[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gloris:
it shouldn't be rooted it's brand new sealed box from amazon :(

presumably, i can fix this for her by flashing the latest BTU firmware using odin?

having a look on sammobile the latest version is I9195XXUBML4? although this says black edition? if her isn't the black edition, the latest stock firmware will be I9195XXUBMJ7???

can anyone confirm this for me before i go ahead for her. this won't void warranty right, since it's stock firmware?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aronuser:
latest is I9195XXUBML4

i wonder how it's installed when it's sealed, then probably the samsung staff repacked it.

It's not so cool!!!~~

If I were you I'd send it back!

Anyway.. if you want to reflash firmware, you'll most likely get KNOX enabled! *warning* It's been reported by a user here
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gloris:
but the BML4 says "(black edition)" on sammobile.com?? can this be flashed on a non-black edition?

I'll have to check if it's rooted or not when she gets here, i'm just trying to get the right firmware downloaded before she arrives.

if i get the mj7, that doesn't say black edition i don't think, and if there is a more recent version she can get it ota right?

::EDIT::

ooops, just double checke dthe firmware database and there is a BML4 non black edition.....downloading now

::EDIT2::

yup, it's been rooted.

looks like it is an official samsung phone so far as i can tell but it's been rooted, annoyingly. i'm gonna try putting the latest btu firmware on for her, and failing that amazon can have it back.

warning to anyone buying a phone from amazon......you might not be getting what you expect!!!!

::EDIT3::

all sorted. now has totally stock firmware, knock not tripped, not rooted and everything looking good :)

thanks for helping :)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasabitobiko:
Nexus 4 running 4.4.2 bootloader version MAKOZ30d

I used Wug's root toolkit to unlock my bootloader but after reboot into fastboot, neither my windows 7 machine nor my linux mint machine will mount the phone without MTP turned on. I can run adb commands while MTP is on but drivers fail to load if mtp is off.. So now I have an unlocked bootloader and am unable to complete the rooting proces..

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttheodorou:
go to settings/storage open 3dots menu /usb computer connection. if nothing is selected that is why your phone doesn't connect. select mtp an problem solved.

if it's not that i cannot help you except suggesting to reinstall android from scratch using wug toolkit.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
You can't "mount storage" in Fastboot mode.... what

exactly

are you trying to do?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasabitobiko:
Trying to finish the rooting process by using adb.. by "mount" I mean get access in fastboot from either of my computers. Didn't have this problem with my other N4.. when I plug the phone into my computer while in fastboot and try any adb commands.. I get <waiting for device> nothing... It seems like the adb drivers aren't loading while in fastboot. I'll try to back things out using the toolkit again..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
OK, so your fastboot commands are not working, that would likely be a driver issue? If you do

fastboot devices

and get a result, then keep going, if you don't, use one of the driver options in Wugfresh's toolkit, follow the instructions TO THE LETTER...

If you are just trying to get root and are unlocked, download the latest SuperSU.zip (to your phone preferably) from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu and openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-mako.img then start phone in Fastboot mode and enter:

fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-mako.img

this will start TWRP on your device WITHOUT flashing it.

If the SuperSU zip file is on your phone, just use TWRP's Install button and navigate the file and flash it, then reboot and enjoy.

If the SuperSU zip is on your PC, then in TWRP go to Advanced, and start ADB Sideload, give it a few seconds for it to be recognized by your PC, you should be able to enter

adb devices

and get a result of SIDELOAD back, then enter:

adb sideload UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip

Or whatever the current SuperSU zip file is named. Then reboot and enjoy, your rooted!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oxious119:
Remember that adb commands only work in android and custom recovery NOT in fastboot mode.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasabitobiko:
Ok.. If I can't run adb commands from fastboot, how do I enter that command in fastboot?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
ADB sideload is a special mode that recovery can be placed into, it only allows the "sideload" command to be used. Fastboot is different, it uses the fastboot.exe program and fastboot mode on the android device to allow a limited list of features to be used.

I don't know what you are using for a rooting guide, but basically the end result is to flash SuperSU via recovery, that is all that is really needed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oxious119:
Well, basically if your boot loader is unlocked and you have a custom recovery installed just download the latest superSU zip to your SD card. Reboot into recovery, install SuperSU, reboot. Alas, you're rooted.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasabitobiko:
That's the problem.. No custom recovery installed.. Still working on the driver issue.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrFredPhD:
If you unlocked your bootloader your drivers should be working fine. If you rebooted your phone now you'd see it works fine. Next step in rooting is to flash custom recovery. Download a custom recovery, I recommend latest version of TWRP, then flash the recovery image. 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' (replace recovery.img with whatever .img file you are flashing.

Once custom recovery is installed you can boot into it to flash supersu. If using TWRP it will prompt you to root when you reboot it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasabitobiko:
Thanks.. And please don't take offense to this but re-read the thread. Ever since I used wug's rootkit to unlock the bootloader, neither my pc nor linux machine will recognize the Nexus 4. When I plug it in I get a usb error "device failed to load".. When I look at the device mgr it's listed as unknown device. Btw.. I've restarted both my phone and machine multiple times to no avail.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oxious119:
Unknown device? Youve probably installed no or wrong fastboot drivers.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasabitobiko:
UPDATE: It looks like the micro usb port on the phone is fried... had been charging fine until today. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for all the help. Does anyone know if this is a relatively easy fix?

Replacing the usb port on the Nexus 4 is super easy. Thanks for the help guys. Everything's working and root has been achieved.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] d0g:
For a while now, my phone shows this weird grey battery when it's off & charging ... not the usual green pretty battery.

It's also charging super slowly ... like 10% per hour. It discharges when on faster than it charges. Keeps dying.

And I can't change the DPI ... no settings "stick", as if I can't get permission to modify system files (build.prop etc.).

I tried fixing permissions; didn't help. Tried clean flashing (slimrom); didn't help.

It might be hardware (battery) issue, but before I give up, I thought maybe to try to re-flash the firmware?

But haven't done that in years; what's the latest procedure? Which file do I flash?

I'm on Mac, so thinking to use "Heimdall".

Do I flash a firmware, then a recovery? Do I have to root again?

Thanks

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mukeshd:
I have purchased Verizon HTC One M8(Carrier unlocked) from eBay. And I found following

1. Lot of Verizon bloatware crap installed.

2. Lots of stock apps like FM Radio, Broswer etc not installed.

3. Cant find any file explorer to delete files from external SD card.

3. In software updates section I see msg : "Software Update only work in CDMA Mode" which really pisses me off.

Is it possible to flash international RUU from HTCDev and convert my phone into International version(HTC-WWE) so that

1. I get all stock apps

2. No bloatware from Carrier including stupid boot animation.

3. Direct updates from HTC
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jova33:
You could just s-off, root, remove all the bloat, and install everything that's missing.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mukeshd:
umm...but what about the updates?

I would like to have updates from HTC for some time at least.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] robocuff:
Not possible. Not now anyway.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mashk:
Just root and install custom ROMS.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DSF:
any updates?

i got also the verizon version and have the same problem as the OP.

Any solution for a conversion to "international one" so I can use GPE with OTA and receive official unbranded HTC updates?

I live in Europe.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deefster:
Is there an international cdma?I think the problem you will run into is not having a gsm radio. There is no official gpe for cdma, so flashing custom roms might be your only choice
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DSF:
the verizon variant supports gsm network too (data works too, GSM/UMTS.. without LTE i think)... the problem are the updates, lack of features and bloatware, as the OP already stated.

So here's what I noticed. With kit Kat stock, or stock based rooms, the battery life seems really good while not using phone. It goes in to really deep sleep and sips on juice.

Whole using it, for example Clash of Clans, it literally sucks like there no tomorrow.

I see small difference between email or xda or other not graphic intensive apps.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlindeen04:
This may seem a little off, but every device has its own rooting methods, bootloader unlocking methods, and development methods in general. I was wondering if there has been any development aimed at a universal method to install a new bootloader which is opensource, unlocked and non encrypted, followed by a universal android installer which would initially boot into a gui similar to a linux installation which would already have core drivers to get the basics in order and then download packages via wifi to tailer this "universal android distribution" to the hardware components that make up the device being installed on?

Imagine it similar to the typical Linux Mint / Debian / Ubuntu install...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Byrne3155:
Hey guys,

so I had rooted my Note II quite a while back with CM 11 I believe, and all worked well except my GPS didn't work. After every possible fix I just said screw it and went months with no GPS. I finally got sick of it and decided to just start fresh and went back to stock 4.1. My idiot self though did the Verizon updates all the way to 4.3....

I've been reading around and rooting my phone now that it's on 4.3 seems pretty difficult - is there any for sure methods yet so I can root it and if I decide to, flash a ROM?

It's 4.3 currently and the kernel is: 3.0.31

Thanks guys

No luck unfortunately :(

It started sending the files and then said:

Your kernel is patched!

This device is not supported.

Then it cleans phone up and ends.

If needed, here's the info on the phone i'm running:

Model: SCH-I605

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattnmag:
[MENTION=5867888]Byrne3155[/MENTION],

Because you're on very latest build (VRUAND3), saferoot will not work.

Other users are reporting that they successfully used ODIN to restore their phone to the 4.3/MJ9 build....which saferoot does work for. (See this thread.... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2752360 ).

It worked, I confirmed my build is now MJ9:

So I downloaded the SafeStrap from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2693131), allowed Unknown source installs, installed it, opened it, and just like before everything is disabled:

[MENTION=5867888]Byrne3155[/MENTION],

Good job with restoring back to MJ9. ;)

You are confusing safestrap and saferoot---they sound similar but are totally different. safeStrap won't help you gain root access because it's not used to root a phone....it is used to help someone load a custom Rom After gaining root.

You will need to use safeRoot to gain root access. Here's the link to saferoot-- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48392009

I would really encourage you to do more reading and really learn the differences between saferoot and safestrap before you do a lot more to your phone. I'd hate to hear you report back later that you ended up bricking your phone.

Good luck if you decide to continue with your rooting adventures :).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Byrne3155:
Yikes, sorry about that I'm an idiot ha. I got the two mixed you're right.

I'm fairly comfortable with rooting and the whole process, but the VZW Note II definitely played tough since I made the error of using the OTA updates all the day zzz.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ynjh:
I'VE FOUND A WORKAROUND of this no-push-notif during deep sleep problem.

Earlier, I tried holding partial wakelock so the device never sleep, this of course works alright, but drains battery very rapidly (5% / 30mins).

This is NOT ACCEPTABLE.

So, I tried something else :

automatically waking up the device regularly every 30mins, with the help of Tasker (which doesn't turn on the screen at all).

The result is :

7 hours after screen off and a good night sleep, in the morning I sent myself a BBMsg and it arrived perfectly in about 5 secs.

Battery consumption is totally acceptable : only 4% drop during 7 hours (dual sim ON, data ON).

That's days ago, and still works perfectly until now, I'm happy with it, so I'd like to share the AWESOMENESS.

I'm not sure about push notif from Google servers via GCM, I don't use any app which takes advantage of GCM, I only use BBM which uses its own servers.

In this case, you should first try adjusting heartbeat interval using PushNotificationFixer (which can't help me since it only resends heartbeat to Google server).

Tasker setup :

1. create new profile : Time

* uncheck both start & end time (so it starts and ends from midnight to midnight)

* check Repeat : every 6 minutes (during deep sleep, this 6 mins expands 5x to 30 mins)

2. add new task :

what you do in this task doesn't really matter, the point is to do something in a regular interval (I only use Alert Morse, so I know that the profile is still running)

GODSPEED !!!!

PS. :

if you're not familiar with Tasker, after installation you have to :

1. allow it as admin (system Settings > Device Administrators)

2. turn on its service (system Settings > Accessibility)

3. put it on auto-start list
