this is the updated supersu flashable .zip :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TecQuality:
yes, but have you tried with CWM? i mean have you already flashed the latest CWM with latest Android (4.3)?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] omer7:
Which version?

I read chainfire's post on twitter/google+ abt CF auto root so gave it a try. And it was quite easy to root through this method. I currently do not have any custom recovery installed in my phone.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TecQuality:
the second post file :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] omer7:
No but i think chainfire said that he updated the file. I tried it and it successfully rooted my phone. :thumbup:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] djsubterrain:
Yeah, I'm on 4.3 now and it works great, it's just the strange option you have to choose after flashing (can't remember the wording at the moment), apparently you don't get asked that on TWRP
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TecQuality:
it asks you if you wanna reflash the stock recovery, then you must say 'NO' and everything gonna alright.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] djsubterrain:
Yep, that's the one!

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] alex2308:
It seems not 100% working. I tried updating from 4.2.2 to 4.3 using

fastboot flash bootloader N4_4.3\bootloader-mako-makoz20i.img

fastboot.exe reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio N4_4.3\radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.0.1700.84.img

fastboot.exe reboot-bootloader

fastboot update N4_4.3\image-occam-jwr66y.zip

fastboot flash recovery N4_4.3\recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.6-mako.img

fastboot boot N4_4.3\CF-Auto-Root-mako-occam-nexus4.img

Then it hangs showing the "Google" screen from boot. Reflashing using "fastboot update N4_4.3\image-occam-jwr66y.zip" still shows the "Google" boot-screen.

What does the .img do? Any chance to unbrick the device?

BTW, I think it didnt work because the device was encrypted.

Any updates for supporting Android 4.4?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jcnbama:
Dunno if this helps but as far as I know rooting for 4.4 is about the same as 4.3 When I put it on my Nexus 7 I just used Wugs Nexus root toolkit and re-rooted it. Worked fine installed Super SU... Like a charm.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] azrash:
You can also download the latest flashable zip of supersu and just flash it in custom recovery. Should work for most devices. I used it on my Nexus 7 with kit Kat

This link would bring you to the latest version available, even if chain fire release a new one, the link would still work.

I tried to Root the 4.4-r1.2, the SuperSu is not being installed but it says the rooting was successful.

Update: I download the SuperSU app via Google Play.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] akhil7j:
You mean with the custom recovery? Can I just flash the SU without any custom recovery? My Nexus 4 is stock with 4.4 OEM Unlocked.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] azrash:
not sure if cf auto root is updated. Have you tried it?

But, Yes to flash supersu you'll need custom recovery. You can use fastboot to flash TWRP or CWM, or toolkits. But I recommend to use fastboot.

Download TWRP for mako from Goo.im or CWM from clockworkmod.com and follow the steps to flash custom recovery here, via fastboot

[HOW-TO] How to flash a factory image / return to stock / unlock / root # by efrant - xda-developers
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] akhil7j:
Bootloader is unlocked already. Flashing custom recovery will wipe my device again?

So if I install Custom Recovery and Google releases another OTA, how will I install that? Can I just download the OTA zip file and flash it through custom recovery? That works or bricks the phone?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] azrash:
Flashing a custom recovery won't wipe your device.

Yes, you can download the OTA zip file, and flash it in TWRP.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] akhil7j:
Thanks really.! I heard TWRP has some issues with KitKat. Which one you suggest for KitKat.?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] azrash:
If you are referring to issue where Flashing the OTA to KRT16S in custom recovery is having issues, I am not too sure. Your best bet is to use the latest version of TWRP or CWM and update them when they are available. If you already on the latest KRT16S already, you'll be fine. Personally, I updated my N7 via the factory image through fastboot, and skipped the Flashing user data img, so my data and internal storage is intact. Plus, you don't have to wait for OTA.

In my signature, I have uploaded flashable zips of these two recoveries and when the update comes, I'll update them accordingly too. You can just flash them in your custom recovery to update or change to a different custom recovery. Hopefully the issue would be addressed in the next update, they normally are fixed eventually.

This is getting off topic, if you have any more questions with regard to recoveries, you can post in the respective thread of the recoveries for the Nexus 4 or post in the help thread.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Utkarsh-ezzo:
I think we all should wait until [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] roots the Lollipop properly i.e. by patching the lollipop bootloader,

If we use this existing method then we will have a root but we will loose the lollipop bootloader.

May be I am totally wrong but this is what I thought and wanted to share in the community.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Micoolef:
I keep getting stuck in a bootloop after 'fastboot boot CF-Auto...'. The process on the device screen runs smooth, reboots in 10 seconds, and then just bootloop. It has happened after multiple attempts.

I am on fresh stock everything.

Edit: So I realized these aren't the directions in the OP, so I decided to try those. I am using a Mac. I assume the chmod +x... is punched into terminal after navigating to the folder. But how do you 'run' the root-mac.sh? It just opens as a text editor.

Edit 2: Nevermind I got it! Typing 'sh root-mac.sh' in terminal runs the script.

Hi All. I just tried to root my N4 and it looked like it worked then I intalled TWRP manager and when I try to backup my phone it can't boot into recovery (I get the droid with red exclamation mark) does that mean that I am not rooted ?

Thank you
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jd1639:
Maybe. The droid with the red exclamation mark is the stock recovery. Some how twrp did not get installed which might be because you're not rooted. Get root checker from the play store.

Also, flash the twrp image file with fastboot

Hi,

i have an a700 and a htc oneX... On the oneX ive a menu when im in the gallery where i can choose a wlan-player. on the a700 i miss that menu... can someone tell me how to update the gallery app or how to get that menu? on the a700 is the iconiaN rom oneX is at stock htc rom.

thanks

cTv
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
It's because HTC has modified the one for the One X more than likely. And as it is, it probably won't work on the Iconia in stock form.

You can try porting the app to the Iconia.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] cTv:
i would do so if i would know how to extract it from the oneX... im not very firm with modding :(
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] TomONeill:
There are multiple ways to do this:

1. This would require root on your htc one x.

Go to /data/app and search for the gallery. Copy and paste it on your sd card or internal memory (/data/sdcard) and transfer it to your tablet.

Then try installing the apk and see if it works.

2. This would require root on both your htc one x and your acer iconia tab a700.

Install the app Titanium Backup root. Open up the app and search in Back-up/Restore for the Gallery app. Then tap it and choose for Back-up!. Then go to your internal memory (or sd card if Titanium Backup installed on the sd card) (data/sdcard) and transfer the folder TitaniumBackup to your tablet. Now install Titanium Backup root on your tablet and go to Back-up/Restore. Search for the gallery (probably grayed out with a line through it. If you can't find it, search for the already installed gallery, tap it and press restore.

3. Try making an .apk file from the gallery on your htc one x. I think I've seen an app doing that with root permissions, but can't find/remember. So I found a way which would NOT require root on your htc one x.

Install the app Save Master. I don't know how it works, 'cause I've never been using it before, but you probably can find that out yourself :)

4. This is not actual porting, but you can search for the internal name of the app (with Link2SD and search for it on Google.

To find the internal app name, launch the app and search for the gallery. You'll see the location of the app, probably something like this:

/system/app/com.htc.gallery.apk. Then take the part after the / and search for it on Google. If you can't find it, try adding htc one x to your search.

I have a ton of Samsung and HTC chargers from all the phones I've had over the years. Enough that I have these chargers placed throughout the house in any place I may need to charge a phone or device, and travel with the HTC/Samsung chargers.

I noticed the HTC and Samsung chargers put out 5V at 1.0A, however the LG charger that came with the phone puts out 5V at 1.2A. If I use the existing chargers putting out 1.0A, can I damage or lessen the life of the battery in my new Sexy Nexy?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DynamicRam:
It won't damage your battery, it is actually better to charge it with the weaker charger but it will take longer to fully charge
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LadFromWales85:
No, the phone will take what it needs. It doesn't take full whack constantly, it depends how depleted the battery is. Anything with an output lower than 0.8A and you'll probably notice longer charging times. That's it :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Zoidberg:
On many devices, using a low capacity (or poor quality) charger can create some touch screen issues with responsiveness. It does not damage anything, but makes interacting with the phone problematic.

I have the original charger, HTC desire, HTC one s, some old windows phone lg charger, Samsung wave 2 charger and a generic HTC charger in my car. Never had any problems with any of them on any device. The only thing I notice is the car charger charges slower then the others.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirozizo:
The technical details behind this is that having a low amperage charger connected causes the digitizer of the phone to take less electrical current, because the battery will be taking most of it, so it will do this chaotic thing, especially when you put two fingers on a horizontal position and swipe up or down. That's also because of some static electricity problem caused by having an electrical flow from the wires to the battery which makes the digitizer lost.

So, this:

is probably the other way around, since you need a bigger amperage to properly use the phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReCreate:
There is absolutely no way lower amperage in any circumstances can damage any circuitry of any sort.

The amperage is simply the amount of energy that is being sent into the phone. Less energy = Slower charge time.

If you give too little amperage to a computer, for example, It will simply not turn on, or if it does turn on, randomly turn off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirozizo:
you just said it...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReCreate:
Yeeeah. Randomly turn off because of not enough electricity. That's not damaging. At most it could damage software if the filesystem on the computer is non-journaled. Maybe corrupt a file if something is being written.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirozizo:
ahhh yes sorry, i thought you were talking about the digitizer thing, oops.

yes actually, less electricity can't damage anything except data loss from a random shutdown while writing/deleting something. you are right :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReCreate:
Ah, yeah. Lol. Oops. :P
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvlhs:
Doesn't the phone still pull current from the battery even when plugged to a charger? If that is true, the phone shouldn't turn off as long as it still has battery. The only thing that may happen is that you can eventually run out of battery while charging if you're engaging on a demanding activity that will draw more current from the battery than the one being supplied to it. Please tell me if I'm right or wrong, I'm just trying to speculate using common sense.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
You are correct, the phone still runs on the battery, even when charging... This is common actually with very low amperage chargers (500ma such as USB) and you are using it well drawing more than the charging current, which is not difficult, the phone does not shot off.

As far as the digitizer low current thing... I am not sure that is technically correct, because it is quite common when using the phone and plugged into USB, the phone will draw 500ma-1000ma well running depending on what your doing and the touch does not get messed up, yet your PC can only provide 500ma (in most cases) of charge current, you can see this in GSAM where the battery current draw is still positive (it is negative when charging). I do know this happens though, I had an older cheapo 600ma charger that would cause any smartphone to no longer recognize any touch at all, and my old LG enV charger would do the same thing on some smartphones, so there is something causing it, and I thought I read somewhere if the voltage was too high, this could occur, if that is the case this could cause damage to your device. I tore apart that old charger before I through it, it was putting out close to 5.6vDC if memory servers me correctly, I chalked it up to that since it was almost 0.4vDC outside of the acceptable USB voltage range of 5.0±0.25v

This could also be caused by something on the non-power conductors of the USB charger, if they are grounded or have "foreign" voltage could cause possible touch screen issues.
