It is possible if you don't do it right. However, if you follow the instructions, you should be fine!

I have 2.3.4 Firmware.
This link should help. Since you have 2.3.4 you probably have to downgrade but check in the instructions just to make sure. Follow the instructions very carefully and you should be ok. Good luck http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2

What version of Android is your tablet running? I can try and recommend a root procedure based on what version of Android your running.

I would recommend trying either this root procedure (As suggested by ArikaSalaf) or this root procedure and seeing if either of these work for you. Let me know if you still have questions.

For Bin4ry Root Tool try this link. And if you use the other procedure make sure you follow the instructions step by step, if you follow it step by step and read everything carefully you'll be ok :good:.

What you can try is re-downloading the file and when Norton complains it's a virus (False positive) click on the notification that comes up which should bring up Norton giving you information about why it deleted the file. Then when the information comes up there should be a restore deleted file option which should then allow you to use the root tool.

[Q] Root Sony Xperia Z Tablet - Android 4.3

Hi all,
I have Sony Xperia Z Tablet which I want to gain root access for.
Device details:
Model number: SGP311
16GB
Android 4.3
Build Number: 10.4.B.0.577
Not sure if relevant, but the tablet was bought in USA.
I'm pretty much a newbe here, so I would like, if possible, to get a link for a simple tutorial how to root my device.
10'x!
If only there was a search button...

Hi Felimenta97,
Thanks for your reply.
I have seen the post you've linked here before I've posted my question (I definitely know how to use the search option ) but its seemed somewhat complicated/Indirect way compare to the simple ways of rooting I'm used to from my 2 other devices (SGS3, Nexus 4)
Is there any simpler/straightforward way?
Thanks in advance!

Nope. There is no current exploit in 4.3 Sony firmware. So, you either unlock your bootloader, or do that process.
Wait till 4.4!
If I was you, I'd wait till KitKat upgrade comes out! after that I'd root my tablet

Why?
What about Kingo App?
You think it might do the work?

Because You'd lose the root if an incoming update comes

Isn't that almost always the case with updates?
Anyway, has anyone tried to root this tablet on 4.3 with Kingo App or VROOT?
10'x all for your help!

I tried with VROOT, but seems like there's no update yet. Was researching about 4.3 root methods, there a few, most of them you have to go back to 4.2 and then upgrade, but a direct root, no, I haven't found one yet :good:
Is there any simple way to root this device?

I can't root my Phone.

Hey Guys, first off, sorry for my bad english. I don't know if the Thread is right here, if not, then please move it.
So i got a new Phone, the Wiko Lenny. Because i wanted to have more Fun, i tried to root it.
I tried it with Kingo Root, KingRoot, Root Genius and much more.
The Programs always say it's rooted, but if i try to use a App that requires Root, it tells me that my Phone isnt rooted.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Can you guys help me?

Do you remove the sim card when the rooting process?and do you have lock screen security
Also install the latest version of Kingo Root
Sometimes this factor effect the rooting process

You welcome
As of 14/10/2015 "Wiko Lenny 2" is not root-able with any of the methods available online. Should i wait for updates?
I was able to do "fastboot eom unlock", but could not proceed further.
