easy S-0ff for M7 HTC One

Tonight (Aug6) the newest Sunshine was released.

The new version doesn't need Weaksauce or Firewater to work.

It has it's own temp-root.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ayanami00:
version 2.0 does work, have HTC One m7 running 4.4.2 sense 6. ran Sunshine on device it rebooted twice to complete. Then flashed TWRP recovery v 2.7.1.1. Then entered TWRP recovery it automatically prompted me to install supersu for root. Very easy and IMO was worth $25. Now I can finally try out a custom rom.:victory:

AND THUS THE FOUL AND EVIL BEAST KNOWN AS "VERIZON" WAS SLAIN. AND ALL REJOICED.

(Thank "Bob" my phone is truly MINE now.)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] weesty:
Are you charged before or after the rooting process? In other words, if this doesn't work, are you still charged $25?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
if the phone can be s-off it will go to the paypal screen. if it cant then it wont. you will not get charged if your phone doesnt gain s-off.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] d0m_:
i feel like i should know this, but i think it left my brain. i ran sunshine, have s-off and am unlocked (i checked just to make sure). however now i still do not have root access. what am i missing?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] michaelbsheldon:
You're very close now

Flash TWRP recovery v.2.7.1.1.

Then enter TWRP recovery.

It will automatically prompt to install SuperSU for root.

You can use this stock software rooted now, or better yet,

use TWRP to flash one of the custom roms available here on xda.

Try both BoneStock and NuSense. You'll find subtle differences and

after trying (and backing up before trying another) you can settle on which

is best for you or try some the other roms here. GO DEVELOPERS!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] d0m_:
i was hoping i could flash cwm via the flashify app, but i need to be rooted to do so. i was wondering if there was an update.zip that i can flash through the default recovery.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] michaelbsheldon:
..

Easiest thing might be to flash TWRP recovery, root it, then use Flashify to get CWM.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip

Super su. Flash any recovery. I keep a copy on my phone at all times. Just in case.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GaresTaylan:
Im extremely confused.

So I ran sunshine and it said I already have S-Off? Then it rebooted. So the next thing I did was download and install SuperSU. I get the generic "There is no SU library installed" error.

Am I stuck or missing something? This has easily been the most cumbersome device Ive ever tried to root.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo_Ge:
I would have posted directly to the PurpleDrake thread in development but the forum wont let me.. (New User)

Since rooting my G3 (D855 with 10e) the battery is draining really fast, even on standby.

When in use you can actually see the % battery going down.

All I have installed is Titanium, and Droid Mate App Ops.

The only things I have changed are a few permissions for Facebook, and a couple of games.

I've looked at running apps and the battery usage, and I can't see anything strange.

Any ideas, or should I un-root?

Cheers

Most likely it's not your root causing the issue.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo_Ge:
It was fine before rooting.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
that will simply be a coincidence, there is nothing root itself can do that would cause battery drain.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daleski75:
The chances are it's some application or something you changed which is causing the battery drain like lennyuk said root won't cause battery drain at all.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo_Ge:
I only installed Titanium and App Ops after root, and neither run in the background.

The only other change is I now have the quick circle case, which I fitted a couple of hours after rooting, but I can't see how that would have any affect.

Could the changing of permissions for Facebook etc with app ops. cause problems with battery life?

Maybe continuous polling for a response on a permission I blocked (like send sms). I will revert all the permission changes and see what happens.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daleski75:
Revert it on Facebook first as that's probably the biggest culprit I reckon.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drock212:
Download wake lock detector and find out what's not letting your device go into deep sleep. Also download something that will allow you to monitor your cpu. If your cpu is running at high frequencies for long periods of time then there's an app somewhere that is causing this issue. Like others have said root can not cause battery drain. Root is not an app that runs in the background giving you admin privileges. It runs ones and that's it. Also the changing of the resolution isn't advised. I have my resolution set at its default and get about 5 hours screen on time with 15+ hours off the charger
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aparty:
High battery drain.

The same here!

After root my LG G3 D855 with purpledrake I note high battery drain.

I simply root my device, install TWRP recovery and made device complete backup.

I installed "supersu", "flashify" (to install recovery), "quick boot", "nexapp SDFix" (to fix KitKat SD write issue).

I gave root permission (by SuperSU) to ES File Explorer, Flasjhify, QuickBoot, SDFix.

No other change.......

Why battery drain so fast, now?

Thanks.

PS I see battery drain graph with "GSam Battery Monitor" (installed since I buyed my G3).

Edit 2. I install "wakelock detector" and I found "SuperSU" using screen for 8h 43m... The second was Torque with 12m 21s.

Why SuperSU use so more resources?

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zee24:
Hey guys, this question is specific to the oneplus one or just simply any phone without an sd card. I owned a galaxy s4 in the past and the sd card was very useful because i would copy the rom i wanted to flash on the sd card and then using a custom recovery before flashing the rom i would WIPE THE WHOLE DEVICE (not including the ext sd card) then i would 100% clean install roms... but how would i do that with the oneplus? If i wipe the whole phone my zip file will also be gone so is there a way around this? When i flash roms i like to clean the whole device and not just wipe dalvic and cache.... Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
Big problem with my I777 running stock Jellybean...

I deleted the wallpaper file from data\system\users\0 and now my phone will not boot. It powers on and gets to the lock screen, but won't allow me to slide to unlock. The phone isn't entirely unresponsive as the clock still updates every minute. But it won't do anything else.

I have my old wallpaper file handy on the computer, so I can surely copy it back to the phone. Question is: how?? I have USB debugging enabled so ADB is possible, but I have absolutely no idea how to use it. If I boot to system recovery the only option I get for ADB is sideload. I can execute ADB on my computer, it finds the device. But when I try to use the "push" command, ADB responds with "error: closed." I tried to use the "sideload" command (with a dummy file) just to see if ANY ADB command would work. "Sideload" works (the phone reports an error about the file being invalid), so I know the connection is fine.

Help appreciated, thanks. I'm stuck with a ****ty iPhone until this situation is resolved. :eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
You're still on the stock kernel/recovery, so I'm not sure that you have any easy options. It is also relevant to know just how much information you want to recover.

File replacement:

Using desktop ODIN to flash a syiah kernel, then reboot to recovery:

You might then be able to adb-push the necessary item to /system, but this is a hack-approach to a problem better suited by a proper flash. <-- will retain all existing data & customization. Maybe worth a try, but I don't recommend it

Dirty-flash:

Using desktop ODIN to flash a syiah kernel, then reboot to recovery:

You will be able to flash a (custom) samsung-based firmware, which WILL overwrite /system, but will NOT overwrite your /data partition, likely allowing you to boot and properly back-up the stuff you want to keep, or even create a nandroid of the existing setup. <-- Will retain all existing data, will lose /system customisations. I have used this method.

Start-fresh:

Use desktop-Odin to flash the official firmware may be your only other option, which will retain everything in internal memory (photos, downloads, music, nandroid backups), but not messages, or any app data.

-Cyril
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
Well I do have CWM installed, but am curiously (and annoyingly) unable to boot to it now, for whatever reason. It boots to stock recovery instead, every time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
I think it's worth a try. I really would prefer to get my phone back working as it was, quickest way possible, because I've done a lot of heavy customization that would take many many hours to have to do over if I flash the official firmware again.

Could you please point me in the right direction of the syiah kernel, and proper instructions as to how to flash it? Would be much appreciated.

If it doesn't work out so hot, I'll try one of the other methods you mentioned. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
I would be glad to provide more detailed information, but I prefer to do so from a desktop computer, and I won't be near one for several days, so this may be a slow process unless one of our peers steps in to help.

In the meantime, you should gather:

-Odin 1.85 or 3.07

-A Siyah s2-v5.x or s2-v6.x .tar.md5 kernel (for the i777 or i9100)

The latter you can find at http://www.gokhanmoral.com

I will outline the process in a later post, explaining the purpose of each step.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
Sure, I'm OK waiting a few days. I appreciate the help, I haven't done any flashing in quite some time and don't want to make a mistake, especially with all the important data that's at stake.

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
File Replacement Method

1) Use desktop Odin to flash Siyah kernel

-Installs a kernel that will allow you to perform a nandroid backup, and MAY allow you to adb push the missing file to the device.

-This WILL change the initial boot screen (can be corrected later, but does not affect the function of the firmware), and will notch the flash counter (simply doesn't matter).

2) Boot to recovery

3) Create nandroid backup

-If things go sideways, you have a snapshot of where you are. If you have to start from scratch, there are apps that can restore Apps, settings, and more, from a backup.

4) Adb push missing file to /data/path_file_belongs

5) Shell chmod XXX the missing file

-to correct file permissions; that 0.xml file has -rw------ on my device, which translates to 600 (I think)

6) Flash appropriate ajk kernel

-for stock jb, use "NoSwap" http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2110542

-custom kernel that will boot stock rooted android.

7) Attempt Reboot into android

-If successful, reboot to recovery and perform another backup.

-If not successful, then we use a different method.

This is the trickier method of the three, but will retain all customization if it works. I have not tried it, and we're assuming that the missing file is actually the problem.

Please be sure that you are comfortable with all of the steps before attempting any of them. I will be able to provide step by step instructions, but not for several days.

Happy flashing,

-Cyril
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
Well, that was fun. Followed the instructions to a "t" and even learned some things. But, sadly, did not achieve the results I'd hoped for. :(

I was indeed able to push the wallpaper file over to data\system\users\0 and CHMOD it. But after flashing AJK "NoSwap" the phone shows the "Android is upgrading..." message, with "Starting apps." trying to process. But it doesn't. The little circle swirls a bit, then the screen goes black. The "Starting apps." message appears again, then the screen goes black again. And then it repeats this cycle forever. I eventually got irritated and yanked the battery.

So... *sigh*... what's my next best option?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
The Nandroid backup completed successfully? If so, that's great, any APP customization is likely captured in the backup. How well they will restore is a different concern, but we need to get the device booted completely into android first.

Before moving onto the next step, lets reboot to recovery, clear cache and dalvik, and fix permissions. It's a bit of a shot in the dark, but I prefer to exhaust the possibility before abandoning this approach.

[MENTION=5962041]Mr. Barker[/MENTION], You say that you've done a lot of heavy customization. What is the nature of the customization? app related? build.prop tweaks? I'm trying to determine how much might be lost by each of the next recovery methods.

[MENTION=1051777]mrcook[/MENTION], what do you think of an attempt to dirty-flash cooked over a stock setup with corrupt /data?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mr-cook:
I say wipe caches and fix permissions first. If that doesn't work format /system, and install a ROM of the same version of android.

After that if it's still not booting suck it up do a full wipe and start from scratch.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
[MENTION=5962041]Mr. Barker[/MENTION]

If the cache wipes / permissions fix doesn't help, then our next attempt is:

**this assumes that you were running stock Android 4.1.2 when the trouble began**

get i777UCMD8 cooked v2.2 onto a flashdrive, (or prepare it for sideload)

reboot to recovery

format /system

install cooked v2.2

attempt to boot into android
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
OK, I'll give it a try, thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
Hooray! All's well that ends well. Flashing i777UCMD8 cooked v2.2 got me up & running again, near-same as I had everything before. Just a little work to do to get it right back how I had it. Thanks a million, gents! :victory:

Two questions remain, for the moment:

+ How can I get the "AM/PM" to display on the notification bar? I'm in the US, and prefer to have this for the 12-hour clock. But using this ROM, it is omitted even when time is set to 12-hour clock.

+ How can I restore the default battery charging icon from the stock firmware? The one that comes bundled with this cooked ROM is needlessly flashy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mr-cook:
Am/pm is gone forever. I removed because I think it looks better without it. Use the sun. You'll get used to it after a couple days and never miss it.

To change the notification background go to the mods section of the installer, and just install the black notification background.

Sent from my SGH-S959G
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
Oh, no, I was afraid you were going to say that. *sigh*

Unfortunately I will not get used to it, and will miss it. It's the little things that really matter to me, and this is one of them.

Is there absolutely no way I can add it back in? Maybe by editing or replacing a certain file? Or perhaps there's a notification bar replacement that will facilitate this need?

Also, how can I restore the default battery charging icon from the stock firmware? The one that comes bundled with this cooked ROM, I feel, is needlessly flashy.

Other than these two points, I am quite pleased with this ROM. Is it just me or does it run a little quicker than the stock one?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
"needlessly flashy"

Simply asking 'how to change the icon' is sufficient, and inherently implies that you prefer something different.

Cooked v2.2 is definitely quicker than stock;

The premise of both cooked and shostock are that they have taken the stock firmware, and stripped it down of unnecessary junk, and run it over a well-optimized kernel for the best touchwiz experience that you could possibly have on this device.

If your firmware desires are different than what cooked v2.2 provides, then I suggest creating a nandroid backup, wiping /system, and giving shostock a try. It's the other touchwiz favorite for the i777, packaged with a different very good kernel, and also runs quicker than stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
To close the loop, now your initial boot screen is a yellow triangle with an exclamation point? It doesn't affect the functionality of the firmware at all, but if you prefer to have the correct initial boot animation, then you'll need to follow an additional procedure.

Summary:

Nandroid-backup desired setup

Flash official stock-firmware to the device via Desktop-Odin (clears the warning)

Root & recovery via Framaroot/Mobile-Odin (a method that does NOT trip the custom-flash monitor)

Restore nandroid to return to the established custom setup

Procedure:

gather onto internal memory, or micro-sd:

-Framaroot

-Mobile Odin APK

-Mobile Odin flash kernel for i777

-Boot.img (extracted from your chosen firmware.zip)

boot to recovery

perform nandroid backup

^^ this MUST complete successfully

perform factory reset

boot to download mode

flash official UCMD8 using Desktop ODIN

^^ clears the custom-flash warning

install and use framaroot

^^ uses an exploit to establish and manage root access

install mobile Odin and the mobile Odin flash-kernel

^^ the method that will NOT trip the custom-flash monitor

flash the boot.img via Mobile Odin

^^ flashes the kernel and recovery of the firmware that you are going to restore

boot to recovery

restore nandroid backup

enjoy

-Cyril
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Mr. Barker:
If I am going to be restoring the nandroid backup, must I install & use the very same firmware that was installed when I made the backup? Or could I, say, simply flash the stock firmware and be done with it? (i.e. not use mobile odin to install a custom firmware afterwards) My point is, are nandroid backups firmware-specific?

If I opt to go the custom firmware route, how do I go about getting the boot.img file? Simply rename zimage, or ???

Before all this I've never flashed anything but stock firmware, and never had to create nor restore nandroid backups. So most of this is all new to me. But I enjoy the learning process.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
Different custom firmwares may be structured differently, so for the lowest likelihood of compatibility issues, nandroid backups should be considered firmware specific.

Edit: As Mentioned below, a CWM nandroid will restore the entire backed-up firmware installation, which can be done over ANY firmware.

If the goal is to keep your App data across different firmwares, then a Titanium backup restoration may be what you're after. /Edit

I don't think that the stock recovery allows to restore nandroid backups at all. The restrictive nature of the stock recovery is one of the more practical reasons to root the device & use a custom kernel.

Mobile Odin will flash a zImage, no need to rename it. I didn't check to see that shostock or cooked use a zImage instead of boot.img.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] desteele:
?? I thought that because a nandroid copied (backup) and then formatted/recopied the 5 partitions (restore), that it didn't matter what firmware you had installed?
