[ROOT] for 2.2.1/2.2.2 GingerBreak APK thread

Okay, first things first, LOVE the noob video.

I found the GingerBreak-v1.20.apk in the above mentioned thread and downloaded same. Am I to assume that in order to root my LG Optimus One P500 running Android 2.2.1 (presumably the now legendary 'Gingerbread') that I simply biff the apk into my microSD, run it from the phone and wait? Without having to have it connected to the net via the USB (other than for power) as with all the other techniques I've been too scared to try?

Thanks for the understanding, Android is still new to me.

right place for noob question

Hi guys,

As stated above, noob video/faux rant made me chuckle.

my question isnt that specific, and probably has been answered many times over, but not in a specific thread that i could find through search.

its simply this:

is there/are there any negative consequences to repeatedly flashing your device?

for example, ive had a LG P880 for 2 weeks, and already ive flashed it to JB twice, and back to ICS twice, also rooted and unrooted it.

does repeated flashing have any repercussions that i should be aware of?

thanks in advance,

It won't actually affect your phone if you delete cache partitions and factory reset it every time you flash roms on it but about the hardware there can be some problems for example camera doesn't work etc but no problem if you flash the right Rom for your device... I flashed on official ICS Rom cm10 then paranoid android then vipvervivo the I got back to official ics no problems at all
[General Questions and Answers] SunHounD:
Ah see, now you've lost me :p . I'm not new to flashing, but am new to.android, so cm10 just went right over my head. The only thing I've flashed are official ics and jb . And I'm not even thinking anything bootloader related till I'm more knowledgeable on the subject.
[General Questions and Answers] pausa109:
"Cached background processes" usually refers to processes that do not have a foreground activity and do not have a running service. These processes are kept in memory simply because we have enough memory to do so, and therefore, as you note, the user can switch back to these processes quickly. As Android starts to need more system RAM for yet other processes, the "cached background processes" tend to be the processes that get terminated to free up system RAM.

The pre-eminent example of a "cached background process" would be one where the user launched the app, poked around it briefly, then pressed HOME to return to the home screen. If the process does not have a running service, I would expect to find it listed as a "cached background process".

Firmware for Samsung devices comes in .tar format. Odin is the best way. Why try to extract .IMG files and rename and attempt fastboot? And not all android devices support fastboot. Adb yes, fastboot not so much.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yeah, I get the part about the .tar format, I'm not sure but I think the firmware being in .tar format is for after production purposes for devices that are already out there that need it for one reason or the other and is in .tar format to make downloads more convenient. I would think that at the manufacturing level that the devices would be originally flashed and programmed at a coding level interface such as fastboot instead of Odin even though that is the norm for us after production.

btw, I agree that Odin is the best way, but even it is something that someone independently created by using Samsung's code, I've read that Odin isn't supposed to be as easily available as it is, we aren't supposed to be distributing it freely for download everywhere, even though its done every day, I don't know how much that means or is supposed to mean though. The official way for Samsung is via kies, I would think that it would actually use .IMG files vs. .tar.

Tapped under ice from my Ice Cold lollipopped S3
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
Okay. First of all, I never said ODIN was a noob tool here. I've quoted the whole string.

While firmware and such is in .tar and not flashable in fastboot, TWRP is definitely in .img format. Rename it to recovery.img, and in fastboot fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.

What I said was, you don't need ODIN to flash recovery. I also said that one click rooting methods for noobs is bad because they will be uncomfortable in the future if they need to use it.

Sure, go ahead and flash your firmware with ODIN. No reason to convert. But what happens when you run into trouble, and are given commands to fix the issues and modify build.props? Are you going to do that with ODIN?

Good luck.

EDIT: When I was on Samsung, I was a big user of Terminal Emulator and dd commands. You are indeed correct. I just tried to use fastboot on my old S3, and it doesn't work.

So I Googled it.

Samsung doesn't have fastboot.

But.......I can tell you how to flash TWRP with terminal/dd commands. ;)
[General Questions and Answers] madbat99:
Kies uses .tar files too. That's how we get our .tars, capture them from Kies downloads. I wasn't trying to argue or anything, it just bugged me someone belittling someone else for using Odin. Calling it a noob one click. Saying fastboot is the "real" way.

I agree about toolkits being that. Its best to learn adb and fastboot and just use toolkits as a quick shortcut when you don't have time. But that's a nexus users point of view (nexus 7(2013) here). Its not the case for Samsung. Tar files are Samsung's equivalent to a factory image. The condescending remark is what prompted my comment. I use Odin for all my samsungs, and its the safest most foolproof way of flashing stock firmware to a Samsung device. Its also the best way to flash recovery. Its the same as using fastboot to flash recovery, then recovery for SuperSU. Odin flash tar of recovery and use recovery to flash SuperSU. Essentially same process, same level of difficulty. Suggesting anything else to a Samsung user is counter intuitive and counter productive.

End rant. :cool:
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
And, I'll reply again. I never said ODIN was a noob tool. When I flashed new recoveries, I did it with terminal. I didn't like hooking up my phone every time I updated. Now I have the time to hang in front of my PC and have been using fastboot more instead of dd. My noob comment was more about one click rooting methods.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yeah, I'd rather use terminal myself too. I haven't gotten into using fastboot yet, my systems arent good enough to start getting into that kind of thing with, way too slow. I'm putting a brand new system together and then I'll install all the toolkits worth using and get an environment going, I'm getting impatient with the time its taking to get all my build parts together, I'll be digging in pretty deep when its complete.

Open the app and follow through the steps, even if it is an incompatible device, then you will be taken to the menu you want, so choose MTP then if there are more steps after that; do them.

[General Questions and Answers] User17745:
It's not like you can't do things as you want.

It's simply because Xposed GEL settings aren't designed to work with your stock launcher.

At this point, all I can suggest is to decompile your stock launcher apk with something like APKtool, code your desired changes into the launcher, recompile it and install the modified apk into the ROM.

But I think your stock ROM might be odexed(most probably) and I don't know if you can play around with it like that(You most probably won't be able to).

Even if that is possible, you still need to know a little about programming to do so.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Have you tried clearing cache and dalvik cache in recovery(not factory reset)? Wipe just your caches. That may get you straight. Not much chance of this working but if that you can try using a file manager and go to your system/apps and try just reinstalling the settings apk over itself, that sometimes stops it from crashing. If its not something simple like that then it may be a kernel issue not agreeing with your root method but I kinda doubt it.

---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

Freezing Knox may be the problem, you should be using superSU to disable Knox, that should handle Knox without having to freeze it. I think your phone still sees it but can't do anything with it because you froze it, if you disable it then it should be ignored like its not even there so it doesn't cause that issue but I'm not sure about that, I avoid devices with Knox.

Is there a Galaxy Note 3 which is better than the N9005?

For example, there is a Galaxy S4 GT-i950

Is there something like that - also for the Note 3?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I haven't had to use the method but I know for those that have Knox and root their phones they have to use superSU to disable the software Knox, I don't know what has to be done with the hardware Knox, it has both hardware and software involved, its the software Knox that you disable.
