About 3 minutes. Check the correctness of the installation ADB drivers.

Yes, B528 made ​​with ROOT ... already with the app `s all reinstated by Titanium ...
It took a good few minutes to install the drivers that drew the net, but then was quick and without any problem.
EDIT: Do not know if I can help with anything: Professional 64Bit Win7
I was trying on a phone from a friend of mine. He was using winxp 32 bit, maybe that's the case...
Can youplease share with us the drivers you used?

[Q] Rooting Official 2.3

I have this V100R001C00B528G001-version which is the newest and came out 2.3.2012. It works very nice, but cant root with superoneclick2.3.3(stuck in step#7, cant mount and stuff) or GingerBreak. Has anyone got rooted, help me how? thanks
You need to modify the boot.img firstly (modify the default.proc, change "ro.secure=1" to "ro.secure=0") and use fastboot tool to flash it to phone.

[Q] Rooting with SuperOneClick 2.3.3

Hi everyone,
I've got a problem trying to root my Ideos X5 using SuperOneClick.. Everywhere I look, it looks so straightforward. I simply don't know why it doesn't work.
I have downloaded/installed the Android ADB driver, and run SOC as admin and all I get up to is Step 5.
No hangs. Just nothing. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Please help.. Thanks.
Which firmware you have?
Sent from my U8800 using Tapatalk 2

I've seen it myself, It simply stops working. Solution in my case: I forgot to enter the magic dialingnumbers:
---
On your Ideos V5, dial *#*#2846579#*#*
Go to projectmenu > background settings > log settings > log switch > set Log on
Reboot the Phone
Go to Settings > Applications > Development and enable USB Debuggingmode
Go to Settings > Applications and disable Fast Bootmode.
Run superoneclick.

hope this helps...

I tried that but still nothing..

I screwed up I think

So this morning I was fiddling with my Galaxy S5 (SM-G900W8). I was trying out those secret dialing codes because I kept getting a MMI error.
So anyway I launch up *#4636#* and I select "TURN OFF RADIO" and "TURN ON SMS OVER IMS" as per this website guide http://www.technobezz.com/fix-connection-problem-invalid-mmi-code/
As soon as I did that, my network was shut off and I tried re enabling it but it still won't turn back on. I tried factory reset, firmware install through Kies, took it to Telus, who didn't know what was wrong with it. I tried re entering my APN settings, selecting any Network in settings tells me "Your SIM won't allow connections to this network" even the network I am on (Telus)
I tried changing CSC, I am currently downloading firmware to flash in Odin, hoping that works.
But can anyone give me suggestions? I feel like since I just switched a setting, I should be able to turn one back on.
EDIT: Flashing official firmware in Odin did not work.

First, no need to screw up with those things such as changing APN or CSC...
I have turned off radio and then turned it on without problem.
So you can try to turn it on again.
Can you show the screenshots of it?

It actually says "Turn off Radio" every time I reboot so it seems to turn on that setting anyway. Which does nothing.

1- Got a question: in the 2nd screenshot, why it showed a full list of bands (Automatic/EURO/USA/Japan...), while in the 4th screenshot, the list is empty? In my device the list is always empty (as in your 4th screenshot), I don't know why.
2- If you have root, install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Secret Codes' > *#197328640# > 'Launch 0' > BASIC INFORMATION (capture screenshot #1) > Menu - Back > NAS INFORMATION > MM INFORMATION (capture screenshot #2) > Menu - Back > MM REJECT CAUSE (capture screenshot #3).
3- If you don't have root, open the dialer > *#0011# (capture screenshot #1) > Menu - Back > Menu - Key Input > Q0 > wait... > DEBUG SCREEN > NAS INFORMATION > MM INFORMATION (capture screenshot #2) > Menu - Back > MM REJECT CAUSE (capture screenshot #3).
And post these 3 screenshots for more investigation.

If Radio is turned on, I get no options to select.
If Radio is turned off, I get those options, none which work.
Screenshot 1 - http://i.imgur.com/OBQc4IQ.png
Screenshot 2 - http://i.imgur.com/G5K7VZk.png
My screen didn't have a MM REJECT CAUSE menu and my phone doesn't let me press back to get to previous menus, so I took a pic of SIM INFORMATION to see if that helps. http://i.imgur.com/zvpKfyh.png

The network has considered your phone as a illegal device and refused service either because an identity of the phone is not acceptable, or because the phone does not pass the authentication check. I dont know why. It should be a false positive report.

I Fixed it!
I kept messing around in ServiceMode and finally found the setting to get my network back. It was NV settings that I reset under PROTOCOL. Told me to reboot and voila my LTE was back. SMS and calling didn't work so I factory reset and now everything is working fine. I knew my SIM was fine and my EMEI was fine. I knew it was something I could change myself.
Thank you for the help man. I am now going to never install that Phone info app again unless I have other problems lol.

[Q] Where are the NFC Advanced Settings Galaxy S5 Lollipop?

I have a NFC door lock , I need to change the NFC Processing Method but I do not have advanced settings in the menu. Even though when I click help on the device itself and select tap and pay it says for the help category it says:
To change your default processing method, go to setings > NFC > Advanced Settings.
Which NFC isn't even it's own menu off settings. I have been in developers setting and other went through the other settings and I am not finding it.
Anyone have any idea where it is? The lock developers says I have to change it from sim card to the android operation system in the settings.
This is what they gave me but it doesn't match up on the Verizon edition.
•Samsung S5 - Settings > Connections > NFC > Advanced settings (top right button) > Change NFC Processing Method == SE SIM Card // Android operating system. Change to Android operating system
Thanks
Mine has the advanced settings with SE SIM card & Android operating system options enabled by default... Not sure but try to clear the app data of your settings from Application manager. If it's still not there try maybe flashing another ROM(official or custom).
I tried clearing the app data and still nothing. I have the latest update from Verizon on the phone, so I don't run a custom rom.
Probably verizon had it disabled on their ROMs? I know most carriers are known for disabling specific phone features.
