Tutorial

Essential Pre Requisites:

All the data present in your device should be backed up so that just in case if any data gets corrupted or erased, the same can be easily restored with the help of simple steps mentioned below. Don’t make use of KIES PC Suite to back up the data as with the below mentioned steps you can effectively backup the data.

SMS – Use “SMS Backup & Restore app”,

Contacts – Sync with the Gmail application,

Call Log - Call Log and Restore

Songs, Videos, Files – Copy to internal / External SD Card,

APN and MMS Settings – Note down from the path “Applications > Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names”

Minimum battery left in the device should be 60% so as to avoid device from getting turned Off in the middle of firmware update. Also, you need to ensure that all the antivirus suites in your phone and PC are completely disabled.

So assuming that you have followed all the instructions mentioned above, it’s now time for you to get started with the tutorial to Root Samsung Galaxy Y.

Procedure to Root Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos:

Download the Galaxy Y Pro Duos Rooting Package from here to your computer and once you do so, connect your phone to the computer with the original USB cable. Place the file in your SD Card and not in any of the sub folders.

After copying the file, remove the connected USB cable and enable the USB debugging in your Galaxy Y Pro Duos phone from the path “Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging”. The USB Debugging option should be ticked.

Now turn off the device so that the phone can be then entered in the recovery mode. The recovery mode can be entered by Pressing and holding the Home button and then the Power button. If the device gets turned ON in the normal mode then you need to again try the same process of getting into the recovery mode.

Now, in the recovery mode select “install zip from sd card” > “choose zip from sd card” > and select the “Rooting Package”. Once the zip file is updated successfully, you now need to select “++++ Go Back ++++”.

Now, you need to select Wipe data/factory reset and also you need to select Wipe Cache partition and then reboot your device by selecting reboot system now with the help of Volume rocker keys.

Once you are done with the cache clearing and wiping the data, you now need to select “reboot system now” option for restarting the device. Once the device is restarted, you then need to Download & Install the Superuser application from the Google PLAY Store.

Note: Just in an unfortunate event just in case if you face any issues in the middle of firmware update, you need to again follow the instructions from the start. If the device gets into the boot loop mode then you will have to re insert the battery and re apply the firmware update again.

So congratulations, you have now successfully rooted the device. Do let us know in the comments section just in case if you face any issues as we will try our level best to sort out the same.

[General Questions and Answers] picard13:
First, I thank you much for your quick answer and all the explanations given.

I forgot to mention I did search a lot on google before coming here requiring your help, saw the site and read the tuto you're talking about.

Unfortunately, the phone is well locked and it's impossible to access the recovery mode by pressing the HOME + Power buttons (nor via any other combinations that I found here and there, like HOME + Vol UP + Power buttons).

In fact, I first spent a lot of time trying to access this recovery mode, as I've already copied an appropriate zip file into the phone in order to root it, but without any success......

Then I heard about superoneclick on chinese forums, and thought it could save me, but once more it's not that simple.

I still need help, whether to know :

1. how to access recovery mode when buttons combination doesn't work and phone still not rooted ;

2. or how to use superoneclick properly and get rid of this "Error creating Nydus: Permission denied".

Thanks much in advance, cause I really don't know what more I could do now.
[General Questions and Answers] picard13:
Does anyone know how I could do ?
[General Questions and Answers] smitty_52:
Make sure your connection is internet mode.
[General Questions and Answers] picard13:
Yeah internet mode has been activated, and it doesn't fix the problem...

Thus I decided to try again the method which have been posted above, via the recovery mode.

As explained above, I can't access the recovery mode via the 3 buttons combo.

I found the famous thread where the heimdall method is documented and wanted to try it, but I can't get the proper files since multiupload.com seems to be down.

Moreover, I can't find the files via google and can't post in the related topic (since vgot less than 10 posts...).

Could someone help me to find the following files in order i try to apply the 3BR procedure ? :

adbDownload.zip

RAZ_P-SBL_SGS.tar

Thanks much in advance.

hello all

we are all like ics roms .. they are wonderfull. but for me i can't find a really good one music program that almost play most forms like buzz player to enjoy with ics rom.

there is a problem with buzz player and ics roms as i tried different roms but all have the same problem. you can make everything with buzz player except going to local media part which is the most important one .. even if you tried to go directly to the file and pop up the menu of players and choose buzz player the phone will freeze and pop up an error message.

any suggestions for this or a match one to buzz player?

Ok so I figured out, for everyone who's stuck on the Black Screen on reboot problem or on 15-17% error on updater,

you have to install the "flashpack for kdz" with the *mod*.exe

then hold your phone's power button until it vibrates, and select CS_Emergency instead of Emergency from the list.

Hope this helps!

[Desire HD General] okkie:
hey guys ... really i need your opinions ...

i will sell my DHD after 2 days i want to buy HTC Sensation

but sometimes i feel that i will not find a big different between them.

also i'am thinking in Sensation XE :rolleyes: i can buy it too

but plz don't tell me wait for HTC ONE series cause it will be expensive for me

note:

i still have a chance to keep my DHD

:D
[Desire HD General] atrost:
A friend of mine has the Sensation.

It a little faster and the screenresolution is better.

But the screen of the Desire HD i have is a little wider and that is for me more interesting.

There a two important things for the Sensation:

- better camera like HD video

- front camera (for esp. video chat)

If you don't need this you have a very good smartphone with the Desire HD.

I'll be waiting for the One because these are really new ones!

Otherwise it's a personal feeling for your favorite phone.

All of them are very good smartphones.
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
I think it all comes down to what it's gonna cost you to change, for anything more than 50GBP I think you'll be disappointed with the sensation, if it where me I'd stick with the DHD until the ONE series drop to sensible prices
[Desire HD General] djolebih:
Wait for One series and buy one of those. Sensation sucks.
[Desire HD General] matthew33:
I reckon you should wait til the HTC One V comes out.....Desire HD to Sensation?? - hardly much of an upgrade.:confused:

Desire HD to One V = HUGE upgrade - awesome bit of kit!!:D:D

[Desire HD General] shad0wboss:
I would wait for a quad core to hit the mid end price range until then i would just buy a beats headset and listen to dub-step ;)
[Desire HD General] r0cafella:
One V? I don't see how it's much of a upgrade at all to be honest, are you referring to the one s?

One V is bottom of the range in the one series and very much comparable to DHD
[Desire HD General] okkie:
so what about

Sensation XE

with 1.5 dual core, full HD video, better screen and of course Beats Audio :D

what you think guys ?
[Desire HD General] djolebih:
Dude, just wait for One X/S. Sensation is not that big of an upgrade and XE is fairly smaller compared to DHD. It's more powerful sure, but One X has nearly triple the power for example
[Desire HD General] okkie:
that's true mate ... but i think that ONE X/S will be very expensive :(
[Desire HD General] okkie:
that's true mate ... but i think that ONE X/S will be very expensive :(

and ONE V not an upgrade to me it's downgrade.

[Desire HD General] djxtabay:
I was also looking to upgrade as my DHD comes from a noob who bricked it, i bought it 40$.

The wifi is an issue when I am on any 2.3.x roms but ok with LordICS... Anyway, I think SGII is a good choice on official ICS + it has OTG&HDMI, I'm looking for a desktop replacement almost hehe.

However I've seen somes benchmarks of the htc one and evo4 on cm roms benches the samem a dual-core..... But i dont remember if it was the one x or s

Hi I own a stock i9250 gsm and I am trying to update gmail. I am not sure if there is an update. When I search the gmail app in the play store it does not show up. I try to install it from play.google.com and my phone does not highlight to send it. the version of gmail Ihave on my phone is 4.0.2-235179. Is this normail?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhernand1102:
That's the same version that I have too so I think it is the latest version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
The Gmail app in the play store is the pre-3.0 version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
There's no update. The GMail included in ICS is of a higher version than that it the Play Store. Unless your Play Store says there is an update, there isn't one :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tdoughone:
I want to know if the Gmail app shows in the play store in a stock i9250 because it doesn't for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
No it doesn't for the reason I posted earlier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Did you not read what we said? lol. Its not in the Play Store, because the one included with ICS is a higher version than supported in the Store at the moment. You're effectively beyond up to date. You'll be notified when there's an update....

ok soi have this mx2 in my possession now and am failing at flashing it. its no working like the atrix i had before. when i use rsd, find the "datona sbf" file, start rsd on the phone hook up the phone. start after it sees the device.....

about 7 mins in it says failed re-enumeration blah blah blah..... also on the phone it reads like this:

RSD

Starting RSD protocol support

SVF:106:2:3

am i doing something wrong or is this phone a piece or, do i need to go sacrifice a lamb.......

also, i noticed in a previous post that someones phone showed the imei, snid or drm version or something....... WTF IS WRONG????? i dislike this phone.... it needs a MEME

I think you need a 236 sbf. I want one too.

Did you only try a Mx2 sbf? Not one marked MB870?
[Motorola Droid X2] bzmotoninja83:
it seems that i have a fuctup phone now. the last phone i had that would not let let me downgrade anything was the BIG APPLE. yes i was at one time a lamb.... baa baa........

so, how can i get it to recover? i see you have multiple posts looking for a 2.3.6 sbf. if i have a nandroid that i download for 2.3.5 can i get it to go? i can get into stock recovery but nothing for bootstrap because that has all been wiped......... oh **** me running.......
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
bzmotoninja

Sorry man, but both our phone's bootloader are locked. Nandroid can't touch those parts!
[Motorola Droid X2] bzmotoninja83:
quick question then as it seems that ive wiped everything but my own ass at this point. is there an update.zip that i can use to modify the oem 3e recovery from this point and then find a rom to install or is there a stock "signed " rom that i can put on the sd card(external) and get it to atleast wink at me by chance?
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
This "nandroid Port" succeeds where an SBF of the 236 Milestone x2 to our phone results in a one way path to a near brick:

Thanks screwdriver. I'm going to give it back to him and let him take it to ntelos. I've told him already that they are gonna they to fix it out of the store. Just needs to say that he was trying to get the 2.3.x ota and it froze. So he rebooted and there we are. Anyways, thanks for your help on what you do. I think moto needs to unlock all the boot loaders and let Dec teams do what they do with full potential.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
Android security != Linux security. On stock Android, have you ever noticed how you don't have to put in a password every time you want to install an app? There isn't a single Linux distribution out there that I can name where you're given the ability to modify the system like that without prompting for root or admin privileges. The app gives you a single "Are you sure?" prompt and then it goes about its business.

The fact that apps have the inherent ability to sidestep the standard Linux permissions pretty much breaks all of the functionality of SELinux, so it has to be rebuilt specifically for Android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidMahn:
That makes sense.

And no this is not a Kies update post but I expect it will get deleted or moved wihin minutes as usual.

For those of you running Windows 7 there is an "optional update" for new Samsung drivers. These are: Mobile USB modem, Moile MTP device and Mobile USB composite device. I found them through Windows update and as they are optional I was not notified of them. You have to plug your SGS2 in to the USB and start Kies to install them and it will require a reboot so save any data first. Hope it is of use.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] silvehosszu:
Hi everyone,

I am a long time iPad user, but on the other hand using android phones from quite a while (samsung sg1, sg 2, sgn now).

After seeing the new iPad I am really thinking about getting the transformer prime.

The big plus is the keyboard dock. The big minus is the lack of 3g but I may use my galaxy note as a wireless hot spot.

The only thing which is keeping me from buying is the long thread from the general section of this forum which contains great number of horror stories related to the transformer prime after the ics update.

The retailer from whom I want to buy has the prime with honeycomb on it.

Is it better to keep the old os? Are the ics bugs really wide spread.

Any help is welcome.

my Prime arrived with ICS already installed on it. So far the only significant issues I've encountered are wifi range and GPS, which I already knew about from reading other reviews. Since most of what I'm planning on doing with my Prime is off-line stuff anyway, I'm not terribly bothered.
