Root MANY ANDROID! [Upd: 13.10.2012] Nov 17th 2012, 18:44 Hi, i made a small script which is able to root ICS/JB phones. It uses a remount timing issue in Androids "adb restore" service.  So normally it should work on nearly all ICS/JB devices, for some it won't but the idea may work in a slightly modded version  There is a case for Xperia T and Xperia S,P etc. phones, this phones run ICS but don't have android's native restore with adb, Sony has added a own custom "Backup&Restore" app, the script handles this cases too, just choose the correct option! Download: Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v15: Click Have fun with it and if you like you can donate to me  How-To: 1.) Download attached file. 2.) Extract it using 7zip 3.) Double click the RunMe.bat and follow instructions! Xperia phones = Normal mode Sony Tablet and similar = Special mode Video Tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...6#post33470626 Updates: Updated to v2 windows&linux!
