[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichijoe:
With all do respect as someone who has managed to root his AFTV at unbox time. What exactly IS the benefit of rooting the AFTV2? And, no this is not a rhetorical question.

One of the big hopes I've had about rooting the AFTV2 was to get Google PlayStore, and Gapps working. Well if the ever had, it seems that I too may have missed that Boat. As they do NOT seem to work under 5.2.1.1.

The only other reason why I might have wanted Root, pairing a Sixaxis Dualshock 3 Controller with my AFTV2. 'Cause I'm too cheep for an Amazon Controller. Doesn't work either, and in fact will cause the AFTV2 to crash, and reboot itself.

As for AdAway, (My prime motivation for rooting anything!), well I've yet to find a use for it. It doesn't block anything in the Fire Launcher. Not that I think it should anyway. But nothing I've ran into yet even has any in-app advertising.

Side loading Kodi never really required root, and has otherwise worked fine.

IMHO root on the AFTV2 is a tad overrated, for all you can do with it, or actually what you still can't do with it.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPeach:
Well as noted, what I care about is simply mounting a network share. While somewhat interesting, your comment adds nothing to this particular thread.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylercheribini:
I want to be able to add a usb Ethernet adapter. The fire stick 2 allows usb devices to be added natively. Ive contacted the Fire tv support team about a possible update to allow fire stick first gen to allow this without root, they said they would take it under consideration so probably no.

[MENTION=5531115]MrPeach[/MENTION]

Surly you could add a network share from inside Kodi or? I kinda fail to see the point of it outside of Kodi otherwise.

[MENTION=7775739]tylercheribini[/MENTION]

Well I could imagine why some people might want to have two Ethernet Ports. I find little use for mine while on 802.11ac. But at least this is concept I can work with.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylercheribini:
The Fire Stick has no ethernet port, it must be rooted in order to add one.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichijoe:
Sorry, missed that bit. Of course it (Firestick), doesn't.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3ch42:
Any news? Had an update mysteriously occur, moving it up to the latest firetv update. For some time, have been stuck without a solution. For list of what doesn't work at this date, neither the latest kingo root on pc with an a to a cable or the kingroot app work. Hoping sometime soon one of the remaining vulnerabilities is taken advantage of soon.

I've locked down my network in the meantime. Would recommend anybody that

does

care about root in the same boat as me do the same until a solution is found..
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichijoe:
Sound advice... And BTW I do care about root. I just question the point of it on this Device. Which to my chagrin includes a bit more then the AFTV2... lol!

And, I concede their use cases aren't mine. And, at the moment the things I'd like to do on my AFTV2, which would otherwise require root as well. (i.e. PlayStore, and Dualshock 3 Support) have not brought me much joy even with root. So though I probably could have been less of a **** about it. I was generally interested in why others were so keen to root it. And I got my answer.

The only good news is that it's not a done deal with the FireOS, and eventuality another exploit shall be found, but you'll just have to hang on till then. Yeah sucks I know.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3ch42:
Lol. Yes it does suck.

I probably shouldn't have responded in that way either. It's hard to tell someone's intent based on a few lines in a thread. Didnt mean to come off bh.

Root has been good, was nice to be able to autostart the Kodi/spmc app and for me, using droidmote. that's a really great mouse keyboard app along with a ssh server and BusyBox... But then again, since I updated to the latest rooted ROM(5.2.1.1) in my other box, I've lost the autostart and some of the other bonuses. As much as I hate to do it, will have to start troubleshooting options maybe downgrade.

Til there's an option....
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clarke.hackworth:
The Dirty Cow linux exploit was recently released (last week). This should allow root on the newer firmware versions (5.2.1.1, etc). Since it was just released last week people are working on it. This thread discusses the progress http://xdaforums.com/general/security/dirty-cow-t3484879

and here is a post of someone who claims to have it working

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69299542&postcount=39

I am working on getting this going on my AFTV2 with version 5.2.1.0.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylercheribini:
Cool, looks promising, thanks.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichijoe:
I know that Android, is kind of a fork of Linux. But, isn't that kinda the point? Are we even sure that this 'ploit affects Android?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infernalshade:
I'm in the same boat as you guys, i also wait for a 5.2.1.1 root :)

In my case i want to install the root-version of the moonlight streaming app which has native mouse support so i can finally play mouse/keyboard games on my home cinema :) (The non-root version is kinda buggy... scaling-problems, stuttering, no off-screen-movment, and so on..)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drice72:
The reason I am looking for root is to be able to run the firestick on a VPN, which requires root.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clarke.hackworth:
Yes the exploit effects Android.

FYI, the issue is a vulnerability in how the Linux kernel handles memory / files. Android is just a specific set of applications running on Linux, so it is exploitable. I have used the exploit to modify files in /system and /etc on my FireTV running 5.2.1.1.

Starting with FireTV 5.2.1.0 SELinux is enabled which is an extra layer of protection. It is good from a security stand point -- it helps protects your device from malicious apps, etc. However in our case the "attacker" is the owner of the device ... us. People are working on bypassing SELinux protections, and making progress.

See this blog for some really technical info on the current status: https://v-e-o.blogspot.com/2016/10/way-to-android-init-with-cve-2016-5195.html
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3adpool:
Forgive my ignorance, but what is vpn used for on the ftv aside from accessing content from different countries like Netflix and to possibly make it safer for one to stream certain content?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichijoe:
Well IIRC... One could set up a VPN, to log back into one Network (e.g. Network Storage), from an outside source (i.e. a Hotel Room), to push, and pull Files p, at will. But I think you managed to cover most of the "uses" of a VPN already.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPeach:
Emulator ROMs

As I implied in my original post - emulators generally do not support accessing network shares (where my extensive ROM collection is) directly. This leaves copying ROMs to the Fire TV itself to use them or copying my ROM collection to an external USB drive, neither option of which I find acceptable.

I want to access my extensive ROM collection directly via a SMB mapped folder on my Synology NAS, which research has informed me is only possible on a rooted device.

This isn't about Kodi, an extra ethernet port or any of the other stuff other people have mentioned in this thread.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NealJ777:
My ZenWatch 2 has Marshmallow (6.0.1 - Android Wear 1.5.0.2923607) installed. I noticed that whenever I remove the watch from the charger that the remote shutter app launches. This may have just started in August (after I switched from a Moto X to the LG G4). I don't want to block the app on the watch because I may want to use the remote shutter. Is there a way to make it not launch this app when removing the watch from the charging cable?
[Samsung Gear S2] messiahfreedom:
1. Does the version that t-mobile is selling come with the speaker that will allow me to talk to someone on the phone using the watch?

2. If I get a non-samsung phone, will the above feature work with that device?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thakyZ:
I am having an issue with the notification panel ever since I upgraded my phone to Marshmallow. The problem is that when I change the quick settings buttons around, after a short while, it would just reset it's self. I haven't had issues with this while my phone wasn't rooted. I am not using a custom ROM. I did however had to download a ROM from SamMobile because I have soft bricked my phone once or twice. So, all I did to root my phone was to put TWRP on it as a custom recovery and flash SuperSU. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Kernel is awesome, highest OC in both clusters. Stable, no freezes, no reboots, no blue screens, nothing!

Antutu score is 84k on darkness governor and 85k on performance governor! Not much difference between those two governors, the darkness gives same performance as performance governor but darkness gives more battery backup!

It even has double tap to wake features!

[Note 7 Accessories] UserNameComesHere:
Okay here goes.... This is my first ever review on........anywhere for anything...

Before I begin, let me say that I don't like to spend a lot of money when it comes to cases or any other protection for my phones....I have 1 transparent TPU case for my phone... 1 tempered glass... and just recently I ordered a DBrand Skin for the back of my phone...

I initially bought the phone when it was launched, the phone came with an original screen protector (center only, not edge to edge) stuck on it, but I'm not a very big fan of screen protectors. Despite my itchy fingers wanting to remove it I let it be, and in the meanwhile, I had ordered a curved tempered glass from Ali Express. Thinking to myself that no way this will be curved and it will be like how most of the tempered glass are for curved screens but I still decided to waste my on it...

Incidentally a couple of days prior to the delivery I had to return the device for replacements so I kept it aside once delivered. A couple of days back I got my "safe" Note7 and the original screen protector was not stuck properly, there was dust particle bubbles and it was not in the center. So I thought I would finally get a chance to "unbox" the curved tempered glass (if there was such a thing). And to my amazement it was CURVED! :eek:

This is what the box looks like....

As you can see the tempered glass covers almost 98% of the screen which with my case makes it almost seamless protection. The home button hides away insides due to the thickness of the glass.

The cut outs for the camera, speakers, iris scanner and the home button is exact so there has to be no room for error. Also, something that I didn't like, the adhesive is only in the center of the tempered glass so the edges and curves look like they are peeling off but that's how it is...

Now I have been using the tempered glass for a couple of days now. And I have realized that the screens sensitivity has gone for a toss especially with the keyboard. I don't know why but I haven't notice the sensitivity issues when playing games but while using the stylus and the keyboard it is greatly affected. At first I thought it might be Samsung's default keyboard so I installed Google Keyboard and the issues still persisted. SO YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED....

Overall, I am surprised that it is a curved screen but I am going to remove it because of the sensitivity issues.
[Note 7 Accessories] jholger:
Is there any "rainbow effect" when you press screen?
[Note 7 Accessories] UserNameComesHere:
No there isn't.... but i removed it and the adhesive is only on the edges and not on the complete glass as I previously thought it would be.

@ mods... please merge this thread with >> http://xdaforums.com/note-7/accessories/hunt-adhesive-tempered-glass-protector-t3449697
[Note 7 Accessories] svnelvnn:
ALL screens without adhesive will have a loss of touch sensitivity. There is a layer of air in between the glass and the screen. With nothing between your touch and the screen, of course your touches will not be registered unless you press hard on it. Worse yet, the glass is touching some parts of the screen (rainbow effect) and messing up touch accuracy

There is no solution for this right now except for some non-full coverage glass protectors, but they look so awful. I have been using it without a protector for about 2 weeks now. I treat my phone with utmost care and only put it in my pocket and nothing else goes in this pocket. There is a very faint scratch on it. It requires very accurate lighting and concentration to look for it but it's there. It is probably not a scratch on the glass but the oleophobic coating, but a scratch is a scratch. But I just can't bring myself to use these subpar screen protectors that lowers the screen quality so much
[Note 7 Accessories] vagelis:
After trying and regretting 2 glass supposedly full coverage protectors, I ended with Samsung's original film protector. It certainly does not sacrifice touch sensitivity, and is the closest to bare glass I've found.

And suddenly has been no sign, I thought I had been blocked by the company, paid to release it by IMEI and I came out I was released from the factory.

Entering the configuration I get that radio is disconnected, if it can not be, nor how to activate it again.

Nor is like changing mobile bands, if not by changing the official ROM, can not be, I have a lot of impotence in this situation.
