I've lost FTP root access with firmware 1119 but still have local backups of the apps I want.

Is there no other way of getting these on to the Samsung? Can I use Sammy Widgets to achieve that?

Many thanks.

Did you actually lose any apps when you upgraded to the new firmware? Normally they stay in place during an upgrade so you only need root access if you want to add, replace or update them, or of course if you've performed a factory re-set and lost all your settings.

Thanks for replying.

Actually the set died at the weekend and I had to replace it. Either the new one already had 1119 or it did an automatic upgrade on first use . I didn't think ahead to deny it wifi access. So no, I don't have any of the apps I would like on the new set.

Stop complaining... Nobody reads wiki...

WARNING: DO NOT UPDATE THE SAMSUNG LATEST FIRMWARE UPGRADES
or YOU CAN NOT USE OUR HACKS AND CAN NOT REVERT FIRMWARE BACK EASILY!

Even you set "Automatic updates OFF", it still offers update and by a mistake you can update. So better go in the service menu and set "OTN Support" Off. Seems it is back in the service menu (since it is not presented in ES).

But what about that fact, that users who upgraded from t-fxpdeuc 1118 to 1119 got root and ftp access? Anyone could confirm that?

When I lost root i had not the latest firmware on my f7080. It was 1115 or 1116 (don't know it exactly anymore), not 1118 (the latest one at this time). After I lost root i updated manually to 1118.
