Guest vermillions Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) In Fastboot mode from button press,( both volume buttons and power button) I can get pc to recognise Hudl 2 as Intel Android Bootloader Interface from drivers in 'IntelAndroidDrvSetup1.1.5' and the 'Intel Phone Flash Tool v3.1.4.0' shows connected status port 2/0/5. Might this help us advance our long term root objectives. Edited October 19, 2014 by vermillions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PaulOBrien Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 It is a bootloader mode, I can access it using fastboot, but it doesn't do much useful! P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest vermillions Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 I do need to look into the Intel phone flash tool tho... P There is also an 'intel Manufacturing Flash tool' mentioned here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2746748&page=26 which may also be of interest.

Guest etaardvark Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 Well regardless of how I try to run fastboot-windows ( or fastboot from the SDK ), I always receive the error : D:\Temp\Hudl2\adbfastboothudl>fastboot-windows.exe -i 0x1d4d flash system system .hudl2.rooted.20140924.194555.ONLY.r2.img target reported max download size of 1259571882 bytes error: cannot load 'system.hudl2.rooted.20140924.194555.ONLY.r2.img' It doesn't seem to matter where the image file is located, or whether I use the full path to the image. I have checked the permissions on the file, and it's accessible to all users. Tried running as an administrator as well. This hudl2 has had the OTA update applied - don't know if that will make a difference ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest happyharrysco1 Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 just posting to say thanks for your work on this paul, everything went like clockwork on my new hudl2, here's hoping that future findings will allow full custom rom ability B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest James Pearson Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I'm not rooted, but I just got the 9mb OTA update, and it seems to have worked this time around! It's 20141009.191216, I think it's just bug fixes and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest figjamuk12 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Hey all, if any of you have issues with the following error 'device not connected' you need to install the required drivers, I found this when I was trying to get mine to flash and it wouldn't work. I downloaded and ran the driver tool from here (Sorry its pointing to XDA-Devs) but it worked a charm and im now rooted. Thank you Paul for your hard work on this and I look forward to customising this nice little piece of kit further :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PaulOBrien Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 The OTA that has re-appeared is the same OTA that was briefly available the other day.MD5 (hudl2_ota_20140924.194555_v1.1.1rc1--to--20141009.191216_v1.1.2rc1.zip) = a005ebe697f0f59f50036bf33ca125d3I would advise NOT applying this over a rooted system at the moment!P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mark_He Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 The OTA that has re-appeared is the same OTA that was briefly available the other day. I would advise NOT applying this over a rooted system at the moment! P Paul, I haven't yet rooted but may do so in the future. Do you think accepting the OTA will prevent future root?

Guest Bisgsi01 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Hi Paul, I got my Hudl 2 and it got upgraded to 20141009.191216 immediately after startup. Do you have a system image to root this? Or the last system image would just work fine? Can you please help. Thanks, Biswa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lmulli Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Is there no way of rooting using the normal methods as opposed to having to download the entire rom with this device? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
