[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wheelrandolph:
Hi All,

Been pulling my hair out trying to get 2.3.4; got ota but kept getting "assert failed", AccountsandSyncSettings.apk.

Also tried a couple of custom roms 2.3.4 and would not load. Finally did a complete factory restore with PASSIMG.IMG. It immediately went straight to 2.3.4 Gingerbd update but now when I power off and do volume down/power to go into bootloader and go down to Recovery all I get is Triangle with exlamation and little droid. Recovery never comes up. Is there a button sequence to access Recovery from the Triangle screen?

Checked Root Explorer and there is NO: init_recover.rc file.

Thanks for any help.:confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
That's the stock recovery. To see the menu press power and volume up together (power slightly first)...

When i restore.. Isn't it supposed to bring back exactly what i had before?

I just was trying to flash a few new fonts. i didn't like one. and the others weren't flashing over.

Before i did this. I backed up.

Now. When i try to restore that backup. It backs up. But it makes me relogin to my gmail. doesn't have all my apps. and isn't set up the way i had it.

Help?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Well when you do a nandroid back up it takes a snapshot of your entire OS and the fashion that you left it. If you are trying to do a "restore" by selecting factory wipe from Recovery or hBoot it will wipe everything. including the Log in and the applications. It brings the phone back to a like new status.

If you are wanting to go back to a previous font that you liked, including applications you need to restore from a Nandroid backup.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frankasaurus:
So i can still do it with the backups that i have? i just have to do it through a nandroid backup? or do i have to start all over and next time. do a nandroid backup?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
:confused:

If you have a previous nandroid backup yes you can restore it. boot into recovery > factory wipe > backup/restore > restore > select the package that you want to restore.

before flashing anything serious you should do a nandroid backup anyway

boot in recovery > backup/restore > backup

, and keep the newest one. They can take up a chunk of room so you might want to delete the older ones.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frankasaurus:
What i mean is. Before. I've been backing it up through clockwork. Going into the actual app. they hitting backup current rom.

That wouldn't be a nandroid backup. so those are useless except for bringing it to brand new with the rom on there?

Sorry. haha. just trying to be clear.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Don_Perrignon:
This thread just confused what was supposed to be a simple one-two process. :(
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
That is preforming android back up. i just hate using the application it's just as easy to boot into recovery and do the same thing.

I have no clue what you are asking. on this one.

A nandroid restore will put you back to the exact point where you made the back up.

Is it just me ?

If i open Samsung Apps, it tells me there is an update but when I press to update it brings me back to the list of apps but nothing to update?

Anyone has the same?
[Galaxy S II General] jonsmith709:
I also had this on my previous gs2, with my new one the update again showed and this time a camera firmware update was available.

P.s there was nothing wrong with the previous one, apart from the guy at p4u sold me there demo phone, which after a week started to grate me, so I took it back and got a new one. Sad I know, but when you pay £499 you want new ;-)
[Galaxy S II General] AvRS:
Mine says there's an update everyday but nothing shows and its really annoying.
[Galaxy S II General] jonsmith709:
Have you had the camera firmware update from the Samsung app store ? as it comes as an app
[Galaxy S II General] pureheart:
No I think all of us with the problem didn't install any camera software from the samsung app...anyone been able to fix the problem?
[Galaxy S II General] blackheart2925:
Yeah have had this on my Tab...:-( just ignore it...
[Galaxy S II General] AvRS:
No never had or seen it, when I first used Samsung Apps it updated the App software but that's it. Now I get this update message everyday then says no data on the screen and when I click on the New tab it just lists apps.

Oh and I never even see the 1 update available message as shown in the screenshot I just get the alert in the notifications area.
[Galaxy S II General] kreoXDA:
I think if you guys go to that Samsung app store, find "accuweather widget" and install it (even though you already have one, that one in the Samsung Market will say "new install", not "update").

Your update prompt will then disappear. I think this is related to a bug in how the Samsung Market links installed apps to updates.

Be warned though that new/updated widget changed a lot. But you can always roll back updates right in Samsung market app.

can anyone confirm what I described is true?
[Galaxy S II General] El Salvador:
I can confirm this. I also got this update message showing, but when I clicked it, there was no update visible. Anyway, somehow I managed to install the update and it indeed seemed to be Accuweather. Only thing is that it did overwrite the stock widget with another widget. I liked the stock widget more, so I uninstalled Accuweather and the stock widget returned.
[Galaxy S II General] AvRS:
Also I looked through the apps and there's a new version of kies air so I installed that.

I purchased this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170637611939&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

This is the first time I bought a full body plastic shield for my device. The quality is medicore. It fits well, and application isnt too hard, but the plastic pits pretty easily or scuffs or something, because it came with two of them and once applied, there's a pit or two here or there from the plastic deforming, which is really not attractive on your screen. Never had this issue with other screen protectors before.

The holes on the backside are in the right positions for all the inputs.

Anyway, it cost $15.99 for two sets, and unfortunately I used both sets just to get it to work, and I still have defects on the screen side. I can live with it for now, but it's not pretty. :(

I'll post pics later.

And you can't post to market from app inventor.

Thanks for trying though.

Any other suggestions?
[Android Software Development] rigman:
I don't know of any tool other than appinventor that lets you create apps without getting down and dirty with the java code. If you're serious about developing android apps you need to bite the bullet and learn java and then pick an IDE and work thru some tutorials.

Two popular IDE's are Eclipse;

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/

and Intellij;

You can find directions for setting up Eclipse on my blog linked below.

Restore ?

Hi everyone im a noob at this so be gentle :-P

Right as the subject states i cannot restore my nandroid backups as when i try i get a message (Failed to Flash Boot Image!)

I was running Tweaky's GingerBread rom and did a nandroid backup of that then i flashed simply honey rom (both Ginger roms), and when i went to restore Tweaky that error message came up??

Anyone advise me what i can do so that i can continue flashing with a safety of a Backup should i need it incase something goes wrong.

I did have a Htc Desire before this galaxy and had no problems whatsoever restoring my backups, from froyo to gingerbread or vice versa however this galaxy seems alot more tech hence why i have put this thread up.

So would someone please help so i can resolve this (bugging me) issue :)

Thanks in advance ;)

I've checked my APN countless times I'm using and regarless if I'm using the appl1 or just internet.com i still only get data if I have "H+" for a signal.

I've also tried to change preferred network type to something other then GSM Auto under *#*#4636#*#* but it always reverts back to GSM Auto like its locked.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] dalepa:
I am noticing a trend now... Each morning the GPS wont start. I startup maps in the morning, and I get no GPS icon. (AGPS still works) When I turn GPS off, GPS won't turn on again... A reboot is required to fix the problem.

2nd phone now with this issue... starting to wonder if its related to charging all night...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lightning Blue:
I don't think it is related to charging, randomly my GPS will get stuck, either when I first try to use it, or after it has been in use for a while, the GPS icon just sits there, and it won't lock on, and I have to reboot.

Annoying to reboot when you're driving in an area where you're actually relying on the nav to be working!

I've had this issue too. I really hope they come out with an update soon. Love this phone besides the small nuances.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Weird, I don't have this problem but I do have a problem if I leave my WiFi on all night while it's charging. If I do, in the morning when I take it off the charger, the WiFi icon is gone and my 4G icon just keeps flashing every 5 seconds. It won't stop flashing and my phone will not have data until I reboot. Now I just turn off WiFi before going to bed since it doesn't happen any other time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
The easiest way to fix that is reconnect your wifi then while connected to wifi turn wifi off. Boom.

Try updating your baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jimbo831:
My GPS is "better" with the new baseband, but that is a highly relative term. It still takes 5 minutes or more to connect usually. The oddest thing though is when I go into GPS Status, I can see it is locked onto 7 or 8 satellites, but still doesn't have a lock, which is dumb because at least 4 should have a perfect lock. I will NEVER buy another LG phone in my life. Wish I'd have just waited for the Sensation, ugh.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smoothmoose:
My phone was from Wind Canada which has a baseband from Jun 7, 2011. If I am correct, there is no way I can even try the new T-mobile basedband that came with the GB update. LG updater says my phone is up-to-date, and I have not been able to find on the forums here a flashable file for the new baseband.

We're not sure when the Wind version of the GB update is coming. Hopefully soon, but the phone only launched here about 5 weeks ago.

Any other ideas?

Hey i had das bamf and I liked the call recorder app and then i changed Roms any ideas in how I can just get the call recorder app without the Rom.. the ones in the market that i tried are weak sauce
[Thunderbolt General] Chillerman:
I switched roms as well and couldn't get the right call recorder either. Even backing it up it won't restore. I believe you have to have dasbamf kernels for support. I am back to dasbamf 1.6.3 remix and am loving it with call recorder support.
[Thunderbolt General] denonlake:
You have to have a kernel with the drivers compiled in. Only way to get it on each Rom is to request support from dev of the Rom u want to use. Or compile yourself. I've been trying to figure that part out for the gb leak. Good luck
