Thank you for your help. I hit reboot and it came back on and I still have root.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charesa39:

How did you root your N10?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jideay:
It was so long ago I don't remember... I realized I have several apps frozen. Should I unfreeze them and try again?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charesa39:
That shouldn't be it. What error does it give you when you try to update? It will say what is keeping it from updating. If you have deleted/uninstalled and system apps (not just disabled), the update will fail. It's hard to diagnose without more info.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jideay:
There was no error that I saw. I just tried looking for the 4.4.3 update and it won't come back. I guess I'll need to wait... Thanks again for your help.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charesa39:
Since 4.4.4 is already out, why don't you just fastboot flash everything EXCEPT USERDATA from the 4.4.4 factory image. As long as you don't flash userdata, your data will remain intact.

EDIT: Oh. For future reference, the OTAs are downloaded to /cache on your device.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jideay:
OK now I'm trying to flash 4.4.4. I got the tab into bootloader but forgot to turn in usb debugging. It is in recovery and my only options are start, recovery, power off. How do I get back to normal operation?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charesa39:
You don't need USB debugging when in the bootloader. That's only for when you are already booted up in the Android OS. To make sure you're good to go, open up a command window in the platform-tools folder (or wherever the fastboot and adb programs were installed on your computer) and type "fastboot devices". Obviously, without the quotation marks. You should see the serial number for your device appear. That means you're good to go with the drivers. Then, you can flash the factory image.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jideay:
OK I am trying to use the Nexus Root Toolkit and that's what it's telling me. I'll try it the other way when I get home.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charesa39:
I strongly advise AGAINST using a toolkit. Especially since (no offense) you don't seem to know the basics of what you are trying to do. I recommend following this guide: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701. It's for the Nexus 5, but the procedure for the Nexus 10 (as well as the Nexus 7 (2013)) is identical. Just make sure you have the correct 4.4.4 factory image for our device (manta). Since you have already used the toolkit in the past, you probably already have the drivers. Just flash each image file individually by following Method 2 in the OP from that thread. If you don't want to lose your data, DO NOT FLASH USERDATA.IMG.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1pro:
Updated: It was merely coincidental that when I rooted, I also reached a 5gb limit on my data plan. The first Verizon rep I talked to, probably like most, refused to admit there was any throttling going on and was willing to send me a new SIM card rather than tell me the truth.

However our tech department today did get a Verizon representative to admit that our corporate unlimited data plan actually does throttle users starting as early as 5 gigabytes. The decision of when to throttle is market dependent. Therefore in crappy little congested markets like mine where there is not a lot of good bandwidth to begin with, throttling can come as early as 5 gigabytes. However in bigger cities, throttling is not likely not to occur until higher data usage has been met. Verizon's corporate unlimited plan is unlimited where you get unlimited data, but after a certain point you can be throttled to unusably slow one x speed. Unlike T Mobile, Verizon does not admit readily that they do this and does not put this on their website. I have to give tmobile respect for being more upfront and honest in the first place about their very similar plans.

Everything from the original thread below is answered in the paragraph above.

So here's my conundrum. I recently had to Oden my s5 back to stock because something went wrong when enabling download booster. After re-installing stock with Oden, doing download booster (no issues the second time) and several other tweaks, including getting SHealth and XPosed to play friendly, removing all the other bloat via the script running around this forum and adding buttons to the notification panel, I have noticed my data is really slow (Data plan only, WiFi is fine).

REALLY Slow!

I know it's not Verizon, as I have two Verizon phones (S5 and Razr M) and the Razr works fine - in fact, multiple speed tests show the Razr M getting speeds 500-1000x faster than my S5. My S5 clocks in at or below 0.1 Mb/S. I didn't discover the problem until leaving the house and realizing that I didn't have enough data to stream Songza or Milk or tunein once I wasn't on my home network.

The s5 shows the 4GLTE symbol and does have a data flowing... it's just like looking at Early Era Dial Up when next to my other device on the same network. The phone itself is speedy and shows no signs of issue. Like I said, I didn't know there was a problem until I finally left the house.

I had noticed that the download booster wasn't useful for me as the LTE speeds were always too slow so it just went with WiFi in my testing, so this tells me that the error occurred very shortly after flashing stock with Oden. The Oden image I used was: ALL_VZW_G900VVRU1ANCG_G900VVZW1ANCG_964333_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 I thought this to be the correct one for my phone.

Before the reflashing, my phone was speedy on the verizon network. In fact, I had used it to tether a few times as it was better for streaming the World Cup than Time Warner on ESPN3. FWIW, I am on an unlimited corporate data plan with the S5.

Thoughts, please?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WillTheGreat:
Try switching between Global to LTE/CDMA or vice versa. I noticed that my data speeds tend to change with the settings. Prior to rooting, speed test after speed test in the same location it was quicker with LTE/CDMA than Global.

Since rooting my data rate was significantly slower under LTE/CDMA than Global, switched it back and I felt like the speed test were coming back to normal. Which is odd because I just assumed it only altered with whether or not it looks for GSM signal when roaming.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1pro:
Sadly I had already tried this. It was on Global to start, I switched, no help, and switched back (as my working phone is also on Global, so I assumed that was the correct default setting on Verizon. Thanks for the idea though. :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1pro:
It's the Sim Card (or account)

Out of curiosity I switched the sim cards between my personal phone (limited GB standard plan) with my work phone (unlimited corporate plan). With my personal card in my work phone, the speed is again blazing. Once I put the correct sim card in, the speed drops to near zero. I did this test twice.

So does that mean Verizon puts a data speed limit on unlimited corporate accounts when they wish, or does that mean something is wrong with the sim card? I didn't think Verizon limited their data speeds on an individual basis on LTE. I also didn't think they limited their corporate data plans, but it would seem as if they do.

Does anyone have any insider knowledge about this? Thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WillTheGreat:
If swapping SIM cards fixed the problem then you probably have a bad sim, or it went bad. You can ask for a new one.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1pro:
Sadly, I got a new SIM and it didn't work either. Swapping SIMs confirms that it is a sim issue, though, as I have one non working SIM that doesn't work in two phones and one working SIM that works in two phones. Sadly, Big Red has now sent me to non-functioning SIMs as far as I can tell.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mw2fan:
I hace an s-offed M8, with an unlocked bootloader.

However, it has an issue and needs to be returned to warranty.

If you're s-off you can remove all the tampered warnings and when you lock your bootloader it'll be changed to "locked" instead of relocked.

If I restore to complete stock and perform all these steps and undo the s-off, will HTC honour my warranty?

Or is your IMEI given to HTC when you unlock it through HTC DEV and they blacklist you?

Anyone with any experience regarding this would be much appreciated.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] an0ther:
They know you unlocked. I would lock bootloader and leave it soff. Going s-on throws a tampered label. If they try to charge you just argue that you are not unlocked and they must prove that unlocking broke your phone. If you are in the US you should be good. Harder if you are in another country.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jyotirdeb:
Ya you shouldn't have problem.But you shouldn't try to go to s-on this may cause problem.Just change the label to Locked and restore nandbackup/Stock rom and you are good to go! ;)

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] thesawolf:
Salutations folks,

Before you get ready to get your flame on, I'm NOT asking about the STATUS of a RT Windows 8.1 Jailbreak. I'm posting about jailbreaks in general. I'm from a linux/android background. I got an Asus Vivotab RT LTE (AT&T version) for a steal off 1Sale. Before I even looked into doing anything with my tablet, I updated it to 8.1. Then I finally got around to looking into running desktop apps on Windows RT (not knowing how it all worked with RT vs desktop), I ran into the issue of not being able to run them (duh, right?). Then I found out about jailbreaking. So.. do you HAVE to jailbreak to run desktop apps? As I understand it, we currently have to run 8.0 to jailbreak/run desktop apps, yes? Well.. I obtained the Asus recovery files to downgrade my 8.1 to 8.0. On a whim, I updated my 8.1 with the 8.1 big spring update (basicly 8.1.1). I seem to be able to run some of the ported desktop apps without any problem. Am I missing something? How'd my tablet manage that without having run the jailbreak? And jailbreak doesn't work on 8.1 anyways? Before anyone says I'm full of it.. (you can click the thumbnail for full pic)

(windows rt 8.1 with 8.1 spring update installed)

(windows rt 8.1 running desktop 7zip)

(windows rt 8.1 running desktop putty)

(windows rt 8.1 running desktop notepad++)

Can anyone clarify if I'm missing something or I've come across an anomaly or even a blessed relief?

Thanks.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jimmielin:
This is sure amazing o_O

1. Can you run *any* unsigned application or only a few work (and the rest throw signature errors?)

2. Check the status of Secure Boot in PowerShell. Run as admin, "Get-SecureBootPolicy", press enter (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj603043.aspx)

3. Could you detail exactly your process? I understand that you did the following:

(On 8.1) Run unsigned desktop app, fail with digital signature error.

(Downgrade) Downgrade to 8.0 -> (On 8.0) Run Jailbreak -> Run Desktop Apps and they work.

(Upgrade) Upgrade to Windows RT 8.1 (via Store?) -> Upgrade to 8.1.1 (Spring Update) via Windows Update -> Run Desktop Apps and they work (partly or all of them?)

4. I'm not sure if it'd be any useful, but perhaps you could look in your EFI system partition (mountvol S: /s) as there has been a previous report of Asus leaving debug tools in VivoTab RTs before (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2477285). If you could retrieve a "debug" version of Secure Boot Policy from your EFI partition then it means that Secure Boot has just disabled itself on your tablet. It's highly unlikely, however, since you weren't able to run desktop apps in your original 8.1 install...
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] thesawolf:
I only grabbed the ported Putty, 7zip and Notepad++ desktop apps as those were the only ones that I was needing.. Oh I recently grabbed the FileZilla one too. All ran without any problems and never got any signature errors. Hell.. even my 7zip integrated into the shell and replaced archive icons with 7zip archive icons and opens my archives by default with the desktop app. Were there any particular applications you wanted me to try so that I can see if I can replicate any signature errors?

SecureBoot is enabled and it displays a Publisher GUID. Confirm-SecureBootUEFI confirms SecureBoot is enabled too.

hmm

- Received clean OEM install Vivotab RT LTE with RT 8.0

- Upgrade to Windows RT 8.1 via Store

- (attempted to run some ported desktop apps, received error)

- was going to downgrade back to 8.0 after getting Asus recovery files but instead..

- Upgrade to RT 8.1.1 (Spring Update) via Windows Update

- (attempted to run some ported desktop apps, ran successfully, no errors)

NOTE: Not once had I ever gotten around to downloading or installing the Jailbreak. Is there some way to confirm if I have the jailbreak installed at startup or something?

I copied a SecureBootDebugPolicy.p7b (dated 02/13/2014 @ 3:19PM) file from there. From what I was reading, I take it that's a good thing? (click thumbnail for full pic)

SecureBootDebugPolicy in the certificate manager tool

Good job ASUS :good:
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jimmielin:
If you were able to retrieve a SecureBootDebugPolicy.p7b that is functional, it probably means that there was a Debug policy on your device at some point? (ref. Original Thread on ASUS). I've just looked into my Surface RT and there's a file with that name too, but it cannot be opened (it's simply an empty 0-byte file) and probably you're another lucky one who has a debug policy. (However it can't be explained why Get-SecureBootPolicy shows that you're using a production policy? Does it show the production policy GUID that TechNet says is normal, or something else? Policies don't disable secure boot, Confirm-SecureBootPolicy showing true is perfectly normal even in debug.)

Would it be possible to share this SecureBootDebugPolicy.p7b and then we'd able to see if there is someone else with a VivoTab RT that could test it? I assume it's locked to your device but it's always worth a try.

Could anyone else with experience working with Secure Boot look into this? While it's probably a lucky isolated case, it's nevertheless promising...
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Just to double check: does anybody else have a Vivo Tab RT with 8.1u1 they could check this against? It would be amazing / hilarious if the update disabled signature enforcement. The question would then be whether that was Microsoft's idea or Asus's...

Oh, and one other quick test: grab a built-in program (CMD.EXE or Notepad.EXE, for example) and make a copy of it to somewhere you can edit it (like the desktop). Open the file in a hex editor (if needed, copy it off the tablet first) and change something unimportant, like a few characters in a string (not a file path, more like "is not recognized as an internal or external command..." or some such thing) to some other value that has the same number of characters. Save the file and try running it on the tablet again. The idea is that this will be an EXE with an *invalid* signature (as opposed to just being unsigned) and that would be very surprising if it works... but this whole thing is surprising!
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] labsONE:
Tried it on a VivoTab RT LTE (AT&T) with u1 -- ran 7z ARM and it failed on signature verification.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] blweldon2:
I would never run another update on that device. Don't want to patch up the botched update.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
I wonder if there's some way to take a full image of your current installation (possibly using a backup utility?) that can be restored onto other peoples' tablets. Even better would be if the relevant bits could be extracted from your image and carried over to other tablets (such as Surface RTs, Surface 2s, Lumia 2520s, etc.) but that may be harder. Still, worth investigating more...
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Sjflowerhorn:
Was it new or used when you got it? And if it was used, is it possible the original owner JB'd it and it stuck through the update?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jordanmills:
Should be able to use dism.exe. Not sure if it will capture the online image, but you can definitely use it in recovery mode. Should be able to capture with new-windowsimage too. Going to try it out real quick and report back... I would choke puppies for this image.

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM ----------

Okay it you can't capture the online image. You'll need to have a USB drive with enough space to capture the whole thing. Make sure you either suspend bitlocker or make sure you have a copy of the recovery key handy (It's 48 decimal digits).

Boot to the recovery partition (it doesn't matter if it's on the local storage or a USB key - it can even be the same USB key you will copy the disk image to if you have enough free space).

Choose language, troubleshoot, advanced, command prompt (I think - point is, you want a command prompt).

Verify the drive letters are what you expect them to be (internal storage is c, usb disk is d, ramdisk is x).

run: dism /capture-image /ImageFile:d:\winrt81u1.wim /CaptureDir:c:\ /Name:WinRT81U1vivotab

Let it finish. It will take a while. Probably a long time since it's writing to USB 2.0 flash storage. Bet on an hour. You probably want to make sure it's plugged in to power (but you're not writing anything to the local storage, so you won't break anything if it goes dead).

Upload that wim file to skydrive and share it with me! :)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Toxickill:
That is impossible, the 8.0 jailbreak was performed in memory and it not written to the disk.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Sjflowerhorn:
Gotcha, I haven't JB'd mine yet, so I have no idea how it works. Apparently I'm Windows ShmeShmarted and can't make a bootable flash drive that contains the rollback. And coming from android devices where everything sticks except for some very select mods/devices I just figured it might be possible.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] southbird:
Believe me, that's what all RT owners would WANT to have. Although there's many reasons to jailbreak a device, I personally prefer feeling like I've gained full control of hardware I own. The in-memory jailbreak was good, but it didn't have that satisfying feeling of permanence you often get with an Android rooting / OS replacement.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] syn3h:
Until the carrier gets to your device and locks the bootloader (AT&T)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
I actually preferred the in-memory jailbreak in many ways. It meant we couldn't modify system files or run unsigned code for a couple minutes after boot, but it also meant we could trivially easily "un-jailbreak" and we could install updates with no fear of them destroying anything. Even the huge 8.1 update, which broke the jailbreak *process*, could be started on a device which was already jailbroken without causing any harm (unlike, say, many iOS jailbreaks).
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Lumen_Melano:
I agree. I liked that the 8.0 jailbreak wasn't permanent but also exceedingly simple to install at boot. It meant that sending my Surface RT back to my Microsoft under warranty had no problems at all.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] syn3h:
The in-memory Jailbreak is great when you hard brick your Surface and take it to the Microsoft Store. They just gave me a new one with no problems at all.
