Although I tried various ...

I write below the work that I've tried.

*Working with non-TOOL KIT depends on the opensource.dell.com.

1. I gave a Unbricking Process again. (roll back to the 4.4.2)

Fastboot mode is not valid in this state.

Also in process of restarting at TOOL KIT, it does not take into fastboot mode even Reboot the tablet and press power + volumn down button.

2. I have enabled the fastboot mode of opensource.dell.com the "Enable fastboot mode" process in 4.4.2 above.

Therefore, I tried to start the run-me.bat,

> writing '/sbin/adbd' ...

> FAILED (remote: flash cmds error!)

Error display came out with.

3. I gave a Unbricking Process again. (roll back to the 4.4.2)

Apply OTA update for first time. (update 4.4.4)

(Fastboot mode is enabled this update later)

I tried to start the run-me.bat,

> writing '/sbin/adbd' ...

> FAILED (remote: flash cmds error!)

Error display again.

4. Apply OTA update for the second time. (update 4.4.4)

Run run-me.bat. The same error is displayed, rooting failed.

It is regrettable, but I tried writing to '/sbin/adbd' has become an error.

[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
Could you upload the ota some where?
[Dell Venue] Santin:
I Uploaded to google drive the OTA package, I sent a PM who wrote the url.
[Dell Venue] hharte:
I finally received my new Dell 3840 today and was able to capture some details about the OTA update using Wireshark.

http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=YTP802A119530 will bring you to a webpage where you can download the OTA package: YTP802A125330-i-YTP802A119530-2014-08-23-38.pkg

Alternatively, you can just download this:

http://mobileupdate.dell.com/Packag...P802A125330-i-YTP802A119530-2014-08-23-38.pkg

The .pkg file is just a regular update.zip. If you rename it to YTP802A125330-i-YTP802A119530-2014-08-23-38.pkg.zip, you can unzip it.

It looks like the Android updater also pulls down a couple other files from Google:

Didn't root

OK, I followed the instructions at the site above. The "rooted" image installed correctly (at least, there were no errors from fastboot), and everything went fine. The only problem is that the tablet isn't rooted following the reboot. When I use super su, it says there's no su binary installed on the system.
[Dell Venue] hharte:
There is no SU (ie, no Superuser.apk.) You will have root access through ADB. Ie:

$ adb devices
List of devices attached
Medfield317A5CF8	device
$ adb shell
root@Venue8:/ #

It is more of a developer-grade root...
[Dell Venue] sharpe15:
Su

Can I then use ADB to install su?
[Dell Venue] joanthanmajh:
Yes
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
You need to push su and demon to xbin set permission, write to or create install_recovery.sh forcing demon to start on reboot, then you can use such apps.

[Dell Venue] sharpe15:
ADB push

I'll have to play with it. ADB push doesn't work, I don't have permissions on xbin.
[Dell Venue] hharte:
By default, the system partition is mounted read only.

Use "adb remount" before trying to mkdir /system/xbin and pushing the files.

Did you get a chance to test that kit I sent you?
[Dell Venue] Haxxa:
So would you like me to test this on a rooted 3840? Do you yet know if it works on the 3840?
[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
No one has confirmed but both devices use the same ROM from what I've reviewed.
[Dell Venue] Haxxa:
OK cool sounds good I will test it when my tablet arrives, regardless the best way of obtaining root would be through flashing the image found in this thread, right? Sorry for all these questions but just bought the tablet and the information for the 3840 is scattered around a bit.
[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
This is developer root meaning adb root shell for debugging no SU you'd have to install su manually but part of this threads method unlocks your bootloader
[Dell Venue] Mentatal:
Waiting for device

Before I get into anything, I would just like to make it clear that I'm pretty new to the android rooting world. It took me a while to figure out that to prepare i needed to begin with system installations of the JAVA JDK, and then Android studio (at least I think i needed these things).

I am working on a windows 7 machine and trying to root my friends dell venue 8 3840 tablet. He wants to run Game of War and apparently its not supported.

So far I have followed all of the instructions from the Dell open source document up to step 12.

(http://opensource.dell.com/releases/Venue_8_3840_Merrifield/developer-edition/Doc/OSS_A195.pdf)

"12. Double click file “P802_flash_device_wifi_only.bat” or “P802_flash_device_lte.bat” in SW

image folder. The following CMD window will show up, and begin to flash OS system

image."

However, when I run the “P802_flash_device_wifi_only.bat” the console sits on "waiting for device" and never recognizes it.

Prior to this I changed the system environment variables to reflect

V Name: ADB

V Value: C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools

V Name: Path

V Value: ;C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools

V Name: Java_Home

V Value: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_79

The information for all of this is scattered around, so its been a struggle to line up everything that I need to do from step one. I did read that my issue may be occurring because the driver loaded on the Fastboot device is the ADB driver.

Can I get some reassurance that I'm doing some of this correctly? And if I'm not then please lend a hand. I'm willing to donate if some one can help me out.

I've been following along using Social Media Concepts method here (http://xdaforums.com/dell-venue/development/guide-how-to-root-android-4-4-4-dell-t2918427/page1) and I wish I could post to that page, but I don't have the privileges yet... Just made this account to try and get some help because at this point I can't get the device to load the operating system, all it does is load the fastboot / droidboot screen.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sukrith:
Hi... So I'm not sure if its bad or just but I only get around 2~3hrs of screen on time on me n5!!! What all I've enabled and disabled are in the below list

Stock ROM and kernel, xposed and v4a

Auto brightness

High accuracy location settings

No haptic feedback

3G data with intermittent browsing...

18hrs+ on battery on the above said configuration

V4A and Google play music draining battery by 10℅ every 15mins even on power saving drivers

I greenify apps like messenger and all except WhatsApp...

I have only essential apps such as gravitybox notification mod lightflow etc...

I only use my phone intermittently... And that too for browsing and stuff... No games!!!

So according to this how much time of screen on time should I get?!?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
there is no correct answer. your phone/data signal quality is all important in battery life. and only you know how youy personally use your device. anyways, disable autobrighness and set it below 30%
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Try the first 4 posts in the battery thread in my signature. You can seek help there also, with the right screen shots, as shown in post 4.

---------- Post added at 08:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 PM ----------

High accuracy location can be a drain. Poor signal as said by Mr. Simms can destroy a battery. And auto brightness is much more a drain than setting it manually and keeping as low as is comfortable.

Just a few things.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
High accuracy locations, auto brightness, using data instead of WiFi, gravitybox, lightflow, V4A. You're actually getting good battery life considering, you shouldn't expect much more with those settings.

Easiest things to change would be: use WiFi, and manually set your brightness below 50% indoors, 20-30% is ideal.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sukrith:
I think v4a is a major cause... I charge it fully in the morning and when I listen to it for say 15mins... 10℅ or so battery is drained!!! And how does gravity box drain ones battery?!? I also don't have WiFi... Only 3G data from carrier...

Some seemed to have root, if you are willing to unlock the bootloader, install the experimental CWM, and flash the latest SuperSU beta.

http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/help/moto-x-2014-dump-t2868250/post55628034

Not a real issue if you have the pure edition (as far as I know unlocking the bootloader on the pure edition does not void your warranty). But currently I can't find the working CWM.

If people are looking for root w/o unlocking the bootloader then I think we will need more time.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynterend:
My Pure Edition arrived around noon today (the 24th).

Unlocked the bootloader, then I installed the test version of CWM, then I installed SuperSU

Launched SuperSU app and it seemed to work so I went ahead and went crazy...

Currently rocking a device with all my apps & data (thanks Titanium Backup!) and with a few UI tweaks (thanks Xposed and GravityBox!)

I can vouch it is all working 100% and is safe if you can follow instructions. Everything I needed was in this thread:http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/help/moto-x-2014-dump-t2868250 Test version #8 of CWM is the one you want; page 9 I believe.

Oh, sure. Where do people like stuff uploaded to? Dropbox? Drive? Somewhere else?

Just saw your edit. Not sure, I went ahead and just flashed it. I'm just going to leave it there until somebody ports TWRP to the new X (probably only a matter of days). Never tried just booting it - should maybe work; but again, can't say for sure.

This thread is the first I'm seeing where people are actually saying root was "achieved" and it is also conflicting because you yourself indicated a custom recovery was needed, which this thread indicates is not accurate.

With an unlocked bootloader, achieving root will never be a problem on any device, AFAIK.

tapped out via XT1053 DE
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrokenWall:
A custom recovery is still needed, they are just doing it without flashing the recovery to the phone. They are booting the recovery image from a file. Which is what I did since it still has problems.

Other options such as:

Superboot/RootBoot (Kernel)

APK Install

One Click Root

or other simple user friendly options have not been developed yet
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomadism:
Exactly. Getting a working recovery was the only issue. And we have it now - at least of the Pure edition where there is zero issues with unlocking the bootloader.

He is saying both options worked....
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrokenWall:
I give up. I have explained plenty of times. And anyone that has taken the time to read will notice that the Custom Recovery is required in order to get root. Anyone that has rooted the phone (like me and others) have had to use a recovery. Whether we flashed it or booted it.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knitler:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] asadkhanduhh:
Hi all,

Its been less than two weeks since ive received my xperia z ultra. I really enjoy the device and speak only highly about it.

With that said, I've been having a lot of trouble with small but annoying problems.

Since ive received the device i haven't been able to connect bluetooth to my wireless bluetooth sony speaker. The xperia z ultra will not detect that or any other bluetooth device.

Ive made sure to review all the settings in bluetooth, and selected 'make device visible to others' option and still no results. Its very frustrating because my xperia z would easily connect to the very same sony bluetooth speaker.

Any clarity on this issue, and or a remedy?
