Why do you want to downgrade the modem?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gregvolt:
Hi, I bought a galaxy s3 off ebay so I can swith to t mobile but I want to get it set up and working how I want before I actually make the switch. So I've been loading roms for 2 days and trying them out. I cant seem to delete files from the sd card when I use any rom but the stock rom. I tried KitKat, CM11, CM 10.2 CM 10.1 and custom stock (I think that's what its called). also when I use es file explorer, only some of the photos I have on the card are viewable and some appear as broken and cant be opened. But then when I go to the stock rom, they all work fine. Id really love to have a custom rom but I need to fix this problem first. Any ideas?

It is fat 32 already.. also the camera wont write to the card when I take a picture. a popup comes up saying cant write to it and that it will save photos on the cameras internal memory. I am going to try a different card.

So right before I sold my wife's Nexus 5, I had the opportunity to test it out with he RavPower RP-WCN11. It's basically a 4800mAh capacity portable charger like other ones on the market. You can attach a device to it with a USB cord like any other. However, it also has QI wireless charging capability.

I guess you could also say it's like a normal QI wireless charging pad that happens to have a 4800 mAh capacity battery inside.

I know others have referenced the product a few times. Here's a video with it in use.

My wife continues to use the power bank in the car and when we're walking our daughter around the neighborhood. It's held up pretty well.

Is it possible to flash twrp or cwm without odin? I know you can download Rom manager and use it to flash cwm but it wouldn't boot into recovery afterwards just went into a boot loop
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] robertwind89:
I guess I'll go with no which I assumed would be the answer
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: custom recovery

You can flash TWRP without ODIN if your phone is rooted.

Go to the playstore and download "goomanager" a free app

and click the menu softkey on left side of phone then select

"flash open recovery script".

Then wait til it gets done and when it's done just reboot the phone.

That's the easiest way to do it and TWRP is way better than cwm.

Good luck!

Hi u all!

First of all thank you for your time and sorry for my english, I speak spanish.

I have a nexus s i9023. I was using CyanogenMod 11 experimental 24042014.

I was having many problems and decided to downgrade to the stable version 10.1.2

It downloaded ok, installed all the updates, rebooted and then got stuck in the logo screen when booting.

The problem is that my nexus s has a broken the power button, it doesn't work.

As for right now the olny thing I can do is to enter the bootloader screen, but cant move throgh the options with the volume keys, it's like its stuck.

If I plug in the device when in the bootloader (fastboot mode) screen my PC doesn't recognice it, I search in the device manager but it doesn't appear.

If it helps when I plug in the battery the phone starts on in it's on.

Please, any help is appreciated.

Im really sad because I love my nexus.

Thank you!!!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smit.sanghavi:
Seems like a driver issue. Can you try installing the drivers in a different system?

If it goes well, then use install cwm touch recovery from fastboot. You can take backup and flash new ROMs after that.

Try Nexus Root Toolkit to install drivers if you don't have access to a different system.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kijp15:
Don't I need to have android debugging enabled? If so, I don't think Nexus Root Toolkit will work. I flashed a ROM to my NS4g & I get boot loops. I flashed the wrong Gapps a few months ago. >:(

I was hoping there would be a way to automatically turn android debugging on. I know it may sound dumb & also probably impossible.

Any other tips.

Tell me I'm screwed. Haha.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smit.sanghavi:
I disabled USB debugging. Rebooted to bootloader. Fired up 'fastboot devices' on cmd and could see my phone. This tells me that I do not need USB debugging on fastboot.

If you see an unknown device in Device Manager while in fastboot then use Universal Naked Driver to install the drivers. But since you don't, you'll need another PC to do this stuff. Once drivers are installed, you can do a 'fastboot reboot recovery' to get into recovery and fix the the problems. The first thing I advice is to flash a touch recovery. The rest is up to you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superng888:
Flash back the original soju firmware back onto your device by first using "nexus s root toolkit v.1.8.2 by wugfresh". It may take a little of your time downloading the roms and installing the drivers but trust me it should be working and your phone will boot into stock android 4.1.2. You can then root your device and install custom recovery as normal. Anything do pm me :laugh: ps, click the bricked option one the software is loaded up and remember to connect your device only and remove other phones from your computer

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] eudemonics:
so from what i can understand as far as some of the root methods i've come across that trip knox, this is because they are gaining root by flashing a rooted image, which trips knox because it doesn't have the required encrypted signature of the official files, right? so my question is, would knox get tripped if root was gained by exploiting some flaw within android, then escalating privileges to create a root shell?

my t-mobile note 3 running android 4.4.2 with build NB4 is affected by the heartbleed bug, according to lookout's tool. and i know google hasn't patched it yet. are there any stock applications that use openSSL that could possibly be exploited to gain root privileges? also, what credentials are the "device administrators" using if any - like lookout, samsung knox, android device manager - do they each have their own usernames? are there passwords for these usernames? is there an admin or sudo group or are they all contained to specific service groups?

i'm very frustrated with this knox flag, i'm not sure why i care but i can't bring myself to root while knowingly tripping the knox flag (though i'm sure i probably couldn't care less if i tripped it by accident).. hoping to find another rooting method that doesn't set the 0x1 flag but i've never done this before, so sorry if some of the questions come off as silly..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
You are asking about different things in the same message..

Heartbleed:

The SM-900T has 4.42 which is KitKat. It comes with OpenSSL 1.0.1e which is vulerable. However it is not using heatbeats so it is safe. Unless you load something on your phone which uses the same "copy" in the OS and also uses heartbeats, it would also be safe.

Most apps that need OpenSSL however have their own copies... There are a couple apps which can look at this and tell you if they are vulnerable. Last I checked, only Netflix was and I removed it. Have not check to see if there was an update yet.

Knox:

Knox is a security package that allows you to run applications in a special container (called Knox) that is sandboxed from the rest of the device. This is something many businesses need to protect their data while allowing users to use their own devices for both personal and business.

The Knox warranty means that the ability to use Knox for that purpose has been voided (Knox Warranty Void).... the term warranty is really a bad word to use since it means many different things to others.

In fact, unless you work for a company that uses that type of security, it really should make no difference to you. Samsung might care, but T-Mobile doesn't when turning a phone in for warranty.

Note few will really care. There are other security methods, in fact the company I work for uses a different method which is not affected by Knox in any way.

Root:

If you have 4.42, you can't root it know without causing the Knox Warranty to be Void. Again, if you don't need Knox security, who cares...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] eudemonics:
yes, i know what knox is, even read the white paper. that wasn't part of my question, though. my issue with knox is that i don't like doing something that's supposedly irreversible. if i ever wanted to resell the phone i'd like to be able to offer it as close to factory as possible.. that warranty void 0x1 thing might hurt the value..

yeah, i know there were a lot of questions combined into one thread, but they're all related to figuring out a root exploit for kitkat 4.4.2 without tripping knox. openssl can always be recompiled with the heartbeats flag on from the affected source code and then updated. need to find an app with escalated permissions that's affected by it though in order to even try it, though. only reason i was thinking about it was because google hasn't patched it and 4.4.2 is known to be affected.

what about the current "device administrators" - what are their credentials and privileges? groups?

and you didn't answer my question about whether or not attempting a root escalation privileges exploit within android would trip the knox 0x1 flag.

actually, you didn't answer any of my questions, but thanks for explaining a bunch of stuff i already knew! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Actually I did.

This may change, but right now.... that is the fact.

If you find another way... let us know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Sardonik:
People have reported successfully acheiving root without flipping Knox to 0x1 on 4.4.2, by starting on 4.3, rooting that and upgrading to 4.4.2 using MOP & EverRoot. So there's nothing about root itself that triggers the flag. Just no known way to get there without triggering it starting on 4.4.2.

I think Kingo actually took one if the approaches you describe in gaining root, via a vulnerability in the camera API. Seems reasonable to assume that discovering a similar vulnerability could work for 4.4.2.

I wish I could tell you more about any built in admin credentials, but I wish you luck in your quest for root on 4.4.2. I'm not even certain there are any passwords/credentials to be sniffed out by Heartbleed, but given the lack of progress in finding a more traditional exploit for 4.4.2, it can't hurt to try a different approach.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] eudemonics:
unfortunately i didn't get a chance to root on 4.3 since my N900T came with 4.4.2 already installed. :(

hehe actually, what would be ideal is to use the heartbleed exploit to somehow obtain samsung or t-mobile's private cert/key credentials and use that to sign as official updates any ROMs, bootloaders, or recoveries we want to flash! i know, i can dream. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Sardonik:
It'd be nice to get those signing keys, but those are definitely locked away deep in the bowels of Samsung. On a computer with no network connections, most likely. Heartbleed can't help us there, unfortunately.

I just thought people might like to know that Samsungs newest promotion of getting a free ebook every month using "Kindle for Samsung" is possible on a AOSP rom. I successfully got it working on Omnirom (Kitkat)

All you have to do is get a hold of two apk's com.amazon.kindlefs and samsungservice

I got the first one by searching Google and someone posted a link to it in a comments section (I lost the link though so you will have to find it)

You should also be able to extract it from a stock based phone that got it the right way from "Samsung Apps"

Then for it to work right and let you get the free book you also need the "Samsung Account" app which is just samsungservice.apk. Easy to get from any rom or search xda I found the apk it self without having to download a full rom.

Installing both of those was enough and I got my first book free.
