[Android General] The_Anomalist:
There's no need to unlock bootloader to get root all it is, is for ur system to boot into recovery and or rom. So we just need some new exploitsor something similar to get root and I don't run 4.4 my zte z936l runs 5.1.1 so it more complicated than 4.4
[Android General] dhplap:
So are you saying that it's possible to install a new rooted rom through stock recovery if one was available?
[Android General] The_Anomalist:
It is possible through a slightly modified boot.IMG but that's a big risk!

Also we need to find a new exploit for this device. A bootloader tells the system to boot into recovery or the ROM itself meaning it don't need to be unlocked to get root on the current ROM running u see what im saying?
[Android General] dhplap:
Well I can tell you know quite a bit more than I do and I really appreciate your help. Not quite understanding the exploit part but if you do make any progress I'd be glad to hear from you again. I'll keep seeing what I can find and let you know if I have any good news. Thanks again. GOOD LUCK!
[Android General] niisan518:
Hay beany23 have you tried the back up of the stock images and throwing them into a virtual machine and try modifying the system from there
[Android General] The_Anomalist:
I could certainly try!
[Android General] niisan518:
Dhplap I have also tried king root and Kongo root. Be weary that you can soft brick your phone and may still have some problems after factory reset. I'm still looking into that ATM.
[Android General] niisan518:
No I haven't yet just temp root and after a factory reset all my apps randomly refresh while I'm using them not sure if this is a soft or a hard problem

Phone at our whim

hey guys we have a zte lever at our disposal. :D im getting a new phone, and would still like to help rooting this phone. so any ideas just throw them at me, and i will look into them, im not afraid of bricking the phone as it already has some issues not sure if they are hardware or software issues this phone has been through a lot.
[Android General] noxiousb4c:
I have temp root and recovery and system img's I can upload them. Got droid explorer to work with adbd insecure which can be found in the playstore or the link in the playstore. You need to root first.

I got temp root with kingroot by turning wifi optimization off and screenlock to 30 minutes.

I'm backing up my phone with titanium backup as we speak so I'll be able fiddle with it but someone needs to get a bootloader on it or unlock the bootloader. That's where you come into play with your spare. Get a bootloader on yours.

It's a great phone I really with we had more people using it. I'm not the most competent user.
[Android General] niisan518:
That would be great if you could upload them. With kingroot have you noticed any of your apps randomly refreshing.
[Android General] dhplap:
Hello, just checking to see if any progress has been made. Thanks
[Android General] niisan518:
i have again gained root using the kingo root computer software this is not permanent. i have tried other attempts of installing supersu with adb to make it a root app with no avail. does anyone know a way to make the system read and write. im going to try to make it a root app with tetmp root to see if this will give us perm root with limited access.

... and i managed to freeze the phone
[Android General] dhplap:
Hi, just checking to see if you've made any progress yet? Thanks!
[Android General] niisan518:
No not yet I will try a few more things this weekend as I have a 3 day weekend. Still trying to figure out how to make system read and write and how to unlock the bootloader.
[Android General] dhplap:
Hows it going niisan? Any luck yet? Thanks
[Android General] niisan518:
No i havent made any progress yet im going to use beanys link and try dumping the rom and the images, i was trying to get noxiousb4c to upload them but i havent heard back from him. Beany have you mnaged at all to get into fastboot mode. i know your running 5.1 dhplap and i are runnning on 4.4 and 4.4.4
[Android General] dhplap:
OK thank you. I'll wait patiently but just want to say good luck. Wish I knew how to do more to help out but I'm still learning.

I sent an email to ZTE support and they told me that they do not support rooting or boot loading your ZTE phone. So is there another option for rooting this phone?
[Android General] greenbeans71:
Still interested

Saw that and wanted to try it, thanks for saving me the trouble. I've gotta z936l running 5.1 and like the others obtained worthless temp root using KingRoot 5.3.2 apk. Currently attempting to get in the bootloader, I've seen posts on several sites saying it's possible but seen nothing definitively. Idk what I doing really I've managed to ruin 3 phones and a tablet in the past 3 months it's a sickness more than a hobby... Hope others are still pursuing their mods, it really is a great phone, fast with a huge screen that pops and now you can pick one up on fb or letgo for 35-45....so come on yall let's do this!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhacksalot:
Hello everyone I have been trying for some time now to get twrp (2.8.7.0) and cm (10.2.1) on my Samsung Verizon galaxy S3 about phone . I really don't want to brick my phone considering I'm trying to upgrade my computer and move at the same time so I have very limited cash. I am rooted via towelroot (confirmed via root checker basic) have SuperSU installed, twrp manager installed, Titanium backup installed, Explorer installed, and Busybox free installed. So I installed Titanium backup first to safely backup all of my data to my external sd card, and when I moved the backup destination folder to the external sd card and tried to backup all user apps titanium told me that there was insufficient space . Considering It has 15Gb free and there is altogether 14Gb on my internal I was curious. So upon further research I stumbled upon this and so when I tried to edit my platform.xml in my permissions folder it said it was set to read only. I noticed that my Explorer app isn't in the supersu list (could this be all it is, and if so how do I add it). So I proceeded to open up TWRP manager and it told me it can't write to sd card so it will reboot and patch the platform.xml file. I did that and it reboots and nothing has changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

UPDATE: after posting this I tried the twrp platform.xml patch again and when the phone rebooted I checked via Explorer and it had created a back up in the permissions folder named platform.xml.bak and had edited the the write permissions. but TiBU still does not work with same error.

Hi all, I'm looking for a smartwatch with few but very important for me attributes but i have some difficulties in finding it so i hope someone on this forum can help me.

I need a smartwatch with these attributes:

1 gsm/wcdma (standalone)

2 waterproof or at least water resistant (ipx7 is enough but better if it is ip57, ip67)

3 Android 4.4 (OS)

4 Bluetooth 4.0 - 4.1

5 Nfc (not vital but if it has it's better)

6 Micro SD slot (not vital but if it has it's better)

At the moment close to these attributes i found only the smartq Z but i would find other smartwatches with these attributes to compare them and choose the best for me. Thanks

While on vacation my wife dropped her nexus 5 into a toilet in a drunkin stooper, All I'm trying to do is retrieve the photos for now, ill worry about trying to get the phone back to operational after I get some vacation pics off of it.. everything I try to do seems to end up not working or another roadblock.. ill just list step by step what happenned..

-phone dropped in water

-i remove the back cover to remove the battery and seen i need tools and its not easily removed so i left the phone in a bowl of rice for the night.. everything appeared dry on the inside and it wouldnt turn on.

-next day it did power on but the touchscreen was unresponsive, removed battery, reinstalled and a screen appeard that said android is starting and optimizinf app ** of**, would keep nearing the end and powering off on its own for hours.. manually powered off and left for another day in rice..

-plugged in and phone would turn on but would not load, the google sign comes on and gets stuck on those four circles just moving around forever..

-hold the volume down and power button to get in the options screen, try powering off and back on, restarting bootloader and etc to no avail. wiped cache and restarted. still same thing.

-when i try recovery it just goes to android with red exclamation mark.

since i got home.....

-when i connect the phone to computer the mtp? driver wouldnt install correctly

-came to this website...

-installed adb, fastboot, and the universal driver. adb doesnt see the device, fastboot does.

im lost, am i missing something?

phone is still under warranty, is it worth sending in to LG?

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
When I switched to CM12 my battery life got worse and my tablet now takes many hours to fully charge. I've had poor battery life before but this charging issue is new. I don't know how to troubleshoot the battery but I'm wondering ROM or bad battery?

EDIT: Also wondering why the screen has such high use. I do have it bright with a 2 min shutoff but I always have. This is a change for the screen to be consuming most of the resources. I have no idea how to compensate other than squinting at a dark screen. Could this be related to the reason it takes so long to charge?

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmontminy:
Does anyone know of a way around the fact the Car Mode now prompts you to select either Android Auto or S Voice each time it starts now, after the recent B0F1 update?

If I choose Android Auto, my Home button becomes useless. It will flash up a screen telling me to start auto in my car and touch the display (I don't have Android Auto in my car). If I install the Android Auto app, it essentially does the same thing.

If I choose S Voice, well, then I'm stuck with that crappy app each time I start Car Mode :(

While Car Mode was always rather limited on the Note 4 (lack of support for home button launching your car app of choice), it was at least useful for keeping the screen on. I use A2DP Volume to start Car Mode when I connect to my in-car BT. Before the update, Car Mode simply put the steering wheel icon in notification, and kept my screen on all the time (if charging). This was perfect.

Now, I have to choose one of 2 useless apps, which breaks my Home button.

In lieu of a fix, does anyone know of a simple, reliable way to keep the screen on? Most of the techniques I've tried in the past were unreliable.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmontminy:
Apparently, the fix is as easy as installing a "car home" app that registers as such...

I had Auto Mate installed, which didn't seem to register as a selection. I installed Car Home Ultra, and when I'm in Car Mode, I get the popup to select either Android Auto, Car Home Ultra, or S Voice.

Now my home button always brings up Car Home Ultra. So, they didn't make it worse, they fixed the broken home button behavior, *if* you have a proper home app installed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lexbian:
Enable developer mode, there is an option in it to keep screen on while charging. Thats what I did.

Go to : Settings > About Phone

then tap "Build Number" until it flashes a toast message telling you Developermode has been enabled.

Then under Settings you will now see Developer Options, go into that menu and check the box for "Stay Awake"

SOLVED.

[Intro]

Hi Guys, long time lurker first time poster. I can usually dig up enough to get myself by or find someone to bother (Thanks for the help with the custom ROM on my Relay Mr.Magamo!) .

Since a post count of 1 is always suspicious, I'm the same Simpler=Better as on peachparts[dotcom] & superturbodiesel[dotcom]-you can hit me up over there if you want to confirm.

[Part that matters]

Samsung S4 i337 through & on ATT, out of the warranty period (of course). One day, any calls I made were silent on my end. Coincidentally, my 32gb Samsung microSD decided to die at what I'm assuming was the same time. The microSD has been removed from the phone (the jack still works, have a new on in there)

Symptoms:

-During traditional call (tried multiple dialers) the local speaker is silent, the recipient of the call hears static or silence. Dialtones from the numberpad menu don't go through in either direction. Tested to my second Tmobile phone, landlines, etc.

-Using a wired headset gives the same results.

-Using a bluetooth headset, everything sounds fine

-Using hangouts, I can do a video call, with full functionality in both handset and speakerphone mode.

Attempts at fixing it (none have worked)

-Disabled 'ok google' as per most other people with this problem

-Tried the Soundabout app to force headset usage

-Put the SIM into my backup iPhone4, everything works fine.

-Replaced the microphone board

-Replaced the headphone jack assembly

-Rooted / safestrap / flashed to "plain" 4.4.2 touchwiz

-Also Hyperdrive R21

-Also GPE 4.4.4_v1.2

-Was originally on the OC3 baseband, tried NB1, NC1, NI1, and NJ4 on the above 3 ROMs.

[The dealio]

Since I'm not super hyped on buying a new phone right now, I'm offing up $50 to anyone who can help me get this thing making calls again. If that's against the rules, I'll donate $50 to a charity of your choice instead. If she's dead and gone, I'll start looking at new phones :(

Thanks for reading the novel above.

tl;dr

I'll give you $50 if you help me fix my S4, I'm not a bot.
[General Topics] Mastiff:
I had an accident with my Atom and need a new phone. I just can't make up my mind if I should wait for the I-Mate Ultimate 7150 (which there's no official street date for yet) or an Atom Life (which I can have here in less than a week). The big pros with the I-Mate is the keyboard and the coolness of something completely new, like the secondary OLED. The Atom, on the other hand, is smaller, I can use most of my old cases and other stuff I bought for the first Atom and it takes Mini SD (why the hell do they make large PDA phones with Micro SD? Stupid!), of which I have a few 4 gig laying around. The downside to the I-Mate is the size, the slower CPU, the unknown with it (how does it really work in real life?) and the unknown price and arrivel time. The downside of the Atom is no QWERTY keyboard and probably battery life, but that doesn't matter much, I have three extra batteries! Which means that I can do a weekend with close to constant music and FM radio use without a charger. Any thoughts?
