[Q] How to fix Superuser issue without recovery mode? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I have a problem and I ask for your help. I was searching the forum for a solution but could not find one. I have soft bricked my Galaxy Tab. I have a P1000N and it was updated with official Gingerbread via Kies and with a rooted kernel via Odin. I have installed also on it Superuser and Busybox Installer applications from the Market.
I have made that mistake that in the sbin directory the v1.16.2Androidminimal Busybox was installed by this custom kernel but via the Install Busybox I have installed 1.18.4 and after rebooted the device it will not load. I can access the download mode but the recovery mode will not load.
Is there a quick way without loading back a Firmware? Maybe somehow load back the old Busybox? If yes, please list the steps. Since only this causing the problem. The device is recognized as an USB storage but I can not access the content. Probably because it should load further in order to do that.
In case the only solution is that I have to flash the ROM via Odin I have also a question:
PDA: P1000NVFJP5
PHONE: P1000NUBJP3
CSC: P1000NUUBJPA
I have found this ROM image P1000NUBJP7_UUBJP7_UBJP3. Since I see UBJP3 will this work or shall I look for other ROM? I do not want to hard brick the device.
Thank you all for your help!

Hi All,
Okay. I was a bit impatient and solved the problem in the meantime. I was thinking to solve it with ADB put, but I am not sure if it would have worked.
So the solution was that I have loaded from Samfirmware the previously mentioned firmware but, it booted but the Country Specification Codes (only 3 Latin American languages + English) for my local country (European country) it was not included and some system applications (for example Email) were crashing continuously. First I rooted again the device with the custom kernel via Odin.
Luckily I have made a complete backup when the system was working via Clockwork and copied on my PC, so what I did:
I created a new folder under clockwork and pasted this two files from the backup: system.img and boot.img then I have edited the nandroid.md5 file and only left this two entries with the MD5 codes. The other three were removed from the file since I did not want to restore the applications (data.img), cache (cache.img) or datadata.img.
I started the restore and after it finished my local language was available.
I have found later the article which mentions that it is risky to update the Busybox in case of rooted kernel to a new version due to the scripts it is running. I have learned the lesson.

You prolly fixed this already but in case someone else has this issue. Try installing Busybox from the market.

I rooted my phone with eclair installed and used clockworkmod recovery with no issues until I one day wanted to go back to stock and attempted a restore of the backup I made right before flashing the OverStock ROM. The phone wouldn't boot, so finally got the Overstock to go back. Phone worked fine for the most part, but from then on to get into recovery mode, required shutting down and using button presses (Up/down vol/PWR button) and it would go in fine. Could never get Clockworkmod to go into recovery mode with a click. Saw that (finally) Samsung has published a Froyo update, so took back to stock eclair using ODIN3 so I could use Kies mini to update. Did a factory reset to remove all old info directories and data. Update went perfect, but want the option to use the rooted apps (Titanium backup and ClockworkMod--purchased apps) to play with my phone as I see fit. Used SuperOneClick to root phone and verified I can get superuser with using terminal emulator, successfully executing "su" command. Problem is I can't get into CWM recovery. Only get "Android system recovery <3e>". Tried uninstalling CWM and reinstalling. Re-Flashed CWM recovery and it lists version 2.5.1.2 as current and latest.
I obviously need CWM recovery to flash different ROMS, but wanted a current backup before starting. Can't get any further until I figure this out. Any help would be appreciated. I was a noob, just a month ago, but was feeling pretty confident until this happened. Guess I'm still a noob, but just a little more dangerous now. Thanks in advance.
Just noticed that I wasn't in a phone specific thread, so here's my phone details... Samsung Vibrant (T-Mobile).
CWM issues with Milestone
In the last update of the RomManager was added support for version ClockWorkMod 3.x for Milestone - but still unable to use the CWM as standard recovery.
Using another recovery as OR1.4 you can start CMW from the SD card - but that does not solve the problem of RomManager stay with completely limited functions.
The Rom Manager is having updates constantly and I think we have a working version for Milestone soon - but in part I'm upset to see that the Milestone is listed as a supported device - when in fact it is not.
I bought the full version of Rom Manager because I believe it is a great tool and I hope someday I can use all its functions.
I have the same problem. I use OpenRecovery for Sholes to do those things. I hope we can use those tools like a normal user even a day.

[Q] Noob please help me upgrade SGS from E 2.1 to GB 2.3

Hi,
After some help please, I am trying to upgrade from android 2.1 to gingerbread.
I have managed to get root access on my Samsung galaxy S i9000. I did this using the 'Galaxy S I9000 One-Click Root.exe' tool.
Then I installed Rom Manager via an .apk install (couldn't find the free version in the market for some reason).
After this I downloaded the busybox installer/updater and updated busybox to the latest version available.
Now I am having problems as when I run rom manager and try to run 'Flash Clockworkmod recovery' it goes through the process and when I reboot into recovery (using rom manager as I can't get into recovery using three button combo) it doesn't have the CWM recovery its just the standard one.
Also if I try to backup current rom (thinking this is a nandroid backup?) it reboots into recovery and just sits there and doesn't do anything.
Can someone please help, tried doing lots of research but am getting very confused as to what to do next.
Thanks in advance.
Boost. Haven't you heard....its the new bump!
Any help would be much appreciated.

(no? - disconnect, find drivers, download, install)
Yes? :
3.) Flash in download mode using Odin + 512.pit + 2.3.x ROM + Sbl
You must use ROM with Sbl.bin = 2.3.x bootloader when going 2.1 -> 2.3
If no download mode by pressing (vol- home pwr), use XDA search for this fix.

Hi,
Thanks for the response.
I have now managed to successfully fix the three button combo issue so can get into download mode and have backup my efs folder.
Before I flash I would like to do a nandroid backup. I installed rom manager but still can't get CWM to install sucessfully. It says download successful when run from the rom manager option (flash CWM recovery) but when the phone reboots the CWM isn't there is just the stock options. Any ideas as to why this is or how to fix?
Many thanks in advance.
I have sorted my nandroid backup. I didn't realise that once you downloaded the CWM you had to do a manual install from stock recovery using the update.zip. Soon as i did this it was ok.
Now going to flash using odin v1.82 + 512.pit and Gingerbread 2.3.5 europe rom GT_I9000_XFJVA_XXJVT_OXFJV1_Sbl
Will make sure re-partition is checked.
Hopefully all will go well. Will post update after update.

[Q] CWM Manager v3.0 and Root Manager - Couldn't backup Stock ROM

Dear XDA Members and Friends:
I'm excited to be a new XDA member and thank you in advance for your help.
I've recently rooted my Samsung Note using SuperOneClick v2.3.3 method successfully.
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK2-CL705203
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UBKK2
Baseband Version : N7000UBKK1
But I couldn't backup my stock ROM- Neither by CWM Manager v3.0 nor Via Rom Manager, due to the below reasons:
1) ROM Manager-
When I hit "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery", my phone model is not listed as a choice.
2) CWM Manager v3.0
When I open this for the first time, it throws-
"This version of CWM Manager should be used with CF-Root v5.0 or newer........
Could you please advise me as to how can I backup my stock ROM. So that I venture the world of custom ROMs.
Thanks for your time and help in advance.

CWM Manager works only with CF--Root compatible kernels. So, this is what you can do:
Reboot to recovery by simultaneously pressing volume down + home + power.
Backup your Rom from there (you'll see the option).
THANKS Chasmodo.
I just followed your instructions, and I couldn't figure out. Here is the outcome:
Warning!!
A Custom OS can cuase critical problems in phone and installed applications.
If you want to download a custom OS, press the volume down key.
Otherwise, press the volume down key to cancel.

I just removed the battery out to shutdown, as I'm not sure. ( I didn't connect my phone to PC either)...

I realized that I had to "volume up" instead of "volume down" to get to Android system recovery <3e>.
But still I don't see an option to back up my stock ROM, please see below the options in Android system recovery <3e> mode:
Enter: OK Key. Selct : Vol UP / Vol Down
reboot system now
apply update from sdcard
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition

Are you sure you are rooted. Check your root by installing this app- https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDEsImJ1cnJvd3MuYXBwcy5yb290Y2hlY2tlciJd
Also to take backups you require a custom recovery which is included in the CF root kernels like CWM manager. If your phone is coming as not rooted then try rooting again by following the steps mentioned here to the dot - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
Cheers!
Hit thanks if it helped!

Thank you All!
First off, let me apologize for hasty typing (volume down instead of volume up).
What you need to do is to flash CF--Root kernel to get CWM Recovery, so your CWM Manager can backup your current situation.
Download InitialCFRootFlasher. ICFRF is a Windoze program.
Download CF--Root Kernel zip.
Extract zimage (that's your kernel file) from the zip.
Place zimage into zimage/ folder of the unpacked InitialCFRootFlasher.
Start already-rooted.bat from InitialCFRootFlasher and follow the instructions.
You'll have flashed CF-Root kernel in cca 5 minutes. You'll also get Superuser, BusyBox and CWM Recovery in the process.

Thanks Chasmodo and Abhisahara! Hope you had a great weekend!
No need of apology Chasmodo, I understand that it was a typo and what you really meant...
Quick Question:
1) Please confirm that the Kernel CF-Root-SGN_ZS_MUL_KK1-v5.0-CWM5 is the right one for my phone model below:
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK2-CL705203
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UBKK2
Baseband Version : N7000UBKK1
2) By flashing my device with the above Kernel, does my flash counter will be affected on my device ?
3) With this method how can I be assured that I can backup my original Stock ROM via CWM, I thought CF Root will modify my original ROM/Kernel, isn't ?
Thanks all for the inputs and help.
P.S. BTW, In the interest of consistency, I've unrooted my device using SingleOneClick method, so that I can follow the Chasmodo's method (CF Root) to root my device and backup my Stock ROM.

First off, you didn't have to unroot it. But never mind. My little guide's steps still stand, except for the part
Start already-rooted.bat from InitialCFRootFlasher, you won't be doing this, but
Launch not-rooted-yet.bat instead and follow the instructions
Before you do all this, make sure that you have either Kies or the correct Windows drivers installed on your PC. Kies mustn't be running whilst you're rooting. You can download Kies directly from Samsung, and the standalone Windows drivers can be found in Dr. Ketan's Rom/Rooting thread at the very beginning of the first post.
The kernel I have provided is the right one for your Rom.
To put your mind at ease, rooting your phone will not change anything except the kernel, i.e. the way you can access your phone's functions. All your data, system files and everything else will remain exactly the same as before rooting. And after rooting you can back it all up via CWM Manager, or directly from CWM Recovery. As you say, your Rom will be slightly changed (different kernel), but that's the only way for us to backup our system, flash different Roms, themes etc.
The method I have suggested is tried and tested, and it neither triggers your binary counter, nor gets you the triangle. However, I don't know what's the state of your counter ATM, since you rooted your Note with SuperOneClick. You can check it by rebooting into Download mode - volume down + home + power, then volume up when you get the warning. The next screen will have your Binary Counter in the top left corner. If it says NO, that means that it's still zero. Any other value means that your warranty is probably void.
Thanks much Chasmodo for your continued support and help.
1) Thank GOD, I used your method to verify the binary counter, it looks zero (No), so I'm good on the warranty, right ?
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7000
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
2) I've used the script "DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su" mentioned by Dr. Ketan on his thread and just rooted my device successfully.
3) I'm now ready to run the "script "already-rooted" from the extracted folder named "InitialCFRootFlasher". This is referred from Dr.Ketan's procedure. This will just get me CF Root/CWM Manager so that I can backup my Stock Rom, But before that, please can you confirm the below ?
(A) While backing up ROM after the above process (step 3), will that backup my original Stock ROM or modified CF Root Stock ROM ?
Chasmodo's response to my earlier question:

P970 can't install anything?

Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a P970 through the Koodo network. I used smartflash, rom converter 2.0, etc. to root the phone.
I booted my phone, superuser was installed. Everything works well, however, if I go to Google Play store to install any app, the phone freezes and I have to take the battery out to get it started again or the phone will just reboot as soon as it tries to install it. I tried downloading the apk and uploading it to the phone and installing it with superuser but it does the same thing.
I reinstalled everything twice now and it still does the same thing. I've read around the website but can't find any answer. Can anyone help please?
Try to flash another rom.
The phone came with V20j. There's a Telus rom that's V20i. It's ok to try that one?

I meen that you can try to flash a custom rom like zeus.
I can't download rom manager or anything like that without it rebooting.
I followed these instructions found on this site:
1. Get original Koodo firmware
2. Extract BIN/FLS with LGExtract.exe
3. Patch in CWM image with Linux DD (I used p970 rom converter 2.0 to do the extract and CWM image)
4. Flash with SmartFlashTool
The only apps that came with the superuser was anreboot and es file explorer
Can I just flash a rom like zeus with the rom conerter 2.0?
You have CWM,right? If not, try cwm flasher by redy in Development sector
When the phone is restarting at LG logo, press Volume Down to Recovery.
If u not have e/g-recovery, power off and try to press Power button and Volume down in the same time
And u can wipe all data or flash any custom rom
Already U know about CWM and injecting root
So, just download Gingerbread V20S Rooted .bin and .fls files from google
And flash with Smart Flash tool
Or else, U can try Zeus (excellent ROM) with (if u have to install Zeus, U should have some ROM installed with root and ROM manager)
If now ur phone has root option, just install ROM manager (download separately ROM manager and install)
Even if yours is not rooted, basic features of ROM manager will work for Reboot into Recovery, so that you can flash the zip file of Zeus ROM (try to install latest is 6.39n and its update file)
If unable to install just Factory Reset, even that is not working..
Try to open the settings of Play Google and clear all the cache or history u can find and restart the phone..
Try the Zeus ROM, amazing ROM and No. 1 now..
Press THANKS if I helped you
Hi there,
darrenp76, I too had just rooted my own LG P970 (my carrier is also Koodo). I used a different method to root my phone, but the result was a success.
I found myself in the same situation as you; every time I tried to download an app, the download would complete but then the phone would hang on when the installation portion began. The phone would power off, and boot back up.
I have solved this issue by doing the following:
1) Go to Settings
2) Go to Privacy
3) Select "Factor data reset"
4) Reset phone. I did NOT check off "Erase SD card"
My phone restarted, I saw the ClockWorkMod screen, then my phone continued to restart normally.
I was then prompted with LG's little tutorial, and I entered my gmail information when prompted.
I was then able to access the Market - which updated to the Play store. I was able to keep Superuser on my phone, but I lost the 2 applications that were automatically installed when I rooted my phone (one was a file browser and the other was some sort of restart.) I did not have these programs installed for very long because I reset my phone shortly after rooting, and so I wasn't able to familiarize myself with those 2 apps, and I don't remember the names of them.
Anyways, I really hope that this helps you. Having been through the situation myself, I was very worried, but the factory reset seems to have fixed this issue.

Yes it does..... I dont think there is a way around it.... as i work with a lot of phones on a daily basis... i need to be quick with things... cant flash roms specially when you are doing remote imei repairs and such....
no need do remote emei repaire it cost $ , just root and write certificate
The only issue is that the certificates get blacklisted... you need private cert files
How is the modem? Is it sticking without issue?

"A reply to this problem has been posted MANY times. Take the back off your phone and flash Philztouch with Odin. Get ready to pull the battery IMMEDIATELY you see the green PASS! on Odin – I did it by having my fingernail hooked into the battery slot while the phone was downloading the file, and pulling the battery the second I saw the PASS! (yes, the phone was still connected to the PC with the cable). I counted to 20, replaced the battery, and booted straight into recovery – (Vol Up, Power and Home pressed all together). Philztouch recovery came up. "
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, here's scary part. I un-ticked Auto-reset and factory reset boxes in Odin, flashed Philztouch, and Odin stuck on RESET state, phone was still in downloading state! Well, after couple minutes I had no choice but to pull battery.
Put battery back in, tried to boot into recovery...and bingo! It was Philztouch! Now I flashed SuperSU, rebooted, at some reason I had no warnings, triangles whatsoever! Another funny thing - SuperSU didn't promt me to disable Knox automatically at some reason. I downloaded Titanium Backup, and freezed Knox along with millions of other bloatware programs.
Phone originally was Canada, Fido, I unlocked it after rooting, purchased code for $15.
Hope this helps.
I am on lollipop 5.1.1 Will this still work
Hi,
I have Roger's unlocked Galaxy S5 G900W8. I have installed custom rom on it and now I want to revert back to stock rom.
Will flashing Roger's stock rom lock my phone again?
P S: I don't live in Canada so if Roger's rom changes my modem settings then I will be unable to use my Sim.
