Nice tool, root was simple, I rooted and put on a custom recovery, then unlocked the phone and lost root and the recovery. Did it again and it stuck...thanks great tool. I used CWM as the recovery...now to shop for a rom....back to flashing again....and then when I mess up use odin and back to stock from SamMobile!!!! Love the Galaxy line of phones!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] proxcee:
Sorry in advance if this is a dumb question but i've read through the posts and just want to be 100% sure. Is this root method specific to Canada or will it work for any AT&T GS4? Mine says I337...not I337m. Thanks in advance.

Looks like I missed this in the first post:

Hey bhp090808,

Will this method still work on rogers I337M with the new MG1 firmware that came out yesterday?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] blyndfyre:
Doubtful as it uses the motochopper exploit which users confirmed doesn't work. You should use CF-AutoRoot as it works on MG1: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2293800
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Matt5606:
I read in the thread that this works for ALL Canadian s4 (I337), I seen people on Rogers having great success. Just wondering if anyone with telus has done this? Not gonna lie, I'm kinda nervous to attempt it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] blyndfyre:
I'm on TELUS, I use CF-Auto-Root every time without any trouble. This method uses an exploit which seems to be patched in the latest MG1 firmware upgrade.

While CF-Auot-Root doesn't install a recovery it is very easy to do so by flashing through ODIN or even easier get GooManager on the Play Store.

I used it with MG1 on telus and it rooted and worked fine! Used goomanager to install twrp. Personally I don't think there's any good roms yet. I debloated a few items, but not many, removed touchwiz, installed nova launcher which runs like a ****ing dream! Smooth as Apple. Then added greenify. Won't need a rom until something really great comes along.

Doesn't work on my Koodo S4 with MG1 firmware. Says failure at the end. Had to use CF-AutoRoot instead.

It seems this method no longer works for the i337m variant. Anyone else having any luck rooting their Canadian S4?

*edit

I was able to root with odin and cf auto root. Motochopper would certainly be a faster/easier method had I been able to root with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mdvl:
It worked. thank you. Nice way to root and install recovery. :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MattMJB0188:
I used this method earlier this year with an S4 running AMDL firmware. Sold that one lol. Found a brand new S4 with AMDL firmware, so I should have no problem running this tool again, right?

As far as I know, MF3 firmware and above cannot run this right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] doodio:
I don't know if it works it hasn't been updated in ages. Just use the Cf auto root method.

Hi , I just tried to root my sgh-337m and the root did not apply, The tool dos box just said failure after trying to root , should I use the cf root option that I see in the post above ? any plans to update the tool or any thoughts on why it didn't root for me. seems this tool was very successful in 2013 thanks,

When my XDA2 is synced (to Outlook 2k), I can view unread emails, in my Inbox, on my XDA2. I would have thought, however, that when I take my XDA2 out of the cradle, it would retain messages that are in my Outlook Inbox - whether they are read or unread. Is it not possible for me to have a copy of my Inbox on my XDA2, both read and unread? Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abo0badr:
Good Evening everyone, I have a very big problem with my samsung galaxy nexus. It started 2 weeks ago when I tried to turn ON my phone, and it randomly can't Load the system (Jelly Bean 4.2.2). When I try to Turn it ON, the Nexus Picture stock up (the green red blue yellow moving image suddenly stop) and then a MATRIX like will appear on the screen (sometimes around the nexus image there will be green lines and dots. And sometimes the whole screen will have green pixels/Dots). I thought that the system is damaged, after many trials of recovering the system, I Decided to do a factory reformat/ return to factory settings.

Since I can't access the system, I unlocked the phone , installed teamwin recovery system, and did a wipe of all the things inside the internal memory (that was the most stupid decision ever) since I lost the backup system image inside the internal sd card.

I decided all of that all because that the Galaxy Nexus don't have a external SD CARD. And since I can't do a recovery of my files (because I need to be inside Android to have a DB connection to the phone). I had no option than to wipe all System, Dalvik, Cache, and Data. Now I can't flash any android system since the Clockwork and teamwin need the android image to be inside the SD CARD. And I can't send/receive any file from/to the SD card. I already tried "Nexus Root Toolkit" and "Galaxy Nexus Toolkit". But there is no hope.

One good thing is I did install an "ICE CREAM SANDWICH image" using "Odin" (Since that was the only image I found in the internet that can be installed using Odin, but there is no luck also, when the animation is loading, the animation suddenly stop and the phone restarts.

Anyone please kindly help meif you encountered this problem before. Life without Android is so lonely. :crying::crying::crying:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cupfulloflol:
adb doesn't require the phone to be in Android, custom recoveries allow adb.

Also, as long as you can get into the bootloader, with it unlocked you can try flashing stock images via fastboot.

Hello xdadevelopers,

I have a problem. Recently I had a birthday and my friend, who lives and works in Shanghai had presented me a phone. It's Huawei w1. But there is one catastrophic problem. Since he bought the phone in China, it has chinese firmware. And the worst thing - chinese market. It doesn't have such vital applications like skype or youtube. I have tried to contact microsoft. Unfortunately, they cannot help me. Here is what they said (conversation was in russian, this is my translation):

===

MS: Ok, this means that you have chinese firmware. It's not possible to workaround it with standard methods. You need to reflash the phone with russian firmware (I believe this should not be exactly russian but any non-chinese)

MS: We cannot give you steps of how you can do this, since this will break you warranty. But you can find steps in Internet.

me: Well, but in fact I don't have warranty. The phone was bought in different country, not by me, and my friend, who bought the phone, doesn't visit fatherland more often than once a year :(

MS: Ok, I understand, but we are not allowed to provide such info and such sites are blocked for us. We are not trained for such kind of support. You can ask on forums:

MS: http://answers.microsoft.com/ru-ru/winphone/forum/wp8

MS: or

MS: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1625

MS: or you can ask Huawei support.

===

I asked on MS forum, but I doubt they have answer. I also tried to find Huawei support contacts but was unable to do so. Any link that looks like contact info leads to chinese page.

So this forum is my last hope. Please please please. I believe this forum is full of guru. Please suggest me where to find normal firmware for Huawei w1? Where to find instructions?

Phone info:

OS version: 8.0.10211.204

Firmware revision number: 1030.5612.01700.05600

Hardware revision number: HD1U8835M Ver.B

Chip SOC Version: 8230

Thank you.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
If there's a device-specific forum for the phone, check there. However, I can't find one, so you may need to be patient until anybody else with the W1 gets around to answering you.

You can also check with Huawei themselves, of course. Try calling them or emailing them; the most likely source of stock firmware will be Huawei themselves.

I'm not sure what is source of this one and if we can call it international. Some say it is "China UNICON"... Anyway, it allows to select from many languages, (not only CN & EN), it allows to install any app from market (including Skype, FB, etc.).

Though it have some limitations comparing to Chinese ROM that I had originaly. For example it doesn't allow to share Wi-Fi

Hi, I do not know if I should post there, as I cannot speak Polish.

I am in the US and the ROM you have 1030.5610.22500.05420 that is for the USA, only works with our 2G (EDGE) networks here and not 3G (HSPA/HSPA+/UMTS) for some reason, and has some bugs.

Is it possible to get one of the Western European ROMs? Here in the US, only one prepaid carrier, Straight Talk, offers this device, so I am not sure where this USA ROM came from.

But I would like to try either one of these...as I assume they are also unlocked?

I just got mine today. Sems to work fine. Fits under the original cover find. Although I feel it slightly (ever so slightly) buldges outward since when I put the phone back flat on a counter it can rock slightly, so that confirms its buldging outward. The charging thing is fine, although it didn't come with an adapter its just a USB cord that goes to a DC power (round) jack into the charging mat. So the USB part just goes into your existing charging adapter.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dixit:
Mine didn't work when I just tested it, had some Samsung Tectiles sitting around.

Then took off the Qi receiver and it worked. Put the Qi receiver back on but made sure it was pushed as far left as possible while still on the contacts. Put the cover back on, and tested it again and it worked!

So I think the Qi receiver if not positioned properly is affecting the NFC antenna which is on the battery. Its basically covering a good portion of the battery.

Have you tried just to remove the Qi receiver and put the cover back on and test it to make sure there isn't something else? If it works without the Qi receiver then it has go be the Qi receiver is blocking the NFC antenna too much.

I can get it to work with no Qi receiver, but no matter how I try to adjust the NFC tag or Qi receiver I'm getting nothing.

I'll keep playing with it to see if I can get it working. Thanks for the info. I'll post back if results change.

Anyone had any issues with this charger? By that I mean for the past few days since Ive got it I feel there is some flaw/issue with this.

It charged wirelessly just fine upto about 96-97%, no issues, then around that time (normally for me like 3-4am) it starts beeping. What I notice is that the charging mat goes has the green charging light go out, then come back on, causing the phone to beep saying "Charging Wirelessly" and it keeps doing this constantly every 30-60secs. It gets so annoying that I have to take it off the mat as I cant sleep with it constantly beeping. I tried to readjust the Qi receiver to make sure it wasn't the problem, still same thing. Tried using a different usb charger (instead of S4 supplied one, an iphone one since its a 1000mah one and not 2000mah one like the S4) and it still did the same thing.

Ive never had the charging mat show the FULL light.

Maybe I got a defective one. Not sure if the mat is defective or the receiver. Ive got a video of this as well (maybe send this to vivealive).
