It may be a little late in the day for this, but on the off-chance, I'll post. Dipped my toe in the rooting pool for the first time earlier this evening, and I seem to have made a complete balls of it

Tried rooting an S4 GT-I9505 on Android 5.01 as per first 3 posts of this thread

Never considered that the version of Android I had was different from the one the root was designed for

Odin did it's job, but on rebooting the Super SU was opening, but not showing me anything

Also I was getting error messages to tell me every app had stopped working (internet, etc etc)

Google play store wouldn't open, flashing white for a second, then going blank

On rebooting again, Super SU told me I needed to update the binary, but couldn't do it

I have tried running the process from scratch again, to no avail

Tried clearing cache and data from google play store and framework services

Tried reinstalling google play store from an apk, also google play services

Think I possibly have installed the wrong version of play services, could that be the issue? Cannot see what other version to use though, as I used the one for the relevant version of android, and ARM, or so I think. (suffix 230)

Any help would be appreciated

Final number that may be relevant: I9505XXUHOJ2

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] trasabdcf:
I really need help!!

I started a few hours ago to try and update my s4 i9505 to 5.0.1. I started by flashing TWRP 3.0.2 with Odin from cf auto root zip. Worked well, even though when i first entered into recovery there was an error "recovery is not seandroid enforcing", don't know if it is part of the problem, TWRP still works. After that I made a full backup, with all 5 partitions and transfered it onto my pc, thinking I won't need it anytime soon. Boy, was I wrong! Long story short, a continued by rooting the phone, it worked initially, supersu was installed and a program said it was rooted, but after I went into recovery again, there was a stock recovery, not twrp, but also not the previous one, the original 4.4.2 stock recovery.

Anyway, i selected reboot and after the samsung s4 i9505 logo it coninued to the SAMSUNG logo, the one that blips but it would not move from there at all. I waited a little while, but still nothing. Is this a soft brick?

I also tried copying back the backup, but now twrp doesn't seet it anymore. What should I do? Please help!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
Recovery is not seandroid enforcing is not an error, it's normal if you have modified the Bootloader (by flashing a recovery).

After you flashed TWRP for the first time, did it auto reboot into recovery?

And yes, you might have a soft brick.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] trasabdcf:
No, as far as I can remember, it did not boot directly into recovery, it restarted and then went into kitkat with no problem. I then shut it down and entered recovery, asked if i want to keep read-only, said yes, because i wanted a backup with stock, made the backup and all went well, after that rooted, all went well at first, but went into recovery again, found twrp missing and replaced with other recovery, probably from cf, hit reboot at the top and after that it got stock on the SAMSUNG logo. I tried installing the backup, it did pass afterwards the logo, but only after a while, and then it went into a black screen and only showing messages with various apps stopping, like "google services stopped running". What can I do to get my phone back?

New to Samsung modding. Will this Trigger The Knox (Warranty Number)?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stylemessiah:
Did the deed on my newly acquired S4 i9095 (my S2 is was getting a bit old, and keeping it going was getting to be a drag with CM13) stock 5.01 - no drama at all, rebooted itself to recovery, ran the script, rebooted...all good. Update notification for SuperSU on GP, done, rebooted...no drama

Thanks for the OP
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
Yes it will.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JohnSmith743:
Is there a way to flash a rom / recovery without triggering it? I don't mind losing waranty or the knox app not working. But I just don't want to trigger it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Rhoban:
As far as I know, there isn't.

Flashing a custom recovery, therefore modifying the bootloader, will trigger knox.

And there aren't any custom ROMs that can be flashed with Odin.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stylemessiah:
I dont know why people are trying to find ways to not set off Knox on a 3 year old phone. It didnt even factor into my thought process when rooting the thing

People need to get over it, its not like youre going to try and warranty return a 3 year old device...

Just root it, then, if youre going to keep the stock 5.0.1 ROM, debloat it, either manually with a root app uninstaller or something like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adamioan.s4lollipopdebloater&hl=en

After a good debloat its down to under 50% ram usage and great screen time

I only just retired my s2 when i got the S4 the other day...i rooted that immediately after i got it too...warranty what warranty...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JohnSmith743:
IF I root the phone on the stock 5.0.1 touchwizz rom, it will just disable the Knox app right? Not any other app like galaxy apps or group play or stuff like that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] tw1st3d83:
You will not disable anything... unless you want to...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] JohnSmith743:
So no annoying pop ups from the knox app for root access?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stylemessiah:
No, unless you actually run the Knox app itself you wont see it or any effect of it...i didnt

But no, rooting it will not remove Knox as part of the process using CF-Auto-Root

I removed Knox later via the app mentioned in my post

Reflashed the ROM after system format , all good now ...shall I try again ?

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] janis605:
A boot loop? I can't explain that. The worst thing to happen is that the NavBar dissappears. But a bootloop? Hmm. You can try again, this time just try to apply the "backup" if you run into a bootloop again, I think I know what the problem is...
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] xanthrax:
OK , have changed the ROM and reinstalled busybox , no boot loop but no soft keys and notification bar ... Can't go back or home or ... Slim here

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] janis605:
Did the preview in the top section change to the ones you selected after the half reboot?

Edit: I can now look at the screens and since the top section does not show the softkeys currently used, the ROM you are using is not using the normally used png files and/or you got a theme applied, that changes the Softbuttons.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] xanthrax:
Oh yeah , I'm using a theme , I've performed a full reboot to get back on my home screen but the app forced close when trying to access it to apply backup. BTW , save and backup are on the same button

Would be nice to add more buttons yo be themed but I think is already on your to do list :thumbup:

Keep on !

sent from my Darkside of Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] janis605:
The colors, well that's due to the ROM probably changing them, a lot do that. But I don't know what you exactly mean by "more buttons"?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] xanthrax:
... power button ... and the rest of them ... you know how many there are ... to be themed

i had 5 buttons but the power one ( the fifth) has no corespondent for theming ... get it ?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lowrider262:
Works fine for me. Thanks:thumbup:
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] janis605:
Well, that's more a thing of your ROM or Theme, and a power button is not aosp, that means the feature would probably not work on most devices.

Will release today anyway. Thank you all for the tests. I will come back to you with a present, just let me know your gmails/PlayStore accs. :)

Nexus 7 Problem

Doesn't work on my Nexus 7. When I apply any new Buttons the device reboots and after that it doesn't show any Softkeys at all (And my Wallpaper is gone). I have to go to the app and start a Backup (Which works just fine). I use a N7 with a rootet Stock-Rom (4.2.2) and Busybox 1.21.0 Free. When you need more detailed information just ask.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] janis605:

Hi..

I tested the apk you provided for Nexus 7 and it works like a charm for me!

I have PACman ROM flashed, which also provide the AOKP engine that gives the chance to change NavBar buttons, both command and icons. But I find your application useful anyway, plus it has wonderful icon! ;)

If I can suggest you one more step, for the future, I think it could be interesting to give the user more power.. For example actually we are locked to the 5 commands you choose (indeed the most common); but I love to have the Last App switch instead of the Menu, which is often included by default into most of the ROM I flashed..

BTW, again, thanks for for your work!

I hope that this version could work for others nxs7 users, too! ;)
