A small correction:

(To get adb/fastboot, most Linux distros have them packaged outside the android-sdk - android-sdk is mostly used by app devs. Most people will only use adb or fastboot, thus have no need for the sdk, which brings heavy java deps)

[MENTION=5595920]Conixcit[/MENTION] , http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/#root - easy enough.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awsumatt:
At least for Ubuntu based distros you can

1. Install adb and fastboot by going the terminal and entering:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phablet-team/tools && sudo apt-get update

(Edit: that :p is supposed to be a colon followed by a p)

sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

2. Enable debugging in developer options

3. Type in the terminal:

sudo adb start-server

adb reboot-bootloader

fastboot oem unlock

4. Download the latest version of twrp and the supersu.zip for the nexus 5 (hammerhead)

5. Rename the twrp file "recovery.img" and move it into your home folder

6. Type into the terminal:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

7. Let it do its thing and then turn it on. Drag your supersu.zip into a folder on your phone (somewhere where you find it)

8. Type into the terminal:

adb reboot-bootloader

9. Use the volume buttons to scroll down to recovery then short press the power button. Once booted into recovery, choose install, find SuperSU and swipe to install

9. Power on the phone and go into SuperSU and check if the binaries need to be updated and if they do say yes and when it asks you to reboot, do so.

Hope that helps :)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conixcit:
Here is the question, will I lose my data after step 6 ?

Second ;

Can I install SuperSU. zip directly command line without twrp. I don't like recovery things.

My meaning is ; can I install the SuperSU.zip with "fastboot flash recovery SuperSU. Zip " or something like that. I've installed Android L manually, so first 5 step is already done.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
"fastboot oem unlock" is what wipes the /data partition. Flashing a recovery only replaces the recovery.

You can't flash a zip in fastboot, and sideloading the zip probably won't work if you're on the stock recovery. It's best to flash a custom recovery anyways since it lets you do backups (important if you have root access) and flash other things that you may want to.

[YOUTUBE][/YOUTUBE]

Well we have a problem here: I wanna root my phone but as you say I need to install custom recovery first. But as you said again I need rooted phone.

So : how I'm gonna do that ?

As I said before ' I've already did "fast OEM unlock" step.

So my question is :

will I lose any data while installing custom recovery via adb (terminal)

I'm saying that again : fast OEM thing is already done.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Huh?

- You need an unlocked bootloader to flash a custom recovery (which you do, fastboot oem unlock)

- You need a custom recovery to flash SuperSU for root access

I already answered your question in my previous post. Again: fastboot oem unlock is what wipes the /data partition, flashing a recovery using fastboot does not.

I rooted my phone on 5.0.1 without problems. Maybe try a different version of CF-Autoroot or do it on a computer running Windows.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Except you need root access to use that in the first place.

His bootloader is already unlocked.

That app is for those that already have root access, but want to relock and unlock the bootloader from within Android for possible security reasons.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 31ken31:
I used two apps to unlock and flash recovery. I'm trying to remember what the other was. My kid broke my laptop and I unlocked n rooted without a PC.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Towelroot was used to gain root access via a kernel exploit. It has long since been patched and is now irrelevant. The only methods now require you unlock the bootloader.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beekay201:
Damn it, Elluel already told the OP what he needs to do.

Everybody else stop. You're causing more confusion by saying **** like "towelroot" or "cf auto root".

There's nothing simpler than flashing a custom recovery, and then the supersu flashable zip.

If OP needs to help to learn how to push a file to the device... that's has been answered in other threads a thousand times in this forum.

Is there a solution for having a different VPN or proxy for different app? For example app 1 would use British proxy or VPN and app 2 would use German?
[Networking] ElwOOd_CbGp:
I was using the xposed module "per app hacking" for a while, but it seems like the proxy isnt working asnymore.
[Networking] Damstas:
Thanks for the reply. Yeah that could have worked. Could there be any other solutions to this, since normally if you set proxy or VPN you will set to whole device. Can't access my local Web streaming content if I change it to British etc.
[Networking] ElwOOd_CbGp:
As far as I know, that's the only solution for what you are seeking. Another option might be to find a proxy app that supports an on the fly on/off widget. I've looked around before too, for a bit, I don't think there is a lot of development for this type of thing because android software is so heavily dependent on ad revenue. Not only that, I think using a proxy renders ad blockers useless. I think its built into android to make this a difficult thing. good luck
[Networking] ElwOOd_CbGp:
hey bro, it just occurred to me that you might be able to use the Orbot app for that
[Networking] draplater:
some proxy software can set what apps use vpn and others not use vpn.

I found this app Drony - Google Play

It needs no root and seems to work fine.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I rooted My phone, OPO, on CM11S, installed TWRP, flashed SuperSU,, and unchecked CM recovery. Everything seemed working fine. Yesterday I installed the just released OTA, I lost root access. I then re-flashed it with SuperSU, gained root access again. However, I am having problems with fastboot. Problem 1, phone won't boot into fastboot mode when I pressed both power and volumn up buttons. Problem 2, adb command "reboot bootloade" will only reboot the phone and fails to put it into fastboot mode. Problem 3, The only ways I can boot the phone into fastboot mode are either via the option in the power menu or via TWRP. Either way, even the phone showed it was in the fastboot mode, it still refused to take the fastboot command. The system responded with "no permission fastboot" instead. How can it be fixed or restored? Thanks for help in advance.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killachandra:
Hi guys, I rooted my S4 i9500 a month back using CF auto root and was on stock firmware, it was running fine. Then a week back I installed wanam xposed and made some changes in the setting to change phone features. It was working ok too.but then i didnt like it and uninstalled both wanam and xposed framework without undoing the changes i had made. today suddenly the phone shutdown and got stuck in boot loop. i cant access recovery mode or download mode nor safe mode. i pulled battery tried after a while but still nothing. any tips or idea on how to recover. thanks in advance. i tried to search Google and xda forums but couldn't find a solution.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xDroidZz:
wow!

This is something really bad! Even download mode? you sure you press the right buttons?

what did you actually changed in wanam xposed? as far as i know wanam is more on, on theming and not tweaking.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killachandra:
I am pressing the right buttons volume down+ home+power, it shows the the download mode but before i can press volume up to enter it it reboots.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Interface23:
And what about download mode? Also keep rebooting? Are you pressing right combo

press home+volup+ power, when the logo appears release power button and keep pressed the other buttons and voila.

Once in recovery, flash Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip. When the first time install Xposed it creates a file in your sdcard folder called Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip. All you need to do is boot into recovery and flash the disabler file so Xposed will disabled and your device will be working again. Once disabled you can remove the Xposed module that cause trouble.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killachandra:
My dear friends i am pressing the right combo and as i said, i cant access download mode or the stock recovery. I gave the phone to samsung service and those idiots are giving all kinds of explanations saying power switch may be faulty or charging pin is faulty. i am irritated, they just want to raise my bill by changing all parts.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Interface23:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NonXtreme:
Maybe a stuck power button. It's a common s4 problem. You can try knocking the phone near the power button.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
You have a stuck/faulty power button. It just happens so nothing you did that caused this. Try to get it loose or replace it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killachandra:
Thanks you guys. You are quite brilliant. It was the power button. Unfortunately i didn't read this before so couldn't try figiting with it. and took it to Samsung service and they replaced the power button from 6$. Working fine now. quote relieved i must say. Thanks all

Hi All,

I am looking for an answer or a possible solution for "Why Themes are no longer working in Android L"

Details >> I've tried 2-3 Roms (Touchwiz Android L versions (leaked and official both)), There is an option for Themes and in that only 2 themes are present by default.(Basic and Natural). Now no matter what i do i can't seem to get the custom themes to work. I've tried simple installing, Going to root and adding them there and changing proper permissions or simply flashing "Launcherthemes.zip" that contains all the custom themes. But after all that is done and i reboot my phone and then go "Themes" Section, only default themes that were present at the time of the flashing of the rom is present.

Any help guys? Am i missing something ?

Thanks:)

Hey, I've spent some substantial time outside of the windows mobile world. Started using a Nokia E61..great device just kinda slow. And I messed the blackberry pearl and then kept the Blackberry 8800 for a long while. Just recently I purchased a Dash for the 3rd time and I'd have to say this is the most stable and fun experience I've had thus far. My major gripe is navigation through the OS via the DPAD. So I've decided to get a blackjack/i600...OR Return to the super powerful beast the TyTN/8525/Hermes. I'm trying to see if I really need all those features in comparison to the Blackjack. Copying and pasting natively within a web page is something I miss. Heck, being able to literally copy and paste any piece of text no matter where you are - i miss. Back when I owned the TytN previously I had 2 gripes. The Core Player/tcpmp issue with ATI. (I see there's a patch now :) ). And I would randomly not be able to connect to the internet at times because it would come up with a "answering modem has disconnected" and keep doing that till I soft reset. I believe that was a radio rom issue to be quite honest. I've gotten used to the one handed use and exposed keyboards. Do I really want to return to this world? I tweaked my MDA & TytN to the best capability a few months ago. Ahhh the good ol Molski Faria days! :). The keyboard on the TyTN is perfect btw. Never a miss type. And usually if I had to emergency respond to a text at a stoplight, I'd be able to do it so fast that it would defeat any purpose of randomly trying to type one handed. I dunno. Any feedback would be appreciated as I'm purchasing something today :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mzkaramel:
i used the 8125 then upgraded to 8525, i tried the blackjack for 2 days and hated it, even thru it has 3g its slow and the applications take so long to open\load, 8525 is so much faster and user friendly and yes u will need the apps even thru u think u wont, also the functions, call quality are so much better, i also tried the pearl and did not like it b\c of the blakcberry connect and time it takes to connect to web, go with the tytn u will not be disappointed, blackjack has nothing on it, u cant tweak it out like u can a tytn, u choose slow web whn u can get lightening web

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] rjefferis:
woah there. If you dont need a touchscreen on it i would say get a blackjack. I have a samsung i320 and it is great. I have a hermes too though and that is also great but if i dont need all the functionality of the hermes. ie. the bigger screen then i always take the samsung. I cant wait for the i600 to come out on orange. In fact, im going to ring them right now.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] christopherwoods:
Simple answer: the Hermes will depreciate in value less quickly, so it's a better investment. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] dialekt:
Yes I need someone to hold my hand. Hence, me participating in a glorious forum such as this one. I seek knowledge from your experience. I'm still sitting here torn because part of me says just get a i600 and leave the rest to a laptop/psp for multimedia purposes. Same can be said about keeping the Dash since I already do own it. But one thing I am noticing and disliking a lot with smartphones is that they cannot keep up with my typing. I've tried about 6 of them. 2 blackjacks and 4 dash's . I'll admit the dash is better but still, when i type fast I ALWAYS have to backspace for mistypes. :(. TyTN never had this problem. the i600 could have fixed this. too bad there aren't many owners. I have an offer locally for a 8525 for 400.00 and im close to pulling the trigger..but I'm rationalizing things out. Needs/Wants/etc
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] JamesAub:
GO on, push the button and order the Tytn, you know you want to :P

Its the best device of its kind ive used and ive been looking for something like it for many years. I had intended to keep my nokia 6230 charged and use it when i just wanted a phone if i was going to the pub or something, but i just cant go back to a lesser device now. Besides, having google on my tytn is just too handy for pub quizzes :D

Its a very fast and stable beast these days with the new batch of WM6 roms and radio upgrades. I have very few problems with my setup below, and mine is pretty well loaded with apps too!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] todd_jg:
Well, for what it is worth, you chose to post this in a forum that is 100% dedicated to Hermes. Therefore, you are getting the expected response - almost universal recommendations to get the Hermes. Now, assuming you are not insane or stupid (as I am sure you are not) then clearly you expected this result. Thus, one can assume that you WANTED to be urged toward the Hermes. This can only mean that you want the Hermes and have from the beginning. GET THE HERMES!

I replaced my TYTN with a Samsung I600. I would be curious to know how many of the people who replied ever tested BOTH device....

I still own both...

While I don't discuss the pda feature of the tytn I have to say it was the worst phone I've ever had.

The I600 is just a little bit slower in apps using, navigation speed also is comparable. On the other hand is far much more stable.

Signal receiption and voice quality is far much better.
