[Q] Rooting shv e120k Samsung galaxy s 2 hd lte - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hi, i just bought the samsung galaxy 2 hd lte (SHV-e120K) and i was looking to root it. i couldn't find anything anywhere except for this website in Chinese that has the file downloads and instructions for the process. i read through the instructions through google translate, but not everything was clear. first of all, has this worked for anyone???? and if so can someone properly translate the instructions so i can root it properly. i don't want to take any risks.
here's the website in chinese (delete spaces between the dot and com, and between the dot and html):

There is this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484547
but for now, there isn't a 'rooted kernel' for the more recent updates that you got OTA or via Kies.. so check my comment .
about reverting to the older stock rom. You might want to wait for ICS and a rooted kernel before going through the trouble of rooting.

WIth E120K, have you tried using the LTE service already? I am really wondering whether the LTE service work outside of Korea, especially in Australia. thanks

LTE on it works great. Does anyone know if there is a kernel for 4.0.4 for the E120K. I have searched all over the place to no avail.

There you will find all you need including links to Tegrak's recovery and kernel builds for UF29 firmware.
There's no kernel and recovery for the latest -- UK08 firmware (it isn't JB There are a few requests on Tegrak's blog for a kernel and recovery for the UK08 firmware so I doubt we will wait long - Tegrak is always on the ball

Proscan PLT 7035B - connect to PC, upgrade to JB and rooting with Play Store

Details of how to connect to PC, upgrade to JB and rooting with Play Store in posts #3 and #4.
I came across this tablet during the holiday season sale at P C Richard and Son (don't see them carrying it anymore). Found it to be a great deal for 59.99 USD (+tax) since it looks like it has a lot of potential for so cheap a tablet.
The one I am currently playing around with is the last of the 5 that I had picked up as gifts for others (and this one will be reaching the recipient soon).
When searching the web for more info, could practically find none. Most of the stuff I saw online was desperate queries of folks struggling with this model - Proscan PLT7035-B from Curtis Intl..
I love the Jelly Bean on my Nexus 7 and the Note II - and so was just trying to put together a sort of guide of the great work you folks have been doing here at XDA that will immensely help those who seek them for this particular make/model.
Product details:
Model #: PLT7035-B
Processor: Rockchip 2906
1.2 GHz processor
7" capacitative touch screen

In the next couple of posts, will try my best to explain in detail the steps that I took to upgrade my tablet from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.1 and successfully root as well as have CWM installed along with Google Play store.

Now before we get into details about flashing etc. link below is a nice "guide" article about the various terminologies like what is a Bootloader, custom ROM, Kernel, CWM, Firmware, Flashing, ADB, Root etc.

Click on the above link - a must read for newbies.
Now the Statutory warning: Follow all the remaining steps in this thread at your own risk. It worked fine for me - so neither the forum or me are liable in any sort of way for any damages whatsoever that you may bring upon yourself.
Jelly Bean 4.1.1 Update:
Proscan Model Number PLT7035-B has it on their official site:
http://proscanvideo.com/item.asp?itemnmbr=PLT7035-B
Firmware:
-------------
4.0
http://www.curtisint.com/html/custservice/manuals/PRO_PLT7035-B_FIRMWARE_4.0.ZIP
4.1
http://www.curtisint.com/html/custservice/manuals/PRO_PLT7035-B_FIRMWARE_4.1.ZIP
Manual
http://www.curtisint.com/html/custservice/manuals/PRO_PLT7035-B_ENFR.PDF
As always - statutory warning - neither me nor the forum are liable for any damages to your tablet - do it at your own risk - no one other than you alone is liable for any damages arising from the usage of this guide.
How to upgrade the firmware after downloading it from above link:
Get the RKBatchTool
First of all - ensure that your tablet is FULLY charged.
Unzip the RKBatchTool v1.5 to your desktop
Turn off the tablet and disconnect from the PC.
Now press the Volume Up (+) button and keep holding it down.
Here comes the slightly tricky maneuver - you have to keep pressing the volume UP (+) button and connect at the USB at same time in to the PC. The tablet will power up on it's own but the screen will remain blank
Once the PC starts searching for the driver, you can release the volume button.
Windows will prompt you for drivers for "RK29 device".
Use appropriate drivers from the driver folder.
Have attached some pictures collected from the web (it is just to give a visual idea as an aid to the walk through and may not be detailed nor accurate in every aspect since some of them are from instructions for other devices).
Run the RKBatchTool v1.5.
Click on first button at the left bottom end of the tool screen - this is a toggle for Chinese/English versions.
In the "FW Path" load the update.img file by clicking on the top right side button with the three ... dots
The following will appear in the status box after the "connected devices" box turns green.
Loading firmware...
Loading firmware Finished.
I clicked "Upgrade" (even though the picture says restore).
Your previously green colored box of "connected devices" will now keep flashing in yellow.
Sit back and have fun watching the status box - will probably take a couple of minutes for the whole process and verification.
When it is all done with - the tablet will reboot.
Remember that the first boot would take a longer time than usual powering up time - so just be patient.
All the best.

Attached below are the pics from Proscan site Powerpoint.
I have successfully rooted it twice and installed Play Store (once with ICS and now with JB)
First time it was with help of amjtech thread [Tutorial] Proscan PLT-7035-PL Root and install GAPPS
Now I tried the [RK29][TOOL] Root RK29 Tab Toolkit since the sdk was already installed.
Very simple and super effective rooting process.:good:
The first time when I ran in to driver installation issues it was pertaining to permissions.
Found work-arounds elsewhere and also had issues with the installing google playstore.
Hence used the Vending 3.9.16.apk from thread [Share] Google Play 3.10.10 [Updated 14.12.12] to resolve it.
Installing CWM was also a breeze - thanks to the great work of fun_ . It is a simple process if you follow his guidelines :good:
He has been very kind to upload an exclusive CWM-based Recovery image for ProScan PLT7035-B (ext4)
Click above link to d/l it and follow installation instructions
--------------------------------------
Precautionary measure - the following is just in case something goes wrong and you want to revert back (and also to have a copy of original images) :
I used the romdump technique and following Oma's suggestion have created the kernel, boot, recovery and system images in SD card for ICS 4.0.4 of Proscan PLT7035-B
http://www.4shared.com/zip/UtCs-yCE/Proscan_PLT7035-B.html
Above link upload to 4share is exclusively for the Proscan PLT7035-B (ICS 4.0.4) and hopefully has not been corrupted because my internet connection has been flubbing for past few days.
Have fun and remember to use caution because you alone are responsible if you brick your device.
Cheers
yes ok

A BIG THANK YOU TO Oma7144 :good:
RK2906 Tab Proscan PLT7035-B now joins his list and rocks with Jelly Bean Custom Rom! Click here if you want to try it out.
Am loving it.
Thanks to him the Kernel for the PLT7035-B can be found here

This is an update from my end with regards to the JB 4.2.2 Multi-Window by Oma on the RK29
http://crewrktablets.arctablet.com/?p=1661
Check it out
------------------------------
There is also a Second Test Build CM10.1 (Thanks Oma) on Proscan PLT7035-B
Tried the CrewRKTablets_RK29_Loox_CM10.1_4.2.1_20130113.7z along with CrewRKTablets_Format NAND.zip with the custom kernel made by him on his ICS thread.
Am very happy to say it is working great so far except for the spotty wi-fi at times and also screen rotation (needs sensor/rotation calibration).
Please remember that it is still a test build.
Cheers.

Before I try something dumb was pondering if the update will work on 7035 pl. would love to have jb on it, and maybe get a little better battery life. There is so little info out for the pl. thanks for any help you can give.

Proscan/Curtis PLT7035-PL
Sooo I had a moment of derrrr and flashed the jellybean upgrade for the PLT7035-B to my 7035-pl. Boots up (quickly I might add) and goes to the lock screen but I have no touch control over the screen. Does anyone have an image of the original firmware for this tablet? Or any Idea on how I can regain control of the touch screen?

But you can do all the rooting and install CWM along with playstore as mentioned in post 4 since fun_ has a generic CWM on his site.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37221496&postcount=4
Would also appreciate it if you could kindly do a romdump of your 7035-PL and host the Boot, Recovery And System Partition Images to help people like capfl2k5 whose post from another forum is quote above.
Also try requesting Oma for a suitable kernel in his JB custom rom thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903745 and you will be all set. I really like that rom he has built.:good:
And then you could also try the CM 10.1 with that same kernel
I will see what I can do . I have su already but did not have any luck with with Google play I will try again later

[Q] root for dummies - Samsung Galaxy S GT-19000

Hi, I have scoured the web for information but several hours later I am none the wiser.
I would like to root my device in order to optimize its performance. I am super confused about: cf-root, mobile/pc odin, android version, etc. I still have no idea what is appropriate for my device. :crying: Please point me in the right direction.
I have found may threads out there with very detailed instructions, but I can't figure out if that's what I need. I'm apparently on Gingerbread, but what do I need now? The Icecream, the other one?
Reason for rooting: phone too slow with so many apps loading themselves in the background. I want to be able to prevent all these [expletive deleted] apps from loading themselves automatically. I also want to remove the stock apps I don't need (but can't now remove). I'm tired of factory resetting every other week to improve performance.
Ultimate purpose: phone, sms, whatsapp, news. That's it. I don't need 3d porn or anything. :angel: My needs are extremely minimal.
Thanks for any pointers! :good:

Thanks Sewrizer. I'd rather brick the phone than pay for the service. I already have a more recent phone, so this is more of a second device. It's just that I like the typing better so I haven't completely stopped using it. I guess I'm sort of relishing the idea of an experiment with it as well.
Do you have a link to instructions for the above? If it works for your friend, it's good enough for me.
Unless I hear something back, I'm getting ready to try this:

thanks a lot.
which cf-root?
Thanks Sewrizer. As it happens these are the instructions I started with, and from which a lot of confusion arose (I can't post urls yet).
The first link is to Odin3 v1.85, but I have found Odin3 v1.87. Not sure if there is a later version. It says somewhere that the latest version is best.
The second link is to a series of posts with many download links. Somewhere down the page it states that if you're confused, then:
First, go to Settings -> About phone -> Build number. It should say something like FROYO.xxJPy. It's primarily the JPy that we are interested in. Try to match that with a download link available in this (and the next few) posts. Some of the downloads dont just have JPy file name format, but are called xx_xxx_JPy.
Let me explain that. Samsung isn't always very precise in naming/marking their different (leaked) firmwares. CF-Root's are modified kernels, the filenames explain in more detail which exact firmware ROM the base kernel was taken from, for those experts who understand.
If you are not one of those people, go back to the JPy thing. The "y" in JPy is 0-9, A-Z. If they run out of numbers, they use letters. So A would be 10 (9 + 1), while Z would be 35 (9 + 26). Find the one that is closest to yours, if yours is not present, and flash that one.

Well, my build number is of the form GINGERBREAD.zsjv6, which doesn't fit the pattern described (I don't see any JPy, I see jv6), so which version of CF-Root should I download?

You shouln't have bought Chinese devices like this. They don't provide necessary guide for their things out of their country. They do things in their own forums and own language.
Okay, I didn't find any ROMS for Kitkat for your device.
I just came to know that you can upgrade to Jellybean. I just saw this:

http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=3082485858&uk=3442944625
It's recommended to update first from B03 to B04 and then do the 4.1.2 update. Here's the link for 4.0.4 B04:

How to do 4.1 update. Remember to backup first!:
1. Download V985_update_4.1.2.7z upgrade package file and unzip the file. Under the folders there's update.zip.
2. Copy update.zip to the external SD card root directory
3. Enter the "Settings" -> "System Software Updates" -> "Storage card upgrade." and uncheck "retain user data upgrade". If this is checked, it will cause some issues and the phone might not boot.
4.Click the OK button to upgrade. Upgrade process starts automatically after a few seconds.
Root & recovery:

You shouln't have bought Chinese devices like this. They don't provide necessary guide for their things out of their country. They do things in their own forums and own language.
Okay, I didn't find any ROMS for Kitkat for your device.
I just came to know that you can upgrade to Jellybean. I just saw this:

I believe ZTE has not released kitkat or lollipop updates, but there should be Cyanogenmod available. I quickly searched from Chinese sites and I found these:
CyanogenMod 10.2(Android 4.3.1) For ZTE U985
http://bbs.flydev.cc/thread-5719-1-1.html
[Live Team] [update fix2] CM11 For ZTE U985 special edition release
http://bbs.flydev.cc/thread-6748-1-1.html
Download links should be available on those threads but you need to login first and post comment to the thread so that the link will be visible. Chrome with Google translator is needed When I downloaded roms from Chinese sites they required posts in Chinese, all english posts was removed and they can ban user who posts in english. So just copy paste something clever from earlier posts. Good luck!
can I ?

can I install the CyanogenMod 10.2 through different forums, or through YT ? cause I am afraid that if I install the CyanogenMod 10.2 in that site, my android's language will turn in to chinese which I cannot understand. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am looking for a stock ROM of Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 LTE (SHV-E230L).

Just as the title says. My device has been bricked, unlike any other Samsung devices, I cannot find any links to download a stock firmware for it. It's almost been half a year I'm searching with no luck, even Sammobile I can't find one and any links I've searched on Google are broken. Shame it's just lying around and I can't use it. A working link for free download and any other method to fix my device is appreciated.
Thank you.

I did that a long time ago as I said on my message above and I did again today. Some links are broken including hotfile.com and other results on Google. Others require payment online to be able to download but I think those are scams and I don't know how to do online transactions like credit card payments since I don't have one. I am looking for a link which I can download a stock firmware of SHV-E230L for free like all firmwares on Sammobile or also any methods to fix this bricked device besides flasing it.

For starters check whether the tablet enters into recovery mode. If not - no firmware does not help, you must contact the Service Center (or the trash). A firmware try looking for "KIES_HOME_E230LKLUAMG2_E230LLGTALI1_1220323_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5" or "KIES_HOME_E230LKLAMA3_E230LLGTALI1_887051_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5"- much in the Chinese resources. In my Yandex.Disk I put the firmware from hire, but I somehow did not understand that for the file extension is "egg" (I renamed to zip, but didn't become clearer more out). And there's a magnet-link torrent, but I feel that the non-operating: https://yadi.sk/d/Qt98o5XHnx9vk At least, I have not downloaded.

As long as I can find a way to extract it's worth a shot. Thanks.
