I got an email from Optimum letting me know their app is available for the kindle fire so that you can watch t.v. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in trying to get this to work on the GNex?? I've been watching a few threads in some of the tablet sections but progress is slow and they are focusing on getting working on other tablets. Anyone want to make the GNex the first phone to get this to run??? I'm a noob on trying to get this to work and I'm not sure if a simple build prop edit will work? I've included a link to the .apk if anyone seriously will try to get this to work??

Thanks

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austriker27:
Hello,

I am trying to move my text messages from my blackberry 9900 that I was using to my new android (G2) that I have transitioned to. Has anyone done this before? I have done some searching on here, and on crackberry but cant find a solid answer. I did find a program "blackberry 2 android" that sounds like it would be perfect but it gave me an error message so I am awaiting a reply from the developer.

Any had any experience with this? I have never moved texts so I dont know how or what the exporting/importing process looks like.

I know there is this app/site out there, but I would rather not buy an app for a one-time thing.

Thanks!

Take the phones to your carrier and have them transfer it with their CelleBrite.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austriker27:
Oh really? I use T-Mobile prepaid in the us, think they can help? Do they charge ? Do they texts replace my existing texts or add to them?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelastemperor24:
I have no idea if they charge to do that. Most of the time anything you transfer to the new phone will overwrite/replace whatever is already there.

I am currently using eye candy 3.4 and was wondering if there was a way to get the keyboard sound that is on hashcode's jelly bean ROM ? I like the old-fashioned typewriter sound.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimCo06:
Yes, you just have to copy some sound files. The keyboard sounds are located in System-->Media-->Audio-->UI. I found the sounds I liked and copied them to my sdcard. Flashed the ROM I wanted to use and then replaced the sound files with the ones I liked. Coping the sound files seems to change their permissions so you will need to correct the permissions after you have copied the files into the UI folder. Reboot and you are done.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barch1982:
Thanks but for some reason I keep getting an error saying that I cannot delete the sounds on the ROM that I am using. I copied the sounds from Hash's ROM and tried to delete the ones from Eyecandy. Am I doing something wrong in the process.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimCo06:
Which file program are you using, I use Root Explorer. To delete system files you need to have R/W access to the files but the default setting is R/O. In Root Explorer there is a square button at the top of the page that switches you between the two. I am not sure how to change the access in other file programs, but I suspect that is what is causing the problem.

P.S. you will also need to have R/W access to change the permissions.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barch1982:
Thanks. I completely forgot about root explorer. Fixed.

Themers, mostly, what tools are you using to decompile and recompile the SystemUI.apk?

Every tool I used give me errors while "decoding file-resources" and "decoding values/XML"...

I just want to do some mods for myself, but I can't because of those errors...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] JoelChrist_:
I use apktool, but before you start modding/theming you should install the framework, there are threads about this, use search and type "apktool"

I think the framework part was missing. Thanks. Will take a look.

Great idea!

After the initial phase of testing the recovery and bootloader, it would be nice to know if/how it's possible to have a multi-boot menu on start with it.

I've posted some tips here in case you want to include it.

Fair enough. Didn't notice how much they actually overlap.
[Asus Transformer TF700] djR3Z:
I saw that one as well. It has a ton of good info, but a lot of it is general Android info and thread links. This thread will be my personal video tutorials or reviews for a lot of the things in this forum.

I also found that thread kind of hard to consume, but that's just me :/
[Asus Transformer TF700] wily5150:
How exactly do you use the root tool? I downloaded it, installed adb, is working perfectly, now do I install the .bat file on the tablet, or do I use my computer to run some commands ?

You run the batch file from your PC, which your tab is connected to it via USB.

[Asus Transformer TF700] pixel-painter:
I don't mean to be a **** either, but you haven't really posted much info in the thread, there are just place holders for info to follow. The thread title is misleading as I thought someone had figured out how to un-root the device.

It would seem to me that if you are going to post a thread with HOWTO in the title, there should be a HOWTO in here. ;)

Sent from my brain to my hand to XDA
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Unrooting is actually pretty simple, basically you need to remove 'su' and clean your system from things like BusyBox (if installed) from /system/bin/ or xbin and remove Superuser.apk.

But I agree that this thread is just no good at this point.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ishamm:
how would you go about removing SU and BusyBox etc, as i need to root my device to back up a faulty unit, then unroot to send it back for replacement. could you explain a bit more?

Updated the OP with my tutorials! To start with, I've got rooting, unlocking, and flashing recovery. That should get you guys going. I'll have more soon.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xPSYCHOTRONx:
I cant get the root method to work. I have a problem were even though the drivers are installed when i plug it in it says error installing drivers. then in "other Devices" in device manager it pops up with yellow triangle. But in "portable devices" it shows the tablet there. I have tried uninstalling the other devices version and checking drivers on the one located in portable devices and vice versa with no luck. Any suggestions?
[Asus Transformer TF700] icanfly77:
So unlocking the bootloader just allows you to install custom ROMS?

And rooting alows you to gain root access but do you need to unlock bootloader before you can root. Or can you just have the rooted kernel only and not bothering unlocking boot loader and staying on stock?

If you want to unlock bootloader and install custom rom do you have to be rooted or I guess custom rom will already included a rooted kernel?

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
The first part is correct. As to the second:

- you don't need to unlock bootloader before rooting, although you need to root to make use of an unlocked bootloader unless you intend to flash recovery through adb (I'm not sure if it works on the Infinity this way)

- you're not rooting the kernel, the kernel remains the same, all Linux/Android kernels have to allow root access, it's just that in stock firmware there is no "su" and rooting pushes it to your /system partition along with installing Superuser.apk (this one goes to data partition, as do other apps)

So basically you need to be rooted and unlocked to install custom ROM, but flashing any ROM or firmware will entirely or partially wipe your /system partition, where "su" is stored (nothing to do with the kernel). So you need to flash recovery from stock rooted ROM (stock firmware) and then most ROMs will have "su" included, so that you won't have to go through rooting process all over again with every ROM.

Hope this answers your doubts.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Let me see if I can organize things a bit as I think you might be a bit confused with lingo and operation.

Your system has basically 3 subsystems for you to worry about: Bootloader, Firmware/ROM, Custom Recovery. The Bootloader is the first thing that runs and controls access to the other 2 subsystems. If you want to change either of those subsystems, the bootloader has to allow it. Making the bootloader allow it is called "unlocking". When the bootloader transfers the processing to the Firmware/ROM, you can then run applications. Some applications require access to particular system resources that, by default, they don't have permission to and you don't have the ability to give that permission to them. For you to be able to give them that permission is called "rooting". When you "get root", you can give them this permission they require. This allows the system to do things that it normally couldn't do because resources are now available that weren't before.

So Bootloader controls how the Firmware/ROM and custom recovery work and "Root" controls what types of permissions that the system applications have access to.

Now, re-read what d14b0ll0s said as it is important. Hopefully, this information should get you in the right mindset.

I've run this rooting tool several times and I get zeros in the proper places, indicating that I have root, but after the last reboot, there is no root. What am I doing wrong?

I received the 26 update OTA. Could that be why I can't get root? is there any remedy?
[Asus Transformer TF700] SpitSalute:
After the last reboot, what gives you the indication that you don't have root access? Is superuser installed?
[Asus Transformer TF700] xPSYCHOTRONx:
Oh i didn't think about that. So its maybe the .26 update is the reason i cant get it to work?
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
.26 is not the reason. Many people have re-rooted using the debugfs method after updating to .26, including myself.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xPSYCHOTRONx:
I followed all the directions , i cant figure out why its not working. ill try to use another pc.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Some people have noted on the DebugFS thread that you might need to run Superuser before you can actually use it, or you might need to uninstall then reinstall superuser then run superuser for it to become available. Did you already try these post-install methods? Also, you need to have ASUS Sync turned off or uninstalled for the rooting process to complete properly. Just wanted to throw that in there.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Syn010:
ok got it working now after 4 tries.

I followed the directions in the video,

but also:

1) Installed and ran super user for a bit then uninstalled it because it hung the RootDebugfs.bat when I left it installed on my second try. RootDebugfs.bat will install it anyhow from its folder.

2) Executed the adb.exe file before RootDebugfs.bat (I must have missed that instruction in the video to execute adb.exe or perhaps it is not in the video???)

confirmed working with adaway which before gave m a "not rooted" error, now works flawlessly.

0.26 WW

cheers.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xPSYCHOTRONx:
Still no luck, i installed superuser ,ran it then tried running debugfs and still didn't work, i tried again after uninstalling it with no success. I tried what Syn010 had done and didn't work. ill keep trying to find an answer.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
I had unchecked asus sync in settings. I have installed drivers directly in my windows drivers folder. I have uninstalled /re installed superuser...everything seems to run correctly but even after a reboot, my root apps tell me I don't have root. I have run this with and without the dock, with and without my ext.sdcards mounted...I know I'm missing something simple. I am glad that it's not related to update to build 26.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
So does Superuser app report granting the root access to other apps? Have you tried the "su" command in the term?

If the problem is the earlier phase, [erhaps you should try not only unchecking the sync in the settings, but also killing asus sync on your PC if you have it installed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
I didn't have superuser installed when I started the debugfs. Which version are you using? Also make sure that Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Launch ASUS Sync is not checked and that Settings -> Developer Options -> USB Debugging is checked.

You seem to have run it enough times that everything should be setup. Docked or not / SD card or not shouldn't make a difference. Did you try running superuser? I mean open up the apps, hit the superuser app, read the little updates list, hit the ok button, and then try to run your programs that require root?
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Sorry for the bump but djR3Z, could you at least credit sparkym3 for making DebugFS on your tutorial site? Maybe also add a few links back to XDA where you got the information and the materials to get some recognition back to those that actually made the contributions. Just a suggestion.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xPSYCHOTRONx:
Asus sync is unchecked so it doesn't run, both usb debugging and allow other programs are checked. No matter what i doesn't get past Daemon started successfully. I am out of ideas. i will try it on my desktop at home in a bit.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
What system are you using? Also, did you try deleting the drivers from under safe mode before trying a reinstall of the drivers?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sparkym3:
I tried adding a comment to that page that is linked to in the OP for the root method demo to redirect them back to the original XDA post for help and updates, but it doesn't seem to allow comments (keeps hanging).

So, I second the suggestion to at least link back to this original post of the tool (may even want to add the link in this threads OP)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1706588

Also, if you do decide to credit me, I would suggest also crediting miloj since he discovered the exploit.

My final comment on this is that whenever possible you should link to the location to download the file instead of hosting that file since tools around here get updated all the time, and users are usually (not always) best off using the latest version with all the included bug fixes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Yeah, it looks like he's hosting an older version (or his own version based off an old version). Perhaps that's to go along with his video tutorial so that people don't have to worry about getting a different package than what the video assumes. In any case, I think there's gotta be some cred coming back to you (and miloj).
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
It's a more general problem of the copy-paste era - plagiarism. Good you mentioned it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
First of all, thanks to everyone that's trying to help me get rooted. As you know, each Android device seems to have its own quirks so it almost doesn't matter what my experience is with the other devices...I'm a noob with each new one.

That said, adb is working fine, I get all the way through the process..."congratulations! You've got root" I'm told. But there is no superuser or busybox in my app drawer, and root checker, tibu, etc say no root.

Asus sync has been killed. Adb is working. It's frustrating.

What version should I be running? There are several on a couple of different threads, and maybe there's something missing. Is there a way to do this manually? That's the way I rooted my Xoom...I've been so spoiled with all of the one clicks...
[Asus Transformer TF700] djR3Z:
Woah, thanks for pointing that out man. Completely forgot :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] djR3Z:
My apologies guys. If you check out my past tutorials/reviews you'll notice that I've always given credit where credit was due. I was just in a rush to get these out and it slipped through. No excuses, though. I'll add these in right now.

The reason I hosted it myself was because its the most complained about thing I've come across in the past - files hosted on sites where they have to go through hoops (links, ads, timers) to download. Not saying yours was like that, its just a habit of mine to make it easiest and quickest for people by hosting it on my site. I'm usually pretty good about updating when there's an update to root methods so it hasn't been a problem. If you'd really prefer that I use the original link, I'll switch it.

EDIT: Updated my post with credits to sparkym3 and miloj, along with sparky's donation link. Sorry about letting that slip, man.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sparkym3:
Sometimes it is good to have separate hosts in case the main location goes down (make sure to label the version you are hosting, I think it's 1.9), but my main point is that it would be good to have the link back to the main area so everybody can get the latest, if you do forget to update the hosted version (or there's a delay).

Thanks for making those updates and thanks for the video as I am not really into the tutorial video making.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Sure you can run everything manually, from the adb commands included in the bat file to installing superuser app and busybox. Run superuser, then run the term, use such and if it works it works, a question from the Superuser app should pop up.

However as you got a confirmation from the bat script, I don't think you have to go through adb all over again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
Well, I'll try running Superuser. I'll let you know if that works. Is there any other llittle thing I might be doing wrong, or not doing that could be messing me up?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Not sure. If the .bat script reports you're rooted, this normally means you're rooted. You just need Superuser app installed to allow it and apps that will make us of it. It's best to start with Terminal Emulator and "su" just to make sure.

Just make sure you're using the latest script for all of this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xPSYCHOTRONx:
Well when i got home i used my gaming desktop to give rooting a try. It must have not liked my work PC for some reason because everything worked fine the first attempt at home lol.

What CPU manipulation type programs do you all uses on your tablets? i noticed the ones ive seen only allow for change of frequency of only 2 cores not all 4? or maybe the companion core?
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
I had to install Superuser Update Fixer...ran that and it did the trick.

Thanks again for all your help.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
@okantomi: Well done! I'm glad rooting worked for you after all.

@xPSYCHOTRONx: As I treat the tablet differently than my Android phone, I'm leaving most CPU business to the power mode and the governor, I think they're fine for most of the time. However, many people prefer to use JuiceDefender and/or SetCPU (or perhaps CPU Master and/or Battery Saver, both by AnTuTu). You can see some more info in my battery and apps threads.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Wow. I wasn't aware that getting root could be so complicated. Do you think there should be a specific thread going over all of the different problems and solutions that people have had so that it would be an easy to get to reference? Not a necessarily a Q&A thread, just a thread of all the known problems and solutions and for the other cases that occur, they could create their own threads. Would that be helpful?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
I think it's a good idea and you're free to prepare such a list :) And I'll be happy to insert a link to it in my tweaks thread.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Lord Syrics Jr.:
Ok, I read asus' site on unlocking and how it will prevent updates. All I did was add root, so i should still get Asus' updates right? Just got this thing a few hours ago study for n00b question
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
Some people have been unable to get the OTA update applied while rooted, others report they had no problem. I think the underlying issue was probably that those who had problems had modified files in their /system partition. Most people report losing root after applying the OTA update either manually or automatically. Use OTA Rootkeeper, or just re-root afterward.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mdemons12:
Hi, is there any way to unroot after doing it with your method? Just curious.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sparkym3:
I'm not sure exactly what you are asking, but you can always unroot with ota rootkeeper.
