Rooting the tablet allows you to install rooted apps such as SetCPU, which controls the CPU clock speed. You need to know how to use ADB: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...esource-how-use-adb-android-debug-bridge.html Alternately, install DroidExplorer Mirrored from Augendev Wiki: Getting Root Access Use ChainsDD/xinx's Superuser.apk/su from here: [APP] Superuser 2.2.2 - Install fixed (really this time) [2010-07-07] - xda-developers For Eclair / Froyo (Android 2.1 / 2.2) Main Link (Thanks ChainsDD) Mirror (Thanks TDRevolution.com) md5: 795cdef65fb782854721ab91ae7139b7 Unzip the update.zip on to your computer. Run the following from your computer (or from a terminal on your Tablet) adb push ./system/app/Superuser.apk /system/app/ adb push ./system/xbin/su /system/xbin adb shell rm /system/bin/su adb shell ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su adb shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su adb shell reboot
it's an app on the market that does do a batch scrit for rooting Android.... did it like 15 sec with one button tap on my Droid one... supposed to work on most all 2.1 devices.. but i think it utilizes a flaw in android that has to do with toggling the bluetooth widget... since this thing doesn't have that i wonder if it might work? any one heard?
I rooted the GT last night per instructions from xda. Took me all of two minutes to do it! Pretty easy!
Don't use the 'easy' root. I don't know if it is designed for your device. Just do it the proper way. If you need help installing ADB, look here: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...esource-how-use-adb-android-debug-bridge.html There's also guide on Augen wikispaces ADB is very useful, and you should learn to use it
this is the tablet i'm looking into. looks alot easier than rooting the incredible considering i am familiar with adb shell
Rooted and installed clockwork recovery... Bring on the overclocking.... anyone actualy know of any roms that can be flashed as of yet?
HMMMMM... rooted my Gentouch the other evening and had access to shell comand in the terminal.... I did the "su" command to make sure i really had root and it gae me the "#" as expected... BUT i tried last night hjsut for giggles (confiriming because if you have root you should be able to do most of the commands to for the market fix from the terminal, amended of course) ... it gave me an error that it couldn't access and an error code of 1074
