Yup we're about as unbrickable as any phone has ever been.

inside the arhive

Ok I will ask the noob question. What is Odin please and what does it bring to nexus? Thanks

I've never used it, but i thinks it's a Windows tool that allows you to flash firmware to Samsung Phones...
Can anyone elaborate?

This is great

yes Odin famous in the Galaxy S family, only Nexus S did not require it for flashing new ROMs
all the other Galaxy S models needs Odin to change firmware, as fastboot is not compatible with the rest of the Galaxy S line

i think of it as a Safety switch
even if it's EU ROM
once you revive your phone with it, then you can change to any other ROM you want

You dont need 301K USB resistor to acess download mode
with normal method
Turn off phone....Hold vol up/down plug in USB it will access download mode
think its assessable once you unlock your bootloader

never mind, confirmed
it does work
it acts like the 3 button combo in the USA Galaxy S
volume up + volume down + USB
no need for Power button like the other models
hmm... the only annoying thing is, to get out of DOWNLOAD MODE, you have to take out the battery.
on the Galaxy S you can hold Power until it turns off

Yep that's the one ! :0

[ROM][STOCK]Sprint One Stock Odex and Deodex 1.29.651.7 || Updated 4.24.13 ||

This is an old build! Please see the updated build (1.29.651.10) located here.
Here is an almost stock 1.29.651.7 ROM, both Odex and Deodex, based on my Sprint One system dump. I flashed both and everything appears to work fine. If anyone finds an issue, I will correct it and re-upload. You can flash this right after you flash TWRP (read below), as this has root and system rw protection already disabled (read here).​

Pretty excited to see you here Viper, always liked both your and mikey's roms on my various phones. Happy to see you come over!
So at this point is there any value in waiting for root/s-off without dev unlock or should we just take the plunge when our phones get here Friday? I had S-off on my 4GLTE but read there were issues for those that had to S-on/dev unlock. Just don't want to be in that position although I don't know much about what they had to deal with specifically.
Thanks again for creating roms!

Also, can you test to see if wireless tether is working now that you have root access? I have a tradeshow I will be traveling to next week and would really love to not have to pay for internet in my hotel and on the tradeshow floor.
Thanks!

Anything you know that isn't stock on this?

It's always nice to have S-OFF, but right now, it doesn't seem like it's going to be a big deal. I worked around the goofyness of recovery not being able to write the boot.img, I do it a different way and know it works for sure so there should be no issues when flashing ROMs.
As far as wifi tether, I just fired it up. Grabbed the latest from the Play Store, and changed 3 settings to make it work.
Settings > Change Device Profile > Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Check MSS Clamping
Check Routing fix
I also enable access control so I can see who is connecting, but I successfully got my computer to get online by using this.

I'm not sure what you're asking, but I think I quite clearly explained how this was different from "out of the box" in the first post.
The only other thing that would be different is that it's missing some apps that were in /data/app. HTC thought it would be a good idea to put these apps there (for whatever reason) but when you dev unlock, it wipes data and those apps. This was a problem on the International One as well. I will try to get that fixed here too, but I don't remember the apps being anything too important.

Sorry for the super newb question but would it be possible for someone to write up a basic guide on how to get this working (rooting then installing one of these stock ROMs from this thread)? I am use to having a device with a microSD card slot so not quite sure how to flash zips especially after doing a superwipe. From what I gather, the steps go something like this:
1. HTC dev unlock
2. Use the Toolkit to flash TWRP
3. Use the Toolkit to "Perm Root." Does this just push SuperSU.zip to the device then do I need to actually go in and run it from recovery? Or will it do that automatically?
4. Do a superwipe. Do I just copy the superwipe file to the device then run it from recovery? I assume this file completely wipes the device so not even the OS is present?
5. Install the deodex or odex ROM from this thread but how do I do that without a microSD card slot?
Again, sorry about all the basic questions but if someone wouldn't mind coming up with a detailed step by step guide for the newbs, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[Guide] LG G Flex Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock)

So The poster who posted some of the other G Flex files for going back to stock the threads were closed so I could not update it with new links. I have obtained some more KDZ for different models in Europe now The KDZ`s are some what hard to get for the G Flex but I was able to get a few extras
Below is a Guide that has worked on Flashing the other LG phones it should be the same for the G Flex
NOTICE! - IF you download fails or does not download all the way USE A DOWNLOAD MANAGER!, Files that are usually over 1GB browsers have issues downloading them especially if you have a slow connection.
NOT Responsible if you flash the WRONG one
How to flash ROM KDZ Method
First off I`d like to THANK @quangnhut123 for making a new way & easy way to flash the KDZ Method!!
The Files are Hosted on my server for fast speeds! Most if not all NEEDED KDZ files are on my Server
1). Download all The Files Below!
1) Click Here
2) Download LG Drivers - LG Drivers Here - 10.9 Mb
2.1)Verizon Drivers (Verizon Only)LG_VZW_United_v2.11.1.exe - 7.8 Mb
3) Download LG Flash Tool 2014 tool and extract - LG_Flash_Tool_2014.zip - 3.1 Mb
4) Enter to Download Mode and plug USB into your PC
5) Run LGFlashTool2014.exe and do as following pictures :
(If you cannot run LGFlashTool2014.exe, please install Visual C++ Runtime Library) - Download HERE
Normal Flash: Flash ROM without losing any data. Only use this when you need to fix system error. Beware of boot loop when flashing ROM that differ from current ROM on your phone or MOD ROM.
CSE Flash: Choose this option when you need a fresh format. All data will be gone. It's suitable for upgrading or downgrading ROM or simply use this when you need to back to Stock.

Great guide OP!
I have an F340L, what if I flash the D955 common for Europe, is it possible? Would I be able to receive OTA updates? Would it be safe for the device.
I'm from Greece, I think this would answer questions for many European members owning the Korean variants.

I seriously doubt you'll find that. Instead, (assuming you are rooted), download your choice of "Rashr", or "Flashify" from the market, and use it to flash the stock recovery.img file (attached). I had to zip it because the forum has a 10MB size limit. Just unzip it first and flash with Rashr/Flashify.
Also keep in mind that if you have made any changes to /system (including installing Xposed), the OTA will likely fail to install.
Personally, I wouldn't even consider trying to flash an OTA after having rooted and flashed custom recovery without a PC around. If anything goes wrong you're gonna be up a creek (if you get my drift) with no way to recover.
Good Luck

I signed up and got the email about the soak test, just wondering if they send another email with the update or if it will be an Ota. I just signed up a few days ago so who knows if I will even get one but I'd like to know what to look for thanks.

The roll-out hasn't started yet. The current *best guess* given by 'those in the know' is that it will possibly start tomorrow night. If you signed up for the soak test, you will likely receive it once the test starts.

I seriously doubt you'll find that. Instead, (assuming you are rooted), download your choice of "Rashr", or "Flashify" from the market, and use it to flash the stock recovery.img file (attached). I had to zip it because the forum has a 10MB size limit. Just unzip it first and flash with Rashr/Flashify.
Also keep in mind that if you have made any changes to /system (including installing Xposed), the OTA will likely fail to install.

QQ Sam, will that recovery also work for the T-Mobile GSM Version?
Also after flashing the recovery you need to flash twrp again i`m assuming?

Here is the recovery for the T-Mobile variant. It may be the same - I haven't checked the MD5s.
I'm kinda confused as to why you need it though. The XT1053 has been on 4.4.3 for some time. Unless you are still on 4.4.2, and you want to update to 4.4.3....
The 4.4.4 rollout (or even the soak test) haven't started yet.
Regardless, this is what you need for when it does start. Keep in mind (as your probably already know) that if you have modified /system, the update might fail to install. Remember to uninstall Xposed if you are using that before you update as well.
And finally, yes, after you have successfully taken an OTA, you can simply flash TWRP back again.

So... Do I have the right kernel for Att?

I'm on AT&T 4.4.2 stock USA and that's not the kernel I have, not sure if that's what your asking.

Oh wow! That's interesting....
Every Moto X Kernel I've seen (that was signed w/release keys) thus-far has the "hudsoncm" build. Now I'm really curious what is different about this one...
Or are you unlocked and you flashed a custom kernel?? I bet that's it - are you using "faux" kernel or something??

Yes. The other one pictured by the other member posted does not appear to be stock. My guess is that they flashed a custom kernel at some point.
Yours appears to be the stock.
EDIT: upon further research, both appear to be stock Kernels. I'm wondering if the kernel in the SBF differs from the one in the OTA. That's all I can figure. You would *think* that every phone on the same build, whether updated via OTA or SBF/FXZ would have the same kernel build. Apparently not the case....

Is recovery carrier dependent?

ROOT s4 active 5.0.1

1. Download CWM flashable SuperSU 2.46 or newer and put it to device.
2. Flash custom recovery. CWM, Phills or multirom TWRP by Odin.
3. DO NOT ALLOW SYSTEM TO BOOT !!!!!!! after flash. Go directly into recovery bu pressing 3 buttons and install SuperSU.

d8389 method is working, more details explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56955843 about going from stock to custom recovery.
As a XDA member since 2013 you should know about forum rules. Your request is not something you have developed. Questions belong in Q&A or General regardless of phone model.

Thanks everybody.
Sorry for being off topic

Does this work with the Samsung s4 active i537

No. To be able to root, you have to be on kit kat. There is a way to upgrade to lollipop while keeping root, but there is no way to root lollipop directly

Yeah, download this file, extract all four files from inside the .zip, flash all four files with Odin simultaneously (see image below to see what I mean). This will wipe any files and settings you have saved and return the phone to factory condition, so make sure to back up anything important. Also it's a long process (5-10 minutes) and will at some point boot the phone into recovery, it's important to leave the phone plugged in and untouched, let it do its thing until it's fine and boots into kitkat

No problem. Once you're on kitkat, it's really easy to root, you just use towelroot, which is a one-click root app

Then how would I get back to lollipop and keep the root? Are you on lollipop with root?

I am on lollipop rooted and you can be too once you've rooted kitkat with towelroot. This is how you do it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-active/general/how-to-update-to-i537oc6-5-0-1-t3089355

Not if you're already on lollipop, that that's not how factory reset works. Are you asking for the i537 or i9295?

Ok every time I try to post the picture here it screws up, so I'm attaching it to the bottom of this post.
And yes, for the second time, I am on lollipop rooted. And the firmware file I linked you too earlier is for the I537, as I said. I've used it before successfully, multiple times
