Hi all, i'm on a G900V vers 4.4.2, rooted, running Safestrap on Stock rom. I have a nandroid backup. I'd like to try and update to Lollipop and somehow restore my apps/data from Titanium backup. Is this possible? And if so can anyone point me to a good set of directions on what I would need to get this going?
Thanks in advance!

I'm not doing the work for you, no. Search the forum, it's right there in plain sight.
Ok then don't respond.

As I said I did. What's your purpose here anyway? Are you the almighty thread watcher? As I said before and will say again don't respond if your only advice is to keep looking.

Hi,
I have seen this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152233
It's a very interesting.
Basicaly i have a HTC Desire HD on Orange. Orange put like 10 - 15 stupid apps on there that cant be deleted. If i followed the down grading guide could i then un-install the orange apps pre-loaded on the stock rom and then re-upgrade to 2.3.3?
I'm quite nervous to risk my phone when i am not 100% sure of what i am doing....
If there is another way to uninstall locked apps on 2.37 without downgrading that would be great.
Any advice is appreciated.
Kind Regards
Chris
Thanks ....

??? I'm asking for help and you respond with thanks? lol im confused.... Did i post in the wrong section or something?
I'm sorry,
i wrong session.
I rooted DHD any shiprom. You don't need to downgrade 1.32 . I will post GUIDE later...
You don't need to downgrade. What I would do (not sure if it's the easiest way but probably is) is root, then install Titanium Backup. You can uninstall and freeze (similar to uninstall) system apps with TB.
EDIT: Actually, you might have to downgrade if you want to root, since you're on 2.37. Not sure, though, haven't used official ROM's for a while.

Hello all,
Have been reading this forum for a long time and it has helped me out many times in the past and for that I am grateful to you all. I am relatively new to the s4 but I have a galaxy tab and am comfortable with flashing and using command line utilities and all the goodies that come along with them. (Toooo comfortable lol).
My dilemma is as follows. I stupidly moved some "bloat" apps from system to user and forgot before I was forced to do a factory restore. Now certain items such as optical reader and other apps are gone. I have looked for the carrier specific rom from fido but can not find it. Could someone please point me in the proper direction?
Also what's the most stable and functional rom that can dual boot for the sgh-i337m.?
Thanks in advance.

Go to sammobile.com. You have to register but it's free. They'll have the stock firmware specific to your device and carrier.

Thanks for the help. Exactly what i was looking for. How do I thank you on the forum?
Also which rom is the most stable with working components(wifi,camera,etc), can dual boot and that has a kernel that supports force ac charge.

There is a thanks button. IDK the answer to your other question. I don't have an s4.
I apologize if this has come up before but i can't seem to find a definitive thread on rooting NI2 at xda-developers. I search in this forum for "NI2 root" and all the topics were not specifically related to rooting from stock NI2.
I've browsed and searched a bit and was going to root my NE9 this evening, however today i accidentally pressed the wrong button (upgrade now, instead of upgrade later) and upgraded to NI2. I found this method for rooting NI2 here
http://techbeasts.com/2014/09/25/ho...-on-android-4-4-4-kit-kat-official-firmware/#
Is this method valid? I have never rooted this device before and have all my apps and layout the way i like it. Can i root the NI2 without flashing/resetting the device?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much, i guess i'm confused as to why the search function would not find that thread when i specifically searched for two of the terms in the title of the thread? I typed "root" and "NI2" . Just so i'm clear that is an I "eye" not an l "ell" right?

Why no in fact i haven't, but before yesterday i hadn't heard of N"eye"2 either, or towleroot, or safestrap. I'm what you might call a noob with this particular piece of hardware. So did you have any idea why my search string did not turn up the thread mentioned (or anything else constructive) or were you just trying to get your post count up?

Thank you for that post, i am rooted and did not have to erase any data. Have a great day!
So I understand that there is a new update out and I'm wanting to upgrade to it. I'm currently rooted and have xposed installed. I was wondering if I will keep root and not have to wipe my device.
If I have to re-root it, could someone please show me the steps to take? I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!
Here you go....

Yes, to upgrade to the newest firmware you will lose root and more then likely have to fully wipe your phone, just make sure you back everything up. The root method is the same as when you 1st rooted your phone, but I will leave you a link to the root thread. Always try to search for the answer's before asking question's. Hope this helps you out buddy Click here

Hey bud I hope I caught you before you took the update. I would read the stock rom thread for that update. Something about not updating the bootloader . I have not taken the update as of yet so I dont know about it but here is the thread for it. You might want to ask in there before updating.
So I got stuck in a bootloop and got reading about kdz files and well, I didn't do my home work. I loaded the H910pr. Which has some nice features but I am now stuck. I have no service, lost my way back to my twrp and haven't been able to find a way to root. Any help would be great! The old lady about to kill me, lol.
P.S. Not having a phone isn't so bad
need someone with a 910 to copy their modem for you.

Well, yeah about that... lol it is gone and i haven't found a way to root h910pr yet. Thanks for being so active around here. If you stumble across any thing, keep me in mind. Do you think maybe unloocking the phone would help?
