Hello everyone!
Actually I am on stock Android, version 4.3, without root, bootloader onlock, etc. So it's untouched.
Now I would like to flash the following mod:
[MOD][NEXUS 4][4.3 + 4.2.2][DEODEX + ODEX][STOCK ROM] 1% Battery Mod
I want to do it with Mobile ODIN Pro. Before that, I was planing to root my Nexus with the Nexus Root Toolkit.
Do I need to unlock the bootloder as seen in the screenshot? Or is just a root sufficient?

Thank you very much in advance!
Does Mobile Odin even work with the Nexus 4? I was under the impression it mostly for Samsung products.
Why not root, install custom recovery and flash with custom recovery?
I want to get the OTA updates from google. It is not possible with a custom recovery. Is there another away? I just need this one mod.
Take the SystemUI.apk out and manually replace each battery icon in the correct folder.

Do I need a root for it? (noob question)
I read something about a possibility to load into recovery, install things and after a reboot the recovery should be deleted automatically. Or did I get something wrong?

You will need root to get to SystemUI.apk (you might be able to pull with ADB but I'm not 100% sure.
A custom recovery will not delete itself.
You can't replace the ROM installed at time of locking with another or you get a black screen. And I don't think mobile Odin is for nexus 4 being a Samsung program.

You can also use the toolkits to bring up a custom recovery temporarily without actually flashing it, so you can keep your stock recovery.

I rooted it, flashed a custom recovery and installed the mod. If google releases an update, I will flash it manually. No need for OTA Updates.
Thank you very much!

I went to replace framework-res.apk, and now it wont go past samsung logo, please tell me I didn't brick my phone?
Please Help [email protected][email protected]!
What did you flash?, theme kernel? Be specific
I went to flash some circular battery mod, and then it crashed and won't boot.
Never mind. Do you have cwm installed? if so, flash a rom that matches the one you are on. That'll fix that issue. Next time don't flash something that isn't for the rom version that you are on.
Specifially I renamed it framework-re.apk.bak, and then about to replace it it won't boot.
Which rom version are you on? DL09? DJ05? DI01?
Dont have cwm installed, did it through root explorer.
You probably flashed a file that wasn't compatible with our phone, or isn't compatible with the ROM you're running (DI01 mod on DJ05/DL09). Reflash the ROM you're running and it should fix the problem.
Just flash the rom that you are on again.
So there's no way out? I have to loose all my data?
Also next time flash a theme that it's compatible to your rom version.
You don't have to wipe!
you can flash dj05 theme on top of dl09, but remember to flash the dl09 theme fix.

If you flash the same rom you're on now, you don't have to wipe data.
I'm going to win imnuts...
But doesn't odin delete all data?

By any chance, did you make a backup of your old framework-res.apk?
And what version are you on? DI01, DJ05, DL09?
If you have Clockwork, you can use ADB to push a new framework to your phone. Just reboot into recovery, connect to your computer and open up a command prompt (on Windows):
adb push framework-res.apk system/framework/framework-re
Here's mostly stock versions of the framework:
DI01
DJ05/DL09 (works for either, but you have to rename to framework-res.apk)
The only difference in these is that I did my own little battery mod:

}
If you had a theme installed, this will probably screw it up, reverting most stuff back to stock, but hopefully it'll at least get you booting again.
If I reboot into normal samsung recovery will adb work?
I am just gonna reflash with odin..........

Not sure if ADB works with the stock recovery, I'm using a Voodoo kernel, so the stock recovery is gone.
But if you're flashing with Odin, you could just flash Clockwork recovery and then boot to it and use ADB. Might as well get Clockwork on your phone... with a backup, you could have been back up in just a few minutes.
Wow, this is a fascinating thread with so much confusion.
My Nexus 4 is on stock 5.1.1 (unlocked bootloader).
Yesterday, I though it's time to root it.
Installed latest version of TWRP using (fastboot flash recovery twrp.img).
Then I downloaded Superuser (koush) from here and flashed it.
Now I have the superuser app but it doesn't work. It keeps asking me to update binaries and when I hit "Recovery Install" nothing happens.
How do I fix this?
Thanks in advance

But how do I uninstall Superuser?
It's a system app. That would require a root explorer to remove but then again, my root doesn’t work

Then just flash SuperSu and then remove the other one. You will get notification from SuperSu that this app (superuser) may cause conflict with this or something like that but just ignore that and install( in case you don't flash zip in recovery wich i recommend)

Are there any custom recoveries out there for our s7 edge t mobile? I have it rooted now but are there any recoveries? I have been searching and had no luck.
Nope

No there arent. To flash stuff you need to download flashfire from the play store. It works just like twrp but it's a app. When you want to flash something you will select the plus sign in the bottom right corner and select zip. It's super easy to use
Thought i had found a recovery for some odd reason, and it was def. Exynos twrp. There a way to flash the stock recovery img? Im thinking of flashing through flashfire but im afraid after flashing it actually wouldnt wipe since there seems to be no recovery, only a download mode menu, whilst saying recovery booting.

I personally haven't tried but if you want to risk bricking go for it. If it's any comfort, I doubt anything will happen. Worse case scenario is that it installs, you trip Knox and unable to mount the system partition and won't be able to boot it up. But even then... Odin should still be possible. But again... I wouldn't risk it. I'm fairly sure that it's been tried. There is a QC version of the recovery somewhere that never worked via Odin back in June or so.
I personally was the first to attempt flashing twrp via flashfire. it will not work. DM-Verity kicks in and will not allow it to load. you get a BRIEF flicker of twrp loading up and it loads the failed integrity check. the good news was i was able to flash the stock files and got it loading again with no KNOX trip or errors.

Hey strangers,
Does anyone got any ideas about recovering this phone wihtout wiping it's data? It's supposed to have ADB enabled, but it won't boot to OS.
Video:
I would prefer to get to backup it, but recovery is unacessable and Download mode most likely works but it's not 100% sure.

Have you tried flashing a custom recovery ??
TWRP tar through Odin.

Haven't yet, but should I be able to just fix the bootloader and it should work? If yes, how should it be done? Backup first though, probably.
Bootloaders in the bootloader and modem threads.
I have flashed the OS fully to the phone, but now it's in a bootloop trying to go to recovery which for some reason does not work neither does flashing TWRP as it stil won't boot to the recovery.
Does anyone happen to have a PIT file for this device?
Exact model: SM-N9005 (International version)

your using the Binary 9 like me... i scoured the net for custom roms but to no avail. So in short, theres no root for G935PVPS9CSB1 we need to wait for the TWRP to find a root way or something. to get rid of the soft brick just flash the stock recovery OFW in odin. all you need is the 'AP_....' file . here is the link[ https://fws04.updato.com/GALAXYS7EDGE/SM-G935P/SPR/SM-G935P_1_20190208104514_im5a3nxxn5_fac.zip"] after that just wait patiently
