hello,help root fujistu F02G version 5.0.2 , thank so much.
i don't think you can root this phone (kingoroot,king root,one click root etc...) tried them all with no success on (Kitkat 4.4.4)
It has stock recovery witch is very limited, and generally Japanese phones from Ntt docomo are very hard to root the newer ones at least.
Some one more experienced here might prove me wrong thou.

Hello. I have just received a new G2 (aka Hero) on T-mobile UK.
I am planning on doing this, please can you tell me if this would work:
1.Installing a recovery image
2.Booting into recovery and making a Nandroid backup
3.Installing a generic HTC Rom which has been packed into update.zip NB.Rom is a stock rom and therefore not rooted
As I understand after flashing I would lose rooting and would need to root again if I need to. However, I don't need to so am not too bothered.
I am hoping that this would remove T-Mobile branding, but mainly make the phone quicker as it is running the latest ROM. Would this technique work?
I would also like to know wether my sim-lock status would be affected?
Also if Donut/Android 1.6 is released OTA by HTC would my phone update OTA?
Finally, does that mean once I have flashed it, I will not be able to access the recovery partition thing which includes Nandroid etc.?
Please answer my questions and comment if you have any reservations/concerns about this. All comments are much appreciated.
bump-please help
Bit previous with the bump after such a sort time??
To answer your questions:
First of all, as long as your G2 still has the original Hero firmware, you are probably ok with your plan. If you've got the latest firmware, you'll probably have to use the gold card technique.
If you install a generic ROM, you'll lose most the T-Mobile branding, but to be honest there was very little anyway. The T-Mobile splash screen when you switch on will remain though.
SIM-lock has nothing to do with your ROM - it was locked before it will still be locked after you update the ROM, and vice versa.
Finally, on the subject of an OTA, who knows???!!! I really wouldn't worry about it.
Regards,
Dave
Thanks Dave. Does anyone else have anything to say?
new user, similar question.
got myself a T-mobile G2 yesterday, thinking that it's the same thing as HTC Hero. ok, it's only a software difference but now i'm unable to flash it.
software version is 2.73.116.61 which is T-mobile version of course, and comparing version numbers to recent ones it looks really outdated. is it? on T-mobile UK support pages it's even older one. tried to download official version but HTC says there is no support for my device, based on serial number. also tried to flash with newest downloaded from here but no luck, got error 131
so, what can I do? root or goldcard?
thanx
You will need to goldcard to downgrade your ROM, before you'll be able to "upgrade" it to a custom ROM.
Regards,
Dave

Debranding Optimus Hero (ORANGE)
Hi everyone.
I am an Android rookie, but i am trying to learn more and more each day.
I bought recently a HTC Hero from optimus operator (Portugal) - Orange - and it came with 1.5 version of the OS. There is original 2.1 version but not for my operator.
I already made an goldcard for it, removed simlock, and rooted but now i would like to know step by step what to do?
what rom (original and generic) should i install to have 2.1?
How to do it, with goldcard inside cellphone?
It is possible to go back?
I have read in Q&A that some orange phones, whem the debranding is done, loose the network due to some radio network imcompabilities... how can i know if that is or is not my case?
I would be greatful for all the help someone could give me.
Many thanks

Look at the guides in the android development section of how to root. If the phone is running a very old firmware the likelyhood is that you won't need to downgrade and therefore may not need a goldcard. But basically, you need to root and install a recovery image then you can flash a rom from the hero development section.

Does anybody have the Canada Bell version of the Alpha? Can you root it?
Also, does anybody know if CanadaGSM.ca is a legitimate website? I see they sell unlocked version of the Bell Alpha.

Hi, I've got a Galaxy Alpha (SM-G850W) from Virgin Mobile. Unfortunately there wasn't any information if my phone would be bricked or not after rooting since the baseband version on chainfire's website is Videotron.
My Phone :
SM-G850W
sltecan
msm8974
KTU84P.G850WVLU1ANI4 (Virgin Mobile Baseband Version)
4.4.4
Description on Chainfire's Web Site:
SM-G850W
sltecan
msm8974
KTU84P.G850WVLU1ANJ4 (Videotron baseband version)
4.4.4
So I had to try and...
I was able to successfully root with Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root!
So yes it's probably rootable
And keep in mind i'm not responsable if you brick your phone.
Big thanks and thumbs-up to Chainfire!

Are you in the U.S.? Any idea where I could get a virgin mobile galaxy alpha?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G850A
No, I'm french canadian.
I'd try swappa or ebay and search for devices from canada.
But i'd recommend you get one with an octacore (from europe i think).
Or you wait for the time being since there's not much developpement for this device cause sammie announced the end of the alpha.

i had one which i sold i a good price can`t root till i had and don`t know about the legitimacy of mention website. but did successfully unlocked mine from phoneunlockingshop.ca
I was tempted to order from Canada GSM even though in the USA because the Canada Bell Unlocked Phones they sell appear to have exact same Bands for Tmobile/Metro PCS in USA.
However I found a Alpha 850M which is an International Exynos with
7 LTE Bands and even has 1700 WCDMA Band ( not listed in the specs) in addition to the others that are specified.
This one definitely has a louder, fuller speaker than the AT&T Qualcomm and faster, so I assume better than
Bell Canada's Qualcomm Alpha.
The Alpha 850M is made for North,South America and the Carribean so should work well for you.
I am not sure Canada GSM is legit but if not we would have heard about it..right?
ALSO - not a Dev so you need to find out if 850M can be rooted etc.
Please how i root sm-g850w version g850wvluiani4

1) Accept the fact that you may void your warranty, brick your device and are doing this because you're brave
2) Locate SM-G850W file
3) Read instructions from start to finish
4) Read instructions AGAIN !!!
5) Go for it!

Good luck. It worked for my SM-G850W, KK 4.4.4 Canadian Bell :good:
I have not upgraded to Lollipop yet and know only what is stated here...
Worked well for the sm-g850w sltecan from Telus too. Now, there is absolutely nothing else. No recoveries, backups must be made the hard way (building your own flashable .tar file), no custom roms. That's not the ideal phone to customize. It's my ' corporate business ' phone. Rooted, but not customized.
I have a Google Nexus 5 to try anything. My Samsung tablet runs on an unofficial BlissPop rom, which is pretty cool.
It is easy to root, just be sure to use sltecan (snapdragon) and not slte (exynos) files. You' ll soft brick your phone, which is not ideal (been there, done that...)

I know older thread, but Just about to try this out. on my Telus Alpha, however, I'm currently on 5.0.2 (G850WVLU1BOD7) ...will this revert me back to a previous version, then if I update from that point will I loose root? I mainly want root, to get rid of these damn youtube ads lol.
EDIT - nevermind - worked no problems, no issues whatsoever. . If anyone has any ?? let me know
Now I can't seem to understand the whole process of installing xposed. Seems different than it used to be and reading things about deodexing etc etc. Anyone here had success?
