Hello guys, I'm new to xda ... I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 Clone With root permissions already pre-installed ... I would change the bootimage clone, but I'm afraid to risk a boot loop! and can it happen?

Hi.

I'm from Portugal. My operator is MEO. I have an SP model C5303 with android 4.1.2 - 12.0.A.2.254. It´s rooted and it has CWM-based recovery v6.0.3.2 installed.

Received a notification update to oficial 12.1.A.1.205.

Is it safe to update? Is it possible to root the new version?

Thanks
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tech N You:
After rooting Never recieve any OTA (Over the Air) update from SONY or Carrier as it will brick your device!

If you want to port to official 4.3 JB .205 Firmware then you should do it via Flashtool. Download your stock .FTF file and flash it via Flashtool.

Warning - While flashing your all data will be lost so it is advised to make a nandroid backup before proceeding!

Did I help! If yes then hit thanks :)

I suppose it will be unrooted after updating.

This thread is for firmware 12.1.A.205 root it with one click ;)

And yeah you will loose your root access but if you're on UBL (Unlocked bootloader) it will stay that way only (your bootloader status will stay unlocked but root access would be lost after flashing the stock kerne)

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ParrSt:
... to "flash" or otherwise install theme type mods such as changing a notification icon, without recovery? I had experimented with framework type flashable zip files to do with on my GS3 and always flashed from recovery. I am trying to (at least for now) keep from tripping my KNOX.

Also is there a wifi hotspot app or mod that also does not require recovery?

With a towel root, I can probably do everything I want, and keep my KNOX at 0, if I can do these two things.

Bob
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Sure. It's just more work. Having root gives you the necessary permissions to change system files and do anything that a (recovery) flashable zip file would.

But pragmatically, it wouldn't be reasonable to expect everyone going around writing custom install scripts for your theme mods when the common practice is to package them as a flashable zip.

The solution? It would be eminently useful to learn how to make manual changes yourself. Theme mods typically modify a system file e.g. TouchWizHome.apk or SystemUI.apk. You can make simple edits or replace packages with a root aware file browser e.g. FX. And more advanced edits with a decompiler like apktool.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ParrSt:
Oh I don't expect others to make my scripts. I was making the zip packages myself.

If I understand you correctly, I can use something like FX to replace the an icon in one of the .apks? Those are zip type files but FX can do that?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
As I already said, yes you can. Icons are (usually) especially easy. It's literally just replacing an icon with a file browser, usually in the xxhdpi360 drawable folder of the apk.

Something like

Copy the apk to another directory or your PC

Temporarily rename the .apk to a .zip file

Use FX Root to browse the compressed file and locate the icon you want to change.

Delete the icon from the zip.

Drag and drop the new icon to replace it.

Rename the .zip back to .apk

Browse to the folder where you copied the apk from

Rename the original .apk to .bak in case you need it later

Move your modified apk to the directory

Confirm that the permissions are still 0644 (long press to check.. but I've never seen FX mess them up to start with).

Reboot

That may look like a lot of steps but they are all trivial and you can do the entire thing in about 60 seconds.

Features e.g. suppressing nags or some colour changes may require decompiliing an apk.

Hello to all, I am relatively new to the world of rooting, have succesfully rooted/unlocked galaxy tabs (various models), HTC AMAZE 4G. so i have a tad bit of experience to say the least. However, my UG007B will not connect to the pc, have scoured the web and xda developers forum for drivers, but even that and holding the reset button down don't work (which maybe broken). Anyways, is there a pre-rooted firmware I could update via ClockworkMod 'ROM MANAGER' App, by downloading the .zip file from the sd card. OR via the TERMINAL (please provide link to scripts, Posted Instructions, thx)

Is there a way I can root it without pc connection, or should I just return it?:( If this can be done, any links to some good custom rooted firmwares or ROMS. (CAN you even flash Custom ROMS without Root. As far as I know, you can't. but then again im still a NOOB.)

Last Question:(purchase decision advice, $50 at stake) I shelled out Fifty Bucks for this tab and would like to GET ALL THE FEATURES I CAN FROM IT. Am I really missing anything by NOT Rooting the device? I mean I mainly just use it for High Res. 720p/1080p playback, along with games, and web browsing.

Any help would be more than appreciated, as information relayed to me, will in turn allow me to contribute to the Site Forums:cool: :good:

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] monivan:
My bad, I should have said more clearly. I should have said Stock or Stock based. Anw, the problem is that s-force and auto rotate haven't been ported to custom rom. So that last question is just a security question to verify, if ur configuration is good to go with ur rom or not.

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Metallijim:
Good suggestion, but that will need alot of work. Think we should wait until it is ported, as then this will work nicely over the top.I think first is to try to sort the rotation out so you don't need to turn the phone upside down. [emoji1]
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] RJASSI21:
Hmm you dont need to rotate upside down thats good will that be available in next update or can you walk me through it? and yeah I dont think DSEE HX will be ported because [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] said some lib files wont work because of the processor but other files like audio from HTC may and I noticed that headphones sound slightly louder with my xz2 tab and that has no mods but thats minor I did notice when I turn the volum close to max I distrorts badly with headphones also.
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Metallijim:
Good luck!

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 PM ----------

Next update for fixed rotation (hopefully). Can't say my headphones distort at max, but I usually use my soundmagic pl21's so they might handle more than the box ones. If it does distort, I would just turn the volume down. [emoji4]
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] monivan:
Abt speaker distortion, u say? Why don't u choose lower volume in the aroma? And headphone, i am not sure since I have not tested it myself
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] RJASSI21:
Yeah id do the same its a minor error doesnt bother me that much I use my sony sbh52 so im always using Bluetooth audio

---------- Post added at 08:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 PM ----------

I choose lowest and it occurs but its not that bad like I said ill just keep it lower because I know its trying to go louder than it should and defult is good enough and I use Bluetooth audio 9 times out of 10
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] monivan:
Btw, headphone volume is a fixed value. Changing in the aroma only affect speakers. U only need to tune it down if ur speaker is distorting, is it?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] RJASSI21:
No my speaker doesnt but it doesnt matter its not bad at all it was just something I wanted to mention
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] monivan:

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] RJASSI21:

Just to let you know it was clear bass that was distrorting with and without headphones so that has to be turned down but that only happens with full volume

Also found one strange "thing" on V4

Earspeaker in-call volume is all the time very high, no matter what level I set...volume not changing at all.

Is this somekind of bug or...!?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Metallijim:
Hmm......I just tested mine, and the volume is changing as expected when I'm pressing the volume buttons. Might be that you have the mod installed with a high volume, so the difference is small between low and high.

Also are you using any of the equalisers for the in call settings/call settings/equaliser?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Jaaguar86:
I use call settings equalizer - smooth

And okei, i tried more...volume is changing but lowest volume level is still too loud for me...

When I installed this mod, i set earpiece volume value as I remember "Loud"
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Metallijim:
Maybe just have a play with the volume in the aroma. Hope you find the volume that's right for you.

No other sound mods installed?
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Jaaguar86:
I have no other sound mods installed, only this one.

Please tell me, when I flash this mod again and again with different options...do I have to wipe something or just flash this over again??
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Metallijim:
No wipe required, it changes the related file, you could also use the restore, or back to stock option first, just to be sure.
