Hi edorner,

i have a problem on my sdcard. my butterfly s can't mount or detecting the sdcard after i have tried a TWRP backup, not sure it was been encrypted or i have done something wrong during backup. And, i can't c any backup files in sdcard or internal storage. no selection in "settings>storage>sdcard". whats the actual causes that might effecting the folders disappeared? thx in advanced!
[HTC Butterfly S] TheCount91:
Hey guys, I just upgraded to 4.4.2 and I'm really hating it so far. Unable to move files around my own SD card, phone turns unresponsive or hangs every couple of minutes.. not fun.

Tried getting S-off and root so I can flash to a custom rom, but after issuing this command: "/data/local/tmp/temproot"

I get this:

[*] Attempting to aquire root. This will take 5-10 minutes, be patient

error in setsockopt().

Failed to get prepare_kernel_cred address.

Failed to get commit_creds address.

Failed to get ptmx_fops address.

Failed to setup variables.

If it helps, there is no actual /data/local folder on the SD card even though I issued the push commands. Or am I mistaken and push doesn't copy the files to the phone?
[HTC Butterfly S] koniiiik:
In order to flash a custom recovery and custom ROMs, you don't need S-OFF, just unlocking the bootloader via HTCdev is sufficient, however, that will wipe all your user data.

Looks like the temproot you're trying to use tries multiple exploits, but all of the vulnerabilities they are using have been already fixed. That most likely means you won't get the temproot to work, although it's possible that running it multiple times might yield success.

As for the last paragraph, /data/local is not on your SD, it's inside the internal filesystem and without root access, you can't even list the files within. It's there (otherwise you wouldn't be able to actually run the temproot command), but you won't be able to find it with any filesystem browser (unless you manage to root your device).

You can see that the su call failed. The character at the end of the prompt didn't change from '$' to '#'. Also, immediately after the su command, the prompt displays '1|shell@dlxpul', where the '1' at the beginning means the su command exited with an error status.

You may have failed to confirm the su command on-screen; so far every su binary I tried displayed a dialog asking for confirmation even for shells started via adb shell.

Firewater require a active internet connection (wifi or data) on your Butterfly
[HTC Butterfly S] GTI WR6:
Hi edorner

Thanks for your the guidelines.

I have question on point number 8. What do you exactly mean by: Copy the SU binary to the root of your memory card and install the card in your device? This is what I have done for that. I downloaded su.zip from your link, extracted the su file insided it and copied it to the root of my external sd card (through dropbox pc -> phone). I did not install anything, since I am not clear what I have to install.

I continue to follow the instructions anyway and get stuck here /data/local/tmp/firewater. Firewater cannot install blah blah blah....

I am guessing, this is related to the su file not being installed?

Will appreciate your or anyone's help.

Thanks.
[HTC Butterfly S] cramtebreg:
Hi guys,

as many other geeks, i am stuck in a rooted but Tampered unlock device.

why ??? I hope the answer is in the Hboot 1.57.000 problem and the affected kernel .mine is "3.4.10-g6650caroot@abm018#1SMP PREMPT"

the thing is when asked by all the différent methods there is a conflict in the kernel :

those methods (which are not working yet) are guru , firewer or rumrunner.

I tried to use other kernel with firmware extracted on the net but still stuck.

So is their a possibilty to change this Hboot 1.57.000 to release this S-OFF as originally my device was rooted by the HTCdev method ???

waiting for some news on that specific point.

regards
[HTC Butterfly S] migascalp:
You need S-OFF for that
[HTC Butterfly S] cramtebreg:
The only problem is the Hboot: which is stuck on version 1.57.000

and this version is NOT allowed to be S-OFF ed

as said above, I tried different methods like Rumrunner , Guru, or firewater but almost still the same answer

rumrunner says fatal download error , firewater says kernel anti firewater and guru brick the device

So the question I tried with different Rom stock OR maximus but UNABLE to S-OFF

any real idea to sort the problem ???
[HTC Butterfly S] migascalp:
I do not know if it works for BS but you can try:

[Android][HTC S-OFF] SunShine for modern HTC devices
[HTC Butterfly S] cramtebreg:
I already try it but same mess and always remain in S-ON on Hboot 1.57.000 for a Butterfly S

an example on the rom stock unable to get an access on the ext Sd I tried to change the platform.xml for this script but even with the root I am not able to change it

the only possibility is to use the last maximus Hd 13.0 to have a normal use of everything but still S-on and not a stock rom

just a shame this Hboot 1.57.000 ......
[HTC Butterfly S] cramtebreg:
after some research I find something new on the S-OFF problem

just to review it:

I am running with the same Mess concerning the H boot 1.57.000. tampered unlocked and rooted via HTC dev

after different methods like Firewater, Guru, Rumrunner .... I am still in S-ON.

for Firewater NOW the message generated is " your Kernel is an ANTI-firewater"

just to help some of you ( and me ) =>

My Bs was bought in Hong Kong all manipulation after rooting was made on different ROM ( stock, 4.3, 4.4, maximus hd13 ) or via standard OTA " MR_hTC_Asia_HK"

I found also that original kernel have been edit by Htc Dev here=> http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads

So NOW, I will try a downgrade again on a 4.3 or 4.2 and check to re affect the original kernel from Hk to see the result message on firewater ...... crossing my finger !!!!!!!

[HTC Butterfly S] bulletproof_78:
Any updates, mate?

Cos I'm like stuck with *Tampered* and *unlocked* but with S-ON & No ROOT.

Decided to root only when already updated to 4.4.2 Sense 6.

Firewater, rumrunner don't seem to work. Not sure what I did wrong.

Still scouring the web for answers.

Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC Butterfly S] hamba:
I am in desperate of some assistance here since I need to send in my phone for camera module servicing (warranty ends next week !).

I was on stock (4.22), rooted and S-OFF. I have since restored, changed the necessary flags and unrooted.

When I tried to revert to S-ON using command "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" I got this error message

"(bootloader) partition sbl2 signature error

(bootloader) writesecureflag: partitions siganture failed"

I appreciate any help from experts here. The HBOOT is 1.54 by the way. Thanks in advance.
[HTC Butterfly S] Rubman:
Alright I need some assistance here, can't seem to get temproot working

I get this message:

[HTC Butterfly S] Arjun Chatterjee:
Same over here.....

Has anyone with 1.57Hboot successfully S-Offed?
[HTC Butterfly S] koniiiik:
If you can't get temproot, you can always unlock via htcdev, flash TWRP and root from there.

You are already unlocked, you'll need root first to get firewater to work. After you flash root through TWRP, try firewater. If it doesn't work on the first attempt, try again, on my phone it took about five attempts before it successfully achieved S-OFF.

I believe I have seen someone report success with firewater even with the new HBOOT. It may take a few attempts, though.

Currently I'm using htc butterfly s running on android 4.4.2. After the update I found that the battery drain really fast and can't making changes on my sd card content(it said it is 4.4.2 policy)

So I would like to seek ur advice whether I should root n downgrade it to 4.2.2 or root n upgrade to 4.4.4 or even 5? My major concern is able to change my sd card content

Does 4.3 having this unable to change sd card content problem? Because I actually quite like the gallery style of htc 4.3

After I read ur instruction there is quite a lot of thing that I don't really understand such as kernel, rom, s-off etc, u mind explain it briefly? (I'm new to these things n afraid that I will brick my phone accidentally ><)

Sorry for making such a long question. Thx in advance

Hi! My name is Recoder. I recently brought a new Google Nexus 5 (16GB Black) and have a Tata Docomo 3G Connection (India).

I would actually like to Reverse Tether my Phone (so as to get my PC Highspeed internet on my phone, since the mobile network is a bit choppy at times, and the connection times out very frequently). But in order to reverse tether (without Root), I need to get my Phone recognized as a Tethered Mobile on my PC.

I am actually a beginner in Tethering. :p

1. I connected the Phone to PC via USB, and clicked on USB Tethering. (it says tethered), but my PC keeps on installed Remote NDIS Driver forever and finally says Driver not installed nor does it recognizes my Phone. (It Gets Recognized as a PTP, MTP Device)

2. I have USB Debugging Enabled (don't know whats that for). Disabling it does not make any difference.

3. I tried the Google USB Driver but it does not have the driver for Nexus 5, and with usb debug enabled, it comes as a Samsung Android ADB Composite Device.

So Please help my how to Tether my Phone (Step by step if possible, since its my first time)

I don't want to root my new Nexus.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Radowitz:
Hello everyone,

I just joined this forum and i need some help.

I've got a very wierd problem with my samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0

Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 GT-P3110 model.

Android: ver. 4.1.2

So the story behind my tablet is that my dad bought it when he working in another country,when he came back he told me that he had a broken galaxy tab 2 and he asked me to try to fix it,the problem he reported was that the tablet sometimes restarts,alot of programs have crashes and the wierdest thing is that,when I turn it off and then turn on the device (or simply restart it) the system is restored to some earlier state, this includes:

1. Apps I've deleted are still installed.

2. Widgets or app shortcuts on 'home' pages are still on their old place though I've rearranged them.

3. Same with wallpapers.

4. Same with settings.

So i tried the following:

1. Factory reset + cache clean. Even though it is supposed to be a full system wipe, it doesn't work.

2. Reinstalling a Stock ROM via ODIN. Doesn't work either and it takes about an hour to do...it says it was successful but it doesn't change anything in the tablet.

Also there is a notice in android recovery, which states:

did not match sized '/system/csc/common/system/csc/feature.xml' (no data available)

This device wasn't rooted.

So i you would ask you guys for some help,thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] njstein:
My line of thought is that if you do root it, you can format the system partition which would more than likely fix this issue. But like I said, more than likely, there's no guarantee because it might be a hardware issue. Have you considered sending it in for repair? Since it's not rooted they would do it. If you don't care to send it in and are just trying stuff to see if you can get it working again, then rooting it wouldn't hurt anything. But that's your choice.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Radowitz:

I just tried it,saldy it didn't work even though odin said it passed,the tablet remains the same,same apps ect.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] njstein:
OK, so here's where just rooting won't help. You have two options: 1) Find the stock ROM at Samsung and have it on your SD card. Or 2) choose another ROM. Whichever you choose is up to you. You're going to have to format your system in the custom recovery, by doing this your tab is wiped of all info including the stock ROM. If you format system you won't be able to boot into your tab without flashing another ROM after. If I'm repeating stuff you know, I apologize. You'll need the ROM you choose on your external sd card, because you'll want to completely format everything (except your ext sd). If you know all this, try it out and see if it helps.
