IM ROOTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Bender B. Rodgriguez:
In the root thread someone mentioned that his LTE speed s suck3d after rooting. Seems unlikely to me but can anyone confirm or deny this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cl_l:
Omg I love you. Can anyone confirm it works without any unwanted side effects? Goodbye bloatware! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Cali3350:
I used it. Worked fine. Root everywhere!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] zedomax:
Root does not mess with LTE signals in any way whoever told you that did not know what he was talking about.

Mine the same as yesterday. ..and thats with a New Mexico (Albuquerque) server...idk why as I live in SoCal (Orange County) and yesterday I was connected to an LA server
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Bender B. Rodgriguez:
I would not think that it would but am cautious because the phone is literally 5 hours old and we dont yet have any working recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ZPaul2Fresh8:
About 36 hours old for some. Mine working great. Removed all the ATT Bloat ware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] highaltitude:
No side effects other than saying Unlocked and the padlock Icon after removing ATT apps upon booting up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] freebee269:
this might work for unrooting. If you still have root, just use root explorer and delete two files:

1) /system/app/Superuser.apk

2) the second file is su, and it could be in one of three places, depending on how you rooted:

/system/bin/su OR

/system/sbin/su OR

/system/xbin/su

That's it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vic450:
Zedomax, this is great, thank you.

After trying it, I seem to be stuck on step 4 -- "Step 4. Connect a micro-USB cable from your Galaxy S4 to your computer, you should see “Allow USB debugging” window pop-up on your phone, hit “OK”."

I'm not seeing "Allow USB debugging" window pop up on my phone. Is there a way to force this or am I missing something? The instructions seem pretty straight forward.

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Bender B. Rodgriguez:
Make sure usb debugging is enabled and make sure you install the ueb drivers from the samsung website. Had the same problem and the drivers were the cause.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vic450:
Thanks Bender, appreciate your pointer. I've made sure of the usb debugging mode (is on) and have now downloaded the usb drivers from several sources including the last at samsung site. :( Unfortunately, I am still not getting “Allow USB debugging” window pop-up on your phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dbg11235:
I never received a pop up asking me to turn on USB Debugging. I enabled the developer options as shown in the video, then went into the options and checked USB Debugging. That was all I had to do to enable it.

Thank you OP for showing how to get to the developer options!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] fukenbiker:
same thing

I am not getting "allow USB debugging" window to pop up on my phone either.

I'm showing the phone on the computer.

I tried 'camera mode' in debugging instead of media device. I had some errors in drivers, got it all back to where computer sees phone and no yellow exclamation point in "Computer Device Manager", and fiddled around quite a bit and still no window popping up on phone like in video.

What am I missing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] zedomax:
Skip the step and check your phone again after running the script, it should pop up then.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] fukenbiker:
thanks!

That worked. I just ran motochopper and followed instructions in the dos window and the phone had it finally pop up and it all worked great

thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vic450:
Thanks Fukenbiker (for noting it was happening with you too [so I'm not that crazy]) and Zedomax for the video, instructions and update.

I figured out my problem. Me. And the 'puter I was using is wonky and (I am) very noob. It worked on another machine as you said (in the updated instruction) and the message popped when I ran the motochopper.

Anyone interested in making a Miui theme? Although there are tons of themes available I feel like they are too colorful and over the top. I like the simplicity of Miui. It would be great to see one :) thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
i have no idea what that is, but you would probably need permission from the dev to use the theme...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jvjidNite:
Oops meant Miui. Sorry
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
no problem. even still you would need the devs permission to use his work. plus i believe it's available for certain launchers in the play store.

Download the MiHome apk, and it essentially gives you the look and feel of MIUI w/o having to install a ROM. I have messed around with it already.. pretty slick :good:

Has anyone tried the RoamControl app on the stock One? (non rooted)

Just want to run stock for a little while to make sure everything works well when I get my phone next week. I will be rooted shortly after, but I do like the widget on that app to switch roaming modes.

Peace.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
You have to be rooted to use roam control
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mrshades812:
No you do not. I used it on my EVO 4g and 3D before I got root on those devices. It even states that it will work on some non rooted phones on their website. I sent an email to the dev, but I don't expect him to get back to me before I get the phone. Lol
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] allynsky:
I used it today and it works great.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mrshades812:
Great news! Thanks for the reply!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bwlinux:
I tried it on my unrooted HTC one, the app takes very long time to try roaming, but fails. I checked it under about, it says "Not roaming". How did you make it work, thanks.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mntbkr:
I'm rooted, using v 1.4 of roam control which had been reported to work with the one.

my set up: using PRL 01115

Mobile data > network mode > automatic

Domestic voice and data are checked.

I am able to force the phone to roam and the roaming 3g speeds are at least double that of sprint's 3g speeds.

hope that helps.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bwlinux:
Thanks.

So it appears we can no longer use RC on multiple devices with the same activation code.

They are offering RC for $1.00 for a short time so jump on it :D

I have it installed on my HTC Evo LTE and my HTC One
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] spurfan33:
just purchased it and it works great on my htc one
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rirere:
The newest 2.8 update fixed all the licensing problems for me, but their support was frankly atrocious and did not get back to me at all. By the time they pushed the 2.8 update, my 7 day window for a refund had expired, so I wasn't able to refund/rebuy at the $1.

I have no problem with paying a dev for their work, but keep in mind that their e-mail support seems very hit and miss, which is poor form.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekeem:
I rooted and installed CWM. I wanted a ROM copy to save all my data before I dive in any deeper. As I started it and it rebooted to Samsung GALAXY Note II screen and began cycling there. The boot to install or repair, remove battery methods or anything else I tried will not work or display anything but the Samsung screen..

Although I have not tried, I may be able to flash stock ROM with ODIN but I really want to save my data if possible.

Can anyone help me? Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lmike6453:
Check out the galaxy note root kit in the dev section. That has all kinds of great stuff if you can get into download mode.

Have you tried, from off state, power button+ home button+ volume up at the same time?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
Did you try a factory reset?:confused: It may fix the problem for you... just boot back into recovery just as you did with the back up.

Hi. I've been running CleanROM for a while and i've recently decided to go back to stock. I relocked my bootloader and ran the 2.20 RUU. Everything went fine and I finished the setup. I decided to do the OTA update for 3.18 so I downloaded it and ran it. My phone reboot and now it won't turn on. Have I bricked my phone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] marcur12:
Sorry for the double post, but I think i've bricked my phone :(. Look at this screenshot

You can try the unbrick evita thread. Just Google unbrick evita. You'll need to use Linux. There's a guide to making a Linux boot usb in q&a if you need it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] marcur12:

It is because you wasn't trying to s off. Go to the android development section and look for unbricking the one x.

You can also just Google unbrick evita. It will be the first result.

On first impression, I don't think so. It's fixing a completely different kind of brick from what we've got going on here. I think it would fail at the first step because the partitions won't enumerate properly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dyannant:
Hi All -

I've got a bricked HTC One XL here (tried to unroot to use Good for Enterprise) and I've been trying this method to get any life back. I'm getting stuck at step 6, with error FATAL: Module qcserial is in use.

Also, when I run ls /dev/sd* I only see /dev/sda, /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2. Am I missing something?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
The unbrick Evita thread is the only one that has a chance of working for an HTC one XL.

And you should be able to see one sdb for example with many numbers. Like in the picture in the unbrick Evita thread.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dyannant:
Hmm...okay, well what does the fact that I only see /dev/sda, /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 mean? Does it mean that I have a paperweight or is there still hope?

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
It means you have a paperweight, but it's possible you're not spamming enough for the partitions to enumerate. So I would try a few times if you haven't before giving up.

But you need those partitions to enumerate properly to be able to fix it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dyannant:
Thanks guys, I could never get those partitions to enumerate, so I've sent the phone off to HTC for repair. Let's see what happens!

Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leandronb:
hello guys, my question seems a little obvious, i know how to turn off 3g, but does my phone connect automatically in background? like in google maps, updates for play store services etc? and some apps may try to turn on my 3g connection to download something. i cancelled my data plan today and i dont want any extra charge, because here in brasil 3g plans are very expensive, 200mb=12usd, and i want to make any data connection disabled until i got another data plan. thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rishabh.raj37:
In settings go to more- mobile network and untick data enabled

If you want to be even more safe, you can go to Settings>More>Mobile Networks>Access Point Name. Delete the APN's listed there and even if you have data enabled your device won't be able to connect to data.

Also you can go into airplane mode to turn off your data and radio functions and still use WiFi. It is how I use most of my devices to save on battery life and data.

ok so i just got mk808 android stick.

came home plugged it into my tv via hdmi - mini hdmi adaptor

plugged in the usb power to a 5v - 2amp charger from my nexus 7

the screen on my tv switched over to hdmi 1 blue screen,.......and thats all

i dont have a clue what ido to start it up or anything?

i got a mele air mouse 10 thrown in the deal too which is working on my tab but yeah how do i start up this thing? the blue light comes on and the tv switched to hdmi but thats all.:confused:
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] premiatul:
The MK808 has a blue light that has to be on when powered and blinking when streaming from the net. It shoud boot up by itself after you plug it in.

Check to see that your TV is set to the right HDMI input.

I have mine on HDMI 1. Make sure that yours matches your MK808 HDMI input.

Other than that, try another TV.....
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] chismay:
thanks for your reply i managed to get it working today with a new usb cable now happily using but trying to find a way to switch it of from remote,. "air mouse f10"
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] premiatul:
If yours is rooted, install "Rom Toolbox" that it have a widget called "Reboot".

Clicking that will give you all the settings ....
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] kozmo2k4:
To reboot: instead of the full ROM Toolbox, which BTW is a great app, try Reboot Menu (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDIxMiwib3JnLnJpY2VrbmlnaHQuZ3MycmVib290Il0). That's all it does, it gives you reboot options (you must be rooted).
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] chismay:
got the power menu app :D cheers

anyone had any experience getting another tablet to work as touchpad?
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] ColinB63:
Try MK 802 lll remote app. Works on a lot of these.

ive tried droidmote and now this app but i can never find-connect to my mk808? both on same network

[Android Stick & Console Computers General] Robbzilla:
I have mine hooked to a wall outlet in my living room that has a light switch to control it... MUCH easier! :laugh:
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] kozmo2k4:
You don't want to just just "pull the plug" (or flip the switch) on the unit, it could cause filesystem corruption....

[HTC One X] hyoga68:
I have read lots of threads with the same error, but, after trying various methods, none of it worked for me...

Yesterday I upgrade my hboot from 1.12 to 1.39 (CID BSTAR301).

The firmware is for my CID, but not the same carrier.

So I relock the bootloader, flash firmware.zip on fastboot, unlock the bootloader again....

Until this, everithing was ok, but when I tried to install a rom, I can't access the sdcard via CWM....

Reboot again to fastboot, and I get the error Failed to open usb master mode.

With adb I push Sky Dragon Rom, but I can't access my sdcard from the rom, neither the pc...

I've tried:

- reflashing the firmware

- fastboot oem format (invalid command)

- reflashing everithing

- Use go-mtpfs

And nothing, I just can't access my sdcard, and I don't have a RUU tu reflash it...

Does anyone have any other suggestion???

Thanks in advance...

BTW, the hboot update was succesful, my HOX is now on hboot 1.39
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
The failed usb master mode error when you enter the bootloader is because the cable is connected. Remove the cable and try all things again.

Now for the sdcard acces, what happens when you mount the sdcard as a diskdrive inside the recovery ?

Try this :

Flash a new custom recovery

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Fastboot erase cache

http://db.tt/z07vyksQ

Try this one (rename it to recovery.img)
[HTC One X] hyoga68:
First, thanks for the answer..

I can mount the 2gb internal memory, but I can't access my 32gb sdcard...

It happens with the old recovery (CWM), and with the new one....

Also, when the phone boots up completely have the same issue...

Yesterday I was trying to send some files via airdroid, but It says that I can't.

Even if I try to format the sdcard, get an error...

Also, adb pus file sdcard pushes the file to the internal memory, not the external one :(
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Strange ! So you select in the recovery the mounts & storage menu - mount as usb storage (last option in the list) nothing comes up in windows ?

Try it with another pc ! Original usb cable, no usb hub ?
[HTC One X] hyoga68:
Sorry, didn't try to mount...

After checking it works now, thanks a lot...

I'm thinking in post the firmware to update and this solution, if you agree :D
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yeah why not ....but mounting the sdcard as an usb diskdrive is standard for at least a year already ;)

All good now ? Good ;)

CASE CLOSED ! :D

The HOX is not S-OFF you need to flash boot.img from fastboot with the command fastboot flash boot bootname.img where bootname is your name of boot.img.
