[General Questions and Answers] fyrcap100:
Okay, where do I start. First, I have an HTC One S (S4) that is/was locked to Cincinnati Bell. The Cincinnati Bell ROM is version 1.84.422.6. The phone is a GSM. I have successfully removed the SP lock, unlocked the bootloader and upgraded the to TWRP 2.1.6. I also have superCID (11111111) and have installed superSU.

Now for my problem. I am switching from Cincinnati Bell and going to T-Mobile here in the USA. I have a T-Mobile US RUU that is version 1.84.531.2. I have attempted to install the new ROM via RUU numerous times and continually receive a 155 error. From what I can tell the RUU is unable to overwrite the current OS. As a matter of fact... I have tried to rename and change permissions on some of the files located in/around root and am unable to do so. I receive a message that indicates the system is Read-Only. I'm assuming this is related to the 155 error that I keep receiving.

I have also noted that the phone is S-on, which I believe might be causing my trouble as well. I downloaded and ran rumrunner in an attempt to gain S-off. Rumrunner went through it's gyrations but was unable to gain S-off.

So... does anyone have any ideas as to how I can:

1) Obtain S-off

2) Install the T-Mobile ROM (possibly through an image (.img) file or other method)

I have searched the web over for a valid T-Mobile image file but have yet to find one. Otherwise, I would have attempted that too by now, Needless to say I'm frustrated at best.

RESOLVED...

I stumbled upon a discussion re: facepalm and the ability to obtain s-off. I followed the facepalm procedure, obtained s-off and the ROM installed without a hitch.

Hellloooo, I noticed that 4.4 touchwiz has been leaked to other variants of the S4 but it'll probably be forever till we get it, or even a leak of it. Correct me if I'm wrong but the other variants are still and S4, so wouldn't it be possible to take the 4.4 leak and add/remove certain things between it and our current touchwiz rom to get it to boot for us? I've done that with Sense before but I had alot of help and I don't know the 1st place to start with Samsung's stuff, someone has to have thought of this yes?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jake5Snooze:
I've tried flashing SGA's Fat'N Creamy ROM (available from goo manager), but with no luck.

Using TWRP (latest version and I think a 2.3 version), I get an "E:Error flashing zip". Using CWM6 6.0.1.9 it says"E:Can't open ... (bad)"

The zip opens fine (in Windows.)

Is there an older recovery I should try or something?

Thanks...
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superboy123:
It is not the problem of the recovery.

It is the problem of the zip fie.

The zip file is broken.

Download 7-Zip and test the archive with 7-Zip.

I also tested it and it gave many errors that files are broken, unknown compression method, etc and finally it stucks at half the progress bar.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jake5Snooze:

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scoots McGee:
I was going through the process of rooting my Verizon G2, which has been much more difficult than previous devices. Anyways, after having issues getting it to boot into recovery, I finally found a video that ran me through the process and got me into TWRP. I backed everything up, made sure I had the ROM and GAPPS on my device, and proceeded to wipe ALL data, including system, as per the instruction for the OP. I go to flash the ROM, and nothing is on the phone.

How can I either get the ROM on the device so I can flash it or get back to stock ROM so I can start over?

Also, for future reference, where did I go wrong?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Sorry in advance for not finding the solution on my own.

There's a thread in General that'll get you back to stock. After that, just reroot, and make sure you're using the latest TWRP to flash ROMs. Or PhilZ, which people say is more consistent.

You can sideload a newer twrp and flash it in twrp. Then you will be able to flasb the rom without error.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue_drt29:
I had this exact same issue and after fixing this issue once, I haven't gotten it again.

You have 2 options;

1) Factory Restore your device

2) ROOT your device, install ROOT Explorer, navigate to / > data > clipboard, select ALL and delete all, than go into your Settings > Applications Manager > All, look for TestServices, than remove updates/clear data. Reboot and everything should be fine.

I opted for option 2 simply because restoring a device sucks and I wanted to root anyways because I missed AdFree, ROOT Explorer, and could not stand the WIFI Notification.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Bob!:
Hello Community,

I tried to install custom recovery using this manual "

wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_serranoltexx

" (<- cannot use the link function, because it's my first post). I followed every step. At point 9 I have to make commands using the cmd. Unfortunately the result is an Error:

Failed to access device. libusb error: -12

I had two insecurities while following the manual:

At point 4 I had to rename the recovery image but I'm not sure what the recovery image is. What I downloaded was a .tar.md5 file within a .zip. Do I have to rename the .zip or the .tar.md5? The renaming causes a change of the file type and I cannot really understand, why they didn't put the right file in that .zip at the beginnig...this step is a bit confusing

To point 5: I deinstalled Kies and the device driver in the Windows operating system. Since I've done this, there are appearing two devices in the zadig.exe when I connect my S4. I installed the zadig driver for both of them.

Im using Windows 7 x64

I hope someone can help me, for this moment I don't know what to do further...

greets
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fdelente:
I don't know about the libUSB error, and I haven't modded a Galaxy S4 mini, but I have installed CM on Galaxy Player. The tar.md5 has to be extracted from the zip; it is in fact a tar.gz file (tar archive compressed with gzip), but you don't have to rename it.

I flashed the Galaxy Player with Odin 3 v. 3.04, after having installed Kies to have the drivers installed. The Player showed in Odin with something like "ID:0 COM"; I then clicked on the "PDA" button, then pointed to the tar.md5, and clicked flashed, and it worked.

Here are my 2 cents :^)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TNCS:
Is your phone rooted? If rooted already it easy! For the most noob method, install ROM Manager from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager and ROM manager will install the CWM for you. From there, its pretty simple.

If it not rooted, that the first thing you'll have to do.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Bob!:
I found out, the .tar.md5 is also a compressed file. If I extract it, I get a file called "recovery.img". At this point it's not very clear what to do. Because there is nothing to rename. And even if you are right, the tutorial would be also wrong. :confused:

This is for installing the custom recovery, that's is the root, isn't it? I had the problem that Heimdall doesn't gets access to the device (lubusb error: -12). It's probably a driver problem.

However, I solved the problem by doing another method using odin. The root was succesfull. Afterwards I will flash the custom rom.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TNCS:
No, custom recovery is not rooting. Not my favourite method but it easy enough, try this: http://www.kingoapp.com/

It a universal root for JB and it will prompt you to install CWM afterwards.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Bob!:
After installing the CWM I rooted the device. I succesfully installed Canogenmod 10.2.1. The Tutorial says explicit, that it only helps for 10.2.x but I want to install the Nightly version which is running at CM version 11. If I could, I would ask this questions in the threat but I'm not allowed yet to post in the developers section. "

Trouble switching services
[LG G Flex] mrphil101:
I can't seem to get my phone to boot into recovery. I do the power-volume up and it boots to a "Hardware key control mode" but it boots to system after that. Am I missing something.

I have the t-mobile LG D959 G FLEX TITAN SILVER KIT. That is how it is listed on the box.
[LG G Flex] justinswidebody:
Turn phone completely off, make sure it is unplugged from the charge cable. Then hold volume down and power together until you see the screen say recovery mode. First it will show the LG splash screen. You must continue to hold it until you see the words recovery mode.
[LG G Flex] mrphil101:
I thought it was power and volume up not down. BUT, it doesn't matter which volume key, they both bring me to the hardware key control window. It stops there to select on off or cancel. From this screen, you have to make a selection which requires you to release the buttons. Once leaving this screen with whatever choice is made it boots up to system. Yes phone is unplugged and a complete shutdown is made.
[LG G Flex] justinswidebody:
I'm on the Sprint version and the way I said gets me into recovery. It's strange that it doesn't work for you. Just to make sure. I start off by holding volume down then I push and hold power with it until recovery mode shows
[LG G Flex] shyam123:
Leave the power button when you see the logo. And continue pursuing rest of the key
[LG G Flex] mrphil101:
These are the instructions from the t-mo user manual:

Power off the device and ensure it is not connected to any USB cables.

At the same time, press and hold the following keys for 8 seconds:

Power key

Volume down key

When the LG Logo is displayed, release and then immediately re-hold the Power key.

When the 'FACTORY HARD RESET' screen displays, release the keys.

Press the Power key to reset or one of the Volume keys to cancel.

Press the Power key to confirm the reset. The reset will start immediately.

Still can't get recovery, so I went into Titanium Backup, and rebooted to recovery from there. Reboots, I see the android with a little diamond kinda thing in his torso for probably less than a second, screen goes black and LG logo pops up and it boots system. Curious if this can be attributed to rooting? Any other ROOTED tmo users confirm they can boot to recovery, please.
[LG G Flex] mrphil101:
I used supsersu to unroot and was able to achieve recovery. Re-rooted and no recovery.????
[LG G Flex] wase4711:
this may be a silly question, but have you flashed CWM or TWRP?(not sure if there are versions for this phone)
[LG G Flex] mrphil101:
No, stock phone except for root, I prefer TWRP and am waiting. This is really a snappy phone and I am happy with it the way it is for now. Been a long time since I had a stock phone, and this one works great so far. Not in any hurry to put a custom rom on it, Not to good with ADB, but I want to make a recovery image.
[LG G Flex] wase4711:
I never had a LG phone before, so I am not sure if your problem getting into recovery comes from the fact you are rooted, but still have a stock recovery instead of a custom one like twrp/CWM..

I cant decide on this phone, the Xperia Z1S, or the note 3; I have to drop Sprint this week because their network sucks and my family cant make calls from the house, and I cant decide which phone to get..

love the way the flex feels and looks, but its 4.2; sony screen is a bit small coming form a One Max and Note 2, and the Note 3 is kinda boring....tons of roms to choose from for the note 3..

Hello guys i am very new to this whole root thing and i wanted to root the evo 3d because stock rom is not fast enough for me

i am a beginner at installing roms and my english is not very good so please dont be too harsh :D

basically my question is what rom is the best for the gsm evo 3d overall

i do not care about the 3d camera i never use it, for me the most important aspects are

1) performance

2) battery life

3) stable build

and yes i now some people asked the same question but those questions are from 2011-2012 and i think there are better roms now

I personally cannot decide between cm 11 and liquidsmooth v3.0 both are by [MENTION=2941594]johnnyslt[/MENTION] (so i hope u too get to read this question )

i heard sense is more ram-hungry and i dont care about sense either i like the clean nexus 5-like design

many roms get updates from time to time but i do not want to do that unless u can update a rom easily

do you always have to do a reboot and all those processes just to update a rom ???

anyway i hope spme of you experienced people can help me deciding :)
[HTC EVO 3D] jekyll86:
No dubt, best rom for evo 3d gsm is cm11 by johnnyslt. So far better then stock one

If you can't decide between liquidsmooth and cm11 try the new cm11 liquidsmooth :P

haha i see what u did there :D

i thought u do not need s-off if u only want to install a cutsom rom but for cm 11 u do need s-off with hboot 1.49xxx

has anybody installed the rom with s-on ??

and if it is neccessary to do s-off, what procedure is better the revolutionary or the juopunutbear process ? or do you know a better method ?

i really appreciate u answering my question thx alot to all of u ::)

[HTC EVO 3D] engine93:
Yeah i guess it comes down to either yas 4 or cm11

what about cool ics ? that any different from yas 4 ? (except cool ics has sense 3.6 ?)

i´d love to root and flash roms on the evo 3d right now but i gotta wait for it to return from the repairment gosh :(
[HTC EVO 3D] the_ranger:
sense 3.6 I use stock rom, i haven't install cool ics, sorry i can't help you.But for cm11, i think it is really awesome rom, it is smooth and steady(i think),only it can't support 3d,that is why these days i change cm to yas4,haha,it is really difficult to choose which is best. if you have time, try by yourself,and i think you will get real fit your style rom.

I've been running cool ICS for over 2 months. It's a very fast and stable rom, that is good for daily use. The camera and sound mods are also very good.

But I think Liquid Smooth is better for you because of the newer Android version. It also uses a clear Nexus 5 like UI.
[Sprint LG G2] xNotta:
I am on complete stock sprint LG g2 and was prompted to install ZVA.

Can I take the OTA and root my phone afterwards without any problems?

Thank you.

EDIT:

Since no one has replied yet, not sure if it's due to my ignorance or the lack of people who know the answer; but here is what I found.

I got some time to go though the IORoot's script and found the following:

:SPRROOT
echo Found Sprint LS980 phone!
echo.
echo Checking OTA version...
for /f %%i in ('.\adb.exe shell getprop ro.lge.swversion') do set OTAVER=%%i
if %OTAVER%==LS980ZV7 GOTO SPRstockRoot
if %OTAVER%==LS980ZV8 GOTO SPRstockRoot
[B][U][COLOR="Red"]if %OTAVER%==LS980ZVA GOTO SPROTARoot[/COLOR][/U][/B]
GOTO SPRNoMatch

This is the OTA.

Am I right to say that IORoot will root the OTA (ZVA)?
