Super backup by MobileIdea Stuido?

I got that no logo means the app is removed, then why was Chrome showing logo?

What's an aosp rom?

In my case after restart the free space was decreased so that is why I was concerned. Will get back to you tonight.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billubakra:
What's an asop rom dear?

Should I uninstall both the AllShare softwares? What do these do btw?

Check these-

A question, when I open different apps, sometimes it asks whether you want Superuser to give root permission allow or deny. Can I manually add apps to Superuser like Cleanmaster etc.? Before disabling Superuser few days back when it was not working, it did ask for Cleamaster, but now it is not doing that, any concern?

Now check these-

Good news, eh? I think when I cleared the cache using your method, and then tried to root it worked, I think. I might be wrong though. Can you tell me the name of a good root checker? What is busybox?

Man the wifi in my phone is not working. It was working like an hour ago but now it has stopped working. It is connected to the wifi hotspot but then nothing no page or playstore is opening. I did not install any new software. What should I do?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
You MUST have the international version to continue.

Here is a link to the software: https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0B4vTiHTBB629ZW5vQndpbjFnblk/edit

Put the phone in download mode.

Connect your phone to your pc via a good quality usb cable (motherboard socket only!) and install the drivers. I had best results with 1500.

Run odin and tick "one package", click "pda" (if not pda just hit the second one down on the right hand side (4 buttons) and load the rom. Wait for it to hash check.

Click start and wait approx 6 minutes for blue pass in odin.

Reboot your device into recovery and wipe data and cache. (factory reset)

Flash the rom again to make sure all traces of old root are gone.

!! If you get stuck at the samsung boot logo wipe data and cache in recovery and reboot now. Do not skip this step if you are stuck at the boot logo!!

Go to download mode again but flash cfautoroot via odin, pda button.

Device will reboot and do its red text thing. Just wait it will reboot again.

Done. Enjoy a reliable, rooted stock rom.

DO NOT RESET FROM THIS POINT ON OR YOU WILL LOSE ROOT.

**side note** busybox is a translation suite/bridge between security enhanced linux (selinux) and standard linux.**

You're very welcome. I have edited since you replied so read it again. I just made it a bit more coherent. Less chance of buggering it up.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snkmv:
Hello sorry I was away, it seems your root does exist, you may want to replace it with SU by Chainfire, Google how to replace KingUser with SuperUser, it was an app, so it's simple

As for your Wi-Fi I cannot help you as I don't know if it's just your Wi-Fi or every Wi-Fi in general

I thought you didn't wanna use Odin .-.

You can either do what Shivadow said and flash Stock ROM via Odin and try to root using cfautoroot (1) OR replace KingUser with SuperUser by Chainfire (2)

For method 2 use this guide http://androidmtk.com/replace-kinguser-with-supersu

Remember neither method 1 or 2 is completely safe so if you don't feel comfortable with it STOP and do more research

As for AOSP ROM it's basically your Firmware without all the junk that Samsung puts, you will learn how to flash an AOSP ROM when you get a custom recovery

NOTE: FLASHING STOCK ROM WILL DELETE ALL OF YOUR DATA; YOU WILL NEED TO FACTORY RESET THE FIRST TIME YOU BOOT OTHERWISE IT WILL STUCK AT A BOOTLOOP
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billubakra:
Thanks guys. Few queries-

1. What is a stock rom, stfautroot, odin, custom recovery and bootloop?

2. Why do we need to replace Superuser(Kingo one) with Superuser(Chainfire)?

3. This method "seems" ok, I mean not that harmful. Do I have a go for this or any last piece of advice?

http://androidmtk.com/replace-kinguser-with-supersu

4. If I replace Superuser(Kingo one) with Superuser(Chainfire) then any need to flash stock?

One more thing the wifi signal in the phone decrease for no apparent reason. Say I am sitting one meter away from the modem the signals will be like one or two. If I forget the connection and reconnect it then the signals are full for few minutes and then they decrease. Can I disable Superuser to see if that is causing it, because this issue started few days ago only when Superuser became effective after I cleared the cache as snkmv told me.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snkmv:
1. -Stock ROM is a firmware that was developed by the original manufacturer (Samsung for us), they're not the smoothest of ROMs but they will return your Phone back to factory fresh if you every did anything bad to your phone

-CFAutoRoot is a zip file that exploits your system and make it read and write supported (of course it's much more complicated than that but I simplified it)

-Odin is a program that runs on Windows and Linux (unconfirmed) used to flash stock ROMs, Kernels, Modem, bootloader and such

-You can treat a custom recovery or a recovery in general as an OS but its not the same as your Android firmware, as they run completely different, a stock recovery can only flash official updates, wiping basic data, and rebooting your phone, a custom recovery is a powerful tool that you can use from recovering your phone to destroying your phone :d

-Bootloop is a situation where your phone will boot but it'll either be stuck at your SIII splash screen or your boot animation, easily fixable

2. SuperSU by Chainfire is more widespread and compatible with more root consumers, KingoUser although known is not very reliable AFAIK

3. If it fails the app will tell you, you won't brick your system

4. No you don't need to, flashing stock will remove all traces of SU binary from your phone

Your Wi-Fi might be the problem, can you check with other device? Did you bought & used a new case?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billubakra:
Thanks for replying. Sorry for the late reply, I wasn't well.

One more thing, without rooting we cannot move all installed apps/games to memory card. But I read months ago that after rooting we can do that using Titanium Backup or some other software. Could you please guide me through the same?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snkmv:
Hi, for the sake of helping you I have flashed stock on my device, I also rooted with Kingoroot

What I did was

I Installed KingoRoot, it succeed, tried SuperSu Me but it hangs, when I check root it was the same error, tried rooting still error, so, I rebooted my phone and rooted again, success, this time I quickly installed TWRP using TWRP Manager then installed a custom ROM, my advice is after you succeed rooting get a custom ROM

As for backing up your app data you will need root, I don't know any method using no root
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billubakra:
Thanks for doing all this to help me out brother. You are so kind. What's TWRP? My device is rooted as all root checker apps are saying the same and I have removed few junk apps. I will try to replace KingUser with SuperUser and will let you know the results asap.

Since the device is rooted so-

1. How to take a "complete backup"?

2. How to move some phone memory only apps/games to sd card?

[Lenovo Vibe Shot Questions & Answers] daddy32:
Hello! This happened to me just yesterday and I managed to solve it by following these steps:

- Download an official rom update (in a QSB file) - try googling Lenovo Z90-7 Vibe Shot - QSB.

- Create sdfuse folder on the sdcard (using computer) and copying qsb file there.

- Insert sdcard into phone

- Enter factory menu by powering off and then turning it on using POWER BUTTON + VOLUME DOWN

- There's an "SD Update" option, use it.

After that, my phone booted successfully!

Hooray. BUT: the first problem ("1. When I press/hold Volume + button and plug in usb cable , the phone vibarte 2 times . ") persisted :(

So, still haven't found a way to use miflash again :(

If anyone finds a way to solve this one, I will buy him a beer. Or a cat.

Hi,

here is my solution if can help.

I had on my vibe shot s208 rooted ROW. It stacked after SU update in boot loop.

1. I did wipe data without formatting from recovery mode (Vol+ and Vol- and Power button. When Logo is on release power button and hold Vol+ and Vol - until you are in recovery mode). STILL boot loop.

2. I did wipe data with formatting from the same menu. - STILL boot loop.

3. I did factory reset from recovery menu (Vol - and Power after logo is on release Power and hold Vol - until you get recovery mode) - STILL boot loop.

Then I did next:

1. I downloaded and installed QFIL (QPST_2.7.422) - I am not allowed to post links yet.

2. I have connected OTG adapter to phone. Phone was off.

3. then connected OTG to PC. It was some HDD activities but I did not hear any sound.

4. press Vol- for as long as something is going on - HDD activities. Then I think came up sound too - but not sure.

5. I had installed Qualcomm USB drivers from before I suppose.

6. Because I couldn't see my device as ...908 I disconnected and connected again usb cable... then I got my device as ...908 in device manager, but it was written "RECONNECTED" or similar in front of word "QUALCOM".

7. Then just follow instructions for QFIL. and ROM will be installed.

First I have installed INTERNATIONAL no root ROM. But because I needed phone to be rooted in order to use data recovery software I flashed again with s240 ROOTED. When I flashed second time I did not use OTG, just direct usb cable connection to PC, and my phone was again recognized after I reconnected usb cable and in device manger was "RECONNECTED" in front of word "QUALCOM".

How To fix This Issue

I had a similar problem 2 days ago. I tried all methods but was unsuccessful. My computer couldn't detect my port as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 but rather Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostic 9008 .

I found a way to fix that driver issue and i was able to flash my phone. And now My lenovo vibe shot is back to life.

I am not allowed to post links yet but i have provided the name of the sites

I hope this works for you

First Make sure your phone is turned off. U can do that by booting to recovery mode and sellect shutdown

Step 0

Download the right firmware for your device. I use other ones they didnt work.

This one worked perfectly for my device firmware version S118: Z90a40_USR_S118_1505272046_Q2020131.4_ROW_qpst.7z

Find it at boycracked forum or xda-developers forum

Step 1

Disable driver signature enforcement

Find the steps here

Step 2

Install the qdLoader HS-USB Driver

Find the steps at androidbrick

at this point your computer cant still recognise the device as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008. You have to do the next step

Step 3

Manually Install VCOM Drivers on your Computer. This will enable your computer to detect your device as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008

Find the steps at hovatek forum

Step 4

Head to this site and use the second method to flash your phone

( SECOND METHODS ) Installing the firmware using QPST/QFIL

How I fixed this

I fixed it installing a update.zip via recovery (vol + plus vol - plus power) I found here

This not fixed the phone , but allowed me to unlock bootloader entering in fastboot mode (vol + plus vol - plus plug usb) using this

http://lenovo-forums.ru/topic/18149-...B0-bootloader/

Then I was allowed to install TWRP as explained here

http://lenovo-forums.ru/topic/18150-...-by-sevenmaxs/

Then I was able to go to TWRP terminal and type

reboot edl

Phone rebooted into downloader mode and I was able to install this rom with QFIL

http://www.needrom.com/download/leno...encn-unlocked/

and I restored NVRAM with a qcn file I found in Ebay after putting the phone in diagnostics mode. Then I changed imeis, meid and esn to the original ones I found in the box. Phone fixed.

Just note that this file was for a Z90-7 rom and it will not work with a Z40a20 rom.

Hope this helps someone.

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shawndoc:
Hi, I am trying to upgrade my Sprint HTC One M9 to 3.41.651.4.

Current Software Version: 2.11.651.19

My phone finds and installs 2.11.651.180, everything seems to work correctly, however, after rebooting, my phone is still on software 2.11.651.19.

My phone has never been rooted, s-on/off, or anything else. The only thing that I have changed on it is adding an SDCard. Everything else has been OTAs. Last factory reset was 3 weeks ago to solve a problem I was having with Gmail not syncing properly.

I would prefer to not have to factory reset it again by manually upgrading the firmware. Is their a log somewhere that will show what is preventing the upgrade from taking?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shawndoc:
Ok, some more details. It appears when doing the OTA, the error I am getting is a System 7 error?

Then when I try to flash following the instructions on HTC's site using the RUU .exe, I get a 155 error.

From googling it appears both of these errors are caused by modifying the system partition. Which is great, except I haven't. I haven't monkeyed with my phone. Not unlocking, s-on/off, bootloader, recovery, etc. So I'm not sure how it came to be this way or how to restore it. Previous OTAs have all installed without issue.

Software Status: Modified

Locked

S-ON

Security Warning
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shawndoc:
And now my phone is stuck with a white screen. Menu options are:

Reboot

Reboot to Bootloader

Boot to Download mode

Boot to Recovery Mode

If I select recovery mode, it is unable to launch and takes me back.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shawndoc:
Ok, I set it to Download mode and re-ran the RUU .exe, and it seems to have flashed properly now. So I guess I'm good. But I do have questions:

A) Why did the OTA fail multiple times with the System 7 message

B) Why did the RUU .exe wipe everything and give me the 155 failure the first time

C) Is there anything I should do/install/check to prevent problems in the future?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] jpwhre:
you did something to make status modified
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shawndoc:
Yes, but what? Every other OTA has installed fine. I haven't tried to root or mess with s-on/off. The only thing I can think of, is last time I reset my phone (due to gmail failing to get push notifications) I uninstalled a bunch of the bundled apps, but I did it using the normal apps management settings.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] schmeggy929:
You probably got all those errors due to the fact you manually tried to update the firmware/software. And according to what you wrote you currently had 2.11.651.19 tried to update with an older firmware 2.11.651.180. Second if you are stock, not rooted or s-off and previously did OTA's, why didn't you wait for the 3.41.651.4 OTA?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shawndoc:
Re-read my first post, it was the OTA that was failing to install with the System 7 error, which then led me to try installing manually.

The OTA is a two part OTA. First it installs 2.11.651.180 and then it installs 3.41.651.4. See here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m9-sprint/news/

It was 2.11.651.180 OTA that was giving me the original error message.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] schmeggy929:
Gotcha, the 2.11.651.180 was the pre-MM update then the MM full OTA. Yes it is weird you were getting those error on a OTA. Even the RUU shouldn't have lead to an error as well. You still having problem or everything ok now?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shawndoc:
Yup, all good now. Forcing the phone into download mode and performing the upgrade took. Thanks.
