No matter which software you're currently running you should have no problems.

Just make sure:

You should restart your PC after installing Drivers.

Remove Phone battery, Then access Software update Mode.

All the required files are in that post, just download everything, place superuser.zip in sd card, follow the instructions.

After flashing, the phone will automatically reboot into the Recovery menu.

in the recovery menu, select wipe Data/factory reset, then confirm.

after that, select Wipe Cache, and confirm.

Go to Advanced>Wipe Dalvik Cache.

Go back, Select Install Zip from SD Card>Choose zip from SD Card and Then Choose The Superuser.zip from the SD Card, THIS will root your phone.

Select Reboot System Now.

Let phone reboot, go to Dialer dial 3845#*970# and do factory reset.

Done!

This is as much detail as possible, Cant go anymore :P

Or go to my noob how to and find everything there... I sometimes wonder, what I made it for...
[LG Optimus Black] nikos550:
I click the grey button and it counts 5 seconds, then another grey button comes up, I click and then it takes me to a page where it is 404 Not Found.

Anyhow, do you know of any progs I can use to uninstall LG'S preinstalled apps, a debloater basically but for GingerBread.

Thanks in advance dude.
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
Yeah, Read N00by's Noob how to once: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1487105 its really detailed.

As for the Firmware, you can use this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1487105 firmware to root Posted by N00by.

To remove LG Bloatware, just use any uninstaller app from the Play store, But you WILL need root. so root your phone first, then Use Titanium Backup (recommended).
[LG Optimus Black] nikos550:
done the root

Hi,

Basically ive done the root, been a big help cheers. stopped and deleted a few things that I shouldn't have and needed to flash the phone twice lol. Im not touching any prog now unless i know 100% what it is.

1. if you know of any source i can refer to so that i can know what i can/can not delete it would help.

2. After the root, should i delete the superuser.zip from the memory card???

3. If you know of a good root prog i can download so i can uninstall unneeded progs let me know (cos basically i downloaded root app uninstall from play store and that was the reason i flashed the phone 2nd time, screen went black, cant trust it)

Let us know mate so i know what Im doing.

Thanks in advance.:good:
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
Search the apps and themes section, there was a thread for the List of safely removable apps. Also, all uninstalling apps will be the same, they will show you all apps, you have to choose the ones to uninstall.

You can delete the superuser.zip if you've flashed it.
[LG Optimus Black] nikos550:
ok

Ok dude.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] J.Guido85:
I was hoping you guys could direct me. I'm looking for a Rom that is the fastest, cleanest room with the closest experience to a nexus device. What would you recommend?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miketoasty:
That would be CyanogenMod. That is by far the closest you will ever get to a Nexus device, but you will be giving up a bit of battery life, many of the SPen functions, and MultiWindow.

What you will be getting in return, is the beautiful stock look, being on the latest android version, and having a completely "Debloated" ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] J.Guido85:
Ok, I've heard a lot about cyan, but never gave it a shot. Where do I get it from and is it easy to install. Do I do it through tw recovery like any other Rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:

That's the link to the official nightlies for CM 10.1, installation instructions are in the OP of course. Yes you do use TWRP recovery and install it just like any touchwiz rom. Personally AOSP roms always end up getting buggy on my device, YMMV.

If I were you I would look into TW roms that can give you an AOSP look. I'll edit in some links.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2274197 this is the novella Alliance rom that has an aosp theme option.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2207854 this is the miui rom and I believe with the miui theme engine you can an aosp look.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2253455 this is an aosp theme you can you with tweaked or clean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] itsDollar:
Normally I would say CyanogenMod or a Rom close to it. For this phone the S-pen is affected by the Rom you choose. A few of the Touchwiz Roms are pretty stable and the AOSP Roms removes most of the S-pen functionality. You should try a couple since everyone's experience is different. I'm running Beans Rom and it's pretty fast without changing any voltages.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] J.Guido85:
I've used clean rom a few times and have always been happy. I usually use nova as well. I'm just liking for something that's fast, stable and doesn't have overwhelming options. Does any roms out there have the on screen keys like the nexus devices do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
Only AOSP roms do, and moonrom or minitab when in phablet/tablet modes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wtoj34:
For a good aosp rom, I would recommend a few of these.

1. ParanoidAndroid (my favorite)

2. AOKP

3. Cyanogen Mod (obvious good one)

4. LiquidSmooth

You will lose some nice tw features but there are some apps on the playstore that can give you similar spen features on aosp (don't want to post links as I don't own the rights). I myself would go for a tw ROM and just put nova launcher on there, but I love a great stock phone as much as the next guy. Hope I can help in some way but most Roms are just all opinion based. I would try around and post back your favorite.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] chameleon:
if you are looking for a very stable ROM, IMHO...i think SIN's V.2 MERGED ROM is the most stable and bluetooth support is good.

the problem is...HE made it FOR AUSTRALIAN USERS only...no problem..just download his setup files.

then backup your operator config files example smartall???.cab and globeall??/.cab, you can find it if you view your AUTOCONFIG.TXT and look under smart or globe.

then FLASH your XDA using SIN's V.2, after flashing proceed normally...dont load an operator setting when asked to..instead open your extrom and replace the files there with SMART and GLOBES cab files also your edited AUTOCONFIG.txt...then run AUTOCONFIG...tada! u have SIN's MERGED v.2 on your XDA 2 for smart or globe.

Thanks,

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] chameleon:
RAMSIS,

YES, BUY the XDA IIi or the XDA II MINI..both have superior cameras and are already preloaded with WM 2003 SE, howver, if you can get a cheap deal on an XDA II, then the only hardware you need is a computer to flash your device...all softwares are available here for download.

XDA2JOJO,

I think files cannot be uploaded if its in nbf or exe format...please ZIP your files using WINRAR or WINZIP then upload as an ATTACHMENT in your POST. Hope it helps.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] planetf1:
My S4 I9505 was on the latest official BTU firmware. I decided to flash the latest MF5 (NEE) firmware with Odin 3.07. No rooting or change to recovery.

I was slightly surprised to see About->Status showing "Device Status Custom" .

Is this normal now with the S4? Presumably it's because I flashed an NEE rom manually - so not a BTU rom?

Not that bothered just a little surprised/intrigued

I guess I could root and try triangle away? Maybe the next BTU update will fix it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Its normal that it triggers Custom nothing new

Flashing Stock rom and reset after that will make it Official and ya u can root and use TA but since u have flashed official firmware mostly binary will be Zero only

As per what u know any Samsung Signed firmware wont increase Binary counter
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] coffeboy23:
So I have flashed a couple of different ROMs some debloated TW some full featured TW and some without TW and the internal memory always stays at 9.72 available even without all the bloat. My question is is there a way to change that can I format or re partition the internal storage without screwing everything up royally???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] crawler9:
Short answer: No. Too risky.

A little more information, mostly speculation. Repartitioning your device's internal memory could very easily leave you with a brick. While it may be possible, the risks are greater than any benefit.

This may be totally off-base, but I'd guess that you'd probably need a custom bootloader redesigned with the proper starting and ending addresses for the new partitions, especially if you wanted to resize any partitions that affect the way the phone starts up (boot and system, I'd imagine).

edit: Does anyone think it may be possible to repurpose some of the unused space on the system partition of some ROMs as extended media storage through the use of symlinks? Not sure I'm saying exactly what I mean, and I might be completely misunderstanding how symlinks work, but here's my thought:

e.g. Create a folder in /system/extended_media_storage. Create a symlink on data/media/ pointing to /system/extended_media_storage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] coffeboy23:
I figured that would be the case, ill just stick to using folder mount to use up my SD card when needed.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hellstyrant:
An interesting idea, but a quick attempt didn't work. Easier to just get a big MicroSD and symlink your media folders to that.

View attachment 2065431
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] crawler9:
Thanks for trying it out and letting me know. I doubted it would actually work, but figured I might throw the idea out there just in case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] inspectergadget:
linux experience

my experience with Linux suggests that a simple repartition resize would suffice, if possible.

In Linux there are nice programs like GParted that can change, create, modify partitions Live, It is risky but I've never lost data.

Those were windows machines running Linux distros though. Android is a form of Linux but I'm not sure what you can do partition wise.

Not quite that far in my quest of knowledge and understanding.

The thing is, your partitions are set and don't change, even when you flash, so basically that space is pre-allocated by the factory.

even when you flash, you aren't flashing the partition structure, just the data inside it (those memory addresses), IF after you flashed with the No Bloatware Flash theoretically you should be able to resize that particular partition and also resize the device storage partition in sequence to a bigger size. All that should be possible without affecting the important system partitions etc. Even if you did **** it up, the system and recovery partitions are hidden and you should be able to do a full rewrite recovery with some software and a usb cord, theoretically. You would need to be accurate, not just precise when you resize the partitions. As a matter of fact if you did do it, you should resize according to actual drive blocks and not bytes.

Just my 2 cents, Ayyyyy
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Jason Broadhurst:
Hi Guys (long time listener first time caller etc etc)

I finally got the courage to install a custom rom on to my HTC One XL (Telstra). After unlocking it installing the custom bootloader (2.5.0.0 TW) I have tried to install some roms and get no where with a few of them and boot loops if they actually install.

The two I can get to install but boot loop are ViperXL and cyanogenmod 10.0.

I am thinking I am doing something really simple wrong, but have tried a lot of things but no luck.

Details below; If there is anything else which might shed some light please let me know.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Jason Broadhurst:
oh, I did install all of Telstra's updates prior to starting. The last one brought android up to 4.1.2 I think.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cr1960:
Welcome mate.

Couple of things...

The HBoot version you have won't allow you to update the boot.img of the rom your flashing as part of rom installation. You have 2 options - first is to s-off which pretty much lets you do whatever you like. Check in the original development thread for how to s-off if you're interested.

The second option is to flash (install) the boot.img in bootloader mode.

You can do that either before or after you flash the rom. Before I was s-off I did it both before and after.....

There's a few ways to do it including using adb or some apps will do it automatically for you. Take a look here for one example: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1870455

And the second thing - good idea to post questions in the Q&A thread. More people look through there so you'll get your answer faster.

My device is an HTC One V Primo U

I've unlocked the bootloader and flashed:

Recovery: CWM

ROM: shpongle_primou-20130521

Kernel:boot-HELLBOY-20130514

I'm not getting a GPS lock. With wifi and mobile network location enabled I get an approximate location but GPS never locks. With wifi and mobile network location disabled I get no location at all. GPS Test app shows no satellites in range. I tried running fix permissions with no change. I also tried restoring back to the stock ROM but its hanging on the boot animation. Any tips for troubleshooting this would be great!
[HTC One V] russellvone:
When returning back to stock you must flash the stock kernel again
[HTC One V] bandit97:
Is your gps.conf file setup for your area?

Are you running CrossBreeder by chance? I had the same kind of issues with it.

And you don't need stock kernel for stock rom. You can use TK kernel. Hellboy is for 4.1 and up.

Did you do a full wipe before restoring your stock?
[HTC One V] skinneem:
I'm not familiar with setting up gps.conf. How does it need to be set up? I'm not sure if this is the issue because the GPS Test app I'm using isn't showing a value from the magnetometer either.

I'm not running CroosBreeder.

I wiped the dalvik and and data before restoring a nandroid backup of the stock ROM. Would that not restore the kernel too?
[HTC One V] bandit97:
Those might not be the issues. Your gps.conf file is in your etc folder. I live in Canada so mine has

NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=ca.pool.ntp.org

I've attached a zip with GPS conf files for all areas, pulled from suprimo. Hope thats ok.

The one V dosen't have a magnetometer as far as I know thats a compass.

Have you tried an RUU?
[HTC One V] nasvi:
Thanks Bandit97,

I edited my gps.conf and my GPS locks within seconds.

Can't believe I didn't think of that.

Thank you

Hello!. I am from Asia and changed the config file. still there is no fix. sometimes i get one satellite lock in North America setting but never on Asis settings.

Run ControlBear from terminal - sudo ./ControlBear

it said adb.tmp not found

okzx man i will try..

But is there any other process to do that..

[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Once you learn more about it you will appreciate Ubuntu and Linux a whole lot more. Linux is no joke it is a great kernel if you didn't know already Android is based off Linux and you run it every day.

While installing ubuntu onto your pc just to s off seems inconvenient it is actually safer on Ubuntu since unlimited.io found a vulnerability and discontinued the Windows S off method and moved it to ubuntu.

If you get a windows version you won't get support from unlimited.io and not so much from xda since we respect their wish of not supporting the windows method.

If you know something about electronic, you can try short burst (1 or 2 seconds) of power with 3 AA battery (or 4.5V battety) and connect them to +/- of phone battery.

Or (no matter how wierd it is), keep plug in and plug out from charger multiple times. At some point it should reach voltage level to start charging...
