I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 AT&T and for about a year and a half always wanted to root it but had no idea how. I had an iPhone a while back and used to jailbreak it I became an expert at it. Rooting is not so easy compared at least with the problems I've been experiencing

I started by watching hundreds of root videos and ended up rooting it with Odin and Kit Kat tar file im not sure of the specific file but I'm almost 100% it was my version 4.4.2 that I flashed.

After I did this I downloaded the basics and tried to get TWRP but gooManager wasnt working for some reason.

I tried to flash the Cyanongen 11 onto my phone using the installer for the comp and on google play store and it worked up until the end I got the dead droid symbol for a bit and it finished downloading to show the "ROM may flash stock recover on boot. Fix?" error message and I selected no and "Root Access Possibly Lost Fix?" I also selected no. My phone booted with no custom rom still rooted and most of my apps are unresponsive and close randomly except facebook and youtube.

I decided I wanted to return it to stock rom and try again but when I downloaded the stock tar file and tried to flash it I got this

I'm not sure what to do because I cant return it to stock rom, clockmod recovery has stopped working, and every video I watch about how to fix it is only making it worse.

If you have any idea what I can do or what I'm doing wrong let me know.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Odin failed because you cannot flash older firmware. Your best bet is to reflash recovery via Odin, then if you want stock go to enewman17's stock rom/system dump thread in development and flash the rom and factory reset.

Can the Touchpad Toolbox be updated to so that it will accept GAPPS named pa_gapps-*4.4.4-*.zip instead of pa_gapps-*-4.4.2-*.zip?

Either that or remove or allow to skip the requirement that GAPPS zip must be present to do the "Install Android" selection. I eventually worked around it rejecting by renaming the 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 but it will probably frusturate novice users.

TP Toolbox failed; I'm OS-less; please help

I'm on a Mac.

I can't figure out how to make tptoolbox work on the Mac.

I went to a frustrated friend with a PC (Windows) who did not allow me enough time to complete my task.

My Touchpad is now OS-less, as in no OS; no WebOS, no Android.

I successfully did a full data wipe, twice. Thus no OS.

I couldn't get past the next step, install Android, on TPToolbox.

I got stimied after trying to copy the three files to the ttinstall folder. It said a proper recovery file was not found.

I followed the steps above to a T. I copied and pasted the three files from the windows batch to the ttinstall.

I realize in those three files there were no gapps, no recovery, no kitkat files.

So I hope I copied the right three.

Anyway, my frustrated impatient friend kicked me out, so I have no access to a PC anymore (just my old faithful Mac); I have a TP without an operating system on it; and I have no idea how to proceed (as I don't know which three files I'm supposed to copy and paste as it seems the ones I did copy and paste weren't the ones and there's no Gapps, no Recovery and no Android KitKat installs anywhere (I thought that would be within the TP Toolbox programme itself.)

Like I said, I clicked on the correct links, I went with JCSullins first link vs. the other two.

So somebody, anybody, write me back if they know either how I can proceed, or if I can just send you my TP and you can do a big favour for a small nobody.

Thanks everybody.

If not, anyone wanna buy a TP with no OS?

Kit Kat working

OK, like the chap above, I moved the wrong three files into the ttinstall folder. I figured that out. It's the way the thread was written, easy to get confused as they have links right below and say it's those, when in fact it is not (a gapps, recovery and rom need to be moved in there, not the data version of android as that link downloads). Anyway, I sorted it out. Just putting closure on that. Thanks JCSullins! Now we need a Mac version so I need not borrow a friends PC laptop. :)

I did a quick search online and found that Macs don't handle the .sh command, rather the command is, believe it or not, .command.

More that that I'm a novice. So I can't say.

And that's when I went to borrow a friend's PC whereupon I double clicked the .win file, extracted it, then ran it in the ensuing window no problem.

--------------------

Now I'm glad someone is reading this thread. I have a question for you (or anyone). Now that I've TP Toolbox'd my HP Touchpad (and I did not select the option to install WebOS on it), how do I transfer files from my Mac (preferred method) to the HP Touchpad now?

I put it in recovery mode (the big USB sign) but it didn't show up on my Mac desktop. It was unrecognized in the Finder too.

So I went back to my friend on hands and knees and am now using TP Toolbox to put an updated file into the ttinstall folder. Is TP Toolbox now the only way to get files on and off my Touchpad? Say it ain't so (and walk me through the process if it ain't so).

There must be an easier way. What am I to do? Please help. Thanks.

Would you please give me some navigation techniques, to get me there?

I can put the TP Toolbox (and associated files) in my Downloads or Desktop (on my Mac).

I use a Mac in part because I'm not a 'Terminal' navigation expert.

The only command I know is CD (for change directory).

Would you please give me some 'Terminal' navigation techniques, to get me there (to the desktop or downloads, you decide) and I'll try again?

Thanks.

--------------------------------------

Following up:

1. I can take a screenshot by pressing power and volume down button; the difference here is since TPToolbox, my TP's volume buttons are reversed, Up is Down and Down is Up, took me time to figure that out for the screenshot capability. Also there is no visual reference to Screenshots when I click on the Power button and wait a few seconds, like there used to be, thus my confusion. But I figured it out.

2. I'd still love to know what happened to Preware and all that (as referenced above).

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcsullins:
Looks like you ran "novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh" while the device was in webOS recovery (i.e. the big USB symbol). You have to run that while webOS is booted (not in webOS recovery). Note step 7 from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52922166&postcount=64 and how it mentions the select-languages screen. Also, you shouldn't need to change the date/time settings doing it this way.

So, boot into webOS and reset any date/time settings you changed back to normal, and then redo the "palmenv" and the "novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh". The second one should only give an "OK".

Hello All

I am trying to put Android for the first time into the Wifi touchpad. Have installed all the Novacom, webos doctor etc, and I am using the Touchpad Tool box tool V41.

I am unable to get past the stage of verifying all the zip files.

I am trying the following combination of files

cm-11-20140625-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin.zip

gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip

update-TWRP-jcs-dm-tenderloin-20140512.zip

I have tried a few other combinations as well. Every time I couldn't get past the stage of "checking install files"

While checking of cm-11-20140625-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin.zip and gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip proceeds without any problem, the checking of the update-TWRP-jcs-dm-tenderloin-20140512.zip returns with an error "Unrecognized/Unsupported zip 'update-TWRP-jcs-dm-tenderloin-20140512.zip'

How do I identify a set of 3 compatible zip files?

I have tried some more combinations but couldn't get past the first stage with every time returning an error while checking for the "update.zip" file.

Can some one help please? Thanks for your time.
