I just recently purchased an Alcatel One Touch Fierce and so far I would have to say the money spent on it was well worth it.
What all can be done with this model? I have yet to find much of anything on the web regarding this phone and modifying.
I rooted the phone with Kingo after having some issues with another method. Easy as 1-2-3.
UI Launcher - So far... I have changed the fonts, various UI sections, colors, transparency, and more. I added a few new Launches to give a try. such as ADW. I haven't completely setup everything yet.
Rom, Radio, CPU and more - I have modded much throughout these and so far nothing negative. I am just getting back into phones again, yea im an 'old school phone guru", so a lot of this is new to me for the fact im not entirely 100% versed on everything Android especially the filesystem's more critical files and processes. I hope to learn more.
Post your experiences with this phone, what you've done, plan to do and anything you feel might help myself and others out there using this fast little quaddie.
Awesome phone. Great for the price. I made it able to screenshot, change the CPU, and other basic stuff like that. Sadly, there isn't an official version of Clockworkmod, (trying to find an unofficial version) and there isn't any custom ROMS..... I will find a loophole, but a great phone overall.

Alcatel One Touch Fierce - Stock Rom Anyone?
Anyone have a stock rom or can pull one for me? Carrier T-Mobile. I forgot to back mine up when I rooted.
I rooted and had an update come which installed and screwed up everything. I hard reset and I cannot get past the setup screen. I did however find some workaround and can access the file browser, music player and other apps via using googles built in search and selecting apps or phone at the bottom then searching for extensions or names etc. Was able to get to the camera too. Other than that the phone is useless unless I can get a stock rom and update.
Finally rooted but I can't find anything on web regarding ROMs or recovery etc sucks because it's a pretty good phone

i am not sure if i am posting this in the right spot but here is my question has anyone been able to root the new samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 wifi GT-P3113 8gb running ICS 4.0.3 from factory ??? any help would be great even if it is to guide me to the right forum thanks in advance
anybody? trying to root this device.
I just bought the tab 2 7.0. It's pretty nice. I requested that we get a section for it here at xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1617079
Does anyone know which Mod I can contact about this?
+1 for new forum... so Far loving this thing
Just got mine today, wouldn't you know it, first thing I do is look here for root even though it was just released two days ago.
Please add my vote for a new section.
I am in line too
I am in the same boat. I have tried every root process out there available for dual core Samsung devices and came up with nothing. Two things I would love to have for this device 1. Root(so I can restore my game data from my bigger tab) 2. A Bone stock ICS ROM.....I guess I should say a recovery as well so I can load a stock ICS ROM onto there.
Mine is on it's way from J&R and it's going to eventually be torn apart and put in my dash of my Nissan Altima to replace my headunit... but I def. want to root it before then, hope it can get it's own section and some dev's can root and ROM it!
i'm liking this tab, except of course lack of root yet (want to restore app data from TiBu!), but of course it's super early to expect it. i also don't like that tablet-mode statusbar/softkeys can't be hidden, so when I play fullscreen videos the buttons are always there. other than that, i am a happy camper.
agree, the notification bar always there takes some getting used to.
this needs root badly. apps2sd would be huge, among other things.
*sigh*
I am wondering how the root works an I am positive there are plenty of threads explaining this, my quesiotn is would the root be an exploit for ICS? or it is specific to Samsung?

It could go either way really. Some of the things in stock ICS are still there on Samsung's custom build of it. An exploit for either of the two is worth trying. The real problem is, how many Samsung ICS devices are there? Anyone look into trying whatever worked on the Galaxy Nexus for the Tab 2?

Sorry for the double post, but this is a method of root that could be an Android wide thing and not rely on a specific exploit. I know they use this for things like the Transformer Prime as well as the Acer A200, so I figured anyone with some development knowledge could take a look at it as I am clueless on that front.
Forgot to include the link, duh.

I tried a few things from the Acer side as well and came up with nothing. The only official ICS devices for Sammy are Galaxy nexus, and one of the galaxy S II variants. Most times they are rooted through Odin first. This device needs some pub so we can grab a dev or two's attention.

I'm chatting with a developer in private messages right now. I got him to try the mempodroid exploit and he says that it looks like they have closed the hole. Maybe I should send him a link to this thread.
Yes, please do. If a developer needs anything from the Tablet, mine will be at my house tomorrow... I have access to and know how to use ADB, so I can contribute towards helping get us root!

+1 on this. I received mine yesterday and started any known exploit with no success. If any dev needs me to test something let me know!!! We need this thing rooted yesterday and custom roms tomorrow!!!
We also need a separate forum on xda. Just saying.
BTW, Diablo - awesome idea for the head unit. I'm interested to see how it works out!
I went ahead and sent him a link to the thread so we can document any findings that anyone comes across.
I was thinking of using odin to flash the CWM for a plus 7.0. The possibility of bricking my device and not having backup to flash is holding me back though.
Once we have CWM rooting it should be as easy as flashing a zip file with SU included. Right? I'm in no way a dev, just a guy who thinks he knows what is going on.

There is a system dump of our device floating around here, but using odin is the way to go and using another devices odin method setup as a template is probably our best bet.
If we can install CWM, which would have to be built, then we could theoretically flash a superuser.zip, but I think the superuser.zip is a little more complicated than installing just the superuser.apk. I am pretty sure it also includes busy box and binaries, but I am also not a developer so I am just giving it my best educated guess.
I just got mine a few days ago and I will try to odin if you can find a compatible file. I will most certainly lie to microcenter about it being a brick to get a new one.....Just like I did with sprint. I told them it said something about an update and when I clicked it I lost power when I powered it back on it kept looping. So lets get craking on this
As you guy probably know though, you'll want to be very careful with odin. If something goes wrong or it is flashed the wrong way, you will totally screw your device up.
Hi everyone,
I am pretty much a complete newb when it comes to rooting and flashing android devices, but I would like to try a custom ROM to speed up my TF101. I currently have a TF101 running ICS 4.0.3, with a build number of 9.2.1.27 - 20126015. I really want to get some knowledge of how to root, flash, and everything else to improve the performance of my tablet while sacrificing as little stability as possible.
I've been looking for guides and tutorials to help newbs like me, but I can't find anything stickied on the forums. Can anyone direct me to the appropriate resources, or explain the whole process to me like I'm 4? I do have a little bit of experience with flashing ROMs, as I had an old HTC Touch Pro that I had custom ROMs on - back when it was a way longer and more painful process than on devices now.
Thanks,
fedorsauce
look for PERI tool in the forum, use it to install a recovery, then from that recovery, you can flash any ROM you want. all roms come pre rooted i think.

If you do not care for Samnusmg stock, then I would suggest that you flash the Carbon ROM KitKat 4.4.2. This ROM is AOSP but is like cream cheese - smooooth and bug free. I have a N8013. Samsung based KitKat is a really poor effort from Samsung. It is quite average...
If you are bent on having Sam stock, try Gnabo ROM. Actually, try carl1961's method here first to get an idea of KK on the device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2770009 .
It is a very good starting point. Be careful what recovery you flash. For all I have suggested, Philz advanced CWM recovery works smoothly.....Flash this first then theROM.
Good luck!

Get stock firmware from Samsung or Sammobile.com . and flash with ODIN.
Unfortunately Samsung will not be releasing any updates past 4.1.2 for the gt-n8013. They have come to the conclusion that anyone in north america does not deserve an update and will never release the update for the tablet even though they had an official press release stating we would get the update.
They don't care that you paid a premium and promised updates for this tablet. They expect you to buy a new tablet every year to get any android updates!
Two words! LEAVE SAMSUNG!

So i rooted my gt n8013 using key root master i used root checker it said it was rooted.

Pretty sure you need a pc to get the custom recovery installed.
Really then what does the cwm recovery app do?

Any custom recovery needs to be designed to Work for your specific device. It may be possible to install a custom recovery with an app but you should definately do lots of reading before you attempt it.

No "Development" in Settings
I'm pretty new to this, so have patience with me.
Just installed KitKat 4.4.2 on my GT-N8013. I wanted to tick the USB Debugging" checkbox, but there is no development section in the settings.
Am I missing something ?
Yes you are. In order activate the developer section you have to tap on build number about 7 or so times. That will make it appear.

Hi,
Today I rooted my phone. First with the automatic CF-Root thingy and Odin3-v3.07 but then later on I decided to go with CWM instead.
Now I'm realising that CWM isn't updated for my Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F), and I wish to re-root it, with the freshest versions available.
I've searched for the latest versions, but found nothing but malware and spam.
Questions: What ODIN version should I use? Link to it?
Is there a CWM version for my phone? Link to it?
Also, latest CF-Root link would be awesome!
Thanks guys.
Please review [HOW TO][UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER] Gain root, custom recovery, prep for modding on your S5
In case of further questions, please feel free to post on that thread.
Okay, now I'm using the AllianceRom, and not being able to wake the phone up by pressing the home button is driving me insane, can't find it anywhere in options. Help please?!
Which ROM do you recommend?
After spending what feels like an eternity (like 8 hours straight) with flashing, recovering, backing up, wiping, restoring etc. I'm just sick. So I installed the original image.
But that made me feel nauseous.
ALL I'm looking for is a light weight app, that allows me to disable all of the **** that clogs my phone and interface (Samsung Printer and pretty much every other Samsung app)
I don't want to be able to customize kernel values, I just want it to be lightweight, preferably power saving, and not much other than that.
I'm almost always using TWRP because I've never had a problem with it and the menus make sense.
Please, help me, what ROM fits me?
Okay, I found XtreStoLite and I'm in love.
Having a problem with Play Store though, it's not loading, as mentioned HERE. But since I have less than 10 posts I can not ask him or the developer how to fix it.
Thanks in advance!

I'm a complete newbie in the Android world (iPhone user), so I'm so sorry in advance if I'm asking a stupid question. So today I bought an Alcatel Hero 2 from Amazon. The device hasn't arrived yet. The device has Android Kitkat on it and from some youtube review videos I knew that the customized Android version installed on the device is chubby so I thought if I can upgrade to vanilla Lollipop then the performance will improve.
There is very little information on the web about the Hero 2. I only found a webpage (can't post a link here because I'm new but google for "upgrade alcatel hero 2 lollipop" and you'll find it) that says one can upgrade to Lollipop, but it seems to be SCAM. Thus I thought it's better to ask here to get trusted answers since I don't want to get into security problems.
I know what ROMs are and have a little background but I don't know where to get trusted ROMs or if it's possible at all to upgrade my phone. I appreciate any answers.
Many thanks in advance!
Probably not, unless Alcatel comes out with its own Lollipop update or more threads appear here for Hero 2 ROMs.
The Hero 2 isn't very popular, or at least well-known, in the US. I'm surprised you even found it for purchase. Was it on the US Amazon site or a foreign version? Got a link? I was interested in a Hero 2, too, but I could never find it, and now it's getting a little long in the tooth.
Sorry this isn't the answer you wanted. Is it an all right phone overall, though? Reviews were generally favorable.
I don't think there is Lollipop rom for your device.
Hi guys,
any news about lollipop update? Im choosing between Hero 2 and LG G3, but Hero 2 is cheaper for me and it has little bit bigger screen. Any advices please?

This is weird, I looked all over and cannot find any links for original flashing files, not even 4PDA.
But, the rom I ported has no sound (unless you wear headphones), and camera is not working. This was basically just an experiment on trying to port it for first time, but sadly I do not have the device anymore so I won't be able to help much.

Meanwhile I'll try to keep looking for the original stock ROM for your device, there has to be something.
I'll let you know if I find anything.
