[Q}Can somebody give advice on... - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

I know this is gonna sound kinda noobish..>.< srry...so here goes.
I want to flash a custom recovery to gain root.. but i dont wanna lose all the progams,pics,etc on my phone ... Can somebody guide me to what program to use to back up everything so after im done and rooted with the process I can restore everything back?
I have superuser still on my phone but its denying access .. which is strange because i had to flash everything back to stock (recovery, and stock rom) because i bricked my phone somehow. . So ya, all i want is to just either get root and not lose my stuff.. its a pain getting everything back up again one by one.

also check your super user settings.
Maybe your default access is set to deny.
change it to prompt..
hope it helps you!

Thanks for the tip.. it does show prompt.. im just wondering how i got super user after installing a stock rom lol... man this is a bummer.. i dont wanna go always go back and forth deleting my apps just to get the software updates.. I know like on the Galaxy Note II with the tool-kit you can change from custom to stock recovery and note lose anything.. why is it so different with HTC? (

app on playstore

Another good one..
Clockworkmod rom manager (available in the play-store) Is also a great one to use. Even more so if you have CWM recovery installed..
There is also a really awesome toolkit that someone wrote for HTC. Just search the forum for "htc all in one tool kit" Very well put together, easy to use. Just about every step has very simple instructions that pop up.

Stock Nandroid Image

If anyone needs a stock nandroid image (with root),
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YWQJRO90
There is no need to flash this unless you messed up or just want to go back to stock (with root).
instructions:
DO NOT install it as update.zip . you are supposed to unzip the file after you download it and place the folder called 2010-09-21.18.31.12 in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup then you boot into cwm and goto backup and restore -> restore -> 2010-09-21.18.31.12
what is this nandroid ? stock image ? i mean im new to android and i keep seeing nandroid but im not sure what it does

Nandroid makes a complete backup of your phone, all your data, apps, everything. It's like it takes a snapshot of your phone, and when you restore it your phone will be back to the exact state of when you made the backup.
The image i posted will take your phone back to what it was like when you pulled it out of the package, except with root. In order to use nandroid, you have to flash the cwm kernel and install the recovery for your phone through rom manager.

ok well i tried to flash this with clockwork butttttttttttt it just freezes no luck ..what am i doing wrong
Ok, so I am getting my Fascinate tomorrow (can't wait by the way). I have been cruising the forums doing my research before I attempt to root, flash CWM recovery, etc. I am completely unfamiliar with with using Odin, but have used nandroid via Amon's recovery on my Droid Eris (which is running Froyo by the way).
Here's my question: how do I apply this image? Do I have to be rooted first, or can I go ahead and apply this zip and never have to fool with Oden? I just want to be sure I don't make a mistake. Eris development was firmly established by the time I arrived on the scene, so I have not had to worry about these kinds of things. Sorry if this seems like a noob question?

nope, the update is not compatible with root right now. Wait for a dev to release the root friendly vzw update.

I really appreciate the prompt response. I think I am going to wait until a dev develops a root friendly vzw update. Or I may go ahead and root and wait till then ..... decisions, decisions
I saw where you posted that some Sticky topics need to be compiled, wasupwithuman. I could not agree more. A couple more questions for you (maybe these will help someone else too) .... (1) How stable is CWM on the Fascinate? I read somewhere that it is a duct-taped together recovery that will do for now. Is this true??? (2) Should I just wait for a dev to develop a custom recovery (like Amon's on the Eris), or is CWM stable enough as it currently is? There seems to be some confusion about this from topic to topic. (3) This is unrelated, but has anyone confirmed Wireless Tether working on their Fascinate. I believe I read that it was somewhere else, but would like to know for sure. Thanks again!!!
P.S. - First link is down, but I found another guide on XDA and will probably just follow it (considering it uses adb which I am familiar with from my Eris).

Is there a way to fix my misstake?

Hi,
I flashed the new Build of CM9, i thought it was a normal ROM that you would flash like a another ROM, but then someone told me that i had to flash something called Gapps + fix, but since i can't access to market, or paste files to my phone i can't do so much.
I want to go back to my old rom (checkrom), but i didn't do any backup and i don't have the rom in my phone (i removed it). Please how can i solve this problem?
thanks
Never tried CM9, but if you haven't backed up and "removed" your previous ROM, you've lost all your data/settings.
Factory reset and clean install of checkrom seems to be your only option - please correct me if I'm wrong, CM9 people.
Advice - Never ever ever ever flash a new ROM without a backup - asking for trouble.
what happens when you put your phone in download mode and connect it to your pc with odin?

Please understand. When you're installing CM9, you cant access your phones memory, because you'll need a program from market, or you need to put a apk in your phone. But since i forgott to install Gapps together with this rom, now i don't have market, and i can't access my memory = This mean, i can't install my new rom.
So i need to know if there's another way to fix the mtp problem or what's called so i can put files to my phone.
thanks

I havn't tried that yet, but that should work. Do you mean i should install stock ROM from there, and then root phone again?
there is something called SDK, its for debugging and you can push apps on your phone with this!
Not sure how it works though, you should check out some guides first
You should still be able to boot into download mode and use Odin to flash a stock ROM.
Put your SGII into download mode by pressing the volume down button, the home button and the power button at once.

Answer - With difficulty becauseyou didn't do a backup
You didn't mention the mtp problem at all in your original post.
Doesn't matter which ROM you install, you should always do a backup, and I'm sure you know that..??
As said, if you don't do a backup, you're asking for problems. You didn't backup, you've got problems. Live and learn.
Lykke til.
This really is not that complicated, ..
Download the app "Android Commander" ... google it ...
Install it ...
Make sure debugging is on, on your phone ...
Run android commander , you now have a windows file manager that you can use to dump files to , or even double click to install apps to your phone ....
you cant just go back to checkrom from cm9.
you have to flash a stock rom via odin and root it again or flash prerooted via odin. then you can install new rom zips with cwm.
as far as i know you cant even use a normal backup when cyanogen is flashed. tried it on galaxy s when i started flashing, but it just doesnt work.
when going back from cyanogen you always have to flash stock with odin.

1. Flash a stock rom with Odin. 2. Start again with your flashing.
It's really basic knowlodge.

I think I bricked my I527

I can only get to Downloading Mode and Recovery Mode. Can somebody tell me what I can flash in Odin to get my device just back to fully stock with everything on it so I can just start completely over? I've tried 3 different things and it's just all gone to crap now. I don't know how to use Odin for the most part so I'll need step by step instructions. I'll pay whatever. I need my phone up and running.

you'll have to wait for a .tar file made for our phone
I think you can still recover it to stock by resetting it
get to recovery mode and chose wipe data do that at least 3 times
after that do a restart and it should be fine

I can speak as somebody in the same boat, wipe data doesn't work. I tried changing my dpi, so the build.prop is only modified file and that option does not work.
OP, did you modify something, or remove apps, or what? If you are down an app, get the sys dump from the other thread, pull it apart, and sideload through adb. might work, but adb does not mount system, so it might be an exercise in futility.
So there isn't even a stock rom available? What about flashing one for AT&T?
Here: Download the right Firmware for your carrier. Then flash with ODIN. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2461203
Unfortunately us I527 users will have to put up with stock ROM with Root until a dev chooses to support us.

Sad part is that none of those are for our device. I just need somebody to get me the stock firmware for our version and hopefully that's all I'll need.
well i see no official stock roms for i527 so maybe look at the few custom ones there are. thats only way to get your system partition restore and the core apps replaced that you removed.

Used Odin3 and redid that .tar file for my Build. All when good and got everything the same as a fresh phone, but booting up still has the Pad Lock Icon and Custom logo on it and SuperU Icon. So I cant seem to unroot it, Tried to use the I545ALL-IN-ONE-TOOL posted on these forums but cant get it to working.

That is what I used is the Saferoot, wasnt sure of the name, but just looked it up and thats what i have on my pc. Also I dont know how to flash it.. do I use the same Odin3 program for that? or is there another method.(Also is the Full wipe a different tar file?)

There are a few other methods...but I don't know them...I do know the other methods safety and security was questionable... Hence saferoot was made by trusted devs here...it should work...all the posts I have seen said they got successful root...did you open the supersu app that was installed and allow it to update binaries?... That is a very important step...if you did then make sure if you try this method again you follow each step it tells you...I don't know exactly how the process goes as I'm on4.2.2 and have to use the all in one tool for root...good luck...if it doesn't work hopefully someone who can help will chime in

No thats not it, I want to get a working Root that I can use GameCih or Gamekiller. What I get is "Root Privileges Needed" when ever I trying to choose a program.

Don't use gamekiller or gamecih - apparently they won't work on a SELinux enforcing-mode phone.

Nope, I have no idea what these applications do, but a quick search on the forums basically leads to the conclusion that they're not ready for 4.3.
Given the build you're running, you're stuck with SELinux Enforcing since you can't replace the kernel. You'll need to find something else to do whatever you're trying to do.

Seems like you need to install a new rom on your phone. Do you have a custom recovery? If yes, what recovery do you have?
I can give you a new rom and instructions on how to install it, but you will need CWM or TWRP for that.
Cheers,
Kuba P.

If you don't have any custom recovery then you want to flash stock rom of your android.

No matter bro I will flash with stock rom. Please tell me process and files to use. I never ever flashed before so this will be the first time for me. I will go with your process step by step. I have pc also but it will be better by my phone only.

You need to do some research before you make things worse. You will have to have a pc. Then it is a simple matter of flashing the device which will wipe it completely.

Watch these YouTube video. You get flashing procedure in SP flash tool and download link of stock rom in video description.
You need SP flash tool to flash your android.
Download from here
Sorry for saying this , but you should be aware that Rooting a device has its own ups and down/
You should have researched more and must have had a custom recovery incase things go awry.
Now that things have gone bad , the only option you have is flash a rom for your device using SP Flash Tool.
Google for your phone model and download firmware and flash the rom
If you have any trouble finding a rom or flashing it , please feel to contact me.

Download the above file , extract it and follow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3bxYYX9Xk8
Make sure you have driver for your device installed properly.
Guys Thanks a lot. I have successfully flashed my phone with SP tools. It has been a great experience for me as I did it for the first time even I was really excited. I really knew it that u guys help will really work. Thanks once again and love u all. Now I wont dare to flash my phone with custom rom well I will install CMW first haha
lesson learned.
