being happy with your setup is all that you can ask for, and that is great for the op. but im not trolling, im being realistic. if you post something online, you have be ready for posts that agree with and disagree with you. my point was that there is no best rom/kernel, there is only a best rom/kernel for your person device, and your own personal needs. all our devices differ and all our needs differ. so his best setup can turn out to be someone elses worst setup.

[Motorola Atrix HD] BackDoorNoBaby:
Previously, I installed Cyanogenmod (http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=RC&device=mb886), and still had root access, but there was an issue with the baseband.

So I just installed HoloBlur (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2356624), fixed the baseband (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2233871) and now it seems that I do not have full root access and Superuser binaries will not update.

First, I downloaded the superuser binaries and zip files to try and update them that way (http://androidsu.com/superuser/)

But that didn't work so I downloaded and used this (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.noshufou.android.su.fixer&hl=en), which crashed after trying to gain root access. No superuser options show up in settings, and Superuser wants to crash. I have tried superuser from Chainfire and Koush. Neither can update binaries, and the version by Koush wants to crash. I assumed I didn't have root access.

I have tried using motochopper again (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2227938)

and I have tried using Myth Tools again (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2262726) (basically another motochopper...)

Neither have worked.

So:

How do I gain root access again if none of the above methods work? Is it possible?

Yes, bootloader is still unlocked, and CWM is still installed. Just, no root access.
[Motorola Atrix HD] chococomaxim:
Flashing superuser.zip should work. That is what I did when I installed holoblur. I would need to find the link though
[Motorola Atrix HD] BackDoorNoBaby:
That fixed it. Sorta.

Went back into CWM recovery, selected to install from zip, and installed the zip from here: http://androidsu.com/superuser/

This was the one that worked:

(3.2-RC3)

md5: 6462ac14cd38ed7c539ce3e29a6b92a8

Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip

Apps are now gaining superuser/root access but it doesn't seem to be working like the normal superuser.

The default superuser apps still aren't working.

I'll have to check up on it more when I get back from classes.
[Motorola Atrix HD] BackDoorNoBaby:
Oddly enough, the chainfire superuser app now installs correctly.

For some odd reason, it requested access from the first one installed. Either way, it's working, and it seems as if all the apps that need root access are getting it. I don't see any special Superuser settings in the menus, but I'm guessing that's just a feature i've been seeing in all the roms.

Long story short: Problem solved

Hope this topic helps anyone who has similar issues.

Touchwiz will not load at 160dpi is the reasn i 'pushed' Apex from the Play store.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] RavenY2K3:
Nah, that's what's supposed to happen, it's gone "Full Tablet mode" lol.

If you clear the data on the launcher, it should sort itself out and display in a tablet form.

Thanks for that.

anyway to force it on non rooted devices? .

I shall clear my caches and try again.

Thanks again
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] RavenY2K3:
You only need to do it on the app itself, if clearing doesn't work, install another launcher then, remove and install the one you originally installed. But make sure you have at least one other Launcher than the default TouchWiz one or you could find yourself in a whole world of headache.

And no, the file that gets edited to change the dpi can only be done once rooted.

As we all know, B&N replaced the previous browser with Google Chrome (ugh!) in v2.1.x.

There is an alternate method (for another device) that is supposed to not modify /system/app/: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2385933

However, I have been unable to get it to work: "Problem parsing package"

[HTC Sensation] Micalee:
Hello all.

My goal is to Root my Sensation 4g. However, due to an odd sequence of events, my Sensation 4G ended up with what I gather is an odd set of conditions... listed below. I've read and reread a multitude of how-tos within these XDA-Developers pages, but I have not come up with exactly how to proceed. As you can see, it doesn't say locked, or unlocked, or whatever other locked options exist. I understand that Firmware 3.33 is non-stock. Also, note that the phone is already S-OFF and HBOOT is 1.27.1100. Apparently this is an unusual combination. That all brings me to the big question. Which mechanism do I use to root the phone? I want to retain the ability to apply OTA updates, so it is my understanding that I need to keep stock recovery. Is this true or not? I guess that's it. How do I just root the phone without screwing up something else, or bricking it?

Thanks for your time.

[HTC Sensation] astar26:
For OTAs you need the stock recovery, yes. However, as things currently are, there will be no further OTAs, so that's something you should consider, and so you can just flash another recovery and flash a custom ROM.

You can flash a rooted kernel found on this guide (end of step 2 and step 3), but since it is 3.32, I'm not sure if it will work (but it might). You can also use other kernels for this which are compatible. just use the fastboot flash boot path/to/boot.img command on fastboot.

However, being rooted might also block OTAs, but I'm not sure of that.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
For OTA requires stock recovery and stock kernel AFAIK

But as above user said there are no OTA updates for sensation anymore so it is pointless
[HTC Sensation] Micalee:
Thank y'all for the information. I had not heard about the OTA updates. I guess I'll not worry about that.

I went to the link provided by astar26 and I reviewed steps 2 & 3 as recommended. I've read that section before. I'm sure I understand the process, but I don't see where I am to get the "boot.img" file it mentions. I've downloaded a variety of files from various places, but I don't have a boot.img file, unless it is buried within one of the zip files, or in other executables such as the RUU files I ran before. When you say I can use "other kernels", I don't know for sure what that means, or where to get them, or how to determine which are okay for me to use with my T-mobile/Sensation 4G. My reason for rooting is so I can once again run Titanium Backup and other apps that require root. That is all I want to do at this time.
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
There is a way to add root to your existing kernel, but I don't remember it. A quick google search might lead to it (requires messing a bit with the shell).

The boot.img is inside the zip files, in the link I gave you, it is in the end of step 2. Just extract it from the zip, it's called boot.img.

They should all work, but you also need to install a superuser app. Try one such as SuperSU.

However, Until replying to this thread I did not know the rooting was in the kernel itself. And you can actually do it yourself with One click tools (such as the all-in-one toolkit for the sensation or even manually (first guide I found, I believe there are many more. Also, when using the mount command, the partition name might be /dev/block/mmcblk0p22, but I'm not sure if it's one or the other (the one I gave is definitly the /system partition, but in the ADB conext the other might work)).

Anyway, first try flashing the kernel and see how it will go.

Hello all,

I have just updated my SGS I19000 to Jellybean 4.3 via Cyanogenmod 10.2 ROM.

This is the first time i have flashed my phone with new ROM. Everything works great...everything but the mobile internet...the signal show strong signal plus Capital H which i know is the best signal possible for my phone....but when i go to browser the websites don't open, even though wifi works better than before.

I have made 100 % sure the APN settings are correct and this hasn't changed anything....I have set the roaming and data usage to yes...something i did on previous Gingerbread and worked before...but not now.....I backed up my previous ROM and this allowed me to bring over my pics, ringtone etc....do i need to import internet settings from SD card too or modem?

My base band appears to be correct and i'm sure wi fi wouldn't work if it wasn't.

Im hoping someone knows what the issue is here and can help me to sort out problem.

Update to previous message re jellybean 4.3

Update to rpevious message below:-

As far as I can see the phone is connecting perfectly well to HSDPA as this shows connected in ‘about phone’ and ‘status’ page. The problem seams to lay in the roaming function. I cannot get the roaming function to show roaming.

Also, I don’t know whether this is normal but ‘my phone number’ in status is showing unknown and I don’t know how to change this.

Im sure the APN setting is correct as given to me by phone company but if i need to change something let me know

I haven't had any replies to my previous message so im hoping someone can help.

You talk about roaming are you using roaming? You are in an other coutry then you provider?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
For roaming to work, you must first activate roaming in your home country by contacting your Sim Card provider by SMS message for approval.

Network providers may or may not have connections in the country you may be heading for, as such, only IF they do have an agreement in the other country and network, roaming will work.

This means, you cannot just walk into another country and hope to access another mobile network, when they have NO relationships with each other as to how the payment is processed for the use of their network.

SOLVED

Thanks for your help.

I managed to flash latest nightly ROM via CWM and now everything is great - and it sorted out my earlier problems which included lack of mobile internet, constant rebooting when turning on and problems with receiving sms texts.

For all those people having similar problem - here are the easy steps to get the new nightly 10.2 rom up and running on your Galaxy S:

1) Download the latest zip file for nightly ROM and latest GAPPS zipp file onto your computer.

2) Connect your mobile to computer and turn on the storage function so that you can see your phone's storage option on my computer.

3) Copy your 2 zip files from above to your phone's storage as zip files without extracting.

4) unplug your phone from the PC, turn off and then go into CWM via volume down/home and power buttons.

5) Select install zip from SD Card and then you should see error message something like 'partition is incorrect/different and you need to wipe data - don't worry about this as you will keep all your apps, ringtones, pictures etc.

6) Install zip from SD card a second time - this should now start the install process. Install the GAPPS file once this is done.

7) Reboot and you should be faced with a Cyanogenmod registration page. Go through the completion process and then your ready to go.

8) check in about phone in your settings to see the latest update in your settings.

I hope this works for you all but as always...this is what worked for me on my Galaxy S and any mod is at your own risk and I wont accept any abuse.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
Yea, it happens. There are several threads about it already. You might want to try clearing your Maps cache, turning off locator services (might derp other functions), or uninstalling and then re-installing maps.

Personally, I find that the "drain" is usually temporary and happens often around the same time anything "Google" is updated. You can try manually stopping the app in settings and then reboot the phone. Most times, the "drain will subside during the next charge cycle. If you need further information, try searching for the many threads that already exist about this. There is some good info in them. Good luck.

You can also use Greenify to "sleep" your Maps or any other app.

It should not be necessary though. A proper Maps install won't drain the battery at all.
