Hi all,

No chance! :cowboy: I don't like to spend hours installing Windows and all this stuff again !!! :crying:

Basically what Linux can to Mac OS X can do. :D At least regarding adb and the command line use. The problem is I have found tons of good information about how to do it using Windows, but nothing for Linux nor Mac.

OK, here is the answer. One can root the Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 using Mac OS X only! :cool:

Developing in next message...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shrijith1:
Thanks a lot friend. I used the same procedure to root my TF101 using Ubuntu :) Are you using any Customised ROM ? I am using CM10 based ROM built by RaymanFX and it is simply awesome :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fry-kun:
Thanks, that worked nicely for me!

One thing I can't figure out yet, though, is how to do a backup - the microsd card doesn't mount at /sdcard/ and backing up to internal storage is not recommended...

Wheelie

Hi!

A linux only solution for B70(+) devices can be found here:

http://androidroot.mobi/2012/05/27/introducing-wheelie-nvflash-for-asus-transformer-tf101-b70/

It is what I used twice so far. Works as it should.

I do not claim credit for anything! I just stumbled upon the solution.

Problem rooting

Hi,

this is my first post on XDA.

After a lot of readings here, I think I have tried everything I could, but my knowledge in rooting is too limited to understand these bugs:

At first, when I tried running these lines on the terminal, I couldn't push the files to /data/local: permission denied.

Then, I tried pushing to /sdcard/ and it worked.

But the next error I get is when linking:

"link failed Function not implemented"

Can you help me please?

My computer is a Mac, so I have tried you method first. I also tried on my Parallel Desktop with Windows 8 and on the PC with Windows 8.1 of my girlfriend, with RootDebugFs.

Here is the description of my Infinity pad:

model: ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T

Android: 4.2.1

Kernel: 3.1.10-g9827b9a, android@Cancer #1

Build: JOP40D.WW_epad-10.6.1.14.8

I had the build 14.10 but I found that I should downgrade to 14.8, so I did, but nothing changed.

I also unlocked my tablet by mistake, thinking it would help rooting.

Thanks for your help.

Best,

Yohan.

Just did this!!! Still works!!! Followed your steps. Now the recovery is TWRP 2.5!!! As the peri version changed I checked if the .bat was still doing the same things, and it is!!

Thanks for your tuto! Saved me some time installing W**** ...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Wumpus13:
So basically, to save time, I will cut the story time and get to the point. Basically, right now my phone is able to boot into the STOCK recovery mode, but has no ROM installed. when powered on with just the power button, the samsung splash screen shows, then the screen goes black, and thats it.

I am limited by the fact that the stock recovery requires a signed update.zip package to execute it, and have tried to get things to "sign" my own packages but it has not been working. I have the CWM ver. 3.2 update.zip and it was working before with a modified stock recovery that did not check for signatures.

So far it seems there is not a single ROM out there for my phone that is signed that I can flash. If someone knows of one that will even let me get rom manager installed and get things sorted that way that would be awesome! That is really my last idea here, not sure how to flash a new recovery from the terminal or using odin or the android SDK or whatever.

any info is appreciated!

EDIT: most all of the links for useful downloads here are to multiupload.com......which just re-direct to a spam site!! :(

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooe:
Okay, this seems just another common GPS problem with a DHD. But I find it intriguing.

It happens to me since I bought the phone, second hand.

I've already made the mod to the antena (soldered wire) and use the AGPS Patch and FasterFix to choose the server. Nothing solved it.

So, when the GPS works, it works really fine, no abnormal signal loss, not too much lag.

Note that it only works fine when I turn data ON, so it can download agps info.

There comes a day when I turn data on, go outside, turn Sygic on (or other gps program), and no satellites at all. GPS Status indicates the same.

I can go for more than 15 minutes without gps fix. It can go for longer, but I don't have the patience. I reset the AGPS info with GPS Status and download a fresh one and the problem remains.

If I restart the phone, 99% of the times, it solves the problem.

Now, I found out that a program called Quick Reboot (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...Glub3NvZnQuYW5kcm9pZC5RdWlja1JlYm9vdEZyZWUiXQ) avoids me having to restart the phone. Plus, GPS Doctor is quite efficient too.

So, I have to run Quick Reboot, then GPS Doctor, then Sygic or other Nav Program. Not very handy, if you're already driving...

Now, what on earth is this?

Hardware seems fine, because it doesn't fail, for example in a 300 km trip. If it gets a fix, it stays on nicely.

It sounds a software problem, deep in the OS itself.

I'm on Android 2.3.7, CM 7.2, but tested this on various CM based roms, ICS, rooted OEM ROM and it behaves the same.

If anyone can help... or share experiences... Any devs? :confused:

Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ai6908:
I dont think it is going to get any better than that. I have the same experience as well with ICS ROMs. However, some ROM's dont do it so often.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commando0:
i have same issue on default rooted rom wwe3.12.405.1.....

it may be problem with some specific models or all od dhd series

and its very random and happens on trips mostly

agps /wifi/mobile data nothing fixes it

restart fixs issue instantly ...

once after restart gps gets fixed it works perfectly ...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerL:
I have this exact same problem, and I'll try your tip for using the Quick Reboot app.

I'd also recommend the app AGPS Injector which enables you to start GPS based apps e.g. navigation etc. 'via' AGPS injector. It automatically downloads AGPS info before starting the navigation app. You can even create homescreen shortcuts for navigator apps which do it all with one click. Perfect!

I'm going to try combining this with a Quick Reboot using Tasker, again so that it does it all with just one click. I'll report back if it works.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooe:
Yep, automated steps would be great, like:

auto data on / agps injector / auto data off / run gps program

or even

Run Quick Reboot / quit Quick Reboot / auto data on / agps injector / auto data off / run gps program

:silly:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooe:
Just got a total GPS blackout an hour ago, and the combination Quick Reboot + AGPS injector (bought the full version) didn't worked for me, despite 5 or 6 atempts.

Then gave up and just went for a try with Quick Reboot + GPS Doctor and got it working without rebooting. :good:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerL:
Sounds like I need to try GPS Doctor. I've had good success with AGPS Injector. For me, I spent ages trying to find an app which gave the same results as using the AGPS reset and download in GPS Test, and that did it. Maybe there's some regional variation.

Do those apps just force a download of the links in the gps.conf file?

Have created setups using Tasker which I'll try tomorrow. Also found the app Fast Reboot which does a similar thing to Quick Reboot, so I'll compare the two.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooe:
Yes, could be a regional variation.

Don't really know what the AGPS info download does.

I've used that Fast Reboot Pro program, but didn't do the trick for me.

new to rooting, flashing, etc.

Tried flashing CyanogenMod 6, I believe, using ROM Manager app. I downloaded the ROM to SD card and followed instructions to install. Now it's been stuck booting for an hour. I tried taking the battery out and going into recovery but it just gets stuck at the Odin screen with 'do not turn off target' message.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks everyone.

I'm not sure what version I attempted to install. It could've been CM9/10...

I did root the phone prior to doing all of this. I did as you suggested: go into recover and wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and fix permissions and when I reboot the phone, the Samsung logo pops up and vibrates, then nothing. I keep having to take out the battery to restart.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tonymtl:
You can go to the tread I posted before, download and flash with odin stock rooted rom it should work. It did for me.

Flash the rom twice, then see if that works.

Usually in rom manager it detects your phone and WON'T let you dl a rom not specific to your phone.

Hey guys, if for some mod has already been mentioned just go ahead and delete this thread. I did a search and didn't find anything on it.

I take no credit for doing any work on this. I just want to post the file I used and let everyone here know that I've flashed it to my sgs4g and it seems to work like a charm. I have tested it and confirmed working on the 8/30 cm9 build and I believe it will work on most ICS builds.

This is a flashable zip to get Google now working on ICS builds. I used it on my Galaxy S2 without any problems and just flashed and tested it on my sgs4g and everything seems peachy.

I've attached the file I've used, but can't remember the exact thread I originally retrieved it from. This thread appears to be official though if you'd like to see what other versions are available.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29756226&postcount=2856

If op of the thread is actually the person that created this mod then all credit goes to him for being a genius.

This is the mikey6 offline with dictation. You can read more about it in the link above. I've tested out the basic functions and everything seems to work well.

Installation:

Backup

Install zip using CWM or TWRP

I wiped cach/dalvik

and fixed permissions just for good measure (may not be necessary)

To use just hold the search button and select google and if it works for you just tell it to select every time.

I've tested weather and navigation so far.

[EDIT]

Sorry I can't attach the file due to the 8mb limit, but if you use the link above I installed the M6 version.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Ok so I just got myself an SGS3 I9300 off e-bay, it hasn't arrived yet but I'm just curious to know will it be locked to the Orange Network? I had it shipped to my uncle in England who in turn checked it out and then sent it to me in Greece, he told me when booting it up it had an Orange boot up logo. He didn't have a micro-sim to test it. I'm also quite a bit of a noob when it comes to Android so I was just wondering if anyone could point me out to some ways of getting rid of the Orange boot logo plus if needed a way of unlocking the phone to any network?

tl;dr Got SGS3 hasn't arrived, might be locked to orange, want to know how to get rid of orange boot logo and how to unlock carrier lock on it if it has it.

Thanks for any help posted! :)

~Nik
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kickasskev:
Yes it will be locked, unless the person previous who had the phone had it unlocked.

There are sim unlock tools on XDA which you can use
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikArchangel:
Could you or anyone else that reads this possibly link me to some tools to unlock the phone? I had a bit of a look and found some information about something called Voodoo unlock. Digging a bit deeper I found out that it's outdated though? Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance!

Edit: Also to mention the previous owner had not even taken the phone out of the box so no he hasn't unlocked it.

i flashed the wrong rom, an international version GT1900 instead of the sph-i7***, however; i can still boot into download mode but odin does not recognize my phone in download mode. when i chose to restore backup from sd card, it says it cannot mount the sd card because of an error. when i try to push the recovery rom thru adb, it does not recognize the phone either. so, my question is, did i hard brick it, if not, is there a way to fix it, i tried reformatting the sd card with another computer, no luck.

Are You Concerned about scratching your camera lens?

I made a VERY simple mod on my battery door. No more scratches after leaving my phone on the table.

Now the lens is about 1 to 1.5.mm under the battery door.

How to

:

You need: 1. Electrical tape 2. Scissors 3. A Battery door.

Cut small pieces of elcectrical tape. Put these pieces of tape around the lens hole on the back of your battery door.

Pro:

1. Fewer chances of scrathing your lens.

2.Phone still fits in every case and bumber.

3. Cover, since so flexible, will still hold on to the phone.

4. Almost Free and Easy removeable.

5. You tell me.

Con:

1. Use to much tape and the cover won`t stick.

2. More wear and tear on the battery door.

3. Make sure there are no glips.

4. You tell me.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] cuhrazy:
Just be careful with it like that. Dirt can prolly easily get under the door now.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] UXELLR:
Good point! Yes, always good to be safe :)

I've had it like that a couple of weeks. There is no glips between cover and phone.

Be sure to not build up too much. Most important is the area next to the hole of battery cover.

You can also use this mod in combination with a piece of screen protection on the lens.

Funny thing is i went to nexus after having the rezound. Nexus was great but random service drops got me sooo annoyed. So i bought a gs3 yesterday. Little do you know a jb leak with radios comes out and i havent dropped service yet. Now my nexus is a great phone. But i might return my gs3 maybe not i like newer toys. But great review. The rez screen beats both imo tho
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I turned down the Nexus and went for a GSIII. That and I heard the III had better battery life so I figured "why not?" I don't think a leak has come out for the GS3 for Jellybean. Well, one has for the T-Mobile version but not Verizon's. Glad to hear it helped you out, though. And thanks! Yeah. The viewing angle and sharpness are better, but I love color depth, so I'm sold. First time I pulled up Power Amp on my GSIII my eyes were in love haha. The main theme is black with blue trim so it looks stunning.

I think this would be more appropriate in the SIII forum possibly, if people wanted to find out more about the SIII i don't think they would go here.

Some people just automatically think that because a thread is about a different phone that it's the worst thing in the world, even if it is to inform people. You're probably right, though.

[HTC Rezound] dplane:
Glad the OP likes his new phone but I always get the feeling when I read things like this whether the person is trying to convince him or herself rather than us that they made a good purchase. Don't get me wrong, I think we all have that need especially when it comes to electronics. It's funny to see how the GNote2 blows the GS3 out of the water already so shortly after the latter's release and if the rumors are true about LG's next superphone it seems like we will only have to wait a short while before the latest Galaxies are a distant memory again. If only I was a celebrity..I'd show my face on each and every one of these new device announcements just to get the freebies.

I think we all knew how this story, ahem review was going to turn out. I doubt a flagship device such as the SG3 was going to lose out in this comparison. Just the fact that its a shiny new toy wins it a few brownie points. That being said I think the rezound still holds up well after almost a year since release, and now that we have kernel source and fully functional AOSP on the near horizon our little device has never looked better :)
