[Q] Avatar Rom 4.4 update root lost - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yeah, as the thread title suggests, updated to Avatar's latest release and lost root. Anyone else suffer this? Did you fix it? Tell me how! Phone's stuck with this rom for now and runs HOT when using any app or even just charging, big disappointment. Gotta figure how to get rid when not rooted.

Do u have a super user app installed??? Try reinstalling the app again..!
if it didn work,
Try to flash SuperSU from recovery.. u get superSU here

Thanks for the reply, but it turns out that root was somehow 'broken', but not lost entirely, by the 4.4 update.
After sacrificing a goat (joke), I managed to boot into CWM and flash Arion, I had to wipe/factory reset for it to work though (a month of Clash of Clans gone!). Attempting to re-install 4.4 gave a status 7 error from CWM and i had to wipe/factory reset again and drop back to Arion.
Gone over to CM10.1 now, seems the safest option!

Hi
Had the same problem when I installed cronos gingerbread with jumping screens and keyboard buttons not working , same thing happened when flashed other roms
It just unrooted by unstall the new official rom from the htc website.. updated it with the 2.1 ota and was good to go no more screen problems.
also try pressing down the screen a bit on the edges that helped as well
I have ADB installed so unrooting was a breeze
Have install Elelinux's gingerbread and is super smooth now

"also try pressing down the screen a bit on the edges that helped as well" if it works, that means its a hardwer fault. i downloaded an untouched rom, with radio, flashed it, and i play with radiant, and another games, ,and facebook for two hour and no problem...
otherwise... Super one click works with hero? i have offical rom, and offical radio. i only have to unroot the device, and they dont realise it at the service.
edit: another interesting thing: after the touchscreen problem the touchscreen is stoped working, i restart the phone, and after when it starts the phone was felt my fingers from 3-4 centimeters! iam stunned! now the touchscreen is working correct with the original rom/radio
Solved

[Q] The mysterious wifi issue

I've been ripping my hair out the last couple days trying to figure this out.
In the process of flashing a ROM and kernel I did a number of things:
-Carrier unlock (I feel like this is the culprit)
-Unlocked the bootloader
-Flashed Wet Dream (2.3.6 build)
-Installed webtop
-Attempted to root, unsuccessfully (let me know when the 2.3.6 root is available, haha)
After all this, everything was working fine--including wifi. But somewhere along the lines, maybe 15 minutes after I complete all these steps, out of the blue my wifi won't connect. It just says "obtaining IP address" and never connects.
So I got pissed and went on a wiping/reflashing spree. Got everything reset. The wifi was working great again. Then randomly, it just stopped working again.
Question:
Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?!
I'm dying here. Just as a side note in case you need this information, I think I'm going to flash to the 2.3.4 Wet Dream so I can root my device. Also, I don't mind going back to stock. If that's what fixes, it then I'll be more than happy to go stock. I plan on running webtop2sd as well.
Thanks in advance.

Benjat, thanks for the reply.
My battery settings were set to "Nighttime saver". I set it to "Performance mode".
I set my wifi sleep policy to Never.
Still have the same problem.
My understanding was that WD was already rooted, but Busybox wasn't installing so I ran Root Check Basic from the Market and it said my device did not have root access

Reboot and still no dice.
Ahhhh! So frustrating!
I was mid webtop2sd install and busybox is required for one of the steps to work. I'm actually not sure what it does.

nvm.. maybe do full wipe again..
what ver of WD u using? with what addon? im using WD 1.4.3 full
I've already done a cache/date wipes to no avail.
I'm using 1.4.4 lite. I'm thinking of flashing the 2.3.4 based WD though (is that 1.4.3?).
I could flash something else too, I guess. I really need webtop (with xfce mod) and I heard Wet Dream works well with it.
If this really is a software problem and it is the ROM's fault, then does anyone have a webtop compatible ROM recommendation?

i cant tell if its problem with rom or what.. 1.4.3 is 2.3.6 base. and yes webtop work well with it.
here's normaly what i do..
Boot CWM Recovery
Wipe data/factory
wipe cache
wipe dalvik
flash rom
reboot to fastboot and do fastboot-w & then fastboot reboot.
let it boot for 1st time (until stable/full load) i left it around 10 mins
then reboot back to CMW to flash addon. usually i flash 1 then boot.. continues untill flash all.. maybe a bit fussy step.. but i prefer all loaded before flashing another
*i never tried webtop2sd yet.. still dont buy bigger mem card coz funding for lapdock
** maybe can try this one to make it clean wipe.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421522&highlight=fastboot+-w
Yeah I realized too late that everything cost me way more than I had originally intended to spend. SD cards have come down in price but still pretty pricey for a 32 GB card.
And thank you for the link. I'll try it out tomorrow and report back. It's 1:00 AM here in Seattle!
Hey Mankey,
Have you tested different Wifi networks to ensure that the issue is not with the phone or the ROM at all?
Also, check if someone else on Wet Dream thread had WiFi issues, if this happened with someone else, then they should have fix for sure!
Usually I do what bejnat mentioned and usually works.
Also, about the root, try to follow a root process again. It happened with me before, then I had to install a .zip file through Recovery mode to have root access again.
Hope this helps!
wouldn't just flashing the radio or a newer radio maybe fix his issue??
Yeah it doesn't work with other networks either. And as for root I don't think there's a direct way to root 2.3.6 yet.
Sk8trix, I think I'll try that after I flash back to stock 2.3.4. I've tried just about everything but the radio. Kernels don't fix it.
I'll post an update in a couple days. I really want to get this fixed.
I had the same problem with my dark side when I 1st got it and to fix it I flashed another ROM ,loaded it then flashed back ,cleaned delvik cache and flashed gapps then rebooted and 1st boot fixed my problem was using 2.3.6 with webtop2sd+nebtop app hope this helps you

HTC EVO 4g LTE - Google Apps crashing after root - Help please

I've been struggling with this for about a week and I am not able to figure this one out. I hope someone here can give me a hand.
I've unlocked my phone using HTCDEV and rooted using TWRP 2.4.3 gaining root and recovery access. All seemed to work well but every GOOGLE app crashes now on start up. I can't go to the market as it crashes "Unfortunately Google play store has stopped". It does this with all Gapps.
I've flashed the GAPPS through recovery since I can't access Play.Google. and it made no difference. I can't log in to Google accounts as soon as try it gives me "google account manager has stopped".
I've tried to RUU back to rom 3.16. but RUU fails to update the phone although the restoral screen shows the scrolling dots indicating it is updating, but it goes on forever. the bootloader shows "TAMPERED" "Unlocked" and this came after using FASTBOOT OEM LOCK command in an attempt to reflash the unit. I have tried to flash to other roms like CM10 but it only gets to the point of the spinning logo and just sits there and spins, etc. Other roms get stuck as well in the first boot up logo of the rom or give a black screen. I can use TWRP to restore the backup each time so the phone works seemingly ok except for anything with Gapps.
I assumed I can't not flash JB roms without S-off and I tried to use Dirty Racun to obtain S-off but I get errors with each step so gave up on that for now. I've resolved myself to sticking with the stock rooted rom but I can't do much without Google Voice which is my text and phone account.
Can anyone shed some light on this for me? I've searched the forums here and elsewhere for dozens of hours and have not been able to find a solution for this or any help that might help me "stumble" into a solution. I don't mind flashing another rom if I could get one to take hold just so I can get this unit working.
I think the TWRP recovery or a old verion of Superuser might have caused this glitch. I did the rooting and recovery using this guide here htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-4g-lte-root/how-to-root-htc-evo-4g-lte-unlock-bootloadertwrp-recovery and the provided TWRP would not accept any input so I replaced it with 2.4.3.0 and recovery then recovery seemed to work and backup/restore but still can't flash any roms successfully. I didn't notice Superuser v0.87 here as being old (my goof) and didn't get a more recent version until after the flashing was done. LIke I said, where I'm left at now is everything seems to work but anything having to do with Gapps just crashes on start.
Any help please?
Couple things you could do if you wanted a new rom. First go to the q&a section there is a sticky titled don't panic it will let you know to fast boot the bootimg for being son or find a rom that has son kernel installer for sense mean bean does

I had this issue today when I flashed viper 4g ROM before doing my s off. I tried every approach and what I ended up doing is a factory reset, cache wipe, D. cache wipe, Android secure wipe, sd ext. wipe (I always do the wipe 3x in a row on each) then I reinstalled my viper rom (comes with the latest google apps) and off I go. Solved all my google sign in related issues. You could also try to locate a downloadable version of goomanager which will automatically check for the latest version of gapps that is compatible with your rom and download it. Doesn't need to have a google playstore link to work either.

Thicklizard, Thanks, I'll check this out now. Are you saying the rom Mean Bean is a ROM and might take hold flashing it with my s-on situation? Is MeanBean an xda developers rom? I've always had good luck with just about everything from XDA, so would love to try it. My hope is a new rom would solve whatever "hell" my phone is stuck in. Thanks! I'll see if I can find it.

dominicsdad, I'm going to check out what was suggested about Mean Bean but I did try several JP type GB apps, etc. None of them would restore the function. THis has been so frustrating. I'm a guy that can folllow the posts and the guides I read, etc., but not having the core understanding or depth shows it's ugly face for a non-connected guy like me. WHy did you do an SD wipe? That's where I keep my backups which have been the only thing that has let me get back from a few botched rom attempts. I will try the goo manager if I can find a flashable version since I'm locked out otherwise with any kind of app install. I was surprised to see the EVO LTE didn't have a file manager as I was going to try and just install google voice which would at least allow me to use the phone.
THanks!

Update, I installed Mean Bean and solved my problem. It gave me a scare thinking it would backfire with the 2 duplicate rom installs it requires but I had to put some faith in something working and it worked. Thank you for getting me on the right track!!!!!! Bill

[Q] Screen Flickering after software update.

My device is a local re-branded and enhanced Xolo a500s/it's like a karbon a5 a think. After successfully updated my device via OTA and after my device rebooted. My screen started to flicker randomly. My phone is not rooted and im still using the official stock rom. I found a temporarily solution by doing a Factory Reset, the flickering would be gone but it will come back after my phone screen goes off and on. Anyway to fix this?
I suspect that the new lockscreen bloatware system app that comes with the update causes this, but hey I only suspect it and i'm new to the android community. I can't disable it(googled already, and the only way to freeze/remove it is to root.) I can't root my device for something like a hunch. I'm waiting for a software update that would fix my device's touchscreen collide bug.
Appreciate all of your thoughts.
Try to start your phone in Safe Mode or try to start in Recovery (if your phone has available) and do a Factory Reset

Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it. I was able to disable the bloatware new systapp lock the came with it and it didn't solve the problem. I will try your method. Again thank you very much. I will check in later to post the result, hopefully this fixes it all
*edit
I successfully managed to boot in safe mode, the flickering has stopped but it return right after the screen goes back from sleep. Then I do a factory reset then after that the phone starts up and the result is still the same.
I will try the recovery mode though.
*edit
okay, i've managed to enter recovery menu. the one where you use the volume buttons to move. Is it really safe to select Wipe Data/Factory Reset there? Is that what you're prompting me to do in your post?

The results are still the same... your method do work yes. The flickering is gone after rebooting but as soon as you know press the power button and screen goes off then press the power button again and the screen turns on again from standby, the flickering returns.
Before doing some OTA updates my device is like v7 or v8 and now it's v9.1
and I didn't have any screen flickering problems before updating to v9.1 so I can safely assure that it's not in the hardware. It really just happened right after updating my device.
Another question, will installing a custom rom fix this software bug? But I really don't want to install those yet at the moment.
Any, Thank you very much. I really really really really appreciate it all man. I'm really at loss now. This is my first android phone that's why.

So the only is custom rom/original stock rom before update(which is impossible because I haven't backed up one before updating)
is the only solution eh.
The reason that I held back from installing a custom rom is because I'm waiting for the touchscreen bug fix for my device iva OTA. Will I still able to get it after installing a custom rom?
Again many thanks. Is there a way to give you a thanks on every posts?

If there is a way to restore back to your stock version or find a way to get back to stock version then yes .
If you had a Sony Device then you could restore it with SEUS.Now with a Xolo I really dont know.Ask to the specific device forum

What ROM do you have on the phone? if it's the DU then I've only seen the SU lag when I first flash and open the settings, other than that it works OK, if you are planing to flash the ROM again then the link you provided is not the latest and has the bug that the camera doesn't work, I know because I flashed it before noticing that it wasn't the latest version and the camera doesn't work (logcat reads something like the "there is no such device" for the camera) if you have the latest ROM installed then don't flash this one and try and re-install Superuser from the Market. I've been looking everywhere and it seems that the Dirty Unicorns ROMS for this phone are gone except the one you found. If you already flashed the ROM you linked and it still doesn't "work" then you need to do a clean install by wiping your System and Data Partitions before flashing the ROM and try again.

If you have Dirty Unicorns 10.6 with the working camera, can you share a nandriod backup of the system partition? I would like to try and flash it to my phone and see if I can fix the root issue and let you know if it worked and at the same time get my phone back on the latest version.

If you have Dirty Unicorns 10.6 with the working camera, can you share a nandriod backup of the system partition? I would like to try and flash it to my phone and see if I can fix the root issue and let you know if it worked and at the same time get my phone back on the latest version.

I think i did that too unlock the boot loader when i first got the phone. and going in the recovery does say its unlocked. So im not sure if its wise too try it again but idk.
I just checked the version it says i have official 10.1 with the android version being 6.0.1 so its not the newest... But i see if i can get a backup of it if you still want that? Have too free up some space first. That's the ony thing i hate about this phone is the space it has... lol Still a great performing phone and good looking tho.

My camera just doesn't work with 10.1. Acording to the logcat it has an error stating "no such device"
Hmm yea my camera always worked...
Also i just got root working. I tried kingroot and it made it up too 70 something and than said root failed than everything got laggy and frozen after that.. So i hard shut down and booted it up and rooted apps requests for root which is king root and they work So it seems like root is back working even tho it said failed lol...
But man i wish there was more updates like too 7.0 or 8... This phone can easy support it... The hardware is still good and even up with some of the new phones today that can get newer firmware's... Heck the ones i see that can do 7 ony has 1gb of ram.... Maybe people just dont like it being limited too 16gb.. Which i do understand that.
Also how much space do you have left on your phone? On mine i have 10.61gb used out of 11.44gbs..... apps ony take 2.38gbs images 59mbs and other is 117mbs. were did the other go?
I have always had this issue.

Regarding Space, usually the rest is taken up by the system files.

I asked the OP of the ROM and he mentioned to me that the site took down the files for the DNA and that he didn't keep any copies. So it will be quite hard unless someone that installed the latest version kept a copy somewhere and shares it. I had the latest copy a few months ago, if I knew the were going to take it down I wold have made a copy on my Mega folder, but I didn't :crying:
