    Can we please have a root procedure asap as I need to restore 200+ apps using Titanium backup and really don't want to have to install them one by one.

    Besides that, it just gives more freedom and flexibility in how the box can be used.

    Hey Bluesmanuk,

    What version of the linux kernel is the X1 running?

    ("System -> About device" or open up a terminal and type "uname -a")

    Cheers Rob.

    Hmm... guess Towelroot wont work then.

    Have you tried Framaroot or Kingoroot?

    Yes, I've tried half a dozen of the most popular tools and methods and they all fail.

    Framaroot comes back with a message that states 'Your device seems not vulnerable to exploit included in framaroot'

    Lo0oks like we'll have to wait for a System Image to create a insecure boot image then

    Thanks Spring.

    Do you know what the timescale is for this as I am gearing up to do some Youtube reviews this weekend but the screen recorder app that I use requires root?

    If you look at the build.prop to.secure is zero, so it kind of is.

    If you ADB over WiFi you will see it has root.
    So to fully activate it you just need to push su & superuser.all to /system/bin & /system rrspectively, chmod & reboot.

    Thanks.

    I gave that a try but it didn't work.

    New Rooted ROM coming tomorrow though but was interesting to try and crack it.

    here is a package i've knocked together ==> https://copy.com/Wb8QvimTm297cMzi

    and instructions ==>

    Extract zidoox1-su.zip then run the following to install su binary :

    $ adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system
    $ adb shell mount -o rw,remount /
    $ adb push zidoox1-su /tmp/supersu
    $ adb shell
    # . /tmp/supersu/install
