[General Questions and Answers] DuhCiphered:
Hello all, I'm a noob to android and cell phones in general but not to computers. Been in to computers for about 15 years so fairly tech savvy there and have some experience with linux.Don't laugh but despite having been in to electronics and computers for 15 years I have never owned a cell phone until now. I was given a ZTE Midnight and have tried quite a number of methods to root it with no success. I have tried poot, superoneclick, oneclickroot, SRSroot and now Cydia Impactor. Cydia Impactor did not work with it's default method but I tried a method with it found on here listed below. I followed those steps and was able to acquire a root shell via telnet on windows 7 ultimate. But that is where I began running in to issues. First I was having trouble remounting as RW but managed to get that worked out but adb would still not push su to system /xbin. So I copied su to my sdcard and navigated to the sdcard via telnet and did cp su /system/xbin and that worked. I set permissions with chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su & chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su and did rm /data/local.prop and then rebooted the phone and installed SuperSu. Started SuperSu and got 'su needs to be updated '. It would not update so I tried uninstalling SuperSu and installing Superuser. Started Superuser and got no errors and all seemed well until I tried installing an app that requires root. I installed busybox and got the 'there was a problem opening a shell with root access...' I got no notification from superuser to grant permissions to busybox and could not set them manually. I did some reading and decided I had the wrong su installed and needed the 22kb which I found on here coupled with SuperSu. So I went back in via telnet and removed su and followed the same procedure I had before with cydia impactor to gain a root shell via telnet but can not replicate it. So that is where I am at, stuck. This seems like my best chance of getting this phone rooted if I could manage to replicate what I had did to begin with. Any ideas? I can telnet in on port 2222 with user access but not on port 22 with root access. I'm not a linux pro or anything but I think maybe before I removed su I needed to remove it's permissions that I had set previously. I thought a factory reset would remove any of that but the problem persists after a reset. Well if I left out any important details let me know. Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Duh

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sbsnwnm1:
Hi,

I am hoping someone might be able to help or at least point me in the right direction. I have 50 note 3 devices that I need to delete easylauncher.apk off or rename it.

So far the only way I have found to do this is to root the device and then rename the file. The problem I am having is that I need to connect these devices to an MDM solution which are reporting them as rooted.

I have used towelroot and cf auto root to rename the file and then unrooted using the setting in SuperSU. This hasn't worked and is still reporting as rooted.

Using Kingo Root seems to work and the MDM solution isn't saying it is rooted after unroot. I don't really want to use Kingo Root as it installs Clockwork Recovery in Chinese rather than English.

Could someone tell more why Kingo Root works and if there is a way to manual do the same thing?

Is there a way to setup one device and then produce an image of this device to use on all the others?

Can I modify the standard Samsung rom so I can just take out the easylauncher.apk file?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
You can change as desire on 1 device (by using Kingo) and reproduce the image to another devices as you have said.

Regarding Chinese CWM Recovery, you can manually flash another recovery on the first device.

On remaining devices no need to do that, because you need to flash the system image only.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sbsnwnm1:
Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

Just so I am clear of the steps I need to take:

1. Root device using Kingo

2. Flash English CWM

3. Unroot device

4. Do full backup in CWM

Now here is where I am getting stuck.

Do I now on a new phone just flash CWM and then restore from the backup I took? Or do I do an advanced restore and just use System restore?

I did try this after restoring the original phone to the Offical ROM and I was getting a MD5 mismatch?

What I am after is the quickest way to get 50 devices built with the EasyLauncher.apk file deleted or renamed.

Thanks again for your help.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kerryh420:
Hi Everyone,

After getting my Dev Ed S4 stuck on a locked bootloader and 5 months of nagging and harassing Samsung for the factory image files, and aboot partition- A task that reached the highest levels of brass (yes, the office of the president, though I'm sure it was the secretary or something)- They wouldn't give them too me. They have, however, finally agreed to flash it back to DE stock.

I am posting this as both a Q&A for myself as well as well as suggestions/comments/advice/etc... regarding this rare opportunity. Once I get it back if anyone would like to have a crack at the unmodified, untouched files please let me know- I'm not sure what it is you guys actually do to it but from what I've read it sounds like one ***** of a phone to break open, I'm not giving it away just letting people who know these things have an opportunity at it's software. I am not a dev nor tester. I consider myself just above novice. I like to mess around with the kick ass ROM's all you guys provide. For what it's worth, I'd like to give back a little in this small meaningless way.

Any suggestion to which DE build I should ask for, mkd vs nc5? it came stock with mdk, (i think)

So come one come all, as stated above: all comments welcome. Just please take it easy on me, I'm no kung fu badass but I'm learning.

I set up the 1.13 version of the ROM to my q110. It worked well, but thereafter i got problem with the screen and subsequently turned to the service centre. They said because of it was T-mobile i should set up back previous version of the ROM, which was original version 1.12.00. Otherwise i will have no warranty-repair of my PDA and will have to pay 200$. Main thing is that i didn't make any backup of my previous ROM... And now i can't find any in Internet. Being more exact i found one, but it is on the ftp-server, and i don't have any possibility to connect to the server and download it....

I would ask You all to help me solve this problem. Probably some link to a HTTP-server? Please.....!!!

My Huawei P6 Rear Camera does not focus at all.

When I touch the screen nothing happens, the image just looks blurry.

It happened on the standard stock O.s, I have installed a 4.4.2 o.s and the problem is the same.

Does anyone perhaps have a fix or knows why this happens?

I have seen the similar issue on a friends Sony Xperia Z.

The most constructive thing Iv'e read is that the lense is perhaps scratched but this is not so or so I can see.

Please, if someone knows how or why could they let me know?

Especially if you have a soloution.

When you took the battery out, did you try leaving it out for an hour? Sometimes that does the trick. Then go straight to download mode when you try it again.

1. When your phone does absolutely nothing, then its time to worry. I think you'll be OK.

2. Even with asterisks, a swear word is a swear word on XDA. You don't want your posts removed before you're able to get help.

3. Try rode warrior's suggestion. If that doesn't work, try flashing latest Philz recovery. Unchecked your reboot option in ODIN. Pull the battery after the flash passes. Then insert the battery and try booting into recovery...

It would go straight to recovery mode.

I flashed the recovery with TWRP via the ODIN pro app and wiped the Dalvik Cache. when I rebooted, it wouldn't go past the samsung gs3 splash screen and every time I try to reboot it, it goes straight to recovery. My original plan was to put it in download mode and reset the boot flag but since I can't seem to put it into download mode, I can't use ADB or even ODIN for that matter so I've concluded that I'm pretty much screwed unless you guys have any other suggestions. I took out the battery for a while and even ran it until it died. It still is trying to go into recovery (but keep in mind that it can't because ODIN messed something up... or I did)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] g_money:
You used mobile ODIN?

I'm a bit confused cause you say it hangs on the Samsung screen, but you also say it goes straight to recovery? So you see recovery start to come up, then it hangs?

I would plug it into a pc just to see if it's recognized. If you had USB debugging turned on you might be able to use adb to reboot into download(?)

Is your phone charged?

A similar problem that I had was that it'd enter recovery mode, but I had to flash a certain version of TWRP via Odin in order to get into recovery mode. If I didn't, "recovering booting" would pop up for 3 or 4 seconds (rather than quickly, as it would do normally) and the screen would go black. Assuming you can get into download mode, try downloading and flashing the file that I have linked below.

When you boot into the bootloader on the device, it just goes into fastboot mode where it shows a cyanogenmod guy with the words fastboot under it.

As for unlocking the bootloader, after running fastboot oem unlock the device will reboot and wipe your data partition, but it seems to flip a flag in the bootloader so your device will show as tampered with the right fastboot command.
