Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2 for rooting whit gfree .install ROM manger from marked to get custom recovery . After that go to G2 and desire Z Android development and chose a overclock kernel for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=839687.

I found the wiki to be somewhat confusing, try Rooting with Visionary & Gefree for a simplified version.
As for roms and such, it is really in the eye of the beholder. I like CM6.1.1 as it is the least buggy rom I've tried. For kernels you can download preshoots latest froyyo or gingerbread kernels off of Rom Manager. They're not the screaming most up to date ones but they're still close.

HTC One XT (S720t / T-SCDMA) - RUU, Custom ROM, Radio Stack

I have rooted my HTC One XT (S720t) to be at least allowed to do something with my device. China Mobile delivers the device totally locked up and hardly allows any useful software. Successfully installed Google market app but the ROM seems to have a feature to make sure it cannot be used (always crashed right after opening, others have also reported the same).
Unfortunately my company is bound to China Mobile so I was unable to buy a standard S720e if I want to enjoy 3G.
Rooting and and installing custom ROM was quite smooth and easy but it seems that the flashing the Android Revolution HD ROM has messed up my radio stack/baseband (at least within Android; bootloader still states the old correct radio stack).
I never had problems with the radio stack so I am quite new to this topic and have the following questions:
1. Do I have a problem or not?
2. I made a backup before flashing, will this also bring the radio stack back to normal? If yes, could I extract it from the backup and flash it manually via fastboot (device is rooted but S-ON)?
3. If 1 is not possible, can I flash the backup and then somehow dump the radio stack image?
4. Does anyone know where to get the shipped ROM for this device? S720t seems to be a very rare device and I cannot find anything. Have asked HTC but not sure if they will provide it to me to fix my device.
5. Does anyone know how to get this rubbbish China Mobile parallel market out of this phone and run the standard market (that would be already enough for me - I need Skype for my work). Full control for sure is always nicer.
Thanks for any comments...

no one is gonna be developing for the xt here. even though we have the same chipset. You should go to xda.cn, and join one of their QQ 群，to ask for more info on any ports of roms for the XT. good luck bro

Thanks Kluvj, was unaware of that website. As this website probably has more users I also might find some answers here by understanding the background better - that is easier than in Chinese. But I will definitely check it out...

Thanks, could you let me know why it will not work? Are the devices physically so different?
Have installed the ROM and everything looks fine besides the radio stack under Android stated as unknown. Bootloader states still the China Mobile radio stack (any idea how to backup this one so that I can flash back in case it is messed up?).
<Update>: Everything on the device works normally (also Wifi) BUT mobile is completely dead. After using recovery the old system is back but baseband still unknown and mobile network dead. So got myself a tablet for couch surfing now...

Finally managed to find the stock ROM, use the way described in the forum to get back to stock ROM and now everything is working again. Thanks, guys.
Main problem is, that the stock ROM phone is completely useless without apps. None of the apps that I have on my other phone are featured in the Chinese parallel market. No airline apps, no newsreaders, nothing. Just useless cute games and some standard apps and even the market application is in Chinese only.
A mighty phone - and nothing to do with it except listening to music, playing games and chatting. I am wondering how HTC can allow totally crippled phones like the S720t to be marketed. Crippled and no option to break out of the jail. Phone will go back to the shop tomorrow, even my Incredible S beats the S720t easily. This phone is a living brick.

i do have the same problem, could you help me, where you found stock kernel?

Sorry for the late reply, have been travelling...
I have downloaded a ROM from some Chinese filehosting websites (had to register first) and then got the file. Did a google check and cannot find my orginal DL-link anymore. Try to look for variations of ROM_ENDEAVOR_TD_ICS_40_HTCCN_CHS_CMCC_1.zip Can also upload the file somewhere; PM me how and then the phone can be brought back to original status again (check the stickies).
So far found no way to flash custom ROM (did not check for some weeks now). Easy solution to have access to software at least is to unlock the device and install the google app set manually, that will bring up the google market and that already made me happy.

I am in the same boat, i found this : http://bbs.gfan.com/mobile/android-4912638-1-1.html?extra=page%3D1%26amp%3Bfilter%3Dtype%26amp%3Btypeid%3D483
I initially tried to flash ARHD but it would not boot (bad boot.img i think), the ROM above works fine for now.
It is rooted and has Google Play.
If you flashed a wrong boot.img, that rom as the correct boot.img in the zip so you can extract and flash it.
Only downside is that it is slightly older (android 4.0.4, sense 4.0).
I will look for updates later as i just got the phone yesterday i haven't had time to properly look around.

Oh, thanks. That is actually the first custom ROM that I have seen.
Can you confirm that the radio stack is working/compatible?
I have Google Play installed now, just need to download the package and unzip it locally - but I would like to get rid off all this China Mobile rubbish and especially of their own app shop because it interferes with Google Play.
Might try that version later by myself (btw my original phone only came with Android 4.04. and Sense 4.0).

Yes all works fine and all the chinese crap is not there. only a Chinese webbrowser, but you can remove it and install what you want.
just before I installed the Rom I had the OTA which updates sense and the os, ARHD also has the updated software, but hopefully the guy will update the Rom soon .

This I understand but can't we just flash it with a different ROM from a different carrier? say UK ROM?

didnt he say he is running ARHD in the OP?
i didn't know this was released in china
is it confusing with all these different naming and devices for china?

Yes but he mentioned there was a problem with the radio stack/baseband therefore couldn't use his mobile.
From what I understand, the hardware for HTC One X and HTC One XT are pretty much the same. The only difference is the custom OS from each carrier.
So my question is, can I install any 1 of the custom ROMs from here for the One X on the One XT?
Any help would be great.

I think the HTC One XT uses another kind of mobile technology like SCDMA. Therefore, most ROMs here would work, but mobile wouldn't.

From what I understand, SCDMA is the Chinese variant of CDMA, and only works on China Mobile. You would have no luck trying to find a ROM here that supports SCDMA so try going on xda.cn

[ROOT] [GUIDE] (OFFLINE) OTADelusion Online Root for Asus FonePad 7 / K00E / ME372CG

*** OTADelusion is no longer available ***
Use fastboot flash update instead - guide.
Code:
[B]*** Disclaimer[/B]
If you wish to follow the instructions in this post, you agree that -
* Your warranty is void.
* I do not offer any guarantees that this will work or that it won't cause any
bad side effects.
* You alone are responsible for any damages or other issues that may arise
directly or indirectly because of this.
This has undergone basic testing on multiple devices running supported ROMs, but
again, there are no guarantees. Use it at your own risk.
In particular, OTA updates have not been tested on rooted devices.
Introduction
What Is This?
The FonePad 7 has a very secure stock ROM that is not vulnerable to any known exploit. But fortunately for us, Asus introduced their own vulnerability in it, which we can take advantage of. This is a guide that will help you root your FonePad 7 using that vulnerability.
How Does It Work?
Overplayed, Cool-Sounding Version
OTADelusion exploits multiple critical security vulnerabilities in the over-the-air update mechanism employed by the FonePad 7 -
The update delta packages are delivered to the device through an unencrypted medium.
The device can be configured to use any DNS server and it does not verify DNS query responses.
The package verification process relies on an asymmetric key-pair whose private key is compromised.
A man-in-the-middle attack is performed while downloading an OTA update by forcing the device to use a rogue DNS server which directs the device to connect to a rogue web server. This web server serves malicious update packages with forged cryptographic signatures. These update packages are designed to install a permanent backdoor in the device, allowing the user full access to it.
Down-To-Earth Version
Someone at Asus forgot the 'S' in 'HTTPS'
Someone at Asus forgot to replace the test Android signing key with their own
1 + 2 = Pwnage
What Do I Need To Use It?
A FonePad 7 running a supported version of the stock ROM (check the section below for a list of supported versions)
A working Wi-Fi connection (this will NOT work on 2G or 3G)
Supported ROM Versions
Go to Settings -> About tablet and check the "Build number" field
3.2.2 - NOT supported. Upgrade to 3.2.4
3.2.4 - Supported (WW and TW)
5.1.6 - NOT supported. I need volunteers to help me test.
5.2.2 - Supported (WW)
5.2.5 - NOT supported. May be added in the future. Check this thread for updates.

Installation Instructions
Follow these steps -
Read the disclaimer at the top of this post.
Make sure you're connected to a WiFi connection, NOT 2G/3G.
Go to Settings -> About tablet -> System Update and check for updates.
When you see the update prompt, select "NO"
Go to Settings -> Apps -> scroll to the "All" tab -> CMClient
Press the "Force Stop" button
Press the "Clear Data" button
Repeat the above steps with DMClient in the Apps list
Go to Settings -> WiFi -> long press on your network -> Modify Network and follow these steps -
Set IP Settings to "Static"
Note down the values of DNS 1 and DNS 2 somewhere.
Set DNS 1 to <snip>
Make DNS 2 blank
At this point, your Internet connection will stop functioning correctly. This is intended and temporary.
Repeat step 3. If it shows an error, reboot and repeat this step.
Make sure you get an update called "OTADelusion".
Download and install the update.
After reboot, go back to WiFi settings and restore the previous values of DNS 1 and DNS 2.
You now have root. Enjoy! But also be careful - there is currently no way to de-brick this device if you screw up.

Status
Running an update server costs actual money, so I won't be able to keep it running indefinitely. I expect to be able to keep it running through 2014 at least, but there are no guarantees. It can go offline at any time. The address mentioned may also change at times. This post will be updated if that happens. Server taken down because there is now an offline method.
Current Server Status: Offline

Thanks for the hard work man, hope you are able to solve the other versions as well. :good:

Hey, just a thinking. If Asus can update the "update" app, maybe you can too, and then send any updates (and modification) you want, no?
If it's possible, we have a big posibility in here i think

It's certainly possible, but a much cleaner solution would be to get a working recovery. The bootloader is locked, but it looks like it's not encrypted. There may be a way to make it accept a custom recovery.
But we need someone who's willing to take the risk of possible bricking and test the recovery on their device.

I think that it could be a good idea to open one of our devices, to see if there's some JTAG (or thing like that) to have a fully trustable backup option.

after rooting my ME372CG, can it download upgrading package automatically and upgrade to newer version firmware?
thanks.

It hasn't been tested yet. I would suggest you don't, at least until somebody else confirms that it works.
I do suspect that there is some code in the OTA package that triggers a ROM verification in the bootloader, but I'm not sure.
Either way, if somebody's willing to take the risk, let me know. I can make a modified update package that should reduce the risk of bricking.

Hi, Dr. Psycho
Thank you for your quick reply.
I am using 5.2.2 firmware, so need to waiting for next rooting opportunity..
BTW, after rooting, if can't download upgrading package automatically, is there any way to flash the package manually (if i can download it from somewhere)?

The only way is to do what I'm doing with this guide. You'll need to run a fake DNS server and a web server and fool the tablet into downloading your package. If you're on the latest version of the stock ROM, you'll need to either patch the DMClient app or install a self-signed CA certificate (not through Settings, you'll need to copy it to /system).
This thread has a lot of information for those interested, especially in the last ten or so pages: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2514714
EDIT: Just realized you might talking about official updates. Those will be downloadable and installable, but we don't know if it'll work. It might brick your device.
What I wrote above was for custom mods.
This will all become much easier if we get a working recovery.

Yes, I mean official ROM upgrading after rooting. Sorry for the confusing.
I am waiting for Android 4.4, I don't know when Asus can release it for ME372CG. I don't want rooting affect ROM upgrading in the future.
Your answer is quite clear, thanks!

Hello all!!!
Dr. Psycho, I confirm your solution is working!!!!.... Thank you very much... I bought the device today, based on your solution to root the phone... Thank you again...
Theodore

Thanks! working great here

I noticed that some JP (as opposed to WW and TW) FonePad 7 users are trying to use my server to root. The JP version isn't supported yet (I didn't even know it existed). I can add it if someone with the JP version could help me get some values from their device. It'll only take a couple of minutes. Send me a private message if you're interested.
To check if you're using the JP version, go to Settings -> About tablet and check the "Build number" field. It should say "JP" somewhere in the middle.

Botto00 rooted the original Fonepad and made it Flash capable. There are several Flash browsers (Photon, Flashfox, Puffin), but because the Flash stream is redirected it's not a good viewing experience. I was wondering If you had any plans to incorporate Flash in your rooting method? I've already taken advantage of your root and maybe it's too late anyhow.

If I did come up with patches or ROMs, already having root would't be a problem at all. It shouldn't be too hard to make an app that instructs the bootloader to flash a package like DMClient does. Even if it turns out to be difficult, with root access, I can easily hijack the update-checking mechanism with a self-signed CA certificate and a web server, similar to how we're achieving root right now.
I did in fact have plans to make a recovery or at least an app that would act like a minimalistic recovery and let you flash recovery packages. The problem is, I'd need either a test device or a daring volunteer. And time too - I don't have much of that right now.

I quite understand time limitations working on stuff like this - I think everyone appreciates the time and effort you've spent on rooting Fonepad 7.
I followed the procedure in the link. Unfortunately, it doesn't work... maybe that fix is for machines that still support Flash.
Would I dare to volunteer? Hmm... now that I've got root I don't think I would risk it.

I don't blame you. I wouldn't suggest testing unless you really don't care if you brick the tablet.

USB OTG
Hi, i know this is not the right tread to ask but since there is not forum about our tablet i'll ask here. I have a fonemap 7 ME372GC the 4 GB version (witch by the way doesn't appear on Asus page) and i'm not able to use usb OTG. Is this not possible on our tablets or does mine have something wrong? I have 5.22 rom version andoid 4.3. I use an OTG cable witch is working on my HTC One
Thank you for your help

Let's root it again
Hi Dr. Psycho,
I just got a Asus fonepad 7 model: k00E (ME372CG) and I will put some more data about this device:
- Firmware version: 54.2F
- Android version: 4.2.2
- Baseband version: 1338G_1.12.0_0913
- Kernel version : 3.4.34-00006-gc3b491f
[email protected] #1
Fri Sep 13 21:24:31 CST 2013
- Build number: JDQ39.WW_epad-V3.2.1-20120913
000053_201307241030
It seems as this is the older version of the build then 3.2.4 but it is well WW.
Should I upgrade to version 3.2.4 (and can you explain me how to do this but still to avoid ASUS upgrading to even newest version) or may I try to update this "OTADelusion" update directly with this "old" build number following the instructions ?
And is there any risk of bricking my device with rooting following this method as you stated that there is no way to de-brick Asus fonepad 7 yet ?
Or is there any other (older and safer) way to root this older build version except this "OTADelusion" ?
Thanks in advance !
Cheers !

I just picked up this tablet. Should I take all of the OTA updates beore I attempt to root? Based on what I have read, it seems like I should, but I wanted to check before I take the updates. I am currently on JB v4.4.2. Thanks for your help.

It is not required to install all the updates before you root but if you would like to have the latest version then update first. If you plan to install a custom ROM later then no need for updating to the latest version.

Samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 new firmware root
Hello, I have a samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 (P600). I am considering to root it so I can erase all those apps I o not need and that take space and ram. Just so you know, i am a neophite and for this reason still do not know weather to root or not. Thefefore I would need and explanation in plain language. recently a new firmware has been released and i downloaded it. The build number is KOT49H.P600UEUCNK1. Now my concern is if i should wait for a new root file matching my firmware to be developed or if I can proceed with the file already available.
Thank you.

Better idea, identify the apps that you don't want and ...
In application Manager, uninstall the updates and then disable them.

Thanky you for replying bulbous, but unfortunatelly your solutions is not of much help. In fact I was going to do what you told me through rom toolbox lite, but I still need root access. My intention though is to root my device and delate those crappy sMzung apps that i don't need and that only occupy space on my device, which is just 16 gb.
Do you or anybody have a very straightforward answer to what I asked at the beginning?
Thank you

Tablet restarts when trying to install apps
I followed the instructions given, but now when ever I attempt to install an app my tablet will restart itself, which prevents installation.
I'm new to rooting so I'm not sure what to do. Any sort of help will be appreciated.
I should mention I tried to use the autorootp600mj4.tar.md5 to root but when I restarted my device the supersu was there but it said I wasn't rooted, so I used CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.tar.md5 instead and it fixed the problem with supersu, but now I can't install anything please help.

Android 4.4.2
Hey there, I recently picked up a Galaxy Note Tab 2014 Edition and I tried rooting it, but the tablet is updated to the new software.
It is telling me that they can't find an SU Binary.
I would have to manually put one in.
Have you guys had this problem occur before?
If so, what course of action should I take.
I know this thread is a little dated, but if you get back to me that'll be very much appreciated!

Could you please check if you have really the same Firmware I have?:
Android version: 4.4.2
Kernel version:
3.4.39-4357843

I cannot get it working.
I am following the instructions in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-2014/development/root-cf-auto-root-t2905495
and I am using this the file linked there:
CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.zip
The process seems to go fine and I do not see errors, but I have no root privileges and SuperSu is not installed.
If I try to install SuperSU from Google Play, I get an error message saying Google Play has encountered a problem.
Requests for root privileges (for example from Root Checker or SDFix) wait quite some time for a reply and then timeout.
Before that I had tried with the file p600Autoroot.7z linked from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2490805
The installation behaviour looked the same, in that case both RootChecker and SDFix were bailing out immediately with a failure in the request for root privileges.
Which file have you been flashing with Odin?
I have the feeling some step (but not all) of the rooting process are incomplete, probably due to some change in the Kernel.
Any suggestion?
Thanks for the help.

Managed to root P600 with FW P600XXUDOC1
I finally managed:
After having installed with odin
autorootp600mj4.tar.md5
I had to manually install SuperSU-v2.48 from TWRP.
Previous versions of SuperSU did not install, even if there were no errors (also TWRP did not show any error).
Among the many instructions I tried out, the one that worked and gave me the links to the right files is this one (sorry, in German):

Want a LBL Lollipop root method for the Xperia ZL? Keep reading.

Hi all!
I'm happy to say that, thanks to iovyroot, and with a lot of help from zxz0O0, we managed to create a new root tool for the Xperia M2, EagleRootTool, meaning we don't actually need to use Kingroot anymore to root LBL devices under latest Lollipop firmware :victory:
However, since this root binary is compatible with (probably) any kernel built before December 2015, I thought of making the tool compatible with some other devices, like your ZL, since it's actually very similar to my device.
Unfortunately, since this tool's based on some kernel-specific addresses, to make it compatible with other devices like the ZL, I need them from every single variant.
I'm going to take for reference all models and firmware build numbers from XperiFirm.
WHAT YOU NEED:
- An already rooted device in 10.7.A.0.228 (10.7.A.0.222 might be compatible too) (it doesn't matter if it was rooted by Kingroot, or via UBL methods).
- A little of Android general knowledge: Usage of ADB (mainly).
- Patience.
DEVICES:
- C6503
- C6506
- C6502
HOW TO DO IT?:
Just open an ADB prompt and run a shell in it. Then, run the following commands, replacing the *location with storage/sdcard1 if you want to use your SD Card, or with data/media/0 if you want to use the internal memory.
Code:
su
cat /proc/version > /[COLOR="Purple"]*[/COLOR][COLOR="red"]location[/COLOR]/version.txt
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
cat /proc/kallsyms > /[COLOR="Purple"]*[/COLOR][COLOR="red"]location[/COLOR]/kallsyms.txt
(remember to hit enter after each line of the above :silly
Now upload those two files (version.txt & kallsyms.txt) wherever you want, or attach them in your comment, saying which model they're from, and I'll add the required offsets to support your device manually!
________________________
DISCLAIMER: This is NOT a placeholder NOR Spam thread. I just want to help this device users to get them supported in a common Lollipop Xperia rooting toolkit, since this device won't get Marshmallow, and has a compatible kernel. If you, moderator or user, decide to close/report this thread, I may understand it, but think it twice before doing it.

@linuxct, Sorry, I'm a bit late to the party.
Xperia ZL C6502
Lollipop 5.1.1
Build 10.7.A.0.222

I do have an C6506, but unrooted. Did you have any chance integrating these yet?

I can't integrate it - all of the data sections in the kallsyms are missing in the provided symbol table. As you can see, only T and R sections are available, and I've no idea why. Getting it from another device would result in exactly the same problem. I am currently investigating it.

Damn, I wish I could help...
What would be my second best option to root this, Kingroot? Sounds fishy to me...

Just make a PRErooted rom
