As someone on Dexter said last night - nothing's impossible in technology.

We will find a solution, that's for sure.

Not Bad for 6.5k($120), is it?

U guys should first check if its already unrooted . Cause the funbook come pre unrooted.
If not u can try a software called unroot me. It worked for my Funbook alpha.

3G dongle

Can anybody tell me how to use 3G dongle with funbook infinity?

I have Idea Net setter (Huwai) with Idea card.

 

[creagrox]

there is indeed no software named unrootme (troll alert, @shankermk?)

arun, anything worth sharing?

 

[creagrox]

hey, a big welcome shivam. you will love the people around here.

congrats on buying your first tablet.

i've heard that huawei cards do work on this one(mine is d-link so no cake for me).

but somehow, if we gain root. then most of the things will work in it.(things like bluetooth, gamepads)

all is not lost people, keep your hopes,and smiles up.

Hi ,
Can the developers please mention which all methods have been tried and resulted in failure or bricking of the device. This may help other people to avoid those chances. Also has any one tried installing sparkyroot.apk . infinity has the same config as xtab.

 

[creagrox]

Rooting

Here is the description of different methods i tried on it.

unlockroot: recognizes the device, flashes its name. but after "trying to get shell root permissions", it just returns to normal.

superoneclick: freezes on step 4 "failed to set prot mask"

Sparkyroot: doesnt even starts its process "SU binary not installed"

maybe the long way (the one used to get root permissions on pre-froyo era) through ADB may work here after some modifications, of course, but have no experience using adb ))

did you guys try any other?

 

[vijai2011]

First i would like to say,i dont own this fun book tab...Im a proud owner of galaxy note...
Ok that being said,to gain root all you must need to do is push susperuser.apk to/system/app and its binary "su" to /system/bin to gain root...now you guys need to find a way to do this...if anybody knows to use adb you can try any exploit...sorry if you guys already know it

I havn't tried any yet. Just bought the device yesterday evening and searching the net fo any hit.

 

[vijai2011]

Or if you device runs android 4(ICS) you can try to put a cwm zip containing the required files in your external sd,boot ibto recovery and select apply update from external sdcard and select the zip.It might work in a easy way....Because afaik ics allows to install zips from external sd which are test signed...

Note1:The zip must be named update.zip to work.create the zip then sign it and pls dont edit anything after signing as it may break the signature

Note2:if you dono to enter recovery you can try "adb reboot recovery" command in adb(without quotes)

@ creagrox, thanks for welcome note,

If I can use 3G dongle, definitely, I am interested in rooting.

I think there is no bluetooth in this funbook.

all is done except u can't navigate into recovery as there r no volume keys.
secondly when i enter the command 'adb boot recoverey', it just restarted and not in recovery mode. same happens with the command 'adb boot download'.

I dono how this tabs recovery looks or how to enter recovery in this tab...but usually that command should take you to recovery...maybe their is something like s-off???but their is 90% chance that the above method will work once you are in recovery...
