Model number SAWEE10
The rom on the "Superpad" is android2.2_20110420
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9semitime-server#4
Build number FRF853
On bootup my release showed 0.6.1.5()
Yes the parenthesis were empty....
So....do I have newer then everyone else and if so can someone point me to most direct instructions on dumping the rom before I change any of it so I can upload it somewhere?
The safest method to root would also be appreciated...I'm attempting to resist monkeying with the rom until I can get it dumped.
If I'm wrong in assuming this is a "newer" version please let me know and I'll skip trying to save it.

Click to expand...

Try to flash it with the US RC29 or the UK firmware. But I don't think this will work as the SPL will block it.
AFAIK there's no way to get root at the non US/UK/Dev G1 at this time.
Michael
try update using rc30 update.zip file. I think you will install SPL for US region and you can flash back to RC29
Does it work? Because i wanted to buy the German G1 but if I can't root it, I will buy the UK Version.
@n8gk
work root with the US SPL ??
have you try this ??
If you flash a US or UK firmware on a german G1,....
will the Keyboard work correct ? the Layout for Z and Y are different.
Where can I get the RC30 update.zip file
Ther german has also a build 123099.
I didn't try to update, because I don't wanna loose the ability to go back to the original.
Waiting that a original one is out first. (because of language and keyboard)
Not Allowed
I tried to downgrade with rc29 firmware, but it isnt possible...
Checking...
Loading...
Not Allowed...
And then stuck in the bootloader...
I also got my G1 last week and it also has the 123099 Build.(I live in Austria) If there is any way how i can help to root this build (upload it?), let me know.
If i flash an UK or US firmware on my phone (suppose some genius finds a way how to do it) wouldn't it render the "Disable Data-Roaming" function useless, when i travel to one of these countries? And even deactivate the data connection in my home country?
In Austria tmo offers a roaming block on their side so i do not have to use this function on the phone, but i am just curious...
Maybe one of the more experienced users in here could tell us about the chances of rooting such a device.
Are there any or did Google / T-Mobile finally fix the backdoor completely?
Greetings,
Becksman
In device info the build description is:
kila_eu-user 1.1 TMI-RC4 123099
ota-rel-keys,release-keys
And build id:
TMI-RC4
The backdoor has been fixed for some time now... But as long as you were able to revert to an older image you can re-root your device, but we are not able to do this because we would need to use an image with another CID and that is not allowed with the original SPL. But the only way to change SPL is when you have your device rooted...
Correct me if im wrong plz..
So that means bad news for the European G1 owners?
seems so. and because the developers here already got a us-hacked version, they not seem to be interested in hacking this 1.1 firmware the one or other way.
are the european developers to stupid/busy to do it? or are they so clever to get a us one?
in the european firmware 1.1-version the manufacturer has alredy fixed the lame telnetd-root bug and the bootloader. and this is, on what the us-g1-hacks are based on.
i have the hope that some day a local root exploit will apear, which exploits the kernel or another vital component of the g1 to get root without telnetd.
maybe such a kernel exploit will be discovered in the standard linux kernel which can be portet to android; or some great reversing/hacking-debugging-genious-mastermind finds an android exploit all by himself.
android is so new, there MUST be bugs to exploit locally.
Iam a highlevlel-programmer, iam not able to find such local root vulnerabillities.

Hello XDA Developers,
I have been searching the internet and found a lot of information about Upgrading Firmwares, Odin, PDA, PIT, CSC and what not. Most of them comming from XDA Forums.
Today however, I was unable to find the answer to my questions and decided to create an account and share with you my burden.
So I have a GT-i9000 Galaxy S which has been rooted, and I want to benefit from the Official Auto Updates to get everything going (like the new Android marketplace)
I have 1st tried SamFirmwares or whats it called, only to find NONE of the firmwares in there were STOCK.
Then I found this other site where I did manage to find the PDA, Phone and CSC Stock files, and flashed them properly, but its still not good enough:
1. The Kies finds FW Upgrades for my Phone, But when I connect it, it says FW not compatible with your device - Clearly my device is not stock.
2. The Auto Updates show no updates for my device
3. The Kernel Version in my Phone info shows :
2.6.35.7-I9000XVJB-CL118186
[email protected] #2
So I figured I must flash Kernel to Stock, found a site - broken link to the Stock Kernel, Managed to find the same file somewhere else, found some instructions on where to put it and what to configure in Odin, Did it - Success.
Only nothing is changed..
I found no mention anywhere at all of anyone having this "nothing changes although Odin says Flash Kernel Successful"
My other details are:
FW 2.3.3
Baseband Version:
I9000XXJVK
Build Number:
GINGERBREAD.XWJVB
Please help. As it is now I also can't take the phone to any warranty - if I can find the word Root in it, so will they.
reflash it with flashtool. works like a charm
Hi 2days ago I tried to root my device by looking at the info from the website
http://eeepadhacks.net/transformer-hacks/how-to-root-eeepad-transformer-honeycomb-3-2/
They give you a zip with firmware and adb to make it easier to root
I did the steps there and some things did not work
Right now I have an old firmware and it won't let me update to the regular real firmware
It keeps on saying I'm on the latest firmware
I tried nachoroot which wouldnt show I'd of 0 after 5 times trying the process from the begining
I tried unrooting by suggestions from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093403
But it didn't help I also wiped all the data and it didn't help
Firmware htk75.us_epad-8.6.5.21
Kernel 2.6.36.3-00001g9a21fc1 android#1
Android version is 3.2.1
Any help is very much appreciated I understand a new android version should be available soon I hope this will still let me upgrade android although I can't seem to update firmware
Isn't 8.6.5.21 the latest firmware?
Its possible I am just confused for some reason I thought that there is a 9. Something firmware when I just got the device I updated the firmware I thought I got it to a 9
something. wow this is emberrassing
So what I have is definitely the new firmware? Hmm then why can't I root?
my SN begins with BC and ends with 89
Is it rootable? I only saw ppl talking about other serial numbers like B80 etc...
Your tablet should be rootable but not with the method you linked above.
Try NachoRoot again or ViperMod which use NachoRoot but it does all the steps for you.
Another option is down grade to 8.6.6.19 and use RazorClaw.
thank you very much I will try with vipermod have a nice day

Hi all
A week ago a rooted my Samsung Galaxy S6 device following this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/root-pingpongroot-s6-root-tool-t3103016
All was OK. At that point my device is using the Android Version: 5.0.2
The question I have is that now the version 5.1.1 (Lillipop) has been released, I would like to know if my rooted device can still be upgrading when the new version is released in my region (Mexico) by the phone provider. (Telcel). In case it cannot be updated automatically, I guess I will need to do it manually or unroot my device. In that scenario, Does someone know a good tutorial how to do that?
Regards!
@LesthadMK, sure you can update rooted devices. But it may not be possible via OTA update. You will have to download the full firmware and install it manually.
Because root makes changes to system partition, OTA fails when you have rooted. If you unroot and flash stock recovery and kernel back, then OTA may work. Otherwise, simply flash the full firmware, in .tar format using Odin software, and you're good.
It's good to have full firmware saved on PC anyway, as if in case you brick your device, you can fix it by installing your device's firmware manually.
If you need help with 5.1.1 firmware installation on your s6, let me know the build no. of your device.. I will guide you to page you need to look at.
Thanks for the help. I have download Odin in case I need to do it manually.
Also, mentioned that yesterday I read an article saying that using the Samsung software "Smart Switch" in an rooted device will upgrade the device to the newest version (which I don't know if it it's true or not) Any way this is the link I found:.... Well seems since I'm newby I cannot post some external links. So just google it as: How to Use Smart Switch to Update Your Galaxy S6—Even It's Rooted.
By other hand, this is the build number for my device: G920IDVU1AOE3, so if you can help me to know how to upgrade that version that would be very helpful
Regards!
Hi Guys,
I have my niece's bricked ASG2-L09 unit with a bootloop and I am hoping to fix it.
I was trying to flash few ROM's, but no avail, so I am looking for directions.
I downloaded the ROM's from https://professorjtj.github.io, but to be honest, I am unsure what files would be useful.
What would be the proper "Archive" to download? Normal, Base or Downgrade?
The latest "Base" I downloaded fails with the "Incompatibility with current version" error.
I don't know what is the latest version on the unit, so I was wondering if someone could share the latest version number on their devices, so I could download it?
Also do I need to copy the "update_data_full_public.zip" and "update_full_AGS2-L09_hw_eu.zip" as well in the SD card?
Finally: would SD flashing even work or should I try to unlock the bootloader first?
Thank you
If you're able to access fasboot or recovery you might be able to get it running again. I have the same device and highly recommend following the steps to install the LineageOS 18.1 based ROM LeaOS by @AltairFR
which is likely to help . There's a link to join the telegram support group
if you're still stuck. There's many guides and fixes already shared by others
