Dear fellow XDA-users,

I am not here for a pissing contest. Expressing frustration, yes!

@jhedfors

"It was the reasonable and right choice. So you are required to flash a zip file ONCE. I am not seeing a burden here.... "

True, the method is straightforward... flashing a zip. Burden, yes, is neglibible. Right choice, maybe, for users who run apps that won't run with root!

But, this is a big deal... communication could have been better and the order in which things happened... removing root, availability of zip, etc. Anyway, problem is solved!

@zzz2002

"I agree that in the long run and for the average user is probably the right choice."

People at XDA are more than average users, but, there are apps that won't run and I guess (I guess) people want CM/LOS without root -- is this now a new class of users?

"However, I think they should have left root avail until they had all the pieces ready. "

Absolutely, thank you!

@Potato997

Thanks for the insight into another ROM

[MENTION=6040719]RockyTV[/MENTION]

"Well, they kept saying since the builds started: "there's no su.zip yet, we are working on it". It must be quite stressing for the developers to read comments like these every time (yes, people keep joining their IRC channel and asking about the flashable root), so, just wait. You've waited almost a month to get your hands on official Lineage builds, you can wait a little longer to get root."

I am not on IRC. They did not keep saying "no root". Yes, I am the idiot (totally my fault) for flashing a ROM with no zip and *****ing about it. I could have waited but the communication (of no root) was buried in the instructions. Anyway, problem is solved!

[MENTION=2316575]XC3N[/MENTION]

"how quick are people to feel entitled to something which didn't even exist last week. You will get your package. you will flash it once, and hopefully you will shut up about it.

How short sighted do you have to be to want the burden of unrooting on regular users? rooting is not for everyone, it's perfectly OK that it's not the default option. I wish the root package was available, but it will be soon. Heck, my phone's build wasn't even available yesterday.

Just chill =P"

Well, with you I disagree the most :)

entitled...? I am grateful for all the hardwork that goes into what the developers do.

Didn't exist? What LOS? Root? There was a choice not to flash, build your own with SU or whatever else where if the communication was clearer, you don't just flash a rootless rom and end up with root requiring apps not working.

Build for my phone was available sooner (lucky me, right) and I flashed and ended up with apps not working. So for example, I can't use File manager when there is another problem at hand that needs solving. Frustration... you bet! I am ready to STFU now as problem solved!

[MENTION=3831816]alexiuss[/MENTION]

Thank you, thank you and thank you!

***

Having realized how important having root is, it good idea to know and have an alternative method!
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] RockyTV:
If I recall correctly a few days before starting the builds, they said the ROM wouldn't be rooted by default.

EDIT: they actually did. The blog post from January 21.

The Lineage blog exists for a reason, and it is to let people know what is going on with LineageOS. Communication does exist, but people forget these channels exist and think it is inexistent. Whenever a new blog post is written, it gets shared on Twitter, Facebook and Google+.

You do. You can flash any SuperSU or any other.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] goodflood:
Yes, they did mention no root and flashable zip.

No, I did not forget about the blog... I am subscribed to it. I forgot (or misunderstood, I don't know) that they are stopping root right away!

The think about root is a big deal... it should have been a post in itself. 2 lines... that is all that's there. I understand they are busy, but still. Further, nice to see ARM, ARM64 and X86 (covers everyone : ) for both addSU and removeSU... 6 files! Add and remove tells me that this was thought out and probably going on for a while. Now users have the option of playing love-hate with pokemon, banking apps or whatever... flash SU... add, remove, add, remove and on on! Nice to give users options, but why is the default without root when status quo has been root baked in all along? I still do not know. Those who did not want root could have simply run removeSU. I am talking about default here. Of course, now we solutions no matter what the default is. It was problematic, even for a short while, when root was removed and no addSU available.

I did flash SuperSU; no luck! I then got phh's superuser from f-droid, nothing! Question: So, users must have the SU binary program and an app to interface manage/review permissions? I got spoilt with CM; never had to look anywhere as root was baked; both the SU command and management interface built-in. Busybox or any other tools needing root permission won't help if you don't' have root!

It as my fault... I could have simply wiped cleaned and flashed an older build! I need to learn / research how to correctly apply an alternative root solution, just in case; dosen't hurt to know and I think there are a few solutions that other ROMs use!

Thank you for the suggestions!
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] HaoZeke:
Why not just tie up with Magisk then?

If andropay is the issue.

It's a great thing. No more third apps install zip to simply root the phone.

Hello everyone, this is my first thread which I've created with useful information rather than helps. 👼

NOTICE-I'm not the developer of this app I just wanted to create it as there's no tutorial on it. I'm not responsible if you do this without the developer's permission, you MUST do it only with permission. Another thing is that I know this app has low ratings but that is because of the lack of knowledge about the app.

Intro-This is an app to edit apk files, you can edit everything except java files.

Features:

1. You can do this directly from android without pc

2. No need to do anything with a file manager.

3. Even for complete beginners, even noobs can do some things with this app like editing app name, app icon, app activity labels etc.

4. No need of paying, although you get it for free there is even a premium version of this app but almost everything needed is available within the free version. But donate if possible to support the developer.

Worked a treat, thank you so much!

Just a tip for anyone compiling this on a Digital Ocean droplet or some other headless server: install ImageMagick too, without it the compile failes. I used the 12 CPU/32GB RAM, Ubuntu 16.10 droplet and the build took just over an hour.

Thanks again

The firmware are available for two regions: UK (BTU) and the Czech Republic (O2C). You can download these Nougat-based firmware files and flash your compatible Galaxy S7 models manually (you should also be able to update your device through Samsung Smart Switch on your PC). Galaxy S7 edge firmware shouldn’t be far behind, and we will be sure to let you know once those show up in our database.:D:D:D:D

For S7 Edge : https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/120208/G935FXXU1DPLT_G935FOXA1DPLT_BTU/

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] i11usive:
Right .. I've been reading and researching this .. but can't find a definitive answer. Perhaps one of you gurus can assist. According to Phone INFO I have the following setup:

Bootloader/PDA/Baeband Version: G935FXXU1DPLT

CSC Version: G935FOXA1DPLT

When I try to use/install the Galaxy Gear VR, I keep getting "network error". From my research, this is linked to the CSC. Question is, how do I restore it to base CSC - without rooting?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.

so i read on the other thread 1st i have to download mm btu rom...than i can flash this is it true?

or i just download this and flash it via odin?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] naryraza:
The other thread was created when the full firmware was not available yet, the workaround was to flash mm btu then update to nougat. These are the nougat firmwares as they are now available, not the mm ones. so you just have to flash them and you'll have nougat on your phone.

After reading, reading and reading I still am very confused. :confused:

Just a question and maybe I did not read that particular thread, sorry in advance, but if I understand correctly:

1. I extract my ROM

2. Change a certain cab from dutch to english

3. Rebuild my ROM

4. I can than load that ROM without the CID unlock HDSPL thingy

Correct?

Yes? Okay I start building.

No? Any other change to get an english non edited/tweaked Rom on my TyTn II?

The more I write the more I start knowing the answer. I think. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ecltech:
One thing I know for sure is that you do need the "CID Unlook HDSPL thingy". :) Without that you cannot flash a ROM so if you're going to do any flashing make sure you HardSPL your device otherwise you can render you device inoperable.

As for a ROM you can dump your ROM to have a backup so if you need to restore it later for warranty purposes you can rebuild from that. Or you can use the dumped ROM to create your custom ROM.

Check out this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=349354.

It's a very easy way to create a custom ROM.

Good luck.

Well, what are you trying to do? "non-edited" and "Tweaked" will not go in the same sentence... Also I see "change a certain cab from Dutch to English" and I get totally confused like you are...:confused: What are you really trying to do? Do you want to flash a tweaked English "cooked ROM" onto your device? That's easy - there are a couple of ROMs you can try out: Dutty's, Q-Mobile, Schaps, Gullum... or do you want to learn how to cook your own ROM? _Alex_ has put together an awesome cooking tutorial and Kitchen tools for you to use so I suggest you read those again! In either case you'll need to first unlock your device using the great pof's HardSPL/CID unlock utility...else you'll have a very expensive brick on your hands! But again, my question: what are you really trying to do?:confused:
