[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Are you running a custom recovery or stock?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlonMoradov:
stock I think..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You cannot use stock recovery to flash a custom ROM.

You'll need to install a custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM.

I suggest you unlock the bootloader, flash the TWRP or CWM, and then flash a custom rom.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlonMoradov:
sorry I have a custom recovery.. what can I do?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Are you running TWRP or CWM? Are you running the latest version?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlonMoradov:
CWM not the latest version.. I dont how to update when im stuck in recovery mode
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Download the latest TWRP or CWM img file. Put the phone in fastboot mode, connect it to your computer, make sure the drivers are properly installted, and type fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoftTouch23:
Hello,

I'd like to know if there is a way to root this tablet device (Prestigio Multipad 5580C Duo/Prestigio Pro Duo 8.0). I've searched on this forum for quite awhile, but unfortunately I didn't find any tutorial which was able to help me.

So, If you do know how to root this tablet, please say how and do it as much noob-friendly as possible

Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Christopher4tw:
Got a notification today telling me my device health was good, and I had to check performance and this popped up:

I rooted 2 days ago and stayed stock. Anyone know how they know this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] masondoctorjt:
When your phone is rooted, it knows, and so do the apps. That's why you cannot install isis wallet if your phone is rooted. In the about section in settings, it says if the device is rooted. If it says modified then it is rooted and any app can probably see that. Doesn't mean that tmobile knows it is, but the app does, and it may, or may not report this back to them.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Christopher4tw:
Thanks for the info. I didn't think just any app could tell, only root apps. Well I guess this is no big deal at all.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RoxAbout:
Re: Update

T-mobile only recently updated the "my Account" app. Giving them selfs access to all kinds of stuff on your phone. This also detects the tethering mod :/

Best thing to do is uninstall the update...

Very crappy thing of them to do, But I guess they have to be like the nsa.:(
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
That's because you guys have the option to collect diagnostics enabled.. Mine is disabled and it shows unknown for everything
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Christopher4tw:
I had no clue mine was on, but it is definitely disabled now. About to flash CM11 actually. Wish me luck!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sanadrate:
You simply don't need luck,if.your doing everything textbook style.should have no issues. I stay away from CM BUT GL

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ndwgs:
Lololol, I'm starting to see more of the trends of this word "NSA" when it comes to security.

I'd uninstall, just like what she says.

Yep, I stay away from CM too. Especially they went for profit :Boycotting:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Christopher4tw:
You're right, I didn't need luck, it was a really easy install and it has no real bugs that I am seeing. Running super smooth.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Actually, you granted them access by accepting the permissions. :P Thats why i read that stuff. And being a developer, i can usually figure out what actions fall under the required permissions too.

What do you mean CM went for profit?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daxecutioner24:
They went commercial, now are a official corporation. They are looking to make that money, eventually. With features like a CM account, privacy guard, secure messaging they were getting ready for it. None of those are attractive though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
But its still free to install CM and have the source code available though. Right? Im not a huge user of CM since i have an S4 ( I like my features )
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] WhoWhere:
Your assumption is correct. For now at least.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sanadrate:
I bet cm will soon require a small purchase fee,upon flashing you must enter a code,for each device.

~SanaDrate + LTE
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mondokat:
it seems more likely the purchase fees will be for the added features. Allcast is the perfect example. It's a CM app on the app store that has a time limit unless you pay money. That's their future. I can easily imagine a CM rom that is basically AOSP, and a collection of appstore apps that you have to pay money for to get the "Full CM experience". Of course, if you buy a CM phone (like the oppo n1), you'd get all those for free.

Yes, the carriers are trying to gather more and more information about us.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] thasatelliteguy:
yep

And so far as I can see, it's another very good reason to root and flash a new ROM. I kinda like CM because it is different. That sux about CM going for profit, but hey, their **** has always been extremely stable for my uses, and they gotta eat too so.... As long as it's reasonable (unlike $200 - $350 for Winblows), I'll pay the small price so I can stop Peter from spying on me by giving my keys to Paul.... lmao
[HTC Desire S] InV15iblefrog:
Hi guys

Desire S.

Unrooted, no custom recovery, basically everything default.

HBoot 2.00.0002

.

To root, i need the 0.98 version.

Using HTCdev.com, i tried to unlock, but at step 5, where i should type fastboot oem get_identifier_token, the phone doesnt come up at all, and cmd just continues to wait for device.

Before you ask, I HAVE (i hope) followed all steps.

This includes updating drivers manually, using htc sync (latest and older versions), swapping usb port and cable, reunzipping adb and fastboot material from other sources, and reading for a decent number of hours throughout xda and other external forums and guides.

But there is still no success.

Anyone help please? I don't just want fast, "get it working for me" type answers, but actually want to know why it refuses to greet me!

Cheers

BTW, i'm on a windows 8.1 laptop, and have updated the relevant drivers, still to no avail.
[HTC Desire S] JJeamy:
your phone must be in FASTBOOT bootloader mode..not in the HOME of your ROM..

if you don't wan to turn off your phone first and pressing volume down + power to go to bootloader..then you can using a adb command on cmd while your phone is still in the HOME of your ROM.. type "adb reboot bootloader" then select "FASTBOOT" now you can type "fastboot oem get_identifier_token"

don't forget to disabled Fast boot mode and enable USB Debuging first from the system settings and just connect your phone to pc as charge mode..

hope this help..
[HTC Desire S] InV15iblefrog:
Sorry mate. Tried that before your post though.

However the person for whom I was doing this no longer needs it doing, and plans for a newer device, so I no longer have this device available. Thus, i thanked you, since it was a cue for me to mention that.

Cheers. :)

Here ya go, I'll pimp my own thread hahah. I did a few reviews for ridiculously cheap/good deal ebay cases (all have a bunch of pictures). This is if you're into hardcases anyway. If you want softer cases (TPU/Rubber/Gel) meant for drop protection then these ones probably aren't up your alley. They will all work with screen protectors though.

Out of all of them, I recommend the Quicksand cases!!. They've sold so well though that the price has since increased to $1.99 with free shipping.

Hi, there :)

I just wanted to remind, before telling you the problem, that I have a Galaxy Note (N7000), that I am new to XDA and not so good at using Odin...

Anyway, I was trying to install the OmniRom 4.4 for N7000, and I followed I guide that told me to install an OmniRom kernel. After having flashed it and installed the official OmniRom 4.4, I wiped data, cache and Dalvik Cache... I rebooted has I was told too, and after a minute of "SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE" (boot screen) I started to panic :crying:

I Tryed to go back in CWM Recovery, but it kept saying that "Samsung" sign. I'm able to connect the phone in download mode to the pc... but now I don't know what to do :(

Should I install the Phliz Kernel and install a STOCK/CUSTOM ROM like the stock samsung rom or the Cyanogenmod? o.O

Thanks in advance :)

Can you give more info?

1. Is your battery charged

2. Did you tried to flash stock roms with RSD, if you did, tell which xml you tried to install.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abutreca:
1. Was charged 80-90% when it bricked. I cant see how many battery is remaining but if i see the moto logo, something have to have.

2. I need the bootloader before trying that. The RSD doesn't detect my phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
Ok first hold the two volume buttons then push and release the power button. Then click on bp tools and see if the logo comes and than goes to the battery thing. Or try to just go into the same place and say normal boot. If all else fails do a fast boot. and use the droid razr root utility to restore back to stock. Let me know if any of this helps or you have questions.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LordGarth:
Try this exactly to get into fastboot mode...

Power off phone

Press and hold volume down and power button

When the screen flickers release only the power button.

If you can get into fastboot you can use Matt's DROID utility to flash OEM Jellybean Rom onto it in an attempt to resurrect.
