well I tripped knox with superuser and busybox so I went past all that do I just put the recovery tar file in the PDA box of ODIN?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Frank Westlake:
After Towel Root download TWRP and Term.apk then install Term.apk and use 'dd' to write the recovery image to the recovery partition.

dd if="recovery.img"of="/dev/block/mmcblk0p15"

re: odin flash

Put the cf-autoroot TAR file into Odin's pda slot.

After you flashed the cf-autoroot let the phone

reboot and then go into download mode again

and odin flash the twrp recovery TAR file in odin's

PDA slot.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Frank Westlake:
The device is already rooted so Chainfire's Auto Root is not necessary. If the device does not yet have a root manager (SuperSU, SuperUser) then one should be installed, but that can be done either before or after writing the recovery partition.

Make sure you have the correct TWRP for your Android version and device.

Sent from my bad ass Kryon infused TWEAKED..Note 3
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Frank Westlake:
True, and the solution is to flash one of the acceptable recoveries for your Android version and device; stock, TWRP, Philz.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gtrplr71:
I cant get a single recovery to flash into my phone not TWRP ot CWM. I am no youngling with flashing but I am stumped. Any help would be appriciated. I am on 4.4.2 build does it matter?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gtrplr71:
figured it out I had to flash it twice. thanks for the thoughts
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Frank Westlake:
Does stock recovery succeed and does it clear the SEAndroid warning? If yes, yes then I can only suggest that you are trying to flash an incompatible custom recovery. I don't use Windows so I can't check your use of Odin. Try writing the partition with 'dd' as I described earlier.

Frank
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gtrplr71:
I flashed one of Phil's recovery in ODIN 3.09 and it is now working great
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Frank Westlake:
That also suggests that you somehow got the wrong TWRP. If your device is the SM-N900T and it is running Android 4.4.anything then this is what you need:

https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/hltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar

If Odin wants a zip instead of a tar then this instead:

https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/hltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-hltetmo-4.4.zip

Those are in the official TWRP repository.

Now that you got it working you probably want to leave it as it is, but while you have that procedure fresh in your mind is probably the best time to try to get the right TWRP working.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReapersDeath:
Sorry if this has been brought up before, but why is it that CyanogenMod 11 is countless times snappier than TouchWiz ROMs, and much faster, yet has such a lower score on benchmarks?

On TouchWiz with quadrant standard , I get like 5400-6200, yet on CyanogenMod 11 I get 4200. On antutu I get a sad 8000-1000 yet on TouchWiz I get 14000-16000. TouchWiz is getting higher scores yet is very sluggish in comparison.

Could it be launcher related or kernel related? I do notice on CyanogenMod that larger tasks take longer than on TouchWiz.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flasher4401:
Hi!

I have a big problem. I changed my build.prop with ES FE (rooted with CF-Auto-Root):

from "ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung" to "ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-tmobile-de"

I rebooted and my phone stucks at the Samsung logo. I think ES set permissions wrong.

The Problem is:

I have Reactivation lock enabled & i'm on stock recovery.

So i'm not able to flash the rom again or a custom recovery because of the reactivation lock.

Also I can't fix permissions via stock recovery.

I think the only way out is to wipe my device. (This should restore the original build.prop?!)

But then i loose my data. Is there a way to make a backup of my personal data in this situation or to access the system folder?

EDIT 1: USB-Debugging is turned on, i'll install adb on my computer and try if i'm able to talk to my phone...

EDIT 2: It's not possible to access the system via adb. The only way i can establish a connection via adb is with the "adb sideload" menu of the stock recovery. If i boot until the samsung logo my computer recognizes the phone as an mtp device (unfortunately it doesnt show up in explorer) and the device manager says that there is no adb interface connected.

EDIT 3: I tried to install philz/twrp and cwm s5 port on my phone via stock recovery. It didn't work: "Footer is wrong" + "File verification failed". Is there any way to save my data? (Pictures?)

-flasher
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
I don't understand why you didn't make a backup before making inherently risky changes to your configuration. You may not be able to recover personal files without heroic measures. But I will list some things that you could attempt.

Most of the things that you could normally try e.g. installing a custom recovery will be blocked by your reactivation lock. Try pushing a stock properties file to your phone via ADB sideload. You also want to see what can be done from fastboot. If you can get even limited ADB or fastboot access, you can do a lot. The following commands would be emminently useful:

adb reboot recovery
adb shell
adb remount
adb push
adb pull
fastboot flash

Also search XDA for reactivation lock threads.. some people were claiming that they have found bugs /exploits that may aid you in recovering. You might also be able to dump the data partition from a JTAG interface - but that would be a highly technical, expert level procedure where a misstep could brick your phone.

And as a practical last resort, if nothing else works, try installing a firmware update instead of a full OEM image. That may replace enough system files to fix the boot process and might not delete your user files in the data partition.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flasher4401:
Thanks for your reply.

My device doesn't have a fastboot mode. Also i'm not able to use any other adbs commands than sideload (stock recovery).

I managed to install a full image without losing any data. The reactivation lock allows to flash official roms. (I didn't think about that ealier..)

True but irrevelant. Some of the fastboot commands work on Samsung devices nonetheless and may be of value in desperate circumstances. fastboot reboot certainly works fine. And fastboot reboot-bootloader and fastboot flash complete with errors on the S3 and possibly on the S5 as well.

Glad to hear. Flashing firmware updates and images doesn't always wipe the /data partition. So count yourself lucky this time.

OP was asking if fastboot was available, so i replied to that so that and that makes it relevant. I know general adb commands work but fastboot/bootloader mode is just not available for Sammy devices :)

I'd suggest do research in here (XDA) and know what is the latest..I'm assuming that you are trying to flash an OTA..but if you have a file someone has "ported" or something of that nature..go back to where you downloaded the file and research..

Even if you have an OTA zip..I'd suggest maybe know the file more, maybe it should be unzipped and run an XML file..I honestly am not familiar with the file you are attempting to use..

Maybe post a link to where you found the file and myself and others can go look at what file and its purpose..then maybe we can assist you more..Sorry I can't help you more at this time..

[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Yep, [MENTION=4992498]rocketsaucev2[/MENTION] is right. You appear to be attempting to flash the update.zip from custom recovery. It is well documented that you must have STOCK recovery in order to flash an official update.zip
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
It's already STOCK.

Isn't the 4.4.2 you're talking about ?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
No, it isn't. The screenshots you uploaded CLEARLY show custom recovery. You need to flash stock recovery back before you can take any updates.

If you don't know the difference between stock and custom recovery, you aren't ready to update. You need to Read, Read, Read....

This would be a good start: http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-OTA.html (Thanks [MENTION=1165307]KidJoe[/MENTION] for the well-written documentation)
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
Hi friend..

Yes I did everything.

Here me explaining everything: http://xdaforums.com/android/help/o...ns-problem-t2810890/post54034992#post54034992
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
I'm trying really hard to explain it to you but you just aren't getting it....

This is what you wrote in the post you linked:

1- Return to STOCK(Mine is 4.4.2) But I did stock it to 4.4.2. OK!

2- Install the TWRP to install the SuperSU. OK, Everything's fine.

3- After it, my dev is already rooted.

OK, look at

step number 2: YOU INSTALLED TWRP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When you flashed TWRP, you REPLACED stock recovery with custom recovery (TWRP).

As I've been trying to make you understand, OTAs will -----ONLY----- install if you have STOCK RECOVERY.

You will need to flash stock recovery BACK (replacing TWRP), THEN you can accept the update!!!!

Afterwards, you can flash TWRP back.

This is well documented everywhere.....you will have to do this EVERYTIME a new OTA comes out.

You can NOT accept an OTA if you have TWRP installed.

Do you understand now?
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
But I did STOCK and no updates came up.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
I'm convinced that you aren't even reading what I'm writing...... :(

Let me make this easy for you:

Do this:

1. Return to Stock 4.4.2

2. Accept the OTA (DO NOT FLASH TWRP)

3. After you accept the OTA, and you are running 4.4.3, NOW you can install TWRP

YOU CANNOT ACCEPT THE OTA IF TWRP IS INSTALLED!!!!!

I've told you this SO many times now.....

TWRP is your problem. You must NOT install TWRP and root (supersu) until AFTER you accept the OTA.

It has ALWAYS been like this. This is nothing new.

Please read my posts carefully. If you follow those instructions, it WILL work.........
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
When I go back to STOCK doesn't the TWRP break ? Because whenever I go back to stock and try to click on "Recovery" Dev stops working. That's what I did man..

1- Back to STOCK perfectly.

2- No Updates comes up. What's this OTA update you're talking about ? where does it pops up ? I'M SURE I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY right after I stock it... I even checked it in the System Updates...
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
YES, you do NOT want TWRP (or you can't accept the update).

OTA = "Over the air update" = update to 4.4.3

What method are you using to return to stock? Tell me you aren't just doing a "factory reset". How exactly are you "returning to stock"?

If you install TWRP = updates DISABLED.
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
I tried many.. RSDLite, Manual flashing and that one that is recommended for people with problems with "boot loop" and the first I tried two days ago that erased all my data, cache, everything..

The thing is, is that every method seems to work fine but I just don't receive the update '-'

Actually I receive that upgrade that is something that pops up for 3 seconds saying "Upgrading android, installing apps." Then my Dev initializes normal but still dealing with the 4.4.2...
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Please just try.

1. Return to Stock (just use RSD Lite) YES, this will erase EVERYTHING.

2. Go to settings > About Device > System Update

3. Update to 4.4.3 will install.

4. After 4.4.3 successfully installs, NOW you can flash TWRP (ONLY after you are on 4.4.3)

Please just try it.....

---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ----------

That is because you flashed TWRP, as I've been trying to make you understand.....

Is Spanish your native language?

If so, perhaps this page will explain it better than I can:

[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
It's Portuguese but I do upgrade it in English.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
OK, so you have returned to stock 100%, correct? You did NOT flash TWRP, right?

If so, then download this file, and place it on your SD Card: https://mega.co.nz/#!mtI0EbYA!YQzHC-pryPQPTeSjzVZ-1rIY_8nQ7QiAZbw9pxTVC8w

Now, boot into bootloader and Select "recovery"

You will probably see a BLANK SCREEN - this is normal!!!!!!!

Press VOLUME UP + POWER multiple times until you see a broken android

Keep pressing until you see some options appear.

Choose the option "Apply Update from SD Card"

Find the file you put on the SD card, and press power to select it.

Wait for it to install, then select "REBOOT SYSTEM NOW"

You will be on 4.4.3!!!!!!!!!

It looks like maybe your carrier removed the official 4.4.3 OTA for some reason.... This would explain why it isn't coming up when you go to system updates.

You are using a Brazil XT1058, correct?
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
It's XT1058, Yes.

Yes, I did..

No updates the same image "Your device's up do date... OK."

Still no updates
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
EXACTLY!!!!! THAT is STOCK RECOVERY!!!!

That is what you MUST HAVE to flash the OTA!!!

I've been trying to get you to understand that this whole time!

Now, on THAT screen, press VOLUME UP + POWER

Keep pressing until a menu pops up!!!!
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
It says instalation aborted was aborted..
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
You need to be on the screen IN YOUR PICTURE. That screen IS the "stock recovery".

When you see the "Broken Android" in the picture, you HOLD DOWN the POWER button, and press VOLUME UP.

Then a menu appears!!!!

---------- Post added at 09:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 PM ----------

That means that the update you are trying to flash does not match the software on the phone.

Is your phone the Brazil XT1058? Or is it the AT&T XT1058?

Which version did you flash when you "Returned to Stock"?
[Moto X Q&A] Liooh:
firmware: 161.44.26.ghost_row.Oi.en.BR

"Oi" is an operator system here in Brazil.

the other one: 212.44.22.ghost._row.BRAZIL.en.. (the one the same from the spanish website you sent me from XT1058)
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
That explains it. As far as I know, the 4.4.3 update has ONLY been released for the Brazil RETAIL version, and the T-Mobile USA RETAIL version.

Oi never put out an update, which is why you aren't getting anything from Settings > about phone > system update

If you want to update to 4.4.3, you will need to flash the entire stock 4.4.2 brazil retail version. This one: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=0&file=834

Doing this will remove the "Oi" carrier branding, and it should ALSO all you to update simply by going to Settings > about phone > system update, and you shouldn't have to boot into recovery to manually apply the update.

Let us know if you are successful.

Hi everyone...

I was at the gas station last night, and thought I'd try using NFC/Google Wallet to try paying for something for the first time.

I went in to turn on NFC, and found that the option is completely grayed out. (The button is set to "on", but its grayed out, and cannot be turned off)

Android Beam is disabled/grayed out.

S Beam is enabled, but I can't seem to change it.

Tap and Pay is disabled, and says, "NFC is turned off".

Something is clearly FUBAR'd here.

I've tried rebooting a couple times.

I've tried pulling the battery (yes, its the original OEM battery).

I tried re-installing the stock ROM, and it didn't fix anything.
