I have added root (su & SuperSU free application) to the stock Nexus 10 JOP40C image (2012/11/10).

To be flashed on a Google Nexus 10 with bootloader unlocked.
From fastboot mode, flash with:

Code:

fastboot -w update Nexus10-image-mantaray-jop40c-rooted.zip

You don't really need to flash all the partitions for root

You could also just replace boot.img with one that has changed default.prop values to allow for rooted/debuggable adb... and then install SuperSU with cwm-recovery... no need to re-flash the entire system just to root it.

Attached is my modified boot.img for jop40c
SuperSU is located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

This is the method I used to root my Nexus 10.

I also modified cwm-recovery 6.0.1.6 so that it doesn't reboot after 20 seconds: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34256732

Take a look at My Backup, does a great job backing up apps and data and no root access needed.

Thanks, I have backed up my apps, but then how do you get them off the device? I cant see any obvious folders when I plug into my PC.

Sorry I'm used to Root and titanium backup!

You don't need to transfer it off the device it backs them up to the partition that acts as the "SD card" on the tablet. Then after you wipe your tablet from unlocking bootloader, etc. reinstall the My Backup app and then select the restore option and then the backup you made. Hope this clears things up for you .

Does this affect any infinite loop boot issues or anything like that? Clean free? Can we use stock recovery for this?

Does this mean I have to unlock the boot loader and with this command that's mentioned above I rooted then? Nothing more to do? No Cwm or anything else?

Thanks for this. Exactly what I needed after my brand new Nexus 10 got stuck on loading screen after unlocking. I can kill two birds with one stone using this.

How would I install CWM recovery after using this. Currently have it installed but can't sideload Supersu or mount my device to flash it from recovery. I'm thinking this is my best bet.


update. it worked, except i dot have touch cwm recovery
