[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ding Fei:
Galaxy Tab 3 from Chna

Hello tjohnman,

I also buyed last week a galaxy tab 3 10.1 here in china and have the same problem.

I have already rooted the tab and also found some how to´s for installing the google framework

and the app store for example

worlwideweb.androidpit.de/de/android/forum/thread/413743/Android-Market-Auf-X2-G

, but it works only more or less. Some of the google apps are running now but the most important

the google play store still didn´t run.

Maybe I only take the wrong software or I don´t know.

Can you tell me what exactly you have done to install the play store???

My Tab is:

GT-p5200

Android Vers. 4.2.2

Kernel 3.4.34-1216049

Has somebody a good idea or can tell me which software I have to use.

Thx for your hepl.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ding Fei:
Solved the problem

Solved the problem by myself! But still is for me not clear how I can now which gapps-jb-xxx is the right one for my system.

Only with testing it was possible to find the solution.

Has anybody a good idea?

Hello

I'm new here so don't expect me to know much about this...

So, I was installing a ROM and since my Bootloader isn't unlocked, I don't have many options to go, so I tried http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2309415.

I did everything well but... When I was installing through CWM (I wiped everything before since I didnt want to keep anything) my phone fell to the ground and the battery went off.

As you probably imagine, the phone won't pass through "SONY" logo...

What can I do to install ROM again?

And again, I'm a noob, installing this ROM and a pain in the ass for me since I never had any experience doing this, so don't use many terminologies, for I might not understand them.

Thank you
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] zzztidurvirus:
Okay. Can you access cwm recovery again, and reinstall that rom? If not, you should reflash stock .ftf via flashtool. The easier way is to use pc companion - repair. I hope you understand these simple steps.

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] drakegore:
I can't acess CWM, that's the problem.

The Companion won't even detect the phone.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] zzztidurvirus:
Then you have to go flashtool way. Get any .ftf that you want and flash it. Remember, install the drivers, found in flashtool folder.

If you want, you can still use pc companion - repair. Pull the battery out, and on the pc, click repair. Do not connect the phone until it ask you to. You should be able to pick the phone (J) before it ask to connect.

Do you think this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2180706 works if bootloader is locked?

Dowloading now, trying after. I'll leave feedback here. Thanks in advance :)
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] zzztidurvirus:
Yeah, it should work without problems. After you flash this, you can go to AVD ROM.

Thanks a lot for the tip. I thought it was bricked or something :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kelter:
Hi all,

I'm curious to see what the popular opinion is one the following topics:

1) Is it acceptable/ok to dirty flash from a ROM to itself to gain additional features? Ex: I'm currently running Hyperdrive RLS15 and I'd like to reinstall with all of my prior options, but adding an AOSP/other app. Is this ok?

2) What is the best practice in flashing a new kernel? I'm working to maximize my battery life (thus far, Hyperdrive is working decently), and I need to flash a custom kernel. Should I be doing a "so fresh and so clean" 3X wipe (system/data/dalvik/cache) and somehow include the kernel into the Aroma installer (and as a complete newb, how do I go about doing this?)? Can I flash the kernel through TWRP over top of my current install? If I'm running a complete re-install, is there any reliable method to keep all of the Hyperdrive tweaks that I've implemented?

Thanks in advance folks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
1. Yes, but you have to select everything else the exact same to keep from losing features.

2. Wiping system will erase a current rom and isn't good for installing kernels. You really don't have to wipe anything, but I like to wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, then flash the kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kelter:
Thanks for the response! Now I guess my questions are more toward which kernel to use. Anyone have experiences that they'd be willing to share with custom kernels?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobAbooE:
Just try them. Pick aosp or tw. That's the only way to know what's "good" for you.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] sparker366:
I just bought the ATT Note 8.0 LTE SGH i467 and want to root it so I can remove the crap att put on it. Now looking in the root information I see it wants to know whether its an n5100 n5110. I have the ATT Note 8.0 lte which in about tells me its the SGH i467. How do I find the N number for the device? If I read correctly from the root toolkit here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2251033.

Can someone point me to the correct root procedure for this device. I have looked through these forums and am coming up blank.

TIA
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] drezman:
I don't think anyone has found a way to root the i467 yet. The N5120 is the international note 8 with lte, but I'm not sure if selecting the 5120 in the toolkit will work for your i467.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jmcourir:
Hi!

I'll watch this thread because I plan to buy one i467m from Bell and want to make sure that we will be able to root it!

Seems that it is slow to see some developements from developpers... :eek: Is it because it still too much a new product?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
One day I went to use my tablet after a long time not using it. It was on the stock OS. And it stops at the Asus screen with the spinning circle I know sometimes this might take awhile so I let it sit for 24 hours and it still is there. I tried cold boot and reset to default and also the recovery image. With the recovery image I get a dead droid with a red ! above him. When I plug it into my computer I hear my computer detect it but I can't access it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
Guessing the OS is corrupted. Bring it back to stock again using easyflasher. You will lose all data by doing this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhatNoob:
You need to be in apx mode to use easyflasher. Press power and volume up for a few seconds and connect to PC. Your tablet should be recognized however the screen will stay black. Then you can use easyflasher. Good luck! Also, try to never allow the battery to go completely flat. If you will not be using it for a while power off.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
it is not letting me go into apx mode. When I try turning it off it restarts and goes to the boot screen and freezes there. Is the recovery image on the SD card? I can get to the recovery so I might just put the stock zip on it and try it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
I just tried updating it and I keep getting the same dead droid and it keeps rebooting when I try to power it off so I cant enter apx
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
Try holding POWER and VOL UP and it should enter APX even if it isn't off first.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
No matter what I try and how many times I try when I push the power button it just restarts. if I hold the Power and Volume up it restarts and sticks at the Asus screen. In the Device Manager for a description for the tablet it says "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
I had that error and it was a bad USB cable. My cable still worked with the stock charger, just not for USB (MTP/APX/ADB)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
I do have 2 cables and last time I used then both did work so I know that is not a part of my problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
You won't see anything in APX mode and may think the device is powered off. So connect it to your computer first, then try to go in APX. You should hear the computer detect the device.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
I know how to get into apx mode. I have used it several times before but it will not let me. No matter what I try it keeps rebooting.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Does it still reboot when you try entering APX mode if the USB cable is disconnected from the tablet ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
sea iedcalp

yes it reboots if it is hooked to the computer or all by itself. If I try to enter apx by itself or hooked to the computer it still reboots.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
If I can't get into apx does that mean that I have a brick?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Possibly, or your power / volume buttons aren't working properly / getting stuck pressed in

Might be worth taking it apart and disconnecting the battery for a while / checking buttons are working without the plastic bezel over the top of them

Check no cables have come loose causing weird behaviour
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
I opened it up cleaned the buttons unplugged the battery and looked for loose cables. Plugged the battery back in and rechecked for loose cables. I tried going into APX and that is a no go. I have not reassembled the unit back together yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
So what should I do next?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WuW:
I got it fixed!

I unplugged the battery plugged it back in, did a cold boot then enter apx mode
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Great!

Must have been some weird bug in memory that was being kept alive by the battery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaysonDroid:
Hello I have a problem with purchasing apps. I'm running a custom ROM which shouldn't be the issue here since it worked before. When I try to purchase an app in the Play Store it gives me the message

[I][COLOR="Red"]Your purchase on your Verizon US billing account was declined. Please select a different payment method[/COLOR][/I]

I have tried clearing cache and data of the Play Store under Application manager and nothing changed. It works after a factory reset and after 1-2 days it displays this message again. Any ideas? I have not gone over the spending limit either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Anthony825:

Hello,

i'm trying to find out the operator code of the belgian operator Proximus. Anyone here that can give me the code? I've already tried getdevicedata.exe, but the only thing i can see is my rom version (i've included the file). Also backing up the rom and using a hex editor gave some unreadable chars.

Thanks in advance

apparently I was using GetDeviceData.exe instead of HimaGetDeviceData.exe. Using the latter all went fine.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edge-Case:
Well the script should be working, it is 'ettin.sh' now. To get VNC to work on separate device just change 'eth0' to 'wlan0' or whatever other interface you know how to configure, like usb maybe, in the 'init.sh' script that resides in ~/ on the images you can download from http://linuxonandroid.org/downloads/. Cool. If anyone can help with the usb configuring that would be cool.

Also on the different roms your storage might be different so just change that to what suites your environment,

BAD NEWS, After my first launch and exiting the VNC on my laptop (Ubuntu) My phones home button and a few other functions stopped working, a reboot remounts the root and system partitions and it goes back to normal essentially, I haven't noticed any adverse affects after the reboot.

Good luck.

EDIT: If you can't help me, you probably shouldn't attempt any of this.

I want to connect to backtrack over usb from Ubuntu on my laptop instead of from my phone. Is there a good way of doing this?

The thing is, I didn't chroot, I mounted the image, copied the contents of '/etc/*' and '/sbin/*' to the '*/etc' '*/sbin' dirs of the mounted image. and then mounted it's (the image's) contents to Androids rootfs '/' then I set up a little script to set up the environment and execute '/bin/bash -i init.sh' and again reset PATH to include /system/*.

Then in the init.sh script I want to set up a way to 'vnc' through' usb to backt4acks desktop. How would I do this?

EDIT: I started this script blelow, its not complete, feel free to use it however you like.

If anyone is good with bash I need help with loops in Bash or shell, ksh, or ash. So if you change it at all share those changes here. I haven't tested any of the loops, I wrote this here and need to do some reading on shell scripting, peace out.

Just NOTE that I would not execute this script yet, it is NOT YET COMPLETE.

I will be making minor changes as I learn and test things out, Also this was inspired by the autobootscrip (sp?) that the Linux on Android Installer app uses.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edge-Case:
mintberrycrunch revision

I need a little help with the mounting part, "is there anybody out there?"

EDIT: Maybe escape '\' characters...

Maybe this will work? 'if [ ! -d "/$d" -a "$d" \!= "dev" -o "$d \!= "mnt" ]; then ' I want it to test whether the directory does not already exists in / and if it is not named dev or named mnt then mount it. Do you think this is a decent way to do it? Any suggestions?

Sorry, I still haven't tested this script yet, so if you brave and see any changes that will make it work I am not resposible. But it is getting close to when I will run it for the first time. The difference between this and the one I wrote for Kali is this should be a one stop shop so to speak for getting into a non chroot enviroment where you can access Bt's tools from Android directly. Apperently about a year ago someone was trying something similar called "debian installer" or something, I haven't tried it out so maybe that actually works, idk, I am happy with this.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edge-Case:
LOL

LMFAO!

I just realized I don't think I needed to worry about testing if the variable $d was named 'dev' or 'mnt' because they should get skipped by already being mounted. If not I guess if it works as is, may be extra precaution.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edge-Case:
Done! Almost ;{)-

Uhmm.... hope you can see the screenshot...

its over wifi though, I had to edit the init.sh script just eth0 to wlan0 in 2 lines, duh! where is eth0 on phone?

Pretty happy with it now, so far. Touch FIXED

Well, I am tethered from my phone to my laptop, running ubuntu, this is how I am on the internet, so my phone is doing that...

I ran 'ettin.sh /storage/sdcard0/ubuntu ubuntu' using V-0.022 and only had two files that needed overwriting.

The touch is working....check

adb is working...check

Everything is mounted ...check

Apps like browser and dsploit are working on the phone as usual...check

'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade'....check (over adb, no chroot, as root@localhost using bin/bash)

'which nmap' .....check ("

root@localhost:~# which nmap

/usr/bin/nmap

")

Well **** ya'll looks like this might work... I am now going to consider modifying a stock rom to support users and login that meshes with debian and its "shadow" file etc etc, also I need to work out permissions and enviroment variables...

I'm happy...

Also for pentesting distro's "modifying Android kernel" tutorials would be nice, anybody able to point me to one?

Best clear back Tpu case with minimal bulk that I have found. Not frosty clear colored, no patterns, or even logos. Going to buy this soon so I will report back on quality and fit.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Soft-Sh...9058090074&skuId=1645012&st=moto X&cp=1&lp=10

Edit: Really tight fit and good grip due to the silicone. It is slightly flexible to make it easy to take off, wash it, and put it back on. I admit that it is a little on the expensive side for $25, but this is probably the best I have found as an early motoX owner that allows the color customization to be showcased without the case getting in the way.
