[Q] K1 root files (megaupload) - Thinkpad Tablet General

Since Megaupload.com was seized by the feds the files for the windows one click root (sort of) are not available. I'm sure this is a problem for a lot of custom roms and hacks. I was wondering if anyone had a copy of the files linked from this post they can reupload. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397974
Thanks!

If you're just looking to root your device, I'd recommend either CWM based root install or the root tool. They both work well and have continuing support from their devs.
If you must have the files, they've been reuploaded at the rootzwiki version of that thread (post 10).

CIFSManager

Hi all,
i'm so keen to get cifsmanager working on the 10.1v, has anyone managed to get it going as yet?
I think you need a working cifs.ko. its not availiable yet. I dont now if this files are galaxy tab specific or if you can use the files from other honeycomp tablets.

i managed to find a xoom zip file for rooting, it had the files in there, but I couldn't get them into the system modules directory. Is there a way to install them or must I root my device again? Appreciate the info.

In most case you will need ,I guess, root to be able to load cifs module. Besides cifsmanager from the market, I used another app named mount manager which give you easier parameter setting options for mounting. Again it asks root first..and compatible cifs module

thanx man, will give it a try
i found this, but unsuccessfully been able to get the .ko file into the kernel....
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...-fi-root-now-available-sans-bricking-feature/
whats the best way to get the .ko file into the system/module/lib/ directory, can I just go in via fastboot? I'm a bit unclear, I dont really want to root again and have everything reset again, but if I have to, I will, just want to make sure theres not another way...thanx for responses
there is a cifs module released in a very first coutom rom img in the forum. you may want to give it a try.
Sent from my SHW-M110S using XDA App

Looks like SuperCurio just released the source and has built a custom kernel already with cifs.ko integrated. located in the developer thread

Netflix on Thrive

Now that we have Root, can someone get Netflix to work on the Thrive?
I know that the Transformer has a hack (Some System file replacement) that let the netflix work on it.
Can we get something like that on the Thrive?
You can actually use that hack... If you are talking about the .zip you flash in recovery... I did it last night and have had no issues.
netflix works on all tabs now I think, there's a apk floating around.

With or without root?
I say you need to share this apk with us so we can find out.
Netflix does work on this tab with root and the hack. Prior to root though it was not working with just installing the .apk as confirmed here: thriveforums.org/forum/toshiba-thrive-apps/1145-app-working-netflix-honeycomb.html. Sorry I don't have enough posts yet to allow me to use working links, so you can just cut and paste.

Nope, it doesn't work on a stock Thrive, or some other tablets on 3.1 or 3.0. If you're rooted, you can get around it.

exe and zip files to use netflix
Sorry, I'm a newbie & I don't get a lot of the terminology here... I downloaded an exe file and a zip file that were supposed to help me get Netflix to work. But, I can't seem to open the files. It tells me there's no known associated file type. What do I do to get net flix to work (in layman's terms)?

I don't know what files you downloaded, but to get the netflix app to work, you should have downloaded a .zip file from the asus transformer section, which you flash from the clockwork custom recovery.

Did you copy the zip from /cache - and check it out?
A patch file (eg: market.p)? Or the full apk? Does it touch anything else? What build is listed in Settings > About ?
Just unrooted - reverted to pure stock - updated to 55D - rerooted - rebuilt my framework - yadda yadda - on Sunday. Hope I don't need to go through all that again..
how do copy it and view the files? it's downloaded, i just haven't installed it
i haven't rooted yet so i don't have all the options of root file explorer at the momment.
Just got this as well, not sure what it changed.

Install a File Manager if you dont already have one and check /cache.
Since you aren't rooted you may not be able to see it. Check anyway. If you can, use the file manager to copy it to your sdcard and please upload it for us.

No root.. no poop trying to view /cache

That's what we'd like to know. If you're rooted, copy the .zip file from /cache to a handy location or your PC and explore inside the zip.
The update is first downloaded to /cache. A long name with HTK75D somewhere and ending in .zip.
Is there a /patch folder in the zip? All the files in that branch are patched by the updater. The files must be the latest stock version to get patched.
Is there a /system and/or /recovery folder in the zip? All the files in those branches get copied - and older ones on the Xoom are overwritten.
Drill down the /META-INF branch all the way. You'll find "updater-script". This is the command file which guides the whole update process - and tells us everything it is doing.
If there is a bootloader.bin file in the zip's root - we'll be flashed a new bootloader - which could break custom kernels and usually generates some apprehension (guilty until proven innocent).

I've never checked, but for those who aren't rooted, the filename might be logged. Could anyone who recently downloaded the update (but hasn't installed/rebooted yet) check LogCat to see if the filename is there? It should look something like this:
############.signed-tervigon-HTK75D-from-HTK55D.########
(pound signs represent hexadecimal digits)
If it's there, then this might help others manually download the update from the OTA site:
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/motorola_tervigon/<update package filename>
(I think )
Thanks!
i got the update to my rooted 3g xoom w/ custom rom. i looked at the zip and it does indeed have boot stuffz. so im not going to install it. if anyone wants a copy my email is my username @ gmail. i dont have an upload site to send it to, email if you're interested.

S'all right. 55s a benign update - we're still not sure what it fixed (or broke). If you are still stock - though rooted - use Stachre's update method in the dev section. Then you'll be ready for 75.
yeah 55 was the update from a week ago, google is dropping another one on us.
Chipster0-I sent you an email, I'd be interested in taking a look if you wouldn't mind sending a copy my way.
damn, radi0chik has it, not Chipster0, just emailed the wrong person.
Would be awesome if someone could post up the new market and maps apks.

If you are using a custom rom it's already rooted so no need for this
The rom mentioned is banned on xda
See dev thread for roms & read the first post to find out if it's suitable for you

No its not - you are downloading the wrong file from dev-host
Click the Download Now button not the Download button
The download button is an advert which is an exe file (obviously exe is not for Android)

I did. Obviously an exe file is not for Android (duh..), in fact I downloaded it with a Windows PC... the exe file is a downloader, and it actually downloaded the right file, which is Multi-Root-Installer_Final.zip, but it came with a virus and a lot of crapware (malware/adware). Then you can call it ADVERT or whatever you want, but you still get a virus and a lot of crap.

Tried all this on a stock Galaxy Y GT-S5360. I've chosen SuperSU, but I got Superuser instead (which I already had from a previous try, failed). Then I tried to unroot, but nothing happened, I still have Superuser installed and phone rooted.

hi... im jhan a want to ask how to flash multi root installer on my galaxy y? thanks so...
im new here..
It looks awesome and the script starts fine but when it goes to actually do something, it does not change anything and says that the operation was successful.
After the reboot not a thing was changed.
I am using a GT-S5360 galaxy y that I had rooted using a keruk package, I then unrooted it to update the firmware and now wanted to reroot it with superSU using your installer.
Shame it does not work.
Any ideas?

nice, i hope someone can make it compatible with Y

The signature reflects the specific models I purchased and the amount of ram/rom they had. As such it appears accurate to me.
it's 16 GB and 32 GB, if it was MB you wouldn't even install anything

The short answer, and it's not intended to be ugly, is that if you have to ask it's not a file you should be installing.
It's easier to get it from the system updater....this is primarily intended for folks doing rom work or want to extract the patches to see what might be applied to the other models. It could be sideloaded via twrp for the specific firmware/model listed if they needed to for a particular reason.

It died on verifying system because I don't have that Google bloat installed. Oh well.
Quick question. I've flashed .bin files via odin, what do I do here?
It's simply a renamed zip. Change .bin to .zip and you can open it.
@purple.epod and others....I'm uploading an unrooted system image with boot (we need the kernel to match the system) to mega and will post the url when it completes tomorrow sometime. That file can be used to flash via twrp to the latest version and skip all the interim steps. Keep an eye out for it.
