[Elephone P8000] MrBoingy:
I've been having the same issue and here's my findings.

If you try stock rom (whatever version), Barclays apps will never work despite Root Checker says it's not rooted.

However, in another thread, I was pointed to an app called Simply Unroot and I tried it and initially it did not work.

The dev of Simply Unroot spent hours trying to figure out why Barclays app thought it was rooted but eventually, he suggested I try the FlyMe ROM.

So I put on Philz recovery, put on FlyMe, I used Simply Unroot to unroot it (since it's full-on rooted initially) and WHAM, after a reboot, the Barclays apps work fine.

I don't have enough knowledge to say why FlyMe/Philz is ok.

I don't know if it's the ROM/Recovery combo that fixes it.

I did try stock and Eragon with Philz and the Barclays apps don't work on there.

Either way, Simply Unroot app/service is fantastic.

It's a shame it's the FlyMe ROM that works since it's not very good.

Does anyone know WHY Stock ROM is seen as Rooted by Barclays whereas FlyMe is not?

I'd much rather use Stock ROM since it has the fingerprint scanner (and English UK setting....)
[Elephone P8000] kevvyboy:
Stock ROM is 'pre-rooted', at least the last two or three versions have been. They just require SuperSU to get app control - hence a few posts saying they rooted the phone by simply installing SuperSu (which it doesn't).

So it would seem that FlyMe whilst based on stock ROM doesn't have this - a good option to have. Perhaps some of it is based on the earlier 'un-rooted' stock ROMs?
[Elephone P8000] MrBoingy:
The FlyMe ROM is based on the ROM for another phone altogether... er.. Meizu was it? That's why it doesn't have any ability to use the fingerprint scanner.

It's just really annoying though... banking apps aren't the only apps that have this kind of over-zealous check... there are other enterprise apps that have it.

I don't understand why the stock ROM can't be made so it is 'fully' unrooted yet have it easy to root later on.

£130 for a phone that is super fast and does everything flagships can do but I can't use it/recommend it since it can't run apps that most people consider necessary.

Other tips

It has excellent separate restoration capabilities: not only can you select what PIM type to restore (see THIS), but also you can select the individual Messaging folders to be restored as can be seen in the following screenshot:

http://www.winmobiletech.com/072007PIMBackup/PIMBackupMessagingFolderList.bmp.png

(A quick note: of them, it’s only SMS messages (MMS messages are still not supported) that will be restored on another device!)

Also, it has EXCELLENT options on setting what to overwrite / delete upon restoring: 1 2 3

Cross-restoration

As has already been pointed out, you will not only want to use the excellent (for example, scheduled) backup features of PIM Backup, but also its cross-device restoration capabilities.

I’ve thoroughly these with all kinds of PIM data and messages between several of my WM5 / WM6 Pocket PC’s and no-touchscreen smartphones. As can clearly be seen, cross-restoration (that is, simple PIM database transfer to another device) works just great. All you need to do is select the only PIM database(s) to transfer for backup, transfer (for example, beam via infrared or Bluetooth or transfer via a memory card) the file to the other one (and, when needed, PIM backup’s EXE itself) and, there, just restore the data. It’s really simple!

The cross-restoration compatibility chart

http://www.winmobiletech.com/072007PIMBackup/table.png

As can be seen, in general, you can safely transfer between any kind of WM5 and WM6 devices, both Smartphones and Pocket PC’s, the results will most likely work. I’ve only encountered real problems with transferring PIM data and messages from my HTC Oxygen / s310 (a WM5 Smartphone) – the Universal (which was able to import the backup files of both the WM5 Dell Axim x51v and the WM6 HTC Vox Smartphone) just couldn’t import it.

Smartphone compliance

The only problem I could find was the inability to see files at the bottom of a directory tree as can be seen in HERE. This means you won’t probably want to put your backup files in, say, the root directory of your Smartphone or will want at least once start the backup app so that it associates itself with .pib files.

Works great even on 176*220 Smartphones; the only problem I could find was the slightly overlapping buttons HERE.

[HTC Sensation] Caligineus:
Hi everyone!

I have bought a Sensation for a few bucks.

It is in good condition, but i experience some problems with it.

Wlan, Bluetooth and Mobile Internet Connection are not working.

I received the Device with Android 2.3.3 installed (Stockrom).

I did an Stockupdate (OTA) to ISC but it solved nothing.

If i click on Wlan in the Settings it says: Activating and after 10 or 15 Seconds it displays "Error".

The Mobile Internet Connection is activated but i dont see any 3G Logo and no Internet is Available.

And Bluetooth does nothing... if i click on it, it say "Activating" but nothing happens.

I think it is an Hardware Error, but 3 at the same time?

Do you guys know that i can do now, or should i throw in the Trash?

Thank you!

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaggettBeaver:
Some tips for those who already took the OG5 OTA update and want root (will be obvious to most of you, and most of this has already been covered in other posts, but some might benefit from this guide with download links included):

1. Copy the BeastMode kernel zip to your phone or SD card.

2. Start Odin3 v3.10.6

3. Place the TWRP tar in the AP slot

4. Uncheck Auto Reboot in the options tab

5. Flash TWRP -- when it's finished flashing, disconnect USB and pull the battery for 10 seconds (on my phone, if I put the battery in too soon, it boots without pressing the power key)

6. Put the battery back in and boot to TWRP

7. Install the modified kernel zip you copied in step 1, and reboot.

8. Since you're in TWRP, might as well clear the cache.

At this point, there are a number of ways to get SuperSU on your phone. My TWRP asked me if I wanted it to install SuperSU, I said yes, but I already had SuperSU installed on my phone, anyway.

You can also use TWRP to install the SuperSU zip.

My phone complained about "KNOX has unfortunately stopped", so I just used Titanium to freeze all the KNOX apps, which cured that.

Be very patient the first time you run apps that request root. It will pop up the "grant" dialog eventually, but sometimes it's slow to do that after a boot.

NOTES: Some users are reporting that TWRP won't load. It may have to do with tripping that reactivation lock with Odin. Once done, it's possible TWRP can't deal with it. So you may be able to get around that by using Odin to install CWM recovery instead of TWRP.

Also, try rebooting recovery again after the flash to make sure the root prompt is clear. If it is booting the system, go into security and disable the reactivation lock.

Still getting the business about slow to wake or launcher not responding? Try adding the line below to end of your build.prop but have one empty line at bottom with no added spaces to the end this line:

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

(thanks to samep for the added info in NOTES)

I sent the PM to not clutter this thread with off-topic discussion.

Sorry, I don't have this phone, nor have I rooted one.

If you need help or don't know where to start, I'd suggest reading thread below before asking in thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61688768&postcount=1

Reading through the OP's threads, the same thing started at OE1 update that started here, you can no longer downgrade in Odin once taking this one and later updates; it progressively worsens. Regarding your carrier, it appears that root prior to OG5 update is a prerequisite as well as steps to keep root in the update process (those do not apply here). But I don't claim to know any more about it than you so read, search and ask in the appropriate thread. Best wishes for success; perhaps it's not as grim as I describe it. I only researched a few minutes, following closed threads to links to next thread, starting here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61682294&postcount=242

If you have a choice, don't take the OE1 update until you're rooted and clear on how to keep root through updates. But again, I'm not claiming to know any more than yourself, possibly less with the effort I gave.

Anyone else finding this through search, please keep this thread on topic. Refer to your specific thread regarding phone model and carrier. Thanks.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Chainfire auto root for Note 4 has been updated. You could root with that. OK1 is the latest update; no reason to go back to an old update. You can still run a custom OG5 ROM if you like. I just don't recommend going backwards in Odin. Some stock tars just aren't able to flash after more recent updates are taken.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reivaj1803:
I have an issue I'm hoping you could help me with.

I posted this in the Chainfire thread, but have not received any response.

I rooted my Sprint Note 4 SM-N910P via Chainfire Auto Root. With the exception of 1 issue of being stuck in the bootloader where I had to remove the battery and then boot into recovery manually, all went well.

Once it was done and rebooted I got a message during boot, 'Set Warranty Bit: Kernel'

I have SM-N910P 5.1.1 and SU with Titaniun Backup Pro. Reason was to get rid of the bloatware.

I have un-installed the bloatware via TB and the confirmations show they have been deleted with strikethrough but no sooner that I go to check top confirm, they are active with the strikethrough removed.

I also get, out of the blue, prompt to download massive amounts of bloatware I never had to begin with "Sprint Default Configuration: Select to Install New Sprint Default Apps". At first thought it was an update so i downloaded it and along came uber, nba, stock care racing, sprint fun app and sprint international app and a few others.

I tried the same with those, to un-install via TB, and while some have been un-installed, the remaining have not and I get the message prompt to install again.

Anyone idea how I got this and how I can get rid of it?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
I believe it was determined that titanium wasn't working correctly due to lack of busybox. OsmOsis wrote a nice script to install busybox that works for systemless root as well as the traditional system root method.

Goto the link below and look for his link to busybox installer and install that in recovery.http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40409356&postcount=1

If you don't want the custom recovery, use Stericson Busybox in Google Play, instead.

The Sprint apps are likely getting pushed by a root folder /preload You can't freeze this with titanium and how you deal with that may leave indicators to detect that you modified system. Mounting to delete may trigger that and make it not possible to full un-root to take OTA for update. But you could just freeze the preloaded applications after they update. If you use the application manager in Settings, you get the option to remove updates and disable some apps but not all apps. I'm not sure how this applies to preload.

If OTA capability is not of importance, you can consider taking further steps to get a better kernel, make root more stable and modify system and read only partitions for more customization like deleting the preload directory.

So the solution would depend on your preferences. Retain OTA capability with strict SELinux Enforcing mode or go for more customization, not caring for OTA updates but waiting for update stock tar and electing a more stable root with custom kernel? Which would you prefer?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reivaj1803:
I actually did remove and disabled most the apps that I was able to. The rest there were not options, other than root.

My preference was to root, maintain OTA capabilities and remove the bloatware.

What option/s would best suit that preference?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
I'd suggest freezing instead of removing the bloated apps.

I believe it's still an unknown if OTA update is possible with full un-root after doing what you're trying to do. So consider the risk and the fact that the opportunity may have already been lost when you tried to uninstall those apps with titanium. I'm not sure that freezing apps will still allow OTA with full un-root. Some confirmation would help; I can't give a definitive answer on what you can asks can't do and still retain OTA but good luck and update this thread with your results if compelled to share. Thanks in advance.
