Worked once, now no more. I had to re-flash using heimdall, successfully recovered but now can't re-root my phone. Originally had safestrap running like a charm and cant get back to it now.

adb shell confirmed, phone reboots but looks like saferoot is trying to remove temporary files when the phone is rebooting.... see below

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks - cpiercew

I'm assuming the files copied to the tmp directory because of the adb output, but have you checked?

Edit: derp, you said adb shell confirmed.

From reading the install script your phones state shouldn't change before the device is first not recognized (it should still be on and responding to adb commands). So if you can successfully start an adb shell there is no reason the script shouldn't work. Maybe try running the commands manually?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cpiercew:
I included the adb shell output, I verified it could connect to the device first. Prior to installing ADB I first installed Kies and drivers, then put adb in my path to ensure it would run properly.

I haven't check the tmp directory, I will but not sure if this would matter as it seems something else is going on. I have a total of three errors that seem to be happening:

1) Removing temporary files

error: device not found

2) When the phone reboots I unlock it immediately but dont get prompted to allow ADB shell to run

I also get the "all finished" prompt before the phone is finished booting up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cpiercew:
Good idea, I didn't know that was an option, is there a list of commands I can find somewhere?

- just realized looking in install.sh shows the source. However, still noob'd and don't know how to translate some of the basic shell scripting
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
Edit: i was assuming that was a linux error, not an error in adb shell. It seems the files did not properly copy. Did you check if they are in the tmp folder?

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

[/COLOR]If you give me a minute I can post the commands without the unnecessary scripting that should allow for manual installation.

Edit: don't know why I assumed mac, thought I read it in your post. What are you running?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cpiercew:
Correct, using a mac
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
The following are the individual commands. Should let you know exactly when your problems are starting if you enter them manually. I believe the repeated system/xbin/su command is repeated incase the device isn't responding/rebooted yet. So you may only need to enter it once. Sorry the .sh worked for me so I didn't do it this way. Hopefully this sheds more light on your problem.

Remember to run these from the folder that contains the "file" folder.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
Thanks for clearing that up. As I said I did not root by manually issuing the commands.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cpiercew:
Ok, I resolved the issue after going with my hunch the stock verizon GS4 VRUEMK2 build from Surge1223 I had previously recovered from may have been the issue.

I went back into Kies backed up apps, settings and performed a firmware recovery to MK2. Once rebooted and reconfigured - it worked as designed.

For what it's worth, the build I would suggest avoiding if you want to use saferoot or root your phone at all is what I found from Surge1223 on androidforum: SCH-I545_VZW_1_20131212083410_mwx72ql56g_fac.zip

Not a dig on Surge1223, as with anything I use all downloads at my own risk.

Thanks again for the responses, any info I can provide from this that will help anyone else trying to use Saferoot please let me know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
FWIW, I don't have an androidforums account. Also, my upload is fine, otherwise it wouldn't flash in Odin. Next time come tell me or comment in my thread about the issues your having with my upload.

Yeah that's just strange because I dun get as much phantom click on all my previous phones. In fact, I don't even remembered having any such issues until I started using Sony phone. :confused:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] TimeTurn:
Got some strange behaviour like this with the voice dial. Try disabling it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
That's because Sony turned the sensitivity to MAX. Alright, maybe not, but they turned it up. You can adjust it yourself by using a file explorer.

[Q] Help on installing "Samsung Apps" app on 4G Note 2 with CyanogenMod installed.

Hi,

I've got a GT-N7105T (Australian Telstra 4G version) of the Note 2.

I've also picked up a second hand Galaxy Gear. The Note 2 is on 4.1.2 and was due to be updated to 4.3 (to get the full functionality of the watch) yesterday but the rollout has been delayed.

I installed CyanogenMod via the installer they supplied which looks great and the phone info shows it's now 4.3.1 (and the model is now GT-N7105 without the T).

I've managed to install Samsung's Gear Manager but it tries to update and is looking for the "Samsung Apps" app.

I've tried to install the apk but it refuses to install.

Does anyone have any advice please on installing the Samsung Apps apk?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sora9009:
my advice is just wait for official 4.3.

nobody flash cyanogenmod and then use samsung apps mate.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] niizata:
My apologies if this has been asked before, and if it has I would love to be pointed in the right direction. But just curious, do I need S-off to flash a custom rom after root, or even have s-off to root to begin with?

Thank you for your replies, in advance.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] HypostaticOnion:
Well, currently as it stands, there's only one root method for this phone, and it involves s-off. So essentially, yes.

If I've helped, please hit the thanks button
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] niizata:
I am currently on 4.2.2, is that currently rootable? or am i stuck? (sorry for the noob questions)

You should be completely fine. Go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2473644 and you'll be able to get soff with rum runner when u download the specific app use the version with .15 at the end and follow the instructions. Let me know if that worked I am on 4.3 android so I am stuck just do not accept the OTA update.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] BladeRunner:
If you unlock/s-off prior to the 4.3 update you can take the update after and still get root
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] niiza:
Ah, thank you all for your help, it is much appreciated. (Sorry for the change in account (I was able to recover my older account.)

I know AOSP code Easter Eggs are nothing new, but I don't think anyone has noticed these before. In the com.android.systemui package I noticed Gefingerpoken and Somnambulator classes. The former is commented with ACHTUNG! (German for Attention) and doesn't appear to have much function, likely a Blinkenlights reference. The latter actually seems to used by the Sandman class, although I am not sure about the need to move those 30 or so lines to another class and package.

Anyway, happy holidays everyone! Thought I'd point out these amusing little Easter Eggs.

Hey guys, I've tried searching for my problem but I can't seem to find it on here.

I'm running the latest CM11 nightlies on my M7ATT. I want to flash a GPE rom. I'm using the latest TWRP.

Here's what happens.

I've tried about 4 different 4.4.2 GPE roms and the same thing happens to all of them. The flash is successful. Reboots to the inital startup screen. About 4 seconds go by then the phone reboots. ad infinitum.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance guys, I really appreciate it. :)

SGH-S959G Users

Since the the SGH-S959G uses a different partition for its recovery, flashing my kernel will not change the recovery. So to remedy this [MENTION=4934593]mr-cook[/MENTION] has created a flashable zip that flashes TWRP 2.6.3.0 onto your device. This zip can be downloaded here:

TWRP 2.6.3.0

You can just flash this after flashing my kernel.

Useful Tips and Apps

Those out there that have contributed better ways to do things will have their ideas posted here so everyone can benefit from their knowledge.

First tip is brought to us by [MENTION=5093014]razen_kain[/MENTION] : There's an app called Online Nandroid Backup. It makes a backup without booting into recovery and you can specify the recovery you're using and which partitions you want to backup. Even better you can name your backups which I find VERY helpful when jumping between ROMs.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I am working on some merge issues and should be able to build tomorrow. I have to fly out to Alabama though so it wont be til the evening. Soon I will have the kernel ironed out for the i777. Till then consider these build as beta. They wont brick your phone but MAY have minor issues. But just because they may doesn't mean they will have problems. For my rom I was going to replace the stock kernel with the custom built one but I think I will leave the stock one and have the kernel in OP#2. I know some ppl like to have to rock stability the stock kernel has but others want the bleeding edge. I am here to say that I can make both happy.

Kind Regards,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bondlolo:
Something i noticed is that recovery says (in twrp Omni) that my phone is a i9100 so it dont let me install nightlies...maybe you have to change the recovery to a i777 recovery?

Thanks for your awesome work anyway!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] csfile:
Can you check your build.prop?

ro.product.device (or ro.build.product) should be "i777" or "SGH-I777"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
[MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION],

Perhaps semantics, but it may be worth noting (in the OP by the Omnirom build) that the recovery is TWRP? I admit, I assumed that it was CWM until seeing one of the recent posts.

I plan to link to it in the OMNI OP if that's alright with you. This provides an easier/faster route to a compatible recovery.

massive cheers, and thank you for this.

-Cyril

================================================================================

EDIT: the filename "RenderOMNI-kernel-12-23-CWM.zip" suggests CWM, but flashing the zip definitely gives TWRP, and my kernel version reads: zachariah@linux-box #8 <<that's you, correct?

This kernel makes the device noticeably snappier. :beer:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:
Well my phone is definitely snappier. There's only one little bug I've noticed. If i select to disable backlight illumination from settings/buttons menu they will turn off for a minute but will come back on and stay on until i go back in the menu and turn them on then off again. For now i just have them set for one second and that seems to be working fine. This is on the cm11 version

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:

You could use Tasker to turn wifi off and on when you send the message.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] poolman756:
What about to receive a message?

You may be able to set a context for that as well. Tasker is extremely powerful. I'm just not sure as I haven't tried to set contexts for that kind of trigger.

Hi, this is my first time rooting and installing a custom rom onto my phone and I just wanted make sure I didn't forget anything of do anything stupid...

Alright so I have a SG3, the Videotron Variant on 4.3 stock rom

I downloaded the drivers for my phone, am using the USB cable, and have installed Odin on my computer.

I followed this post : http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1771687

and I downloaded the "Videotron image"

my following steps would be to

"Extract the root66 tar file from the .7z file you downloaded.

Put phone into download mode [ with phone off, hold vol. down + home + power ], connect to computer and open Odin.

once in odin click the PDA field and select the root66 tar you downloaded.

Leave Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checked.

click start and

when done let phone reboot."

and third of all, i'd install ClockworkMod recovery then grab Rom Manager from the Play store and in the menu select to install ClockworkMod Recovery and then install a custom rom from there

Am I missing any steps? For example I was reading about the OTA update section and I didn't understand anything...

Thank you!

I think ITLZr is the same as iTLZero in HKCU\Control Panel\International\ PC windows registry.

So, it's 1 for leading zero in time string ("06:17 PM") or 0 otherwise ("6:17 PM").
