There seems to be a bit of confusion on what recovery we should be using. Most threads indicate CWM 3.x

This post is often referenced as the most current recovery for our needs:

It can be seen being referenced here:

Then there is this:

I have not seen many references to CWM 4.x recovery. Is this for gingerbread roms?

Please understand I am not trying to "shake the bees nest" or anything. I just want to make sure we are doing things correctly. I have been doing some research since the above post was made and have come up with conflicting resulsts, looking for clarification. Thanks. :)

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdb23103:
when I downloaded this, it was recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.8-fascinate, so what is 4.x about it? My recovery is the yellow 3.2.0.0 - any available upgrade?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunyazz:
i dunno, it said "CWM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v4.0.0.1 " in the description. Mine is yellow also, works for all the roms I've tried.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dw77x:
So I guess we can assume that 4.x is fully backwards compatible with older roms?

I just don't understand how we could be snipped at for not using CMR 4.x when it is not even on his own recovery page (or widely referenced anywhere else).

Don't half tell us something then not back up your claims. It seems this stupid GB leak did nothing but make people crabby! (from day one)
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Keithn:
I'm on CM7 with CWM4. I would think CWM3 is fine with TW roms if it still flashes everything and last I know it did. If CWM4 was something you should have there would probably be posts for it in the dev section.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dw77x:
Ummm... that's my point. Did you follow the links in the OP? especially the last one. That is where the confusion came from.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Keithn:
I guess I'd have to look into it but I didn't know of any major differences such as those between CWM2 and 3. So I don't know why it would be a huge deal to use CWM3 if I figure anything out I'll post.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skynet11:
CWM 3.0 may be responsible (but probably isn't) for the sd cards being borked by some of those who've flashed the EC09 GB leak or the early ROMs based on it. That might be why times_infinity made his dinosaur post. That said, it's more likely that the SD card issue is strictly an EC09 issue having nothing to do with which recovery you use. I suggest going on IRC to find your answers (I think either #samsungfascinate or #teamsbrissenmod or maybe #tsm).

[Vibrant General] Solissfiend:
Ok So here is how you do it, it takes 2 apps.... SGS Tools you can get on the market place and BatteryCalibration which you can also get on the market place... both are free. First Plug your phone in while its on and charge to 100 percent or what ever you max out at. Then unplug your phone and it will drop to something like 97 98 or even 99. Plug it back in and then go to sgs tools > apply script > delete_batterystats_q.txt. Your phone will now recharge to 100 percent, if not repeat this process until it says 100%. Once done run Batterycalibration and hit calibrate.... DONE!!!!! Your phone will now fully charge to 100% again. Any questions feel free to PM me or write back on here, I check it every few hours so... Good luck to you, it has worked for me every time I flash a new rom.
[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
Tried your method and now charging back..I will report if this works.
[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
Still getting battry full charge message at 98 percent:(
[Vibrant General] sumchamp:
I am also facing the same and it stuck at 98%.
[Vibrant General] PJcastaldo:
You guys realize that the percentage is relative.. The battery level really has to do with MV.. there is a post around here that explains it well..

You can delete battery stats from recovery.. and when you hit calibrate in the battery calibration app thats what it doing BTW is deleting your battery stats.. using both apps is just redundant..:rolleyes:

But even if it says 97% after a calibration, if the battery full message shows up then its fully charged based on the MV the battery is at.. regardless of the percent shown..
[Vibrant General] anthonys2r:
I usually just unplug, wait a bit, then plug it back in and repeat the process until it shows the 100% when unplugged (bump charging). Its a long painful process but I find it the best way to do it

[Galaxy S II Accessories] winwiz:
The volume buttons do not work, any one know how to get these working?

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Accessories] attig:
Nope the volume buttons don't work. The only reference I've found to that is from the description of the "Headset Button" app saying that the iphone volume buttons are not supported by the "Android framework", no more details than that.

There was half a furore a couple of years ago where it was claimed that Apple added a special encrypted chip to the ipods so that they can licence the headphone buttons technology. Result is that the volume buttons can only be used by ipods/iphones... I don't think it was ever confirmed.

I still don't get it though. There has to be some sort of signal that can be detected by the phone when the volume buttons are pressed. Can someone explain how can that be prevented? Or is it a matter of software update Android-side?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Rsaeire:
Aside from the volume controls, what do you think of call quality on the iPhone headset winwiz? I've tried several headsets now but I still can't find one that works well.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rickgillyon:
Logcat doesn't show any usable interactions when volume buttons are pressed...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] attig:
True - I've just checked in catlog and it just doesn't register.

I don't understand how apple managed to lock this down. A signal is a signal. Is it just a matter of bios upgrade?

It would be useful to at least get the hands on the whitepaper/specs that are given to the iphone headset makers. Maybe there is a way that we can hack the phone to read these signals.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mobilemaduk:
Why? Apple headphones are terrible.

"Looks like this wants to go into an eternal update loop between EF02 and EF10 modems. Any idea which apk is automating this so I can remove it? Hitting cancel every boot is okay and all, but..."

The above from another post in developers.

I have Odin'd back to stock EB13 and then OTA to EC05. I am on "EC05". On each boot it still wants to update from "EF02" to EF10. I would like to stop this without turning off OTA updates. Possible?

This is what I did, ef02 to ef10 to ef02, then got another popup for ef02 to ef10. So I then Odined DK28 modem (which I prefer anyway) then let it check for updates again, it still says ef02 to ef10, hit ok, it will try FOTA then reboot, you'll still be on DK28 modem, no more popups, then you can try ef02 again by Odining if you want, just don't do a firmware check...

Had the same issue. I went back to stock EC05 expecting it to go back to EC05 modem. I think the popup screen is from something still residual on the phone. I hit okay when it asked for EF10 -> EF02.

The first time I flashed EF02 I got stuck in the same loop. My battery was getting raped as well, so I'm not sure if there was a correlation. I tried a second odin flash and things went much better the second time around. After updating to EF10, I hit cancel when it was automatically checking for firmware after the next reboot and it never prompted me for it again. My battery was significantly better, but I still went back to froyo after a week because my phone started rebooting on it's own occasionally.

Easy way to stop boot loop:

I get better results with EF10 than EF02 so what I did was, I let it take me back to EF02, then of course, the popup to go to EF10 came.

Once I updated to EF10, it restarted the phone. About a minute later a popup shows that it's checking update status or something similar. As soon as that pops up, hit the back button to cancel it. Wait another 20 seconds or so and it will check for update. As soon as it checks for update, press Cancel and you will no longer be in the update loop.

If you prefer EF02, first update to EF10, then update again to EF02 then hit back when it gives the prompt, then cancel when it checks for update.

Hi all,

I have XXKF2 on my phone and would like to root it without having to wipe the settings and apps. I think that I can do this, but would like to verify that it would work:

Question 1: Procedure in question

Flash insecure version of PDA XXKF2

Add su/ busybox etc

Flash stock PDA XXKF2

I have read intratech's root guide, and I did not see if it explitily noted that one has to reset / re-install the apps and settings.

Question 2: XXKF2 insecure unavailable

I did not find an insecure version of XXKF2. There are plenty of other insecure kernels available. Would it work if I flashed another insecure PDA like KE7 and used this purely of installing Busybox/SU etc and flashed back the stock XXKF2?

I lost my Eris, the battery is dead.

Question, what can someone get off of the phone? I deactivated it and had it put on the "Lost/Stolen" list. My concern is someone can get a lot of personal info.

Any advice/help would be appreciated.

Thanks
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
First, you should've already changed your passwords on all of your email accounts, especially Google (used to sync. info/data/contacts/emails, etc. between the server & your ex-Eris) .... Facebook, Twitter, Skype/Voice, et. al.

Second, you did not install any phone tracking or recovery/security apps on the Eris like Wheres My Droid, which would allow you to ring & find it via GPS, etc. so whatever was stored on it (photos, sensitive emails/text or mms msgs. and even web search history could be easily read & extracted off the phone, once it's powered on (regardless of whether the battery is dead or not - a generic mini-usb charger/cable or inexpensive replacement will easily bring it back to life again). So the question that you need to think & answer for yourself is: do I and should I tell & alert someone, anyone or nearly everyone that I "communicate" with about the lost Eris & possible breach of info and security, and to be cautious about data mining and misuse/abuse, etc.

Third, was it lost in a public place, misplaced or dropped while getting in/out of a car/bus/taxi/train or possibily intentionally taken - might want to file a police report (if PD would take one) just for the records & future proof (identity theft ??)

While this lost/stolen phone will not be activated on VZW (at least not so easy) - it could still be ebay as parts or spares or be on craigslist (ever wonder about some of phones seen at the flea market ....) - so you will need to be on your guard for a while as the data might still be vunerable to exposure and misuse down the road.

Hard lessons learned here, consider & do install an app to track/recover one's smartphone as it's becoming our mobile wallet with access to mobile banking info and even one's Starbuckscard account - easily swiped for getting that latte around the corner ....
