[Q] Unlocking the Bootloader for Shield Tablet android 5.0.1 lollipop topic

I recently bought a Wifi Shield tablet and love it. However I do not like the small space of the internal memory. I upgraded it to android 5.0.1 so that I could move games and apps to the SD card but some stuff does not support this (Grand theft Auto SA and Vice City are using a lot of my limited space). I was told by a friend that if I rooted it I could move everything to the SD card if I wanted. However to do this I have to unlock the bootloader and the XDA fourm says I will lose everything!:crying: I don't see the point of this tablet if I can't stream my steam games to it and I don't want to lose support of the Stylus as well. What I would like to know is

1. If I root my Shield can I move all apps and games to the SD card if I need to free up space for something new?

2. If I unlock the bootloader will lose the shield apps like the Hub, DirectStylus features, Trine 2, etc... ? I don't care if I have to re-download the apps I put on it. That would not be to much work for me.

If anybody could help answer these question for me, I would greatly apreciate it. I just do not want to break my new toy.:D

Unlocking SM-T217S Galaxy Tab 3 Sprint. topic

I have the MSL code but when I put a sim card in for ATT and reset the device it says invalid sim card. I never get an option to enter the code in to unlock the device for another carrier. I am stock firmware not rooted. I actually tried loading ATT stock firmware on to the tablet and that didn't work at all. I can't take it to sprint because the person I bought it from is not in good standing with them.

Any help would be awesome!

Hardware approach to unlocking the S5's boot loader? topic

Yo, so I've been reading up on JTAGs and Reset Glitch Hacks on the 360 and all that good stuff. What really caught my eye was the RGH cause it was hardware dependent. Would there be a way to do this on the S5 as well?

Need help SIM unlocking topic

Unlocking the bootloader without fastboot and without wiping topic

Hi all,

A few of us are working to unlock the bootloader of the Nexus 6 without using fastboot (similar to what we've done with past Nexus devices in this thread), and it would help us greatly if a few of you could contribute. All we need is two dumps of your "sp" partition -- once when your bootloader is unlocked, and once when it is locked.

For those that have already unlocked their bootloader would be willing to help out, here is how to do it:

1) With the bootloader unlocked, dump the sp partition by typing in the following command (either via an adb root shell, or in a terminal emulator in Android with root):

Code:

---

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sp of=/sdcard/sp-unlock.img

---

2) Reboot into the bootloader and re-lock your bootloader (using fastboot), then re-dump the partition (again, using an adb root shell or in a terminal emulator with root):

Code:

---

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sp of=/sdcard/sp-lock.img

---

3) Flash back the unlocked sp image so that your bootloader returns to being unlocked without wiping anything:

Code:

---

dd if=/sdcard/sp-unlock.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sp

---

4) Post those two images in this thread.


Thanks!

[Q] Help for unlocking all LTE bands topic

When I try unlocking sprint M8 following the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...ds-to-t2886059
I find a problem. Changing NV 1877 to any value will cause the phones can't connect to any network, either GSM or CDMA.
I have another Verizon's M8. Same operation takes different result. Changing to a correct value won't cause error. The phone will connect to the right bands assigned by the value.
Is there any one can help me to resolve this question?

[Q]. Unlocking = Total loss of support?? topic

I have the Pure Edition running on T Mobile and I bought this phone with the plan to unlock/root. After talking with Moto support I was surprised to hear that simply requesting a code not only voids your warranty (which I expected) but they won't even service it for a fee. In addition they told me it would completely nullify your extended Moto warranty if you bought one.

Is this really true?? I want to unlock but it scares me to know that even physical warranty problems such as a peeling wood veneer would no longer be covered.

Sim Unlocking S5 topic

I've tried to sim unlock a Galaxy S5 twice so far.

Once with hot.kg, an Ebay seller.
The seller refunded my money and said the unlock code came back as not found, I just checked the listing again, and I noticed that the price went up to twice what it was before, and in the listing it says Samsung's server is down till Jan 7.

And the other time with UnlockUnit.com
I paid for the unlock 3 days ago, I paid extra to receive the unlock code in less than 10 hours. It's been 3 days. I've emailed them twice and both times I receive a generic email about there being delays and Samsung's server being down till Jan 2nd.


Can anyone recommend a service that will actually get me my unlock code in a timely manner?

screen looks horrible after unlocking topic

First I would like to say I'm a pretty picky person...that being said I strangely have no problems with the quality of my screen ..no banding issues..very vibrant warm colors..not the brightest whites but hey..its amoled not ips..now that I have the back story done..let me explain

I recently unlocked and rooted and flashed my n6...now the screen looks horrible very grainy and blotchy..almost like when u boot into safe mode on a PC and the resolution is horrible..not that bad but similar..I thought maybe it was the ROM because compressing certain things can affect image quality but I even flashed back to google stock images and it is still the same..searched and found nothing..any help is appreciated..I honestly think its more of a software issue but not sure..I will be editing and uploading pics shortly

[Q] Is it possible to root 5.0.1 without unlocking the bootloader? topic

Title pretty much says it all. I upgraded to 5.0.1 w/o realizing I'd loose root. I don't really want to unlock my bootloader but I sure would like root for various apps like Tasker, Titanium Backup, etc.

Unlocking I747MVLUFNK2 (Canadian 4.4.2) topic

Hi! Stupid as I am, I updated a ROM to stock 4.4.2 and now I need to switch from Koodo to something else...problem is, that nothing works for this ROM.

I have succesfully rooted the ROM, but I believe it doesn't help anything right? I thought that flashing some custom ROM would solve the issue, but after doing some googling it seems it has nothing to do with that, right? What are my other options? Preferably free options... :)

Thx
