There's about half a dozen roms to choose from. I can't post links, cuz I'm a noob to xda, but the 8.9 android development forum has all the threads. Look for the most recent version of each and browse the threads to see what people thought of them.

I downloaded and installed (in recovery mode) the superuser 3.1.3 zip from androidsu.com. It worked fine.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Tekir:
You may have to back to ground zero - I did, after trying various useless suggestions found here and there. Fortunately that was easy since I did a nandroid backup right after installing CWM.

As a complete noob, here's what worked for me:

- Installed ICS with Odin.

- Booted and confirmed tab was working properly.

- Installed CWM 5.5.0.4 with Odin.

- Booted and installed SuperUser and Root Checker from the Play Store.

- Installed kk_root_ics.zip from the sdcard using CWM.

- Booted and ran Root Checker - reports root access.

YMMV - good luck!

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] mikosafalas:
Works for me. All "how to root" and the "root bla bla zip" didn't work since the upgrade. Using the unroot.zip from the other thread and hoping it will fix the problem and trying to re-root again with no result. Install the superuser from the playstore and still not fixing the problem. I dont know why the superuser.zip will gonna work but well why not just trying? And it works!

But i still confuse why it can works? Why we need the root.zip from specify device if it just need superuser.zip? If the Superuser.apk just a place to see what apps we have allowed or denied, and The su binary just checks the database maintained by Superuser.apk why can i root my device?

Sorry for asking to much and bad english haha. Thx anyway.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Da_Nuke:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace from Telcel in Mexico running CyanogenMod 7.2.0 stable, using Link2SD and ClockworkMod 5.0.2.7 (I think, will edit later).

As of lately I've been getting some random weird behavior with su. Every now and then, it will cause any app asking for root access to freeze, and after much wailing and desperate fiddling the only way I could fix it was by restoring a known-good Clockwork backup. It's been happening for about a week already about every 2 days or so and I am sick and tired of having to restore backups all the time.

Is there a way to manually fix su without having to restore an older backup? If not or if I am completely in the wrong, then just what is going on?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pseudonym:
Did you update su binary?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Da_Nuke:
Some time ago I updated my su binary to the latest version.

If this is the problem, is there a way to downgrade su? I have previously tried to look for a way to do it but found nothing.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] canibus13:
download superSu from the market . i was having the same problem and for me is work now...good luck
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Da_Nuke:
OK, I just tried running SuperSU. It didn't work, when I start it it says I should update my su binary and then it gets stuck forever trying to install it.

I can't do it right now because I'm at work, but I'm thinking about something like this to downgrade su:

Make a CWM backup

Extract the backup's system.tar under Linux on my desktop computer (not Windows because that would break the files' UNIX-like attributes).

Replace the current su binary with an older su from a previous backup.

Repack and recalculate the MD5 hashes

Flash the modded backup with CWM

Since it won't be until 8 hours later that I'll have a chance to test it, what could possibly go wrong?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prawesome:
Just replace it manually.MD5 might create some problems otherwise.Or have you tried that already?

[HTC One V] svaens:
Hi all,

I received a notification that there are updates available.... a dialog with title:

"Application updates available"

and question:

"Would you like to install the following application updates?".

Under this question, is a list of items which seem to be checked, but I am unable to uncheck (greyed out).

I wouldn't have thought about this at all, except I found it strange that the first item seems to be spelled incorrectly. It lists:

"Downlaods (Update)"

instead of what I would have expected "Downloads (Update)".

As this came from seemingly an official update for android, I would not have expected such an obvious spelling error. And it made me suspicious.

The other items are :

* Software Updates Agent (Update)

* Software Updates (Update)

Question:

Did anyone else get this update and install it? Is it safe ? How the hell did such an obvious spelling error get missed ?

Hi, sorry to dig up an old post, but I just started getting this message on my phone a couple days ago and was looking for some information on it. (Same notification icon, though I have not yet clicked on it.) The first couple times it came up, I went to the Google Play store and did have a couple apps that needed updates, but the icon didn't go away until I restarted my phone. Today I have the notification, but no apps to update in Google Play. Is this more of a system update thing? I have a T-Mobile MyTouch 4G Slide. Just want to make sure I'm not going to download a virus or something..!

If you have red lense defy you can and probably should use defy+ builds. This still requires 2.3 kernel because you would be using a defy+ build. Make sense?

Are you using International or US Galaxy S3 ?

Methods using Diag mode and software like SGS3-Exploiter-GeeK or QPST (Qualcomm Product Support Tools) are made to work ONLY with the United States variant of Galaxy S3 (based on Qualcomm SoC).

Now, I don't know software to fix International SGS3 without EFS folder backup (Sorry :crying: ) when nv_data.bin and .nv_data.bak are broken.
[Galaxy S III General] lozfromcorby:
I had this problem on my S£ (international) a while back. It happened after flashing cm10, I had a generic IMEI code. I f'd around with it a bit using root explorer and the EFS folder and the .bak files but this did not work.

I tried ktools etc. nothing seemed to work..

oddly enough, i got it back by flashing back to the stock ics rom via Odin, since then my IMEI has been fine after flashing JB roms.

worth a try!
[Galaxy S III General] lelinuxien52:
@lozfromcorby : I just saying they have not software to do that now on I9300. But I'm agree with you ! Sometimes, we can recover wrong IMEI when flahsing stock ROM.

Why do you care anyway when your device is working? You corrupted it so deal with it.
[Galaxy S III General] lelinuxien52:
I have seen that the Z3X box can fix all Samsung Galaxy devices excepted SGS3 !

I think you need send your phone to repair center.

But before, you can try this :

Save remaining files contain on your EFS folder. For that, use EFS Tool Pro for example :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1308546

Try this tutorial (with a full official stock firmware/kernel | Flash it with ODIN before trying repair) :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1264021

Caution : DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK.

If it doesn't work, you must :

- reset binary counter (with Chainfire tool : Triangleaway)

- perform total wipe data / wipe cache (from recovery mode)

- flash the latest stock firmware corresponding to your region

- verify the phone status : must be "Normal" and not "Modify".

[Galaxy S III General] spocky12:
I might be able to help you. Pm me your efs backup + partition backup made with efs pro. If the information is still present I should be able to recover it.

@can't see who in tapatalk :)

Could you tell me which ics stock room version helped you recovering your imei?
[Galaxy S III General] Chaitanyapatel8880:
I have a temporary solution for you. if you still have the backup of the the EFS folder in your internal or external sd card than follow the following steps,

1. copy ALL the files from the EFS BACKUP FOLDER.

2. go to the root of your your phone with root explorer of ES file explorer and find the folder EFS. it should be with all the system folders like acct, config,data,dev,efs,etc so on and on.

3. now paste all the copied files in to EFS folder. tap on REPLACE THE FILES if ASKED...

4. close the app. and go to the home screen and wait for few seconds.

if your simcard have pin than it will ask the pin after few seconds and if it doesnt have any pin than it will just get the network.

good things is you have your IMEI number restored and can use the phone like regularly. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL. WITH NETWORK.

bad thing is NEVER LET YOUR PHONE SWITCH OFF. If it will switch off than you will have to follow all the steps again... annoying but works... let me know the progress buddy... best of luck...
[Galaxy S III General] daindian:
Your other option is to to flash the stock rom but not let it finish. You will get a loop screen. Then just send it off for repair saying it doesn't turn on.. It will be diagnosed as a broken bootloader and fixed and the imei number will be back to the original. This happened with my old s1
[Galaxy S III General] exploit20:
No, I don't have a backup of the EFS folder :( I will try to send EFS folder to Spocky12 and hope that he can recover information... :(

History, this morning i noticed i was on edge all the time, I'm a daily flasher so I'm not really sure when this occurred but started searching threads and started to get very disappointed. I noticed quite a few people are returning their SGS3 because of this, but there is no longer a need.

On ATT this worked. W00t!!!

are you running the i9300 with the exynos processor?
[Galaxy S III General] Peoplearmy:
Two things...

First please look carefully at where you are posting and what you are posting about those links are for the US SGS3 Variants only and do not work on the International Versions.

Second, those links provides a way to restore IMEI but not network data. People will most likely still be stuck on 2g or edge network even after IMEI has been restored!

[Galaxy S III General] mseefrie:
I'm facing the problem that I'm using the international version of the S3 and lost my IMEI during flashing.

I have a backup of my efs folder which I made with EFS pro couple of weeks ago and now I'm trying to restore it without any luck.

EFS pro automatically detects the backup on my PC and I'm able to start and finish the restore without any error message - BUT

after the reboot IMEI is still null/null.

Does anyone know what could cause this problem?

I tried using Wanam's apk manager to decompile the framework-res/systemui of my rom and compare the xmls to those of JB roms, but I couldn't find where to change it. I'm thinking it might be something to do with SystemUI.apk/res/drawable/status_bar_item_background.xml or framework-res.apk/res/drawable/status_bar_item_app_background.xml
