[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guilherme1:
Fixed super user

Hello everyone, I fixed it by myself.

I did a search on /system/app and found the SuperSU.apk pack that I had before the OS changed.

I choose to install and it asked to update the app instead.

Installation proceeded and then the SuperSU app returned, with all the settings I had, just like it was before. Even the logs were unchanged.

Anyway, I still would like some information about clockwork mod. Can anyone point me the directions?

[Q] Yet another "I'm stuck at the AT&T screen and I it's not recognized" thread

Greetings, all

I've been trying to figure this out, off and on, for 2-3 weeks. I could use some help.

Originally, I was running Cognition, but I can't even remember what I was trying to flash because I've tried so many things... The bottom line is that I'm at the download screen, but all the PC's I have (win 7) don't recognize it. I'm convinced that if I can get the PC to recognize it, then I could reload i897uckk4. But...

Things I have done:

- Rebooted, switched cables, turned everything off and on, tried on different machines, all the hardware easy stuff.

- Uninstalled drivers, tried other drivers, uninstalled Odin, Heimdall, Kies, rebooted and tried only one at a time.

- Tried all the USB ports on all the PCs

- Different phones are seen from the 2 cables I've been using.

This phone worked and was recognized on this machine before I screwed it up. I don't see how it's a phone hardware issue. Sure, it could be, but I really don't think so. That leaves drivers for Win 7, 64-bit. I've tried these files as Administrator:

- usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64

- Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.14.0

I've even tried these for kicks:

-SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86

- SGH-i897_Captivate_USB_Drivers_5_02_0_2

Now that I've tried all I can find, I think the ones I want to keep are the "usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64"

Thing is, it worked before "The Big Hose of 2014". It should have been recognized, but it stopped being recognized after an unsuccessful attempt at flashing back to stock, after an unsuccessful attempt at Cyanogen. The only thing I can think of is that I tried to flash the wrong ROM version, or something like that, and the phone is in a state where it's not sending the proper handshake.

The error I'm getting is classic, and all over these forums:

- I've tried to manually load "Samsung Android USB Composite Device" driver - Device can not start. Code 10

- All devices like WMC, Mobile Modem, ect - Code 10

- A few others result in the Code 10, too.

I've tried to find the GUID for it in the Registry to delete the Upper and Lower Filters.

What's left? I'm sure it's a small thing. I could use a few more hints.

Two last questions:

Will doing the unbrickable mod help, or is it too late?

Does it charge while in download mode, or if the star like circle is not spinning?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
You probably already saw this thread, but in case: Captivate - PC Connection Issues, Download Mode and Recovery Mode Help

As for what is left, trying on another pc could be a good idea. If the drivers aren't already installed on it, even plugged in download mode, it should install drivers.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FEF:
I've already tried the stuff in the link. I did that first.

I have 7 computers, all running Win 7. This Captivate is not recognized my any of them.

Looks like I'm headed to the unbrickable mod. I'll have to dual boot to Linux for these fixes.

Looks like I bricked it good. It's time to work on the hardware, I guess. It would be fun, if I hadn't already screwed up my phone. :) I bought another Captivate off eBay for $50, so at least I'll have a phone. :cool:

:cool:;):cool:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FEF:
This story has a twist for an ending. I thought I'd post just in case someone else is thinking about getting out the soldering iron.

The funny thing is that after my new (old) phone (a nice one too) I bought from eBay showed up, I started flashing and generally screwing around. Both phones look the same so I couldn't tell exactly which one was which, so I plugged them both in, thinking that I'd fine the one that was responsive. They both went into the Ginger Bread funky "Firmware Upgrade Failed" screen. This was a head scratcher, indeed. I read a while back about how build dates are important when flashing soft bricked Captivates.

One of the phones has a build date of 1007. Since is well before 1010, I looked around for the Eclair Stock ROM and found it here.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

It appears that the early Captivates are very particular about what you flash when going back to stock. I couldn't tell you why the old phone started working. Maybe because I used a JIG then pulled the battery out for a few days? It's possible. All I know is that "I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0" one-click has them both up and running.

At least now I know what I can call my "reset". I'm going to flash GB, then see if I can get to Cognition again, and try "cm-10.2.1-captivatemtd". If they bomb out, I feel real good that I have a way to bring them back.

I hope this can help someone along the way. With the Captivate selling for about $50, albeit 3G, it's not a bad phone at all.

I have a motorola droid 2 that I flashed a custom boot animation. I then tried to flash cyanogen rom (cant remember which one) on my phone, I made sure to follow the steps closely when it came to creating the clockworks recovery. After rebooting the phone and pressing X+Power button I proceeding to flash the rom.

After it finished I reboot the phone again but this time I noticed the boot animation seemed was playing really slowly and if i was lucky then I would get to the android logo but it would get stuck there. Most of the time though the boot animation would loop and it would still play really slowly.

I tried wiping the cache, and when I go to the wipe data option it also says factory reset next to it (wipe data/factory reset) but when I open the option all i see is two (No) options and the (Wipe data) option. No factory reset option. I also tried flashing the current sbf file (2.3.3) with the current rsd lite (5.6) but it would work. The flash would be successful but when the phone booted nothings changed.

I also tried booting the phone in fastboot but apparently it doesnt have one, and I cant load CWM recovery for some reason.

My phones been like this for months and I'm all out of options. Any information you guys might have would be greatly appreciated.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] VolcanicSkunk:
Can I still flash splash screens through fastboot with:

fastboot flash splash1 splash.img

I found this thread in the non-carrier branded M8 Themes & Apps forum: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2713947

It looks like there are mixed results with this method, so I am a little leery about using it. I always preferred flashing splash screens through fastboot anyway.

Obviously the method the thread above uses creates a .nb0 file inside the zip. I always used .img files created with ffmpeg (which the above method uses as well) that I found through this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=834267

This method always worked well with my myTouch 4G. I know that the methods are almost exactly the same. But what's the difference between .nbo and .img?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry for my bad bad english :crying:
[Sony Xperia ZL] adam1liukuro:
You have two options

1. unlock your bootloader and flash root(warranty, DRM keys lost)

2. downgrade to 4.2.2 firmware

backup TA partition then flash a 4.3 pre-rooted stock rom

lastly restore TA partition(must be stock kernel)

stock rooted phone with warranty and DRM keys

If you don't care about the warranty, I'll suggest just go with option 1, since option 2 might be time consuming.

Option 2 is always better. Who knows when your phone is going to break.

you will need to downgrade to 4.2.2 firmware,root it,install custom recovery then flash a pre-rooted 4.3 rom

Not the OP, but am trying to figure out how to do this. All the root threads are a year old, so I want to make sure I have my facts straight before messing anything up. I have a C6506, US Generic but I don't want to lose my DRM keys or Warranty for resale reasons, so am trying to do this the "locked bootloader" way.

1) Downgrade to 4.2.2 firmware. Do I do this with Flashtool? This doesn't require unlocking the bootloader?

2) Root it .. Doomlord method? The Flashtool website says it can "root", too, but it offers no details on which method. What's the best way to go?

3) Install custom recovery. Which one? I see Nut's thread all talk about a dual recovery, but is that necessary? Can I install just one?

4) Is there a pre-rooted 101 for the C6506 US Generic? I can't seem to find one...

Seems like your version is much easier, so I wonder why someone would go through all that trouble for the same result...

Also, won't I lose root once I flash the .101 kernel? Do I get it back using recovery?

Also also: the kernels linked above are for C6503 and C6502. Can I use the full FTF files for C6506 and just deselect flashing everything expect Kernel? It looks to be the same files, except that rpm.sin is included in the full files and not in the kernel FTFs.

I need to return my phone for warranty repair. I have a SGH-M919

I had been trying custom ROMs, but I have returned to my stock (non-rooted) system backup image (THANK YOU to the XDA development community that made it so easy to go back to my stock system).

When I go into download mode, the small print at the upper left of the screen says:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SGH-M919

CURRENT BINARY: Custom

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

CSB-OEM_CONFIG_LSB: 0x30

WRITE PROTECTION: Enable

(last line in grey)

Since the only software on the system that isn't stock is the recovery (TWRP), can I just use Odin to flash the stock recovery? Or do I have to flash the whole phone? Do I need to use Triangle Away?

Appreciate tips!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lagunas11:
Yes you HAVE to use triangle away for warranty purposes, go back to stock then root with cf root method, I can't remember the name of it bt it and then it will root it ONCE so install triangle away and reset flash counter and your system status will say custom still so what you're gona do its boot into recovery, the root method I'm talking about will not make u flash a custom recovery so the recovery you're going to see its gona have purple letters with an Android logo I think and then just factory reset the phone which will delete triangle away and the root method I told u nd ur system should say official and flash counter will be at 0

What you guys should note is that in some cases, NO you do not need to root and use Triangle-Away, because the "Official" ROMs that are available on that thread will restore some devices to 100% stock. At least that's how it went for me.

That said, I am assuming the CSB-OEM_CONFIG_LSB value here is ok??? Is there anywhere someone has posted what this should look like for a 100% stock device? Here's mine after doing nothing beside flashing the *official* stock ROM:

I have cromi-x 5.4 installed on my tablet. Asus tf700.

I formatted and wiped it, and now when it tries to connect to the wifi, it looks for wps keys. I don't want to use wps, but I cannot figure out how to tell the tablet not to use wps. The router uses wep security.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It only instigates wps if the user pushes the wps button.

Describe the process of how you are trying to connect to your router.
[Asus Transformer TF700] oxnardprof:
When I turn the table on, it automatically attempts to connect to wifi.

It can search and find available networks, finds mine, and attempts the connection. There is a double arrow symbol that appears, indicating the device is attempting wifi protected set up.

Then it says "obtaining IP address..."

then a message flashes quickly, indicating it has obtained the IP address.

It does indicate it is obtaining the IP address, then says 'connecting...'

Where is the wps button?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
On your router.

Check the router settings.
[Asus Transformer TF700] oxnardprof:
WPS is disabled on the router.

I imagine I can turn it on, and get the tablet connected. If I then turn WPS off, would the tablet connect in the future with WPS disabled?

Previously, the tablet asked for the WEP key, and connected that way.
[Asus Transformer TF700] oxnardprof:
I think I solved the problem by deleting the wifi network found by scanning and adding it in manually.

The tablet asked for the security key, I entered it and I guess I am good to go now.

The WPS symbol is still there, however, so it may attempt to connect via WPS when I attempt to connect to another wifi network.

WPS is now disabled on my network.
