[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carkev:
thanks,

I would never deliberately wipe the Internal, but does it survive the 2 cache wipes and factory reset wipe ?

if it does not, then that save backup to Internal option seems meaningless.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
If you were to install ARHD and use the full SuperWipe (as recommended) many users lost their backups.

I personally use MicroSD for all my backups and never had an issue with it not working.

cheers mate, that settles it for me.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] atomsmasher:
Hey all,

I've been loving the Note 3 and getting into the S features much more than I ever did on my Note 1. I often find uses for the scrapbook feature and the action memo handwriting recognition is ridiculous. I can't seem to find a use for S-Note however. For drawing I'll just use SketchBook pro and for quick memos I'll use Google Keep or google tasks.

I'm curious, do any of you use S Note for anything useful, and if so could you share your experience.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yotuze:
Hi,

Today something strange happend with my I9505 which is rooted, have custom clean 4.3 rom and I9505XXUEMKE modem.

I had it in my pocket and it started to be very hot at the back, it was so hot that i had to turn it off. Now It only shows "No signal" icon at the bar and I can't do nothing to make it work, I did factory reset and flash new modem. Of course my sim card works OK in other phone and there is a problem with different sim card in my I9505.

Is there something else that I can check? Or sim card reader is just dead?

If sim card reader is dead, how can I get back to my carier (T-Mobile Germany) rom and modem, remove flash counter, unroot and remove CWM?

Because I need to send it to the guarantee :/

Need your help. Thank you.

EDIT:

I've install carier rom and unroot S4, now when I start phone in Download Mode i get something like this:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: GT-9505

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] EXDetonator:
Hey guys,

I have the latest twrp sprint build installed on my Sprint HTC One (m7wls). It seems that no matter what rom I install, after sliding up the lock and unlocking the screen, I get a white HTC splash screen. The phone then proceeds to boot loop. I can access my recovery perfectly fine. This has happened with Android revolution, viper rom, nocturnal google edition, beanstalk 4.4 ge. etc. If it's a GE rom, then the phone will go maybe 1 or 2 steps into set up and then boot loop. If it's a sense rom, I get the same result for each one: i swipe up to unlock, get a white splash screen, and bootloop. I've tried wiping every cache, reflashing several times, and sideloading. I'm really lost guys, I don't know why my phone hates me. Any ideas on what's wrong?

Thanks
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Sounds like you installed the GSM version of ViperOne or ARHD(meaning not the version that still has Sprint support).

You will need to RUU to fix it
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] EXDetonator:
Dang alright thanks, I'm downloading the RUU executable now. So all I do is relock the bootloader, and then run the RUU in fastboot? I hope this works, I need a working phone.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Yup re-lock and run from fastboot
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] EXDetonator:
I'm getting an error when trying to run the RUU. It's saying it can't connect to the device. Attached is a picture of the message. Any insights anybody?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Try a different usb port USB2 work best
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] EXDetonator:
I've tried another usb port, no dice. I tried the "fastboot devices" command line under both ports, and the device shows up so idk why the RUU utility won't work. I may try manually flashing the firmware via fastboot command.

*edit* I managed to manually flash the firmware package via fastboot, but the phone refuses to boot into even stock android. It's going straight to hboot each time, where it say i has os- 3.05. What's going on? I already relocked.

**edit 2** I've managed to RUU! Now time to reflash recovery and try another rom. Any recommendations?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fael097:
hi, I have a car that only accepts usb flash drives to play songs, when I connect my s4, it won't recognize any folders.

so I installed drivedroid, created a blank image and copied some songs into it, so my car will recognize this folder as a mass storage device, and now it's working.

problem is that I have some songs on my music folder, and had to copy the same songs into drivedroid's image.

is there a way to access the folder that drivedroid creates from the phone itself, so I can use the music player with it?

where's that folder located?

thanks

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjk639:
I have a TF300t that I have been doing custom ROMs on for over a year now. Not to long ago it messed up and I ended up doing a ADB side load of the the current software from ASUS to recover it. I wanted to try CM11 so I followed the directions to get the right version of TWRP installed. I noticed that it was really slow at stuff like wiping cache and dalvik, so I decided to reflash TWRP through ADB instead of a zip file.

All went well and I got into android and went into TWRP to see if everything went okay. I'm in TWRP, but I cannot do anything. Only system will mount and it says I am not rooted and wants to install supersu. If I reboot or power off it just goes back into recovery. Doing the power + vol down will not get me into the bootloader and will instead just power cycle at the ASUS logo.

Any idea on how to fix this, or did I just royally brick my tablet?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
When you first reboot back into TWRP, try running fastboot commands. You may be able to reflash your recovery, or follow Buster's recovery method from there on.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjk639:
I just get stuck at waiting for device. Is there a section I am supposed to be in? Or do I do it from the home screen for twrp? I checked device manager and it does have Transformer listed in other devices.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
Use the reset pin on the SD card side and then reboot back into TWRP and try with "fastboot devices"
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjk639:
Where do I find "fastboot devices"?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
As in the command:

fastboot devices

Else you could try:

adb reboot bootloader

from the ADB in TWRP and then try fastboot commands.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjk639:
It's not finding anything and ADB sideload fails. I'm doing the fastboot commands from the fastboot folder I have been using with other fastboot stuff for the TF300.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
hmm idk. Im guessing you flashed the wrong version of TWRP, which has ended up in a brick for most users, but they had fastboot access and could later recover it using this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12. You dont seem to have either ADB or fastboot, and TWRP is in a non working state. You could try reinstalling your fastboot and ADB drivers with the universal naked drivers, and then retrying ADB reboot bootloader and fastboot.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjk639:
All fixed!

Here is what I did.

1.) Installed naked drivers following the guide at the link provided above. This allowed me to get into the bootloader, but I was unable to successfully flash anything.

2.) So, I followed this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12

Probably lost all my user data, but worth it for a working tablet.

HUGE thanks to cmendonc2 for the help and ultimately leading me to the correct solution.

[LG G Flex] N3M3SYS:
Hi, maybe a silly question, but if I root my F430L, would I be able to receive OTA updates normally? I'm not interested to flash any other ROM, just some mods.

Thanks in advance, great explained guide!
[LG G Flex] autoprime:
most official OTA updates from a carrier patch the current files found in /system rather than replacing all of them entirely(at least in many cases)... because of this.. the OTA update will check each and every stock system file to make sure it has been unmodified. If you modify any of the stock files this would cause the OTA to most likely fail.

What you could do is make backups of the files you do choose to update.. then you can restore the backups when it's time to OTA update. Also, you can add modded files that are not part of /system and this will not mess with the OTA. The OTA only cares about the original system files... not new files you have added(that have not altered the original system files themselves).

tl;dr

you can root and still accept OTA updates as long as no original /system files have been altered and you still have stock recovery(you didnt install twrp/cwm). :good:
[LG G Flex] N3M3SYS:
Thank you for the extensive clarification, I appreciate it!

I am helping a friend out by rooting his Vzw g2. I am very familiar with unlocking/rooting phones and have messed with many models before. This root method seems pretty straight forward.

The question I have: is there anything else I am going to have to do before rooting via this method? I am familiar with unlocking bootloaders first and I read that this one is still locked.

Here is a pic of the software info its running.

I greatly appreciate all the help!

[LG G Flex] PhantomThiefX:
I know right? There is just so much bloat ware on this beautiful phone. It makes her feel bloated and unattractive to the consumer, but now that she is rooted now you can get rid of that bloat, she begs to remind you that not only issue strong and fast. She has curves in all the right places to fit next to you in such comfortable and sexy ways....

And that got way weirder than I intended but sometimes it's just better to leave what you wrote the way you wrote it and maybe it will make someone laugh or feel better about their day.

[LG G Flex] PhantomThiefX:
Ok so I pushed the CWM 6.0.4.5 to the D950 using the terminal emulator and it looked like everything ran just fine and I even booted into recovery one and restarted the system with no issue. But when I went back to install my AOSP ROM when she was running through the fast boot scripts she got stuck and I had to force a reboot. So I am sorry that I called out working when I didn't double check, that was my bad. But if anyone knows the CWM guys I would love to try and help get this working.

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

Oh I guess I could give you the code I used to tell me if I did it right in the first place.

I first put su to get super user and when the # came up I typed:

dd if=/storage/emulated/0/recovery-clockwork- 6.0.4.5-swipe- zee.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery

---------- Post added at 09:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------

It shouldn't make a difference if I stored the img on the emulated 0 and ran it from there should it?
[LG G Flex] autoprime:
for those who asked about recovery.. I'm not up on that matter.. but I assume shelnutt2 is taking care of automating all the things in his FreeGee app. For those who run freegee and have it not supported... I think there's a way to have it send your aboot.img to him thru the app.. it might even do it automatically not 100%... but once he has the aboot for every phone he can set it all up correctly.

FreeGee will come in handy down the line when people take different OTA updates... loki patches may need to be different per OTA.. or even downgrading the aboot after the OTA so that loki still works at all(it will most likely be blocked in all 4.4 updates.. if its not already).

As for OTA after root... I try to stay away from OTA's unless I'm 100% stock... but you should be able to do the OTA as long as no custom recovery is installed.. and no system file has been modified. When an OTA runs.. it does an md5 check(or something similar) against all the files it's patching/updating and even one missing can cause the OTA to fail. Of course each carrier does its OTA update package differently so results may vary.

Be careful of OTAs in the future... for NOW they all seem to allow downgrading... but that doesn't mean a future OTA update won't be able to block downgrades. LG already has the system in place to block em.. but for now chooses not to block them(unlike samsung phones on ATT/Verizon). The last thing you want is for an OTA to not only stop loki from working.. but to block downgrades as well. If that were to happen.. you're stuck with root at best.

Remember.. if you're rooted and have a custom recovery.. you can simply flash a custom stock rooted rom in recovery once a dev puts one together after an OTA and you won't have to worry about any funny business. It's all about options :)

Also.. for those that are rooted and an OTA pops up.. please pull the update.zip and upload it for me so I can keep root updated for as many firmware versions as possible. Not always... but often.. root changes per fw version.

I've seen a few ppl say root doesnt work... tho I see at least one screenshot of the script working on linux... so it should be fine in osx as well. Only thing I havent seen confirmed is the windows .bat file.. but I dont see why it wouldnt work.. tho its possible I botched the script somewhere(I was rushing to get it out.. had other things to do today).

I know for a fact windows bat works for a ton of other devices with no errors.. and the only line i changed in the script is the line for the D950 file to be pushed.

But I always say.. manual method is my method of choice and should always work. And at the same time you see what's going on. Script can speed things up tho. The script also backs up your EFS partitions. BACK UP YOUR EFS IF IOROOT DIDNT ALREADY!!! efs partitions are named modemst1.img and modemst2.img . You will be sorry down the line if EFS gets corrupted and you never made a backup... it only takes a moment to back them up and store em in your email or cloud.

Whoo hoo lucky me....I managed to finagle my way into the stock recovery and hard reset and it cured my bootloop. Id like to add its a pain in the arse to get this phone into recovery with the buttons on the back. Ill see if it retained root and update here. now I get to redo ALL of my stuff go me haha

Update: Root is retained through hard reset. So had my DPI change so it had to be something else which caused my bootloop. Disaster averted this time.
[LG G Flex] PhantomThiefX:
If you haven't gotten Titanium Backup Pro it is well worth the money.
[LG G Flex] Bladerunner1825us:
yea thats one of my default apps usually. I hadnt had root long enough to set my back ups when my bootloop happened though so it was just a bad situation. Itll be real nice when we get custom recovery and I can set a nandroid.
[LG G Flex] PhantomThiefX:
Oh tell me about it I am trying to look through some of the Korean TWRP stuff to see if I can figure out how they work. I'm having a lot of fun trying to figure this stuff out it would be nice if I could find a tutorial to help wade through these murky waters of mods.

There shouldnt be a problem as long as the drivers allow the device to list in adb. Ya could aways try to run root.bat incompatability mode maybe? Or run the script the manual way?
