[APP]4.0+ ThreeInTouch[BETA]

I saw this posted somewhere and thought it would be useful for those on the 3 network in the UK with poor reception at home.

You got a poor signal at home on the THREE Network?
Spoken to THREE yesterday (I'm on the 3,2,1 pay as you go plan) and told them about the poor signal at home and asked them about "HOME SIGNAL", they informed me that this is only available to people "on contract".
They offered me an APP (Which is still in the BETA stage), called "THREE IN TOUCH", which allows you to call and send and receive texts over a wi-fi connection ) [using your phone number]. (They send you a text with the appropriate link).
They informed me that whilst this is in BETA stage, calls and texts are FREE, yes free. The APP goes live on the 27th July 2014. After this date, calls and texts will be charged at standard rates (i.e. 3p / min, 2p / text).
So just to let all the THREE pay as you go people know about this, thought I'd share.

Will this work for people on contract? Got poor signal here at home.

If it's a 3 contract, then presumably yes. It's intended for 3 customers only.
I didn't realise that an activation was needed. I'll add that to the first post. Thank you.

I've just tried RootCloak (with XPosed etc) but Three Intouch still wouldn't run. Also tried RootCloak Plus (with Cydia and SELinux) and that didn't work either. I'm runnng Phoenix ROM 8.0 (Android 4.4.2) on a Galaxy S4. Any other rooted S4 users having any luck with Three Intouch?

I tried with rootcloak too. It just gets stuck on activation.

I don't even get as far as attempting to activate - the app won't start up because it detects that I am rooted.

Just tried Three inTouch today. Works okay. There's certainly a few features it needs adding before it's ready for full-time use though.

What version of Android are you running? I tried both rootcloak plus and rootcloak on my Android 4.4.2 phone and couldn't get Three InTouch to work with either of them (it's a Galaxy S4)

You may have got "Three In Touch" working with Rootcloak by now but, just in case you haven't then I confirm that several of us have found that the released version does work with RootCloak. The thing to do is to ensure "Three In Touch" is not installed and started BEFORE you manualy add the app to RootCloak. If you had installed it and tried to run it on a rooted phone BEFORE installing RootCloak then completely uninstall it, install it once again, make sure the app is added to RootCloak then fire it up. It should now work.

Note 5 Update ~ 296MB Just Became Available On My PHone

Unless I missed it, I haven't seen a thread on this....just received a 296MB update which is installing now.

I got it too. I did notice that they put the APN Settings back in under ##3282#....Edit. However, mine was greyed out.

Got the update here in Nolensville, TN.

What update is it? I'm on PD2 but rooted with Moar 4.1 rom

July security update.

I can confirm the APN settings are also greyed out with this update.

They've been greyed-out since the Marshmallow update.

Prior to this update you couldn't even access the APN Settings through ##3282#...Edit. You could only see it in the View option. Now, its back in Edit but you can't do anything with it as its greyed out. This is a good sign that hopefully Sprint will give us the option to edit our APN Settings again.

Pretty sure Sprint isn't going to allow you to turn on Hotspot. You'll have to do it with SQLite Editor. I've been on Samsung devices since the S3 came out. APN has never been editable. The fact it was on the Note 5 here was just an oversight.
Just for conversations sake, can anyone else confirm the size of the update? Mine said 269 not 296. Not that I'm taking it tho rooted with TWRP.

Does anyone know if this update effects my ability to flash over to another rom like MOAR 4.1 ? I am guessing it shouldnt matter if I flash to the older firmware first but I want to be sure.

Just got the update this morning. Hotspot still working.

With this update FP scanner will not work if the screen is locked via Greenify or other screen locking apps.

Rooting on Nougat.

As we all know Samsung has started pushing the final Nougat build to users, Indians are going to get the OTA soon in the coming weeks. I want to update my phone finally & root it at the same time. Before I do that I wanted to clarify the steps I'm going to perform with you guys to avoid any mistakes. Hope this is full proof.
I'm currently on 6.0.1 SM930FD.
The attached screenshot has all the steps I'm going to perform, the only change is step 12 where ROM will change to Super su zip file.
I hope there is no modem changes? Or any sort of bootloader upgrade that needs to be performed?
Thanks for all the help people, hope this helps everyone.

Its the same procedure I think. We have got the rooted Custom STOCK ROMs as well.
I'm from India and flashed the BTU firmware to checkout the official unrooted Nougat.
I'll try rooting today and let you know.

Well I found much better way with installing this [Universal Script S7/S7 Edge] UniMod V1 (Debloat+Root+Busybox+AdBlock+More)

So I've been watching some videos on how to root s7 on nougat & I can see mostly people using magisk with phh root? I really liked the idea of magisk as we can un root the device at any give point just with a simple switch. Imagine OTA updates (not sure if it works) though there is flash fire for that purpose but if magisk works flawless then why not? What are your thoughts on this?

If you use this, you may get bootloop on Nougat Better to root and remove the apps by Titanium Backup.

Yeah I've seen that video made by Shark Jungle channel in YouTube. I did not try that.
He said that Magisk is not workin at the moment.
To use phh root, you need TWRP.
And Inorder to get the OTA updates, you need to have stock Recovery
BTW, You can also unroot in supersu with one click.

Thanks. I had seen some information indicating we MIGHT get some iteration of 7.1.x before getting 8.0. Who knows when we'll get 8.0 though. It's in beta now for the S8/Note 8, but even for those phones it's still probably going to be at least a couple of months before they get 8.0. And we definitely won't get it before they do...

Correct, it went from binary 4 to binary 5. From what I've read and gathered once you take the update you can't downgrade firmware because the older ones are using binary 4

One minor (major) thing they left out of the change log. People are complaining on the S7 forums because they can no longer flash to U firmware. I haven't tried it, but I've also seen people have issues with rooting now because they need an updated eng_boot.

Does anyone have this firmware for download? it's not on Samfirm yet and now im stuck in a recovery loop and trying to flash the previous firmware fails due to the new bootloader. Google shows nothing.

Here is the Sprint firmware, for use with Odin, from the newest release. I can't take credit for finding it -- I requested it in another thread and someone posted it for me. I have now put it on my GD (the link below), just in case the original one goes away.

[Guide]Kinda root Q DP1[CROSSHATCH]

Hey fellas , a few days ago i stumbled across this kernelsu or KernelAssistedSuperuser (read up on here)
since this is a kernel modification its working on q DP1 regardless of the new overlayfs .
I would be kinda carefull with this so , since there is no management of root access (like magiskmanager or supersu app) it just allows anything.
Also please be aware that even if ur rooted now u still cant mount system as read/write , so many rootapps / rootstuff is likely to not work.
Im not quite sure if this will trip SafetyNet or not
If u want to try it anyway , here is what to do.
Download the boot.img for DP1 from here or for DP2 here
Reboot ur phone into fastboot (if u dont know how , pls dont use this)
flash the new boot.img by typing "fastboot flash boot pathtodownloadedboothere" (without the "")
Reboot into Android
Profit
In case u would want to switch back to non root , just flash the boot.img of android q for 3xl like u flashed the rooted boot.img and ur back to stock

it could and it could not , it depends if the app needs /system to be writeable , for example adaway doesnt work bcs it wants to edit /system/etc/hosts , but luckypatcher for another example works fine bcs it only works with /data.
Just try and report what works

Anyone else try this yet?
