CASUAL failure after brick/recover

Verizon Galaxy Note 2, Andriod 4.1.1. Windows 8.1 x64, Java 7 update 60 both x86 and x64.

I tested Webroot security on my phone as part of evaluating it for work. It insisted on setting a password. I hate passwords on my phone. So I tried a bunch of stuff to get around it and wound up with "Verizon has detected evil software, you naughty boy!" I recovered it with Odin and sch-i605-16gb.pit and a stock image I downloaded.

Now I want to root it so I can restore my stuff with Titanium I downloaded CASUAL and got the attached (the forum won't let me put it in themessage, thinks it has links).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattnmag:
"[ERROR]CASUAL experienced an error while parsing command: push "$ZIPFILEexynos-abuse" /data/local/tmp/

please report the above exception."

This last part of the log shows that the root exploit is not able to get pushed.... so it looks like you probably have an antivirus or firewall program that's stopping the exploit from being able to do its thing. I found that I had to temporarily disable my main antivirus program and Windows Defender to get Casual to successfully complete the process.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JonFleming:
Ah, that did it. Thank you.

Hello, I just unlocked my bootloader. I have the same case as mentioned in here : http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/help/boot-unlocking-bootloader-t2440526

However, just the difference is that, I am running Ubuntu 14.04 instead of windows as mentioned in the above thread. Fastboot is now not recognizing the device after bootloader unlock. Do I need to install any drivers? And if yes, how can I install them on Ubuntu? Any detailed steps will be helpful as I am quite new to flashing. Thanks :) :)

I am using a Nexus 5 on stock 4.4.2, rooted. Play Store is installing version 1.6.1 of Disable Service. Please let me know any other information I need to provide.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vegas217:
Maybe try downloading SELinuxModeChanger and set SE linux to PERMISSIVE. That fixed a lot of my apps, mostly apps that require root access such as Viper4Android and all my battery stats apps.

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Guys, I'm going to be launching a wireless charging phone sleeve on Kickstarter in January. The unique selling point will be the Smart app that communicates with the sleeve.

I'm doing research for the launch now to determine which phones to support. If you guys could just share your thoughts that'd be great.

Namely:

Will you as a Samsung Galaxy s5 user invest in a new phone sleeve

Why do you/ dont you use existing portable chargers like powerbanks and Qi chargers

If you know any cool portable wireless chargers

I myself use a Nexus 4 with Qi built in but I haven't found a satisfactory wireless charging solution yet... that's kinda why I worked on my own. Thanks!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ricerocket00:
Looks very interesting. I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ramer:
Like it, but will it work with the phone in a case?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Thanks guys! So i take it you will be theoretically willing to get a phone sleeve for the s5? Yes it will work with your existing cases because i'm choosing stretchable materials for ampere, except maybe otterboxes, and the case also has to work with Qi wireless charging. I think lots of cases will espc since we're using a bigger coil.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
I use wireless charging and I own power banks. Powerbanks are mostly annoying because of keeping up with cords. But it would be nice to have a small flip put Micro USB and USB for charging and discharging to devices that don't have wireless charging (like my fiancees phone) . Also, I haven't bought a current qi bank because of the fact I can't throw my phone in my pocket and just let it charge. Your solution, depending on the price and size, seems to take care of those concerns for me. I would definitely consider buying it.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
YES that problem with portable Qi chargers is exactly what happened to me. I ended up bringing along a wire anyway so my phone could charge in the bag. Thanks for reminding me about that and for the support.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] giorgoschr:
Nice idea.. i am already using a Qi but its no so happy so any other alternative will be consider
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Yup, I personally have a Nexus 4 and was super-hyped to try wireless charging, only to find that most Qi products are absolutely rubbish beyond the novelty.

That's why I designed the sleeve to fix a lot of the heat dissipation, durability, looks, portability and alignment issues that plague Qi products. Please do leave your email on the website if you're interested! I'll contact you again just before launch in January.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] xhozt:
make this a +1 for me also im IN .
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] GoBears:
If it will stretch to fit the Commuter Wallet, I'd think about dropping coin on it if the price is reasonable. My QI receiver works through the wallet case so that shouldn't be a problem. I personally find it much easier to carry a spare fully charged battery or two when the situation calls for it.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Actually, I wouldn't recommend you use wireless charging with wallets at that kind of proximity. It might interfere with your credit cards' magnetic strips.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] GoBears:
Been using wireless through my wallet case for about 3 months. No issues yet (knock on wood)!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Ok good for that info! I've been using it too, and would say the same. Still, recommended not to slide your credit cards through ampere.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Guys, thanks for the product validation thus far. Now, I need your feedback on the optional app. Here are the proposed features:

I'm doing research for the launch now to determine what features to incorporate in this app:

Display estimated battery life in hrs of phone and ampere

Control when charging starts

find your phone or ampere when one is missing

notifications to recharge at time or location

What other features would you like to see? I've recently posted in the S5 and Nexus 5 forums too, and I've been told not to dilute the product, which I agree with heartily. These are the features I've narrowed it down to. What other things do you think we need to bake in? It will probably be open to developers post-Kickstarter.

Feel free to check the product out over at http://kickstarter.novelsys.co.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Hey guys! Just wanted to update everybody that we've got a teaser video now

[YOUTUBE]zzs5qSiFCy0[/YOUTUBE]

;) let me know what you think before we launch on Kickstarter :confused:
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
I like it. I'll probably get one when you release it. I like the locator function as well. Does it have a wireless charging receiver also? (for charging the unit that is.)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] jdagreek:
I just went to amazon and bought the fonesalesman receiver and koolpad installed in 10 seconds and it works perfect. And I have one of the thickest phone cases from element case the recon pro.

I also bought a Qi charger for the car ...

After a week of using this I have put koolpad's in two other rooms in the house. It just works slick,

How would your sleeve work would I still be able to use any case I wanted ? This is a must, I must have the freedom to choose what case I want to use ?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
Not any case I'm afraid. It should fit most soft cases and slim hard cases. It's really on a case by case basis. (see where I did there?) by Kickstarter, our testing will be more rigorously completed and I'll be able to say exactly to what thickness case Ampere can tolerate.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
I'm afraid you'll have to charge Ampere via a MicroUSB. There's less benefit to charging Ampere wirelessly than your phone though.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] dropmyload:
So what do I need to fit on my phone to use this wirelessly?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tongrhj:
There's a receiver (that looks like a sticker for your battery) which will fit over your battery within the Galaxy S5 case itself without changing the profile of your phone. This receiver will be provided together with Ampere.

I'll have photos for you soon!

Finally Samsung got it right, there was quite the update this morning and now there is one health app.

[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] trettet:
I got this update quite a while ago...
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] Brice.Dino:
Can you synchronise your steps and activities (or anything!) in this application? I cant!
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] aelaan:
Yes I finally can now use one interface and the syncing works great - I knew something was coming down the pipe as Fitness with Gear disappeared for a bit last week. I actually went into the gym this morning and tested it out, so the phone and the watch track the exercise. With that knowledge I can now leave the phone in the locker or even home so that I can only use the watch and not have to worry about things going missing (which unfortunately happens). For others that got the update sooner, I am in Canada and I had been longing for this update. Check your version number of sHealth and check if it is the same as what I reported.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] SgRddY:
sync issues

Anyone else has problems syncing Gear 2 Neo with the new S Health? My S Health sync is just spinning and spinning away and won't sync anything from my Gear 2 Neo. I've tried to reboot, uninstalled and reinstalled but no luck.

The last sync from the Gear 2 Neo to S Health was 5 days ago and that's when I upgraded S Health.

Thanks,
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] trettet:
Unpair the Gear 2 Neo and repair it again. Last resort is to reset the gear.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeterKing1:
What do people think of the Kindle Fire TV in it's current state running the latest update?

I managed to get one on offer for £49 but even at that price I'm not sure I'd get much use out of it.

I'm not too bothered about Prime streaming (although I have it) - I wanted a powerful Android TV box that could run applications more easily than streaming my phone over Chromecast.

By the looks of things, the fact that rooting has been taken away, running side-loaded .apk apps is very difficult and cumbersome to get to through the menu system.

Before I return it, what do people think?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjbxx:
Reconsider Returning Your Fire TV

Try using the FiredTV Launcher before returning it. This launcher does not require root and will bring all sideloaded apps to the home screen with the ability to have access to the Amazon content as well. It is customizable and is the best alternative launcher for non rooted Fire TV devices. And XBMC/Kodi/SPMC run great on the Fire TV.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retroben:
Didn't the latest firmware add non-rooted access to apk installing from unknown sources?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebr:
Sell your AFTV and get a decent Android Box! The AFTV is crippled and locked down beyond anything. You can only get happy with it if you use Instant Video and their Appstore. Workarounds with XMBC not work reliable: launcher sometimes crashes, Instant Video gives you error if you not closed XMBC properly, no external storage, keyboard layout cannot be changed, standby not works reliable, .... the list is endless. Yeah basically you can watch a movie with XBMC but everything around it is a pain in the a** although the hardware is decent.

Software root is broken for very long already and also people failed to get it rooted by a hardware hack. And in this forum are some very skilled people as I know. I not see any tiny evidence that there is a new root in sight.

Go ahead and sell this useless brick and get a android Box. Make sure to check out freaktab.com before you decide.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retroben:
Whenever a box with Nvidia K1 comes out,get that if it does not cost too much,and hopefully it will have 2GB of RAM.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevie G:
You cannot compare a plug and play android box with limited hardware to a super powered AFTV. Most of the issues has been fixed and being refined.

If you want a ready made box, then be happy with hardware issues.

diff from stock?

edit: nevermind - it appears to be the same as the kitkat fix. (adding media_rw to WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
[Shield Tablet General] SuperPichu:
That's exactly what it is. I just thought it might not be a bad idea to zip it for convenience.
[Shield Tablet General] Chaleman:
another way if already rooted, install Folder Mount (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en) which is very useful in it's own right. When ran for the first time it'll detect that the SD Card is not writeable, it'll offer to fix it. Choose to do so, reboot, and presto!!

does it fix TitaniumBackup backups protection?

Read here, probably the PIE is the reson:

Is it normal?
[Shield Tablet General] Chaleman:
Make sure the external SDCard is formatted in Fat32...

Carlos
[Shield Tablet General] eSbek:
Before I start copying all these GB's that I have o my 128GB card, what about the FAT32 limitations - cards above 32GB cannot be format with windows, but it's still possible with a dedicated software. I wonder if I can use FAT32 in this case
[Shield Tablet General] Chaleman:
The only limitation that I know of is that you can't file a single file more than 4GB in size...

Carlos
[Shield Tablet General] Snah001:
did this (both methods). Both didn't work. So rebooted.

After factory reset all went ok.

2 hours later I was up and running again and now the foldermount app did it's work correctly.

TB can write so problems are solved.
[Shield Tablet General] eSbek:
I formatted the card to FAT32, now can see it in CWM, but still can't protect the backups (although I can write to card by TB like before when I was on exFat).

Is it normal that CWM asks to fix the root on each exit?
[Shield Tablet General] Snah001:
Yes, CWM will do that always.

When you don't choose it it will not loose root.

Manually Edited Permissions

I actually found this thread after I solved things, but....

I have a 64GB Micros-SD formatted FAT32. Ran into the problem that Android won't let apps modify files on an external card. (All I wanted to do was to keep my Moon + Reader library there....lots of books!)

Instead of using an app, I modified the permissions file according to this article: http://technofaq.org/posts/2014/04/fixing-external-sd-card-write-issue-on-android-kitkat/

Rebooted and all is well.

I am one of those people that tends to be very minimalist about the apps/games that I install, but heavy on the data. One reader, but lots of books.

Just wanted to put this out there as an alternative.
[Shield Tablet General] wingdo:
The apps mentioned do not need to remain on the device. The apps (or the routine in folder mount) make the change you linked to automatically. Once run the change is made and you can uninstall.

With the apps you don't have to worry about a typo or other issue.

Hey guys. Little offtopic but maybe the best place to ask

I'm running 2.2 w [MENTION=2672500]SuperPichu[/MENTION] -s 1.7 kernel atm. My card is a 64gig SDXC formatted exfat. Is any way to set apps to install automatically to the SD? So frustrating to move them manually one by one. Other, I don't know why, but somehow I can't move apps bigger than 2gigs. Is it because of the size of the files? Isn't exfat support bigger files?
