Hey, i bought a samsung galaxy tab and i'm new. I always had iphone and ultimately never used a android. Plz someone help and provide steps . I feel insecure and people tellin me i'm not good enough Shout out to the haters!
Have you tried reading all the posts and the tutorials on this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933400
Helped me immensely and should answer all your questions too.
Hi,
I have followed all the steps in the rooting Galaxy Tab for N00bs thread and got the message from the superoneclick that my tab had been successfully rooted.
edit.
After much fumbling about and doing it twice I think it has worked, It is not clear to a new user if you device is rooted or not as the guide just ends saying 'your device is rooted'!
It took forever to boot up again and it appeared that all my apps had vanished but eventually they came back. Seemed very slow.
I got an app called rootchecker that tells you if it has worked or not - and on the second time through it worked! Magic! Now hopefully will get titanium backup working now! Also hope to get the thing unlocked from O2. Then get a good custom rom. Errr, how exciting what else?
Thank you

Hey everyone,
I rooted my nexus one when it was 2.2, now im trying to update to 2.2.1. However the OTA update wasnt taking, it failed and the installation aborted everytime. I search forums and found one saying to factory reset my phone, which i did. Saved everything with titanium backup. Now im stuck with:
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Kernal version:2.6.29-01117-g4bc62c2 android-build apa26#1
Build nuumber: EPE76
One problem is i do not get an OTA update to upgrade to 2.2 or 2.2.1. Also i did a manual update with signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24.zip and it fails and installation aborts. How can i get back to at least 2.2, but preferably 2.2.1.
Also when trying to restore my apps from titanium backup, it tells me my phone is not rooted, but I still see the little "padlock" unlocked when i boot my phone.
Thanks, hope someone can help

im assuming that zip wont work because im on build epe 76. Whats the best way from here to get to at least 2.2
It sounds like you need to do some reading. Look at the Nexus One wiki that's linked at the top of this forum. Read everything it has to say, then re-read.
Your questions are answered.
Not to mention the wrong forum. This is development, not Q&A.
Cheers and g/l
wiki page doesnt help at all
just read the wiki page twice, as you said. There is nothing about how to fix this issue. Sooooooooooo.....??????
i have 50+ forums and googled this issue 10+ times, not having any luck....If you cant help can you direct where i can find help????
Lol, the wiki wont show you the exact issue being resolved. You need to think between the lines, do some problem solving. Nobody on this forum is going to spoon-feed you the answer you look for.
Everything I know about the Nexus One (and Android in general) is from these forums. You aren't looking hard enough if you can't find the info you need.
So please, have enough sense next time to at least post in the correct sub-forum, instead of coming in filled with piss and vinegar making a fool of yourself.

1. You haven't given enough information for anyone to help direct you.
2. It sounds like your bootloader is unlocked, but you lost root. Or maybe your recovery (whichever that is) won't allow an unsigned zip.
3. But once again, this is the wrong forum. This is not the place for you to go into further detail. All it will do is piss people off who are trying to work on development, but have to wade through beggar spam. So please stop.
this is the wrong thread for what you need...mod needs to move it. Take it easy guys, he's just looking for help.
If you have Terminal Emulator from Market installed, type this:
at the $ type su ($su)
it should change to # sign
at # type whoami (#whoami)
it should replay back with "root"
If not, you have lost root and you will need to re-root your device. Please open a thread in Q&A to ask further questions.
I just did the AT&T upgrade to my captivate. It went well however I am unable to reroot.
I followed all the steps in the One Click root here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739304
Every thing looked normal until I pressed the start button to complete the operation .
An error message appears as follows:

Dude, did you even bother to look around before starting a new thread? Two threads down from yours:

I did a number of searches using various words and phrases. but nothing came up. Additionally I am not that familiar with this site.
I apologize if I have offended your sensibilities.

Hello,
I have downgraded my phone from V6 to V4 however I am still unable to root using OneClick or Rage. I'm assuming it updates more than I thought. Can any provide some information of why this is happening?
Thanks,

I wrote a procedure at:
www DOT droidforums DOT net/forum/lg-revolution-development/166506-how-get-rooted-revolution-trying-ota-update-2.html#post1714595
(Sorry, to new to the forum to post outside links, but since it isn't SPAM, I'm going to attempt to post this with the link broken up a bit, but readable.)
that worked for me. It's a lot like this one with some other files/options and links added. You will notice at the bottom that I mentioned having to root/unroot over and over to get it to finally root.
Also, one thing I would like to note. is that I was getting to step 5 rooting (via OneClick) and it would fail. So, i managed to get it to get past that part by starting the rooting process BEFORE the phone was fully booted. In other words, I would begin the root process, hitting the button upon phone power up until it would connect and run. If the root process was able to complete before the phone was fully booted, the steps that would fail, got completed and I was rooted.
Hope this extra information helps you, if you are still trying....

Insufficient info
Describe which ROM, you have. Describe the steps you followed
My phone is curently on N7000DXLA1

You have not read properly before Rooting

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
Anyway your ROM is not rootable, I shown you thread above having all information about wat to do if you have LA1. Read it multiple time till everything gets clear. Then you have any query, post it.
Hi Ketan
Arrived on your blog quite late to realise that my Note with GB DDLC1 cannot be directly rooted. But before I could realise I had tried rooting with Super one click and Exynos. Post trial my phone camera seems to be stuck. Camera opens but takes nearly 3-5presses to take one snap.
Any help would be appreciated Dr Ketan

try to re-flash the stock firmware via Odin
Before coming across the link in this forum here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...y-steps-n910t3-dofc-dog1-how-to-root-t3177225 ...
I thought I could shortcut all the work by going to the auto root chainfire site to download the actual CF Auto Root File for model sm-n910t3. I successfully flashed that file using odin. It went into a bootloop and then I freaked out.
The error messages when I turn on the phone first show
"kernal is not seandroid enforcing" in red, and
"Set Warranty Bit: kernal" in yellow writing.
After being in this bootloop i went to the link posted above and followed each step by step. My phone is successfully rooted now and I can log in to my phone fine. However, there are two problems. First, those error messages are still there. How do I get rid of that? I tried a factory reset on my phone and it wont do it.
Will get to that after. Second, when I go into twrp by hitting volume up+home+power, once im in there it wont allow me to backup my current rom. It says an error message about E:/ data mount or something like that. And also while in twrp it won't let me factory reset my phone. So the recovery program is pretty useless to me. I don't know why it doesn't work properly.
Where do I go from here? Can someone help me out in fixing this error message and getting a recovery program to work? I'm just wondering why the twrp that I flashed while following that root guide above does not work. Has anyone ever encountered those two error messages while turning on their phone? Thanks.
The error messages are normal after rooting.

So other people have those messages on the top of their phone after rooting this device? Im guessing we just ignore that message then? I thought it was there because I flashed the wrong kernal before doing it the right way and following the forum...
What if I flashed the original firmware for this note 4 phone that I have a copy of, then root the phone going through that tutorial step by step? Wouldn't that get rid of the error messages? And my twrp would work then?
Im not able to make a backup of my current rom. And Im not even able to factory reset this phone. This is a problem for me since I want to put marshmallow on here soon. When I do I get an error message. Part of my second question is wondering why twrp isn't working correctly?
please help
i took my battery out to charge it and put a new one in. now it wont even boot up. it turns on and says
"custom binary blocked by FRP"
"secure fail: kernal"
for those of you who followed my other post i rooted my phone and tripped knox. phone was giving a message but would still turn on. where do i go from here? i have everything backed up and can start fresh. please provide step by step instructions on how i can fix this phone. thank you so much in advance and god bless.
I went to samsung and downloaded the firmware for this device and then flashed it. Now it's back to normal so you can disregard my post. Thanks guys.

Easy dude, that's not how things are done around here.
Ubernoob?
Drink my ovaltine? Hash tag for uber noob? Didn't your parents raise you to not say something if you have nothing nice to say at all? Apparently not so who's really the ignorant. Ask yourself that question. Ignorance is bliss. That's a good hashtag huh.
And the bottom line is that we were all beginners at one point right? So cut me some slack im learning. It will take me time to get to where you guys are at. Yes I am brand new to this stuff and no I don't like the iphones. Androids are more user friendly. I like Samsung phones and want to learn more about them.
Its people like you that keep us beginners from wanting to come back to this website, when guys say blatantly rude comments. It shouldn't be a bashing forum. Let's all chill and get along.
