Hey ladies and gents of the xda community, so I installed factory image 4.3 for maguro (without g wallet) flashed my twrp 2.6 and then used the supersu exploit that was made labeled [SuperSU-JWR66N-S005-130625-1.41.zip] to root my phone, yay it worked(kinda), tried titanium backup to remove system apps like Google currents and was told could not locate apk. So I searched and searched and found this post that the same op said to download [UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.43.zip] so I flashed that.
This is what I keep getting from TB:

Is it just titanium backup? Or the root exploit?
My build is the JWR66V for maguro(obviously).
Can anyone help? Any advice is greatly appreciated!
SOLUTION EDIT : apparently it IS titanium backup. I manually removed them with root explorer (/system/app, /data/app) and it went great.

It's titanium backup use any root browser to remove the apps i assume you can get Jrummy's root browser it can remove those files, why it says it can not locate file is due to being removed once "with titanium backup" the apps are being moved to /data/app/ thats why tb can't find the apps located since its "magically moved" to /data/app/ kind of strange and i think its Superuser or App issue from Titanium backup 4.3 that isn't fully compatible
Do you guys also face issues restoring from tb in 4.3? I find that most of my restored apps with data do not work.

Did you change the location of backup folders? If so I'm not entirely sure. I used TB to uninstall apps, I usually just backup all my android/data and android/obb on my PC by copying with USB, never really liked using an app for backups. I tried on stock 4.3 and it didn't work so I just located them myself with my root file manager program.
Sorry I'm not of much help, I'll see what links I can dig up!
Thanks! Actually I need titanium backup more for restoring apps like games and kindle where I want to pick up where I left. No worries, I think it is a titanium backup problem, which will probably be gone when they update their app for android 4.3

Works fine here on 4.3, titanium backup has always worked like normal on 4.3 for me an I haven't had to change or fix a thing.
Hmmm, that's weird, I also flashed 4.3 from the yakju factory image via fast boot (and wiped my data too). I also changed the backup path from 0 to legacy. Did you try uninstalling systems apps using tb? Mine will give an error and I had to delete the apps manually via file explorer.

I never wiped my data when flashing the yakju 4.3 factory image as mskip toolkit gives you the option to keep it like a normal ota would do even when flashing full factory image.

My tibu backup folder location is still in 0 location not legacy an system apps can be uninstalled an restored just fine on 4.3.
Interesting point, though i just to check and my 0 and legacy folders are still mirrors of each other (as it was in 4.2), so I can access my tb folder in either and I'm not sure if the problem is here... Actually I wiped my sd card intentionally to start 4.3 on a clean state, thought this would result in the least number of problem...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Yeah I'm not sure either, I also flashed the Google yakju with fastboot and I DID try uninstalling a system app with TB first. Maybe that created my problem. @fux0r99 that's pretty cool that nothings wrong with your setup, however WE are having something go wrong so please refrain from telling us how great yours is running.
However thank you for the folder information, it all helps!

Since Chrome can't download ZIP files correctly, I have to use the Stock Browser. But when I download a ZIP, it says download unsuccessful. Then I go and tap on the file to see the issue and it says "Download failed: not enough memory."
I have like, 10+ GB avaliable on both my SD Card and Internal storage, so I don't understand the issue. The ZIP file is 22MB.
I am on FreeGS3 as well.

Pictures, personal files, backups, your rom zip etc...
Check your back ups you should never have more than one or two back up nandroid those take huge amount of space.
Just keep in mind anything on storage is either important to you personally but not to the phone, there won't be any system files necessary to the operation of the device.

awesome, i'll have to try this in the morning.
I would be careful following those directions. After many hours of countless testing (see here), I've come to the conclusion that those directions are best suited for people running roms on 4.1.1 and not 4.1.2. If the rom you are running is based on the N7100 or N7105 4.1.2, then don't use any of the NFC APKs and LIBs from that file. It will actually cause more problems. Instead, just do the following.
1. Change build.prop to the following:
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
2. Reboot.
3. Copy the wallet apk from the zip file included in the post to /system/app/
4. Change permission of the file. Under the "Read" check owner, group, and others. Under "Write" check owner and press ok.
5. Reboot.
6. Open wallet and set everything up (add your account and add your cards.)
7. Change your build.prop back to default.
8. Reboot.
9. Profit

Sorry about that!
Currently, I am on CleanRom 3.3 - 4.1.2. Rogers SGH-i317m.
Like I said earlier, I followed everything to the letter. While installing Google Wallet, once I copy the apk into my /system/app folder and reboot, the Wallet apk disappears. The reason why it disappeared is because for some odd reason, Titanium Backup froze the app, so I defrosted, and there it was. Though, when I continued the steps, wallet apk kept force closing.

Hmm. Did at any time did you flash the NoteII-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip or use the nfc apks from that file? If you did, you must start over and reflash your phone with a fresh install of Cleanrom 3.3. Also be wary of restoring from TiBu. Especially if you ran a backup after flashing or using any of the files from NoteII-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip. Because if you did, it updates like 270 apps on your phone and those backups are no longer good for use. I ran into similar issues and didn't realize where the issue was coming from. Until I realized I was restoring a bad TiBu.
Also, just making sure, but when you installed the Google Wallet app, you used the Apk from the NoteII-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip right and not from the Play Store? Also, you shouldn't install the apk, you are supposed to just copy it to the /system/app folder.

Same thing happened to me so I opened it afte4 rebbot kept gettn force close. So I deleted it rebooted and downloaded from the play store. From there I set it up with my pin and added a card. Then I went to data/app and ONLY deleted*not uninstalled* the wallet apk and rebooted. Now I took the apk from the zip file and placed it in the system/app folder, set corredt permissions and rebooted again. Then I opened up the wallet apk again and had no errors. Just to be sure I rebooted once more and tried the wallet app again. No errors so I changed my build.prop back to normal. App still runs with no errors. Will report back later today when I try using it at mcdonalds. Hopefully this towns mcdonalds nfc payment reader works.
Btw I did not use any of the apks or files besides the wallet apk in the zip before getting a force close on wallet.

I got google wallet working 100% on CleanRom 3.3. I've spent many hours testing with many of the different procedures on xda (see here). These are the steps I took.
1. Downloaded the NoteII-lib_nfc-fix-r87.zip file this thread.
2. Extract just the com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-r87-v15.apk and copy it to /system/app and change permissions. For "Read" check owner, group and others. Under "Write" just check owner.
3. Next, navigate to your build.prop in your /system and edit it to mirror the Galaxy Nexus.
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
4. Reboot.
5. Open Google Wallet and add accounts and cards.
6. If Wallet force closes on you then proceed to step a. If not go to step 7.
a) Delete the com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-r87-v15.apk from /system/app.
b) Reboot.
c) Install Google Wallet from the Play Store.
d) Run Google wallet and setup your account and cards.
e) Delete the wallet.apk from /data/app
f) Copy the com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel.modaco.1.5-r87-v15.apk to /system/app and change permissions.
g) Reboot.
h) Open wallet again and make sure the accounts and cards are all there.
7. Change build.prop back to original.
8. Reboot.

I have a rooted AT&T Galaxy Note II.
Found this article on how to flash the phone so that apps can be put on the external SD card rather than the internal.
It looks easy. Could probably do it in under 5 minutes. The benefits, it seems, would be enormous.
Here is my major concern....
When AT&T pushes the next major update (I already have Jellybean 4.1.2), it will erase the root.
When that happens, will my phone go bezerk because the apps are not where they are supposed to be by default?
Is it always possible to immediately re-root a phone no matter what update is being pushed?
Also...
If an an app has a Google Play Store update to be downloaded, will it update the app if it is sitting on the external card?
[/QUOTE] When AT&T pushes the next major update (I already have Jellybean 4.1.2), it will erase the root.
Well if you're rooted and running a custom rom its likely the developer will take the updated source and update his custom rom, so no real reason to let your phone update from your carrier. And you can turnaround and root it again anyway.
When that happens, will my phone go bezerk because the apps are not where they are supposed to be by default?
From the article it isn't 100% clear but there was a hint that said the path was being modded so I don't anticipate your phone going berserk... And to test my hypothesis I'm gonna flash this in a minute and report back.
Is it always possible to immediately re-root a phone no matter what update is being pushed?
Yes.
Also...
If an an app has a Google Play Store update to be downloaded, will it update the app if it is sitting on the external card?[/QUOTE]
Again the article only hints to this but the only real way to know is to try it out, which I'm gonna do right now.

LittleRedDot,
Wow. How cool to have you here almost "live" testing this modification.
I am not running a custom rom. Just plain 'ol rooted on Jellybean 4.1.2.
I am also wondering if I need to copy all my files over the external SD card or this modification does it for you.
Look forward to your findings and will follow your advice before trying this. May have more questions as well. Will stay tuned.
Again, the link for everyone else watching this thread.
When AT&T pushes the next major update (I already have Jellybean 4.1.2), it will erase the root.
Well if you're rooted and running a custom rom its likely the developer will take the updated source and update his custom rom, so no real reason to let your phone update from your carrier. And you can turnaround and root it again anyway.
When that happens, will my phone go bezerk because the apps are not where they are supposed to be by default?
From the article it isn't 100% clear but there was a hint that said the path was being modded so I don't anticipate your phone going berserk... And to test my hypothesis I'm gonna flash this in a minute and report back.
Is it always possible to immediately re-root a phone no matter what update is being pushed?
Yes.
Also...
If an an app has a Google Play Store update to be downloaded, will it update the app if it is sitting on the external card?[/QUOTE]
Again the article only hints to this but the only real way to know is to try it out, which I'm gonna do right now.

Ok the mod didn't work for me. I downloaded the exfat mod for custom kernel cause my sd isn't formatted and I'm running a custom kernel...
It flashed fine and upon reboot the apps went through the optimization process... Then rebooted, then was in a boot loop for 3 cycles, then got stuck on the samsung screen. I had to manually put it in recovery and restore and known good nand.
I'm gonna format my sd card and try another download, but for now my advice would be to search for another method.

LittleRedDot,
Discouraging to hear, but very much appreciate you being the guinea pig and offering to test this out.
I will stay away from this and look for other methods to move my data to my SD card.
Thank You again

Ok I ended up downloading the fat32 for custom kernel and it work, all 234 apps are installed on my external sd freeing up over 3 gb of storage on my internal sd.
Unable to post pics right now cause the server is overloaded, but I'll edit this post when it let's me. All in all I'd say my original advice is null as I downloaded the wrong file. Good find mate.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Oh...okay...so this actually WORKS.
Now the questions...
1. Did it automatically take all your apps from your internal drive (that existed there already) and moved them to the external?
2. Does it look like any future downloads I do from the Google Play Store will automatically install the app on the external card or do I have to manually move it?
You have already assured me that if a new update is pushed to my Note II that I can immediately re-root it so my phone doesn't get screwed up with the new app locations.
Thanks for all your assistance

1. Yes it moved them automatically. Using a strong file manager I can see them on my external sd card.
2. Yes any updates save to the external sd card. I confirmed this but manually updating 14 apps and they all saved to ex sd
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Wow, this procedure sounded too good to be true -- but it turned out to be the real thing.
...and it moved all the apps, and the apps can be updated in their new location.
What more could one ask for? Going to try this procedure for myself in a few minutes and will report back.
I can't thank you enough for taking the time to try this out.

Make sure you do a backup first and download the correct file. For you, based off what you told me, would be the fat32 for stock kernel.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Are chances pretty good I'll be okay without doing the backup? I won't hold you responsible if something goes wrong.
What do you use to backup? I use MyBackup Pro, but lately it freezes in the middle of backing up. I do have Titanium Root but I never backed up with it before so I will have to try and figure out how to do it.
But again, if things went pretty smoothly for you and I can escape a backup then for me, all the better.
And yes, I was ready to do the Fat32 kernel. That is the format I erased my card in.

You said you were rooted, do you have cwm or twrp installed?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I know cwm is Clockwork Mod. No, don't have installed because I don't install Mods. I am happy with a standard root.
What is twrp? I can easily download it if you recommend it for backup purposes.
Let me know what you recommend me doing.

If I were you, before I flash anything I would download goo manager from the play store, use it to install the latest TWRP recovery, the go into recovery and do a backup, then flash this sd card mod.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
LittleRedDot,
Having some difficulty flashing.
I downloaded both Fat32 files and got the same result. An E:signature verification failure during flash.
I think the correct file I needed for my stock Jellybean was Mod file for fat32 SD card (stock kernel with init.d support)
Downloaded it to my download directory on external card.
Rebooted into recovery mode (Power, Volume Up, Home Key)
Scrolled down to Install from Download
Found the downloaded file and selected it.
That is where I get the E:signature verification failure.
Any idea what may be going wrong here?
(BTW, backed up the phone to the external drive using Titanium Root. Hope it was okay to backup everything to the same drive I was flashing the drive from)

Go into settings and find the option to download from unknown sources, I think it's in the developer options, and click it, then erase the previous downloads and re-download the file.

Script manager won't work because I didn't successfully Mod the phone.
Not sure why it is not working but every time I go into recovery mode and select APPLY UPDATE FROM EXTERNAL STORAGE
and then locate the .zip file in my download directory, I get the signature failure and the update aborts.
I'm trying to flash Vanilla Rootbox (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254185) but it doesn't show up when I go to install from TWRP. It's in the root storage when I view it on my laptop, but not when I go into recovery. What do I need to do? Thanks.

Still not showing up. I'm coming from VectuS, not sure if that matters. And I've got plenty of room on my sd card. Trying to download the 6.10.13 build test.
Another update: No ROM's are showing up. I just downloaded AOKP by Spleef and dragged it to the root of my storage, went into TWRP, and it's not there. What's the deal?
If their %100 did you click SD card then put into a folder like downloads?

No. I opened the internal storage from the computer and dragged the .zip over to that.

Also by storage you mean the internal SD card right? You can make a folder in the SD card to put it in or if you like put it on the root of the sdcard

How do I flash CWM? TWRP was on this phone when I bought it, and I just started getting the hang of flashing ROMs. Is it the same for recoveries?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I can find a link, I prefer twrp, before you try downloading root browser lite app (free). And try downloading a ROM again to PC or laptop.
And also try downloading straight to phone. For phone once downloaded make sure you have gapps, then boot into twrp click install, then go to downloads to see if Roma there.( if so go back wipe cache davlik data and system, then install ROM then gapps.
From laptop PC, hook up phone make sure ROMs complete. Open up SD card folder above storage then drag ROM and gapps to download and flash sorry if this is messy I'm multi tasking.....

Yes clockworkmod recovery is like team win recovery partition. I'll look for a flash able version, I've been flashing ROMs for alil while but new posting here, mostly trying to he able to post in development section to find ppl to work on rootbox started by LaSalle but he left and spleef is trying to start.
Make sure downloads from unknown sources is allowed under settings/security also.
I'll try to help as much as I can, downloading straight to phone should work with goo manager( free plays store)

Yep, aware of the beta.
Their own app was not restoring data for me, did you ever try it?
On Gummy now and way happier, may actually keep the device now. Can't believe how much nicer the touch response is, will be watching battery today but may actually keep the device now!
No haven't tried to restore data yet with own app but I hope it works if I need it.

Also be aware that if you install the release software version of 1.2 (001) Ti was working. You can then create a folder on your sd with Ti before updating, update to 002 and it will work. Both there and after updating to 003 but you have to create the folder on 001. I haven't tested 004 yet.

Hi everyone
I have a problem. I am on the X9006_002_140419 version which the phone came with and I am not able to perform a complete TB backup with it (known issue). Now I tried to upgrade to the nevest OTA version by using the stock recovery. Only problem is that the OTA wipes all data.
My question is if there is a way to upgrade to the newest OTA without loosing all the app data. Is there an OTA version (003 or 004) which does not wipe all data?
My phone is rooted and I am using TWRP 2.7.0.0 custom recovery.
Thanks everyone for any help.

Me neither.
But I think that oppo's OTA doesn't work with TWRP recovery installed.
So, people who use that kind of setup must use a modified version of the OTA file to update the phone through TWRP, and maybe that wipes their apps and settings.
Well what I did was reverting back the recovery to stock recovery and then applying the original otas. Although I did it that way it wiped all my apps and data.
What I did now was a full wipe and installed the full 003 package, then the 004 ota and reinstalled and setup all apps.
Result: TB is still not working although I am on 004 which should work with TB. Any further help?

Hi, The only way I could get it to work was, Full wipe and then install full 001
package but did not allow the phone to sync any data, then I let the phone perform the ota update of 004. I then installed TB and tested if it works, which it dose, then I let the phone sync and install my apps and tested again.
