everything BUT the 801 unless you roll back to stock 4.2.2 JB. plus, there is no computer involved here...its a simple app.

OP, I was NOT able to get this to work for some reason....I rolled back to 4.2.2 stock, updated via OTA to 4.4.2, tried Towelroot app with no success.

were there any special instructions you did? or is this more of a temporary root? I didn't have SU installed after the reboot, and a Flashify Recovery Flash failed (it worked before on 4.2.2 for me)

Edit: apparently Flashify was the cause...downloaded AutoRec and all is well. thanks OP!

FWIW, this method also worked for my G-Pad 8.3 from Verizon.

Please help my D801 display is not working when coming out of sleep

So I just picked up a used D801 T-mobile on 4.4.2.

Took the following steps

Installed TowelRoot

Installed AutoRec

Downloaded CloudyStock

Ran TowelRoot including reboot (no indication of error)

Ran AutoRec and rebooted into TWRP (no indication of error)

In TWRP wiped and installed CloudyStock

Rebooted

Everything looked fine, but once I put the phone to sleep or if it goes to sleep automatically, when I try to wake the device all I get on the screen are white lines.

If I hold down the power button and reboot, the phone will reboot work with no issues, but once it goes to sleep the same thing happens again.

Please help!
[G2 Themes and Apps] Boot_Derran:
Download cloudyfa jdi kernel for ur device should fix that
[G2 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
I'm a stock user but I believe that has something to do with autorec from what I remember reading. Look on the T-Mobile G2 for for help. I believe there is a fix for that...
[G2 Themes and Apps] Elchemist:
Thanks!

Just flashed and it works now.
[G2 Themes and Apps] scottx .:
Yeah the white lines are from the kernel. It happens on nexus devices if you use a cm kernel on an aosp ROM and vice versa.

Thanks for helping in here guys while I was at work.

if I 4.4.3 flashe remains a Rom with Android root then available?

so i did everything but when i went to superSU it says there is no SU bianry installed, what can i do?

---------- Post added at 12:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

can you help me? i did everything and when i went to super su it says there is no su binary installed, what do i do now?
[G2 Themes and Apps] scottx .:
Say what?

Well that's a problem I had too. So I installed twrp with autorec and installed SuperSU via recovery.

You'll have to do it that way if you want to update it. It'll be rooted like it is without updating it but I'd do the twrp method.
[G2 Themes and Apps] jayrs97:
i did do it that way, i installed twrp and flash the super su file i that was in the description but i dont get root access or it says no su binary. do i need to flash a new version of super su or reflash it?
[G2 Themes and Apps] Dr.Franz:
worked just fine, I have root again

I now use CloudyFlex 2.4 Android 4.4.2

Now I flash CM11 with Android 4.4.3

If root then?

I have a LG D802 international
[G2 Themes and Apps] Lawlrus:
Yes you will retain root. As a precaution google chainfire supersu zip.

If you flash a rom, and dont have root, reboot into recovery and flash that, open play store and make sure you have supersu installed. Open supersu and update binaries/reboot if needed.
[G2 Themes and Apps] jayrs97:
Oh man I got it to work , I just flashed a newer zip file and it worked.

Not sure. I think so. Google it and you'll find the answer you seek.
[G2 Themes and Apps] ingoljosh:
I also got those white lines of death after installing AutoRec.

Why did this happen

I restored my phone back to stock using THESE instructions and all is good now but i am scared to try again. is there a safer way to get TWRP without getting those lines?

has anyone else experienced this?.
[G2 Themes and Apps] Skizzy034:
Lol read up a couple posts. T-Mobile?
[G2 Themes and Apps] scottx .:
Please guys if you need help with autorec use the proper thread. They have a thread just for it. This isn't the place for that.
[G2 Themes and Apps] Tinchoska:

[G2 Themes and Apps] scottx .:

[G2 Themes and Apps] fernievidal:
Nice info. Still I'm having doubts in rooting my d802.
[G2 Themes and Apps] scottx .:
Why? I've always unlocked my devices. since my first one. it's like having root on a Linux or hell, any Unix machine. like having the administrator account on windows. it's necessary to properly use it in my opinion.

I'm primarily a nexus / stock android kind of guy. So to get aosp on this g2 made it usable. I hated it before.

[G2 Themes and Apps] cisky78:
Hello Guys,

I have 2 question, should I remove the check in "verify application" under security (i'm translating from Italian, so the option could be slightly different) before installing the tr.apk? Because it's giving me an error and it doesn't start the installation process.

After that, do you know if i can install the xdabbeb mod (for the slomo camera recording), witch is for me the main reason why i'm trying to root?

Some detais attached, thanks a lot in advance!

[G2 Themes and Apps] scottx .:
Yes. Even though it shouldn't give that error message you can remove that setting. It'll be okay. If you want to turn it back on after then go ahead.

Samsung phones have apps that disable the triangle from flashing. On this you must go back to stock for warranty issues.

Rooting and unlocking bootloaders always voids the warranty.

Hi, newb question here: if I plan to stay on stock rom (I just want to debloat the phone), is it necessary to install AutoRec?

I downloaded towelroot, made it rain, then installed SuperSU from the Play Store. Root Checker confirms that I'm rooted. It literally took 2 minutes so I'm just wondering if this is permanent, since I don't want to mess around with recovery and things I don't know about at all. Thanks in advance!

Ur correct, (just did this myself)

Just towelrooted myself and installed SuperSU from the Play Store. Then installed Greenify & WakeLockDetector; both asked for SU permissions and got it from SuperSU.

Root achieved.

Autorec seems only for recovery, and has chances it will require a kernel flash soon after else there are issues with white lines on screen..

REG HACK - Turn off GPRS totally (and back to working state) without going to setting

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

REG HACK - Turn off GPRS totally (and back to working state) without going to settings

1: You need a Registry editor ( eg. Resco Explorer )

2: Find the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\

3: under that , you should see you GPRS settings , for example , mine 's OPTUS GPRS Internet , OPTUS GPRS MMS etc , pick the right one and export it to the *.REG file, and name it to something like " GPRS ON.reg "

4: Modify the setting inside ( for example OPTUS GPRS Internet ) , and change the Enabled value from 1 to 0, then export it to GPRS OFF.reg

use the GPRS ON /OFF .reg to toggle between GPRS always off and on when required.

Happy Registry editing

My phone is on unofficial CM11 developed by [MENTION=4716493]laufersteppenwolf[/MENTION].

The GPS is working but just couldn't lock any Glonass satellite. I have tried almost all gps.conf in XDA that claim to fix GPS with no lock.

In particular, I tried the patch from this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2455885.

Still, my phone doesn't capture any Glonass satellite.

The hardware side should be fine as it can lock normal U.S. GPS satellites.

But without the help of Glonass, the locking takes much longer time.

Anyone shares the same symptom? Could it a bug in the existing CM11 build?

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] MattMJB0188:
If the developer edition is bought directly from HTC's website, does that mean, despite the unlocked bootloader, it still has a valid warranty? I wouldn't have to anything except flash a custom recovery, right? Does AT&T's network place nicely with the developer edition?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
That is a really good question. HTC technically reserves the right to void a warranty for any phone that has the bootloader unlocked, and yet this phone comes from the manufacturer BL unlocked. In practice it seems (from reports on XDA, at least) that HTC's enforcement of their policies is inconsistent at best. I've seen reports of unlocked bootloader is ok (warranty still honored) but custom ROM is not (even if returned to stock ROM, there apparently is some mechanism to tell if a custom ROM was

ever

installed); some reports of modding ok since the failure was hardware related, and other stories.

I suppose you can raise the question to HTC. But what they tell you, and what actually happens in practice may end up being two different things.

As far as compatibility with AT&T's network, from my understanding the hardware is exactly the same, just a non-AT&T branded ROM and bootloader unlocked. So it should work just fine on AT&T's network.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] MattMJB0188:
Thank you for your response. Yeah, after using Samsung devices for years, I kind of got use to them haha. I wasn't sure if HTC had a knox like warranty. Hopefully it performs well on AT&T, some have stated the signal is about average. I know with the T-Mobile Galaxy S5, for example, the reception was not has good as AT&T's own S5. That's why I ask. Sometimes the carriers optimize their devices so that they work better than unlocked devices.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] garyd9:
Hardware-wise, the AT&T and DevEd phones are identical. The radio firmware is different, but I haven't noticed any particular difference going between the original AT&T radio (original stock firmware without any OTA's) and either of the two DevEd radio firmware's (original radio firmware and the radio firmware on the DevEd OTA.)

In terms of the warranty, HTC reserves the right to not honor the warranty for either of the model if the phone is modified. Being that the bootloader is already unlocked on the DevEd, that's not considered a modification. (On the AT&T device, unlocking the bootloader IS a modification.)

In actual practice, I've never seen a phone manufacturer void a hardware warranty for software modifications -- unless the manufacturer had good reason to believe that the software modification caused hardware to fail. (For example, a processor burns up from overclocking, screens that developed defects from being over-driven, etc.)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] MattMJB0188:
Thanks. This is exactly what I wanted to hear. I re-ordered the Developer Edition in Gold. Should be here tomorrow. It's seem like very promising device. May not even root it.
