I just downloaded the newest Bluestacks, which is nice because it already comes with Google play installed. However I tried to root it with the latest root i've seen on XDA. However, myself and a few other people have been unable to get it to work. We figured it might not work, but figured it wouldnt hurt to try anyway. I was wonder if anyone was working on a root for this, and if there was any way I could assist? Just let me know, thanks

Might try the Q & A section....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=456
Thanks I checked that out but nothing relevant. They updated beta on July 23rd -- beta-1 release (0.7.2.751) -- and the original root does not seem to work on it like it did the first beta release. Not sure where the differences might be in code or what changed that is no longer allowing me to root this update. Sadly the app I use the most does not work on any other release but this newest one.

It's been talked about in the JFRC33 thread stickied up top, a lot of users are having the same issue and it's probably that Droidsans has to be updated to support the new release.

I know, but I'm impatient. If this comes out before a rooted version does, then I will test it out first haha.
Need a download link, I don't think I can cope with the anticipation...
Looks like the rumors were true this time! Cupcake DID come out in late (reeeealllly late) April!
yep...it's now confirmed if you check that link again
Just keep holding your eyes closed pal. The rooted version came out a few days ago.

I'm using the dude's 1.5. I don't want to unroot just to get that update....mainly because I'm waiting for the JesusFreke version. But I do find that when I unroot back to RC29 I get an update pushed to my phone like clock work.(I don't apply the updates of course) I have rooted and unrooted several times and this has ALWAYS been the case. But the updates were 1.1. I am willing to bet this might work for 1.5. For those of you who are impatient its worth a try. You just need the rc29 firmware.....worst case scenario is you will end up with RC33(1.1) again. Oh and if you are a noob please do your homework before you try any of this. If you brick your phone its not my fault

Actually, I been using the official HTC released ADP 1.5 OTA for three days now and it's rooted too. I just want to see how Tmobile has theirs setup.
hopefully we can either get the nonADP cupcake OTA update, and JF can put his magtastic hax on it
Seriously, has everyone in this thread been under a rock? There is already 2 rooted versions of ADP1.5, and many of us have been running stable 1.5 Builds for a month now. Yes, that's right STABLE, not to mention looking better and having more features. I always see people saying how they will wait until the official release or until JF makes a stable release to try Cupcake. I've had Hayruko's 5.02Hr5 for over a week and haven't rebooted since I updated, and who do you think made the multitouch browser for Hayruko's version of the very ROM this thread is posted about? That's right, JesusFreke. Read the forums people!
If I unroot my G1 to give Android 1.5 a try, can I still downgrade my firmware to root my phone again? Just wondering if there is anything in Android 1.5 that prevents downgrading firmware.
TIA
...what everyone's saying is that they're waiting for the RC version. wow i dont know my terms anymore. but the US version of the firmware. NOT THE ADP. people aren't living under a rock. we're waiting for JF to come out with rooted US tmobile version instead of ADP because we dont want it.

i second this.
Yes I think I will wait for JF version......No disrespect to the other chefs. So far I like the dudes version. And Haykuro is doing his thing. I have not tried his builds yet.
I'm not sure if I'm move from Haykuro's 5.0.2G build to the official, yet... To me, the 5.0.2G build is on a league of its own.
So, after ignoring my G1 for 6 months, I finally decided to try and make use of it once more.
Currently I rooted it and have a JF 1.41 RC33 installed.
I have found that Titanium Backup does nothing but FC on it. I would really like to get this working (as I did buy the full license). A bunch of other apps do nothing but FC as well, not that they were critical but this is a minor annoyance.
Question, should I post the log of the FC or is there a known issue that requires me to upgrade?
Isn't r33 cupcake? If so it may need updated to work with new apps

You know, I really have no idea. Hell, even the link that I got it from (on this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480) no longer works any more.
Been googling and can't really find any straight answer.
Maybe I don't even have the 'right RC33'. Under my kernel version it says:
2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0
[email protected]#1
Build Number
killa-user 1.1 PLAT-RC33 126986
ota-rel-keys, release-keys
The file I DL's was titled "JFv1.41_RC33.zip". JF's blog entries (http://jf.andblogs.net) start with v1.42.
Maybe this is what the media means by a fractured community? It always seems hard to get what seems to be, simple answers.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Things I need to know:
Which version of Android am I really running?
What is the next logical upgrade step?
Should I even upgrade to try to solve problems? (that went horribly wrong with I first tried going the CM rom route).
Edit: Seems that I do have 1.5 as when I looked under updates, there is 1.6 waiting to be DL'd. Don't really want to do that as it'll kill my root access. Would rather 'upgrade' to another JF updated ROM.
bump.
Anyone?
If noone can answer, how about a suggestion where I can get some answers?
Hello all,
I used to have CM10 installed, but I decided to give SlimBean a shot on my AT&T Skyrocket. I downloaded the 3.1 ROM (Slim-i727-3.1.0-OFFICIAL), and flashed it successfully. However, since install, I've been getting notifications from UpdateMe about upgrading to 3.1. Sure enough, I checked the 'About' section and it claims I'm running version 2.6 of the ROM, and version 4.1.2 of Android. Most annoyingly, I tried downloading the supposed 3.1 update from UpdateMe, only to get an error every time I try to download it (though I have used it to download other add-ons flawlessly). Any ideas what could be happening?
EDIT: Just for clarification, I did a full wipe/cache-clearing prior to installing the new ROM.
Thank you,
RMJ
Nothing? Nobody? Anybody???

If you read the FAQ link, which is right below the download link in the SlimRom thread you would find this:"I get an error when downloading the update with UpdateMe"
We don't support OTAs at the moment.
Please download the newest version of our ROM from the website.

That's the problem, though: I HAVE the newest version (as far as I can find) downloaded and flashed. I'm looking at it right here, file name is Slim-i727-3.1.0-OFFICIAL.zip. However, upon flashing it, my phone says 2.6. And I did read the FAQ, that's the minor part of the question I asked, I just thought I should include it for detail.
That said, let me repeat: Why would a downloaded 3.1 version of SlimBean give me 2.6?
Okay, I solved the problem by reflashing (again), and it's finally 3.1. Not sure why it wasn't working before. Anyway, thanks for the [lack of] help!

Sounds to me like you may have flashed the ota update fix which, if flashed after 3.1, would revert your build.prop to the earlier version. If that's the case, there's no need. The updater app issue was corrected with 3.1 and you would have known that if you read the whole thread. In fact, this exact problem was already discussed in the slim thread. Reflashing the 3.1 build is the only fix.

Sorry to post this but havent seen any updates on any types of root lately, being that the Bounty Sampwnd thread is locked. i know that there is root for the Bootloader v1 but havent seen nothing lately on the Bootloader v2. Just curious as to if it is being worked on or forgotten. I know its a big job with Samsung putting its bootloader on super lockdown and i am in no way nagging a dev to rush, was just wondering how it looks or if files are needed or what may be the problem. Thanks.
PS. before a dev comes on here acting crazy, i dont need root,not as of yet, but, i havent seen the question asked lately and i know some people want to know but are afraid to ask haha. So im doing it for them. And Im pretty sure people,well maybe just me, is getting over flashing back to qk5 and to the next oreo update. Flashfire is a Godsend with that type of thing. Thanks

Yeah I guessed that much. Ice been messing around with the files that I have but to no succession as of yet. I will be messaging these guys hopefully if I have time tonight, and see what they can do for us cause it's possible,but, in their thats I haven't seen anyone ask for it. They modify a whole bunch of stuff for you and all you do is install and let them know what happened and if successful you are only allowed to share the finished product by giving them acknowledgement and a link to their site. Well that would mess it up for me hahaha. I'll see what I can do
Good luck.

luck is actually not needed in this process.. There is a developer who actually has had his QK5 rooted. He has been very busy working and said he will surely upload his method when he has free time. at the moment he is releasing the G950U bootloader 2 root. For those of us with rhe G955U will have to wait for a bit as he has to build it for us. Thankfully for him, S8+ has not been forgotten. Unfortunately the bootloader is still locked but thata ok. As long as we have some sort of root.
Will keep this thread updated once i receive confirmation of methods.

QK25 is a modified version no one will see because its a typo geez.... QK5 is what i meant but the QK5 rooted is already out. Partcyborg has released it on his thread. As far as the root for Oreo,not sure if it will stick as of yet. still downloading the Bl and AP from Partcyborg. I was gonna try and make a system only update for it so ill let you know when i get done with it.

Is there another of obtaining root for say like the 2BQL1? Something similar to say SamPwnd or is root only obtained through an AP flash created by You? I ask only because on Christmas Day, I spent my whole morning and afternoon trying to get my phone to actually boot up into it and not sure why but flashed multiple times and couldn't even get stock to boot after continuously trying to get the Samsung account fixed on the Rom provided. But also so we all know that if we wanted to flash say any other bootloader 2 Rom we could have root on any. But in every current event, thank you partcyborg for your dedication, time, and hard work you do for us here in the s8 & s8+ threads.

If you are having flash problems the issue is your USB setup. The most common case is usb3.0 ports that are apparently not compatible with the s8, particularly with large files like the samfail images. If your ports are usb3 switch to usb2 ones and if you don't have one a usb2 hub has been reported to work.
Also try different cables and check your drivers

Yes definitely with partcyborgs Rom. If you were rooted on rev1, I didn't like the first root, you'll be happy with what he has done. Smooth and everything,well almost everything, just works. By far, a better root experience than what we've had.
