Even though you provided it free - bought it from Google Play to support you. Thanks, reset my GS3 flash counter back to 0.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireboypr:
Donated as promised!!! Will also buy market version to donate more! Thanks Chainfire and enjoy vacation!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] carhauler1969:
Worked like a charm! :D My counter was at 9, now it's at ZERO!!! Thanks Chainfire!!! :D:beer::D:beer::D:beer:

Bought the Play Store version to show my support! :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Pard0ned:
Just dropping by to say that it's worked great on a european Galaxy S3 I9300 using Omega 9.0 ROM, and Siyah's v1.3.8a kernel.

My heart was racing though as I clicked the reset counter button. You don't get that feeling that everyday! :eek:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dstruct2k:
Successful reset on Telus SGS3 running Jellybean! Thanks Chainfire!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rgoyena:
I will buy to donate ro chainfire.

Quick questiin, this doesnt cause IMEI right for att s3? Lol im so paranoid now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireboypr:
no
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Dave the Knave:
V1.70 confirmed working on my AT&T SG3 running stock UCLEM with root only. Went from 8 counts back to 0 with official binary status. Thanks Chainfire!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] wavrunrx:
using ATT sgs3, ran the reset flash count option, and triangleAWAY Force closed....

rebooted and phone still works just fine, but flash count is still stuck @ 2 :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] killahhops32:
Thank you worked like a charm!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireboypr:
Try to open superuser app and update binary. Then try triangle away again. Let me know
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Jedis:
I see "Custom" with an unlocked padlock on the initial bootscreen. TriangleAway reports that the counter is at 0.

How do I get rid of "Custom" on the startup screen? I guess I am confused about what this app really does.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Bizdady:
Did you install the add on apk as well?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] majingrim:
Confirmed working 100% on Bell Canada running CM10. Huge thanks! :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] wavrunrx:
oh wow... addon apk ?

i must have missed this.

*edit

where is this addon apk ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] moonfire711:
If I read the instructions right, there is an addon .tar for solving a certain issue, but next to it's explanation and use detailed in the OP, it states that it's for the GS2 only.

I believe the OP also states you must flash a stock rom and kernel to get the "custom" to be removed.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jnehama:
I have a rooted stock Verizon SGS lll with TWRP recovery. I got the Triangle Away app and it reads that my flash counter is 0, system binary is official and system is SCH-I535. I booted into odin mode and the counter is no the binary is Samsung official but system status is CUSTOM. Is it safe to run the app and will it change the system status to official or will that only clear up if I flash uprooted stock with stock recovery?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] moonfire711:
I have not tested, but a rooted stock is still custom. If you put the actual (unadulterated) stock rom on your phone, it will most likely go back to original and the "custom" will be gone.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kssxs:
That was confirmed in the AT&T thread. The 'Modified' status is inconsequential, so don't worry about it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rgoyena:
So mine says 1 just hit the reset right and it will show 0?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Goatblaster:
Thanks!

Confirmed - worked on Bell Galaxy S3 (SGH-i747m) running 7/20 CM9 nightly (CM9 standard kernel). Counter reset, no issues.

Tx!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] RMarkwald:
Someone tried it on their S3 on USCellular fourms replying with the application stating:

Magic Header not found. Incompatible device?

Hitting OK aborts the program. He was the only person to try it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nfaust01:
Was at 1 for my counter and custom for binary. Ran the app and now i am at 0 and Official. thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] arturox:
Great news to hear that now the S3 is supported, now I can change my phone lol
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Biker1:
TriangleAway works perfectly on my Sprint S3, Build# ending in LG2.

I installed it from the Market to support the Developer.

The Jig I used with my SE4GT only put my S3 into download mode, but Didn't reset the Binary Flash Counter.

Thanks for your hard work Chainfire.

Much appreciated as always ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Qverse:
It worked Great!!!

:good::good:

I have a rooted stock TMobile SGS lll with ClockworkMod recovery. I got the Triangle Away v1.70 app and it read that my flash counter is 7 and after running 0 , system binary is official. (because i am am stock but was reading before as custom) .. THANK YOU !! Chainfire Donation is on the way !!! This means Warranty is all good again Yessss:cool::cool::cool::cool:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] McAwesome:
Same thing happens for me on my ATT S3 stock rooted update su binary.

2992

Update: Odin'd back to stock using no tip method with root and now counter shows zero but still shows custom status.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zkibz:
Thanks for this. It works! :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireboypr:
Stock rooted is modified. You will have to odin stock unrooted to see official. There are also a few other roms rooted that will say official but not sure which. But dont worry about it cuz if u need warranty just flash stock.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cundiffr:
Worked like a charm!!

Galaxy S3 (Att)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] djricekcn:
what do I do if I have "Custom" for binary and the option below that. I have tmobile ver. with count at 1
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sarbe:
Use Triangle Away.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] djricekcn:
I think I'm not understanding something...maybe because of stupid heat and I can't concentrate...but right now I have Count: Yes (1) and custom for everything. If I just download and run the 1.70apk, the counter will go to 0 and the custom will change to stock?

what happens when i flash it with CM9/10? Do I lose anything after I use TriangleAway?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireboypr:
Yes. And if you flash cm and get that again then use triangleaway again
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] moonfire711:
It's like brushing your teeth. If after you brush, you don't eat anything again, you might be okay if you don't brush again. Since you know you're going to eat again, you just might have to brush your teeth again. No one will force you to, but well, you don't get the ladies that way.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireboypr:
LOL best example ever
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] moonfire711:
Hey, saving your warranty and winning with the ladies are both good things. But seriously, I don't know where I come up with this stuff.:confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] thcaddict:
I see one person took the risk and tried this on a US Cellular GS3 and got some type of error message. Has anyone else tried this method with the USCC GS3? I would REALLY like a working method to reset the flash counter on my US Cellular GS3 just in case I ever need to. If not, does anyone know of a different method that would work with us US Cell customers? Thanks in advance. And thanks Chainfire for your hard work and dedication, already bought this app from the Play Store even though I'm not sure I can use it yet... Keeping my hopes up

Redownload the APK.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Doeyourthing:
How many times can you do this "over and over again"? This is more like a resetting for emergency cases.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] meniak:
Seems more like superuser isn't set for allowing the app to run. make sure u have superuser and set the according permission
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ogy77:
Its important what we flash next time,what can be,I think if we flash with CWM no back triangle or counter,but if flash via odin then back,but its can damaged phone if we flash another bootloader ICS or GB?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] azulgranas:
It works on andyX rom v5.2.

Thank you so muchhhhhh bro!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] EleCtrOx666:
Nah, I speak french, it says "Parse error: There is a problem parsing the package".
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ererte:
you have a ICS rom? looking the screenshot, i think you have a gingerbread rom, the .apk work only on ICS....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] frooss:
Thank you man you really safe me :)

it's work with me fine.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] oodork123:
Sucks that its not supported for HTC evo 4g. Looks interesting.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] freemini:
If you had some other Samsung device, I may understand you posting here. But HTC is completely different.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] stuclark:
This may be way off the mark, but does this allow apps to install to secure storage (SD card) within the latest ICS / CM9 builds, or does the kernel / firmware look somewhere else as well for a signature before enabling that?

I have a stock ROM and other .apk are working fine... only this "TriangleAway-v1.10.apk" isn't ... I don't think it's caused by version of Android ... I tried to download this for more times and nothing...

Could somebody help me please? I need to give the phone to warranty servis ...

Thanks, James

PS: Sorry for my english ...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
The very first sentence in this thread is: This app can reset your flash counter and triangle on ICS builds.

A stock ROM is NOT an ICS Build!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
well, depend of how you see "stock". For me stock rom is a rom that has nothing else than stock things. Since ICS build are available like this, there is Stock ICS build.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
You're right in a way. But when he says: "I don't think it's caused by version of Android" i think he sees stock as Samsung's standard gingerbread rom.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sloanyboy:
first i want to thank chainfire for the many rooted kernals and this fantastic app to sort out our problem of the triangle and custom counter.

ive been flashing ics roms over the past 2 days some a bit buggy some dont have data working and vatious other bits and bobs. i installed chainfires triangle away this morning worked 1st time like a charm decided to go back to 2.3.6 with my nandroid and remembered i flashed this app and thought it may brick my phone and behold it didnt brick it the triangle isnt there and my custom count is still 0 so chainfire you have done a fantastic job keep up the good work we are all grateful for the effort and time you put into your research and development of your projects.

No, that's called AOSP.

Stock is the rom that ships with your phone or an official update released through Kies for our phones.

AT&T SGS 3 in White, that had a custom Binary count of 6. I'm stock that is rooted thru mkskip's Samsuns GS3 ToolKit v1.0

After buying Triangle Away and running it ( you may have to run it twice. 1st to grant it SuperUser access, 2nd time actually opened the app)...I confirmed that the count was 6, ran it and app reports its set to 0. Went to Download Mode (Vol Down, Home, Power) I see:

ODIN MODE

-Product Name: SGH-I747

-Custom Binary Mode: No

-Current Binary: Samsung Offical

-System Status: Custom

You are not so new here...

Quoting such a long post just to say thank you when you can just push thumb up button is not so nice for other users, mainly on mobile devices. Think at it next time

Thank you
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Just purchased. Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] djricekcn:
another question, will this work with CM9 or CM10 or should be avoid being used from either?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] GalaxyHeart:
Just ran this on a Rogers (SGH-I747M) SGS3 running Task's AOKP / CM9 ROM. Worked flawlessly.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] auto_freak:
worked perfectly on both my S2's. Flash counter reseted from 5 to 0 and 1 to 0. What a cool app, looks like there is a solution for almost everything in the Android world.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mario06:
Using it on the Samsung Galaxy S3 is useless then, it shows "modified" so for this model I'd say it's depreciated. I don't agree about the warranty factor because if you're unable to flash it back to the LE8 your basically screwed since they can see the modified state through their software (even if the screen doesn't turn on) and not the rooting part unless they go looking in each and every S3 which I doubt very much because it would be too time consuming.

I updated officially to stock LF6 firmware and then rooted with your software so something in your rooting process is causing it not to reset the modified state.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Modified is reset when you flash a stock fw. For warranty, you need to flash your stock fw anyway

Also, do not quote the whole long post 1 for just a question

Worked great on my Epic 4G Touch and CM 9 alpha 6 (well, one of the nightlys). Thanks Chainfire!!!

Did you see in the phone info menu to see if you have the 'modified' text?

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sarbe:
The app resets the flash counter, it doesn't reset the 'modified' text, flashing back to a stock rom will reset the text.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Qverse:
This is what I thought ..It needs to be back to stock and UN-rooted. Is the only way for a warranty to be valid. No? Thats how i did with My Tmoble Vibrant. Button damage by dropping it. I just stocked it back and un-rooted and not a problem .

On mine galaxy s3 official firmware , rooted , on current status it doesent display counter , it say we need to reboot into a special bootmode ! same like in Reset flash counter . I dont know should i reset it without current status displayed ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
You can boot into special boot mode.

There is will show the current state and ask, if you really want to reset the counter.

If you only want to check, Say 'No' and the count will not be changed at all.

Hosed my touchscreen somehow, totally non-responsive. Able to use mskip's toolkit to go back to stock recovery and rom on SGS3, and download mode now says 'official Samsung, and Official Recovery, but with 8 counts on download custom. Is there ANY way to execute TriangleAway via adb...since I have NO touch whatsoever? I know I can adb over the TriangleAway.apk, but everything I read indicates touch is required to run the .apk. TIA!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cooladityarai:
Hey everyone...

I m on stock rooted ics lp7. And i want cwm to install . So if i flash a kernel having recovery using mobile odin .....then also can i get binary counter increased and yellow triangle.....?????
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
No, if you ate already rooted, Mobile Odin app will flash the kernel without the yellow triangle and without increasing the flash counter.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mario06:
I know that but the purpose of triangle away is defeated because on the S3 it partially works. Why would one erase the flash counter if it shows the modified text? Let's say that you can't flash it because it doesn't turn on? You can't bring it in for warranty because Samsung will jtag it and simply read (software wise) that it is in a modified state, they added that for a reason don't you think?

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ctomgee:
Um, I think you misunderstand. The reason it reads as modified is because you're not running completely stock. Once you flash a completely stock firmware, it should no longer read as modified.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Maybe after jtag you need a full flash before it runs?

This might just have been me, but I thought it was worth reporting.

I updated to the newest firmware BLG8 on an I9300 (UK) this morning, but when it didn't help with my freezing issue (I didn't think it would), I decided to return it under warranty. I was fully stock, other than an insecure kernel and root. I used Triangle Away to reset the flash counter, and though it did that job, something must have gone wrong because I was unable to access access download mode the usual way afterwards - it was just starting normally instead. I was sure that I had downloaded the correct additional components and Triangle Away did not display any error messages. Thanks to some advice on the Q&A forum, I was able to force download mode by pressing the same three buttons and then inserting the battery. I now have a stock ROM but still no access to download mode without the battery trick.

For those of you in the know, do you think I was just unlucky? Or is there an incompatibility with the newest update?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jonno92:
Okay, so I can't install TriangleAway apk. I've tried putting it on my SD card and flashing it from CWM, and also by flashing it straight from the internet explorer on my phone.

When I look at TriangleAway in Google Play it says:

Any ideas? I'm on an S2 running CheckROM v6.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LordGeek:
CONFIRMATION .. this works with the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S III (SGH-i747)

You have to make a wipe factory reset and the status will be normal again.

I think only if you have installed a stock Rom :)

You don't flash this 'apk' via cwm...it's not a .zip file.

APKs install like a regular app.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mario06:
You don't seem to understand, what's the use if you erase the flash counters but it says modified? If your phone is dead Samsung will revive it enough to read 'modified' so no warranty.

No problem man.

Maybe try to redownload and install. May have been a bad download, perhaps.

release v1.70 looks to be a zip file and not an apk.

how to use it, as cwm didn't recognised it?

can someboby upload here the apk file?

guys, what is the param. tar file in OP for please ?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
If you have issues on SGS2, you can flash param file.

Sometimes it can solve issues with TriangleAway app.

If the app works fine, you don't need the param file.
