[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
Hmm - so if you tap on the notification, it doesn't update the binaries automatically? Never had that issue...

Does Superuser actually work? If so, and the notification only comes up after a reboot, I probably wouldn't even worry about it...
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfredojp:
The super Su app works but none other app recognizes that I have root access, like bloatware removers. I followed every step.

Any ideas?
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
What exact phone (626, 626s, etc), carrier and Android version?
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfredojp:
Plain 626, AT&T Android 5.1

In this same thread they said it would work
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
Did you use the Supersu zip linked to in the detailed step-by-step procedure post? I know that people had issues with the supersu .zip posted in another thread...

Other than that, I'm not sure - maybe try to flash supersu again?
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimmyP:
I have yet to see any warning about SuperSU needing updating. I just confirmed that I can remove any bloatware, edit build.prop, etc.

I can absolutely confirm that I have Cyanogen Recovery booting too, as Im staring at it now.

Maybe I got an older variant of this phone? The store said it was their last one.

Is there anything I can check to verify that this is the same model?
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
Which version of Android are you running on your 626? 4.x or 5.x?
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimmyP:
5.1, hardware info says "desire 626" not 626s or anything else.
[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
I'm wondering if he used the wrong SuperSU .zip file... Someone else had the same issue and after using the correct SuperSU .zip file (the one posted in the detailed step-by-step rooting thread), he was fine...

Let's wait and get confirmation from the user above as to which SuperSU .zip file he used - hopefully, that's the issue.

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masteryates:
I'm using adaptive brightness on the Nexus 9 running stock 5.1.1 and the brightness keeps going up and down, roughly every few minutes even though the conditions are not changing in the room. :eek:

I've tried lux and things are even worse as it feels like there is an argument between the app and the tablet. At first, I thought it was a hardware issue so I changed for another. Things are the same on the second, (although the light bleed is less thankfully.) :angel:

Have any of you guys suffering the same issue? Is it sorted in the M update?

Thanks in advance. :highfive:
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enriquejones666:
Yup, same here on my N9 and N7, running LP 5.1.1. Haven't tried MM yet, but I'm not expecting any improvements. Auto brightness, regardless of what fancy name they give it, is just a half-baked solution.

Thanks for getting back to me Enrique. :highfive:

I'm glad I'm not the only one suffering this issue and that pretty much rules out a hardware issue. I upgraded to M last night and am still seeing the fluctuations. Strangely though, my Nexus 7 2013 doesn't have the issue running 5.1.1. :silly:

You are lucky Enrique, I didn't think the 7 2012 got MM? I know it's off topic but how does it run? (I remember the 7 2012 was slow on L)
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enriquejones666:
You're right. There is no official MM image for 2012 N7. I'm trying a custom ROM from the N7 Dev section. I'm having problems getting the gapps working, so too soon to tell if MM is any better.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Hi guys!

This is my first time to post a thread in this forum, I just bought a Samsung Note with model SHV-E160S, Android Version 4.0.4 and Build# IMM76D.VH29. I know that this is a Korean Variant and I'm using it here in Philippines (I can send SMS -- Openline). I don't know if this phone is already rooted, I don't know how to check.

What I'm trying to accomplish is to upgrade this phone from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 then later on upgrade it to Android Lollipop 5.1 and I don't know how. It will be a great pleasure if someone help me or direct me on what should I do.

I'm totally new to android devices and I'm not familiar on how to upgrade,update or root an android device.

Thanks!

Hello guys, any ideas? Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
You'll be able to find your firmware here https://mega.nz/#F!IxJTDDQQ!TTgzxjX8d7EnzemoIj0ogg

4.1.2 was the last official update from Samsung for your device. If you want to update to newer than that, it will have to be done via updating with a custom recovery and custom rom, such as TWRP recovery and CyanogenMod 11 or 12/12.1.

Follow upgrade instructions from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and sub your firmware file instead of N7000.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Thank you es0tericcha0s for this information.

What I'm trying to do right now is updating my SHV-e160s from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 using Kies v2.6. Unfortunately, I'm getting this error "Failed to run firmware upgrade: unknown error.". Until now, I'm afraid to update my firmware manually as I don't have much knowledge to do that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
1) Download firmware and Odin

2) Open Odin as admin

3) Load firmware in PDA or AP slot depending on which version of Odin used

4) Boot to Download Mode and plug in your phone

5) Once Odin recognizes it ( will show highlighted - COM:xx where "xx" is any number, doesn't matter which ones) hit start

6) Grab a drink and a snack and come back in 10 minutes or so

7) If device bootloops, reset in recovery

Once the files are downloaded, the whole process takes less than 10-12 minutes or so. Everything you need is in the guide I linked to besides the firmware you need, which is in the Mega link. If you need a video guide, there are dozens on YouTube. I find it much easier to use than Kies and once you have it working, then there are not many things you will do that restoring with Odin and a factory reset won't get you out of.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Alright, I'll try these steps immediately and will comeback for the result. Thanks again.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Hello, sorry I forgot to ask, will this root my device? I'm afraid I might bricked it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
No, this is just the official update. As long as the download is good and you follow those directions, you won't do anything that won't be easily recoverable if it doesn't work right away. Soft bricking is not a big deal and nothing you would do here would cause anything worse unless you unplug the phone in the middle of something important.

---------- Post added at 09:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------

And because you'll probably ask... It's easy to root. Just download Chainfire's SuperSU zip, put it on your phone's storage and use Odin to install TWRP recovery (just like you do with the whole firmware package) , boot to recovery before it boots to the OS and install the zip. Reboot and enjoy.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Hello again es0tericcha0s, I haven't tried the instructions that you gave me yesterday as I'm still downloading the firmware, last night I encountered an issue after enabling my Bluetooth, something like "NFC Service has stopped." just keeps on popping up. So I turned off the bluetooth then restarted my phone, it went well for a while.

After that, I enabled my 3G Cellular Data to check what was NFC service error is, after a few minutes, I lost my signal, phone turned to No Service, then in Settings -> About Phone, I got an Unknown Baseband.

EDIT

I got No Service since last night up until now.

EDIT Oct. 13, 2015 9:49 AM +08:00 Manila Time

I manage to update my phone from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.2. But still, my baseband is Unknown and I have no signal.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
If it did that before you tried to flash anything...that doesn't sound good. Hard to say without testing it, but kind of sounds like the baseband chip (hardware issue).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
I also though of that, hopefully not.

When I first got the phone, my gf sent me our pictures via bluetooth , no issues occured. After a while, I noticed that there are so many photos of the previous owner (around 1000+) and mp3s (around 1000+ also). So I connected the phone via usb to my pc and deleted all those pictures and mp3s inside the My Computer -> SHV-E160S -> Phone (Computer\SHV-E160S\Phone). After doing so, I started to encouter some issues, when enabling the bluetooth, the phone hangs and reboots then the error 'NFC service has stopped' keeps on popping up, until it went Unknown Baseband.

Now, the phone keeps on rebooting similar to the symptoms that it gets when baseband version is unknown.

I'm looking for solutions to fix the unknown baseband and saw the Back up and Restore EFS, I just need to root the device to try this fix. Maybe I'll post an update whether if I manage to solve this problem or not, if it didn't fix the issue then maybe the problem is the baseband chip. what a crap!

This is my reference for the EFS Fix

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Rooting will be easy. Just install TWRP with Odin and use the SuperSU zip from Chainfire. Process should take like 5 minutes once everything is downloaded.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
So I need to install TWRP first before rooting the device? Also I'm planning to use a rooted stock firmware which is 4.1.2, I just don't know the difference between UH24 and MH2, I've read that UH24 is already old and it's better to use a MH2 build and what is the Recovery UH24/MH2?

EDIT:

I forgot, I cannot check my current Baseband since it is still unknown.

EDIT: 12:30PM +8:00

I managed to get my Build#, it is MH2, I'm currently looking for a rooted 4.1.2 MH2 download link.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Way faster and easier to use the method I outlined, but either way should work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Sorry, I'm really a root virgin here. While following your advise, I'm also currently looking at this guide -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1924535. I'm done downloading Tegrak for MH2, a small problem I encountered here is I don't have a folder named 'sdcard' in my phone, so I created one and copied the 'Kernel' .zip, also I copied it to usbStorage folder.

I'm about to flash the 'Recovery' .tar to my phone. Hoping a success result
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Should be fine. Your phone's internal storage is seen by the OS as /sdcard. Doesn't matter where you put the file as long as you remember where it's at so you can navigate to it through recovery to install.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Oh crap, I didn't thought of that. Installing 'Kernel' .zip now.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeortega:
Finally! I'm done rooting my phone, though I encountered another issues again. My Menu Button and Back Button does not work.

UPDATE: 4:08PM +8:00GMT

I think I found the problem as to why my Menu button and Back button doesn't work. I'v check my Baseband and it is -> E160SKSJMH1 and my Build # is -> JZO54K.E160SKSJMH2. Am I using a wrong FW as supposed to what I should be using? Which build should I install, the MH1 or the MH2?

Also, the Tegrak Kernel I've used is Build 48 for SHV-E160S MH2. I've also tried factory resetting the phone but the issue still exists.

Thanks!

UPDATE: 4:41PM +8:00GMT

Managed to fixed the issue by updating my Touch Firmware. Cool!

It's possible to just hand code the WLAN EEPROM Value to your dead WLAN EEPROM too. Download your dead EEPROM and Edit the location mentioned by drummer.

Warning: It took about 30 mins to hand code the WLAN EEPROM DATA.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chrisvor:
Would it be possible for someone to extract the eeprom file from a working wlan device, "zero-out" the MAC address portion, or replace with 'FF' or some other 'dummy' value, and post this here, so those of us without access to a working device can use to flash our damaged devices?

By "blanking-out" the MAC address in the attached file, you dont risk having your MAC address used by everybody, so there is no "legal" risk, and help us without a working device to fix ours...

Thanks for the solution guys and hopefully you can post the file here for us to use.

Good work !! :)

Someone has repaired his hermes ??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
I did. And so did Laikos. Actually, he fixed his about 20 minutes before I did, he is a better editor than I am. Why do you think we did the research? We both had devices with non-working wlans, and now they're working again.

...and no, we're not posting, or sending anyone the file. You have to find a friend that will help you, as your trust in each other will safeguard against any possible mis-use of this technique.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pop20032004:
I don't believe that this is a good idea, as you don't know what else (from EEPROMcode) is corrupted!!

The MAC address is the only visible part to us...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
How did you come to that conclusion?

All Laikos was suggesting, is you could type in the data, rather than replace the data by "cloning" it from another's device. Once you know the offsets, which you do if you read this technique, it's quite easy, although time consuming. So far, each file we have examined have had the identical wlan signatures, and identical first three numbers of the MAC address. That suggests that HTC was assigned a set of MAC addresses by OUI for their use.

BTW, using SPL 2.30 oli, you can change your backup CID, and model number (Hermes 100, 200, 300, or whatever you want to change it to like "Hermes 911").
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] aleks_htctynt:
Help

I believe that would be better than someone give the instructions detailed for those that they do not have other device to the hand to extract the EEPROM, extract your corrupt EEPROM and edit it.

In my case, live in Mexico city and these devices are extremely rare of seeing by here.

As soon as if someone can help me to obtain the file of a EEPROM will be I thanked what is.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Nakura:
Open the file in a Hex Editor, and remove all the non usable Hex Data (basically the commands you typed) between offsets 00000000-00000140 up thru the Hex equivalent of the word HTCS. Delete the data so that you actually delete the word HTCS. Then at the end of the file, offset (00040000), delete from the very end of the file (right to left) thru the word HTCE. You delete the Hex equivalent of the word HTCE. You can leave the D+ ] there as we're only going to write 40000 bytes. Now the now MAC address is at ROW 0001F850 with two bytes at row 0001F860. The MAC reads backwards. Save it as herm1.nb (but not in the same folder as the original).

i can't edit file " herm1.nb"

you can guide again or help me to edit my file.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] dr-jo:
Hello,

Is it normal that my file herm1.nb is rained large that 30Mo at the time of that creation, thank you.

Edit:I excuse myself I have to make an error the first handling, I succeeded in having the file herm1.nb has 256 Ko (262 ' 439 bytes).

If I do not modify the mac address that you it will occur on the other apparatus, thank you
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chrisvor:
@drummer10630: I do appreciate all your and Laikos efforts to solve this problem and to let the whole community know the method so everybody can fix their devices... however, the reason I asked if anybody could post the file was not a sign of "laziness", rather it is due to the lack of friends who have a TyTN or who want to void their warranty by flashing a non-official bootloader in order to "do me the favor" of extracting their eeprom data.

If any of you guys have extracted the eeprom and you have edited it to include your MAC address, could you please edit a COPY of this file, put "FF" in all the bytes of the MAC address (which is the only thing that "ties" this file to your purchased device and hence yourself), and post it here for us "tytn-friend-less" people to use?

Many thanks for EVERYBODY's efforts in solving this :)
