Galaxy Nexus Splash Screen

So looking at the Galaxy Nexus boot up sequences, I saw a couple instances where the splash screen was visible and took a stab at recreating it as best as possible. I've got it on my EVO (and this splash should work for the OG HTC EVO 4G, can't guarantee other phones) and think it looks simple and cool, very developer official looking. Same rules apply for flashing this, remove the rest of the filename after PC36IMG, flash in bootloader and you should be fine.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrchilly:
My battery isn't charging with either the mains charger or usb so it looks like I need to send back to 3 under warranty :(

Problem is that I've installed the Cognition ROM (which is awesome!) so I need to somehow get the phone back to stock before I return it. Whatever is causing the charging problem is has also stopped the usb working. So obviously I can't put the files onto the internal memory without the usb :( Can flash it back to a stock rom using CWM by putting the rom on the 'external' SD card?

If that is possible there branded stock roms on the Intratech thread but these all appear to need to be flashed with Odin. Are there CWM versions anywhere?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113928

Incidentally, if I plug the mains charger or usb lead in to the phone while it is powered off it switches itself on and boots up without me pressing the power button? But it still doesn't charge and the pc still can't see it via usb.

Thanks

Yes, I've got exactly the same issues, but thankfully I'm on stock software including kernel having swapped in an insecure kernel for rooting. USB jig worked to reset counter but unable to connect to any pc with any cable in odin or normal. Can do kies over wifi and kies recognised me as having stock and up to date firmware.

Can anyone help me get out of root from this position? The only visible evidence of root to me is the superuser app. Would a factory reset do the trick? Thanks

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duffy1807:
i dont really know much about this area.. but if it was me i think id download the generic firmware put on sdcard.. and install via cmw ... then after that is on , possibly root if its not rooted uninstall cmw then superuser . then take root off.. do full wipes ect... after all this.

only problem is.. your count will show it has been flashed.

am not (100%) sure if it works like this.. but its just a guess and the closest i can think of a way for it to work.. hope you get it sorted ..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Hm, an idea comming to mind about reflashing stock ROM - but be very carefull, got only one shot at this (due to loosing root, so w/o Odin, no way for a 2nd try if something doesn't work!)

Untar an Odin .tar FW pack and convert the .img files to actual raw .img dumps.

You only need the simg2img tool from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1081239

Copy the converted factoryfs.img (should be exactely 512MB) and the zImage to the sdcard via WiFi.

Then flash those two using good, old dd from a terminal:

su
dd if=/sdcard/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=4096
dd if=/sdcard/factoryfs.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 bs=4096

That should drop you back to a stock ROM.

Since you're sending it in for repait anyways, if the above totally fails, just say it broke during a Kies update.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inkyadrian:
You need Odin . Also go to samfirmware.com and download the latest ROM. In that ROM will be ' Low ship' that is the PDA. Put your phone into download mode and run Odin (1.85?). DO NOT SELECT PARTITION. It should see your phone. Select low ship tar as PDA and flash. Nothing else to do and it will be stock.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thespeed:
Isn't it a driver problem on your computer?

You can try to delete the drivers under Windows @ the device manager.

Isn't there a option @Samsung Kies where you can restore the drivers?

I am not at my computer so i can't open the program now ;)

Maybe it's easier to try another computer.

Maybe this will help

Also check the USB debugging setting.

If you want to use Kies then USB debugging must be set off.

@Odin i am not sure which one to choose.

You can find the option under Settings/ Applications /Development/ USB debugging

I'm also a bit confused about using dd from a terminal. I presume this should this be done while the phone is booted up in to Android using the current rom? I'm really starting to feel like a super-noob now :(

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Find a stock ROM that's closest to what you had when you got the phone, i.e. branded or non-branded, version, e.t.c.

Yes, since your USB doesn't work you have to run the dd from a terminal (app) while the OS is running.

Not the prettiest way, but works.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrchilly:
I've tried to get my head round the great suggestion from @HellcatDroid but I'm afraid I'm struggling to figure out how to extract the .img files.

I'd probably be willing to pay someone to extract the files I need so that I can just copy them onto the phone and run the command line bit

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
OK, here we go :)

http://f.lui.li/get_98_fc7b.html

Put the two files from that archive to /sdcard

I tried to flash it like I posted before and it somewhat worked - at least my phone ended up rebooting into XWKF4:

(clicky for fullsize screencap)

The running OS doesn't really like it to get the ground pulled away under it's running feet - just like I expected, my phone froze while running the dd but eventually rebooted by itself (=total crash) into a running XWKF4 (as can be seen on the above screencap).

However there's a chance it might NOT end up in a running OS after that - but since you're about to send it in for repair anyways, tell them it happened during a Kies update - which IMO perfectly fits to the broken USB thing ("Kies update got interrupted due to the hardware fault" << perfect excuse IMO :D)

Anyways, all that said, here's the commands to run again:

su
dd if=/sdcard/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=4096
dd if=/sdcard/factoryfs_raw.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 bs=4096
reboot

As mentioned, you might never be able to make it to the reboot command - if the phone hangs, let it sit there for a while, it might crash'n'reboot by itself, but give it a chance to get as far as possible.

Now, I hope you'll get it back rather soon from repair, for me it'd be a tough time going without my favourite toy.... crossing fingers.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] michelhuy:
I believe the capsule rick is talking about is a magnet, which keeps it in place.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rikc:
A diNovo mini keyboard (with touchpad so it also is a mouse) has a lid (which actually has a function, it turns of the keyboard backlighting when closed). The sgp ultracapsule is a polyurethane case which is 'rubberish' enough to make sure the sgs2 has enough grip and stays in place on the opened lid.

So holding it in your hands you have a small netbook and might even be able to do some office work on it.

It does topple over onto the lid due to the phones weight when you don't hold it sadly ;-)

I'm currently using a Xoom WiFi running on Honeycomb 3.2, and it's been running fine ever since I bought it. If it's not a big problem (although I expect it to be), I'd recommend trying a factory reset.

Seriously though, try that only if the app was there from the day you bought it, and disappeared later. Alternatively, you could try updating your firmware, though I doubt that would help as much.

Access to contacts does not mean the app is trying to "steal" your privacy data. You're not mentioning the app's name anyway but it would be nice to do so - there might be an explanation. Let me give you an example of completely harmless app behavior that requires access to your contacts.

Keyboard - some keyboards might offer a contact as a word suggestion when typing an email.

Nanny - a babyphone app, designed to call a predefined number in case your baby starts crying. The app offers to pick a contact instead of entering it manually - that's why it requires an access to your contacts.

Photo app - contact access is required if the program offers an option to share a photo with your friends
