I maybe wrong from all the treads I have read. Is there a way to root and unlock bootloader on t mobile yet with latest firmware and updates
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
If you mean the C6606, then the bootloader is permanently locked. There is no method to bypass that.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wisper2000:
Yes thats the one im talking about.....bummer. that means no root either!?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Yes, you can root. If you're on a 4.2 firmware, then this should work - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1886460

If you're on 4.3, then you will have to downgrade to root, then flash a prerooted rom.

Hello Please some one help.

My Prestigio - PMP7280C3G V4.2.2 is now Rooted so for the past week or so now APK'S that I have downloaded from many internet apk websites have worked but everything is installing and using all my internal storage space.

How can I change the Download location on my Prestigio - PMP7280C3G V4.2.2 to the SDCARD if at all possible because so far I haven't been able to find a option to set the location to SDCARD. ( Any Help to do this would be much Appreciated. )

Also how can I run Apps/Games that some of them may or may not have data and that needs to be installed on to the Internal but how can I make it seem like the External is the Internal and make it run from the external..

I hope all the above makes sense and someone can help..

Any information and help will be much and greatly Appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] hurdlejade:
Hi, is anyone using Eye in the Sky weather app widget on his Gear? I can add widget and pull out weather data for it, but i can't customize colors - i have the color pallete option, but in order to save the color i would have to press "save" to confirm. If I just swipe back it stays the old color.

Hence - is there anyway to change DPI of this app on the Gear? Or maybe I can create a widget on my Note 3 and export it to Gear somehow?

Looking forward for help.

Thanks!

installs fine, after adding my hometown it tries to pull out data and then it crashes. didn't even get to widget screen yet as i have to reconfigure.

BobClockD3 has the same issue. You cannot resize the color picker and thus cannot choose a color.

tethering is working fine, other apps pull out data just fine. i uninstalled modded apk and installed the one i uploaded to dropbox and crashes are gone..

maybe there is a possibility to change the font in top bar? Color picker is unnecessarily big. Maybe there is another APK that I have to change DPI that is responsible for that window?

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gillyweed:
Hello all,

I am a first-time poster on XDA, but I've read loads on this site and want to thank everyone who contributes to it!

I managed to soft brick my S5830i while flashing a dodgy ROM, and am trying to unbrick. I've been trying to do this by flashing stock firmware through Odin, but I'm not having much luck so far. I keep getting write fails. I've used multi-file firmware (through Odin v1.85/v3.07) and single-file (through Odin v3.07). I've re-downloaded several different versions of firmware, and none have worked (i.e. I don't think it's a file error). I've tried with the cooperve .pit file, tried with the bootloader. I've turned off my antivirus. I've taken the SIM and micro SD cards out of my phone (I've tried taking the battery out as well, but then my drivers stop working!). I can boot into download and recovery, otherwise I'm stuck on a boot loop.

Odin has failed a couple of dozen times with different files, and sometimes just times out while initializing.

I feel like I'm running out of options - if anyone has any fresh ideas, I'd be grateful to hear them!

Thanks very much,
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hitesh2626:
Go into Recovery Mode

Do Wipe data /cache

Flash CWM

Again do Wipe data /cache

Format system

And then try to flash with Odin .
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gillyweed:
Error mounting /system

Thanks Hitesh

I had a go at your instructions. I've wiped the data and cache multiple times as you suggested, but I'd not thought of formatting /system, so I hoped it might work. It didn't - it looks like I can't wipe it... I get an error message:

Formatting /system...

Error mounting /system!

Skipping format...

Done

I remember having problems mounting /system because of the ROM which bricked my phone in the first place! Maybe that's the problem? Any thoughts on how to get round it?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hitesh2626:
Ok try these go to search button right up side

Type it there MultiFormator.zip

You will see one thread of these zip

Go to last page its because on OP download links are not working you ll see on last page ...

After downloading Flash it via CWM

And It will start and will ask you 2 Option

a)Format system to EXT4

B)Format system to RFS

Then you choose RFS

After process get completes

Go into download Mode and then flash STOCK ...

i hope now these will work.:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gillyweed:
Thanks again,

In case it helps anyone else following these instructions, I found the tool. Search for "multiformatter" [note spelling]. The thread is number 2012003 and is called "[TOOL] Multi Formatter [EXT4 to RFS vice versa]" - go to page 6 as Hitesh said.

Okay, so I got the tool, flashed it on my phone, formatted everything to RFS. Once it finished I went into download mode, and tried flashing stock... still no luck! I've tried different files, different versions of Odin, different USB ports and it always gets stuck at initializing and hangs.

Any thoughts? I'm really grateful for the help so far.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hitesh2626:

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gillyweed:
Up and running

Just to get closure on this thread,

I continued trying everything I could to flash different versions of firmware through Odin. It was a big help to format the system in RFS, so thanks for pointing that out. After that fix, Odin was still unable to communicate with my device... but after realising that the underlying problem was now dealt with, I moved on to flashing through CWM. I didn't manage to get anything done with Odin - might be my (only!) USB cable, or my USB ports, or any of the other millions things that could go wrong with it. But I successfully flashed AndroidScream in recovery and am up and running.

Thanks again Hitesh, and also to the whole XDA community!

I am having the same problem with odin (3.7 and 1.84), its just not flashing the stock roms. I am running out of ideas and getting desperate. When you say you "formatted the system in RFS" do you mean you factory wiped your phone? If that is the case then no luck for me :(

A Galaxy Ace Plus is not the equivalent of GT-S5830i. They most probably don't have the same chipset either, so DON'T TRY FLASHING GT-S5830i STUFF ON YOUR GT-S7500.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbomodder:
OK so I managed to brick my S5830, I tried to use mobile Odin and it said device not listed but it could do a dump or something to make it compatible so I did and since this it's bricked, soft I think. The SD cards dead now too. Odin finds the phone and flash's OK and say pass but phone just flash's over and over when I try to turn on. Recovery gets me into ramdump (arm9 mode) with Samsung logo in middle. If recovery is home+volume up+power that is. download mode gets me to download screen but jumps straight to it, (see PIC) I'm hoping its just a simple soft brick issue that's easy to solve as its 4 years old almost so no warranty.

My samsung ace is bricked odin will not recognise it and usb drivers don't work.

I have tried to download KIES but my pc says that the administrator will not allow kies to be downloaded on my system (windows 10) are there any alternatives?

Can you flash the stock rom on to ace without odin, just using the sd card as I can get recovery mode and cwm.

Thanks In advance

So the Galaxy Note 8.0 is currently stuck on Android v4.2.x, which sucks if you want to keep the TouchWiz features.

The Note 3 and Note 10.1 2014 Edition have both been released with more updated software, and an updated TouchWiz - I'm really curious as to why we haven't seen any ports of those ROMs over to the Note 8.0. I tried searching, and came up empty. Anyone?

Trying to justify buying the Dev edition to have unlocked bootloader. Will all roms written for the VZW GS4 work on the dev edition? Never owned a developer edition device before so please excuse the ignorance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpcalhoun:
I dont know of any ROMs that don't run on the S4., Obviously some ROMS run better on the S4 than others and that is a matter of personal preference. The one thing you don't want to do is flash anything that touches the bootloader. As long as you keep the stock MDK bootloader that the phone comes with your OK. There hasn't been an OTA update for the Dev edition and there are no "stock recovery files" released from Samsung...yeah they're treating us like red headed step children. There are a lot pretty good ROMS out there so keeping up to date on the latest version of Android is not hard....just don't do anything that touches the bootloader and you'll be fine!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] naviathan:
My Note 2 is running the stock Verizon 4.1.2 load. I've stuck with it because when I first got my phone there were no roms that had the Samsung S tools and I didn't want to risk losing that major advantage to this phone. Now that 4.3 is out, how can I update to it without wiping my phone? I've got this thing setup perfect right now and I don't want to lose all my settings by going to a custom rom. Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MunkinDrunky:
There might be an easy way but I'm pretty sure it's always going to be tedious and you'll have to wipe.

Dirty flash to 4.3 I dunno. First you can always use titanium backup. You can back up messages with sms backup and restore I find it helps if you don't go the titanium backup route.. Anything important on sdcard0 make a copy of and put somewhere like computer just in case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] naviathan:
What do you mean by dirty flash?

Thanks for the reply BTW!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MunkinDrunky:
well to go to 4.3 you have to do the Odin update (not the rom) see beans thread in dev about stock rooted image of 4.3. Then (i havent done it, i like 4.1.2) only then could you flash the stock rooted image like normal. You can always flash roms without wiping (dirty flash) but that of course is at your own discretion and of all the problems that might arise from that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] naviathan:
Ok I think I get it. Honestly, I'm happy with 4.1.2 for now. The only reason I think I would upgrade is if I actually bought one of those gear watches. How do I stop the update notice from popping up?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrian.aitken:
Firstly, apologies if this is the wrong forum to post this but to me it looked the most obvious :laugh:

I'm trying to get a CWM install.zip package (writing it myself) to delete user apps (aka bloatware) - I'm using the installer-script way of doing things.

Here's what I've tried.

Method 1:

mount data

remove_recursive("/data/app")

umount data

Result 1:

blank directory is there on rebooting into JB

Method 2:

mount data

remove("/data/app/bloatware.apk")

umount data

Result 2:

Individual apk files are removed

So you ask, I got it nailed so what's the problem? The problem is either method results in ghost apps appearing in Settings/App where the app name appears in the com.developer.name format and is zero bytes. I can then uninstall it via the normal Uninstall button and It goes away but how can I properly remove it from inside CWM ? Are there files/databases where the apps are stored that need to be purged?

Secondly, whilst I have your attention :D , what is the proper way to mount the internal Sdcard, I've tried /sdcard,/mnt then going into sdcard, /storage then using /sdcard0 but nothing works either deleting directories or add them. Any ideas anyone?

Many thanks

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JReeher:
Ok im new to the s4 and have been doing alot of reading. So let me get this right I can root and install custom recovery without using a pc ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devo7v:
Just to be clear, this is the forum for the S4 Active which is a different phone than the regular S4. That said, it really depends on which version of the S4 Active you have:

If you have the AT&T version (i537), then you can root, but you cannot install custom recovery due to a locked bootloader (stupid AT&T). You can still install custom ROMs using SafeStrap, but you are limited to TouchWiz based ROMs.

If you have the International version (i9295), then you can root and install custom recovery (the bootloader is unlocked), so you can pretty much install whatever you want.

I hope this helps, check out the Development section of this forum for more information.
