Read all instructions everywhere before attempting this I am not responsible for anything you do to any of your devices but I have used this myself multiple times and it works great.

Until it is CERTAIN that entering SERVICE MOOD and/or DOWNGRADING from 3.50 will not disable BluRay DVD Playback on the FAT PS3, I will not do it... I want the bluray movies to always work on it..
But I do really want to downgrade and jailbreak.

Can I still play online with the downgrade?????

Can you tell me what payload is good with this and where do i out the payloads. Would you consider this better then psfreedom amon ra v1.3.1?

No you can't play online yet. maybe in the future.

Hi, i am using Hermes v3 payload and it's working great.

This has already been posted and discussed in the PSFreedom thread, even Klutsh has posted and talked about it, and I think thats what every one is talking about right now in the PSFreedom thread. I don't think that we need this thread, though its not my decision on whether or not to close this thread.

Check out these two images, we now know for certain which PS3's will lose Blu-Ray playback

model numbers
If that list is for real, that would be so nice... How can i find out all the info on my FAT PS3 ???? If i turn my ps3 around, my serial number ends in .... - CECHG01 .... please tell me something good

good stuff! thanks for this!

Does this img allow the use of homebrew packages? I have started getting everything set downgrade from 3.5. I got the img to open factory mode last night. Just want to make sure once I go through all the steps, I can use what I have or will I need other files.

Can anyone tell me whats the latest HERMES for G1 or latest PL3. I am coming from the original enable_psfreedom disable_psfreedom trick. I dont really know all too much about payloads and any help would be appreciated. I already have this as my recovery i just need to learn a little bout payloads.

The stock payload has no peek and poke, so you need to load a blu ray to play your back ups. I haven't bothered with the other options, but from what I read, their are more stable newer payloads that have less chance of crashing during use.....

Can you tell what their called and where i can find them. I have this installed and i found hermesv4b but its just a file. Its not a bin or hex file so i dont know how to use it.

Hi all Im sort of new to this whole scene but I have a G1 with recovery-PSFreedom-Dream-v1.3.1 on a Fat PS3 3.41 and it works great. But i want the best PL and other things that at are available including downgreading and everything else can some one please tell me what I need. In short I want the Best of the best for my G1 I have been to a post and it has all the PL's (I think)but I dont know whats the newest/best to put on my G1 also are there any other goodies that may be out there that I dont know about for my JB Thx

Sticking with what you have stock on the images is best....you can experiment with payloads. A few sites carry compiled bins and hexes, others will need to be compiled to work. The only thing most are missing is the br patch for playing backups....just need a blu ray booted and then go back to xmb and play the backups.

Should work for:
Gogear Connect 3 8gb SA3CNT08
Gogear Connect 3 16gb SA3CNT16 (not tested. may need to edit drivers with proper device ids)
Now there are Pre-Rooted custom roms. look at the bottom of the post for a link to the guide.
this is 32 bit only at the moment
on the official Phillips support forum they stated that the developers wouldn't give out the adb drivers, so i used the method found on hikboys thread to make my own.
Now its an actual guide!
1. Put your Connect 3 into "Debug Mode"
a. From the home screen, press the Menu button below the screen.
b. Tap the Settings option.
c. Choose Applications.
d. Select Development.
e. Check the box for USB Debugging to turn it on.
2. Plug in The USB cable
3. After the drivers install, uninstall them in the device manager
4. refresh the drivers and you will see device that says go gear connect
5. install the ADB driver, linked at the bottom of the page, for the go gear connect in the device manager
6. download the newest copy of super one-click from here
7. open super one-click and change the exploit drop down menu to "zergRush"
8. click on the root button and let it do its thing.
9. click OK on the popup to install busybox.
10. after that it may ask you to verify root, allow it to
11. you are now rooted. do a happy dance.
I Have Figured out how to unbrick and flash this device if you have Messed it up while having root privileges. this method can also be used to install custom roms once some are made. if people need the repair/flash method or wanna work on roms let me know in the comments and i will post the files and guides needed for it.
this guide is by mateo1212
Now there are pre-rooted custom roms check out the guide Here

just figured out updating definantly removes the root but you can use the same method to re root.
processor information for the curious=
800mhz arm v7 Cortex A8
Freescale i.MX51 EVK board

very awesome! i just got this for my son for xmas, root will be awesome. so much bloat on this thing.
going to try rooting now. Thanks again.
**edit** i gave this a try and it worked flawlessly. Very happy to be able to remove all of the bloat that comes with this device.

How do I upgrade driver to adb interface? I've rooted other devices and never saw this instruction before. Thanks
I got it rooted. Thanks so much

What I did is uninstall the original driver that installs when you connect the device. After you uninstall, reconnect it to your pc, use the drivers here to allow for adb.

hey. im glad my post is helping you guys. i have some thing i would like input on.
1. im in the process of working on a custom rom for this device, should i continue?
let me know. thanks
also if people with the 16gb version can give me there device ids i can make custom adb drivers for your devices also, because this method will work for your devices

Im actually thinking about purchasing this for myself and was a little skeptical until i saw it can be rooted..whats ur opinions on this device? is it worth it? im one click away from ordering. And id definately be interested in custom roms for this.

this is a pretty cool little device. the only thing i have a problem with is the screen size. its a little small for my fat fingers but in the end you get used to it pretty quick. there is a lot of bloatware on it also but after you root you can get titanium backup and remove alot of it. i personally love the songbird music program they have installed. it is soooo much better than the stock music player. some apps dont show up in market but you can always sideload them(downloading the apks to the pc and copying them over to the sdcard then using a file explorer to install them). in all i think if you dont mind the smaller screen it will be a good buy after you root it.

Yea the screen size is what I'm really worried about I've gotten used to the 4inch screen on my phone...I'm torn between this and the galaxy 4.0
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

yea my gf is going to be getting the galaxy player 4.0 around income tax time. she does not like the fact that my mp3 player does not have a camera..lol from what i have seen the galaxy player 4.0 is pretty easily rooted but there isn't any custom firmware for the us version i have only found custom roms for the uk and korean versions.
right now im working on making a rom thats as close to stock AOSP as i can get that includes root and some other helpful software.
im also going to make a custom themed rom with the Espier Launcher as the default launcher and im going to make it clone ipod as much as possible.
the processor is the freescale imx515 so im going to work on compiling my own custom rom from scratch as the hardware is similar to the evaluation board kit. but thats down the road. the first few roms will be based off of the stock rom
i expect my first rom to be out tonight or tomorow during the day

Drivers
When i uninstall drivers, I'm not able to install the new ABD drivers yet, when i uninstall the drivers, the device goes away. When i scan for changes, it installs the stock one, when ii try to update drivers, it says drivers up to date.... any help please.... Thanks
Windows 7 x64 OS

well first off. according to your post you are running windows 7 x64 and this is only for windows 7 x86. to get it working in x64 i need to finish the drivers and then i dont know if you will need to deal with driver signing issues.
if you are doing it in windows x86 make sure to delete the driver that shows up under "universal serial bus controllers" section it will show up as "USB Mass Storage Device" all you have to do is un plug it and plug it back in to figure out whitch one it is. but i repeat if you are running x64 THIS WILL NOT WORK

Fear not though i will soon be posting a few custom roms that are already rooted.
i have 5 in progress now
1 thru 3 are done i just need to gather up the files and write up the guide
1.the stock rom that comes with the device except its rooted and has a few extra utilitys
2.the stock rom that comes with the device except it is stripped of the bloatware and it is rooted and has a few extra utilitys
3.A close to AOSP rom, or atleast the best i can get, with root and a file browser and only the radio app from the normal rom (even has stock android boot screen)
4. A ROM that makes this device loosely imitate the iPod touch
5. totally themed ROM using launcher pro as the default launcher and it will keep the songbird app for music like the two stock ROMs. it will also have root

Ordered one last night now waiting for it to get here...

[ROM][06 May 2012] Flytouch 3 Superpad 2 TolgaMOD_FT3_v1.0

Hello,
This ROM is based on Tim6a and www_apad_tv-ibex-Flytouch-3-Firmware-V8.
I started customizing Tim's 6a ROM for my own use, basically since I wanted to see all apps compatible with FT3 on Google Play and I wanted to use ADW Launcher. Now that my customization is complete, I wanted to share it with the xda-developers community
The ROM is built to mimic a Samsung Galaxy GIO device. This device has a much smaller screen but has an ARMv6 processor like the FT3. So all apps downloaded from Google Play should work, and with good performance since it will be the app's QVGA version. Gameloft games also recognize this device, so for example you can download and play Ice Age Village.
Credits go to Tim for his great custom ROM, Apad.tv for firmware-V8, Axlien for the build.prop ideas, chairshot215 for performance tweaks. Thank you guys!
mod edit
I hope you enjoy this release!
Tolga
INSTALLATION:
Unzip the contents of mod edit] to the root folder of your SDcard, and reboot FT3. When the installation is complete, don't forget to take out the SDcard and remove the installation files.
If Wi-fi is grayed out after installation, it means that your wifi card is not 0803 v1. (default) Try enabling old FT3 or 0803 v2 using Tim's scripts in Gscript Lite.
To view all apps on Google Play, follow these steps after installation:
1. Open Google Play, accept the upgrade and accept TOS.
2. Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications and select ALL tab.
3. Go to Google Play, clear cache and force stop (DO NOT CLEAR DATA)
4. Go to Google Services framework, clear data and force stop
5. Open Google Play, and you should get a server error. (This is normal)
6. Restart FT3 and all compatible apps should be visible on Google Play!

I will try to ensure that all info about TolgaMOD_FT3 is up to date here, and will do my best to help in case of problems. It's best to report problems by replying to this thread rather than PM, so that the solution can be viewed by all users.

Hmmm.
I'm useing one of Tim's Roms... not sure wich one. The one where the screen is always dark. I tried dling your fixed stuff put it on my sd card it said it updated took out the sd card than turned it back on, but nothing had changed, everything was still the same? I have tryed the Power button+menu+front button to factory reset it, and still tims rom is still there with no changes. I just am at a loss now... really pissed to be honest. I cant even get the thing back to it's original original settings... I want to use your packet, any suggestions?

Anyone? I have just about tried everything and I'm on my last leg. I'm about ready to just rip the case open and K.O. the battery~

Hi billypaul69,
On my FT3, I just push menu+power to do a factory reset. Perhaps you could try that button combination to do a factory reset.
About flashing my ROM: Apparently the update somehow did not complete for you. I suggest you check out this excellent video tutorial from Axlien to flash a ROM to FT3, and see if it helps: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7xdpnoHLeg
Make sure you don't turn off your device, before you see the following message on the screen:
Updating system firmware completed.
Please shutdown your device and remove the installation card!
Automatic shutdown in 1 minute.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you see any other messages such as "not complete", "wrong system file" etc. and not the one above, please report them here. It's possible that either the .zip file you downloaded got somehow corrupted or the SDcard you are using for the update is faulty. In that case try re-downloading TolgaMOD, or formatting your SDcard and try again.
I hope that my suggestions work for you! Thanks for checking out my ROM!
Regards,
Tolga

Thanks soo much i'm going to try all the steps asap.

Hi
I just installed your new rom file and everything went Ok. The only problem is that my wifi network is not working. I can activate the wifi but it cannot find any network.
I tried using gscript to install on of the wifi patches but I get the following error message
"stderrermission denide" when I run the script.
Any idea as to why this is happening ? Apart from that, you rom is very snappy in operation.

Hi jammertn,
I'm glad you like the speed of my ROM, that was one of my goals indeed. I'm pretty sure one of the wifi scripts will correct the problem. For example my tablet's wifi works with the "old FT3" fix.
The reason you are getting the "permission denied" error is because gscript was not given superuser permissions.
The first time you run gscript, there should be a pop-up screen from superuser application asking for root rights. You should select "Allow" on this window. If you don't allow it or deny root access, the scripts won't work. If you denied root access and selected "remember" the first time, please launch superuser application from the app drawer and change the status of Gscript Lite to "Allow".
Since you have wifi not grayed out I guess your wifi is 0803 v2. Please try running the "Wifi fix:0803 version2" script and then reboot your tablet.
I hope that helps!

Hi and thanks for the quick reply.
From where do I launch superuser?

Click the middle button (the one with white squares) on the dock, you will have access to all installed apps including superuser.

OK I found the application.
One more question, Something happened and now gscript only sees 3 scripts. How can I make it show all the scripts like before.
Excuse all my dumb questions but I'm new at this.

No problem mate, I think the best way is to simply re-install the ROM You can backup your current apps with Titanium Backup.

Nice, thanks a million
I got it working now.
I'll be watching this thread closely.
Keep up to great work

Yay! I'm glad it worked, c ya around.

Hi Tolga
Is there anyway to activate bluetooth on this tablet? I tried using the gscript but cannnot get is to work. Any ideas ?

Hi jammertn,
This tablet doesn't have a bluetooth chip onboard. Tim's scripts are for driving usb bluetooth dongles. I'm not sure which ones work, but maybe the thread below could have more info.
http://www.apad.tv/apadforum/showthread.php?1358-Flytouch-3-Bluetooth-USB-dongle-testing-thread

Hi Tolga
Thanks for the reply, I have seen that thread but it does not have have any useful info in it. I tried it with an external usb/bluetootyh dongle but still no operation.

Hi,
I ran a quick web search and I haven't seen anyone successfully making a USB bluetooth dongle work on FT3. I think Tim included some kernel modules with the firmware for devs and testing purposes. So please don't assume it will work when you simply plug in any USB BT dongle.
Here's the support thread for Tim6a, there might be more info there:
http://www.apad.tv/apadforum/showthread.php?416-Flytouch-3-Hybrid-ROM-(rooted)&highlight=bluetooth
I think I have a USB BT dongle somewhere, I will take a look if I can find it
Regards,
Tolga

has this been posted on Apad.tv or tested on the iBex Flytouch 3 by people on there?

Do you mean if this ROM has been tested or if USB bluetooth dongle has been tested? I'm pretty sure TolgaMOD runs on Ibex Flytouch 3, since it's basically a modified version of Tim6a.
Here is my ROM's thread on apad.tv:
http://www.apad.tv/apadforum/showthread.php?2675-ROM-06-May-2012-TolgaMOD_FT3_v1.0

Thank you. I did try translate, but it says something like "Brush Application" so I had no idea what it was. Anyway, I tried it - still can't get my UG802 device to root. I've tried at least 3-4 different ways, this latest incarnation of UG802 seems to have a real problem with rooting.

Root with this software works
I can confirm this method. It works. Though i do not speak Chinese i could also install some kind of Google Play / Android market. Experimenting at the moment.

[mt6572] X-BO V5 Development/Hacking Thread

Anyone else happen to have this phone? The device runs on an MT6572 with 1GB, er, 512MB RAM, a 960x540 display, and comes with a swiveling camera (which is why some vendors would pass it off as an "Oppo" model). Android version is reported to be 4.4.2 Kitkat, API verison 19, but afaik the SOC used tops out at Jellybean, so can anyone confirm this, or is there an app to expose it as a fake?

TWRP image (works on the "Oppo" variants. Should also work on other X-BO V5 ROMs from what I can attest):
Code:

I did a dump of it just recently (even though there's already ROM images for it; had to do mine as I couldn't seem to find any "Oppo"-branded ones yet). I might do a CWM or TWRP recovery for this in case you guys are interested in customising the device in some way, or perhaps even port the ColorOS UI to it for maximum lulz.
EDIT: I couldn't find any hidden settings applets to toggle between device spec options (i.e. fake 4G/RAM/boot logo, etc) other than a "flash select" menu to change the reported internal storage size, but the following properties are confirmed to work:
Code:
persist.sys.changeain (use numbers 1 to 7 to cycle between animations)
persist.sys.signaltype (setting this to "normal" sans quotes displays the actual cellular radio type instead of forcing the UI to display either 3G or 4G)
persist.sys.devicememory (yep, it's for faking the internal memory size. Couldn't force it to display the real capacity for some reason [EDIT: Set it to "true" sans quotes for the phone to report the real capacity])

Have you tried checking the IMEIs on the phone? I could send you an NVRAM bin backup if that one's hosed i.e. you're getting invalid serial numbers.

Seems like some variants appear to be infected with com.android.ys.services or the ZZPush trojan. In my case it's embedded in /system/priv-app. Not sure if it's the only gremlin residing or if the manufacturer was making a fool of themselves by further infecting the firmware by integrating it deeply into the boot partition as what I attested with a friend's Allwinner tablet:
https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/...e805058f3d85381d215ca778/analysis/1458692140/

Sorry for the triple-post, but thought I might ask if anyone knows how to force the gradient status bar on later firmware revisions. I'd like to use the "S9_72KK_KK_3G_EMMC_32_4_XX_V36_ZXMD 20160116-153508 – yuanda72_cwet_kk-user 4.4.2 KOT49H" build as it has the option to show the actual RAM and /sdcard capacities, yet for some reason the gradient-style status bar doesn't show up whenever I use a third-party launcher.
Trebuchet on stock ROM:
Apex/Trebuchet/whatever on later builds:
Oh and I've also attached a small utility to change the faked device settings to their real values - special thanks to @hrk for the code I used to issue setprop and a bunch of other commands.

The app did not work
Is the app supposed to work, cause my phone is rooted but still the fake values remain.

Strange, it worked on my end and I was able to change the faked storage and cellular modem values to their real equivalents on my phone. Can you give me your phone's firmware build number? Also, if it's running off a later build, can you try updating SuperSU and the su binary to see if my utility works?

Can you tell us your phone's firmware version? Try deleting android_service_800000_0923_outsea.apk,the default launcher and the theme app (forgot the name of that one, let me look for it in a bit) off /system/priv-app then restart your phone. I don't have the phone with me unfortunately.

help
cant find the apps on file manager. aside from that what other way should i follow? the build number is s9_72kk_kk_3g_emmc_32_4_xx_zxmd20150701-113328
baseband version is moly.wr8.w1315.md.wg.mp.v43, 2014/12/26

Have you tried using a different charger on it? If it still doesn't budge it's either the battery or the phone itself then.

Yeah, but can you tell me what's wrong with your device? Simply asking for assistance without describing your problem wouldn't be of any help.

You can try flashing a stock firmware image to it. It shouldn't be that hard to do so, and there are links to said ROM on NeedROM too.
