I lost safestrap recovery (apk still installed), and root when the OTA exectued.

so I did have to downgrade to MK2 and start over, but everything worked. thanks for the confirmation, I know in some situations you can't downgrade and I wasn't sure if I would brick.

thanks again for your help.

Hi together,

I made an update from NB1 to NC1 as in this thread described. Everything works and it's rooted.

But now, safestrap doesn't work anymore in Android. When I start the app..it's stops..and I get back to the main screen.

Is there a chance to run the app in Android?

I want to sell my phone...so is there any other way to uninstall safestrap and get a factory reseted NC1?

/e:

I just read this:

Known Issue: Safestrap.apk will force close after updating to NC1 using this method, however Safestrap recovery will continue to function. Optional: To manually uninstall safestrap use Es File Explorer to delete system/etc/safestrap and system/bin/e2fsck, then rename system/bin/e2fsck.bin to e2fsck (save these files if you wish to manually reinstall Safestrap at a later time).

If I do this...it will just boot regulary in Android without any issues? And can I do then a factory reset from Android OS?

Messed my S4 up after root need a bit of help.

Hey everyone, I finally went and registered after all these years!

Any who I reticently rooted my i337 S4 with the method within this thread and as usual all went well... this was about a month ago, I came from NB1 and Just before that Mk2. So like an idiot I was at work today showing an Iphone guy what root meant and made my way to Chanfire's Play Store page... and for some reason or another I decided to download and install Chanfires 3D to my S4.. didn't read anything about it just showing off i guess. Right when I clicked to install drivers i think it was (which I actually meant to hit cancel, and immediately new i was in for a ride) I partially read the message that said it my not work and I would have to re install stock rom .... don't remember the rest. Well phone will boot up with Samsung Logo Then to Safstrap but if i click continue it wont boot any further. I an get into recovery and Safestrap though. My question is What do i need to reinstall to get back to a working device, start all over again of can i fix this another way. I have read into it and it looks like i need to reflash stock rom, ... so would that be this NC1 Since that what i am on?

Very sorry for the broken sentence structure, my 2 year old will not leave Daddy alone for any reason today.

By the way op thanks for the initial release of this and all the others preceding it.

Just wipe and flash the NC1 ROM in safestrap's(v3.72) stock slot and you should be back in business.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] muniz_ri:
Since you are/were currently on NC1 you should arleady have the NC1 kernel on your boot partition. But if you decide to re-flash it will not cause any harm.

OK i wiped and the tried to flash "I337_NB1toNC1_KeepRoot_OTA.zip " and it said failed is this not the NC1 I need to be flashing?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ErikFry:
I want start by saying that I did not take the 4.3 OTA from Verizon. I flashed my phone from 4.2.1 to 4.4.1 cm11 and various KitKat Roms. My last being mastamoons version. I wanted to flash back to a 4.3 TW ROM for stability. KitKat has been wonderful the days it decided to be 100% stable. But the myriad of issues plaguing my daily apps, freezing or phone rebooting warranted a flash to TW 4.3. I made a forum post because I was not entirely sure how to flash from 4.4 AOSP back to 4.3 TW and the advice given to me on CleanROM 8.1 thread was to format data, cache, dalvik and flash the zip. I did so and everything was fine. No bootloop (yet, kinda. Will get to that). So my phone rebooted and the first try got me to the start screen. Here is where things go wrong. It asks me for my PIN or Password as if it is encrypted. I've never encrypted my phone so I was perplexed. I thought maybe I triggered KNOX? But CleanRom 8.1 is touchwiz. But it doesn't not include KNOX from what I've read. I've wiped system and tried multiple methods of formatting the phone and I always get back to the same problem .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ErikFry:
The bootloop I solved after

I formatted /system. I even restored my previous cm10.2.1 backup which was on 4.3 and I did a manual factory reset from settings. Then I formatted data, cache, dalvik and still nothing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Try doing a complete wipe. What recovery are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ErikFry:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
You need to wipe your internal sdcard. Backup any important files to your external SD or a computer. Then wipe everything. System. Data. Internal SD card. Caches. Format system. Then flash the modem in the op if you haven't already. Should be in the op of the ROM you want to flash. Then flash the ROM. Might take up to 10-15 minutes for initial boot so be patient. You should be all good from there.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domik82:
Hi,

I didn't found any solution or working ROM/Kernel/Radio so maybe someone will point me to any direction except going back to 4.3

Like many users I have problems while listening music by my bluetooth headset. I have random disconnections while listening to audiobooks and calls. While listening to music it's usually random I can listen for 20-30 minutes nothing happens and sometimes it will disconnect after 5 and only reboot will fix the issue. Second problem is disconnect while calling. I have disconnections and reconnection's every 5 to 30 seconds. It's also random. Sometimes it works - usually it doesn't.

I'm using right now AOKP ROM but according to @aalvico post that problem exists also on Slim/PA/Purity and not on Omni and XeonHD.

Changing radio didn't solve issue. I tried AOKP/Franco/Hells Kernel. Same issue.

I started to experience this issue on KVT49L build.

So final question is - do any one knows 4.4/4.4.2 ROM that doesn't have this issue (meaning someone fixed it)?

I didn't had stock 4.4.2 yet, any one knows is the issue present there also?

This issue is so annoying that I would even go to stock to get rid of it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oxious119:
Well, I'm using the nexus 5 port (KOT49H) with matrix 13.5 kernel and v4a and I never experienced problems like that, neither did I on previous builds.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domik82:
Thanks for reply. Could you give me more details what Rom you are using? I changed from AOKP 4.3 directly to 4.4.2 so I missed a lot nightly builds to catch this issue earlier. I don't really expect much of the rom except battery, I used AOKP ROM since second day I had my N4 so I don't really know how other roms/stock rom perform or what features I have in AOKP that I would not have in other (I needed ROM with quick pin unlock feature because of Exchange policy - now Xposed framework/mod did the job).

This issue is so annoying that I even considered selling N4 and buying something else.Then I thought first I need to try change the rom.

I have been terribly quiet for over 3 years and right now I can't even write in developer topics :/
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iliyas10:
Yes i had this some kind of similar bluetooth issue not with audio(actually didnt tried) but with bluetooth transfer from my pc to n4. the file got transfered successfully but my n4 hanged and restarted.

[LG G Flex] magenate:
I'll preface this question with the facts ...ive been rooting and flashing roms on OG evo and optimus G for quite a while so ive seen a lot of roms and tweaks...but im curious.. is it worth losing root and tweaks to be on 4.4 kitkat? I know that i use my flex for music at work and with high end headphones at home .so i cant give up viperfx sound mod and removal of all lg bloat is a big thing. With successful recovery and bootloader the first thing im doing is flashing a rooted stock kitkat rom. but until then 4.2 is good...your thoughts. ..ty

[General Topics] prestonmcafee:
I'm at a loss to understand my data use. I check email every 30 minutes or so, and have the phone configured to download 4K tops. I receive around 25 messages per day, so that is 100K in downloads. I have weather checked every 5 hours, and it records data use, at around 40K per day. T-Mobile says I use 1.5MB per day.

Moreover, when I switched from the Treo to the T-Mobile MDA, my data use went from 50KB per day to 1.5MB, and my behavior is not significantly different.

As I have an unlimited plan, this only matters in roaming, but it matters a lot there, as travel that used to generate $10 in charges is now generating $450.

Any ideas about what might cause such large unnoticed data use?
[General Topics] newbie2:
Like you, I have my Cingular 8125 set to check emails every hour and receive 40 - 50 per day with the full message instead of just the headers. In addition, my weather program updates the forecast and current conditions every 2 hours. I may spend 10 - 15 minutes a day web browsing. When I divided the total data useage on my last bill by the number of days in the billing cycle, it cames out to just over 2mb/day. WOW!! Didn't know how much I was actually using.

However, I also have the Unlimited Data Plan with Cingular, so I don't incur extra charges for it, but 2mb/day seems pretty high to me.

As you said this your 2nd Nexus, tell me one thing, Are you using a Wi-Fi network for your call and you leave the Wi-Fi coverage area, your call might disconnect. Try the following actions:

Make the call using the mobile network instead of a Wi-Fi network.

Move back into the Wi-Fi coverage area, and try making your call again.

or If not, then might be its your telecom provider problem.:good:

Hi.

Please tell me,

I have stock Sony, Orange branded 4.3 android version. Not rooted, clean. I read on Sony device papers that Xperia M supports Bluetooth 4.0. Android supports it since 4.3 . But it seems like it doesn't support Bluetooth Low Energy protocol I care about. Is it possible that another Android version (eg. CM) will support it? Does anybody used it with any BLE device for sure? How is this possible that my phone sees target device but cannot further communicate?

Thanks,

https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-M-M-dual/Does-Xperia-M-support-Bluetooth-BLE/td-p/673259/page/5

Long story short, BLE is NOT supported but will be with a future SW update.

You can do a temporary recovery image boot.

You must know fastboot commands and must download a recovery image and a super SU zip.

1. Boot into bootloader

2. Fastboot boot recovery.img

3. Once in recovery, MAKE A BACKUP

4. Install SuperSU.zip

5. Reboot

6. Check root once rebooted

You will retain your stock recovery, and your backup will be of the stock system. This will also not give you a tampered flag, at least in my experience

There is a thread in the development section of the VZW M8 forum with a how to enable fully functional T-mobile usage.

Loki has been patched, although it took LG almost a year to do so. We can run KK on the G2 by keeping the old bootloader which still has Loki exploit.

But anyone who buys a G2 now (which will ship with KK) or future devices like G3 will need to find a new exploit. And those are getting much harder. Just look at the situation for S4, >1 year and still no exploit, same for S5.

HTC is the only truly dev friendly oem left IMO. Do you think LG will start following Samsung and make their phones almost impossible to unlock?

you are funny with the HTC :) completely not true though. Look at HTC ONE x

Also we are able to downgrade the boot loader at least I did...

And LG has 2 devices called Nexus. There you can do all.

You knew what you were getting, if not you were a fool...

You have hundreds of alternatives... that are dev friendly.

And HTC, lg, Samsung ain't one of them, they are not the only ones making phones you know....
