Hello, I would like to use the square reader, or something similar (paypal here or intuit gopayment etc) but these readers need the dual type 3.5mm jack. The kind that can play audio but also act as a mic. Has anyone had any success using one of these cc readers with the touchpad?

Hi XZU users.

First post here since I moved from the GT N7000 forums.

Just a quick question about achieving root on our devices..........and it isnt "how does I get root".

Maybe someone that is way more intelligent than me can help but............ Every other phone I have used or rooted has been via an exploit found or created by the wonderful people here on XDA. Usually all packed up nice in a trustworthy file, whether it be a handy one click app, a bin file to auto run some adb method or a small auto root windows program.

Why is the only available root at this time via this Chinese websites programme?

Please do not think Im asking for another root method. I understand the complexities involved around android development. Thats why I dont do it.

Just wondering.......
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I totally get what you're saying. I was a huge skeptic, and i even talked to Chainfire to see what he though about vRoot (the rooting app in question). He hasn't looked at it, but he doesn't really trust chinese software, and i'm the same. But, i rooted it with vRoot, and i can't say that i've found anything unusual after rooting, and trust me; i've looked -like a mad man.

We have no idea how it works, but it works, so some people have spent a lot of time making this, so it would be kind of weird if it's malicious. If the app pulled info from the device, and didn't root, then it would be a catastrophy.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] x5starguerillaa:
Im the same.....Just dont trust Chinese software.

Do you think if someone had the skills that the vroot app could be "reversed engineered" as such. Broken down to see what info it takes from our devices.....maybe even see what exploit its running to achieve root?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I did actually try that :p I found the right tools to decompress and decompile .EXE files, but that was totally chinese to me. I had no idea what i was looking for, or at. We'll need a dev of some sorts to check this one out. You can also install a "tracker" on your computer to see what the app does in real time when it roots your device. There are several free programs that can do this, but i have never used one, so i don't know how complicated it is.

I spent like 40 minutes on the phone last night with Verizon techs and got nowhere.

I upgraded to note 3 from the Thunderbolt and am having shoddy signal issues.

The major one is at my job where it's a 1 story warehouse and my office is literally 14ft from the door outside. I used to have no issues with signal on 3g or 4g with my tbolt or any previous phones and with my note 3 I cannot even make a phone call go through - it will show dialing and then after 10 or so seconds just quit. 4g either shows 2 bars or sometimes will go circle with a line through it for no service. Sometimes the internet works other times it does not.

I've also had issues driving home in which I will not receive a phone call and a voicemail will pop up or the person I'm talking to will say the phone is cutting out.

Any advice?

Current signal strength in my office is

-116dBm 24 asu

Was

-111dBm 23 asu last night.

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdadevnube:
That is some fairly poor signal. You should check your thunderbolt and see how it does in the same location. The radios in the thunderbolt are solid. It is worth trying a new Note3 if the thunderbolt performs better. If more than one Note3 performs poorly, then there is a good chance that the antenna or radio implementation in the Note3 is not as robust as the thunderbolt.

Let us know.

After going to one of my regular lunch spots and not being able to make/receive a phone call at all I threw in the towel and a verizon tech has a new gn3 on the way. I've seen a couple other threads here and there noting the same issues I have. Some of them said they were told by verizon that switching the phone is not going to help. We'll see.

One other odd note which I see no one talking about -

When I plug my gn3 into my computer it just charges.

Whether its usb3 or usb2 - there is no way to access or transfer any files - no popups saying device connected. Just charges the phone quietly.

I've tried installing and re-installing samsung drivers, also tried that kies program, no dice.

Having the same issue with my note 3. Seems to have gotten slightly better the past few days, but still poor compared to my note 2. Thinking about taking it back to Verizon this week. Anyone know how the return/exchange process works? If I exchange it and still have problems then what are my options? Or if I return it do I get my upgrade back? Can I then repurchase it and have another 14 days to test and potentially return it?

Hi everyone,

Im kind of new to the android world and stupid for me i did things without being absolutely certain. So i have an unlocked originally Rogers Htc one and i had it under the google play edition rom with cwm recovery installed, unlocked bootloader and all that good stuff. I needed to send it in for warranty purposes so i wanted to try to put it back to stock sense 5 rom. i followed tons upon tons of videos and i ended finding an RUU that might have worked so i relocked my bootloader and followed the processes but every time i did typed the "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" command it would go 75% of the way and then stop but in the command window it said successful. Unlocked my bootloader again but i forgot that it wipes everything so now i dont even know if i have cwm installed to flash any rom at all. So basically i think my phone is bricked :'( im crying my head off. If anyone has any input on how i can convert this htc one back to stock and working or even any custom rom just so it can work please let me know im really scared at this point.

when i typed in fastboot getvar all i got this

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
You've tried to flash a firmware, not a ruu :)

However, you're on 1.44 hboot, you can use the revone tool for put your phone in s-off.

With the s-off you can port your phone like a stock phone (the same of when you bought it).

Now, for use the revone, you need a rom.

For install a rom, go to fastboot, reflash the CWM or the TWRP.

After, go to advanced and press: adb sideload, and, from a prompt of your pc, do this command:

adb sideload name_of_rom.zip

(you should have the rom into the adb folder).

Now the recovery will flash the rom, and you can use the revone for acheive the s-off.

When you've the s-off, you can restore a nandroid backup and relock the bootloader with the text (locked).

Or, you can change CID and MID for unbrand your phone and flash all ruu you want.

p.s. I will advice you to remove the imei and the serial number of your phone :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
+1 on the S-Off part, do it while you still can.

If you flash a new firmware (has to be signed of course since you're s-on), it will update your hboot to 1.54/1.55 and then you won't get a chance to get s-off.

Personally, I think that's the first thing to do. And this in turn will allow you a lot of possibilities to return fully to stock; otherwise your bootloader will always say "RELOCKED" and "TAMPERED", as opposed to just LOCKED.

IMHO

The phone came finally.

Had it for 30min's and couldnt resist rooting. :) Still on Stock rom but modified some.

My steps if anyone is wondering why and how,

1. Install root thread.

2. install TWRP thread easy method

And your all set. Take a TWRP backup from your phone, and you're safe to start tweaking.

Things i did,

1. Installed my favorite apps, titanium backup, romtoolbox and bbs etc... changed dpi and did backups.

1. Xposed+App Settings to get camera and msg apps back to 480 ( Using 360 dpi systemwide )

2. Xposed xprivacy (really liking this) for handling apps and what they can do. Found inside xposed on modules list.

3. Bought GMS autohide soft keys root from google play, seems like a godsend. Found on google play store.

4. Allso bought g2 xposed mod from play store for nice black statusbar. found on google play store.

Next in project list is to clear bloatware and find some nice status bar icons or autohide statusbar that works with stock rom.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
Of you find a proper auto hide statusbar solution let me know. The best i came up with is forcing full screen in most apps with xposed app settings and putting a nova shortcut of "expand statusbar" into swipepad. Works but is too laggy now and then.

If you haven't got a firewall but want one take a look at afwall+ by the way. Easy setup and high practicability due to different profiles. If you got apps you don't want to completely deny Internet with xprivacy you can deny it at certain times with afwall+

It does sound like a lot I agree. Just take it one step at a time and then you realize you're just:

1) Editing 2 characters in a text file

2) Packaging it back up in a .dex file

3) Replacing it in a zip.

4) Sign it like a system apk file

Kinda like theming if you think about it. Just gather all the tools and make backups of everything. The worst thing that could happen, (and I've done it) is that file is invalid and you have to pull the battery and reboot to recovery to replace it back.
