Before I start this

If there is any problem in this thread, please let me know

I will check this thread often and if there are any problems, I will remove it as requested.

what I like to talk about is basicly about rooting(not going to ask how to root)

I got interested in rooting and researched littlebit to understand the basics.

I've seen different posts about rooting through voodoo, odin , superoneclick

and lagfix kernel(not sure spelled right)

here are some questions

First, what if I ROOT my device via Odin, then is it possible to UNROOT via other ways(voodoo, superoneclick)?

Second question is about way of rooting

so far, I know three ways, voodoo odin and superoneclick.

do different ways effects differently on the device after root?

[ex) a device rooted via Voodoo can change the theam,but device via superoneclick cannot.]

and either it does or not, which way would be the best for CHARGE? (less possiblities of brick, easy to root & unroot, and performances)

Third question is about kernel and lagfix.

I am a little confused about the relationship between kernel,lagfix and rooting.

The posts and threads I've read, most of them were doing lagfix with rooting via Voodoo and Odin, but not superoneclick.

is it not possible to lagfix the device with a rooting through superoneclick?

and are there different lagfix with different performances?

which one would be good for DROID CHARGE?

the answers for those questions do not have to be answerd with full describtion.

I mean, it would be great

but, I will be still thankful just by a link with a word "READ" or "'GO"

YES or NO is acceptable

Collecting grammer is not acceptable

Thank you if you read all of my broken grammer

Simple view if you get headache by reading my horrible writing

1.Is it possible to ROOT with ODIN, then UNROOT with Superoneclick?

2.Do different way of ROOT(Odin,Voodo,Superoneclick) affect different on device after rooting?

3.Possible to lagfix with superoneclick?

4.which way of rooting is best for CHARGE?

5.which way(type) of lagfix is best for CHARGE?

6.anyother tips?

7.should I write this in Q&A?
[Verizon Droid Charge] gkgkgksla:
to me, it seems like superoneclick is the easiest way to root

but do not know how safe it is.

I mean, archemy a smartphone into a brick is mostly mistakes from owner isnt it?

wait, I cant understand what I am saying.

Im stopping here, before I make more questions.

Started to root.

read different thread, but decided to follow the one thread on the android cahrge development

used ODIN 1.85

got the phone into downloadmode, and successfully flash the CWM via ODIN

I see green, but when I reboot ans tried to get in to CWM recovery mode

samsung logo blinks and nothing happened

if I stop pressing power+volume up + home button, it just goes to regular android recovery mode

because it did not worked, decide to redo, so I've done same steps about 3 times

so Im also worried about installing same CWM for multiple times

my phone is 2.3.6 guess its gingerbread

and recently turned into FP5

so Im trying to roll back to FP4, then try again
[Verizon Droid Charge] Reilly1812:
Before flashing CWM you should rename install-recovery.sh in folder /system/etc/

CWM should now stick once flashed.

Still Charged Up
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
When booting into CWM after flashing in Odin, let go of the power button after you see the first samsung logo (keep holding down the volume up and home buttons). Once in CWM, mount system and flash the SU binary to gain root. When you reboot use root explorer or a similar app to rename or change the permissions of install-recovery. Sh. If you don't do that the stock recovery will rewrite CWM.

It is okay to flash CWM several times, your phone won't break because of it. :) make sure you're booting into CWM directly after flashing in Odin.

Hello,

I recently rooted my EVO LTE and was looking to install a Custom ROM.

I used this method and this Video:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1690919

I put the Latest Mean ROM on an External SD Card and then opened the Team Win Recovery with the Quick Boot App.

Once I got into Team Win Recovery, I deleted all the Data, Cache, and etc and I was not able to locate the Meanrom.zip file.

I could see all my files except for the Mean Rom Zip File on my external SD Card, I mounted it and saw that the Mean ROM file was in the SD Card.

Then I turned off my EVO using the Reboot Option on the Team Win Recovery, but now when I turn it on, all I see is the HTC Quietly Brilliant Screen and I cannot turn off the phone. Can someone help me return back to recovery and help me install a custom rom?

Thanks

Have you tried holding volume down and power to get into the bootloader? Also, if you have adb on your PC, you can type:

adb reboot recovery

...to get into recovery.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
You wiped everything the phone needs to boot. So it will not boot into the android OS.

Use the button combo to boot into recovery and flash a ROM.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] emtchrisbishop:
There is a small option in TWRP. When on the screen to pick your file to flash, make sure the appropriate option is checked (internal storage or sdcard). It is right above the files to choose. Hopefully that is what is wrong.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
If you are trying to install the latest MeanRom you must be on twrp 2.2.1. If you are not you will most likely get errors or the install will fail. Mikey has put together a great rom, but with the addition of Google Now the rom has grown to 615mb. For some reason the older versions of twrp seem to choke on that large of a rom. Also, you should be on the latest firmware. Good luck.

So I finally (hopefully I think) figured out the external antenna port type. Now to shop for an antenna.

My question is this, I am going to need an antenna specific to the 1700 MHz band correct? Or will a dual band 800 1900MHz antenna work? Cause isn't 3g on the 1700 band hence why att phones don't work? But is 4g on the 1900MHz for T-Mobile? I don't know if my area has 4g though. But anyhow am I right about the frequencies?

Hi,

I searched the forum but i couldn't find an exact answer.Two weeks ago i rooted my phone.But after that i heard that the firmware update can't be done with root.So today i unrooted my phone and disabled cwm and supersu.Still i can't do an update because everytime it stucks in cwm recovery mode.I'm so confused.Is there anyway that i can update the firmware without flashing.Can you please give me an advice?Thanks.

Download odin and the latest stock firmware (go to the general section, they're all there), and flash via download mode.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 123shree:
root again, back up all the apps, back up your personal data (like sms, call logs, music, photos,videos stored in the internal memory) and then flash the stock ROM in Odin.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
It is not necessary to wait for OTA. Once the latest firmware available at sammobile, download it and backup your apps with titanium backup and flash the firmware with odin. Later just reroot and restore your apps using titanium backup.

Actually im ok with the root.But when i want to update the firmware it ends in CWM mode.I couldn't find a way to update the firmware with root.As ı understood if i want my apps and system data back there is no way to be unrooted and able to update the firmware.

You won;t be able to update over OTA when rooted but when you do get the notification about a new update, you can use kies to update, you won't lose apps and settings but you will lose root.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
Since the AOKP from Times thread got closed at his request, and that CM9 hasn't gotten any updates from what I've seen, are the ones available on XDA the only AOKP and CM9 roms, or are there other builds by other devs on sites like Android Central that are more updated than the two on XDA? I've tried searching but I haven't found anything. I was hoping someone else had found one. I do not want a Touchwiz based rom. Strictly AOKP, CM9, and possibly (if it's still alive somewhere) ParanoidAndroid.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
CM9 is getting updated daily, sometimes multiple times a day. Alpha 6 was probably worse than the nightly the day before and the day after it if you ask me. Many people used it because it was marked as an Alpha. The current focus is on getting rolled into the official CM build process and fixing those last remaining bugs and issues. Providing long term testing to a build and labeling it an Alpha/Beta... not so much.

You have 2 avenues for up to date CM9, both you should ask or test to see what works best for you. ShabbyPenguin auto compiles Nightlies and now they are based on Chris41G's source kernels starting 8/02. 7-17 was the last good FF18 repacked one IMO there was a few after that. All in all there have been plenty of stable nightlies that could have worn an Alpha tag.

Chris41G is doing a ton of development both rom and kernel and wrapping up issues does builds as well. His 8/9 was great which brought the 4G problem fixes from the control 12 kernel test. The 8/10 MergeMe build was good as well and came within hours of the previous. Machete (8-14 or 8-15) I have been running until I switched over to AOSP Jelly Bean.

Sbrissen is working a stock AOSP Jelly Bean while PhantomPhreak is working on compiling CM10 from source. Everyone is pitching in on both of those.

Dunno on AOKP so much but the Paranoid port was managed by TCP wasn't it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
CM9 is still going strong. Right now we are getting multiple builds per day. Are you sure you even looked for it? Its in the original development section for this phone.

CM10 is also starting to kick into development too but currently has some bad bugs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
For PA, I think it was. But I think he gave up on development and and had his thread as well.

As for CM9 nightlies, where can I find them?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
After milestone 6 official aokp was rolled to jb from ics, I'm not sure if they are officially building ics based aokp or not, milestone 6 was pretty much a solid bug free source the only issues left that I have come across were strictly kernel related, so i would consider milestone 6 a stable release, minus it needing a solid kernel which I believe Chris41g has a pretty stable aokp kernel out that can be flashed over the aokp rom. There is a stable release aokp based on milestone 6 on android central called aokp milestone 6 stable release 2. And yes cm9 has nightly builds regularly, and chris41g's builds. Then there's AOSP jb and cm10. I'm waiting for the aokp jb builds to start up

Machete if its still up on chris's site is probably a good one to go for since I havent kept up in 2 days. Previously nandroid backups were not working but i believe that was fixed by then. 4G bugs have been fixed since 8/10. Storage locations have swapped up closer to proper for CM9/AOSP but weird for Touchwiz and CM9 Alpha. Thats been a focus of development as well.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Sucks you abandoned aokp I was hoping you'd dropped the ics version to start the jb version of it. I started on aokp on my og evo, jumped on it on the et4g as soon as TCP started the ports and then when your source builds came out I moved to them, I'm still on your 7/13 build and haven't changed roms since. I guess I'm gonna have to stop being lazy and actually start building my own roms again :eek: I've been trying to figure out how the PAD mod works so I can merge it into aokp but there's not much about it anywhere so that's a whole other can o worms I've been trying to nail down. And it makes me :banghead: guess I should start pulling an updated source and find someones vendor tree to merge and build my own aokp once I get bored with trying to get the PAD working(or figure it out since I'm slightly ocd and don't usually give up easily, I decide I want something and I'm like a pitbull with a tbone :what: )
