Root CloudMobile Jelly Bean

[Guest davidevinavil]

To get root on your CM once flashed JB rom (leak or official) you have to:

1. keep Vache unsecured boot.img here and CWM here, unzip patched_jb_kernel_v2.zip and place those in the same folder which you will give following command
   
   
2. download Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip and put on SD card
   
   
3. adb reboot bootloader
   
   
4. fastboot -i 0x0502 boot CWM-6.0.1.5_S500.img
   
   
5. once CWM booted, flash Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip and reboot
   
   
6. adb reboot bootloader
   
   
7. fastboot -i 0x0502 boot boot.img
   
   
8. update Superuser by Play store
   
   
9. reboot
   
   
10. Done
    

Doing so, you will not flash unsecure boot because his kernel is keep from older leak and is not up to date,

so if you need to get System R/W permission or update/change Superuser.apk you must repeat step 6 and 7

This will work on locked and unlocked bootloaders

Credit to Vache for his CWM and boot.img

Vache's site is offline.

Do you have a mirror for the files?

Just bought my cloud mobile yesterday and already updated to official JB rom, is this the proper tutorial to root the phone? Cuz pretty much everything else refers to the leaked rom or stock ICS.

It's a EMEA_FR btw.

Hi guys

Same question for me: is it possible to root stock 4.1.2 ORGROD (dual carrier) with the above mentioned method (Vache or http://acercloudmobile.blogspot.ro/p/tool.html) or we can brick our phone?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

OK, tried by myself, used:

http://acercloudmobile.blogspot.ro/p/tool.html

Acer S500 drivers (the ones inside the package above wasn't enough)

Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip

Copied Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip on the uSD

Executed the tool (Acer S500 Tool 0.3), option 3 - BOOT CWM 6.0.1.5

Using CWM installed Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip from uSD

Reboot

S500 JB 4.1.2 stock (ORGROD dual carrier) correctly rooted

I am getting "error: device not found"

In device manager I have "acer fastboot device" and the driver version is 1.10

Is this correct?

[Guest razvankim]

Search on google AdbDriver installer. Hope it fix your.problem

[Guest Chrispynutt]

Nope, once in fastboot adb can't see the s500 :(

[Guest Chrispynutt]

Update, tried multiple ADB drivers, none can see the phone when its in fastboot :(

ADB has nothing to do with fastboot from what i know, when you are in fastboot mode you can you only the fastboot commands

commands:

update <filename> reflash device from update.zip

flashall flash boot + recovery + system

flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition

format <partition> format a flash partition

getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable

boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel

flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it

devices list all connected devices

continue continue with autoboot

reboot reboot device normally

reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader
