Hi all,
I'm having real issues trying to root my Toshiba Folio 100 which I got today. Basically, I'm at the part where I install the adb drivers. While I'm usually pretty good with Android, I thought maybe it's where I've done something wrong. So, I literally uninstalled everything and started from scratch with the Android SDK. I followed this guide to the letter here:
addictivetips.com / mobile / what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/
Then carried on with this guide here:
addictivetips.com / mobile / enable-adb-usb-drivers-for-nvidia-tegra-based-android-tablets/
I carried on and on (although I changed 0955 to 8086 in the inf file as that is my device ID) and when I go to select the drivers, I push along even though it gives me the warnings and when I get to the end, it comes up with this error:
"This device cannot start (Code 10)".
Googling this error comes up with a bunch of related queries that don't relate to me, and the MS website is absolutely useless for resolving this (it tells me to update the drivers).
So, I'm at a loss. I've tried everything I can think of and to no avail. So, I'm praying you guys can help me out so I can root this tablet. If I can't, I may as well sell it back on or return it, as this device doesn't mean that much to me without the Marketplace or Custom ROM capabilities.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: My apologies, I should list my specs just in case it's relevant (I know the OS version will be, at least)
Core i7 2600K
GeForce GTX 560 Ti

Hello,
THBK1-10 is a cheap dual system (Android 4.2.2 /Windows 8.1) tablet based on Bay Trail (Intel Atom Z3740D). More details http://www.thomsoncomputing.eu/dualboot.html
I'm trying to hack it, and especially get root and use non-signed zip in recovery. Basically i'm stuck at theses points, and i'm requesting directions to continue the work.
I have posted in W8 section, but obviously, this is no longer the place
General
------------
* i can use a work-around to write system (/system, /data) partitions
* i can flash signed updates via recovery
* google apps are working flawesly. Only thing is to keep original files (stock keyboard and layout)
-> i would like to flash non-signed zip via recovery, but i guess i have to build a custom recovery, or can i exploit something else ?
Root:
-------
* no auto root is working (z4root, towelRoot). Regarding towelRoot, i tryed each 8 common parameters, and i don't really know how to do others. I have also heard this is only working in 4.4.2+
* pushing su is not working. When i'm launching it, let's say from terminal, i have a code 255 return (-1). Tested with both arm and x86 version (i'm still wondering why arm su is also returning -1, i would have expect a non valid binary. Or perhaps my x86 version is bad ?
-> i'm still trying to dig this issue, and idea on how i could do ? i believe running SU was enough... but it seems not. Any idea ?
Many thanks !
Bump. the way it is booting is based on ramdisk images (one for normal android boot, one for android recovery).
I have acces to theses img, and i can, with hexedit (perhaps mounting them directly at a filesystem), view the whole init sequence.
My question is : what triggers the root invalidation ? AFAIK, everything is done as root (mounting FS, updating permissions, etc....). Basically i can't really figure how it is handled.
Thank you !
Solved !

Woaw ! I'm very happy to see that somebody tried and succeed to root the THBK1 ! Please can you share your method in a tutorial when you'll have time ? :laugh:
Hello, yes !
I'm actually writing a GAPPS tuto, which is intensively tested by Zeksaine. Root will be added, as this is only a simple step inside the whole process.
This is a bit technical (read boring), but it worths the try. My TODO list is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799404 , and while i'll take a little break, i hope soon to have custom recovery allowing you to directly flash gapps or supersu.
Yes ! I confirm ! Graveen has installed GAPPS on Thomoson THBK1 / Danew Dualboot tablet with sucess ! I'm not familiarised with linux environnement and realize it, but it requires some knowledges of linux command (coLinux especially)
Graveen is the only one users identified that it can put GAPPS on android environnement concerning this tablet.
Big thanks to him !

I own a Cube U100GT and it's one of the many Chinese brothers of your THBK1-10. But mine came only with W 8.1.
I just start looking for a dual boot solution and I'm happy to know that it's is possible.
I don't need root for while, just play some games and apps.
So the original Android "ROM" of the tablet can do the job.
My version have 64Gb SSD and I've already resize the Win partition to make room for a new system.
Where can I look for a dual boot tuto and find this Android version?
Heya, can you post your partition list ?
What is the bios of your tablet ? Can you wire an USB keyboard to see this at boot ?
Basically, they effectively seems identical.
For partial update, you can find one here: http://www.danew.com/support-pilotes-manuels.php?type=218&produit=219 but it relies on existing android partitions i still have not dumped.
Android-x86 could worth a try also, although i doubt you will have all drivers (touch, gyro, etc..)

The partition list is the standard for a windows installation (but no windows image on the end):
1: 300 Mb (Windows RE)
2: 100 Mb (System)
3: The rest (Windows). My SSD is 64Gb.
My tablet already comes with a dedicated keyboard cover, so I have full access to to UEFI Bios.
There's a lot of numbers:
Aptio Setup Utility Version 2.16.1242
Vendor - AMI
Core Version - 5.008
Project Version - 3BAGR 0.03
EC FW Version - 201401101A
Intel GOP driver - 7.0.1029
Sec RC Version - 00.05.00.00
TXE FW Version - 01.00.02.1060
I found the drivers pack for windows 8 and so I could install my PT-BR edition of W81. And reserve 20Gb at the end for another OS.
It's my first UEFI machine and I'm completely lost. There's a lot of options and I can't understand a quarter of that.
On the Tabletrepublic forum someone said that my bios recuse everything except a Windows pendrive. If is true, there's no way to put Android but changing/patching the UEFI.
Android x86 is for desktops right? And the Intel site, can I find Android images there?
Thank you. What i'll do is to check if my bios is identical to yours, because there are effectively numerous options. Then, i could finsh to dump my android partitions and let you play with them.
Honestly, the trick is the OS selection system, which is bring by the EFI bootloader (and certainly a dedicated partition). Once selection is done, another EFI bootloader (windows only) is called.

Dear Xda-team
First of all, let me congratulate you for the excellent job you do.
It’s a wonder to the eyes to see the degree of professionalism behind the visible side of this site.
I hope you can help me with my issue, having in mind my experience that I don’t have any experience yet installing new android firmwares.
I have a Lenco Tab-720 with the following carateristics:
• Android 4.1
• 8gb internal memory
• 512 MB Ram and 1.2GHZ cpu
and when I connect it to my computer, it says Alcatel Android ADB Interface, somewhere inside the driver details.
The tablet itself is nice in size and the screen is good, but it’s awfully slow, even if I have only facebook, a game or two, some Banking apps and outlook app.
My issue is that I can't find no tutorials or how to that explain to me how can I simply change my sluggish android 4.1 to something more fast.
One good thing about this tablet, is that comes with the following option
“Save and Reboot” ----System Upgrade ----Recovery mode – Reboot into the system in Recovery Mode.Can clear the data or system upgrade.
From what I understood when reading other threads, is that that will allow me to skip a custom recovery mod, correct?
Therefore, could you please explain me which are the necessary steps in order to make this tablet run smoother, while improving the overall software experience?
I honestly don't know if the tablet will handle Android 5.0 , but maybe with kitkat it will be tasty enough.
Thank you so much for your time.:good:
Best regards
Tiedefender
Dear members
I contacted Lenco support team and they send me a firmware file:
A13_86VS_M758CHD_1303086.20130329
But , when I open PhoenixSuit 1.08, it says:
Firmware version = v1.2_13011 A13_86VSH_M758CHD.20130329
Android version = 4.1.1
The A13 that I see above has anything to do with other A13 tablets?
If yes, how can I root and upgrade my tablet?
Thanks
Q&A for Intel Android Devices Root / Temp CWM Session
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer.
Before posting, please use the forum search and read through the discussion thread for Intel Android Devices Root / Temp CWM Session. If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.
Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
Will this root method work with ASUS devices?
The thread title (Intel Android Devices Root / Temp CWM Session) suggests this is a generic rooting method for tablets with Intel SoCs. Is there any reason why this shouldn't work with the newer Intel Atom-based Asus tablets such as the MeMO Pad ME176CX? The current and as far as I know, only rooting method, for the ME176X uses an app called RootZenPhone.
RootZenPhone appears to use the same exploit as your script-based root method, but wraps it up in a APK with obfuscated asset names. (Note: I ran clamscan on both the APK and your files, and both tested positive for the exploit). I prefer your method because it has a cleaner, more opensource design. I can basically read what it's going to do, at least up to the point where you run the exploit.

It should work I've tested it on Medfield, Clovertrail, and Baytrail devices, from the Asus fastboot.imgs I've looked at trigger 2 and 3 should work.
the apk you refer to i believe actually uses a function Asus only seems to of built into thier droidboot binary on the Asus when you start droidboot it looks at /factory for a file called .addon and then triggers it Asus uses it for automating things under droidboot I believe and several recoverys have been built to take advantage of it.
As for the exploit the exploit is the the script the binarys are nothing really special just responsible for setting up and starting the recovery session. recovery.trigger is a simple daemon to launch recovery.launcher and recovery.launcher is basically a small subset of cwm recovery its self.

Hello,
in Czech forum where I compiled a native-language short guide how to use your tethered CWM recovery to root Op3n Dott (I see that somebody confirmed that both T2 and T3 triggers work] one Slovak user reported that he was able to use the tool to root Prestigio MultiPad Thunder 7.0i http://www.prestigio.sk/catalogue/M...NDER_7.0i#/product-specs?article=PMT3377_WI_C. I sent him a question concerning which trigger did he use so if he replies I will send more info. Sorry for the Q&A thread, but I got kicked here because of the low post count.

Is the recovery built from source?
Hello, one more question - is the recovery built from source by you, or is it a ready-made recovery from someone else? Because if you have your own tree an are building it from scratch, it might be possible to include the call of my tool used for dumping images (dump_images from merrifield_bin of dell-venue-boot-tools for signed images and possibly a renamed one from zte_gxi_boot_tools for unsigned images) to /sbin/nandroid-md5.sh script and add the tool(s) to /sbin. I know it is not the best solution but at least it would be possible to backup the images if not restore them from CWM.

The actual recovery is built by @vampirefo but i am very interested in adding that feature in and was actually going to ask you about that.
Also have you looked at any of the older update_osip source?
Can you please tell me an easier to understand method.
Because even though i understand what you're talking about, i don't know where to put the files. I understand flashing the session and all but coukd you pleeease explain how to root. Because this the first time i'm rooting a device

Fajfie, thanks for posting. That's awesome. If you used Windows, how did you get Device Manager to identify the Dell Venue 3740? I've downloaded all recommended driver files in this and the previous thread and I can't get Windows to identify the device. When I run launcher.bat I get DEVICE: UNKNOWN.
Any ideas?

i have a Acer Iconia A1830
Problems with the update surpeuser zip
I followed your guide to rooting Acer iconia tab 8 A1-840FHD with intel chip, (Wich is great by the way thanks) and evrything goes to plan until, i get to Install Zip. I get, E:Can't mount /sdcard/ Update-superSu-v2.40(1).zip Installation aborted. I've downloaded the zip from your link by desk top (windows 7) and transferred it over. Also downloaded from the tablet and just used a file manager to move it over to sd. Same msg for each. I used the T3 option. any ideas how to get the zip to install?
Zip copy to folder on your tablet (download,...) and install from recovery install. zip.
Send from my Samsung Galaxy S2 - RR Lollipop v. 5.2.7

Firstly, big thanks to the dev, social-design-concepts for making this thing work on Intel device. Thumb up~
It works wonders with my Acer Iconia A1-830 android 4.4.2.
I used option T1 and it works without any problem.
Thanks again.
P/s: Hope this will work on the latest Intel devices like Asus Zenfone 2 ;p
As said by @Primokorn, my device is very rare and so I am cross posting here for additional help.
Hi,
First of all Device specs :
Device : Quantum QPulse 100s (Not chinese, its middle eastern company)
Processor : Intel Celeron N2805 1.46GHz
RAM : 2GB
OS : Windows 8.1 Pro, Android 4.2.2 (Dual Boot)
So as the title says, i need to root my android, here goes my story...
I tried so many methods to root but was unsuccessful
Here are the points to first notice :
1. Android is a custom built android but build id matches with nexus phone ( idk why )
2.There is NO BOOTLOADER.
More on that :- The tab itself is a mini PC, and i found out it has BIOS, and in the BIOS I found 2 options,
a) EFI BOOT
b) Windows management blah something we are not interested right now.
I found out that android has an EFI boot and we can go to the EFI SHELL but i found no use of that.
3. You CANNOT connect it to a PC using a USB cable.
Ask why ? Because the tab itself is a host system and in no way can you connect a host to another host. Except maybe networking.
Now for the INTERESTING Things WE can USE :
I found a way to mount all the android partitions on the windows os and I can write to those partitions.
Now i did place supersu.apk, su, busybox to the folders they need to be, but in android terminal app it says su permission denied.
Probably some permission problems. I have tried giving chmod in terminal app and moving those files to system/bin later. But didnt work
Also no root apps, such as Kingroot, Towelroot etc are working.
Beware again - You CANNOT use USB using methods.
I need root so i can install gapps, and also because i like root.
So, I need The XDA help
waiting. . . .
3 day bump.. awaiting any useful reply..
I dont want anyone to go deep into the device but it would be useful to tell me how to root a android, whose partition is accessible from another OS ( windows 8.1 )

Why no reply guys, a week and half past the post and i have nothing. Is that the geniuses here dont know how to do this or they didnt read it yet ?
Common, this is in no way "noob friendly" forum says. If you want me to believe in the previous line forever, then don't post anything, otherwise HELP me. Is there no one out there who can solve a simple problem or are they not willing to do anything, I think I have already waited for a month and i think it was plenty time for at least one reply or suggestion. You guys are dissapointing me
I recently aquired 2 Acer CX12 Chromeboxes from my boss which were in storage at work which were just going to be thrown away. Acer Chromebook 14 CB3-431 model - (Intel Celeron N3060, 2GB RAM, 16GB eMMC)
They had linux cinnamon mint on both of them when I got them, but I restored the official ChromeOS onto one of them using the help of MrChromebox scripts etc as its being used by my son (as hes familiar with ChromeOS from school) Thing is unfortunately the playstore is not available on this model having checked Googles listing its shown as "planned" but considering these boxes stop being officially updated June next year I very much doubt Playstore integration will now happen.
I've tried doing various workarounds from the web to get the Playstore on this device but with no luck.
However I have briefly been told by a friend about Brunch ChromeOS? Does anyone know if this would install on these Chromeboxes with Playstore at all ? Or any other alternative options that include the Playstore? Any advice /help appreciated
Just an update - i thought I would just give it a try & see if brunch worked on the chromebox & everything installed fine, with no issues. Although I am no expert on Linux / ChromeOS - what I did was basically turn the chromebox into a "conventional pc" & using MrChromebox UEFI script in linux mint live & then followed the instructions in this video .. cant believe it actually worked, I have tried many suggestions to get the Playstore to no avail. Everything works as it should with no issues at all. Obviously Netflix / Amazon Prime is only viewable in Chrome browser (the app just shows black screen) but apart from that my son is well happy.

Unfortunately as its over a year ago (Im actually selling this Acer Chromebox with brunch OS installed atm on ebay) I cant remember the step by step process i did. I know i used MrChromebox's utility script to essentially turn the chromebox into a standard PC by flashing the UEFI firmware & put linux mint onto it - you can find MrChromebox's link here: https://mrchromebox.tech/#fwscript Then i used both ChromeOS brunch instructions alongside the video stated in above. Sorry, i just cant remember what I did step by step but it certainly wasn't difficult. If i remember you must have an intel based cpu in your chromebox (but that may have changed since last year).
