SGH-M919 CF Auto Root (Odin issue)

First and foremost thank you Chainfire for providing the resource to root my phone. What I am trying to do is use auto root to root my T-Mobile Galaxy S4 running on Kit Kat 4.4.4 build # KTU84P.M919UVFNH7 which I found the applicable Autoroot download for.

However when I connect the phone to ODIN the device name does not show up what shows up is "ID:0/003>" Is this an issue with the phone settings or the computer settings? I am using a HP Pavilion Slimline 4000 Windows 8 using classic shell. Would greatly appreciate some help. Thank you in advance

Google Services (Google Play Store, Google Games, etc.) stopped working

My Google Services stopped working when I rooted my M919 using this method. But it works after I unroot it. When I enter the Google Play Store when my device is rooted, it displays "Server Error" and I can't do anything. This only happens when I root my phone. I have tried clearing the cache and data from Google Play Store, Google Services, Download Manager, and Google Framework but they didn't solve the problem. Please help if you had a similar situation and managed to solve it.

CF-Auto-Root SGH-M919 UVUFNH7

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me whether this CF-Auto-Root works for my SGH-M919 on UVUFNH7? I tried using Towelroot and got a message that it is not supported at this time.

Thanks very much,

Hey man this was happening to me, not sure if it was the root though. I fixed it by unmounting my SDcard and mounting it again

for some reason my phone kept trying to calculate how much storage I had, and nothing will download when you storage is in question.

Hello,

Where can I see the default settings of my phone? And where to see the defaults of pull down bar (swipe down from top and the buttons to on/off items will appear)?

I mean I wish to see what are the defaults, is there a list somewhere?

I am using Samsung Galaxy S4.

For example defaults:

My device>Display>Auto-rotate screen is ticked.

My device>LED indicator>Charging is ticked.

Pull down bar (swipe down from top), Sync is selected.

The problem is a kid played with my phone for a few hours, and I did not know what settings he changed. I am not sure what are the defaults too, some settings might have been turn off/on by him.

Hi,

anyone have an estimate of how long until some custom roms are posted here on the forums for the Tmobile Note 4?

I am specifically hoping for the ability to swap external and internal storage (Just preordered my SAndisk 512 GB Sd card ) (use via and adapter tucked inside a mugen power battery case)

Kinda just waiting to make the switch from my galaxy S4 to the note 4 until some decent Roms with custom kernels are out there.

Well I believe this will only support 128gb.

NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trev186:
actually false it supports my 256 GB card already. The numbers on the boxes are just marketing materials. it will accept anything in the SDXC family which will one day reach 2 TBs.

Now a standard SD card does not fit but via the use of an adapter i can attach a 256 GB card currently and will soon do my 512 GB card.

Adding an extended battery case like mugen power actually gives enough room to fit the extended battery, sd card and adapter.

Couple this with a great custom rom with init.d support and a few extra tweaks in the kernel and I have 512 GBs of usable space for whatever I want without the hassle of moving between internal and external.

Is there any loss in Note 4 functionality if one switches away from Touchwiz? I would really like to start using Google Now Launcher, but would any of the S Pen / Samsung's functionality be compromised?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] icexshinigami:
No loss spen/samsung functions on top of the launcher. Switch away.

Using apex launcher here and everything is just fine. Just can't use some specific touchwiz widgets
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Intellectua1:
I normally download Nova when I first get any phone but for some reason this time I don't wanna switch from Touchwiz. I tried Nova and I'm tired of my phone looking the same with every phone I get and DL Nova on
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] joshklee:
trant01 is right. The S Pen will work just fine and have total functionality. The only thing you'll really lose are a few widgets signed directly to Touchwiz UI. Change away!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] rcracer_tx:
I have tried Nova, Go Launcher, Apex, and Next Launcher and they all keep almost all the functionality. So much better than Touchwiz UI... Once you switch you will not be disappointed regardless of which one you choose. :good:

I really really didn't want to use a launcher on this phone, but I could not tolerate the horrible 4x4 grid any longer. Nova launcher works awesome on this phone.

Is there any way to maintain most of your icon layout when switching between launchers
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Jennygirl:
I was so happy when I learned about Google Now Launcher here, so I'm reposting it for those that want a more stock experience. Check out Google Now Launcher. It's the bees knees!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] icexshinigami:
Some Launchers allow you to import your other Launchers home screen layouts. Though not always perfect it is sometimes better than nothing or completely useless that is for you to decide.

Also your previous launcher layouts will remain intact unless you uninstall it so there is no harm in installing Launchers to try them out.

I'm coming from an iPhone 5s so these two look great:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epic.launcher.mi

I will also try out the Google Now launcher. I will play around with Touchwiz first before I decide.

I will probably end up going with Zero Launcher if it allows me to keep the ability to slide Flipboard out from the left. I don't think it will though. Does anyone know if that Flipboard feature is only exclusive to TouchWiz?

Hi all,

As per subject...

Anyone know if such as cable is available?

I was planning on getting the new 3-1 Adaptor for the TYTN to make use of the 3.5mm jack and charging feature in my car.

The thing is, the cable for this adaptor is very short and cannot be hidden easily when in the car. So, I was thinking of using an extension cable of some sort, so the adaptor could be more easily hidden elsewhere under the centre console.

Many thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Acuum2:
USB Stupidity

Hi,

Affraid i didn't find anything either, and wanted to do the same thing.

I resorted to buying the cable from expansis and "Adapting it my self"

The project was fairly simple, and if your happy with a soldering iron and a multimeter you should be fine.

I now have a small connector on my dash that will disapears under the dashboard to a breakout box. All i basicly did was chop off the box that has the two female connectors in it, extend the wire with an old cut up parralel printer cable (multicore and was lying arround) and then terminated in a project box from maplins.

This has two headphone sockets, (audio out stero, and mic in) as well as a USB socket to charge the phone. (the plan was to have the USB socket be usable for data... but that bit went a bit wrong...

Still from the testing i have done, i now have tomtom and WindowsMedia mp3 play back comming through my car stero, and my VarioII reports to be charging. Havn't had a chance to test it on a long drive yet, i think i might still need a beefier 12Volt to USB adapter.

If anyone want more info on what i did, i'd be glad to help.

here are some pics, sorry v bad Q....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] sh500:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] sh500:
Seems good to me- as long as it all works ok then its a good job.

Always been interesting in making my own adapters/cables but have never tried. Perhaps I should give it a go!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Frans.:
Any news on that extension cable yet; is it available?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Acuum2:
i brought one of these and successfully lengthened it with an old peice of printer cable (only multi core cable i had to hand)

i then used an off the shelf diy project box to hide the junction in.

worked very well, but i have since changed to a bluetooth car kit.

the soldering was a little small and working out which wire was which was a bit of a pain, but all in all only took an hour or so to sort out. probably worth it.

(AFAIK my dad is still using the one i adapted.)

[Motorola Droid 3] DmaxGuy:
Hello all,

A friend gave me his Droid 3 which was successfully rooted (Superuser version 3.13 is installed). When I look at the log I can see many past "Allowed" entries. However, I attempted to install Safestrap (version 3.05), and it was denied Superuser access (can see the denial in the log). I then attempted to grant other apps Superuser permissions and I get a "[App Name] has been denied Superuser permissions" message (and it shows "Denied" in the Superuser Log).

The really odd things are that (1) it doesn't prompt to allow or deny (despite the setting saying to prompt), and (2) if I select Superuser funcitons within the Superuser App, it will allow them. For example, if I select "temp unroot", it says "Superuser has been granted Superuser permissions".

I know I can SBF the phone and start over, but there are lots of paid Apps on the phone and I just assume try to work on getting Superuser working again if it's possible.

Please help!
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
Try setting to always allow
[Motorola Droid 3] DmaxGuy:
Solved! Ok, with the device connected to my computer and playing around in adb, I noticed that the permissions for the SU binary were all goofed up. So I issued the command: adb shell "chmod 6755 /system/bin/su" and that solved the problem. Hope this helps someone else.
[Motorola Droid 3] DmaxGuy:
Shadow: Thank you sir for your reply. I should have mentioned in my original that I did try "always allow" in addition to prompting and it didn't make a difference. However, I solved it by changing the su binary's permissions (see above). Thanks again for takinig the time to reply.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] UPSGuy:
I can't believe how incredible the battery life is on my Sprint Note 4. To give you a real world example of what I'm talking about...I'm a ups guy and stream Sirius over my phone to my wireless boombox all day while I'm delivering. My previous android phone on a full charge would get me to about 1PM before needing to charge the phone from this streaming.

With my Note 4 today I started streaming sirius at about 8:30am this morning and streamed it non stop all day for 10 hours. While streaming I also browsed the internet on lunch for about 40 minutes of screen on time for that. I then made about 40 minutes of phone calls after work on the way home. After all of that...I still have 60% battery life left without any charging today.

Man I love this phone!

tried ultra battery saver mode for the first few days and made it from 100% to 25% in 2 days and 4 hours with ultra on and off. then played a game for about 7 hours and it drained my battery 50%. Damn impressive

If you have battery issues, make sure you are not syncing to drop box or google photo back up all times. For example, I use photos to back up all my photos but in the settings I have it only back up when plugged in to the charger. Hopefully this might help someone.

Nothing special installed for battery life and not using the power saving modes. I keep the screen set to auto brightness when at work, but put it on max brightness at home on the weekends when I know I have chargers available because I love the nice bright display. Yes, I have Sprint which has the Snapdragon 805.

I turn off GPS & Wifi when I'm working for battery saving & privacy purposes, but leave bluetooth on all day. I don't have my microsoft email auto synced, but have gmail pushed.
