They are unlocked from factory, gotta run the scripts or do them manually for permaroot, I think his problem is the method he's using is for the G3 d851 with the 10c build but he's got the 10r, I've got him in PM now, trying to find something for 10r, haven't found it yet, still looking but I'm not sure there IS anything for the 10r. That's gonna suck if there isn't.
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
you could use fastboot to flash the recovery if its not disabled/removed. im not that familiar with the tmo variant, fastboot is disabled on verizon.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Neither am I, don't use tmo, don't even know if the 10r has fastboot either, that was going to be a suggestion if I can verify it has it.

There may not be anything for him. I'm investigating other one clicks for it, may not pan out though.
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
he tried this and it doesnt work?

B. With stock recovery (Need ADB):
1. Download & extract zip
2. Move recovery.img to internal storage.
3. Open terminal window/command prompt to execute following commands
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
exit
exit
adb reboot recovery

actually, it wont get root, so the answer to my own question is no lol
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You do mean a terminal on pc and not emulator through phone right? He's not rooted, doesn't it require root to do either one? I've always had to be rooted to run commands, I know adb works without root but it doesn't ket you do much. Thanks that's new to me, ill remember that.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yes, downgrading seems to be his route, that was an all else fails option if there was nothing else, it would have been a suggestion because that's the way this S3 I'm on had to be done, wasn't sure of how safe it was for the users device though, I was checking on that but hadn't found anything.

Hi,

I might be in the wrong thread, but I saw the words "HELP THREAD" and thought I'd get some answers here. I'm still learning my way around rooting and installing custom roms. I just installed CM12 on my T Mobile Samsung Galaxy S lll from this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2978376

Before that I had CM11 Snapshot M3 and I was completely satisfied with it. Now that i want to go back to CM11 i dont know how and I forgot to create a backup before I installed CM12. I was hoping someone could help me out since I clearly don't know everything I'm doing. :( Any help??
[General Questions and Answers] cresch07:
I looked but didn't see any. There were some that were close to no cigar. I got it so if i test the command (give the written command rather than spoken) it works just fine. Now to get it when the screen is off, and voice activated.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Just find the CM11 for your device and your Gapps, download them and store them in the root of your extsd then boot to recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache, then install zip, install from sdcard1, flash ROM, flash Gapps, reboot, do setup wiz, when phone is fully booted and you are through with setup wiz and you are in system boot back to recovery and make a nandroid backup, then you won't have that problem again.

[HELP]Wiping particular data from my android phone.

i would like to know how can i wipe a particular data in android by programming any api or any other method will be helpfull..thanx in advance

i will be more specific i would like to know about deleting data from memory location for given data inode entry from android file system.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you are looking to delete data for certain apps (I'm assuming this is what you mean), a couple of ways, go to system settings/application manager, find your apps and clear their cache, data and defaults, if you are looking to delete app data left over after uninstalling or deleting an app then go to your android folder in file manager, apps store data there, find the data for whichever app and delete it. Is this what you were asking, you clarified your request but not quite clearly.
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
You want to delete data from what?
[General Questions and Answers] Planterz:
Unlocking the bootloader will essentially do a factory reset. I believe any other data (photos, music, whatever) gets wiped too. The reason for this is security; with an unlocked bootloader someone could pull stuff from your phone even without an screen unlock password, so everything gets wiped when the bootloader gets unlocked.

An unlocked bootloader is required to install TWRP and then flash SuperSU.

Regarding the above 2 questions, there might be an easier way to do things that you're unaware of. Depending on the version your 1+1 ships with, you might be able to root it using Towelroot (4.3 or earlier). If you can, then rooting is extremely simple, and you can use BootUnlocker to unlock (and re-lock) the bootloader. And using BootUnlocker to unlock the bootloader does not wipe your data. From there, use TWRP Manager to install TWRP. All done without your computer.

I can't answer the question about OTAs from OP/CM if you're rooted. If not, you can unroot in SuperSU, do the OTA, then flash superSU again. If not, flashing is pretty easy. Many custom ROMs do support OTA updates.

Again, I can't speak for OTAs, but if you flash from recovery, recovery stays, and bootloader remains unlocked.

There's options within TWRP to do back-ups and restores. I honestly don't know if TWRP/CWM nandroids are useable with the other's recoveries. Just stick with TWRP, it's far better. I've never heard of recovery being corrupted.

There is a file manager within TWRP. It's a bit clunky and frustrating, but it works. You have to unplug USB to get into fastboot and recovery because you do. It won't do it otherwise.

Clock speeds are one reason to use a custom kernel. Other reasons include controlling things like volume output, screen gamma/colors, different governors, touch-to-wake ability/methods, etc. Flashing an update or ROM flashes the stock (for that ROM) kernel as well. Flashing the stock kernel before doing an update is sometimes recommended/required.

Android partitions the internal storage into various sectors. One is an emulated external SD card partition. This partition remains untouched when doing wipes/restores/flashes within recovery unless you screw up and accidentally do it. Don't drink and flash.

No problem, and welcome to the light.

[General Questions and Answers] Lord AJ:
Your battery might have gotten bad. Bloatware and other apps running in background do increase battery drain and with those many apps running it definitely sucks battery but the battery life comparison you mentioned doesn't seem normal. What I feel is that this problem is related to the battery itself but removing bloatware and other apps that keep syncing in the background (Facebook, Whatsapp etc are the biggest culprits here) and/or installing a kernel that has better battery management or a custom ROM will definitely help.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Sorry, but I believe there is, names are being spelled wrong, completely different, a name will be showing completely correct, yet when quoted it shows different in the quote. I am speaking from experience, I use tapa and quoting is done with just a click but it still screws the quote up even when what is quoted is unaltered before quoting, this is a verifiable occurrence for more than myself. I could almost agree with you if it were not for my own experience.

It may just be tapa because the quotes no longer show just a username, they now show "originally posted by ______", they must have done some kind of changes that caused this issue in the process because before it would show the quoted users name in the left corner of the quote box and it would say "view original" in the right corner, if it was an update to something it still makes no sense because I haven't updated my tapa.

Ermahgerd...you the real MVP!

What do you mean by the stock kernel (in the last sentence) and where can I find it? I've been through here and it doesn't seem to have the stock one. Only custom ones like AK, franco etc.

EDIT: I found the stock kernel via a search here and here. I am not sure if there are different variants of this stock kernel for the two OnePlus One models, but is there a way to back it up by my own? Would that be a wiser thing to do or am I better of using the ones I found online?

Just to clarify what I understood from what you said, let's say I was on CM11S with the stock kernel. I do all the unlocking, custom recovery installing, rooting and then flash a custom ROM (e.g. CM12 nightly build) with a compatible custom kernel (let's take AK for example since it works with CM12). Now there's a big update that I want to flash too, so I flash back to the kernel that came with my device, flash the ROM via TWRP and flash AK kernel back again? Is that correct?

oooooo....the light is so bright that it's blinding me, but I like it! :victory::victory::victory:

On a different note, as a newbie, I should stick to Original Android Development for the most stable and official ROM release and if I wanted to tinker I should be using ROMS from the Android Development sub (the non-Original one)?

Notifications Font

Hi there,

Long time away from Android, returning with a Xperia Z3 Dual... I can see that lots of things have changed (and are way better!) from my Atrix / S2 experience!

I am quite in love with the Z3 and, tbh, would like to keep it stock. Right now, the only thing that bothers me is the proportion between fonts. If I choose the smalest font available through the settings UI, things get quite where I want, except for some titles and the notifications font size. They are... huge! I have downloaded a program to scale down the font size, but it does it system-wide... and choosing the smalest readable one still does not affect the notifications font size that much.

Are there any apps that might enable me to reduce only the notifications font size (without root)?

Thanks in advance!

Let me poke around and see if I can find something for you. Almost all ROMs are built for a specific phone, and yes attempting a cross-platform installation is dangerous. However, there are some exceptions. For example, I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S3, but I am using an AT&T Lollipop ROM because I didn't like the ones for the T-Mobile version. AT&T and T-Mobile use almost exactly the same hardware. Are you sure its Mediacom? MTK looks like Mediatek.

The GS3's are somewhat of an exception, very little difference in all the variants, that's why the unified ROMs work well for all of them with little issue, they will all flash with no problem on any S3, just have to do what you did with a few build prop edits and a couple other minor tweaks so that everything works and your phone doesn't want to think its another.
