[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cruno91:
I'm not sure why but my stock gb rooted galaxy note (LB1) will recognize a connection to any of my computers when I use the samsung usb cable that came with my note. I had the same problem with the vibrant when I had one and I thought when I rooted the note that would take care of this problem but I guess not. I also tried connecting via bluetooth but 2/7 of the bluetooth device drivers refuse to install. Why does samsung do this? It will charge in the wall with any USB cable, but only recognizable to the computer if it's a samsung usb cable? How can I get around this???!!!

And yes, I have latest kies installed, and yes, I have tried re-installing and restarting both of my computers running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.

:confused::confused::confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richy99:
why does samsung do what? mine charges with any usb cable in the pc, the samsung wall charger is crap, i use my htc one
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cruno91:
My computers will only recognize my Note if I use the cable that came with it. I have several generic, LG, HTC cables lying around and none of them work with the PC and the Note together. They will charge in the wall, but nothing happens when connected to a PC. I just tried a cable that came with a Kindle and that seems to work fine for whatever reason.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splitroaster:
Lol that's funny as I use my kindle cable to charge and sync my note as well as it is twice as long as the supplied cable Samsung gave me. I keep that's as a spare for when I need to charge and I cant be bothered running upstairs lol

Why

Step 10: Select "Remove Android Kernel" (if the option is present, if not, skip) ?
[Gen9 Android Development] surdu_petru:
Hi!

It's OK !

..once you removed Android Kernel -> the second time does not appear....so the option is not present !
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Android kernel is "official" one and bootloader uses it by default (reboot= stock firmware is loaded)

Recovery checks:

-if stock kernel is present- option Remove Android Kernel is visible in SDE menu

-if SDE kernel is present- option Uninstall SDE is visible in SDE menu

No kernel=no option to remove it ;)
[Gen9 Android Development] tgkokk:
I have installed SDE using your previous guide (I haven't rooted it yet, since I'm still sceptical). Is it safe to remove it and install the official one? I remember one post on the other thread, which said that you can't add it again if you uninstall it. Here it is.

Also, can you unroot by just flashing the official firmware?
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
not sure where he got that from. you can always add it again if you've uninstalled it...official or nonofficial

Yes its always safe to remove the SDE menu, sde firmware etc. If you run into troubles, simply reflash official firmware. It's worked for everyone else. If you have SDE, then getting sde firmware is simple and safe. I'm not sure what you're sceptical about or what you mean "you haven't rooted it yet". you mean you have SDE menu, just no SDE firmware? if so, simply place archos.ext4.update on the root of your internal storage, then boot into recovery and flash zimage and initramfs
[Gen9 Android Development] zando2712:
I have since stated why re-installing SDE was not working.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1648538

One can always get SDE back after uninstalling.

Even easier, now that the official SDE .aos has been released.
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
yes. very easy, very safe. just dont blame us or archos if you screw up your tablet ;)
[Gen9 Android Development] zando2712:
Did you actually read what I said?

Never blamed anyone... was merely asking for assistance in getting root back.

Also was trying to clarify whether it was even possible because I tried so many times.

Followed your tutorial many times but it was just not re-enabling SDE.

Do not get me wrong... your tut is well written, I was just missing that part of plugging tab to USB 'after' it was turned on.

Like I said, with the official .aos there will be no recurrence, by me, or anyone else.

No need to be on the offensive :cool:
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
I apologize! that part "dont blame us or archos if you screw up your device" was directed at everyone not you. I did not mean to direct that towards you, you just misinterprated what I was trying to say. I was agreeing with you. sorry for my miswording :p
[Gen9 Android Development] tgkokk:
I tried rooting my Archos 101 G9.

I followed the instructions on the OP, but the new kernel didn't boot properly. It just showed a black screen. If I don't remove the official kernel, nothing happens. I have to roll back to stock ROM. archos.ext4.update does nothing. Could you please help me?
[Gen9 Android Development] surdu_petru:
Yes ...we can help you ...

First , please write here , step by step what you have doing until now !
[Gen9 Android Development] tgkokk:
1. I removed the unofficial SDE menu.

2. I installed the official SDE menu.

3. I downloaded and unzipped 4_0_6_update.zip and kernel_update.zip

4. I pushed archos.ext4.update to /mnt/storage

5. I removed the Android Kernel

6. I flashed the unofficial kernel

I did everything above twice.

I also tried with your (surudu_petru's) ROM.

If I don't remove the Android Kernel, nothing happens (expected).

I hope I gave you enough information.

Thanks in advance.
[Gen9 Android Development] surdu_petru:
Hi !

Thanks...

...but can you format your device ? see "Format System -> Reformat Device -> OK ! I understand -> Ok! ", than copy original .aos 4.0.6 firmware ....after reboot copy archos.ext4.update in /mnt/storage/ , reboot in SDE , go to " Recovery System" -> Developer Edition Menu-> Remove Android Kernel-> I Understand -> OK! -> Developer Edition Menu-> Flash Kernel & Initramfs -> and copy here zImage and initramfs.......I hope this help you !
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
Hi all,

It's this tutorial ok even for an Archos 80 G9 Turbo 250GB? Mine have ICS 4.0.3. (official 4.0.6 firmware).
[Gen9 Android Development] cajl:
Yes for all archos gen 9
[Gen9 Android Development] tgkokk:
I've followed your instructions precisely, but the problem still exists. Too bad I lost my files. I think it is over for me, unless you have another solution. In this case, I'll be happy to follow it.
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
Thanks.

I think I have a problem.

After step 1 ("enable SDE") when I'm trying to write the new kernel, it seems to nothing happened: I have "archos.ext4.update" in /mnt/storage and I've copied the kernel files when the drive that appears.

After restart all appear to be unchanged.
[Gen9 Android Development] surdu_petru:
OK!

Look what you can try : - remove official SDE , install 1 & 2 for pre-root , install unofficial SDE , reformat device, flash original archos ics than flash custom rom !

For step with files 1 & 2 - for pre-root device : ( first connect usb cable and enable USB debugging on Settings/Developer options)

- adb push 1 /data/local/

- adb push 2 /data/local

-adb shell

- chmod 755 /data/local/1

- chmod 755 /data/local/2

- ./data/local/1

- exit

- adb reboot

wait to reboot ...

- adb shell

- ./data/local/2

- exit

- adb reboot

wait to reboot ...

- adb shell

- rm /data/local.prop

-exit

********************************

Now you can try to install unofficial SDE menu , than go to SDE and reformat device ( you'll lose all data , but not sdcard) Recovery System-> Format System -> Reformat Device -> I understand -> ok ! -> copy official archos .aos ( flash official archos firmware) -> wait to reboot -> copy archos.ext4.update into /mnt/storage/ with command => adb push archos.ext4.update /mnt/storage/ , go to SDE menu -> Recovery System-> Developer Edition Menu-> Remove Android Kernel -> I Understand -> OK ! -> Developer Edition Menu -> Flash Kernel & Initramfs - copy here zImage and initramfs.cpio.lzo appropriate "archos.ext4.update" ( not work with any random zImage & initramfs.cpio.lzo !!! ) -> OK ! - wait to reboot => Now you should to have root acces ! If YES -> please try again the same steps with official SDE !

Good luck !

Hi !

It seams that you do not removed android kernel in SDE menu ....
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
Yes, but I don't have that entry in SDE menu.

L.E. Nevermind, I was stupid... :(

---------- Post added at 08:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 PM ----------

Stupid, but sadly, now I don't have hdd.

It seems the hdd is not mounted. What can I do now?
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
I do not have HDD model, so I do not know your problem and cannot help you. Maybe gen_scheisskopf knows.

I do not think this would help, he already has SDE, he just cannot get rooted firmware to boot.

Does official firmware work for you?
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
Sad.

How do I reverse the rooting and restore the original firmware?
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Flash official firmware (.aos file) in Recovery.

Shano56, I don't have HDD model either ;)

Tapatalked from Xperia Arc S
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
oh :/ well any idea how to fix dragos problem?
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
How? Where to download the official firmware?

In a terminal, after "su" I've tried an "mount /dev/block/sda /mnt/storage" but error: device or resource busy. :(
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
HERE- official Archos site.

1. Choose Gen9 on the list, download firmware and do not rename the .aos file- if you do file verification done before flashing will fail (and firmware won't be flashed)

2. Boot to Recovery, choose Update Firmware, connect USB cable to pc

3. New drive will appear, copy downloaded .aos file to it

4. When copying is done click Power button on the tablet to start flashing, do not remove USB cable

5. When flashing is done click Power once more to reboot the tablet

Did you try formatting it in Recovery? Seems that there may be filesystem problem
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
No, I've done only the steps from first post of this thread.

After the last step, the tablet reboot and after "the android is upgrading" the sistem was rooted but without hdd. "/mnt/storage" is pointing to a big void.

Also, in the notification area, now the hdd icon is always present.:(
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Wipe data (Reset Android), it's possible that some inner system settings may not correct (I had similar problem with SD card)
[Gen9 Android Development] tgkokk:
I'm sure Reformat Device affects /mnt/storage/. I've tried it before and it deleted everything on the HDD. Only Remove Android doesn't affect it. Anyway, I'm going to try it and I'll post the results.
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
"Update failed: (207)" :(

Now, my tablet is truly dead.

L.E.

Strange, after a new try, I have a new virgin 250Gb tablet.
[Gen9 Android Development] tgkokk:
Well, I tried rooting it with the unofficial SDE and using the temp root, but the problem persists. It's just the same black screen. Unless you have yet another solution (I really hope you have one), I'm done with rooting. Unfortunately, I've rooted my phone and seen the benefits of rooting. Too bad I probably won't be able to root my Archos 101 G9 Turbo.
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
Now my tablet don't enter to recovery: after a few secs it shows "booting android" and start to boot normal in ICS.
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
I'm glad it worked. Error can be related to some errors during copying .aos file to a ramdrive

You have to power down tabled completely, press and hold VolumeUp and then hit Power (it's more "sensitive" than it was on Honeycomb)
[Gen9 Android Development] DragosP2010:
Of course, I acted like you said. But now, after I rewrote the firmware, the tablet don't enter to recovery.
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
This is really strange.

Maybe you should try flashing from within the system- copy .aos file to HDD, updater should start by itself (if not- open the .aos using any file manager).

I'm still not sure why did you get the error previously, it may be worth to notify courville about it- HERE (or HERE)
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
if it doesnt enter recovery what does happen?

try powering off your tablet (10 sec power hold) and letting it sit for a minute, then hold the volume DOWN this time, and press the power for about 3 seconds while still holding the volume and see what happens
[Gen9 Android Development] philmein:
hdd version working fine with official sde
[Gen9 Android Development] Harfainx:
I always press the power button until the green LED comes on, then I hold the VOL - button (down) until the recovery screen comes up.

When I hold the VOL - before pressing power, it doesn't recognize the VOL button and boots normally.

[Gen9 Android Development] Elantric:
I have followed the instructions from page 1 of this thread, but I'm stuck on the following :

First - What is "ADB" ? - since I have a Archos 80 G9 4G (from Staples USA store) - I simply skipped steps 3-6 and went to step 6A

I find the instructions below very confusing, as they do not indicate when to connect - or remove the USB cable.

Done

Done - Question ? Do I remove the USB cable here?

Done!

On my machine I see:

Archos 180S-Boot Menu

-----------------------

Please select an entry

Android

Developer Edition

Recovery System

I move the volume up/down rocker to select a choice "Developer Edition"

and this "tap" the power button

I see

"Booting Developer Edition"

then I see a splash screen for

"SDE Succesfully Installed

With the Goat / Unicorn image

- for 10 seconds

Then the machine automatically reboots.

I never get the opportunity to see a special Drive folder with which to drag the files: " zImage and initramfs.cpio.lzo "

Never see this

I never see this

This option does not exist

[/QUOTE]

Mine is not - My machine remains with :

Firmware Version 4.0.5 (Android 4.0.3)

Really wanted this to work - but I'm stumped.
[Gen9 Android Development] Telyx:
Sounds like you don't have the SDE Menu enabled. You'll need to do that to be able to follow all the steps properly. (I also have the 80 G9 from Staples.) Do all the steps of Step 1 and try again, and you should have better luck.

ADB is the Android Debug Bridge, part of the Android SDK. It lets you connect Android tablets or phones to your PC to do development-type stuff including adding or deleting system apps.

Leave the USB cable plugged in for the whole process.
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
Yes you did not follow step 1. If you cant follow step 1 how do you expect step 2 to work?
[Gen9 Android Development] Elantric:
I think I figured it out

I had to remove the USB cable prior to step 8

then I had to select "Recovery" from 6 other choices,

THEN i could see the "Developer Edition Menu" ( I had only seen "Developer Edition" before - which is different

At Step 10, I almost hit power off - but instead I maneuvered to " Flash Kernel and Initramfs"

and i finally saw the new menu :

"Ram Disk created - connect USB cable and copy zImage and initramfs"

this is when I reconnected the USB cable and dragged zImage and initramfs over to the RAM drive (Im on Win7 64 for my host machine here)

I will advise that with the USB cable always connected - my device woudl Never leave the "Media Drive mode - and simply connecting the USB cable would force a power on condition.

I advise revise the instructions to root without ADB - and list the correct sequence to remove the USB cable.

I was getting no where with it always connected.

===

Step 7: Power off your device

Step 8: Boot into recovery by holding the volume rocker down and pressing the power button simultaneously

Step 9: You should now be in Recovery mode with the following options "No" "Reboot" "Update Firmware" "Repair System" "Format System" "Developer Edition Menu". Select "Developer Edition Menu"

Step 10: Select "Remove Android Kernel" (if the option is present, if not, skip)

Step 11: Select Flash Kernel and Initramfs

Step 12: Copy zImage and initramfs.cpio.lzo to the drive that appears

Step 13: Reboot your device. Your device should now be rooted.
[Gen9 Android Development] soundscape2k:
oops. I'm stuck

So I followed everything all the way to the end of step 6a and now when I try to boot the tablet it just stays at "ARCHOS Entertainment your way" screen forever. I wonder what I've done wrong...... its almost like the firmware is missing or something. yet, I copied it from my PC successfully using adb push. It did take 231seconds to copy to the device. Any ideas? much appreciated.

Update: I went back into recovery mode and upgraded firmware to archos 4.07 and now it boots prior to seeing Shano56's response below. When I run Root Check Basic it says "Sorry, this device does not have root access".

I will start all over and see where I can get with it. I know SDE is successfully installed (at least it was...).
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
Hi, please reinstall official firmware > http://update.archos.com/9/gen9/gen9_4.0.7/firmware_archos_it4.aos

You are sure you flashed kernel after copying the ext4.update?
[Gen9 Android Development] soundscape2k:

and prior to updating the kernel I went ahead and deleted kernel and rebooted back into recovery/SDE and flashed kernel an now it has worked and I have Root Access!
[Gen9 Android Development] haerwu:
One day I will sell my 80 G9 'so called Turbo but only 4430' for pennies and go for something with normal Android recovery.

Installed 4.0.7 from Archos, then copied ext4 file, rebooted, 'flashed' kernel/initramfs. Device booted fine and I got root.

Then rebooted device into boot loop...

Void warranty/watermarking

Hi,

one question: does installing SDE/rooting using this method irrevocably void warranty, as per the post by ARCHOS?

Regards,
[Gen9 Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
If you enable SDE "the Archos way" using Archos .aos file- it is most likely that your device will be watermarked and warranty for software will be voided.

If you enable SDE as LeTama did- there is no watermark for sure.
[Gen9 Android Development] haerwu:
