Hiw do you root your Slide without Screen ?

My Slide just got a Touch Screen Fail message at boot. I am trying to root it so I can try to load a new ROM, to see it it might help.
I can boot phone normally, but I have no touch screen, so I cannot change to USB debug, nor use the phone for anything else.
I need to be able to root it from the Bootloader. Anybody has any suggestion how to remove the S-Off and be able to reflash phone ?
Is there a custom Esprimg file that can help ?

Well you CAN actually use the trackpad to navigate without the touchscreen. Bit difficult, but it can be done. What's the message you get exactly? Even a picture would help

How could you get that if you weren't rooted?
You should take it to T-Mobile and get it replaced.

Afaik, you most likely need the touch screen in order to root. Then again, I am a noob at this stuff. If the touch screen showed as a failure it may be a hardware problem. Other than that you can navigate just fine with the trackpad and select with it or with the keyboard to tick "USB Debugging".

[Q] In Dire Help! Need Fix!? Phone not receiving calls!

Hello!
So I wanted to change my STOCK ROM and get ROOT but without knox so I tried flashing ShinySides STOCK ROM fond here. After flashing the ROM and the kernel. I turned on to find out that WiFI is not working. Scrolled through and the dev said I need to flash the modem. Tried that through Odin 3.07 by selecting phone "PHONE" with only "Auto Reboot" (through Download) mode and that didnt work.
I tried Fennys Kernel with WiFI Fix and the Wifi worked but the phone became super slow. Along with this, my phone doesnt alert me if someone is calling and it only shows after someone has called! Tried flashing Fennys ROM and but error says "aborded (status 7)"
I tried reflashing the kernel on Shinyside using the PDA Option with his software. The Wifi stopped working, and I cant recieve calls and system is slow!
I tried fixing my build.prop but thats not working too!!
I dont know what to do anymore! I really need help! Ive been trying to fix this for 5 hours!
Here are my phone settings saying right now:

Try a double flash.
Uncheck auto reboot in odin
Flash rom then pull battery from phone and usb cable. Reinsert both then boot into odin mode again and flash with auto reboot this time.

What should I flash? What file? Modem? (Sorry if it sounds like im going crazy but my phone is slow, everything crashes, and i cant make or recieve calls cuz the phone app is crashing)
Also, when u say "flash" ODIN? What option do i select? PDA? Phone?

Just flash the latest firmware. Your phone is misbehaving because you matched modems and NON-HLOS. After that you should be back to normal and can flash the rom again with no problems

[Problem] Stuck on turning wifi on

Hey everyone, I tried to install cm13 with dkp kernel and I can't turn on the wifi. It is stuck on "Turning the wifi on".
Anyone has an idea how to fix it?
Thanks
Cordially,
baskwo

Try cm13 without flashing a kernel?
Phone is running the latest bootloader and modem?

Thanks for your reply!
So CM13 without custom kernel is working! Now, should I try an other kernel? Which one give the best SoT at the moment?
Thanks
Cordially,
Baskwo

I'm not sure which kernel would be best as I have not had an s3 for over 1.5 years.

Alright, thank you
Finally, the problem is not solved. After a reboot the phone is still stuck on "Turning the wifi on"
But I saw that my mac address is 02:00:00:00:00:00 and I'm probably sure it's not the real one haha
Is it possible that my problem is an hardware issue?

This wifi issue exists on a stick rom too?

So on stock everything seems fine. Does it mean I'm stuck with stock rom?

No, if you reverted back to stock (I.e. a stock ROM and kernel) then CM13 will run just fine for you. I'm posting this on a I747 running the CM13 20160822 nightly.

I would guess memory is broke or corrupted. (so it's brick) Did it shut itself down when battery went flat? Did it turn off normally?
But normally (if your phone is still able to boot normally) when stuck at "initialization" it's a communication issue, so try use another usb cord, usb port, different version of Odin (older or newer).
Try shut PC & phone down, pull battery reinsert after a minute and try again.
[ didn't newer version of Odin have problem flashing Philz? I'd recommend TWRP from neozone thread anyhow].

Yes, in fact it connects normal but a little before spoiling the philz was running, however, it started installing the AOSP rom and in the middle the screen erased, I suspect it is the hd ... Now it just turns on the Odin and the screen Vibrate and black fics in Recovery mode (no signal). I tried the recovery with 3 different computers and 2 different cables ... several stockroms and several versions of Odin .. but nothing worked.

[solved]Green Writing on Boot & OTA not working after CSC Change. (GWA2)

Hi all,
After flashing my GWA2 (SM-R830) following this guide to change my CSC, there's now Green Writing on my Watch whenever I boot the watch. In addition to that, OTA Updates are now failing.
A person in that post has the same issue as I had and fixed it by flashing stock firmware but that doesn't seem to fix it. I'm back to BTA1 and the green writing still persists as well as OTA still failing. The watch is fully working, except for OTA and said writing.
Anyone got a lead on why that is and possibly how to resolve it?
Edit: Solved it by reflashing it and leaving "Auto Reboot" ticked.

Is that reversible? or am I just stuck with non-working OTA?

Yes it's reversible. Flash this firmware using NetOdin https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ZaoBm2hFXT2QTeZxrS8j4sqqgVyp6Iqo . After that, use Galaxy Wearable to update Tizen to the latest version.

I have exactly the same problem with an Active 2. Can someone point me in a direction toward Firmware to re-flash an 820 too please? (is this just leftover from the combination firmware I used during a region change?)

I simply reflashed the 3-multi files and kept the "Auto Reboot" in netodin ticked.
