[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBEmerson:
I installed FoxFi and PDANet on my S5. The process required me to use a PIN or password instead of a pattern for the screen lock. For now, I can live without PDANet/FoxFi. I tried to back them out but I'm still stuck with using a PIN or password for the screen lock. The message for anything else is "Turned off by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage." I cleared the FoxFi certificate - no change. I wrote JuneFabrics about this. No reply. No storage is encrypted. I didn't intentionally change anything as sysadmin. That leaves either the FoxFi certificate (now gone) or...???

How do I undo this curse on my phone???

FWIW, the phone is rooted (bless you, geohot!).

Hey guys, I have a sim unlocked s-off Sprint M8.

Yesterday I chose USA band accidentally through *#*#4636#*#*. I live in China, now I cannot find any signal with my WCDMA network.

I tried everything during the last 16 hours including flashing the Harman RUU, but it did not work.

Will a stock sprint radio flash solve my problem? I looked everywhere but could not find a stock radio for sprint M8:crying::crying::crying:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakneat:
I've run into a problem with my S4. I'm rooted, and running Hyperdrive 15.

My phone refuses to boot quite often. Sometimes it will boot up perfectly fine and run for a day - day and a half, or it'll lockup and then refuse to boot up again, OR it will just not boot at all. My power button seems to be unresponsive, and the only way that I can get some action out of the phone is by reseating the battery in the well.

What I think it is, could be 1 of a few things, or a combination of them - i'm not sure.

Scenario 1: While playing with the Hyperdrive tweaks, my phone was hung after running the Zipalign tool for over 20 minutes and I had to pull the battery.

Scenario 2: I'm deployed on a ship currently, and I have my phone in a high-salt enviornment and I'm afraid that there might be salt corrosion inside of the power switch or the USB connection - shorting it out. I took my phone apart tonight and cleaned both items with isopropyl alcohol ( the switch itself on the main board ) but that didn't seem to produce any new results.

Scenario 3: I was recently rooting a Kindle Fire HD 7" for a friend out here, and I was dumb and didn't realize that I was pushing boot loader files that were designed for the Kindle Fire and not for my Galaxy S4. I have since tried to enter recovery, but with little avail. Download mode is also out.

A description of what my phone does when I reseat the battery: My phone will vibrate, the Galaxy S4 logo will show for 1.5 to 2 seconds ( same for download mode ) and if I hold the appropriate button, ' Recovery Booting.... ' will display as well. At that point, my phone will shutoff and the power button will become unresponsive.

If anyone can give me a bit of guidance on how to proceed to repairing my phone, I'd be super grateful.

This sounds like the most plausible reason.

You will need something like JTAG to really fix it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakneat:
Lennyz1988, thanks for the quick reply. Internet out here is slow at best, and sometimes unusable.

As far as your JTAG option, I believe that would work, except that I dont have access to that kind of hardware right now. Sending my phone out at this point entails a month of transit time on each side of the turnaround time required for someone to re-flash my phone, and I wholly believe that I can do this.

As an update to my phone, it will not charge the battery anymore. I'll use someone elses phone to charge my battery soon. If anyone can give me a direction to go as far as how to completely reflash my phone IF it turns on, i'd be grateful beyond belief. I dont want to believe that if I can get it to start up again, that it is a total brick and completely useless - if it turns on again, i need someway to push new boot loader files to it. Really hoping someone can help.

Thanks again in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Thestorm77:
I'm using a rooted stock AT&T Samsung Note SGH-717. I looked at my data usage today for a completely unrelated reason, and discovered that something called "10290" had burned through 1.24G on wifi. Then I found a couple other 5-digit bandits that hadn't made nearly as big a dent.

It does appear to have stopped its deluge about a week ago. "Coincedentally", I used Link2SD to move some apps around at about that time.

My greatest concern is to find out if this *is* a concern, if these apps could be malware.

I've done several searches and am shocked that I can't find any other answer, so here I am. I can't begin to guess where to start looking for this solution.

Thanks for any help available!

Yes, thats what he means. Going to app manager and clearing cache

I had updated everything before I used towelroot, so I can only help in saying that a few days ago I updated with no problem.

I might also try a difference between WIFI and Data attempting to update.

yes sir or drag it to the app drawer on top it says App Info you can clear it from there
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Namikaze Minato:
I just tried to go through app manager and clear the cache and it still doesn't fix the problem. I'm thinking the only way to get around this would to be uproot and then update and root again. My only complaint about that way is - do I have to do that everytime these apps want to update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] johns86:
I've updated plenty of apps since then. I wouldn't get carried away right off the bat.

There are several factors that could be preventing it from updating that are out of your control. Next thing I'd try, a stupid, yet simple. turn off, pull battery, turn on and try again. If that doesn't work just wait 12 or 24 hours before attempting again.

Like I said before, stuff out of your control, servers, networks, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Namikaze Minato:
FOUND IT!

I'm sorry for all the trouble guys but I found the problem. What I forgot was that I froze the Samsung appstore app from within titanium backup. Realizing those are Samsung apps and not the playstore apps and defrosting the Samsung appstore is what fixed the problem.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doublehp:
Hello.

I have rooted my phone using

http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-to/unlock-bootloader-root-your-htc-one-m8-0154444/

(in short, it's using SuperSU 2.00)

After some efforts, Root Checker says i am fine. I can get id 0 from adb, and via ssh.

But ... Busybox fails to install.

And if I remount /system RW, and mess in there a bit (like mkdir /system/tmp ), the mess is removed after reboot. Changes are not permanent.

Must I change my su app for superuser mentionned in the FAQ of the section (via recovery) ? Are there things to do before this migration ?

Other possible issues ?

I am used to fully unlocked HTC Sensation, where I changes to /system are easily permanent. But it was done using an exploit, few before HTC allowed rooting officially. Rooted M8 does not seem as much friendly ...

I *really* need busybox to work, and make permanent changes to /system. I am stuck.

Thanks.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akitten007:
The /system partition is write protected on stock, meaning you can't add, modify, or delete files there. To disable this, you need to flash a kernel or rom with this disabled. Pretty much all sense based roms/kernels will state this in the features. I believe S-Off also disables it if you want to go the extra mile.

PS: Write protection is disabled in recovery. That is why superuser/root could be installed there.

PPS: Here is the kernel I run (protection disabled): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2705613
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doublehp:
So, is there a way to install busybox via recovery ?

I did 3 things in recovery: all in /system/xbin

- chmod +s su

- touch t

- mkdir tmp

after reboot to normal mode, SUID bit was removed, but t and tmp are still here.

So, how do I install busybox ?

New issue: /data has the nodev flag; is it possible to remove it ?

I did not found /dev/shm ; was it moved somewhere else ? Any other place for similar use ? (world write temp folder in RAM).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doublehp:
If your kernel allows me to install busybox, can i backup my original kernel to restaure it afterwards ?

Can I install busybox manually via recovery+adb ? I don't have any dev suite, but a good linux station; so, I can unzip, list, copy, and so on ... if there is not too much work to do.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akitten007:
Now you're starting to go over my head. If you want to keep your current kernel, I would try using this method here to manually add the module that disables the protection http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2702575. I usually just install busybox using rom toolbox or any other busybox app. You could search for a busybox zip, but just disabling the write protection is a better option in my opinion. And I have actually 0.00 idea what flags mean on folders (sorry).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
I rooted using TWRP recovery and super su. That guide you posted gives unnecessary instructions. TWRP automatically installs the SU binary and Super su the first time you boot into it. I was able to update Super su via google play, no need for the update zip. Just follow the instructions after rebooting to system from TWRP recovery.

I'm s-off, unlocked, my kernel, firmware and os are stock, only thing that isn't is recovery. I have write access to system and external sd card. All I did was make it writable with root explorer and have installed busy box no problem using this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox.
