[HTC Sensation] superiska123:
My opinion

It depends on what you want, really. Sense 5 is a lot faster, but not everything is working. Sense 4+, on the other hand is more stable, and, in my opinion feels more like "Sense". You have themes, fast burst, etc. Also, I preffer the way Sense 4+ works, its much more what I liked about HTC in the first place.

Thats just how I see it, not everybody has to agree with me :p.
[HTC Sensation] benjasmins18:
I think almost the same but for me sense 5 its very very very slower man... not ready to update...

but my preference is sense 3.6 its the most stable android for me... but if i need choose ill choose sense 4+

as man up says feels more like sense
[HTC Sensation] ShadowCodeGaming:
I agree with you on Sense 3.6 being the preffered one. I just feel like Sense went away from the original idea too much with 4.x and 5.x.
[HTC Sensation] superiska123:
Completely agree with you. When I first considered buying an HTC, it was because of sense. And the ones I like most would probably be sense 2.x and sense 3.0. That was the ui that really made me buy sensation instead of something else. I was a bit dissapointed with sense 3.6, but it was still pretty much what I wanted sense to be. Sense 4 and 5 just don't "feel HTC" to me. But I would always choose sense 4 rather than 5, I'm just too lazy to revert back to it :D.

Now just a tiny bit off topic, does anyone know where to find the most recent sense 3.0 RUU? So not 3.6, but 3.0.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] DxGames:
I'm using sense 4+ because its more stable than sense 5 but sense 5 is faster, smoother and when everything works perfectly ill flash it again.

Hello !

Many a times it happens that we get "Status 7 Error" in Recovery while trying to Flash a Rom or sometimes it may happen that Rom is working fine for everyone but when we try to install the same Rom it gets stuck at Boot or some components don't work as they should .

What to do in such cases ???

[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
EDIT:

Go here to root your Tegra Note 7: https://github.com/linux-shield/shield-root/blob/master/README.md (thanks to CampGareth for finding the link).

I have tested this, it works with no bloatware, only installs SuperSu.

---------

Hey guys, I got my new Tegra Note 7 last night and I've been trying to get it rooted, but I keep running into trouble.

First of all, I DO NOT want to use some shady Chinese software that installs a bunch of bloat on both my tablet and PC just to get SuperSu going, I've tried that method and had to reset the tablet to get rid of all the crap it installs (and it didn't even seem to root anyway).

Now I'm trying the manual method from here: http://pan.baidu.com/wap/link?uk=3073396937&shareid=3129426036&third=0

Which, again, is Chinese but at least I can see what it's doing since I'm issuing ADB commands, and supposedly it has worked for others on this forum.

Now, I get to step 3 on the included PDF which says to boot an insecure bootloader image with "fastboot boot tegranote_insecure_boot.img", I do this and the tablet screen flashes a few times and reboots to android.

I get to the next step which says to open an adb shell, and do "/sbin/rootsh +p" to get a temp root shell, and this is where I get stuck. Instead of getting a root shell I get the message "/system/bin/sh: /sbin/rootsh: not found". Does anyone have suggestions?

By the way we really need a Tegra Note 7 subforum here at XDA, if the mods could add it that would be great. :)
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] shimp208:
I would recommend the following procedure:

1. Download the root_tool_v2.zip attached to this post

2. Unzip the contents the root_tool_v2.zip to a directory

3. Run the following commands from your ADB and Fastboot directory:

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot tegranote_insecure_v2.img

4. Once your device finishes booting the insecure boot.img (Your device's screen will blink several times and then boot into Android) run the following commands:

adb shell
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
exit
adb push su /system/xbin/su
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
adb shell
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
chmod 644 /system/app/Superuser.apk
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
exit
adb reboot

5. You should now have Superuser installed and have root access.

What I did was I modified the boot.img provided to be insecure and use an insecure adbd binary to allow a root shell when booted from which can then be used to setup Superuser and su binary access. Let me know how this goes for you and if you have any questions :).
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
Wow, thanks for the help! Unfortunately your attachment seems to be corrupt, I can't decompress the archive. I'm using 7-zip btw. The forum says your attachment is 7.19MB but when downloaded it's only 160KB. :(

If you can re-upload it I will give it a go.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dergezero:
a reup of the file would be much appreciated! :good:

PS

i have a batch file to expedite the process.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] shimp208:
Re-uploaded the file for you guys let me know how it goes for you :).
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
Awesome your new package downloaded fine.

However I'm still not getting root, I got to step 4 and when I open an adb shell I don't have permissions to do the next command.

The exact error message:

shell@android:/ mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system

mount: Operation not permitted

So I guess the insecure boot image didn't work right. I should mention that I am using the latest Tegra Note firmware, I don't know if that makes a difference though. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help so far.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dergezero:
do you guys have a copy of the drivers for the tablet? mine only seems to work for storage.

update: got drivers working.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
I used Universal Naked Driver 0.73, I just manually installed the driver for the Nvidia Shield, thinking it would work, and it does!

Does shimp208's root image work for you, dergezero?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dergezero:
no, it just reboots. neither is working. im going to see if any one can give us a dump of their img that already works to be rooted. i tried that Chinese method and its really annoying and i dont get root on any computer i try it on.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] shimp208:
Hey guys I am in the process of creating a new boot image that uses a different method for gaining root access and will upload that once I finish it.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
:good: Awesome man, good luck! Eager to try it when you post it! :fingers-crossed:
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] tsbrewers:
I agree, with the amount of malware that is in the chinese root tools, it makes me nervous to use the one the OP posted.

[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
I wonder if someone would be able to port Clockworkmod Recovery to the TN7 eventually. The bootloader on this device is factory unlocked so it should be simple enough. Unfortunately I'm not a good enough programmer to get this done. :p

If we had Clockworkmod then rooting would be as easy as flashing the SuperSU .zip from the SD.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] shimp208:
I have updated my original post with the rooting instructions to include a new insecure boot method follow the same instructions as before just use the new boot.img I uploaded to that post. Credit to teknoraver for the insecure adbd binary.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
I tried your V2 image, still getting permission errors when doing "mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system", what am I doing wrong? :confused:
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] shimp208:
When you boot the image and then type ADB shell do you get a root shell (root@device:/ #) or just a regular shell (shell@device:/ $)?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Ksehwail:
Amazing

Nice to see you working on a different method of root... I am sorry to those who feel that the method I posted is getting negative reviews just wanted to throw something out there for people... however, I do feel much better with Shrimp208 working on a better root method I really wish we could get a forum going..
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Toyeboy:
I used the Chinese root tool and all seems fine on my Tegra note
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dark42:
Just a regular shell with $. Doesn't look like I get temp root permissions after running the tegranote_insecure_v2.img.

If it matters, I'm on the latest Stock ROM (4.2.2/JDQ39.13155_268.1942) and I'm using Universal Naked Driver 0.73 for the Shield, which works with this device. Maybe I need to use a different driver?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] dergezero:
yeah it works but you dont really know what was installed on ur phone or on your pc. 3 apps are installed on your phone and a few reg changes on ur pc can be detrimental. and its all bloatware

I Have the same problem

My sad story is…..

I purchased MDA Compact II a month ago. I changed its ROM with JAMin’s ROM (after unlocking with LOKIWIZ). The device was OK but camera was not working, so I updated it again with K JAM’s ROM process started 10% to100% as usual & massage appeared congratulation your device is updated successfully. The process was also running on my device as usual. But after that my device (I mean MDA Compact II) refused to start normally it just blinks LED & so LCD. (It is dead now) The PC doesn’t detect it no boot loader is available to update it with its original ROM that I got now. So if you find any thing plz help me & if I get any thing I promise I'll inform you my email adres is azhar63@hotmail.com plz mail me to have your email adress to comunicate

if you say you can get into the bootloader with the AC cable then you should beable to download a SD card image on to the phone.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] jeeb75:
When plugged in it is not bootloader. Same thing happened to me and i tried the sd image rom. The screen looks like the bootloader but it is not. There are 3 colors and no mention of serial 1.x or whatever it is. I am going to send my unit in 4 repair. Look in the prophet forums there are 2 threads. One is titled upgraded prophet with wizard rom and the other thread is Can anyone help fix my brick. If anyone knows a fix it would be great but I think it has to be repaired by disributor.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velein:
Hey guys

I am currently running with the new bootloader, with the quite famous knox 0x1. I was wondering whether it is possible to downgrade to the previous bootloader, and in that way get rid of the "kernel is not seandroid enforcing" and "Set warranty bit" errors.

I am still a little new with kernels and I don't wont to do anything before I have the right amount of knowledge.

Thanks in advance

Okay - thanks for the answer.

One more question: Like i said i am still a newbie (I just install the ROM, and enjoy it!) So what do you mean when you say "flashing modems when you change roms"

I don't know what "baseband" and "modems" are. hehe, sorry if I am to big a newbie.

First off, I'm running a VZW Droid Razr Maxx HD (XT926), CM11 JB/KK 4.4.2 nightly build updates by epinter, rooted with an unlocked bootloader.....

I was trying to save a picture from my browser (Dolphin) to my SD Card and received an "insufficient permissions" notification. I can't even change my default download folder in the browser settings. Gives me the same error. Developer options are enabled. I tried changing the R/W permissions of my SD Card, but that was not successful either.

Question: Anyone know how to fix this? I'm sure it's probably something I'm overlooking and it may have already been addressed on XDA, somewhere, but I can't find it in a search.

Mag charger

I remember reading a warning of sorts somewhere (Maybe here on XDA) about the waterproofing integrity on these doors being compromised rather quickly from the normal daily opening and closing for charging, dust, etc. The article/post went on to describe how much better it would be to charge with the magnetic port...Faster charging, less wear and tear on the micro usb port and seals on the door etc. I was sold on that bit of info and even before I got my ZU I bought a few of those mag charging cables on ebay. Now I only need to open my micro USB door cover for OTG or MHL access, which honestly, I haven't needed to yet.
