Everything below is expected behavior. Sounds like your phone is fine.

You are using the wrong button combination. 3e is stock recovery. For Download mode, you need to hold down vol+ and vol- (but not power) while plugging in the usb cable. That is how you "get into odin." Unless you still have the GT-I9100 secondary bootloader on the phone which would change the button combination. If that is the case, then you eventually need to go to the Download Repository and get the sbl.tar and flash it with Odin3 v1.85. There are some alternate ways of getting into download mode, but I don't remember off the top of my head which one works in this situation. This can be done later and will not prevent you from flashing custom firmware.

Of course not. You still have a stock kernel with stock 3e recovery. Stock recovery requires signed files, and only AT&T can sign them.

You didn't say which stock firmware you have. You need to flash a custom kernel that matches your stock firmware (Gingerbread, ICS of JB - needs to be the same.) Use Mobile Odin lite or Mobile Odin pro. Then once you have custom recovery, you will be able to flash the custom firmware of your choice.

Thanks for assisting Creepy.

Now that I can get into Odin with the proper key's, what do I flash with? Or do I need to use mobile odin?

I know this may seem like a very noob quetion but i wanted to get it cleared once and for all..

does cloud back end mean the following???

I have an app that collects data, processes it, and gives the output and the ui displays it.. all this done on the phone..

does cloud backend mean, my functions that process the data are in the cloud so i'm saving processing activity by letting it be done in that cloud..

all i have to do is send input and collect output. from my phone.???

Is this wat these services do???

Also if yes, what is the difference between the following..

Google app engine and compute engine??

cloud storage and cloud SQL??

which should i use to run functions and store temp data ( lasts not more than a week)..

and the data is processed once every minute but the size of data is not more than a few KB...

am basically doing a bit of number crunching.. collect a few numbers , run a function, return a number..

What would be ideal for me???

Cloud back end

Hi

Cloud computing is just a buzz-word, meaning that client application will use some dedicated network resource for some purpose. In some scenarios makes sense to use the back-end for data storage only. In others - for computations only. Others can combine between storage, analysis, computations, etc. Computations also can be performed partly on the client side, partly on the back-end side.

For deciding what is the boundary, splitting between the client and the back-end, usually the following considerations are taken:

Should the data be shared between client apps (may be of the same user or even across users)? If it should - most likely at least partial data storage needed to be cloud based

Is all the data, required for computation available at the client side? If not - may be makes sense to store missing data at the back-end and to cache it on the client side. If the data is dynamic and consistency across the clients is required - may be makes sense to perform at least part of the computation, requiring the back-end provided data to perform at the back-end, and then to continue computing on the client.

How often do you need to run the computation? If too often (e.g. more than once per second) back-end side computation will involve the network latency and data traffic overhead. So may be makes sense to perform the computation at the client side.

On the other hand - does the computation require computing power? Most of the client devices have rather weak CPU. Running heavy computations will take long time and will drain the battery. In this case at least the heavy parts of the computation makes sense to perform on the back-end

Etc, etc.

Regarding back-end storage as files or SQL: first of all, besides SQL databases there are a lot of other (NOSQL) kinds of DB. Such as: document DB, graph DB, etc. You need to decided which kind of data storage fits your needs best, based on the following considerations:

Which kind of data will be stored? black-box binary or composed from primitives (String/boolean/int/float/etc.)?

What are the relations between entries? For example for modeling social network, where entries are "Persons" and relations are from Person to many Persons - in this case graph usually DB fits best.

How data do you expect to retrieve the data? Is it just entry by some ID or you want to run queries by the fields of the entries?

In general, much deeper understanding of your problem is needed in order to give you more specific suggestions.

Good luck :)

Thanks
[Frameworks] nvyaniv:
we get data which is hardly a few KB but it involves a lot of processing.. The issue is that we used to use google drive app script to do this where within a minute we process 30 or odd request(we are still testing on a small scale.. this is more of a info gathering or research phase for us right now) .. these requests have to be processed within the minute.. cause the very next minute we recieve our next data package... Apps script said we used too much CPU for the time... So we are looking into app engine...

Any advice??
[Frameworks] shwonder:
Do you mean 30 requests per minute from each client? How many clients to you plan to have at production phase? I think it's too frequent for the option of performing all the calculation at the cloud. Can you split the calculation between the client and the cloud in such way that you can reduce the frequency of cloud based calculations? For example, may be not all the inputs of the calculation are indeed changing with this frequency. May be part of them are more static and you can calculate the part which depends on more static data at the cloud, and then to complete the calculation on the client side, using additional (more dynamic) inputs.

Also take into account that you can hardly assume that online connection is always available in mobile device. Sometimes your customers will be out of the coverage, sometimes the network will be switching from mobile data to WiFi and vice versa. It's a question of required reliability. From "...these requests have to be processed within a minute..." I understand that you need high reliability (otherwise it's not a problem to skip some requests if you are not able to process all of them).

Hi,

when I install program and select the option to install it on storage card or storage, it shows space unavaiable. but there is more than 600mb on the card and more than 50mb on storage. when I press ok to install it on storage card it install it there. you can check the file on explorer on you PDA.

I have got Kingston MMC plus card. it was fine until I formated the card. I have check the card through other readers, card looks fine it shows the space and files in it. card is perfactly recognise by my XDA.

Can anybody please help me to solve this problem.

Thanks

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Myriachan:
I ran into a technical hurdle with implementing the Windows RT 8.1 jailbreak. I believe that it will only be possible to install the jailbreak while in a command prompt recovery console. You'd have to hold volume down, or other similar mechanism for non-Surface products, select recovery, then select Command Prompt. You'd have to, of course, be very careful when you do this, because the "format your SSD" options are right next to it.

Would this make you reluctant to install such a jailbreak? Once installed, it should stay persistent until a major upgrade event like a service pack or Windows 8.2/9.0.

The reason for all this is because it turns out that what I'm trying to do can only be done on the C: drive. In order to do my exploit, I need raw write access to the disk sectors, and Windows does not allow writing to mounted filesystems to even applications running as Administrator. Only kernel drivers are allowed to do such raw writes, and I'm trying to become a kernel driver. They actually do this to defeat attempts to defeat driver signing. =)

A way to bypass this, of course, is to get to the drive when it's not mounted. You can't lock the C: drive for raw writing without booting to another OS installation, such as the recovery image.

This method is somewhat risky; I'd be doing sector-level writes to your primary disk partition. There would be a number of precautions to try to prevent writing to the wrong location, but there can never be guarantees that I don't screw up the code and delete your priceless documents.

How do you all feel about this?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] filfat:
I would totally be fine with this. Can't wait to see exactly how the Jailbreak works. Anyways if you need a Surface 2 tester to test before the finish release I could help XD
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] lowjoel:
I kinda guessed it would degenerate to this.

I won't mind, but then again I wouldn't consider myself an "average" jailbreak user, and compared to how easy (relatively) the initial RT8.0 jailbreak was this might be an issue.

Do we have any idea the kinds of people who are currently using the jailbreak?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] filfat:
According to Microsoft just hackers, according to me: Devs, Hackers, and noobs who think they can run Minecraft XD
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] lowjoel:
I'm rather concerned about the final group; the others are probably going to live fine with it.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] filfat:
Agree, still though release it but with quite a large USA-Style license. Like do not run this on your cat style ;)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] DarkoLord:
I don't think it matters that much (or at all) if it's a one time thing. While some people have the tendency to screw up everything regardless of how well the procedure is documented (you can't avoid those YOU BROKE MY DEVICE people anyway), they know the risks beforehand.

As for the data, the documents are most likely synced up to skydrive since the local-only account option is hidden pretty well in 8.1. :)

Also, just flashing a different ROM to a mobile phone can be much more complicated than your decribed procedure - just a couple of days ago I helped a friend to "upgrade" their Android phone and I had to install a SDK and issue some shady console commands over the USB in the recovery mode to get it to work. And as far as I could tell this is considered pretty standard.

PS2 jailbreak :)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] kitor:
I think it's OK. Do you remember rooting of first android phones? Working on ADB Shell and so on?

So one time boot into recovery and execute carefully some commands will be OK.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] sack148:
I think it's okay, too.

And if someone Says it isn't okay: Do you want to abandon all your work you have done for the Jailbreak so far?

I think a Jailbreak like this is better then none, and when there is no easier, less critical method to do it everyone should be fine with yours.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] domboy:
I'd be fine with it too. Especially since the procedure only has to be done once. Sure it might run the risk of data loss, but I'd be sure I had a backup first.

Hmm, not sure where I fit into that. IT guy that wants to make use of the RT desktop and isn't a hugh Modern UI fan, but couldn't afford a Surface Pro (and wanted the better battery life anyway). I can run Minecraft on it?!? ;)

Thanks again for all your work on this jailbreak Myriachan! I'd pretty much written RT 8.1 off as I had no idea if or when a jailbreak would or could be developed. But now I'm kind of excited!
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] cx1:
Looking forward to it.

I think most would be fine with it. If not, they do not have to use it.

Just put up a VERY BIG WARNING and beyond that you can't stop people from not following directions.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] hisoft:
If it have a way to go back to original state (before jailbreak, without factory reset). I don't have any problem.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] KalleEatingBrain:
Hi.

I would do it, as long as I end up with Notepad++ and svn on my Surface RT ^^

Thanks for asking, though. I really like your attitude.

I'm sending best wishes and keep on looking forward to the mighty jailbreak,

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] SixSixSevenSeven:
This is precisely what he meant, too many people seem to read jailbreak as: I can play minecraft. You can't.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] filfat:
I think he was joking.

Offtopic, but Minecraft should be able to run with a openGL-DriectX Wrapper, and a lot of work with Ikvm. but that aint going to happen anytime soon if ever.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] SixSixSevenSeven:
IKVM cannot load minecraft on x86, let alone ARM. It doesnt support any external library with native code in it (ie, LWJGL)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] filfat:
yes, thats why i suggested a wrapper (translate the OpenGL code to DirectX code for the Cpu, we have been using that a lot in school projects latly) and modifying of the source code to allow such a thing ;)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] domboy:
Sorry, I was joking. I've read all the queries about running Minecraft, both on this forum, and on Microsoft's own forum. Suffice to say, If someone does get Minecraft running on Windows RT they will be a rather popular person...

Also sorry for the off-topic bit...
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] piaqt:
Sounds good to me.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jimmielin:
I think it'd be good for anyone who actually wants to jailbreak the RT, so no problem :) Just put up a warning and disclaimer (although I think that the people who wouldn't understand the technical details and warnings wouldn't read the disclaimers anyway...)

Thanks for your hard work. Looking forward for the RT8.1 jailbreak :)

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] ausshir:
Perfectly acceptable, if not preferable, especially if it is a permanent change. In addition, it may make Microsoft less likely to patch the exploit if it requires a lot of user effort to run.

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jessenic:
Offtopic, but Minecraft works fine in IKVM on x86, it's just the launcher that fails on IKVM.

On the topic, I would be perfectly fine with doing some hacking with a bootdisk, I think the install.wim could possibly be left out too so it would not be so big.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] filfat:
It MOST cases it does not work, however I'm sure there is a launcher that work, what I meat was to get official Minecraft Including Launcher to run on RT, and before we can do that we need to get it to run on x86/x64

Well, lets get pack to topic now ;)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jessenic:
I'm 100% sure unmodified Minecraft without the launcher works with IKVM! I have confirmed this myself.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] kitor:
Well nobody cares about minecraft here. If you want jailbreak to be possible, just forget about it and go back on topić :(

its a shame, that there is no "revert back/ downgrade" option after the upgrade availabe at the asus website...some people need a working flash at the camera (led is not working anymore) and there are a bunch of disadvantages in 8.1...

and i tried the recovery image for the vivo posted here, but it didnt work for me...:-/

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] netham45:
Myria didn't make the 8.0 jailbreak tool, I did, based off of work from clrokr.

As far as responding to the thread, you could in theory release a WinPE image that uses nothing but signed code to boot into a recovery console and do the hack automagically (I imagine, at least. I have no idea what you're doing. It'd also make it so you'd have to make device-specific builds, but since there are only like 4 devices that'd be rather easy.)

As long as there's a simple how-to writeup & video most people shouldn't have any problem doing what you stated anyways.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Myriachan:
That is correct -- I was never involved in the 8.0 jailbreak. netham45 built upon a jailbreak made by clrokr, which was based on a admin-to-kernel privilege escalation exploit found by j00ru, a Google security researcher.

Here is how I think the installation will proceed when everything is done:

1. From normal Windows RT, you download and execute an .msi to install the jailbreak files to your system's "hard drive".

2. The installation program reminds you what to do from here as a reminder.

3. You reboot your device and ask it to boot into Recovery Mode with Command Prompt.

4. It will ask for your BitLocker key. This will require phoning home to Microsoft, most likely.

5. It'll ask which Windows account is yours, then you have to enter your password.

6. When the command prompt comes up, run C:\Program Files\Jailbreak\whatever. It'll do some 20 seconds of work.

7. Exit Command Prompt and your system will reboot back to normal mode.

Make it disable bitlocker protectors when it installs, then re-enable on the next boot?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] coldbloc:
That should add a few minutes to the turnaround time.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
for values of "a few minutes" equal to "a fraction of a second"?

(elevated command prompt required)

manage-bde -protectors -disable C:

That "suspends" BitLocker (writes a plain-text decryptor to the volume metadata, without actually decrypting the drive itself). It's similarly trivial re "resume" protection.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] coldbloc:
That's good to know.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff829849.aspx

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff829848.aspx

-disable

Disables protection, which will allow anyone to access encrypted data by making the encryption key available unsecured on drive. No key protectors are removed. Protection will be resumed the next time Windows is booted unless the optional -disable syntax and parameters are used to specify the reboot count.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] xsoliman3:
The disabled protector seems to get re-enabled on next boot in my experience on RT

Should remain off for a recovery boot, and while any jailbreak is done, but comes back on when the main OS boots, as part of RT's enforced protection
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] hisoft:
That enough. Look like we only suspend it until the jailbreak steps done.

There are rumors about Windows 8.2 will be released in Jan,2014. I cannot confirm whether it is true or not, but I suggest Myriachan hold her Jailbreak for a while in case this is true.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] cx1:
Basing release on a rumor. Sounds silly to me.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] LolitaPlus:
Today the rumor about consumer electronic becomes true for a hell of a lot of time
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] SixSixSevenSeven:
Great but the rumor isnt for an 8.2 release in january, its for work to begin on one in january, chances are that will culminate in preview in august and release in october as with 8.1.

8.2 will probably break the jailbreak the same way 8.1 broke the 8.0 jailbreak. Delaying release serves no purpose but to stop anyone ever having any fun with 8.1.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] LolitaPlus:
Checked the website again and realized they said "launch" instead of "release". Well you are right at this point, but the reason that 8.1 broke the 8.0 jailbreak is because we RELEASED the jailbreak first so Microsoft knew we can bypass the sign check in this specific way. If we don't release it, they have no idea about how we are going to do it and thus are unable to patch it.

Anyway, they are not psychics.

Oh one more thing. Once 8.2 is out, do you think you will ever have the chance to update your Windows 8 to 8.1?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] SixSixSevenSeven:
Then they will simply patch it out in 8.3. By your logic we should never ever release a jailbreak because the next update will patch it out again, almost sounds like your a secret microsoft ninja trying to forever prevent the jailbreak being released :P
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] LolitaPlus:
If 8.2 would be released next month is it wise to give out your jailbreak today and let them patch it? Or wait one month and then release it. You know the answer.
