[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobyman7035:
still no luck with wifi on my network after flashing back to stock 4.2 from 4.2.1

same 'broken' wifi

might be this phone's wifi hardware is incompatible with wDDRT router?

Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (10/10/09) std

my other wifi devices work perfectly fine, so im really stumped

in phones advance wifi settings it has this WPS entry - what is this and is it somehow not allowing me full wifi?

i can view playstore,, it checks and loads my gMail but it won't connect to websites

it takes so long to download and install apps from playstore, i have to hit cancel, redownload, reinstall to get it working,etc. its not 'instant' like normal 20Mbps wifi should be

ran speedtest.net app and it wont connect to any servers

if anyone has clues to why my wifi is broken, please PM me thanks

it get a blue 3 to 4 bars on wifi signal but it keeps having this 'black' dot flashing in that wifi signal bar, (what is that?)

shows connected to my wifi at 72Mbps at good strength

I found my solution: in my router I unchecked the option WMM (Wi-Fi-multimedia)-settings (2.4GHz b/g/n). After I activated it, my data speeds increased enormously. Try it & report!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobyman7035:
thanks i will look for that option in my router but don't think i have it

Public wifi and my work wifi working perfect with n4. So it definitely my routers wddrt firmware issues with n4... still gottta figure it
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extremewing:
My n4 will not connect to any of the WPA2 AP's around here.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armstrom:
I have the opposite problem. I can connect to my WPA2 router at home just fine but cannot connect to the WEP wifi at work. Well, not reliably. I've gotten connected twice, but was unable to recreate the conditions.

I had speed problems with my 5GHz band at home. Connected, but couldn't get over 1Mbps on my 30+ connection. Connected to the 2.4Ghz band and I get significantly faster speeds. Haven't had problems connecting though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazy-buntu:
I've noticed similar behavior, seems like my 5ghz signal strength is much weaker than my 2.4ghz signal according to my n4.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobyman7035:
So this n4 is picky about. Certain WiFi networks.configs
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acegolfer:
Sometimes, my N4 loses wifi connection at work. It's inconsistent. My work wifi is open but MAC filtered.

There have been 3-4 times when I noticed that it lost wifi connection. I had to turn off wifi radio and back on to reconnect.

OTOH, connection to home DD-WRT wifi router is rock solid.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabrielSousa:

very strange !!!!

can you test to flash back CWM recovery and test again the wifi ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucena04:
Hello, I am also having problems with WIFI. I've tried a lot of things (change the router configuration, the cellular exchange kernel, etc ...) but I could not fix this problem. Can you give any more ideas? I've even thought about buying another router but can be giving the same problem.

I used my wife's phone as a router and it works normally, but when I connect directly to the router from home and he trasfere data only for a few moments and then transferring data, although still seem the symbol of wifi connected.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigVDawgy:
I found changing a setting on the Nexus 4 seems to have remedied most of my WiFi issues. Forcing the WiFi frequency band to 2.4GHz only instead of Auto appears to have done the trick for me.

In WiFi if you select Settings and Advanced under Wi-Fi frequency band there is an option to force 5GHz or 2.4GHz with the default on Auto.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielvc:
Will try it, thanks.

Hello,

Im currently using the Jelly Sandwich 8.0 rom. Very new to all these stuff and took me a couple of tries before I succeed in installing this ROM.

But I went ahead and try to play around with defaultthemes.apk and tried installing custom themes (copy paste using root explorer, mounted as r/w and all). After following the proper instructions and rebooting it seems like the themes cant be found in settings>display>themes.

Can anyone help me point out where I did wrong?

Or is Jelly Sandwich not supportive of custom themes?

Thanks in advance and please inform if I am in the wrong section/part of the forums.

Using ARC S, locked bootloader, stock kernel, Jelly Sandwich 8.0 ROM, tried installing themes from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1481769

no need reboot

i change the defaulttheme and it's work.

i change picture size with PhotoCap

CF-Root is the root for "rooting beginners" and those who want to keep as close to stock as possible. CF-Root is meant to be used in combination with stock firmwares, and be the quickest and easiest way for your first root.

Donate

CF-Root has been available for many devices and has clocked over 9.5 million downloads. This is not even counting custom ROMs that already include it. Don't be a leech, buy me a beer (and use the "Thanks" button!). Imagine if every CF-Root user has donated me $1...

What's installed

- SuperSU binary and APK

- Nothing else, that's it.

Installation and usage

- Download the ZIP file (see post below for link)

- Extract the ZIP file

- Boot your device in bootloader/fastboot mode. Usually this can be done by turning your device off, then holding VolUp+VolDown+Power to turn it on.

- Connect your device to your computer using USB

- Windows:

--- Run root-windows.bat

- Linux

--- chmod +x root-linux.sh

--- Run root-linux.sh

- Mac OS X

--- chmod +x root-mac.sh

--- Run root-mac.sh

- Follow the on-screen instructions - watch both the computer and the device !

Note that if your device had not been unlocked before, this procedure will wipe all your data !

Are you having fastboot driver issues? You can find fastboot drivers in many places, but the easiest way is probably just installing the Android SDK.

Did you see the red Android logo during rooting, but SuperSU does not appear? This may sometimes occur due to left-over files and settings, however, you can usually install SuperSU from Google Play at this stage and it'll just work.

Not included - adbd Insecure

As this CF-Root does not include a custom kernel, adb shell does not have root access by default (you can still get it by typing su inside the shell), nor is adb remount supported, nor will adb push and adb pull work on system files. adbd Insecure can be used to remedy this situation. (No idea what this is about ? Don't worry about it !)

[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] case-sensitive:
Thanks!

Newbie question: Does CF-Auto-root unlock the bootloader as well? (probably not, as I understand from your post and that's what I want, but I want to be sure...)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] SeanHacker:
From the OP... i marked in bold the important part. ;)

What's installed

- SuperSU binary and APK

- Nothing else, that's it.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] shimp208:
No, this does not unlock the bootloader it only gives you root acess and installs the SuperSu app. To unlock the bootloader you must use fastboot and type the command:

fastboot oem unlock

I would suggest taking a look at mskip and wugfreshs toolkits located in the original development and development section of the nexus 10 forums respectively for a simple way to unlock your bootloader.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] notoriouspk:
Good to see nexus 10 getting all this support from Android gurus here on xda ...but again it's a nexus device ...me glad I bought it ...extremely happy with my purchase thanks chainfire for this easy root method as usual it works :p
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] nofam:
So if this doesn't unlock your device, why does the OP state:

Note that if your device had not been unlocked before, this procedure will wipe all your data !?

Does rooting/installing SU wipe this device?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] ShadowVlican:
His previous version didn't wipe the device, so I'm guessing this one doesn't either

Didn't need to unlock boot loader to root
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] FreakPrism:
Are you sure? The script in the ZIP in OP has the following command:

tools\fastboot-windows.exe oem unlock

Does that not issue a unlock? Is it necessary to run this command?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] d0nald01:
hi there, not sure how to get this to work

its giving error because it can't find adbwinapi.dll

I installed the sdk for 4.2 already, not sure what i am missing

Please re-download, I've included the missing file in the new package.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] d0nald01:
now its stuck at waiting for device

when i plug in my n10 on bootloader screen, i hear the bad connection to usb sound, the 3 note sound, not the usual 2 note sound when i the connection is good.

but i am still able to see my n10 when i boot it up normally and can transfer files etc

am i missing something?

Hi

Can I try it on my new nexus 10 under 4.2.2 ?

and how can I do a backup before unlocking ?

I already have installed many apps and start to use it, I don't want to lose all config.

I used to do it on my rooted dhd (and many flash) but I don't know on unlocked nexus :o
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] vogonpoetlaureate:
Works fine on 4.2.2, go ahead.

For backup, you could use Carbon which lets you backup apps without root.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] ash99:
Sorry if I'm a bit off topic here but I was looking for a root solution in which I would not unlock the bootloader / wipe the device. Can this method be modified to do that or can someone point me in the right direction ?

[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] arcticblue:
Can confirm that rooting with latest CF-Auto-Root works on Nexus 10 :good:

Did as follows;

* Started from stock 4.2

* Updated to 4.3 via OTA

** Needed to clear 'Settings -> Apps -> All -> Google Services Framework -> Clear data' before detecting 4.3 [off-topic]

* Re-downloaded latest CF-Root

* Manually re-rooted (as instructed on first page)

* Restart of my Nexus 10

* Re-installed Supersu via Google Play

* Restart of my Nexus 10

Done!
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] abdel12345:
Ok does this wipe my data if i use it. My bootloader is locked because i relockedit before the 4.3 update. And now i lost root. So can i use this method to root with a locked bootloader?

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

ok when i ran the command it said your device might be wiped and i really dont want to lose my data (again) can someone confirm this works with a locked bootloader without erasing data?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] :
If your devices bootloader is locked autoroot will unlock it to perform its magic - unlocking a locked bootloader wipes your device. So th answrr is NO!
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] abdel12345:
Its OK I used ncry toolkit and it rooted without unlocking. Then I was able to unlock using the bootunlocker app so now I'm fine. Thanks anyway

I can also confirm CFAR works on N10 now. Thanks CF :)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] b1g.p0ppa:
Yes, CFAR worked for me as well. An interesting thing is that root is still denied some actions. E.g.:

root@manta:/ # input key_event 26
/system/bin/input[6]: app_process: Permission denied

_and_

root@manta:/ # cat /sdcard/test.sh
#!/system/bin/sh
echo hello!
root@manta:/ # sh /sdcard/test.sh
sh: /sdcard/test.sh: Permission denied
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] corumuk:
Can someone just confirm, as i've not used this tool before.

My bootloader is already unlocked so can I just flash the CF-Auto-Root-manta-mantaray-nexus10.img file from this package from fastboot with

fastboot flash boot CF-Auto-Root-manta-mantaray-nexus10.img?

Presumably the .img file is a boot image?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] b1g.p0ppa:
No. You have to boot your nexus into bootloader, connect to PC, unzip this package on PC, and execute the root-os.sh/bat that is appropriate to your OS.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] J M L:
You can skip the parts of the script that unlock your boot loader. In that case there is just one command, but be sure you get it exactly correct. It's not fastboot flash boot ...img, but rather fastboot boot ...img. (working from memory, so check the script.)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] corumuk:
Thanks. Yeah that bit of the script was what threw me, hence my hesitation.

I edited the script and deleted everything above the 'fastboot boot' command line (apart from the first line) and it worked a treat.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] hawkstwelve:
Thanks Chainfire! Worked like a charm. Simply ran the root-windows.bat file after unzipping, pressed a couple keys, and bam! Rooted just fine. Thanks again.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Khaon:
@Chainfire

Those lines of codes are executed by init.rc. The scripts looks with blkid if the file system of each partitions is f2fs or ext4 and then mount accordingly

chmod 0777 ./check_fs.sh
exec ./check_fs.sh

However it is never executed and its attributes are read only for each group of users. Any ideas about a workaround?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Chainfire:
More info on this will be available in a few days. Sorry I am falling behind on 5.0 root docs, but answering all these questions is only going to slow me down more.

Anyway thanks again for your work, let's wait for your guidelines release :good:

full su permission

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but what will have to happen to have better permissions under su? For example I can get su in terminal but a command such as "wm size" meets with an error. Do the application developers need to change something? Or is the new su under L not giving true full permission?

Thanks
