Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Hi I just thought i would try and tell you what ive done in case you wanted to know. I havent succeeded yet :( I followed this guide: http://www.modaco.com/topic/373642-how-to-root-your-hudl-2/?p=2258831 however im not sure why but it doesnt root. Once I started T3 option the cmd run through various checks however on the very bottom for some reason in the cmd window it says: Bootloader partitioning Failed status read failed (too many links ) When I follow EavanC guide the cmd doesnt list my device?
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Hi again Following EavanC guide I get here: "Fastboot-windows -i 0x1d4d flash system system.img" without quotes and hit ENTER However it says no image found in the cmd window. Edited May 30, 2015 by pryddie
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Now seems to be stuck on creating space on the Hudl2 screen. Don't know how long it should take as this has been like this for well over half hour? Edited May 30, 2015 by pryddie

Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 That's the wrong recovery check your path for the recovery zip Hi Robin sorry about all this i downloaded everything in the one folder on my desktop mate
Guest robin0800 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) You should have two folders FB_RecoveryLauncher resources and a launcher.bat the one posted above not the one that comes with the two folders Edited May 30, 2015 by robin0800
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Hi Robin I copied your launcher text into my launcher and saved. Now im back where we were with the pic i sent stuck on creating space...................looks exactly the same mate
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 You should have two folders FB_RecoveryLauncher resources and a launcher.bat the one posted above not the one that comes with the two folders Hi Robin Yes thats correct i have the above, copied your text to my launcher and still where i was earlier? with the android pic i posted creating space
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Yes mate started the launcher as administrator and it's always the same it stops at creating space stage Edited May 30, 2015 by pryddie
Guest robin0800 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Perhaps you are short of space lots of apps lots of games? You may if this is the case have to reset your device Edited May 30, 2015 by robin0800
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Perhaps you are short of space lots of apps lots of games? You may if this is the case have to reset your device Hi Mate no games or videos on it and 4.5gb space on my device
Guest robin0800 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 su zip file damaged download another one?
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Hi Robin Ive done a factory reset and ive downloaded the zip file again and still the same mate
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Im not usually a quitter but i give up now with this, good luck to everyone else
Guest robin0800 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 I think its failing because that is not CMW recovery?
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Hi Robin I'm unsure what you mean really. Thanks for your support I think I've done here I've exhausted my capabilities now I've been on it 2 days now mate
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Hi Robin Oddly enough I've come to put my sky app on and it says when I try to watch sky sports that it is not compatible with a rooted device. I dunno if it's rooted or not lol. It looks the same and the annoying start up music and tesco widgets are still there
Guest EananC Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Hi Robin Oddly enough I've come to put my sky app on and it says when I try to watch sky sports that it is not compatible with a rooted device. I dunno if it's rooted or not lol. It looks the same and the annoying start up music and tesco widgets are still there It will look the same as stock unrooted android even if its rooted. Go to the play store and download SuperSU and root checker. Run SuperSU and then run root checker. See if a root grant window pops up and if your rooted.
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Hi EananC I have installed SuperSu and Root Checker and root checker congratulated me on a rooted device Not sure what I do now lol
Guest hudl2helpthanks Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 Are there any stock images for this device?
Guest pryddie Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 I'm not sure what you mean when you ask are there any stock images on this device?
