If you search a little before, you will see that you have here a lot of guides for help you

This sounds very simple, what can go wrong folowing these instructions?

How to, please help?

I can not seem to figure out how to root my phone. I read everything I found here and I can not seem to understand. Excuse the bad English language.
The easiest way is to flash via Odin kernel from CF-ROOT
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Just find the kernel for version that You have and flash it
No I can not find it? This all confuses me?
Probably You have a branded version of the OS (modified by gsm operator)
Did You think update Your OS to stock version (KI3 for example)?
If you just need root and you're not confident with flashing a kernel, [30/OCT][ROOTING/UNROOTING] Xperia 2011 Easy Rooting Toolkit [v1.0](zergRush Exploit) might be your best choice.
However, if you do decide to root by flashing a different kernel, see [GUIDE] And then there was ROOT which is an insecure version of your kernel (XWKDD) for use with SuperOneClick.
So i can update to any kernel? Its ok?
Not sure why you're asking that based on what I wrote, was something unclear?
You can either root using the first link (zergRush exploit) or use the insecure version of your current kernel from the second link along with SuperOneClick. I wouldn't recommend just picking a random kernel.
How about update to stock version? Like KI3? Or something?

Make up your mind.
I still do not know how to do it and I tried everything to read and understand ... There is no bad intentions in this, just do not know what to do.
Then I would suggest you simply walk away and don't attempt to root your phone. Two people here have already spelled out to you exactly what you need to do, and also linked you to a wealth of information. I can't see it getting into much more layman's terms.

Rooting acer iconia a500 Failed

Hello
All my setting are correct and when i load up gingerbreak it just runs when i click root and doesn't do anything is there away to fix this?
Thanks For the help
Did you downgrade?
It won't run on 3.2. Be sure your running anything older than 3.2.
What have you done so far exactly?

I personally used the 2nd method. I don't really like using adb.

Gingerbreak only worked on HC 3.01
Iconia Root for 3.1
And downgrade first before rooting if you're on HC 3.2

You need your serial number from your USB and will have to flash it. That is currently the only to root 3.2x.
Hope this helps,

If you've downgraded to the unstable version, that's where you want to be, root it, install Acer recovery, which you will install CWM with, then install a "pre-rooted" 3.2 or custom 3.2 ROM.
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER FROM WHEREVER YOU'RE GETTING YOUR DIRECTIONS TO DOWNGRADE!

The unstable version i downgraded to is really unstable i mean u cant even type it just pops up errors and closes it down so i'm updating to try again
Just flash it to 3.2.1 and be done with it, why downgrade and waste your time? The instructions are in the readme.pdf I sent you.

Bro, you need to start reading. There is so much documentation in this forum it's rediculous.
I can tell the next thread from you is going to be "Help I bricked my tab".
Like kjy2010 says, read up a bit before you do ANYTHING. That search on the top right? Its your friend

I think if you just read through the forum you'll find your answer. If after you read those and need some help, we'll help. Most of what you need is posted.
If you can't read up then PLEASE for the love of everything, DON'T flash your tab... It gets soooooo annoying reading the threads created saying that someones tab is "bricked" and they can't fix....
So easy a thing to do when you are prepared, hell for everyone when you aren't...

[Q] Help! Need to get back to stock and get ota

I have been searching for awhile now, and just can't seem to find out what I need. I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276227 Method 1, it was a mistake (I think). Now I'm stuck with android 3.01 and without root and/or OTA update available.
So please, link me guide or just tell me what to do. I'm so tired of this mess that I've been working with the whole day.
I want to get back to stock rom and firmware so i can use my warranty if so needed.
thanks, webspirit

You're not "stuck"! Reverting is done in order to get a rootable firmware (3.0.1). Root it, install CWM and you're done - you can install whatever ROM you like. I thought that's quite clear but obviously I have mistaken, so I added #7 and #8.
If tablet currently boots then you can go into settings and "About Tablet" to find firmware versions...Just a thought..

How to root acer iconia a500 with ics???

To start things off I have never rooted anything and am in need of serious help. I have the Acer a500 and I'm running ics 4.0.3 and cannot figure out how to downgrade to hc so I can root. If anybody can give me a guide that is easy, step by step, and dummy proof that would be much appreciated. I've looked everywhere and can't figure this out
TIA
No need to Downgrade your device. You can root with ICS 4.0.3.

Check this link, there is a simple method to root your device. I have not tried it yet, but might work for you. Remember anything went wrong may result in Bricking your Tablet.

Rooting your device so that you can flash custom ROMs. If you don't want to flash custom ROMs then no need to root your device. Just use it.

After Rooting your device, you can use an application named 'Root Check.apk' to check weather your device is rooted or not. This apk is available in market.
prepping successful, but root not.
I keep getting "remote object 'system/bin/su' does not exist
The file "su" isn't created.
how does one fix this so I can root the dang thing.

Help installing custom rom please

I have an A500 that currently has stock android 3.0.1 on it. I've rooted it.
I would like to install OMNIROM 4.4.4
What do I need to do? I can't find any useful instructions. I've read things about unlocked bootloaders ( is mine unlocked)?
Can I please get some simple instructions on what to do.
thanks!
Same problem here. BTW, what's OmniROM, can you give me a link?

You must install skrilax_cz patched boot loader to flash any custom Rom. To do that u need to retrieve yr cpuid and since you're running honeycomb atm, it's easy to do. So do it right now b4 attempting any thing else.
Run "adb devices" from a command prompt and it will give u a number, everything after the "0x" is yr cpuid.
See the guides in my Sig, start with the cpuid guide if anything isn't clear ask there.
