installed tnt lite on my g tab...first step running z4root....tab is up and running..
ran security check on toshiba computer and had the following virus warning..
z4root...exploit:wnix/lotoor....listed as severe threat..my security program deleted the apk..i know there can be a false positive, but i am concerned if this threat is now on my gtab? your thoughts?
thanks...steve n
Most likely a false positive, but either way windows viruses can't infect your tablet. Android malware is a completely different beast.

+1 Definately a false positive
Windows malware can't affect Android and visa versa.
Also, though z4Root is an exploit script it is not Android Malware.
thanks for quick reply..both of them
thanks very much ... that was the answer i was looking for...
again..thanks for helping to nospin and tekrhino

Is spam/viruses protection necessary?
So this brings up something I've been wondering about. Do we need to protect the G-Tab against spam and viruses? Is there a vulnerability? If so, what is recommended?
Thanks!

I suppose someone could cross compile clamav

There is a patch currently available to correct this exploit for all pre Gingerbread ROMs (TnT, VEGA, etc...)

Also, I installed Lookout Mobile Security to scan all new apps that I install because I do a lot of sideloading and get many apps via newsgroups.
So I need to be extra careful considering where I go to get apps.
Another method I tend to use before installing sideloaded apps is a batch conversion to zip "ren *.apk *.zip" then scan the zip files with anitvirus on my pc.
If they come out clean I will batch convert them back to apk "ren *.zip *.apk" then proceed to install at will.
I know that Windows & Android Malware are two different types but you NEVER KNOW with those that have malicious intent hence having Lookout Mobile Security installed on my GTAB. I'm just trying to cover all sides.

I used to work with WM 5 & 6 phones, had plenty of them and enjoyed them all until I discovered the HTC Magic. What a giant leap forward!! Especially when using Google Apps as we do. I am however a bit reluctant to root the magic as it doesn’t seem like a walk in the park. I really miss being able to backup SMS messages and all the other apps that only run on rooted devices.
So my question is if the HERO is a rooted device or not.
Does anybody have an answer to this question? I’m so tempted to preorder one
the answer to the question should be probably yes seing how people have the system dump files. so its just a matter of time
In the meantime, you can back up SMS and MMS with GBackup from Market - backs up to Gmail automatically - can also back up call log and pics...

Apologies for my ignorance but what does rooting the phone mean? I've just come from using a Windows mobile phone - which I have been using since the original SPV!
Root access comes from Unix - Linux operating system speak (which is what Android runs on). Root basically means administrator privileges. So if you can run under root access then you have privileges to change/modify/do anything.
In the phone out of the box you do not have root to protect the phone from modifications that could brick it. People who do modifications under root access need to either know what they are doing, or follow a script from someone who knows what they are doing.
Ofcourse it's not 'rooted' when you unpack it from the box.
Eventually I'll guess the Hero will be rooted, but when and how... we'll just have to wait.

But as in Unix /Linux you use an ordinary login for normal day to operations and su to to use root. You have to consciously change your privelidges which is safer!!

A friend of mine picked up a Proscan PLT7044k. Great cheap tablet from BigLots they wanted to gift me as a late birthday present. Sure it's cheap, but cheap can be good right? Especially if it's a backup device or something to tinker with.
Trouble is we're running into some issues. Fine. Great it's a cheap Chinese tablet. We both get that we're not expecting nexus or ipad mini or even kindle fire quality. However GetJar is, apparently, not working correctly, Amazon Marketplace (which it was linked to in the device) will not let you change settings, and My friend isn't wanting to try rooting to get google play working just yet because we're not sure if the Thread found on the matter has all the bugs worked out.
This Thread seems to be closest to what 'we' want but the model number is different (it's supposed t obe the same device save for the one we're working with included a hardware keyboard/case, but one never knows.)
Of Note when queried my friend only saw a one gig internal storage device instead of the four gig advertised and described the external media slot as a SD slot instead of a micro-sd.
So, since I am, for the moment, treating this device as different and not wanting to risk bricking before info can be gained on if it's worht keeping or taken back, trying to figure out the following:
Very minimum how does one get google play on this gizmo.
Is there anything that can be done about the touch screen lag?
Is there a CyanogenMod port that will work or other custom rom that might help with the issues of lag?
Any advice would be welcome/useful. Even 'RTFM' with links to other threads.
Edit: Be Aware my 'primary' computer is running linux (peppermint OS3, ubuntu 12.04 based distro.)
I just got this tablet. You have root accesses out of the box. There are 2 ways I have installed play store. Through root explorer and through adb push. google gapps for jellybean. here is the manual and firmware proscanvideo.com/item.asp?itemnmbr=PLT7044K . I can make a tute anyone needs.
I ended up taking mine back and getting a Nook Touch. Sure I'll still need to root the thing to get much use out of it beyond being an e-reader but even with it not-rooted it's still actually a pretty good experiance.
Sorry Icouldn't be a trailblazer to anyone getting a proscan and wanting to improve on it.
a noob, but I honestly have tried...

ok, I have tried very VERY hard to find out how to root my proscan plt7044k. I've tried following the few links that I have found, and have found them to be broken. Or the items just won't download onto my computer or just flat don't work. It appears that what I have to do is to find a driver for this thing so that my computer can recognize it, and the Curtis website doesn't give any driver information. Yes, I did download their manuals and tech material, and they DON'T WORK. All they provide is a powerpoint thing that says to "find program x, do y, etc", without providing that program. I cannot find a driver for this p.o.s. ANYWHERE, nor any that would work for an earlier model and then also "might" work for mine.
I really want to get rid of the "getjar" crap, as well as all of the bloatware that google puts into these things!

i used wkindows 7 or 8 from an internet cafe and my proscan is plt7602g and it worked fine...i even reset from the android service menu (green dead dude) and it worked but make sure most of all that you have the verify apps off so you can root it. because it will still be a danger to ur tablet. there is always a bricking chance, one you instakll kingoo root and run the program plug in ur tablet press root and the app takes care of it all. and if you google kingoo app or kingoo root it will show a main website and go from there

so much for this method - I used kingo root for windows, slow but works. just go grab a beer and come back in ten.
Hello XDA, I'm new here and I haven't found any info regarding root on the aforementioned tablet. I know its only been out a short while and isn't anything to shake a stick at, however I believe that the ability to root and install custom ROMs on this device would allow it to run much smoother even with the low grade hardware.
Anyhow if anyone is willing to look into rooting I would be appreciative. I did find something where a fella tried kingoroot, towelroot, and one other method which apparently worked on the ellipsis 7, but had no success. If anyone else is in favor reply and let's get some attention. Thanks XDA.

It's a real shame that no one's done this. There are guys, here, that write whole ROMs for tablets they don't even own and no one's taken a shot at a root. Not being a coder, i can't but there are so many talented guys here i'm just really surprised someone didn't lean over, fart, and put out a root. lol.
Just no real demand for it for these tablets.
Verizon is charging more for these than what you would pay for a MUCH better tablet like a Nexus 7, or Gpad 8.3, etc...
The only people that are "buying" them, are the ones that VZW is giving away for free with you upgrade your phone and add the tablet to your data plan for $10 a month. If not for them giving them away for free, nobody would have one.
I'm stuck with a nexus 8 and require root.
the latest update was forced and now hundreds of my apps will not work due to not being allowed to change sd card files. Root for me is not cool or optional.

Hundreds of apps don't work with the small and incremental update? Like which ones?
For 1, I cannot imagine even having hundreds of apps... But the update was a small one, nothing significant, and I don't see why they would have stopped working?
Disabling writing to the SD is hardly incremental!
can't add new accounts
about half my created files on SD were deleted (save games, notes, configurations)
since existing files on SD cannot be changed, and new SD files cannot be created, the following apps will not function as I need them too, or fail to do anything:
roguelike classics
angband variants
angband
humble bundle app
es file manager
astro file manager
retro arch
and bible
hacker's keyboard
teamviewer for remote
teamviewer quicksupport
android VNC
scummvm
gdosbox
unipatcher
andftp
nesemu
snes9x
gbaemu
androgens
freeciv
That's just a few of the top of my head. Since some of those are emus, each adds hundreds more games and software that will not work (I own over 8000).

What format is your SD card formatted in? Maybe something changed with the update... like the Shield Tablet cannot write to the SD card if it is over 32GB and formatted with exFAT... it needs to be in NTFS for anything higher than 32GB...
Maybe the same case here? Try copying the files to your PC, format the SD card with your PC(and specify NTFS and defaults for everything else), not the tablet because the tablet will format in exFAT even if it is larger than 32GB...
Try that and see if it works.
My Ellipsis 8 is on the latest update, and I can read and write to the SD card just fine... Not sure what the issues are that you are having.
What size SD card do you have?
I have this tab, and rooted. It took me a while to get the right combination though. Go here (it's in Chinese): http://www.kingroot.net and click on the download button with the Android icon to download the kingroot apk. Find a way to install the downloaded apk to your tab. You are rooted. I didn't like the kinguser root manager so I used this Replace_Kingroot_With_SuperSU.zip to change to SuperSU for root managing. The zip is attached. Just unzip, copy the "mrw" folder to your tab and use adb as root (either terminal emulator or adb shell from your computer) to run this command:
sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
. Ignore the errors that may appear. After a while SuperSU will open and ask you to update binary. Do so and reboot. you are still rooted, but with SuperSU as root manager.
Now if only there were any custom ROMs...

Muniz I ran the batch file and it worked great getting rid of all that bloat. Thank you very much. One thing that surprised me though is that I went from 5.15GB of used internal storage to 4.98GB after debloating and that's after running CCleaner to get rid of any left over junk. I was expecting to gain more memory space considering how many apps were removed. Is this normal? Thanks

there's three settings in the batch script. which one did you use?
also, the bloat apps aren't really that big, they're all near the 10-20mb or less ballpark. accumulating 20 of them up probably frees up like maybe 100-200 mb of space. this is of course wild speculation as I usually make but still, something to consider

Thanks for getting back. I used extreme setting. I guess the files are not as large as I thought. I may not have gained much memory space but at least the bloat is gone.
I gave adb root permissions through SuperSU, ran this (slightly customized extreme, I kept Hangouts), and verified that the folders have been removed. After doing that, many of the apps I still had to manually uninstall (is that normal?), and some I'm not sure if I even can remove some (I just have a disable option).
I know you guys know better than I, but is simply removing these directories from /system/app enough to uninstall the applications?
Thanks.

Someone needs to capture the ota so that a pre-rooted ROM can be created.

Hello,
I'm a programmer (in college, mostly C & C++), but my knowledge of android is limited to rooting my S4 and other stuff I've gleaned while lurking on xda.
A quick search for how to capture an ota seems that it's not terribly difficult to do. ex http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1589754
Is my impression (capturing ota update is not hard) correct? If so, why hasn't it been done? If the answers to those questions are "Yes" and "No good reason," respectively, I might be able to donate some of my time to do it. Would that be useful?

thank you so much i finally was able to root my phone last night! you are awesome!
it says "no such file or directory" for everything on my phone when I run it. Any ideas there?
Just want to start out by saying, I HATE HATE HATE how Android has to keep everything so secretive and hard to access. Android works great, but when you want to do something as simple as grabbing files from an app, everything tries its hardest to stand in your way from root access bs to apps detecting if Magisks non functional anti hide is on the system. Enabling root and using root file access apps are so damn useless and crash all the time. Worst part is, they don't even show the files you are looking for when you find the right directories so wtf, what's even the point. /rant
I have a game/app that stores files on my expanded SD card storage. The files get downloaded *somewhere* and my phone detects the 5 GB of storage its using. How can I find the exact directory my phone is using that calculates the size of the files, and how can I gain access to these files to copy over FTP / USB / ADB etc to my computer.
I've spent so many hours trying to figure this out. Closest I got was making ADB backup pulls for the app but the archive is corrupt / incomplete every time so nothing will extract in full.
My device is a Samsung Note 3 running Android 7.1 Lineage.
Figured I would come here for help since I bet there's some Android developers that know a simple trick or two to just extract some simple unencrypted files. Very very much appreciated for any tips or guidance!

Enabling root and using root file access apps are so damn useless and crash all the time. Worst part is, they don't even show the files you are looking for when you find the right directories so wtf, what's even the point. /rant
I have a game/app that stores files on my expanded SD card storage. The files get downloaded *somewhere* and my phone detects the 5 GB of storage its using. How can I find the exact directory my phone is using that calculates the size of the files, and how can I gain access to these files to copy over FTP / USB / ADB etc to my computer.
I've spent so many hours trying to figure this out. Closest I got was making ADB backup pulls for the app but the archive is corrupt / incomplete every time so nothing will extract in full.
My device is a Samsung Note 3 running Android 7.1 Lineage.
Figured I would come here for help since I bet there's some Android developers that know a simple trick or two to just extract some simple unencrypted files. Very very much appreciated for any tips or guidance!
