I am reposting this because I posted it as a reply in the wrong forum. Hope this is of help to you all.

Sooooo... To fix the write problem in 4.4.2 - which I am still running, I took the plunge today. I am running the SM-P900 running 4.4.2

1. I downloaded the KINGROOT apk (NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_xda_release_2016_03_30 _105243.apk 8.5mb)

downloaded the file from http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=17662

referenced in this thread http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461

2. Installed it and let it do its thing

3. Downloaded and installed RootChecker Basic

4. Ran the RootChecker and it came back as properly rooted.

5. Downloaded and instaslled the NextApp SDFix

6. Ran the NextAppSDFix to change the settings (in \system\etc\permissions\platform.xml)

7. It made the changes and left a file named platform.xml.original-pre-sdfix in the same directory

8. Rebooted to make the changes go into effect.

9. Tested Total Commander and ES File Explorer and both have access to write

10. Being the un-trusting soul that I am, I uninstalled Trusty and Kingroot

11. Rebooted

12. Tested Total Commander and ES File Explorer and both have access to write

13. Even ran Greenify to check to see if any remains of kingroot is still around - nothing

14. I am NO LONGER ROOTED - but I have full permissions to the external SD - AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FROM THE VERY G*%DD#$% BEGINNING.

YOU HEAR THAT? GOOGLE ANDROID "development team" -- YEAH THATS RIGHT - YOU MORONS CAUSED US ALL KINDS OF TROUBLE BY TAKING AWAY THE WRITE OPTION. MORONS.

....calm......whoosaahh......whooosaaahh.....

So there. Its done. All is right with the world again

So now we wait for any gremlins that may show up....

Well, it is day three. Had some random reboots, mostly because of google play. I unloaded it back to factory. Turned on Developer mode and shut off the three screen multipliers. System seems stable and a little more snappy.

And I love the ability of ALL apps being able to properly write to the SD card. Boneheads at android.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
hello

i have just bought my 1st amazon fire tv device,a fire stick manufacture date march 16 2016

and i am trying to follow a (probably outdated) guide from 2014 from AFTVnews

for avoiding update during initial setup

also i am using open DNS ,outside blocking

but the guide does not work

i see that this guide keeps on being suggested for people to use recently but has anyone ever confirmed if this guide is even still working on new fire tv sticks?

because i can not get to the registration screen no matter what i do

i have followed the guide to the letter about 100 times now, all it does is hang on the checking for updates screen and then it goes back to the error message screen every single time

it hangs at checking for updates for a really long time, like an hour

then it goes to the error screen , then i press the back button like the guide says and i re configure the wifi settings like the guide says and then hit connect ,then when it says connection successful i pull the ethernet cable out of the back of my router,the one going to my modem , before it gets to checking for updates

then it says checking for updates and hangs there for like an hour , then it just goes back to the error screen and i press the back button and start the process all over again

is there is any way out of this loop?

i think that this guide is just outdated and that this method has not been tested recently for the fire tv stick specifically

because i follow it exactly and get the same result every time

anyone know what i am doing wrong, if anything or if this guide even still works anymore and on current devices?

can anyone with a brand new stick(not fire tv 1 or 2) confirm that this still works or not?

because i have not been able to find a single account of anyone doing this and getting it to work

i have just wasted and entire weekend on this BS

regretting my purchase and wishing i just bought an android box,

i really wanted to get into this scene but these extremely poorly written and outdated guides have got me so frustrated and discouraged that i am just about to say F it and return this thing to the store and go buy an android box instead

it's just not worth the aggravation and waste of time
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
this device is a Fing piece of $hit, how can anyone deal with this $hit?

it paired with the remote instantly on 1st use, but after i unplugged it it will not pair, the 1st time i turned it on after unplugging it

it took 15 minutes to pair with the remote, the second time, the 3rd time unplugged it it paired in like 5 minutes, the 4th time i unplugged it and now when i turn it on it will not pair with the remote at all after an hour, i took out the batteries, put in new ones, i put the remote right up to the stick , i press the home button briefly, i hold it down have i tried everything and this damn thing will not pair at all now i just opened it 2 days ago ,says made in mid march 2016

F this device and F this scene i am out , returning this steaming pile of dog $hit and going to order a android box what god damn piece of $hit this thing is , how do you people deal with this $hit, every Fing time you turn it off the remote will not pair again

these devices are pure garbage

this is the worst product i have ever bought

Have you tried using the steps in the Can't Pair a Remote or Game Controller guide? I am waiting on the [MENTION=3991724]rbox[/MENTION] release of Fire OS 5 for the 1st Gen Fire TV Stick and can not test this out for now as far as rooting the device.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
yes i did all of that i am just trying to pair the remote that came with it an it does not pair it worked right away the 1st time but one i unplugged it the 1st time it was nothing but problems from then on

also it keeps saying that i'm not using the amazon power supply when i am using it is this normal?

i think this thing is defective
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjbxx:
No. That is not normal as I've never seen that message on my 4 Fire TV devices. Just exchange it and hopefully you'll have better results trying to root a Fire TV Stick.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjbxx:
I'm a bit confused. Is your Fire TV Stick rooted now?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdroid666:
no it is unrooted on 5.0.5

i just used adb to block updates

it's brand new i was just trying to get past the initial setup without updating so i can root it in the future when rbox releases a pre rooted custom rom for it

but it would not go past the error screen and get to the registration screen

then it rebooted and went straight to checking for updates which it had done a few times before but this time it went to the registration screen after checking for updates, it usually just hung on that screen for about an hour and went back to the error screen no matter what i did

since it went to checking for updates right after i turned it on and pressed play without me configuring the network settings and DNS setting i did not put in the open DNS settings, so i don't know if remembers them from previous boots when i did enter them

so i am wondering if it not connecting through open DNS is what finally let me get to the registration screen

like if it has something in the FW that detects weather or not a proxy like open DNS is being used when it gets to connection successful and then it tells the device hey do not let this go to registration if a proxy is being used or if the update domains are blocked through open DNS

but then again i did have it go to checking updates a few other times at boot and i did not configure the wifi and DNS settings and it still hung on checking for updates and kicked back to error screen every single time

i don't what made it finally work but it was getting really frustrating, especially with the length of time it hung on the checking for updates screen

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Hello.

My motoG 2nd gen just passed the warranty date about 2 months ago. I'm on marshmallow 6.0, and bootloader is currently locked are running stock.

Yesterday I rebooted my phone for the first time in about 1 month. Upon startup, after the moto boot screen, a box popped up with "Android is starting.... Optimizing app xx of XXX...."

I let the apps optimization take its course, (about 15-20 minutes) immediately afterwards the screen turns black. Not off black, but backlight is on kind of black. Eventually after 5 minutes it reboots, and continues the same cycle over and over and over.

I let it do it overnight, uncharged, and eventually the battery died. I let it charge completely, started up the phone, deleted cache partition, but still the same problem.

I will attempt to wipe the phone from the recovery option, and hopefully that fixes it.

My question is

a) IS there any way to access the internal storage of phone via usb connected to my laptop while in bootloader and extract some important files and photos I did not get a chance to backup...

b) I plan on unlocking bootloader and rooting now that my warranty is done, but if I cannot get the phone running properly with the wipe/restore option, do I have to flash stock factory firmware before unlocking, rooting, and flashing something like CM?

Please be patient with me. I'm not computer illiterate, just very inexperienced with this stuff. Any tips or advice is greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Did you find any troubles, i belive i read about a data fix flash and some other things that wont work, i definitely want to try it because i love themes and unfortunately ROMS not even Marshmallow Stock (cyanogenmod has own themes) could be able to access to samsung themes so its a good suggestion thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] MatroxD:
If there is anything, I'm not seeing it to be honest.. It's a pretty amazing Rom.. And I applied the data fix successfully. What is the issue with the data fix supposed to be?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Reminon:
I second the kyubi rom with textra as a mms replacement. If it has overclock it would be perfect.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] EdrickMG:
Oh no trouble just people who forget about flash it could run into troubles but if you follow correctly and flash it I don't think there is any trouble at all,

Jasmine roms suggest a "Turning Kernel tool" call kernel adiutor from Google Play for some people experiencing troubles with emotion kernel, if any devs out there or themers of roms could tune kernels could modified emotion to overclock or either fix emotion to run smoother
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] MatroxD:
Yeah, I'm not having any issues either.. Lol, just having issues with getting that viper driver installed.. Lol, do you have a link? And the version, etc? I installed the free busybox, but it's saying it isn't correct?

And ahhh. I see on the data fix . Yes,I just installed the rom, cleared the cache, then immediately installed the data fix...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] EdrickMG:
There is a fix on viper.... Driver is not fully compatible you need to modified system/ with a Explorer but... I belive someone on s7 forum did a flashable workaround, I did it old style way modifying with a root Explorer but a friend of mine told me that the flashable fix work fine without doing all washy washy moves ..

[MENTION=5129753]MatroxD[/MENTION] I was having the same issue on Jasmine ROM. This worked for me to get the driver installed. Go to your Super SU app then go to settings scroll down to Mount Namespace Seperation and UNcheck the box and reboot. Also make sure you have busybox installed. I still can't get it to work but at least my driver is installed now. I think my problem is trying to remember how to set up my music player. I use Poweramp and I remember from my S5 days there are certain thins to do in settings on Poweramp.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
I've been battling this for years now and am looking to the professionals for some help. I have been experiencing memory leaks associated with Android System (system_server) on 5.0, 5.1 and 6.0. I am using Cyanogenmod on a Samsung Galaxy S4. I can reproduce the issue after a clean flash with my normal application usage. After about a day or two, I can see system_server consuming over 300MB of RAM. Eventually the device starts swapping (kswapd0) and gets extremely slow and laggy. Applications will start crashing from the OOM killer. The only work around I've found to this is reboot the device.

I am fairly proficient with Linux and was hoping someone can point me to some useful tools to troubleshoot this. I would like to figure out what the root cause is. Anything I can grep from dmesg or logcat? Any commands I can run from adb to collect information? Any apps that can help analyze this over time? Anyone else experiencing this issue?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
System_server is tied to Android System or Android OS?

Looking at my memory statistics, Android OS used about 300MB ram over the last hours, while Android System used only 88MB.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
Android System is system_server. Currently mine is at 385MB after 42 hours of uptime.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
/bump

Still looking for assistance. Issue is reproducible and happening every couple days.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Tabula rasa.

Even after changing roms, it appears that some residue remains.

I would go for a complete clean slate. Meaning flash stock rom with a pit file, which should entirely wipe the phone and everything on it, then you can go about and root it, and flash a custom rom again.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
This is normal practice for me. I wipe /system, /cache, internal storage and dalvik cache.

Any other ideas?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Flash stock using a PIT file. This will repartition the memory and completely wipe everything. You can't go much cleaner than that.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
This offers no advantage over a format. If you format a partition, there are no files present.

Any thoughts on troubleshooting the issue? Any tools to debug the memory leaks? Any useful data in dmesg or logcat?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
just looked at my own usage, android system shows 324 mb (I'm on AOSP 6.0.1 by JDCTeam). android isn't that efficient ! maybe others can pop by and list their own stats to show it isn't that unusual...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Yesterday I attempted to update my modem and bootloader, but in vain, because Odin kept giving me error messages.

Then, all of a sudden, it worked.

And all I did was: I kept disconnecting and reconnecting the cable and restarting Odin until it finally worked somehow.

So yeah, logic can fly right out the window with modern technology.

And to go into 3mel's comment, my android system shows a usage of 73 MB over the course of 1 day.

That being said, I do reboot my phone twice a day (switching batteries) so maybe that has something to do with the low memory usage.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
BINGO!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
Glad to hear I'm not the only one with this issue. Does your phone get laggy when this happens? And a reboot fixes it?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
I run my phone underclocked most of the time around 1.2 or 1.3 so sometimes while downloading and surfing it can slow down or get overwhelmed, but it's never permanent. if anything I'm happier with my phone than I've ever been thanks to JDCTeam and _bon_bon's tweaks...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccoager:
How often are you rebooting?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
maybe once a week.

Alright so I recently got the lg k7 from metro pcs and decided to root it. I rooted it using kingroot and then used supersu me so that I could install supersu instead of the one used for kingroot. It worked and then asked me to reboot my phone but when it started up again, it just stayed frozen on the metro pcs logo! I removed the battery and went into recovery mode, (by clicking the down volume+power button) but when it starts up again, it still stays stuck on the metro logo. Im assuming it is stuck on a bootloop? I also believe it is soft brick because i can still access the download mode, although it did take a while as i had to find the dang drivers b/c my computer would not recognize it.

I tried using the LG Mobile Support Tool to try to unbrick it, but it says that it already has the latest firmware installed! I cant do an update recovery either!

Sadly the 7 day exchange and return has ended and I cannot replace it, so is there any other way that anyone knows to unbrick the phone?
