Offer a reverse flash able zip file to revert changes made by this app

As the title says, in an event changes made by this app either don't work or there is some sort of corruption to the file system after having applied its changes.

You could also do good by making all of this open source on git hub or elsewhere so anyone can know what this app actually does.

For now, it's a blind install.

no source code, no explanation of how it works.

! NOTICE to mods: I've emailed personally the dev about this. I'm attempting to get some traction for attention toward this app for auditing by you guys. I'm going out on a limb here, but this app could be malware.

! Additional NOTICE to mods: After applying the changes this app offers, my root directory files are no longer writable. Root apps like ad away, after having checked and downloaded source files to append to the hosts file, causes my device to force reboot. This was not common behaviour BEFORE installing this app.

So, now, i address this to both op and mods in closing: I'm either mistaken about this app being malware, and it unintentionally messed up my filesystem, by which, the op offers some sort of reverse flash able zip, or an explanation as to what this does internally is explained by op, and offers a warning: 'this will not work for xx device', use at your own discretion', to introduce some sort of caution to anyone else that decides to install this app and give it root access.

Ok, I await a response from either op or mods. I do hope op first responds and clears all of this up. And, also offers a reverse flash able zip.

NOTE: inside the app, there's an option to download an additional file to offer help in fixing the issue in the case the default fix doesn't work. It always downloads corrupted for me.

Do you-Op- care to share the vinnyfix.zip here for download?

Instead of posting this long post you just could have clicked on "report to moderators" and get response from them directly. All stuff shared in XDA does have a clause:

"I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because an app/function failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about this app/ROM/kernel/etc"​

Hi! I saw plenty of wireless charging pads on ebay, that can be put under the phone cover, but will they fit under the basic battery cover? Do I need to buy a thicker extended cover, does anyone have experience with these stuff?

I've been using one for months now and love it.

The one I have fits great under the stock cover.

QI charging works for me, even when the phone's off. I love it. I have one of those stick-on pads that uses the phone contacts.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BillzillaAus:
I have a wireless charger kit I got from a Chinese shop, it works great. Charges as fast as plugging it in.

I got it mainly because my last phone had the USB connector start to fail from repeated usage. I also have a bluetooth dongle on my PC and that's how I transfer photo to it, so my phone pretty much never gets plugged-in.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Fevves:
Pics of your QI pad, QI charger with phone screenshot charging data on QI wireless pls. If not, it never happened as pads are usually tagged up to 650-700 mAh, some could be tagged at 1000 mAh (but can not charge at that rate even if the QI charger is good, had one and tossed it away cause of bulge too).

I have the Ravpower QI charger tagged at 1000 mAh, Ravpower slim pad rated at 650 mAh and that's exactly what I'm getting from it - 650 mAh charging.

Dunno how could you get from 1200 to 1600 mAh from yours though... unless you consider 650 mAh rate as a "normal" charging rate.

Btw, you can transfer w/e you like via WiFi and with some good WiFi manager app, it's a lot faster then BT sheite.

@OP, you might search a bit on XDA re QI wireless charging pads and chargers. There are slim and not so slim pads. My advice is to calculate good as each and every one of them is going to get you a slight bulge on your phone back, no matter which one you choose. Better choose a ultra slim then a 1mm one...

Remedy would be to cut out a battery cover and use a good protective case in case you opt for a slim and tiny pad. Might not like that, but that's an option if you want your phone laying down on flat surface as it is now - flat on the flat surfaces.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BillzillaAus:
Here's a pic, it did happen.

Got it from here - http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-...r-Receiver-for-Samsung-Galaxy/1298147299.html
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Fevves:
Yeah, good to see your 600 mAh pad (based on the photo of it from your link) is charging at (what?) rate... say at least 1200 mAh (?), while your QI charger is outputting at max 1000mAh? :silly:

See, IMO it still does not compute and you can't get nothing more then 600-650 mAh from it, let alone 1000 mAh seen your pad is tagged at max. 600 mAh. :eek:

Showing the back of your charger is proving nothing at all, just so you know it, even your perception of charging times suggests something different.

@OP: Good QI and wireless charging will give 650-700 mAh tops, while on the AC charger and original cable can range from 1000 to 1600 mAh. On good and advanced USB PC ports you could get up to 1000 mAh (my case with Maximus Formula 6 USB ports).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BillzillaAus:
Well boo-hoo princess, you are simply wrong.

It does charge very quickly, much faster than the previous one I had and about as fast as plugging the phone in. I don't have to plug the phone in to charge it any more or transfer photos so the USB port in it is going to last quite a long time.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Fevves:
@OP: sorry for this OT, but this guy seem to be writing a whole bunch of pompous ideas on his personal perception of the QI charging on SGS4.

"Boo-hoo princess" at me? "About fast as plugging the phone in"? What a true comedian you are... I can only grin and lol at your statements.

Wake up from that crazy dream of yours and quit blabbing around, spouting nonsenses. Technical facts all around XDA and Internet re adopted, custom implemented QI charging are not backing up your statement at all, alongside me telling you that imputing

2000 mAh

from the wall charger that can be outputted up to

max 1000 mAh

from YOURS no name OEM QI charging unit to the no name OEM QI pad module, while you're using a no name OEM QI pad of

650 mAh

max on a secondary battery contacts of your SGS4 phone = recharge rate of

1200-1600 mAh

(???) = as fast charging rate as on wall charger(???)

Yeah right!

You're the new Tesla alright...:silly:

Then again... Continue writing that BS of yours and continue telling others to believe they'll pull 1200 to 1600 mAh charging rate from a no name POS combos on their SGS4. Bonus and btw, do continue using that slow BT instead of a WiFi for your transfers. I'm sure BT yields a better transfer rates then WiFi B/G/N if you're the one using it. I'm also certain that many users will follow your lead and advices. :good::eek:

/oao
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BillzillaAus:
I did some careful checking and it the wireless charging starts at around 850 ma. The Ac charger I have starts at 1100 ma so a bit less than what I thought but a lot more than what you thought.

And because you're an arse you are now the first on my ignore list.

I did the palm pre mod, and I would not reccommend it. I fould that ot bulked out the case and made cases fit weird. If you do wireless charging i would get the legit one
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] HKSpeed:
I use a Qi wireless charging sticker/pad I got for $12 on ebay or Amazon (i forgot). The bulge under the original battery cover made the phone difficult to fit with my UAG case, so I bought a spare battery cover ($5 on ebay) and cut an opening to match the charging pad. I covered the opening with vinyl sticker to prevent dust from getting in. Now it fits perfectly in my UAG and Speck Candyshell cases. I use a LG WCP-300 charger that outputs at 1A.

No samsung phone supports qi wireless charging pass 650mAh, no matter what the input states on the receiver.

Anything above 1000mAh will generation too much heat, only the LG G2 can charge upto 996mAh.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Fevves:
So true! Also the heat is the major breaking factor in wireless charging (all should know that and thank you for pointing that out), but that particular troll hid under his cozy little rock thinking he can get 1200 to 1600 mA out of his, now rectifying to obnoxious 1100... LOL at him and his BS comments.

I just hope no one will listen to his BS crap.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kms108:
When it comes to qi wireless charging, I think I'm quite experienced on this, afterall, I've been with these for a good few years before it actually became a mainstream product, I also get many of the new stuff first hand, not to mention I was offered test a A4WP wireless charging sample, but I turn the offer down.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Fevves:
I have no doubt man. I tried no name pads aside few others wit ha good name too. In my small experience few of them are really worthy of hassle to modify (cut out) the back cover so to get zero bulge, no excessive heat and still have upto 650 mAh charge. It is a great way to recharge the phone, seen it will end up lying on the desk for some time doing nothing ;)

Thanks for your support and I hope [MENTION=5532713]balakor[/MENTION] and some other people without much experience will not opt for market hoaxes and blasphemy about >1000 mAh, and even greater, QI wireless charging. I would suggest to choose wisely and fork some buck on the good ones, rather on BS elements.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] balakor:
Thanks for the advices. I saw 1000mAh pads too, I almost bought one, but I saw these experiences, and I think a more expensieve but slim one will do the work. But cutting off my back cover is not a way for me. :) And we have to accept, that ~650mAh is a technology limit, there are no miracles.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BillzillaAus:
If you lot are going to make up lies about what I wrote, how about making them big ones?

You know, like how I said the phone charges at 10 amps with my Tesla pad in my pocket and the charger in another country and it'll run for two months on a charge.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kms108:
It doesn't matter what receiver you buy, the input power is limited by the phone, and not the receiver, this has always been the case with samsung phones that support optional wireless charging.

[LG Optimus G Pro] mityman50:
Hey all, so I just replaced the screen (followed the great guide on this site) and now I'm getting some odd behavior when trying to boot.

The power button is completely unresponsive. When I plug the phone into power, the LG screen comes up for ~3 seconds, as normal. The LED is flashing thru all the colors per the usual as well. Then the screen goes black for another 3 seconds, all the while the LED flashing. Then LG pops up again just for a moment, then to the normal phone-is-off-but-charging screen, with the LED flashing red.

Really don't know what to make of this. I had it rooted with a one-click root from here. The only changes were deleting stock apps and enabling the front touch keys (but never had an issue with it booting after this, I did that at least a week ago). Also my PC recognizes that something is plugged in, so I guess that's good.

Thoughts?

Update: tried booting into recovery mode, I held the buttons for much longer than normal to no response. As soon as I let go, I get the LG screen. Then black. Then LG. Then an unusually long AT&T screen, then it booted. Now the power button works as it should, and it boots in that same odd fashion. And it seems that I can not go into recovery. Yikes.

I'd be fine with that except I have a dead zone across the lower portion of the screen, it's about a half inch tall and about covers the asdfgh... row of the keyboard. Weirdly if I start pressing on any other key and then swipe to any area in the "dead" zone it WILL register, as in, I can select the S key, normally in the dead zone, but swiping to it from a working area. Will try soaking the mobo in alcohol and swabbing the digitzer connector with a q-tip. Any other thoughts?

Update 2: I tried cleaning the contacts of the digitzer connection- both the end of the cable and the motherboard connection- with rubbing alcohol. Reassembled, and we're back to square one. Power button unresponsive, when plugged in I'll get the LG screen, then black, then the LG screen will flash and I'll get the chargining screen. But now, trying to boot into recovery mode does nothing. So then I soaked the mobo in alcohol, and cleaned ALL the contacts and ribbon cables on the frame. Reassembled, no change. I really hope someone sees this, as I'm at he end of my tech know-how. Tonight I'll try to reconnect my old touchscreen and see what happens. Maybe the new one is just defective? But you'd think the phone would still turn on...

God I hope somebody sees this. I feel like a complete nut talking to myself.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Fant0m3:
Okay sounds like a hardware issue with the power button being unresponsive. I would take the device apart look around all connections of the power button and look for any hair line cracks or dirty, sticky, grimmy connections. Try cleaning upall that stuff, while there I would look at the digitizer and clean that up. When done flash a new rom with the LG flash tool, allow boot and reboot normally several times before testing. I hope this helps I am new to the phone and have yet to get my repair kit for it so I will not know much more about it till I get into it myself. Hair line cracks can be easily fixed as long as its on the sadder areas. Just re sadder it

---------- Post added at 09:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

Now for the weird flashing on and off booting mine does this as well but all functions regardless are working flawlessly. My phone will need serious structural repairs but nothing I can't do just had a horrible owner. Definitely worth the trouble this thing runs so smooth better than any other I have used and it will continue to hold for a couple years cause of the power behind it. I wouldn't worry about the booting flashing like that I'm just thinking it does this to show it has been tampered with.
[LG Optimus G Pro] mityman50:
Hey man thanks for your reply. Reminded me to update this for anyone else who finds it.

So the new screen was definitely defective. The one time I managed to get it on there was a dead spot. I sent it back, a replacement is on its way.

Now the good news- I realized why my phone wouldn't boot. Turns out that when removing the motherboard, the top part of it got a little... bent. Nothing bad, nothing permanent, but when I mounted back onto the housing, the top part of it had a tendency to stick up a little bit. Well if you follow the small ribbon cable off the power button, it leads to two gold contacts. Sure enough on on the bottom side of the motherboard there are two nodes that would press against the contacts.

Basically, the power button wasn't even connected to the board. :p

So I actually put the whole thing together, screws and all, and with that, the motherboard sits snugly as it should and the button works fine.

Right now my phone is some sort of hacked up zombie, with a cracked up screen, an upper-left corner that's completely decimated/missing, and no adhesive to hold it together. Hopefully the screen makes it here soon!

Oh and I agree totally, this is the smoothest and most reliable Android I've owned, better than the Evo 3D (which I quite liked) and a GS3 (meh, it got very unreliable after a year). I'm happy the screen replacement is cheap and easy so I can keep this thing for at least another year.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Fant0m3:
Cool glad it worked out for you or hopefully will. Can you do me a solid once your screen comes in and if it replaced well all working that is could you post the site you got it on or pm me with it. I am here tons of issues with defective screens. Would like to have a reliable market to shop from.
[LG Optimus G Pro] nohamSam:
I have never had a bad part for any kind of phone from Wholesale Gadget Parts in Bixby, OK (Tulsa area). I found them on Amazon and originally ordered because they were close and I was in a hurry. I kept ordering because they get it right. I have about a 50/50 success rate with phone parts off other sellers on Amazon. If you buy cheap, expect a high failure rate.

Glass and digitizer for G Pro is about $18 before shipping and any applicable tax.

Hey guys, I just bought two new phones to replace my Captivate (I hate parting with that phone) and my S2 T989. Now I'm the owner of a new Samsung Avant SM- G386T and an S5 G900T.

I want to root the S5 and I've read around to learn about getting it rooted and I've not been able to get any real clear answer of the best way and the easiest way. Does Towel work on the ANE6 or not? Can it be done through Mobile Odin? Will it or will it not effect the Knox counter?

So much for having only a simple question.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiserXDA:
Okay, thanks. I appreciate the answer. I'm still reading all the posts I can on getting this S5 rooted. It drives me nuts not having access to files and to get rid of bloatware. I'll do a ROM a little later. I don't really care about tripping Knox, but I'd rather not. And as of a few weeks ago I don't have a PC to use. So I'll keep reading and see what I can do.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aregvadfbg:
Actually you can root the S5 without tripping Knox with the Towelroot method. I'm not sure if your model is supported, though, you will have to check that or just try if ist works.
