Hi,

I was wondering if Triangle Away will work on the new Nexus 7 which has Jelly Bean?

I purchased it from the store but quickly got a refund after reading some of the posts here that I could brick the Nexus 7.

I thought it wise to ask the question first because I would gladly re-purchase the app again if I learned it would not any damage.

I have Chainfire's other SuperSu Pro and it works great. I still need to learn some of its features but those questions are not for here.

The reason for even wanting Triangle Away is for my Asus TF300T. Which came out yesterday with an upgrade and its an upgrade Jelly Bean. But the upgrade failed with a red triangle with a ! inside the triangle.

Seems it did not like my build.prop file.

So apparently Asus only gives you 1 chance at it and if it fails you can no longer get it via OTA.

Yes, I just realized my brain is not working tonight, I need Triangle Away to work on the Asus TF300T tablet not the Nexus 7, I apologize for my error.

So does it work on the Asus TF300T running ICS?

Thank you!

Rob

Stuck on the official logo after using Triangle Away

Dear Friends,

I wanted to reset the binary and flash counter values...

So I have used Triangle Away App and after downloading the needed files I have clicked on reset binary and got this msg "THIS IS A DANGEROUS OPERATION AND COULD POTENTIALLY BRICK YOUR DEVICE. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK."

I continue to the operation and after it device logged into the official logo but it stuck there only on official logo...

"Samsung Galaxy Note GT - N7000"

Nothing happening,.... What to do? Afraid to touch the device, I may brick it..

what to do...?? Please I need your help...

Re-flash a stock firmware.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
No choise. Try restart in download or recovery. If it is ok, you are safe. Flash your kernel or rom again to fix.

Worked for me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] donalgodon:
Did it just work or did it give you a warning that you'd have to reboot into a special mode?

That's what it's doing for me, so I'm not going to proceed til I get a confirmation.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jj92942000:
Yeah had to reboot in special mode then asks if you want to proceed volume up, abort and reboot vol down and shows counter. Worked for me SGS 3 Int on Orange.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gaspernemec:
Is this confirmed to work on latest jellybean leak for galaxy S3 (XXDLH6)?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KidAngel:
Hello All, I am is new user for android and need for confirmation this TriangleAway-v1.80.apk is works with last I9300T firmware ( AP: I9300TDUBLH1, CP: I9300TDUBLH1, ASC: I9300TTHLBLG1). I afraid that when run my SIII will be brick.

Hey guys, i'm in a situation where my touchscreen has stopped working (and i cant get a keyboard/mouse working via the OTG cable either) so i need to try to run this using ADB.

I'm connected to ADB shell with no issues, and ive installed TriangleAway, but i'm not sure how to run it, as i dont know the "path"?

the command i've found is: adb shell am start -n com.package.name/com.package.name.ActivityName

I'm hoping that once ive managed to load it, i can send input commands to click the relevant buttons :eek:

Thanks for any help!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] peterlimonade:
Well, I can confirm TriangleAway does NOT work on JB ROMs.

I was using Resurrection Remix JB v3.0.5 with CM10 on my SGS2 when I decided I wanted to get rid of that jolly old warning triangle, and... forgot to read.

Luckily I managed to get rid of that hard brick (with Chainfire's help; used his CF-Root, so props for that :)), but I can't resist to help other misfortunates and ask: maybe a bigger warning sign is in order?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] muhtesem insan:
I have galaxy note, it asks me if I wanted to go special mode and when I say proceed it does not go.

And it downloads add-on everytime I open app.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Chainfire:
See private chat on IRC :)

You can't get rid of a hard brick. In case of hard brick, your phone is dead. Only hardware replacement will fix. You didn't even really soft brick if simply flashing a different kernel fixes the problem.

Did you attend drama school ? (joking)

No idea. Did you press the "Reset flash counter" button ? Which ROM are you using ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] muhtesem insan:
Yes I did. And I am on stock Germany LRK rom with speedmod kernel

edit: Ok, I've found it. It was because my language was set to Turkish. When I changed to English it was solved.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sarbe:
I have used Triangle Away on the last two JB leaks and it worked for me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
Awesome. Tried it out of curiosity and it worked perfectly on my S3. :) Gonna keep this app handy just in case, for warranty purposes. :D

Chainfire is my new hero :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bobdoblo:
Don't really understand this, I have flashed about 20 ROMS and about 30 Kernels on CWM but my counter says only 1???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
Flashing with CWM does not increase the counter.

Only when you flash an unsigned kernel with PC version of Odin to your phone, then you will get (a yellow triangle at boot and) an incremented flash counter.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bobdoblo:
Thanks

Sent from my Dual ROM - Dual Core - IP4s EATER!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] peterlimonade:
Then I've no idea what I've done wrong. I tried to use TriangleAway on JB, the triangle was gone when my phone started, but then it got stuck on the Samsung logo. No matter what I did, it wouldn't get further than that. Recovery mode was also inaccessible, but luckily Download mode wasn't. First tried to flash the param.tar, but without effect. I decided then to flash stock ICS firmware and a CF-Root kernel, but my phone still wouldn't boot - it was stuck on the first image of the bootanimation this time. BUT now I could get into Recovery mode, so I flashed a ROM I had still on my SD, and somewhat magically everything went back to normal. Well, not everything... my flash counter was indeed reset and is now back to 1 :)

But tell me Chain, how would you call this? As for a moment I was definitely afraid I bricked my phone...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Chainfire:
Not sure how you managed to get this to happen... obviously it shouldn't.

Not sure what to call it, but definitely not a brick. This is a case of firmware mess-up, usually fixable by simply reflashing a full firmware (wipe sometimes also required).

We usually reserve the use of "brick" for when your phone truly dies - and as you probably know, there's no return from being dead. On most Samsung's, this is actually not that easy to do ! (but indeed, worst case, Triangle Away could actually cause it - when coupled with an illtimed battery pull or something of the likes)

Updated to v1.90 with support for the Note 10.1 series !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mark ter Grote:
question..

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mark ter Grote:
did that and phone rebooted (triangle was away counter reset) but stil say current status needs special reboot
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gizmo:
Not sure what version your using....And don't know if it makes a difference, But v1.80 WORKS wonders! ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mark ter Grote:
i use 1.90
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gizmo:
....It wouldn't hurt to try v1.80! :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Chainfire:
It can't read the status when booted up... it can only read the status in that special mode, at which time it displays it on your screen. If on your firmware the status is not readable without the rebooting, you will NEVER see the counter in the app itself... only when in the special mode.

Has absolutely nothing to do with it ...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gizmo:
Didn't think so! :p, But still thought it wouldn't hurt trying v1.80! ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reckless_t:
Sent a PM as more FYI, but figured I'd post here for discussion too... I'm noticing after running TA on Epic 4g Touch(FH13) it's causing some permission issues with root. Do have Agat's FH13 safe kernel/recovery and tried Fix Permissions but it didn't clear the problem.

adb remount fails: Operation not permitted

couldn't copy apk to /system/app, but could make changes to build.prop using ROM Toolbox

I noticed the E4GT is not listed, but have seen others say it worked with it. It does work as far as resetting the counter and Binary flag, but resulted in root issues. Using v1.80, would 1.90 have better results?

Update: Further testing shows TA is not to blame, there is something else going on... Sorry for the false alarm.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zziggy:
Anyone notice that TriangleAway doesn't work on LH7. TA says my flash counter is 0 but settings/status/devicestatus says modified. Is it because i have root access?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tronmech:
Is there much demand for T-Mobile sgs2 support?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Lead foot:
It does that on any version. It only resets the flash counter not the device status. To reset that you need factory firmware, kernel and do a factory reset I believe.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zziggy:
Ahh good to know

2 weeks ago I got my new SG3. I rooted via odin with CWM, applied triangle away reset counter to 0, did my root apps. All is fine, phone status showed Modified. Know to change it have to flash stock firmware with mobile odin. Today I checked my status, don't know why but ... shows Normal. I need to understand how and why? If I remove my root apps and unroot would service know?

Is it possible to support Galaxy Ace 2 i8160 ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mohamedselim:
As i know if device status is modified you could not get ota updates it should be official to get them you should flash official firmware from for example www.samfirmware.com

Try kies if it connects properly and show device you could get updates via it

I do not care about official ota updates a long as i have cyanogenmode it has nearly daily updates via nightlies

you could get them via www.teamhacksung.org if your device is supported by them
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vavasound:
Doesn't worked for me...

I tried to use it on my SGH-E210L and it didn`t worked. Even with I changing the device name to GT-I9300 as a lot of tutorials said. When the device reboot it doesn`t get out of the samsung galaxy SIII screen!

It is like a brick and I need to reset the firmware with odin to get it working again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sarbe:
Is your device in the list? If you can get download or Cwm it is not bricked.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Stryke_the_Orc:
Has anyone tried this on a sph-d710 yet? I flashed the rejectz crack rom and now have the i9300 bootloader screen, just wondering if this would fix that?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] groston:
I downloaded the APK from this forum and installed the app. When I run it, it asks for SuperUser permission, which I grant. It then asks again, and again, without ever running. Any suggestions?

Phone in question is a Sprint Samsung E4GT (SPH-D710) running Garwynn's one-click FH13 CWM.

**NOTE** This is not a TriangleAway problem - I am having this same issue with other programs which request SuperUser permissions.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mohamedselim:
May be try to open superuser and update binaries

Or try to install supersu from google play and try again
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] laneyofdeath:
Whoa just noticed the strangest thing. After flashing omega v19 my device status says normal, not modified?! Not used triangle away or anything anyone have any idea why this is? Madness/coolness :)

Edit1: sorry meant to post to omega theead in fact.

2: think I understand now as it stock based although it has been altered so I don't understand fully :)

Edit again: wtf?! It has now changed to modified again. Thats real strange. Sorry if u think I just spamming but that was really odd.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] groston:

Hey Chainfire, purchased your triangle away some time ago.

I flashed back to ICS stock and then rooted with CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LQB-v5.6-Cwm.

I have the Bell Canada version of the 9100M; baseband is MUGLD3.

When I run triangle away it gives me the message "could not find the hidden partition. Are you running ics?

On reboot I get the yellow triangle any help would be appreciated!!!

Okay fixed it by flashing another cf root kernel.....all is good!!!!

Another question, which kernel would you recommend that would be closest to my base band? Thanks in advance!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] libetz:
Hey Chainfire and other people who can help!

I'm now on CleaNote v5.0 and hydra Kernel.

I have used Triangle Away, and everything was working just fine until I switched off my SGN, and when I turned it on, it got stuck on the boot splash screen. Now I am trying to figure out what is the best solution to this. If it would be possible, I would like to resolve it only by flashing a stock kernel with pc odin, getting root, and then flashing back the hydra kernel. All that without raising the counter.

Is it possible?

The steps as I see it:

- Flash any stock ICS kernel with pc odin

- Execute the following instructions: (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329360)

- Flash the latest hydra kernel from recovery

Is it doable and safe? Is there a better way?

Edit: Can I just flash the Hydra kernel using InitialCFRootFlasher after flashing the original kernel in PC Odin (if it works)?

thanks a lot
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] metalcerb:
I don´t know why but i can´t reset counter using triangle away (1.9) with last GT-N7000 firmware XXLRQ, always stop in boot before reset counter, and the only solution is flash kernel again in odin, i have Hydracore v3.5 flashed in my phone.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] metalcerb:
Someone already could use the triangle away with the new firmware? I always get a boot lock with new firmware and Hydracore v3.5.

Going to wait I think. VEEY nervous about poss. bricking my Gs3..

Can Anyone say how badly bricked it could become? As in TOTAL/non-recoverable BRICK?

I don't need this persay as I don't need warranty replacement (yestanyway) Probably best to wait yes?

Thanks

Faslane

Anyone have thoughts on it? Have youused sucesfully? Does it work most of the time and it's just a reguular disclaimer or does it have a high failure rate?

Thanks everyone!!!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
As I have used TriangleAway app several times on different ROMs and kernels and never had issues, it's just a "normal" disclaimer IMO.

Although there is a potential risk of bricking the phone, it seems to have a low probability.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Yes, and as far as I know, there was never a report of brick with it till now.

Chainfire said it could brick in theory, when something goes wrong while writing the blocks with this app. So, just like when you flash a full ROM with SBL...
