Gday My Lovely Little Lemon Drops!
Just got my new Nook Tablet after an array of issues ive managed to get it delivered to where i'm working... Now this is no easy feat, as im living in Dahab, Egypt.
So i have a question for all of you...
We have currently a few ways to root the nook, but the two main ways that stick out in my head are...
Albertwertz - SD Root
or
Indirect (standard root)
I'm unsure of which is the preferred method of rooting... I mean, which is bug free, fastest and generally 'better'.
I hope you can help out a lone Australian...

Standard root is just root. There aren't really any kind of 'bugs' that come from gaining superuser access. As well as the fact that it's like a 2 click thing with very little other interaction needed. It does exactly what it should and it does it perfectly.
So, they are both exactly the same...?
All it comes down to is which is the easiest root!?
With the SD root, does the data stay on the sd card? are there any problems that can come from either root!?
From what I gather, the sdcard root by Albert is just a convenience of already having all of the needed files, plus some extra added goodies all in 1 place for ease of use. It still uses the same rooting methods. Both are using Indirect's Nook&Zergy. Which is a permanent root (permanent until you revert back to stock via aclaim.zip)
Hi,
I am looking purchase LG Realm LS620 during blackfriday. Is it possible to root this phone? Please help me with links...
THANK YOU!
Yeah I Used Towel Root it worked just fine then make sure to install SuperSU & Busy Box also search some thing in the play store to fix the writing issue to the SD card after you get root heres a link to the apk for towel root https://towelroot.com/tr.apk :good::good::good:
Yeah towel root works fine, idk if theres any custom recover for it tho, been looking since i got it, ive tried using xposed framework, but its not the same as using cm roms
yeah i have yet to find a custom recovery or any development for that matter but im sure hopefully soon someone will do something with this thing.
Towelroot worked perfect! Thanks
Would just like a custom recovery, I as well have not found one.
I have bricked my LG ls620, any chance of asking someone to rip /system/app for me, or perhaps the entire stock firmware?
Writing issue to the SD Card after using Towel Root with LS620?
Thanks for the info. I should be getting an LS620 today. I would like to disable the activation wizard and I understand the way to do this is to:
1) root phone
2) install free version of titanium backup
3) uninstall LGSetupWizard 4.3.019
Regarding the rooting portion, you mention "search some thing in the play store to fix the writing issue to the SD card after you get root" . I am not sure what this means can you let me know what issues are related to writing to the SD card on this device after rooting with Towel root and what application and process is needed to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Do you have a copy of your stock rom? Or and update zip i can install from the sd card to re write the entire system?
Yes
Towleroot works perfect!
Even unrooted on newer versions of Android you can't write to the external SD in less you root after that es3 will be able to but I'd you want other apps to you need to use
a app such as SDfix: Kitkat writable micro sd, which I used on my LG Realm, hope this helped
Sent from my LGLS620 using XDA Free mobile app
Yes, it is very possible
I'm probably posting this in the wrong spot, if so I'm sorry. Been awhile since I've been here and hard to navigate on my cell.
I recently acquired a Rand McNally TND T80 tablet. It's a special tablet for commercial drivers that had specific gps software. Truth be told this thing is crippled, but I think I can fix some issues if I can root It. Where should I start?
Its running 4.4.2
Build KOT49H.20150401 VIEW
QUAD CORE A31S
Any advice on where to start or is there a universal root that might work? Any advice would help
Anyone?
I was wondering the same thing myself!
kingo rooted worked for me
How did you get kingo root to work? I tried kingo and towelroot. Towelroot and kingo apps fail, and on the kingo pc option I cannot get it recognice the device as connected, thanks.
King Root worked for my 7 inch tablet, just be sure to install and run SuperSU Me to remove the bloatware that comes with king root. Also be cautious about screwing with things on this tablet, if you somehow break the gps app, you'll be stuck with an overpriced $50 tablet
What software they use on tablet?
Can you make full backup with titanium?
I'm having the same problem! And have the same GPS tablet. Did someone figure something out?????? I'm running android 5.1.1
i tried kingoroot and only get to 76%. i need to be able to install google play store and service.
Hi
Try this latest version of kingroot tutorial

Packing software
Be nice if we can get someone up to date to package this software up so can be transferred to a galaxy tablet. That would go along way in solving the Crap hardware it's on now. I would but I'm buried up to my eyes with getting a new house.
YES! I'd love to be able to put it on my Asus Tablet! Anyone able to root and make a backup?
Unfortunately the maps are locked on the devices hardware. I managed to root it with Kingo and backed up maps on sd and all Rand system data with titanium. I restored rand system data on my Samsung tab 4 and transferred the maps on it as well. When running the Truck GPS application, I receive a licencing error and application force closes out. I'm afraid this is not possible.

any info about rooting methods ?
Kingroot, towelroot?
Xperia Z root (kinguser) app dont work?
Post z telefonu
Neither Towelroot or Kingroot work. Kingo have suggested their app *may* work, but I'm not sure how secure that app is, so haven't tried it. I badly need to root this phone, so I can partition the sd card and use Links2SD. As it stands, I have about 600mb of my "8gb" free, after installing a few apps. I'd like to zap most of the Google apps, and some of the other preinstalled software. Without root, this phone is next to useless if you want to install many, or large, apps.
Im waiting for a root method that works too.
Anyone knows something? :good:

Before root, I think we must first unlock the bootloader and for now there is no possibility

I think unlocking bootloader just allows custom roms to be installed, was a question I asked coz I'm a bit new to this I'm also waiting for root method,
yeah :highfive: and I also think that when you unlock bootloader on your device, it needs to be rooted first
correct me if Im wrong :good:
but hopefully, there will be good news about rooting this coming few days :silly:
From what I've been told and if I'm understanding it right unlocking bootloader and rooting are completely separate, so you should be able achieve either without the need for the other, I'm not sure if this would apply to all device brands but from what I've read seems to be the trend on sony devices, assuming I've interpreted it correctly
so much for that mate all we want now is to have a proper root access for the xperia m4 aqua device
Is anybody working on it at least ?
m4 Aqua - low memory space
This telephone is totally disaster without root access to extend memory with SD card.
I don’t have any recommendation for this telephone for advanced users.
Relax , this phone is available only recently. Allow time for developers to find the solution.
Let me clarify some thing about root and bootloader unlock. Yes we need root to fix the free space problem on the 8GB version using for example links2sd application and memory card. Root can be achieved by two very different ways:
1. By unlocking the bootloader and booting custom kernel with disabled security or recovery which allow supersu to be installed and root achieved. I expect soon m4 aqua to be added to the list of devices which support bootloader unlock (i wrote to sony developers and they told me so) which will allow us to proceed this way. One important consideration here - some phones bought from certain carriers are locked and do not allow bootloader unlock at all. This can be checked by dialing *#*#7378423#*#* - service menu will appear. Go to service info->configuration and check the rooting status. If it says bootloader unlock allowed: yes you are lucky. If it says no you will not be able to unlock the bootloader at all.
2. Using security vulnerability in the current sony firmware allowing installation of supersu enabling root. Up to date no such vulnerability is found. If and when such will be found we can only guess.
About the storage problem - we have one more hope and it is android M (not 5.1 but the next one). It will allow sdcard to be formatted special way and directly added to the internal storage. This way if you put 32GB card and use this functionality of android M your internal storage will increase automatically from 8GB to 40GB. I hope that m4 aqua will get android M eventually but this is not likely to happen before november/december or even later.
