I've managed to get root on my Surftab ventos 10.1 (cause is already there) after reading the topic by TheSSJ for the others ventos (9.7 - 8)
It's really easy:

Just install from market SuperSU and it will work.

After rooting the tablet I got rid of most of the default app and garbage put in by the vendor, after a backup with titanium.

With terminal emulator I managed to dump the recovery partition
su
dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd3 of=/sdcard/recovery.img

And here is what Recovery builder did to it:

I'm still not sure if it will work, will post how it goes.

OK root Trekstor Surftab Ventos 10.1 v.2 (ST10216-2)

I can confirm that the Root method posted by SCRAX (thanks to him and to TheSSJ!!!!) runs perfectly!!!!.

Before that I needed to:

- Update/upgrade firmware using the file ST10216-v2_FW_pack.zip downloadable from into-trekstor.de/fw/surftab/ site (user: guest - pass: guest) (it seem to be necessary to allow the installation of the RK3066 chipset drivers on the pc, contained in the zip file)

- install a new CWM to enable a former complete backup of the unit, using (thanks to androtab.info site!):
RK_Android_Tool_v1.35 + RK30 Driver (you can find them googleing....)
RK30GENERIC_CWM (files.androtab.info/rockchip/rk3066/20130427/RK30GENERIC_CWM.zip)

And, finally, following the Scrax/TheSSJ method!!!!

Bye everybody! And thanks everybody for the help!

Is this thread still alive? Need help with Root

Not sure if this is still active or not, but a friend has one of these, and I was hoping at least to be able to root it.

Kitkat or Lollipop ROM would be great too if possible! Any other interesting hacks for this?

Any suggestions?
