[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
Hello, my fellow XDAs.

Based on this guide, i wanted to give cLK a go, because "it makes my device like a native android device" (please correct me if I'm wrong).

So my problem is, I already got a good, working NAND Build (RafDroid HD 4.0.2), flashed with MAGLDR and CWM. And now I don't know, how much I can "damage" with an installation of cLK. As far as I know, cLK just replaces MAGLDR (also, please correct me if I think wrong).

Will I be able to boot normally in my NAND? Or do I have to re-flash CWM?

Just a little confused...

Greetings

schousta
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zach.antre:
cLK is managing partitioning unlike in MAGLDR that is managed by DAF installer.

You will have to reflash everything but you can also restore with CWM.

So...

Make a backup

Task 29 (to be sure)

Flash cLK

Flash CWM

Flash ROM for cLK

Restore backup
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
Thank you, kind sir :D

one last question: the rom has to specificly for cLK, right?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Macgnolia:
Yes the ROM has to be for cLK. It is a couple of ROMs that will work with both cLK and MAGLDR. But most have to seperate versionscause it is aslight difference in the kernel but hou can make any AndroidROM work with cLK. Check the last post of mime on the last page of my guide you are using it has a zip file from the cLK tgread that is suppose to do this. Or PM zach.antre he can help you make any ROM compatible with cLK.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
Oh, thank you, will work through that asap!

Edit: Sorry, I got another question. Will cLK make my phone somewhat faster/stable?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
Hi,

I don't think clk will affect the speed or stability of your phone.

That is all down to the ROM you are using and the setup you have for it.

:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] iiadore:
what does cwm mean?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Macgnolia:
CWM stands for Clockwork Mod Recovery. Some people call it CMR but it is the same thing. Click on my guide to find out what CWM is and what it does. the section on CWM starts in post #2.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
So do you think, if I will change from RafDroid HD 4.0.2 to NexusHD2 Gingerbread 2.7, my setup would get faster?

I mean, I like my ROM, but the more and more upcoming lags are annoying and the battery life is just not really acceptable.

So, would this be an alternative for me?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
Hi,

You can only try it see what happens.

:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
I see you're using the latest imilka rom (sense gingerbread).

Is it any good?

Everything working fine for you?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
I like it ,but it's not perfect and there issues.

I need sense,and I prefer sense 2.1 and 3.0.

That is only my opinion.

:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
I like Sense too (one reason why i bought the HD2). I hope, I will make it without.

In case, I'm totally confused, I have backups. Lots of them.

But before re-flashing a backup, I have to re-flash the connected partition-file, right?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
Ok,

Before I suggest anything ,I need to know what you have done up to now...

Did you follow zach.antre and do this?

So...

Make a backup

Task 29 (to be sure)

Flash cLK

Flash CWM

Flash ROM for cLK

Restore backup

What ROM would you like to install?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
So here is what i did so far:

Backup via CWM.

Backed up Apps with Titanium Backup Pro.

(I read Task29 could be skipped, so I checked this on my todo-list)

Aaaaand I decided against cLK because I didn't find any advantages of it for me.

And I am flashing CWM Partition file now. (NexusHD2 Gingerbread 2.7).

ROM is next.

MAYBE I will restore the Apps, but I'm not sure, wanted to have a clean install.

Are there problems with this?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
No problems..

Looks ok.

Good luck

:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
Thank you very much!

Will post when successfull :D

Also: Are 70 % battery enough?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
Yes,should be ok.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] schousta:
So, no you get a thank.

Kind Sir.

:D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zach.antre:
For your knowledge...

In most cases every ROM Dev is offering the proper files needed or gives info of what partition table need to be etc.

In your case for NexusHD2 v2.7 Tytung is providing the cLK 1.4 with partition System:135M and Cache:2M, the rest space goes for Data.

The CWM backup provides you the following files

.android_secure.img

boot.img (kernel and initrd)

cache.img

data.img (all your apps, setting, contacts, messages etc)

nandroid.md5

recovery.img (ClockWorkMod Recovery)

system.img (The Android system)

Which is actually everything that your phone has exept your SD files.

When you install a new ROM which is same Base version (Gingerbread or Froyo etc) you only need to restore (advance restore) data.img, nothing else.

Titanium backup is doing exactly the same job but also make sure your restored backup will work without a problem.

If you wipe everything and want to restore the previous version you had, you just need to restore in CWM boot.img, system.img and data.img

System.img is actually the space you need in system partition.

If for example you have deleted some system apps, such as tweeter, facebook etc, and your system.img is 119MB then you need a cLK with 120M system partitioning.

You will see different cache sizes because many ROM devs are linking cache to data so actually elliminate the need of cache partition.

I hope I have helped!

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Download ES File Explorer from the market. Go into settings and root options. Check the Root Explorer box, the HIAPK will already be checked. Then check mount file system. When you are all done, before exiting go back and uncheck mount and root, or you may have trouble running it a second time reading the sd card. Not all have this problem.

You can also just install the Sprint Nav apk conventionally to data. It doesn't have to be in system/app.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Amande:
I'm having a strange problem today on my Desire Z.

First of all, my phone isn't rooted or modified in any way, it's pure stock.

I rebooted the phone this morning and for some reason it doesn't want to boot anymore. All was working well before.

After I turn it on, it's stuck on a white screen with skateboarding Android (see attached file). I waited, and waited (over 15 mins) but nothing happens.

Since I can't turn it off, I pulled the battery and restarted the phone. Same thing happens over and over.

I tryed holding volume down + power to boot into bootloader: it doesn't work either.

Any help would be much appreciated :)

Thx in advance.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbahai:
I love my incredible but am thinking of upgrading. Is the thunderbolt awesome? Are you satisfied with the single core or do you wish you waited for a dual?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wgsesq:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firejuan:
I upgraded from the OG as well. I miss my D1 some, but it was my first android device. I am happy with my TBolt. I was concerned that I was buying outdated technology as well, but I knew that I would not be an early adopter of the dual core devices. There will likely be some issues initially and hopefully the kinks will be worked out when I ready to upgrade again. The biggest factor that played into my decision to purchase the TBolt was 4G and the fact that my area will have it by the end of the year. I got to use it a few days while on a business trip and it is blazing fast.

I just got one a couple days ago (wife went with iPhone... eh, I forgive her), I came from a Droid X. Hands down, loving the phone. LTE wont be in my area until summertime, so looking forward to that. Like how much more customized the bolt can be compared to my X. Phone is plenty fast too. Sense isn't too shabby either (least I dont think so) Only downside (Im sure this has been beaten to death) is battery life. I do have the extended battery, but believe mine may be defective (forever to charge, and doesnt ever seem to charge fully). Try the phone out though, 14 days. Doubt you'll take it back though.

Hi,

I'd like to familiarize myself with rom development and porting.

Before anyone asks, I am an extensive linux user (gentoo), I know how to work with adb and fastboot, I am good at C/C++ and Java. I even know a little about kernels.

From my understanding, in order to port a rom from device A to device B, I need to swap the kernel and configure a kernel for device B. One includet into the ported rom, the rom should at least boot.

If the kernel is good and device A and device B are not too far apart from each other, everything should work the same.

Please do correct me, if I am wrong.

What I need is a point to start. Doesn't need to be a trivial one.

And I'd like to get some more info on kernel development.

So I accidentally updated to 1.83 after being rooted on 1.57 via aRoot. Is there any easy solution for me to get root back without gingerbreak?

Thanks
[Atrix 4G General] Gr8Danes:
Why don't you like Gingerbreak? That's what I used and had no problem with it.

If it is because of the possibility of wiping your internal SD, just back everything up just in case. It only wiped a couple items off mine. ;)
[Atrix 4G General] Akira459:
well, firstly i don't have everything backed up with Titanium backup and secondly I do not own a microsd card, i was planning to get one today so that i could backup everything and put it on my computer but now thats impossible since im on 1.83 without root.
[Atrix 4G General] Gr8Danes:
Can't you just move the apps that are on your SD to your phone until you root with Gingerbreak?

Then you can just connect to your PC and backup your internal SD? Or just backup you whole internal SD on you computer and restore after?
[Atrix 4G General] Akira459:
What do I use to backup? i thought i needed to use TB but i don't have root anymore...
[Atrix 4G General] Gr8Danes:
I'm confused. Just copy and paste your whole Internal SD contents to a folder on your PC. Then if anything gets deleted, copy it all back. ;)
[Atrix 4G General] xfinrodx:
Define "easy." I think that

1: 1.2.6 sbf

2: Gladroot 4.2

3: Update and run afterupdate

Is extremely easy. And it leaves your internal intact if you're worried about that. (Doesn't your hard drive have a couple spare gigs for short-term backup?)
[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
Don't even think you need to restore it to 1.2.6. I was rooted on 1.26, updated to 1.57 and lost root, then updated to 1.83 and used GingerBreak to root and it worked fine.

Akira: the only thing that GingerBreak will possibly erase are some/all of the files for the apps you have installed. All that information is visible if you have your phone connected to your computer as a mass storage device. Just copy everything on your phone to your computer (i usually just make a separate folder on my desktop), let GingerBreak do it's thing, and once everything is up and running again... if you're missing some of your apps, just copy the stuff you copied to your computer back to your phone.
[Atrix 4G General] Akira459:
Oh...I thought it like wiped everything like back to stock 1.83....well if thats not the case then i guess ill use ginger break.....right?
[Atrix 4G General] Gr8Danes:
Exactly what I was stating, and it works quite well. Very easy.
[Atrix 4G General] JayRolla:
You still need a sd card since gingerbreak uses the sd card for temporary files.
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
DO NOT USE GINGERBREAK! you can just use afterupdate.bat if that is how you rooted before. I can confirm this works.

i completely understand why you wouldn't want to use gingerbreak. copying off the entire internal SD card is a huge pain in the ass.
[Atrix 4G General] Akira459:
so if i used aroot i can do afterupdate again?
[Atrix 4G General] WiredPirate:
Yes, as long as you haven't done any mods. If you did mod you will have to SBF, GladRoot, update, retain root.
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
just try it, if it doesn't work, you'll know.
[Atrix 4G General] WiredPirate:
Sounds like a good way to F something up.
[Atrix 4G General] lyon21:
Flash to stock 1.26, use gladroot, update to 1.57, update to 1.83 and then run afterupdate.bat. That's what I use and then restore with titanium backup.
[Atrix 4G General] Gr8Danes:
If he has updated to 1.83.....he is not going to want to flash back to 1.26 or to 1.57. It is supposedly not backwards compatible. I don't want to see him brick when attempting to.
