You’re Welcome Buddy. Do you have any problem? Feel free to ask.
Do you have a link for the adb drivers?
excelent, works … I was looking for working s8-50f root how to for about 1,5 hour and then finally found this … thanks again, hope the tablet is still safe now 😉
hi is it work for lenovo tab S8-50LC
IM AM FROM INDIA
It’s not tested on that device. You can try it but do at your own risk.
I’ve yet to find a device driver package that works asis.
The trick to get the adb driver to install is to edit the .inf file to make the device ids matchup with the ones
shown by the Windows Device manager. For me, for my S8-50 we have:
%Lenovo% = USB_Install, USB\VID_17EF&PID_77D9&REV_FFFF&MI_02
%Lenovo% = USB_Install, USB\VID_17EF&PID_77D9&MI_02
If you have a 64 bit machine be sure to fix these lines under the [….NTamd64] stanza or similar.
hey! i tried this on my lenovo tab s8- 50lc. after running the program my device restarted and nothing changes. its all the same. Is there other way to root this? thanks
Can I root my lenovo s8 in android 5.0.1
Dear Dory
I Upgrade my tablet lenovo tab s8-50lc to Android 5.0.1 (lollipop)
Know i want to root it after that install custom Rom lollipop or any other version
I do all of things in your Instructions, Step by Step
but now it doesn’t work.
do you have any solution for solving this problem.
thanks
What’s happen in the end after you followed all the steps?
Dori, you need to update this webpage. The rooter program you provide here did work with Android 4.x but fails after the latest Lenovo update to Android 5.0.1.
I’m told the S8_50 can still be rooted by forcing it to load a TWRP or similar recovery program – you have to do this via USB from a PC… I haven’t gotten around to trying this yet.
hey dory. thank you so much. this worked like a charm. but I have some issues maybe you can help me with. I bought my lenovo s8-50lc tab from China and some of the apps are in Chinese language. what’s even worse is that I cannot run any google services like play store google play and therefore cannot download anything and use from google play. For this reason I want to flash the custom kitkat firmware on my tab. your thoughts on that. Also I seem to be having a hard time finding ADB driver for lenovo s8-50lc.
Try this universal ADB driver. Click here.
Is this work at lenovo s8-50f 5.0.1? I upgraded firmware and finding root method but can’t find how to root this.
i did everything properly and program work as u said but result is nothing…why… plz help me
