Options?

I currently have a sm-n900t (note 3 t-mobile) running 5.0 it's on its last leg and to extend its life I figured I would root it to free up bloat and so I can finally take advantage of my unlimited data with a mobile hot spot. The problem is I can not find a root method that works. I do not own a pc . So if anyone else knows of any other lesser known methods I would be grateful.

Otherwise I'm going to buy a new phone which brings me to my 2nd question. Samsung just seems to be a hassle when it comes to rooting from what I've been reading. (Unless you own a pc) so what phone should I go for? Only requirement is rootable out of box without pc. (I have a mmo addiction problem so buying a pc is out off the question)

Thanks

I've a problem with my android partition

I've using Lenovo p780 8gb row and yesterday I flash it with miui v 7 6.5.5. And it shows miui use my SD card as internal storage so it's so many empty space on rom with 8gb miui only use 755mb. And I think to repartition it and create new partition for internal storage. And I found HK rom editor. and I create 2,5gb for internal and restart my device to recovery. After I flash my rom back it shows 2,5gb for rom and still use my SD card for internal storage. And I found unmounted partition named mmcblk0p9 with size 2.88gb

Anyone know how to format and use it as internal storage?

thank you so much!

The phone is a Virgin Mobile LG Optimus F3 (aka LG VM720 http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phones/lg-VM720-optimus-f3 ).

The issue:

1- Right now I can see the boot screen but it will not boot into recovery with the keys.

2- I had it on the wall charger overnight, but it reports only 1% charged (WTF?!). I just checked again and now it's up to 3% on the USB cable to my Windows 10 x64 computer. Somehow the charging icon got deleted, so it gives a text readout only.

3- I am able to use

adb reboot bootloader

and

adb shell

. It has Busybox installed. I am a complete newb at adb and fastboot, so I keep failing to do

adb install

and

adb push

sucessfully. Sometimes

fastboot devices

returns results and sometimes it doesn't.

4- I've hard-reset the phone twice by removing the battery.

5- I had ROM Manager by ClockworkMod installed, but that's probably been deleted or corrupted badly by my fumbling.

I will be happy to answer any questions. Thank you so much!

http://androidforums.com/virgin-mobile-optimus-f3-all-things-root/779320-unbrick-vm-sprint-f3.html

It seems a common mistake lately, with the expansion of one-click root methods, that rooting a phone means that a custom ROM is all but installed, this is not the case. If the bootloader is not unlocked, in most cases, a custom recovery is not an option. The developers of some of these root apps fail to mention that, not that it's required. Every phone is different.

Update: Right now I cannot enter download mode. Battery is at 91%.

I can get the Battery screen with no major trouble.

I think I'm in a bootloop ? I try to turn the phone off by pressing and holding the power button for several seconds, and the phone turns back on with the LG boot screen showing.

When I remove the battery and try download mode by pressing BOTH Volume Up and Volume Down and the power button, I *think* the download mode flashes very quickly then vanishes.

Thanks again for help!!!!!!!!!

I am running 5.1 and I have a few questions please:

1. I tried accessing recovery mode (volume up + power button) to wipe my cache. I do not see an option to do so, just a bunch of test options *and* an option for factory reset. Am I on the wrong screen? (Is CCleaner a good alternative?)

2. I do not have an option to manage DST settings in the native clock. Is this normal or it's a result of the manufacturer's restrictions?

3. My phone keeps restarting when I play webm in my browser (Firefox). The app is up-to-date and I've already cleared it's cache but it still happens. Is there a way to troubleshoot this further? (This is the reason why I am trying to wipe the device's cache.)

How to repack system.img
[General Questions and Answers] KrimsonHart:
well, good to know that you have tried all those and good to know your phone does load the boot screen at least :D

here are a few other things you can try before we move on.

1- try

adb reboot recovery

see if the phone reboots to recovery (apologies if you have already tried that). if it goes to the recovery mode, you can flash your stock ROM and you win.

2- if you don't go to recovery mode by that, download the latest TWRP/CWM recovery for your phone, go to fastboot mode and try

fastboot flash recovery <recovery-file-name>.img

this should flash your recovery freshly in case it is corrupted or anything. Now try

adb reboot recovery

and see if you can enter the recovery mode!

*hope one of these will work for you*
[General Questions and Answers] bg260:
OK, try this. Plug USB into computer, but not phone. Remove the battery, wait 10 seconds, replace battery, press the volume up button and the power button. While holding buttons attach USB cable to phone. If no, try another combination. Also try releasing buttons when you see download mode.

Constant Error Popups

As soon as I boot my phone I'm bombarded with constant popups saying that "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped", along with many other processes such as Launcher3 (mostly Google apps). Even after pressing OK it pops back up after 2-3 seconds!

Because of this I can't even use my phone anymore. Only thing I could do was get into Settings but only for a limited time since it will also crash after a few minutes.

I did a bit of research and found other people who had the same problem, but their solutions didn't work for me.

I've tried clearing the data and cache of Google Play and Google Play Services, but they wouldn't work. It seems that the "Clear Data" and "Clear Cache" buttons wouldn't work. I tried disabling and deactivating Services but it wouldn't work for me either.

I also tried disabling Sync and deleting my accounts but the delete button wouldn't work.

I didn't know what to do from there so I just decided to factory reset my phone, but after rebooting no data was erased!

What should I do??!!

Phone is Huawei Ascend Y520

Hi..

I have used several android devices but found only Acer Z630s which automatically uses external memory card as the preferred location for saving all the data, even the whatsapp content is automatically saved in the external sd card.

I wish to know that is it the choice of the manufacturer that whether they want to use this feature or not?

Because earlier I had heard that Google doesn't allow saving data on sd card in KitKat and later versions.

And can we do this manually in any phone without rooting? I mean I want to save my all app data in the external sd card like whatsapp. So, is it possible in any mobile which is not rooted? If yes, then pls let me know how..

Well, it should happen that way by default. If in case it doesn't (like in my phone) , this is how I achieve what I do.. Go to Settings>Storage>Preferred Install (Storage) location>external SD.
