Has anyone tried changing the .ISO file that mounts when you are tethered for a different one? I'm wondering if you can load a bootable diagnostic cd and boot a pc via the dinc.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Xda
The ISO only launches in Windows. It requires the Incs drivers to be loaded. So no booting anything.

I wrote an article on that.
Ahh, So i'm not alone

Unfortunately you cannot boot off the iso, but it does mount in Linux to (Have not tested OSX)

I'm guessing it is actually the Incredible acting as USB mass storage and not a CD-ROM. Give the guide I linked to earlier a try and see if you can get your computer to boot of a small Linux distro or something.

Update script that should delete that for you. Built it earlier as a patch for my rom, but ended up including it in the newest version.
Dial ##7764726##
Then password = 000000
Then choose Feature Settings
Then CD ROM set to disable.
Then Menu key
Then Commit Modifications.
You probably get an error nothing changed.
This is the best way to do it instead of removing the CDROM.ISO file.
First of All, thanks to developers for keeping us trouble free by working and modifications for our mobiles.

dear, you problem has been solved or not. if not, than kindly tell me so that i could dig into this.

link not working very well. DL stalls.
Hello,
I was trying to edit my note 3 settings.db file to add the MobileData toggle at the notification panel.
After I edited the file, I rebooted the phone and Now I am stucked at the Tmobile 4G lte screen.
I have saved the original settings.db file so I can replace the modified one but the problem is that now that the phone doesn't turn on I can't replace it.
Is there anyway to fix this without installing everything from zero again???
Thank You
P.s
I tried to boot in safe mode but the phone doesn't boot even like this.
I tried to wipe cache, but nothing changed
As for the recovery mode, I can boot there
Boot to recovery and use adb console from your pc to swap the files. Learn some Linux command line commands if you don't know how. Primarily you will use cp target.file destination . file. Make a backup if you want via mv.

Any help will be very appreciated as I never worked with Linux.
My original files are located at Downloads folder of my device.
and the files that I changed are located at /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/
What command should I use to copy settings.db from downloads to the databases location
Thnx again for your reply
Cheers
I am trying something like this:
adb push /sdcard/downloads/settings.db sdcard/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/
But I am getting error:closed
Maybe I am entering the paths on the wrong way

Another question, as I am not managing to over pass this error close message from adb.
If I install 4.4.2 again from download mode will I lose my settings, applications and everything else that I have installed before???
Odin doesn't wipe anything, but the re install would overwrite much of your personalizations. Boot into recovery, do a nandroid backup, then boot into download and Odin and restore. When you're up again, download nandroid manager from play store and select what you want to restore from your nandroid backup you made. Be sure to save it in a persistent partition, external SD if possible.

Newroot work with all kitkat firmwares but doesn't work with latest kitkat *after 108) .133, .157... firmware or with old JB firmwares!!!
If your running later kernels from out of 108 and newer firmware that you can achieve root following these steps:
1. download the .108 firmware or kernel only
2. flash only the .108 kernel using flashtool
3. Use newroot
4. Reflash back your newer kernel using flashtool

Thanks a lot! It works!
Nobody mention models or what kind of rom does this program root why? is very funny no real data, any one with solid comments about models and rom versions?
Sorry if I'm rude but I think we need some info like what firmware version works with this root or any prerequisite should we have before rooting like bootloader being unlocked etc. Also a simple tutorial would be nice for newbies to avoid confusion. Ill test this out on the latest firmware [.108] on an unlocked bootloader and I will report if this is working.
Its booth for locked on unlocked bootloaders but for no already rooted devices (except rooted by our tool), its tested on last 3 android versions. There is 2 things, it can work or not work, you can try in jellybean and let me know (probaly not working). No more words here since tool is very easy and anybody know what to do with them Enjoy if you found them usefull and easy! Anybody can post detail installation here if allready used my aplication, I am lazy sory!
So I just tested it out and it works. So I figured out, why not just make a tutorial video since it's so simple. Here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06S9GUL9U5s
I enabled USB Debugging and Unknown Sources just to be sure.
No need unknown source since usb debuging is enought! Is not easy? I think very easy Did you tried my recovery after rooting, I just want to know how its working on z1, (you need to press volume button after blue led blink to enter into recovery)
It's really easy to root now. Just 1 click. CWM works too. Here's more proof that it works. Good work man

How can I upgrade to a newer software? Can I change to global rom?
I don’t have a windows computer and most guides seems to require windows. Also I don't want a custom rom.
Alternatively, how can I get native update function the to work?

Well, without a pc you have less options, users of miui are on nougat (beta) but in your case must be sure of these things; download (easier) an app from playstore about developer options, open and check at USB debugging, allow, now download a global version from official Miui page for Hydrogen (device name) must be in .zip format and try going to /settings/about device/system update you`ll see four dots upper right and option "select update package", navigate to your downloaded file and try to flash
Thanks. So I downloaded it, went to updater and chose the file, and it says couldn't verify update package.
Tried to download to recovery mode, but then I just get to a screen with the symbol to connect USB cable to computer.

If from this option doesn`t flash your zip either do from mi recovery. Version for China probably is from a phone company if you live there. You need a pc at least to install TWRP (it takes two minutes) and from here you must install last version official beta v8 7.1.19 but you need unlock bootloader
So this is not possible to do with a MAC? what about the terminal commands, can I install a rom from the CLI ?

I know this isn't the quickest workaround, but if you're stuck on a Mac you can always bootcamp it for free. Just download Windows 10 (around a 5GB download I think) and install via bootcamp. You don't need a serial to officially install or run WIndows 10 and you can just remove the installation when you're finished.

You can use other advance phone (cause this will be busy) like a viewfinder of .img in your computer, with an app from Play Store called DriveDroid, you place some .img in your sdcard and to arrange computer select usb (it`s like a virtual machine) or burn an image in a usb with a linux distro, here is a rescue cd that contain a virtual Windows XP called Hiren`s Boot (500 mb aprox.) but really I don`t know if all that works on a mac.

I tried using fastboot commands on mac to to update, but didn't work.
I guess I'll have to stick with 7.5.10 until I get a new phone.
However wonder why the OTA update doesn't work.

What did you type in fastboot?, zip version is not for fastboot, must be download correct version, but go for the first step, probably you must
unlock bootloader, request to xiaomi, sometimes you got it in 6 hours, depends, probably device is rooted, for this reason don't update ota. Here you have other thread to apply fastboot with other method https://forum.xda-developers.com/an.../live-iso-adb-fastboot-driver-issues-t3526755
tried both the flash all except storage.sh and the flashboot flash system commands. it said device it locked. I applied to unlock bootloader, no reply yet, but does that also require a Windows program to unlock the bootloader?
Device is not rooted, but I installed google play, maybe that's what broke the OTA

No, Google Play can't do that. In my little corner of the world we say "all the roads lead to Rome", I think you need a pc, There is other shorter way of two steps root first with a pc and then download from Google Play an app called "flashfire" you may flash a zip rom from this app. Also you may use a virtual cd or usb with a linux distro like ubuntu or debian running on your mac to arrange computer like a live cd or usb without install on your mac or if you prefer install it on your mac, there's a world of options just root device and can flash any you want and be the real owner of your phone
