I have found a way on how to root this device, look up PDAnet on google play then download pda for your computer/laptop and now you can use kingo. I just rooted about three days ago using this method, I hope I helped somebody who needed help rooting this specific tablet.

 

[DadGuy]

Did you use the pdanet app or the pdanet tablet app from the google play store? I see both.

 

[DadGuy]

I"m still talking about the foneso tho...I"m not sure if that's the same one you are or if you gave up on that and bought an allwinner as a separate device...

 

[DadGuy]

Success! using pdanet and kingo I got root access! Thanks so much!

After following the process " pdanet and kingo", i still can't root my device.
Root failed

 

[BigB0SS]

What device are you using? It can't be Foneso, I rooted about four of those generic tablets using PDANet and Kingo.

It wouldn't root my HP 10 Plus (2210xx)

 

[Mutoidi]

Would not root my HP 10 Plus Tablet either!
Anyone have a solution yet?

 

[LanceW296]

Could you explain what you mean by " download pda for your computer/laptop", Surely apps in Google store do not run on a Windows Computer?

 

[Zebrahh Dube]

There is a windows and a mac version of pdanet made by the company that you download... all you have to do is Google it.

This is a Tethered Root!

Hey guys thanks for pointing me in the right direction with the PdaNet. So simple! I didn't realize that this is only a tethered root, but who cares! I can permanently root it now. Once again thanks alot! BTW, I used PdaNet+. Don't know if it makes a difference but it works. Installed it from the web to my PC (Win 8.1 x64) and connected over USB. This is on an A23P KitKat 4.4.2, 3.4.39 kernel, build # polaris_p860-eng 4.4.2 KVT49L 20141113 test-keys.

Great help for me. Succesfully rooted a softwinner/allwinner V90! Thanks a lot!!!

Neither pdanet nor kingo are any good for me as they won't run on my PC. One must wonder why, in order to administer a Linux system, one is required to be running an MS system?

Does anyone know of any Linux tools that will crack an Allwinner Q8H. Slackware for preference.
