It's dangerous if you flash the wrong version for your phone.

Same "cannot locate hidden partition" here.

I have a 9100P LPY: i just flashed the CR-Root kernel and tried Triangle Away, but it does not work.

Anything I can do?

Thank you!

I can confirm that it works with Siyah 5.0.1 on Paranoid Android 2.52.

I just wanted to take the time to say thank you for this app Chainfire, and for all of the hard work you've put into it for all of us. It takes a real stand up person to also make it available to the people who can't afford it, and you deserve the utmost respect for it. It's a way of thinking that's literally the polar opposite of the way a lot of these manufacturers treat people, and it's refreshing to see that there are still some good people out there after all. I can only imagine how under appreciated you probably feel at times, especially considering the ridiculous entitlement some people have today. I'm happy to support your efforts man, because imo you truly deserve it and then some, because unfortunately people like you are few and far between anymore. Thanks again! :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reinbeau:

This is a wonderful sentiment and we all agree with it, however, let's not fill the thread will accolades, remember, this is Original Development - please hit the Thanks button to show your appreciation on the above quoted post and move on.

hi reinbeau!

i'm also using note 2 with stock+rooted and no custom recovery. during my first try of triangle away, i was getting "official" and counter "0" in download mode. But my settings/about device/status says "modified" (just like the problem of one user here). i was advised to wipe cache and wide data, and did just that. About device/status became "normal".....however, after less than a week, i checked about device/status and it reverted to "modified", and I havent flashed anything.

can you give what exactly you did to make your about device/status to become "normal" again?

thanks!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] memee4eva:
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? My flash counter still reads "1" and my status still reads "Modified"

I have AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-I317)

1. Rebooted to TWRP recovery, wiped out everything (data/factory reset, internal, system) and flashed (Stock Rooted I317UCALJ2 - Odex) from http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1986556

2. Used CF's method to re-root and re-install stock recovery.

3. Used Triangle-Away to reset the counter.

4. Uninstalled Triangle-Away after reboot (from step 3).

5. From SuperSU settings I did Full Unroot.

6. Rebooted to stock recovery and did a factory reset. Status still reads "Modified" after the factory reset.

Status reads "Modified"

Odin readings:

custom binary download: Yes (1 counts)

current binary: custom

system status: custom

Need to make sure you also flash back stock kernel.

You might refer to dr. katen's guide, some software are updated, but it is still informational.

You know, I really didn't do anything but follow the directions (I printed them out - I need guidance ;) ) I just ran Triangle Away and it just worked. As you can see I'm not the most technical person....I trust these guys here to help me make my phone what I want it to be :)

I just went back and read the OP and found this: Note#2: on new devices like the SGS3/SGNote2/SGNote10.1, the "system modified" status can only be reset on some firmwares - they must be stock firmwares! Perhaps that is what is going on here. My firmware version accepts the action, yours doesn't. But don't take my word for it!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] joshw0000:
This app is great! I just bought an AllShare Cast and couldn't figure out why neither my S3 or Note 10.1 word connect. After some research I ran Triangle Away and both connect without problems.

I understand there is a risk when using this app, just as any other app/mod from XDA brings. I'm just curious, if something went wrong, what's the chance of hard bricking my device(s)? Soft bricks don't worry me. I'm comfortable with Odin. This is a powerful app and I'm just trying to get an understanding of the potential risk. How many people have hard bricked without any user error?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tkbf:
In the recovery, you can use Vol+/Vol.- to choose item, and Power to take action.

In the Android, well, your phone model is SIII right? Connect an USB OTG cable to your phone, then you should be able to use regular mouse to control your phone.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] w1bmw:
Great little app

I had no problem paying for the Play version just for peace of mind if I ever have to take my phone back to T-Mo for any reason. I only had a '1' on the counter, now a happy '0'
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] PhuocTri:
I flash back to stock ROM. And may be USB device cannot mount untill Welcome Wizard finish. But, no touch screen, so, cannot finish it.

Can you confirm?

My phone is E210L, S3 Korea... It's support OTG?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robl45:
in the OP there are two files, I know what to do with the APK, what do you do with the other file? I don't seem to see any directions on here.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tkbf:
If you flash back to stock ROM, USB device should work, or I believe you have another hardware problem.

On 4.1.1 Note 2, I can confirm mouse works, no additional driver or app required, of course you must have an OTG cable. I believe it will also work on S3.

When a mouse is connected, you will see the cursor appear on desktop,

Click mouse left button = Execution, just like your single touch on the screen.

Click mouse middle button (if exist) = Press Home button

Click mouse right button = Press Back touch key

Long press mouse left button and move mouse = Swipe on screen

Long press mouse left button and do not move mouse = Press Menu touch key

Long press mouse middle button = Long press Home button

Long press mouse right button = Long press Back touch key

Scroll mouse wheel = Scroll list items.

What we discussed above is out of topic, so if you still need help regarding OTG USB, please pm me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nyunyu:
chainfire, I bought the version on Play to show my support but seems like there is no option to reset on boot?

and no matter how many times I reset the counter kept showing 1.

I'm on SGS Note 2 Stock rooted.

IGNORE THAT, flashed redpill kernel and it works now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tkbf:
There is no any error in TA, please read OP, and your question asked many times in the thread.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reinbeau:
There are clear instructions in the first posts of this thread. If you can't understand them you really shouldn't be using this tool.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robl45:
well gee, if I could find the instructions, I wouldn't be asking. I read through the first 4 pages and don't see anything that says how to install it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sarbe:
Just install the APK, run it, give it root access.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reinbeau:
You say above you know what to do with the apk, so install it. Then follow the app instructions. It really is that simple.

Sent from my Samsung Note 2 i317 - I eat apples, not use them :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robl45:
yes, but there are 2 files, do I even need the second file or just the apk?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reinbeau:
Since none of the instructions mention that second file just ignore it - I have no idea why it's there, Chainfire must have provided it for someone somewhere along the line.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] RoryB:
The second file is explained in the FAQ in the same OP.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reinbeau:
Thank you, missed it - or just didn't pay attention to it at all since it didn't apply to my Note 2 :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robl45:
I missed that too, its for my note 2, so I'll just use the APK, easy enough. Thanks everyone.

Parse error - There is a problem parsing the package

When I try to open the v2.37.apk (on my Note running bog standard - but rooted - 2.3.6), I get an error:

Parse error - There is a problem parsing the package.

I've tried downloading a couple of different ways (directly to the Note and via my PC). Is anybody else getting this message? Is the file corrupt?

UPDATE: Have since upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 and TriangleAway works fine.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dherre65:
Just checking; the OP states: "The "system" status is not even always resettable in the bootloader. If you are going for warranty, you need to also reflash a full stock firmware and wipe your device. If they boot up your device and find root apps, you're not going to get any warranty anyway. If you do such a full stock reflash and wipe, the "Modified" value will go away.".

It says you need to ALSO reflash a full stock firmware. Does that mean that if I flash a custom kernel or rom and I want to go for warranty I first need to use triangleaway and then reflash full stock or is the triangleaway a non necessary step in that case?

So; if I flash a custom kernel/rom and a I want to go for warranty is only flashing a full stock rom enough to get rid of the triangle/counter/notification that system is modified or do i need to use this app prior to flashing a full stock rom?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
AFAIK, use TriangleAway app to reset the flash counter, then boot directly after resetting the counter into download mode and flash stock ROM.

Then everything should be fine.

Good luck !

okay so just used it to remove the triangle from my phone now i'm having problem getting my sd card recognized by the phone, there's no mount or unmount sd card option, and ive tried turning the phone on and off with and without the sd card, and also tried re-flashing my current rom over after re-formatting everything from recovery, i think the sd card isn't aligned properly so its not being recognized but i have no idea how to fix it.. i had this problem on my HTC phones and used 4ext to fix it, but no idea on Samsung

Hello nice misters, i really need some help if someone is willing to:

A friend of mine was *****ing with the little red exclamation on the upper-left part of his screen at boot and in his despair of re move it, just ignored/misread this quote of "Galaxy SII Only" and who-knows-what-passes-in-his-head, flashed param.tar this in a Galaxy SIII GT-i9300

The phone was having the following symptoms:

1) Rebooting when shutting down screen.

2) The phone was entering recovery.

What has been done:

1) Entered recovery, formated /system and /cache and tried to install a custom rom (lastest Omega for Galaxy SIII) - did not work

2)Downloaded lastest leak that was flashable by ODIN and flashed by it. After that, entereed recovery and did a factory reset. Result: Phone is booting, but USB Media mount not working, bluetooth not working, and it seems that the phone is not entering in deep sleep.

There is anything that we can do? Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Chronos1121:
I have a question, what possibly can interrupt installation of the addon that program is downloading?

I have Note 2 latest stock ALJ3 rooted but when I run the Triangle program starts download, download finishes but after I press reset counter program starts checking kernel and crashes with FC. When I run it again download starts again. So it seems that addon helps to identify kernel but it can't be installed and that's why program crashes.

How can I fix it or where can I get addon for ALJ3 stock rom?

BTW the same is true for Mobile Odin, şt also can't install the addon but at least I can get the flash kernel from the topic on the forum for it.

Nothing is available for Triangle though.

Thanks in advance for any possible help.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] garwynn:
Still trying to track down the flash counter location in JB for the Epic 4G Touch...

so now I'm looking over Chainfire's references in the first page.

Bad news, at least without source - mmcblk0boot0/1 not visible.

Guess this is why it's reporting what it is - hidden partitions not found.

Also guess we'll have to compare ICS vs. JB source and find out what changed (and see if we can restore).

Alternatively I got this from a GS3 guy:

adb shell
su

echo -n '\x00' | dd obs=1 count=1 seek=4193796 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0

...as a way they're manually resetting the counter.

I'm not keen on changing data unless I know what it is so I'm going to try and dump the entire offset based on Post #3 (and adjusting accordingly based on above) and see if this holds for our phone.

A couple of pokes:

1|shell@android:/dev/block # hexdump -x -n 128 -s 4193796 mmcblk0
hexdump -x -n 128 -s 4193796 mmcblk0

hexdump -x -n 2 -s 4193796 mmcblk0

Any other advice on how I can possibly help get this working again on our JB would be most appreciated!

Edit: Looks like we may be able to reset by jig for now, I'm looking into this as well.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Vipeout:
Ok so I just flashed the I9300XXDLIH official firmware (4.1.1), returning to stock firmware and stock recovery. I then rooted (while retaining the stock recovery) and used triangle away. It showed the flash count as 3 before aplying the fix, and now it shows flash count 1 and "custom "status. It stays like that and won't go to 0 no matter what.

How come it removed the 3 count and replaced it with 1 but won't remove it to 0? I don't use a custom kernel or custom recovery.

I read certain kernels are compatible and let it go to 0 but when you use a custom kernel, it will be set to 1 on each reboot anyways, so that doesn't help.

Anyone know how to get i to 0? It worked on a CM Rom but I need it to be zero with the stock firmware

thanks for replying

One more thing. Although this resets the counter, the settings > about device > device status could still show "modified". You will need to flash a stock firmware to get this back to normal.

I don't believe this is true. If you have a custom recovery then yes, but if you're simply rooted, you can get rid of the trinagle. That's the whole point of this mod. It worked fine for me. Just read a few posts above and you'll see this is the case.

Simply rooted supposedly OTA will work. Custom recovery means it won't.

This worked perfectly for my sprint gs3! Thanks chainfire!

I was rooted with a custom recovery and I ran the tool, it said it was successful but after a reboot it would still show one on the flash counter, I assume because of the phone still having a custom recovery.

The way I got it to work was to use the tool and then immediately power down and go into download mode to use Odin to flash the stock tar. Booted up with a flash counter of zero and setting didn't say modified anymore. I took it to sprint (within my 14 days) for a blotch on the screen and they swapped it with no issues.
