NEW ROOT METHOD !!! Bonsai MasterKey Unlocker v1.1.0 - Windows Binary - Epic 4G Android Development

I have used and found this new rooting method with awesome recovery that totally works compared to clockworks mod 2.x and 3.x You can now use your phone as a usb device to access your memory card while in the custom recovery. and now most of the no we dont need are gone just one above and below yes are their! I was able to even flash the leaked ee03 leaked gingerbread build. This is so awesome.

and why is that.... do they have yet another site that they hate and have a feud with? It would seem to me that their is too much stuff going on at xda. XDA may need then to have the federal trade commision look into breaking up xda over monopoly concerns....

just down load it and follow the program. the recovery seems to be similar to clock works mod, but actually works.... as a usb drive...

You can't be too mad at XDA. They want to promote open development here, and that means that they have to adhere to their own strict guidelines without fail. They cannot promote payment modeled websites, as that detracts from the idea of open-source how they present it. Furthermore, when a user comes to XDA looking for help and mods and what have you, they prefer to find it all in one place. Many people dislike coming here only to be bounced around to different websites and be forced to manage multiple online profiles towards one cause. Unfortunately, while Bonsai has maintained a free and open-source model, the model they have chosen strongly conflicts with XDA's standards and they cannot be a part of that without sacrificing the very thing that makes this site function, flaws and all.
Any drama beyond that, I am unaware of and do not understand.
Bonsai is a great project. Go to their website, enjoy it, but it can't be linked here.

I don't even think its about the donate to get early releease issue. I'm pretty sure it was only about registering to download even though registering is free xda I think wants it to be easy for members to download. Personally I don't care I've used bonsai and it is a nice rom. I've also donated to be an early tester but rules are rules.

Which just goes to show what is so terribly wrong with XDA, and why it has such a horrible reputation in the Android community
It can be phrased in any manner the runners of the site wish, but it all is the same thing.
An overt effort to crush any ability to get any information or help from anywhere but XDA
For supporting an open source platform, XDA is incredibly closed
Nothing to do with pay, as links to 100% free sites are blasted just as much as links to pay sites
And the need to "register" is simply more fluff and feathers, as everyone had to register for XDA as well.
And sadly, despite the Bonsai being 100% free to use and get stuff from, the link will be removed by the rules of this site, after all, can't maintain a Steve Job's like closed wall system, if you allow links to the outside.

It just flashes a recovery partition. You need a rooted rom to flash with. Much easier to use and should also be working on Gingerbread and Honeycomb as they develop the app. In essence it is a cross platform (Win 32, Win 64, Linux, OSX) tool that is expected to work with multiple devices.

Personally I think the whole issue is semantics. If you want to dl a piece of code from the download companies you need to register and often pay $ or you get thrown under the bus while waiting for all the regular customers to finish their business. Personally I would rather register somewhere where I can get something for free without a lot of hassle.

The MasterKey Unlocker is really only useful if you have a stock rom. I'm unsure what will happen if you use it over a CWM enabled device.

A bad rep in the Android community? What are you talking about? This is the most respected developer website for Android hands down and I bet Randy would agree. Do your homework before you post stupid stuff.
Samsung Epic Midnight

Only problem I found with xda was..when I first joined....I had to post x amount of times until I could post in certain sections lol...everything else is just fine..... so in essence how xda operates shouldnt matter to the user, weither you're a leecher or developer. You have to play by the rules...if you're doing something else....tighten up and find another hobby.

I used it over CWM 3.0.2.5 as soon as it was released publicly and nothing went wrong. Still using it and have flashed several different roms and addons and its worked perfectly. The only thing I haven't done yet is restore a backup, which I'm about to try now

If you did it over 3.0.2.5 that may have made a difference as Bonsai MasterKey was sourced and forked from that level of CWM. Perhaps using Masterkey on 3.0.0.6 causes the other issues. Personally I didn't alpha test MasterKey in this manner and would have to defer to my fellow testers as to the usability in this regard. Master Qu and mattallica where are you?

Xda... You messed up bad when you kicked out hero. Im running his baked snack 1.2 rom and it's flawless. Let him back in. Who really cares if he asks for donations? This is retarded. Proof is in the pudding.

This is hero btw,
I would never intend to that man. I hate seeing reports like that because they make me feel like I'm screwing people over when my goal is to take complete care of my members. Please, if you have donated and have not received access. Send me a request from my forums and make sure you state the email address you donated with. If by midnight I don't have all the reproper requests accepted I will refund your money and you will still get access. Sometimes it is hard for me to catch all the requests. But I am attempting to be very good about my prgram and respect and appreciate all memberships
Problem is said user is a well known donatewares promoter who repeatedly breaks/bends XDA rules. I for one am glad to see him removed from the Epic forums and back to those others (hero/evo) forums where all those donatewares people can muddy up those places. Personally, I'm thankful this place is clean and not infested with donatewares rom makers, but who knows how long that will last. Money is a good motivator to find ways around a system.

Ok guys. Donateware means you have to pay for the rom. Wanna know what my members pay for? My tons of hours of support. There will never be an unanswered question at my site. Also they receive my roms 3-4 days earlier than the public. Any roms I release will go public. Its just the people who can't wait 3 days that cried enough for me to not want to post here

Haha, nice try at trying to dodge the bullet. It's a known fact that you aka hero has made "coming soon" threads here then baiting the rom flashing addicts to your own "pay to download.... er, register/support" site for your own profits. Try reading up on what GPL means and understand that XDA does not promote what you do and believe.

GPL states you can charge unlimited amount of money for your work. i dont charge for my files i charge for support and early releases. gpl also states you have 30 days to prepare your source code. none of my xda threads made it that far. GPL on xda means this: you must have your code available so others can use your work and not have to credit. i dont post here because im sick of spoiled little nerd babies expecting everything to be fed to them with a golden nipple

1.1 is not based fully on di18 so it will not go public. 1.2 will be public tomorrow or Tuesday.
and to the other guy. Call me what you want and say what you will. I can sleep knowing the people who donate to me get the support they request and the roms they desire. Just because you don't agree with it does not mean it is wrong. I spend half my day supporting people that use my work. Ask xda how much moderators get paid. Because they do and I dont see you complaining that they make money for closing threads and making threads stickied. Cmon man be smarter than the average bear

So you're implying that XDA mods release roms/products in XDA forums under the condition that IF they donate early they will be lead from a XDA forum post/thread to a pay site to promote their donateware roms "support" just to get a alpha/beta product/rom earlier than the average joe? LOL, get real. Trying to equate what you do to XDA mods is moot and baseless. Just admit it, you're a donatewares/advertiser peddler, just cuz you dabble in the grey area doesn't put you behind the white line. I think you're wrong and apparently XDA mods agree by removing your post/s.
I'm finished and you may go now.
Herver,
I get that you are a great dev and would like some kind of compensation for your work, but your attitude is just making you come across as a complete asshole. XDA isn't a billboard for you to advertise your "coming soons" on. I'm sure if you had tried to reach some sort of middle ground with the Mods (like including a link to your site in your signature saying you have early releases of your work there) then you wouldn't look like a total prick and feel the need to insult anyone one here.
And that's all I have to say

[Q] Flash Captivate back to stock

Does anybody know how to flash my captivate back to the original att stock rom? I installed that new froyo update but too much of the stuff i like is now missing. I would like to flash it back to the stock rom eclair and wait until the official release from ATT, besides it's really not much faster then the original stock rom anyways

missing stuff? Everything is there if you flashed the stock 2.2...
yes missing stuff
The android market doesn't recognize this build so a lot of the apps that i had before i downloaded the 1 step 2.2 is no longer available to be me on the market. Not to mention still no dial from bluetooth headset support. Also I can connect to the att update software server anymore. So when there is an official update from android and att ota, i won't be able to get it. From what im hearing the official release will have bluetooth support so that i can use voice activated dialing. I don't understand how any cell phone company can make a phone now these days with out that already cooked into there stock rom. Most of all i can't believe i bought this phone knowing it did have voice acivated dialing...luckly im still within my 30 day return policy. I will be taking it back to best buy and trading it for the iphone 4. Reception might not be that great but that can be fixed with a case. At least it has voice activated dialing which is essential today. Not too happy with the captivate...but thats what i get for venturing out to try something new i guess...lol!!! i have learned my lesson...stick to apple....lol

Use Odin one click, if you can't find it with that much information you shouldn't be on the internet, much less flashing your phone...and really this isn't development at all, this doesn't even belong in general anymore due to the number of times this has been answered in dev, general, and the individual threads of the developers making the ROMs.
Wow...your pretty rude, but i have come to expect that from xda...anyways i'll be returning this piece of junk to ATT today...i was told this morning they are well aware of the froyo beta file out there and are telling folks that it's not the final release. They did offer to take the phone back even though i already flashed it. So that's cool Steve Jobs here i come!!!! im gettting a real phone...an iphone

I don't recall anyone expecting rudeness here at XDA, everyone treats people with the level of respect they are due. If you come on here basically slapping devs, the android OS and Samsung in the face with your comments, you can't honestly expect the friendliest of replies. Good luck with your iPhone and its developmental limitations. Our forum here is to share knowledge and developments in each respective phone and OS field, not to just bad mouth a phone and OS because you decided not to properly research their capabilities. The search function serves its purpose well as do the plethora of FAQs around the forum.

Here's how i see it first of all you don't know Apple that well to advise that they have developmental limitations...obviously the stock price compared to google Android tells the story...enough said there. Number two I was just asking a general question and one your drones decided to insult me by calling me a "troll." I honestly don't see why you people get so upset at the mention of the iphone and Apple, who's on the defensive here? Im pretty sure Apple doesn't see android as a threat and im sure they are not on the defensive about the samsung captivate. At the end of the day...apple has been doing it a lot longer then Android and that's that. Most of the apps on the android market are junk because the market is not regulated like the App store at Apple so the so-cal developers can put anything on the android marke regardless to the app doing what it's suppose to do. Apple on the other won't allow developers to put apps in the App store unless it does what it suppose to do...is that what you meant by "develpmental limitations?" Because Apple won't allow you so-cal developers to pass off junk onto the App store like they do for android? At the end of the day Apple will continue to be the leader and Android will continue to try and keep up. Enjoy you Captivate, lets see how long your captivated by it.

Virtusous Fusion thread closed?

Does anyone know what happened with this ROM/Thread? I'm only curious. A lot of mystery behind *pending investigation*
Mods: Feel free to delete this thread
All: Feel free to criticize
Welcome to the new management aka dumber than the last one. Some of these special folks now locks the thread and cleans it so flame war ect won't continue when locked.
Makes a bit of sense. It's funny because I was starting to just get into it... I'm not sure I can wait, I might have to see what royalginger or faux's AOSP is all about. I'm addicted to flashing ROMs I think.
Now I never used evil D's rom/kernel or anything. But on serious note as another user in another thread said his rom may have radio.img in it maybe the reason it was pulled. As we all know the danger with corrupted radio.img and as the user says he didn't supply folks with md5 checksum which would give higher risk of bricking the device if corrupted. So maybe thats why it was pulled who knows only evil D and dingleberry mods knows.

It had no radio.img in it
Yea I don't think that was it. I'm thinking more of stolen code or some nonsense. but that's all just speculation. Whatevs, I am kind of attached to sense 3.0 now, but I have a taste for vanilla... I need two phones....

Well technically yes legally HTC can make claim and have it removed. But in the past they have not done so as they actually have very open standard with Android development world. As more news hits of unlocked bootloader and opensense sdk which proves more on that matter.
Far as stolen source code goes let say from another user no one else has put any projects as evil d's contribution is known in our community. Now the new mods may not know this as they don't even own MT4G nor has they been in our sections until Option went MIA. If these new mods do lock/delete it then all of the evil D users should boycott XDA and go download from his direct site if they have it. It seems XDA is becoming very cocky atm with its 4million userbase which can drop any min if main developers pulled back from here.

lol you really don't know who I am then. I can't clearly say I support any type of moderation's let it be mod, super mod, admin as I have dealt with all of them in here. I just think they should assign new mod who at least have a clue with the device we have. Also the new mods nuked alot of my posts which actually had no flame, ect and was actually informative. If they contributed to our device in any ways I would be supportive but since they haven't I can say I share their value. Whos/Option both where our own MT4G member but the other 2 new mod's now don't even own MT4G. So they actually offer nothing to the members here.

But far as rom goes I stick to AOSP as I am not big fan of Sense based. ATM using CM7NB86 (AOSP2.3.4).
I like the customization, nice look. I was CM7 for a little bit, I loved it, was going to switch back but I got hung up on the HTC apps. I still can't find a ROM that does VM notification for 'mycarrier', it never works and bugs the crap out of me, so I use googlevoice.
I agree that mods should be experienced with the hardware/software that their respective sections of moderation use. runs smoother that way and I think overall creates synergy(I love that word). But the objectiveness of a mod that doesn't have any affiliation with the section can be useful in when stopping disputes/flame/etc. IDK the real reason why the thread was locked but it seemed like that move was jumping the gun a bit.
I also see that another developer that was pretty new and had posted 3 roms within the last week is suddenly gone now also. He had a really good stock rom for MT4G that was GingerSense but now all of his threads and posts are gone. Nowhere to be found. Can only see his roms via rom manager.

If you read a few pages back into the thread, it should be pretty obvious why the download link was removed and the thread temporarily closed. None of the issues discussed in this thread are the real reason. It should be an easy fix, so hopefully the matter is resolved soon.
Couldn't be something as simple as the missing MD5 sum could it...?

Or you could have told the OP why in single line instead of him reading few pages. Some folks like myself never used his rom's much less visited his threads but we would be still interested to know why.
it may be the fact that the thread turned into a pissing contest and everyone was arguing about stupid crap like evil updating the rom everyday. which i dont see them pulling the rom for that reason. glad i have every version downloaded already

Considering this is meant to be an easy-to-follow and 'noob friendly' thread, how would you suggest I put more emphasis on the rooting side of things? I'm open to the idea, but I feel the end result deserves more attention than the process.
Edit: Thread stickied.
Please remove.
buzzboy said:
I never doubted that, all I'm saying is, there is no need for Rom recommendations. I am all for a easy to use guide, but why target a few specific Roms, based on personal recommendations? This idea surely would be better as a Root and flashing guide for "Noobs", only? Just feel you're opening a can of worms and will get bombarded with rom questions also.

Seeing as how Sam's thread is stickied, The link to it is best here.
I made my 'method' for users of Driphter.com as I am a staff member there.
Its available to anyone and everyone though without membership or signing up.
Its been around for quite a long time and I dont plan on removing it any time (nor does the site owner) (and once in a while will get updated if need be)
So it can just remain a Link in the sticky
And if someone cant get a working gold card... the 'line of code' mentioned in cyan within the faq, is around on the 5th page (if I remember correctly).

I noticed that... the only thing different between the two devices is the audio codec and the housing saying "AT&T" rather than "HTC" and maybe the digitizer manufacturer (depends on when the device was manufactured)
I put together my little method because none of the way's for regular dhd's (PD9810000's) were working on my 'telus' based DHD (PD9814000) - unbranded Inspire 4g - basically, non 'at&t' branded DHD that uses 850/1900mhz bands. So it should work fine for Inspire users (PD9812000).
If it was ment to be for Dcom users only, it would be for vip members only. But then that would have defeated the purpose of open source.
The scrips are simple, and easily modified it need be. There's no reason in my eyes to make things complicated. Everything is cookie cutter.

The BIG ****ing monkey wrench in that paradigm is that Windows PCs are rampant with all manner of (legitimate or not) programs hijacking the USB bus and wreaking havoc with anything that needs a clean pipe to the device (i.e. the hack kit with both adb and fastboot). 99.9% of all the problems we dealt/deal with on the IRC channel were/are because of this.

At that point its not the fault of the script/method being used. I simply tell the person to use another computer if their own is fubar; at that point its out of your hands, nor should they recieve help if their system is full of garbage apps/malware/trojans/multiple ****ty antivirus apps like AVG/Avast or the McAfee Free Scan or both.
Unless you plan to keep it updated, and add a few more of the standard roms like MIUI variants and Virtuous, I think a 'ROMS' section is a bad idea. It takes a lot of maintenance, and otherwise becomes misleading quickly.

Thank you for the feedback on that section. I will bring this up with the admin.
To help you with a ROM section - you could keep an eye on my site. I keep an up-to-date ROM list for the HTC Desire HD. There are also a few ROM screenshots of a couple of ROMs, to give newcomers an idea of the visual potential differences when changing ROMs.

King Kobra Note 3 Pledge

Hey Guys,
I am an indian note 3 user. luckily i also have an s4 i9500.
i use King Kobra ROM on it. comparing to other roms or even stock roms i see a gain of 6-9 fps whne using this ROM which is quite amazing.
And if you check this thread it has reached 30k viewers in the past weeks and more than 70 posts in which users say how much they love this rom.
Just check for yourself
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497087
This dev is also contributing on making our partition bigger since we lost 2 gigs from data partition when updating to 4.3 on i9500. he might as well do the same for you.
Also my ram usage stays at 900 mbs on idle even as i have 117 apps.
I would love to use this ROM on my note 3 and the dev wishes to develop for it. After requesting the dev to develop he is 580$ short for relaunching his king kobra team.
So 580$ will make him more intelligent?

OP I think you do not understand the word "pledge". XDA no longer allows threads such as this where users donate right away to the developer. What happens is that users post how much they would be willing to donate (but they do not actually donate it yet). Then as soon as the target amount has been met, the thread will be edited to reflect this and will be closed. After that it is up to the users who pledged to make sure the money goes to the developer.
I have taken the paypal link out of the OP, please do not add it back in.
580 would prolly buy him a note 3, genius @juan. I had an s4 an used crash rom, I recently bought an s4 for my gf and went to put crash rom on it too but I saw king cobras rom and had to use it. It looked too good. So now my gfs s4 has king cobras rom..looking fwd to see what he does. But ive seen some developers make rom without the device itself

just to mention, Philz did this on he's own Thread and he got people who donated to him, not because he asked for it but because users loved he's work and since he didn't have the phone it was hard for him to develop for it. luckily he know got the phone and the recovery is great. but he bought an s4 and he continued to develop for it and he's still developing for other phones he doesn't have, thats a great thing so can this rom dev do as well. even if he can't try it i'm most likely sure he can do exactly what he did on our I9505 to make it work with N9005 because he know that it will work due to the small difference from those devices

I thought I already told you that we do not allow direct donating to developers in so called "pledge" threads anymore as it makes it hard to keep track of who has pledged or donated what. The layout was perfectly fine before the edit seen in the screenshot.
Also to be perfectly honest, aside from yourself, there has been no interest in donating to this developer, quite the opposite in fact so I feel like I'm killing a wounded animal here... best to put it out of its misery.
