[Q] about Unrevoked 3.2.1!!

I need to take my dev for service as I'm having hardware issues, worst case I get it replaced and when I receive the replacement and it comes with the latest update pre-installed, Can i use unrevoked 3.2.1 to Root my phone or do I have to follow the long commands in Adb Shell provided in the guide (how to root 2.2 froyo) in this forums?

Wrong thread.

This belongs in Q&A. I guess some will never learn....

I believe unrevoked can root any veraion, but not 100% sure. Did you take a look at theot wiki page withthe info?

I do not know the answer as well. Move this thread to the question and answer section for the evo and you may get an answer.

If you have nothing nice to say or knowledgeable info for the OP then shut your face

Greetings,
I also have a supersonic. I spent quite some time reading all the related threads, and
the info provided on Unrevoked's wiki(s). There have been several posts indicating that
It does work on the latest OTA (YMMV). I haven't (yet) fetched the latest OTA, but I did
root mine with Unrevoked 3.21, and I was using the most recent version
just prior to the latest OTA. I am happy to report, it couldn't have possibly been
easier, and everything still works as well, as it did prior. In fact, I'd say it works better,
as I now have some better boot/recovery options not previously available.
I might also note, there were several posts confirming that applying the latest
OTA after rooting with Unrevoked 3.21 were all successful.

Is this an OK method to S-OFF?

Can I S-OFF with the Bravo N1Table by using this PB99IMG_bravo_n1table.zip file?
My phone is currently S-OFF with the Bravo Stock 1.8 and I want to use the N1 Table

Check the size of /system and if your rom is less than the Alpharev, you can

Is there a way I can check the MD5 Check on that PB99IMG_bravo_n1table.zip in case it is corrupt?

Better to do a Nandroid backup and see the size of system.img.
I think they havent given the MD5 of pb99img on the site. I dont use that method at all. U could use the "fastboot flash "method. The MD5 of the img is given

Thanks! I just did it via the flashboot method as you suggested, does it look right to you? I wont reboot my phone until you say so
I read somewhere that it can take up to one hour sometimes?

An hour for what? That's for the initial S-OFF process. Your fastboot is done..It takes only milliseconds..It should be ok..If the configuration isnt adequate, you might get Force closes. In that case, reflash stock and restore nandroid.

Desire Z perma rooted - how to unroot?

Hello,
I have a HTC Desire Z with perma root, S-off and Clockwork recovery, however I'd like to update to the latest official rom of Gingerbread. I assume to do this that I have to remove my root, S-off and recovery, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how?
I read that I'm not supposed to flash certain files with S-off or I'll get a bootloop, so could somebody advise me what to do?
This is my specs:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

You've posted in the wrong forum - you need to post in Questions, ideally.
Just installing the official update via RUU (there are guides, search the forum) will put your phone back to stock - but you won't be able to undo the changes without a LOT of work. Why do you even want to do it?
You'd be better finding a modified and rooted version of the latest stock f/w, surely?

Sorry, I Wasn't paying attention to what forum I posted it in.
Could you recommend me a rom that's closest to the latest stock as possible?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837042
This is the most stock you can get with a sense ROM

Thanks, one final question.
Do I need Clockwork Recovery 3.x? I'm on 2.6.x right now and I know that in 3.x they needed new partitions, I assume I'll need to update?

Latest is 5.0.2 but you can just install it through rom manager. to be able to flash GB roms you'll need a recovery higher as 3.x though since this is the one that can change partitions to ext4

just wondering, do you want it stock for the rom or for warranty purposes?

The reason I wanted stock was because I never use root and I didn't want to mess up my phone.
One final final question:
Will my 2.2 Nandroid dumps work on recovery 5.*?

Why does odin keep failing??

I have a Verizon Note 4 N910V running 5.0.1 and trying to flash CF or TWRP fails every time. I've seen on other threads where lack of drivers or other USB devices or reactivation lock solved peoples problems, but I can't find anything that helps me anywhere. I have the correct tar file downloaded and I am attempting to flash it properly.
Here is what I'm seeing:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Thanks for any help.

Doesn't look like you're rooted. Should say "developer."

Your bootloader is not unlocked. You may only flash official/signed Samsung binaries.

I've tried every guide that I can find online to gain temp root for the N910V running 5.0.1 so that I can unlock the BL and flash a custom recovery. How can i accomplish this?

You should be using the search function, but here, here, or here. Thanks to ryanbg and beaups for the exploit. This will get you to an unlocked Lollipop bootloader. I would strongly suggest that you read each thread thoroughly so that you know what you're up against and how to fix the inevitable boo boo.

i had a similar problem...

I had to use Kingoroot on the PC instead of Kingroot. Once rooted I had to leave the phone alone for a few minutes for it to stabilize.

Rooting question N910v just purchased. Can I rooting?

I have read countless post and have been to a dozen websites and I guess I am just confused if I can root this device with the current status, software/updates and security patches.

Yes, you can.
It requires unlocking the boot loader and installing a custom recovery. There are a few threads about it which makes it somewhat confusing. What it boils down to is do you want to use LL or MM to unlock it and once that is done do you wish to use the stock TW LL/MM or a custom ROM (TW/AOSP based).
Easiest to follow instructions here, uses LL to root:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...asy-guide-how-to-root-verizon-galaxy-t3454593
The hybrid way (LL/MM software mix, will require working SIM/Data connection to complete rooting), once done will be full MM based:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...t/howto-bootloader-unlock-upgrade-to-t3398144
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/shortcut-to-rooted-n910vvru2cqi2-t3763451
IF you want to run a custom rom, unlock the bootloader as outlined in the links above, install TWRP and then the ROM of your choice (TW/AOSP).
I just did both ways above not too long ago on a new to me 910v, then I ended up using the files from this post on the modified/hybrid way to root:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76813374&postcount=16
Then I upgraded the partial firmware from here to CQL1:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=15720#downloads
Yes, that means I wiped and rooted all 3 ways linked/described (BPA1, CPD1 & CQI2/CQL1) trying out the files/software. All 3 tries worked fine. I will say for me, Kingoroot worked and kingroot did not. YMMV

Thx for all the info and the great news! I guess I thought that the phone might have been updated to far. I will give it a shot. Thanks again.

Hello, I just bought a N910V with same build number as yours. Did you have a chance to see if it can be rooted? (it seems all the instructions say cannot, just want to confirm. Thanks)

Yes I was able to follow the links and downgrade and unlock the bootloader and root and install a custom rom.
