ODIN - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Is it possible to run odin in linux. I have the stock file with the pit file that i used in windows to restore stock using odin and it reformat and reparations and goes through restore process. i dont have windows anymore. i never de bloated and i did use saferoot and the busybox pro and selected smart install when i updated busybox so i don't know what all smart install does so i can be able to remove all the changes that busybox pro smart install did. if i cant use odin in linux than what all commands to remove all of what safe root and busybox smart install did. i remember i saw a set of commands listed in here to do an full unroot after rooting with safe root and then i remember it said after running the commands than use supersu app to do the rest of the full unroot. is there also commands that also do remove all the changes that busybox pro smart install did? if i can get all the commands to do all of what i asked that that would work for me if i cant get odin working in linux.

I don't believe odin is linux compatible. Try heimdall

[Q] Lost root access

Hi!
I´m still using CM7 alpha2 since it seems that it onlys uses MTP to copy files and I ´m using a Mac OSX.
The thing is recently I tried to download an app that requires root access, but after installing I cannot use it.
Then I tried to use the isntalled apps that require root access and noe of them work.
I tried to find a thread that coud help me but so far no luck.
Can someboy explain please how to regain root access in my Touchpad?
By the way I have seen threads of other devices where the answer involve something terminal commands started with adb shell.
I use the terminal and bash all the time but I don´t know if I need to download/install some additional software?
Thanks!
sounds like there is something wrong with the superuser app.
Anyway the ICS roms use MTP for file transfer.
i don't think the touchpad needed root access to my mind it's gotta be the SU app or some sort of file/binary related to it

[Q] Semi-bricked hdx

So...some mistake in update-script with setperm on stock slot and now I have a device:
- device is turning on
- clean, pure unregistered stock firmware
- adb work (pull/push)
- adb shell/install doesn't work (bin/sh not found)
- adb backup/restore doesn't work
- i have no safestrap (its missing after unsuccessful flashing)
- com.amazon.dcp.apk renamed, so future ota doesnt help
- wifi bluetooth doesn't work (no mac-address)
- I can copy files to/from sdcard
- i have su and daemonsu in /xbin (maybe....)
Any method to install apk ? Something like "file:///sdcard.1apk" like other android device, or maybe through silk debugging I could make same html-code to access sdcard? or fastboot flashing something to restore to stock. If I could install safestrap or es file explorer its would be great...
Thanks. Sorry my English.

As a note and just to clear it up a little, should someone find this while researching. When i was looking for this command and found the answer elsewhere, it wasn't quite clear on where the APK was taken from. It's from the system you issue the command from, not the device where you want the APK to be installed.
So for example. If you have the APK on your harddrive (D:\) in windows, you would issue this command in the command line:
adb install D:\APK_to_be_installed.apk
Adb install doesn't work, I already write this.

S4, rooted, Safe, Titanium, busy, ect...but now I can not use adb or pc to view phone

I have everything working with root, Safestrap, busy, SuperSU, and Selinux.
I now have the ability to add/switch roms.....
Prior to this, I updated my SDK's, installed Samsung USB and was able to use ADB to sideload apks. I was also able to see my SD card via USB cable to my computer. But...since I installed Selinux, which then got my Safestrap v3.73 to work and create a recovery, I can no longer plug the phone into my computer's USB. When I do, nothing shows up...at one point...I uninstalled Selinux, but then the phone would reboot when plugged into the PC. I re installed Selinux, and can now get the phone to connect to the USB PC without rebooting. But I can no longer see the phone or SD card.
Any suggestions....fix permissions in SS?....or something else....

You can try downloading and installing es file explorer from the play store and making your root files visible.

I ended up doing it with adb and terminal emulator and about 6 lines of code. It removed the safestrap boot.
So...now I have root, and what ever else I want...but I am not sure I want to give safestrap another go....
What I would love to do is be able to install "I545VRUFNC5_enable_tether.zip" with so other program that will allow me to install a zip. This zip does contain an apk, but it also includes some binary as well as script, so I don't think it will install with just extracting the apk.
Any suggestions....

If you're.on NC5 then safestrap.is.your only option. Unless there is some other way to install a zip that I'm not aware of but I have never read anything that even alludes to that possibility. Though I could be wrong

[Q] Installing Rom To Soft-Bricked Device

Hi everybody.
I have a tablet with General Mobile E-tab 4. It has been soft-brick when I install a custom rom. I guess it has been such, I removed the cable without the process is completed. I'm sure to I installed correct rom because previously I installed same rom to some model devices. I can access to the device with ADB but I haven't root access. I can use busybox because the rom includes busybox. But I can't install rom, like as I said, device hasn't root. When I enter "su" command, it says "file not found". I tried many tool to root device but none didn't work. When I tried "dd" command in busybox (it to install rom), it says you haven't writing permission.
I don't know why, fastboot doesn't work.
Also, the device hasn't external sd card slot.
How can I root or can I install rom to the this device? Please help.

Tried to r00t Acer iconia table (didn't worked) Now I need to remove su binaries.How?

I tried to root Acer B3-A10 tablet with Kingo Root.
Root is unsuccessful, however there are still file su binary files in /system/bin, /system/xbin etc.
Now I cannot enter PokemonGo 0.37 as it detects su binaries.
How can I remove those su files without having root to do it on Android?
Is it possible on Windows, Linux via shell? How?
I cannot find Linux drivers, just USB drivers for Win 7, 8 :/
I also cannot find stock rom that should be ACER_AV0L0_B3_A10_1.007.00_WM_GEN1.
Any help?
Thanks
Do you have custom recovery? You could root that way then install SuperSU and use the full unroot option. This is how I keep playing .37 and can still switch to rooted when I need it.
I dont have custom recovery or any kind of file to flash ...
