[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herrenfam:
What command(s) would I use to remove these programs? The only command I know is "ADB SHELL su". I am not an idiot at computer software, but I was absent on the day they handed out the intelligence on DOS commands.

And how would I get rid of the associated program files? Or do I just leave them on the drive?

What I would really like to do is unroot the device (which seemed to screw it up last time I tried it), restore to factory defaults as to erase all this gibberish, and restart from fresh, with a clean slate and then a clean root. Can that be done? How would I accomplish that? Like I said, it seemed that I the problems with the programs not uninstalling started with the restoring of the device, be it by unrooting it or by restoring the device to factory defaults on the kindle.

PS: yes, I can get into SU on ADB on my computer. I just don't know where to go from there. And my ES File Explorer is V. 3.0.9.0. I looked in the settings and could not find a option to change file to RW.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ph0enix_216:
The commands to remove bloatware and stuff (in this case, apps) would be:

adb shell
su
mount /system
rm /system/app/nameofapp1.apk
rm /system/app/nameofapp2.apk
rm /system/app/nameofapp3.apk
reboot

If a clean slate is what you want, then you can use this tool here to flash three stock Kindle partition images (boot.img, recovery.img, and system.img) to your Kindle via fastboot. The images aren't of the latest firmware, but I don't think OTA updates are disabled, so you can just let your Kindle auto update over wi-fi.

If "su" works in the ADB shell, then I guess you are rooted. I don't know what to say from there, except to backup whatever data you can and start fresh.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herrenfam:
Thanks a great deal. Where is the program to flash the three stock .img files so I can have a from-the-beginning kindle? I've already got the only thing I need from the device - a list of the third-party apps and where I downloaded them from.

Sir,

I'd like to ask. I just updated my device to 4.4. I noticed that it is no longer rooted.

I tried rooting again my device, but it is not working because of bootlooping problem.

Is there any remedy for this in order for me to be able to root my 4.4 device?

Thanks in advance.

Have you got the right cf autoroot file? - if not head over to chainfire.eu and grab the latest for Kitkat
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Andrewtst:
BL step is a must! without update the BL, your flash will fail and phone stuck.

KitKat 4.4.2 ROM must update the BL and they is no chances revert back to older 4.3 ROM.

I notice that XXUCML1 have the SELinux set to Enforce I install some root apps but some time can't be use then iread about the new kernel implement by samsung.... Enforcing, Permissive, and disabel..... itry all think possibly to change the SELinux status but no hope. ...

Then I change the kernel ramdisk and it works

This is i9205 kernel take from XXUCML1 i change the ramdisk to set Permissive and its have init.d support

1. Download this https://mega.co.nz/#!KBdhUI7D!q2Y5wI-UqSGh4Vtcw7CmCZKZw2WX9JjNvjokdcSjESU

1.2 Link to CML4

2. Make a backup first ( for boot.img using cwm recovery )

2. Flash i9205_Kernel_SELinux_Permissive.zip using cwm recovery.

3. Boot.

Check SELinux status at about device

Please report wether its ok or not
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] megalomanic14:
Dude this would be sick...I was just gonna tackle this after I finished my other rom that's currently uploading now...If this works that'd be great I could build a rom around your new kernel and hopefully destroy the last bit of Knox and selinux...shame that samsung chose to go this route...Our development was already pretty minimal for the mega and the Knox boot and selinux Damn near killed it.

Let me know your results and if you'd be cool with me using your kernel in a new rom. And I'll try and flash this...ps I have a way to revert back to stock rooted mj2 if anyone updates and gets stuck without root.

Sent from my GT-I9205
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] stargmc:
[MENTION=5086062]shazzl[/MENTION], thanks for your bootloader mod om CML4. Just flashed it with CWM, steps as follows:

1) my Mega had already PhilZ-touch-CWM installed, thus booting into recovery, wipe data+cache+dalvik and install "i9205_kernel_cml4" (mod by shazzl) on SD thru CWM;

2) without leaving CWM install then "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.80" on SD;

3) reboot via CWM and finish things (wifi, Google a/c, etc) from the Setup pages, go to Apps Drawer select SuperSU then a message pops out asking for knox invalidation, Confirm;

4) do a reboot, update SuperSU to the latest v1.91, install busybox, root explorer, titanium backup, greenify, lucky patcher, etc - all works fine.

NOTE: 2 Red lines show up at top of the Samsung start up screen on every boot, together with a line saying like Warranty: kernel. Also at Settings/About device, SE for Android status goes to Permissive -which is good!!!

I know the knox warranty counter is "010" meaning warranty void but may be some genius devs can work around later, lol. Thanks shazzl again.

My phone has gone loopy the usb only charges it no longer works for data but I want to root my phone is there a way of doing it without needing to plug the phone into a pc

Thanks
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
What exactly is your problem? Do you mean mobile data or storage like sdcard? Also, you definitely need to plug int into a PC for rooting because you need to install a custom recovery via fastboot (due to S-ON, there is no other way).
[HTC Desire X] factorydefault000:
Plugged my phone into my pc and it will not be seen by HTC manager, windows or any other software I tried everything and I can't get the data transfer through usb to work I can get it to charge but that's it
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
OK, try reinstall the drivers. If that won't work, try to insert sdcard directly to PC via adapter, or try using adb / fastboot from Linux.
[HTC Desire X] factorydefault000:
I did a fresh install of hyc manager tried several usb cables I use to plug it in and my computer would show desire x but I get nothing at all now from any usb port or any cable can't see the port on the phone beeing damaged as its carging so thinking the board has gone insane
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
What kind of USB port are you using? USB 3.0 or USB 2.0? USB 3.0 is known to cause issues. Also, did you try another port or another computer maybe?
[HTC Desire X] factorydefault000:
Usb 2 , 3 offical htc cables and 2 diffrent computers all refuse to see the data transfer mode only charging
[HTC Desire X] CurtisMJ:
Did you get ADB or fastboot working (as dansou901 suggested)? Fastboot is the last resort, if thats not working from atleast linux you may need to use your warranty.
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
Yeah... If it won't work like [MENTION=5278223]CurtisMJ[/MENTION] suggested, the usb port on your phone might be broken...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DRRies:
Hello all,

I have had my S4 for awhile now and need some help. When I first received it, I did some reading, rooted, did something that removed a triangle or a padlock, can't remember which one and made sure the AT&T software update was unable to run. At the time, custom recovery wasn't possible so I stopped there. So here I am now, rooted with MDL and I have no idea where to go from here to get the latest 4.3, although apparently I have the holy grail of firmware. ;)

I've read as much as I possibly can, subscribed to the forums, GOOGLED, SEARCHED, RTFM and waited for someone else to come along and ask the very same question. Some did but those threads never really gave me the info I need to SAFELY flash my phone up to 4.3. So what do I do? All I need is some guidance, I follow directions well. Teach me! Please and Thank You

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ted77usa:
DO NOT UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE IF YOU STILL HAVE MDL. ....U JUST NEED INSTALL CWM RECOVERY OR TWRP RECOVERY. .... AND THEN INSTALL CUSTOM 4.3 ROM. .... EVEN 4.4 KITKAT ROM. ..... BUT IF U DO UPDATE TO NEWEST MK2 FIRMWARE THEN U WOULD LOSE THE PRIVILEGE OF MDL..... WHICH IS RARE. ..... GOODLUCK

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DRRies:
Right! One of the things I have learned is that I want to keep the MDL baseband. What I really want are all the improvements that 4.3 or 4.4 offer. Also, I'm hoping my Pebble and my S4 play better together than they do now.

Do I just pick a recovery? Are they the same? Guess I need to read some more.

Swyped from MK2 Deadly Venom SS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
As ted said, upgrading is bad. You can change modems and such to the MK2 baseband, it's the bootloader that's the issue. As long as you don't try to take any OTA's and don't ODIN any newer version you'll be fine. If you want to run the official AT&T 4.3, your closest bet is StockUp MK2 and the rebloat addon. Otherwise, you can choose either CWM or TWRP and flash away as long as you remember to use the loki patch for things that aren't patched already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DRRies:
I've read the info at the link you provided before and wondered if I'm already rooted, what would happen? Is that safe to use if currently rooted?

Also, since I'm currently on MDL, would a factory reset return me to a fresh MDL or would it force me to update to current software?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DRRies:
Ok so I strated with the thread posted. I now have TWRP installed, nandroid backed up and all sorts of zips on my ext card. Also made Kies backups. My first ROM flash, Stockup_MK2 went fine until reboot and I had no mobile data or cell signal. What did i do wrong? I immediately did a restore from the nandroid backup to return to where was before.

[HTC One X+] Sorainzo:
Hello. Anyone know how to keep the "creation" timestamp date when transferring files from the phone? It seems like with the MTP transfer protocol that the phone uses (unlike regular mass storage), every time you transfer files OFF of the phone (since the phone uses MTP instead of mass-storage), it changes the "creation" timestamp date, which is pretty annoying, and screws up the way you arrange things, such as pictures, etc. I tried .zips, .rars, .tar.gzs, ftp, etc. and all keeps changing the "creation" date. It's like MTP recreates the file or something, yet it keeps the "modification" date, which is weird.

I tried using a program to just mass-modify all the files to match the creation date with the modification date, which would essentially be a resolution to the problem, however that program is a little wonky and wont match them for some reason.

So, if anyone knows of a way to get files off of the phone, by any means, and keep the "creation" timestamp or has a program that can match files' creation dates to modify dates in bulk, please let me know, thanks.
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
Try using a wifi transfer app? :/.
[HTC One X+] Sorainzo:
Tried 2 Wifi Apps, AirDroid and Wifi File Transfer, and although thy are fantastic apps, they do not get the job done. Even when the files are downloaded through those apps, it STILL changes the date. You can "Copy" or "Move" the file, the phone still changes the date.

I know someone has run into this problem with MTP transfers before.
