Thanks!!! It works with my Yifang / Mediacom MD 860 S2 (Generic ICS 4.0.4 tablet on a Cortex A9 platform)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wiifan:
Hi, I've Mediacom 715i (new one with 4.0.4), I've used n95-offsets to find the two offset, then I've executed mempodroid, but it doesn't work. still have '$' prompt. Any Idea?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Dovigoldberger:
Hi I'm new to the whole android system.

I'm rooted but not unlocked.

I installed the Rocko 3.0 rom for locked users and i want to install the beats audio mod. I wanted to know how to install it. do i do it thru recovery mode and just install zip, or do i just do it thru file explorer.

any help would be appreciated. thanks!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Doesn't Rocko already come with the beats mod included? Or am I mistaken? Either way you could just copy files with root explorer to destination fix perms and do it that way if you wanted.
[Motorola Photon 4G] 10-Dee-Q:
what "beats" performance fix ? care to share the link ?
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Beats audio libs, like beats by dre. some claim it helps other say it's useless.. Do a search on xda, I would for you but on photon :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Dovigoldberger:
I don't think rocko comes with the beats audio included cause there was a separate link for it. and i don't know how to replace the lib. so my question is if i could just install the zip file the same way i installed the rom thru recovery mode?
[Motorola Photon 4G] 10-Dee-Q:
i found the thread that discuss it, but the link was removed, can anybody give me the link to the working one ?

thank you.

I'm wondering why on earth you're waiting for official ICS? it could years!

Just flash custom ROMs.if you want it Google way just go	for AOSP or AOKP and you want Sammy you can go for Foxhound ROM or Omega ROM. and all of them already support RTL.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocky23:
lol when it comes ,we all will pm u....for gods sake :D:D:D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amititzhaki:
this ^.

rtl support on custom ics roms is built-in (afaik), and now you've got roms which are full-featured and very stable. i'm using hydrogen (based on AOKP) and i'm extremely pleased with it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mekhonte:
Yep hydrogen is a decent ROM, although i prefer resurrection remix and tnx to siyah kernel for dual booting i have foxhound as the second ROM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amititzhaki:
how would you say resurrection is better than hydrogen? both are aokp based, right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Truth of that is they are personal opinion no more and no less . Sometimes a rom becomes the hype rom of the moment with noobs .Often due to kool themes dude as they say .

I have tried all ICS rom builds and none as of yet match my current 2.3.6 build .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amititzhaki:
well yeah, i know it all comes down to personal opinion in the end.. and that hydrogen has a lot of hype surrounding it right now. but i was just curious about resurrection, as i have yet to try it myself..

(i'm being off-topic, i know..)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ansariharrism:
Native RTL support is not good enough!

I bought my Samsung Galaxy S2 from Saudi Arabia. I rooted my phone and installed a custom ROM (in fact, tried many custom ROMs that support Arabic Language). I can read and write Arabic language in a lot of applications without a problem, but in some applications the Arabic letters would remain disjoint and will be displayed in the wrong order e.g. 123 as 321! So, if someone can help on that, it would be great! And that is why most of us are waiting for the Official ME version of ICS, hoping that it would solve the problem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
ics sould not display Arabic wrong, either you are on custom GB without realizing or the app is on fault.

otherthan that there is a leaked jplpc rom at sammobile thats your middle east rom.

im using it and its pretty good.

you can also try the Israel ROM, it has much crapware but amazingly every one of them is uninstallable, without root.

so basically you can play with 2 arabic roms
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ansariharrism:
No, I am on ICS. You can have a look at the screen shots. Secondly, this app was downloaded from Samsung Apps. I have not yet found a better Quran reading application. Bought three more applications for reading Quran (including iQuran Pro), but the bookmarking style and facility was the best in tQuran (this application). Please do let me know if there is a solution.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
Check other thread, it could be app problem not OS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omarriachi:
i was waiting.

I was waiting for the middle east version of ics too till i read the reviews about ics in other countries. It was unpleasant and i got bored of waiting. Now im using the resurrection rom and trying to figure things out. Having trouble i admit like not using wifi direct and messy gallery but i gotta do something, right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ansariharrism:
Try VK ROM

Try the VK ROM. I am enjoying it a lot. Only two programs in Arabic do not work correctly.

---------- Post added at 01:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 AM ----------

Most probably yes. I guess it is the app problem as another application in Arabic that I downloaded from Samsung Apps also does not show Arabic text correctly. Although, all the applications in Arabic from Google Play Store work efficiently and display Arabic text correctly. Maybe some Samsung glitch?! :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
No app glitch, Samsung store is not that updated or follow any kind of rules that play store would have.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirchichamu:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaker Al-Salem:
Monopoly or lets say marketing

Well Ill tell you all why the official release is not out ONLY for the middleast, but all other countries can get the update through Kies (Samsung pc manager).. The middleast is known of its high sales, we play a big role in a companies profit so samsung knows as a fact that when the s3 comes out all will go buying it, but if the ICS was there for the s2 when the s3 got released, the s3 sales wont be as good.. just because the s2 & s3 both with ICS dont have a difference, maybe a slight difference.. ppl will be saying "why should I buy the s3, my s2 functions almost the same".. makes sense to me. Its a damn marketing strategy, what can I say my ppl are the richest in the world and someone got a take advantage...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MklAbdSmd:
I think you nailed it

I have to say, that's the best theory I've heard. I work in the middle east and bought my i9100g there, and it seems to be the last place to be getting ICS. For those of you who have never been there, sgs2 is extremely popular there - in a similar way to the iphone. When I drove down the highway last I saw at least 3 to 4 billboards for sgs3 - on the same road... they will probably sell like hotcakes. Last point-anybody see in the google i/o the heat map of android sales? yea that big red concentration in the middle was right on the arabian peninsula.

[Sony Tablet S] OCedHrt:
But it seems we are unable to chmod without root. So this would require one of our rooted ICS friends to give us the offsets?

chmod not needed in recovery, but it doesn't get root:
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
Too bad...

Well... That's the copy of a successful session, taken from my Galaxy Nexus (see image attached).

Too bad if the exploit doesn't root our ICS release.

Can you please post your run-as (/system/bin/run-as) binary ? I'll try to get the offsets another way.
[Sony Tablet S] condi:
I've managed to run your bin, got offsets, but still no root...:

n95-offsets by Nesquick95
Gets requiered offsets for mempodroid exploit

./mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh

and then:

shell@android:/ $ /data/local/tmp/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh
/data/local/tmp/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh
1|shell@android:/ $
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
Really too bad

Sony's ICS is built on kernel 2.6.39, normally rootable by this exploit... Maybe they have patched it...

Need a copy of /system/bin/run-as binary to try finding offsets another way, as a last chance. My tablet hasn't got the update (unrootable kernel 10 - French region)

:(
[Sony Tablet S] OCedHrt:
Binary attached.

Since we're unable to chmod under normal boot (operation not permitted), the only way is to run under recovery. Is it possible that mempodroid doesn't work under recovery?
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
The worst thing that could happend

I don't know if running in recovery can make mempodroid fail... It probably doesn't. But as you can see, Condi has run n95-offsets in "regular" /data/local/tmp without success.

I have verified the offsets in the run-as binary posted with IDA disassembler, the offsets returned by n95-offsets are the good ones.

I think Sony's 2.6.39 kernel is patched, the exploit won't work...

:( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

(Maybe) we will find an other one (some day)...
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
A last ray of hope ?

There is something weird in the run-as posted by OCedHrt... His ELF header show an entry point at 0x8000 when the other run-as' that I've seen have their entry point at 0x80C0...

It sounds a little simple but may someone test :

./mempodroid 0xd92c 0xae87 sh

Thx !
[Sony Tablet S] Maeur1:
Tried it, sadly did not work. I also got the latest version of mempodroid off the git, but still didnt work.

EDIT: FOUND a little thing, our offsets (from n95-offsets) are exactly the same as the transformer prime, maybe we can use the exploit they used to root ours?
[Sony Tablet S] OCedHrt:
I wonder how he got chmod to work. Well I assume he already had root. Chmod returns operation not permitted for me so I had to try it in recovery.
[Sony Tablet S] Nesquick95:
Transformer Prime is probably running the same kernel than our tablet but I guess it has been released earlier than Sony's ICS, when mempodroid was still young and proud (I mean not patched)!

It's hard to figure out, but we must keep on searching, try things like you suggest... I haven't decided yet if I will sell my Sony S or if I will loose some more time on it.

Flashing RUU 1.28 over existing

Hey guys, I am already running ruu 1.28 but I want to install it again over the existing system so I can start fresh. I tried flashing the img from the bootloader and via fastboot but nothing changes. I am running unlocked and rooted.

thanks for you help, i think im missing something really simple but im getting frustrated.
[HTC One X] rogersnm:
You need the flash the stock recovery, relock the bootloader and then run the RUU. That will return you to stock firmware.

No need to flash anything, just re-lock your device and run the RUU.exe.

I am trying to put my phone back to vodafone stock ROM,

phones with hboot 0.94.000?

its vodafone UK phone, I am trying to flash 1.26 RUU as there is not 1.28 RUU for vodafone uk yet, but it keeps giving error 140 bootload version error.

and everytime i relock my bootloader i get

RELOCKED

SYSTEM WARNING

after above phone keeps going back in to boot loader and the way it comes out and goes back to old ROM is by unlocking the boot loader again.

can any one help?

thanks
[HTC One X] rogersnm:
hboot 0.94 comes with 1.28, this means you won't be able to run a 1.26 RUU - you can only run 1.28 RUUs or newer. If you can't get the 1.28 RUU for your CID you won't be able to run a RUU. You can still flash custom ROMs though, so if your phone is bootlooping that's your way out.

[HTC One X] rogersnm:
Are you on vodafone UK? The 1.28 RUU is available for that carrier.

Even after relocking the bootloader and running a RUU, it's impossible (without S-OFF) to remove any trace that you unlocked it. The repair centre will still be able to tell.
[HTC One X] rohitbaba:
1.28 RUU is is only OTA not full unless there is one.

if there is can you forward me the link

[HTC One X] rohitbaba:
thanks for the link, so from what you have told me there is no way put the phone back to how it came from vodafone.

thanks

Dev
[HTC One X] rogersnm:
Essentially no. Once you unlock it, even if you relock it it won't be exactly the same. The bootloader will remember that it was previously unlocked and repair centres will be able to see it. That said, restoring the RUU is better than nothing, but from what I've heard the repair centres like to bill you for a motherboard replacement if you unlock your device.

UK law does give you a large degree of protection if you wanted to take it to court though (assuming you're returning it due to a fault that was not caused by unlocking the device)

I got sick of wondering when I was gonna drop my Note on the ground. I tried using a silicone case but it was too bulky and made the back too grippy to easily get out of my pocket.

Solution: rubber grip tabs on the sides where I hold my phone. Cost: $2.

I made an Instructable about it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] onetonnoodle:
nice mate, but I don't think this DIY is for everyone. I personally find it aesthetically unappealing. If you really don't want the note to slip from your hand you could try checking out cases with hand straps instead. Or maybe putting matte textured decals on the backside (and the silver side of the note). But I guess these alternatives doesn't go nowhere near $2 :)

ok so i just got this phone a few hours ago... so far ive used the HTC tool kit to unlock, flash CWM and gain root. fastboot says im still S-ON though but im unlocked and can confirm i have root access so is it safe to flash a custom ROM? my H-BOOT is 1.45.0013 & sw # is 1.63.531.2710RD. ive read that i can flash GB roms no prob but just wanted to make sure so i dont screw something up. thanks:p
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Limewirelord:
Yes, it is safe to flash a ROM. Unfortunately, you'll have to extract the boot.img from the ROM's zip file and flash it through fastboot, however, since S-ON does not allow flashing the kernel through CWM. There are several stickied threads that show you how to do so in the Android Development section.

You can achieve s-off here via Juopunutbear. Be warned that your SD car will likely be wiped out in the process, so back up your data just in case.

Hi,

I am using Cyanogenmod 7.2 (FXP 115) on my Xperia Mini Pro. This ROM does not provide a setting for a gradually increasing ringtone (like, start with really low volume on an incoming call and slowly increase to max when the call is not answered).

The only solution I have come across which could kind of work is the "Inreasing Ring" app on the market, but since I don't have a google account, I can't download that.

Does anybody have a solution for this? Or, can anybody provide an APK for Increasing Ring, so I can see if it works for me?

Thanks!

[HTC Rezound] Slacker101:
Is there a command to unlock the bootloader with s-off without having to wipe all of my data and everything?
[HTC Rezound] cdexsw:
There is no need to unlock. S-off is all that you need. It can do anything.
[HTC Rezound] Slacker101:
It actually would not let me flash recovery without having the bootloader unlocked again. It was disappointing and erased my data... grrr
[HTC Rezound] quepaso:
You need root to get s-off. The only people who had root were people on the shipped rom when the phone came out. Every OTA since has not had root, let alone temp root that the shipped rom had. So you absolutely need HTC Dev unlock to get s-off, and yes if you havent done it yet, it will wipe the phone. Thems the breaks.
[HTC Rezound] Slacker101:
Not what I meant. I already had s-off and it relocked. It then would not allow me to install amon ra. I was asking if there was a different fastboot command to just change it to unlock now since we have soff.

I didn't have to re-unlock.

I asked about this in the discussion thread but was never answered.

I just fastboot flash recovery .zip

and HBOOT flashed my roms boot.img and I was back with the addition of S-OFF

I've flashed several Roms since, while my HBOOT still says Tampered, Locked, S-OFF.

Finally, since I'm on ICS, I flashed the Juopunutbear modified HBOOT.

Everything seems to be open and working fine without re-unlocking.
[HTC Rezound] nujackk:
Not sure if you still need this but i just used the rezound AIO to flash amon again right after and worked fine no unlock. Tho I still have my bin file if I need it.
[HTC Rezound] crispybacon:
afaik if you did s-off and you're on GB firmware, you need the ENG Hboot to flash recoveries using fastboot commands, otherwise you have to use PH98IMG.zip's... but that's just what i see, i'm not 100%.
