* How To Root, Update Firmware, & Flash A Custom ROM

*

--> Unlock your device

Step1. download and use this program to unlock your bootloader http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1604677

Step2. SuperCID your phone so you can S-OFF and so you can also write the T-MOB010 CID if you are on a different carrier and want to run this ROM. You will need to be CID T-MOB010 if you want to run the firmware.zip Follow this to SuperCID http://xdaforums.com/show...1#post26516911

Step3. After you have sucessfully unlocked your bootloader and SuperCID you can either S-OFF your phone or Not, it is up to you. I would recommend you achieve S-OFF so you can flash radios, kernels, and boot.img's. Follow this to achieve S-OFF http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2155135

If everything went well you should be able to reboot into bootloader using the All In One Tool and in the top left your bootloader should say Unlocked, S-OFF, CID-1111111

--> Writing T-MOB010 CID

If you did everything right then your all set. Next you will want to run the fastboot command " fastboot oem writecid T-MOB010 " and reboot into bootloader again. Now in the top left it should say CID-T-MOB010. If you have made it this far you are doing great. Now we are going to run the firmware.zip package to ensure everything works without a problem.

--> Flashing the firmware.zip

You must know how to adb fastboot with command promt windows only

Download this :

https://db.tt/XhPpOiVS

Now if you are coming from STOCK OEM LOCKED T-MOBILE PHONE that already has Andorid 4.1.1 Jelly Bean on it then you do not need to do this step. You must be CID T-MOB010 to flash this or S-OFF CID 11111111

1. fastboot oem lock

2. fastboot erase cache

3. fastboot oem rebootRUU

4. fastboot flash zip firmware.zip, and you might get an error

5. fastboot flash zip firmware.zip again and it should pass and install a bunch of files should take about 2 minutes.

6. the phone does NOT reboot on its own so #7

7. fastboot reboot or fastboot reboot-bootloader

--> UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER AGAIN

Now we need to unlock the bootloader again so just do step 1 again but you will already have the Unlock_code.bin from the first time you unlocked you phone so no need to get another one from HTC but if for some funny reason it doesn't work you will need to just resubmit for a new one.

--> CUSTOM RECOVERY

After doing all the above steps you will need to install the custom recover. You will need to use TWRP 2.3.3 to insure no problems. Here is the link to download it http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/vil....3.0-ville.img after you download it go to the DIR where you have the HTC One S All-In-One Toolkit v3.5 extracted. example: C:\Users\yourusername\Downloads\One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v3.5\One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v3.5\Data\Recoveries and in the Recoveries folder rename the downloaded twrp2.3.3.img to TWRPS4.img and replace the one that is in the folder and then proceed to install the recovery.

--> Intermission

Your current phone status

Bootloader = Unlocked

S-OFF

HBOOT = 2.15

CID = T-MOB010

Custom Recovery = TWRP 2.3.3

You are now ready to flash any Jelly beam ROM.

Hello,

I need some help. I rooted my Verizon S3, JellyBean 4.1.2 using these steps from XDA . I tried to install MOAR...i'm a noob, so i bricked my phone ...twice. I was able to flash a back a stock firmware using these steps from androidrooting . I really want to install MOAR.. The two times I tried to install, I run recovery mod, unzip the MOAR zip, it ran the AROMA installer and I was able to chose the options I wanted. After the AROMA was done and the phone rebooted it gave me the Orage triagle, saying that there was unauthorized software installed and to turn my phone off and bring it to a verizon store. What do you think I'm doing wrong, and how could i fix it? I really want MOAR on my phone. THANKS!!!

I downloaded the Verizon MOAR ROM version from androidrootz

I'm missing something. I know how to use automateit or tasker to do the little things like toggle radio state and whatnot. But I want to use tasker to execute a specific task within an app and I seem to be coming up blank. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hollywoodfrodo:
This would only be possible if the app itself has tasker integration allowing it OR if there is a specific app activity for the action in which case you could install AutoCut (allows Tasker to trigger shortcuts) and Nova Launcher which allows you to pick app activities as shortcuts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 1454:
I figured it out. In the ir thread there was a guy who made a plug-in to use the binary code with Tasker. It works perfect. Thanks though.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IMissPalmOS:
I leave the volume turned up 100% on my phone, always, and hate when I discover it has been turned down somehow accidentally.

On my old Motorola flips, I would literally take them apart and cut the connection to the volume down button so that I could turn it up all the way and forget about it.

I figured that in the Android world there would be an app that effectively does the same thing. I did find a couple, but none seem just right. One that looked perfect doesn't work on the S4 Active, some are far too bloated for my simple needs, others run constantly in the background...

I am rooted. Is there a mod I can do to just disable or re-assign the the volume down button and be done with it?

Thanks!

I'm using S2 i9100g with Cyanogenmod 10.1.3

Yesterday I tried to mute camera sounds by changing the names of:

camera_click.ogg

camera_focus.ogg

videorecord.ogg

videostop.ogg

from System/media/audio/ui

and everything went right untill (and here the problem) I intended to change the lock/unlock sounds with the stock Samsung JB lock sounds

from the same directory by renaming the stock sounds as the same sound files names in System/media/audio/ui

[lock.ogg/unlock.ogg] and finally replacing them and restart the phone

but after restarting non of the sounds that I replaced has played (lock/unlock sounds muted)

I tried to re-replace with Cyanogenmod original sound files but still no lock/unlock sound

Please anyone can help

I didnt realize how much the note 3 totally blows the doors off the graphics of the 5s. Look at the 3dmark ice storm benchmarks. Is the 5s really that bad compared to the Note 3 snapdragon or am I missing something?

Note 3 vs. 5s

19,661 vs 13,858
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clninja:
1 . Yea the note 3 is a better phone

2. Benchmarks are meaningless as they don't relate to real world use at all.

3. That benchmark test is most likely not optimized to take advantage of the 64 bit processor in the 5s

4. Along with most apps are not optimized to take advantage of the 64 bit processor in the 5s....
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatAuc12:
And 64bit would have very little relevance in those tests anyways. Main advantage of 64bit is basically allowing more RAM....
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mircury:
Ya, I've heard the real world argument a lot. Optimization can only make up for so much though and it's helpful to at least get an idea of performance with a benchmark test. I remember when the 4s was out the gpu was much faster than what was available to us at the time. Nice to see it reversed now.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] ExploreMN:
I noticed this app is on sale for $5. It looks nice, but there doesn't appear to be a trial or anything. Has anyone used this app before? How does it work? Is it any good/worth the cash? It gets good reviews, but I rather hear from the horse's mouth what the thoughts are. Does it seem to support pretty much everything? Anyone know if it supports DirectTV boxes? Can it be used with a HTPC that has a IR module? Can you configure the interface the way you like or are the screens only the way the dev wants them?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] AMoosa:
I had a dodgy apk of it, since it had been taken off the Play Store. I have now bought it while it's on offer. Excellent app. Simple universal remote control with a brilliant widget. And now the tablet version and HTC version are all built into one app. I'd recommend it. Well worth 5 bucks.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] ExploreMN:
Sadly it said it was on sale until midnight tonight. Saw it in the play store for $4.99, went to buy it and it was about to charge $9.99. Went to email the author, came back to try again and now play store had it at $9.99. Guess I'll wait for another sale...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] ExploreMN:
I guess a follow-up question (maybe I should make a new thread?) is this:

Are there any good free universal remotes? I tried a few and they are like "You can control any TV before 1990 for free" or "you can control these 2 types of TV" and then you have to pay.

I'm just looking for a free one that's decent until a really good one goes on sale again. I regret not getting this one. :(
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] mbze430:
I also use Smart IR Remote. Works great for the most part, but it can't learn. due to Samsung's implementation

I personally don't have DirecTV anymore, but it has about 20 codes for DirecTV boxes.

SOME buttons can be rearranged but not all... new buttons can be added as well in empty spots

Yes, but since the Samsung can't learn it might be limited by that.

Since I was playing with house money (the $25 google play credit for registering the note 8.0) I snagged the smart remote app at the $6.99 sale price and I really like it. I have 3 tv's on my wall along with a wall mounted touch screen jukebox with infrared support. It was easy to come up with one page of the only needed buttons for all 3 tv's and juke box. I also edited the apk and added some images of local channels that were added to quick channel macros. The screen scrolls and includes the same channel macros for each of my other 2 tv's. The main power button in the upper left is a macro that sends power toggle to the 3 tv's and audio system.

**edit** Forgot to add that I have 4 zones of lighting controlled via infrared that is also handled in my main screen.

good day.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] le0.br4zuc4:
How did you put the channel icons on the buttons?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] chopper the dog:
I don't use a dvd player so most of the custom icons for skip, play, rewind etc. were not used. I just replaced those icons in the apk with my local channel icons and resigned the apk and installed. I created macros for favorite channels and applied the channel icon within app. You can get icons from here http://www.iconharmony.com/icons/watchtv?category=harmonyOne. I did have a little contact with the app dev and they are working on "favorite" channel buttons that will also allow for adding icons from sd. The dpad only gets used within a universal remote. Create a new universal remote named direct tv and apply the commands and buttons from you direct tv remote in the edit mode and hide your original direct tv remote from the remote list.

good day.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] ExploreMN:
I ended up buying it. Love the fact that I'm down to 1 remote (the Note 8). Sadly, two apps though since this won't work with my Roku. I have to use their app. Still, for two DirectTV, two TV's, and two DVD players (7 remotes total). It's a godsend!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] TC93:
I bought it but ended up choosing a refund soon after due to it being *very* hard to read the text in the settings. Its like its blurry or something on its black background.

Is it just me that experienced this?

I wanted this app but doubt I will buy it until that changes. The font displayed on the app screenshots are not the blurry text I saw in the app itself.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] qwerty7th:
I bought this app because it was on sale last week. It is a good app and highly customizable with its several blank button. The macros help me to set one button to control several device at once and also build a single remote/interface to control some basic command for several devices.

I have several remote which are not listed in the app so I send the app developer an email. Gladly, they reply it within a day. They point out that some of my unlisted remote actually already in the list but with difference name specially for Panasonic tv (they keep reuse same remote code for their line of product). They also said will try to add one of my unlisted remote code if possible. That's 1 star for good after sales service.

But I really hope it has learning function, which later I learn it is a limitation from Samsung side.

Anyway, using Note 8.0 as a remote is not really practical for it large size. Normal phone size is okay but not Note 8.0.

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 AM ----------

I don't have that blurry text problem specially not in setting. But when I press the setting button at the top right, it showed 3 more button ( SETTING, EDIT and RENAME). These 3 text are a bit blurry.

Hi,

I have a C6603 bought from Telenor in Sweden.

When I enter Service info -> Configuration, it says:

---8<---

Rooting status:

Bootloader unlock allowed: No

--->8---

I have flashed a unbranded stock rom on it and rooted it, but is there anything more I can do to unlock the bootloader?

It would be so nice to run CM on it...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
No. There is no way, either officially or unofficially, to unlock your bootloader.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *assa*:
I guess there is not much work ongoing trying to solve this problem, right?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nivarp:
That is my understanding as well. Since Sony has officially provided the option to unlock the bootloader, there is not enough incentive to try to break it unofficially. Hard luck for you though as your bootloader cannot be unlocked.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *assa*:
Maybe someone have already begun to look at lib_get_rooting_status.so and SecGetRootingStatus() trying to figure out what is read and where it is located? Maybe that's the first step towards a solution that can change "Bootloader unlock allowed"... :p
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
I don't know much on the subject and may be totally wrong, but I gather (from reading posts by people that do know) that the rooting status (bootloader unlock status) is determined by something stored in the TA partition. The lib you mention probably just queries the correct part of the TA and displays the result.

Any attempt to edit the contents of the TA partition will end in a hard brick of the device, so this approach has probably been put to one side by anyone working on this (if anyone is actually working on it).
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *assa*:
That might be the case. Do you remember where you got that information? I have, so far, only read that the TA partition is where DRM-keys are stored. I have also read that one should not restore a TA partition originating from another phone, or you will brick the device.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
This thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2287016 from page 4 onwards has some good info, especially posts by Tungstwenty.

There's also another thread linked by me on page 4 of that thread with lots of applicable information.

Edit : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2234627

Just FYI before you may try it, editing any signed parts of the TA will result in a brick, not just flashing somebody else's TA. As I understand it from reading bits and pieces here and there, it's part of the chain of trust (each part is verified by the next as part of the boot process), so there's no safe way to edit it and may never be.
