[General Questions and Answers] Che34:
Hi,

I'm a neebie but i think i have the answer to your question.

With a nandbackup you backup your ROM, not your apps. It's used in order to restore your old ROM if you have a problem whan you change or upgrade it.

If you just want to backup your apps, sms, contacts use an app as Titanium Backup or Mybackup. I use Mybackup since two years and i never had any problem.

Hope it will help you
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
Nandroid backup is the same as a system image on your PC. It's a snapshot of the entire system, OS+Apps.
[General Questions and Answers] baySF:
Aright thank u buth. Ill try mybackup as im not worried biut my rom. Just worried bout my apps and such.
[General Questions and Answers] sweetnsour:
when your making a nand backup, you can also backup your apps by making a nand+android_secure backup. or you can use titanium backup to back up your apps

Hello xda world :D

Define "blue recovery" in this thread please...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1026893

Is "blue recovery" the stock recovery on the phone, or is it an old version of the CVM recovery?

Thanks in advance, you guys!
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
Blue recovery in this statment is regarding stock recovery. It's highly unlikely you will ever see it. Probably best to keep the thread starting to a minimum to avoid confusion btw. Feel free to keep asking any questions in your original thread.
[Samsung Mesmerize] LazerOrca:
will do... sorry about that.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FULLTIMEIT:
Hi Guys,

My Nook Color with the latest MIUI port, its getting constant FC

I appears to be the keyboard thats causing the problem

I am getting both Acore and Media FCs

I have flashed plenty of roms before on my Captivate , and have no idea why factory reset is not even helping with this issue

anyone know a good solution?

Thanks lots
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sincitybronze:
Did you try wiping dalvik and fixing permissions through CWM?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FULLTIMEIT:
yea tried both
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdcrim:
Before you flashed, did you format sytem, data and cache as well?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flojo73:
don't know if you fixed issue. I had same problem. I installed Rom mgr updated RM for Nook then flashed it through RM with the Wipes selected.RM re booted and did the rest for me. =)

Hey!

Here you GO

CHEERS! :cool:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] chinoyray:
Flash the zip for 2.3.3

That's the one I used from that very same thread to root my phone.

I attached that zip in case you're confused. Just flash this through the recovery. (POWER BUTTON + HOME BUTTON)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] foxl3y:
Hi!

I'm currently studying android and it's security. I was wondering if, like on the iPhone, it was possible to root an android device using a web browser directly from a web page?

And if it does not exist, is it still conceivable to bring one up?

Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jake33108:
Maybe for some older ones where it's easier to root, but for something like the Inspire the process is just too complicated to do remotely probably. It would be pretty cool though!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] foxl3y:
Thanks for your answer.

The Android version is 2.2. Could it be possible to only use, let's say an SD Card, and do all the rooting directly on the phone?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dirk:
Isn't Unrevoked web based? And Android 2.2 has a few one-click root methods iirc. The apps can be found on this forum although you'll have to search for them.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mschmiedel:
I think that the correct answer would be: "It depends"

Why? Just because each manufacturer has different ways to lock their bootloaders. Some models are very easy to root and others (Motorola is a good sample) have been quite difficult.

In my case, I have rooted some phones just with the SD card and no PC (I think it was the Evo using Unrevoked), but others like the Inspire need some other steps and you will need to use a computer to do it.

What is a fact is that with Android it's quite different than with the Iphone; with Iphone you have 1 manufacturer, and 4 different phones (generations) plus their firmware variations. With Android, you have many different manufacturers with different firmware options, that makes it much more complex to say that you can get a "universal rooting method"...

Regards
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 1337GamingNinja:
With some android phones there is an application that must be run in order to root. Because of the methodology and the requirement to do more than just run a single executable, i.e. scripted tasks after, there is no true web-browser method.

The closest thing you will find is an on-device application which will give you root by performing all the necessary actions in the browser. With that respect you can download and install the app on-device without a PC, but beyond that there is no web-browser method.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Gusar321:
Rooting and unlocking the bootloader are two completely different things.

Rooting Motorola phones is no problem whatsoever, there's one-click programs out there that to do it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mschmiedel:
Well, you're right. Normally I root phones to install custom rooted ROMs, I rarely root a phone on the shipped ROM, so yes, rooting is different.

BTW, you can temp-root almost any Android phone with Visionary if that's what you're looking for. :D

[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
It will be months before there is an official update that matters.
[LG Optimus 3D] Alex Atkin UK:
I disagree as V10d was vitally important, on V10b I was somewhat regretting my purchase due to the worthless 1080p vidfeo quality.

I certainly would appreciate a V10e to improve still photo capture quality rather than having to hold my breath until October, as it seems right now the quality is better taking a still from 1080p video than taking an actual photo is.
[LG Optimus 3D] cinemano:
Could yu send or paste a photo of a 1080p still post v10d update? How do you go about getting such an update? (i want to buy the phone but afraid of the bad reviews of 1080p, so i got the galaxt S2) If i looks good im returning the S2 :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] De_Andi:
Hi there!

I have some problems with the second (top) microphone of my I9100.

This mic is used for voice recording, voice command, camera video sound and speaker mode during calls.

In speaker mode the mic is working great! :D

Using all the other apps especially video recording the mic seems not to be working at all. No sound is recorded. Also the voice command app fails. :mad:

I already tried several things to get this mic working, but nothing helped.

(Factory reset, new FW, camera FW update)

Is there any possibility to change some HW settings in the service mode main menu?

Or something else I can try?

Thanks for any help!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
I think that Mic, the top one, is the Noise Cancellation one, it's not for the above purposes, is it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] De_Andi:
Hi ithehappy!

Thats not completely true.

I don't know if it is used for noise cancelling, but it is definitely used for video recording and the speaker mode.

Andi
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
OK, Thanks. I really didn't know that. But I am sure that it also works as the Noise Cancellation mic.

Regards.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
i know with an app called tape machine pro, you can specify which mic you want to use, the noise cancelling one, or the main bottom one, and each works. you should try on the SGS2 and see if you can get the noise cancel one to work.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] thebeardedchild:
I still haven't received the update...I assume I just open the market and it'll start updating when it has it right?

Does it matter if I'm on Kenn's beta 4 and not any sort of official OTA build or anything?

I did *#*#checkin#*#* and that pushed it to my phone like almost instantly.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] thebeardedchild:
Hmmm, my checkin was successful, but still no update... That's weird that I wouldn't get it yet, didn't they start pushing it to Atrix users like 2 or 3 days ago? And there's been no word that they stopped due to bugs or anything?

Got the 5.9 update automatically on mine. Works fine. (Using LeeDroid 2.2.0 ROM).

I think that's because gMaps is system app on sensation and if you don't have root, you are not able to update or reinstall it. You could maybe try tu install it through HTC Likes but i think there will be the same problem.

So it is sort of a valid thread. And all the haters just feed off of each other.. So sad :(

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l33ch0r:
Greetings,

the battery of my HTC Desire often has a very high temperature. Between 30-40°c.

Isn't that way too much? Compared to my Desire HD, which has between 25 and max 34°c, it appears very high to me.

The Desire isn't overclocked or something else. It runs on LeeDroid, but an older version.

You guys think there is something wrong with the battery?

Besides: the heat isn't at the place where the battery is located, it's more like downside, where the microUSB can be plugged. And while charging, the temperature raises...

Should I consider buying a new battery our do you suggest the problem elsewhere?

I appreciate every helpful answer.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilijevski:
Man it's apsolutely ok ... i had 48-50 yesterday on the beach ... and the heat you are talking about is processor and it is ok as well ... it needs working temperature and more you use it more it gets hotter
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l33ch0r:
First of all: thanks for your answer

Of course it gets hotter the more I use it, and yes, makes sense, it will be the processor.

But what irritates me is the fact, that the difference of temperature between Desire HD and Desire is that big. I never got the dhd over 35°C, no matter how much I use it.

And since I know, that the battery could inflame itself (no matter how probable that is) I am really concerned about it.

Besides, how hot might the processor be, if that's what causing the heat, but the battery on 40°c+ isn't felt...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
Newer manufacturing process and better energy efficiency ensure that. Don't forget that Desire Snapdragon is Q1 2008 piece of hardware.

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Scratch0805:
Looks good, I paid for a different one called ripple lock which is also nice...... only problem with these is you sometimes get a double lock issue where the main lock screen pops up first they have supposedly found a fix for it in the paid versions, and also some you have to unlock to end a call which is annoying. The double lock still happened to me a few times with ripple lock even after the fix. Would be nice if some bright spark could make the image a complete replacement I.e delete the old lockscreen altogether or explain how to, sadly I'm not that bright spark though.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] louiscypherbr:
Well, this is not a replacement, just an lockscreen app.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] androidino95:
use an app called no lock - it disables your default lockscreen (its free on market) i also use ripple lock, free version tho :)

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] ArbiterGR:
I can confirm that. I had weird behaviour in general with agile lock and i had to ditch it for Ripplelock which comes from the same developer until they fix those bugs.

Having a sense 3.0 based lock screen though is imba :P
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] calyxim:
My phone acted weird too. Good idea, bad coding...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] louiscypherbr:
It is because, as I said before, this is not a replacement, but an app. I dont think that is a good idea to use one app as lockscreen, because things can be weird, like phone calls or alarms.

Whenever I use the search or go directly to the browser it won't load a page. The green status bar starts to fill in but just stops and hangs. Sometimes but very rarely if i go to book marks it will load a page but it's super slow and completly un usable.
