[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyleberry.graphics:
Can you explain what the exploit was? I recall flashing the custom boot loader at line 1049 (or something to that affect) in the memory, but what was it that made that possible?

Edit* looking back at the kftt process, I see a stack override was used. I understand that the file was pushed to the sd card, but what did it actually do?

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LinearEquation:
Google Play Store for the 11.1.x.x 2013 Kindle fire HD is for window shopping only. Any attempts to download will freeze the tablet. At this point, the answer to your question is no. You can sideload about any app and make it work though. FDroid and 1mobile are great sites to get the latest apks.

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

No, because I didn't ever really looked into it.

For the Kindle Fire HD 7 a 2nd bootloader had to be flashed. It had to be flashed before 7.3.0 because the next firmware release patched the bootloader. This is why a 7.2.3 bootloader image had to be flashed as well (to make the exploit possible.) Since no exploit exists, at the moment, there is no way to even flash any unsigned files.

The stack override file makes it so you can install unsigned recovery and boot images.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyleberry.graphics:
So what about mimicking the file signature?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
That would be very difficult to do, and also very expensive considering how many hard bricks it would probably make. I mean I suppose if someone with the know how analyzed several bootloaders for all the devices that have signed boot loaders that are omap based we might be able to get a better idea of what the signature is that is added to the file to replicate, but no one seems to have done that, probably because its immensely difficult I would imagine. I kinda compare it to making a keygen for a program that spits out a random code and asks for the code that goes with it. Though I'm assuming way more difficult.

Hey man. I'm having the same problem. Did you find a fix?
[General Questions and Answers] erecker:
FIXED - System is not write protected...Executing step 3...

I am on Republic Wireless on MotoX. I was on 4.2.2, rooted with rockmymoto 1.0, used Tmobile XT1053 Safestrap to get recovery, and did the MotoWpNoMo wp fix. I updated to 4.4.2.

I got my Google Services all messed up and had to wipe, so I had to run a full recovery to 4.2.2.

After recovering to 4.2.2 and confirming all is good, I tried to root again, but rockmymoto got stuck saying System is not write protected...Executing step 3...

I then tried both slapmymoto and pwnmymoto and neither worked. :(

I decompiled rockmymoto and changed the line where it checks if you're write protected, inverted the logic.

I ran the modified rockmymoto-ef 3 times until it was stuck again saying:

Improper su installation detected, allowing re-install...

System is write protected...

Executing step 2...

After reboot, please re-run RockMyMoto...

Rebooting now...

After the 3rd reboot of the above, I pushed the original jcase RockMyMoto, launched Impactor, and ran RockMyMoto.

It was successful!

I installed supersu from the app store, and I'm now good to go again.

I updated to 4.4.2 (retaining 4.2.2 safestrap recovery), sideloaded supersu, and am now happy on 4.4.2 root with write-protect off.

Props to all those who came before me, I didn't do anything but change a 1 to a 0. This definitely helped me so happy to pay it forward!

Attachment rockmymoto-erecker.jar - Rename to rockmymoto.jar before pushing (not sure if this step is necessary?).

Run original rockmymoto a few times until it's confirmed stuck skipping straight to "Executing step 3".

Rename rockmymoto-erecker.jar to rockmymoto.jar, push it and run as normal a few times until it's confirmed stuck skipping straight to "Executing step 2" and rebooting.

Push the ORIGINAL rockmymoto.jar back to the phone, and run it. It shouldn't reboot, and you should now be able to download supersu and install from the play store.

I rooted my Note3 and happily installed CyanogenMod11 nightly (KK4.4.2). All fine and very happy, but I miss the S Pen features and apps.

How would it be possible to get S Pen features back, but remain on CM11?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
You cannot get all the features back however you can try

GMD SPen control, as it has some SPen functions, used it myself without issue.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A.N.Droid:
for pie control and more i use LMT.

great app ! would be cool if you could trigger the pie with the s pen button.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trollfluga:
Hmmm... GMD looks promising. Thanks alot. But... does your answer also mean I can forget about re-flashing S-Pen API separately somehow, and re-flashing the original S-Pen apps? Is that a totally stupid idea?

I know some of you readers will think "well, why did you root and flash another rom from the begining, if you liked it before?". Well it was originally full of bloat - we all know that - and the only thing worthy was the S-Pen features and the pen itself.

Anyone tried?

Thanks again.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Yeah you can't flash SPen stuff due to it being dependent on the TouchWiz framework.

Hey guys!

My bother's brand new xperia J screen stoped responding after he droped it into water.

Actually it died completelly, but after several days in a bag of rice, it was able to suck in the humidity in it, and now everything works except for the touchscreen. Once I saw it booting with clear image on the screen, I thought everything would be fine.

Do you have any other sugestions? Maybe the humidty wasn't completelly sucked and its preventing the touchscreen to work.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gordon Ramsay:
Just switched from Verizon a few days ago. I had a note 3 there as well. I am now on my fourth phone. The first three were black Note 3s and the GPS was unusable almost non functional. Got a white one from a new shipment as my fourth and while it is weak compared to our other phones, it is accurate enough to get around. I just want to make sure everyone thinks to check GPS before their return period is up as there is a bad batch out there. My first three even comprised of phones from two different phones. Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gordon Ramsay:
Meant to say comprised of phones from two different stores. XDA premium won't let me edit. Sorry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] EtherealRemnant:
A Samsung device... with a bad GPS? NEVER!

Ummm... its pretty much common knowledge by now that Samsung devices have finicky GPSes. I've had a Captivate, an S3, and an S4. GPS issues with all of them that took some tweaking to figure out.

Unfortunately, its not a hardware issue. Its a Samsung issue, most likely relating to baseband programming.

One thing that might fix it is forcing your phone to use HSPA only when you're using your GPS. On previous Samsung phones, network switching would kill the GPS every time so it doesn't seem far-fetched to think they still haven't fixed it now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Eric214:
I just got my Note 3 last Friday so like 5 days ago. I have no issues with my GPS, it locks in about 8 seconds. I did have to turn on both GPS and Google location settings in Maps settings and it was fine. I don't use Maps often so i turn off Google location settings until i need them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Rob the plumber:
My GPS is was pretty weak too. It would take about a minute to get a lock, and when navigating down a freeway it would usually think I'm on the service drive next to it and constantly tell me to turn, etc... Strangely after flashing Willl03s cm11 my GPS locks right away and navigation is dead nuts.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gordon Ramsay:
Ummm... you are right that it is common knowledge, but unfortunately finicky doesn't equate to non-functional. Just trying to prevent people from ending up with a phone that has a useless feature. I now have a proper "finicky" Samsung GPS on my fourth phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gordon Ramsay:
Did everything you said, on several phones. I had mentioned that, you may have overlooked it. These were problems I was having on out of the box phones, so roms and rooting at that point were irrelevant.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] xneolithicspx:
These phones tend to turn the actually GPS on for battery. Took me a while to figure it out. Make sure that us actually on then try again. Mine was fine to start then a little while ago it had issues. Turns out the GPS was off. All that is on is Google location with WiFi.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] EtherealRemnant:
If it was a useless feature, there would be a huge uproar about it all over XDA.

Generally when someone goes on the sarcastic defensive, it means they know they did something wrong that they didn't do on their "working" phone. Just saying.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gordon Ramsay:
Are you serious right now? I am not an idiot when it comes to android phones. I have had many. I also am familiar with Samsung and GPS issues. I had an experience where 3 phones functioned as if they had no GPS antenna what so ever. I cleared GPS data, I downloaded the assistance data. I tried the NTP trick. Obviously I know it is not a common problem which is why I thought there was a possibility that there is a bad batch floating around out there. If you are so bored and aggitated that you feel the need to give me sarcastic condescending responses in response to me trying to simply be helpful, then I feel that speaks for itself. Next time if I feel I have something helpful to contribute I guess I will just keep it to myself. Asking people to check their GPS in the timespan of 14 days...how dare me. Sorry XDA
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] EtherealRemnant:
Sarcasm gets sarcasm. Can't take the heat? Get out of the sun.

You didn't specify any specifics as to what you tried in your first post and you've had cheeky responses to everyone else, what did you expect we were going to do, give you a shiny medal?

All of this that you just posted should have been in your first post. Your first post basically tells anyone who's having any GPS issue to return their phone but outlines nothing about what you did to attempt to fix it. Don't you think that's just a little bit important to put troubleshooting steps in a post when you're making a statement that there is a bad batch going around?

It isn't rocket science.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spunkfaucet666:
Wow you're a rude douche. Are you always that big of an a-hole to people who are just trying to be helpful? Lose the attitude man, it's not like his post is that big of an inconvenience to you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gordon Ramsay:
Go back and read your first response to this post and then talk about cheeky.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] EtherealRemnant:
I think I stated why I was being cheeky in my last post. The information that you put in your previous post should have been in the first one. Since it wasn't, it was logical to assume that you didn't know what you were doing. I wouldn't have said anything if you didn't turn around and have another cheeky quote to someone else which you also apparently thought deserved a second post all of its own.

There would have been no cheeky responses if you had been up front with all of the information in your original post.

See the above. There really ought to be a school for how to formulate one's original post when starting a new thread with a test that you have to pass before you can ever post. If everyone posted threads saying that people should return a device based on issues they were having but with no details as to what specifically makes that device faulty, we would have people returning devices in droves for no good reason whatsoever. Don't attack me for doing what most others want to do or have done in the past and just given up on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spunkfaucet666:
He didn't say to return the phone, he was simply saying to make sure the GPS worked okay before the 14 day return window was up. Really no harm in it, a better course of action on your part would have been to simply clarify some things that OP should have included in your first response instead of being a douche. Might as well close this thread OP since nobody can try to be helpful without getting flamed.

My GPS anecodote: #8472921

SGS1 Captivate: GPS == crappy h/w

AT&T SGS3 GPS == great

T-Mobile Note3 GPS = great

Nexus 7 GPS = great

Nexus 10 GPS = great

Kindle Fire GPS = don't remember

...

The only samsung devices universally notorious for bad GPS were the original Galaxy S1's. Even outdoors it'd often take over minute to get a lock, but wouldn't keep lock, and would be inaccurate - forget about an indoors lock. Samsung wized up after that.

Still have my Captivate, too, running CM11, and the GPS still sucks.

(This PSA thread is just a case of the squeaky wheel minority making a lot of noise, IMO)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] EtherealRemnant:
First off, you took my sarcasm in that post as being directed at you. That's your fault, not mine. The sarcasm that came later was a direct response to the sarcasm that you used in response to me and in response to [MENTION=2650030]BACARDILIMON[/MENTION]. My initial sarcastic tone in that post was actually meant more towards my annoyance with Samsung for failing to fix an issue that has plagued their Galaxy line since its inception but I see how it could have been taken totally wrong.

You're making some rather bold assumptions yourself, however. Like believing that everyone on XDA has a grasp on troubleshooting. Clearly you don't read many posts in Q&A or General if you believe that to be true. New users that don't know anything outnumber the rest of us by probably 5 to 1, if not more. There's nothing wrong with that as this is basically a hybrid community of users and developers but assuming that the majority know how to check for problems themselves is probably one of the worst assumptions of all.

And when you start your thread title with PSA its pretty clear that you're saying this is a huge issue and people should return their devices within the 14 day period if they have any GPS problems. So yes, if people were to blindly follow that post, you are suggesting people return their defective devices. Seems pretty clear to me.

In any case, I've made my point and I'm not going to keep beating a dead horse. I have better things to do with my time.

I am glad that it doesn't seem to be a wide spread issue. I have never received so many defective devices in a row before.
