Hisense Pulse Root For Dummies by Yellowmann
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 8:43 am
Hello everyone, I had use the original document from http://gtvhacker.com/index.php/Hisense_ ... on_Package but being a newbie, I still had trouble understanding what to do. After I got my first Pulse rooted, some how later it updated and I lost the root But that was OK because I originally got it to play with and than plan on giving it to my parents. They don't know what root is anyway. So I like what I seen from the Pulse and got a second one for myself and rooted it with np using my info. I gather. (BIG Thanks to kermit_01 for all his help) BTW my second unit is over heating so back it goes for another one.
Anyways, here is what your all waiting for..... If there is anything else others wants to add to these steps to clarify or make easier, just add here.
1) Download and Unzip the Android SDK http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#download to your PC ex:(C:\adt-bundle\sdk\platform-tools)
2) Download and Unzip the Pulse Modification Script http://download.gtvhacker.com/file/pulse/pulse_root.zipon the PC to the directory where android sdk was unzip too ex: (C:\adt-bundle\sdk\platform-tools)
3) Follow the Manufacture direction to setup your Pulse but DO NOT UPGRADE
4) On the pulse, go to All Applications, Settings, then Applications. Hit development. Check off "Enable Remote Debugging", a message will pop up saying "your files can be modified", press ok.
Then, go to the option below that, says "Remote Debugger IP", go back, and enter your PC's local IP address, then try to re-connect with adb!
5) On the PC click start than run
Type "CMD" to get into command prompt.
Using DOS command type "cd adt-bundle/sdk/platform-tools"
Now type the follow
adb connect <IP_OF_YOUR_GTV> (enter)
adb root (enter)
adb connect <IP_OF_YOUR_GTV> (enter)
adb push (location_of_pulse_root.sh) tmp/pulse_root.sh /tmp/pulse_root.sh (enter)
adb shell (enter)
In the adb shell prompt, which should currently be displaying a "#" type the follow
cd /tmp (enter)
sh pulse_root.sh (enter)
6) Reboot the device
7) After the reboot follow the steps below to modify Chrome's User Agent.
Open Chrome on the Pulse
Click the Menu button (Between Web and FN)
Choose Settings
Choose Advanced Settings
Click on "Under the Hood" in the left panel
Scroll down to the User Agent section and choose "Custom User Agent"
copy and paste this string
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) AppleWebKit/537.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/24.0.1309.0 Safari/537.17"
to the custom user agent area and hit ok and reboot.
8. You're finished, restart the device and enjoy Fox/NBC/CBS/Hulu/Etc.
To remove the update file that might have been downloaded to your Pulse
adb in (adb shell), and type: cd /cache; rm *.zip
Or install root browser navigate to cache and erase the zip file.
NOTE:
The script disables updates by renaming otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.old it can be located using a root browser at /system/etc/security -- if your says .old at the end updates have been disabled. You can also side load a program like autoruns and go to google services framework and then deselect the one that says update.systemserviceupdate$receiver to disable them, but if the script finishes without error you should see the file renamed.
To verify you have root you should see SuperSU installed under your apps. Open that and it should ask you to update the binary. If all that goes off without a hitch you have root. If you want you also could sideload an app like root checker.
