please any body suggest me an easy way(any way) to unlock boot loader and root my device,my ultimate wish is to root my device to remove bloatware. I searched the entire forum for a way to root my device but there are lot of conflicting opinions some say unlocked boot loader is a must for root , some threads say root is required for unlocking the boot loader,i am confused ,please give some advice by witch i can ultimately root my device

my device- ZE550KL

OS - MARSHMALLOW 6.0.1

with locked boot loader and unrooted

2GB ram

I will be grateful to you and ill be glad

I don't know if you can get root if you are on MM without fully switching to CM13.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testeraphy:
I think it's pretty "easy", it's depend from the person to person though

There's already thread to unlock BL (no relock atm), and getting root is simply flash supersu.zip

It's just my thoughts, I'm not saying you must do what I'm going to write down here, so I'm not responsible if anything happen

* You need, say TWRP, to get root, how to get TWRP? "flash" recovery right?

* flash custom img (recovery) only possible if BL unlocked, you got bootloop if still locked

* so what if we just boot to twrp? Leave that stock recovery? We don't need that unlocked BL right?

* then the problem come from supersu, default su installation on M+ come in "systemless" mode, which modifying the boot.img, as point 2 above, we can't have non-stock img flashed on locked BL

* so how about make supersu "system", it did work on L with locked BL anyway, it's not modifying any boot.img,

* you could got root w/o unlocking BL by booting twrp, and flash su in system mode

Personally I'm not able to test this, because I love breaking things :silly:

Hi all,

My one plus one bricked when updating to CM12s via OTA. Since then, I have tried everything, but I am stuck on the oneplus screen. I cannot get to recovery no matter what. Bootloader still works though

This is what I have tried

1. Flashed cm12s, cm11s via fastboot. Still didnt wake it up

2. Used the color OS+MSM8974 tool to flash color os, still stuck on the red oneplus logo

3. Used the color OS+MSM8974 tool to flash color os, then flashed cm11s, still stuck on the oneplus logo

4. Used the oneplus recovery tool, still stuck on the oneplus logo.

In all this scenarios, I cannot access recovery, I even flashed TWRP, and still cannot access recovery.

Bootloader is unlocked.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toontje123:
My SM-N915FY reboots appx. 10 times per day. It's a stock phone, no root so no custom roms or mods. I had this phone since 5.1.1 and the phone is now at 6.0.1 patch level 1 from June 1, 2016. All upgrades have been done automatically OTA by either Samsung or my provider. It's been rebooting ever since i have it.

Questions:

- Anybody else having this problem?

- Is there a way to find out what i causing the reboots?

- If i root my phone, would i be able to troubleshoot this better?

- In case i root my device, is there a list of Samsung bloatware that is know to be safe to remove? My aim is to remove everything that might cause these reboots.

Thanks,

Ton.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matzeena:
Hi...

Have you tried factory resetting the phone from recovery. This solves a host of problems usually accompanied with OTA updates...Ensure you make a back up of your data...before doing this.

Cheers
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toontje123:
Good tip. Never tried that. Will let you know how it goes.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toontje123:
Well, not good. I am now stuck at the Samsung activation screen. I enter my (correct) details and i get a "Processing Failed". I guess i am now down to rooting and install a custom ROM that doesn't have this crappy Samsung stuff.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matzeena:
Did you clear Cache and Dalvik cache from recovery...after factory reset....Do not select "Send diagnostic data" radio button during the activation process...

Good luck..
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toontje123:
Yeah, i just had to remember my Samsung account. Now i am back in business. My phone is like new. New as in using battery like h*ll. Thinking about flashing a ROM that increases my battery life. Any suggestions?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matzeena:
Flashing a Custom ROM is easy. The tricky part is rooting and installing custom recovery. Since you are already on the latest Android version, you can disable any app that is causing battery drain..after rooting. Here is a useful guide...

BTW, after the factory reset the phone keeps rebooting itself.... Problem still exists.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mommojo:
Reboots

Well I am in the same boat with my edge. I am currently using it as a remote! I have booted into safe mode...nothing. Wiped the cache and hard reset it twice. I have never rooted a phone but it seems like that will be my only option. It doesn't seem that easy to do. How do you find the roms that work with your phone?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toontje123:
You can find ROMs in the Galaxy Note Edge section of this forum. I changed my Note Edge for a Galaxy J7 and it's faster, more modern and has a battery life 10 times longer than my Note Edge. Ah, and no reboots.

No more Note Edge for me.

Fake. This has already been brought up.

It slide 2 lock with a skin and a little modification.

Look at his left thumb. when his right thumb presses down.

Also you cant use finger print reading software on you ppc.

The screen is not capable of reading fingers.

If you put you finger on you T.V all you would get is a smudge. Same thing on ppc.

if anyone knows how to edit the image of the unlock portion of batterystatus. Than the fingerprint would be a piece of cake to put in
[E 2015 General] ayush rao:
Note: I Haven't developed this, I just found this and thought it would help if I shared it......

I've noticed there isn't a thread for ViPER4Android on the Stock ROM........... Installing ViPER4Android on custom ROMs like CM, AOKP, AICP, Turbo, etc. is really easy. Whereas installing it on a Stock ROM is really difficult....

So here are the steps on how to do so:

1. Wipe Cache & Dalvik in recovery

2. Then install the 4 zips in the given order.

3. Wipe Cache & Dalvik again

4. Reboot

5. Then install the update apk, SELinux Mode Changer and busybox installer apks

6. Set SELinux to Permissive and install busybox

7. Install the drivers through the ViPER4android app and reboot

8. Make sure SELinux is Premissive

9. Profit$$$$$

You should definitely check it out. And it's totally compatible with stock 6.0.

V4A and Atoms works wonderfully together. It's like sounds you've never heard before. :good:

Maybe I'm exaggerating. :p

Hi

I rooted my Redmi 2 and installed CWM recovery then install [ CM 13 ]

it worked with me but had an annoying problem :silly:

the system reboot itself randomly ! every few minutes.

I tried to install another ROM [ Resurrection Remix ] using and didn't work

I tried two different recovery [CWM] and [TWRP] and the problem still happening

What you advise me to do

Please help me :(

Regards
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Lennoard:
I'm facing a problem almost like that.

Searched a bit, downloaded the kernel log and found that is a kernel panic caused by the modem crashing (Whenever a turn on the mobile data of the SIM card operator X) (No, doesn't matter if it is on slot 1 or 2)

So every time I reboot I gotta quickly disable the mobile data and disable the kernel panic so I can use the phone normally

With your super user terminal

try {

sysctl -w vm.panic_on_oom=0

sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_oops=0

sysctl -w kernel.panic=0

}
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] ObadaKh:
Could you please explain how to disable the mobile data and disable the kernel panic ?
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Lennoard:
I'm disabling the mobile data just because it is causing the kernel panic

Soooooo, in order to enable the mobile data safely, I must disable the kernel panic (Which actually does the reboot)

To do so:

Install a terminal emulator (Play Store)

Open it, type su hit enter

Grant root

Type these lines in sequence and hit enter in every

sysctl -w vm.panic_on_oom=0 hit enter

sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_oops=0 hit enter

sysctl -w kernel.panic=0 hit enter

You don't need to reboot.

My wife's one year old Redmi 2 Prime seems to have developed the same problem as OP's. It reboots randomly. Tried different ROMs numerous times as well as Fastboot flashing clearing everything. Didn't help. Then found this thread and tried L Speed with "disable kernel panic" option enabled. Phone keeps rebooting.

Wife noticed several times that back of the phone got quite hot with no clear reason. She never plays games etc. Just browses the internet on wifi/4G and messaging. I wonder if it's a hardware problem and it's only good for trash bin. Or maybe something can be done with it.

Hi all, newbie here. I just got permission to unlock my bootloader and I want to try out some good stuffs now. There are pretty good Roms here and I just want to know which is overall the most stable one. Also, camera is very important to me, how are the cameras in various Roms compared to Miui camera?

Go with blissrom

Yup,the most stable but even at beta stages ,you can go with blissrom cm 13 based ,it doesnt lock your bootloader again after flashing with twrp ,to the my extent of knowledge.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] gagan7:
XOSP works great too. i have been using it for a week now, and i haven't encountered any issues what so ever. Micro GApps, Viper-Fx, Xposed Modules everything works just smooth.

Battery drain might seem like an issue as coming from xiaomi (which unnecessarily restricts background activity) but apps like Greenify/ Amplify does a great job in redistricting it. It's not perfect as battery drain could be reduced and sometime it reboots when tweaking with camera settings (on very rare occasions), but it does the job.

Sorry guys, but still not manage to unlock bootloader. Tried couple of times and every time it stuck at 50% - could not verify device, account is different bla bla...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] gagan7:
Try the Unofficial Method. I myself was having the same issue and the unofficial method worked just fine for me.

Yes you need to be a little bit extra careful during and even after unlocking via Unofficial method, or when switching back to Miui rom, but it should all come in ease once you get a heck of it and start understanding your phone better.

If you need i could send you a link for the unofficial unlocking method. :)

[Lenovo A6000/Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] GokulNC:
Note:

This is not bootanimation, this is the splash screen (the 'Lenovo' boot logo which is displayed when device is switched ON)

This is for Lenovo A6000 & A6000 Plus Only..

For other devices, please send me your splash.img so that I can create a tool for you too.

Requirements:

1. Rooted Lenovo A6000 or A6000 Plus (any ROM)

2. Optional: Terminal Emulator app or Custom Recovery or atleast working fastboot in computer

3. You're proceeding at your own risk.

STEPS to create splash.img:

Before proceeding, make sure fastboot is setup properly in your computer (just incase something goes wrong)..

1. Download & Extract this in computer: Lenovo_A6000_Splash_Maker.zip

2. Make sure you have a 720x1280 resolution picture.

3. Now rename your picture as logo.png or logo.jpg (according to its format) & replace it inside "pics" folder of the extracted folder.

(Similarly you can also change fastboot.png if you wish to change the picture of fastboot)

4. Finally, run the 'Create_Logo.bat' to create splash.img , which you can find inside the "output" folder.

STEPS to flash splash.img:

Optional: To backup your original splash.img:

dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash of=/sdcard/splash.img

(Not necessary though.. You may get it from the stock firmware itself.)

Now, Choose any one easy method:

a. To flash from recovery:

Transfer the flashable_splash.zip to your device and flash from TWRP or CWM or Philz or any other custom recovery.

b. To flash from Terminal Emulator:

Transfer the splash.img to your device's Internal Storage, Open Terminal Emulator & enter the following to flash it:

su
dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash

c. To flash from Fastboot mode:

fastboot flash splash splash.img

Note:

Incase something goes wrong or device doesn't bootup, flash the stock splash.img from custom recovery or fastboot.

1. [MENTION=6319272]GokulNC[/MENTION] (myself ;)) who wrote this script

2. [MENTION=6991820]mshoaib7[/MENTION] who provided the stock splash.img of A6000

(Or was it the old one that worked right?

It's actually a confusion between bgr24 & rgb24 color formats.

I couldn't find which one, because the stock logo was black & white and there was no way I could decipher from that)

So I'm waiting for your reply ;)
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] sasukay:
I used the new one. You could've figured that out with the time stamp in my post.

And btw, I think its due to some kind of problem in converting jpg to png. I just opened the 720x1280 jpg image in Paint and saved it as png
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] GokulNC:
And is it working now correctly??

BTW, your pic exactly has to be 720x1280.

Yours wasn't (Anyway, that doesn't have anything to do with color)
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] sasukay:
I used only the new one, which doesn't work for me. And, my image was in 720x1280 only
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] GokulNC:
Okay, I've updated the zip again (to the old one, ie, bgr24 color format)
