Are you sure there was an SD in the device? I think z4root requires an SD...

Anyway, could you try to use this tool then? Make sure usb-debugging is on, and run the batch file (Windows-only).

If on Linux, please execute the batch adb commands manually with android-sdk installed.

Thanks & good luck!

Yes i have a clean (except tfor the z4root.apk file) 16gb SD card in it.

I have tried SuperOneClick and Universal Androot as well.  Both without luck.

Has anyone had any luck figuring out how to run a larger system partition? I've been playing with the current cm9 source and an andypad system.img is coming out at about 160mb, which is a bit too much to fit without deleting things.

I think the partition sizes are in the bootloader. You might want to check mtd sizes inside of it & hex edit? Keep in mind that a corrupt bootloader will brick your device.
I'm not sure about this though...

Hi peeps,

I've been doing some searching and it seems this guy "wendal" knows his way around these Chinese tablets,

This shows how to compile the kernel from AndyPad which is actually nice of them to release: http://wendal.net/350.html (translate it)

He's got lots more on his blog, but there's also this: http://www.slatedroi...29xxt760p71-et/

I don't know if that helps anybody trying to get anything to work with R/W systems etc.
