If you want to root via recovery all you need to do (and explained in million topics if you had bothered to search like it says in rules) is simply flash Siyah kernel.

Alternativley there is a new exploit that can be used to root and then close exploit via an apk file.

There is a new exynos exploit app by chainfire which takes advantage of the exploit, you can root your phone if you install that apk and use it, it's quite easy and less risky.

There is an app, which works like odin in the cellphone, the pro version also roots the devise during flashing the rom, but my phone simple didn't start up when i was trying to update from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4, and it stuck on a green android symbol and finally i fixed it with flashing through odin via usb, so i don't recoupment it.

Lol, you have no other option you will need an insecure kernel and for that you will have to flash via Odin. So try to get your usb problems corrected like somebody mentioned in the above post, as if you run into a situation where you can get only into download mode your only option is to do it via usb.

Well considering the filename (i don't even have to DL it)

Filename: cwm-radio-mako-m9615a-cefwm

implies that its ClockWorkMod :p ... so yeah it is a flashable zip, works in any recovery

alternatively, you can extract the zip file and fastboot flash the radio by,

fastboot flash radio modem.img (place modem.img) in /platform-tools/ in fastboot.exe folder

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Anytime! thanks for the thanks. I had a link on how to back up basebands for Galaxy Nexus, not sure if it works on the N4 though. I'll have to look for it.

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd5 of=/sdcard/radio.img count=12583040 was the command (type it in terminal emulator or adb shell)

adb shell would be, adb shell....... then type ^^

(Again unsure if this works on N4) alternatively u can just download the stock images somewhere on the internet as google removed them but they're mirrored somewhere and the .img for radio is in there.

what would happen before is when you type that command. it should output a file named radio.img in your /sdcard/ folder which is your radio.

[Motorola Atrix HD] AzraelsVoice:
I'll start off by saying that I sell phones for a living, so I probably see a higher concentration of problems per phone. I'm a pretty big fan of the AHD and highly recommend it since I own one. Last week was just weird though.

Is anyone having an issue with their device just randomly powering off and not coming back on? Last week I had 5. Count it 5 AHDs come in the store that randomly powered off while being used with a charge and would not turn on. Most would show a green light when charging, but it would come and go. I used the power + volume button method to fix all but 2 of them. Absolutely stumped as to what's going on.

Any input guys?
[Motorola Atrix HD] Vorsorken:
You're saying it was plugged in and charging when the problem occurred? It may be that you are using the wrong charger. The charger that comes with the phone is rated for 5.1V output so you have to use that or plug it into a computer USB port. I had a weird issue that sounds similar to your problem when I inadvertently plugged my Atrix HD into a Samsung charger.
[Motorola Atrix HD] AzraelsVoice:
No no, I meant that the phone was charged, and that it didn't die because the battery went dead. They all claimed they were using factory chargers, and I know for a fact that one I couldn't revive was using a factory charger.

I flashed the stock ics sbf hoping for something and It kept doing it daily for about a week but it slowly started doing it less and less. Now it just doesn't happen at all anymore. Very strange.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ShadowCodeGaming:
Here are the steps for going back to stock:

Download your stock firmware from http://www.samfirmware.com (Registration is necessary, but is free)

Download the ''FlashProgram'' from samfirmware (Odin + PIT)

Unzip firmware, so you have either 3 .tar/.md5 files or 1 .tar/.md5

Unzip the ''Flashprogram''

Open the Odin.exe

In odin, select the I9000_s1_odin_20100512.pit with the button 'PIT'

Make sure ''Repartition'' is ON!

'

If you have only 1 .tar/.md5 file, continue with these instructions:

Under PDA, select the .tar/.md5 file

Flash it!

It will get stuck in bootloop after it's finished, don't worry!

Download the attached file from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=984140

Select the downloaded ''DBDATA.RFS.TAR'' as a PDA in odin

Make sure repartition is OFF this time!

Restart your phone back to download mode

Flash....

Enjoy!

If you have 3 .tar/.md5 files, continue with these instructions:

Under PDA, select the .tar/.md5 with PDA in the name

Under PHONE, Select the .tar/.md5 with PHONE or MODEM in the name

Under CSC, Select the .tar/.md5 file with CSC in the name

Flash!

Enjoy!

[HTC Droid DNA] majp89:
Hello,

I am new to these forums, therefore I cannot post into a Development thread.

I rooted and flashed a ROM on my phone (Genome 2.0 to be specific.)

It was a fine ROM, but I actually prefer Sense 4.1+ for right now and wish to go back to stock due to support reasons for my company as well. I saw a thread where you can use RUU. However, I cannot get the program to detect my phone (the dreaded error 170.) I also am in the process of using the ZIP file method where you grab it from the temp while RUU is open (getting it on my SD card has been another story.)

However, in the event I cannot get this to work, can someone who has got their DNA back to stock from root/ROM please give me some troubleshooting for the drivers? HTC Sync isn't detecting my DNA when there are no drivers. I wish to know how to remove ALL drivers for this phone from the device manager so it is as if I never had this device connected to my PC. I believe if I had these removed, it may help a lot of the issues I am having.
[HTC Droid DNA] majp89:
After hours (about 5 hours total) of checking into this, I figured out that it was trying to install the windows USB drivers for whatever reason. I just manually uninstalled whatever drivers it was trying to install (in this case, it showed up as Android 1.0 in the device manager.) I reinstalled it and manually browsed to the HTC folder in x86 Program Files after downloading and installing HTC Sync. It installed these drivers, showed up as MyHTC Phone, and I profited from my bloated factory Sense 4.1+ phone :)

In case anyone else was wondering, here are the steps:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2017525

Let me amend his steps:

1. When you boot back into your bootloader, go into Fastboot.

2. Make sure you uninstall any PDANet drivers or all drivers you had on your phone while rooted/ROM'd up.

3. Download HTC Sync Manager and install.

4. Disconnect your phone from USB and reconnect.

5. Install drivers manually from HTC folder in Program files x86.

6. Run RUU.

Going to attempt to unlock the bootloader again, shouldn't have any issues since I took care of that initially before I rooted this phone. I hope that I have solved a few people's issues who might have been like me scourging the internet hopelessly for help.

Hello XDA

I have been a passive reader to XDA for a very long time. Finally came the day when “search” is not enough. :angel:

Short story. I’ve installed BT/USB Joystick Center. Configured it, and then I realized I have a problem.

For the right stick axis are messed up. Z is switched with Rotate Z so they are like rotated 90 deg to the left.

I have made some research and found out it can be fixed by specific .kl file.

After checking my Vendor and Product ID (0xf30 and 0x112) converting it from hexadecimal to decimal (3888 and 0274) and changing file name (Vendor_3888_Product_0274.kl) I’ve pasted it to system/usr/keylayout. At the end I removed all files form the folder (ofc except Generic.kl).

Many users reported it did the trick for them but for me it didn’t.

Any ideas how to fix it?

Im was on Gingerbread stock rom recently.... Then i flashed it with cm 7.2..... But now i wanna try Cm 9.1 so does my phone needs to be in stock ics rom before i can flash cm 9.1 or can i just flash it over cm 7.2???

And one more thing.... Is it neccessary to flash the kernel that came with cm 9.1????
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] premsrj:
You don't need to be running stock ICS to flash CM 9.1 .But you have to do a full wipe before flashing CM 9.1. And yes you definitely have to flash the kernel of CM 9.1.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
All you need is a custom recovery to flash whatever version of Android that's available for your phone. You don't need to be running a stock version prior to it. And you need to flash the CM9.1 kernel before flashing the ROM. Kernels get flashed along with the ROM usually, but some phones need the kernel to be flashed separately due to partially unlockable bootloaders. When the bootloader is fully unlocked, the boot.img can be flashed to the /boot partition in recovery itself. But for phones with only partially unlockable bootloaders, the boot.img has to be flashed separately using a computer.

I'm really only interested in the kernel source. I've downloaded the device/Asus/grouper and kernel/tegra repos, and honestly I can't make sense of either of them.

I think the kernels are all 3.1.10, but I don't want to get distracted by any insignificant (for my purposes) changes.

Thanks Harry, but I already downloaded the kernel/tegra repo. There is only one file that could contain the source -- /tegra/.git/objects/pack/pack-e87b183b176e2edfb220e041e98db2f565d5c725.pack. My system tells me it's a Pack200 Java archive, and that I don't have an application installed for it.

Since you said kernel/tegra was the correct repo, I guess I have the source. I'm sure the kernel is C, with some assembler thrown in, so it can't be a Java archive. So now my question is: how do I extract the source from this file?

[7" Kindle Fire HD General] hkk:
I've been looking to buy a nexus 10, until a week or so ago, Amazon dropped the price of KFHD 8.9 from $299 to $250 for just one day though (using a coupon). It got my attention, since the price difference is big enough ($150 less compared to 16GB N10). I checked out the device at Staples, and really like form factor. Very light, and soft touch grippy material. I'd like to buy one, but have a few questions that I am trying to get answered. Hope some of the owners of KFHD 8.9 can help.

1. I tried out the device, and the Amazon UI wasn't very appealing. Will need to install CM10 to be usable for me. From looking around the forums, CM10 is still under development, and not fully functional yet. Can anyone speak from personal experience?

2. Browser

A lot of what I'll use this device is for browsing. Amazon's 'Silk' isn't exactly that. Loading of pages takes a while, scrolling choppy, and pinch to zoom, at hit or miss. Has anyone tried alternatives to the browser? Dolphin, boat, any others? How good/bad is it for browsing with multiple (5-6) tabs open at the same time?

Appreciate your time, and TIA.

2. Loaded default ICS browser and works great and feels faster than Silk. Will post a link if you need, I found it on KF HD 7 forums in a post with useful applications when rooted.

Both launcher and browser were loaded in system/app.

I install nightlies of CM10 onto my nexus 7 original 16GB every time one is released (which is probably not a good thing but there you go) and i upgraded from the release on 15/12/2012(4.1.2) to the release on (4.2) (I missed a day) but when i had installed i couldn't open Google Play Store which was strange and my favorite live wallpaper 'Microbes' wasn't on the device so i tried to downgrade back to the nightly from 15/12/2012 which was still downloaded on my device. This went smoothly until it came to the first boot where it has been stuck at the CM10 boot animation which is spinning but doesn't stop.

Does anybody know what has happened that could help me? I think it might be something to do with downgrading from 4.2 to 4.1.2. Also i use the CM Downloader that is built into Settings > About

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BandaPear:
From these and from what i've found when fastboot flashing, i suspect that the either the bootloader changing when upgrading to 4.2.1 from 4.1.2 or the kernel changing caused you the trouble when trying to go back. if you want to check, you could try going into fastboot and see what bootloader version you have, and then try going back to the 4.1.2 build and checking that again. next, compare these with the bootloaders for stock 4.2.1 and 4.1.2. I suspect that in order to move back you would need to do what you did to move back to 4.1.2, then use fastboot to flash the older bootloader to allow it to work. But i'm not certain on that.
