How to Flash

We are going to be using Odin in this explanation to flash the stock kernel to your phone.

Downloads

First you are going to want to start by downloading all the needed files onto your computer and then place them onto your Desktop.

Samsung Kies

Odin3-v1.85.zip

SGH-T989-UVKID-Insecure-Root.tar

Process

Once you have everything downloaded and on your desktop, you are going to want to first install kies.

After this is done you should restart your computer for proper driver installation.

Next, extract Odin to a new folder on your Desktop. Leave the tar in the form it is.

Now, open up Odin by double clicking the .exe in the folder you extracted it to.

The most important step is now, you need to put your device into Download/ODIN mode so your computer will recognize it and be able to flash to it. To do this simply turn your phone off completely (or pull the battery). Then you are going to want to use the following button combination to force your device into download mode:

Now ODIN should have recognized your device ( it may take a while for the drivers to complete installation so don't panic the first time).

Lastly, we want to click on the PDA button and then search for the SGH-T989-UVKID-Insecure-Root.tar we download earlier and placed on the Desktop.

If all of the above has taken place you are free to hit the Start button.

Done!

If all has gone well at this point the flash should be proven successful and your phone should reboot like normal.

If so, please feel pressured to give yourself a pat on the back, that was tough! :P

I'm planning on picking up my Galaxy S2 from Telus once it gets released (end of the week I've heard). Will this method work on the Telus version?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sebmw:
I noticed the original 784MB I had dropped to 778MB after flashing is this normal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] treo...not!:
TY

Rooting this way is ridiculously easy, especially for those of us who don't want to muck about with a custom CWR or custom ROM just yet. Basically, all I wanted to do was to have Titanium Backup running and to delete that annoying tethering manager app!

You might want to clarify that you press both Vol+ and Vol- simultaneously then plug in the USB. The other way you mention (Vol+, Vol-, Power) puts the device into recovery not download mode.

Kudos!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bubby323:
Yes it does. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bubby323:
No, once I am able to work with those on Telus to figure certain things out I will also develop there, do not flash anything from this forum though. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bubby323:
Yes, you should notice that the Superuser application is installed upon flashing and a few root binaries are copied over to /system/bin so the drop in size is due to that, and actually occurs with any root method, not just this. :)

Question involving the update.

I'm going to get this phone next week.

From what I see there is an OTA that they will try to push. IF I happen to get one that is already updated, does this root work for the most recent OTA?

I just have to ask because I didn't see anything referencing it. Also, I want to make sure before I attempt.

Well, there was a thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1270232

But it appears the link is down. So, for anyone else that wants it I've edited a stock framework and you can grab it below. What does it do? It is completely stock framework other then the fact that the CRT screen off animation is enabled. Push it to system/framework.

You have to manually reboot after you replace the .apk

I downloaded using the link in the OP. Used Root Explorer to rename the existing APK inside system/framework , then pasted the DLd apk in its place.

Immediately Titanium Backup hit me with an FC, then Market. I rebooted.

When my phone came up all of my sync accounts were gone, including my Market gmail account. Smart Keyboard Pro is gone as the default and Swype is back. Etc.

That'll learn me to Nandroid first.

Can we get one of these for the EK02 rom plx? the new rom doesnt like the old resources.arsc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] &roid:
You can use mine. I did it myself for the EK02 ROM. I did it as soon as I loaded EK02, and it works fine. I have also included an original framework if you want to go back to no CRT.

These must be pushed via ADB or copied to the system folder in root explorer. If you don't know what you're doing, do a clockwork backup first. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nos_20:
I copied this with root explorer to system/framework. It said the file already exists. Overwrite it? I choose yes.

It crashed my phone. When I managed to turn it back on I was stuck in a boot loop. I have sgs2 on 2.3.6.

I had to restore to get phone working again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] &roid:
That framework is from caulkin stock EK02. It won't work on the new EL roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Upload your framework and I can make the quick edit for ya :cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nos_20:
Here it is I copied it straight from the system/framework directory.

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FlowingAway:
What exactly is the edit that gets made to framework-res.apk? I'm using Calkulin's 2.8.1 with an ICS theme flashed as well. Does that mean my framework has been edited due to that particular flash? If so, could I extract my current framework and make the edit myself?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
It's a bool edit in framework-res.

<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool>

I believe that is all the samsung framework requires. I'll have to double check when I do it again. Its been a while. :D

I'll take a look right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FlowingAway:
What's the name of the file and its location that's supposed to be edited?

This requires edits to the powermanagerservice in services.jar. Easier said then done when you're working with smali. [i hate smali]

This might be something I will look into at some point, I just haven't had much interest in the mod myself. adding it smali style instead of simply editing source makes it that much more of a pain.

I recently received a Kuno Tablet. It has the same physical characteristics as the 10.1 except for the lack of a hdmi out. Its running android 2.3.1 with a 1.2ghz processor. I have been trying to find some way to root this tablet for a few days now and have had no luck whatsoever. As far as I know no one else has even attempted to root one of these. Help of any kind would be appreciated and I will do my best to answer any questions. I am considering trying petes root tools or gingerbreak but i have my doubts that this will work. I have tried to put the device into some sort of recovery mode but have had no luck so far with any of the button combinations I tried.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scholbert:
Hi xsurferx,

the Kuno really looks like the Archos 101... the chinese engineers are incredible.

Under the hood there's different hardware working.

The manufacturers website mentions a Rockchip@1.2GHz.

http://mykuno.com/kuno-specs.html

Due to this fact there's nothing in common with the way Archos created the firmware on the A101 and the way you could root this device.

You could try to find out how the firmware looks like on your Kuno... but i guess this is not the right place to discuss these things.

Anyway, good luck!

Any progress on trying to root the Kuno tablet? Superoneclick says that it roots it successfully but Superuser does not get installed. Is there at least a way to flash Gapps onto it? I can't even set up a gmail account unless I use the IMAP settings :(
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsurferx:
super one clicks havent worked for me yet either however, i do work for the high school that i attend on their tablets and anything else they need done, through contact with the company that created the tablets ive learned that the tablet does not have a recovery mode and that the tablets actually have to be imaged like a computer would. So once i get my hands on an image i should be able to modify it to allow root access. If that fails im going to try rooting it through adb and installing superuser that way as well
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dorkyxd:
what shcool has the funds to buy tablets like that?

So you just help them>?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsurferx:
lots of them

Many schools are going to one to one devices to try and help students learn and while they are expensive most of it is payed for by grants and other funds. I do anything they need from pc to mac and android. The tablets will be given out to freshman this coming semester and they want to see just how locked down these are and im assuming that rooting them will be the first step to unlocking them from the cirruculumloft software they are using. They want to see how to unlock them so they can prevent it in the future. Which is where i come in.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsurferx:
Status...

The kuno tablet has a recovery system that can only be accessed by flashing a new firmware to it, however, it is not possible to get this firmware without getting it from the company that made the tablet. So...in order to root the tablet you have to create a custom firmware from scratch for the tablet because the firmware on the tablet was designed in such a way that the android market can not run on it. The company removed the directories and other items the market needs to run. You can not connect the tablet through adb, nor can you install from SD or even access the SD card from inside the firmware the tablets are currently running. In order to root this tablet we would need to create a custom firmware and then flash it onto the tablet. Anyone interested in trying? Also, super one clicks will brick the device, I'm surprised yours still worked after that.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsurferx:

The market will run on the tablet, i was lied to on that one. The tablet connects through adb very easily and most commands work in adb. unfortunately you can not reboot into recovery or the boot loader through adb

So I present to you my personal mash up that I have been using for many months across many roms. It's not flashy and it's not loud.

***The little Google "g" by the signal bars represents the same status of the green signal and data mode on stock.

***The dialer screen cap is there to show the tabs that are used throughout the UI.

***Also added the TW color icons from settings, Cause I'm crazy like that. Also because it looked weird with a color tsm icon and the rest white.

***Increased size of toggles.

What's Incuded (themed): framework-res.apk, Contacts.apk, Mms.apk, Settings.apk, SystemUi.apk

Also included (But NOT Themed): Launcher2.apk, Phone.apk. (I included these so that if someone wants to bounce in between my other theme it won't leave any theme debris behind)

Credits:

thatdudebutch - For the use of a lot of superdark elements.

hitman-dreams - Battery and signal icons (which was a port of ebros by regedy1)

goldenstorm - Various icons and elements.

And I'm sure there is some other images I kanged from someone and can't remember who or what.
