Root SHV-E220S Android v4.4.4 PDA: E220SKSU0CNL2 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
As you may know, after almost a year an update is released for SHV-E220S. Because this phone is limited to SKT Carrier in Korea, nobody cares about it. But do not be afraid. Here I am ready to help you root your updated phone.
I don't know why but any of the conventional methods don't work on the SHV-E220S. Believe me, I tried vRoot, Towelroot, z4root, Framaroot, CF-Auto-Root, etc. with no success. But the following method works like a charm.
Before beginning, I should thank the "www.sayanogen.com" guy who provided the custom ClockworkMod recovery called SH. So thank you man!
Requirements: SHV-E220S, SD Card, ODIN
1. First of all, because you can't normally, i.e. without root permissions, access the SD card via file managers in the to-be-upgraded Android 4.4.4, you need to download the "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.40.zip" from the following link which contains "SuperSU" binary files made by Chainfire and put it on your "SD card" before upgrading.
- Don't put the file on your "Phone Memory" because CWM recovery can't access it.
- Do not extract the file. Put the ".zip" file, as is, on your SD card.
http://download.chainfire.eu/641/SuperSU/
2. After finishing the file transfer, you need to update your phone to the latest firmware which is currently E220SKSU0CNL2 Rom. You can use OTA, Kies, or ODIN method. Feel free to use your favorite method. For ODIN, you should download the following file from SamMobile page and update your phone via the instructions specified in that page.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/40233/E220SKSU0CNL2_E220SSKT0CNL2_SKT.zip
3. After you have upgraded your phone using ODIN, restart the phone and let it do its work. After the phone finished upgrading, reboot again into download mode by pressing and holding Volume Down + Home + Power, followed by Volume Up and load the "GalaxyPOP_CWM_SH", from the attachment, into "AP / PDA" section of ODIN window and Hit "start".
4. Now you have CWM recovery on your device. Enter Recovery by holding "Volume Up + Home + Power" buttons. Select "Install zip from SD Card" and load "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.40.zip" file.
5. Well Done :good: You've just successfully rooted your phone.
6. Press the "Thanks!" button .

TRY it at your own risks
seems odd. but you can also try to manipulate network modes in SKT menus using codes
in dialer
319712358
password
996412
change settings to its default like Full/Auto etc.
OR YOU CAN ALSO TRY (if rooted) using root explorer
navigate
/system/csc
on that folder edit "sales_code.dat" something like that.. and change 'SKT' to blank or nothing else just erase the "SKT"..
save it..reboot
there on settings/more networks/mobile networks
you'll have mobile network mode.. select GSM only for better signals for CALLs and SMS..
select "WCDMA" for 3G mobile data... but you will lose 'LTE'
better off you have Firmware Backups..
hope it helps.
sorry im not that good in english

How to root a HTC hero (t-mobile version) on android 2.1 official

Hello , I need a step by step guide , as jargon free as possible to root a HTC Hero(Tmobile version) on android 2.1 . I have tried the old 2009 Unlockr.com guide without results as well as numerous others.
Currently on 3 UK network.
Me too.
I can second the above!
here is how i rooted my hero on tmobile uk
first go into settings then click on the option applictions then click on on unknown source
go here on your http://theunlockr.com/down/UniversalAndroot-1.6.2-beta5.apk or here if that link does not work http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FJA3L8YZ you can do this on your phone
if you downloads on the computer plug your phone to your usb and mount it and then move the file you download to your phone
if you done it on your phone just go into downloads and click the file you just download and it should install
if you have done it a pc and have moved it onto your sdcard you need to download a file manager just go into the android market and type in astro file manager then find your you move the to and click on it then click on open app manager and then click install
after it finishes installing open the app and press root and your root
next go into the android market and type in rom manager install the free version
when it is opened press the flash clockworkmod recovery and then after it finishes flashing the recovery image press reboot into recovery then it will say are you sure you want to root into clockworkmod recovery click ok
now to are root and ready to install custom roms
hope this helps
I have same problem but the biggest one i cant download Rom manger on the phone dont know what to do
erm.... how would you install RomManager on an unrooted device?
I got the german T-Mobile G2 Touch [HTC Hero] with had stock android 2.1 with sense,
I needed to create a Goldcard (Tutorials out there) and then was able to use universal AndROOT to root the device... there is a tutorial in this forum, will post the link if i find it again, named something like "Complete Noobie guide to ROOT and install a custom ROM" or something, this in combination with the use of Goldcardtool (Program, to find on google ) worked like a charm
greets, Summoner
PS: Thx for pressing the "Thanks" button if i was able to help you
edit: Found Link!
look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645253
if that doesn't work out of the box, search for "HTC Hero T mobile Goldcard tool" or something like this on Google, there are tutorials and the program does the big work for you, you just need to put your sd card in pc, run the program, register to the opening website, receive the goldcard image via email, flash it to your sd card (program does for you), put card back in and continue wih the tutorial above

Verizon 4g LTE Tab - Netflix Working

First, nothing in this post is my own work. I just wanted to compile the information for everyone else who is surely wanting to know if the 4g LTE tab can run Netflix.
Step 1 - Root:
1. Download the file from THIS THREAD POST to your Tab10.1 (anywhere should work, I went with the /sdcard folder on my tab)
2. Power Down Tab
3. Power On and when you see the Samsung Text Hold Power + Volume UP (From This Post)
4. Select the Android+Box (Volume up to switch, then volume down to select)
5. Chose "apply update from /sdcard" and select the .zip file you downloaded in step 1 (When finished, the tab will automatically reboot).
6. Verify Root - You should see SuperUser in your apps when your tab finishes rebooting.
Step 2 - Asus Transformer Patch
1. Download the Transformer Patch from THIS THREAD
2. Install Patch - I chose to use Root Explorer to manually move the libnvomx.so file into my /system/lib folder, but you could also reboot into recovery and apply the .zip file that way instead (steps 2-5 above).
3. Reboot - If you manually move the .so file you will need to reboot, using the recovery it should reboot for you when finished.
4. Watch Movies
If anyone has trouble with this Please Do Not Email Me
I am really not a pro at troubleshooting, I was just willing to take a shot at rooting and found out that it worked. Hopefully this will ease other people's minds about getting root and netflix on your Verizon Tab 10.1
Also it is worth mentioning that I did all of this without using ODIN or KIES or ADB Shell or any of those other scary things. I chose not to try to install Rom Manager of Flash Clockwork Recovery as I had heard they may cause troubles.
I noticed that you mentioned using an SD Card multiple times in this post, but the 4G LTE version doesn't support SD Cards (doesn't even have the slot).
Why the discrepancy?

He probably meant place it on the root of the drive of the tab. When you plug in your tab to your computer, you should be able to view your files there. Add the zip file to the root of that drive. Hope that makes sense.

True. I was torn with how to describe the location and decided to use SD Card to be in line with the "\sdcard" which is still in use in the file system for the tab
I guess I've been explaining the root / recovery process on the OG Droid for so long that I still toss references to "root of the sd card" and "install zip from sd".
I'll edit the original post for clarity.
Question (and thanks this is very helpful!). I'm going to do the same as you I think and stick with custom rom and no cwr. So if you need to unroot for warranty return or whatever, and we've only done the steps in this post, what do we have to do to unroot? Thanks!
This worked very well...it was almost too easy. Thank you for sharing the info.
Does it work on the wifi only model? P7510?

Not 100% sure CSGirl... in my experience, the person making the determination about warranty approvals would be the in-store rep. In that case you should be fine by just using root explorer and deleting the SuperUser app. The permissions would still be there I suppose, but the store guy wouldn't see the telltale app.
Someone else could probably give a better answer.
If you open up the .zip file for rooting and go into \meta-inf\com\google\android and open the updater-script file you can see everything that is getting changed, I guess you would just have to change that back.
Also, @wiibrewer, I have no idea
Well how about is there any reason it should not work on the wifi model?

I know that Droid-Life posted this file for the special edition wifi tab: Search "Galaxy Tab 10.1 Rooted" post from May 2011

4g LTE Recovery Mode
Good Morning: Thank you for your postings. I have a new Verizon Galaxy Tab 10.1 4g LTE. I am not able to get the device into recovery mode. Is there a procedure for rooting that can eliminate that step or is there an alternate way to get in to recovery mode? Any assistance will be appreciated.
I found that the volume up button is the one closest to the power button and not the actual volume button if that solves your problem

Same problem here.
I can boot to Download mode and use Odin3 but can't boot to recovery mode... I get a blank screen with slight edge glow. So the older way to root won't work either, since you can't get to Recovery mode to finish the job.
Any suggestions? Would a Factory data reset work.

If you did Rescue backdoor,
Then you must download the ISC from Condi’s page,
Put that file on your "External SD"
Then check if you have debugging on ( On your tab )
1. Connect your tab with your PC.
2. Open Condi's AiO Tool 2.7
3. Use Option 3
4. Use Option 1 and follow the steps.
5. The program will ask you something twice choose yes for both.
6. The program will put something on your pc in the folder from Condi. in '_signed' folder that file you have to copy to your external SD/
- Take card out insert in pc.
- Transfer that file.
- Don't forget to replace your SD card before you continue.
7. Run option 4 "Disable recovery signature" that’s in the "Custom rom and flashing Submenu"
8. Follow the instructions,
9. The device will reboot and you must restart it with pressing Volume up + Power and if the Sony mark appears release only the Power button.
10. When in recovery menu choose install from SD Card and choose "_hack_recovery"
11. Like its said in Condi's tool it will fail and that’s ok
12. Again install zip from SD and the screen will flash and restart Recovery
- Don't worry that’s normal
13. then again choose install from SD and choose "custom_signed_update.zip"
And relax, don’t forget waiting is gold, if you take out the SD card or remove the USB you will have a chance that you brick your device.
Guys buy Condi a beer for his great inventions.

This should disable updates and you should get to the main screen. Good luck

1. Can you still start your tab ?
2. You did that one after _Hack zip right? (This one must fail thats normal)
3. if everything still works proper try to clean your sd card ( external )
4. re-do the steps and post your result.

AIO is telling you that there is an update. Please ensure you have S.onyTablet.S [ALLinONE] v2.7.7z from this page.
Then follow instructions above. Good luck
Updated
Just read that you have tried different versions, please try this, quoted from Condi's AIO tool.
"To turn off auto update check - create empty file in 'files' directory named as '_offupdates' (without quotes '')"
This should disable updates and you should get to the main screen. Good luck

[Q] Newbie wants to root HUAWEI Ascend Y201

Hi.
Im really confused at the moment. I recently got a Android 2.3.6 phone, models the HUAWEI Ascend Y201. So far happy with it but there are a few things I want to do- and reading up on it has more Tbab confused me. Firstly I want to remove the bloatware it came with but it seems this can't be done without ‘root‘. I understand that this basically allows me more permissions with the system? Secondly I am wondering about these ROMs. What do they do? Lastly, the play store seems to like telling me there is no space left for the application, but it installing to a 4gb SD card? An application I saw called MarketFix claims to fix it but needs root.
I have tried z4root (this did nothing) and gingerbreak (ran for 7 hours).
Anyone?

Answer?
I am not responsible for any damage you may do to your phone by following this guide.
The files you will need, download them and extract them to a folder on your desktop:
View attachment 1790730
UnlockBootloader.zip
View attachment recovery.zip
- Now, get your phone and go to Settings > Developer Tools. Make sure USB debugging is enabled.
- Also disable Fastboot in Settings.
- Connect your phone to your computer via USB and let it install the drivers. Make sure they are installed correctly. Do not select "Turn on USB storage" on your phone.
Here Comes How To Root + Unlock Bootloader:
1. Go to the folder on your desktop where you extracted the files.
2. Right click on unlockbootloader.exe and select 'Run as administrator'.
3. Click "ROOT Your Phone", the program will work and then close on it's own.
4. In your phone, go to the apps drawer and there should be a new app called Superuser.
5. Now go to your PC, open the same program, but this time click "Unlock BOOTLOADER".
6. Let it finish, the program will close on it's own, and then power off your phone.
7. Unplug the phone from the PC and we are done.
Congrats you have unlocked your bootloader and have root :angel:
<- hit the thanks button if i helped!
Don't work for me :'(
I don't have superuser installed

MetroPCS & T-Mobile LG Leon STABLE Root (WORKS EVERY TIME 100%)

I am making this tutorial as I have had multiple versions of the LG LTE Leon and have used many firmware versions. I have created a stable method that has the least issues as I have had trouble with the latest firmware (MS34510f) disabling my root privileges. I have created a MEGA account specifically for all of the files necessary to complete this operation and have your device run smoothly. So, please follow my instructions exactly as stated and you should not have any issues. THIS PROCESS WILL REMOVE ALL DATA NOT SYNCED, DO READ BELOW NOTES IT IS VERY BENEFICIAL
Important Notes:
+This process will wipe all data that is not synced, it is important to ensure that no newer LG process are still on the device. Some might argue to leave data, to that I say good luck keeping your root and tethering without the device becoming suspiciously unstable.
+ I am not GUARANTEEING this will work on every model, but I have had an extremely high success rate with all Leon versions.
+ In this tutorial the process in which I remove Kingroot and replace it with SuperSu is for system stability. I find that most root functions I use seem to not work properly. (Wifi Tether Router and many others). So, I do recommend doing so.
+After the new OS is installed a MetroPCS splash screen will appear even if you do have T-Mobile. DO NOT BE ALARMED this firmware will not limit any functionality you had before, it will even help with tethering functionality.
Tutorial:
Let's Begin.
1. Download the link posted to obtain required files for this tutorial
Link: https://mega.nz/#F!PM4CQRqb!92kgIOnD0ZBY-8HVbtTwGQ
2. Open up LGFlashTool2014.exe
Begin by copying settings posted below, then click "normal flash"
3. Next click the "START" button
4. At this time, I recommend you verify all sync settings are to your liking and that all personal info needed is backed up
a. You have the option to throw all of your personal documents/pictures onto your SD card and removing it appropriately
(Go to: Settings - Storage - [scroll down to] Unmount SD card)
b. Next, navigate to Settings -Backup & reset [leave options default; both checked off] - Factory data reset - reset phone
c. Once reset it will most likely reboot, wipe, and then back to a OS. Now, you will Power Off entirely (make sure it is not plugged in so it will not go to charging mode)
d. Here is where we will hold down the Volume Up button with the phone unplugged from your PC. Then you must plug the USB into your phone.
e. A black screen with white text should post onto your screen, here we will continue to step 6
note: If this screen does not appear please power off and retry step d.
6. Next, follow the posted settings. Make sure to click the "Clear phone Software update Registry" button Then click "OK"
7. A new screen will arrive, and should begin the firmware download process. At this time it will take a few minute to load and should reboot to a fresh OS.
8. With the new OS in place, you can either follow the setup tutorial now or skip through for a later setup.
note: you can now insert your SD card
9. In the tools folder of the folder you downloaded copy the "mrw" folder to the Main Storage folder of your phone
10. Now copy the Kingroot apk to your downloads folder located on the main storage.
11. Go to Settings - About Phone - Software Info
At this time click the build number box a few times until it says you are a developer
12. Hit back until you are at the Setting menu, click on Developer options and check off "Stay Awake" and "Enable OEM Unlock" as well as "USB Debugging"
13. You may now run Kingroot, if it does not install root the first time it should flawlessly install the next.
14. After root is obtained, please go to your home screen and click the "Google Search" widget. Press Update Google Services and let it run. After that has been updated search for terminal emulator and install.
note: If the Play Store is acting fishy and force closing while typing in the search bar do not fret it will be fixed after reboot in further instruction
as an allternative use the jackpal.androidterm-1.0.70-71-minAPI4.apk provided in the "tools" folder
15. Open terminal and in a new window type: Su
16. Allow root usage and at this time type: sh /storage/emulated/0/mrw/root.sh
17. It will run with a few failed messages do not worry it should open SuperSu momentarily
18. Once SuperSu opens up allow it to update binaries using the "NORMAL" option but DO NOT REBOOT YET
19. At this time either download TWRP Manager from the play store or alternatively use the com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager-7.5.1.3-82-minAPI11.apk provided in the tools folder
20. Install and open TWRP Manager. Once opened click on device name and scroll until you see "LG Leon LTE (c50)"
a. Click on Recovery Version to Install and select "twrp-2.8.7.0-c50.img"
b. next click "Install Recovery" and if prompted for verification of install path and for install version select "YES" & "NORMAL"
21. After the TWRP setup is complete it may prompt you to reboot, if not click the arrow in the top left of the TWRP Manager screen and scroll down to "Reboot" and select "Reboot device"
22. After Reboot click TWRP Manager and verify a SuperSu prompt comes up if it hasn't already before the boot
At this point the device should be running smoothly. From here I prefer to do the following steps.
My Personal Setup after new install:
+Personally I like to install use a Root Uninstaller (I use 3C Toolbox Pro) and Uninstall and Backup all MetroPCS BloatWare including the Metro Browser.
+I also access the Hidden Menu by using the Dialer and Dial "2776348*#*"
- I scroll down to ApnUnlock and click to "Unlock APN"
- Then I navigate to Settings -Tethering & networks - Mobile Networks (I check off roaming data) - Access point names
--I then select the top APN and edit APN Type to: default,supl,mms,dun
---I click save from the top right selection, then turn on and off airplane mode
+If you are and Xposed user download "xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip","xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm.zip", and "XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk" from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
-install the Xposed Installer, then Go to TWRP Manager, use reboot to recovery and from there click install and navigate to the "xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip" and install and reboot, it will reboot with a installing screen before your home screen, takes 5 minutes.
+I also use this AMAZING app "Wifi Tether Router", it is the only tethering app I use that works consistently (if you have an unlimited data plan). I get 30mbps up and down, playing many multiplayer games off my PC and PS4 averaging ping as low as 30 ! Setting I use for our device are in a post I created here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/leon/help/unlimited-metropcs-t-mobile-tether-t3290180

Apologies for the late response, I never received a notification of your posting. I would not recommend that as I believe the H340 has a different "radio" driver or cellular chip, If I'm not mistaken the H340 isn't even LTE, the H345 is. In that case it may be possible. One thing I suggest doing before wasting your time in using any other ROM is googling H345 vs Ms345, typically the phonemore.com results will provide you with an abundance of hardware specs and let you know if they're different! Just be weary of the newest MS34510f_00.KDZ firmware I believe it has an active unroot process I've had some stability issues. I am using MS34510D_00.KDZ for months and have had no issues whatsoever! Again, I'm sorry I got back to you so late, let me know how everything goes!

Same here (firmware update) usb not detected when using the S/W update tool
After going all the way through this guide with a T-Mobile Leon, I do indeed have a Metro PCS ROM and root, which is great! Unfortunately, it also refuses to acknowledge my T-Mobile SIM. In fairness, I did not even insert a SIM for the first time (just got the phone) until the end of the process, but it shows as carrier locked which is significantly less than useful. I'll flash back to a TMO rom and put the SIM in to double check, but it's quite a bummer. Great job on the guide otherwise, though! It definitely did what it says on the tin; I have root and apart from the SIM lock which may be my fault somehow it works great.
Hey bud those links are no longer valid know where i can get them?
