May 27, 2016  xda-developers Android Development and Hacking Android General [Guide] Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70 Root, Recovery, Xposed and Others by suhridkhan XDA Developers was founded by developers, for developers. It is now a valuable resource for people who want to make the most of their mobile devices, from customizing the look and feel to adding new.

Sorry about staying 'outta the loop' here but I had to deal with home PC issues. My HP randomly shuts down. Error log says voltage fall off, possibly due the desk collapse.

(It fell over before trying to slide to the floor). I manages to buys a 6mo old Toshiba Satellite C55-B laptop. It's Win10Pro x64 w/ 6GB RAM & 750GB HDD.

Guess what I discovered. W10 does NOT natively have the ability to transfer files from one PC to another. You have to install a third party program like PC Movers. I have limited network, so I'm migrating (by thumb drive) over 7 years worth of files! When it rains at my house, it pours.BTW. Today is the first sunny day in 16 days of rain.and it's Friday the 13th too!

Maybe I shouldn't be playing with computers today! And no.I still haven't replaced my cracked screen. Got the replacement glass.but still chicken! Purchased Tab 2 on Amazon few weeks ago. Finally had a chance yesterday to unbox. Booted it first time and setup with my Google account. Then let it update.

Enabled developer mode and enabled USB debugging. Tried the Kingroot app in Play store. However it didn't work. Went to (4.95 I believe). This version worked great. Then followed using a terminal app. It error-ed out the first time so tried again.

Worked the second time. Updated binaries then rebooted. Next downloaded a free and using that app navigated to the AAL setting and turned it to 'off'. Then rebooted once again for good measure.

Tablet works great and flawless. I did have to replace the lenovo charger that came in the box. It would not charge the tablet past 75%. Found a spare 5v/2a and charged up to 100% in 20 minutes. Also ordered the with magnet in lid and it also works great shutting off display when closed. Very pleased and tablet is wonderful!!!

Thanks to all the users before me with this tablet that put together the great root instructions and various tips and resources for making this tablet even better. Love the screen resolution. For $179, can't beat this tablet.

Xposed probably could allow USSD requests and voice calls (only on the A10-70L, of course), if someone made a module for it. Security-critical apps definitely should complain about root and Xposed, because they can compromise the entire system. If these apps don't complain about cm-su, then that doesn't make cm-su superior, but means the apps are dumb and must be updated to detect it, too.

I just got a new Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70 Root. I thought it was $100 off at $180, but it seems that others have bought it for much less. So much for a corporate discount. I was able to root it with kingroot.

I then tried to replace it with supersu sing the wolfdroid method. I went to look at the apps and kingroot had its uninstall button grayed out. That can be fixed by going to the security settings and changing a few settings.

I was able to uninstall kingroot then. I no longer had root access, and could not run the wolfdroid method. So I reinstalled kingroot. When I first installed kingroot there were some extra options that I chose. I probably made it more difficult to remove it.

I found an app on the playstore rashr that with root access you can flash files. So I flashed custom recovery for twrp.

I was going to try the other method to install supersu and get rid of kingroot. That did not work. Supersu seems to be installed. But when I run the root checker app it shows that /system/bin/suSU is really owned by a package kingroot. If I had the correct file I might be be able to overwrite that in a terminal window but probably not. I was afraid of bricking my tablet so I reinstalled kingroot.

It is going to be there anyway if I 'install' supersu. Perhaps I need to flash supersu somehow or maybe kingroot won't let me do that. I found that the flashtool mentioned did not work under windows 7 or linux ubuntu. I had the generic SAMSUNG USB drivers installed in windows. I upgraded to windows 10. Maybe I will try that.
