So is the only difference between these two threads (this one and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140110) that the other is for the HKTW... orrrrr? =) and thanks anyway, I'm about to use your .zip right now

Worked beautifully when preinstall didn't, thank you

wow! this is awesome!

This is great!!!

I used this to obtain root in OTA 4.5.91 but I'm have some problems. Root explorer and terminal can access root, but Titanium Backup, busybox, and SQLite Editor cant get root access. USB debugging is turned on, and same for 3rd party install.
Anyone have any idea what's causing this?

Can you read/write in root explorer?

can you elaborate. I am in fastboot mode. How do I install CWM?

Hi,
For me, the flashing appears to be successful, but when I boot into recovery I'm getting the stock recovery. I think the issue is with /system/etc/install-recovery.sh, but I have no clue how to remove this file from my phone. I can't change the permissions or the file even with root access. Anyone have any advice?
Thanks!

Droidwall

Would this method (for samsung galaxy Y, which is, if I understand correctly, identical to the S5830I) work to get Droidwall/Iptables to function correctly? (or if there are easier alternatives)
If not, is there any way to get it to work?
Thanks a lot

I agree with the question, as we work to us to Droidwall device??
sorry for my English.

Hey guys,
Since no one seems to know, I just decided to test it and let you all know the result ^^
I downloaded mikstev_add_initd_to_boot.img__kernel_modules_initd_scripts_for_droidwall_v2.zip from that thread and copied modules_droidwall_signed.zip inside of it to the SD card. I then rebooted in recovery mode, applied CWM and installed modules_droidwall_signed.zip using it.
Droidwall still gives an error ("Error applying iptables rules. Exit code:11 iptables v1.4.10 iptables: No chain/target/ match by that name").
So slight update to the original question: is there any way to get droidwall to work?

EDIT: Nevermind. Wasn't wiping dalvik cache. Bricked my phone, probably did something wrong, will try again after recovery.

retribution rom use su binaries in folder /system/xbin --- need remove complet su su-v1 su-v2 su-v3 etc...
delete all files in folder /system/xbin and reboot to CWM.
aply kernel package and reboot to CWM.
aply the droidwall modules and reboot.
check if root is working and try droidwall rules.

After flashing original PDA using Odin, I installed your custom kernel using CWM, rebooted, rebooted into CWM again, installed the module and... wait for it... IT WORKS!
Thanks a lot, all of you!

[ROM] [STOCK] [SO-02E] Rooted 10.1.D.0.343 (w/XZDualRecovery)

UPDATE: If you're already on an unrooted 10.1.D.0.343 - a new exploit has been found so check out this thread to root it.
After much digging through the threads and the net looking for a working Rooted 10.1.D.0.343 ROM for the SO-02E with no luck I decided to make my own and share it to everyone who own the SO-02E variant from Docomo.
This ROM is fully stock with the exception of having Superuser and XZDualRecovery installed. No default files have been tweaked in anyway.
I made this ROM using the guide from [NUT]
All the scripts were made by [NUT] - I just replaced some files to make XZDualRecovery work for the SO-02E.
I am not a developer or anything - I'm just some guy who loves his SO-02E
I tested this on my SO-02E, upgraded from 10.1.D.0.333 to 10.1.D.0.343 and everything works.
No reboot issue when mounting the system as R/W and no issues booting into recovery.
No data is lost and all apps are retained when upgrading so you should be good - but backup your data just in case.
Prerequisite:
Rooted 10.1.D.0.333
Recovery Installed (e.g. XZDualRecovery)
Installation:
1. Copy SO-02E_10.1.D.0.343_system.zip to your SDCard
2. Flash SO-02E_10.1.D.0.343_stripped.ftf with Flashtool (make sure nothing is ticked)
3. Boot straight into recovery
4. Flash SO-02E_10.1.D.0.343_system.zip
5. Clear cache (optional but it doesn't hurt to)
6. Reboot
7. Profit!!!
Special thanks to [NUT] for getting XZDualRecovery working on the SO-02E
Stock Odexed Files:
(I split SO-02E_10.1.D.0.343_system.zip into two files for download so you need to join them with 7zip and copy the .zip file to the SDCard )

Nice to see my guide put to good use, this is exactly why I made it in the first place! :highfive:

Must I join 2 files: "SO-02E_10.1.D.0.343_system.zip.7z.001 and SO-02E_10.1.D.0.343_system.zip.7z.002" before I copy it to SD card?

It's my fault for not be more clear - yes you need to join them with 7zip (or whatever program that recognizes 7z formats). From there you'll end up with SO-02E_10.1.D.0.343_system.zip, copy the .zip to the SD and use TWRP or CWM to flash.
I'll update my OP to make it more clear.

It does have root. What version were you coming from before? If you're already on an unrooted 10.1.D.0.343 then you'll need to downgrade to 10.1.D.0.333 via Flashtool, root it, install XZDualRecovery, then upgrade to 10.1.D.0.343 as written in the OP.

Something about TWRP recovery

Hi guys, I have got a very urgent problem right now, and hope someone can help me out...I am currently using a HTC One M7, and I used the TWRP recovery and the official bootloader or something rooted my phone, the reason why I need root it is that i need a app move into the system apps which may be easier in using it. And after I moved the app into the system apps using Root Explorer and then reboot my phone, the app just disappeared. After tried many times...I think it is because of the twrp just wipe it... do u guys have a method to solve this problem?...really...pls help me out!!

This is not a twrp issue, /system partition is write-protected by the stock kernel, every changes made in the /system partition will be reverted after a reboot. If you want to be able to write to /system when booted in the rom, you'll need a custom kernel with write-protection disabled (pretty much all custom kernels here have this). The other option is to make the changes you want in your /system partition before the stock kernel boots, so using the embedded file manager of twrp recovery for example.
If you want to use a custom kernel, you must choose one that works with your rom type and version. For example, ElementalX kernel will only works for Sense or GPE rom (stock or custom). The version of ElementalX required depends on your android version so newer doesn't mean better, you need the right one. Flashing a custom recovery is done using twrp recovery. When installing the custom kernel, you can choose the features you want to be installed so if you don't want a specific feature that the kernel offers, its not a problem. The write-protection is removed by default.
If using the twrp file manger, boot in twrp select "advanced" ---> "file manager"
Then to move a file, select it (tap on it) then it will open another menu. Select "move" then select the location you want to move it to. There is also a chmod menu to edit the files permissions.

Oh, thanks for answering me~ uh, can u be more specific about how to do that? about the kernel thing? I never did this before and actually this is just my second time to root a phone and try to move an app into system app (as last time i did so there is no such a problem...) Also, about the twrp recovery file manager, tried that one yesterday, and it did not show the " app" folder under the system one, which means i just cannot move it using the twrp file manager...

Yep sorry, should have mentioned that, you always have to mount the partition you want to access when using a recovery. Some are mounted by default, but /system isn't.

MHA-L29C636B172 perfect boot image

Hi guys
if anyone is interested in testing out this boot image i created for my c636b172
removes all encrypt, perfect mounting options for all partitions (this took a while to figure since some caused bootloops)
also reduced voltages for wifi module (may be unstable, if anyone has problems let me know i can try and adjust, otherwise if im not getting problems ill just keep decreasing it)
how to install
1. make sure twp is installed
2. in data/dalvik-cache delete arm and arm64 folders.
3. boot into twrp > wipe cache and dalvik
4. flash the boot image in twrp (flash image select image flash to boot)
5. if you had su installed, flash the zip again
6. go to wipe cache and dalvik again (just in case)
7. reboot and enjoy, theoretically should be slightly faster, and less overhead.
Download
https://www.dropbox.com/s/msda9a3smy9lqb4/modBootv2.img?dl=0
if anyone has a request for their specific boot image let me know and ill add the same values.

Thank you for your work. Is this only for C636 devices or would this work on any device.
Could your reassemble it to add features like DT2W (doubletap to wake)?

i think DT2W is disabled, no flags of it in the boot image, you can try this guide.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/enable-double-tap-to-wake-mate-9-t3580764
the boot image is for the c636, im not sure if you can flash it on another base you can try just have a stock boot.img handy
or to be safe you can send me your boot.img and ill edit it the same.

Thank you for your friendly offer!

no, twrp 3022 doesnt have MTP access right now.

Which advantage is on daily usage. I guess I would have to install supersu again, for it modifies the boot.

Mount does work in 3.1.0. Though you have to tap on "Mount USB Storage", then unmount before it actually mounts..

Using a file Explorer with root support, navigate to /data/dalvik-cache and remove those 2 folders. Alternatively use a terminal app and 'rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache/arm*'.
I guess you could use the file manager or terminal in twrp.
