Well, unfortunately that's all I received via “adb pull system name“. :confused:
Code:
adb shell
cd /system
tar -c * > /sdcard/systemdump.tar
exit
adb pull /sdcard/systemdump.tar
Unfortunately this way does not upgrade boot, droidboot/fastboot, recovery, esp.
I created scripts and stuff to manually run the update on the device and patch all flashable images for later manual flashing with the phone tool.
Just working out the kinks of the post. The process can be adapted for other devices.

Does anyone know how to get rid of "Security HD" on the 1380F?
After every reboot it is back again, even though I made sure I deleted the APK, ODEX and corresponding data folders.

Yep, I guess that one worked out much better...

When I used the old, but rooted ROM, I simply uninstalled it via Titanium Backup.
Pew pew pew --> Dead and gone...

Glad pulling /system worked out.

For me, it's weird. I removed the app with Titanium, I also made sure via command line that it's gone, and on next reboot -> poof, it's there again.
If I freeze it and reboot, it's unfrozen.
Absolutely no idea where the heck this crapware is hidden and how/why it comes back.
I removed it and created an empty file with the same name and permissions.
Reboot, bang the app is back.

I searched all mountpoints and all partitions for any .apk files that might be it, but no luck at all so far.

I was asking you because I can not find the fold rom without root (830LC) , as he said that first we should install over the old firmware without root...

Yes. I flashed those images from the rar package that bodivas provided. They already included the latest update. All worked fine again for me.

I know, but I skipped that step. In the same post there is a link to rar package Stock Rooted_YT2-830LC_USR_S000095_1412191502_WW21_ROW which contains three img-files. I took the other needed files from an earlier 830LC image and flashed. Sorry I can't post links because of my low post count.

Btw. Do you get some error message when the flashing fails?

yeah I'm getting an error 'cannot remove/cache/fastboot.tmp during installation of rooted rom

Ok, downloaded..
Put here your (partitions number) screen from dev/block/platform/intel/by-label
This from 830L:
View attachment 3083805
I don't have access to that Intel folder, without root rights. :(
“Permission denied“, wether by using Root Explorer, Total Commander or Terminal Emulator.


Something else: is beside me, anybody experiencing random freezes, when the tablet is in deep sleep state?
I've got to hard reset it, to restart it... :/
No difference between the old, but rooted software, nor the latest non-rooted OTA...

dev/block/platform/8086..../by-name ??
p.s. in upload..

@subworx
What do you use to repack system?
Also I have not found where it "resurrects" this HD Security. I looked into the ramdisk boot, recovery, droidboot and no trace.It seems that their year integrated into the kernel. For the moment you can only freeze with titanium (license)

Yes, that folder is accessible.

Damn, for some strange kind of reason, I can't attach a picture... 'guess something with the XDA App.

This is the table:

boot
cache
config
data
ESP
factory
fastboot
logs
misc
panic
recovery
reserved
reserved_1
system

Flash your rooted system.img and tell me if it all works:

Download Rooted_system_1380F_USR_S000118_1412151610_WW21

Now that you have the root, you can dump the kernel and recovery, if you need them (but first looks good number of your blocks mmcblk0p3):
Code:
adb shell
su
kernel:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 of=/sdcard/boot.img
recovery:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 of=/sdcard/recovery.img
@McKebapp
your partitions of boot and recovery which numbers have? (mmcblk0p..?)
