Some times my phone wont wake-up, then i hold the power button for a few seconds the phone will reboot then.
Do you have the same problem, its tooks longer to get your phone on...
Tested on rooted XXKP4.
1. Extract the achive called "xUltimate 2.2" then start Main.exe.
2. If everything is ok, xUltimate will recognize your phone (don't forget to turn on "USB Debugging"), then you will see a menu.
3. Run option 1, after option 1 run option 2.
4. Run option 3 and after option 3, run option 4 and wait
5. Close xUltimate
6. Copy folders "done_app" and "done_frame" to root of /sdcard/
7. Put the folder from "gscript.zip" to root of /sdcard/
8. Install BusyBox_installer_3.6.3 (run (root needed) and click on "Install", then wait to finish (wtf ) ), after this install nl.rogro.GScriptLite.
9. Turn off and turn on the phone (restart)
10. Switch the phone to "USB Debugging" mode and turn on "Emulate Location"
11. Go to GScript Lite --> Menu --> Add script --> Load file --> Deodex.sh --> Save --> Run
12. Ok, now the phone will restart.
13. If your phone doesn't stuck in bootloop, seems everything is ok

how do i check for that? i used "my files"(show hidden files) and tried to connect to pc via mass storage. i cant find "system/app" or i should use third part file explorer on my phone? Sorry for being a noob.
use a file explorer like root explorer to get access to the root of your phone
Thanks. all files in system/app are .apk that means my phone is deodexed. Thanks guys...
The links don't work.
Could you reupload?

Wifi Tethering Mod
Here are the original instructions use the zip at your own risk. It seems some people are experiencing problems with it...
I have modified the instructions to pertain to the Flex exactly.
This mod is not for the newbie, you must be rooted and I implore you to make a safe back up file in a new location of the file you will be editing. Actually two back ups, one completely stock the other you will use for editing.
I have edited his instructions for usage on the Pantech Flex running ICS.
Here’s the usual disclaimer: if you brick your phone it’s not my problem…. though I will help in any way I can as in my research I soft bricked my own device and was able to get it restored to a factory state.
Steps:
1. Root device using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/show….php?t=2008888
2. Acquire/Install SQlite Editor or any Android SQL editor of your choice, Install ES File Explorer or Root File Explorer
3. Navigate to (root level) /Data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/
4. Copy file settings.db Navigate to SDcard/Backups/ now paste file to this location
5. Rename the file in Backups/ settings.db to settings.db.bak (if all goes to hell this is your backup file)
6. Paste the file again so you will have two settings files in Backups one ending in .bak and one ending in .db (this is the file you will be editing).
7. Open SQLite Editor and point it to /sdcard/Backups/settings.db and open it. You now will see a list of settings locations. Click on “secure”
8. Here you are going to be looking for two distinct lines. The line numbers may vary by device so I suggest you list name in list view:
Line 1. softap_free_supported
Line 2. softap_entitlement_interval
9. Change Line 1′s value to 1 in the SQL editor. Change Line 2′s value to 0 in the SQL editor save and close or just close depending on the editor.
10. Using your file explorer navigate back to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/ rename settings.db to settings.db.bak
11. Navigate to /sdcard/backups/settings.db(the one you edited) and copy the file go back to com.android.providers-etc and paste the file.
12. SUPPER IMPORTANT if the file permisuions on settings.db are not rw-rw-rw make them so in your file explorer.
If these permissions are no correct your phone will get stuck on the AT&T boot screen. ie softbricked
13. Reboot and you should be able to go to More in settings then Tethering & portable hotspot and turn it on set up your settings etc.
14. FYI under battery management you may want to change the value to never time out as it applies to the phones activity not the wifi activity.
This had been tried and tested on AT&T only it may work on other carries. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Zip Method
You must be rooted and have CWM intalled.
1 Download the recovery mod zip file to the internal storage of your phone.
2 Reboot into recovery and make a CWM backup of your phone.
3 From recovery clear the cache and dalvik cache
4 Install the zip from the location you saved it to.
5 Reboot your phone.
6 Go to your phone settings wireless and networks, click on more, click on tethring and portable hotspot, click the box next to portable-wifi-hotspot. You are now up and running.
7 Personalize your hotspot settings in portabpe wi-fi hotspot settings.
8 Grab a free app like Hotspot Toggle to add to your home screen for easy one click on and off.
A huge Thank You goes out to Timmythanoob for making my original mod zip installable!

Its because the file you edited is in your data folder. You will need to change a few things in your system folder to completely enable it.

Use the manual method for now we have a new zip file that should be up within the next 24 hours.
The manual method only changes the exact strings of info pertaining to tethering so it doesn't disturb the system files etc.

The link to flashable zip file is not working. Would you please upload again or provide a valid link?
Sorry guys all the zip installable files people have done for me have not worked for various reasons.
The manual method works tried and true on AT&T. I don't know about other carriers but I'm sure you would want to look at the same settings in the same file for changes.
By the way bluetooth tethering also works with this mod, but wifi tether yields much higher internet speeds.

Root browsers request root at (their) startup.
adb can pull from system partition but to push it needs root in order to remount /system as rw.

Sorry for been so rough with you before .
But
1. You should replace the first step in the OP with the following command (done in PC)
Code:
adb pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk
2. Add in the OP that your method can be dangerous.

Not exactly.
SystemUI is the status bar so if it doesn't get loaded status bar will not appear. Also due to some weird bug the Phone app FC sometimes.

It's rare to get a bootloop by modifying SystemUI.
All devices have download mode but without root it is useless.
This tutorial installs SystemUI as user app (in /data) so even stock recovery can delete it.

but in this case its relavent because the only way to fix a bootloop in this case is to root and restore, other then that your bricked.
also a bootloop is very easy when modifying systemUI or framework-res
and no not all devices have download mode, htc has a bootloader menu, and if you didnt disable hotboot before modifying, then theres no chance of fixing this...

Hi,Thanks for your reply but as according to the your post you provided,I can't see any box (infact what is a box,I even don't know that) in root/mnt/media_rw/extSdCard folder and can't follow the rest steps in tutorial...so If you can please explain that clearly here...will be great..plus I am using ES File Explorer as Root Explorer & My Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duos is in Root Mode..!
Waiting for your reply,

have you flashed stock rom by sammobile and are you facing problems with sdcard
and under my direction you should use root explorer
mine was not fixed by this method
one day i was exploring my sdcard and i found 81 gb virus file in a folder but my sdcard capacity was 32 gb so i copied all the things from sdcard except the virus and formatted it
moved all things back and it got fixed
may be you should also search your sdcard for virus or scan it with antivirus
es file manager does not show any box so please use root explorer
Hi,
I didn't flash any rom to it.It has it's own stock rom.plus give me specific name for a root explorer cuz I searched for explorer with namely as root explorer but didn't get any explorer as for root.so please let me know the link of root explorer application which you call a root explorer for the job.plus mine extSDCard is showing applications used space as 484 GB while my extSDCard is just 8 GB so while shows the rest capacity perfect.so it seems something wrong in there but how should I know that where is the virus located or what should I do please?

Download root explorer - http://www48.zippyshare.com/v/71518744/file.html
FIrstly you should copy all the thing present in sdcard and if nothing appears like copying box
copy folder by folder and the one folder which doesnt copy and as i mentioned that the folder which is making windows to do nothing means nothing happens when you copy the folder.
except that folder copy all the things and paste it in pc volume and format sdcard and move things back
I used the SDFix App
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
Need access ROOT
click thanks if it helped
Hey raonizal its a problem caused by a virus not by policy so you should find for a virus in your sdcard
