[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
well then probably the flashable efs v2 modems from the link of [MENTION=4237852]tallman43[/MENTION] will help you.

by updating from 4.1.2 to 4.3 your efs was updated to v2 as well as your modem. Now you reverted back to 4.1.2 through odin, your efs stays on v2, but your modem has downgraded to a modem which is not compatible with efs v2.

so if you flash now again a modem which is compatible everything should be fine again. they can be flashed through a custom recovery.

but please read the efs stickies thread (and maybe also all the other stickies threads) and make an efs backup as there described.

Never mind off topic question

What if I install 4.0.4 stock BTU rom on my s3 gt-i9300. Will I be able to get my network back again by flashing one of these roms?

Thanks in anticipation
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
flashing 4.0.4 stock ics rom is not recommended has it does not have sudden death fix.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jean001luc:
Does anyone know how I can implement a custom ROM but have it urooted

I need an unrooted for work. I have tried rootcloak type applications but they don't do the trick. Plus, this is for work so, in order to comply with requirements I want to make sure phone is not rooted rather than just hiding root

Reason I want to use custom ROM is to get additional features such as dropdown menu on main page, remove unwanted app (malware) and have smallest footprint possible
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yash296:
wrong thread. post in q&a
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] karandpr:
Flash custom ROM.

Download Root explorer or any other root explorer app

Navigate to system.

delete

/system/app/Superuser.apk

/system/xbin/su

or

/system/bin/su

reboot the phone

That should do it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jean001luc:
Thank you - will try and see how it goes
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jean001luc:
No good. Deleted system/bin/su and xbin/su but could not find system/apps/superuser

Rebooted device and still rooted
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] karandpr:
what ROM are you using ?

it could be

/system/app/superuser.apk

/system/app/Superuser.apk

/system/app/SuperSU.apk

/system/app/eu.chainfire.supersu.apk

/system/app/com.koushikdutta.superuser.apk

/system/app/com.noshufou.android.su.apk

in anycase ,you will need to reflash ROM or reflash superuser.

Technically the "Superuser" app is a front end for /system/bin/su...So you are unrooted, Just you need to remove that app..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] maxxm:
First off I want to say that I tried searching for this issue and what I found didn't seem to be exactly what was happening to me, if anyone knows of a thread about this please send me there so we don't bog the forum down with preexisting information :).

T-Mo Samsung Galaxy S3 - (SGH-T999)

* Not Rooted

* No Custom ROM

I'll cut to the chase here. Phone started boot looping after restarting it this morning. Tried wiping the cache, didn't help. Tried pulling battery and waiting 5 min, didn't help. Removed the SIM card and pulled bat again, didn't help. Put SIM back in and removed SD card and pulled bat again, worked this time. I retried all the combinations again two more times each and got the same results so I am fairly confident the SD card or something on it is causing the issue. I tried a spare SD I had laying around and it gives me the same issue even after reformatting it. So now I'm wondering if something is wrong with the OS when it tries to mount/read the SD card. Anybody have this issue before or have any ideas? Any help is much appreciated!

P.S. I'm trying to avoid a factory reset if I can, but if I must, then I will do it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Cant say ive seen this one before. But if you want to avoid the factory reset, try reflashing your current firmware build with Odin. Maybe try a slightly newer one as well.

You could also try flashing a custom recovery. Then try just wiping cache and dalvik. If needed, then try a factory reset. With a custom recovery installed it will not wipe your internal sd.

If none of this helps, use recovery to try and get important data off, then reflash stock firmware and factory reset again. Doing so with stock recovery actually formats the partition and will wipe internal sdcard. But it is the only way to completely clean everything up for more troubleshooting.

Hi. I'm from Turkey and I want root my phone but I have questions about that. There is forums in Turkey like that but I think XDA members are more experienced on that topics.

1) How can I root my phone?

2) How con I unroot my phone?

3)How can I get warranty back before sending my phone to technic service?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theplasmastorm:
Using phone normally: OK!

Playing game on phone while plugged in: OK!

Playing game on phone on battery: Automagically turns itself off in a few minutes.

It's not even a super intense graphics Crysis knockoff. It's Adventure Time Card Wars.

I hypothesized that it is the battery, but after I put in a new fresh battery, it still exists. Maybe it's the rom/kernel I'm using.

I'm on PAC 4.3 with beta 10.43 dori kernel

Any advice?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
1) Reflash PAC 4.3 and stay on Stock kernel (the one that comes with the pac rom) and see if issue is there or not.2) If issue still persisits then Backup data And then do a full wipe and install the rom and see :)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:
How about updating to cm11 m8 with its stock kernel? I bet this is caused by your kernel...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zakoo2:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:
I think you should do a full wipe and a clean flash afterwards. Just make a back up from your apps + data und you are good to go.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zakoo2:
could you please recommend a good app/data backup tool? i already tried titanium and helium in the past, but neither could save every app and every appdata and settings.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:
I dont have any good experience with back up apps. Those didnt work like I wanted to. I always do a back up via adb. You just need to have root and back up everything with command lines. When you arent familiar with such things, then I recommand you to use WugFreshs Nexus Toolkit. It helps a lot.

If there are more questions please dont mind to ask. I dont want you to do a false step and lose all your data. :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zakoo2:
thank you, using wugfreshs toolkit might actually be the best mode of backup :) i will get back to you as soon as i get to try it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:

All,

Just want you to know I have had android phones for the past 4yrs and each and every one I have rooted, installed ROMS, tweeked etc...This is the only phone I feel I don't need to root. I did tweek it a bit by installing ART and disabling some bloatware apps from ATT, but so far, I have not gotten the itch to root yet.

I'm sure it will change, but so far this phone is a beast and I have no issues with it.

[G3 General] Semantics:
No you don't, you WANT root. There is a big difference.
[G3 General] kthung:
I think over the years manufacturers have slowly figured out how to make the stock experience less and less awful. I used to be a flash-aholic on my Droid Incredible but I can see how custom ROMs are becoming more of a personal preference than a necessity.
[G3 General] sn0warmy:
Yeah, it's all

semantics

, really. :silly:
[G3 General] Nutzzer:
Sorry, but I guess that is what I was trying to get at with my post. In the past, I would root to optimize the phone, increase performance etc...But with the current state of Android and even this skinned LG, I can live with stock and not have to go through crack flashing. Was terribly time consuming.
[G3 General] Osseon:
Plus the LG set up has a native bluetooth hotspot that doesn't seem to need the $10 a month change my provider normally charges. So No hotspot hack required.

I have an appradio 2 in my car. I NEED root for it to connect to my phone. So yes. I NEED root. Don't try talking for me.
[G3 General] sn0warmy:
Edit: NVM.
[G3 General] Semantics:
Again, you want root. You purchased an item under the assumption that you will always have root, and that may not be the case. You bought an item that doesn't support many devices it seems, perhaps you should have taken that into consideration before assuming every device you buy will have root. Its much easier to go to appradio and look at what is supported, and buying the appropriate device then insisting on needing root to use an item that currently isn't compatible with your phone.
[G3 General] JasonJoel:
Quit arguing semantics. It is really quite juvenile. Need/want - who cares.

Lord, the guy was talking about himself and somehow it became about someone else....he is experiencing his thought on HIS rooting experience. You want to go on about how much YOU NEED / WANT root open your own discussion thread and go at it...in YOUR thread.

And thanks OP for your input, thats the same kind of experience I am trying to go for where the stock rom can fullfil my phone desire without needing to root...and when I do will just be to entertain myself :P
[G3 General] Slash8915:
Actually, I bought the Appradio while I had the GS4, which has root. I got it knowing that I would need root, so I STILL have the GS4, and won't be buying the G3 until it has root. I'm not just going to jump to another phone without knowing for sure it has root.

So seriously... Get off your ****ing high horse.
[G3 General] Semantics:
You develop apps, but don't buy a developer phone? That might be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. He bought a niche product, and NEEDS root to play with it, its not for work, lol. Whatever. You need root, and you're a developer, so I'm sure you'll have it figured out in no time at all, Chief.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Not to sounds rude but that's not really how a forum works, you have obviously tried to search for what you need and how to to root but when links are down and someone suggests to try multiple places for links that is something you need to do

We all are busy and you need to understand that for someone who is trying to help it is a lot of effort to get to a PC, dig up the files you need, upload them and then link you. O don't mind going out of my way to help when I can, do it all the time here, but you really should do some legwork yourself.

Chances are it will be faster for you to just Google search those few terms I gave you and check the links, I'd be surprised if all four are broken. If you need to wait on me I'll be home in about 6 or seven hours and then if I have time expect another hour for upload and links.

I send that link in PM.

can I use them for downgrade my device?

which one?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Glad you were able to find working links!

More than likely use wwe version of a 1.34 ROM, if you check your cid you can tell for sure

Boot to fastboot and run

fastboot getvar all

But in truth I'm pretty sure the wwe addition should work for all desire z phones (but probably not for the T-Mobile g2) as you are e/piloting the phone first to allow for the downgrade.

thoughts? am i gonna brick my phone?

prompt replies appreciated :)
[HTC One Max] nathlynn22:
Always remember on a HTC one m7 if you tried flashing a hboot to down grade without being soff I think you ran the risk of bricking. Any more info on phone is it rooted boot loader unlocked. Are you using firewater. if you enter adb devices does the device show. Is it on a stock Rom. Have you tried temp root and firewater route. Etc
[HTC One Max] kdm212:
it is s-on

i can temproot with weaksause but cannot really get farther because im always getting device offline.
[HTC One Max] nathlynn22:
Before you try anything when you try adb devices it says offline... Best bet is make sure HTC sync is removed antivirus off etc. Maybe reboot your laptop/pc. Have you got the say most recent mini-sdk for adb and fastboot usb debugging on etc

ya i have the most recent sdk and fastboot debugging on. antivirus is off and sync is not on the comp. i wonder if i could get my hands on a backup from someone else with a older hboot? would that help?
