[Help!] Update System with Terminal Emulator with Error "no space left on device" - Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers

[Help!] Update System with Terminal Emulator with Error "no space left on device"
I follow the following instruction to update my Meizu Pro5 with success for several times, but i got an error message "no space left on device" this time. Is there any way to solve this?
1. Enable root
Enable root by tapping on Settings-> Accounts-> My Flyme-> Personal settings (first option) -> System privileges and set it to open - accept disclaimer and confirm.
2. Download and successfully install Busybox (from Google Play or see .apk below)
3. Download and install a Terminal Emulator (from Google Play or see apk below)
4. Download the correct and desired international (i) ROM/firmware (update.zip) for your device
5. Download and use the update.zip (firmware) converter that creates the required system-i.img
Click here to download converter first
Copy system.new.dat and system.transfer.list (from the update.zip) to the folder “in” (see converter folder)
Then start the converting process by starting System-conVERTER.cmd and pressing option 1 [enter]
If successfully converted you can find the system-i.img in the ‘‘out’’ folder.
6. Copy the converted system-img from ‘‘out’’ to the internal memory of your Meizu device
7. Go to Settings-> Display-> Sleep and set it to at least 10 minutes
8. Start the Terminal Emulator and run (type) the super user command
su
A permission popup will come; give permission by tapping allow (always allow).
9. Now run (type) the command for installing the system-img.
dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/XXXXXXX/by-name/system
Replace XXXXXXX with the correct partition system for your device
MX4 Pro = 15540000.dwmmc0
M2 note = mtk-msdc.0
MX4 = mtk-msdc.0 (OR mmcblk0p6)
MX5 = mtk-msdc.0 (OR mmcblk0p18)
Pro 5 = 15570000.ufs
Example for MX5 : dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system
Note: Pro5 might require: dd if=/storage/emulated/0/system.img instead of /sdcard/
10. The installation should start after the ‘‘dd if’’ command, but please note…
…it may seem that the copying/process did NOT start because you didn’t notice it, but it DID start.
do NOT type a new command or whatsoever, just…
…be patient and give your device 5-10 minutes to process.
11. When the process is done you’ll see a # at the very end
Your device should be unresponsive by now - this is normal
12. Now just shutdown your phone (hold power button) and reboot it
13. Once successfully booted your device should be running an I-rom
Once in Flyme again it is wise - but not necessary - to completely reset your phone. Go to settings->about phone->memory->factory data reset-> check both boxes and click start cleaning (this could take 5-10minutes). Always backup your stuff if necessary.

Kindle fire root for 10.2.6

THANKS TO JORDAN011 FOR SOME OF THIS INFO. i tried the origional post but got confused with some of the bits esspeciaolly as i didnt find mention of installing Java which was a big stumbling block so i did more tial and error and research and Rooted my Kindle - heres what i did with links: hope it helps (sorry pics didnt come out and niether did the highlighted instructions but short of time and have to popout -- follow it word for word and it will definately work
1. Turn your Kindle Fire on and swipe down the top bar and tap on More+
2. Goto device and turn on the “allow installation of applications” button (ontop of the reset factory defaults)
3. Go back and then goto Security and turn on the “enable ADB” button
4. On your PC Figure out if you have 32 bit or 64 bit windows running and download the correct versions of java and android sdk below:
5. Download and install Java se7u11 the JDK file. From http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html. This is needed for the android SDK to work (otherwise ADB wont work). You may have to register and reboot
6. Download android SDK then extract the folder to your desktop and install the (green icon). download from https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
7. If you have installed java and the android sdk – you should get the following screen:
8. If SDK manager asks you to install any missing packages (button on bottom right corner) then install them/accept and install
9. Download then extract to desktop and install the Kindle fire ADB Drivers (don’t worry if there’s an error message – Just install Anyway as its an unsigned file. Download from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1893838
10. Open up device manager ie start/control panel/hardware and sound/devices and printers/device manager
11. Turn on your kindle and plug it into the PC
12. Your kindle should be recognised in device manager as Andriod composite adb interface.
13. Download Bin4rysroot from here http://uploaded.net/file/0fpyh5c5
14. download Quemu root from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1893838
15. Extract both the above files to your C Drive into two new folders and rename the folders Qemu (for quemuroot contents) and Root (forbin4ryroot contents)
16. THE ROOTING PART NOW!!
17. On the Pc goto Start and type in CMD then right click on the CMD icon at the top of the window and select “Run as Administrator” and hit yes if the User Account Control window pops up and a dos window will appear
18. Copy and past (or type this into the window) cd ..\..\Root then hit enter
19. Copy and past (or type this into the window) runme.bat then hit enter
20. When the screen shows an interface, type 1 then hit enter, A lot of errors will show up but that's fine
21. When your kindle shows a "Restore" screen hit restore my data your kindle will restore and reboot (may take some time be patient!)
22. After it finishes out you should get a command line on the pc saying “press any key to continue” when you do that you will see C:|\Root>
23. Copy and past (or type this into the window) cd ..\Qemu then hit enter
24. Copy and past (or type this into the window) rootqemu.bat then hit enter
25. When you get another interface type 1, then hit enter, press enter twice until it starts the steps.
26. It'll restart your kindle a couple times make sure you don't press enter until it has booted up again whenever it prompts you to (ie wait 3 mins before pressing enter) your Now rooted – you don’t have to press any key on the pc now.
27. If you want proof, you can download Es File explorer and in the apps settings goto root settings grant it Root permissions in the settings by ticking root explorer boxe and clicking yes and grant for both
:good: thank for sharing..wil try root my kindle fire...cheerzz
Thought this was great, could finally get my mum's Kindle rooted and put Play Store on it....... Then found that it says I've reached my download limit and that I need to register and pay...
Back to the drawing board.

This happened to me. And I googled extensively about the problem. Honestly.. the only thing to do is keep running the script.. worked for me after about 20 tries. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Rooting Kindle Fire 10.2.6
I was able to get my Kindle Fire .v2 rooted. I ran through the process again. This time going back to the beginning.
I wasn't able to get it to run, so I refreshed the files, and ran it again. It took 2 attempts to get the first script to run. I thought it didn't run, so I was searching for a reason why. Then I looked up, and the script had finished. Then it took 3 times for the second part of the script to complete.
After getting the the launcher I wanted installed (APEX failed, so did Novo and a few others) AWD worked, but I was unable to get it to be the default launcher. (the kindle launchers 'default' settings were grayed out.
I then went into /system/app and renamed Launcher.apk to Launcher Default.apk and the com.awd.launcher-1.apk to Launcher.apk.
the system didn't respond when I pressed the home key, so I took a chance and rebooted my kindle.
When it rebooted, I was asked which launcher I wanted to use, so I clicked set as default, and clicked on AWD.
All is good now. Thanks

[Guide]Data Recovery -Internal [Note 2 or Any Android]

Hello here is a guide to Recover Deleted files from internal memory From Any android Phone
You Need
1.Rooted Android phone ( In my case i used Note 2 N7105 )
2.Install busybox ( Note : Install in /system/bin NOT at system/xbin )
3.Drivers Installed on your computer
4.Download The Recovery Tool.rar [ https://www.box.com/s/zw0sfprtlx4dqysd018o ]
5. Download Recuva [ http://www.piriform.com/recuva/download ]. This is the Software going to recover your file , or you can use your favourite Data recovery software . But i suggest Recuva
Steps :
1. Take your rooted phone . Go to Setting->Devoloper Option -> Tick on Stay awake and USB debugging
2.Connect your Phone to the Computer , Let the driver Install .
3.Extract Recovery Tool.rar to c:/ ( You will Find two folder AB and Cygwin )
4.Click Start -> Run ,
Type " CMD " Press Enter
5.Dos Window will open up Now Type " cd c:\ab\ " Press Enter
6. Type " adb devices " Press Enter
** Make sure it returning out Some numbers (IMEI) under list of devices
7.Type " adb Shell mount " Press Enter
Now this is something important , After the command adb shell mount it will give a long List you need to fine "dev/block/mmcblkop"xx" /data(or user data "
Note : The xx can be any number
In N7105 its " mmcblk0p16 " is data Partition .
The last two number (xx) will change from mobile to mobile . Just note the partition name . In my case its " mmcblk0p16 "
8.Close the CMD window . Go to My Computer->C:/->Cygwin->Open Cygwin Terminal
9.Type " export PATH="/cygdrive/c/ab":$PATH " Press Enter
10.Type " adb forward tcp:5555 tcp:5555 " Press Enter
11.Type " adb shell " Press Enter
12.Type " su " Press Enter
13.Grant Superuser Right on your Phone
14.Type " /system/bin/busybox nc -l -p 5555 -e /system/bin/busybox dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 " Press Enter
15.Minimize the window , Open another cygwin Terminal i.e. My Computer->C:/->Cygwin->Open Cygwin Terminal
16.Type " export PATH="/cygdrive/c/ab":$PATH " Press Enter
17.Type " adb forward tcp:5555 tcp:5555 " Press Enter
18.Type " cd /aa " Press Enter
19.Type " nc 127.0.0.1 5555 | pv -i 0.5 > mmcblk0p16.raw " Press Enter
20. Now let it Run this will take long time for me it took me One hour to complete
21.After it Compltes Click start->Run Type " cmd " Press Enter
22. Type " cd c:\cygwin\aa\ " Press Enter
23.Type " VhdTool.exe /convert mmcblk0p16.raw " Press Enter
24.Now Close Everything .. Right Click My Comuter->Manage
25.Now Select Storage-->Disk Management.
26.In the menu select Action-->Attach VHD.
27.For Location enter " c:\cygwin\aa\mmcblk0p16.raw " and select the OK button.
28.Right-click on the name (e.g. "Disk 1") to the left of the Unallocated space and select Initialize Disk.
29.Select the GPT (GUID Partition Table) radio button and select the OK button.
30.Right-click on the Unallocated space and select New Simple Volume...
31.In the Wizard select Next>, leave the default for the volume size, select Next>, select a drive letter (e.g. K), select Next>, MAKE SURE to select
the 'Do not format this volume' radio button, select Next>, select Finish.
32.A box will pop up asking you to format the drive. You DO NOT want to format the drive at this time.
33.Right-click on the RAW space and select Format... MAKE SURE to change the File system to FAT32. Set the Allocation unit size dropdown to 'Default.' MAKE SURE that the Perform a quick format checkbox is CHECKED. You do not want to overwrite the entire new drive with all zeroes (0's) and destroy your data. Quick Format means that it will only attempt to destroy the index for the drive by establishing a new index. Without this box checked the Windows operating system will write zeroes (0's) across the entire volume, potentially destroying your data. Select the OK button.
34.A box will pop up saying that Formatting this volume will erase all data on it. That would be doubly true if you actually didn't check the 'Perform a quick format' checkbox. Double check that you actually did check the box and select the OK button.
35.Open the Piriform Recuva application. In the wizard select the 'Next >' button. Select the 'Other' radio button and select Next >. Select the 'In a specific location' radio button and enter: k:\ (assuming K is the drive letter you chose...) Select the Next > button. Select the Enable Deep Scan checkbox.
36.The application may take about an hour to do the 'Deep Scan.'
37.Once the application has returned its results you can choose which files to recover using the checkboxes. Select the 'Recover...' button and choose the location to which you wish to output your files.

If you have used external SD Card as the location for saving raw image, this guide would have been less scary
Good guide though :good:
Thanks but since Jelly Bean I have resigned myself to the fact that there is no practical way to recover data from the internal storage (the lack of a recycle bin is one of the very few Android's big flaws) so I keep my data on the 64GB external one. I reserve the internal storage only for whatsapp and viber photo and video, Navigon maps (the whole European set), apps and the few other things which are always kept there (like SMS messages, e-mails, Dropbox offline files etc etc) . Doing so I have less than 3GB free on the internal memory so I would be keeping my data on the external SD card anyway...
Now this is something important , After the command adb shell mount it will give a long List you need to fine "dev/block/mmcblkop"xx" /data(or user data "
Note : The xx can be any number
In N7105 its " mmcblk0p16 " is data Partition .

Data Recovery from a Locked Samsung Note Tablet.
Does the procedure posted by Capt.Nizam work for the tablet with forgotten password? Since it has a password on, the device will not mount on a PC or Mac. And because of Samsung encryption recovery through regular means might not be an option. How can I by pass the password and get into the flash chip to recover the data.
I posted the following on a forum with no response; does anyone have a better solution?
For the past few days I have surfed the web looking for a solution to recover my data from the Samsung Tablet 10.1 Note. I forgot the password I had and cannot loose the data by doing a hard reset/factory reset. There has to be a way to get back into the flash chip and recover data; even if it means physically opening up the tablet and removing the motherboard.
Since the password encrypts the data, the tablet shows up on a pc or mac when connected with a USB cable but shows no data.
Please, is there anyone who knows a way around?
Thank you in advance.

Hi, [email protected], you can try Android Data Recovery. It is a powerful and useful recovery software originally developed to retrieve lost data from Android SD card. All lost data or deleted files, including photos, songs, videos and other data files can be restored as you want.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 on Verizon updated to 5.1.1 (BPA1)
PC with Windows
Micro USB Cable
MicroSD Card
MicroSD Card Reader/USB Adapter (To Format MicroSD Card)
Step 0: Install Note 4 USB Drivers
If you haven’t done this before at some point it’s as simple as opening the Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers included with this guide.
Step 1: Backup All The Things!
Backup anything that is important to you. You should regularly be doing this anyway.
If you use Two Factor Authentication such as Google Authenticator or Lastpass’ Authenticator I highly suggest you disable this before proceeding as we will be factory resetting your device potentially locking you out of some accounts or making them significantly more difficult to recover access too.
Step 1.5: Disable Encryption
Disable both device and sd card encryption.
Step 2: Factory Reset
Factory Reset your phone and format the sd card.
Step 3: Preparing The Device
Follow the directions below to navigate your device’s settings’ menus to change the required settings.
Settings > Security > Reactivation Lock | Disabled! This is very important!
Settings > Security > Unknown sources | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > USB debugging | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > Verify app via USB | Enabled
Move the file NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk included with this guide to your phone’s download folder. When plugged in with a usb cable to your computer it’s usually located at “SAMSUNG-SM-N910V\Phone\Download”.
Step 4: Preparing Your PC
Run minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup.exe included with this guide.
Pay attention to what directory this installs to. It’s usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
Step 4.1: Copying Files
samsung_unlock_n4-fix & BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip included with this guide need to be copied (the actual files, don’t create shortcuts) to the install folder for ADB (Usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.). These files must be in the same folder as adb.exe
Step 5: ADB & The Unlocker
Your phone should have been connected already with a usb cable to your computer. We need to verify your phone is found by adb. Open adb.exe located in the folder from Step 4. Once the window (cmd.exe) opens a command line interface saying
Code:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10586]
(c) 2015 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
Type in the following command: adb devices
Which should return the following
Code:
List of devices attached
123a12ab device
The 123a12ab is made up. Yours will be specific to your device. If you see something listed like the above adb is working. Now on to the next command to move the unlocker to the phone.
Step 5.1: Send Unlocker to Phone with adb
Type the following command: adb push samsung_unlock_n4-fix /data/local/tmp/
If you get an error it’s because you a) typo b) file isn’t in the folder with adb.exe c) your phone is locked/screen is off d) usb debugging isn’t turned on in settings > developer options.
Step 6: Kingroot For Temp Root
Keep the adb window accessible you will need to be able to switch to it and enter in the commands below quickly as temp root is unstable. Be ready to copy or type them quickly.
On your phone open the app My Files. Click on Device storage > Download > NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk to install Kingroot. After it installs click close, not open. Close all running apps.
Step 6.5: Work Quick With Precision
Open Root Checker so it’s ready to go. Don’t Check yet. Hit the home button and then open Kingroot. In Kingroot scroll down and click the button to start temp root. If you don’t see root successful after a minute or two or four you may need to restart your phone and repeat the process of opening root checker and then Kingroot.
Once you do see successful root click the multi tasking button on the phone to switch over to root checker. Temp root is buggy and may crash. If it does repeat this process again with getting temp root and opening the apps in the correct order.
If you make it into root checker via the multi tasking button it will ask you to grant it root access, click yes, check for root. If it says you have root go to the adb window and type these comamnds in quickly before temp root causes your phone to crash.
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix
chown root.root samsung_unlock_n4-fix
./samsung_unlock_n4-fix
The device will reboot. After reboot, shut the phone down by removing only the battery and usb cable.
Step 7: One More Time
Put the battery and cable back in and turn the phone back on. Now repeat Step 5 & 6.5 but skip Step 5.1 and Step 6. After you send the last adb command and it reboots again pull the battery, sd card, and usb cable. Keep the sd card out! Until you plug it into your computer and format it. It doesn’t matter when you format it if it’s not reporting the correct size. This will be fixed by putting it back into your phone AFTER you format it on your pc and formatting it on the phone.
Step 8: Temp Root A Third Time
If it isn’t already installed go ahead and install Super-Sume Pro.
Close all apps.
Open Super-Sume Pro, click the home button, and open Kingroot.
In Kingroot apply temp root. Click the multi tasking button and switch over to Super-Sume Pro. When it asks for Root grant it. Click the big blue button and follow the instructions. It may take a minute or two. Shut the phone down after it’s done.
Step 9: Odin
Turn the phone on and enter download mode by pressing and holding volume down + power + home. When it’s comes to the screen and says “Downloading” you’re ready to proceed. Open the file included with this guide Odin3 v3.09.exe. In Odin3 where it says Files [Download] click AP and navigate to the folder with this guide and select/open the file twrp-3.0.2-0-trltevzw.tar.md5 and then click Start. Once it finishes it will enter a black screen to reboot. Press and hold these buttons immediately to enter TWRP , volume up + power + home.
Step 10: TWRP & ADB Sideloading
Swipe to allow changes in TWRP. Click Advanced and then ADB Sideload. Swipe to start adb. On your computer open adb.exe from Step 4. On the command line interface in adb.exe
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip
The phone will install Super SU, after it is finished we will install the new Kernel before rebooting.
You may need to re-enter ADB Sideload on the phone.
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload Emotion-TW-5.1.1-nightly-r21-RC1-SM-N910P.zip
Reboot the phone.
If boots into 5.1.1 open root checker and verify you have root.

Thank you for posting this so clearly! Would Samsung "smart switch" be a viable tool to use for backing up all my apps/app data, home screen setup, etc. before rooting, and still work to import the data after rooting?

That kernel flash is optional from what I've seen. That's just what people have been wanting on their phones

It's included in Step 10. I think you may have missed it. It's the very last step. It's also included in the Google Drive folder and torrent.
You shouldn't need to do SuperSuMe. You can use Kingroot for the whole shebang. Also, you will need a kernel for 5.1.x roms otherwise it will bootloop at the Verizon logo.

I have not used it. What I did was find every export settings/backup option in apps like nova launcher. I wrote down one time passwords for eligible accounts or disabled 2 factor Auth temporarily. I copied my SD card to my computer, along with all the files in the folders Downloads, Media, DCIM, etc. I exported my contacts and copied the file to my pc. I didn't care about any saved games so I can't help you there. Some people have success with Helium for back ups. Using the pc backup option.

The kernel is included. See comment below from the guy who said I didn't include it.
I heard kingroot sends data to China. So I don't want it on my phone longer than needed.

isnt kingroot deleted once you do a full wipe before installing a custom rom via twrp?

Correct. Though this is a guide for staying on stock rom with root and the option to change roms at a later point easily.

samsung_unlock_n4-fix & BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip included with this guide need to be copied (the actual files, don’t create shortcuts) to the install folder for ADB (Usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.). These files must be in the same folder as adb.exe
Step 5: ADB & The Unlocker
Your phone should have been connected already with a usb cable to your computer. We need to verify your phone is found by adb. Open adb.exe located in the folder from Step 4. Once the window (cmd.exe) opens a command line interface saying
Code:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10586]
(c) 2015 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
Type in the following command: adb devices
Which should return the following
Code:
List of devices attached
123a12ab device
The 123a12ab is made up. Yours will be specific to your device. If you see something listed like the above adb is working. Now on to the next command to move the unlocker to the phone.
Step 5.1: Send Unlocker to Phone with adb
Type the following command: adb push samsung_unlock_n4-fix /data/local/tmp/
If you get an error it’s because you a) typo b) file isn’t in the folder with adb.exe c) your phone is locked/screen is off d) usb debugging isn’t turned on in settings > developer options.
Step 6: Kingroot For Temp Root
Keep the adb window accessible you will need to be able to switch to it and enter in the commands below quickly as temp root is unstable. Be ready to copy or type them quickly.
On your phone open the app My Files. Click on Device storage > Download > NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk to install Kingroot. After it installs click close, not open. Close all running apps.
Step 6.5: Work Quick With Precision
Open Root Checker so it’s ready to go. Don’t Check yet. Hit the home button and then open Kingroot. In Kingroot scroll down and click the button to start temp root. If you don’t see root successful after a minute or two or four you may need to restart your phone and repeat the process of opening root checker and then Kingroot.
Once you do see successful root click the multi tasking button on the phone to switch over to root checker. Temp root is buggy and may crash. If it does repeat this process again with getting temp root and opening the apps in the correct order.
If you make it into root checker via the multi tasking button it will ask you to grant it root access, click yes, check for root. If it says you have root go to the adb window and type these comamnds in quickly before temp root causes your phone to crash.
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix
chown root.root samsung_unlock_n4-fix
./samsung_unlock_n4-fix
The device will reboot. After reboot, shut the phone down by removing only the battery and usb cable.
Step 7: One More Time
Put the battery and cable back in and turn the phone back on. Now repeat Step 5 & 6.5 but skip Step 5.1 and Step 6. After you send the last adb command and it reboots again pull the battery, sd card, and usb cable. Keep the sd card out! Until you plug it into your computer and format it. It doesn’t matter when you format it if it’s not reporting the correct size. This will be fixed by putting it back into your phone AFTER you format it on your pc and formatting it on the phone.
Step 8: Temp Root A Third Time
If it isn’t already installed go ahead and install Super-Sume Pro.
Close all apps.
Open Super-Sume Pro, click the home button, and open Kingroot.
In Kingroot apply temp root. Click the multi tasking button and switch over to Super-Sume Pro. When it asks for Root grant it. Click the big blue button and follow the instructions. It may take a minute or two. Shut the phone down after it’s done.
Step 9: Odin
Turn the phone on and enter download mode by pressing and holding volume down + power + home. When it’s comes to the screen and says “Downloading” you’re ready to proceed. Open the file included with this guide Odin3 v3.09.exe. In Odin3 where it says Files [Download] click AP and navigate to the folder with this guide and select/open the file twrp-3.0.2-0-trltevzw.tar.md5 and then click Start. Once it finishes it will enter a black screen to reboot. Press and hold these buttons immediately to enter TWRP , volume up + power + home.
Step 10: TWRP & ADB Sideloading
Swipe to allow changes in TWRP. Click Advanced and then ADB Sideload. Swipe to start adb. On your computer open adb.exe from Step 4. On the command line interface in adb.exe
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip
The phone will install Super SU, after it is finished we will install the new Kernel before rebooting.
You may need to re-enter ADB Sideload on the phone.
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload Emotion-TW-5.1.1-nightly-r21-RC1-SM-N910P.zip
Reboot the phone.
If boots into 5.1.1 open root checker and verify you have root.

Hey thanks to all devs for all that is being done to make our n4 more lovable. I have everything set up per op. ADB sees my phone and I am able to get root. I enter all the lines of the code and get positive response on all till I get to chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix. It is in my minimal adb and fastboot folder. It is also unzipped. It all works up to there. Also have drivers installed. Thanks

If you haven’t done this before at some point it’s as simple as opening the Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers included with this guide.
Step 1: Backup All The Things!
Backup anything that is important to you. You should regularly be doing this anyway.
If you use Two Factor Authentication such as Google Authenticator or Lastpass’ Authenticator I highly suggest you disable this before proceeding as we will be factory resetting your device potentially locking you out of some accounts or making them significantly more difficult to recover access too.
Step 1.5: Disable Encryption
Disable both device and sd card encryption.
Step 2: Factory Reset
Factory Reset your phone and format the sd card.
Step 3: Preparing The Device
Follow the directions below to navigate your device’s settings’ menus to change the required settings.
Settings > Security > Reactivation Lock | Disabled! This is very important!
Settings > Security > Unknown sources | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > USB debugging | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > Verify app via USB | Enabled
Move the file NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk included with this guide to your phone’s download folder. When plugged in with a usb cable to your computer it’s usually located at “SAMSUNG-SM-N910V\Phone\Download”.
Step 4: Preparing Your PC
Run minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup.exe included with this guide.
Pay attention to what directory this installs to. It’s usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.

Good one mate...
You can also flash MultiSystem-Kernel_LP-5.1.1 by @hsbadr instead of emotion kernel!
Its SE Permissive and wont show, "Seandroid is not selinux enforcing" error during boot and very snappy!
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24415232478676428
Yes this is a very good write-up of instructions. But I too, think the flashing the kernel is worth mentioning, considering I went through all this and ended up boot looping because I did not have the kernel, ended up doing it all over again, but a lot smarter the second time around.
?If someone helps you, plz thank them?

My Super-Sume Pro is stuck on the beginning of Step 2. Is this necessary to run or can I skip out on it.

A Noobs Guide ! Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Hardware Repair, Root, install Twrp and ROM's

Hello,
In the process of flashing my note 4, several dozen times, it seems I overheated it while flashing and burned up my memory and got the dreaded memory error,
which requires you to either
1, buy a machine to remove the memory chip, solder in a new one, and reprogram it with a special flashing tool, ( probably several thousand dollars, with acccess to the correct flash file
or
2, buy a new motherboard
So,
I ordered a new motherboard from China, 29.00 on Alibaba.
When i received it it was already setup booted to a running 5.0.1 oem rom, with no user or other programs setup. I could not root it..
I tried several guides and found this one by @hsbadr
Code:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/development/howto-bootloader-unlock-upgrade-to-t3398144
In the forum found this link to files needed
Code:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=15720#downloads
with this file
Code:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=18880
and installed it via odin.
Both this guide
Code:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3360883
and @hsbadr guide shows to install kingroot, others show kingoroot, and others show to install a perm root after temp root.
In way with either my oem 5.0.1 or 5.1.1 could I root with kingroot, with any flavor of file! kingoroot would not install on either rom.
HOWEVER i was successful at using the PC kingoroot version with the above file mentioned.
CAUTION #1. make sure you have an antivirus installed to block some spyware. I used AVG with windows 7
CAUTION #2. dont click on any popups except to close them except for the main root screen
Root took about 30 sec with no reboots,
Caution : its a temp root that wont last on reboot
so continue onto
ADB & The Unlocker
install ADB to c:/ADB folder
copy the unlocker file to this folder or add c:/ADB to your path
Your phone should have been connected already with a usb cable to your computer. We need to verify your phone is found by adb.
open search by your home button in windows
search command or cmd
right click, open as administrator
change directory to your adb folder and
Type in the following command:
Code:
adb devices
Which should return the following
Code:
List of devices attached
123a12ab device
The 123a12ab is made up. Yours will be specific to your device.
If you see something listed like the above adb is working. Now on to the next command to move the unlocker to the phone.
Step 5.1: Send Unlocker to Phone with adb
Type the following command: adb push samsung_unlock_n4-fix /data/local/tmp/
If you get an error it’s because you a) typo b) file isn’t in the folder with adb.exe c) your phone is locked/screen is off d) usb debugging isn’t turned on in settings > developer options.
++++ modified, you should have temp root with kingoroot pc version
Step 6: SKIP -----Kingroot For Temp Root
Keep the adb window accessible you will need to be able to switch to it and enter in the commands below quickly as temp root is unstable. Be ready to copy or type them quickly.
Step 6.5: Work Quick With Precision
++++ modified
Open Root Checker so it’s ready to go. Check .
Once you do see successful root click the multi tasking button on the phone to switch over to root checker. Temp root is buggy and may crash. If it does repeat this process again with getting temp root and opening the apps in the correct order.
If you make it into root checker via the multi tasking button it will ask you to grant it root access, click yes, check for root. If it says you have root go to the command adb window and type these commands in quickly to verify root
you are now going to enter the linux shell on your device
Code:
adb shell
su
if you see the # prompt you are ready. copy and paste the following
Code:
cd /data/local/tmp/ && chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix && chown root.root samsung_unlock_n4-fix && ./samsung_unlock_n4-fix
The device will reboot and flash the developer code, shut the phone down by removing only the battery and usb cable.
+++++ edited
Step 7: One More Time to unlock the bootloader !!
Put the battery and cable back in and turn the phone back on.
Now repeat the kingoroot PC to gain temp root
Repeat step 6.5
After you send the last adb command and it will reboot and enter a bootloop . THIS IS NORMAL.
again pull the usb cable.
Pull the Battery
PULL THE SD Card and Keep the sd card out!
The sd card is unusable and needs a reformat, or you can keep it because it has a backup of your locked bootloader
Until you plug it into your computer and format it. It doesn’t matter when you format it if it’s not reporting the correct size. This will be fixed by putting it back into your phone AFTER you format it on your pc and formatting it on the phone.
Your bootloader is NOW UNLOCKED
reboot your phone,
and install TWRP via ODIN !!
++++ ignore this it wont work i tried . you need the androind kingroot or kingoroot to work. if u use kingoroot PC to root again, SUPERSUme will not find it .. waste of time
Step 8: Temp Root A Third Time
+++ Modified
Step 8: copy over a rom that you have already downloaded that you want to try
I reccomend this one
Code:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/oreo-8-1-0-unofficial-lineage-15-1-rom-t3760969
download the rom, and the gapps to your computer and transfer them to a clean SD card.
power off the phone and install the SD card with your rom files
++++ Now were going to do it !!!
Step 9: Odin the newest twrp
Turn the phone on and enter download mode by pressing and holding volume down + power + home. When it’s comes to the screen and says “Downloading” you’re ready to proceed.
Browse to your ODIN folder on your computer , right click, open as administrator the odin.exe file
In Odin3 where it says Files [Download] click AP and navigate to the folder you have the twrp file . select/open the file twrp-3.x.x.x-trltevzw.tar.md5
Turn off the automatic rebooting in the custom tab, DO NOT select the PIT tab
Press start
Once it finishes it will say Success or FAILED
IF it says FAILED start the process over, you didn't unlock the bootloader
Power off the phone with the pull battery method
Press and hold these buttons immediately to enter TWRP ,
volume up + power + home.
++++ this step 10 is outdated. see mine below
++++ There are other methods to root unless you want to root your stock 5.1.1 kernel and stay there
Step 10: TWRP & ADB Sideloading
Swipe to allow changes in TWRP. Click Advanced and then ADB Sideload. Swipe to start adb. On your computer open adb.exe from Step 4. On the command line interface in adb.exe
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip
The phone will install Super SU, after it is finished we will install the new Kernel before rebooting.
You may need to re-enter ADB Sideload on the phone.
Type the following command: ab devices
Verify your device is there and sys sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload Emotion-TW-5.1.1-nightly-r21-RC1-SM-N910P.zip
Reboot the phone.
If boots into 5.1.1 open root checker and verify you have root.
++++++
Step 11: TWRP rom setup the first time by @tripLr
power on phone to recovery by holding down <up> <home> then <power>
boot into TWRP, allow changes.
select backup , change to SD card
BACKUP your rootable device with the bootloader and modem and everything. Name the backup rooted-backup-everything-5.1.1
go to install but DONT install yet
Select your sd card.
You should see the files for the ROM you transferred from your computer
If You dont, you can boot back up, transfer the files appropriately . Then come back here.
Now go to Wipe, Custom, and select everything except external SD card.
THIS IS TO guarantee, no Kingoroot or kingroot stuff is in the phone !!!
WIPE IT TWICE !!!
Now install you ROM, and after your inital setup, come back to TWRP and do a full backup
every time you try a new rom, and get it set up, do a backup. that way you can switch and test to your hearts desire till you run out of SD memory.
The cool thing is you can backup to an external memory device ! more room !
Enjoy

HTC G1 UK - Root guide for stock fw

Please do not try this unless you have a G1 from the uk, it may work on devices from europe but i'm not sure so do so at your own risk
Thought i'd make this quick guide as I just got a G1 and have been looking through tonnes of guides and trying to hunt down files, this method is a bit of a mix between some of the older methods of getting root. The only reason I had to do it like this is because I was not able to install any apps via the web browser because they wouldn't download.
0. Start with device powered off
1. Copy DREAIMG.NBH from HappyNewYearUK.zip to sd card
2. Hold camera and power to boot into spl and then then flash the nbh
3. Reboot device after flashing
4. Once booted turn device off, remove sim card and reboot
5. At the no sim screen slide keyboard open and type <enter>setprop persist.service.adb.enable 1<enter>
6. Power off, put simcard back in the device and reboot
7. On pc run "adb shell" then enter "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.Settings"
8. Once settings has opened connect to wifi then go back to setup and complete setup steps
9. Install androot via adb "adb install androot.apk"
10. Power down device and put signed-kila_uk-ota-116470-prereq.TC5-RC7.7a5a0178.zip on sd card as update.zip
11. Hold home and end call button to boot into recovery
12. Press alt + l then alt + s to install the update
13. Press home+back after flashing and let the device reboot (do not touch it until back on android as it may do multiple flashes after exiting recovery)
14. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-ota-146733.53218c9e(full update).zip
If you just wanted to get root to be able to install a recovery you can stop here, if you want to get up to the newest stock fw 1.6 follow the rest
15. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-CRB17-from-TMI-RC9-eu.17667e06(inkrementalni update).zip (may not be necessary i dont remember lmao)
16. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-CRB43-from-CRB17.1638e1b4.zip
17. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-CRC1-from-CRB43-FIX2.1c36f92b.zip
18. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-CRC37-from-CRC1.404fe17f.zip
19. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-DRC92-from-CRC37.a7b90b4e.zip
20. Once the updates zips have both been installed you can reboot then get root using the Universal androot app
Installing Recovery
1. Copy the flash_image binary from flash_image.zip to sdcard
2. Copy recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0.img to sdcard as recovery.img
3. From either adb shell or terminal emulator on the device do
su
mount -o remount, rw /system
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
