Just want to summerize the situation for existing 1.09 owner of X01HT, the current state of the unlocking process is follows:

1) Unlock 1.09 can ONLY be done by imei-check (GBP $20)

2) After unlocked, your device will be SUPER-CID

3) Then it can be flashed BL MFG 1.01 in order to upgrade BL to 1.09 for

upgrading the radio rom (currently only radio ver. 1.27 can be flashed)

OR if you dun need the phone function, just want to use PDA instead BUT want to use your desire language rom (Chinese, French etc.....)

1) You need this software "DownGrade_SPL.rar" to downgrade your BL to

1.04 in order for you to be able to flash other language OS.

2) "DownGrade_SPL.rar" can be found on the search engine like google or

china search engine like baidu.com.......

Hope this help

Thank you mj13,this helps.I wonder if there is a future plan for free unlocker.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
It's a bit better than this.

With SuperCID & 1.01MFG BL you can easily go to 1.04 BL. Instructions on this are in the Wiki and the 1.04BL itself is included in the 1.01MFG bl download.

The bootleg 1.04bl downgrade solution is no longer required! :)

or... If you're more technically inclined you can flash using 1.01MFG bootloader...

you can extract os.nb from the rom of your choice using pof's nbhextract tool then just flash it directly using the "lnb" command in the 1.01MFG bootloader. Instead of 30 minutes, this will take < 5 minutes.

While you're at it, change your splash screens too :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wiccawaiwai:
May I ask one thing? If I already in 1.04. Could I use the unlock from IMEI directly?? Furthermore, I can' input chinese. Are your PPC OK?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] junulrik:
Is after # 2 enough to unlock the X01HT Post December release?

Please clarify if after # 2, the X01HT is unlocked already. I just confuse why to do the flashing. Many thanks in advance.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mj13:
Of course can be unlocked, is it flashed to chinese OS already?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mj13:
#2 is unlocking the phone, but if you need to upgrade the radio version, it is better to do the #3 process as MFG 1.01 let you just upgrade the BL itself instead of FULL ROM upgrade. Of course, if you are satisfy with your current radio version, #2 will be just fine.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wiccawaiwai:
I already flash to chinese ROM (DOPOD)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mj13:
You mean there is no option for chinese input like handwriting?

thanks mj13

thanks mj13..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wiccawaiwai:
I have the chinese input. But no chinese word out.

But it is OK now (After I reset the PPC) Thanks all of your help.

Wish me good luck. I will do the unlock this Friday.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] NeoSlasher:
Hiya,

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S3 locked to Bell, and I have installed Cyanogenmod 11.

I'd like to unlock it and give it to a friend.

My questions are:

1. If I unlock this phone, will it work with Zoomer Mobile? It's a subsidiary of Rogers. I would imagine it would work, I just want to make sure.

2. I've read somewhere that Cyanogenmod causes problems with unlocking, is that true? Will I have to go back to stock firmware in order to unlock it, then go back to CM11?

3. I can't seem to find any information about unlocking through Cyanogenmod... anyone have a link to a guide of some sort?

Thanks in advance for any help!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrrocketdog:
am pretty sure you have to be on stock firmware to use free unlock method. will try to search around with for more info

Tell us the bootloader version on your phone.

Once unlocked, it will run on all carriers except wind and mobilicity.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] NeoSlasher:
Thanks, thats great to know! My bootloader version is I747MVLUEMK5.

Thanks for all the links mrrocketdog, looks like everything I need to start unlocking!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Since you are on the MK5 bootloader, you will have to flash back to stock, purchase an unlock code, unlock the phone, and flash back to your custom ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] NeoSlasher:
Which version of stock, though? I can't remember what the phone came with since it was so long ago... I think it was something like 4.1 , but I'm not sure. Since I've since updated to 4.3/4.4, I'm also worried about bricking my device, because I've heard that flashing earlier roms with newer bootloaders can do that.

Which version of stock should I go with then? Thanks in advance!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Confirm that you have an i747m with mk5 bootloader and baseband. This can be done by using the Play app called Samsung Phone Info.

The stock i747m firmware is available on sammobile.com. Just search for the Bell sgh-i747m 4.3 ROM. You can flash it using Odin. Do NOT check anything except auto reboot and F.reset time. I recommend using Odin 3.07 and backing up your important data to your computer as flashing with Odin will wipe your phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DylanDevalera:
Hey everyone,

I'm brand new at this, so please forgive me. Yesterday I followed directions to root after a security update at http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/how-to-root-i545vrufng6-t2905848 and, with only a few bumps, managed to get my device rooted and back up to speed on vrufng6. After having some trouble getting my build to go into permissive mode, I managed to get a safestrap partition installed and a backup put in place - things seemed to be running fine and dandy.

This morning I tried to install an unsupported version of cyanogenmod (I blame their site, they said that the verizon build had been included in an all-in-one version) and found that it was non-functional. No troubles though, I had a backup! Right? Wrong. As far as I can tell I accidentally saved the backup to the externalSD card and managed to do something to make it inaccessible -- safestrap says it can't load and finds no system information. Odin (which I used heavily in the initial downgrade-upgrade shuffle to reinstate root access) won't load the full recovery image provided in the original thread or any of the stock roms out on the internet.

So I've been trying to use the push update feature found in recovery mode (using adb, running windows 8.1 command prompt) and once it uploads I get an error message on the phone, and am back where I started from. I should mention that it doesn't seem like we S IV users have a fastboot option.

Is there a way to fix this? I can **sometimes** get into safestrap, but most times my options are download mode and recovery mode (letting it try to boot normally just hangs the device at Galaxy S 4 screen for awhile before a reboot.) When I do get through safestrap I can find my recovery image, but it won't mount, and the restart option warns me that I have no OS installed.

Again, I'm sorry if I'm not offering enough information. If anyone knows how to get this thing back to stock I would really appreciate a point in the right direction.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] backsidesmack:
Can't you just use Kies to flash the stock firmware? That's what I did when I wound up with a non working os. I coudn't even load the os. Try Kies first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DylanDevalera:
backsidesmack -- Thanks for the response. I did try Kies, but might not have given it a fair shake. It won't find my device by its own volition, and when I enter the (correct) model and serial numbers for an emergency recovery it won't accept the input. I've tried each of the options under the tool menu, but it can't find my phone. Is there some secret to getting it to cooperate?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DylanDevalera:
going back to Kies, emergency firmware recovery won't show any options. How do you generate a recovery code?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ErisDev:
Quick question. Which version of SafeStrap did you download and install?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DylanDevalera:
3.75, which I believe added a button that would attempt to set enforcing mode to passive (instead of using terminal emulator for the same purpose).

I don't think it was any fault of its own - the latest verizon update removed the exploit that towelroot uses and also seemed to do something to disable setenforce 0, so I had to downgrade the firmware using the method posted above to get it to work. The safestrap boot also seemed to work fine, and claimed to successfully restore the backup I had made when I tested it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] liljoe727:
You can only flash Cynanogenmod or any pure AOSP rom if you are on MDK, which you are not. Being on NG6, your only options for rom's are going to be Touchwiz based as we can't flash any kind of kernal. Having said that, you're only option now is going to be the NC5 full wipe Odin tar that is in the thread found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2735172. It seems as if you've had problems flashing in Odin, I just returned my phone to NC5 stock this past weekend using the full wipe files found in the link so your issue, assuming you got good downloads, is either hardware (USB cable, port on p.c., port on phone) or you should try a different version of Odin. I used 3.10 and always have and it has always worked like a charm.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tromatic:
Why would you not save the backup to your external SD card?

ETA: Were you using Kies for Windows or Mac?

Seems to be some extra work needs to be done to use a VM:

Samsung Rooting with Odin / VirtualBox / OSX Lion

Using Odin in Mac OSX with Windows as VirtualBox's Guest OS

Hope you don't have a brick.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DylanDevalera:
Yeah, the external backup comment was dumb on my part, I was misinterpreting safestrap's recovery methods. I think the trouble came from using an older version that ng6 was outsmarting.

Thanks for all the info on extra VM work. It did end up working without any extra help: turned out it was just an outdated version of odin, so the VM was functioning fine. It's always the most trivial things. I'm using parallels desktop FWIW. Kies was by way of mac.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DylanDevalera:
HOLY CRAP THANK YOU!! I was running 3.09, odin 3.10 fixed it on the first try. You.. If I could buy you a beer or something.. Thanks, really. to a layman it's always the most trivial little details.

Probably won't be able to get much functionality (i.e., it won't work!) until LG updates the hardware drivers.
[T-Mobile LG G3] LeoRex:
Yeah.... I just mentioned this in another thread.... Any custom LP ROM that gets shared will be a hybrid.... Android LP built on top of LG's KK stuff (kernel, modems and drivers).

Not saying that it can't be done, but I would expect some issues... My only seat time with a ROM like that was running Kitkat builds for my Galaxy S3 back when KK was first released. If I went a day with only a couple of reboots, I was lucky (every time it switched from WiFi to mobile it would panic boot, for instance). And that was just a 'minor' upgrade (4.3 to 4.4).....
[T-Mobile LG G3] DrDexterMorgan:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] easyrider77:
I've searched but since I really am horrible at searches I probably overlooked or missed some posts that may be concerning this already.....for that I appologize.

The short of it I have a rom that has 3minit baked into the rom, and I would like to remove it and just use the stock battery. That's all I want to do, I don't want to mod any part of the rom except for that part.

Further explination:

Phone is a sprint S4 sph-l720T.

The easier stuff is the better for me, so if we can keep this on lamens terms it'd be useful for me, so what I'm after is...

I am rooted, and have a TW rom, but I want to make it my own so ta speak and I won't be releasing this to anyone.....even then I will contact the original maker of the rom and get permission to do so and give credit where it is do...to the rom maker.

So I have deleted said apps in system/app and system/priv-app, all but what's stock. One thing though I cannot seem to get rid of is 3minit battery app. There is a 3minit settings apk and a 3minit updated apk.

I would like to get rid of 3minit because I really don't use any battery modding at all, I'm fine with stock. I have tried removing it from the system/priv-app folder but since it's baked in and the stock battery is not there (I'm guessing) I get a I think it was a systemui fc loop and the rom is unusable then. If I leave the 3minit apps in the rom works fine.

So, is there a way around this, perhaps files I need to edit and perhaps image files I need to grab and put in said folders?

Keep in mind I'm rather new to some of this stuff, although I have edited the quick panel icons of another rom I had once, but that's been so long ago I probably forgot some stuff.

I don't want to edit the entire rom, just this part, the rest of the rom is fine and working, I would just like to remove the 3minit mod stuff and use a stock battery icon.

Any help, and most of all patience would be grateful.

Apart from Nexus(es) and Google Editions, no phones have a device tree specific for lollipop.

But, considering I came from a device which sources never got released (Galaxy S Advance) and devs was still able to build (not to port, to build) up to 4.4.4, that shouldn't be a problem :)

All that developers really have to do to port it to the OPO is to get the patches used in CM for the OPO and apply them to Lollipop. There may be some problems that will occur during the application of the patches, but that all can be fixed.

I'll be excited to see a port and to use it dual booting until OnePlus releases the firmware for the One.
[ONE General] alex1301:
I think we will get 5.0 this month, but not the CM version. I can remember that Oneplus posted a AOSP version for the One by themselves. So why shouldn't they publish a AOSP version of Lollipop?

They may do that. But we will more likely get an unofficial build much sooner than official AOSP/CM12S.

CM12 Nightlis will also come long time before CM12S
[ONE General] hyuratzu:
Because their official ROM is CyanogenMod. If they will release an official AOSP 5.0 a lot of people will stop using CM11s and that would create a legal issue.
