More info

I'd like a custom rom - but when I tried to flash the ML4.3 offered on this site - or even tried to reflash my old Cleanrom7 that i still had on my external flash memory that previously worked I couldn't boot.

I flashed VRUCML1_Stock_Root_Deodex (12.31.13 downloaded from the link. MD5 checked OK) this would try to boot - then just go back into recovery (I used the latest version of TWRP and used EZ-Unlock). Of course I wiped the device before I started. I flashed the rom and observed all of the successful messages during the flash. I never caught the really little blue message that flashed at the beginning of the boot cycle before it went black and rebooted to recovery. At that point I wiped again and flashed Cleanrom 7. It flashed, then started the installer that let me pick all sorts of apps. When I tried to boot - it just hung on the Samsung SIII banner that appears shortly after boot. I let it sit there for about an hour before pulling the battery. Then I ODINed back the the 4.1.2 version that I'm running now.

I tried this several times - even going as far as installing CRP recovery - same result.

So I'm about our of ideas...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
When you flashed back to 4.1.2 and it's working fine, at this point check to see if your bootloader is unlocked (even unlock tool said unlocked, you need to verify that it's unlocked). If it's not what ever you flash will not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgbird:
I never "flash" back. I have an ODIN image (KIES_HOME_I535VRBMF1_1152558_REV09_user_low_ship.tar.md5 ) that I use. At that point everything is replaced and I'm back to a stock bootloader (at least that's how it looks to me). When I root - then use EZ-Unlock at this point, the bootloader is locked. I suppose that it would be interesting to try to "flash" a 4.1.2 original and see what would happen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
I believe your image is fine. The key I want to point out is make sure your bootloader is unlocked. After you unlock with EZ-Unlock, boot into download mode and verify that the bootloader is actually unlock, before you proceed to flash anything else.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgbird:
OK - I'll try that. What do I look for in download mode that would indicate (or what should I try to do) that would prove that I'm "unlocked"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
boot into Odin mode (download mode) and you shoud see.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgbird:
I don't see anything about "unlocked"

when i press the down volume, home and power button I start into ODIN mode.

if i press the down arrow the phone will just re-boot

then i press the up arrow to continue into ODIN (download mode) I get:

:

Product Name: ICH-I535

Custom Binary Download: Yes (3 count)

Current Binary: Customl

System Status: Customl

Qualcom Secureboot: Enable

I still don't see anything about the unlocked bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
This Qualcom Secureboot: Enable - meaning bootloader is locked
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgbird:
Just as a matter of curiosity, EZ-Unlock reports the bootloader to be “unlocked”. Wonder what’s wrong with that?

So pretty much at this point it appears that the only thing that I can do is to ODIN the official 4.3 tar file or stay on the 4.1.2 file that I ODINed previously.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Are you rooted? if not it's not going to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgbird:
I am rooted - I'm sure of that...

I'm also running the latest TWRP recovery.

EZ-Unlock still lets me lock and unlock the bootloader.

I'm also thinking of flashing VRLE6.bootloader.zip, rebooting, doing an EZ-Unlock and seeing what happens.

If that doesn't work - I'll have to decide

1. do I f staying where I'm at - running 4.1.2 ?

or

2. Do I give up and take the softbrick tar file and lock everything up ?

I'm not sure of what are the pros and cons of either alternative
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
If you're not rooted, EZ unlock just report false results.

If you like to play with custom rom/kernel, meaning not bug free and become a flashcoholic then stay with 4.1.2

If you want a stable, no headache trouble free then upgrade to 4.3

I upgraded my wife to 4.3 and very happy with the results. Everything just work, performance is very good and smooth, gps locked in seconds...enough said.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgbird:
Even if I had to stay on 4.1.2 I'd want CleanRom7 at least. I used that since July when it came out. I liked the features and customizations. I'd like to continue to flash - however every time that I try ( and you can see the results earlier in the thread) the phone wouldn't boot. I think that some part of the OTA got on the phone. For a period of time, I was constantly nagged to take the upgrade. I think that my son answered "yes" and some part updated - until stopped Cleanrom.

Anyway I tried to reflash CleanRom as well as the non-locked ML1 item. Each time, Samsung flashes, then the ornamental Samsung SIII graphic just sits there. In a normal boot, that only lasts a second. Maybe I'll try it again and let sit there for an hour or two and see if something changes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
If you are switch from rom to rom, you may have trash residuals. I would wipe cache/dalvik cache/data/system before I flash another rom (clean install), saved me a lot of little issues here and there...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Formatting your internal SD may also be needed, because 4.3 creates a 0/ folder that 4.1 doesn't have.

Alternatively, philz touch recovery has a 0/folder migration that will clear out that folder when switching.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgbird:
two questions?

1. Do you have a link for philz touch recovery?

2. If I format the internal SD - will an nandroid backup still work? I thought that that had to back into an identical file structure...

Also I do a factory reset each time that I flash.

I know that I'm root because EZ-Unlock requires it. If root isn't enabled - it terminates. When Root is enabled, SuperSU asks permission to do the unlock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
1.

2. No, The file structure gets completely replaced because a nandroid copies your internal sd card. It'll remake the folder structure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
Just a quick question to cover all the bases. Which version of EZ Unlock are you using? Version 1.2 is the only one that actually works to unlock your bootloader.

I soft resetted the device and removed the program, now my mini s is incredibly slow. Is there anything i can do to fix it or am i looking at ANOTHER hard reset?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Firstly lots of 2003 games do work on wm5 so don't be put off by this one.

Often when they uninstall they leave stuff behind!

1. Check \program files\ and storage card\program files\ and delete any folders with reference to that program.

2. Check windows\startup and see if any lnk to program and delete

3. If your used to reg editing check both software keys and delete ref to program

4. If you have a notification queue editor eg memaid use that and delete references to program

memaid trial found at

5. if all else fails hard reset

6. check future programs before installing at wm5 fix site

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moobe:
Hello everyone,

I have a galaxy s 4 GT i9500, running android 4.3 (build i9500XXUEMK9). The phone is sim unlocked and I am using it on virgin mobile canada. When I go Mobile networks>Network mode, the only options available are WCDMA and GSM, there is no LTE/4G.

After some search, I found out that this might be a location problem, and I should flash the canadian firmware to "enable" LTE on my phone, however I was not able to find a canadian i9500 firmware, it seems that this is the asian version of the phone.

My question is, can I flash the canadian firmware, which is for model SGH-I337M, on my i9500?

Is there any other way to enable LTE?

Thanks a lot.

So for the last maybe month its been getting worse where I can receive mms either with a picture or as a group conversation but sending was hit and miss. If I was on WiFi that was usually the issue, now even turning off WiFi first doesn't garuntee sending. I tried hangouts (briefly), I've deleted most of my threads, even removed safe strap ( I wasn't using it), ota to MI1, no wipe flashed MI1 ( to get MJ7 ota to take) then it's to mk2. Still the issue persists, I Ned WiFi off and maybe I can get a mms out.

This is all been on stock TW with stock messaging app (other than hangouts). The extent of my modding on this device was running wanam on xposed.

Your help is appreciated!!!

Also I do still somehow have a custom logo at start up though in about phone it shows boot type as Samsung.

Hey everyone,

First off, this site is awesome, and thanks so much to everyone here, especially those who have taken the time to figure out how to tweak the heck out of these devices!

Anyways, I'm running the Qtek test ROM on my T-Mobile MDA. I have a stereo bluetooth headset (Motorola HT820) that works fine for streaming audio, but the buttons don't work for controlling it (i.e. AVRCP is problematic). I use TCPMP as my audio player which worked fine with my Axim x50V in WM2003SE. Any ideas why this may be happening on this ROM? I understand it's a test ROM, and that's exactly what it's for - testing. But I sure hope I can get AVRCP to work with this!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloonix:
Hello,

i finally got my Nexus 5 today and first thing I did was unlocking the bootloader, installed TWRP custom recovery, flashed CM11-nightly and Franco Kernel (r31).

Next thing I usually do is to uninstall some apps with Titanium Backup (Pro). But I can't uninstall any system apps (e. g. Browser.apk). Titanium says "successful" but after refreshing the application list, the app is still there.

Does anyone have an idea what is going wrong here? Is it a problem with CM11's superuser or with Titanium Backup?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aerowinder:
What happens if you delete the file with a file manager and reboot?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloonix:
I used Solid Explorer as a file manager and tried to delete /system/app/Browser.apk. The root-confirmation (CM11 superuser) pops up, asks for superuser (i grant) and Solid Explorer deletes the file without error. But the file is still there (without reboot).

Issue with superuser?

Edit: Stop... I noticed /system is mounted as read-only.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloonix:
I tried to analyze the problem... and the only conclusion is, that my superuser is not working. Also Super SU ist not working. I also flashed Omni ROM instead of CM11 with no success. I used an older version of TWRP without success. Does anybody has an idea?

Edit: Before with Stock ROM and Super SU it was working.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloonix:
I don't know why I'm the only person with this issue... But I solved it with the following steps:

1. Flash CM11 (nightly)

2. Start the OS

3. Reboot to recovery and wipe cache/dalvik

4. Install "Super SU"

5. Start the OS

Titanium Backup is asking for root rights. Other apps also didn't get root in CM11. Whenever I install a new CM11 nightly root rights for TB are gone and I have to do the same steps again.

But why no one else has this problem? I googled like crazy. Is it CM11 or me?

Thanks a lot!

Changing selinux to "permissive" did solve all my problems. I also had issues with other applications.

How can I change the selinux mode directly in the CM11-Zip? Under Redhat/CentOS is a configuration file unter /etc/selinux. In CM11 I can't find something similar.

And how it comes that this issue is not well-known? I think there are more 4.4 KK / CM11 users with problems.

No I flashed Franco after CM.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
No problem. I know that problem was starting to annoy me. Got the idea from playing with a new Note 3. The newer Samsung 4.3 roms are like that too. If you don't change to Permissive then Xposed and other mods won't work either.

I guess it's possible that it's just something strange with certain CM11 and Franco kernel combos?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloonix:
Even without Franco (which was my first guess) CM11 (my root) behaves that way.

I will look for a method to set selinux to permissive directly in the ZIP of CM11 and will update this post.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloonix:
I tried this. And it was successfully changing selinux to permissive with every reboot. But doing this I noticed that even permissive doesn't solve the problem. CM11 built-in superuser just don't work for me. Only "Super SU" by Chainfire works well. And permissive solves a few other problems besides TiBa.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrasLOHF:
Personally I've always eventually had issues with Superuser unmounting the system as rw causing issues with apps like Titanium. Had it happen many many times on my old phone as well as the Nexus 5 across multiple ROMs. I just stick with SuperSU now.

I find this issue sometimes on varous flashes of CM 11 on different devices.

I use ROM toolbox fo manage apps, and sometimes it just wont delete. The solution is strange: I install adaway - somehow, that "unlocks" something that lets you delete apps. You can uninstall adaway once you have run it!

I'm replying just to help out anyone who has this issue, but doesn't have a Nexus 5. I was trying to find a fix for me and my Galaxy Nexus running the latest Paranoid Android beta 4.4.2 because I kept having this same problem.. It wouldn't uninstall... and I would only keep getting directed to this specific post. So....

I tried the 'selinux' fix first, and that alone would not do a thing...

I then tried installing the 'Wanam Xposed' app and it worked perfectly.

Just change selinux to permissive and make sure both selinux and Wanam have SU access and then try to uninstall via Titanium... or whatever method you usually use.

Hope it's okay for me to post here. Thanks for the help, everyone!

Hi,

unfortunately the SElinuxModeChanger seems not to work for me (Samsung Galaxy S2, CM 11 m6) and I do not really get how I should install Supersu (the first described solution). I guess I should not just install it from the play store - right? But were do I get an installable zip-file to install it from the CWM?

Or is there anything else that might be wrong in my system - so that I do not need to install supersu at all?

regards

Daniel
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
If you are already using CM11, then yes, you can install SuperSu from the Play Store. Once you do and open the app, it will prompt you to update the SuperUser binary. You should be able to do the "normal" method, and then once that updates, reboot, then try the SELinux app again and then everything should start to work like you would expect. If the normal method doesn't work, then you can let it download the newest zip for you if you choose the CWM/TWRP method, and then boot to recovery and install the zip it downloads for you.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ganghiss:
No clue why, but this worked for me. Permissive didn't do it (was already permissive using CM 11 for tf201) and AdAway didn't do it. Didn't matter that Wanam Xposed is for Samsung devices, once given root to this app, Titanium got its head out of its rump.

UPD: So, if i uninstall Wanam Xposed then TB sticks its head back up its rump. Whatever giving root to that app does, its fixing usage issues with TB.
