  Oneclick , latest version, script is discussed from here
  
  
  It is rather simple as long as You have the SENSUS CONNECTED TOUCH and a PC (prefer a laptop) which You need to connect to the same network.
  
  How to:
  1. Preparing
  *Download the: cmd-frama-menu-4.zip from the page 1, first post attachments. LINK: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2636951&d=1395149723
  
  2. Follow the instructions
  The instructions are rather simple.
  -Connect your SCT to the same Wifi network as your PC. This wifi network can be your home network or your local hotspot from your phone.
  -Unzip the (cmd-frama-menu-4.zip) and start menu.bat found in the folder "menu"
  - After starting menu.bat on your pc it will ask:
  Code:
  Input {IP Address of Android Device} or USB:
  Type in the IP address of the SCT, can be found when You go to the settings on SCT -> WIFI -> and click on the connected network (starts with 192.-).
  After that the menu look list this: (Now just type in: 1 and wait a bit so it will say complete, then type in 2 and wait a bit until complete and so on, until step 6 when the SCT will restart itself)
  Code:
  1 - Copy Framaroot files and execute.
  2 - Install remount.sh into /system/xbin and remount as writeable.
  3 - Alter /system/build.prop to ro.parrot.install-all=true
  4 - Install Google Framework & Android Market
  5 - Install rewhitelist.sh/setpropex/patch init.parrot.capabilities.sh
  6 - Reboot Android Device
  7 - Install Android Packages from APKs folder.
  8 - Android Debug Bridge Shell
  9 - Save ADB Bugreport to Disk
  R - Input connection information & retry ADB connect.
  Q - Quit
  Run steps 1 through 6 in order to root the SCT.
  Step 7 is optional and will install all APKs you have placed inside the APKs folder in your unzipped menu.zip folder on your pc PC.
  Step 8 is for manual commands or troubleshooting.
  Step 9 is for troubleshooting.
  Step R is only needed when the connection to the SCT seems lost.
  
  3. You should have now a rooted SCT.
  
  4. Installing applications
  I noticed that lots of Apps from Google Play Store can not be downloaded directly to the SCT (because the SCT is not in the available list of the apps) so a easy way is to download the Applications as ".apk" files from the PC (You can find the desired app from: http://www.appsapk.com/ or http://www.androiddrawer.com/ for example).
  Then copy-paste these .apk files(make sure they do not have any spaces in the filenames) to the folder "APKs" found in the downloaded unzipped folder "cmd-frama-menu-4". To install them, run the menu.bat again and once connected with the SCT again run the step 7 to install the applications You copied to the APK folder.
  
  If you want to install apps using the Google Play Store that are larger than 7MB or so, you need to remap the cache directory to the SD card:
  
  Code:

  remount.sh cache-sd

  Then after the app installation has finished, but before you start the app, remap the cache directory to the internal SCT memory:
  
  Code:

  remount.sh cache-og

  
  5. Enable displaying applications while driving (disable safety feature)
  1. Download Android Terminal Emulator from Google Play Store on Your rooted SCT.
  2. Once installed, run Android Terminal Emulator under Applications
  3. touch the screen - the keyboard pops up
  4. Type in "su" press ENTER
  5. It should ask wether You allow Superuser or not, choose the "Allow" option.
  6. Type in "rewhitelist.sh" press ENTER
  7. Type in "reboot" press ENTER
  
  6. Enable Google Maps and Voice Search
  First install google.maps.6.14.4.apk by the method explained above. Then copy libvoicesearch.so to /system/lib and install Voice_Search_2.1.4.apk. These files can be found in Voice_Search_2.1.4.zip.
  Here is an example of how to do this with adb:
  
  Code:

  adb connect [ip of your SCT]
  adb push google.maps.6.14.4.apk /mnt/sdcard
  adb install /mnt/sdcard/google.maps.6.14.4.apk
  adb push libvoicesearch.so /mnt/sdcard
  adb shell su -c 'remount.sh system-rw'
  adb shell su -c 'cp /mnt/sdcard/libvoicesearch.so /system/lib'
  adb shell su -c 'chmod 644 /system/lib/libvoicesearch.so'
  adb push Voice_Search_2.1.4.apk /mnt/sdcard
  adb install /mnt/sdcard/Voice_Search_2.1.4.apk

  Now #reboot# and Google Maps and Voice Search should be working.
  
  
  Now You should be done. Happy downloading and drive safely.

  Actually it was fine (since we are in the root folder), but since I was too lazy, I used your file. I had to correct the "true" to 1.
  I also changed the menu to do this. I removed the set prop option, it's not needed anymore. Setpropex should also work on older versions.
  
  Btw, I did the upgrade manually using adb shell, and did not used the menu.bat.
  So if anyone could test it or double check the menu.bat file, it should be fine. I translated the manual commands back into the menu.bat
  
  My SCT is upgraded and I am able to install apks Let's find out if waze lost of data is fixed. Also adjusting screen dpi is still working. But we now have setpropex so we can override everything
  
  When you finished step 5, you need to reboot in order to be able to install apks.
  
  As allways: no guarantee and at your own risk when using the tools

  Manual instructions and commands:
  
  

  1. Detailed instructions how to get ADB working between your pc and SCT
     1. Download the Android SDK, it contains the nescesary tools like ADB.exe and Monitor.bat (Download page Android SDK)
     2. Install the android SDK
     3. If you are using windows: set the installation path of your SDK\platform-tools\ in your windows environment variables. So, add c:\\SDK\Platform-tools\ to it. (More instructions on this point)
     4. Now connect your SCT to a Wifi network and also connect your laptop/pc to the same wifi network. This network can be your home network, or for example the wifi network you create with your phone wifi-tether function.
     5. Go into the SCT>Settings>Wifi and click on your connection details. Find out the IP adress of your SCT. (example, it would be something like 192.168.43.x if you are using wifi tether from your android phone. )
     6. Now on your pc, open the command line (cmd). Easiest is to click with shift-button hold and with Right-Mouse-Button on the folder where the files reside you want to transfer to the SCT (see instructions further for rooting). After RMB click, choose option: open command line here.
     7. Now type:
        Code:

        adb connect $IPADDRESS

        Replace $IPADRESS with the IP from the previous step.
     8. ADB is now connected and you are ready to type the instructions for rooting.
        
        Code:

        D:\sdk\platform-tools>adb connect 192.168.43.5
        connected to 192.168.43.5:5555

     
     
     
  2. Detailed instructions how to Root SCT
     1. Download the cmd-frama-working.zip from the attachments
        Attachment
     2. Unzip it into a folder (example: d:\sct\ )
     3. Open the commandline in this folder
     4. Connect to adb (see instructions above)
     5. Do the following commands (line by line):
        Usage:
        
        Code:

        adb push libframalib.so /data/local/.
        adb push sploit.jar /data/local/.
        adb shell mkdir /data/local/tmp/dalvik-cache
        adb shell ANDROID_DATA=/data/local/tmp LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/local dalvikvm -cp /data/local/sploit.jar com.alephzain.framaroot.FramaAdbActivity Gimli 0
        [or]
        adb shell ANDROID_DATA=/data/local/tmp LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/local dalvikvm -cp /data/local/sploit.jar com.alephzain.framaroot.FramaActivity Gimli 0

        See post here and thank developer!
     6. Now you are rooted:
        
        Code:

        cmd line frama root by Gekkekkoe
        Credits to alephzain for Framalib
        using Exploit: Gimli choice: 0
        Executing Check
        idx: 0 value: Gimli
        idx: 1 value: Aragorn
        Executing Check Completed
        No such user 'root:root'
        No such user 'root:root'
        Result: 0

     7. Test root by command:
        
        Code:

        adb shell
        su
        id

        On the SCT you will get a screen of SuperSU, asking if shell may have root access privileges. Say yes.
     8. exit the su and shell using
        
        Code:

        exit
        exit

     9. Reboot the SCT
        If you are still within shell, just use
        
        Code:

        reboot

        If you are on command line again, use
        
        Code:

        Adb Reboot

  3. Detailed instructions how to get Google framework and Google Play (market) on the SCT
     1. Download the files for framework and market
        
        Framework
        Market
     2. Push them to your SCT
        
        Code:

        adb shell su root -c 'mount -o remount,rw ubi0:system /system'
        adb push GoogleServicesFramework-2.2.1.apk /data/local/.
        adb push Market-3.3.11.apk /data/local/.
        adb shell

     3. Now install them
        
        Code:

        cp /data/local/*.apk /system/app/.
        chmod 644 /system/app/GoogleServicesFramework-2.2.1.apk
        chmod 644 /system/app/Market-3.3.11.apk
        reboot

     4. After reboot, connect the SCT to internet
     5. Open the google market on your SCT (in the applications drawer)
     6. Log in with your google credentials
     7. Accept terms and conditions
     8. Be sure to stay connected to internet, google market will update itself after some minutes
     9. Connect Adb and force SCT to reboot again.
     10. Open Market/Play and Accept terms and conditions again! (now for the updated versions)
     11. Wait for some time, it will again update itself again.
     12. Open adb, force reboot again
     13. Last time open Play (It should be named Play now, since it is updated, if it is not, wait longer and try previous steps again)
     14. Go into My Apps, update SuperSu
     15. After update, open SuperSu from your app drawer
     16. It will ask to update SuperSu Binary, use Normal Method
     17. Say thanks to Chainfire for the SuperSu
     18. In settings, you can disable the popup that will ask if you want to run an App that is using root. Can be convenient, but also dangerous (apps can use root even without notifying you.)
     
     
  4. Detailed instructions how to installation of other apps
     1. We have to enable installing all apps on SCT. Warning, this means editing the build.prop, which is vital to the system. Typing errors can result in a system that will not boot correctly.
        
        
        More methods apply here, use one which is convenient to you:
     2. Fast method:
        
        Code:

        adb shell
        mount -o remount,rw ubi0:system /system
        sed -i 's/ro.parrot.install.allow-all=false/ro.parrot.install.allow-all=true/' /system/build.prop

     3. Slow method, more control, moderate risk:
        
        Code:

        adb pull /system/build.prop

        edit content and set to true. Content of the file should look like this
        
        Code:

        #TODO Set to false for prod #Package install limitations. Set to false to allow only the install of verified packages 
        ro.parrot.install.allow-all=true

        replace build.prop with proper one.
        
        Code:

        adb shell su root -c 'mount -o remount,rw ubi0:system /system'
        adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

        If above does not work, use method like the google framework.
     4. Third method: install ES file explorer, use the rooting functions of this app to edit build.prop
        Instructions in this post and this post
  5. Detailed instructions how to install APK files
     1. Method 1: Use google play
     2. Method 2: If not available on google play, use a Google Play APK downloader on your pc and install using the
        
        Code:

        ADB install

        or using
        ES Fileexplorer mentioned above
  6. Detailed instructions how to make apps available during driving
     
     All apps are behind a security wall of the SCT. When driving >5km/h, all apps not listed in the whitelist.xml will be disabled. To enable your installed apps you have to edit the whitelist.xml
     Warning: it is a safety feature you are disabling now, it is your own responsability when using apps during driving
     
     1. 
        Slow method:
     2. Get the whitelist.xml from your SCT
        
        
        Code:

        adb pull /system/etc/whitelist.xml

     3. Find out which packages are installed and have to be listed there:
        
        Code:

        adb shell
        pm list packages

        Other method, look to the url of google play on your pc, see bold part: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop
     4. List the packages by adding new lines with the package names
     5. Edit the whitelist.xml using a smart text editor. Preferably use Notepad++
     6. Copy the whitelist back to SCT
        
        
        Code:

        adb push whitelist.xml /data/local
        adb shell
        su
        mount -o remount,rw ubi0:system /system
        cp /data/local/whitelist.xml /system/etc
        reboot

        
        
        
        Scripted method:
     7. Download script
