Isn't kingroot the Chinese, closed source rooter that XDA generally is wary of? Just askin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vazersecurity:
I believe you are referring to "Kingo Root" which is different from "KING Root"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
both are of Chinese origin. but people on xda seem to like kingroot for whatever reason
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Nergal di Cuthah:
Ah, the names l look alike, I see how I coulda n00bed that lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vazersecurity:
LOL I was about to withdraw my post because I started reading the poor English of the instructions. LOL!

But for the record, it worked! And I was able to replace the Kinguser with SuperSU by following this link.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
there's an app on the play store called Super-Sume (yea its called that, i didnt make it lol)

that does the same thing

but it's just

an app rather than having to use terminal emulator and stuff
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vazersecurity:
Ahh, I wish I would have read that closer. But I would have rather known what was being done by using the Terminal. The app on the play store is probably way more noob-friendly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] screamwork:
You're welcome, good English -_-

And is there any good reason to replace kinguser? It kind of looks faster than SuperSU..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vazersecurity:
Well, you are correct, it is faster. But some apps require SuperSU such as FlashFire. And I was only joking about the english. I just couldn't understand parts of the Website. (which is probably Google Translate's fault)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Neffy27:
It does work and there are two methods to swap out King root for supersu throughout these forums.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ToastyZ71:
There are already 5 threads on the S4 forums about rooting OC1....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] screamwork:
Couldn't find any..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ToastyZ71:
That's because you didn't seaech, or look in the General section where those threads belong, not here in the development section.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] screamwork:
You got me there as I never really looked into general sections, ROOT topics were always belonging to Development. Sorry, I reported myself.

My LG G2 turns off randomly, it seems to happen when I try to make a phone call. i'm on stock Lollipop (it did same before I upgraded it from kitkat, only had the phone about 4 hours) not rooted.

Hi Everyone

I am new both to Xda developers, android, and developing in general in fact I only learned how to program 1 year ago. And so I would greatly appreciate it if you could give me and criticisms, suggestions or pointers! Here's the link to my game on the app store (it's a simple game):

Thank you!

EDIT:

Hi Everyone!

Thanks for trying my app. I have just updated it with more features, but I'm not sure whether these features are good or if they should actually be removed so I was wondering if you guys could play it and tell me your opinions on it! Thanks

1) Coins - So now there are coins that you can collect to buy skins of the bricks, I'm thinking of expanding this further by allowing the player to buy power-ups but we'll see.

2) Ads - Yeah so even though I get so few impressions/installs I do like implementing ads since it feel like I'm actually making a product. Anyways, I recently decided to switch from using admob with mediation of Leadbolt and decided to try Appodeal. Though I'm not sure how good this is. Not in terms of money of course but rather about the user experience. If you can let me know if there are any ads that are "****ty." (That's like the only word I could think of).

3) Difficulty - So yeah, I know some of you have said that it's already really difficult so I was just wondering if adding the coins to collect make it too difficult.

Things I've noted but have been too lazy to implement:

- Help dialog (yeah, it's very archaic and non informative)

- Some of the coloring (I personally think it looks ugly, but I don't know what colors to use)

- More mechanics/levels

So yeah long post but if anyone could help me by playing my app either again or for the first time, I'll be really thankful!

[Android Apps and Games] Domen_O:
All good, but screen often blink.
[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:
Could you please clarify what you mean by the screen blinking? Like when does it blink? Thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] MrBollo:
Hey. Just tried your game. Really like the clean graphics and one touch gameplay. Gets hard very fast! I don't mind but might scare some people off. Maybe you could make the balls go a little slower to begin with and then gradually increase speed. Just a sugestion :)

Great job! (will post review on Play)
[Android Apps and Games] ssojyeti2:
Awesome app name [emoji12]
[Android Apps and Games] VIKINGSS:
Indeed it's an interesing concept, I like it. :)

I don't have a lot of twitter followers, only around 200 or so, but I will tweet about your game if you want. Any particular message, hastags and link you would like me to use 1DEA?
[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:
Thanks for the review! Hmm so unless you are playing a really early version of my app (like the one I submitted to aptoide, I never bothered to update that since the interface is so clunky), one "spoiler" about the mechanics about the game is that all the balls take the same time to drop whether it's just one ball and brick, or many balls and bricks. The thing that actually changes is the intro delay, aka how long does it take from the starting animation for the ball to actually drop. You think that it would be better if instead I kept that delay constant and changed the speed from slow to fast, or do you think a mixture of the two would be more fun and enjoyable?
[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:
Haha anything would be amazing! But I have something to confess...I don't use twitter :D. And honestly it confuses me the whole deal with hashtags and stuff :confused:. But I guess something along the lines of challenging or difficult would be good lol. Thanks for taking the time to play my game! :)

Sure thing, we indie devs have to stick togheter, don't we? ;)

[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:
Thank you and Yup!
[Android Apps and Games] VIKINGSS:
You're welcome. :)
[Android Apps and Games] MrBollo:
No worries. Oh that's cool, I didn't consider the intro delay, that's fine then I think to keep the speed constant. And I got a bit further when I played some more so I guess I just needed som practice. You got me when the whole thing started rotating though! :) That stuff really screws with your brain! I would maybe have eased that in a bit, starting with one brick/ball that's rotating, if I were you, to let the players get a feel for the new mechanic.
[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:
Hmmm I see cool thanks! I actually have more "levels" (I think they would be called levels lol) in mind and will implement them in the future! I will definitely add a rotating level for the early stages in order to get players more used to it at later stages.
[Android Apps and Games] dragosoft:
Looks interesting, tried it out and it definitely is challenging. Good job on the app!
[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:
Thanks! If you have any ways you think that would be improve on the gameplay or even just a review on google play would be greatly appreciated! :o

[Android Apps and Games] dragosoft:
It's good and challenging, responding to your previous post, one thing I noticed is that maybe it gets a little too difficult, too fast. I find that the rotation of the bricks happens too quickly, maybe wait a bit longer before you introduce the rotation part, and probably slow it down just a little bit. Otherwise I think the game establishes a good challenge and is entertaining :)
[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:
Hmmm ok, I will adjust both the speed of the rotation and the difficulty progression of the game. Thanks for your input! :)
[Android Apps and Games] 1DEA:

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] stragen001:
Hello good people of XDA.

I have managed to get my HDX stuck in a bootloop by trying to install CM11 for safestrap 4 whilst running safestrap 3.75 and am hoping someone can help me unbrick it

- Was running update-kindle-13.3.2.4_user_324002120.bin rooted with Safestrap-Thor-3.75-os3.2.4-B02 installed

- Attempted to install [ROM] [STABLE] CM-11 for Safestrap v4 2015/07/26 on stock ROM slot from within safestrap. All appeared to install OK

- Upon reboot NO SAFESTRAP and does not go past grey kindle fire logo (no animation)

- Device reboots after 40 seconds

- After much faffing around with drivers I DO have adb access (for 40 seconds until device reboots) and can send adb reboot bootloader to the device to get fastboot. Fastboot commands work and device does not reboot when in fastboot

- Can get to stock recovery if i issue adb reboot recovery or power+vol up

- I (foolishly I now realise) did do a "reset to factory defaults" at the stock recovery

- Unsure if I still have root - dont think so though due to doing factory reset

- Cannot flash a system update because the file is 849mb and the device reboots before the transfer is complete and I get a "protocol error". Also possible lack of root may cause this not to work even if i could copy it across

- Tried to flash signed-thor-twrp-2870.img but got FAILED (remote: flashing not allowed for locked hw) when trying to copy to the SDCard

Looks like I have managed to overwrite the safestrap recovery and for whatever reason the CM11 ROM is not loading.

As I understand it, the general process for unbricking a device is:

- get fastboot access [OK]

- flash a recovery [HELP stuck on this]

- Install a ROM from recovery [will be ok with this once I get a recovery working]

I THINK I need to unlock the bootloader so that I can flash a recovery image but I need root to do that which I think I have lost. Is there a way to check? Is there a way to get root back from adb/fastboot? I have tried KFHDX Toolkit to root the device but get "Kindle Fire HDX 7 (cm_thor-userdebug 4.4.4 KTU84Q 8680464d7c test-keys) is not supported" so it is seems to be recognising it as CM11?

I would really appreciate any guidance anyone could give me
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cl4ncy:
Why didn't you read first and ask first before you did all that?

It says CM11 for Safestrap v4! You did NOT have v4! You can NOT install TWRP on 3.2.4, you Need 3.10 - 3.2.3.2 for this. And I don't think you can unlock the 3.2.4 bootloader either.

This looks very bad for you.

So you should have downgraded to 3.2.3.2, install TWRP, unlock bootloader, and flash CM11. Now it seems you don't have a working system anymore.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] stragen001:
Yeah I realise all of this now. Thought safestrap would protect me if there was a problem.

So, anyone know if there is anything I can do to salvage my device? Was hoping I would be OK since I have fastboot.....
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Amazon's neutered fastboot environment is useless with a locked bootloader (and next to useless when unlocked). "Factory cables" are totally ineffective on an HDX. You can not unlock your bootloader without downgrading which is impossible without a working system AND functioning recovery. There is an outside chance you might be able to root using HDX toolkit (look for it in the Android Development forum) but not sure what that will accomplish given your device is fully borked. You can not flash a new rom with locked bootloader. You can not flash a 'real' recovery with a locked bootloader or bootloader version vunerable to the signature exploit (3.2.4 is not). Ditto for the bootloader itself. I could go on but the point should be obvious.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shuyin747:
After updating to 5.1.1 I noticed that the font color of the messages that I've sent before the update (5.0.2) and after the update (5.1.1) are different and it annoys me. The old messages are darker in color and the new ones are light grey in color.

What's really bad is that the grey color gives an impression of the message still pending to be sent.

Anyone else saw such problem on their device as I am wondering if I'm the only person getting this problem and maybe a clean install would work?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shuyin747:

Every root method I find either doesn't work with my phone carrier, or it doesn't work on Linux/doesn't explain how to do it on Linux. Please help.
[Verizon LG G3] epidenimus:
What software version?

Do you have Android SDK and ADB setup and configured?

You may not even need to use your machine to get root. Several exploits have apps that can be downloaded and run directly on the phone. The earlier the version of stock you have, the better, so don't take an OTA update if you just purchased the device and it is nagging you. Either way, you'll still want a working ADB for later use.

[AT&T LG G3] petermg:
Sorry if this has been covered, didn't see it when I did a search and found similar issues doing a google search but not the exact same one I'm having.

Sometimes when I try to restart my G3, it won't boot back up. I'd say 1 out of every 5 boots or reboots. I'll hold down the power button to restart the phone, click on restart, it will prompt me and I will click ok, then it will say it's restarting, then goes black and doesn't come back on. I have to pull the battery and usually the only way I can get it to come back is I have to hold down the power button and THEN insert the battery and then it will start booting up. Not a HUGE issue because I can take my case off in only a few seconds, but man if I had one of those huge extended battery cases that take like 10 minutes to put on and off, I'd be hatin' it ;)

SPECS: D850, Lollipop, rooted.

Now I did not have this issue unrooted. This only happened after I rooted the phone. I used it for about 2 weeks unrooted. I'm sorry I don't recall the exact method I used to root it. So I can live with it but I'd just thought I'd ask and see if anyone has a solution or understanding why this is happening. Thanks for reading my post.
[AT&T LG G3] petermg:
Yeah.. this is a weird issue.
[AT&T LG G3] mark7201:
Did you ever end up finding further information on this issue? I just rooted and installed TWRP yesterday and I am experiencing an identical problem. When it happens the screen is dark and power button unresponsive, in addition the LED does not light when plugged in. I can recover using one of three methods:

1: Unseat/reseat the battery once or twice (most times twice)

2: Plug into USB charger with no battery, wait for "?" screen and insert battery...then it powers up

3: Insert battery while holding down power button as you mentioned.

I rooted using this method (only method that would work) , and bump'd / installed TWRP using ImagprepGUI

Got the exact same problem on my G3. Rooted and twrp installed. Any solution yet?
[AT&T LG G3] jymmiphreak:
I have a similar issue. Mine reboots every time, but when I power down the phone overnight and try to turn it on the next morning, I have to take out the battery to get it to respond to the power button. I have held it for a full minute waiting for it to come on with no response. This has happened twice now. Not a big issue since it only happens when powering down the phone overnight. If I power it off then turn it back on immediately, the power button works perfectly. I bought the phone already rooted, updated twrp to 2.8.7.0 and installed jedi kernel and rom.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Not an answer, just advice--why unroot? The rooted ones sell for more. If you're concerned about info then just deregister it then if there are side loaded apps that might have sensitive info, delete them. Not sure you'll get much for a used unrooted/unrootable AFTV.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Terry T:
I just deregistered an AFTV and registered it to a different Amazon account: the original Netflix user and password info was still there. If you only de-register, first you need to clear the caches and userdata for all apps. I have no idea if there is a way to do this globally, or if you need to do it for each app individually.
