[Q][HARD TROUBLE] Lost data, can't root and 4.4.2 kitkat cable connection issues - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm a newbie of this gorgeous forum, i've heard of it many times and so, i decided definitely to create an account.
I Have a Nexus 4, 4.4.2 kitkat with the Build KOT49H and about 2 weeks ago i've accidentally deleted, in explorer, 2,95gb mic records files of the program easyvoice recording. They were very important to me, so i stopped using the phone to avoid the overwrite of the hidden/deleted files.
I tried with two methods:
1) Hexamob File Recovery PRO [NEEDS ROOT] , i haven't got root never on my nexus, so the bootloader isn't unlocked too. I can't unlock it because it will wipe all the memory involving the data folders making a total format like the hard reset does. You could say: Backup it?
It isn't so easy, the files that i've deleted are hidden by the memory in the phone (this is why i'm trying to recover it...), unless i'll download or overwrite it putting other files on it, they will certanly be unrecoverable. I stopped using my telephone in order to find a solution to my problem.
So, i've forgot this way to recover my files, and the mean question i ask to you is: Can i root my device in order to use Hexamob without the wipe process?
2) Recuva, Dr Fone Wondershare for Android, Data Recovery, Restoration... ecc ecc
I even tryied to use Windows Softwares such as the mentioned above. But... "luckily" for me, how you should know, many Nexus upgraded with 4.4.2 reports bugs with cable connection with PCs.
Example: when i try to copy all the pictures to windows it give me strange errors ("The library, drive, or media pool is empty.") and i have to copy one to one files per time.
So all the softwares doesn't find the "Nexus 4 MASS STORAGE". I've tried reinstalling automatically and manually drivers many times. Nothing work.
I've only three possibilities to return to use my nexus. Or i wait a google update in order to solve the cable connection bugs, or i wait in april a Dr Fone Wondershare for Android Software Update release compatible with 4.4.2, or i ask to you, my only concrete salvation.
Thanks a lot to all. Really.

Hate to tell you this, but you're sol. You're unlocked, unrooted, and you can't mount the device as a drive letter on the pc. I'd check with the app that's going to be updated in April, but I'm guessing it's not going to work anyway. Let them know you have a nexus 4, I don't think it can do usb mass storage

Subject:Android 4.4.2 for Nexus 4
I have a Nexus 4 with Android 4.4.2 and recently i've deleted very important files and i tryed to use Wondershare for Android to recover it.
It can't well notice my phone because after the second step, it begins by analyzing and at 20% say "The model isn't recognised" and it stop working by restarting the phone.
Please, can you release a version of this software compatible with NEXUS 4 with Android 4.4.2 ?
It is very important for me, i can't use it unless you do it..
Thanks, really thanks, you could save me!

How you've read they didn't mentioned about NEXUS 4 with 4.4.2, but i think the understood. I'm going to write another email in order to point out "specifying" that i'm using NEXUS 4.
Are you sure, i haven't no other solutions...? :crying:
Thanks..

I don't think so if you're not rooted. I'm trying out Dr fone for my own education, but I'm rooted and it seems to be working. It'll take awhile and I might try it unrooted too. I'll let you know what I find out.

If you're rooted it works better than I expected it to. But as you know, if you're not rooted it doesn't work. It's asking for usb mass storage which asfaik the nexus 4 doesn't support. I don't think even the update will be able to get around that limitation sorry

Sorry but, if i try DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582
Will it work?
Or can you suggest me what i should wait to solve my problem? Maybe DooMLoRD or other developer will release a toolik that will be able to root without unlock the 4.4.2 in 2-3 moths maybe, isn't it possible?
so i'll take my file....
Other solutions? There aren't?
Thanks..

Any root method involves unlocking the bootloader first. As you know that wipes your device. If there were away to get around that it would have already been done

Error 404 on the google doc link
I posted a question a few days ago asking how to unroot and revert back to stock. I have a physical phone problem with my device and need warranty repairs.
If I follow your post instr then I will end up with the JB OTA stock image, unrooted with a locked bootloader? If so it's the answer I've been looking for!
Does this work on all versions of nexus s?

It would get your phone to stock 4.1,1 official google image not rooted... as for the bootloader it locks it. But if not you could just use the "fastboot oem lock" comand

A script can accomplish anything that a user can accomplish on their own by doing the same commands. If there is a hardware or software error on the device that is preventing it from working the manual way then the script won't work either.

Hi ... yes I understand what you're saying. My phone's problem is possibly the micro USB port, seems to be working poorly. Phone charges but my PC and laptop suddenly don't recognise the device when connected by cable. Bear in mind I did drop my phone in muddy grass (ports got mud-filled) three days earlier, causing latent damage only now seen.
SO b4 I take it for warranty repair need to unroot etc but all methods required a working USB cable ... this method seems to be the answer I need. You agree?
You still need usb for this... you have to have usb debugging on....copy the folder to your computer and click run. It will do the rest with a few keys

Cheers man, i'll keep this bookmarked for when i sell my phone. Dont wanna be giving out a rooted/non-wiped device

So...I have not fully understood the OP's method. I foolishly assumed this procedure didn't require USB connection to my PC (which does not work anymore because PC no longer recognises my device via cable after some likely water damage).
Any idea how I can revert back to stock JB or ICS with a locked bootloader unrooted etc WITHOUT connecting to my PC via cable?? I really need to get this fixed under warranty.
Thanks in advance.
it says "waiting for device" and stops there...why??what can i do??
Learn how to do it the manual way and stop with these IMHO stupid damn toolkits.
Not directed at you or anybody but if you're not capable of installing drivers and unlocking with fastboot etc you have no business to actually have root access/unlocked bootloader etc.
any one can provide me mirrror for both cannot download from 4shared

[Q] Nexus 7 jro03s root?

Hi I just got my nexus 7 this week and I'm super excited about it.
One problem i am on build number jro03s and dont know how to root this build number because Wugfresh his rootkit does not support this build.
I have searched the web and xda and the only thing I could find was something about doing a system update, only my nexus says I am up to date.
I am from the Netherlands please help me
Thank you.
Just do it in fast boot if you're worried
Sent from my Nexus 7
Thanks but I am scared i would brick my device or something, i like the one click methods more. nobody knows how i can use the toolkit?
Toolkits are more likely to brick your device than you... don't be lazy and Google how to do it manually.
Sent From My N7 via White Tapatalk
I use the "superboot" rooting kernel thingy, you just one-time boot it via "fastboot boot", works fine on the 4.1.1 (JRO03S) build as well.
I don't have a direct link at hand, but it's here, somewhere.

Haha i think i am, i own a rooted htc decire only i rooted that one also with a one click method so i just wanna sure that i'm doing the right thing, maybe i just have to wait till the rootkit has the jro03s option?

Yeah, that's the one
Used it several times by now and always worked like a charm.
However, don't forget about the "bootloader bug", for "fastboot boot ...." to properly work, do a "fastboot reboot-bootloader" first.
Can someone with the JRO03S firmware confirm that the bootloader is still version 3.34? Just reboot into the bootloader and the version # will be displayed on-screen.
JRo03s works with Wugfresh rootkit
@oldblue910 - yes, the JRO03S firmware is still version 3.34.
harmw - This thread came at an opportune time as I just picked up my Nexus 7 yesterday. You can use the Wugfresh rootkit (http://www.wugfresh.com/dev/nexus-root-toolkit/) just be sure to select NAKASI Android ***- Any Build (Under the Nexus 7 option) when choosing your model type and android version... when you first run the root kit. It works. I was clued in to this by reading a response from wugfresh himself here.
Note that it didn't work on my Windows 7/Ultimate/64 bit machine but did work on a spare Windows XP/32-bit machine. But this probably has more to do with conflicting usb drivers over anything else. Just keep at it! It was pretty painless if you follow the instructions to a t.

Re: Cloud-based Android Flash Tools
So you are having people flash their phones over the internet? What if the net disconnects? I hope the service is free ....and is this service even necessary. Flashing roms sometimes ends up in problems and you have to flash again, isn't it better to just use Odin and have the roms on a pc?

just looked at the site, looking at the screenshot, it just looks like a pc app that downloads firmware from the clouds?

Why not have a try? ^&^

Add Instruction-Webpages to avoiding mis-operation.
Can't get it.
Would be nice to know what your tool/service is capable to.
I flashed a wrong ROM, so I still can get to the download but not into recovery mode.
I download the USB driver and your software........and then ????
I don't have currently a proper PC/laptop to try, only a company laptop which doesn't allow me to play with.
More details would be highly appreciated to bring my S3 back to life when I'm back home.

Unbrick failed
As mentioned before I couldn't install 2nas software on my company laptop, but in the meanwhile I borrowed one and tried the unbrick function.
Everything worked well till I started the installation after the download, so it failed straight away at the flashing of the boot.img, see attached screenshots.
Initial rom on my S3 was I9300XXLEF (Hong Kong) and I flashed Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I9300 Stock Firmware Collection I9300XXEMA2 after that it didn’t re-boot because of wrong ROM, if I try to get into recovery it shows the “Firmware upgrade encountered issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again” screen..

Guy just asked how it helped you, meaning how di you applied it, and what issue have you solved.
But, as I see, reading with understanding is beyond your abilities, instead, you are very keen to abuse someone.
Off topic question: are you abusing all peoples when you're unable to understand their question(e.g. your nanny is in bathroom)?
Sad to say, but I can see a lot of problems when your parents will send you to nursery...

This is what...the 3rd or 4th person this has happened to? It's a shame it really is and accidents happen. I hope people take more precaution in the future. :/

[Unmodified] Pre-rooted firmware for SM-G361F

Hi everyone,
Today I am posting this thread because of some idiots who are now sharing pre-rooted firmwares for SM-G361F that are full of bloats.
I am sick of that, this is why I upload the archive of the first pre-rooted firmware I got that was at least clean.
You can download it here: https://mega.nz/#!oqpRhZJZ!B18uTiB3TH-QfChoqjgWCNmaPjqInPZbFyI4u9-T8s4
Note: This firmware is ONLY for Samsung Galaxy Core Prime SM-G361F devices with AOG1 build.
Of course I don't own the firmware and I didn't root it, I just keep the right to upload it.

Although I have no use for it, I did test it out and...
...I bricked my device.
Nah, I'm just pulling your leg! I tested her out and she is perfectly functional. Much better than that, what was her name? Andro-Woman? Or was it Andro-Man?
She seems like a woman to me.
Much appreciated and thanks alot, Hank Cyclone, which is your new nickname.

Glad to hear that worked fine for you (actually there were no reason for this to not work...).
BTW why she? Is this your new girlfriend now?

Pre rooted
Hey,can you find SM-G361F pre rooted version for this device?
BaseBand G361FXXU1AQA1
Build number G361FXXU1AQD1
I can't find it anywhere
I love what you're doing. All other pre-rooted ROMS are full of trash. Could you make it for G361FXXU1APA3?
Hum... OK guys thanks for the love but I have to remember you something.
I am not a developer yet and truly not a ROM unbloater: I didn't "disinfect" the firmware, I just reuploaded it (well after a fast check, I found I've already prevented about that, just read the thread please...)
So no dudes I can't do that, sorry. I COULD eventually do that, removing bloats and extract system image to make a flashable shouldn't be as complicated, but I do not have time.
Sorry to disappoint you.
Hey Atronid, you rock! I have the AOL1 but intend to give it a try cause I already rooted it but it's full of bloast. Do you know if I can flash another pre-rooted firmware considering I did this already? could this be harmul? -brickful? )-
:laugh:

I don't think doing this will brick your device, but careful. Ensure the usal requirements are here (OEM unlock, USB debug just in case...) and you made a backup, also in case something goes wrong.
But if you're rooted you got plenty tools that can remove bloats from your device, but I hope you're not easily scared because once removed system may spam that the bloat you just uninstalled has stopped. You can get rid of that by just rebooting your phone.
So you don't need to reflash any firmware if you just want to clean your phone up.
Yes, you're right. The problem was that the apps I tried to remove other apps weren't the right ones, but now that's sorted thankfully On the other hand, as I couldn't find an Android 6 ROM for my phone (not even a sorry recovery.... ) in the end I set my mobile to install new apps on the sd card by default. Actually it works similarly to the app Link to SD, so a part of it is on the SD card and the rest (like the data it generates) in the device storage, despite all the tutorials sell this method as "Installation directly on your SD card". You need a computer and official Android development tools (SDK). In case it's of any interest for anyone I'll include the tutorial I followed, but it turns out I'm not allowed to post links yet, so the title of the article was Cómo instalar aplicaciones DIRECTAMENTE en la tarjeta SD from androidjefe website. In English, How to: Force Android to automatically install apps to SD card from softonic website
I hope it helps

Hi guys, can I use this rom to install on core prime g361f with baseband FXXU1AOH1? I tried once with TWRP but failed.

Read first post. I don't think it will work if you have a build other than AOG1.
And you should not use TWRP to flash like this. Use Odin and Download mode instead.
Will this rooted firmware work with my SM-G361F phone? Need advice...
Hi there,
Will this rooted version work with my phone?
I'm new here and need some help and advice re Rooting this Samsung phone SM-G361F - I'M NO TECHIE but have ability to following instructions and make connections etc. My phone details are below.
Baseband G361FXXU1ASC1
Build LMY48B.G361FXXU1AQD1
Patch level is 2017-4-01
Security software version ASKS 1.2_161011
I did once try rooting a Samsung tablet using Odin and it all worked OK, but that was a while ago.
How important is it to get the identical build or baseband? Anything else I need to check?
I was trying initially trying to change the phone's MAC address, as I was experimenting with the phone, however I could not use an App to do this as it stated phone that the phone needs Rooting first for App to work. Also tried Terminal Emulator app but it kept failing to work as I was probably, unable to input the text commands required correctly.
I hope someone can please help and advise me on this.
M
Kind regards
