Help going to stock from Blu Kuban

I just got a used E4GT with Blu Kuban FE10 1.0.3.9 ROM with Rogue ET Recovery 1.2.3 (v5.0.2.8) and 3.0.15-SPH-D710.FE22-CL612283 se.infra@SEP-99 #3 kernel.

I've rooted my LG Optimus S a number of times before, but this is my first try with the E4GT. I have read the thread on how not brick it and other stickies :).

I want to go back to stock in order to activate it on Sprint. Can I use the installed Rogue Recovery to flash one of the Stock ROM zip's from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1903252? Any recommendations on which Stock ROM and kernel is best to install while activating on Sprint?

If flashing a Stock ROM zip file from custom recovery is not recommended, then I will install EL29 One-click.exe or FI27 One-click.exe.

Thanks for your help guys.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
To do the hands-free activation? Any build should do. I'd honestly go with the current - FI27 - and then get Agat's repacked recovery. Just as good as CWM and safe against the eMMC bug (at least as long as you keep that kernel/recovery... if you flash something with a new kernel/recovery all bets are off.)

And welcome to the E4GT! (Weren't you on the AC Opt S forums also? Your name seems familiar...)

for some reason i can't download apps from market if I'm using wifi but they download over 3g. Never had this problem before but after flashing Blu Kuban and then going back to Goodness I seem to have borked my market app. Have tried reflashing Goodness a couple of times (always a clean install). I noticed the same problem after I flased the Kuban (one of the reasons I wen't back to Goodness). I know it can't be the app it has to be something, any ideas?

Seeking way to enable USM on non-rooted GS2, Android 4.1.2

I did search, and perhaps this is already answered and I was not clever enough to find it.

The problem: My wife accidentally deleted all of her photos and is hoping I can recover them.

Complications: Her phone is not rooted and the boot-loader is still locked, so I don't know of any way to root it which would not be destructive to the data.

My goal: There are some fairly powerful data-recovery apps I could try, which want to access the phone from within windows (we run WinXP right now, do have a laptop with Win7) via drive-letter. I did find one windows utility that will apply a drive letter to a PTP (camera) device, but that ONLY exposes current images, and won't work for these data-recovery tools. I need the entire file-system presented to windows via USM.

I've tried: for USM I've tried USB Mode Switcher by Alex163, USB Mode Switcher by Zatta (worked on my own GS2 prior to Jellybean). USB Debugging mode is enabled, however jellybean removed USM and only exposes MTP and PTP modes. For data recovery from within the phone's OS (and w/o root access) I tried Photo Gallery (Fishbowl) by Pixie Reef LLC (they claim to be able to undelete, but the app cannot find her deleted images).

I would love any help with either my specific goal (enable USM to get drive-letter in windows) or the larger goal: recovering her lost images.

Thank you in advance!!!!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikecd:
thank you

I appreciate the link! I've seen that, and it's one of several windows-based utilities that I have high hopes for, however it works by scanning drives as seen in Windows explorer. As such, it requires USB Mass Storage mode, and won't work with a phone in MTP or PTP modes (since then the phone shows up in Printers and Devices in Windows, but not as a drive with a drive letter.)

As for rooting... can't he use framaroot without data lose... I'm not sure as I rooted on ICS...edit... [MENTION=4919976]mikecd[/MENTION]

You can use framaroot.... I totally spaced and forgot I had searched for a root method for a member who wanted to stay stock.. and framaroot worked for him..

It was kind of cool and funny to search xda and find my answer in a thread I had posted the answer in... lol..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikecd:
Thanks again for the input, folks.

As for rooting - I rooted my own GS2 using odin w/o losing data. The problem that I am worried about is the boot-loader being locked. I don't know of a way to unlock the boot-loader that doesn't wipe the phone, and a locked boot-loader prevents rooting, I believe?

As for fixing MTP, I can see the files fine now via MTP. The problem is that the phone shows up in My Computer as a device, and not as a drive, and thus has no drive letter. I attached a screenshot.

Regarding your links: I am installing the Windows MTP fix now and will report as to whether that allows me to use a drive-letter for the phone. For the tools in the XDA forum link, the tools in the discussions all require root, which I do not have.

Thanks again for helping!

EDIT: The MS MTP fix installed without errors but the phone still doesn't have a drive letter. From what I understand, that's normal for MTP devices. So I am still stuck.

[MENTION=4919976]mikecd[/MENTION]

Framaroot app will allow you to root... check it out....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stryke_the_Orc:
I keep forgetting about framaroot :banghead:

Correct, you'll need to have your device mount as usb mass storage. Try the framaroot method of rooting the device, then you can use any of the apps that require root, also I don't believe that method needs an unlocked bootloader to work, but am not 100% sure about that so do some research into framaroot and decide whether or not its for you:good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
[MENTION=4919976]mikecd[/MENTION]

The bootloader should not matter as far as I've read... atleast concerning our device...

Also.. remember that even though the deleted files can be retrieved.. the more you use the device, it becomes more likely that it will write over the data that exists now without a path to it...

If that makes sense to ya.. lol.. I couldn't think how to explain it better....

I'm going to bed.. :eek:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikecd:
That totally does make sense, and is a danger I have been very aware of. I am certainly hoping that my efforts to save her photos don't wipe them, and in the mean time she's content to not use her phone.

Framaroot did get me root access - thank you both!! Holy cow that's sweet. Last time I rooted a GS2 was with Odin, and that was pretty cool in of itself. But this exploit method is really slick.

Now I am closer: USB Switcher will change the mode and I do see two drive letters (for internal storage and for external/micro_sd) but neither actually mount (eg - size remains 0). She doesn't have an external/micro_sd card and only uses the phone's internal memory. The other options in the xda-developers forum link aren't (yet) working either. I tried manually setting the config via terminal program (su; setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage,adb; reboot) didn't help either.

sheesh.

Bed sounds like a good idea. I'll play more with it tomorrow.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
Now since you can see them but they won't mount... I'm going to say that you might try a different patch on you're PC..

This is just guess work on my part... and yes bed is sounding good.. lol

I will check back tomorrow and see if you have gotten any farther... and if not... I'll help ya scourer the web for a fix.. I think I might have seen one in the tab 10.1 forum( I bounce between that forum and this one )..

Good night xda.... lol

Edit.. [MENTION=4919976]mikecd[/MENTION]

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.zatta.USB_switch

That app has always worked for me on this device. If I remember correctly, you will have to restart your phone the first time. After that plug it into your computer, then turn on usb storage in the notification bar drop-down menu.

For another possibility for recovery software, I have had luck with Recuva before. It is by the same developers as CCleaner.

http://www.filehippo.com/download_recuva/

Edited to add the second link.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikecd:
Recurva is one 2 or 3 applications I want to use once I get the phone seen properly as a drive!

I am currently using Zatta's switcher. When I set it to USM mode then Windows does see 2 drive letters (internal storage and external_sd) but both show as 0 byte devices with no content. That's not surprising for the exernal_sd as she doesn't have one installed. So basically Zatta's switcher is almost working for me.

Today I installed the official USB driver from Samsung and it got worse - phone was no longer recognized in USM mode, nor in MTP mode. So I ran Kies and had it reinstall its drivers and now I am back to where I was: phone is seen normally in MTP mode with full access to files but no drive letter, and phone is seen almost correctly in USM mode with drive letters but no data.

---------- Post added at 08:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 AM ----------

There must be something messed up in my Windowx XP computer.

I installed Kies on my Win7 laptop and then ran the "connection troubleshooter" to trigger a USB driver reinstall. Once that was done I connected the phone to the laptop and USB Mass Storage Watcher (which had NOT been giving me the option to switch modes) finally notified and gave me the button to enable file copy (like old Android offered in the "settings \ wireless networks and more \ usb settings" section). I enabled that and now have a drive letter in Win7 for the phone and I can see files!!!!!!

Thank you all for the assitance, and wish me luck with Recurva and Remo Recovery and the lot.

Hey guys,

I'm having an issue with my e4gt. For whatever reason I am having a difficult time sending texts and making calls, after a little research I think it looks like it might be an issue with my radio.

I am running AOCP ROM and I am on 4.2.2.

I have had this problem before and when I did I tried a nandroid recovery, a reflash, and a clean flash of a different ROM. None of these worked and the way I fixed it was by waiting a day for whatever reason.

Now I'm having this same problem except it isn't blocking everything, I can get about 1:10 texts I send through and about 1:3 calls.

Is anybody familiar with this problem at all?

Any help whatsoever is greatly appreciated.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
Have you tried a different modem... and if yes... did you update you're prl/profile....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
My first inclination is to suggest you go back to stock and see if you have any issues. If you like your CM rom, then use a one-click root, using the ICS build of choice.

Update your profile and PRL and see if you have everything running as it should. If yes, go back to the rom you like and see if that clears things up.

Make sure you are running the latest update of the rom you like on next flash, and read the OP to a tee.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stryke_the_Orc:
Flashing stock recovery doesn't remove root.

If you're only looking for the recovery flash a kernel. If you're looking to go completely stock unrooted, you'd want to flash (Odin or one click) the entire ROM.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
To get the stock recovery back... just download the correct kernel for the rom you're on from rwilco's repo and flash it with odin/mobile odin

so ive never flashed a rom but ive been doing a lot of reading and dont think ill have any trouble but i do have a couple questions. most were answered a couple pages back but my first question was left out of that post.

1. im on stock gb27 with the jb modem so going to cyanogenmod i need to flash back to an ics modem i can to that with odin on my pc (im guessing at the sametime i flash a custom recovery since you can add your files then flash) but wont that require me to update my profile\prl? and if i change to cyanogenmod i wont be able to do that right? which means either one click back to fi27 then procede or i saw something about a rom that will just boot once back to stock to make changes then on reboot it goes back to cyanogenmod.

2. ive heard alot good about slim bean can you point me to the thread to read up on flashing to that? ( since im already posting save me time of looking in a bunch of places that would do me no good)

Build 7 is very good also check out post three for his beanstalk build. I will leave your other questions to someone else since I'm on a different carrier.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
My thoughts: Use PC Odin or use a one-click, but grab an ICS rom with root, preferably restore version of same. Update your profile and PRL now whilst on stock GB27. No need to do it again after throttling down to the ICS build, but if you want to do it again after doing so, knock yourself out. But I would advise you to do the full ICS stock rooted restore, not just the modem.

After finishing the install of stock with root, grab either the EL26 or EL29DirectBoot files linked in the OP of your chosen rom, and from within CWM, enable your back button, wipe everything as qbking77 instructs you to do, again for good measure, flash the rom and Gapps, and reboot. Enjoy your new setup, go nuts.

My thoughts: Slim rom rocks, as do so many others. Try them out and see what you like. I started my time on this forum on WFTN, and tried about 5 different roms. They are all awesome. Ktempleton, Dastin, and hoards of others do amazing work. Read, try, and thank all whom have created the work from which you are benefitting, wherever you have trodden.

Happy flashing. Keep us posted, and enjoy yourself.

Grab the one-click restore, which retains root but puts your phone in original condition.

Can SecContacts and SecPhone Be Moved to Preload?

After installing The Missing Link, I've got less space in system apps. Can SecContacts and SecPhone both be moved to preload if I run the symlink tool?

Edit: I've got two versions in both locations, which means missing link could be planting a newer version of both in system apps.

Edit 2: Same with SecSettings.apk. Two of those as well.

Edit 3: Yup, that did the trick. Back to 55MB+ in system apps. Little to no change in preload. I'll post this over in the Missing Link thread.

Edit 4: If you are running a 3rd party launcher either of these apps in the dock, you may have to put them back.

I'm going to move the newer version to preload and report back. I believe multiple flashes of missing link is contraindicated without some housecleaning.

I'm inclined to just try it, but figured I'd ask.
