[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkoch820:
Hi!

Can I root and change my recovery to CWM, and than again change back to stock recovery without having to reinstall and setup everything? I would like to remove a few system apps, which only use battery and ram, but this time without keeping the custom recovery and root. I need the stock recovery to get the official 4.0 :o through the air. Isn't there a 1-click root method, which roots, and restores everything after, like z4root?

Also if I use Adfree when rooted, and than unroot, will I stay "adfree"? I understand I won't be able to update the host file after that
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
I wouldn't worry. Within a couple hours of the OTA going out someone will have it available to download from here. Then you can just flash it with CWM like any other ROM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
You do NOT need stock recovery to receive and install a ota. Anybody that says so is wrong and frankly stupid.

But if you delete any system apps the ota will fail. You could back them up and put them back to install the official ota.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkoch820:
Wow, thanks. But why will it fail with removed sys apps? Obviously i deleted the unnecessary apps.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jason_25:
After searching around , it seems there are several ways to compile Busybox.

Codesourcery toolchain direct compile method

http://mobisocial.stanford.edu/news/2011/02/compile-busybox-on-android-os/

http://omappedia.org/wiki/Android_Installing_Busybox_Command_Line_Tools

Running make gives:

gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory

What exact folder belongs in the path?

What exact statement belongs for the cross compiler prefix in make menuconfig?

Source integration method

https://github.com/Gnurou/busybox-android

This method wants you to include the files with the android source and rebuild.

Is there a way to instead compile this directly?

Scripted NDK compile method

http://matrixrewriter.com/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=Building+BusyBox+binaries+for+Android

This method goes well until near the end of the script when the script returns:

/usr/include/string.h.274: error: expected ')' before '!=' token

I am completely lost after searching for this error.

Which of these three methods, if any, is best? Is there another easier way?

Hello,

Could someone suggest me a stable ROM that everything work properly.... Is my sister's phone.... please cpi;d someone point me a good ROM. it would be nice if has Greek language and the gps working...i have bought Navigon 4.0 and wanna work to her cell. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adslee:
If you want stability and functionality, nothing beats stock rom. For stable and fast daily use, I would recommend stock JVT with Semaphore kernal and lag fix. For performance and battery life, I would recommend Cyanogen Mod 7.1.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hasan10:
The following setup has done wonders for me so far:

- Stock 2.3.5 (XXJVT, ODEX)

- Dark Core kernel JVT 4.1

- Adernaline Shot

- Governer set to On-Demand

Rock stable, incredibly fast, no lag or stutters what so ever. Forget about upgrading your phone for at least another year (XDA ROCKS!)

EDIT: Forgot to mention the modem. Use UGJL2 Modem for best GPS and signal.

A few questions:

What is "S-on"? I see it a lot but don't know what that is?

And lastly, I would like to fool proof my flyer potentially from future bricking. What should I install/do (general steps...don't go into detail as I'll figure that out). I just upgraded from a nook colour and "mastered" hacking that device.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
No way to guarantee you will not brick. But relatively hard to do, especially if you read instructions. As to s off here is some asnwers from the hc s off thread by globatron

Q: What does S-OFF give me that HTC unlock doesn't?

A: Full read/write access to all useful partitions.

Q: What else does S-OFF give me that HTC unlock doesn't?

A: The ability to flash custom roms without flashing boot images from booted android.

Q: What else does S-OFF give me that HTC unlock doesn't?

A: The ability to have custom software without having to waive your warranty.

Q: What else does S-OFF give me that HTC unlock doesn't?

A: The ability to install any regional ROMS without a goldcard.

Q: What else does S-OFF give me that HTC unlock doesn't?

A: Greedy much? What else do you want?

Q: Can I return to S-ON for warranty purposes?

A: Yes, a procedure will be in post 3 when I get to it, if you ask in the thread I will not answer this question.

Q: Why do I have to S-OFF in GB before going to HC?

A: Because that's where the exploit works, once we have access to hboot in any version we can patch hboots for later releases.

Hi

How do you change the file manager?

I'm using MiniCM7Prolite V21 which comes with File Manager by Rhythem Software. I prefer ASTRO file manager and want to have that intergrated. Hate having 2 apps doing the same thing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] msahin061:
You can use Root Explorer for changing system files. But i suggest that, dont delete original custom rom files.

Install also ASTRO

I have a few questions...

You don't have to be rooted to install apps right? All I do is check mark authroize apps in settings and then just put the apk on my kindle and install? Or do I have to email it to my kindle email? Do all apps from android market work?

If you don't need root access for 3rd party apps why cant google apps be installed? I guess I'm confused on why anyone should root a kindle right now? Since its so new? What are the advantages of a rooted kindle?

Last question, is there any way to save that Amazon prime thing if you do root? I have that fee month trial right now.

For the couple extra apps I could get from the Google Market, and to put a real launcher on it. I do not like the home screen on the Fire. The carousel is just a big mess of "stuff". I do like all the app screens, I just think the home is a fail.

Don't freak out amazon, I've been buying more stuff then ever. Even with out your front end.

[Kindle Fire General] antagonizt:

FYI you can keep using the amazon apps (video, mp3, etc..) while rooted if you just rename the "su" binary to something else. I renamed mine to "super" and can still watch amazon vod.

[Kindle Fire General] Xdpker06:
Thanks! For apps like google Maps, is there anyway to get location services working? like figuring out your location thru wifi like the ipod touch.

*edit* actually that seems to have broken my root. Superuser no longers gives permission to Root Explorer so I can't even change it back to su. How do I fix this?
[Kindle Fire General] antagonizt:
You'll have to use adb and do it via command line.

$ adb -d shell
$ super
# /system/xbin/busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
# mv /system/bin/super /system/bin/su
# exit
$ exit
$ adb -d reboot

I guess the Superuser app looks for the "su" binary as well? Maybe there is a way to tell it you've renamed "su"... a setting called path to su or some such thing
[Kindle Fire General] Xdpker06:
Thanks. Do you also know how to the location thingy working on google maps?
[Kindle Fire General] antagonizt:
Sorry, I don't know what's wrong with maps on the Kindle. It should use info about the AP you are connected to and be able to give an approximate location if the AP mac is in Google's DB.
[Kindle Fire General] killyy:
Kindle Fire has no GPS, so locating yourself is not possible. I use mapquest for pinpointing my location and it works great. Mapquest uses OpenStreatMap for finding your location, but searching for directions is done only through wifi.

[Kindle Fire General] rmcvey:
For Android Market, other google apps can be installed without root.

You need to sideload MapQuest app to your kindle fire. There is an option there which says "Find Me" and gives your location. Practically works like Google latitude without GPS.

Android Market
[Kindle Fire General] GSMinCT:
First and foremost, the jailbreak for the iPhone 4S still isn't out, and something needed to get hacked, so the KF was the easiest victim.

NYTimes app was the other driving factor. Looks gorgeous on the KF.

My other top apps (in no particular order):

1. GMail (although I don't really use it)

2. GMaps and GEarth. Tablet is perfect for browsing maps.

3. GMusic (finally found a use for it).

4. Dropbox and Mozy

5. Ended up putting a decent web browser on there.

At the end of the day, the KF is a toy, and part of the enjoyment of said toy is the challenge of hacking it. :) It's also fun to launch the launcher and see what an Android tablet looks like, even if it's only used for getting to the Market.

If you don't live in the states you can't purchase amazon apps, Amazon don't recommend overseas people purchase fires but they sell them duty free at the airport, go figure, that's my reason and it wasn't exactly stress free.

Haven't yet, plus it's sorta my wife's KF, but I would like add'l WiFi options, Google Market, etc. One thing I haven't determined yet is can I *just* root it and leave the Amazon launcher (blasphemous for XDA, I know)?
[Kindle Fire General] jacewt:
Yes you can. You can gain root and do the things you want to do by just gaining root. If you install firefirefire and recovery like cwm you can install stock roms.

Custom ROMs may come later. For now, just root access :-)

Hi.

I got my beautiful Note yesterday and started tinkering right away, got really careless while following this guide:

someadress/root-and-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-samsung-galaxy-note/

used the .pit called "u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit" linked in the package and didn't uncheck the re-partition box. After reboot i got the yellow trianglethingy. Download mode and clockwork recovery still work but thats about it.

I dont really know what to do, downloaded N7000XXKKA_N7000OXXKK5_AUT.zip but Heimdall doesnt seem to like it. Good news is that Heimdall and Odin 1.85 both recognize the phone in download mode. Perhaps a .pit will solve my conundrum?

Have searched the forums, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhundven:
Get Heimdall, put your note in download mode. Go to the utility page, under "download as a file" click "save as", in the dialog put "galaxynote.pit". This will download the pit from the phone. Now you can untar the odin package (which might contain a pit too, in this case, you'd want to use that one), go to the flash tab of heimdall and select the pit you made (or got from the odin package, if it came with one), and add partitions and add the files from the odin tarball you extracted.

EDIT: This thread should be move to general. Moderator has been notified.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comae:
where does zImage go?

Thanx alot for the help so far, I've extracted the pit and loaded it in Heimdall. Ive assigned all parts of the tarball with the stock firmware (N7000XXKKA_N7000OXXKK5_AUT) I downloaded from here. It didn't come with a .pit-file. In which partition do I put zImage, its the only file left from the package?

These partitions are unassigned so far:

GANG

SBL2

KERNEL

RECOVERY

DATAFS

UMS

EFS

also, do i tick the repartition and reboot boxes? Is it possible that the .pit-file on my phone is somehow broken? Wouldn't it be safer if I could have yours?

Had the same problem when I first installed this Rom. Ironically, automatic brightness does nothing to control the brightness of your camera application.

Go to..... settings-display-brightness... and unclick auto brightness. Turn your brightness to maximum. Close it out, then follow the same path and turn your auto brightness back on.

Forgive me if the path I gave you is incorrect, as I am not currently running this Rom :-)

3.- As soon as "Samsung" screen appears release power button while STILL holding vol up + vol down.

4.- Keep vol up + vol down pressed for about 5 secs after you released the power button

5.- Release vol up and vol down and it should go straight to Recovery.

Been using various Roms on my sgs2 and currently using the excellent TheGingerMod rom.

One thing I have been looking for is the samsung stock email app (for using a Exchange email account for work) but without the security administrator functions activated, im not keen on my work having full access to my handset and even the remote wipe!

I've tried a couple of email apk's listed in the Apps & Themes section but can't find one that fully stops my work having access to remote wipe and other security functions.. Perhaps its not possible?

One I currently use is ok (gingerbread email) from gauner1986 but I miss being able to move emsils to my folders etc, which samsung does very well!

I found another email apk which was posted as being a modified samsung version but couldn't run it..simply crashed each time I ran it...
