How to Solve the Problem of No Root on Lollipop

[Guest mbalax]

Go to ebay and buy a Hudl2 running Kitkat (you can ask the seller what version it's running, or spot the KK home button in the photos).

Root it using the tethered recovery method.

Reboot and avoid updating now and forever using this method.

Use Titanium or whatever to uninstall Tesco bloatware. Don't worry about the consequences because there won't be any other updates or changes that you'll ever want.

Sell your Lollipop Hudl2 on ebay for roughly the same price as you bought the other one for.

Enjoy your Kitkat rooted Hudl for the rest of yer natural, or until Google moves on so far that nothing is supported any more . . .

If you have already updated your Hudl2 to 5.1 and suffered the fault of the USB/OTG connector failure are you stuffed for ever or is there a fix?

Thanks

No fix (that anyone knows about) apart from the ebay fix :)

From what I've read this loss of function was caused by a software update: or a software update implementation process failure and now that Tesco's economic woes are pressing the Hurl project is D I W?  Nb the Hudl was developed by Archos for Tesco anyone there able to help of are the legal vultures circulating? Great product shame about the management!!!
