How to reset custom binary download counter on SC-05D.

How to reset custom binary download counter on SC-05D.

Thanks to @sakuramilk for helpful infomation.

******NOTICE******

To reset custom binary download counter, we’ll flash a modified boot-loader.

That’s an action accompanied by much danger. Do everything at your own risk.

1. Copy a boot-loader to your SD card.

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 of=/sdcard/sbl1.mbn bs=512

2. Then you can see “sbl1.mbn” on your SD card. It’s a boot-loader in itself. Keep a copy in a safe place.

Open it with a binary editor and change the followings.

0007CE04: Change XX(Any value) into 00

0007CE08: Change 01 into 02

3. Overwrite a boot-loader.

adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/sbl1.mbn of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 bs=512

4. Done!

If there is something wrong, restore an original boot-loader.

How to unlock This Phone .. ?

because I bring from japan but can't use with other sim

Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dchn2:
I suppose you are referring to carrier unlock (or Sim card unlock) of your phone. if you're in Japan perhaps it's best to contact Docomo, as i understand they unlock phone for a small fee. there are other online services that can provide you with the unlock code if you give them the IMEI number, and that is also a charged service. i don't know if there are secret keys or hacks that can unlock this phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Does anyone know where we can find a list or data of kernels that we can flash (relatively) safely to the sc-05d? I see people on forums discussing various types of kernels they are using, but I have no idea if I can safely do it. I've been sticking with those released by sakuramilk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
We can flash various roms, but kernel is sakuramilk's only.

As you can see, every ported roms make use of sakuramilk's kernel.

If you flash i717's kernel, I don't know what will happen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Thanks for the info! I could have sworn I accidentally flashed a different kernel. Oh well, I must be mistaken.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
So now that we've all had the chance to play around with various ROMs, which do you guys find to be the best? I'd like to play around with Paranoid more, but it hates TSF shell
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] blaze0303:
I've tried most, and Slim and Liquid are the best for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Slim Bean and PARANOIDANDROID is popular.

But I use CM10 because it is stable.

Ports are available here.

It will help you flash various roms easily.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
I've been switching between CM10, sakuramilk's CM10 jp remix, and liquidsmooth. I'm anticipating liquidsmooth rc9

help

when i am using CM10,the vulume was too low that my friend always complain about it...dose anyone have this issue??plz help~~~
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] babotimmy:
anyone could tell me if it is possible to downgrade from stock 4.0.4 to stock 2.3.6 (SC05DOMLCE_SC05DDCMLCE_DCM.zip) ONLY using CWM r12?

Is it safe to use CWM to downgrade?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
It is also confirmed by some users in Japan.

The author of CM10 concluded it is because of the 4G(LTE) connection.

SC05DOMLCE_SC05DDCMLCE_DCM.zip is not flashable zip with CWM.

Extract it and you can find SC05DOMOMLCE_SC05DDCMOMLCE_SC05DOMOMLCE_HOME.md5, which is flashable with Odin.

Flash it and then Factory-Reset with an official recovery or CWM.

This way is safe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] babotimmy:
Thanks for the information!! Sorry for more questions... actually google doesn't help much for SC-05D...

Is CWM still "danger" (trigger emmc brick bug) for r12?

So the procedure is

boot in download mode > odin SC05DOMOMLCE > odin CWM > CWM factory reset > reboot ?

Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
No, CWM r12 is safe. You can factory reset, flash a zip, wipe partitions, etc...

Right:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] babotimmy:
Your reponse is TOOO great~~!!!

BTW, the LTE band selection page shows 7 bands explicitly (as attachment)

As Hong Kong uses Band 3 & 7, is it possible to use LTE band other than JAPAN (1?) ?

I tried selecting other band without luck...

any LTE Chip model info of SC-05D...?

Thanks~
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
The specification says it support only LTE2100 (B1) and LTE800 (B6).

As a matter of fact, I don't know in detail because I live in Japan and my home is outside of the LTE service area.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] babotimmy:
That's why the need for LTE chipset info :laugh::laugh::laugh:

I wonder the chipset is functional for 7 bands but just being disabled by docomo.

S-memo and TV function on CM9

As you know, S-memo and TV function doesn't work on CM9.

But sakuramilk managed to get them to work.

He has already put in requirements such as library files in CM9, but doesn't put in the apk files.

I think he was afraid of an infringement of copyright or something.

If we try on it by ourselves, the apk files should be deodexed and modified properly.

So is there anyone who is familiar with the android development?

https://github.com/kbc-developers/android_device_samsung_quincydcm/commit/bc250efdcd64d2870e19d3b3b6f7e37b3521372d

LTE is fuctional in Japan :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexilyne:
total noob here.i can't go to cwm recovery mode after flashing it with odin though.it always went to android recovery mode.anyone knows why?this is my first time rooting my phone so i really don't know it well yet.just moved from iphone to android
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dchn2:
Power off your phone. Now press and hold volume up and volume down buttons. Press and hold power button. The phone will power on and the "galaxy note" with progress bar will show. This is the moment to release the power button. A moment later the screen will refresh with CMW recovery logo. Once booted into recovery you can release the volume buttons as well.

Btw, if what you want is to root you phone and stay on stock Samsung rom, you can refer to this post for the Odin flashable files(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32881013). The guide you quoted is for replacing stock rom with a third party rom (though IMHO much better then what Samsung has offered, with better support from the community).

Alternative method is to enable USB debug and boot using the command "adb reboot recovery". It requires a computer with drivers installed for sc05d, and you'll need adb from google developer website. I know this is a lot of preparation for just getting to recovery, but it's well worth the preparation as you can push and pull files between phone and computer, and you can do adb backup and restore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexilyne:
i've tried using that method.go to download mode>flash recovery r12 file with odin>reboot>then go to recovery mode right?but all i get is android recovery mode,not the CWM recovery mode.is there something wrong with the step i did?i really want to try using a third party rom.

do you have like any link/step for the alternative method.i think i would be lost without any step-to-step tutorial.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dchn2:
The sequence is fine. The fact that stock recovery showed up meant CWM recovery was not installed IMHO. May I recommend to flash the cwm file again?

An easier alternative to boot into recovery is via terminal emulator if your phone is rooted. I recommend android terminal emulator by jack palevich, which can be found in play store. Run emulator, then type "su" (without the double quotation marks) and enter. Grant superuser access then prompted. Then type "reboot recovery" and enter. The device shall boot into recovery immediately. It works in my device, and I hope it works the same for yours.

PS I would recommend cm9 over cm10. Current version of cm10 has a microphone bug which make your voice really low and broken to the recipients of your call. Do follow this tread as the Japanese group of developers are actively improving the cm10 port, and they may be close to patch that bug, and I'm certain they will bring us good news here soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexilyne:
yes,finally after long hour of work.it's really good that i know how to read in japanese and found out that i just have to flash the 初期ロム(basic ROM?) first before flashing recovery mode.thanks for the help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Have you tried on CM10 version 20121215?

The issue might have been fixed.

i am currently using CM10 20121215.so far no problem yet.and i dont usually use the phone for call so i dont worry about the michrophone issue.so is CM10 the best ROM so far?how about others?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
How to fix the microphone issue.

One user reported the way to fix the microphone issue.

1. Flash a 4.0.4 stock rom.

2. Factory Reset

3. Flash latest CM10.

4. Factory Reset

I'm not sure if it is correct information.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dchn2:
not working in my phone. immediately after the lengthy procedure, there seemed to be some improvement, but further testing showed that the microphone remained pretty insensitive to sound and can't pick up voice unless i speak loud towards the microphone, and that makes the device practically useless as a phone. i love jelly bean and all its useful functions, but, at the same time, i need my SC05D to function as a phone as well, to make voice call. thanks for the info, anyway.

You can port only AOSP roms such as PARANOIDANDROID, KING-KANG and AOKP.

I used Titanium Backup to backup some game saves I had & found out not all of them got backed up so I have to start from scratch. I'm guessing some are saved on the internal storage is there any way of backing up those files?
[HTC Rezound] michaelbsheldon:
backup internal

If you attach your computer to USB, choose Disk Drive option.

Then, in Windows Explorer, you can see both phone drives.

One (the internal you want) may be named HTC STORAGE.

Either way, you'll see both removable disks, and you can copy them

off for your backup.
[HTC Rezound] SmithO77:
Ok but the one your saying as the HTC STORAGE is actually the Phone Storage. There's 3 Drives I see on the phone Internal Storage, Phone Storage & the SD Card such as the removable disk.
[HTC Rezound] michaelbsheldon:
3 drives

Yo, I've hooked up to XP, vista, and Win7 machines and only see 2 drives that can be accessed. Can you see data in those 3 drives you mentioned?
[HTC Rezound] SmithO77:
I don't see a Internal Storage drive
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
That must be a stock ROM setup??
[HTC Rezound] SmithO77:
Sorry for the mix up, I got confused it's actually a CD Rom drive. So is the Internal Storage part of the HTC Storage?
[Motorola Atrix 2] atlanticignition:
The command box that worked through the root on my laptop said the root was successful, so that isn't what I'm worried about. The problem is that when I go under preferences through Superuser and attempt to update the su binary, it reads the following:

>Downloading manifest... okay!

>Parsing manifest... okay!

>Latest version... 3.0.3.2

>Checking installed version = legacy

>Fixing database... okay!

>Checking for busybox... not found

>Downloading custom busybox... okay!

>Checking md5sum... okay!

>Checking current install path... fail!

>Failed to find currently installed su binary.

>Update cannot continue

If anyone knows what to do, that would be great... Thanks!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
It looks like its not installed properly, or you're not rooted. The install path should be system/bin/su

First make sure you're rooted. Try this little guy: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck

Or if you have a terminal emulator, type in su at the prompt. If all is well your prompt should change to a "#".

If those fail, re root using the method here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1396650

Good luck! Let us know how it goes!

It won't recognize that my phone is connected to the computer. Any suggestions?

Yes. Turn on usb debugging and allow unknown sources (I think it works with/without unknown sources) <-- both in settings>applications

And put it in charge only mode when you plug it into your computer.

I was curious to see where superuser was installed in my device, so I checked Root Explorer and it was in system/xbin.

So, I moved to system/bin/ and now its saying I'm not rooted when trying to open root applications! Say wha...?

:confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] mtnlion:
Did you set the permissions? With superuser I always found it better to adb push the file then chmod it.

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

here taken straight from the tutorial. I think originally given by the jedi master Jimbridgeman.

type the following commands

---> adb shell (only type this if you are no longer in shell@targa)

---> mount -o rw,remount /dev/null /system

---> cat /data/local/su > /system/bin/su

---> cat /data/local/Superuser.apk > /system/app/Superuser.apk

---> chmod 4755 /system/bin/su

---> chmod 4755 /system/app/Superuser.apk

---> reboot
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
Moving apps around in root explorer never and I mean NEVER works. Always use ADB to push pull chmod, etc apps.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Still not sure how to work adb or Android sdk, but I'll find the tutorial (hopefully, and surely there's one in here somewhere I can understand!) and try that out when I get home. Thanketh ye!

That's not true. You just have to do it right..
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I downloaded Titanium Backup, haven't been using it but want ti back up apps for easy recovery after flashing new roms, etc. When I opened TB, it gave me a message about the superuser binary using "non-optimal options rights" and the choice fir TB to fix them itself.

I clicked okay after it said it was successful and rebooted, then opened TB again and same thing. What rights or permissions need to be given to su that I'm missing?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
It does the same thing with me man. I haven't noticed any difference. Selected yes and it asks me again next time also. TB always works properly though. I've used ita ton too lately.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Thanks. I won't worry about it again after clicking "no" when it asks to optimize su rights. :cool:
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
I used to get that all the time too..

There's an option in Preferences>GUI Preferences to turn that warning off.. but mine doesn't pop-up anymore and the box is still checked. I thought it went away with the latest su binary update and reboot.. but not sure
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Okay gang, one more question about superuser: I flashed the (updated) Bullet rom zip -which includes all three updates now in one "full install" zip, and checked su location. I see it in both system/bin AND system/xbin. Should I do anything about this, I mean, it seems redundant to be in both folder locations. But, I don't know. (?) :confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
The one in /system/xbin is a link back to /system/bin. It is for legacy compatibility. Don't change anything!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Noted. Thanks Jim! :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] RowanOak:
I had a few issues with superuser giving me some weird results, programs erroring etc. I downloaded SuperSU and haven't had any more problems.

Is that the paid version of su? How is it any different?
[Motorola Atrix 2] JUGOMAN:
No it is free.... And it does work!!!
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Nobody actually answered your question...

Superuser is by ChainsDD, and I think it's the original root permission manager.

SuperSU is similar but by Chainfire.. and I think it came after.

I've only used Superuser, so I couldn't tell you the difference.. and, yes they are free, but there are paid versions of both.

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Next time, you might think about including the information you noted, that would have helped out, in trying to figure out your issue, the amount of info you gave, was not much help, just that you were running the ICS leak, and thought you had an issue, but this really was a non-issue, because TIBU itself has actually has the issue, and you HAVE to tell it, to "ignore" that, and not show it again.

Not trying to be a jerk, just trying to let you know, it is kind of like this quote "help us help you", the more information you include the more helpful all of us can be.

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Cheesecake will NOT work with leaked ROMS, there is something in your build.prop that denotes this. You will not be able to check for "proper" updates until you go back to stock.

Are you having any other root related issues? Does root explorer work as it should? That is a real easy one to test.... so far it sounds to me as if your root is not installed correctly.
