hey i wonder what did you guys use the root? I'm using the brk method but encounter some problem (adb not found)

did you enable usb debug mode ?

have you got the adb files and service started on your computer ?

did you restart the computer after installing asus suite ?

1)usb debug mode is enabled as you can see on the attachment

2)everything is up and running

3)restarted countless time


Added on August 21, 2011, 7:02 pmbtw can someone explain to me how to make sure the adb is working?
Step 2. Verify that you have adb running properly.
Since adb.exe is included in the download, you really don't need the sdk or adb from elsewhere.
2a. connect your tf via USB to your PC after installing the driver and other apps from step 1.
2b. Open Command prompt on your pc (win key+R) and open (and extract) Tf_rootkit_31 (link at bottom of post).
2c. Navigate to /tf_rootkit_31/root_app/ folder from the downloaded and extracted file, drag "adb.exe file to the open command prompt window.
(it should read something like C:\....\tf_rootkit_31\adb.exe)
2d. After the "adb.exe" press space bar and type "devices" (w/o quotes ofcourse) press enter.
If it says "List of Devices attached" and under that a 15 mixed numbers and letters (serial number) followed by device then adb is working!

If NOT, look at the stickies or search on google on getting adb to work on your OS.

thanks.

open up command prompt

use 'cd' command to go to the folder where the files (adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll, adbwinusbapi.dll) are

it should look like c:\xxxx\downloads\rootkit_method\adb>

use dir command > make sure you can see the files mentioned above

now type this 'adb remount' (without the quotes)

tell us what it says...

I'm not rooted at the moment so I'm not really sure actually but if honeycomb behaves the same way as Android 2.x OS, if you're just rooted and not on a custom ROM you should be able to update without unrooting but you will most likely lose your root privileges once you update. This is based off my experience after rooting my Nexus One some time back then updating to the latest firmware made me lose my rooting capabilities but no data was lost. However I still strongly advice you backup your data and apps with Titanium Backup before you attempt any update / unrooting process as per "standard procedure" smile.gif

if you have already flashed the unsecure boot.img file of BRK's you are already rooted

adb is just used to install superuser and busybox to the phone

there is a manual way of installing superuser and busybox and chmod the files to be executable.

try restarting your TF

maybe your windows user account no admin rights ?


Added on August 21, 2011, 7:42 pmand asus pc suite needs to be installed, but it does not need to run when you want to use adb > maybe its already using adb, thats why you can launch adb ??

have to copy the busybox file using root explorer to the correct system/bin folder if i am not mistaken

then have to change the file to the executable using chmod XXX

cant remember the exact folder and the exact command... let me google...


Added on August 21, 2011, 8:23 pmthere is one more thing you can try -

1) reboot computer and TF

2) tick usb debug mode

3) run asus sync on the computer

4) connect TF to PC

5) wait for the sync icon on your TF taskbar (where the battery icon is)

6) tap on the icon once and tap again on the popup window

7) TF will try to sync with PC

8) try the adb command now

i uninstalled wallpaper wizard, its always running in background

you need to install some sw to freeze your unused apps

like mynet, i dont use it, i freeze it > freezing is renaming the apps so that android does not see the file with apk extension and does not run it

task killers / app killers make it slow too, it always kills tasks and honeycomb loads it again. its not efficient.

freezing apps better than killing it or uninstalling it.


Added on August 21, 2011, 3:17 pm
mine without the dock, i like it that way.

can recommend me any freeze app that i can try?

settings > application > force close

but i would not recommend that if the app is working fine

honeycomb automatically allocates resources and you dont have to kill anything
