The perma-temp root is exactly that.... Temporary. As soon as you reboot your phone, any changes made to /system automatically revert back. That is how it will be until such time as you obtain permanent root / s-off, because of the write protection on the phone.

Oh wow i feel stupid.

Don't feel bad. Run the revolutionary root method and all is well. Then you can uninstall anything you want. Rooting your phone is kind of freaky but a lot of fun. I click go and observe from across the room so that I don't hit a wrong key or disconned the phone from the computer.

Hmm will i lose data on my phone?

The Revolutionary tool will simply replace your locked bootloader with an unlocked one and allow you to flash a custom recovery, leaving your data partition untouched. After you have custom recovery, you just flash the superuser zip for full root. Again, no changes to your data partition.

Is there anyway to disable the flash sound on the camera?

Anybody know?

Yes there is an apk file do to it. Let me see if I have it on here. Gimme a second.
Edit.
Found it. There you go. Just install that to SD card, then go into apps, and click on enforced silencer check it on, and you're good to go.
Thanks

Let me know if you have any issues. It's what I'm running on my phone.
Better yet hop on root explore and go down to system>build propt mount R/O and change the "0" at the end to "1" and save change and reboot. ro.media.capture.shuttertone=0
I forgot who came up with the tweak but not I.

I recommend this more than the custom apk. This method is built-in and in case for some reason you want the sound back, the option is just a checkmark away.
The apk is also just a check mark.

If you're rooted all you have to do is use Root Explorer and go into:
/system/media/audio/ui
Change the name of "CameraClick.ogg" to "CameraClick.bak"
You can do the same for the video record sound...simple.

Yes, but doing the build.prop mod allows the toggle to be done from within the camera app which makes it much easier to toggle, as opposed to having to switch to another app.
No need to install anything. The easiest solution is usually always the best.
Yes. I didn't know you could do it from the app. Though easiest isn't always best.

No problem.
I'm trying to delete the file and it keeps saying it's read only iv'e tried changing the permissions and also the r\w on top no dice, lol what am i doing wrong
I just use Root Explorer and go to System/Media/UI then rename the Camera_Click.ogg to Camera_Clik.ogg just changing a single letter works and you can always restore it if wanted.
(You have to be Rooted)

[Question] how to remove superuser

Just updated my phone and I forgot to remover root first. The phone works fine but superuser is still there and I can't uninstall it, I tried using the script but no joy. I don't use many root apps so its a bit pointless being there.
Thanks

Use Mattgroffs razr utility. It allows you to unroot. But there really is no point in removing it as it wont effect the phone. The only reason you would really need to have it gone is if you had to turn your phone in for a replacement.
Is mattgroffs utility different from doomlords? I wanted it gone just on the off chance something does go wrong, no point having it on my phone of it its rooted.
Thanks

Need help! Screen not working

I need a way to pull all data from my phone. the screen turns on but is completely unresponsive in the middle of the screen so I can't type half the letters. Anyway to pull data from recovery?
Have you tried creating a backup from cwm?
Its not rooted, completely stock
Guessing you tried auto rotate? When mine went bad, I turned it on, and rotated every direction as needed. Worked for me. Kind of a pain, but allowed me to get all of my info......
Ya I tried, doesn't rotate
That's terrible. Sorry to hear.
The only other way would be a lapdock. I did that as well.
Have u tried adb pull?

Mainly pictures And a few contacts. Pictures weren't saving on SD card unfortunately. No I'm not familiar with Linux
Try install airdroid and see whether u can backup from there.

If XP try android commander
Load it up and you will see all partitions for your phone. Tick sdcard or mnt/emmc and pull to pc
But may not work with you being stock and unrooted

on my mums atrix the touch screen was unreponsive like mentioned but this went away after a while.... it could be a software issue
Do a restore from proper .SBF with rsdlite, this will reset back to factory ROM. If your problem was software, this will fix.
Consider unlock and use CMW...

I just changed it to Galaxy Nexus by using Root Explorer and it worked correctly.
Be sure you are on the latest kernel, as it is the only one that allows writing to /system while booted into android.

I can confirm that editing build prop does work and stick on reboot. Was able to make photosphere stop working and start working again as a test.
You may have to reboot one more time. After installing it I updated superuser and it had a read/write error. After rebooting it is fine.
And once again my phone hates any kernel that's out beside stock. I wonder what's the problem that my phone hasn't been able to run without freezing and rebooting

This is good news ! now all we need is some cyanogenmod and aokp and well be set
It's this s-off or a workaround?

According to the developer, neither. IDK, it seems like we can pretty much do anything now.
I posted a "stock" version. For those who cannot seem to run anything else without driving me nuts, um, I mean without problems. :laugh:

Most unlock methods do not keep us from writing to /system, this fixes that for us.

T-mobile P769 bloatware disable script

I know some people are running into problem trying to delete T-mobile bloatware. It looks like there is another way if you are rooted.
There is a built in script file to disable all the T-mobile crap on the phone. It must have been put in there by the LG people when they were testing the phone.
/system/etc/disable_tmus_packages.sh
So, if you are rooted, you can use a script manager (SManager) to run the script at boot up to disable all the bloatware without having to either freeze or delete the actual apk.
This script will also take out the CarrierQ stuff at the same time.
seems works. Thank you.
nice find...
Has anyone noticed performance improvements after doing this?
how to re-enable?
i'm trying to disable the sound notification for the stock email app and in the email app settings, the sound selection is disabled.
how can i enable the bloatware? i think there might be an app or setting in there that would let me change the sound setting for the stock email app.
i tried using SManager and de-selected the SU and Boot checkboxes and restarted but to no avail.
I use titanium backup to defrost the bloatware.

LOL!
titanium backup cannot defrost the bloatware.!!
Great found , everything was already in the phone.
can you explain in detail how to do this?
Can someone explain in detail how to do this plz. I have smanager downloaded
While in smanager, go to /etc and find the disable_tmus_packages.sh. touch it and open as "script/executable" highlight the Su (android with bones) and touch run. Now all the bloatware will be frozen. If you want something to be enabled for example the com.tmobile.pr.mytmobile (which tells you how much messages, minutes, and data you used). Defrost it with titanium backup or and app that freezes/defrost apps. Lol, or just edit the disable_tmus_packages.sh and change disable to enable then run.

Might be a dumb question, but does this have to be run at every boot, or does it take care of everyone when run just once?

Edit : My bad. The correct answer is it only has to run once. The disable command will freeze the package.
It does not need to be run at each boot. All it does is save you the time of manually disabling an apk.
