I installed the latest version of SuperSU from the play store. After that I ran it and went to settings. I scrolled all the way to the bottom. I tapped on the enable pro features button even though I didn't have pro. The underneath the button changed to "Pro features are enabled even if you didn't buy pro". A message box told me to restart SuperSU and I did. I had the pro version! For free! No piracy!

Nice find, and it just shows how awesome Chainfire is. Funny that one of the guys who really deserves our money is generous enough to not demand it.

Would like to give this a try, but can't really be bothered to uninstall the pro key I have :)

Chainfire deserves our support, this is just another way in which he shows us why he deserves it!

[Android Apps and Games] LordManhattan:
Donate a buck or two to Chainfire if you can. He deserves it.
[Android Apps and Games] famewolf:
Wonder if this is related to the fact clockworkmod just released a free open source "superuser" app [ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.superuser&feature=nav_other ] that provides most if not all the pro features and fully supports android 4.2.
[Android Apps and Games] Mattix724:
Thanks for the info. I'm a big supporter of Chainfire and recommend his apps to everyone I meet that has a rooted Android device. I'll definitely be adding SuperSU to the apps that I've already purchased from Chainfire.
[Android Apps and Games] annoyingduck:
I have owned the pro key forever, and I typically love these threads, but I really do wish this wasn't posted as chainfire is really awesome and deserves all that he can get. So I really don't know if I like this thread of not!! But thanks anyways for the find :p

I purchased numerous Chainfire apps way back, including SuperSU which I use and some I have no use for at all simply to support his efforts. Yeah, maybe I am strange. ;)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RedRaz0r:
Hey guys! I have a Galaxy SII SGH-T989 and I'm trying to use the wifi tethering on it for free, without paying their crappy $14.99 per month extra. I've tried 3rd party apps, can't see the network on my other devices. I uninstalled the tethering provisioning app with titanium backup, and now when i start the tethering I can't connect any devices to it, I receive an error on the devices saying couldn't connect. Is there anything I'm doing wrong, or anything I can do to make this happen? I'm willing to try anything. I've looked everywhere, and none of the solutions I've found are working. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!

EDIT: When running WiFi Tether, when I check the log, The following things say failed on them:

Setting ad-hoc mode...

Setting essid...

Setting channel...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RedRaz0r:
After hours of trying, i found a temporary fix. I backed up my room and installed cyanogenmod, and the wifi tether worked great on that. However, id really rather stick with my stock rom, i enjoy having the full functionality of syncing with my google account, syncing my apps, etc. So if there is some type of fix that would work that would be awesome, i really dont want to have to backup and restore everytime i want to tether. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jrosetto:
Use wifi tether from the market. You have to be rooted and set the app to your phone model in settings.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DaveinSoCal:
You can still sync your information with a ROM. As long as you are logging in with your Gmail account and click the option during setup to sync the information, it will be there. My ROM is in my signature, and the tethering works great, just have to click to turn it on.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venomio:
Hi guys, having an odd problem.

I've made some nandroid backups (about three) via CWM Recovery, and I can't seem to browse to them, or delete them.

It's definitely taking up space, and I'm not sure what to do now.

A backup that I made straight to my external SD card however, seems to be browse-able, so I'm a bit confused now.

Attached are some screenshots from ES File Browser (with root access turned on).

The last screenshot is going to /storage/sdcard0/clockworkmod/ (same directory, but now I can't seem to see anything about "backups").

I've also tried to delete these backups straight from CWM Recovery, but CWM says that it can't access the folder.

Oddly enough, if I do another backup (straight to internal), it seems to put all the files in /sdcard/Clockworkmod/backups but never to be accessed again.

Anyone have any ideas?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Delete via Windows Explorer .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venomio:
Thanks for the suggestion, but nope, that didn't work. (Obviously tried that first).

The folder was shown as empty via Windows.

After a lot of digging and trying different things (including Root Explorer and Terminal Emulator), I've managed to delete it.

I'll post the instructions so other people who may have similar problems in the future can follow it.

First, you'll need ADB and you'll need to reboot into CWM Recovery.

Once you've gotten that sorted, boot into CWM Recovery and go to "mount and storage" and then select "mount /data".

This will mount the /data structure which we need to use.

Afterwards in CMD, use the following:

adb root
adb shell

After this, you should be logged in as ~ (root)

Proceed to go into the directory using the cd function. (PROTIP: Use the ls function to check where you're going.)

You need to get to ../clockworkmod/backup/

You'll find that you can finally access the /backup/ folder, and you'll then be able to delete the files. Please note that the below command will delete ALL the files within this folder.

rm -rf *

Afterwards, do

cd ..

to get back to the ../clockworkmod/ folder and then run the below code to delete the now empty /backup/ folder:

rmdir backup

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cmstlist:
I understand that the hidden band select menu on Samsung devices (accessible by a star code) is a TouchWiz feature and not from stock Android.

So I was just wondering - are there any ICS or higher ROMs available for the Galaxy Exhibit that still have a functional hidden menu with band select options? Presumably this means the ROM would have to be based on porting ICS TouchWiz from another device rather than being AOSP-based.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] smartguy044:
im going to say no...all roms ics or higher are aosp based
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cmstlist:
OK fair enough. I just know that on HTC devices for example, you often see ports from newer devices to older, e.g. Incredible S ROM ported to the Desire HD. So I wondered if something similar had happened yet on the Exhibit.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] smartguy044:
the problem with that here is there isnt a device with close enough software with a newer version os to port from
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cmstlist:
There are some lower end newer Samsung devices with ICS such as the Ace 2. But yeah I guess it'd depend how similar the hardware is.
[LG Optimus 3D] jocazmaj:
I was on paranoid 4.1.2 rom with ibluemind's latest cm10 kernel(3.3.2013.) and twrp 2.2.2.1 and I flashed the latest cm-10-20130303-NIGHTLY-p920.zip rom from here:

http://get.cm/?device=p920

I played around with it and when pushed my power button and choose "boot into recovery" the phone boots into recovery whatever I do!

I mean i tried to restore my backups and twrp finishes the proccess but the phone boots into recovery again. I flashed paranoidandroid, Darkroom v2 and xballs5.2 but it booted into recovery every time.

Then I reflashed wkparks 1.25a bootloader files, I reflashed twrp and tried but the result was the same.

After that I reflashed cwm...same.

Help please.:(
[LG Optimus 3D] JunDavis:

[LG Optimus 3D] lzzar:
Sv: [Q] What ever I do the phone boots into recovery..

This is a bug on wkparks 1.25 u-boot. You should never press the 'boot to recovery' from the power menu or you will end up in a recovery loop. The only thing to do now is to either reflash xbsa ics .bin from flashtool or 21e

[LG Optimus 3D] jocazmaj:
I figured that out last night, I just couldn't stay still and wait for reply.:D

After 4h of trying everything that I could think of I reflashed ported xbsa ics, rooted, installed recovery and restored my twrp backup.

I didn't know about that bug..

Thanks
[LG Optimus 3D] iodak:
You can install kernel on recovery partition, boot, then reboot normal and install recovery again.

That is faster then flashing .bin.

Sv: [Q] What ever I do the phone boots into recovery..

With which command in fastboot? :p

Or open some kernel cwm zip and change updater script to install on partition 6 (recovery partition) boot.img is on partition 5.

Hi All

I bet this is going to sound a really stupid question but....

If I use Hyperterminal and dualser commands to get the unlock code.... what do I do with the unlock code once I've got it in order to unlock the phone! How is it input and where??

Bet you-re all laughing now!

Rog
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Peter Poelman:
If you have obtained the unlock code using the serial cable and Hyperterminal, insert a SIM from a provider that your phone is not simlocked to. Your phone will prompt you to enter the 8-digit code. Once you do, your phone will be forever unlocked.

Using The Manipulator, and just hitting 'unlock' will also work, and is just as safe.

Nah, there's already enough places on the net for people to get laughed at for asking a simple question.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] whatsitsnamenow:
HSPA works out of the box (assuming AT&T HPSA is available in your area). Lte is a no go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
so i decided to try out at&t for 3 days. signed up for the cheapest plan they had, i can cancel within 3 days without penalty. this way i didn't leave tmobile yet. you guys are right i don't get LTE but man is my service better soo far. 4 full bars in my home and area. and my data speeds are almost double what im getting on tmobile. not sure what im going to do yet but im liking it soo far.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
Wait till you get the bill. My note 2 sucks data like a monster compared to my n4 and sensation. Comparable bill is 30 bucks more a month on att.

I always wondered if just turning the lte on in menu worked though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
now that my phones are paid off if i switch to at&t with my employee discount it's about the same for me. the only thing i like is i get more bars and the data speeds are more consistent. the biggest issue for us was dead spots in our area and roaming on at&t anyways. i tested the same spots with my at&t sim and i had good service. it's a tough decision because ill have to pay the tmobile EFT'S.

i already tried to use the different options for LTE and cannot use it yet, the t-889 radio LTE is still locked until we get a OTA.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] RonnieRuff:
I had LTE on Verizon. I got 24M speeds. I get 18M on HSPA+. For what I do... Play music, get email, text, use social apps it means little. All of my downloads are at home on WiFi.

On Verizon LTE had awful battery drain. I kept it turned off a lot. Hopefully TMO and ATT will not have that issue.

I would like to start by saying hi to everyone who helps to contribute on this website

its no surprise that even if we have our phone locked (with pin/pattern/password) anyone can STILL turn the phone OFF,

Making this flaw an advantage for thieves......So ive been searching around and havent beem able to find any solution to this.

Im an xperia P user, so its not possible to remove the battery (thus turn the phone off) and few persons know about reset method (power + volumen)

I would like to know if there is a way to disable/remove/hide power off option until phone is unlocked, or find a workaround to help this issue, (maybe wake up screen with camera key......etc)

I believe this is a obvious bug that Should be fixed......once this issue is resolved it would be a Must have Mod or App.....

thanks in advance.......hope we all make this happen
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alwaysadeel:
i think this option is not a bug but necessity, what will we do if we are locked out and don't remember pin/pattern etc? with a non-removable battery this will cause major disassembly.

If u can't remember your pattern or pin u shouldn't be using this feature, on the other side if u forget ur pin u can still reboot with power + volume, and access CWM.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CarlitosMendezR:
The goal is to block the thief from turning off the phone and be able to call it and find it. If they can turn it off there isn't much u can do..... Hope I make my point clear as English is not my primary language.....

I will not detail what ASEC is, how it ruines sd-ext linking (e.g. especially in Link2SD), that it can hurt performance and boot time, nor why it does nothing to deter piracy. A quick summary on this wide-spread problem with Jellybean can be found in this blog post.

From the same blog, this article explains how to disable it in sourcecode so all paid apps are installed as normal APK's - like what pre-Jellybean Android would. Full credits go to him for the original fix.

I have translated this to smali so you can apply it to any Jellybean ROM without source compile.

1) Decompile services.jar

2) Open smali/com/android/server/pm/PackageManagerService.smali in a Unix line-ending compatible editor (GEdit, Notepad++)

3) Search for this text...

android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES

... there will be only one match, within the installPackageWithVerification method.

4) Including the couple of lines after it, you should see something like this...

const-string v1, "android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES"

const/4 v2, 0x0

invoke-virtual {v0, v1, v2}, Landroid/content/Context;->enforceCallingOrSelfPermission(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V

.line 5389
invoke-static {}, Landroid/os/Binder;->getCallingUid()I

...your locals/registers (v#) may be different.

5) Before the last line - the call to getCallingUid() - add a new line...

const-string v1, "android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES"

const/4 v2, 0x0

invoke-virtual {v0, v1, v2}, Landroid/content/Context;->enforceCallingOrSelfPermission(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V

[COLOR=Green][B]and-int/lit8 p3, p3, -0x2[/B][/COLOR]

.line 5389
invoke-static {}, Landroid/os/Binder;->getCallingUid()I

...recompile and push back to device. All done.

With this mod, any APK you install from market that would usually go in an ASEC container should now install as a standard APK, allowing you to move it to sd-ext with e.g. Link2SD. If you have existing ASEC apps already, uninstall and reinstall them.

Enjoy the extra internal space and no more headaches :)

Thanks for this. I tried it, however, and it's not working for me. I'm on the Galaxy Note II LL4 base (4.1.1) and when I make the change and then try to install an app, I get "Package has a bad manifest" and the app will not install. I'll look later to see if there are any other checks that need to be disabled but might you know what is going on? I was able to find the code and add the line no problem so I'm sure I did as this guide instructs. Just not working.

OK. Could be. I'll take a look at the differences between 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 and I'll let you know if I solve this for 4.1.1.

Re: curiouscrackers... sounds like yours didn't compile correctly or the jar didn't get put back together correctly. This change won't cause a boot loop as it only affects app installations and a bootloop after modifying services.jar usually means the decompile/recompile didn't go right.

Has anyone tried this with the new Google Play 4.0.25? Since that "Package file has a bad manifest" error is coming from Google Play, I wonder if they did something in the latest version of Google Play to thwart this fix? I looked at the 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 code and even tried copying the package manager smali code over from 4.1.2 to 4.1.1 and it did the same thing.
