I was able to by deleting autostart.iso file from \system\etc
I use Mac and it no longer mounts the mobile Verizon app. I assume its the same for windows.

You need root to do this... I probly should have mentioned that. Sorry. Getting root is easy now, there are a could threads on how to root with very easy step by step instructions. After you gain root, purchase root explorer from PlayStore (yes, you have to spend a couple $ but its worth it) and use that app to navigate and delete the file. You will likely use the app again, unless you switch to an iPhone. So it's worth the little bit of money.
I see autorun.iso, I assume that's what you're referring?

Ok. I was able to download a root explorer and remove the autorun.iso. But I notice the phone still says "Installer is connected" and I still can't view the sdcard or drive on the phone unless I'm in Camara(PTP) mode.

Check your usb debugging settings. you might need to either check that box or unchecked it. I can't help much more than that if you're using Windows, I'm a mac user. But that sounds like all you would need to do. Hope it helps.
Verizon installer
Okay here is a weird one (or maybe not). Started getting this when I first connected the S4 to PC via USB. Now when I connect my S3 I am getting the same popup. S3 is rooted never had this message.
I am thinking this is somehow embedded into the new Samsung USB drivers. When the phone is plugged in, some form of check reveals a VZW phone which triggers the installer????
Did anyone figure this out? I was able to stop the Verizon Installer Pop up by renaming the autorun.iso, but there is still a 30 second delay before I get access the the phones internal and external memory.

I think I figured it out. I'm still on original MDK build. I don't know if that changes anything.
1. autorun.iso removed (may not be necessary, but mine is gone)
2. enable hidden menus (step 2) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303905
3. enter dialer code *#0808#
4. select MTP+ADB
5. reboot (may not be necessary)
My phone originally had nothing selected. I don't know how to go back to that unselected mode. I can't guarantee anything. It's working for me. My phone now connects in MTP mode within a second or two of connection (unless the phone is in the middle of a reboot, then that has to complete first.)

Removing the file should work, if it's giving you a delay then my guess is either your computer or the device is trying to find the file. Back on my s3 and dna rom I had only removed the file and vzw installer didn't show up

Removing the file does not solve the problem, it still connects as installer for a while before connecting as media device. It's not a huge problem, just annoying! I'm curious if everyone has this problem, or if it's just a few of us??

I have the same issue. I've tried looking through/changing settings in build.prop, default.prop and init.usb.rc with no luck. I need to do a little more searching to better understand init.usb.rc as a lot of the settings are jibberish to me.

Howdy folks,
Yesterday, I was the proud owner of a sleek little TCT.Alcatel OneTouch A554C, formally know as a Virgin Mobile Venture running Android version 2.3.5.
It was successfully and surprisingly easy to root by utilizing 2 cool little apps, Ministro and Poot-Debug.
After root, I subsequently downloaded some root tools (eg., Titanium Backup Pro, Superuser Elite, System App Uninstaller).
That was last week.
Yesterday, I got a bit cocky. I needed to clear up some internal memory so I used "System App Uninstaller" to uninstall a few apps. If I remember correctly, the apps were as follows: Google Maps, Google Maps Street View, Calculator, Digital Clock, Setup Wizard, Android Live Wallpaper, Live Wallpaper Picker, Magic Smoke Wallpaper, Music Visualization Wallpaper, and the TouchPal Keyboard French and Spanish Language Packs.
So far so good, right? However, I believe I may have snarfed-up when I uninstalled the Setup Wizard. But I'll get to that in a minute.
Now with Titanium Backup, I moved some apps to the sd card. Included was the stock launcher, Smart Launcher Pro, SPB Shell, AVG Anti-Virus, and Superuser Elite. Then I rebooted through Titanium Backup and I haven't viewed any pornographic material since!
After reboot, the phone got stuck on the final boot animation frame. I panicked, pulled the battery, booted into recovery then rebooted a 2nd time.
This time it booted to the pull-down lock screen. I unlocked and seen:
"Sorry! The application com.android.setup wizard has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Along with a "Force Close" option. I forced closed and the screen went black with the exception of the status bar. The phone is still on but otherwise...nada.
When I press the power button, same thing happens: pull-down lock screen, screen goes black. Or sometimes, it will turn on and boot loop.
Major panic time!!! I booted into recovery again and performed a factory reset to no avail.
Another clue to note: I can connect & access the sd card via usb to desktop.
Also, I did have the good sense to backup all apps, system and user, through ES File Explorer and stored them both on sd card and in the cloud via Yandex Disk prior to this bricking fiasco. Now, what do I do with them? I now realize it was possibly a mistake moving all 3 launchers to the sd card. How do I get the stock launcher back to the phone?
Or, should I:
1- Attempt a base rom reinstall or
2- Attempt a custom rom install or
3- Use it solely as a time piece/mass storage device or
4- Throw it very hard and very ******* far away from me!?
I realize this is an obscure little cheap phone but it's the only one I have. Any valid feedback would be greatly appreciated.
You can go to the Play Store on any browser and choose a launcher to install. Or if you have USB Debugging on, you can side load an launcher apk. Or if you install a custom recovery, you can install another rom or sideload an apk there. Or you can flash the original firmware via SP Flash Tool.
Lots of options and none of them need to be throwing it against the wall.

Hmmm...Ok, thanks. Dig your username, by the way.
First thing is, install from play store would be possible if I had data service or if I was able to enable wi-fi. I only have calling & texting service on this phone and as for wi-fi, I can't enable it due to the problem of not being able to access the settings menu. All I have when it does boot, and it only fully boots when it is connected to a PC, is the pull-down lockscreen displaying time, date, status bar and the original wallpaper. Pull it down and the screen goes black with status bar still displayed along with time & battery level.
Secondly, USB debugging was enabled prior to all of this but I panicked & performed a factory reset. Don't think it's still on.
And lastly, is installing either a custom recovery, (which, to be frank, I'm just not that savvy) another rom or flashing original firmware even possible without a PC? Because I only have access to a PC without administrative privileges so therefore...no installing exe's without a password. Maybe this program lab will allow me, quite possibly not.
Hell, would I even still have root after a reset/data wipe?
Thanks, anyway, Esoteric Chaos

You can go to ANY browser - even on the PC and log into your account and hit Install and it will send the command to your phone to install it. Pretty nifty. But you did say you factory reset, so that isn't actually going to work. Sorry.
The rest of the stuff would require a PC, though I don't think admin rights are needed, so there's that...
If you don't have your phone logged into Google or USB Debugging enabled, you're kind of stuck without a PC.

Well, on these PCs it certainly does. I thought I was on track yesterday and tried to install a copy of Odin that I found. Can't install without a frigging admin pass.
Someone else just suggested I try a stock rom flash. Might as well, right? Happen to know where I could find a good reliable copy? That also happens to be free?
Not sure why you were trying to use Odin for a non Samsung phone...?
The stock rom flash would only be possible via PC or if you had a custom recovery installed.
Here's what you would need to do for the Virgin Mobile Venture:
Download CWM: http://www.sendspace.com/file/4gt04i
Download adb/fastboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Download rom: http://goo.im/devs/LeslieAnn/Venture/Stock_Venture.zip - Put on SD card.
Drivers: http://pdanet.co/bin/PdaNetA4150.exe (this program is for USB tethering and installs the adb drivers for your phone as well as many others)
The CWM img will need to be in the folder you unzipped for adb/fastboot. You'll need to boot to fastboot mode by powering on with while holding Volume Up.
Open a terminal prompt and change directories to your adb/fastboot folder. Then run this command:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img - fill in the nameofrecovery with whatever the CWM file name is.
(if this doesn't work - make sure that your PC is reading the phone correctly by using the command: fastboot devices . If you don't get anything back, make sure you check the Device Manager for errors. If you have them, try reinstalling the drivers and rebooting the PC)
Then pop the battery out and then reboot to recovery via powering on while holding volume down. Once there, you should be able to do a factory reset and then install the stock rom zip. The volume keys should scroll through selections and the Enter key for accept, or Power if that doesn't work. Not really sure about this particular phone.)
Actually, you might just be able to use adb to install a launcher apk once you have CWM installed. Might be a little easier.
launcher apk must be in adb folder then while in CWM:
adb install nameoflauncher.apk
Note: You can rename zips and apks to be easier to type the commands.

Yeah, me either. I was all over the place yesterday grasping at anything. So Odin is only for Samsungs, huh? Guess I can delete the exe file from my sd.
Right then. I'm about to proceed with your advice. Cross your fingers and toes.

Wait, what? Please excuse my ignorance, but am I missing something. ADB didn't come in a zip. It's an installer. I think you may have to dumb this down a bit more, mate.

If you can't run the exe file, then let me know, and I'll just upload a zip / folder with the necessary files. You do not need admin access to run the adb commands.

That would be really cool, actually. But check this out:
I talked someone into allowing me to utilize his laptop. I installed ADB, moved the Launcher APK to the folder suggested, ran the commands but the command prompter responded with "waiting for device" and progressed no further. Could it be a driver issue? I was under the impression that if the PC recognizes your device (which it did) then a new driver install was not necessary.
Dude was real cool about it even though I ran his battery down quite significantly and didn't even accomplish anything.
So, if I had the ADB files then I could just copy them to...say the PC desktop and run the command prompter from there? If so, then yes please upload and I'll just try it that route rather than rely on someone's personal PC. Know what i mean?
I do appreciate all of this. I'm getting quite the education here. If you ever get married, let me know and I'll come and dance as my favor to you.:good:
Peace...I'll return tomorrow.
What mode were you in when trying to install? The laptop had the most up to date drivers? You checked the Device Manager to make sure there was no yellow exclamation mark next to the phone? It's not unheard of for the PC to recognize in one mode, but not load the correct drivers in another, as there are different drivers for the phone depending on if it is booted, in recovery, or download mode or whatever they call it for that phone. Just make sure to get the PDAnet drivers installed and reboot. That should do the trick.
Everything else you should need will be in here:

I was in Recovery and I was also attempting to install the just the Launcher versus the entire ROM. And I was also feeling a tad bit rushed, cause dude was right there informing me of his battery status. "Well, it's down to 30%." Then 2 mins later.."Ok, looks like it just fell to 25%."
Haha...so yeah, with him pressuring me, I spaced on checking the device manager. This desktop that I'm on today seems to be cool. Just checked the manager & it informs me that my device is 'working properly'.
Off to give it another bloody joust, mate. Wish me luck...
Can you fully explain how to do this

If anyone has picked up the new LG Optimus Fuel #LGL34C , & doesn't know, it CAN be rooted. I picked up one at Wal Mart last week for $30. I mean, a dual-core Kit Kat 4.4 LG device for $30 - I couldn't pass it up for Dev purposes. Now if I could only unlock the bootloader, lol. It doesn't even boot into Recovery, Bootloader, Download, or Fastboot. I'm sure someone will break it wide open soon.

Yes, I've been trying all kinds of methods, but none of them seem to work. Since the phone is so new, there's not much activity surrounding it, but we will see.

Has anyone been able to get WiFi tether to work on this phone?
I've tried a bunch of different versions of WiFi tether for root users, with a variety of different settings. Usually I get tethering started with errors, but the log file is always blank.
Edit: I've gotten as far as being able to see the network in ad-hock mode. But can't connect to it from my computer.
Update:
I bought WiFi Tether Router in the playstore. Works great.

Hey I have a rooted LG Optimus Fuel and I think I did something to break the WiFi because it won't turn back on at all.. I downloaded MAC Spoofer and changed my MAC address one time then changed it back to default and ever since then WiFi would not turn back on at all.. Im only posting here because this is a fairly new phone and this thread seems to have the most activity about this device.. Please if anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I've gotten as far as being able to see the network in ad-hock mode. But can't connect to it from my computer.
Update:
I bought WiFi Tether Router in the playstore. Works great.

I use Barnacle Wifi Tether, you can download it from the play store. Sometimes it gets hung up and you have to stop and start it again. Other than that it works for me. Would like to see some custom roms and recovery soon for this phone. seems like it has alot of potential.time will tell..
I seem to have accidentally "repurposed" my home button to something else while I was fooling with a /system file. If someone could help that would be great. Even if it was an attacment of a copy of the stock /system folder and all of its sub(directories/folders/files). Actually that would be preffered.
Either way, any and all help is appreciated.

Hi. Can someone confirm this for me? Does this phone, LG Optimus Fuel, use a battery labeled as "LG BL-44JH"?

Mine does. However it is a net10 variant, I cannot confirm nor deny that any other variants, such as Straight Talk, does or does not have that model number on the battery.

LG Optimus Fuel L34C - How To Add Your Own Ringtones
LG Optimus Fuel L34C - How To Add Your Own Ringtones
.
How to add your own MP3 ringtones to a LG Optimus Fuel L34C phone from a Windows PC. This will also probably work on most other LG android smartphones, but I haven't tried it.
.
Any MP3 file can be used as a ringtone, even a whole song. There is no limit to the file size.
.
.
Plug USB data cable into the Windows PC USB port. You can use the charger cable for this, once you disconnect it from the charger plug (If it is the type that unplugs from the charger plug, otherwise you will need a USB to micro-USB data cable).
.
Plug micro USB cable end into L34C phone (The L34C phone should be turned on and on the main screen).
.
Wait for the "Select USB Connection Method" screen to come up on the L34C phone. Choose "Media Sync (MTP)".
.
-On the Windows PC, start the Windows File Explorer.
-Go to the top of the menu tree in Windows File Explorer and select "My PC" or "This PC"
-On the right window pane, next to the C: drive icon, a phone icon should appear with the name of your phone. Double-Click on it.
-Now you should see two selections for the L34C phone, "internal storage" and "SD card". Double-Click on "SD card".
-If there is an "Android" folder, click on it. Otherwise, create a folder called, "Android" (without the quotes).
-Inside the "Android" folder, create a folder called, "media" (without the quotes).
-Inside the "media" folder, create a folder called, "ringtones" (without the quotes).
-Inside the "ringtones" folder, create a folder called, "audio" (without the quotes).
.
The finished folders should look like this (Uppercase and lowercase letters should also match):
.
/Android/media/ringtones/audio/
.
Add any MP3 ringtone files to the "audio" folder you have created on the SD card.
.
.
When finished, disconnect the data cable from the L34C phone.
.
If you go to your phone ringtones list on the LG phone, your added ringtones should appear at the top of the list under "MY RINGTONES", above the "LG RINGTONES" list.
I am making this tutorial as I have had multiple versions of the LG LTE Leon and have used many firmware versions. I have created a stable method that has the least issues as I have had trouble with the latest firmware (MS34510f) disabling my root privileges. I have created a MEGA account specifically for all of the files necessary to complete this operation and have your device run smoothly. So, please follow my instructions exactly as stated and you should not have any issues. THIS PROCESS WILL REMOVE ALL DATA NOT SYNCED, DO READ BELOW NOTES IT IS VERY BENEFICIAL
Important Notes:
+This process will wipe all data that is not synced, it is important to ensure that no newer LG process are still on the device. Some might argue to leave data, to that I say good luck keeping your root and tethering without the device becoming suspiciously unstable.
+ I am not GUARANTEEING this will work on every model, but I have had an extremely high success rate with all Leon versions.
+ In this tutorial the process in which I remove Kingroot and replace it with SuperSu is for system stability. I find that most root functions I use seem to not work properly. (Wifi Tether Router and many others). So, I do recommend doing so.
+After the new OS is installed a MetroPCS splash screen will appear even if you do have T-Mobile. DO NOT BE ALARMED this firmware will not limit any functionality you had before, it will even help with tethering functionality.
Tutorial:
Let's Begin.
1. Download the link posted to obtain required files for this tutorial
Link: https://mega.nz/#F!PM4CQRqb!92kgIOnD0ZBY-8HVbtTwGQ
2. Open up LGFlashTool2014.exe
Begin by copying settings posted below, then click "normal flash"
3. Next click the "START" button
4. At this time, I recommend you verify all sync settings are to your liking and that all personal info needed is backed up
a. You have the option to throw all of your personal documents/pictures onto your SD card and removing it appropriately
(Go to: Settings - Storage - [scroll down to] Unmount SD card)
b. Next, navigate to Settings -Backup & reset [leave options default; both checked off] - Factory data reset - reset phone
c. Once reset it will most likely reboot, wipe, and then back to a OS. Now, you will Power Off entirely (make sure it is not plugged in so it will not go to charging mode)
d. Here is where we will hold down the Volume Up button with the phone unplugged from your PC. Then you must plug the USB into your phone.
e. A black screen with white text should post onto your screen, here we will continue to step 6
note: If this screen does not appear please power off and retry step d.
6. Next, follow the posted settings. Make sure to click the "Clear phone Software update Registry" button Then click "OK"
7. A new screen will arrive, and should begin the firmware download process. At this time it will take a few minute to load and should reboot to a fresh OS.
8. With the new OS in place, you can either follow the setup tutorial now or skip through for a later setup.
note: you can now insert your SD card
9. In the tools folder of the folder you downloaded copy the "mrw" folder to the Main Storage folder of your phone
10. Now copy the Kingroot apk to your downloads folder located on the main storage.
11. Go to Settings - About Phone - Software Info
At this time click the build number box a few times until it says you are a developer
12. Hit back until you are at the Setting menu, click on Developer options and check off "Stay Awake" and "Enable OEM Unlock" as well as "USB Debugging"
13. You may now run Kingroot, if it does not install root the first time it should flawlessly install the next.
14. After root is obtained, please go to your home screen and click the "Google Search" widget. Press Update Google Services and let it run. After that has been updated search for terminal emulator and install.
note: If the Play Store is acting fishy and force closing while typing in the search bar do not fret it will be fixed after reboot in further instruction
as an allternative use the jackpal.androidterm-1.0.70-71-minAPI4.apk provided in the "tools" folder
15. Open terminal and in a new window type: Su
16. Allow root usage and at this time type: sh /storage/emulated/0/mrw/root.sh
17. It will run with a few failed messages do not worry it should open SuperSu momentarily
18. Once SuperSu opens up allow it to update binaries using the "NORMAL" option but DO NOT REBOOT YET
19. At this time either download TWRP Manager from the play store or alternatively use the com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager-7.5.1.3-82-minAPI11.apk provided in the tools folder
20. Install and open TWRP Manager. Once opened click on device name and scroll until you see "LG Leon LTE (c50)"
a. Click on Recovery Version to Install and select "twrp-2.8.7.0-c50.img"
b. next click "Install Recovery" and if prompted for verification of install path and for install version select "YES" & "NORMAL"
21. After the TWRP setup is complete it may prompt you to reboot, if not click the arrow in the top left of the TWRP Manager screen and scroll down to "Reboot" and select "Reboot device"
22. After Reboot click TWRP Manager and verify a SuperSu prompt comes up if it hasn't already before the boot
At this point the device should be running smoothly. From here I prefer to do the following steps.
My Personal Setup after new install:
+Personally I like to install use a Root Uninstaller (I use 3C Toolbox Pro) and Uninstall and Backup all MetroPCS BloatWare including the Metro Browser.
+I also access the Hidden Menu by using the Dialer and Dial "2776348*#*"
- I scroll down to ApnUnlock and click to "Unlock APN"
- Then I navigate to Settings -Tethering & networks - Mobile Networks (I check off roaming data) - Access point names
--I then select the top APN and edit APN Type to: default,supl,mms,dun
---I click save from the top right selection, then turn on and off airplane mode
+If you are and Xposed user download "xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip","xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm.zip", and "XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk" from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
-install the Xposed Installer, then Go to TWRP Manager, use reboot to recovery and from there click install and navigate to the "xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip" and install and reboot, it will reboot with a installing screen before your home screen, takes 5 minutes.
+I also use this AMAZING app "Wifi Tether Router", it is the only tethering app I use that works consistently (if you have an unlimited data plan). I get 30mbps up and down, playing many multiplayer games off my PC and PS4 averaging ping as low as 30 ! Setting I use for our device are in a post I created here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/leon/help/unlimited-metropcs-t-mobile-tether-t3290180

Apologies for the late response, I never received a notification of your posting. I would not recommend that as I believe the H340 has a different "radio" driver or cellular chip, If I'm not mistaken the H340 isn't even LTE, the H345 is. In that case it may be possible. One thing I suggest doing before wasting your time in using any other ROM is googling H345 vs Ms345, typically the phonemore.com results will provide you with an abundance of hardware specs and let you know if they're different! Just be weary of the newest MS34510f_00.KDZ firmware I believe it has an active unroot process I've had some stability issues. I am using MS34510D_00.KDZ for months and have had no issues whatsoever! Again, I'm sorry I got back to you so late, let me know how everything goes!

After going all the way through this guide with a T-Mobile Leon, I do indeed have a Metro PCS ROM and root, which is great! Unfortunately, it also refuses to acknowledge my T-Mobile SIM. In fairness, I did not even insert a SIM for the first time (just got the phone) until the end of the process, but it shows as carrier locked which is significantly less than useful. I'll flash back to a TMO rom and put the SIM in to double check, but it's quite a bummer. Great job on the guide otherwise, though! It definitely did what it says on the tin; I have root and apart from the SIM lock which may be my fault somehow it works great.
Hey bud those links are no longer valid know where i can get them?

Thx for this tool, not just for the sake of it, but for the sake of us newbies being able to learn some basics from reading a batch file as well.

I have the Samsung drivers installed and USB debugging on, however, the bat file stays on "Waiting for device". Normally I would get a notification granting my comp privileges for the debugging but no dice.

I get the same unless i right click and run as admin but when i hit 2 (medium) then go i get the following?
UPDATE: Nevermind the reason adb commands were not running was due to the custom kernel i was using. switched kernels and the debloater worked fine.

If you plan on using this with the latest update GPG2, edit the .bat file and remove the last line for TmoWfcPrefs, this is needed to change wifi calling preferences.

OK, so I am dependent upon WiFI calling at work, and I did this, but maybe it's because I have an 11 month old or I don't know what but I must not have saved the BAT file correctly. anyway, I broke my WiFi calling.
- EDIT: it works if I turn it on with the quick icon - but if I go to settings, and click more networks, then click wifi calling it just crashes settings every time. any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Using a PC to root seems like moving backwards compaired to a 'one click' apk. but we're already at the PC to flash eng_boot, plus this new method is so much faster...so here we go
Features:
SuperSU 2.82
Init.d
Wifi fix
Flashlight fix
Issues:
For the wifi fix I just copied an edited J320a build.prop
So J320AZ users will see J320A in about device, and will have to reassign notification sounds. (Hope to fix it in the future)
Needed Files:
Odin
Root_J320A.zip
Procedure:
1. Unzip both files.
2. Run Odin click the 'AP' button.
3. Navigate to Root_J320A/bin and select sm-j320a_Engroot_601PJ2.tar and press "Start" (make sure NOT to check re-partition)
4. After it completes sucessfully, leave the phone hooked to the pc... and then wait, wait a good 2 or 3 minutes after its booted.
5. Once 2 or 3 minutes has gone by you can navigate to the Root_J320A folder.
6. There you'll see root.bat, double click that let it do its thing.
6a. If at any time during the script you see "adb out of date. killing..." hit the x to close the window and restart the script.
*This may work on J320AG models but make sure you check oem unlock from dev settings first... and let us know how it goes
Enjoy

I suggest you put 'root' in the tile, otherwise google cannot find it.
I googled 'j320a root', google only links to ashyx's post which doesn't... well maybe only mine phone.
I am new to this root bit.
Possibly I have done something wrong. I read your instructions carefully and quit didn't understand where the unzipped files should go. Do any of these have to be placed in the phone's directory?
Failed on my AT&T SM-J320A
I wonder if it has anything to do with the new update pushed out recently
@JeffF73
Run Odin and Click ap.
Navigate to the directory where you unzipped root_j320a.zip.
In that folder you'll see a bin folder, inside that is sm-j320a_Engroot_601PJ2.tar, which needs flashed to the phone.
Once that's complete, let it boot and wait.
Then run root.bat

Hello DamienMc Thank you for your reply and help. I figured it out. I had to put my phone in "Download Mode" by holding down Volume Down, Home Button and Power button while booting. Then I was able to use Odin without failing. This solved all my problems thank you

Yes, that has selinux set to permissive as well, although there's no real difference. The build.prop differences are noticable tho...I plan on doing an update to this, just have to figure out how to tell if it's A or AZ from adb

Yes, it works for QC1. However, you may need to replace build.prop in /bin from QC1 with WiFi fix before root.
I did notice that after root, the contents of /Android/data folders in both internal storage and external sd card are hidden from PC. Before root, both are visible from PC. Any thoughts about what cause the changes?
Will this work on July security patch?

Probably the eng_boot we use, it breaks the flashlight and wifi passwords too... it does work on j320a July update, so I assume it'll work on j320az update too

Reflash CSC as well, that'll wipe your device but fix your problem.
Are you sure you waited long enough after the phone booted before rooting?
If at any time during the script you see it say "adb server out of date. Killing..." something is wrong. You can x the command prompt and do root.bat again.

This was the first time i ever tried to root my phone and i followed the instructions located here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j3-2016/how-to/root-samsung-sm-j320a-galaxy-express-t3573628
Well my wifi wouldnt save any passwords , flashlight was broken and my ATT J320A would always want to boot in to recovery mode. I thought i was screwed!!!! Then i seen one link in the thread to this thread where Kingroot was not needed.
I opened Odin and gave a shot and then ran Root.bat file, and the device rebooted wifi and flashlight were fixed and best of all my J3 was now rooted!!!!!
Still working on getting rid of that annoying pop up but all is good, thanks so much for this root and fix from the other thread.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j3-2016/how-to/root-samsung-sm-j320a-galaxy-express-t3573628
Well my wifi wouldnt save any passwords , flashlight was broken and my ATT J320A would always want to boot in to recovery mode. I thought i was screwed!!!! Then i seen one link in the thread to this thread where Kingroot was not needed.
I opened Odin and gave a shot and then ran Root.bat file, and the device rebooted wifi and flashlight were fixed and best of all my J3 was now rooted!!!!!
Still working on getting rid of that annoying pop up but all is good, thanks so much for this root and fix from the other thread.

@james2ya If you are talking about the pop that either says something in the order of "Unathorized activities where made" go to the play store, download and install SecurityLogAgent Fix, Open it up and click "Disable Securitylogagent" then restart phone when it asks. This should help get rid of that popup.
works great for me! now i just need a custom rom. is it possible to install trwp on j320a?
