Hello guys. Maybe you can help me. I tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-...using-t3088431
As the step 6 says, there wasn't such a line so I created it. As some of the first comments stated, when I restarted, I got stuck in the AT&T logo screen. After a few attempts of restarting it wont do anything else. so I tought that a master reset would fix it. I was able to reset it however, it asks me to set up the phone (common stuff, set language, pick wifi, set google account etc) but when those steps are done it takes me back to language screen, and then repeats all over again
Im stuck in that infinite loop. One thing is that at certain screen I'm able to access the settings, and we managed to put the phone in "easy mode" which allows me to use the phone, however, I cant go back to normal mode because it will get stuck in that same infinite loop. This is what I have:
LG-H950
Android 5.1.1
Kernel: 3.10.49
V: H95011x
I need HELP!!
Thanks
First of all, the link doesn't work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-g2/help/enable-tethering-att-lollipop-using-t3088431
So you said that your phone is stuck in a boot loop. I think that you have to reflash the original kdz.

I just checked the link and is working. If you still cant see it, this is what it says:
Things needed for this
Root
ES File Explorer File Manager
SQLite Editor
Steps:
Open ES File Explorer and from Fast Access Bar, From "Tools" Turn "Root Explorer" on
Go to this folder "\data\data\com.android.prodivers.settings\databas e" and copy "settings.db" file to "\SDCARD\Downlad" path
Open SQLite Editor and go to "FILES" tab from the top and open "settings.db" file from "\SDCARD\Downlad" path
Hit "system"
Search for the term "tether" in all fields
Change the value of "tether_entitlement_check_state" to 0 (If the entry is not there, create such)
Copy and replace original "settings.db" file from "\data\data\com.android.prodivers.settings\databas e" with our edited "settings.db" file from "\SDCARD\Downlad" using ES File Explorer
Restart the device immediately
Enjoy your ability to set up a mobile hotspot!
And, sorry for my ignorance but, how do I reflash the original kdz?
Can someone help me?
Use LGUP, select refurbish, choose the tot file, press start.

Is there a screen capture feature built into this phone? I'm currently running ARHD 3.6.4. I thought the button combo was power+home, but that just either brings up the power menu or tiled home screen. No screen shot.
I don't know but I'm currently using version 4.1.7
I can capture by pressing power button along with home (don't press power button too long)
try this on your room, it might work.

Negative,
as mentioned, Power + Home does nothing but tile the homescreen, bring up the power menu or put the phone into sleep mode. I've experimented with timing of the power+home key presses which explains the different results.
If it does take a screen shot they show up in the gallery right? Cause that's where I'm looking and no screen shots are in there.

I found the screencapture entry but when I try and edit and save (using ES Editor) I get an error: "Error occurred when trying to save the file. It will not be saved"
Before editing it directly on the phone I tried copying it to my SD in order to edit on my PC. When trying to move it back to the phone it said: File cannot be moved.
EDIT:
I just noticed the file does not have write permissions enabled. So do I have to copy to PC, then change permissions, edit/save, change permissions back and copy to phone again?

Hi,
Use ES File Explorer.
Go to settings and make sure "root explorer" and "mount file system" are ticked.
Then edit the file,save and reboot.

Both options are greyed out.
I tried to check the "root explorer" box and got a warning confirmation, something about being an "Experimental Feature", hit the Yes button then it asked for Superuser access, which I said yes too.
Then it flashed something like "Test Failed".Now both options are still greyed out and nothing happens if I tap to uncheck them.

Download File Expert, go to menu and settings and enable root explorer - Check mark the /system directory and hit menu then say mount RW.
I found this one works much easier for editing files than ES Exp.
I don't know about custom rom's but in the stock, yes. However, I have absolutely no idea what the screen cap button is. All I know is that I've accidentally taken a few and they're in my gallery lol

Man, I'm sorry but this is just NOT working.
I installed File Expert, changed the settings to enable Root Explorer, checked the /sys directory and enabled RW.
When I try to edit the file it wont save the changes.
I've tried editing the file using ES Note Editor, File Editor and File Expert (although the latter does not seem to have an editing function; no keyboard pops up when I tap the text).
When using ES Note Editor I change the screencapture command from FALSE to TRUE then menu>save. But when I open it again to view the changes the command is still FALSE.
When using File Editor to change the command I get an error when trying to save: "Error occurred when trying to save the file. It will not be saved"
I also noticed when I click out of the editor and back into the file directory the checkmark in /System folder is unchecked (like the Read/Write permissions revert back).
I appriciate the help. I had no idea it would be this complicated

Ok. Try way B.
Skip trying to enable the internal one and go to the market and download drocap2. It is free and works great.
Just use an app called "shoot me".
The perfect screen shot app that works on all roms.
Just instal, go to where you want to make the picture off, shake your phone and voila its in your gallary with his own folder.
Just google for it. its not in the market anymore
OK first off new here so thanks in advance for any help. I "have/had" a rooted S3. I copied a new framework-res.apk file that resides in \system\framework. when the phone rebooted it gets to the main launch screen however I cant do anything. error says com.android.phone has stopped and android ui stopped. I have a copy of the original file however I cant get root access to the folder i need to place it in using Android commander. inside android commander it says "root access unavailable" Any Ideas???
im in the process of downloading the stock rom using section 6 of the how to guide however if there is a way to just transfer the file back that would be better than starting over.

I have an Atrix 2 running 2.3.6 rooted. (Rooted with SuperOneClick)
I want to enable the Wifi Hotspot feature, I have read several threads on this group, but I do not understand if I download SQlite on my pc and run it or my phone.
I downloaded the program on my phone, but when I open it all I get is a black screen with a box in the upper left corner with a magnifying glass in it, below that I see this "/data/data/com.xuecs.sqlitemanager/databases/defaultdb" The instructions I have read make absolutely no sense to me, the first step says "open settings storage" There is no way to open any thing as far as I can tell. I'm kind of lost here....Can someone help me out?
I want to update to ICS, I get an error, it downloads the file, resets the phone, when the android screen comes up the insallation bar goes about a third of the way then it stops and then it reboots, once its up and running it says "update failed" I have opened SuperOneClick and hit the unroot button, it says it was sucessful and it removes the Superuser app but the ICS OTA update still does not work. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
More detailed instructions for enabling wifi tether can be found at the following link, and I'm also pasting them here in full for anyone else curious. Note that this was the procedure for enabling everything on ICS. I'm not sure whether anything is different on Gingerbread.

Things you will need:
ES File Explorer (free from play store)
aSQLiteManager (free from play store)
1. Launch ES File Explorer and within its settings, grant it full root permissions (near the bottom of settings, go in and check all four checkboxes).
2. From ES File Explorer navigate upward out of your SD card and onto the root of your device, then go into Data/Data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases
3. Copy the "settings.db" file found there over to your SD card
4. Using aSQLiteManager select "Open Database" and pick that settings.db file on your SD card.
5. Select "settings" from the four tables you are presented with
6. Select "Data" from the top button menu
7. You'll see a long list of crap. Hit PgDn until you see line 113 "entitlement_check". Hit Edit and change the value from 1 to 0.
8. While you're here, also go to lines 117 and 118 that start with "dun" and change them both from 0 to 1. This is not necessary for Webtop but will enable wifi hotspot tethering.
9. Exit aSQLiteManager, go back into ES File Explorer and this time copy the modified "settings.db" back into the previous/original folder from Step 2, overwriting the old file.
10. Exit ES File Explorer, reboot your device and Webtop should work as expected.

I figured out what I was doing wrong, I didnt have the File Explorer at first..lol Once I did take care of things and rebooted the phone I kept getting errors that said "The process com.motorola.service.main has stopped unexpectedly" I hit force close and cancel both but the error would keep popping up at random times, plus other errors would pop up random apps running in the background would stop unexpectedly. Then the power button would not lock the screen anymore....The tethering worked though! I ended up doing a factory reset because the errors popped up so often the phone was useless.
I did not touch anything else but Line 150 which was the Entitlement Check line so I have no idea what went wrong.
One other thing, I would like to uprgade to ICS but since my phone is rooted I can't do it OTA, is there a way to manually do it? I remember when I upgraded to 2.3.6 I just put a file on the SD card and installed it, can I do that with ICS 4.0?
So, like the title suggests, my factoryapp folder is missing, I've used Terminal Emulator to try and fix the factory mode problem but it tells me that it can't find efs/factoryapp, I've done a factory reset but my factoryapp folder's still missing, I didn't backup my efs folder, is there any other way, besides service center, that I can exit factory mode? please i found efs folder in my phone but there is no factoryapp folder my im is normale wifi the same but i have black window with yellew writing in the home screen thanks

Did you enable root permissions first?
Download es file Explorer, enable root for it from within its menu, open up the correct sequence of folders and it should be there. It won't show up if you skip that step.
I wouldn't do it from the terminal.

if you have a custom recovery
download aroma recovery file manager (here https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&r...hp?t=1646108&usg=AOvVaw3IrkRJtoE8dYTO2APQ7bWj)
flash it and copy the file to your sd card
open it in pc and then change the lines back
put it back in the sd card
then again go to file explorer and then replace your build.prop with the new one

dwnld aroma file manager, then flash it with cwm. go to location of build.prop, and since you used root explorer (dats good), rename current build.prop to "build2.prop", den look for "build.prop.bak" and rename it to "build.prop". Now reboot your fone and see if issue esolves
Better u can use twrp [way beta than cwm]
Moreso, dwnld MiracleBox to help with the fix.
Good luck
