Yeah, I saw that when I searched. That is basically what I'm looking for. The thing is, I could have sworn that at one point I had an app that had proximity built in as standard. Maybe it was just for rooted phones, I don't remember...

I hadn't actually used it back then for proximity, but I thought it was there to be used.

To answer your question, Yes! With proximity, you could set your phone for the normal day to day operation. Then for example, at bed time, you could place your phone into a charging dock that has a peel and stick NFC tag on it's face, and when the phone gets near enough, the tag would activate the tasks you have programmed into the tag. For example, you could turn off WiFi, turn off the ringer, Turn the brightness down to minimum, set a wake alarm/volume/tone, etc... Then, in the morning, when you remove the phone from the dock and it loses proximity with the NFC tag, the tasks will revert to their "daytime" mode, and the brightness will come back up, the WiFi will turn back on, etc...

I realize that all of this can be done by setting the tag to "toggle" functions in that the first swipe of the tag could turn WiFi off, and the next swipe of the same tag would turn it back off, but obviously I don't want to "toggle" by using multiple swipes. I want proximity. (another way would be to use two separate tags near each other and one would be the daytime tag and the other would be for nighttime...)

for the car, I want to turn brightness down a bit (I do most of my driving at night), turn on bluetooth (to sync with my handsfree device), turn WiFi off while driving, start my music app and play a specific playlist, turn the volume up to max (my cassette adapter has very low volume, and the phone automatically lowers the volume when the headphone jack is plugged in), and announce each thing as it is happening (yes that's currently an option)....
[LG Optimus G Pro] phamtung8xhd:
i dont use NFC
[LG Optimus G Pro] andygold:
Thanks for posting your helpful and insightful comments. They truly add to this thread!!

Anyone else have any thoughts as to whether or not an app exists that allows NFC to work with a proximity setting?
[LG Optimus G Pro] bogaggas:
Might this help you?

I understand that what you're probably looking for is an app to "program the NFC tag" itself but I hope you find this helpful until you find what you are looking for.

You can try using an app like Llama (the location aware Brazilian camel ...) to set different profiles (with settings and all) for home, work, CAR,etc. Have Llama identify the Areas first (Don't worry about car at this point just tweak the settings for the car profile). In the events tap you can define a condition (NFC tag detected) to an action (activate profile A: Car).

For when you arrive to your destination and want your phone settings to change to suite your new location i.e. activate a different profile, you can create an event -also in the events tab- triggered when the condition (Enter/In Area)is met. Llama will then alter your settings to the ones you have set for the new area you arrived to i.e. change Car profile to Home or Work. The reason why you have to create another event to change profiles after you get out of the car, after NFC tag disconnected, is that Llama can't detect when a certain NFC tag is disconnected -my understanding- so you have to create a new trigger to bring about a new event.

Keep us informed of your progress as I am really interested in Automation myself. Cheers.

I'm trying to flash something a update.zip package that contains su and busybox programs, and I know what you think, I'm rooting a device.

I've googled and there's the adb shell and fastboot programs that can help me but, how can flash it by commands?

Copy pasting the updater-script commands and the busybox installer too?

Please help me out! D:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkseas:
Install su by using "fastboot flash update.zip" without recovery ROM (CWM or TWRP)?

Similar for me.

I'd like to install su and busybox as well on my Lenovo A8 (A5500-F, A8-50) tablet with Android KitKat (4.4.2).

However there's no CWM or TWRP for my device and I read other tools do not work.

But can I install a file called "update.zip", containing su, superuser and busybox (and installation script) using fastboot?

Like: "fastboot flash update.zip" ?

Using a file like this one:

Any ideas if this should work?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
No, that definitely wouldn't work. You have to have the bootloader unlocked and most likely if that was possible then there would already be a custom recovery for it...

Hello guys. I want to root my s4 on 4.3 tryed to find qbkings method but it looks like it doesn't support 4.3? All I want is stock root so I can get free WiFi teather. That's it nothing more, nothing less. Thanks in advance guys!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: rooting

If you are on 4.3 baseband and don't mind the possibility of voiding warranty then

here is the direct download link for cf-autorooter by chainfire for your phone:

http://download.chainfire.eu/316/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.zip

Unzip into empty folder and use Odin which is in the zip to flash the TAR.MD5 file.

Good luck!

This has nothing to do with wifi tether, this will simply root the phone.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slimjonesy:
I know this is just root, but didn't know if it came with tether. Any suggestions on where our how to get tether? I've rooted before on other phones and installed custom roms with tether built in, but this is for a friend who cannot get internet in his home so he uses his 3g connection off his phone as a tether. He used it on his s2 for years and it worked fine. Now he upgraded to an s4 and needs his internet back.lol.

Thanks again guys!!

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Kenneth196:
Hello all,

My Photon Q is rooted with the stock ICS ROM. I'd like to update it to at least JB cause I have a few apps that require 4.1. I've been away from the mod company for a while - what's the best way to update while keeping my current apps and settings? I have an OTA pending, if it would be easier to unroot, update via OTA, and root back (but not sure if unroofing would factory reset the phone).

Thanks for any and all help!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] AndyYan:
Unrooting doesn't reset the phone, but for safety, make a full nandroid backup of your phone's current state via recovery.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schilly:
So...I first started rooting and custom rom'ing back in the Samsung Fascinate days, flash forward...I sold my s3 because I was in love with what I heard about the HTC One!! Found one on Craigslist in great condition. Dude I had bought it from said it had been rooted and I thought GREAT, saves me the trouble!! Well, I'm confused. I am running a modified 4.3, locked with s-on, and rooted. I am able to boot into TWRP. I cannot figure out the tech of the HTC One and need to know 2 things...1. How is this phone rooted with locked bootloader/s-on? 2. Where can I go from here... Can I flash other rom's through TWRP even though bootloader is locked and s-on? I have read everything I can on xda and still can't make sense of this...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cmlusco:
Sounds like they unlocked it, flashed a custom rom, and then relocked it. I would use firewatter to get unlocked again and s-off. http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/. Not sure if you could flash in that state or not, but im guessing no.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schilly:
Hey thanks! I was sort of guessing that is what happened...but couldn't really find a reason to do that? Is it difficult to hard brick an HTC? I was never concerned with the Samsung or Motorola, I could always get my way back from any issue. So, use firewater to unlock/s-off and then I can return to full stock or whatever?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
Hey I remember you from the Fascinate forums from a while ago... nice to see a familiar face! I had the S4 for a while but just switched to the HTC One. This phone is a beast. I was lucky enough to get mine on 4.2.2 so I just used rumrunner... you got lucky because up until a few days ago 4.3 was locked down. From what I understand so far, once you get S-Off you're pretty safe on flashing anything just like the Fascinate. The danger is in actually getting S-Off but firewater seems to be a fairly safe and easy method. Happy flashing and let me know if you have any questions, although I'm still learning the HTC ropes but I'll do my best
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cmlusco:
It is not likley to hard brick it, but it does happen. Mostly to people who dont pay attention and dont follow instructions well. Just make sure what ever your flashing, is for your phone. There are several varations of the one, and flashing the wrong firmware is just asking for an expensive brick. As long as you can get into the bootloader, there is usually always a fix.

Yeah use firewater and then flash a rom of your choosing. If you just want to be complete stock, you can flash an ruu, and then use firewater to unlock and get s-off if so desired.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schilly:
Hey...HELLO!! I will be sure to ask, thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schilly:
Thank you for your reply...I feel a bit more confident. I follow directions well, so as long as I find a great tutorial I don't see any issues.

so as my phone stands right now, I can just flash a RUU (I think I know what that is, is it hard to find correct one?) and be stock, unrooted? And then I can take the upcoming OTA?

Thanks to you both...I just don't quite get the HTC lingo yet, but I'm a fast learner!!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cmlusco:
Well it depends what version your on. If your on if your on 4.2 yes you can, if your on 4.3 not at the moment, unless you can find a 2.10.605.1 ruu somewhere. I would use firewater to get s-off then you can flash an older ruu and take the otas. If you take the kk ota before you get s-off, you risk the chance of firewater not working, and then your stuck without root untill a new exploit is found.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mmuzzy:
As cmlusco said, I'd probably recommend getting s-off with firewater before an OTA. When 4.3 came out it prevented the existing bootloader unlock tool from working. It was a few weeks before firewater came out and while it works with 4.3 there's no guarantee that it will work with 4.4. Also, you can be S-OFF and take OTAs but flashing a ROM is the safer way to go as far as keeping the ability to run custom recoveries, etc.

EDIT: I didn't realize how much I repeated what cmlusco said. I'll go fade back into the woodwork now. Carry on, nothing to see here. :P
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
Don't even bother waiting for the OTA... I'm on NuSense 4.4.2 and it's awesome. I'm sure it'll be updated when the OTA hits too, but if you want KitKat early just jump right in, the water is fine.

Its pretty easy. first obviously make sure you have debugging enabled then Install this package http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

Then download a recovery IMG from the original dev section and put it in the same folder as where the minimal adb and fastboot package extracted too. Run the batch for minimal that opens a command prompt to that directory.

Type: adb devices(to make sure it sees your phone)

Next: adb reboot bootloader

Next: you will see bootloader options type: fastboot oem rebootRUU (it is case sensitive)

Next: wait for HTC logo on black background to show up and then type: fastboot flash recovery (IMG filename with extension. IE: twrp.IMG)

Example: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Next: fastboot reboot

After it boots up reboot into recovery and see if it changed recoveries although you should know when you fastboot flash if it went. It should tell you successful or fail.

Yes just trying to see if it will take. If it takes then you have a hex edited custom hboot otherwise you will need to run fire water. That looks like stock firmware.
