Busy box - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have had a good read through but cannot find much answers, I don't like to start new threads merge or delete if must
But my question Is I have stock 434 Rom on 4.1.2 I've rooted using bina4ry multi root all is good and nfc works
Next I installed TWRP through the APk on this forum again all is good and holding volume up whilst in green light, turns purple and boots too TWRP and reboots no problem
Now to my main question Before I start with a few mods etc, should I install busy box? Or need I not bother with stock Rom.

Bin4ry's tool installs busybox as part of the rooting process, so you already have it

[Q] Notification Drawer Toggling of Mobile Data/Sync

I've seen on the xda forums that some people have 'extra' toggling buttons at the top of their notification drawer(hope it's the correct term, 1st three months as Android OS user), My friend's S3 has them by default too, does the Note have it? or is there a need for root/custom launcher; since S3 has a newer rev of the Touchwiz Launcher. If possible, i would like to avoid rooting!
What the phone currently has, from stock is just 5 buttons at the top, which are Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Profile, Screen Rotation, Power Saving.
Wish to add: Mobile Data toggle/ Sync toggle (dunno if there's any more available)
something like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=1620625
^yeap, that's it. but i have a query, it's my first time with an android phone, barely used for 4 months.
i don't get wat's flashing with CWM; does that require root? what exactly is CWM, apart from the full name?
does flashing that mod = voiding my warranty like what rooting does?
Bump. Anyone knows why the note doesn't have it o.o

You can use some app from playstore for extra toggles if you do not want to root but flashing this mod requires root and cwm.
If you are rooted, you can have 15 toggles without having cwm, here is a small guide- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30668303

To root your phone,you could simply flash a safe rooted kernel like Odin version hydracore through ODIN.
You will get yellow triangle and increased counter.But you can reset it easily with triangle away app by chain fire.A simple search would bring it up....

Yes, check rooting guide by dr.ketan in my sig, follow any method (1st or 2nd) as you prefer.

Thanks for the above confirmations/help provided.
One last query, how do I backup my current settings? I suppose the sequence is root, backup and then apply mod?

Bump!
Question in my above post in unanswered :x
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
when u root and apply a safe kernel like hydracore or speedmod.. u will get cwm thru which u can backup the ROM using the nandroid backup feature.
The best start is to get Rooted first.. then install the 15 toggles you want.. search threads and you will find a lot with different shapes and themes

15 toggle quickpanel

Is there a file that i can flash via mobile odin that would modify my quickpanel to show 15 toggles? I don't need additional themes. Just the toggles. I'm on stock german 4.0.4 and rooted. The ones i've seen require cwm. Just wondering if there's anything else that would let me use what i already have.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
You can use cwm.zip (which you have used to root device)
Thanks doc. I've don't have cwm. I've been using mobileodin to update my phone since 2.3.5.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
Fing installation n root ics link on my signature, you will get it from there.
Just read how to root, here you have to use toggle zip in place of supersu busybox install.zip. Rest of method is same

Ended up installing cwm. Already have the 15 toggles. Thanks!

[RECOVERY][SCH-I705][2012-24-10] Unofficial CWM 6.0.1.2 for VZW G Tab 2 7.0

This recovery is an older port. For a source build version see this thread
UNOFFICIAL CWM 6.0.1.2 non-touch
NOTICE: I am not responsible for your device!​
NOTE: This CWM was ported from VZW SGS3
I have successfully ported CWM to our device. It is NOT an official release, nor is it built from source.. I'm still working on that one. BUT, for now, we have this. This has been tested on my device. I've successfully made a backup, wiped everything, and restored. Device is still alive
YOU MUST BE ROOTED!
How to flash:
1. Download CWM 6.0.1.2 to the root of your SD Card -- *old thread*
2. From Terminal emulator or ADB do the following:
From ADB
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
reboot recovery
From Terminal
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
reboot recovery
Congratulations! You should now have a functional CWM recovery.
Once you got custom, NEVER accept an OTA!. Verizon released an OTA for the SCH-I705 that makes changes to recovery, boot, and aboot, THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BREAK YOUR ROOT AND UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER! DO NOT ACCEPT!
TO RETURN TO STOCK RECOVERY
Follow the same procedures above, except flash this recovery instead of the CWM recovery.
*Old thread*
Thanks to:
ruben00 - for helping me out with repacking
invisiblek - for his mkbootimg cmdline values, they worked!
Whoever built the GS3 recovery I ported.. Can't remember for the life of me.​
Good work. Wish I could test.
Wonder if mobile Odin would work to flash this like on the other gt2 models.
i just tryed it. it worked perfectly. thanks.. your the man. now when i get home on Monday from the honeymoon. i will build a kernel for it. need a little more speed.

Is there a new thread you guys are working out of? I haven't seen any activity in awhile. Your probably just busy.. I just want to stay in the loop!
Thanks, Nexttonomy
I've been really busy and haven't had a whole lot of time this week. I've also moved most of the work to PMs between a few people.

Yes, using titanium you can freeze SDM.
Green icon with a phone and up arrow. Freeze or uninstall with titanium and verizon won't know what hit em.

No, VZW Tab 2 only. Only ever flash a recovery built for your device.
Just got word.. That update was nothing important. Other then. It was only for wifi pop up screen.. And data usage software.. Just more bull **** for Verizon running the battery down..

Hey guys, I'm not sure if many of you know who jt is, but he's been developing on samsung devices since the fascinate. He's done great work on both the device mentioned and the samsung galaxy tab org. If he had the galaxy tab 2 and some beer, you can bet your ass he would get some work done on it.
I'll put in 20. Anyone else down for raising some money to get this dude a device?
All do respect. These tablets around 350 bucks. And there Really not that many owners on here. So the goal would never be reached. Just hang in there. Few of us development people are working on this. Should have something with in a month.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Xparent SkyBlue Tapatalk 2
Unfortunately I don't have a lot of cash to spare. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and a wedding after that all just within three months for me. Great offer though!
However, do you think he'd mind lending a helping hand by giving us some advice/input?
Anybody got a link to the origional build released on the verizon galaxy tab 2? Need to downgrade to gain root I think.
Month came and went. Still nothing. LOL

It was discussed already. Wait two days and phone will be butter smooth. Also you can't flash non-stock firmware with locked bootloader, only root.

No, Android is compiling it's stuff in the background after factory reset. Use your phone normally, after two days this background processes will be completed and phone will be faster, battery life will be slightly improved too.

J.b. 4.3 root, wanted

I'm looking for rooting my Note n7000 running Slimroms JB 4.3
I found a a flashable zip that should give me my root back but cwm says the file ain't no good. The file is signed.

Read this:

And seriously, you could have solved this yourself by reading the last posts in the Slim Bean thread... or using the search function.
I used search, only came up with irrelevant posts

Well, maybe you should learn how to search... This is the search for the term "root" in the Slim Bean thread...

Or you could have gone to the thread, read the first posts by the dev and you would have seen:

Sorry for my blindness. I got root back so thank you
