[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matthew_Shute:
I'm looking for some advice about rooting my android device. I'd like su permission, so I can remove protected bloatware, use apps such as Root Explorer, etc.

The device is listed on Amazon as an Allwinner A13 (correct, I think) with Android 4.0. However, on my "tablet information" screen, the Android version is given as 4.1.1.

Here's all the info from the "about tablet" tab on the settings screen:

Model number: Q88.

Android version: 4.1.1

Baseband version: v0.4rc3

Kernel version: 3.0.8+ android9@Linux #284

Build number: nuclear_evb-eng 4.1.1 JRO03C 20130531 test-keys

The device arrived with no clear documentation, and it's a bit hit-and-miss what you end up with, with these - my friend ordered the same item and ended up with a device with different apps installed, and his device was already rooted when he took it out of the box!

Is there a way to root without using a computer? (I don't have ready access to a PC right now.) I've tried Poot and a couple of other apps, but no luck so far.

Thanks in advance for any help; I'll be eternally grateful.

:)

I need help too... My version is 4.2.2... Model Q88.. Firmware/v0.4rc3.. Kernel 3.0.8+ android9@Linux2 #40. Build number- nuclear_xw711-eng 4.2.2 JDQ39 20130626 test-keys..... PLEASE!!!! Help us... :) We gladly appreciated....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matthew_Shute:
Ah, someone in the same boat. Have you found any more info on rooting these, since your post? They obviously can be rooted - as I said, I know someone with the same model, Q88, that already had full root access, straight out of the box.

Let me know if you find anything out; I'm still looking.

With the poot/ministro method, I'm just getting an error message about a "daemon has materialised". It hasn't harmed my device, but neither am I any closer to su permission.

[rant]We really shouldn't have to jump through any hoops to get control over our own devices. Imagine if you bought a PC, and you didn't have admin access to Windows. If you ask why, you're told: "well, you might delete your system files, and we can't trust you not to!"[/rant]

My tablet is a allwinner a13 too. And this process worked flawlessly. But you have to use a computer.

Hey everyone,

I moved some messages to my secure box, but now they are missing. If I search I can find them but can only see a preview of the message. I cant open them or move them around.

Are these messages stored somewhere on the phone, or does anyone know how to get them out?

Thanks in advanced.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gaberamos615:
Greetings,

I dropped my Galaxy SIII pretty hard and the screen went purple for a bit, then completely black. The phone appears to be working (vibrating on startup, back and menu buttons light up) I hear that the screen and digitizer are busted. Luckly, I insured the phone so I can get another.

Phone is completely stock ROM

Phone is NOT rooted

Debugging Mode is NOT on

USB mode only can be activated by swipe down

I tried running AndroidScreenCast, but my phone's serial does not appear when running adb devices.

Is there any other way?

Bonus points - Can I hook up an HDMI cable from mini-usb and view the screen? Can I use a usb hub and have a kb, mouse AND hdmi cable?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gaberamos615:
Bump

Will HDMI cable work? I don't want to purchase one and have it not work!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dillonc:
You can try using push adb to launch file explorer on windows, pull off all oh your data and then replace your phone. Happened to me a few months ago, but I chose to replace the screen myself.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gaberamos615:
Thanks for the reply. How much was the screen? Was it hard to replace?

I have warranty, but it is a $200 deductible.

some more infos about the device..? have you ever unlocked/flashed etc something?

hi

it is HTC One model PN07100 801n unlocked boot only for root....

devices works well but only stops in this update i had 1st update around 1.45MB works very well after 1st update..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herwegan:
ok, so relock the bootloader for the OTA update and unlock it again after OTA.. it should work then :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashraf M:
already did

already did that here is pic of my system,,,and video of what happen to me,,sorry i can't upload video from outside xda...thank you again
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herwegan:
are you still rooted? i thought that root disables OTA, so you'd have to temporary unroot first too.. also do you use stock recovery? (just to be sure) ;)

for OTA you need to be:

- On stock rom

- On stock recovery

- On original CID (or supercid)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashraf M:
sorry but but how to do that ...it is stock rom....what is the steps to do it? :confused:

thanks :good:

have you tried to unroot and update again?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashraf M:
unrooted

Yes i tired that and here is prove
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herwegan:
so you're on stock rom, unrooted, supercid, relocked bootloader and on stock recovery as i could see.. and the first update worked fine.

dude this is strange.. :confused:

Sorry Dude But What To Do Now anything you want me to check for it??? :crying: :crying: :crying:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herwegan:
no problem mate, i'd really like to help you :)

but right now i have no more idea, because i think everything is prepared the way it should be but still there's this error... the last thing you could try is to put the CID back to the original one (the one you had before supercid) and try again..

but it's confusing me because the first update worked and the second now is stuck...

there is NO 4.2.2 RUU you have to flash a 4.1.2 RUU and then update to 4.2.2

i recommend to flash (ARHD 12.2) its the latest update and has tons of features,
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zopostyle:
Solutions:

Change everything to original CID, MID, boot and recovery..... no need to relock or anything else...you're S-OFF.

Do a wipe cache and davlink, reboot, and try to update

If it doesn't work..

Flash your RUU again (the one that match to your software and carrier), and ota update everything again... don't waste time trying anything else.. I would choose this one, so you garantee that nothing interfere and you have a stock phone.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] acejavelin:
So here is the deal... I have been a Verizon customer for years, and I am just sick and tired of them jerking me around and upping their rates, taking away unlimited data, taking away early upgrades, etc. So I am thinking of jumping ship and going to Net10. I have also been a big HTC fan for a long time, currently using the HTC Rezound which seems to be roughly a slightly improved CDMA/LTE version of the Vivid. I can get a new, sealed in the box, unlocked HTC Vivid for about $200 on eBay.

So where I am going with this, knowing HTC has had quality models and, well, lets just say questionable models, how is the Vivid? Is it solid and relatively problem free? easy to unlock, S-OFF, root, ROM, return to stock, etc. Has anyone used this on Net10/StraightTalk?

So basically I am just looking for people's opinion of the phone in general, from a heavy phone users perspective... My other alternative's at this time are the Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket which I can get new for about $210, or just suck it up and grab a Nexus 4 from Google, although the $350+tax and shipping for the 16GB model would hurt, a lot, right now.

Thoughts?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TheROMGuy:
Go with the GS2 SkyRocket
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] acejavelin:
Yeah, after a bunch of research and poking around the forums, that's what I did... Should have it by the end of the week.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TheROMGuy:
Its not that its a bad phone because its not its actually really good but its just not the easiest to work with.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] eddyecho:
I would have gone with the nexus 4 as I am sick of htc's BS but to each his own.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] acejavelin:
Yeah, I am very familiar with the uniqueness of HTC products... I've owned more than one (Inc2, Aria, Rezound) and once you figure it out they are all really similar. I chose the SGS2 Skyrocket not because the Vivid was bad, but for me the SGS2 was just a better choice this time, same money, slight faster, better battery life, lighter, thinner, and more developer support. I don't think I would have been unhappy with the Vivid, just think I will be happier with the Sammy.

Thanks for responding.

I ended up erasing what looked like an empty folder to me in /storage. Now everything is gone sdcard related.

Did I really wipe my data or will flashing back to stock do uncover some hidden folder most likely work? God I hope so..

From time to time my N4 alerts me with a sound, but when I check the navigation bar, I don't see anything in the list.

Try using the Settings shortcut widget, select notifications and now you have a notification area.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] miller150:
Hey guys,

Last night I plugged in my LGOG right before I went to sleep. About seven hours later I woke up, woke it up to check the time, then fell back to sleep. When I woke up again a few hours later, my phone was completely dead. No lights go on when charging, nor does it go into the charging mode that happens when the phone is off but charging. The power button does nothing at all. Connecting it to a computer does nothing. I have tried two different wall chargers and a USB plug, and have tried different outlets. The phone is rooted and unlocked. I haven't put any new apps or anything on the phone recently, however I have had a slight overheating issue lately. I don't think that that's what caused the issue though, as when I woke up for the first time and woke it up, the phone was not noticeably hot, and seemed to work fine. Any ideas or suggestions?

Edit: As suddenly as it stopped working, it has started working again, about two hours later. The notification sound buzzed, my phone turned on, and usual on start things happened. However I'm still extremely worried about it. Now that it's on, I assume there's more I can do to figure out the issue- suggestions?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] NickS_:
These phones are terribly buggy when charging/when they die, IMO. Worst Android device I've ever had in that respect.

Probably just a fluke, tbh.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] miller150:
Unfortunately it happened again- sent a message, put my phone away, when I tried to turn it on again nothing happened and it stopped working for five minutes.

Apologies for not mentioning this before, but I am using carbonrom, not stock. I've used it for several months with no issues, and have used the latest build for a week or two now without this issue.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] JasonBourne.Qc:
Reboot into recovery and wipe cache+dalvik

Maybe the rom needs a little cleaning

Sent from my CM10.2 OGE973
[AT&T LG Optimus G] miller150:
Tried wiping cache and dalvik, but didn't seem to solve the issue. Then my phone started having an issue it's had once before- it turns on for a few seconds, then the screen goes grey for about a minute, then returns to being on. After returning to being on, it acts like it's just started up- ie, there's superuser grant notifications, cpu set notifications, and all sorts of other stuff I usually see on boot. It essentially rendered my phone unusable, so I restored an earlier backup. This seems to have resolved it for now, I may have to wait before updating carbon again. :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] OMGMatrix:
Either you have a bad phone (possible, LG seems to have some QC issues based on some of the crazy reports Ive heard fm other people on this forum [Mine's fine]), or it's all the startup **** that you have going.

Do you usually let it discharge to below 5%?

that's a stupid idea with any device, and seems to be especially damaging to our LGOG.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mopo01:
Have mine 2months been careful not to let the battery shut down on its own but thirds past Monday my car charger weren't bad and the phone shut down. Would not except a charge after that. Went to att and they sent me to a service center. They could not charge it either. They replaced it, now making sure my external battery backup its always charged. Do not want to do that again.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] miller150:
That sounds like that could actually be the issue. On the previous iteration of carbon I almost never allowed it to go below about 10%. However the new update seemed to be harsher on battery life and it slipped into the 1% range several times...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ryancnap:
same thing happened to me running root box with no tweaks or anything. I woke up and the phone was off, been that way for two days now. it wasn't on the charger so its definitely possible that it died. I actually found this thread because I could've sworn there was a report of someone who had to do a battery pull. I'm thinking that's my only option now.
[HTC First] amphi66:
After rooting I deleted all of the AT&T and Facebook software. I note that the AT&T Software Update check button remains under Phone Settings, but more disturbingly was a pop-up this morning stating that AT&T Update was checking for updates! Fortunately I happen to be in a wifi-only area right now -- no cell coverage so the "network is not available".

So far Google has NOT been my friend. Is anyone aware of a switch to fully disable or script to remove this? Thanks! --Larry
[HTC First] nuclear_eclipse:
Assuming you've flashed a custom recovery image, then when it asks to install the update, just "let it". It will reboot the phone into the recovery, and you can immediately cancel. The phone will never prompt you to update after that even though you're still on the old version.
[HTC First] amphi66:
But if doesn't find an update & reboot to recovery, will it simply keep searching (& using battery)?

I rebooted and the popup hasn't returned, but I still would like to disable/remove the whole thing.
[HTC First] jmz:
Nuke the 2 zips in /system/etc/security. That will kill OTAs altogether
[HTC First] amphi66:

[HTC First] amphi66:
Because I can't leave well enough alone (& with "zips" deleted & other AT&T apps deleted) since I couldn't remove it, I pressed the "AT&T Software Update" button in Settings. Surprisingly, after a brief search the phone began to download an update! I forced an immediate reboot to recocery and did a backup restore to insure it was stopped.

Question: As I am running build 1.08.502.1 CL180011, Baseband version 1.15.40.00.13_2_10.64.40.33AL what is this update trying to do and should I let it try to install. I certainly do not want to impact my s-off, root, or deodexed ROM.
