Tips for Hacking Android Devices

  1. Never flash, root, or hack your Android device unless it has more than 80% battery life.
  2. Ensure you have at least an hour to flash or hack your Android device and always have access to a computer.
  3. Always make a Nandroid backup before flashing anything to your Android, just in case.
  4. Research thoroughly. Read numerous forums and watch instructional videos before attempting any modifications. If you don’t understand something, you might make mistakes.
  5. Remember to express gratitude to those who help you, including developers and fellow enthusiasts.
  6. Every Android device is unique, with its own set of tricks and potential issues, so study up accordingly.
  7. Learn how to return the device to its stock condition before attempting any hacking—whether that involves SBF, AP fastboot, FX, Odin, or ADB file transfers.
  8. The Android community is a welcoming place; there are no stupid questions.
  9. Make sure you know all the device information in the settings before hacking, including the model number, Android version, build number, and more.
  10. The most common problem during rooting or using a utility is driver installation. Download and run the driver install files, then connect your device to your PC. Enable USB debugging in the device settings (usually under developer options). Additionally, ensure the Android device is set to all available USB modes, which can be adjusted in the notification bar. If issues persist, use a program like USBDeview for driver uninstallation and reinstallation. You can find it on the My Downloads page.

  1. I have a Verizon Galaxy SCH 1545 running Android 4.4.2 – Baseband 1545VRUFNK1 Kernal 3.4.0 I am trying to root the phone. If I connect the phone to my Computer through USB, no problem; the computer see the phone. If I put the phone into downloading, the computer does not recognize it. I get the sound USB makes and Odin see it, but the computer does not and if I try to flash the old Kernal, it fails. If I pull the USB is sounds and Odin shows it as Removed. I have tried different cables and ports. Please help.

  2. Hello Wizards of Android, ever done a hard reset for a G Slate LGV909DW for a forgotten password? Following the usual protocol: powering off, then holding either volume down, up or both along with power button doesn’t give results. #ataroadblockrightaboutnow. THANKS in advance for any solution anyone can offer

      • Seems that most are bugging. I really don’t remember removing any apps. Just froze. What is best way to make sure all system apps are installed. Thanks. Love your website
