hi everyone i dont know if anyone here has a fix for this posted here but today i will be letting you know how to fix it and i am sorry if i offend someone by posting this but i like to help people and i belive it will work with any rooted phone but not sure so if it doesnt it work i am not held resposible for somthing you tryed but i am nota pro but this really works
so lets get started
1st: on the market there is a couple apps
2ed:
A.called su binary fix - didnt work for me but try it out
B.busybox installer - onece again didnt work for me but yet again try it out
3ed: last but not least the one that worked for me manully update it through your recovery mode
go here to get the zip file -------> www.androidsu.com/superuser/
download the one you need then boot recovery and then just flash it
then there you go your superuser binuary should be at 3.1.1
i hope this helps and thank you to the one who posted the files online lol
LOL- searched for that !
I do have to say Thank YOU-:good: Funny thing; superuser has been a bad app to me lately < bear in mind, of course, I have no clue what I'm doing and hold NO one responsable for my actions > I had finally figured how to root the phone (1st android interaction on my part, free-searched everywhere). Then, no recov opt's, etc. according to su- as you posted, it was playing a little screwy. So as I'm reading your post, I plugged it in. Lo and behold the su binary went through and updated. I saw the screen "that was cool, do it again". I said "woo-hoo"- don't care if thats corny, anything gets me psyched at this point! Still don't know if that will help- to be honest, i'm unsure of what my next step was and why I was doing that.
So Thank you, I'll know to try this if what I had was a fluke.:silly: yes, lots of silly faces, can't help- i'm excited. I'll tone it down on my next post!

Binary Update
Hello Folks,
Forgive me but I searched the forums and could not find any posts dealing with my problem.
I recently rooted my phone, Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 i545 version 4.4.2, build i545vrufnc5 using Towel Root and used Root checker to verify. Root checker states it is rooted and I am using SuperUser Elite v3.1.3 however the outdated binary notification shows outdated binary (-rwxr-xr-x is in red) and when I tap to update I get the message "downloading manifest...... fail!? When I then hit "try again" I get "unfortunately superuser has stopped" and it closes. I also downloaded SU Updater and ran it, no help. I also have Busy Box and Root Explorer and Titanium Backup installed. su binary shows v1.99:supersu (0). There are no apps showing in su and I get no prompts when adding new apps to allow or deny? I am new at this and really ready to unroot and say the heck with it. I seen several posts about downloading a zip of the file and saving to sd card. Do I need a zip program first and how do I move it to the sd card if that is the case? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
J-

Today I again unlocked my bootloader to test out the latest CM. After doing so I flashed Elite kernel by Rayman and went back to my stock ROM.
Then I followed this guide to get Music info working on unlocked bootloader. It uses SemcMetaData.apk from the T JB leak. The method worked and download music info is functional.
HOWEVER, now I also have Bravia WORKING for videos. This is not placebo, I know the difference between Bravia on and off. I pause the video and turn Bravia on/off in settings, than back to video and it works. The saturation gets increased and it's fully functional.
Perhaps if we get the CredentialManagerService.apk from the same leak and put it to system app, maybe Bravia will work for pictures as well? Please someone post the CredentialManagerService.apk from DoomLord's JB leak.

I just flashed this kernel. Then followed this guide. Just clear data for Download Music Info and copy the attached file to system>app with correct permissions, then reboot.

Yes, but only for video(using the stock movie app). Pictures are still without BE.
I tried the CredentialManagersService.apk from DoomLord's leak but it doesn't work. BE still works for movies but not for pictures, it also breaks download music info(it says security error). The file is not for our device, it's not even recognized under Settings>Apps as installed.

As far as i can remember, unlocking bootloader never affected BE for video, BE only stopped working when watching photos in album app.
Be it stock ICS or JB BE works for video regardless of bootloader status.

No matter what, could you please add a meaningful and precise title to this thread? A thread with no title really doesn't help anything.
You can remove stuff like Xperia Link
This message was brought to you by my Sony Xperia M (C1905), using the XDA app.
Hi...
You can use titanium backup app. It can be used to back up apps. You can remove unwanted stock apps present. Its safe to back up n then remove apps.. hope this helps
Remove/Freeze Apps
You can definitely remove apps from your android device if its rooted. But there's a possibility that you might require those apps sometime in the future, so if space isint a problem for you, i'd advise you to freeze those apps. Freezing those apps can be done through LINK2SD app, which can be found in the play store. You can just click on the app select actions and select freeze. This will prevent the app from running/executing. But will remain installed on your phone. So its as good as "deleting" the app. But whenever required, you can just go back, and unfreeze the app and start using it from where you left it. This is a method i prefer more because you never know when you might need an app. And you needn't even reboot for changes to take effect.
If you're bent on uninstalling a system app, then you can use Titanium Backup or ES File Manager (Both of which are found in play store).
I personally have freezed the following apps... They consume RAM in the background and are of little value to me...
Devices, Drag&Share, Email, Exchange Services, Google Play Magazines, Screen Mirroring, Smart Connect, Sony Select, Xperia app Share, Xperia Calendar Sync, Xperia FB Setup, Xperia Friends Music, Xperia FB Proxy, Xperia Twitter Proxy, Xperia Social Engine Photos FB, Social Engine Picasaweb, Xperia Social Engine Sharing, Xperia Twitter Setup.
Removing app from Xpera M 1905 & general advices
Many thanks everybody for your fast replies.
First of all, alvinhochun, I apologize. I'm very sorry, it seems I am more noob than I'd thought. It will not happen again, "I hope". Antrikos48, thank you for your advice.
vivek p08, I've already installed Titatunium. At this moment I'm trying to learn how to make a complete backup of my device to my pc instead of the sd card. I want to backup the rom or firmware as well (I don't know the difference). It is just to prevent just in case I brick my phone. I've read it is necessary to revival the phone. (flash it with the original factory set up).
ckrishnakanthc, thank you for your clear and detailed explanation. I wonder if it would be possible to freeze apps, using settings-application- open the app an disable. I've read that LINK2SD app, is very useful to move things to the sd card, too. Actually, I'm trying to get more ram memory. I'm reading and leaning more about all this stuff. Finally, I'll try to swap Internal Memory to External following the guide in the forum. In the meanwhile, I'll begin to freeze apps and back up the entire phone (rom -firmware). Then, I'll start working on swap internal memory to sd card. I'll try to get more ram. I don't know if it is necessary to make sd card partition to get it. But first of all, I should understand what it means xd.
FYI some people posted FTF (firmware) files on the forums but if you want your own use clockworkmod. If you need help swapping the storage I can help you as I've already done it.

Thank you very much for your offer, I would appreciate your help a lot. Firstly, I'm going to to make a copy of my FW. I've downloaded a C1905 15.1.C.1.17 aerialus indo FW. Now, I'm going to use clockworkmod,to backup my FW, as you recommend me . My next step, will be swap the memory though I really scare to brick my phone
Try the commands on a terminal emulator first before making them on boot. That way there's no way of bricking or reboot looping. Just make sure you have full root.

Hi. Antrikos48, Although, I look forward to be able to do all this, for the moment, I don't have enough knowledge. It gives me a little shame, but I'm still trying to understand how to make the backup with clockworkmod. I do not understand the difference between FW and Rom and I don't know what is an emulator. Currently, I'm still trying to find out which apps should I use to backup the phone: ClockworkMod Tether (non-root) or Rom Manager .I'm absolutely messed up. For now, I'll try to get a backup. Again, I thank your offer and all the help you offer me. Perhaps, you could help telling me what to read first, which post, etc.
Thanks

CWM for Xperia M.
Use Titanium Backup to backup your apps.
Terminal Emulator I was referring to.
Reading this can help.
Lol, yeah Disable function too works pretty much the same way, but you should understand that
1. A downloaded app cannot be disabled. For example, if you have downloaded Subway Surfers, or some such app, it can be Force Stopped, or Uninstalled. You cannot Disable.
2. Not all pre-installed apps can be disabled, for example you'll notice that you can go to settings>apps>all and you can disable themes and many others, but you cannot disable stuff like about playstation certified, etc..

I accidentally removed my system apps. HELP!
I accidentally removed many important apps through "System App Remover (Root)". And now when im trying to open it and restore them from recycle bin, it keps crashing. Most of my apps (even settings) are not even opeing. Please, help me, i dont care if my data stays or not but help me revive my phone.
only ever dealt with android products such as my tab pro, note 3/4. but just purchased and received my pumpkin kd-c0250 headunit.
had a quick look and seen someone recommend new/custom firmware.
Stock music player seems a bit **** too but integrates with the home screen which i tried with shuttle music player and that doesnt, unless its possible to add it as a wiget?
also im guessing a universal root for 4.4.4 should work to get me root access too?
just looking to see what others can recommend as a good starting point for making the headunit "better" all round. sorry if this gets posted once a day or anything

If you are new to Android, the first thing I would suggest is looking at replacing the Launcher. This will give you a lot more freedom
to add widgets for things like Shuttle and other apps you may want to try. I would also leave the ROM stock for as long as you can stand to do so. Take notes as you work with the stock ROM of the changes you would like to make, and search through the threads here to find if
you can make them without flashing to a custom ROM.
Rooting this unit is quite simple by using the temporary root method. Enter *#hct#root# as the password when opening System Settings.
DO NOT REBOOT. First go to the Play Store and Install the SUPERSU app by CHAINFIRE Once you have done that, let the system reboot,
and then go back to System Settings and enter the password adboff This will turn off the temporary factory SuperUser app, but you will still be able to use the CHAINFIRE SUPERSU app you installed to control root access of your apps.
I will say that if you want to jump in off the deep end, Malaysk has put together some awesome stuff.
I started with a DSA Rooted Stock Rom and installed APEX Launcher, mostly because it let me get started with a built in root,
and it also gave me 2 or 3 GBs to install other apps where the Stock ROM from the Factory only had a 1 GB partition.
Have Fun, and
Good Luck,
Rick
Sidenote:
the code *#hct#root# did not work with my KD-C0250, if it does for Harmonial i'de like to know
Installed one of the stock rooted Roms and entered the code and it worked. Dunno if it would have worked on the original rom.
There's as music app in the system/app folder. (Or is it /apk) at work and can't check.
That hash better layout for the library I like, but for the life of me I can't get it to open other than when it boots on startup with auto player from the likes of the headunit app.. Anyone got any idea on that front? Tried installing the apk and it does it successfully but no icon to open it, or even the option to open once done like with usual apks, just a "done" button

Oh ok, still on the original rom here, thanks for the info!
Still cant get my head around this music app thing.
the one that has an icon and is the only one i can open is the default "mtcmusic3" app.
the one that will start on boot with the headunit app is just called "music" and is in the system/app folder.
Info on the app when i check it out is "version 4.4.4-eng.meng.20150806.-211037". would really like to just run that as standard. but if i exit out of it at any point i can only seem to reopen it via booting the head unit again, no shortcut on the launcher to open it.
