rooting t68

Hello
I've tried to root my t68 (booxstore edition) with the latest firmware installed following the procedure as explained here but i could not succeed.
the program always asks me to plug in the device.
obviously it is plugged in, with usb debug active... I've tried with win8 and winXp (with latest android usb drivers installed) but the results are the same.

any suggestions?

thank you

best regards

I also used the Cydia Impactor method which worked flawlessly.

Yes.
There`s something in the new update that makes that method fail.

I tried Cydia Impactor and worked for me.
Easier and quicker...

I've installed the universal usb drivers but no luck. usb debug is on..

As for towelroot v1; i can't find it. I've downloaded towelroot v3 and it didn't work either..
i think i'm going to give up..

Oh dear. No Google love for your search on towel root v1? There's at least one match from XDA itself. Anyway...

HP must've sent you the link by now, if not, I'll send it tonight. Stay tuned...

EDIT: When I search for 'tr1.apk download', the first link is http://forum.xda-developers.com/mad-...click-t2799712, which lists the link https://diegomejia.globat.com/android/towelroot/tr1.apk for towel root v1.

I cannot vouch for the site, or for its contents. Maybe I also downloaded from this link, not too sure now, been a couple of months since.
