[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
I am glad to hear that it fixes your problem. The NB1 firmware (cooked by muniz_ri) is a live saver. Keep that one. Down the line if your phone screwed up used that one to revive your phone.

Majority of bloatware are system app as such they will not show up in the app bar To remove those you need an admin rights (root) hence we need to root the phone.

To remove the bloatware there are many bloatware remove apps. However they are not written to the specific phone and OS version as such you need to be very careful when you are using them.

I use titanium backup pro to either freeze or remove the bloatware one by one. You can find the list of bloatware for each version on the net. Another way is to install the lean custom rom.

If you want to upgrade to Lollipop you can do it. If somethings screws up you can use that NB1 to come back to Kitkat.

The latest lollipop for the sgh-i337 is OK2 but OK2 gave me some problem that I could not live with it so I stay at OC4.

If you want to upgrade to OK2 or OC4 do let me know. I will point you the guide and necessary files.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] amberblossom:
CyanogenMod

I guess I will pass on lollipop if there was a problem with it. I looked around for a rom and saw CyanogenMod. It looked pretty good but they discontinued the installer. Can I download it on my PC, move it to the ext card on the S4 and install it from there? Without any changes to my current configuration of the S4? Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
I did not say lollipop has a problem, what I meant was I had some problem with lollipop OK2 as such I stay with lollipop OC4.

I took it as you are talking about the CyanogenMoD for the locked bootloader .

You can install that one. You need to install the safestrap first to flash that rom, as mentioned on that link. However, the link also mentioned that you can not make a phone call with that rom as such they stop developing that rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] amberblossom:
Oh, I didn't understand. I think I would like to try to get up to lollipop. Can you point me to the kernel for that? Also, I have been trying to install CyanogenMod but am running into roadblocks. I think I might have succeeded finally because I now have a yellow triangle and a notice about non-AT&T system software (with a tiny notice - secure fail: kernel). I also had a difficult time installing TWRP as the installer was asking for a file format that the installer didn't download. From what I gather, CyanogenMod looks like a good all around OS and was easy to install when the installer was in play. But if there is another that would suffice but is easier to install, I think that might be a better idea. Could you suggest one?

Sorry about all these questions. I don't know why this is so difficult for me. I feel like an idiot. Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
SGH-i377 has locked bootloader as such we can not install custom recovery like TWRP or CWM. The only installers we have are safestrap and flashfire. When I was in Kit-kat I used safestrap. It is very troublesome to work with safestrap in lollipop so when I upgrade to lollipop I use falshfire instead.

I have two devices that are on cyanogen mod. I like cyanogen mod but I prefer touch-wiz rom over AOSP though.

The only cyanogen mod you can install is the one that I mentioned in my previous message. You need to use safestrap to install it.

For SGH-I337 you can only install the touch-wiz rom which are written for either safestrap or flashfire. I do not see any AOSP rom written for safestrap or flashfire.

What I did was flash NB1 via odin. root with towl root and install the flashfire. Flash the OC4 rom via flashfire and flash the OC4 bootloader via odin. After my phone boot to lollipop OC4, Installed flashfire and flash the Albe95 S6 port rom. I like to use the S6 features and that custom rom is a stable one. Do you think the process is easy enough?

To upgrade to Lollipop,

I assumed that you are back on NB1 and rooted. If not do that process first. (you mentioned that you installed the cyanogenmode)

Here is the guide telling you step by step how to install lollipop from NB1.

The guide was originally written for OC4 but when OK2 came out it was updated with OK2. So if you want to go to OK2, use the files that mentioned on the guide. If you want to go to OC4 use the file I posted below instead.

I337_OC4_Stock_Rooted_ROM.zip

I337_OC4_Stock_Rooted_Deodexed_ROM

I337_OC4_Bootloader.tar.md5

The choice between using normal and deodexed_rom is your call.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster1612:
I'm curious as to what command you used to dump the kindle data. If you used ADB's backup mechanisms, I don't see why you couldn't restore via ADB as well. If you directly ran dd (either on the device or through a shell on a computer connected to it), that's a little more complex. Also, how big are your backup files, and what partition(s) did you dump?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makishima-shougo:
Hi! I used instructions in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1818321

I found blocks of partition on my device in these paths: /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/* and /dev/block/* .They have mmcblk0* names, mmcblk0 and 13 parts, they have names mmcblk0p1-mmcblk0p13. Block mmcblk0 - largest, he contain all blocks, mmcblk0p13-user data, he also big. So I copy mmcblk0 (62,5gb) and mmcblk0p13(60,8gb) block in *.raw format directly to my PC( I have kindle with 64gb version). I scanned with the R-studio/R-Linux these blocks and i found nothing, only files and folders from usual default stock firmware. It looks like I have a new tablet from shop, all information that i have before it is gone(before it happened, my tablet was rooted, so in system folder left root checker app, and from previous google account, apps and also all that i did with system before-for example removed stock app-office ). So can you look in information that i found in last_log.txt file above. There the same date and time, when i think tablet launch factory reset itself, it contain "(null) 0" operation in each block of partitions and i think it erase permanently all my data. I think it didn’t was a usual factory reset, i think it feature was added by Amazon to reset all tablets they receive from buyers, but I didn’t know about that.

No everything is in the ROM, and always will. Your software changes stay in a user writable area, that are erased when doing a hard reset, thus leaving the original stuff in ROM.

Custom adb root boot image with chainfires adbd kernel from adbd insecure as the phones adbd.. it has a few other tweaks and a custom permissive kernel and systemless root from chainfires supersu... the rsa fingerprint doesn't pop up when you connect a computer but it can be bypassed with adb in a custom recovery and found out if you use adbd insecure and let it patch chainfires adbd kernel it makes the phone as attached device in for adb devices instead of the plain unauthorized device and vendor keys not set. ... if you use it now you get adb root access and regular root access with the su binary but due to the rsa fingerprint not popping up you have to use adbd insecure until a recovery comes out cause it bypasses rsa fingerprint.. credits to come... to use adb root access you need a custom recovery with adb... adbd insecure app... adb on you're computer.... android sdk/android studio... java... boost mobile j7 running build f3 but you can just run systemless root until a recovery comes through. You can grab systemless root from here http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j7/how-to/root-samsung-galaxy-j7-sm-j700p-t3430185

And use it with the boot image.. but i just added systemless root patches to the boot image so all you have to do is flash the boot image.

Stock boot image below incase you want to unroot and go back to stock which can be flashed in flashfire link below. You can take this boot image and use flashfire to flash the stock firmware or stock boot image and you can root or not root when you flash with flashfires inject systemless root.

One of the mods i did if youre curious but due to usb debugging being secure in newer android versions aka the rsa fingerprint having to match both on computer and phone and the fact you cant just reset the rsa key on stock cause it removes the revoke usb debugging authorization to reset the rsa fingkey and key so you dont get the full luxury of this old mod which has been around awhile and is not new... to grant root on stock firmware you need a custom recovery with adb or chainfires adbd insecure app... oh how times have changed in android...

Get Android Image Kitchen and extract it to your PC;

2. Open your_favorite_kernel.zip with 7zip and extract boot.img file to Android Image Kitchen folder;

3. Drag and Drop boot.img over unpackimg.bat. Kernel is unpacked and you will see 2 new folders - ramdisk and split_img;

4. Go to ramdisk folder and open default.prop file with text editor. This probably is not necessary but just in case change ro.secure and ro.adb.secure to 0 (zero):

Code:

ro.secure=0

ro.adb.secure=0

5. Get Chainfire's adbd Insecure v1.30, open it with 7zip, in assets folder you will see 3 .png files. Extract adbd.17.png to ramdisk\sbin folder;

6. Delete original kernel adbd file and rename adbd.17.png to adbd;

7. Go back to Android Image Kitchen folder and run repackimg.bat by just click on it. This will repack the modified kernel to image-new.img file ready for flashing;

8. Rename image-new.img to boot.img and replace the original one in your_favorite_kernel.zip by Drag and Drop in 7zip window;

9. Close 7zip, copy modified your_favorite_kernel.zip to /sdcard and flash it in recovery.

10. Enjoy ADB full root access for /system;

[Remix OS for PC] hallelouia:
Hi,

i was dying to try RemixOS 3.0.

Running a Surface Pro 3 the mere thought of booting out of secure boot mode and imposing the bright orange screen to my eyes every time i started the thing was discouraging any attempts to installing RemixOs.

Using another machine i installed RemixOS on a flash drive and notied it used the ubuntu grub2, which is signed and doesn't require secure boot disabled in order to start, and to my surprise i could boot remixOS from the flash drive without disableing secure boot on my surface pro 3.

Then booting on a flash drive on a tablet with only one USB port... not good enough for me so if i could boot to USB with secure boot maybe i can do it from hard drive, to be honest my first attempt wasn't successful using a NTFS partition to install Remix, so i tried to install it to a FAT32 partition and was surprised when the OS actually booted in secure boot mode despite two errors :

secure boot forbid loading /efi/RemixOS/exfat64.mod

secure boot forbid loading /efi/RemixOS/ntfs64.mod

i don't know what are those modules used for, as of now the OS runs fine except for the fact that double clicking on desktop icons crashes and resets the OS but this behaviour happens on all the machines i tested (surface pro 3 and my desktop computer).

[EDIT] This only happens if the icon moves when double clicking probably comes from touchpad sensitivity and the way they handle rearranging the desktop [EDIT]

TL;DR:

Found out i could boot RemixOS with secure boot ON from a USB flash drive.

Tried to do the same from hard drive.

Didn't work using NTFS.

Worked using FAT32 despite not being able to load exfat64.mod and ntfs64.mod

Questions:

Did someone actually found a way to install and run RemixOS without errors in a Secure Boot environment ?

What are exfat64.mod and ntfs64.mod used for ?

PS : touch and multitouch works fine here (i've seen people complaining about it not working, maybe for an older version)

First of all, why do you need secure boot?

[Remix OS for PC] hallelouia:
I don't need secure boot but as mentionned it just disgusts me when my surface pro boots up to an agressive orange screen with a black square in its center for the Surface logo which is what happens if i disable secure boot.

So yeah it's just cosmetic, you can also call this personnal research on secure boot.

When i was using Manjaro Linux on this same computer i learned how to sign my bootloader just so i could boot in secure boot mode.
