Tips for Hacking Android
- Never flash, root, or hack your Android device unless it has more than 80% battery life.
- Ensure you have at least an hour to flash or hack your Android device and always have access to a computer.
- Always make a Nandroid backup before flashing anything to your Android, just in case.
- Research, research, research. Read numerous forums and watch instructional videos before attempting any modifications. If you don’t understand it, you might make mistakes.
- Remember to express gratitude to those who help you, including developers and fellow enthusiasts.
- Every Android device is unique, with its own set of tricks and potential issues, so study up accordingly.
- 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.
- The Android community is a welcoming place; there are no stupid questions.
- Make sure you know all the device information in the settings before hacking, including the model number, Android version, build number, and more.
- 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 My Downloads page or watch this video.
That’s what I thought. Alrighty thanks for confirming it for me.
I recently bought another turbo (xt1254) and it has the latest update. I’ve been working hard to downgrade it by flashing stock firmware (batch) But keep coming up empty handed, and I tried rsd lite, it keeps saying “incorrect XML file” or something like that. Everything has been a dead end. I have one last idea, and that’s Verizon software assistance. But before I run the repair, will it actually reinstall the original stock firmware, or will it just reinstall su4tl-49?
it will install the latest software and will not downgrade
Question: I just got a Kindle Fire 5th gen with Fire OS 5.1.4. I used your SuperTool to root it but I would like to change the ROM. I notice your SuperTool has an option to boot to a TWRP recovery but only if the Fire OS is at 5.0.1. I’ve found the firmware file to downgrade the OS to 5.0.1 but I don’t know how to flash it. Could you tell me how?
you cant if you try and downgrade below 5.1.2 you will hard brick the device you need to use flash fire app to flash custom roms
Hello rootjunky, ive watched almost all your videos on frp bypass for android and i believe there is a new security patch. The first problem i had was getting to the files after i downloaded your apk (dual window isnt opening). When i found my way to files i needed to allow unknown sources, which is now grayed out. Im using an up to date LG stylo. Any tips would help, thanks!
