I have a kindle fire 2 running 10.2.4. I've been trying to use the tools in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35156970 to root my kindle. As I run the first one it detects the device and everything seems okay, but everything it tries to do it says 'permission denied' after it. It goes through all the motions with permission denied after each line, kindle restarts it seems like everything works properly except the permission is always denied. I've tried navigating to the folder using an administrator command prompt and running it through cmd, still fails with permission denied:

This is just one example: /system/bin/sh: cannot create /data/local.prop: Permission denied.

Have no idea where to go from here any help would be appreciated.

edit: just noticed I actually have superSU on my device.. not sure if this is what's supposed to be there or not?

Step 1 Restore

When you launch the Superuser in Apps, does it open?

When you run RunMe.bat Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v17 in Normal Mode does the Kindle

Asked to be Restored? Did you click on Restore prior to using the Qemu utility?

Any way to remove SuperSU icon?

This thread has been very helpful. I was able to root a Kindle Fire HD 7.2.3 just by using step 1. I was able to install google play, remove the lock screen adds and hopefully prevent the automatic updates. I do have one question. Is there any way to remove the SuperSU icon without losing root? Im setting up the Kindle Fire for someone else and dont want them accidentally doing something that might mess up the device. I have already removed es file manager and would like to remove the SuperSU icon so they cant go in an mess something up. Is there a way to do this without losing root?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] prokennexusa:
ES File Explorer

If you remove Superuser.apk, you will disable su since the SU Binary calls to Superuser.apk. What you can do is remove Root Explorer and install ES File Explorer which by default does not access Root. No Worries, you can enable Root in ES File Explorer under the Settings-Root Options menu.

I have attached a copy of ES File Explorer for your convenience.

New developer here. I'm coding my first app and I'd like to use a couple of nmap's tools, but I'm not sure how. Here are a couple questions that I have:

1. In theory, how should I go from app, to nmap, then back to app?

2. How could I include only the tools I'd need?

3. How can I negotiate the difference in language?

I'd appreciate the advice, however summary it is.

Hello.

I've been wanting to sell my iPad 2 and get a Transformer tablet for awhile now. I finally have a chance to, and I really need the community's help on which model I should get.

Over the weeks I've been doing as much reading as I can but when I decide on one model the others give me a glare in the face and show off something that the model I've chosen doesn't have.

My main usage for the tablet is for Word processing and watching HD MKV videos. So I've been looking for the tablet to fit.

Here's what I can gather.

Asus Transformer TF101. First model Eee pad, I doubt I'll be getting it, even though it's the cheapest. I've read that it chokes on 720p MKV videos on most non-stock video players, so I'll probably skip this.

Asus Transformer Prime TF201. Second model, and the one I'm worried about the most. It's got most of the specs I want out of a tablet, and is rather cheap at this point too. HOWEVER, every review I read mentioned the horrible WiFi signal due to the metal backing case. The metal back itself is pretty sexy-looking, but I don't know if I want to get this after reading all the horror stories regarding the WiFi.

Asus Transformer Pad TF300. From what I know, it's basically a cheaper version of the Prime TF201. It does not have the gorilla glass which is what I'm afraid of. I won't be getting a screen protector for this so I'm afraid it'll scratch easily. I need clarification on this. It does not have a metal back as well so I'm afraid the plastic back will scratch too. I'm not concerned about the looks of the back, but I don't like my devices having incredibly noticeable scratch marks. I hope you guys can help me with this.

Asus Transformer Infinity TF701. It's the latest model, and the most powerful. It's got everything I want out of a tablet, but I'm not too keen on the crazy price to get it here. It can go upwards of $1000 where I live, nearly double the price of the iPad 2.

I'm mostly tied between the TF300 and TF701. I'm very interested in the TF201 too but I need professional clarification on the WiFi issues. I would use my tablet in a relatively small house, and the device and router would be separated by at most 3 walls. I don't use GPS so I don't care for it.

Knowing all this, what would YOU, the community, recommend for ME? If it seems like too much, just help me with the TF300 and TF201. I really can't decide.

Please help, thank you.

I've tried turning USB debugging mode on and off + Home + Down Key + Power and I still get nothing.

I don't think I'm that stupid as I've tried the Home + Down Key + Power 4 times over and I still get nothing.

I've tried it with ODIN running and with ODIN not running.

I've tried it with a different mico USB cable and still got nothing.

My Home/Down/Power key's do work.

BTW I have the device fully powered down when trying any of these options ie soft menu and pulling the battery.

Are you using the stock ROM with stock kernel? Any custom kernel will not support Exfat.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
What's not working? exFat should work fine on the stock Verizon factory rom, but it should not and will not work on a custom recovery. To add onto the above funnyperson1's comment, custom kernels and custom recoveries will not recognize sd cards formatted to exFat, it must be Fat32.

Windows can't format drives >32GB that's why it failed. You need a third party solution to format memory >32GB to Fat32. Steps on how to do so are here:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] alquimista:
VRBLK3 Stock with stock kernel reformatted my snadisk ultra 64GB u1 class 10 SDXC card with no problems. I wanted a clean format for a fresh romantic and it worked without error.

Couple warnings on SDXC and non-stock ROMs and recoveries.

1. Don't use Root Explorer to move files around or create folders on this type of card, not even when formatted FAT32. It doesn't even read the card size correctly.

2. Its been reported several times that TiBu will sporadically not recognize exFAT formatted SDXC cards.

3. Any io speed hacks for external sdcards will cause apps to throw insufficient space errors if you're using SDXC.

4. (And probably the most vexing) The problem with exFAT is that most custom recoveries don't support it (stock recovery reportedly supports it but when uses stock recovery). So that's a burn. On the flip side, SDXC as a standard was built with exFAT as the supported fs. So FAT32 (anything that uses vfat) actually conflicts with SDXC standards. Its not a huge issue, but it can cause small linking errors that will cause windows to want to run chkdisk when it's mounted. Don't run chkdisk if you want to keep your data. Wading through hundreds of ".CHK" files trying to recover lost data for 5 hours is not fun.

I hope twrp will start supporting exFAT on the S3 (I think they have it working on the Note2), also need more kernels to start incorporating exFAT support. Otherwise 64GB SDXC will be a wash for custom ROMs and recoveries.

i have not troubles moving files around or creating folders on my sandisk ultra 64-1 with root explorer.

Yes, this situation is a huge mess. Why they standardized on a closed format like exFAT is beyond me. It's all about the Benjamins, I guess. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] alquimista:
More on SDXC and exFAT

Actually, its all about the size and speed.

SDXC was developed to support recording HD video (1920x1080Px30fps and higher).

First up is size:

FAT32 was not built to support file sizes above 2GB, and broadcast quality HD video is about 1GB per minute. You can see the problem there. But that's professional grade HD. Lets look at what our device does, which is roughly 124MB per minute of "full HD" (this is highly compressed). That means anything over roughly 16mins would be larger than 2GB which rules out FAT32.

Second up is speed:

Lets say you have a full 64GB card. SDHC class 10 would max at (in optimal conditions) 10MB/s transfer speed, so it would take almost 2 hours to transfer your data over an SDHC interface. SDXC UHS-I is rated at 100MB/s, so thats about 10 minutes to transfer 64GB over an SDXC interface. NOTE: If you are using an USB card reader that limits you to about 40MB/s in the best scenario, so its definitely faster to use a built in reader than use your phone as a USB card reader.

exFAT does have some serious draw backs though.

1. Totally proprietary to Microsoft.

2. File recovery is crap because there's only 1 VBR in exFAT. FAT32 uses alternating file records, so file recovery is easier.

Conclusion, the SDA's (Secure Digital Association, who owns the SD format) only route to keep up with the HD technology demands, even on a consumer level, was SDXC and exFAT. They couldn't go with any of the more robust file systems because they are mostly not cross platform compatible. NTFS just doesn't go very well on Mac, HFS on Windows is just dumb, and EXT(2,3,4) would just confuse the heck out of your every day end user.

I'm thinking about giving my microSDXC card to someone with a nice digital camera, and buying a 32GB microSDHC class 10 card. FAT32 on SDHC is the standard and won't give me any problems across any platform.

Hope that helps clarify some of the confusion and frustration with 64GB microSDXC cards and exFAT.

Ta,

ALQI
