If someone could tell you how to post a system dump, would you be willing to do it? I don't know how, but I'd be glad to help you figure it out or to try to recruit someone who knows how to do it.

EDIT: here is a general idea of how it is done for another device.

http://android.modaco.com/content/a...-dump-system-and-boot-from-a-standard-device/

BTW, it sounds like the best time to do this dump is before making any changes to the device.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] smaskell:
someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think you can make a system dump without having root access
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
some observations.

no fastboot, recovery wont mount data (so sdcard is not avail.).

working on dumping.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
the retail feels heavier then the IO edition. they may have added something to it.

anywhoo, im trying to take a proper system dump (either by gaining root or other misc avenue with elevated permissions).

just for kicks i took a quickie sys dump as 'shell', with the errors from having reduced perms. no boot (expected).

ill keep you all updated.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] smaskell:
great to know you're working on it. keep it up!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
tried flashing through odin. wouldn't take (all was healthy and passed though prior to flash).

investigating why it didnt flash.

they really locked this thing down didn't they!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jeremydk:
We're kind of split between two threads, so I'm arbitrarily choosing this one.

Pershoot: Let's get this thing cracked. Can you grab an "adb shell mount" output for me? I'm curious as to how that compares to the I/O model. If there's a partitioning difference, that's going to be another hurdle.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
it is the same as the IO. except for an inclusion of a /preload partition (found in the recovery init).

Looks like we're more similar to the 10.1v as far as rooting is going to go.

Making sure I have all my ducks in a row:

We can't access recovery via "adb reboot recovery"

We can't access bootloader via "adb reboot bootloader"

Fastboot appears nonfunctional.

Can we reach a bootloader menu? (Power off fully, tap power, and press and hold left volume?)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
no bootloader access.

only odin or the crippled recovery (cant attempt a flash from sdcard, because it never mounts data). assuming they send a command via odin or some such to enable it.

adb reboot recovery/bootloader brings you to the battery screen. only way in to recovery is via power+vol rocker selection at power on.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jeremydk:
Gut feeling on this is that we're going to need to port/repackage Clockwork mod for flashing via Odin. It's not really optimal, but it's something.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
ive done it.

it will not flash (with default options (auto-reboot and fs-time)).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jeremydk:
Argh, this is going to be problematic. Can we dump the stock recovery image from an I/O tab and flash that?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
i could not get a flash going. the contents shouldn't matter. the stock IO recovery is different from what's on this device. that has the ability to flash updates signed with test keys, can flash from sdcard, etc.

if it checks out it should flash (which it has (unless a PIT is needed, which i don't have for this device or another option selected which im not aware of at the current moment (not too familiar with odin and its internals))).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jeremydk:
Thinking on my feet here -- Now that the 3.1 update is out for the I/O tablet, if it's signed by Samsung, odds are that we can properly flash it on the Retail device, potentially giving us an in for a non-gimped recovery that we can use to shoehorn the rest of a root through with.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
the OTA update here is working against a recovery which can flash test signed key updates and allows sdcard flashing.

not sure any bits will be in here for use in a locked down envmt.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jeremydk:
Depends wholly what they signed with.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmullins23:
I just installed a new ROM CoreDroid and now ROm Manager doesnt seem to be working.

"You must root your phone for ROM manager to function. Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su" or "/ system/xbin/su"

Any idea?

I tried to uninstall ROm manager and reinstall and its giving me the same error.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty_ice:
Custom ROMs normally bring a Su binary with them, so the error shouldn't occur.

To make sure it's best to check for the Su binary in the bin folders.

If it is not there you have found the problem.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ritter-sebo:
I would say the flash wasn't successful. Because CoreDroid should have SuperUser in it's rom.

Try to flash the right Rom (check MD5) again.

Anyone know how to get the FFC to work while using Tango on the GX2? There is no switch camera button. Any help would be appreciated. I bought this phone to video chat!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
i hear ya. wth i can't believe there's not alot more complaints. i didn't buy it just for that, but i would like to use it once in awhile. tried qik, my vid was upside down. but my wifes mt4g showed me fine on her end. smh. basic functions,features like this should "just work out of the box".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jdaclutch:
I've tried yahoo, also no ffc support:(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gulo101:
this does suck. Main reason I upgraded was to get FCC and now this !

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Memnoch30:
Tango is working on an update. Also, if you flash the Gingerbread leak, for some reason Tango defaults to the FFC. You can't change cameras, but at least it defaults to FFC.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnienyc:
I am about to replace my Evo:

Is there away turn off the notification bar in the browser?

Has battery life been good?

GPS working as it should? (unlike the Epic)

Does it scratch easily?

How is call quality?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zysoclaplem:
I haven't seen a way to turn off the notification bar while in the browser. Perhaps rooted with a custom rom when one is created.

Battery life is okay. Not amazing, but not as bad as the Evo.

GPS works great for me. YMMV.

No scratches yet. So not easily. I am very careful with my phones though.

Call quality is great for me. Sprint's call quality in this area is great.

Just a warning, I have very poor 3G speeds with mine. It will probably be going back tomorrow because of that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
I picked up the Sprint Nexus over the weekend. Also coming from the EVO.

Not sure this is a keeper yet. My EVO had the best ROM "Myns RS 5" was super smooth fast and was a Sense based ROM. Coming to vanilla stock Android after that was a shock and still hard to adjust to.

Only thing I like about Nexus over EVO is three things. Beautiful screen ...lightweight size fit in pocket easily ...battery life is better...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fraspas:
I picked up the Nexus S Sunday and coming from a HTC Hero (worst phone ever made), the Nexus S is the best thing ever since sliced bread!

Dont know about the notification bar...

Battery life has been pretty good. Lasts me a day/day and a half almost with regular use (emails, txts, phone calls, etc).

Have it in a case (Incipio), screen seems pretty durable so far...but I'm thinking of slapping on a protector just in case. That being said, the phone is extremely thin and light but a case is definitely suggested as the phone itself it slippery like a bar of soap.

Call quality is great.

I am looking forward to root this phone but reading a bunch of different sites on rooting has my head spinning.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnienyc:
About it being slippery:

anyone know if the back from the T-mobile Nexus fits? It seems to have some texture on it...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awesomeindeed:
It's not a texture, it's still glossy, that's how the Sprint one looks as well.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p00kienrayray:
*no idea on the notification bar

*battery life is better than evo, but still so-so depending on your use

*the gps isn't bad at all, considering all the complaints i've heard about it...in all my experiences so far its been accurate to 20 meters on average.

*put a skinomi on mine, so idk about the scratch

*calls are ok

overall i like the form factor. easier to hold than evo, not as heavy.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnienyc:
Mr Awesome, the Sprint one does not have the apparent dots on it (it looked like solid black to me), so I thought it may feel different...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] applefanboylol:
It does have dots on the back.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p00kienrayray:
the sprint one has dots on the back, but i guess it just depends on what angle youre looking at, it may not be so visable.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Are you using the Incipio Feather case ? Really like that case design but was food it would not fit the larger Sprint Nexus ?

You have any pics please ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fraspas:
Yeah I uploaded some pics of the phone in the case. Incipio's feather cases are very lightweight and fits the phone like a glove. The material is very smooth on the inside and gives the phone a very nice matte finish. A lot easier to hold onto to prevent accidental slips. Don't worry about the size difference, it's only 0.3mm between the two models anyways. The case fits.

The only issue I find with the case is that its made for the GSM version of the Nexus S and I'm guessing the power button on the GSM version is a little lower compared to the CDMA? Look at the second pic to see what I'm talking about...the cutout is a little off. Very minor detail, the button is pretty much unaffected, just feels off centered. Kind of pissed me off in the beginning but I learned to accept it.

I emailed Incipio about this and they said they're not releasing a Nexus S 4G case anytime soon. But whatevers, this case works and Incipio makes great cases.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wiley_11:
Thanks for the info&pics. I read on another forum a reply from Incipio that the case didn't fit the NS4G. I'm ordering now. :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Thanks just placed my order. I bet Incipio will be shocked with a ton of new orders all of a sudden for this case this week :)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianDigital:
not trying to come off offensive, this phone was already rooted before it was made, the only that stands in your way is a driver

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYYFan325:
Yep picked it up on launch day with the phone. The clip is garbage, ive had it fall off my belt while bending down, moving fast, etc. The body protector is nice however. Has good grip too it and the phone still feels thin.

The only thing I'm really swing so far about EVO vs NS4G is coming from rommed evos, don't hold biased to that,as the ohknd just came out Sunday

I have the sprint nexus s and the Holster and Shield Combo which fits pretty good. Now for the invisible shield it was alittle harder to put on..I ruined the first one..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnienyc:
Just got a Nexus, here are my thoughts

Just went from Evo > Nexus S 4g, and here are my brief notes.

-Nexus is faster, but not by much.

-Nexus screen makes the Evo's look washed out and soft by comparison. The Nexus has amazing blacks, which really makes a big difference in terms of clarity, apparent sharpness. (though the Nexus colors often look too saturated)

-Speaker sounds a lot better (playing music) It bas more bass and generally sounds less tinny

-call qualaity is good. Loud and clear.

-The nexus is only a few days old, but thus far, the battery is not longer lasting than the Evo's. Hopefully that will improve after a couple weeks.

-screen seems slightly less responsive than the Evo's - resulting in an occational missed press. Overall it is very good though.

-on the down side, the screen does have a yellow/green tint (especially in the whites), and it bothers me.

-in terms of being more pocketable, in practive the 1.5oz weight difference is barely noticable, and the Evo seems more secure in the hand (robably because it has better texture on the back, and because of the extra weight.) So far the Nexus feels a little fragile and almost too light (thankfully though, it does not feel "hollow" like the Epic does.)

So far, I am not sure if I am going to keep the Nexus (purchased off of Craigslist for $350) or use my upgrade for the Evo 3D when it comes out. I am not leaing toward the new Evo - expecually since it will (hopefully) have improved battery performance, and that amazing new screen.

Stay tuned...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quis89:
Notifications...I don't believe so.

Battery life....I'm a heavy user and I get about 7 to 8 hours.. decent I guess.

GPS...working just fine for me.

Scratches? I couldn't say. Ive got the invisishield on the front and back as well as a gel cover.

Call quality? Just fine for me. No complaints. Nice and clear.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnienyc:
As a follow-up:

Nexus issues:

-Build quality is no where near as good as the EVO (feels light weight and flimsy without a case, and with a case it does not feel any lighter, or much smaller than the Evo.)

-Nexus has terribly slow charging. Seriously it seems to take 5 or 6 hours to charge completely. Ouch.

-Nexus battery drains very fast (though I have only charged it maybe 15 times total, so maybe it will get better.) But this morning I went from 100% to 60% in two hours of light use (and no calls)!

-Nexus screen misses key strokes very often! It is simply less sensitive than the EVO and many times I need to re-press keys. Very annoying.

-The green/yellow screen is very annoying

-After making a few days of calls on the Nexus, the Evo has better call quality, and the speaker sounds clearer during calls. (thought the Nexus sounds better for music playback through the speaker phone)

-I miss the screen real estate - the larger type on the Evo (though less contrasty) is just easier to read.

So...the Nexus is now for sale. And I will be using my upgrade for the Evo 3d.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilizblack:
The nexus s from sprint is slightly different from the tmobile on the inside.

For starters the back housing is different for a few cm on the left. Sprint's power buttom is a bit lower than Tmobile's so the back cover of Sprint wont fit t-mobile's.

Also the frame inside the sprint's that the super amoled is glued is different on the left side where the battery plug lies. To use the T-mobile frame, I had to mod it (polishing few parts to flat them) so i can use the tmobile frame. Also one of the screw holes had to be flatten so the board can lie flat on the surface.(however the you cant place that screw back cause it wont fit property). Also Sprint's Nandroid chip is where Tmobiles sim reader is so if you ever screw up or damage your nandroid chip it can be replace.:D Other than that the screen works for both.

I work fixing phones and I just had to worked on a Nexus S. Thought I had to let people know if they ever buy a screen or frame replacement. People on ebay couldnt tell me that before buying!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilizblack:
My Nexus s battery lasts almost 1 1/2 days. And thats on factory. If I put a custom rom it goes up to 2 days. I never had problems with the touch screen, Infact, it works better than my evo.

Yes it does takes allot to charge but as i said after it my battery can last up to 2 days. I dont know about the built quality but for mine it feels really nice. And I love the screens colors. After going back to my Evo the colors now feels dull.

I feel very happy with my Nexus S and Im already missing it!

I've been thinking about how to accomplish this, and I think the only way to get a true 3.1 system.img is to take it off of a live system, that was upgraded cleanly from 3.0->3.0.1->3.1 without any setup or anything in between.. the 3.1 update only had patches for files, and the system stuff is in individual folders/files, not an overall patch to the partition (that even possible for system? seems like there are many possible differences to overwrite)

just try to wipe batt stats from CWM make sure you full drained battery first and charged to 100% then go to cwm wipe batt stats remove charger and reboot.

**disclaimer some what related :D

as per codeworkx

Why my phone only charges to 94%/96%?

The Android OS wont ever let you actually charge to 100%, because charging it to 100% would wear-out the battery alot faster then charging it just under maximum.

On Sammy Roms it just usually tells you its at 100%, when its really at 94%/96%
