A success zergRooting V10j???

It's encouraging to hear that someone got V10j rooted with a zergRush tool. I'm looking forward to any steps you can rediscover! I've tried rooting my V10j with DoomLord 4 over 300 times and it certainly seems like repetition isn't the trick.

Details ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have seen several people claim success zergRushing Android Version 2.3.5. This is the first time I've seen someone post about success zergRushing my Software Version, LG-P930-V10j-FEB-26-2012. The consensus on every forum I've found is that V10j patched the exploit that zergRush uses, forcing you to unbrick the phone before rooting. Unfortunately, unbricking is currently irreversible so you can't revert to stock and therefore can't get warranty service and repairs.

Encouraged by your success, I modded version 4 of DoomLord's tool to loop when zergRush fails (I attached the modded batch file to this post). It runs X passes. On each pass it starts DoomLord's script from scratch, attempts zergRush Y times and then reboots the phone. It detects a failed attempt by searching the output for a specified string.

My first 64 passes each made 5 attempts (320 total attempts and 63 reboots), considering an attempt a failure if it contained "[-]". Only attempt 5 of pass 26 broke the loop.

I suspect that a successful zergRush attempt will look similar to this result from a Froyo phone:

[-] Hellions with BLUE flames !​

The one time it didn't output "[-]" it just quit after the line "[*] Sending 149 zerglings ..." The remaining commands in the batch file all failed, and Root Check Basic confirmed that I wasn't root.

I just restarted the batch file with "[-] Hellions with BLUE flames !" as the search term. It's unlikely, but maybe I've been succeeding and our version of ZergRush outputs [-] in successful attempts. I'm on attempt 2 of pass 11 (57 total attempts). It's looking like simple repetition isn't the key here.

UPDATE: I killed the batch file after 50 full passes (250 total attempts). Every one of them ended with Hellions with Blue flames.

I just flashed a boot animation from the rom updater in blu kuban and my battery icon went from 50% to 20% after reboot, any ideas what it could be and how to fix it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stonesaber:
Mine does that occasionally as well. I don't really worry too much about it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Venomusdragon:
This is a very well known and persistent Samsung bug that is the same across the board no matter what rom you're running

sent from my SGS2 running AOKP, eh...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greeneguys:
You can wipe the battery stats using the script in the updater after a couple full charges you woes should be gone. It comes in handy if you flash a lot. Check the kuban updater scripts, download scripts then choose the battery one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Venomusdragon:
Also wiping battery data in mine and others experiences has not solved this

sent from my SGS2 running AOKP, eh...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gilbydakid:
Try going from 89% to 2% when changing your dpi setting in rom toolbox. O_o
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I noticed this happened a lot more with aftermarket chargers. Now I only use samsung or usb port to charge and I hardly ever see this anymore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jeffreycat:
Wiping battery stats does nothing for your phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
its a known issue.. mine did this the other day.. i am a flasaholic and sometimes i go overboard and my phone od's lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Known issue with many ROMs. Try this I've seen it work - Before you reboot put your phone into Airplane mode. Once completely restarted set it back to normal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] collinsac24:
Happens to me occasionally as well. Just a few moments ago went from 74% to 9% I hate when it happens but it's not that often.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wikedone:
OK I seen that and was like wtf! Thanks for the info guys gonna let it charge the use the **** out of it to drain it,then go from there
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] timmetal6669:
Ok, I will try to explain this best I can. While going through the framework and system on TW ICS I've noticed that there is a set of battery percentages. The cpu will monitor on a 1% by %. But the xmls and images correlate together with the system ui in a specific set unless otherwise altered. The battery percentages seem to be set as follows: 100,93,85,79,63,58,35,20,15,10,5,0. It may not be those exactly, but you get the drift. When flashing you can plug up and although it may not show its charging, it does. If you don't charge it can be hard on the system battery depending on what you are flashing or restoring. Because the system ui is setup with these "presests" it can "jump from one percent to the next. I've also noticed while testing that if I go from a alpha bare bones rom to my stable back up that the battery may jump up. I tend to agree that it is a bug in the coding on ICS, and wouldn't worry too much about it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wikedone:
Well explained thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rocket321:
Those are just the levels where the battery icon in the status bar change. After a ROM flash it is not uncommon to have the battery report inaccurately for the first couple drain/charge cycles. Usual fix is to fully charge, reboot phone, plug in until fully charged a 2nd time (will take a few more minutes). Looking at XML's and image files is not the same as looking at the source code...

Edit: I'm not trying to bash anyone here, I just want to make sure misinformation doesn't get started and then pretty soon everyone is repeating this stuff. Just like what happened with the whole "battery stats" incident.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wikedone:
I totally agree with you,just happened out of the blue so I figured I would get advice and you have provided that again I thank you. The mods can't delete this at anytime.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] collinsac24:
but there is still a problem that isn't being understood where the battery just drops whether you are flashing or aren't

Entropy512 has posted often on this subject. Here's one I found via Google ...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22917725&postcount=3

In a nutshell, what you are observing is the way the maxim fuel gauge IC in the SGSII line of devices "calibrates" the battery. Resets (reboots) can throw the gauge off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] timmetal6669:
Agreed. I was merely starting this is the first thing the user sees. I also agree it is inaccurate. I'm not saying that this is "why", just that thus us what I've noticed and that like you said after a few charging cycles it should correct itself so its (not something to worry about). I also encourage any user that is curious to read what entropy has on the subject.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darkendes:
My phone has done this one time where after jumping downwards by a significant amount it actually crept back UP. I joked to my wife that my latest flash added the ability to have the phone charge itself when the battery is low.

I searched through the forums and found some posts that said in order to use your external Mic you need a Y adapter. And that it doesn't support stereo, and some other issues.

Can someone link me to a Y adapter that would work along with a good value microphone that I can use during video recording on my Galaxy S III?

I'm surprised that a company hasn't made a product for this yet where you just plug it in and it works. The camera and video quality are great, but the sound is lacking greatly.

I was flashing ics roms from rocketrom, criseklo, some others, and i flashed 15 toggle theme for 4.04 but systemui kept crashing. I wiped in cwm ics kernel because someone mentioned not to use abyss for criskelo aroma install. I did some wipes couple more times before doing some more clean install but systemui kept crashing,

so I proceeeded to pc odin to flash gb rom.

and now my phone is stuck on samsung galaxy gt n7000 logo.

Please help!

I was on notecore kernel the last before this happened.

so far i can only go into download mode, and revert to gb on odin passes.

i thought they fixed the issue with wiping command for the latest kernels? is my phone bricked?

is there anyway to fix it? worst case scenario, how do i do the warranty step to get the motherboard replaced? i bought mine on amazon few months ago

Problem solved: Before I was trying to flash a pre rooted KJ1 gb rom, and so I gave a stock kka gb rom and it did the trick. So glad my 720 dollar phone didnt go to waste

I just picked up a Nexus 7 and was wondering if I can just use that 2A charger.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GldRush98:
No.

You can go under but not over. You risk damaging the phone's charging circuit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butikofer08:
Ummm. To the first response....your thinking of voltage not charging amperage. I might be wrong but I believe how much current your phone draws when charging is determined by the phone itself, not the charger. What you really want to watch for is a mismatch between the charger output voltage and phone input voltage, that's when the damage occurs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] animal24:
Your correct. The most it will draw at 5 volts is 1 amp. The best charger is the one that the phone comes with. If you want to learn more research ohms law and resistance balancing. Something like thevenin an mct.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] glennj99:
Yes.

The Nexus7 charger will be just fine charging the Galaxy Nexus. It will not damage it at all. I use a Kindle Fire charger to charge my GNexus. It can provide up to 1.8 amps at a nice steady 5Volts, but it doesn't have to provide that many amps to charge the Nexus - so it doesn't.

Its the voltage, not the maximum amp capacity, that is critical, cannot be too high.

It is usually OK to use a too low amp capacity charger as well, the charging just takes longer. Usually...some chargers are designed poorly. When asked for more amps at 5V than they are designed to provide they could fail by just providing less amps than asked for at 5V, which would be fine but slow. What else could happen is that the voltage provided could start to vary. It could start to take on the characteristics of the AC current it is supposed to be converting to 5V DC. This can hurt your phone. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butikofer08:
Moral of the story....the chargers that advertise half the charge time because they offer double the amperage are a scam/false. Just because they can provide up to that amperage doesn't matter, the device determines the actual current being pulled (I.e.--charging time)

You can also get an OTG cable then you can use the yeti :) and have digital hd stereo
[Galaxy S III Accessories] enz660:
would it work while recording a video?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] enz660:
If I find a mic with a 3.5mm jack can't I just plug it in? the ear buds that come with the phone have a microphone where the volume controls are and it picks up sound during video recording.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] oreo:
the headphone jack can only output a limited amount of power to drive a mic device, any non mobile mic is not going work. if you want high quality sound you must do so with the usb using either an external usb soundcard with analog 3.5mm inputs or just a usb mic like the yeti which is the best you can really get. and yes s3 has native support for almost any kind of usb device so it will work like if you plug in usbdevices to your desktop/laptop as long as it is Plug and play compatible. whether there are good apps for these usage scenarios though is another story.

oh and you are welcome...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
Good info, thanks. Looked up the yeti mic you mentioned, but it's kinda pricey at $109 and not exactly portable either. :) Do you use it?

(EDIT: too bad most jack mics suck)

Thanks! So something like this then would be good?

If anyone decides to get this for their s3 please tell us how it performs.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kthung:
Not really sure what you want a dedicated microphone for taking videos on a cell phone. If you are looking to make quality videos, you might as well get a decent external microphone and syncing up audio in post production. I know my brother uses this in conjunction with a 60D. Will probably sound a lot better than the $30 options posted above. http://www.amazon.com/Zoom-H1-Portable-Digital-Recorder/dp/B003QKBVYK/ref=pd_cp_MI_0

I Just order the Transformer Infinity and then I read this article

http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/24/qualcomm-snapdragon-s4-pro-apq8064-benchmark/

Apparently the Adreno 320 GPU in the upcoming APQ8064 is an absolute beast in terms of performance and frankly kicks Tegra 3 to the curb. Does anybody know how long one would have to wait for a tablet featuring this processor? I'm not sure whether to return the Infinity and wait for this seeing as how the T33 has trouble keeping up with all the pixels on the Infinity. Thoughts?
[Asus Transformer TF700] tweeklulz:
if news of this new tablet come out in the next 30 days my tf700 goes back to newegg
[Asus Transformer TF700] catalase:
engadget /2012/07/24/qualcomms-snapdragon-s4-pro-quad-core-dev-tablet-now-available/

Products with this chipset are already available. Note the pricetag: $1300. I can imagine that this chipset will be exclusive to Qualcomm for sometime, at least now that they are producing entire tablets. It's not likely that you'll see this chip in products from manufacturers other than Qualcomm for a while, and when you do, the price will make your wallet cringe. No buyer's remorse here.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gottahavit:
I just saw this too,but it's a 1280x800 display, and did you see the size of that thing? For that money and that bulk you can get an i5 tab with windows and far better performance. It does look promising for the future though.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
This is a developer tablet. Its intended for companies who build devices, not consumers. I guarantee you, you will NOT see any devices with this CPU for AT LEAST a few months... more likely than not, probably around holiday season. Besides, the Tegra 3 was in the Nexus so it'll have support for quite a while. I wouldnt worry about it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Keion:
The T33 does not have trouble with the pixels. It's ASUS's IO problem that's causing much of the stutter (like when installing apps) and what isn't fixed by ASUS with the IO fix will be with Jelly Bean in the coming months. Just stare at your tablet's screen and admire how pretty it is and watch your buyers remorse float away. Worked for me.

[Asus Transformer TF700] KilerG:
I agree, that's why I'm happy with my tablet and my phone.

Also, benchmarks are a horrible way to show which device is better. There's too many factors to why something would get a lower score.
[Asus Transformer TF700] californiarailroader:
Exactly! Benchmarks are meant to give you an idea, a starting point, and they can often be skewed to make the device being tested better than it is. Like my Nexus 7, it is scoring lower right now, but that's because it's running Jelly Bean and programs like Quadrant haven't caught up to that yet. I guess if you're wealthy, you can change devices weekly, me, I'm just Middle Class, aka an Endangered Species :D

[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
This. When the Atrix got CM7, it increased the score in quadrant compared to the stock rom by a little over 1,000 points. It felt smoother, yes, but not drastically smoother. If something works fine, why bother with stupid meaningless numbers? Devices with this processor coming out in ~6 months dont make the Tegra 3 any less of a slouch.
