Isn't that already rooted? It says root dell at bottom? Im sure it shouldn't say that. Mine says sep 53 but doesn't have the word root at all and it on stock unrooted.

Yes I bought it used for few weeks I also updated my stock rom if i am not mistaken its Indian one. Here is my new rom but its weird it is still showing root too. So can I just flash custom rom straight without doing rooting it again.

Guys what are you talking about.
I bought it new from shop, ripped the packaging myself and it says "[email protected] #2".
I even updated it myself from KIES to KKA.

You can root it accordingly the threads in development section.

Grouper and Sky Go

This has got me totally demented. I need sky go to keep up with the footie when I'm away from home. I dunno what detection routines sky go uses but it sucks lol.
I've tried unrooting various ROMs using supersu to no avail.
So now I've installed multirom and slimkat 4.4, tried titanium complained about no root. Tried a few other apps with the same result, excellent.
Tried sky go, as usual it teases me, everything is looking good then the dreaded message "sky go is not supported on rooted android device"
So how the f**k can sky go detect it but nothing else can

Sorry for the double post. Tapatalk :-\

the only way to get it working is to have it completely stock, any kernel/rom thats not stock will cause the error so if you have the superuser app its still rooted

I removed the supersu app after unrooting but it didn't help. I've been trying to find a flashable zip of an unrooted stock room to no avail.

Good idea, never thought of that. I've downloaded what I think is a stock 4.3 untouched ROM. If this doesn't work when I get my laptop back from being repaired I will do as you suggested.
Thanks for your help.

You need a totally stock unrooted and locked bootloader handset/tablet.

I suspect they're doing something crazy like checksumming the system partition. That would explain also why even minor OS updates render it unusable for weeks (4.4 support? Dream on..), and it only works on a limited subset of phones.
I reckon it's possible to make one that works on most stuff but any attempt at decompiling/recompiling the APK breaks it as it also internally checks itself to make sure it's not been modified, and I haven't dug far enough to remove that check.

Wondered the same, but looking at the tabbed settings page in the screenshots, I think he is right with 4.2.2
Plus he is involved with MIUI which is still 4.2.2 also.

It says 4.2 all over the thread

Somebody brave please report back!!!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app

Flashes and boots just fine. Problem is all the setup pages are in Chinese. And you have to enter tour phone number to receive an activation code...which you never receive.
I couldn't get it past the setup so I can't report on functionality.
OP, if I'm doing something wrong please let me know as I'd love to test this to help you with future releases.

Hmm. I canceled the activation code. And It took me to the home screen. But anyways. So many things in Chinese. And can't even add NY for Weather.. not my type of rom. But thanks for the rom.

Tried again and cancelled the activation. Just as @Son Rise says: its a cool ROM just too much of it's in Chinese.
Looking forward to progress on this. Thanks @Tquetski!

I appreciate your work, it's really nice cool rom!
so far, so good .except I got a force close for the process.com.android.phone (for setting>Moble networks)
and I cant root it, I tried many SU.zip with no luck!
Could you update it to the last ColorOS version, please?
Thanks,

4.4.2 Kitkat Wireless Charging BUG

Ok so when on 4.4.2 Kitkat I place my phone on the wireless charging pad and it plays a song that can not be stopped and is just looped. Anyone know of a solution? Wireless charging is an essential feature for me and its annoying to not have it work. Thanks.

May I ask what rom you're running, MLG or NC2? I have heard of this issue on the MLG KitKat leak. Not sue if it got sorted out with the NC2 official release. I was hoping it did as I just ordered the Samsung wireless charging s-view case and charging pad. I believe the work-around on MLG was to turn the sound all the way down while charging (Not much of a work-around) or if rooted, delete the ogg sound file. I would have to scour the MLG leak thread to be sure of these.

actually that is not the stock 4.4.2 thats the leaked 4.4.2

Just received my Samsung wireless charging s - view flip cover and charging pad. Running stock NC2 and no music playing when wireless charging. Must be a bug limited to the MLG leak.

You are running the MLG leak. You will have to restore back to official MJ5 then upgrade to official NC2. There are threads in the general section. You might want to check the "Fix for KitKat update failing without rooting" thread.

there was a one click leak and that was it look in the general section for mj5 restore so you can go back to 4.3 then for the thread on how to get the 4.4.2 ota to work if you do the restore the nb4 update will download and install after it the kitkat will download but it wont install because of the restore img is modified but everything you need to do is in the general section

Thanks. Got it restored and just waiting for the nb4 ota now

Now that is interesting. I've never seen access point settings for ATT that uses ATT Nextgenphone/nxtgenphone before. Can you post a screenshot for the rest of the settings for that access point? I'd like to try it on my phone.

I got the files needed from a thread. Even found the OTA update and got everything working. IT was the leaked 4.4.2 kitkat causing the sound loop so thanks to everyone for pointing that out. Let me try and upload the files in my dropbox and ill post the links here for you when I get a chance. GL

Found this pre G900AUCU2AND3

What caught my eye was to the right before area to download... the word UNLOCK...
???
SAMSUNG-SM-G900A, with 128gb SD & Rooted.

if you go to the site and look for sm-g900a in the list it is not there.

Just downloaded it all inside the tar.md5 is a recovery img etc
Wonder if can use that? But the word UNLOCK has me curious?

the word unlock is just a link to a site for you to sim unlock your phone.

Got it down was able to extract all from it. .. their is a recovery.img in it hmm wonder can I use it to recover to stock system etc and still retain root or not?

I don't know what you're saying, but if you have safestrap, then you still have stock recovery too. Powering the phone off, then volume down + menu + power button will show that.

And I keep trying to tell people that the firmware from Sammobile and Samsung-updates does not work on our S5 if you've updated to ND3. We must use the one from the general section, which is the same firmware, but different file.

S5 active here I downloaded my version of firmware from sammobile.com and it flashed fine. Just thought I would put that out there.
