like the title says, does anybody have the samsung drivers for ubuntu? my phone doesnt want to connect to my computer running ubuntu 13.10
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dragonstalker:
type in

Get the vendor number.

Then use gedit to add the vendor number to :

this will allow adb to see your phone, Note sure if there is a way to install Ubuntu drivers from samsung
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] m_reyna_16:
what do you mean by vendor number?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dragonstalker:
If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a udev rules file that contains a USB configuration for each type of device you want to use for development. In the rules file, each device manufacturer is identified by a unique vendor ID, as specified by the ATTR{idVendor} property. For a list of vendor IDs, see USB Vendor IDs, below. To set up device detection on Ubuntu Linux:

Log in as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules.

Use this format to add each vendor to the file:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

In this example, the vendor ID is for HTC. The MODE assignment specifies read/write permissions, and GROUP defines which Unix group owns the device node.

Note: The rule syntax may vary slightly depending on your environment. Consult the udev documentation for your system as needed. For an overview of rule syntax, see this guide to writing udev rules.

Now execute:

chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

Samsung Vendor ID:

Samsung	04e8

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
MOD EDIT: Updated statement, not entirely true and currently under review. Hang tight, everything will be explained soon.

Remember the little discussion we had going in a thread here regarding vRoot, and i joked about vRoot was mining IMEIs? Well, apparently it's true . We have only ourselves to blame. I'm already rooted so i'll unlock my bootloader and install recovery. That way i don't need to root again if i screw something up. You "should" do the same if you're already rooted and don't care about losing Gracenote and X-Reality. Remember to backup your TA folder.

What does this mean? What are they able to do with our IMEI's (if they have them)? I'm not sure, and i won't speculate.

UPDATE:

We'll have to wait this one out and see what happens. In the meantime, do not use Kingo or vRoot.

UPDATE - 19 november:

FB post from Kingo:

If this is true, then it's safe to use Kingo again. We don't know if this is indeed true, but i don't see why they should lie about it since we can easily check it ourselves. Nothing from the devs behind vRoot though, so keep staying away from it for now.

Thanks to @stopa10 for keeping us updated :)

UPDATE - 8 december:

A new rooting tool has been released. Download it from this thread, and follow this guide (just swap vRoot with the new tool).

Thanks to cubeundcube (dev) and @RyokoN
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SpyderTracks:
Jesus, that's bad news! My laziness pays off for once, but damn them for doing that!

This should be a sticky.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Yeah, i was so soo skeptical when vRoot started to show up, and i refused to use it. Well, that was until i just had to have root, and i used it. I hate myself! :p

And yeah, i have PMed a mod and asked if this can be stickied so people don't use them.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SpyderTracks:
I was just about to root this weekend, had everything ready to go... Does this mean we have no root methods now?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Yup, that's correct. Check the mod edit in the OP btw. Things could change pretty quickly again.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] omniphil:
But vRoot does certainly grant root access.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Yeah we all had reservations about vRoot tool. But rooting was just to important to deny its easiness.

Will be interesting to see what the outcome is. What will happen from now... :eek:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
So does Kingo, but the thing here is that we don't know why they are pulling IMEIs and what not. You can use it, but you won't know what's actually happening in the background (while it's rooting). But read the OP. The people that are checking into this will update us when they have more on this. In the meantime, don't root unless you really really need to.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] x5starguerillaa:
Hmmm....

Lord M, remember the topic we had on vroot?

Exactly this.

Maybe ask chainfire to investigate further?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I PM'd Chainfire about vRoot back in september. He was skeptical, and wouldn't use it himself, and that was pretty much it. I don't know if he's part of the investigation now though.

We'll have to wait until the mods have investigated this further, but what we already know is that they're logging our IMEIs. If that's intentional or not is a different question and I guess that's why the mods are investigating it. All vRoot and Kingo links have been removed from XDA, but if you want to use them then be my guest. I'm not stopping anybody, I'm just warning you :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hansip87:
So.. I have once rooted with vroot.. But i have upgraded with PC Companion now (lost root). Does that still means my imei has been read too? :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Yup, it looks like our IMEIs are on a remote server some place (most likely in China). But we don't know what, if or what they can do with it. The mods are - as mentioned on the case, so we'll see what they find.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Also, Kingo posted this on their FB page today. If this is true, then it's not as bad as expected, but i hope it's the same story with vRoot (that they aren't mining data), since that's what we've used the most around here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] 3mL:
Quick question... Should I be worried?

I used vRoot.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I have also used it, including A LOT of other people. But no, you shouldn't be worried or lose any sleep :) We'll have to wait for the verdict from the mods, but no, I wouldn't be worried.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jeremy.chan:
i like their statement, it somehow rings of the truth being spoken, that it's a bunch of devs who want wide recognition (for the right things), and clarifying it like how they're doing is a good start to getting this resolved.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
As we say down here:

Bugger me

---------- Post added at 05:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 PM ----------

Just a thought...

Could the gathered imei be used to get blacklisted stolen phones to work again by cloneing our imei to the stolen phone?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Of course it could.

But I don't see how that could be useful to Chinese people, since a stolen phone with blocked IMEI can be used freely in another country.

For example, if I steal a phone here in Italy, and it gets IMEI blocked, I can sell it in the UK because it will definitely work there.

I also used vRoot like everyone else, it was simple, quick, and most of us needed it for restoring our old apps or for tinkering with DPI or something else.

I don't regret it, and I'm still skeptical about it being such a malware app. The only app I saw was MtkCamera, and I've just seen it on the first version of vRoot, not the last one.

Furthermore, I did a full scan with McAfee (and uninstalled the minute after) and it didn't find anything.

That doesn't mean the whole process it's secure (because it pushes data into the phone and erases it after it's done), but it's a start.

Just my 2 cents obviously, not backed up by any concrete proof. ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SweFox:
Interesting.. I just don't understand how IMIE could be useful for them if it now was intentional to save it.

It's not like they can block the IMIE from another country is it :s? And even if they block/clone it or whatever, does this even make a difference being another country and all?

How important is IMIE? I know it's like your personal number and you use it to block the phone within the country. For example, I know people sell phones that they got from a contract, the carrier then blocks the IMIE and sends them a new phone making the scammer get away with money and a new phone.

But still, from another country?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Ehm... Just said the same thing on the post above yours... Not a page, not 10 pages before, just ONE post. ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Pfhortune:
Hi guys!

First off, no, I am not affiliated with, nor being paid by SlingGrip to write this. But I do want to share this great little product since I haven't seen anyone else mention it for this phone.

When I first got my Note 3, I wanted something to supplement the one-handed mode that would help me use the phone with one hand. I looked at a few different solutions, but the SlingGrip caught my eye because it was pretty inexpensive and made in the US. I ordered a purple one and waited while it and my case came in.

All the SlingGrip is, is a small elastic strap that you can hook your fingers in to give you a more secure hold on the phone. I got it, peeled it off the card it comes on, and stuck it right to the back of my case. It holds very securely with a 3M glue strip. It does add a fair bit to the thickness of the phone and keeps it from lying flat on a table, but this was a non-issue for me. The plastic and elastic strip feel pretty good, and it's such a simple combo that I don't forsee it breaking under normal use.

This was a godsend for using the phone with one hand. I ended up not even using the one-handed mode on the phone, with this I can reach the entire screen without feeling like I will drop the phone!

I just ordered a three-pack since I got a new case, and I highly recommend checking it out!

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] rawrfische:
Approximately how big is the mounting square for these things? I'm really intrigued by these add-on holders (sling grip, iring, flygrip, etc) but the UAG case I have has all kinds of funky grooves and designs on the back. :x
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Pfhortune:
Yeah, I was turned off by the grooves on the UAG case for just that reason. I'm guessing that the slinggrip is longer than the center part where the logo is...
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] GloriousGlory:
I feel like you'd be much better off just getting a lanyard. There are cases that allow lanyard attachments and they're a lot easier to use, just throw it on your wrist.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Pfhortune:
Lanyards don't help with holding the phone at all. All that does is catch the phone when you've already lost your grip.

got the firmware package from kurio. but it wont flash the package. seems it only flashes newer firmware, not the same or older firmware.

so i am wondering if anybody has got around this issue. it seems the update script has an assert to verify a version. i have tried many times to alter it, but i couldnt figure it out.

i tried to make an update.zip with system files but cant figure that out either

[General Questions and Answers] CrazyKanuk:
Flashing via ADB fails but SD Card works!!!

Wow, my Kurio 7S is no longer dead. Woohoo!

Here is what didn't work (then I will state what did work):

I booted to recovery mode (hold power and volume + both for 10 seconds until Kurio screen then release power button until recovery menu shows up).

I tried a factory reset on my Kurio 7S didn't work, also wiped the cache partition, retried factory reset, still wouldn't boot.

Tried the reset pin next to the microSD card (pushed in for 10 seconds ... still no luck).

Tried flashing a Kurio 7 ROM ... bad idea as the screen was stuck on the Kurio initial screen.

Finally found this link on XDA and tried flashing "Kurio7S_OTA_US_106a.zip" via the ADB option and got the assert error.

assert failed: !less_than_int(1359692121, getprop("

ro.build.date.utc"))

I then tried flashing "Kurio7S_OTA_US_106a_ROLL-BACK.zip" via the ADB option (ADB sideload <filename>).

ADB sends 100% of the zip file, verifies the update package and starts installing, then gets part way and then throws an error.

The blue progress bar gets to the "d" in the word "update" and the status says

installing uboot then error is thrown ... says: "Error!"

(I cannot see the actual error as the recovery menu covers it up)

Then I think the install restarts again ... and again.

What actually worked:

I then took my SD Card and formatted it using my android Galaxy S5 phone & copied the Kurio7S_OTA_US_106a_ROLL-BACK.zip" to the card using my PC, then I flashed the Kurio 7S using the T-F option (i.e. SD CARD).

Note: The update might take about 2 minutes to flash so be patient!

:D
