems to be working fine.
By the way - Saturn Germany got stock now as well (blue and white back) - bought 3 more today.
The MircoSD is taking 32GB straight from my Galaxy Note 10.1 - the resolution is really cool and no errors or problems.
I personally can do no more than highly recommend the Tablet.
Change - just made a firmware update to 4.2.2 - root is gone...

Thanks for reporting that.
Do you mean that rooting is no more possible with 4.2.2 firmware?
Current version 4.2.1 is somewhat buggy. Launcher FC quite often. It would make sense to download 4.2.2 but it would be unusable for me without root

Well, I wouldn't say not possible. It's just that I couldn't manage to get it done de same way so far.
The 4.2.2 update is pretty neat. The tablet works more stable now. The home screen rotates and the display is much brighter.
Just some update features I discovered.
As of root I was hoping that someone would discover some different, more stable way - like CF-Autoroot on the Nexus 7.
I‘m a little busy at the moment.
Hope to have a look on 4.2.2 on weekend.

Does it show the Android version 4.2.2 in System information? Or is it still 4.2.1 (and it says ME173X_WW_user_4.2.2.51129_20130619 in build number)?
I have Android version 4.2.1 and build number mentioned above. And I got it rooted without any problems on Linux (the way it is described in OP).

Funny - you're right... :laugh: Didn't see that one.
Got exactly the same build no (ME173X_WW_user_4.2.2.51129_20130619 release-keys) and above Android Version 4.2.1...
I am running Linux too - couldn't make root so far - did you use some different settings?

Nothing special... The only trouble I had in the beginning was to get ADB responding properly. I have different versions of adb utilities on my PC. Other ones did not work, the one in motochopper package worked fine. I was using the original motochopper files. I had to use root rights (running script with sudo) to get it working. Might be that this is the showstopper for you
Full sequence should be something like this:
* Switch on developer mode (multiple clicks in about box on build number).
* Find developer options in the setup menu. Switch on USB debuging.
* Plug in the USB cable, try different USB modes (I think I made it using cd-rom mode, modes can be changed in storage settings under advanced "USB computer connection" menu from the top-right corner menu icon).
* Run the motochopper script with sudo.

Have you tried running adb.linux separately? Does it connect?
Run it first with "kill-server" argument and then "shell", for example.
If you get shell access then you should be able to root it. If not then there is something wrong in your pc setup or tab settings.
I assume it worked before you updated your HD7.
Hello everybody,
as promised I got some time to deal with the update.
In short, rooting with this update works, too (but you have to re-root after the update).
Build version after the update shows: ME173X_WW_user_4.2.2.51129_20130619 release-keys
I updated post #1 and put some additional information for linux users.

My Memo HD7 arrived yesterday an it is great ! (amazon.de / germany)
Rooting procedure worked on Win 7 without installing new drivers very easy.
To turn on Developer Mode to switch USB debugging Mode on:
Build Number:
ME173X_WW_user_4.2.1.75146_20130532
Open “Settings”.
Scroll to the bottom and tap “About phone” or “About tablet”.
At the “About” screen, scroll to the bottom and tap on “Build number” seven times.
You will see a “You are now a developer!” message pop up, then you know you have done it correctly.
Done!
You can now enable/disable it under “Settings” -> “Developer Options” -> “Debugging” ->” USB debugging”.
Then just run "run.bat" from motochopper (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40129120&postcount=1) and
follow the instructions.
Sorry for offtopic but any info what's new in this update 4.2.2? I'm from Bulgaria and don't have update yet. l'm still with first version ME173X_WW_User_4.2.1.75146_20130523.

Hello. How do I connect an Asus Zenfone 5 Lite to a PC in UMS Mode?
I only see teo options, MTP anf UTP. I also enabed USB Debugging.
Thanks in advance
up

Hiii..........
You might not know this but android has stopped supporting USB Mass Storage / UMS mode any any of the mobiles running android 4.0 or up
So unfortunately there is no way you can enable mass storage on your Asus Zenfone 5 .
Dont think this is a problem in this mobile........its just that now no new mobiles will support ums mode
Hope it helped you
Please press thanks button...It also helps me a lot :highfive:
My device info:
Build number: rk3368-userdebug 9 PQ2A.190205.003 eng.hct2.20190411.192110 test-keys
Kernel version: 4.4.167
MCU version: MTCE_GS_V3.07_3
In settings menu I don't see lot of std android settings (probably hidden for normal user).
I would like to enable split screen (it is disabled by default - 7 inch screen), but I can not enter developer options.
Standard android way with tapping build number is not working.
I also tried apps (e.g. "developer options) but it does not work - it shows "First enabled developer options".
I also tried rooting (simple way) with code (*#htc#root#) in factory settings, and with kingoroot. It does not work.
Do I need use adb for that?
Additionally clock is not working properly. After vehicle shutdown signal - radio is falling a sleep. After wakeup it looks like time freeze.
If I activate GPS time adjust it makes clock late 30 minutes.
If I activate internet time update it makes clock late 1h - probably because of winter / summer time switch, but I don't see that setting (also hidden).
Any help would be pleasent
I would try to change to stock rom.
But Im not sure if that would be even possible if I do not enable developer options first and next usb debug to access adb and flash mode.
Maybe it could be done by MCU update file? somehow make it to change system configuration?

for what vehicle is that HU ?
i have same for opel, and have problems with stering wheel buttons, when i press next or back button it react like i press it 2 or 3 times :/
do you know how to enter recovery in that unit? maybe flash other MCU file ?
It is my device
https://xtrons.com/renault-megane-iii-fluence-android-9-0-pa79mg3rip
For me wheel buttons work well.
However try to check factory settings
Settings > Factory settings > enter code (126 in my case) > Keys
I have there option to change CAN bus to proper vehicle model.
Unfortunetaly I don't have experience with flashing such devices. Until now I was flashing only smartphones.
There were lot of tutorials how to do that. For Android auto HU I dont know even how to start.
For smartphone you could enter recovery by adb, but first you need unlock USB debugging. If you have access to developer options you could do that - that is not my cas.. sadly.
EDIT:
I found solution for time issue
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72946736&postcount=4
EDIT2:
Better solution
1. Get root
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76725981&postcount=740
2. Use that app

EDIT3:
1. Malaysk ROM!!!
Clock work without any problem, I have split screen on my 7 inch device
For those of you who cannot wait until miui 11 - here is a easy trick to activate dark mode
How to enable dark mode
Connect your device to your PC , open command prompt in the same directory where ADB binary is stored
Enable Dark Mode: adb shell settings put secure ui_night_mode 2 Disable Dark Mode: adb shell settings put secure ui_night_mode 1
Reboot your phone to get the system-wide dark mode
*before doing these change your theme to classic version
*enable usb debugging security settings as well - once you activated dark mode you can turn it off.
im using global rom with locked bootloader
10.3.5.0
source:
http://c.mi.com/thread-2274658-1-0.html
Or just use eu roms and that option is built in.
As far as I understand, we have to enter these lines everytime if we want to switch from dark to white vice versa? I can't see any toggle after I enabled the dark mode. I even tried the (auto) mode and it is not changing.
Works great! MIUI 10 Beta 9.6.27, locked bootloader.
Thank you very much!!

Yes you are right
There will be no toggle
They hide this toggle in poco phone but dark mode is still supported
For my case I don't change between modes
It will happen only once

I am happy that it worked ???
Worked on Pocophone F1
Worked on Pocophone F1 (MIUI Global 10.3.7)
You are the BEST....I had this issue where I couldn't change to system mode (after plugin in the android car it changed to dark mode and won't come back to the default)....
I've tried a lot of stuff to change it back to default and nothing worked...
Now it worked thanks to you!!!

that's what I'm getting even after setting the theme to classic mode.

You must activate developer options (security) for it to work.
I got the same issue that you before enable that option.

the developer option is ON and it still showing this
There's another option below the developer options, Developer Options (Security Settings). You have to enable that. MIUI will ask if you want to enable it, just wait for 5 seconds and tap yes, and you're good to go.
Hi,
I m trying to enable "USB debugging (Security settings)" on my Xiaomi Fold 2 in developer options but I keep getting the notification "The device is temporary restricted 3-2".
I already tried to disable wifi and try it via mobile data but no luck. Also tried it via a China VPN but also this does not work.
Some more info:
The notification is NOT 3-3 but 3-2 (on Google all there is is information about 3-2)
My model is 22061218C
No root
MIUI 14.0.9
Any thoughts?
