[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lupoalberto28:
Hi

I'm searching for a stock ROM 4.3 google edition for my Samsung Galaxy S4. If there is a way without root, I'd prefer that one.

The most important thing for me is the possibility to get OTA updates directly from Samsung/Google. So I'd like to turn my stock S4 into a stock Google edition S4. Is there a way?

I already searched for this in various Sub-Forums on this site, but there are so many ROMs and I don't know which is the right one for me?

Thx

With or without root, you can't get official updates if you're on google edition 4.3.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lupoalberto28:
Thank you for the links. The ROM of the first link you posted I'm using for about 2 months, but unfortunatly it does not seem to support ota updates, since I'm still on built number JWR66.S005.130625 and there are newer builts on the internet.

Also the rest of your posted ROMs don't seem to get ota updates directly. The only way to get updates seems to be by installing them manually. :(

Maybe there is no way (atm) to turn a S4 into a pure stock Google Edition S4.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lupoalberto28:
That's what I ment. :(

Is there a way to get an "incremental" update for my built number to a more actual version? I don't like it to completly restet the device just for an update...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RossFixxed:
All the 4.3 GE roms are custom ones and you won't get any OTA. This may change but that's it for now I'm afraid.

Finally something worked in recovery to me, thank you so much :cowboy:
[Android Software Development] mike0jj:
thanks,, awesome.

I was having terrible time with ffmpeg, but your tool did take cool shots in recovery..

5 stars.
[Android Software Development] majdinj:
Well Thanks..

ffmpeg can work on some devices recovery if you got the right switches.. In my phone, mmpeg takes pic from recovery but not clean one. So this one is better..

cheers
[Android Software Development] mike0jj:
thanks for info, I have another question? can you take shot from download mode?
[Android Software Development] majdinj:
upto my knowledge; no.. since you can't use adb in that mode.!!

but my question is: Why you want to do so? can you theme download mode???
[Android Software Development] MBariya:

Any chance to add support for downlaod mode?
[Android Software Development] majdinj:
The problem with download mode or fastboot mode, is that some shell commands don't work; only those to flash, erase, format..etc

But who knows, may be in near future some dev can do it for us...
[Android Software Development] Kamy:
Thanks for your tool, really helpful.:good:

Just to let you know, when trying to take several screenshot (take screenshot from recovery), it names each the same name so that next screenshot would overwrite the first one, I had to rename every photo to prevent overwriting.

[Android Software Development] m0han:
my device condition same as above. but, although there's no problem with my device being detected, the screenshots are no good. i rebooted and tried again. see screenshots. the os ones are fine, as you will see...
[Android Software Development] majdinj:
I think you need to update your usb driver, since "no device found" has nothing to do with the tool

It is the fb2png binary,,, I will see if I can come up with new way to get screenshot from recovery

Edits:

It seems a lot of works by developers in this matter,,, unfortunately it seems not universal in between OEM to take screenshot in recovery,,,

Try to use modified fb2png by [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION], put it in tools folder and see

Check if you're running USB 3.0

There have been oddities show up whilst USB 2.0 has fewer or zero faults due to phones being on standard 2.0 USB connection.

It could just be down to the Data Speeds in the same way USB 2.0 screws up USB 1.1 if your device runs faster than your PC.

Hi.

Maybe a stupid question, I am quite new to these things...

When I close the GPRS connection, after some seconds, the phone keypad and a notification bubble appear. The message in the bubble is in Italian: "La connessione dati e' terminata" (that is "Data connection is ended"), therefore I suppose it come from my provider (WIND) and not internally fro the phone.

Is there any way to stop this annoying notification?

Hello there.

I couldn't find any thread that was about my specifik problem.

Yesterday I updated my HTC one x to the new sense 5 and got formiliare with the productivity lock screen.

It worked great, and I have been using it together with the tasker app. So when I have an appointment or task it remindes me on the lock screen.

But a few hours ago it just disappered. I have checked the app and calender in the settings for productivity lock screen, and they are on, but nothing shows up, even if I make a new appointment. If i get a sms it shows up, but that's it.

Hi guys,

After years of other phones and recently iphones, ive now just got an android.

Im interested in playing around, so would like to root my phone.

I have the Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 running 4.1.2

Its a UK phone and is on Three network.

I need pointing in the right direction on whats best to do/first projects.

Do I need to unlock my phone from my network if it is locked to my network (I dont know yet)

And ive seen the video on this site for the S3 and im guessing ill have to go by the second way of rooting as im also guessing my phone would be classed as international? Also it said that one of the cons would be an increased flash counter - what is this?

I would like to do this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1722136 due to like all of them, my audio is quite poor when plugged into my amp, I need to increase the volume MUCH more on the amp than on anything else I would plug into it.

Would this be a good one to start on?

Any tips and advice would be awesome, and maybe when I get some work under my belt I may be able to give some input myself on here :confused:

Many Thanks

I'll definitely be doing alot of research and making sure i understand before I start anything. Ive come across nandroid which will be very handy!!!

Does anyone know if this can take backups of the unrooted phone.

And from what ive read, it saves everything on your SD card, So i'm guessing if I take a backup before and after doing something, I can cut and paste all previous backups to a folder on my PC to keep file size down and have just the recent workable backup on the card?

Thanks for the help s far guys.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SignetSphere:
There is a way to backup without root but it requires advance knowledge on how ADB shell works (Even I have a hard time understanding it hence i don't use it lol) So having a custom recovery is necessary and from there doing a nandroid backup is much more simpler. You may also look at Online Nandroid which makes a backup even if the phone is not on recovery mode but only attempt this method when you fully know how to operate a rooted phone as this method also require some knowledge on how a Terminal Emulator works.

CWM + Root for SAMSUNG Galaxy Pocket Neo ( GT-S5310 )

WARNING!!! This solution provided as is (with no warranty of any kind). Be careful because the described operations rather dangerous and possibly can brick your device. Author is not responsible for your device damage.

IMPORTANT: Usage of this method will affect the state of the "Custom BIN down" counter in your device. This means that you may have problems with official warranty.

Step 1. Getting software

1. Download Odin 3.0.7 here

2. Download CWM-based recovery here

3. Download update package for rooting here (downloaded from here Thanks to Phil3759)

4. Install Samsung drivers\kies this page (This link is for S5301 but it works ok for S5310 in current case)

P.S. Sorry for ugly file storage solution - google drive. If it will open the zip archive just click "File" menu and click "Download" (or use Ctrl+S combo).

Step 2. Flash the updates

1. Switch off the device. Hold "volume down"+"home" buttons and press power button. When device switch on release the power button but continue to hold volume down and home until Download mode warning appear. Plug in the USB cable and press volume up button to continue. The device will load in ODIN download mode.

2. Run ODIN 3.0.7. Don't change any setting (checkboxes ) - leave them in default state. Your device should appear in "ID:COM" part of the screen as serial device (i.e. "COM38") - if not check if your USB port is functional and Samsung drivers installed correctly.

3. Click on PDA button and chose CWM recovery file saved during step 1.2. Don't rename or decompress the file - otherwise it will not work.

Wait until ODIN decompress the package and check the checksums. After it just press START button and wait until the process is over.

4. Copy update package for rooting on SD card and put the card in device's slot.

5. Switch off your device again. Hold "volume up"+"home" buttons and press power button to switch on. Don't release volume up and home until the recovery loaded. Using volume up and volume down buttons navigate to menu item "apply update from external card" and press power button to commit operation. Then navigate to Root_Superuser_3.1.3......zip file and press power button again.

Notice: you can use sideload feature instead of using SD card: in recovery run "update from sideload" and on your computer run the following command:

adb sideload rooting_package_filename

6. Done. Your device should be rooted now. You can check it with various free programs like Root Checker available at Google Play.

Enjoy

[Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo S5310] Thailandian:
I tried this tonight. The good news is my phone is not bricked :good:

The bad news is my phone is not rooted :(

Everything worked as described until the last stage - in recovery I keep getting the message

The other thing I'm curious about is that my recovery mode looks suspiciously like the vanilla Samsung recovery, although I only looked at that once, so I can't be sure. According to ODIN, the update was successful.

How can I check the type of recovery mode installed on my phone?

Thanks again for your efforts, and for any further advice you can provide.

For anyone else having trouble with this, you have to copy the root zip in the external storage(microSD) then after succefully flashin CWM from Odin you have to press the recovery keys ( Vol+ and home) to enter recovery before the phone get to reset from the odin PDA flash, this mean to press the buttons right after the status bar fills on the phone screen, this is the trick to enter the real CWM recovery and not the stock one, from here you can flash the root zip.
[Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo S5310] m.r.davies:
So you have 4.3 or 4.4?

Dont suppose you have bluetooth low energy device that can test the btle feature?

[Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo S5310] vulturext:
Sigh....silly me.so after flashing with Odin, the device will restart automatically. To get the CWM to work, hold down VolumeUp + Home key when the device restart itself the first time. If you're late, the device will boot normally and CWM will be lost. So you have to flash via Odin again.
