Hi all, not sure if this the completely right section but,
Back story: I had a HTC Legend and after an unfortunate weekend, the screen was shattered and thus I had no phone. I scoured ebay and found a no name android (as I wanted dual sim for ease of use) running 2.3.6. Now I had issues rooting my Legend, and so I wasn't keen on it with this phone, but I couldn't resist myself and I tried again with almost next to zero information about my phone.
All I can tell you basically is that it's running 2.3.6, a model number e1101_v73_jbl1ctp_a515 (although scouring of google provided me with chinese websites, and as such I assume that what it's running is similar to that of the Motorola XT91x series? If that helps). I've tried super one click (it hangs at step 7) and I've also tried '2.3.6 root'.
I'm not quite sure what I can do now, any further ideas or help would be appreciated!

Hi, All--
I've been scouring the web for almost 24 hours before asking this question (because I know how much forum-regulars hate duplicate posts that have already been addressed), but I can't seem to find anything specific to my case.
I rooted my AT&T Note II using CWD and flashed Android Revolution HD. Everything worked fine. The ROM is sleek and elegant and packed with functionality. Unfortunately, my phone no longer recognizes the SIM card. At no point have I been able to make a phone call or send a text message since the phone has been rooted. In addition, it seems to shut down randomly. It may be worth mentioning that I rooted the phone using a Mac, but I don't think that affected too much.
Since then, I've been looking to possibly wipe the phone, re-root the phone, or un-root the phone and install AT&T's stock firmware (which seems to not exist yet), but none of these options have worked particularly well. I even wiped the phone then attempted to flash a different ROM (I tried Paranoid Android) but was greeted with multiple "Installation Aborted" messages in CWM.
This http://www.andromods.com/unroot-locking/how-to-restore-samsung-galaxy-note-2-to-stock-rom-firmware-with-odin.html went online yesterday and purports access to stock AT&T firmware for the Note II. Unfortunately, I can't confirm this because I can't run Odin on my Mac.
I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992303&highlight=wipe here on the forums, which seems like a promising way to unroot an AT&T Note II, but when I tried to run TWRP, I kept getting "Installation Aborted" messages as well.
Can anyone help?
Thanks, mods, for moving my thread to the appropriate forum.
Is bumping a thread considered rude here? If so, please forgive my impatience--I've never used an Android phone before a few days ago, and I'm kind of thrilled to finally get to play with my phone.

Any headway here? The same exact thing happened to me!!!!
Okay, so first of all, yes, I am completely new to this. However I'm no idiot, I'm just more on the hardware side of computing. Anyways, I've searched the internet for well over twelve hours now trying to get a custom ROM (that I found here, Android Revolution HD 6.0) onto my Galaxy Note 2 (SCH-950). I live in the US and I have the 4G LTE version, N7105 I think... and I'm getting nowhere. I've downloaded the tool kit, Odin, probably reset my phone 40 times by now. No one else seems to be having this problem, at least not that I can find. So, really I just need like a direct instruction on how to root and flash a custom ROM onto this phone. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!!
EDIT: (even though no ones responded yet) I tried a few different ROMs and it kept getting stuck at the "Samsung" screen. The final one I tried is Doedexed V1.2. It got to 20% and then restarted. It also looped up at "Samsung." So I flashed over a generic recovery backup I have for the SCH-950 and then suddenly everything looks different, as If Doedexed V1.2 were suddenly applied. Everything works fine... occasionally something is in a different language, but that's minor. I know it's still my voicemail lol. So... yeah... I could definitely use some info now lol
Greetings, just a couple weeks ago I got my first smartphone, and this is my first post around here. Hope it's in the right section.
Well, its a LG Optimus E615 (same as E610 with dual sim).
Running Android 4.0.4, kernel 3.0.8-perf, rooted according to this topic. Alright so far.
I wonder if you could help me with an issue I'm having
Problem is since I first started using it, I noticed that the clock always goes out of sync, about 15minutes to as much as 3h a day.
I'm gave up on automatic time and timezone already, since they are no help, so I ruled out operator giving wrong time already.
I searched around, found some topics like these[/ur] and [url=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999614&page=6]these, but they are of no help =/
It's kind of frustrating that even my old Nokia 6110 classic is able to keep track of time, so I can't believe such a high-tech device like this (ok, its not an S3 or S4, but still) that does alot more can't.
Google or LG doesn't seem interested in fixing it as far as I can see (it was already acknowleged by them)
The fact I received the phone as a gift purchased while traveling to another country makes it next to impossible to return or change it, so I'm really looking forward to resolving it on my own.
Would you guys be able to point me to some way?
Thanks in advance
Your gonna be pretty much out of luck. Most dual sim phones out of china are clones using different hardware then what they say they have. They also do that work really well with US carriers. So your best bet will be to check some Chinese forums

Is there somewhere that has a working guide on how to reliably root a brand new Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T810 on 5.1.1?
About a month ago I bought an S2 tablet (9.7", Wifi) and immediately set about rooting it using xda-developers.com. Many years ago I rooted a couple HTC phones because I was having terrible battery performance but never found the need to do the same on my S3 or S5 phones, so I'm a little out of date on the tools and processes. Apparently jumping back in at 5.1.1 was poor timing. I spent half the day using the information in this forum and what else I could piece together to try and get the root to work but eventually got frustrated and stopped. I spent several more hours trying to jump back in at the same place and have been unable to get this to work. I don't have the windows open from all the places I've been, but I've seen a lot of people seeming to report they're having difficulties as well, but that's when the thread just stops and I can't tell if they found some magic to help them out or where I'm struggling.
This website has grown considerably since the last time I was trying to use it as a resource, and I'm either searching for the wrong things or am making mistakes out of frustration. My route has seemed circular, to paraphrase: I don't remember what or how many bootloaders I've tried, my device won't root. I tried using Odin to instead load TWRP, but it also won't install that. I've seen the suggestion to downgrade to 5.0.2 and using a different set of tools, I can work my way to rooted and back to whatever ROMs I want, but then I see conflicting information that I can't just downgrade to 5.0.2, don't see an obvious location of a ROM to even do that with. I don't even know if I'm looking in the right area of the forums.
Hi,
Please check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/general/guide-root-tab-s2-t3205019

Good luck!
Hello to you all and thanks in advance for your patience... for most of you this may be "stupid" but I have so many doubts and I don't want to end up with a "Samsung Brick" on my hands.
1.- Device: Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 SGH-I497 (AT&T) running Android 4.1.2 Base Band I497UCMF3 Build JZO54K.I497UCBMF3
2.- Background: Bought it new from AT&T and had it with wireless service with them for 3 years... ended the wireless service and kept using it as a WiFi only device. while it was still under contract it updated firmware a couple of times till it got to 4.1.2 since then when you check for updates always tells me "Current Software is up to date" that has been for the last 2 years pretty much.
Needles to say it keep running slower and slower at time passes by and newer versions of apps don't run as it should. Of course I have the "infamous" AT&T pre-loaded apps that I don need in it.
SEPARATE ISSUE: For sometime now it's working fine, then it tries to load something and stay like "buffering" and nothing goes forward... I found that have to manually disconnect from the WiFi and connect again and it starts working again. Rest of ten devices at home (Phones, Tablets, Playstaion, etc...) don't have problems.
3.- I have heard for years now about rooting and the PRO's and CON's of it... after some reading I feel that if done correctly that is my better choice to give some new and better life to my "entertainment pal" but same reading confuses a bit out of me between options and which ones works which one doesn't and which one is the right for me.
4.- I have found here this: https://www.xda-developers.com/root-and-recovery-for-the-samsung-galaxy-tab-2-10-1/ that then takes me to this original thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657056
Is this still the right way for me ??? I never updated (or used) via KIES it was always on wifi.
Any pointers suggestions and "Dumb and Dumber" step by step guide will be really appreciated.
