I'm new at rooting and searched and searched but couldn't find any answers for some questions I have. I apologize in advance as I know you guys get a million questions most of which are the same. I have an att galaxy s4 and I used towelroot to gain root. Afterwards I tried to install a custom recovery and tried both cwm and the other one (team win something or other) and both installed fine but neither would give me an option to backup anything up. Now when I try to boot into recovery it doesn't give me any options anymore it goes straight to the android logo and says downloading but nothing happens as I let it sit for a very long time and it does nothing. Then if I try and mess with any other buttons it says trying to install a custom Os can cause damage press volume down to cancel. Which I do because there isn't any other option... what am I doing wrong? Anyone with some help would be appreciated thanks in advance

It says I'm too new to post on development threads. How do I check what operating system I have to figure out which version of safestrap I need. My phones build number ends with nc1 if that helps. When reading that post I didn't see any version with the last 3 of my phone

I been on the search on how to root my Galaxy s 4g from Us Cellular called the Aviator... (Brand New... Only been out for a week.)
The thing is that USCC is CDMA but their 4g network must be GSM. I don't know if this is a hybrid of CDMA and GSM together or what. (<------ Don't know if that is relevant but tossed it in.) Cant find much on the phone yet....
Anyway my question is the steps to root and flash the same as the T-Mobile sgs4g?
I have tried several different ways and all have been unsuccessful and nothing seemed to work. All that I tried were Software based rooting programs. Super One Click was the most recent and failed.
You need to check the model number under the battery and tell us what it says before we can give you proper advice.
Its the SCH-R930.....
We can't help you in this forum. This is for the SGH-T959V.

For future reference, it appears the name of the phone is Galaxy S Aviator (Samsung Stealth). Your phone is VERY new. Give it some time and you will likely find develpment for it before long.
As topic says, I need help finding stock firmware. I have an AT&T Galaxy S4 model number UCUFNC1. I need the firmware to remove the "custom" bootup screen, which appeared after installing the xposed framework. I'm not very technical with android at all, so if anyone can help remove the signs of the phone being custom such as the boot up screen and the firmware marked as custom in download mode, I'd appreciate it. AT&T tech support doesn't help unless everything is official so just in case, I need everything to look fine, so I probably need to flash back to stock firmware. Thanks!
Hi,
I believe what you need is here....
> AT&T, Canadian Bell, Rogers, Telus, Virgin Samsung Galaxy S 4 > AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General > [16 May] Official STOCK firmware collection for Galaxy S4 (AT&T/SGH-I337)
You can ask for help with it in this thread as well.
Good luck!

Dear All.
I bought my HTC one used phone from Dubai last week and got back to Jordan. The phone is locked with pin, and nothing changes with or without sim card. The phone is originally from Us with Verizon brand. I tried to use HTC chat service and they tried to help resitting the device to factory settings and even I still get the same situation. Any body can advise me what to do in order to get my device unlocked. Thank you.
Hi,
Sounds like a used phone to me, where someone has set a pin lock screen. If so, usually the phone needs to be completely wiped and stock firmware flashed to it.
But for other opinions , please ask in your device section, here....

I'm not familiar with that exact phone, but perhaps you are talking about SIM unlock pin? If so, you need to likely purchase one on a cell unlock site on the internet, since Verizon won't do it if you're not a customer.
Here is a thread on SIM unlocking,

To explain Samsung Galaxy J100H can not be rooted with any app(e.g. Towelroot, Farmaroot, Kingroot) till now. The original method by Dodynoe(at dodynoe[dot]com) is also not successful in rooting the device because the root file(kernel) he developed does not match will all devices with different zone variants.
So please do not use the root.md5 file to root your Galaxy J1(with Odin and iroot method), because many of us bricked and took our phones to service center or had to flash the stock ROM again.
Now please can any developer find a method or file or app which can be tested without bricking the device.
My device is
Samsung Galaxy J100H
based on Android 4.4.4
Firmware version : J100HDDU0AOF1(Indian Variant)
Build Number KTU84P.J100HDDU0AOG2
