[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snotick:
I've had my I9192 for about 2 months. I updated it right after receiving it, and rooted it using Kingo. Everything was working great until I received the software update. I installed the update a couple of days ago and lost root. I tried Kingo again, but I'm getting the Samsung Security (knox) message that it was blocking it. Even though I never installed Knox, it must be running in the background.

I've done some reading since on Kingo, Knox, and updating while rooting. I have now come to the realization that my warranty is probably void, my phone will no longer get official updates, and there is no Santa Claus.

In researching the problem, I found some reference to download mode. and the Knox Kernel lock. When I start my phone in download mode, this is what it shows:

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System Status: Custom

Knox Kernel Lock: 0x0 (I think this and the next one are good)

Knox Warranty Void: 0x0

CSB-Config-LSB: 0x30 (I don't know what this is)

Write Protection: Enabled

Can anyone confirm my assumptions? I just want to get back to my original state before updating a few days ago. Original FW with root capability. I'm ok with resetting the phone and reinstalling if necessary.

If I screwed the pooch on this one, then I guess it's time to go CFW route to get to root.

Thanks for any input.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnezo:
Once you got a fw with Knox you can't go back.

And yes, 0x0 is good but if you flash a kernel for root you will get 0x1..
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snotick:
Thanks for the input. Since, I am at 0x0, will I still get fw updates?

As I mentioned, I thought you had to be a 0x1 to be excluded from official updates. Or does the fact the System Status is now Custom, exclude me from those updates?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeoDum:
Yes. As your System Status is now set to Custom then you can not receive official updates by OTA.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snotick:
Thanks.

I'm still reading conflicting reports about how Samsung is handling all of this. You say I won't receive official updates OTA. Will I be able to side load them via Kies?

I'm also confused about the Knox security. It seems like it is more for people that want to use their phones for work. I don't, and am 99% certain that I never will. Should I even care what my Knox count is?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilviuMik:
In some countries Knox warranty 0x1 = Void warranty :) So yes sometimes u should care about Knox :P

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snotick:
Sorry, I should have mentioned that I am in the U.S.

At this point, I would trade my warranty for a rooted phone running stock fw going forward. As it stands now, I can't root (at least not the with one click) and I won't be updating fw going forward. Seems like a double whammy.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer.rox:
Hi man many Questions but i think i can help you.

If made nearly the same like you the only differnce i flash the new upadte by my self via Odin.

So lets start step by Step:

1. You can go back to your old Firmeware with root is possible as befor! For that you must search your Firmeware via I-net and flash them via Odin like me. No changes on the Knox flag

2. That Custom stat: Yes you will be able to get OTA by me it Works. You can emulated the Offical state via Wanam Xposed and it will show you too as Offical in the Download mod.

3. Warranty is still in place

Look at my Post on a other Thread: littel Guide from me

There i explain what you must do to get back to your older Firmeware

Happy new Year for you all

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MigueelAngeel_:
Hi, I want to install CM11 (I know it's still nightly but anyway I want to) but I would like to have some touchwiz apps like S Memo, Music Player, Video Player, and maybe the keyboard and the launcher from 4.3 MK6; because I like those apps. Is there any port of some of these apps for CM 11? Would I be able to install at least some of these apps in CM11 :confused:? and if there's a way to install them, how can I do it? Thank you for reading this.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
no they all need touchwiz framework, which isn't there in cm11

but for all of them there are better alternatives:

music player: google music, poweramp

video player: mx player (can play everything)

keyboard: stock cm11/google keyboard, swipe or swiftkey

s memo: ok there I don't know, but I am sure there is one :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MigueelAngeel_:
Hahaha ok. Isn't there any themed Note 3 or s4 launcher or something?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
sorry but these apps rely on touchwiz framework and it is very diffcult to port them to a no samsung rom.

but there are so many launcher alternatives. for example nova launcher. or I am using next launcher.

just as a suggestion: maybe a modded sammy rom would be more suitable for you?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MigueelAngeel_:
Yeah maybe, i'll look for one soon.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reekotubbs:
Take a look at this cm11 ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2558258 it has s4 apps baked in. Pm the Dev to ask about ported apps.

What is a good way to remove the super user app without root or USB function(hardware issue). I have to send my phone back in a couple days to get a new one and need to get rid of custom lock at the startup. I have the att i337. The only way USB works is in download mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
You can use triangle away to get rid of the custom status and then use a root Explorer to delete the busybox files after that use SuperSu 's built in uproot to finish up. You might want to delete the busybox before triangle away.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jkinsel2006:
The script files are not installed so I do not have root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
Sorry, misread your post.

You have to have root to remove the custom status.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jkinsel2006:
Is there a way to root without USB ability on device? It will only connect to pc in download mode. All other USB options won't work because of hardware issue. I just need to find a way to root without usb. I do have a sd card and reader.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
It's not a hardware issue. If it is connecting through download mode, it is either a driver issue, a port issue on your computer or the software on your phone is borked and you can ODIN it to fix it. This is not a hardware issue on the phone at all.
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
Ok so, I decided the custom rom thing I was doing was getting boring so I wanted to get back to my stock rom. Y'know, htc one x, 4.2.2 Sense 5 that all cool stuff.

I got instructions and I tried my best in the following order.

Getting fastboot

putting boot and recovery in fastboot

flashing them and erasing cashe

relocking bootloader and erasing cashe

booting to fastboot mode again

starting RUU exe

now the RUU exe had a problem. I did a fastboot getvar cid to find i needed the following: CID HTC__J15

from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1975140

now that thread linked me to a .rar file that didn't have an exe file in it so i was super confused.

So i googled and i found this file:

RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_ARA_1.29.415.11_Radio_1.1204.105.14_release_260742_signed.exe

(^I lost the link lol, but thats the file name)

which matched what i needed. I think.

When i ran that, it said I had the wrong RUU for that device. Do i? I'm not really sure. Can someone link me to the right one?

Problem is also that I can't get past the bootloader screen now. Turning it off and on just brings me back to the bootloader.

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Only way to go back to stock rom is a nandroid backup. Ruu does not exist with that number.

I am hosting one here

Nandroid backup HTC__J15 - 4.20.415.rar - 614.05 MB

Flash the recovery.img AND the boot.img from the nandroid backup. Then mount the sdcard in the recovery and unpack the .rar file to the designated path.

Probably clockworkmod\backup\time and date folder\nand backup files in img and tar files etc etc

Then make a full wipe in the recovery (wipe ALL you can EXCEPT the sdcard)

Then restore the nand.
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
ok i did that and:

\Fastboot>fastboot flash boot boot.img

sending 'boot' (8192 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.030s]

writing 'boot'...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

finished. total time: 1.240s

\Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

sending 'recovery' (8192 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.118s]

writing 'recovery'...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

finished. total time: 1.325s

It won't let me go into recovery. Just comes back to bootloader. I can't mount the nandroid backup into the device
[HTC One X] Thant:
Are you UNLOCK your bootloader via htcdev.com?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yeah it's locked or relocked
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
In the first step I said I relocked my bootloader cause it was a step I read in a tutorial to go back to stock. It says ***RELOCKED*** on top.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Unlock it.......
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
ok this is really annoying. my phone cant complete unlocking the bootloader cause its battery is too low. i put it on charge for 2 hours and its still low cause i cant turn the screen off or turn the phone off. When i turn the phone off without the charger, it stays off, but as soon as i put it in, it turns on. Ughhh
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Use the batt script in fastboot mode to charge the battery

https://www.dropbox.com/s/aaah8gqz8j024xz/Batt script.bat

Phone in fastboot mode, script in fastboot folder and execute it with admin rights !
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
Got it charged and fixed! Restoring now!
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
.-. nvm it got stuck when when i chose recovery in bootloader
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Got stuck how ?
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
when i go into recovery (i tried with rom manager too) it stops at the HTC screen
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Fastboot flash the recovery.img from the nand backup. Also do :

Fastboot erase cache

After the recovery.img flash !

P.s. ditch rommanager ....it's useless on the hox !
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
Ok tried restoring and it said MD5 was a mismatch.

[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
oh i see, my bad.

ok, i did that, fixed the md5 and restored the recovery. now when i boot it, after the htc screen, it blinks and goes directly to the recovery page.

edit: it doesnt fully restore. Does aboue 568/953 and says could not restore /system
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Make a full wipe before restore. Format system, data and cache......can't write to a system part that's already full....
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
did that. same thing happened. now it went up to 643/953mb before failing
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Are you using the recovery from the nand now ?

Full wipe means

Factory reset

Wipe cache partition

Advanced - wipe dalvik cache

Mounts and storage - format system, data and cache

Then restore......
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
yes i did all that including formatting system, data and cashe

heres a sum up of what i did:

fasboot flash boot and fastboot flash recovery both from nandroid folder

factory reset, wiped cashe, wiped dalvik cashe, format data, cashe and system in this exact order

restored nandroid

it runs,then says 'could not restore system. . .' before restoring the whole thing

I went back to make sure to format the system again and restore but there was no difference.
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
ok if anyone by chance had the same problem, I fixed it by installed a stock ROM like this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23993171

[HTC Tornado] smb_gaiden:
Hello Everyone,

I have a T-Mobile USA SDA and had a problem with emails on the device.

Not sure if it is working as designed or if there was a blug, so I thought I would float it by you guys.

Setup:

Mail client on T-Mobile USA SDA

Configured manually to check pop and send smtp with my gmail account. It is set such that the message headers are downloaded first.

I connect WIFI and send/recieve

I receive a header I had sent myself for testing

I click on it and select to download the message body.

I go back to the inbox.

I do send and receive.

I receive the message body.

I read it.

I go back to the inbox.

I do send and recieve.

Result:

The message is removed without a trace. it is not put into deleted items folder, nor does it remain in the inbox folder.

Is this expected behavior? I am not allowed to store mail on my device? Is there a registry setting to change this behavior? There is no options within the application. Is there a registry setting to change wheremails are stored in general? thanks for seeing the barrage of questions!
[HTC Tornado] devilxelloss:
Yes I got the same result with you. Mine is a Dopod 577w (Tornado in Taiwan). This behaviour also happens to other mail servers.
[HTC Tornado] smb_gaiden:
ni hao,

I had searched a bit about it and found some places explain it. The explanation sounds weak, but it looks like something we will have to live with until either gmail or ms changes their server or client software.

USENET:

Sat, Mar 4 2006 7:24 am

The problem is with the default behaviour of Gmail - it will "hide" all the

already-downloaded mail. Unfortunately, it seems not even now that the beta

phase is long over can you effectively override this behaviour - the POP3

radio buttons just don't stick in the Settings window.

Therefore, the best solution IMHO is switching to an alternative e-mail

client that doesn't remove the messages that are not available online any

more from the local view. The alternative mailer clients FlexMail and Qmail

are like so - see the row "Does it only display mail that is still on the

server? " in the comparison chart of my mailer client roundup at

http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=569&more=1 . Of the two,

FlexMail offers scheduling capabilities.

PocketPC MAG:

Does it only display mail that is still on the server? : one of the most-criticized problems with Messaging is that it does not show older messages (messages that have been deleted in the meantime) in the Inbox unless you explicitly (mass-)move them to a separate folder. As can be seen, it's, in addition to Messaging, only nPOPw that deletes the messages from the local view that don't exist on the server any more. The other mailer applications don't.

I might just write a pop/smtp client software myself. Much easier to tweak it to do what I need it to do, and in my previous job I worked for an email client so I know those protocols well. I probably won't add advanced functionality or IMAP/Exchange, because I have no individual use for those.
[HTC Tornado] devilxelloss:
Very Useful info. :)

My current solution to this issue is Outlook & ActiveSync. Just download your mail to PC and sync. Mail in mobile Outlook account will not disappear unless you delete them.

By the way, I think Gmail mobile website is also okay for mail browsing & composing.

(it is not a good experience posting reply here using Pocket IE) :)

I'd like to write a mail client using .NET CF just for fun if I have time. I'm not a C++ guy.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
If this is so you can drag and drop files (Music, Pictures etc) between your PC and mobile just install Kies this will install the correct drivers then just connect your phone, let the drivers install then whenever you connect the phone to the PC the Auto Play option will appear on your PC just click the folder.

You don't need to use Kies it just ensures you get the latest correct drivers, you can google the drivers and install separately if you want.

i just dropped my HOXL accidently and my battery housing the entire body actually has cracked. even the silver thing surrounding the camera just dropped managed to paste it by an adhesive.

i thought the build quality would be strong enough to resist a 2 feet drop!

the screen is intact the cell works well.

i wanted to ask the average cost of a replacement,also will the one meant for international version fit in?

besides does anyone know any company that ships it to INDIA..

also if anyone has a damaged HOXl lying around which has its body in a good condition and can spare it please let me know!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
That sounds reasonable to me, the shipping is a bit expensive but that's not unheard of when shipping internationally. I'm not really sure what you want someone here to say, all the pricing information is online to be found.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Sonone:
agreed its very reasonable the amount, but the shipping makes it somewhat expensive..

the replacement price + fitting charges is kinda similar to the exchange price i get for this phone (again in India)

besides idk the quality they are offering.

all i want is does anyone know any provider in India?

since One X(endeavor) and X+ are of different dimensions and Evita is rare here.

also many people who have water damaged cells etc usually sell the parts if so i can it get it down to some decent price,maybe that can help.

or any other alternative to my problem!

I really appreciate you get my point 50$ is about 3k Rupees and its kinda a huge amount for shipping.

Thanks for your advice man..

Here if you have an Evita service center staff wont even accept the phone besides its a known fact that the ONE x and ONE x+ don't fit Evita.:(

the phone functions well the cracks are at two places one near the front camera and the other one just above the rear camera in the middle may be I am being very fussy about it!:p
