[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] japzone:
If you want a Perfect Backup Image of your Nook Color's Unrooted/Hacked state there's only one way I can reccomend.

-Follow verygreen's Guide for Burning CM7 to a MicroSD

-Boot into CM7

-Attach your Nook to your PC

-Make sure ADB is setup properly for use with your Nook

-Now use the Following ADB command

adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0 NookColorBackup.img

-Now wait

This should make a perfect image of your Nook Color. When you want to restore use the following command

adb push NookColorBackup.img /dev/block/mmcblk0

If you have any questions please PM me and I'll post the Reply here as I don't have time currently to sift through all of my Subscriptions to check for Replies. I'll also be unreachable from 7/17 to 7/24.

I hope this helps.

EDIT: The advantage to my method over the above guy's method, is that this doesn't require an 8gb+ card and it copies the Image directly to the PC where you Ultimately want the Backup anyway. Though it's up to you to decide which way you prefer.

I just got a nook and I'm using 1gb_clockwork-3.2.0.1-eyeballer: http://www.techerrata.com/android/teamwin/1gb_clockwork-3.2.0.1-eyeballer.zip

I put it in, rebooted and I'm in clockwork. I did a backup. Is that good enough?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AidenM:
Gotta copy it to the PC. Put the sd card in the PC or use the OSes built in usb mount feature. copy the /clockworkmod/backups folder.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votinh:
Should be good enough.

Make sure you save it somewhere.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
I bought a HD2 off of ebay, and just got it today. I was so happy to get this one after the other broke.

But this one is seriously weird! It's got a resistive touchscreen, the buttons are smaller & compact, and the batter compartment is completely different.

I thought this might be a prototype version, but the back metal section seems like the genuine thing, except its black. Even the packaging looks genuine, except the buttons show up a bit smaller.

Anyone have any clue where this came from?

[HD2 General] Cenobite_:
Are you sure it is not a Chinese clone? What does the bootloader say when starting up?
[HD2 General] Moon2:
No bootloader comes up, when trying to access spl display (the tri-colour thing), it shows up calibrating, and if I press the vol-up key instead of the down, it shows up as "Downloading".

The packaging is resoundingly similar to the real thing, except that it shows the button layout of this fake phone.

I also forgot to mention that this one does not even have a home button.
[HD2 General] Moon2:

you sir, have just bought a chinese clone!
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Yh, and I was so looking forward to my second HD2 and sticking android on it again. =|
[HD2 General] calc:
I'd have pity for you if the clone would of at least had 5 buttons on the front......:rolleyes:

it's clearly missing the "home" button, the biggest dead give away I've seen to date. Considering you've already owned a real HD2 before hand one would think you'd catch that right off the bat. :confused: :confused: :o

Unless of course you were presented with "real" HD2 shots under the ebay listing..... in which case i would just call him out as a fraud and file a complaint.

The youtube video from the thread you listed was quite compelling... looked pretty real in the video, outer appearance anyway, it had 5 buttons....
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Yh, I feel pretty stupid, but the screenshot was too reflective to make out all of the buttons properly, and seeing how the seller had 100% feedback, and put all of the details from the real thing, I couldn't make it out as being a fake.
[HD2 General] backlashsid:
lodge a complaint....
[HD2 General] johnerz:
Yes and the sim/sd card positions are totaly different to the EU version

Looks good for the price, if you did not know any better and were happy with win mo :)
[HD2 General] tobiascrystal:
Even worse it states in the specs as well as in the system info picture that it only has 256M internal memory!!!!! And to top it off the brand in the spec sheet says it is a "HHH"

That really sucks, hopefully you can return it and get your money back.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
I hate winmo! No offence to those that like it, but I just hate it, and I bought it from ebay - it cost the same as 2nd hand HD2's cost nowadays.

I've contacted the seller, and am awaiting reply before taking applying for dispute.

This phone is basically a TG01, but without any alpha android roms for it.

yeah dude I'd rather have a Hero than what you have now, get your $$ back and get a REAL hd2 :)

I have a problem with mobile signal on my nexus one. Sometimes it shows no signal but it gets some (one or two bars out of four) if I try to make a call. I can actually make a call in third attempt. Sometimes it show four bars and my number is unavailable.

[HD2 General] fsoylemez:
Hey everyone,

I've bought my HD2 about a year ago and using it happily, but as I understand Im not using its full potential, so as a clueless person I want to ask you what the f is a custom ROM :)

You see, as Im using my phone Ive loaded a lot of stuff in it, like Cookies Home Tab, BsB tweaks, Comic Reader, Garmin, SlovEd, Java aplications, tons of games...And I of course contacts, calender notes, alarms and so on... What happens to programs and other things after ROM update.

My main question is; what happens when I load a new ROM to my HD2? Are there any risks? How much time would it take to update it?

---

Hardware: CPU: QUALCOMM(R) 8250B 1024MHz - RAM: 576 - Flash: 1024MB

Software:

OS:5.2.21892

Manila: 2.5.2.20121412.2 (I also dont know what this is)

ROM: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE

Radio: 2.10.50.26 (This one also seems to be important somehow)

PS: My phone was bought from US T-Mobile, I unlocked SIM lock to use it here...
[HD2 General] Ev0luti0n_:
you should be slaped for this question! it is an insult to everybody here!

We have an old saying: "Teach me a letter and I will be a slave for you"

And another: "It's not a shame not to know, not asking is"
[HD2 General] jsmccabe78:
rom is the os.

manila is the interface created by htc (you can use the same rom and not use manila - it will look old school wm.)

updating is easy.

it is completely restarting your phone - everything will need to be re-installed. people do it as it is a) custom, b) no bload, c) lots of good tweaks, d) faster.

check out the roms thread and just look around. you'll get a sense of the flavor of what people use. i used energy roms; they always rocked wm. stable, fast and easy to use.

now, if everything is fine and you are 100% happy i suggest not changing unless you have a strong desire. it is okay to just use what you have. :rolleyes: i had custom roms as the original rom quit on me. never looked back.

cheers.
[HD2 General] backlashsid:
Custom ROM is basically the OS Windows Mobile 6.5 by other developers.

Now the architecture of the OS remains intact but developers like tweaking it a little to boost performance and replace stock applications with new ones that people need.

For instance in the default Tmobile Stock Windows Mobile

you can only have 3 quick links on the home screen

however I use Dutty's Latest ROM (use search on XDA) which provide me

4 quick links (tweak)

also his ROM has all the latest applications released by hTc which sometimes takes quite a long time for the stock OS to come with.

I need help on flashing a new radio. I know there's a search button but I'm a noob when it comes to these and I can't really understand what people are talking about. I'm on Virtuous Unity and i wanted to flash this 26.09.04.26 radio.

Please explain to me in terms that I can understand.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Everything you need is in the radio thread. If you need help setting up ADB initially, see this excellent thread. Hopefully you can follow those instructions. No offense intended, but if you cannot figure it out based on those step-by-step guides, then you have no business flashing radios.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1059347

Download the radio.

Copy to the root of phone's SD card.

Turn off the phone.

Turn on the phone, holding Volume Down button.

Select "Yes".

If you don't know how to check MD5 for a download - prepare to have a certain chance of your phone being bricked, or use Google to do what you don't like - which is, to read.

If the above is too hard - stop messing with the phone.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GazaIan:
Additionally, you can download ManD5 or HashDroid if you don't want to use adb to check the MD5 sum. I recommend HashDroid.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
I prefer ManD5, but whatever method you use, whether an app or through ADB, make sure you verify the MD5 before flashing! This can't be repeated enough, because so many people seem to skip that very important step.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] japbart:
How would I know if the md5 is good? Where do I put the radio file specifically? Do i just move it to the sd or do i need to go further in the sd?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
All of that can be answered by reading the flashing procedure in the radio thread we already linked to.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] japbart:
Where is the root of the sdcard? I already read that thread. I just don't know where the root is.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
At this point, it doesn't sound like you should be messing with radios. If you don't know something as basic as the root folder of a storage device, I'd stay away from manually upgrading radios. It's too easy to screw something up.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_directory

Open a file manager. The root of your SD card will be the part with no sub-folders. The file path on Android is /sdcard (with nothing behind it). That's the best way I can explain it.

I thought they had to release the source after 30 days where the hell is that damn thing ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] github:
In all honesty, the code should be there the same day the phone is available to the public.

I don't know the specifics of the GPL license well enough to know if there is a 'hardcoded' time frame (30, 60, 90days, etc) or if there is just a 'within a reasonable amount of time' statement.

GPLv2:

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
received the program in object code or executable form with such
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbrawley1:
Yea, I'd like this source code big time, though playing the Synergy and the battery issues ive learned to really maximize my battery life and not losing much use. Thus, when the source code comes out SBC 36-48hr battery life hahaha that would be sweet!! :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommytomatoe:
I believe HTC goes with the Apache licence and not the GPLv2. Either way there is no requirement for them to release the code at time of release or even 30 days. They release between 90 and 120 days. Unfortunate I know.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cg 112358:

I tried to flash a stock firmware using flashtool but it kept saying, ERROR , please install or reInstall Drivers. I assume that the computer could not detect that my phone is in flashmode. The point now is, i tried using PC companion to repair the drivers, they asked me to Drag the notification bar down and click Mount, but my phone system is not responding. if i click wait or force close, it will pop back up again. and it wont respond to my touches at all.

Possible solution

Hi.

Actually, I believe the solution is very simple.

Just install "Sony Ericsson Update Service" (alias SEUS) from Sony Ericsson website and it will install the needed drivers.

It happened to me, and I solved it that way.

Good luck!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-FACE:
The installing of SEUS will not do the trick, he has to put the phone in flashmode in order to SEUS to install the driver.

But, SEUS installs only usb drivers. If the problem is ADB101 driver it will not help!

Recently I tried to unroot my EVO and now nothing is right with my phone anymore. I was running synergy rc1 when I tried to unroot. I searched how to unroot and came up with a file from a ruu which I renamed to pc36img and flashed in the bootloader. What that did was downgrade my baseband to 1.39.00.05.31 and turn s-on. However when my EVO turned on it was still PARTIALLY ROOTED. I can run apps that require root and I was still on Synergy but I have an old radio and s-on.

Now what I want to do is either turn s-off and keep root and my phone the way it is or unroot fully and put my phone to stock. What I've tried so far is flash the unrevoked forever and the latest radio updates, neither of which would flash because of E: errors. Unrevoked wouldn't work because of radio being outdated and radio updates require nand unlocked.

I really just want to unroot but I need help here because I cant get my usb port to work so I can't use the computer. Is there a file I can put on my sdcard to fully unroot, and does anyone have a file like this to provide me with? I don't care if its the latest OTA I just want to unroot. If anyone knows a fix to this it'd be great. Please don't say search or why can't you use the computer I just want people that can help me. Thanks

And if you want to know which pc36img I used its the one located in the thread titled "how can I unroot without computer" in the post where the user says I'll one up you just download this file and rename it to pc36img and flash
