so what may i do now?? i will not get it back my phone normal??:( and getting g7 firmware will it do flash without any error ?[/QUOTE]

As i said, u can't downgrade to NG4 and please dont try a chance otherwise you may stand on a brick device. Just to unroot your fone, u can use the superSU app on ur fone, in the setting u will get full unroot option.

Connect ur fone to ur pc and open up kies. See what is says. If nothing, than select recovery from tool menu and follow the instruction. most probably it will not help as kies dont have G7 update now.

To have safe unroot means to flash the same firmware version u were using, as u were in G7 u have to flashed the same. U tried with G4, that's why ur fone encountered with this problem. Dont worry just wait for sammobile, u'll be done.

You don't need KNOX remover. Just flash the supersu and run it. It detects knox and asks for removal. Once removed, restart in recovery mode and re flash supersu. Done.

P.S I am on indian firmware
[Galaxy Grand 2 Original Android Development] k2wl:

then flash cwm or philz

pull your battery

reinsert battery

boot into recovery

root your device with cf auto root method.

install recovery from phone with flashify.

(this is little dangerous )

are flashing correct version of cwm or philz i.e 4.3 jb version of these recoveries.????

###################

i done this little differently

i downloaded the official tar.md5 (4.4.2 kitkat nh6 version)

unpack it

replace stock recovery.img with philz kitkat version

repack it as tar.md5

flash via odin

now i have kitkat with philz recovery

#######################

if you have jb 4.3 version of tar.md5 rom then you can do the same with 4.3 jb version of philz or cwm

####################
[Galaxy Grand 2 Original Android Development] xubairsarwar:
So you mean I have to dowload the official stock 4.3 for my device and replace the stock recovery with philz touch(compatible one) and after repacking it flash it via odin...Here I would like to ask one question as I am already on 4.3 version can flashing the same firmware again via odin brick my phone or not...or create any other problem...js asking to be sure...as it is my first time using a samsung device...
[Galaxy Grand 2 Original Android Development] kuldude:
No it will not brick your phone
[Galaxy Grand 2 Original Android Development] xubairsarwar:
One more thing do u hv working cwm for 4.3 firmware...if yes please the upload else direct me to the post from which I can download it...actually one of my frnz told me the recovery didnt work as it was incompatible

I'm on 4.4.3 LiquidSmooth, and the voice chat during a Hangouts video chat just doesn't work.

Also, if I tried changing the volume during the hangouts chat, it stays at 0%, depsite the volumes in the Settings being raised. Any ideas?

Heey people,

I've got a dutch t-mobile mda pro, i have unlocked it and used the latets t-mobile dutch rom on it.

Now is my question: I feel it is time to once again update and t-mobile probably won't update the pro any more because they pulled it out of the stores in the Netherlands.

So my question is which rom should I use (and a way for my t-mobile configuration for gprs umts mms and so on to be put back)

And what sort of programs do you guys propose (tt6 gets on it so please remeber that) and please when you name a program give a description of it.

And what other kind of update do you propose like registry hacks or something of the like

with greetz and anticipation,

This was released and am wondering if any one that was NOT able to get S-Off via Firewater has tried this and gotten a successful S-Off status on their phone. I want to try it but its $25 and am not feeling very adventurous right now.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] npalmy:
I did... Worked perfect. You have to be on a stock rom and kernel.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] fmedrano1977:
Worked well, it runs compatability test before you are asked to pay. You won't get to pay portion of it unless your rom/kernel is compatible.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Caldor79:
Firewater failed on my T Mobile m8, so I tried SunShine as soon as I saw it was released. SunShine worked perfectly. It's actually from the same devs that created Firewater. I suggest you give it a try. Get a rom as close to stock as possible and run it. If it won't work on your phone, it will tell you before you pay a penny. It's also crazy easy to use. In my opinion, it's worth every bit of the $25.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Z51:
says its $25 bucks. not bad. gonna try it later today
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] pingels:
Originally I received the ***whelp this sucks**** message. I tried Sunshine and within 10 minutes (reading everything and watching the how-to video) I was S-off! Thanks a million! $25 well worth it! I hope this sets a model for the Android community!

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] jcase:
Android is a commercial product, phones are a commercial product, and many (most of the more complex) apps are commercial products.

The reasons are explained on the website, but look at it this way. If you put 100s and 100s of hours installing copper/fiber into a building, would you expect to get paid for it? That is some hard work, I still have scars from that. This is hard work too.

The air that we all breath is not even Free ....
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Jhoopes517:
At first, I was kind of skeptical on paying for it as well, but then I started to think about it...

Jcase and Beaups worked on the Firewater release and made it free and I was able to take advantage of that and then deciced to S-on and update to the OTA and lost the ability to run it again. Sunshine was a way to grant me S-Offf again, plus it feels ore like a contribution towards their work on both releases.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] jcase:
I wish I had worked on firewater, but I only worked on WeakSauce (m8 root for verizon). Glad to be part of this project!

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Jhoopes517:

$25 is not a bad price its only bad if you dont like to support the ppl that are helping you so you could do more with your phone... i even buy the pro keys from rom developers even when i dont use the rom...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Daiskei:
I agree that a fee isn't bad, however, I feel the price is a bit high... $10 would be a bit more reasonable, especially for the people doing this to return devices for warranty. It sucks to have to pay the $20 insurance fee and then another $25 to unroot your device. I still support the devs though, I paid $25 to get my s-off on my device but now I have a new one and so if I need to do it again I have to pay another $25. C'est La Vie.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Paten:
Just to be clear, we still have to unlock the bootloader before Sunshine will work, right? And the only way to do that is still thru HTCDEV?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] jcase:
No, you can use the TowelRoot directions on theroot.ninja instead of unlocking
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] jcase:
The price is based on the cost to develop, and what we value our time. Linking the license to the device through a unique identifier is the only way to prevent sharing of licenses (not serial, not imei, but mathematically generated identifier unique to combination of hardware on the device, so no worries, we dont have your IMEI/IMSI/ESN etc).

The developers can't be expected to shoulder part of the loss when a user returns a device, and to be honest device returns should be quite rare. I've "returned" one device out of well over 200 I've purchased in the last two years, and that was not exactly a return (gave it to a Sony engineering team in person, after it broke oddly while hacking on it, to find out what the heck we did. They couldn't figure it out either, but gave us a similar one without our request.).

In many jurisdictions, use of Sunshine voids the warranty, the disclaimer even says as much. It also isn't designed for unrooting, nor warranty fraud (we purposely didn't include functions for sim unlock, s-on, removing the relock etc because of this).
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Paten:
Awesome. I couldn't understand why it wasn't working but after I uninstalled SuperSU that took care of it. Now I should be able to reinstall it.

Make sure you are using the current version of SunShine, and version 3 of towelroot.

uninstall supersu app, reboot phone.

wait 2 minutes+ after booting to try towelroot

follow towelroot directions on http://theroot.ninja

if that fails, gain root through htcdev
