Thx for this tool, not just for the sake of it, but for the sake of us newbies being able to learn some basics from reading a batch file as well.

I have the Samsung drivers installed and USB debugging on, however, the bat file stays on "Waiting for device". Normally I would get a notification granting my comp privileges for the debugging but no dice.

I get the same unless i right click and run as admin but when i hit 2 (medium) then go i get the following?
UPDATE: Nevermind the reason adb commands were not running was due to the custom kernel i was using. switched kernels and the debloater worked fine.

If you plan on using this with the latest update GPG2, edit the .bat file and remove the last line for TmoWfcPrefs, this is needed to change wifi calling preferences.

OK, so I am dependent upon WiFI calling at work, and I did this, but maybe it's because I have an 11 month old or I don't know what but I must not have saved the BAT file correctly. anyway, I broke my WiFi calling.
- EDIT: it works if I turn it on with the quick icon - but if I go to settings, and click more networks, then click wifi calling it just crashes settings every time. any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to port the app to other ROMS like MIUI and such?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
No. It relies on HTC framework and integrated tightly with T-mo bloat.
can it be ported to Desire Roms you think?
Cloudscout on the CM forums was able to port to CM ROM, so I guess it's possible with other ROMs as well.
This is his original post:
Here's what you need to do:
BEFORE YOU INSTALL CYANOGEN MOD you must back up the Genius Button apks and libraries. To do this, you must have the Android SDK as it will require ADB*. If you don't know how to set that up, you'll have to do some studying.
1) Enable debug mode on your phone.
2) Connect the phone to your computer via USB.
3) From the platform-tools directory inside the Android SDK directory, run this command "adb pull /system/lib/libvsuite.so"
4) Run "adb pull /system/lib/libvsuite_sharedlib.so"
5) Run "adb pull /system/app/vsuite.apk"
6) Run "adb pull /system/app/VSuiteApp.apk"
You will now have copies of the two library files and the two apk files necessary for Genius Button and Dragon Dictation.
Now, go ahead and follow the process described in the Wiki to install CM on your phone. Once that is finished, follow these steps:
1) Enable debug mode on your phone.
2) Connect the phone to your computer via USB.
3) From the platform-tools directory inside the Android SDK directory, run this command "adb remount"
4) Run "adb push libvsuite.so /system/lib/libvsuite.so"
5) Run "adb push libvsuite_sharedlib.so /system/lib/libvsuite_sharedlib.so"
6) Run "adb push vsuite.apk /system/app/vsuite.apk"
7) Run "adb push VSuiteApp.apk /system/app/VSuiteApp.apk"
8) Run "adb remount"
9) On your phone, launch ROM Manger and select "Fix Permissions"
10) Once it finishes running the permissions fix, reboot your phone.
The first time you trigger voice dialing via bluetooth, you will get an option screen that asks you if you want to complete the action with Genius Button or Voice Dialer. Check the box that says to always use this selection and then choose Genius Button. Also note, the first time you try to compose a text message, you will be presented with the license agreement for Dragon Dictation. You will need to tap the screen to accept the license. After that, it should work normally.

Genius APK Please
Can someone do a adb pull and provide me with the genius button apk?
Thanks in advance..
The genius button is not one apk, it is 2 apps and 2 libs. In order to get it running you need to push both .apk files to /system/app and both .so files to /system/lib.
If you want to do it manually, unzip the zip file I created and take the files from there.

You need root to do this... I probly should have mentioned that. Sorry. Getting root is easy now, there are a could threads on how to root with very easy step by step instructions. After you gain root, purchase root explorer from PlayStore (yes, you have to spend a couple $ but its worth it) and use that app to navigate and delete the file. You will likely use the app again, unless you switch to an iPhone. So it's worth the little bit of money.
I see autorun.iso, I assume that's what you're referring?

Check your usb debugging settings. you might need to either check that box or unchecked it. I can't help much more than that if you're using Windows, I'm a mac user. But that sounds like all you would need to do. Hope it helps.
Verizon installer
Okay here is a weird one (or maybe not). Started getting this when I first connected the S4 to PC via USB. Now when I connect my S3 I am getting the same popup. S3 is rooted never had this message.
I am thinking this is somehow embedded into the new Samsung USB drivers. When the phone is plugged in, some form of check reveals a VZW phone which triggers the installer????
Did anyone figure this out? I was able to stop the Verizon Installer Pop up by renaming the autorun.iso, but there is still a 30 second delay before I get access the the phones internal and external memory.

I think I figured it out. I'm still on original MDK build. I don't know if that changes anything.
1. autorun.iso removed (may not be necessary, but mine is gone)
2. enable hidden menus (step 2) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303905
3. enter dialer code *#0808#
4. select MTP+ADB
5. reboot (may not be necessary)
My phone originally had nothing selected. I don't know how to go back to that unselected mode. I can't guarantee anything. It's working for me. My phone now connects in MTP mode within a second or two of connection (unless the phone is in the middle of a reboot, then that has to complete first.)

Removing the file should work, if it's giving you a delay then my guess is either your computer or the device is trying to find the file. Back on my s3 and dna rom I had only removed the file and vzw installer didn't show up

Removing the file does not solve the problem, it still connects as installer for a while before connecting as media device. It's not a huge problem, just annoying! I'm curious if everyone has this problem, or if it's just a few of us??

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

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?
**does not yet work for 7.1.1**
Using a PC to root seems like moving backwards compaired to a 'one click' apk. but we're already at the PC to flash eng_boot, plus this new method is so much faster...so here we go
Features:
SuperSU 2.82
Init.d
Wifi fix
Flashlight fix
Issues:
For the wifi fix I just copied an edited J320a build.prop
So J320AZ users will see J320A in about device, and will have to reassign notification sounds. (Hope to fix it in the future)
Needed Files:
Odin
Root_J320A.zip
Procedure:
1. Unzip both files.
2. Run Odin click the 'AP' button.
3. Navigate to Root_J320A/bin and select sm-j320a_Engroot_601PJ2.tar and press "Start" (make sure NOT to check re-partition)
4. After it completes sucessfully, leave the phone hooked to the pc... and then wait, wait a good 2 or 3 minutes after its booted.
5. Once 2 or 3 minutes has gone by you can navigate to the Root_J320A folder.
6. There you'll see root.bat, double click that let it do its thing.
6a. If at any time during the script you see "adb out of date. killing..." hit the x to close the window and restart the script.
*This may work on J320AG models but make sure you check oem unlock from dev settings first... and let us know how it goes
Enjoy

Excellent! This works perfectly! Thank you so much for posting this.
J320A PC9 worked perfectly!
March security patch
Hi man, this method support the march security patch, or are still in january security patch
I tested on AQD2 so it'll work on AQC1 too.
I assume it'll work for all 6.0 updates we get.

I suggest you put 'root' in the tile, otherwise google cannot find it.
I googled 'j320a root', google only links to ashyx's post which doesn't... well maybe only mine phone.
I am new to this root bit.
Possibly I have done something wrong. I read your instructions carefully and quit didn't understand where the unzipped files should go. Do any of these have to be placed in the phone's directory?
Failed on my AT&T SM-J320A
I wonder if it has anything to do with the new update pushed out recently
@JeffF73
Run Odin and Click ap.
Navigate to the directory where you unzipped root_j320a.zip.
In that folder you'll see a bin folder, inside that is sm-j320a_Engroot_601PJ2.tar, which needs flashed to the phone.
Once that's complete, let it boot and wait.
Then run root.bat

Hello DamienMc Thank you for your reply and help. I figured it out. I had to put my phone in "Download Mode" by holding down Volume Down, Home Button and Power button while booting. Then I was able to use Odin without failing. This solved all my problems thank you
Is it safe to flash this after doing this?

Yes, that has selinux set to permissive as well, although there's no real difference. The build.prop differences are noticable tho...I plan on doing an update to this, just have to figure out how to tell if it's A or AZ from adb

Yes, it works for QC1. However, you may need to replace build.prop in /bin from QC1 with WiFi fix before root.
I did notice that after root, the contents of /Android/data folders in both internal storage and external sd card are hidden from PC. Before root, both are visible from PC. Any thoughts about what cause the changes?
Will this work on July security patch?

Thanks, I just needed to install this to use adb to uninstall an update I did to System UI because it would continuously crash.

Probably the eng_boot we use, it breaks the flashlight and wifi passwords too... it does work on j320a July update, so I assume it'll work on j320az update too

Reflash CSC as well, that'll wipe your device but fix your problem.
Are you sure you waited long enough after the phone booted before rooting?
If at any time during the script you see it say "adb server out of date. Killing..." something is wrong. You can x the command prompt and do root.bat again.

This was the first time i ever tried to root my phone and i followed the instructions located here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j3-2016/how-to/root-samsung-sm-j320a-galaxy-express-t3573628
Well my wifi wouldnt save any passwords , flashlight was broken and my ATT J320A would always want to boot in to recovery mode. I thought i was screwed!!!! Then i seen one link in the thread to this thread where Kingroot was not needed.
I opened Odin and gave a shot and then ran Root.bat file, and the device rebooted wifi and flashlight were fixed and best of all my J3 was now rooted!!!!!
Still working on getting rid of that annoying pop up but all is good, thanks so much for this root and fix from the other thread.

@james2ya If you are talking about the pop that either says something in the order of "Unathorized activities where made" go to the play store, download and install SecurityLogAgent Fix, Open it up and click "Disable Securitylogagent" then restart phone when it asks. This should help get rid of that popup.
works great for me! now i just need a custom rom. is it possible to install trwp on j320a?
Hi All !
Some of us do know the application a long time but others don't. Therefore this small GUIDE.
Removing system apps without root/unlocked can be done in a few ways like :
manually : with an ADB list and described HERE huge thnx @SirTAVARES
automatic : if you don't like to do it manually, you can use the ADB/Fastboot Tool which will do the job for you.
The XiaomiADBFastbootTools isn't explained in depth afaik and can do a lot more but I'll focus on the removal of those system apps.
HOW TO :
NOTE : do try some apps (not all at once) and see if the phone boots again - if you would have a problem you can always restore the onces you removed or perform a factory reset to restore all apps (as they are not really gone )
0. enable developer options to enable USB debugging ( go to settings/about phone/tap MIUI version 7 times to enable dev. options -> then go to settings/additional settings/ dev. options/enable USB debugging )
1. download the latest version HERE
2. run the .jar application
3. you'll get this screen
As you can see, the tool will start by default in ADB. You'll see a bunch of apps you could de-install under the Uninstaller tab.
If you're sure which apps you want to de-install just check the ones you want and tab UNINSTALL
google where is the nearest gas station
TIP : try one first like Google Chrome f.e. and see if it works
EXAMPLE : Removal of Google Chrome :
Once removed you can check if the app is gone of your home screen apps or under settings/installed apps/tap the 3-dot sign to show all apps/ search for ''chrome'' and the app should be removed.
4. if you want the removed app(s) back, just tap the Reinstaller and check the ones you want to re-install. Easy right !
Once re-installed your Chrome app will appear again on your home screen/app list
5. TIP : before removing, check the app name under settings/installed apps/show all apps/tap on an app and tap the Ⓘ to get the app info
Other functions :
1. As you probably noticed besides running in ADB, this tool can easily boot into Fastboot, Recovery, System or EDL.
When booting into Fastboot you can see some other functions you can apply. Be aware of the risks applying things under fastboot !
2. Very useful option is the possibility to push, pull ,... apps/folders with FILE EXPLORER. Just tap OPEN and you can easily perform some actions afterwards.
(ignore the KB sizes - once pulled you'll get the right folder/apks )

This is what you have to install to be able to run .jar files. OP just assumed everyone has java installed (I would too to be honest) and didn't mention it.
I have installed the updated java and am trying to open the windows 10 boot tool and it refuses to open. Yes I did upzip it but the program will not open. Any help please?

What version you installed? I recommend that you install 6.5.1:
https://github.com/Saki-EU/XiaomiADBFastbootTools/releases/tag/6.5.1
That is what I downloaded...Win version. I unzipped and then tried to open but it does not work.

You don't need unzipped. Download the version .JAR an run it. I made this way

Lets go from begining:
- First thing that I did, I uninstalled all versions of Java;
- Second, (I made this way, you can jump this step) - reboot my laptop;
- Third, I installed the latest version (in this moment is version 8, update 221) - I installed both 32 bits (x86) and 64 bits (x64);
- Fourth, run the tool (just download .JAR version) and clicked with right botton for open with Java.
When I right click nothing asks to open it in java
If you have java installed, then just a double click on the XiaomiADBFastbootTools-6.5.1.jar is enough.
Opens in 7z
