It isn't a matter of not wanting to help. He provided no useful information. The method of rooting varies by device and firmware version, so if he didn't provide that, then nobody can provide the correct information.

I don't recommend using Kingo. It collects a large amount of information on your device including hardware IDs and serials and sends them to a server in China, supposedly in order to download drivers. It does facilitate that, but just the model number could achieve the same. They even used to collect your IMEI until they were caught and stopped. Not exactly trustworthy behaviour.

If you're running 4.2.2 or older, use Root many Android by trusted XDA dev Bin4ry to root. It doesn't collect any info or even connect to the internet.

Here is a post I made in another thread regarding downgrading/rooting.

This may be helpful as well - How to flash stock roms with Flashtool

The images in that tutorial are broken, but the text explanation should help.

It is also possible to root then upgrade OTA and keep root, but it requires SuperSU Pro. If that's the route you want to take, then after downgrading, instead of flashing a recovery-

Root with Root many Android

Enable OTA survival mode in SuperSu Pro

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electronical:
I've had my HTC One M7 for almost 10 months now and i haven't encountered any issues except for one thing which has been bugging me for a long time... Whenever i got an earphone/headphone plugged into the audio jack (i tried different kinds, all without mics/volume control, including ipod earphones and the original HTC One M7 earphones from the retail box), my HTC One M7 automatically dials the last contact i called in my phone log and it appears to do this randomly. I have been apologizing to my friends and relatives more than a few times in the past months but recently my call log showed automatic calls at 3AM to some of my friends since i fell asleep listening to music, which is really embarrassing since they are my co-workers and i had to explain to them about my phone issue, so they blocked my number for waking them up at night. :silly: I can't blame them but can someone please suggest a solution?

Also, i noticed that the issue is not restricted to automatic redials... it also causes my music to stop or start playing randomly whenever i have an earphone plugged into the phone. I'm using the HTC music app so i'm not sure if using another music app fixes this problem?

I have been researching about this problem and at first i thought it might be an issue with my phone in particular or the custom ROM that i am using (it's the latest ARHD which is pretty stable among all ROMs) but then i discovered that this is an HTC hardware issue which has plagued most of their phones. The problem has not been fixed with the M7, which is very sad since the M7 turned things around for HTC. It happens whenever the earphone jack gets nudged or receives a tiny shock which is enough to cause the wiring to short and act crazy!

I found a software solution although i am not sure if this will fix it.

Headset Button Controller

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kober.headsetbutton

What are the optimal settings to use in that app to prevent this problem? Has anyone tried it?

This problem is incredibly annoying. Can someone please suggest a reliable and permanent solution? I don't want to get rid of my M7... but i will have to, if this problem cannot be fixed correctly and permanently.

There is apparently a free (and better?) app called Headset Blocker

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.idunnolol.headsetblocker

But the problem with that app is the restricted support for Android 1.5 - 3.2 so it will not support Jelly Bean nor Kitkat. :confused:

[Google Chromecast] Keenana:
Hi, this might be a silly question as I am not entirley sure how the ChromeCast works. I understand it is basically just the phone sending a link and token/authentication to the chromecast so it can go and play whatever you are requesting, but once it is playing music using say Google Music is it aware of the whole playlist and what is next?

I guess what I am asking is once music is initiated to the Chromecast and it's playing music is there anyway to send a next song command to the Chromecast itself so it can skip to the next song in teh playlist without the command having to come from the phone? The reason I ask is I am doing a very cutomized home automation setup for my buddy and this would be great if we could send a next song etc to the chromecast itself from Eventghost or just commandline or something.

Thanks in advance!
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
It is possible but to answer the question more directly, NO the CCast really has no idea what is next (in most cases) because it is not playing a playlist it is playing the song itself.

The CCast has no playlist functions of it's own so it is up to the App to work this out and it appears to be more difficult to do that I thought it would be.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
I'm not 100% sure, but I think the playlist remains on the casting device in most cases. That's why playlists can fail if the casting device goes to deep sleep or otherwise becomes unreachable by Chromecast when the song ends. Some of the apps may have worked around this by buffering part of the playlist on Chromecast.

Since you mentioned EventGhost, I assume your automation system has a controller of some sorts. In that case I would look toward "driving" Chromecast from the controller, and letting the phone/tablet/computer send requests to the controller, rather than to Chromecast itself.

But the general availability of Chromecast on the network opens it to a lot of unknowns. If you go with centralized control of Chromecast, I would definitely put it on a different network from the general clients to avoid confusion or accidental control hijacking.
[Google Chromecast] Keenana:
Thanks for prompt replies guys, this makes sense. I didn't think it would be possible, but figured if anyone knew it would be on here.

I'll look more into managing everything centrally as suggested, that was my other plan I just thought if it was possible I could get some pretty cool stuff going but this will work.

Thanks!
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
i think in the end the playlist functionality has to be done on the server side of things where CCast is concerned...

So the Playlist is built on the server side and the CCast Receiver merely notifies the server it is done playing a file and the server then sends the next file in the list.

It will then pair with the device and connect to it, but when you go to the active connections, only the device shows in the outgoing connections.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lineman78:
I asked this in the D801 forum, but no responses. I guess I will try here as I assume the answer will probably be the same.

I am trying to get my D801 to work fully with my new car with GM's Intellilink system which seems to be white listing BT MAC addresses from what I can tell and I am trying to spoof my address so that it appears as a Galaxy S3 or S4. I think I have a MAC address from an older Samsung device, so if someone would like to provide the BT Address from their S3, S4, Note2 or Note3 that would be awesome. However that in and of itself is a moot point as I have tried to edit both the /data/misc/btaddr and /data/misc/bluedroid/bt_config.xml files and neither seem to hold/apply when I reboot. I have system mounted r/w and change the permissions to 755 before editing. I am running CM11 M6. Can anyone either suggest how I can spoof my BT address or any other ideas on how to get my phone to work with GM's system. I can get it to connect for phone only; no media, text or other.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] sw6lee:
Hey thanks! Already finished! I was really busy, but before that I actually exchanged my 7 inch for an 8 inch. Does this tweak also work for 8 inch? I am guessing it is because you just said Tab 4 without screen size. Also, you are aware that tab 4 7.0 has Marvell quad core chip while 8.0.and 10.1 has snapdragon 400, right? Just making sure cause you don't have this tablet and maybe you weren't sure.

I'm still deciding if I should keep my ipad and return this tab 4 8.0 or keep this tab 4 and sell my ipad. Ahh can't decide! There are both goods and bads..

Anyway, I'll try this tweak soon. I hope other users will also find this tweak helpful.

Thanks!

did it install all of the prerequisite components? busybox etc?

you ran this through script manager correct?

did you go in and modify the nobloat.txt (per the instructions)

Remember I don't have this device I am flying blind abd need some detailed information in order to help.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] smknutson:
I am rooted yes. I also had busybox preinstalled. I did run through script manager as linked, with su chosen.

I didn't touch the nobloat.txt at all, rebooted twice immediately and checked for the two files that didn't appear

The only problem I initially encountered was i am unable access menu of script manager, so i had skipped that step about the text size

The next version will be completely rewritten will run through adb commands with your device connected to your PC (Sorry windows version only)
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] cstayton:
you will need to modify the nobloat.txt file for your device (remember I don't have the tab 4 so the txt file is based on my tab3)

you really need to change the menu size so you can see the prompts and answer them appropriately it should work the only reason i can think of that it didnt is that kitkat behaves differently but it shouldnt as far as running scripts go. you mentioned read only which leads me to believe that the system folder did not get write access correctly.

ill look thru the script and see if i can find anything that needs changing
