Anyone got a root going for the new straight talk (verizon) Samsung Proclaim S720C ?
This will be great for me an affordable phone on straight talk with verizon coverage all I need is root
Has anyone tried the one clikc root fo this phone? I havnt been active on the site for close to 2 years so did some back reading and have seen stuff on the one clikc root but hate to be the first to try it as im not the most tech savy here
Im wanting this phone too! Im just trying to find official word if its verizon. Im sure theres a root for the phone somewhere its an old droid.
It is Verizon for sure I got my daughter one and my father one as well since verizon is the only carrier who gets service where my father lives except US cellular. The phone works great.
In the rural area we are in you have slim pickings as to what carrier has good service in certain areas.
Verizon has great coverage in this area but their contract phones are a bit pricey for my father and daughter's usage. But to get Verizon coverage on an android pre paid with straight talk is just a win/win for me. The only thing is that I really would like to root these phones so that they can use wifi tehtering in a pinch.
Its not going to be very often but sure is handy when you need it.
at the moment I have them set up for USB tethered sharing for internet when they have to have it mobile.
Id be willing to donate if someone takes up the challenge of rooting the Proclaim/illusion
I'm not currently a developer, but between the Proclaim and the Illusion I would think there's enough of an audience to develop something for these phones. The user group should be rather large.
I got it! But I hope we can get a trusted root. I'm afraid the straight talk software will go buggy if I root it. And I want to go over to ice cream.
I got one too - the proclaim and looking for a root. Please help XDA developers!

Do you have problems since you rooted when connecting the phone to your computer via USB? I've read there are problems with that once root is performed based on the link I provided above.
How long have you been rooted cozmo?

Figured out how to get the MSL code!
So after spending too much time at this I happened over an interesting method.. and that was to simply use the free LauncherPro and create a shortcut on the main screen for com.android.hiddenmenu.advanced. You simply install LauncherPro and hold down on the main screen to create a shortcut then go into Activities and scroll down to com.android.hiddenmenu and there are a ton of options there. A lot of them will not actually open up even when you try this method but advanced will open and ask for a SPC code and when it fails aLogCat will log the correct code!!
So to sum it up
1. Download LauncherPro
2. Download alogcat & use msl filter
3. Create a shortcut/activities
4. com.android.hiddenmenu.advanced
5. open the shortcut and type in a bad SPC
6. Success you have now logged your SPC in alogcat.
Nm.. I went ahead and took a look but it does not appear like the hiddenmenu contains any references to the "secret code(s)" and I know creating a shortcut to ETS Channel fails.. so maybe it is the hiddenmenu.apk? Otherwise I am not sure how to fix it if the phone is lacking in some way.

Hey guys there is this problem I'm having is that when I'm in the Rom kitchen there is an option to add task killer,when I'm entering it it tells me:
FOREGROUND_APP_MEM = NOT FOUND
though I'm on stock Rom which it asks for

What kitchen do you use?
That task killer can be easily added manually into build.prop
FOREGROUND_APP_MEM= value
but why do you want to add this?
android already has this in its kernel. only if you want to make it more aggresive you should play with this settings.
Im using dsixda kitchen,also I'm adding it cz its saying that it makes the Rom faster(most important thing) I care about

TeamViewer release an app that allows remote control of your phone from your comptuer called QuickSupport. It says that it is only for Samsung phones and tablets.
The app stops itself from running on the Nexus. I contacted TeamViewer and they said that the Nexus isn't a Samsung device, it's a google device.
Does anyone know how liberate the program so it will work on the Nexus?

not sure whats stopping them but it looks like they want to offer it to other devices as well besides samsung.
as far as stock firmware its probably a security issue where if your phone has root access and someone say gets your teamviewer password they can technically login, go nuts with you phone, and brick it and all while you never realizing what just happened
Touchpad can do anything!

My nexus have stock fw by google, anyone have TeamViewer QS for stock not rooted rom by google?
It's a very useful app! Why they do not want to support all smartphones' manufactors?
Flashing this zip should allow you to use the Google Wallet app on your Verizon HTC One.
Now, I've tried it on mine, and it works fine, but I'm on the NOS ROM, version 1.0.1 from newtoroot, so I don't know if it works on other ROMs, so if you want to give it a shot, make sure to make a backup through Clockwork or TWRP first.
Also, if it doesn't work, try uninstalling and reinstalling the Google Wallet app.
If it doesn't work with other ROMs, then please upload your ORIGINAL build.prop, and I will do my best to keep up with making the changes and uploading the proper zips as quickly as possible.
The way this works is it just replaces the build.prop under the system folder with an edited version that allows the app to work by making it think it's a different phone that the app works with. So, if you have any issues because of the changed build.prop, let me know.
DOUBLE LINKS FOR MORE POWAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Thanks for this, but I believe it belongs in the Themes & Apps section
So we just flash this in recovery? I am currently on NOS ROM 1.0.2. This is going to be fantastic if it works!! I thought we were never going to be able to use Google Wallet.
EDIT: Looks like it works fine on NOS ROM 1.0.2. I am going to test it out on Tuesday at work. Hopefully it works!

You can flash it now, just boot into recovery if you have a custom recovery installed.
Google Wallet on VZW CDMA HTC One
You obviously got an HTC One day one, unlocked, and custom recovery. I was waiting to hear more about whether or not our CDMA version of the HTC One had the Secure Element inside it, like the Sprint One does, and unlike the GSM One.
This post leads me to believe there is a Secure Element inside the VZW One. You have installed it and verified it working at a PayPass merchant?
I know that I missed the boat for now on bootloader unlock, but this is the last bit of information I need before throwing my support behind the HTC One on Verizon.
Thanks for this thread and the zip, OP!
Strange, I flashed it, and it doesn't seem to work, Google wallet gives me an error when I open it . What's even more weird is that I Skyped with a friend immediately before and after I flashed it and after it gave me this strange hue, only affecting the front facing camera. When I restored, it went away. This is on stock rom debloated with gray the wolf's mod.

You have to be boot loader unlocked.
It didn't work with Andybones' Bonestock ROM. So I did a quick restore.
Should I post my original build.prop?

I was able to install it and everything on NOS 1.0.2, but I tried to use it today at a vending machine and was unsuccessful. My NFC credit card worked fine. It recognized the phone and everything but payment was unsuccessful.
I wonder if this means the Verizon HTC One lacks secure element for payments?
NaitsirkC, have you been able to make NFC purchases with this mod?
I'm confused. Can we not download it from gapps?

You can, but it won't work when you try to open it and use it because Verizon blocks it. This mod will allow you to use the app. It just doesn't seem to work for NFC payments for me right now.

You can download it but you get an error when you try to run it saying it is not yet available for your device or mobile network. As I understand this is a Verizon only thing...I believe they are trying to push their own solution.
Awesomeness. I'm so pissed I missed out on bootloader unlock. Im enjoying a stock phone for the time being but man Verizon is turning into the "crapple" of Android!!!

Not so fast though. This allows Google Wallet to function on the phone, but I am not entirely sure the Verizon HTC One is able to make NFC purchases. Hoping NaitsirkC can chime in regarding if he has had success making NFC payments.

Unless the VZW One is different then the GSM variant's, then Wallet won't work. The only HTC that is confirmed to have a Secure Element is the Sprint HTC One. I'm guessing that the VZW One doesn't have an SE and will rely on the NFC sim card that works with ISIS mobile payments. This special sim card has the SE built into it and ISIS looks to it to initiate payments. Google Wallet is not coded to look for an SE on a sim card, and I doubt that will change anytime soon.
If anyone is interested, look into SimplyTapp. They are working on a cloud based Secure Element that won't require the SE to be on the phone, thus enabling NFC devices like the DNA and VZW One to use a mobile payment system.

Yeah, the camera issue happened to me too, I'm working on a fix for it though. As for it not working, it's possible that there is too much of a difference between the build.prop on stock compared to the NOS ROM that it just simply doesn't work on stock.

If you'd like, I'll try to make some time to edit it if you post it. If you want to try to do it yourself, just open up your build.prop, find the following values:
ro.product.model=
ro.product.name=
ro.product.device=
(these should all have something HTC related after the '=', I'm at work right now though and can't check to see what they are by default)
and change them to this:
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
After doing this, save the edited build.prop to your SD card, because without S-off, it will get changed back after rebooting (unless the updated NOS ROM actually has system write support now, which I can't find out from any of the discussions, and don't want to flash it until all the bugs get worked out). After saving it, you'll need to put it into a flashable zip. If you don't have one, there's one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2418856
Make sure it's under the system folder; if it gets flashed to any other location, it won't work. Rezip, then flash away.

I haven't actually tried making any transactions on it, I just got the app working. Has anyone been able to make a successful purchase using this? If not, then it's kind of useless, and I apologize for wasting your time with it If it is working for some people, however, then can anyone tell me if they've been having the same issue with the camera as the first person I quoted? If it is working for some people, then I'll work on fixing it.
I am starting to do my research since i'm looking for a newer budget phone.. This Moto Z Play seems to be a great phone for my needs / wants.
I am getting confused because I know there is a Droid (verizon) version and an International version. Specifically when it relates to ROOT.
Does anyone know if XDA will split this forum into a Verizon and International Version? (I see this on most other phones / variants)
Thank you.
There is no reason for xda to split the international vs the droid version. The droid version will never get an official bootloader unlock and likely will not get an unofficial bootloader unlock. The only way to root the droid version is to use the dirty cow exploit which works on both versions. In the unlikely event that the droid version gets a bootloader unlock and rom support, roms may support both devices due to the hardware being the same aside from the radios. Even if they didnt it would be easy to tell which is which because devs would put [XT1635-01] for the droid version and [XT1635-02] for the international.

I have not tried it, but it is supposed to work with every android phone that has not recieved an ota for a couple weeks (even then it might still work). I dont have a link to anything and i dont know if xda would allow me to post or pm a link either, so you will have to use google. There is a github with a proof of concept that may or may not work.

perhaps.. I just get picky using my physical buttons all of the time. So I enjoyed either custom ROMs that had power menu button, screen shot, and sleep all baked in. Or use xposed to get those features using gravity box.
but I saw the moto z play lets you wake and sleep with fingerprint.. so thats a majority of what I like root for.. but want to get rid of bloatware.. make custom sounds.. etc...

If you use a 3rd party file explorer you can use your own sounds, it should give you an option when you try to change your notification or ringtone. You should be able to also add custom ringtones and notification sounds to the Ringtones and Notifications folders in /storage/emulated/0/ and it should show up in the regular menu. You can kinda get rid of bloatware by disabling it in app info, some apps wont let you disable them though (like google play services). I'm still on stock and have disabled all google services (except google play services which i denied all permissions to) and put on a 3rd party launcher.
