Not sure what you mean you couldn't get it to work. The guide is for all the KJ6 One-Clicks. Either way glad you are up and running. You are now on stock. Follow the first link in my signature - where applicable - to get to a custom ROM. No app will do this for you. And you know now NEVER use ROM Manager on this phone.

again i would like to think you for the time u took to help me in the being i only wanted to know if i could hack my ps3 with my sgs4g and i found this forum an u know the rest again i only have one more ?

How/When did you do the back up. The guide I pointed you to - Heimdall One-Click For Dummies - doesn't reference a back up. Also, I assume your music was saved to your sd card. Are you sure it is not still on your sd card?

i used the first guide that u to me to use i download cwm5+voodoo lagfix, valhalla-black and i love it so far and now im bout to flash thunderbolt v2.77 i had valhalla-final but like v-black just cause i love colors on disrespect so once again thank you
cant find sdcard in file and it keeps soft reboot on lock screen and once again im very happy for your help

The soft reboot is likely because you need to go in settings - tweaks - lockscreens and select a custom app.
Maybe connect your phone or sd card to your computer and look on it to see if your music is still there. I don't use stock file manager (use might download a root explorer like Super Manager from tbe market), but if you open it you are likely opening directly into the root of your sd card. Maybe explain that issue more and I can try and help.
Also, there is a VB Q & A thread that you may browse as it has a ton of answers to issues people have had.

Memory Question

hi Guys,
Quick question about my galaxy R
i have a 32 gb card installed in my phone, when i look in storage tab within task manager it says below:
System Storage: 1.97 GB
USB Storage: 3.75 GB
SD Card : 29.70 GB
so when i install a big game (600+ mb) & say move to SD card it is moved to "USB Storage", this restricts me by installing limited games although i have lots of free space on my sd card.
Can anyone pls tell me how do i moce it to SD Card?

oh sorry my bad...
i did extract & select the .tar file (and not apk) within the zip that i downloaded, trust me man i read that guide like 5 times before doing it.
also when it failed for the first time, i re-downloaded the file & retried the whole process but no luck
i had loaded cfw on my psp earlier which worked perfectly but i'm really struggling with this

Please check the file you have donwloaded is not corrupted or broken. If still persisting with the same issue, you can try CWM 5 by Adam77Root.
CWM 5
Procedure is same. But use this CWM tar file in Odin instead of the one you tried earlier.:fingers-crossed:

Try it buddy and after downloading the .tar file, try to open it with winrar, if it says file couldnot b opened or corrupted, then diwnload it again. Sometimes our internet connection stops in between downloading and hence file become corrupted. Try it and its not recovery mode its downloading mode..

Not Bad for 6.5k($120), is it?

U guys should first check if its already unrooted . Cause the funbook come pre unrooted.
If not u can try a software called unroot me. It worked for my Funbook alpha.

do u mean 'UNLOCK ROOT' ? i can't find any software named 'unroot me'.
btw i've checked 'unlock root' , it didn't worked.

3G dongle
Can anybody tell me how to use 3G dongle with funbook infinity?
I have Idea Net setter (Huwai) with Idea card.

there is indeed no software named unrootme (troll alert, @shankermk?)
arun, anything worth sharing?

hey, a big welcome shivam. you will love the people around here.
congrats on buying your first tablet.
i've heard that huawei cards do work on this one(mine is d-link so no cake for me).
but somehow, if we gain root. then most of the things will work in it.(things like bluetooth, gamepads)
all is not lost people, keep your hopes,and smiles up.

Hi ,
Can the developers please mention which all methods have been tried and resulted in failure or bricking of the device. This may help other people to avoid those chances. Also has any one tried installing sparkyroot.apk . infinity has the same config as xtab.

Rooting
Here is the description of different methods i tried on it.
unlockroot: recognizes the device, flashes its name. but after "trying to get shell root permissions", it just returns to normal.
superoneclick: freezes on step 4 "failed to set prot mask"
Sparkyroot: doesnt even starts its process "SU binary not installed"
maybe the long way (the one used to get root permissions on pre-froyo era) through ADB may work here after some modifications, of course, but have no experience using adb ))
did you guys try any other?

First i would like to say,i dont own this fun book tab...Im a proud owner of galaxy note...
Ok that being said,to gain root all you must need to do is push susperuser.apk to/system/app and its binary "su" to /system/bin to gain root...now you guys need to find a way to do this...if anybody knows to use adb you can try any exploit...sorry if you guys already know it
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

I havn't tried any yet. Just bought the device yesterday evening and searching the net fo any hit.

Or if you device runs android 4(ICS) you can try to put a cwm zip containing the required files in your external sd,boot ibto recovery and select apply update from external sdcard and select the zip.It might work in a easy way....Because afaik ics allows to install zips from external sd which are test signed...
Note1:The zip must be named update.zip to work.create the zip then sign it and pls dont edit anything after signing as it may break the signature
Note2:if you dono to enter recovery you can try "adb reboot recovery" command in adb(without quotes)

@ creagrox, thanks for welcome note,
If I can use 3G dongle, definitely, I am interested in rooting.
I think there is no bluetooth in this funbook.

Videocon A45 - Android Phone Status Bar missing and Phone keeps Restarting itself.
My Videocon A45 Android v2.3.5 Phone keeps restarting on itself....
Also, when it starts "sometimes", it shows (com.systemui process error) and asks to force close ..... i see that the status/ notification bar on top which displays your battery, connections, usb connections n all, is missing.
I have Rooted my device.
This problem started soon as i was using root uninstal software and i was backing up some apps and uninstalling them to free up some internal storage...
but i guess i have uninstalled some, which i shouldnt have...
Please tell me if you need some more information to solve this problem....
Please please help me out with this Thank You...

I think you uninstalled some system apps. May be the systemUI.apk , it is the one which is responsible for the status bar.

You should have had a backup of your systemUI else at least a nandroid backup.
It seems you don't have a Custom recovery like cwm.
Also you don't have the systemUI backup i think.
Other choices as you don't have backups-
Search for your device's CWM try to flash it & then find a custom Rom for your device and flash it.
Another way is that ask some of the members with the same device as yours for the systemUI.apk and push it into the /system/app either with the help of adb or CWM through aroma filemanager.:thumbup:
Please do a little search on what i am suggesting and try to learn & do as i can't post all the methods step by step in a single post.

Any methods that i know couldn't help you AFAIK.
Coz there are ways complex for you to get into right now. (such as taking logcat through adb, finding & debugging the problem)
Better try to give it in service center, and don't say that you rooted the device.
They can easily flash a fresh firmware for your device.

Steps for flashing a .img file to a specific partition ( here, recovery ) :
Here are the two methods :
1st Method ( Using ADB ) -- This needs the phone to be connected to the computer.
Go to the folder containing the recovery.img file you just downloaded.
Shift + Right Click on any empty space in the folder and Select Open Command Window Here
Connect the phone to the computer and make sure you have USB Debugging enabled and not USB Storage
Type these into the Command Window :
adb devices -- This should show the Device attached as KarbonnTitaniumS5Plus-xxxx or any such line.
adb get-state -- This is to ensure USB Debugging works. It will show device, recovery or offline, but here, we would be looking for device
adb reboot bootloader -- This reboots the device into Fastboot mode, also called as HBOOT or Bootloader. This mode is necessary for flashing the recovery.img file
fastboot oem unlock -- This is to ensure that you can flash xxxx.img files to specific partitions of the device.
fastboot flash <<partitionname>> <<nameofrecoveryimagefile.img>> -- This flashes the specific partition image file to the specified partition. Here, we would be looking for something like fastboot flash recovery philzrecoverys5plus.img for the PhilZ Touch Recovery and fastboot flash recovery twrprecovery.img for the TWRP Recovery and fastboot flash recovery cwmrecoverys5plus.img for the.... Well, you understand what I mean. This should show some text on the device like Transferring Flash or Writing Flash and the Time and Speed of it, that would confirm your flashing.
fastboot reboot -- This command reboots the device into the normal system, and lo, you're ready to go !

From here, you can reboot to recovery and back again without any issues. This is the tried and tested method, the method which worked perfectly when I tried it on my device. Else, if you have no patience for connecting the Phone to the PC, jabbing on the keyboard and entering n number of commands, you could try this out :
2nd Method ( Using Terminal Emulator ) -- This doesn't need the phone to be connected to the computer.
Place the recovery.img file in the Internal Storage or External SD Card -- Here, I'm placing it as in storage/sdcard0/xxxxrecovery.img
Install Terminal Emulator or any such app onto the phone and Open it.
Type these commands one by one :
su -- This gives root permissions to the Command Executor.
flash_image recovery /storage/sdcard0/xxxxrecovery.img -- This flashes the recovery image file to the recovery partition.
Close the Terminal Window.
Done !

Another Note : If you're following the Second ( Terminal Emulator ) Method, note that there is a space between flash_image and recovery and the path of the image file. The first method is the preferred one, which worked perfectly with no errors for me; while the second method is risky and might return some errors while trying it out.

Another Loooooong Shortened Note : The TWRP Recovery might, in some rare cases, show your battery level as 19% when it is at 99% and the same goes for the others. If you are encountering this error damn frequently, I'd recommend reverting back to the original CWM basic recovery as it doesn't show any battery info at all ! You also have the option of wiping your Battery Statistics in case the Battery Error in the Touch Recoveries made the system too show the same error. Once, after fully charging the phone to 100% and rebooting to recovery, I found that the TWRP recovery showed the battery level at 19% ! Out of curiosity, I rebooted back to the system and it too, showed it at 19% ! I just plugged it into the charger and was like Whoa !, as the battery sprang from 19% to 24% in 7 seconds flat ! I know that neither the reboot to recovery does drain out that much battery, nor does the recovery randomly perform such miracles on it. So, I just flashed CWM basic recovery to it using fastboot mode, opened it, did a Battery Stats wipe and rebooted to the System. It was back to 99% ! So, a full Battery Statistics wipe helped me solve such errors, and might do the same to you too. Just remove the battery from the phone after you power off from the recovery, put it back in, and let the phone start up. Problem Solved ! Damn, why didn't I think of this earlier ?

Yet Another Short-But-Not-So-Short Note : I'd recommend disabling the Boot Animation on the phone ( using ROM Toolbox Lite or Pro ) so that the possibility of bootloops is diminished. No Boot Animation = Less Chance of Bootloops !

One Last Note : ( Yeah, Right. )
The MIUI ROM and the Sony Xperia v2 ROM work properly. For people who have boot issues, doing a full data wipe/factory reset through the recovery will solve that problem... MIUI is pre rooted, but chainfire's SuperSU app is not installed and there is no keyboard app. The Sony Xperia v2 ROM has SuperSU installed and works properly. However, a high amount of patience is needed to wait for the ROMs to boot up...
As mentioned by cybercrawler, the internal/external swap supposedly works, and appears to be already applied in these ROMs... so, if you are going to flash a new ROM, you had better undo this change...
The clockworkmod recovery file works too, as seen in the screenshots uploaded by cybercrawler... thanks to him for testing that out.
I shall be uploading some screenshots of these in a few days. Both the ROMs run Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2, and the MIUI ROM has a update scheduler app, so I'm guessing it can be updated to 4.4 Kitkat. Anyway... if anybody knows how to bypass Dropbox Error 509 ( This account's public links are generating too much traffic and are temporarily disabled ), please download the Xperia Z v1 ROM and upload it to Google Drive...
Check this thread for further development on this device.
If anybody is willing to volunteer to try a ROM still in development for this device, you can download it here :
https://tr.im/CarbonForKarbonnv1
It is NOT READY FOR FLASHING, but is a Kitkat ROM, so anybody willing to put in their efforts in the development of this ROM can help.

Yes and No.
No, as it isn't included in the device's features and comes with no otg cable.
Yes, if you buy a third party USB OTG cable and install chainfire's stickmount app.

Still working on the Carbon ROM... May take a few more days to create a working,booting ROM !!!
( Creating a new update binary file now, old one wasn't working. )
Anyway, after this and the flashable stock rom zip file, i'll be porting miui 6 to this device !
After that, maybe, I was thinking of an Android L ROM for this device...
Anyway, Back to Project CarbonForKarbonn for now...
Could anyone upload the specifications of moto g (codename falcon) in a post here ?
I need to know it's features and some information abt. it, like whether it supports dual sim, has external sd card support, etc.
so that I could rectify any problems which are occuring because of such non-compatibility errors.
Looooooong schedule... this might take forever...

You need to have ADB and Fastboot tools and the recovery file in the same folder.
Connect the device to the computer, open USB Debugging in Android, open a command window in the folder with adb and twrprecovery.img image ( Shift + Right Click ), and type these commands in it :
adb root -- Don't worry if this shows any error like adbd cannot run as root in production builds. Just proceed with the next step.
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrprecovery.img -- This will automatically format that partition and install the recovery image to it.
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
Done !

Anyway... Building the final parts of the Carbon Nightly ROM, also simultaneously working on MIUI 6 for this device.
Stock ROM build is happening... Just have to generate the updater-script and the update binary.
Status of Each Build :
Carbon ROM : Needs a new Update Binary, creating it, coding it.
TWRP Recovery : Done !
MIUI 6 : Downloading the latest release version. Porting and Update Binary and Updater Script pending.
Stock Flashable Zip : Creating all Update files from scratch, system folder is ready, deodexing pending, App updates pending.
Xperia v3 : Boot Animation Build Progressing, Updating all stock Google apps, Adding Xposed Framework, etc.
Android L ROM : Waiting for a Stable Android L ROM to be released here, still no progress.

Here are the basic mount points of this device which I accidentally discovered while messing about in the Stock ROM :
system : [email protected] : dev/block/mmcblk0p8 -- This is for the System folder, has ext4 partition type
data : [email protected] : dev/block/mmcblk0p10 -- This is for the Data folder, has ext4 partition type
cache : [email protected] : dev/block/mmcblk0p9 -- This is for the Cache folder, has ext4 partition type
Hope it helps !

Which do you think is better : External SD Card as Main Storage or Internal SD Card as Main Storage ?
Anybody can reply by posting here.
This question is for the Carbon ROM and the Stock Flashable Zip ROM.
I felt I should ask you this question as I felt that Internal SD Card has way too less storage for me, but my decision cannot be everybody's decision, can it ?. ( I have 180+ Apps on this device, all linked to SD Card ( 32 gb, ~1.5 gb free space remaining ) ).

Is there any way to change the on-screen soft keys to look them like that of Nexus 5 lollipop soft keys.They look really cool and other thing is the transparency of the on screen buttons.It would be great if you made this above mod in the new ROM

Yeah, I'm working on that. You know that camera you have in other Xperia devices with all that Timescape feature and everything ? I'm adding that to the updated version of this ROM. But, the ROM will still be based on Android Jellybean 4.2.2. I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do about that because, if I change the base OS, I'll have to rebuild all the apps from scratch to fit alongside the new permissions and all that stuff, which will take off most of my time.
I'll consider your decision about the Main Storage, but there's one drawback about using it that way. You won't be able to remove your SD Card or unmount it while the OS is on. If that's okay with you, please reply. Anyway, if you want to change it afterwards, you can do so by the vold.fstab edit which cybercrawler had mentioned here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55154053&postcount=31
Thanks for your opinion, by the way !
