For what exactly?

You mean a rebuilt modem ???
Or just using a different modem ??
jje

possible: sure, someone just needs to do it
lot of work: no, even more work!
someone will eventually do it: no, what for?

You want someone to reverse engineer really complex low level firmware of a totally undocumented bit of hardware, where one bad flash could hardbrick the phone?
What for? And do you want to give someone the endless supply of phones you would need?

No, I was just wondering if anyone had looked into it. I ask this because I was curious as to how the exploit that found the network unlock codes worked.

Actually there's a good explanation of that in the unlock thread. So maybe check that out.

Agreed. Things are far more complex than they were in the early days. It would be a long road. Rooting is the easy part

I disagree. It took an act of Congress to get root and install a new ROM just 8 months ago. ****'s cake now.
Well I went through a little time being nervous too but I read and read and just did it. Never asked 1 question. Still rarely do. I'm just saying if this is how the journey is starting it's gonna be long.
What phone do u have?

So there aren't 2 different boards for these phones? 32a-32b?

Doesn't matter for achieving root. That doesn't come into play until your flashing recovery/ROM/kernel.

Ah I see. U think I would know that. Learn something new every day. I figured there would be different root procedures. Thanks for the info

Well it's mainly because most of the root procedures include flashing a new recovery/ROM. The idea of rooting in itself isn't device specific. It's simply adding the su binaries to the ROM.
I don't know what Hboot is and i don't know if i have 32a or 32b. I have like 250 mb of memory I think, I read somewhere that 32b has 192? I dunno.
My baseband is 62.50SJ.20.17u_2.22.28.25
Kernel 2.6.32.9-g93b855e
build number 3.56.531.1.cl300801 release keys
How do I know if i have the correct USB drivers installed?:
You NEED to put your phone on USB Debugging mode
You NEED to install make sure the Android drivers for your phone are installed
Make sure you DO NOT mount your SD card.
If you still can't get something to run, try doing it in recovery mode.
I know I can mount my sd card when I use usb, but does that mean the usb drivers are installed?
Do u have sdk installed on your PC?
Sent from my Dream/Sapphire using XDA Premium App
I have SDK installed on my pc, but I don't know how to use it.
Well I used that oneclick root and it worked. niiice, although when I go to emulator and type SU nothing happens, but when the program did the root test, it said it was rooted. so I don'tk now
I am not sure on even how to get into any mode after phone is shut off. I want to try installing some roms, but obviously I need radio and spl to install. I don't know how to do that with the MT3G
When u open terminal u get
$
When u type su u should get a new line with
#
Does this happen?
Read the stickies at the top of this general section. U will find all the info u can handle on fastboot,adb,sdk and so on

Yes i got SU I had to restart the phone to get it to engage.

[Q] Is there any way to flash in international 9505 rom into the ATT model?

I just ordered on att's website. Just wondering if you can flash in international/regional rom for the 9505 into the 337.

No...you'll brick your device.

Just wait, you will soon. Just like how all the US sgs3 had interchangeable roms with a few tweaks.
Wait for those tweaks.

You know this for a fact because ?
They have the same chipset, the only thing I wouldn't flash is the modem.

so can i download an 9505 official rom and be able to flash it to my phone?
Ask s developer, don't think e can answer for sure. The bootloader isn't even unlocked yet.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Nobody knows for sure at this point.
It would be nice if it turned out like my I9100M, where I flashed it with the I9100 ROM and then my phone was an I9100 from then on. They too had the exact same hardware.

Korean Root?

Has anyone successfully rooted the Korean G2 yet? The old version was rootable but i updated it when i got mine to the new 10k software and i havnt found a new root method.

We don't know the status of the bootloader yet. If it is locked then it won't. It should work if the bootloader is unlocked.

Is this a free software or request Money ?
If really makes Root , why don't you make a Thread in "Development section" ?
Could be useful for all of us :good:
Will this work for me I'm on software 10m?

This method works GREAT for my F320K
we have root boys and girls. thanks for the tip

No Pure Google?

Sorry for the silly question but I've been curious. Any particular reason that we haven't seen any AOSP/AOKP ROMs for our device yet? Is it lack of development or is there something a bit more technical that is preventing that from happening? I usually love to tinker and they offer quite a bit more options. Again, just curious....

.....Locked bootloader
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
cant run custom kernel on locked bootloader (retail version)
Yeah but didn't the Bionic also have a locked bootloader? We were still able to run AOKP through safe strap. Hopefully we can run AOKP the same way on the Note 3. Unless I'm wrong about the Bionic.

This is a complete guess but I'd say it wasn't a full aosp rom. Probably just a rom made to look and work like aokp on the regular kernel

I just want to make sure I understand this. There is currently a thread on T-Mobile Developer forum for CM10.2. While it's not working well now, once it's debugged it should work fine on our DEs, with the stock TM CM10.2 kernel?

correct. i believe you have to change just the apn or use global settings but it can be done no big deal at all. kernels run with no issues. im on tmobile kernel from imo with zero issues at all!
