[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beffie2000:
Hi all!

I was just wondering...

Can i root, or use some adb commands, fastboot, etc from like an asus transformer to flashor root some other phones or other tablets?

If this is made posible i don't have drag my netbook to my friends or work to flash&root their phones.

And if android is allready there i suppose adb fastboot ps neuter drivers are allready available?

My asus tf300t rooted hydro rom

My htc desire hd rooted cm7 rom

Both have an command prompt app.

So if i wanna root like an htc sensation, can i connect it to my phone&tablet and use the commandprompt fastboot to push the recovery and root to the sensation?... And why not? Lol

Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
Wrong forum....this is for Desire HD and not sensation. Anyway, the guide in my signature will help you as an insight for flashing and rooting HTC phones. Make sure that you check Sensation forums before applying something. The tools for the Inspire / Desire HD might brick your device if it is not an ACE...:good:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beffie2000:
Sorry forgot to mention i do have an desire hd (ace)

So let me ask it in other way... can i root my desire hd with another desire hd?

If i buy a cable that will connect both phones to each other...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
I have absolutely no idea how you would do that; if you figure it out, you're significantly smarter than I am. AAHK is so easy to use (as long as you read the manual carefully) that doing what you're proposing just seems unnecessary.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beffie2000:
Lol i have no clue either...

But why do we still need windows, linux to crack, hack, modify our android devices?

It would be so much easier for me to use my dhd as an device that is able to root,modify other phones, instead of a windows laptop

I think that android is an full OS, so why not use that.

It would be fun to open the commandprompt on my dhd and connect another phone to my dhd and root it, install recovery etc.

I know it cant work..but why not?

When i connect my dhd with the usb cable to my asus transformer they wont pair either. Its to bad i really would like that to work. So i can copy my music from tf300 2 dhd or dhd 2 tf300 without windows or wifi.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
You will need a PC to root your phone...you can´t do it with another Android device.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beffie2000:
To bad.

I wanna get rid of all the desktops and laptops, and only use my android tablets and phones.

But i will keep them for awhile longer. Till someone develops a tool for android to connect to android.

Thanks glevitan
[HTC ChaCha] TH3KiD:
Hello guys, I need the stock facebook apps of htc status/chacha. I currently have a custom rom which has sense but not the facebook apps.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
I am currently on the Jellybean 4.1.1 stock rom (poland release) on my i9300.

I have an annoyance whereby if you are browsing the internet for example and the screen times out. pressing the home key wakes the device up but minimises the app (this case the browser)

On CM9 rom this does not happen the device wakes up but the last app is displayed and not minimised. Is there any mod to replicate this on the stock 4.1.1 Rom? I am rooted.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cy4n1d3:
Yea i dislike this 'feature' aswell.

On my good old SGS1 this was working as well...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bordikun:
I think it's a bug. ICS ROMs normally ins't like that. all we can do is wait for another update on the Jelly Bean ROM

also tried formatting my SD card to my 2 S3's same Poland JB ROM it will just eject the card ang remount it, it will not format the card :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Can anyone esle also confirm if this is a bug? If so is there any fix or mod that can be applied?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beaver2233:
it is evident in all jb leaks so far, yes. Jkays mod fixes this, however it also adds a lot of other features you may not want. Not sure if there is an individual mod/fix though somewhere.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bordikun:
just use the power button for the app your using before the screen goes off will not minimized :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Thanks, do you know where I can get jkays mod from I read on another thread its not ready for s3 running JB yet?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
I know this may sound stupid but I wanted it to work from the home key its just more natural.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krs360:
There's an alpha version for JB here.

Didn't you say on another thread a minute ago that you're on CM9?!?!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Thanks, I have been switching between CM9 and stock JB and have 1 annoying issue on each so wanted a fix before deciding which one was going to be my daily driver.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dantheman122:
Yeah it's definitely a bug, but it only does it for some apps, not sure why. It was in CM10 for a bit at the start then someone patched it out, not sure what they did exactly. I haven't noticed it for quite some time but I don't use stock browser, I'm running Siyah Kernal, maybe GM patched it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
So are you using JB 4.1.1 or another Rom? It happens in FB and all other apps I have tried?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PilgrimToHyperion:
This annoyed the hell out of me too but I finally found a solution that works for me. Get Widgetlocker (lockscreen app). Once installed, run it, tap the settings icon, go to advanced, homehelper, then enable homehelper component. Now apps that was open before screen was off, are still there when unlocked using home button. Hope this helps you.

Btw. running Omega 27.2 in case you wondered.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dantheman122:
Yep JB 4.1.1 or Omega 27.2, and dualbooting with Paranoid Android JB too, both seem fine now.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Installed jkays framework and this has resolved the issue, providing there is no major bugs in this framework I will contnue using this. I know its an alpha but from what I have seen so far seems very stable
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alvaretto:
I had the exact same problem after flashing checkrom based on XXLIB. This version of checkrom is a "Naked Base" which means a lot of samsung apps are missing... BUT it has the option to flash all those missing apps and functions using one package. After flashing the said package this was FIXED. After that I could press the home buttom after screen timeout and it turned screen on without minimizing the app I was using.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmartama:
I have same problem with ARHD 11.2 (Android 4.1.1 / I9300XXDLIB), so it seems to be JB related. It don't matter what app I am using, they all do the same. Very small but annoying problem.

The ROM utility cannot update your android phone.

Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.

Is it because I used AAHK to originally ROM my phone and now I am just using a direct RUU to unroot?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reinaldo33897:
You have to use Ace Hack Kit to unroot. Flashing the RUU will not unroot your phone it may cause issues instead.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
That is weird. If you are S-OFF you should be able to flash any RUU as should have superCID. There is something strange there. Do the following please. Plug the phone with usb debugging and open a cmd in the PC as admin. Then type:

adb shell getprop

paste here the INFOmain version and INFOcidnum. Also make sure that you are S-OFF.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidboy81:

Ran the command above in the thread and the 2 bits of information requested where not in the command output. What does that mean?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidboy81:
Thread can be marked as solved.

I put the first 2 lines from the bootloader into google and a thread on android forums came up.

Advised go into bootloader then, connect phone select fastboot and then run ruu. I could see fastboot but didnt have the option to select it. So I blindly ran the RUU and boom it worked.

Thanks for all your assistance.:)

Hello I am looking for the samsung sidekick spell clock widget, is it available to use with other phones. I have search and found the apk but I am unable to install it. kindly help.
[Android General] aze2learn:
Hi all,

A friend of mine sent me his 'Made in China' phone branded as Micxon SX5 (I believe it is a brand name sold in Indonesia). It has 512mb RAM/512mb ROM with GB 2.3.6. I managed to pull the boot.img including other parts of the rom. With it, I managed to rebuild its scatter file, root and mod a CWM 5.2.0.6 tested 100% fully working (able to backup/restore/write new zip/factory reset)

Since there's nothing about this model here yet, I decided to share my work so that others with same model can continue to work on modding/remove bloatware/etc. Do take note that this model only has 512mb NAND and no EMMC (normally 4GB) versus other mt6575 models so, upgrading will be limited (unless someone can come out with slim rom) but you can always come out with custom rom ;)

Please find below files useful for your flashing/rooting/mod purposes:

1) SX5 Micxon scatter

2) CWM 5.2.0.6 for SX5 only (credit to CWM team for the source)

3) Root - use the official Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed-bin from here : http://androidsu.com/superuser/ - flash via CWM recovery

4) Original boot.img

5) Original recovery.img

To flash the recovery.img or boot.img, use SP Flash v 3.1206.01 minimum. Refer to Bruno's blog : http://bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/mt6575-flashing-tutorial.html (credit to Bruno) for the guide.

To make a full rom backup (need root), please refer to this post (credit to rua1 for the guide) - it's in Russian - need to use translator.

above files are based on rom :

Model number - SX5

Android version - 2.3.6

Baseband version - MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V13,2012/04/10 18:13

Kernel versioin - 2.6.35.7 rlk-buildsrv1@rlk-buildsrv1-desktop #1

Build number - G502H_TYIN_A_MICXON_ALPSGB2MPV2_V6S20120724

Custom build version - 1343125947

bug : auto-start not working. Any program with auto-start feature will need to be manually run after reboot. Still find a way to fix it (the reason why I root this phone)

Disclaimer : While these have been fully tested to work on my friend's devices (2 units), I do not guarantee it will work on yours. I do not take any responsibilities if your bricked your device/void your warranty by using any of these files. Rooting a device normally will void the warranty. Please check with your seller/shop regarding warranty.
[Android General] VpR:
How did you pull the boot and recovery img from the phone?
[Android General] aze2learn:
there are 2 methods :

1) read back via SP flash or;

2) use custom recovery with adb root

If using SP flash read back method, get a compatible scatter with same cpu/spec and readback from 0 - 1FFFFFFF (512mb) - this will give a full copy of rom, need to use hex editor to grab specific area eg preloader, dsp_bl, uboot, boot, recovery, etc. OR read only particular area for specific image. Some device may have to testpoint to get it loaded.

If using adb root method:

nand device image can be pull from /dev/block/mtdblockX

emmc device image can be pull from /dev/block/mmcblk0pX

this will give specific image for particular area.
[Android General] BHARDIK:

[Android General] aze2learn:
I'm afraid no.. It will not work on other model ... GB 2.3.6 uses yaffs2 format while ICS uses ext4 format so it will brick the phone if you try.

Please do not try to use on other model. Thanks.

Would you help me to share the complete rom back up for me?
[Android General] jasliau:
To make a full rom backup (need root), please refer to this post (credit to rua1 for the guide)

Did you follow the above link to root them or there's flashable rooting zip?
[Android General] aze2learn:
Looks the same .. rom version the same .. processor the same .. but IT IS NOT! Therefore sorry for unable to help you because Cross A20 is not SX5. Ask your seller if it's still under warranty.

Sorry but if you *really* read and *understand* what I've posted in the 1st post, I used the official superuser zip with custom recovery to root. Custom recovery is a powerful tool if you know how to use it.

The attached CWM was specifically built with SX5 kernel extracted from the original rom itself. It WILL not be compatible to other 5" whatever brand/model. Please stop asking question here if your device is not SX5. Flashing the attached CWM into other model may result blank/corrupted screen in recovery.
[Android General] aze2learn:
Sorry as I understand SX5 units are all unlocked. Maybe you didn't activate international roaming? (assuming you're still using the same sim card?)

I would love to share if I ever found one but unfortunately there's no to avail.
[Android General] jasliau:
Thanks, and I asked on behalf for my friend... I will try that method to help him.
[Android General] bebek15:
can i use this on other MT6575 based phone?
[Android General] aze2learn:
No problem, wish you all the best :)

ps: that last line regarding SX5 in my prev post was actually a general statement to stop people for simply flashing wrong recovery into wrong model. Sorry for the wrong impression.

Sorry. No.
