My method utilizes adb too :P. It worked in 4.3 for SS but some members of the forum said it didn't work for DS.

See that's what i mean, both of you are unsure if your methods work.

Gamer649 method is right here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2698534
[Sony Xperia M] gamer649:
I can't see why it wouldn't work on the DS, it's just adb tool. I can't say it will work though as I have SS.

ya it will work with xmd also..but the method i gave is automatic and easy....there wont be mistake made by new user...
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Ok say i followed either one of your methods and my phone rebooted normally, how do i know that it is deodexed?
[Sony Xperia M] gamer649:
Go to /system/app and /system/framework and if there are no .odex files there then you are deodexed, if there is then you aren't.

[MENTION=5010777]ansebovi[/MENTION] when i try your method, i open the kamometool and this is what happens when i press 2: my systemui stops working and i get two errors like device unauthorised. I think its because of the systemui.apk and systemui.odex

.i deleted mine, can you post the default ones for 4.3
[Sony Xperia M] ansebovi:
bro...u should authorize the pc....

go to development settings,revoke usb debugging,..then connect to pc,,see ur phone click yes...

then try....and if u want stock,...do u have ftf of 4.3?

if u have then extract system.sin from ftf using winrar,

open flashtool...tools/sin editor and browse the file..then click extract data..wait for 5 min...u will have system.ext4

then use ext2explorer from here

open it...it will show warning...ignore it...now browse system.ext4 then extract it...
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
My usb debugging is on. Lol
[Sony Xperia M] ansebovi:
see the option below it...click it[revoke usb debugging authorisation]
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Alright i see it now, gonna try again
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Nope, still the same problem
[Sony Xperia M] ansebovi:
did u phone asked for permission?
[Sony Xperia M] ansebovi:
then use that revoke again..open flashtool ...then connect phone to pc...hope it will ask now..
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
I think i know the problem. Everytime i connect my phone to pc, i get a systemui FC. Gonna go back to default.
[Sony Xperia M] paper13579:
Yup it worked after restoring the systemui.apk and systemui.odex to default. Man i used your 4.3 bug fixes, so you should say on the thread that you won't be able to deodex if you if you replace the systemui.apk and systemui.odex with the ones you provided in your links.

BTW,was i supposed to get a lot of warnings and errors in part three of the kamometool? I did, but at the end when everything was finished, it told me that everything is ok.

Hi guys, sorry im from mexico and i have the lg d950 i though that model was the same of the AT&T but i tried to root but nothing works, please anybody can help me :crying:
[LG G Flex] Geners:
Exactly why i haven't updated to KK yet. As soon as an exploit and and root method are figured out, I'm there.
[LG G Flex] Da Kine:
If you updated to KitKat the root method won't work for you. You'll either have to wait until there's a root method available for KitKat or downgrade to 4.2 and root your phone.
[LG G Flex] Bruno_lp:
No, i have JB 4.2.2 but the ioroot doesn´t work, it shows this:

adbd cannot run as root in production builds

error: device not found

You don´t know why happen this?
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
That sounds like you don't have the proper drivers installed, did you install both the adb and LG drivers from the ioroot thread?
[LG G Flex] Bruno_lp:
Yes, i thought that and i reinstall the adb and the lg drivers, you don't think that maybe the reason is that my g flex is telcel and no at&t?

Im sure that the model is the same (D950) but what do you think?
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
Is telcel an international carrier? Or pre paid? Pretty sure if your PHONE MODEL is a D950 then it should work regardless of your carrier.
[LG G Flex] Bruno_lp:
What did you mean with international carrier?

I have a data plan here with telcel that can be the problem?

I have been search specifically this model but with telcel and there is no videos

I recently switched my sm900w8 to the xnote rom and executed the TB app and data zip file, all my apps are on my phone but their data seems not to be added. I switched to this rom before and it did this weird thing where all apps were quitting and then suddenly its fine, but this time I do it, there is no app data. I just ran the app that runs a script to fix the TB restore problem but its still not working. What can I do?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraken77:
Use TB Restore Fixer to fix it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD1031:
I tried that and it did not work. I wiped my device again and flashed the update.zip file again and the same thing happened, apps slowly started to be added to the phone and no data was added.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraken77:
When u backing up ur data did you tick backup data? or only the apps?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD1031:
I am sure that i used the backup user apps and system data. I have no clue why it's not working l and some of the apps that were backed up did not get installed on the phone. I suspect that it never used the backup. Maybe there was nothing in the update.zip.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraken77:
Try transferring your backup.zip tu pc or use es file manager and lets check if it has your apps with the data or not.

I have been doing some research in what the update.zip file is and what I think it is is a file for installing titanium backup on a phone, not for getting your data back. This means that I have lost all of my data.

My Facebook keeps randomly updating even tho I have auto update turned off for all apps. But Thai one still updates. And I think that when it does update its an 8.0 version. Whatever version it is the whole ui changes and I hate it. How can I make the version I like stick? Think every time I reboot it updates, and don't think it's they the play store either that it's getting the update? I don't get any notification of it when it does, it's just there when I open Facebook again.

I never use my FB, only rarely to check a photo or 2 that gets put up of me. Popped on sometime last week to notice an entirely new app layout. No update from Play, no update notification from FB app. Girlfriend, same phone, users FB all day still has old one. Kinda pissed, because the few times i did look at my feed, i wanted it sorted by time, not this 'most popular' BS, and can't find an option in the new app for it.

I just checked and I'm on the 8.0 version, I think I did sign up for the Beta though.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jessbowring:
Beta or not, shouldn't update if auto update isn't selected. This is the only time it's done it. It's extremely annoying cause I HATE the new ui but can't make an older version stick no matter what I do. And just discovered it updates regardless of reboot or not.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TNS201:
Well look at it this way, you will eventually be forced to use it, so just get used to it and they will change it again in 3 months anyways :/

[Moto X Q&A] asatnik11:
If you have an unlocked bootloader, flash the T-Mobile SBF minus the bootloader. This was the only way I could get LTE to work with my Verizon moto x on T-Mobile. There are a couple other threads that have specific instructions.

If your bootloader is locked, I think you're SOL and will be stuck on HSPA+.

No, they can't, as there are no tamper flags on the N7. The only Nexus device that uses tamper flags is the N5, but even those are easily reset.

If you want to upgrade but don't know what you should do, then why don't you start reading some threads on this forum?

When you don't know what you're doin' I can only give you the advice to leave it the way it is ;)

It's not that I don't wanna help ya out, but read first before starting to do some experiments. There are enough people that made certain mistakes before you so just check it out ;)

thanks for you kind help... im not a dumb ass who doesnt know how to read and doesnt know how to use the search feature... but thanks for your kind help..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Dr Puttingham:
@c-pimp ... speaking only for myself, I haven't answered your posts on this because it doesn't appear that you HAVE read through all the postings...

Let me lay it out for you and you take it for what it's worth.

First, if you're willing to take the chance that you MIGHT brick your device then that's YOUR decision. What works for one typically works for another but ... YMMV. No one here is going to accept the responsibility for your device. Most folks here suggest that you stay with your provider's upgrades. If you have such concerns then I don't think you're ready, my opinion.

Second, if you plan on doing anything other than an official sanctioned upgrade then you must CID and SIM unlock, period. This, if done correctly, is forever.

Third, what do you have on your phone that you need to backup? I've heard people speak here of taking 6 hours to rebuild their device after an upgrade and I've never understood exactly how it could take so long. Folks here have compiled very nice cabs with most of all of the registry tweaks one could need. I personally have a folder on my SC that contains all my necessary cabs, security certificates, etc. I'm down to an hour or so to completely rebuild a freshly flashed Wizard. The original ROM's are available so there's no reason to back that up. And if you are doing a major upgrade when you flash the restore will probably break your device as many registry settings, etc are different.

Anything else I can help you with, just ask!

And please don't take offense at me as I mean no harm and am not flaming you nor speaking out of spite.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mccune:
That's what I meant as well, because you said "I'm about to upgrade, but don't know what to do?" I think that there are many people here telling you to leave it alone :)

It wasn't my intention to flame, not at all!

Like said before backups are very personal things. Some people want to backup their complete ROM while others just want a backup of the settings from their previous ROM. I one of the people that uses the last method. But I NEVER restore a backup from an old ROM onto a new one. That's because there might be some changes in the registry of the new ROM.

Second, I unlocked my SIM\CID almost the moment it was possible on this forum. Like said before, that's a one time operation :)

I run the latest t-mobile 2.26 ROM and didn't have to edit NBF files or anything like that. Just install and enjoy.

Once again, it was not my intention to flame. I think it's a bad thing when people say "I wan't to do this, but I haven't got a clue how to do it" to tell them just to flash their device or something like that. Because when it fails you would answer: "I bricked my device, thanks for your kind help!" ;)

The ROM issued by T-Mobile [2.26] DOES NOT require unlocking your phone.

Can you imagine all the people who own an MDA who have never been to this or any other "tweak" forum installing the ROM and not knowing about unlocking and then it bricked there phone? T-Mo customer service wouldn't be able to handle any other calls but theres.

So back up that puppy and get to upgrading...

One thing I noticed... I downgraded the radio ROM to 1.12 from the one supplied with the 2.26 ROM. So much better!!!

The Nook was running CM10.2 internally before I messed it up.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] macrossmerrell:
You need to make a CWM recovery SD Card and flash from there. There should be instructions in this forum.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] fyrmd:
I tried that, but the Nook doesn't seem to be looking at the SD card. I am going to try a different one tomorrow.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] sagirfahmid3:
Trust me, you can't brick a nook. I did something far worse than you--I deleted the entire partition table of the NT and I still recovered it with a bootable SD. Make sure the LVM and bootable flags are set if you used gparted to flash the SD image.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikeataol:
there's a certain percantage (10% - 20% ) of NOOK tablets that wont boot off the SD card unless you

stick the card in with the unit off

and then

plug the charging cable into the unit

it's called a "tethered boot"

it's something to do with the hardware and the timing of the boot cycle.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] petewr:
Along these same lines:

hook up your nook to it's data/charge cable and the cable into a USB port on your computer.

does your nook show up in the "This PC' panel on the left of your file explorer window? If so, just open it up in file explorer and just simply drop your recovery.img onto that windows root directory.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] digixmax:
You can use SD-based recovery to flash a flashable CWM recovery zip available at https://www.mediafire.com/folder/xjwc1a482a6ll/Nook_Tablet.

---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:39 PM ----------

recovery.img needs to be in the /recovery partition which is not mounted and accessible as the "root directory" as suggested.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] petewr:
Fine.

Worked for me.

However that may be, then just install your sdcard in the nook and drop it into that root partition.
