Hey guys I know a lot off u are into graphic design so should we create a WhatsApp group or is there one already? There was a bbm group once but I thought we should make a graphic design group to share ideas and inspirations and of course show off ur work(in a nice way). I could create it just let me know. Mods if u don't like this close it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
I've read a little bit but I just want to be sure. The s3 was rooted and I believe something was leaked allowing for an unlocked bootloader. I am getting an s4 today from a friend so I was hoping someone can give me a quick overview of where this phone stands.

Mainly I am looked for info on any builds or anything like that I should be careful with. Can every build be rooted and what's going on with the bootloader? Like I said I am pretty familiar with everything I just need a summary of sorts explaining what I should know about this phone coming from the s3. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Any Verizon S4 on a build after MDK does NOT have a bootloader exploit ( Loki )

You can root and install SafeStrap on any build up to MK2.

NC5 (Kit Kat) can be partially downgraded to MK2 though so that you can root and use SafeStrap. I'll get you a useful link..

Here's a good place to start and I can also link you to that downgrade method as well

Here's a good walk through of how to downgrade NC5 to MK2

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
Thanks a lot! I'm getting it later today so we'll see what build he is on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
MDF v1.0 Release 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Huh?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
Can someone go over the different build numbers..like which ones there are and in which order..or the security software versions..still confused on what actually matters for bootloader exploit and root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
That's what mine says for security software version..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
Bootloader (Generally identical to Build) is what matters.

That is NC5, so you'll be able to do a partial downgrade to MK2, root, and return to NC5 if you want root. No non-TouchWiz roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
Ahhh really? That's usually all I ran on my s3. I understand the bootloader isn't unlocked but I thought aosp ROMS were still possible with some kind of work around? I thought no bootloader unlock just meant no custom kernels. I remember it being like that back in the droid x days lol

So either way what are best options..revert back to the earlier build..root..then how do I get back to the newer build again to flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
There is no working AOSP for any Verizon S4 after *MDK. You're correct that it just means no custom kernels, but nobody has gotten a fully working AOSP to run under the stock kernels.

This thread has directions for downgrade/upgrade with root: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2726868
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Looks like that phone is on KOT49H which is a GPE ROM with our NC5 modem no?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
You can tell it's not GPE by how horrifically ugly it is, and the TouchWiz thing on the left side of the screen.

To be sure he can run the phone info app and see what it says for bootloader: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Lol hey just making sure. I'm still on MDK and usually the Kot49h I see are GE ROMs. Might as well use that app and make sure that's all

---------- Post added at 08:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 PM ----------

I'm sure your probably right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
KOT49H is Samsung's official build prefix for all Kitkat for our S4 (incl GPE and normal TW).

I agree though, no harm using the app to make sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
Yea I'm assuming its all stock..he stopped rooting his phones a while ago. So essentially I have root and touch whiz Roms. Are the touch whiz Roms for this phone as customizable as if the bootloader was unlocked? If that's even related lol..on my s3 I've been running MOAR which is actually awesome.

Thanks for all the help..one more question..what's this whole safestrap thing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
info in safestrap thread...its a recovery for those who have a locked bootloader so you can run compatible custom roms
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
Been reading but haven't found a "clear" path..seems there are different options for going back to the old bulid..and then rooting and getting back to NC5..

A little confused on the order of everything regarding safestrap and rooting
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
If you want root, that's your only option. Partial downgrade to MK2, root, safestrap 3.72, and flash a pre-rooted NC5 in safestrap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] aholeinthewor1d:
OK so I safestrap before going back to NC5...so is there ant advantage of going back to NC5? Compared to staying on MK2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
The partial MK2 downgrade probably won't be fully functional (wifi, sound) without manual stuff like using bypasslkm that might need to be done on every boot. Not sure, haven't followed progress there too closely.

The reason to go back to NC5 would be that it's the simplest, and newest (NC5 is Kitkat/4.4.2, MK2 is JB/4.3).
[Ornate TrueSmart] vicer:
Hi, I am trying to root my TS but framaroot is stucked and wont scroll down to show exploit selection.. how can I resolve? thsnks!

SOLVED Set fonts to small and tap the very lower part of the screen and it works (framaroot 1.9.2)
[Ornate TrueSmart] funky0308:
Deleted....

Why don't you just FC program and start it again?
[Ornate TrueSmart] vicer:
If you mean with FC Force Close.. allready done. Otherways can you explain? In the TS Omate the screen is very little and if dont scroll one cant reach the expolit section; someone here allrady used with succes and I just ask how they reach this result. Do you own a TS omate?
[Ornate TrueSmart] funky0308:
Mine is still in custom office... ;)

BTW...

You need xposed module - app settings -

But xposed can't work without root...

If I'm wrong and xposed can work on your device, just install app settings module and set dp to 90 (for that app)

Now I don't get it...

Framaroot is app for Windows, right?

I thought that freezed and you should just force close it...

But if it's on TS that's the way you should do it.

If you could provide me with more info I'll tell you more.

We could edit app before you even install it to show properly, on 90 dp but as I said - I still don't have watch and it's hard to work without it...

---------- Post added at 05:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 PM ----------

Edit:

OK...

Now I get it...

That's app for device, not Windows...

So you could either try to install Xposed and app settings module to set dp to 90 - you'll see full scree then.

Or to download app (framaroot) to your PC, decompile it and set layout to be good for TS.

I'll do that as soon as I get watch for all users to be able to root device without problems (of course if developer let me to)
[Ornate TrueSmart] dj898:
that's strange.

last night after flashing the Unified ROM I downloaded the Framaroot apk and had no trouble to root my 1/8 2100 Omate...
[Ornate TrueSmart] vicer:
Version of framaroot please? I dwnld the last one.. with no success. So you normally swipe down to scroll and reach the exploit selection ?

From where you downloaded (wish give a try with a new file) Thank you!
[Ornate TrueSmart] vicer:
Funky.....I hope you get the watch very soon..!!! ;)
[Ornate TrueSmart] xs4all:
I recently got my 1/8 2100 TS watch.

I rooted using Framaroot "Version 1.9.2", you don't have to scroll down, like you I can't scroll down as well, basically when you launch the app, "Install SuperSU" is already selected.

The next option below you will see the word "Boromir", just tap on it and the root process will start, I tried 3 times with success, first on the factory firmware, then flashed the Unified rom, rooted that, however I had screen issues so I flashed back the factory firmware and rooted again.

Regards
[Ornate TrueSmart] vicer:
I had the fonts set to BIG; with small settings I can reach the bottom of the screen and root. BTW I never reached the Boromir section, it just ask me to proceed, Finally it rooted.

After reboot it stuck on Omate screen, so rebooted trough MKTtools and now everything seems to work.
[Ornate TrueSmart] dj898:
I think the instruction was NOT to reboot but instead reset to factory?

Anyhow good that you are now up and running. :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Track607:
I've been trying to root my T999 unsuccessfully for the past 2 hours..

I can't install SuperSU because I get the "supersu failed to verify whole-file signature" error.

I figured the problem is caused by the fact that I don't have CWM or TWRP installed (rather just the stock recovery), but I can't seem to install them.

I've tried using Odin and also installing it directly from the Play Store according to their instructions.

In both cases, it gets installed but when I press Home + Volume Up + Power I still don't get to the CWM or TWRP recovery screens but just the usual old stock one.

What do I do??

[Thinkpad Tablet General] amca1960:
This is a rewritten version of an earlier post.

I haven't been able to boot my TPT for about two weeks now. At first it was stuck on the spinning "CyanogenMod" logo, and would go no further; now it's stuck on the Lenovo logo. If I boot into CWM recovery (which usually takes several attempts; the first few times result in a black screen), first I get a list of errors:

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

I can't apply any of the format zip files, as any attempts to apply a zip file from either the sd card or the external sd card results in an error:

E:Can't mount /sdcard

or

E:Can't mount /external_sd/

I've tried wiping the cache and the Dalvik cache, but so far nothing has allowed me to reformat the system and boot into it. This is all very frustrating. I don't mind wiping the entire system and starting from scratch - but I would like my tablet back!

Is there any way of overcoming these "Can't mount" errors?

(I read somewhere that one option is to reformat the SD card with FAT32 and install the ROM from there; dunno if that will work through.) Anyway, suggestions are very welcome!

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can help me. I've just installed 4.4.2 google play edition on my Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505). When i attempt to make a call the screen goes black (i can still see the top task bar (wireless/radio/time)) and i get intermittent vibrations. The call actually processes as my other phones rings, however i hear no audio through the S4. To terminate the call i have to kill the Phone app. The same goes for receiving calls also.

I'm with Three in the UK and my baseband is: I9505XXUEMK9

Would anyone be able to identify what may be causing this issue or how to fix? I've tried to go back to stock via Odin however keep getting failed when it attempts to write. I've also tried different USB cables in different ports and different PCs.

Hi folks,

I have had this issue a few times now, basically when I try to tun wifi on using the quick settings tile it doesn't come on, if I then go into settings-wifi & try to turn it on using the toggle the toggle moves but doesn't change to the blue colour or say it is on, it just goes a light blue colour, if I then back out of settings & try again the toggle is back to off. I then basically have to turn the phone off & then back on (the quick boot feature in developer settings doesn't do anything) & when it boots up wifi is on.

Anybody else had this issue? The phone is getting replaced in a few days due to gap issues, over heating & camera lens not being centred anyway but just though I would check.
