[Samsung Galaxy Mega] moosiemooses:
Once it reboots download ota then kingo root
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MikeyLee:
I thought I had to kingo first then OTA? Or do you mean the OTA root keep app?

I'm rooted, running the OTA Root keeper app and the device is downloading it's updates. I should keep Root right?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] moosiemooses:
Yessir
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MikeyLee:
Cool then when it's updated I can flash recovery and should be set. Thanks again for your help

NP. Keep me posted. Sorry for short replies. 6 month old...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MikeyLee:
No worries. Been there. Out of curiosity I wonder if anyone has tried Xposed. I'm going to try to do a system dump when this is updated and see if someone can deodex it and make a flashable zip for us.

It wont install the update cause the device status is custom. For JB I dont know of a fix
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] moosiemooses:
Factory reset again then ota again

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Is this for the L600? If yes, I can make a flashable zip of the system and kernel alone. Bootloader will be untouched and hence no knox worries. Don't know about root though.

Yes sir, NA7 is the latest. My device says official. You can Deodex this and do a flashable zip?

[MENTION=2764219]MikeyLee[/MENTION],

The ROM is being uploaded to my mega folder here. At my upload speed, its gonna take a very long time, 4 hours as of now.

Click the download link from my signature and select SPH-L600 STOCK FIRMWARE folder. The Modem is uploaded separately as a Odin flashable tar file. Use the procedure below to flash the modem file.

Use Odin v3.04

Untick Autoreboot

Flash modem

Reboot once again into Download Mode using (Vol Down plus Home button combi)

Flash Modem once more

Once done,unplug then reboot device manually.

If this doesn't work, try repeating the flash process again while rebooting manually and with auto-reboot option turned off.

All knox related software has been removed. I have added the Superuser apk to the data partition instead of the system partition. Check if root works. Any issues, let me know. Md5's are given below.

Sweet thanks! I will download and give this a try this evening. Do you have the file sizes so I know that they are finished uploading? Also in the ZIP is that a flashable or is there a tar file in it to flash in Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Both uploaded.

Modem file is 48.3 MB. ROM is 1.21 GB, flashable from recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MikeyLee:
Thanks bud. I'll give it a shot and pray I dont lose root. Did you debloat it at all or just deodex it?

Quick question. For phils recovery is that flashable or is it to be done in Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Hi..Philz recovery can be done with odin (tar file) and can be flashed in the recovery (zip file)..just choose the one you need. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MikeyLee:
Thanks!

---------- Post added at 08:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 PM ----------

I just noticed the zip to have says MK1. You did that one and not the NA7? **Edit** It would not flash

---------- Post added at 09:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 PM ----------

I also lost Wifi after flashing the modem. Any idea how to fix this? I have to have Wifi
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Silesh.Nair:
Just flash back your MK1 and you'll be back to normal. What did you mean by zip not flashing? And why did you flash modem before flashing the rom.

or

send me the NON-HLOS.bin file from MK1 and i'll create a Odin flashable modem for you...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MikeyLee:
One sec. I think I might have found the problem on my end. ***Edit*** Nevermind it wasnt what I thought it was, Where is the NON-HLOS.bin file located? When I try to flash the zip it just sits and does nothing.

---------- Post added at 10:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

Ok looks like everything is working. It would not flash in stock recovery and philz recovery would not flash in stock so I odin'd that and flashed your Deodex ROM. Best of all it's updated to NA7 and it did in fact keep Root. What what you put together, a lot of people would probably find it useful. You should do up a thread specifically for Sprint version. Thanks for all your help.

Steps I did.

Flashed Philz Recovery in Odin

Flashed the Modem

Flashed the Rom

Good to go and root stuck

Hey guys I am having the same problem but ONLY when running the CM11 rom on my Sprint Mega. Other issues include screen not calibrating properly for landscape and portrait modes. Wifi works correctly. I'm not sure what to do in a different forum I had read that I needed to copy some files over from the stock system library over to the CM11, but the files the person was requesting for me to move do not exist in the stock rom. I really want CM11 on my phone. What do I need to do???
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] solarwinggx:
Hey guys

So my aunt recently got an upgrade from S3 to S4 from at&t and she decided to give her S3 to me (took out sim card and put it in her s4). the thing is i already have nexus, so i thought to my self why not turn it into a tablet? i use tmobile anyway so i cant use the phone. is there a program out there that can disable the phone part of the s3 reversibly? if not is there a way to disable phone tracking? (she's very nosy and i dont want to know where i am when im not home).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Sounds pretty sketchy to me! It is possible to use the phone on T-Mobile, and even if u don't, why would u need a "program" to disable the "phone part" and "phone tracking", when there isn't even a Sim card in it, and it is not activated on any network? :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] solarwinggx:
because my aunt is a nosy person, she likes to find ways of finding out where ive been. i want to disable anyway of tracking the phone so i can have my privacyl which is why i want to turn it into a tablet. she took her sim card out and put it in her S4. the phone doesnt have a sim card right now because she is using her old one on a new device.

all im asking for is a way to turn the s3 essentially into a tablet (like a nexus 7 without the phone part). Is there a program out there than can achieve that?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
Your aunt already did that, she removed the sim card, now it's a tablet because the phone don't work.

You absolutely can use that phone on T-Mobile if you want to, there are some mods that may need to be made(for data depending on the area you use the phone in T-Mobile is in the process of updating their network) depending on which version of Android you have depends on the approach to run on the wcdma aws band.

If you're that concerned about tracking maybe you shouldn't have any electronic devices, social media accounts, xda account and etc. They're all trackable.

For the really paranoid though you can turn the gps off, go to settings, security, device administrators and make sure that there are no boxes checked. If they're all unchecked then the only way for someone else to find the phone is for you to tell/show them where it is...

Just my $0.02 this whole thing sounds shady to me. Even if the imei is blacklisted as stolen no one cares enough to come find it that bad, there is no program that will remove phone portions of the phone to turn it into a tablet without breaking functionality of things like wifi which would defeat the entire purpose of what you want to do...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] solarwinggx:
oh really? but i can still call 911 on my phone even if the sim card isnt there though so isnt it stlil a phone?

whats an imei?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
Since you are so concerned with it just sell the phone and buy a tablet. Problem solved...

Imei is an internal serial number the phone company uses to determine the services you qualify for If the phone is reported lost or stolen the imei number gets black listed and regardless of the network you attempt to use it on or the SIMCARD you attempt to use in it the phone simply will not work...

Of course you can still call 911. It is a phone. All phones are capable of that, even my early 90's phones will. Though they can't even be activated on anyones network for use...

Black listed phones are capable of calling 911 and only 911, but be warned as soon as you dial 911 the gps and network triangulation are both activated so they can track where the call is coming from.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cooro:
This is the most retarded post I have ever read. It's pretty obviously he stole/found a phone and decides to find a way to disable any parts of the phone that can trace his location. In addition, he also joined the forum recently and this is his first post. Sketchy as ****.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
I agree. My Point is he cannot disable the "phone" portion of it without making it unusable for the purpose he wants it, needs to go troll somewhere else.

Is it possible to put all the Moto X specific features into one flashable zip that will work on any rom? Basically I want to explore other roms, but I don't want to lose Touchless Control or Active Notifications. If it hasn't been done yet, I'm sure some brave soul will figure it out eventually.

There's similar apps that replace active notifications and some Roms do have it built in to the ROM but for touchless control no and probably never will be ported

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jayjam99:
Started having issues with my mobile data yesterday after flashing the new sense 5.5 ROM. (By NO MEANS am I saying that a ROM broke my phone!!)

If im not connected to a wireless AP I can not browse the web. I still receive text messages and emails but thats it.

In settings mobile data shows ":disconnected". I can turn it off and back on and it will stat e"turning on" for a few seconds, followed by "disconnected".

I tried to go back to sense 5 4.3 (i didnt have any issues while running that one) But it would not connect to mobile data either.

Took a drastic step and ran VipersRUU. Got back to factory and am still having issues with mobile data!

Re installed the firmware and radios. No help there either. Airplane mode does nothing. Power cycles, nope.

I done some google research and keep seeing "APN setting" mentioned.

How do i get to these settings? Im sure it is a ##code#, but Im not sure which one.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

[General Questions and Answers] Melikey:
Hello I have an unusual problem. I am modifying the ROM for my Rockchip device (rk3066). I want the firmware image to flash already rooted. I have installed busy box, su binary, and Superuser.apk. When I flash the ROM then use Rootchecker, it says I have root access. However, when I use an app that requires root it cannot gain root access. Can anyone explain to me what is going wrong?

Please be very basic in any explanation as I am a super noob trying to learn.

Thanks in advance for any help given. It will be very appreciated.

There might be something wrong with the superuser app itself. Try using SuperSU.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

Does it work?
[General Questions and Answers] xsenman:
Basically you need to tick "prompt", if you had ticked "deny for all" , superuser will not prompt you for answer when an app needs root, so have it on "prompt" in super user settings, If superuser or SU icon is in apps drawer , open it and check its settings menu.

How to get Root Access?

a) Update SU Binaries, reboot

b) Check Development Option for Root Access settings or Performance settings for Superuser Settings

c) Flash Super Su Zip in Recovery

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] MattFromElkford:
Hi.

I have a Telus (AT&T) HTC One and after having it unlocked for almost a year, I've decided I want to flash a CM Rom on it because the stock firmware is holding the phone back.

Problem is, I'm running CWM 6.0.3.2, and apparently that causes issues when trying to flash new ROMs. I tried to flash a few but kept getting status 7 errors.

I tried to flash a new CWM recovery to my phone, but my pc was just waiting to detect my phone forever. So, now I feel I'm out of options. After lurking through many threads, I couldn't find any answers.

Just hoping you guys can help me out.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Paulicat:
Hey all,

I was looking for the older cm10 builds but I couldn't find any downloads.

So I just grabbed the source and compiled it for myself.

Works really well and in my opinion, our a700's just suffer too much lag on anything newer than 4.1.2.

If you haven't tried the older 4.1.2 roms, this is a great starting point.

This build is not my work, pawitp is the dev, I just grabbed source and compiled because I couldn't find a zip to download.

If there are known places where the older roms can still be found I will gladly remove this post if someone notifies me.

Anyways, just figured I'd share since it worked out well.

rom link:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407571859

I used this gapps:

http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip

I'm also compiling an AOKP 4.1.2 rom but it's not done yet.

If it works well, I'll share the file also.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I'm feeling adventurous. I'll try it out and see how it compares with a built-from-stock ROM.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Paulicat:
The 4.1.2 AOKP rom I'm working on is even better, just need a bit more time to fine tune it.

The A700 was never an AOKP device, the A500 was but there was enough differences to make it a bit of a challenge.

But I'm curious how someone else sees this so I appreciate the feedback!

I honestly didn't expect anyone to want to try these, I just figured to share them anyways.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
Tried it out last night. Gotta say, though, I went back to a stock-based ROM after a couple hours. There wasn't anything wrong with it, really, but I didn't want to reformat my SD card again (the book I'm reading before bed is on it). It was quick and responsive. Everything seemed to work, but I had some issues with the combination of Flash & Lightning Browser + that I'd never had before. Flash was fine in the stock browser, though...Just gave me the weird 1 second playtime in any other browser.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Paulicat:
Thanks for trying it out, honestly never really expected anyone to bother!

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by having to reformat your sdcard though?

Ah, I don't use flash at all so I wouldn't have seen that problem...
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I found that in order for my card to work in any CM ROM, it has to be formatted as a Primary partition (found that out with another device with another card just last month)...Right now it's set as Logical which works just fine in stock-based ROMS, but I've got three years of data and random junk saved on it. I really am so lazy as to not want to back it up and format it again.

When it's formatted wrong, it causes a force close when you go to Storage in Settings, and it cannot be mounted. That's really the only problem I had, and it is something I know the solution to...So...No problems with your ROM. Heh.

It was very stable, and it was snappier than stock. I've not tried CM11, so I can't compare with that.

I was just curious if anyone out there has Rooted their T-mo or Other carrier G Flex. I love aspects of Rooted devices (Vibrant, Sensation, Galaxy 2,3 various other devices) however I have found that with a lot of the newer devices that are coming out, I haven't really felt the need to root. Are there any real advantages to rooting my G Flex, or if Im happy with it should I just leave it be?

Plus, I might wait a bit and see if by some miracle, kitkat gets pushed out for this guy, in the next week or 2,and I dont want to have to unroot it, in order to get that.

I know the chances aren't good for that, but, I like to learn about a new phone for a week or 2, then decide what I want to do with it, so I am not in a big hurry to root; there is no custom recovery yet, and of course, no roms, so I can be patient.
