Avast reports trojan in ROOT_M919UVUAMDL

I have a MetroPCS/T-Mobile Galaxy S4. I would like to root the phone solely so I can get rid of all the crapware that Samsung stuffed the phone with!! However, when I tried to follow the instructions from

how-root-cwm-recovery-on-galaxy-s4-gt dot html

I got to the note:

Update: T-Mobile Galaxy S4 users! DO NOT download SuperSU. Download ROOT_M919UVUAMDL

However, when I try to access that file, Avast reports malware named "Infekce zablokována" in the file, and deletes it.

Has anyone else accessed this file successfully?? Having been bitten by malware in the past, when I made the mistake of turning off Avast, I am hesitant to do so now!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
What android version do you have?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gorlash:
4.2.2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
I would say that file is most likely safe, but if you would rather try something else, cf-auto root may work with 4.2.2 but I'm really not sure, not too familiar with rooting 4.2.2 on this phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] twotone8:
It was mentioned that this answer was replied to in another post. I went ahead and tracked that other thread down and it mentioned how some of the information posted in this sticky thread is outdated and shouldn't be used. It has me a bit apprehensive, as I'm expected to get my S4 in the mail soon and I'm studying up on what exactly I should do to safely go about rooting and loading customizations. As this thread is one of the first steps xda has given us newbies, are there any red flags or brickable offenses we should be aware of in these guids? From what I read in the tangential thread, the 'rooting from custom recovery' option shouldn't be used if you've previously used the OTA to update your device. In that case cf-auto root is the preferable alternative.

I suppose if I just want to know, myself, if there is a sure-fire way to get the phone back to stock settings, including wiping clean any flash counters or knox counts, after you've gone down the rabbit hold and tampered with the thing. I've read that there's always a way as long as you can boot your device, but like i said, i'm a bit apprehensive seeing as apparently some of the information is outdated.

Thx.

This thread is not monitored by very many people so if you haven't already seen it this is the best help thread for T-Mobile Galaxy S4:

You didn't give enough information here to answer all of your questions but I can say that once you have tripped the Knox flag you can never reset it. To answer your other questions we would need to know exactly what version you have now, what version came with your phone and what tools/steps you used to update if you have done so (e.g., OTA, Kies. Odin, recovery). The experts in that thread can tell you what your options are if you provide that detail. Also, CF-Auto-Root is not the only way, but it's by far the easiest way to root this phone if you are new to the process.

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] vin_che:
Hi everybody

I friend of mine few days ago bought me in USA a pair of UrBeats dy Dr.Dre.

I have a Galaxy Grand i9082 with Android 4.1.2 (last firmware for Spain) and using these earphones I can play/stop/forward/back music. The volume up and down buttons control doesn't work but this is not a problem for me.

I'm very disappointed because the earphones don't work when I try to make a phone-call.

When I try to make a call the earphones disappear. To use them I have to unplug and plug again the pin jack.

Looking for a solution I found a trick.. ""plugging in the jack hold down the primary button (middle button) on the inline set. Hold down button...continue to hold while plugging in = working microphone + whatever buttons the software you are using poll for.""

Unfortunately this trick sometimes doesn't work.:confused:

Can you help me to find a solution ? :rolleyes:

Thank you:good:

I just bought a LGOG from a friend and just noticed that it's impossible for my win8 laptop to recognize the device... I tried using my wife's ol' Win7 powered netbook without luck.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Jared_AK:
So I get the Wait or close error just about every ten seconds with both of those rom updates. I installed/flashed both of them properly. I had the previous rom to 3.4.7 and it worked wonderfully. I thought I would be good and switch to the latest update for it, which was a big mistake....! nothing but errors for just about every app, the boot loader for the ubuntu dual boot freezes after you select Android...! I wanted to post this on the developer page for CROMI-X, but I'm not allowed, which is bs. I have tons of experience in Computers/Netowrking and now with Android(rooted and flashed both my old Galaxy 1 and G3) But now I have to wait and hope the right person see's this and informs me, not the actual person/developer who should know...! So now I'm going to find the previous realease that worked, flash back to it (even though it's no longer supported...) and wait till I get a response on this thread.. SDBAGS! HELP!
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
CromiX is NOT an update to CROMI 3.4.7! The first one is JB 4.2 based. the latter JB 4.1 based.

If you move from Cromi 3.4.7 to Cromi-X you have to:

Flash the new bootloader 10.6.1.14.8 (and make sure you have TWRP 2.5 or flash the package provided by sbdags)

Boot back into Cromi 3.4.7

A clean install is highly recommended when you upgrade to a 4.2 based rom, so boot into TWRP, wipe everything, flash CROMi-X, re-install your apps, do not restore system apps from TiBu.

How your dual boot setup plays into this - I have no idea...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
CROMi-X is not compatible with multi booting Linux. You must stay on the old bootloader as above if you want that functionality.

Fire hazard!

I bought one of these last September. It worked perfectly for exactly two weeks, then one morning I connected it to the charger, and left it for no more than five minutes.

When I looked at it again, there was a white smear on the glass (turned out to be a steam mark inside) and the shell was hot and melting! The thing was dead, of course.

I contacted the Chinese supplier, and tried to get a replacement without sending the dead one back, but no dice: they insisted I return it for repair. So I posted it back to Shenzen. They emailed when it was received, and then again when dispatching it "repaired".

It arrived a few days ago, so more then 4 months had passed. Not my original one, which was warped and melted, but (I think) a refurbished one of the same model.

Naturally, I'm hyper-paranoid about leaving this one charging now. I have no idea if they have a generic battery problem, or mine was a one-off.

I tried to different PAD product tool (1.02 and 1.05 but same)

Can anybody tell me how I can do a chmod on multiple files of the same type? For example, I had this line in my updater-script:

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "chmod", "0660", "/data/data/*/*.xml");

This script will execute just fine, but the files did not have 0660 permissions. Then I tried:

run_program("/system/xbin/busybox", "chmod", "0660", "/data/data/*/*.xml");

I copied recovery.log to /sdcard/(using recovery's report error) and I read the log. I searched for the line(s) related to that problematic line in the updater-script and this is what it says:

run_program: child exited with status 1

about to run program [sbin/busybox] with 4 args

chmod: /data/data/*/*.xml: No such file or directory

Both scripts(before and after I edited it) gave similar errors.

Can anybody tell me what I did wrong/ what is the correct way to do it? Thanks a lot. I hope I don't have to chmod all the files manually.

Hi!

Today I am moving to the United Kingdom, and still have my dutch contract with T-Mobile for the next coming 2 years which I cannot use when I am in the U.K. so in need to unlock my device just look all you geeks want to unlock it!

Now I have been searching for days and absolutely no results or what so ever to unlock the MDA Compact (S100)

The only company who unlocks the phone is www.phonetronics.nl in The Netherlands but I haven't been able to get in touch with the guy who is responsible for the unlocking...

It might is an idea to keep this topic 'sticky' so everybody joins and see's this so nothing can be missed!

How can we unlock it? :D

That is not a option for T-Mobile, I already asked and their answer simply was:

"We need to make money, and this makes sure you stay with us, we won't give away any unlocking code for free even if you would join T-Mobile U.K."

And I there must be a way of unlocking it... hopefully somebody working on it right now...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gulanowski:
Bear with me. If you are an expert on android maybe you can help me out here. First off, I have researched the crap out of this problem and still been unable to fix it, so YES, I did search before making this thread.

I am on a stock, rooted Verizon Galaxy S4. I have been watching my battery consumption carefully via the integrated battery settings menu, battery stats plus and wakelock detector apps. Mainly, there is a program or set of programs that typically is called "Google Services" that according to the integrated battery menu is consuming anywhere between 20-45% of my battery, sometimes more than the screen on time! My battery life is around 48hrs with 10hrs screen time but that is on the massive zerolemon 7500mah battery which I just bought, so I am not sure if that is above, below or just average (i.e. I have no real standard by which to judge).

Like I said I have read probably every thread about this problem with remedies such as; disable location, turn off google now, turn off google maps reporting, uninstall updates for google play/google play services/google framework settings, turn off google sync etc. I have tried them ALL, none seem to work. I have a feeling the issue is perhaps more in depth and above my head.

It gets more complicated. Although the stock android integrated battery menu reports it as using a massive amount of battery, the other two apps I mentioned above do not even report it, or at least not under a name that I regonize (perhaps that categorize it under a different process?). Under them screen time is by far the highest consumer.

So what to make of this? Is it a false report that the stock integrated android battery menu is reporting, and thus something to disregard? I doubt that because there are many other threads out there of people with the same problem and questions I have. But It's also not like my battery drains within hours. For instance, today I have been off the charge for 12.5hrs, with 3hrs and 40min of screen time and have 63% remaining on the 7500mah zerolemon extended battery.

If you can help, please do. If this is indeed a major drain I would really like to fix it.

EDIT: Maybe I should have posted this in the general S4 forum?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iwearthebelt:
Make sure you're running the most recent version of the Play Store, version 4.1.10. There was an issue with the previous version that was causing battery drain. Just do a search for the most recent play store .apk file and install it with the package installer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gulanowski:
Yes! I saw this recommendation a million times. I was runing 4.1.6, which without much thought I assumed was newer than 4.1.10 (I interpreted the .10 to be a one instead of ten). But after your post it "clicked" for me, so I manually updated the play store and will see after the next charge whether it worked. Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gulanowski:
So it looks like this did NOT work for me. Google services is still draining my battery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iwearthebelt:
If it were me, I would next try flashing the no-wipe stock image from open1your1eyes0. I'm pretty sure that will fix your issue while leaving your apps & settings intact. It'll save you a lot of time and aggrevation as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DA717:
I've been having a similar problem as well where every day google services seem to take up about 40% of my battery... I just updated to 4.1.10 play store and unchecked the Wifi & Mobile Network location in location setting yesterday evening. let see if this helps... today 3 hrs with no Google Services in my battery reading yet...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gulanowski:
Well, I may have spoken too soon with my above post. As soon as I unplugged my phone earlier today I saw google services eating up the majority of my battery. But of course that only accounted for 1 or 2 minutes as I had just unplugged it. As the day progressed the amount used by google services did go up but not by as much as it previously had. So perhaps the update of google play store to 4.1.10 did work.

Currently, after being off the charger for 8hrs with about 1hr of screentime google services has used up 9% of the battery, which although not where I'd hoped is still much better than before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DA717:
well thats progress. As for myself, 1hr 27m screentime and 1 hr 40m voice call and off the charger for 10hrs 30mins. currently the battery is at 65% with no Google Services usage in sight. This is with Wifi, bt, and gps all enabled.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eric214:
Go to data usage and tap on EACH program you do not need to have running background data and disable the background data. I only leave things unchecked like google play and services, email, just only a couple of things needed to get your messages. I freeze maps untill i need them and only have google location service on and gps and VZW off obviously. I only have email sync once an hour and only work email as i manually check for personal email.

Do that and your google services will behave. Android System never goes above 2% and Android OS is never above 5% unless im using wifi and such then it might creep up to about 9% after a few hours. Nothing else is ever above 9% unless its screen or device idle or cell standby.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gulanowski:
Well, according to the stock battery report google services is still eating up my battery at 34% usage at 2h 19m. I unplugged 13h ago and used 2h 42m of screen time and am down to 28%.

BatteryStatsPlus reports google services as "Google Account Management", and although it says it has used the same time (2h 19m), it reports it as having used 6.42%. So I wonder if this is an issue of the stock battery report being too high, or whether google services really does consume 34%?

I'd really prefer to not start flashing things or wiping the phone. I hate messing with it and although I rooted it that is as far as I'd like to go. But that google play store 4.1.10 update didn't work.
