I flashed the T999UVDLI6 package to my phone but cannot seem to Root now. I have tried everything that used to work and Superuser will not take. has anyone else flashed and succeeded in rooting?

Here is how I got here:

I tried to update using CWM and it failed

I reflashed STOCK T999UVALH2 and then updated using Android Recovery and the full update worked

I have tried flashing via Odin 3.04 like always and the CWM mod will NOT take- all I ever get is the Android Recovery

Interestingly, if I try to flash Superuser from SD card using Android system recovery it gives me an :E:signature verification failed" message.

Any thoughts?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
You must be fully stock and also have stock recovery... When I did it I used mobile Odin to keep root, and but you can use ota root keeper
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Fonz:
So because I had CWM recovery it failed?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
Yea
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fishguts:
Rooting after upgrade

I've flashed and succeeded in rooting, I did the same method as you described. Except I'm using Odin 1.85 not Odin 3.04 :cyclops:

Also, did you try doing a full wipe? I didn't see that in any of your steps. Might want to try that if you haven't already.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Fonz:
Wipe-o-rama

Yes- I wiped everything possible (data/factory reset, cache partition, and Dalvik Cache) and Odin would not load it which is why I ended up using the Stock Loader. I will have another crack at it :eek:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fishguts:
Hmmm

Okay, I retraced my steps and everything still works fine for me...so I did some things to break my phone a bit to see how this can fail, and came out with a few results.

Using Odin, uncheck the "Auto Reboot" option, I think this ROM will reflash to stock upon reboot unless disabled, it's a "feature" found in the Galaxy Tab 2 also. CWM 6.0 will take care of that, as they ask you to disable that "feature" upon reboot from CWM. Now, in order to get there, you need to go directly from Odin mode to recovery. So here's what I did exactly to get the results that you are asking for:

Using Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP Recovery), I wiped dalvik, cache, system, data, and factory reset, and then I opened Odin, unchecked "Auto Reboot" option, flashed T999UVALH2 back to stock, rebooted into android recovery, factory reset, reboot back into android recovery, flashed T999UVDLI6, and then rebooted into android recovery, did a factory reset, and rebooted into Odin mode, where I kept that same box unchecked, and flashed TWRP recovery. After it flashed, I unplugged my cable, and rebooted directly into the custom recovery where I flashed SU. Booted my phone and I have root access with JB. Now, if you don't want to use TWRP as your recovery, then you should use the latest version of CWM.

I was typing this as I was doing it, so I know for sure this works. At least, for my phone it does. Good luck and I hope this helps!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Fonz:
Awesome. Thanks for taking the time to troubleshoot for me. I will try today and report back
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jksloan:
Please clarify

I am fully stock and using stock recovery and I am getting an error regarding :E:signature not being valid when I try to flash. I have applied OTAs that my phone received in the past. Dose this mean I need to revert back to the default firmware image also or is there a different issue? Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
I've been flashing OTA leaks with CWM. Both ICS and JB. I don't lose CWM recovery. This process is a lot easier than some people think. I have never needed stock recovery to update to the OTA leaks.

1) Stop using CWM v5. Its time to upgrade to v6.

2) Get T999UVALH2 on your phone. Whether you have UVALEM and use the official OTA update to UVALH2, or do a full install of it. You need UVALH2. I personally still had a UVALEM nandroid, so I restored then factory reset. Then backed up the clean install. Then I ran the OTA through the phone settings > About phone > Software updates. Now I had UVALH2. Guess what? Nandroided that, too.

Also, make sure you flash the UVLH2 modem if using another version.

3) If needed, get CWM on there through Odin. Or if you got a prerooted version, get CWM on there through other means.

4) Download the OTA update here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=SGH-T999&pcode=TMB&os=1&type=1#firmware

5) Flash update with CWM. Upon exit, it will ask you about recovery and root.

Now you have the new leak, CWM recovery, and root.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Fonz:
CWM 6 did the trick. Still rooted and running JB :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toozie21:
Tried searching the forums, but came up empty. Is there a way to add an external WiFi antenna to the Nexus S? Is just as simple as getting an antenna with the proper connector and plugging it into the port on the back of the phone (under the two back plates)?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozone89:
If you're talking about the small connector right on the side of the top-right corner of the battery, I think it's a connector for GSM antennas, does anybody knows it's for something else?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toozie21:
Yep, that is the exact one I was talking about (can be seen below in this ifixit.com picture). OK, that stinks, I thought that it might have been for wifi testing. The trace for that connector seems to run to the bottom of the board to those metal tabs, which seem to run to something in the case (which I assumed was the stock WiFi antenna) right at the bottom of the phone. If that is GSM (which is entirely possible), where is the stock WiFi antenna, because the only other antenna I could ID was the NFC antenna in the center of the outer case (sitting roughly over the batter).

<<edit>>

OK, I don't have enough posts to add a link to the picture, but if you go to ifixit's website and type in Nexus S, click on the first link that comes up, click on motherboard, and the scroll to the second page, you can see it in the third picture down.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozone89:
I'll add some more spare infos to my answer :)

That connector is an SMC one, and it's been used since, uh... maybe always :)

In most cases it's hidden under a little round cover, which pops out by levering it with a needle.

Noticeable example of such a concealing are the old SonyEricsson phones, where it's also used as a mirror if a front camera is present (see w810i) and LG cookie K500
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toozie21:
OK, thanks for the info. SO the money is on it being for the GSM rather than the wifi, right?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozone89:
Yup.

It's also the most logical thing to do.

On a phone, gsm is way more important than accessories like BT or wifi
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrangerWeather:
I am currently trying out Glazed Jelly Bean which I really like. I have one slight problem: I get this pop up saying "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped". Nothing actually happens and the device carries on functioning perfectly. Is there a way of fixing this? Using the emulator perhaps? Or do I have to do a clean install, which I'd rather avoid? Thanks for any help!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jon565G:
Hi mate,

You could extract the systemui.apk from the glazed jelly bean ROM and push it the system/apps. This will replace the old one, It might fix it.

It shouldn't delete any data, I've changed it multiple times on my Arc and it never deleted any of my data :D

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Surprised no one said yet....but clean installs are always recommended. If you dirty flash you may have problems. Most won't get into helping trouble shoot much until you've tried a clean install.

Titanium backup along with an SMS backup app if you care about saving msgs really makes a clean install fairly painless. :)

BTW, if you dirty flashed over a different rom, then you're lucky that's your only problem. Can have major problems dirty flashing over anything other than a previous version of the same rom.

Sent from my cell phone telephone....
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrangerWeather:
Last September, when I had this problem, I had done a clean install, and I did several clean installs of Glazed, + tried what had been suggested, but the problem remained. Eventually, I went for a different ROM, which was a shame, but then the problem stopped. So yes, clean installs can help, but not always...:)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Totally agree ....but kinda sounds like you dirty flashed over something other than a previous version of the same rom. That's a pretty huge no no! Lol

K...noob moment too.....didn't look at the dates of this thread. LOL.

Nvm

[HTC One X] kanay2000:
Okay, So I tried flashing back an RUU after I relocked and changed the phone to stock recovery. But now its stuck on the "sending to phone" for the past half hour!!!

Please help me, I dont know what to do now :( Its not like I can take out the battery and start again :(
[HTC One X] kanay2000:
Okay so I tried another RUU (lower version) and got error 140 - Bootloader version error :(
[HTC One X] kanay2000:
SOLVED

Okay, so after attempting a third RUU, I restarted the first one and it worked!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dylerium:
I'm using the vzw galaxy nexus and no LTE and I still only get 2 hours of screen on time. I'm using 4.1.1 stock ROM and Franco 228 jb kernel. 1300 max 700 min. I also have the extended battery. What a am I doing wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Exodian:
You can try turning screen brightness down, check your apps and see which are battery consuming, turn off any auto syncing, unless you play intensive games you can scale back the CPU. That may help some.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThunderStick:
This is average battery life on the galaxy nexus. Check to make sure your not synchronizing your email or social networks to often. Also pay attention to your data connection. If it is poor your device will be constantly seeking for a signal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackhand1001:
Set the clocks back to stock. I find Franco kernel to be smoother on the 1228 max speed. Set the min to 384.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dannejanne:
Really depends on what you do with the phone and how high brightness you have set. You can get more than 2 hours from it. You should be able to anyway.

My screen has been on for 2h3m as I type this. 23h14m since last charge and I have 39% battery left now. I think about screen brightness though and adjust it manually all the time when needed. Also screen-off at 307Mhz and max at 1Ghz.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
That is not average.

He has to have rogue apps running, bad signals, too much stuff pushing, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquelt:
I am getting 3 hours of screen time with 14 hours of battery on 1344-384-alpha56 kernel.

max 1344 min 384 governor interactive brightness auto

It is great for me like this...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Winesnob:
You can maximize screen time on WiFi. Mobile data drains in the background, making your screen time appear "substandard".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gm007:
If you all noticed that he has 700mhz as min so it's normally to drain fast.

Lower the cpu to min 350mhz and use lux auto brightness from play store to control the brightness.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
I've gotten two days of standby life WITH 2 hours of screen on time.

So if you're only getting two hours screen on, you should be going at least a day or beyond on standby.

Otherwise, I can pull 3 to 4 1/2 hours screen on, I used to pull consistently 4 hours+ but whatever is new in the kernels or ROMs is stopping it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
I get the same thing . Why is galaxy nexus battery so terrible ? I upgraded for better battery life not worse
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
Rarely get more then 2 hours screen on time. Lately it's been much less. Screen brightness is a big factor, if you make your screen really dim you can brag about long screen times.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrianDigital:
Hows your signal during the day look at your battery graph it its mostly yellow or worse red. That would be a drain too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] speedyink:
I'm with this guy. Around 2 hours screen time after 2 days (turned off while i'm sleeping).

I would expect more if you still have to plug it in at the end of the day. What apps are using the most battery? (as seen in the battery section of settings)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MizzouBrent:
Most I have gotten is 3 hrs screen while on WiFi with the extended 2100 mah battery. And that was with no calls or music. I average maybe 2 if I'm lucky. I seem to get a fair amount of drain on 3g no matter the radio. Switched back to the stock 1850 mah battery to see if it treats me any better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blame2:
Right now I'm at 2hrs 19min screen time. 13.5hrs on battery. 29% battery remaining. Auto screen brightness. I run mmuzzys toro jb 4.1.1 with stock kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fire n mage:
Use leankernel i just got almost 4 hours screen on time for the first time with this setup on stock ROM stock battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donsh00tmesanta:
On WiFi?

-----------

iphones are the creation of people with nowhere left to turn
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fire n mage:
Yea only short period of time i had it off. screen shot. Reason my entire life sucked is cause i was redownloading multiple apps after the switch to stock. But your extended battery should fare well, also, be sure to turn off NFC and the cell broadcast alerts unless you really want them.
[HTC One V] vjays:
Can we Update any Custom ROM OTA? as same applicable for stock ROM where we gets update notification & it does update itself ?

coz i just worried abt latest updates which aren't always readily available for custom roms in Cwm format,where in stock rooted ROM the update can be done by temp. unrooting & flashing back stock recovery.

So, any1 understand or gone through this issue plz help me forward to proceed .
[HTC One V] Lloir:
yes i will be implementing my roms with GOOMANAGER which will say when a rom is offered OTA
[HTC One V] vjays:
hmm! thanks for the reply dude!

bt i need to know now is bcoz all custom ROMS available are having v.2.22.xxx.x, & in India i've stock updated with v2.24.xxx.x, So can i get/apply the same update OTA on any custom ROM or ur cm9 also now?

if yes then how?( it would be AWeSomE.) :D

They also don't mention the dimensions. I may be in the minority, but I find the amount of storage fine and probably wouldn't trade a millimeter or two for an SD card.
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] Closed Source Project:
I don't know how people can say LCD is better than SAMOLED or any AMOLED. LCD is older technology that looks washed out and sucks more energy.

The only thing this phone has on our is an SD card slot. But we still have the leg up since we're running Android. I have always hated Windows phone or mobile, what ever they call it now.
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] glaudrem:
The only thing I really miss is the HD display. AMOLED shows better and more realistic colours but a bit more of pixels per point would have been very nice (like Xperia S)

I wonder why nobody here already mentioned the extreme lack of internal memory: after the first startup of the phone only less than 1.3 GB of the 4 GB are left! Considering that Apps (+ their cache), Browsercache, Emails (+ attachments), Maps etc. cannot be moved to external SD card makes this device pretty much useless.
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] The Jones:
Useless is a strong word. But it is a real pain and a big mistake by HTC unless the ability to put more stuff on your SD card is coming. The Lumia 620 would appear to be an obvious choice despite its pathetic battery.

This is not a bug or missing feature by HTC but M$ doesn't allow any user data or apps to be stored on external memory - for security reasons.

[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] chch:
I own an 8S and yes RAM is an issue.

Also when you read the phone help (on the phone) there is blurb by HTC about how many apps and phone tips do not work on WP8 devices with less than 1gb RAM.

try to find that on their web site.
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] IzaacJ:
I can understand MS way of not allowing apps on the SDcard, but they should allow the apps Isostore to be put on the SDcard. That would make more sense.

They could even make it possible to have a part of the SDcard to be a part of the internal memory, like on WP7.

Lack of Storage Windows 8s

good evening guys, just wondered if anyone has any tricks to enable apps to be installed on the SD card of a windows 8s phone, instead of filling up the internal storage?

Nice phone, but when you enjoy xbox gaming on your phone, the storage is all but useless.

I'm going to be sending the phone back tomorrow, so before I do, if anyone can make any suggestions, would be appreciated.

Currently using my HD2 phone with Windows 7.5 ROM from this site, being able to use the SD Card to install apps is priceless.

thanks guys, great work as always, wish I could do what you guys do,

I also bought an 8S yesterday, and the 1.2 GB that is available, is a problem. If I will buy navigon europe, will it fill the empty space completeley with its maps?

Also, I am missing a compass...

In general, I like the phone, but the internal storage should have been 8GB, and the compass sensors should have been present.
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] pk913943:
Agreed. I bought Navigon Australia for my HTC 8S but the app won't install because it keeps giving an error message stating "there is not enough memory space . . ". The files and map require 717.91 MB and I have 1.20 GB free space. Either there is an error with the app or the app is not suitable for the device (in which case the store should not have let me download it!).

It seems that after a reset of the device, navigon is able to download maps, but only 6MB remain in the device.

Why cannot navigon change their app to load maps from the SD card?
