No computer, no root. At some point an talented individual with too much time on their hands may hack up a tetherless root. Don't hold your breath.

OP you didn't search hard enough. There currently are no one click root setups for Froyo. Do what that thread says and you will have no issues.
I admit defeat, after I posted the question, my coworker found it for me in no time. Kid you not, I had 13 tabs open at one point.

Rooted Lenovo TOOL -Lenovo IdeaPad K1 ONLY!-

If anyone is interested, I built a tool to root the Lenovo K1
I tested it on K1_A301_04_04_111017_US.
This is a stock image with SU installed. However, you could replace the system.img image with any custom image you want to make, if you don't like the stock one.
Warning: This will delete everything on your tablet.
It would be possible to change the Nvflash to only load a rooted boot image, if that's what you wanted. You could just flash in the boot.img which would give you a ADB root, but that's your call and you'll have to change the loader.
Also, if you hook this up and want to use ADB to connect then you will need to build driver definitions and add 0x17EF to the adb_usb.ini. Here are the driver definitions.
[Google.NTx86]
;Lenovo
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install,USB\VID_17EF&PID_740A
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install,USB\VID_17EF&PID_740A&MI_01
[Google.NTamd64]
;Lenovo
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install,USB\VID_17EF&PID_740A
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install,USB\VID_17EF&PID_740A&MI_01
================= Additional information =======================
The instructions are in the readme.pdf inside the zip. Just download the 7zip archive and unzip it to a folder on your Desktop.
Here's the link: http://www.multiupload.com/ASJT84WZ0Q
Alternate download location: http://depositfiles.com/files/6qd3tbtzl
This is for the Ideapad Tablet K1 which is here http://www.lenovo.com/products/us/tablet/ideapad/
Also this is a tool plus a complete set of images (the whole tablet of data all partitions).
argh, I thaught by your title it was for thinkpad... :/
is this for the IDEApad K1 or the thinkpad??
if for ideapad you just made my little sisters Christmas so much better.
definitely change title. this is no tool. it is rooted stock image.
The Ideapad Tablet K1 and here's a link to Lenovo showing the tablet I rooted.

I don't have a thinkpad, if I did I'd root it too. You should be able to download this tool and set of images and tweak it for the thinkpad. It uses a ASUS set of leaked keys, so it might just work for you.
Cheers

Unless you found a new set than the one already circulating, that set of Lenovo leaked keys does not work on the Thinkpad, unfortunately.
On holiday computer(far from my computer) and unable to test this. Though I'm sure someone would have collected the $300 bounty by now if there was a leaked key set out there.

I don't have one so I can't test the thinkpad, so I don't know. It works on the K1 and that's all I can test for now.
Anyway, Merry Christmas to all
I'mgetting this when trying to root:
--------------------------------------------------
ERROR! ADB was unable to remount your device.
Please check that your device is connected,
and that you have the proper drivers installed.
press r to retry, any other to quit.
Hi
I have edited the first post. This is to make it clear what device this is for. Could get confusing as it is in the thinkpad forum. Hope this has not upset anybody.
Take it easy

I'll buy one after Xmas and fiddle around with it. I'm currently working on getting the Xoom FE rooted. I just got the Toshiba Thrive rooted after they locked the boot-loader. So, thanks for the offer but I'll just pick one up.
-- SOAPBOX --
Now, why would any manufacture lockout a device so it cannot be rooted? What are they thinking? This will be the end of Android when Windows 8 appears.
Makers of these tablets need to realize that everyone does NOT want all those applications they load these tablets with.

A quick question can someone create a Lenovo IdeaPad Tablet K1 forum? I don't know if it needs a certain level of demand. I know have some questions that belong in the general section of the Lenovo IdeaPad Tablet K1 forum and not here Sorry I'm not trying to be sarcastic.

The Forum Request thread is closed for the time being since some refuse to follow the rules and are just plain acting like asses, but that would have been the place to request the forum. It will be back up as per the OP. Just keep an eye out for it.

Unfortunately this is true, Forum request thread had been temporary closed. We have had a massive increase in devices being released. Having a forum for all of them would be a tall order.
The forum request thread was set up in good faith, to try to highlight the popular devices so forums could be opened. But as pointed out it quickly went down hill by people demanding things (put politely). I myself have been a target of some trolling on not opening sub-forums. Even though it is totally out of my hands (its down to the site admin) Its a growing issue here on XDA Developers. Hope fully the admin will come to a good solution to the issue.
If anybody notices before me that that thread has been re-opened, please let the good people of this forum aware of it. I am sure others will want to post there interest.
Sorry to the OP for taking this thread off topic, but i wanted to answer that as quickly as possible. I will add this to the read before posting thread to take all other questions. So please no more about this in this thread.

Just got a k1 today ....thank you very much .....do u make roms also ?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515a using XDA App
Works absolutely flawlessly! Thank you!
FIXING Netflex
If you have problems on the K1 getting Netflix to work and you are rooted then do the following from the 'adb shell'
#
# mount -t rfs -o remount,rw system /system
exit
C:\Android>adb push libnvomx.so /system/lib
Now reboot your tablet. Basically you have to replace the /system/lib/libmvomx.so file with the one I've attached. Once you do that, it will get rid of that nasty 12001 error.
Enjoy,

NO root access
Hello,
I ran this tool and it installed successfully, however, I have no root access. There seems to be an issue with Super user. I am a noobie and do not know how to run an update lets say from the SD card. Is anyone else having this issue?

How to root the Kindle (Including 11.3.1)

I had tons of problems rooting my kindle, starting with adb and such. But then I found my own method that worked, I made a video on how to do it.
Watch the video to root!

No offense but rooting the KFHD7 [11.3.1.0] is not really a hard thing to do >.<
After you've installed the adb drivers on your system and ADB gets to recognize your device, it's just about executing the rooting script that is being provided somewhere here in the forum. The swerf-exploit is working like a charm for v11.3.1.0
I don't see where you could have "tons of problems" doing those 2 pretty simple steps, it's just about reading with attention through the related forum topics and you should get this done with ease =)
But as I said, no offense, it that did the job for you, it's fine, just that I wouldn't like to install the additional software you do in your process when I don't really have to :cyclops:
Greetings!
I would not download programs that are from unverified places to install my drivers like in the video. Like the post above says, rooting a Kindle is not hard. If anyone want to root the new 2013 Kindle Fire HD, the link is in my signature. Try that before installing a programs on your computer.
this Kindle is not your "Daddy's Pontiac"!

Lets give the contributor a shot with providing a valuable solution for some other members here who are searching for these solutions to accomplish this task of rooting this puppy.... :good:
When someone shares a nice tip here at XDA, thank him nicely because this Kindle is not your "Daddy's Pontiac"!

All I'm saying is that there are already enough valuable and even easier solutions being provided here in the forums to root the KFHD7 [11.3.1.0]
And as @LinearEquation mentioned, it's not advisable to just install programs with questionable source ^^
Especially if there are working solutions here in the forum which, as I mentioned, just requiere to install ADB and run the root script
TL;DR: Not trying to be ingrate for the provided solution of the op, just saying that working ones already exist :3
But those are just my two cents regarding the topic xD

Now, I waited a lot, holding myselft from replying to such a question in order of not being taken for a "noob killer".
The fact is that your question is far more dumb from being a noob question and people here have all the rights of feeling irritated seeing how much lazy one can be.
You ask me why?
Simply explained. I am at work now, at the coffe machines, smoking a cigarette. I have 15 minutes pause, and in those 15 minutes, look how many links I found related to rooting our phone:
General http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098059
JB Root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2180688
JB Root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230934
ICS Root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818502
General root concepts http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
And last, but first in order of importance, the link to our Question and answers section, where the very first answer is about rooting a p880
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147879
I won't even spell a word about "Putting" anything on the phone. If you need advise on that, then it would probably be better if you don't mess with rooting.
