I'm not new to flashing roms. I came from DNA just got the Max.
My question is does anyone have problems when flashing a rom to the sdcard in recovery. Most of the time I get protocol failure and I've never seen that before.
*from* sdcard? Which one (internal or external)? Which recovery?

Must be something wrong with your extSD. Mine is working just fine.

Just a question, when in recovery did you mount the ext SD?
I mount system.cache.data. or something to that nature. I don't even know what the ex sd is. Like I said j just got this device two days ago. Not a big deal after a few tries it will finally threw the Rom on my sdcard. I was just wanting to know what protocol failure was.

I still dont understand. You cant put a rom *to* your sd card in any recovery. You can make a backup to your sd but not flash a rom to one.

That is to 'push' a rom to your sd card NOT flash to your sd card as your OP said.

I'm trying to root/unlock BL. I on hboot 2.46 if that matters I don't know I'm wondering if there's a detailed video on how to root the MAX on Verizon. My home pc is Windows Vista. I DL rumrunner 1.11.605.4 that's my maxes base also so I figured that would be the right one to try when I click on soju then plug MAX into pc with debugging on I I type yes in the command window and nothing happens I keep having to type yes so I just gave up. I hope you will help me. Thank you for your time.

hey guys.
was looking to make a new splash screen and found this drawing on google of our dear Andy eating an apple. after some photoshopping here and there, I had a new splash screen that I'm really enjoying.
I thought you guys might like it too...so here you go. these are the .bmp files you need to use with the oneclickflash tool that's available here in the forums.

Ya I did the HTC unlock method since revolutionary isn't available to Mac users I'm unlocked was able to flash recovery and roms no haven't tried other splash screen and yes I made sure it was named that. It reads file but stops when it says parcing file and doesn't do n e thing else

Yeah i tried it, works fine. The version I tried wasn't scaled for the DNA screen but the regular CWR wasn't at that point either. Regular CWM is now scaled correctly, not sure about touch version.

No, it won't work. I'm not sure why people are saying that it will. Recovery "should" be write protected while booted to android.

I believe they mean while in recovery not in the os.
Edit. Just realized that I flash the recovery in CWM and it worked just fine. I rebooted and had touch. Not sure what the bickering is about.

I'm not sure if there is a misunderstanding here but I'm saying that you can install CWM, at least regular, while booted into the OS. My understanding was that recovery was write protected also, but it worked for me. I'm sorry if I sound like a ****, as this is not my intention.

I believe that recoveries, for the time being, need to be flashed with fastboot, at least until an update script is made/possible for the DNA. Just my understanding.

Yes we got the h update, but don't waste your time, nothing special about it. The u-boot still recognizes an unlocked device, so that's good.

20H that's what I meant by h, in my opinion it's not worth it. I was on it for a little while, not long enough to do any testing.

Yes, it will fail (if artas182x locked Bootloader cwm) you will need to remove it properly.
And you will get a boot loop with a custom recovery you will need to flash the stock the stock recovery first.

Yes, that is all that I do as well. I have had this phone since v10e and with every update I never did reflash any recovery but it's better to be safe than sorry. Also, don't forget to put all of the apps back that you may have deleted. And get rid of link2sd (unlink before you uninstall the program). And get rid of busybox. . .look it's just better if you flash a new ROM. Oh yeah and download and install voodoo rootkeeper then hit the save root button at the bottom before you do the OTA. Good luck everyone!

Well I have checked my version for my phone personally and it has changed from V20F to V20H but I still have not received the OTA. I'm not going to force it I'm going to see if they are testing and I actually just got lucky with being at the right place, right time type of thing.

Yeah, I'm pretty confused myself about it. I have seen some complaints about 20f with the random rebooting issue and whatnot but nothing big. From what Kuma said it's nothing big at all. He said he was on it for a bit but not long enough to test it. So I"m assuming its still 4.1.2 but can't confirm just yet. I don't want to flash the ROM just yet but if I get bored tonight then I just might do so. . .
Whatever it is, t-mobile has the optimus l9 now listed as having 4.2.

I believe T-Mobile made an error. They have had it posted for like at least a month on their website that the L9 has 4.2, and nobody has confirmed getting 4.2. At one point, the listing even said the T-Mobile L9 had NFC as well as 4.2.
It still says that actually. Checked it today.

Depends I have seen anywhere from 15 - 25 mins. As long as it's not hanging up anywhere let it run until it gives you an error or a success message. You could try moonshine because your on 4.1 and see how it goes.

I believe he's reffering to the one in the ROM.zip that you've flashed. Extract it from the ROM .zip - flash the ROM as normal - don't reboot, flash that boot .img THEN reboot

Sweet. Going to check this out shortly.
And then do my best to disable OTAs
I also rooted my NC4 kitkat using towel root method...

Anyone successfully install safestrap after using Towelroot? I tried 3.72. It states it installs successfully...but I can't boot into recovery. :/

try powering off then booting into download mode. then from download menu select cancel.
I don't know why this worked for me, but it did.

Do you still have root? I believe safe strap also needs busy box.

You're correct.
I myself just used towel root ..successfully.
Can someone explain why this is important we already have root. Other than making it easier to root without a custom kernel what have we gained? Sorry I want to be excited like everyone us. Please be kind

People that took the Official OTA , had lost root. So this huge for a number of people. [emoji106]

I was stuck on NC4 and had lost root. It's good to get it back so I can do things again like Tasker, Titanium Backup and Ad-away. Not show stoppers but definitely conveniences I had missed a lot.

And yes, I can confirm that Towelroot worked successfully for a Note 3 running stock NC4 firmware and ROM. Easiest root ever.

I can't believe how easy and fast it was. I lost root yesterday when I soft bricked my phone. That silly Chinese root crap had popped up a bunch of unreadable prompts and in haste I accepted the official NC4 ota when I went back to MJE.
Well worth the donation once I get to a computer. So freaking easy I did not need a computer.

Removing all the bull**** bloatware, customizing your phone both aesthetically and functionally, using stuff like Xposed, custom roms built for speed/lean-ness, etc
The list goes on.
so i was stupid and isstalled clockwork after doing towel since i thought out bootloader was unlocked and now i have the bring to verizion store thing. so im downloading the ota for odin and im going to flash it, my question is once i do it can i then install towel, busybox, then safestrap and be okay?

I could be wrong but according to Hash instructions if the rom doesn't have busy box it says to install busy box so if it's a stock rom you'd need to install busy box then safestrap.
