hi everyone! I just want you all to know that bricked wizards can be fixed. How?

Technical Part

the bootloader is stocked on a memory on the Wizard, however, if we messed it in anyway the PDA won't turn on anymore, but the thing we all forget: IT'S STILL A MEMORY!

so we still can access it without the PDA running.

HOW?

i've been reeding thousands of pages,i found many pictures and many tutorials how to access ANY memory and ANY PDA, didn't got a final solution for the Wizard (till now) but i'm still looking and i found many many pda's tutorials.

the whole idea is creating a (HOMEMADE JTAG) that makes a connection between the PC's LPT Port and the memory of the bricked device, many cables are shown on the internet and tested. there is a simple design to complex design.

The signals on the JTAG connector (dual row)

I will show you some images and links so you can keep looking with me to find together a solution...

this is an example for IPAQ 3600

http://openwince.sourceforge.net/jtag/iPAQ-3600/

looks promising hun?

today i will check if the TP1 and other points are LABELED on the Wizard just like the COMPAQ In the pictures

if so then we got the absolute solution

if not i will keep looking and i will put the solution in details as soon as i discover it.

all i need is some people to help me looking and testing with me. i would say be aware and don't do this.. but if you don't you'll still having a dead and bricked phone. you have to revive it (at your own responsibility).

i don't think it's very hard to do.... just little attention and we'll do it

the good story is: if you did this once you can keep the cable, so whenever you mess with it again you just (INSTALL) your bootloader like installing a game

SUCCEED for ONCE and you have a VAMPIRIC Wizard that doesn't die TILL you hit it's screen

check what that person has done to it's PDA for direct access whenever he wants:

http://www.gert-menke.de/jtag-howto/

hehe cool hen? just like a Floppy Disk

The Type of cables you can make:

http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Customizing/Hardware/JTAG_Cable

http://jtag-arm9.sourceforge.net/hardware.html

there's many other PDAs Fixed in This way:

http://repair4pda.org/handheld_jtag.html

i think we have a big chance that the connectors points on all board are the same (positions) or at least labeled.

please do not try anything until many one talks about it.

there's more info we have to gather together before proceeding.

and watch out the homemade JTAG has to be les than 15cm long to avoid noise...

please be active with me and i promise a solution for the Wizard as a start and later may help all other PDAs

ARE YOU WITH ME?

have fun!

Hello,

Can anyone tell us which cloudy rom is the best for daily use? As you may know, there are 3 different roms called cloudy.

I want to use one of them for my daily life but want to know which one is the best in terms of stability, features (4K recording and etc) battery life and etc..

Currently I use V20d Open UK.

Thanks a lot.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yken:
2 of them are just ports, the other one is stock.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnteusFogg:
Tried CloudyStock and CloudyFlex as daily drivers, both are very good on all aspects. Although Flex is a port, I haven't experienced any issue with it and it has my preference: All features from stock are available plus a few bells and whistles from Flex.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oadam11:
I personally like cloudypro ll the best. I like the firmware better on the pro than stock of flex. Although aosp is better in my opinion

Sent from my LG-VS980
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yken:
wish someone test these 3 roms
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sindroid:
All three rocks. Using cloudystock with flex skin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] numbR7:
I will not state the obvious with the exception of this: If you can not root a device much less install a custom recovery, development essentially means absolutely nothing to you.. In this case what is the new definition of open source? "Open source" made android what is today.

All opinions from different perpectives are welcome--but please mind your Ps and Qs.

Thanks....

EDIT: I firmly believe that xda members must be patient. However, there must also be a realistic reckoning. That is to say--hypothetically speaking--if it takes five years to create an exploit, for all practical purposes one could consider that bootloader impregnable considering the exponential pace of technological advancement. So, if one is measured in their assessment and comments, it is closer to the truth and a heck of a lot more useful to talk in terms of "X" device has a bootloader that can not be unlocked. If for example the S4 is "cracked" say--three years from now, will anyone care? Will development restart? Finally, like with any choice, it's up to the individual to decide what can be considered "hard locked." For me, I guessed that the S4 would be leaked an unlock after the S5 came to market. Obviously my reasoning was wrong. At any rate, my ship has sailed--I can be patient no more.

But remember here we are assuming for the sake of a discussion that these bootloaders will not be exploited and if that is the case will that spread to the point that US development dies on the vine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LoSt180:
I thought unlockable bootloaders WERE promoting US development. The T-Mobile S5 subforum is buzzing, and it's crickets around here. It's these locked bootloaders that cause some frustration.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] numbR7:
I think your right about T mobile. But they come with bootloaders that allow rooting and Installation of a custom recovery (I.e. unlocked).. When I say unlockable I am refering to carriers like At&t and Verizon. Take a look at their forums--you can almost hear crickets! As they are "locking down" one might wonder if it will spread especially as a carrier attains its target market share through promotions and even merger.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LoSt180:
T-Mobile is unlockable the HTC One M8 is unlockable, AT&T and Verizon S5 variants are not unlockable - we can't unlock them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rachelm920:
Not being able to unlock the bootloader, I believe is going to end development, at least for AT&T and Verizon. If I had the cash, I probably would've went with the T-mobile version, but I'm not rich like that LOL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] eortizr:
As it was said by a mod in another thread, giving hopes to users that the AT&T/Verizon's S5 will get root anytime soon is just unfair for the users. It will not happen. The AT&T Note 3 got root when in 4.3, but there is no root in the horizon for KitKat don't even think about an unlocked bootloader. The same happened to the S4 after it was updated the bootloader and root is now lost and that has been for many, many months and on a phone that it had a very large development. Developers are not even bothering on wasting their time on AT&T/Verizon because there is the TMO and International versions available.

So to answer the original question my answer would be Yes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] numbR7:
I couldn't agree more. I think it's good you emphasize the truth as I helps newer people understand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
There is a fine line between giving false hope and nurturing fears, saying "It will not happen" is not necesarily true, it may not happen, but then again remember some who waited for a year to get root or those with iphones who waited for a year to jailbreak.

just my opinion is all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] eortizr:
Agreed, when I said 'it will not happen' i was referring to the 'anytime soon' statement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] johnkirchner:
I agree that saying "it's coming soon" is probably not the best phrase to use. However, to say it will never happen is just as bad. It simply did not and has not happened as fast as we want it to. There is always someone smarter when it comes to computers and software. I am sure the devs have a life outside of hacking a phone for us and everyone needs to be patient. Plus the fact with the Knox security, I am sure the devs want to find all possible work arounds. Just my opinion though...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] baldwyn:
What I've come to realize in my years of owning Android devices and reading these posts on xda is that virtually nothing is impossible. However, that is a double-edged sword meaning that the manufacturers have had to step up their collective games to make it even harder for exploits to be found. AT&T and Verizon are protecting themselves from the idiots who don't know what they're doing and brick their devices or get them infected with viruses. I can understand that to a point. However, I would gladly pay AT&T and even sign a waiver to let ME take the risk solely upon myself to do what I would like with MY phone. It's idiots that ruin it for the rest of us. Such as the world, I guess. Just my two cents.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sk8trix:
I love to use custom Roms etc.However when you buy a phone, buy it for what it is not for what you want it to be later on. The fact that there is no root is what keeps me using my GS4 more than this phone but the S5 is a solid Device, has great battery life (for me at least) and gets everything I need done. Its a matter of being patient especially for any who own the 4 and know how Samsung and ATT locked the previous iteration of this phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] numbR7:
Please explain how these so-called "idiots" are the reason AT&T and Verizon "had" to lock down the devices. I don't understand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] baldwyn:
AT&T and Verizon are protecting themselves from the idiots who don't know what they're doing and brick their devices or get them infected with viruses.

I think I kinda explained it right there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] numbR7:


Yes - I get that statement. But, how are they protecting themselves. That is, how are they harmed by these "idiots?" Further, if one were to extrapolate users from population, roughly 96% of mobile phone users in the world don't seem to pose a significant problem to thier carriers as it is only the NA carriers that do this ("hard" lock the bootloader). Then, futher hone that to say maybe 1.5%, at the most, US users root their phones. Then narrow further by device. If these numbers are even close--how many of these "idiots" are there. You've been around long enough to know some of the so-called "idiots" were accomplished developers. I do not want to argue with you. I am genuinely intetested in why you see it this way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] numbR7:
Have you checked into the buyout and trade in promotions T Mobile has? Maybe you can switch with little or no pain. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sentinel79:
I'm so god damn sick of this OTA sh... I was at work and it rebooted and started installing by itself. I tried to pop the battery but no matter what I do it continues the installation.

I'm moving to T-Mobile. Thanks ATT!:(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] baldwyn:
I'm sorry my off-the-cuff remark has gotten out of hand. The idiots to whom I am referring are the ones who brick their phones or get them infected by lack of knowledge and then try to blame the carrier instead of taking the responsibility themselves. As a precaution, I can see AT&T locking their devices down in an attempt to prevent that from happening. I understand it's a small number of people that cause this or are even affected by this, but by doing so, AT&T can better control their integrity. Same reason why a bag of peanuts sometimes says "Caution: Contains nuts." C.Y.A.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] numbR7:
It's cool. Posts are often taken wrong or worded differently than someone else is used to talking. I see your point. It makes sense. I may be a little too jaded (to put it nicely) to let them off the hook that easily though. Lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] davew41:
After my purchase of the new Samsung galaxy s5 on AT&T I will state that this will be my last carrier specific purchase,

My girlfriend has the HTC M8 (I had one also but hated the freaking pics from the camera).

This was another example of lesson learned, I will from now on purchase nexus devices or not locked to a carrier specific devices, or Google play edition devices from now on.

No more jumping the gun paying full retail to get phones on release day screw that. Lesson has been learned here for sure.

I am thinking on sending my Galaxy S5 into http://www.maxback.com and then purchasing a nexus 5, then later this year when the new nexus is available,I can pick one of them up.. But im kind of stuck as I love the camera on the s5.... this is what is holding me up...

Sure we and disable the bloatware on the Samsung and all that fun stuff, but there is a world of difference when all those items are gone

Thanks to the awesome developers here on XDA making some kickass roms for us.

I run the kingkat on my girlfriends HTC m8 from the HTC forums and it is so much faster with all of the bloatware and features she was never going to use gone.. that m8 is night and day in speed difference and usability..

Bottom line If we are here we have the mindset to tinker and to tinker on these devices WE need to stop buying locked down phones..

im downloading tar now wioll get u files shortly

ps- why are all u guys updating :/ the chances of ever getting root again on this rom are slim to none unless the bootloader isnt incremented which ishighly unlikely.. look at the s5 13k bounty for just root and its still not out yet..

let me tear through this and provide a safe way to update and keep root
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
dont take the update.. i will provide a safe way to update and keep root and a way to be able to revert to the old kernel with the insecure modules for when kexec starts working if it cooperates..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mjh68:
Thank you Beans ! I was going to wait till you made it safe [emoji3]
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dmsaia:
You da man Beans!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Michael R.:
Yeah I wasn't going to try, I run ARLiberator and I didnt pay $30 for nothing. Seriously considering the highly advocated leak though now that I have actually taken the time to read through the PSA and thread comments.

I'm kind of a noob though, I don't understand a lot of the intricacies of programming. Am I correct in assuming that if they are able to build a custom kernel with this unprotected firmware, it will be possible to install non TW roms Like CM11 one day?:confused:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
if the kexec module is perfected it will allow us to 2nd boot a aosp kernel and in turn run aosp roms like cm11,aokp,gummy etc. this is a hard task but having the opportunity to use it is a very good thing
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] T3KN0P13:
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this the general forums for the Verizon Note 3? Some might just like being informed about the stock update in a thread without it being bombarded with beans rom posts. We do have the posts about this already I believe.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dhufford81:
I wish there was a thumbs down button. :thumbdown:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] T3KN0P13:
Well, I must be wrong then. I guess I'll try to find a general forums so I can be informed about the stock kitkat update.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hsbadr:
Unfortunately, it only works when upgrading from MJE/NC2. it requires a working SafeStrap recovery.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] susieq29:
Updated 4.4.2 KK .Having issues with safestrap only on Note3 Everything seems to be working. Safestrap will open but does not show up on screen at reboot and shut down. I am waiting for answers.

I tried redownloading 2X from two different sources and it still does not work.

I do not use visual voice mail
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
totally agree

lol i wouldnt doubt it the only reason nc4 was released was to get people to upgrade off of the nc2 leak which is much more valuable than nc4

not worth it at all but it seems ALOT of people have upgraded :/

if it works thatas good thats what survival mode is built for lol.. but its also not the most reliable way.

gonna work on it more today have had a crazy busy week since the build came out

nope there is no way and look at the s5 they are at like a $15k bounty for root alone and no one has done it.. if that much money isnt getting a root method then i doubt one is coming anytime soon..

no havent had much of a chance to dig at it will give it a look today been a busy week or so

Anyone has the ota file? If so please share it.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Dcar777:
The update is 4.4.2 KitKat. Mine went through fine. Just need to find out how to root without tripping KNOX now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] derekstory:
My note 3 just downloaded some update. I'm assuming its kit kat. But it only gives me an option to install now or install later. I can't remove it from my notification bar..I'm not sure what to do. Do I install it? If not how can I get rid of it. I am rooted running stock rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mjh68:
There isn't root for the OTA yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Dcar777:
Figured as much. No big deal. I purposely waited for the update to root the phone. Been 4 months with no root.... I can wait longer.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] :
I could not agree with you more than I already do, there are absolutely NO benefits from the OTA. If people use your NC2 leak or any of the fine 4.4.2 ROMs available and this for recovery and modem they would have all the "benefits" of the OTA plus the ability to flash back to MJE if a re-root is needed. With the OTA all the possibility of root is lost for a long time if not permanently. Below is a screenshot before a full reset back to MJE after using the file in the link above. After the flash back to MJE I am back to the screenshot status.I'm back on KK 4.4.2 with the NC4 baseband, I have root and the ability to do it all over again if needed.

I've now had the exact opposite experience. Had survival mode checked and it did jack squat.

Is there any way at all to get root again? I'm ok with wiping the phone and don't give hoot about Knox. Honestly, I know so little it's dangerous.

I've sorta gotten to know my way around ODIN now, but I can't seem to flash anything but NC4 without it failing out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] pkd600:
There is no way currently to obtain root if you are already on NC4 and unrooted.

Nope there is no way to root NC4. That's why I told people to be cautious when doing it. I gave the warning multiple times because I figured that not everyone will have the same results.

Sent from my rooted Note 3 on 4.4.2 NC4 baseband
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bodhisattvah:
Aight. Just making sure it wasn't the qualifier "if you don't want to wipe your phone/trip Knox".

And yeah yeah yeah, I knew I was risking it taking the update. Just like I was risking it using Kingo to get root in the first place. And it worked--I did actually have root before the update. Shame I lost it. Probably go with a completely custom rom next time around. Screw this locked down VZ crap.

And for those tempted, the way I lost it was using the Verizon plugged in update. My wifi was slow, so I let my laptop sit around and download it. I'd stay away from the VZW update software if you're afraid of losing root.
