[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
But I like to Odin to DI18 and then let it OTA.
[Epic 4G General] epicslam:
thanks i just like one update, why do di18 then do all the others to ec05?

I cant want it for the times when i need to go stock and see sprint for glass separation or something.... I also would like to know what Samsung and sprint will replace the epic 4g with.... perhaps the epic 3d?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Then the megaupload link I posted is straight stock for Odin.

Do you BONSAI?
[Epic 4G General] thomasskull666:
Most likely another Epic, and it's the Evo 3D :-)
[Epic 4G General] jrdatrackstar:
I would like to Odin back to stick EC05 through ODIN also, but haven't found a guide for files provided. I have the .tar file and other files i think, but I'm afraid of tryin to use the wrong files. Can anyone post or point to where I can findout how to properly odin to COMPLETE STOCK EC05 (because all the complete packages are only for ROOT)?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Use the megaupload link I posted and this Odin. You put your phone in download mode (power on holding 1 key) uncheck f.reset box in Odin, put the victory_8g.pit file in pit box and EC05 file downloaded in PDA box, then connect USB cable to phone and a COM box should appear in Odin, hit start.

thank you for the file, but that is with ClockworkMod. I'm looking for COMPLETE STOCK.
[Epic 4G General] blu9987:
It goes straight from DI18 -> EC05 it doesnt do incriments...
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
there wasnt a stock odin ec05 released, which means if you find one it was made by someone not with sprint or samsung, which means its not COMPLETELY stock.. so if you want completely stock, odin back and ota..

well, I guess I needed a rooted version anyway for the keyboard patch so thank you :)
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
So anyone brave enough to try the EC05 tar ball I found on Megaupload listed a few posts back to see what it is? It was in a magazine post from the middle of March. Let's see if it is stock or not.

Do you BONSAI?
[Epic 4G General] skeeterslint:
That is probably one of the android central made odin tars for ec05. At this time we still don't have a real stock tar to use to go back to stock.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yes, you are correct. I just read the whole article and it is indeed prerooted and from Android Central.
[Epic 4G General] Wildheathen0341:
I feel you on that. I'm just not so sure that the GS2 will be carried on Sprint. I really would rather not have some kinda variant of the GS2.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
A little birdy landed in ACS's birdhouse recently and left a piece of tasty nectar behind.

What I mean is, we've got an EC05 TAR for you. :) To keep that little birdy from being brutally murdered, I've repacked it - so it's not a .md5, but rest assured... it is the 100% stock, Samsung-Sprint EC05 TAR. It's uploading as we speak.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] deathsonic18:
Hey Guys I got a HTC Desire and I am trying to root it using the unrevoked method.

I found this tut.

(I can't put it here because of the spam filter but it is from droidforums by a person called enlightened)

Now, I did EVERYTHING it said,and the HBOOT drivers are installed correctly(The text HBOOT changed to HBOOT USB PLUG) and everything, when I come to root it, the unrevoked is telling me waiting for device, so I plug my phone it and wait and wait and wait and nothing :S (USB debugging is ON and it is on charge only)

on the tut. it said when I plug the Phone in normal mode it should come up "Android for ADB" inside the Device Manger, but I only get "ADB" :S, I think that is the problem mainly.

If anyone can please help it will be very much appreciated.

Thanks in Advance for all your help.

Best Regards :)

(and Guys I don't know if I put this thread under the right Section of Site, if I didn't I'm really sorry and please move it in the correct Section, Thank you ^^)

Rooting a device is never difficult, especially known Android versions. I can't imagine a non-rootable Android device.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErwinP:
The HTC Wildfire has recieved an OTA froyo update in the end of december, and at the moment of speaking only temporary root is possible.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EleCtrOx666:
Bootloader must have been updated and then the exploit must have been fixed(normal HTC procedure).

So yes, this device is rooted, 'temporary' root = Android exploit. 'Permanent' root= bootloader exploit.

Rooting is Android-wise, making it 'permanent root' is saying you changed the kernel to make system partition r/w, so bootloader-wise(changing kernel require bootloader to be unlocked, though there are exceptions).

Oke wow, thank you for this clarification! Pretty new to android, and never looked at it that way. Good that there are people like you who are willing to (re)explain al this ;-)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
can someone verify the procedure for getting back to a completely stock phone from clockwork mod and root?

i'm assuming this method....

use nvflash to get back to stock recovery...

nvflash --bct 1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR0DM_300MHz_final_emmc_x8.bct --bl fastboot.bin --download 5 part5.img

or, is there an easier way for newbs(no offense) to revert to stock recovery?

use super one click to unroot.

volume down and power to do a factory reset.

i just want to clarify for anyone wanting to do so.

alternatively, could nvflash be used to flash the LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0_AP.bin file? there are 2 files in the zip. i'm assuming the larger one would be flashed? so...

nvflash --bct 1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR0DM_300MHz_final_emmc_x8.bct --bl fastboot.bin --LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0_AP.bin

and if this method works,would it revert to the stock recovery?

would that be correct?

someone please make any and all corrections. thanks.

also, before returning for an exchange, would a format of the internal memory be recommended? i would think so. don't want lg or tmo find clockwork folders etc. on there. or any other shady stuff you might have.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sryan1983:
I, too, would like to know the answer for this. I downloaded the stock firmware and see the smaller and larger .bin files. Would we need to install both? Can anyone confirm the

nvflash --bct 1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR0DM_300MHz_final_emmc _x8.bct --bl fastboot.bin --LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0_AP.bin

or the smaller .bin file of

nvflash --bct 1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR0DM_300MHz_final_emmc _x8.bct --bl fastboot.bin --LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0_CP.bin

is the correct command to restore to factory settings? Are there any other files (other than nvflash) that is needed?

My only concern at this point is reading posts where people have tried to Factory Data Reset and get stuck in boot loop. I'm almost scared to do a reset at this point. I'm not an android genius, yet, I can follow instructions and I'm not a complete dummy. Thanks in advance to any of the geniuses that can help/confirm.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nodrogkam:
The super oneclick does the job for unrooting. but i dont think the restore option restores system apk u've removed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I format every device I send back to the carrier or manufacturer. Doesn't it make sense to format any type of disk that has personal information on it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
every time i try to flash the bin file, i get this....

C:\nvflash>nvflash --bct 1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR0DM_300MHz_final_emmc_x8.b

ct --bl fastboot.bin --LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0_AP.bin

Nvflash started

unknown command: --LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0_AP.bin

so....this is why i'm asking anyone with nvflash knowledge to elaborate. does the zip with the 2 bin files get flashed through recovery? do the bin files need to be renamed?

i unroot my phone with superoneclick the same way i rooted before it was easy
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crawler9:
If you've flashed a custom ROM, here's what you can do:

Use CWM recovery to restore the stock rooted nandroid from the dev section.

Wipe data and cache

Use one click recovery flasher (or nvflash if you're comfortable with it) to flash stock recovery

Boot up and use SuperOneClick to unroot.

Technically, it'll also work if you are using the stock ROM, but no real need to go through all that if you are already stock rooted.

mb, double post.... forget I had already posted LOL
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bstapley:
So after you go through the process stated above and unroot using SuperOneClick...will it delete all "root" associated apk's? AKA superuser and any evidence of your phone being rooted? My concern is that SuperOneClick will not delete all the apk files associated with having been rooted, and once you have unrooted the phone, you have no way of deleting the files within the system folder. Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CaliLove310:
I'm not able to do this. I flashed the rooted stock restore but the superoneclick hangs on waiting for device and then freezes (Not responding). I can't try through recovery since I already flashed the stock recovery using NVflash
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crawler9:
Sorry I haven't checked the g2x forums since I got rid of mine. If you still haven't remedied your situation, I have two possible solutions. One, make sure adb debugging is enabled. Then try again. If that doesn't work, you can use Gingerbreak to unroot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crawler9:
Yes it removes all evidence.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tidewaterns:
Everytime I try and unroot my G2x, it says that superuser is not installed when it is already installed. I even uninstalled and reinstalled it and still it says when it is trying to remove superuser that it is not there? Any thoughts? Also what would be an easy way to tell if this phone is or is not rooted?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
This type of issue usually never happens by itself. What have you done since it was last ok?

Is it a new problem?

Have you recently flashed any themes etc or installed / updated any apps etc?

Are you restoring any apps, system apps, system settingd, data etc using titanium etc? If you are, download apps fresh, and restore data ONLY.

Check in the app "spare parts", under battery history, partial wake,.... anything abnormal?

To make sure you wipe all partitions (this will not wipe sdcard), try the flashable tool "full wipe" found in xda. Version 1.3 for cwm 3.xxx or 1.2 for cwm 2.xxx.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmakmal:
Just used the fullwipe 1.2 and flashed ultimate Droid. But no differenc. Spare parts also doesn't show any abnormal readings in partial wake. Any other suggestions.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Without you answering the first questions I asked, I don't have a clear picture of your situation.

Also, flash Rom, reboot at least once, no themes or backups etc....nothing. Put phone into airplane mode, no WiFi, no market update, no data restoration etc., if around 1mA, it is not the ROM. The ROM may also take a little time to 'bed-in'.

Edit: current widget only for monitoring purposes, no other download apps, etc.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmakmal:
This type of issue usually never happens by itself. What have you done since it was last ok?

Installed WP7 Launcher, was running perfectly until one day it just started draining like mad. Even when it is in SLEEP or AIRPLANE mode, the bottom of the phone remains warm.

Is it a new problem?

Yes.

Have you recently flashed any themes etc or installed / updated any apps etc?

First time i encountered the problem, i just flashed ROMs(Coredroid, UltimateDroid, MIUI) Downloaded 1 theme for MIUI, but this was AFTER the battery problem started. Updated facebook to 1.5.3, but went back to 1.5.2

Are you restoring any apps, system apps, system settingd, data etc using titanium etc? If you are, download apps fresh, and restore data ONLY.

I restored APP only, and the rest was clean.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Full wipe. Factory reset. Flash ROM. Airplane mode. Do not install anything! Check current drain, with current widget (nothing else installed, restored, etc. Do not restore system settings, nothing.. .then we'll go from there. You need a process of elimination.

Edit: prior that, if using setCPU, is the governor on performance, if it is, make sure its not. Others have forgotten about it after benchmarking?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmakmal:
did that 1 hour ago, doesnt seem to be going well. the reading is still around 200mAh. with currentwidget and airplane mode. no setcpu
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
................ have you tried just leaving the battery out for a while?

What about checking usb debugging is still enabled?

Reboot phone, let phone screen off for 10 mins, In Spare Parts, check battery history, since boot, anything abnormal in other usage , CPU usage.?
[HTC Inspire 4G] baconissweet:
Hello, I was wandering what the difference was between the kernel and rom?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
The ROM is what you see...the kernel is what makes it happen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ragnarokx:
All the system files written on your internal memory constitute your ROM. Your kernel is what controls your hardware - it's the software to hardware link.

Sent by a little green robot
[HTC Inspire 4G] baconissweet:
Ok, so in choosing a set up for good battery life, its going to be the kernel that manages that, not the rom?

So is phone performance dependent on the rom or kernel? Or do both contribute to system performance?
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Exactly. The Rom is android, kernel is linux.(kinda)

The Rom will change system level stuff- apps, framework tweaks, etc. Not a lot of speed/battery savings stuff will come from a rom. All the major speed tweaks/battery tweaks are gonna come from the kernel

(overclock/undervolt/various optimizations/memory tweaks/etc)
[HTC Inspire 4G] RogerPodacter:
the kernel is what interacts with the low level hardware parts, the full ROM is the android framework layer on top and all the other goodies. for example the battery driver is part of the kernel, graphics part of the kernel, etc.
[Droid X General] b.st0ne:
Hi i just recently bought a motorola droid x. It had 2.1 android on it. So i uploaded the 2.2 spl file thorugh rsdlite. I just found out the bootloader version is 12.03. Now i tried flashing 2.1 and 2.2 both. after it says manually restart the phone. i restart it and it gets stuck on motorola screen. i tried clearing cache and factory reset it keeps getting stuck at the motorola screen. can somone please help me out here :/. Please help asap
[Droid X General] jsvanham:
Not sure about the bootloader as 12.03 . When I had 2.1 the bootloader was 30.01, then it changed as updates for 2.2 and finally 2.2.1 . Now the bootloader is 30.04 .

Do a little more research before flashing this, but the newest official built for a SBF file is 2.3.340. You can find it by google. This will change your bootloader to 30.04 and bring you up to date.

Good luck.
[Droid X General] pabent:
What OS are you using?
[Droid X General] skennelly:
+1 on the bootloader. That is an odd one, unless that phone didn't originate in the U.S. I think the chinese x had a bootloader of 80.something.
