I did not have any success. I downloaded SuperOneClick ver 1.9.1 and followed the instructions step by step. rageagainstthecage is no longer an option in the latest SuperOneClick. I found an old version on 1.6.5, but my anti-virus software said it had a virus and erased it. I was unable to successfully complete this process. I got the message it will now ADB reset and say waiting for device and never went on. Yes, I had USB debugging turn on and every 20 minutes unplugged the USB again. I eventually turned off USB debugging and had no good results. Any updated suggestions?

Will

ditto, could not get past the 'waiting for device' stage...

Worked fine for me, you need to follow the instructions. I had to dissable my antivirus, then tell it to ignore the file. YOUR ANTI VIRUS IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT IT IT MAKING THE BEST GUESS..... search the file it warned you about and if it is a legitimate problem, you will see it. I had to unplug the USB 1 time and reconnect it, but it worked fine....

Dave Reap

worked fine ..it got stuck as predicted but after unplugging and reconnecting it all went on and I got the superuser icon in the aps..

Edoe

Doesn't work here, with neither 1.7 and latest 2.1.1 versions. Viewpad says "USB debugging connected", SuperOneClick says "Killing ADB Server .. Ok ... Starting ADB Server .. Ok .. Waiting for device - and keeps this status forever, also after de-reconnecting USB.

I rooted mine with Gingerbreak. Yes, I know it's a Froyo device, but Gingerbreak did the job direct on the device. Easy and painless. Just install and run Gingerbreak, run it and reboot. It's been a few weeks now, no problems. Once it's rooted, use Link2SD to free up internal memory and turn this hopelessly cramped device into a very usable little tablet. Close to 200 apps installed and no more low memory warnings. The other must have app is Titanium backup.
