[RECOVERY] Interim ClockworkMod Recovery for the S4 based One X

I built an interim unofficial ClockworkMod recovery for the S4 based One X to test on my rooted AT&T unit. DD'ing it to the recovery partition on that results in a tamper warning (as the bootloader is locked), but it should work on Rogers' units etc.
Feel free to try!

Not for AT&T. We have a locked bootloader.

ah, thank you. also, glad to see you here kenneth!!!! i flashed your roms all over my atrix(not 4g) before i got my atrix2. as you see ive moved on to the one x as well. hope to see alot from you here, your great at what you do. much apreciation for the atrix and what you may do for this phone as well.

so the nandroid backups work (though its only of /system, /data, and /cache)
Mount usb doesnt work just yet.
And either something is wrong with my updater script, but it flat out rejects zip's with Status 6 errors. (doesnt even do the ui print's)
everything else though seems to be working.

Was able to dd on the Rogers HOX thanks again Paul!!
sent from my Hawks(HOX)

It's just a hack-job until Koush releases the real deal.
Has anyone sent him the stock Evita images?
P

which one's do you need?
recovery.img, boot.img or the full rom.zip?
Dev Host - Evita RUU's
PS: Can you please share you packing method with sk806

I don't need any. I can't actually use this yet. ;-)
But Koush will probably want the stock boot.img and recovery.img files.

i feel so left out with my att version =[

I just unpacked this, and the recovery.fstab and boardconfig are the same as what I was doing. I could build one for endeavor that worked, but not the Evita...I wonder what I was doing wrong? Did you build from the CM9 repo? Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks again, Paul.

Nah, in the interest of speed I just repacked the Endeavor CWM with a fixed recovery.fstab, appropriate init.rc and default.prop files (not really important) and the Evita kernel.

I have the same question. The file is "i777-4.6.29-4.4.zip". Since it is posted in Galaxy Note 2 it may be for note2 but can someone please confirm? I am excited to try Kitkat based MIUI

I downloaded the zip as quickly as i could and yes i did notice i777. I thought maybe it works , because another MIUI dev had multiple names and still could run.
The build.prop says i777 too. I'm not sure what to do next. Any help would be appreciated.
Exited to try this new baby

The op says for s2 i777, might he be mistaken by the forum lol

yep build.prop needs edit as all relates to i777. pretty sure system board is different from n7100. you could try replace build.prop from another N7100 KK rom with one in rom zip as that could help!
---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------
also some really good and more knowledgable people on here than me so if they feel to might advise you on edits needed...............if can be done for i777 so n7100 might not be far behind.

Sorry if I'm being stupid, but i also tried replacing the build.prop.. Thank you for your time and replying back. Getting back to my previous rom.
I guess we'll have to wait until the op decides to respond or someone else has some definite say on this.

ZTE Grand X Max (z787)

Attention!!! this thread is for the ZTE Grand X Max (z787) NOT the ZTE Grand X Max+ (z987) Do not attempt to flash anything meant for the Max+.
Hi everyone,
I recently purchased the ZTE Grand X Max and of course the first thing I did was look for a root method. No luck. So, I wanted to start a support thread for this device and hopefully get root, cwm/twrp and all the goodies that come with root.
Please feel free to reply and maybe together we can make this phone great. I will monitor and update this thread with the latest news involving this device.

It is and Cricket has increase its price to $220....

he can help
Everyone that's honestly willing to donate to this man ask him for help on this device he worked the galaxy avant when no one else would he's awesome! But he's busy and I'm not affiliated with him in any way other then knowing his work on the avant! So not like he's asking me to say this I just got this device I've messaged him about it and I know I'll donate if he can get it going! Ppl come on here and think these roots and rims magically appear they don't these guys take there own time to work these things and it's nice of them yes there not doing it with the promise of a pay check there doing it because they like the challenge I believe and to help ppl out the least we can do is give a donation to thank them for the time I'm not a developer I'm anyway don't know any except from here and other sites but I'm just saying we want someone to take time away from what ever else there fling to help with our phone let's make it worth it!
Get ahold of SHABBYPENGUIN he is good!
Scratch that can't be done ZTE patched the way it used to be rooted can't do it any more and good chance this phone will never see root that sucks but I opposed to donate to hey him to work on it and he says can'tbe done!

So is there just no one working on this phone or what?... I'd really like root, and anyone that can get it sorted out will get $10 from me

Will pay $$$ for a Grand X Max + Root!
I wish I knew how to figure out the root process for this phone, but unfortunately, I do not. However, I will also pay $10 to anyone able to figure out how to root this device. So far, that's $20 ($10 from previous poster [Muhff], $10 from me) that is offered to find a way for us ZTE users to root our phones! I'll sweeten the deal and pay $30 myself if I see a post in this thread that contains the solution before August 2015. If you know anyone on the site who may be able to figure it out, please spread the word about this. Thanks!

How To Root ZTE Grand Max + (Z987)
Guys,
I have posted a video on how to gain permanent root for the Z987 on my you tube channel. Please let me know what you guys think please thumbs up if you like the video. I have a Pay Pal at [email protected]. Thanks.

Anyone have the stock recovery img for this? I used flashstein's method and TWRP didnt fully install or something and now I have no recovery.

i believe you can do a full backup with adb/fastboot by opening cmd and saying
fastboot boot twrp.img
for example. then, you can open the backup file and find the recovery img in there as long as you still have the stock recovery.
I found it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2310682
It would be very very helpful to me (and anyone with this phone) if someone with the stock recovery and fastboot + adb on their computer could upload the stock recovery image to the internet.
Im not very expert in it myself, im sure if someone with real knowledge swoops by they could do this in a second.. provided they have the phone.

@smilesintears77
You will need to install the TWRP.apk then boot into it. Via the power and vol. up buttons at the same time or use the TWRP.apk to boot into the recovery panel. Once booted into the TWRP recovery panel you will be able to install the su file.
I am working on a stock recovery image.

I just followed your video and it worked out. no problems.

[MOD][BETA] Advanced Reboot Menu for Tab 3 10.1

Hey folks,
I tried to modify Tab 3 10.1 Wifi Frameworks to natively enable Advanced Reboot Menu
WARNING:
- This hasn't been tested => I don't own a Tab 3 10.1
- This is a very earlier build => It may simply break your tablet or may not work
- This is a ported feature from an ARM CPU to ax86 CPU => It may just freeze your tablet every reboot :silly:
Do you accept all these conditions ?
If yes
Download the file from Mega.co.nz (290Kb)
Reboot to Recovery
Flash It
Reboot,
Long press power button and see if it works.
else,
Do nothing

Tested in my tab, but when I tried to flash the zip with TWRP an error flashing occurred! So for now it's a fail. Sorry.

I know I may sound s7up1d but what is "modify Tab 3 10.1 Wifi Frameworks" to natively enable "Advanced Reboot Menu"
What is the relation of "Wifi Frameworks" with "Advanced Reboot Menu"?
I bet you that is why you do not get reply. Another approach is like a Video or Picture of what you are trying to achieve. I have the same situation on my thread. But In my case I do not have anything to show yet. I am just testing various methods and had no real results. Good luck.

Carefully read OP before asking -_-

I am sorry you feel that way. And yes I TOTALY understand, "No one who care". Just because they all are selling this TAB3 10.1 x86. No it is Not because of it. It is a nice and acceptable device. It is just because everyone sooner or latter got tire of not able to do Mods. Source is incomplete and to many proprietary drivers. SAMSUNG, INTEL & GOOGLE please read this fact and learn for the future.

jdeocares hi I guess it is first time we chat. I do not think I was rude with him. First my English as a second language made me read wrong message. I ask my apologies to him. Then he express there is nobody left to test. I totally agree with him.
Regards this project, I do not see what he is trying to accomplish, What is this "Advanced Reboot Menu for Tab 3 10.1". I ask him for and explanation and suggested he post a more graphic method of what he is trying to accomplish.
So the only I could do was to opened the package to get a glips of his work. And found all is store in a "android.policy.jar" that I can not look at. I see his work is base in 4.4.2 KK and I have 4.2.2. So without more explanation or a reason as why I want to pass all the work to backup and install KK, I left.
Nonta72
Like I said I do not see a gain for me. Now without installing I look again inside your zip file. I can only imagine that you are using the wrong "update-binary", my best guess is that that one is for ARM!. Just a guest. I say this because it size is 168kb. The size of that binary usually is around 521kb!!
So try this one.
Here you have a friend. Keep the good work.
Note: Can I see the source of that "android.policy.jar".

Thank you.
You're right, I used an ARM update-binary sorry
You're also right, It's for Android 4.4.2.
About the source of the .jar files; well, I downloaded Tab 3 10.1 KK Firmware from SamMobile.com then deodexed it. Now I'm trying to mod its frameworks without even having the tab on hand!
> Note: I can try to mod JB 4.2.2 frameworks if you're interested in testing.

No problem guys It was a misunderstood, all friends.

All of these new threads are the same. The cracked firehose from this guy https://m.cafe.naver.com/ArticleRead.nhn?clubid=27738104&articleid=273056&page=3&boardtype=L is where it all came from. The thread maker should give credits to him.
Anyway when you have hello packet error you just need to hold power button for 10-15 seconds and try it again. Or unplug it and hold power button for 10 seconds, release and reconnect

I will try it

Not working….
"can not found programmer file"

Wow you people never seise to amaze me!
As soon as I've joined the forums, I've seen the uncontrollable need of people to open dozens of threads for the exact same thing. Instead of having one thread where everything about that issue is shared, we have 5-6 threads and it's very easy to get lost.
And to make things worse, people do it so that can get appreciation even if it's not their work!
I understand the brick issue is huge, and the help is needed, but don't make a new thread when there is one already, someone may miss some important info.

Indeed. I came from the Motorola Defy, a legendary powerhouse with its 800 MHz OMAP3, 512 MB RAM and 2GB storage which - mostly due to the diligent work of a group of developers centred around Quarkx2k - went all the way from Gingerbread to KitKat without any support from the vendor and without ever unlocking the boot loader. I was one of the developers for that device and as such was generally satisfied with the level of the discourse in the Defy section of this site. Unfortunately the same can not be said for the Whyred section... from the multitude of 'bro' posts through the karma whoring plagiarisers to the number of 'mine no workee fix it' single-line commands I must say I'm disappointed in the direction the XDA forum went.
To all you out there who feel accused by my writing, please realise that developers work for free, in their spare time and share their work freely. If you expect instant service find a paid support channel, if you want to gain fame by posting someone else's work as your own realise that the only fame you'll gain will be that of a wanna-be. If English is not your first language, fine - it isn't for me either - but do try to write something at least resembling that language or find a forum in a language you are more proficient in. Some words are just too obnoxious to be used, 'bro' being a prime example of such. Just drop 'm, they don't serve any purpose.

thanks you
my device back to live
thanks very very much

Thank You so much. i was pretty worried. i thought i lost my phone or will have to pay around 120$ to get motherboard replaced but this worked.
For those who are also going through this. My mobile was dead. no response, no boot, no recovery just dead. Only appeared as Com 8 in drivers. i followed this method and it worked. took 660+ seconds to flash but worked. Thanks to whoever is actually behind this method.

Apply Immediately to get authorization Mi ID.

The thing is like that, I had the phone bricked due to the anti rollback and to fix it I tried this method. There was no problem in the flashing process.
The phone turns on and shows the icon of the empty battery (without the percentage below, only one empty battery), so I put it to charge. After that I try to enter fastboot mode to start twrp, and enter for a few seconds and then return to the empty battery logo. I enter to despair because after that, whatever I do can not get it out of there. I left it loading a time and nothing. In a moment I managed to turn it off, but I could not turn it on anymore. I decide to flash the rom again because it seemed another brick.
When trying to flash back, the previous method was rendered useless, because in some way or another, it needed the authorization of xiaomi ("You are not authorized").
Anyone have a suggestion on how I can fix this?
