Below are 3 scripts to be flashed in clockworkmod that will clear data for you. Not format, just wipe, and in some cases is preferable to a format.

Blue6IX_A01_Wipe.zip

MD5: a08a353689e5d534c685648a53f889e9

This will wipe /cache, /data and /system partitions. Does not touch the sdcard. Make sure you have a ROM on the sdcard to flash after running this because you won't have one on your phone after you run this wipe script.

This first flashable zip, A01, is a good one to flash in-between changing ROMs. Flash it to remove the old ROM, and then you can flash your new ROM on empty partitions instead of overwriting or depending on the ROM author to have wiped/formatted for you.​

Blue6IX_B01_Wipe.zip

MD5: 0f8a34d7a19dab9d28a6eae1bab0c6c2

This will wipe /cache and /data partitions. This simulates a factory reset, so flashing this will make your ROM rebuild the /data partition based on what is installed in the /system partition. It's the same thing as doing a Factory Data Reset from in the settings menu, without the option of wiping the sdcard.​

Blue6IX_C01_Wipe.zip

MD5: a8c57de781b2abfca2dfcdcae57d439c

This one will wipe the /cache partition and also wipe dalvik-cache. Use this one if you are having problems with specific apps, especially when changing to a different version of an already installed app.​

Okay, so after looking at this post i've gone and pulled the unlock codes for all the doubleshots within my reach.

Either through terminal or an adb shell, get root and type:

strings -n 8 /dev/block/mmcblk0p6

or...

Grab the partition with a dd command and go through it with a hex editor - in so doing i've found some curious things to be posted later.

The unlock code is on line 8920 if viewing in 16-bit hex mode.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pantherz:
BIG thanx to Blue6IX for such a great thread indeed!! my question for you and anybody else who can help is what are the code numbers for the long-press function of the 4 buttons on the front of the phone and not the keyboard. I want to change them and I’m not exactly sure how.

I know the original function for the quick-press is like this:

# physical keys

key 102 HOME

key 139 MENU

key 158 BACK

key 188 FUNC_4

I’m trying to change the long-press function of those buttons. Also does anybody know what the button for the key number 107 goes?? It says that key 107 = ENDCALL but there is no physical button for that function anywhere 0_o

That system unzipping/installing loop almost gave me a heart attack! I was rereading this thread to see what I'd missed and preparing to shout for help (without touching anything...) when it finallly moved on.

and, after following directions, bootloader reports itself as 'relocked.' which isn't the exact result I was hoping for, but it will have to do.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
If you will follow the "Blue6IX" link in my signature you'll find a tremendous amount of the things that have been lost here. The "Mirrors..." link will take you to a ROM download page that has a link for BulletProof 1.1 and under that are a couple of OC/UV kernels written for his ROM. It really being a debloated & tweaked original 1.28.XXX, they should work just fine. Happy Flashing!

i read Blue6IX’s post “How-To: Restore to Stock but it so comfuses me ( plz help me ) ?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
It's not too bad. You can do it. All you need to do is go into ADB & type"adb reboot bootloader" & then "adb oem lock" and it'll relock the bootloader for you. While you're in there write down or remember the Hboot version & then click on the

Blue6IX link in my signature. At the bottom of the 1st post are your choices. Dwnload the one you need, place it on you sdcard root & reboot to your bootloader. It'll do the rest if you just answer a couple of questions.

Good Luck.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Really? Since last DECEMBER? Man you're patient! Anyway, it's been forever since I've flashed one of those but can't you skip a function? The best I remember sometimes it will hang and you have to skip when it does that. Once it says it's unzipped & updated it HAS & you can just push it to the next function. You have to have the right one though. You can upgrade it but not downgrade it.

Here are the important details to know:

- Phone is branded with Rogers (Canada)

- I'm using a Fido sim card

- I used Omnius to use Fido on the phone (Certificate replacement method)

- The phone was running 2.3.3 and decided to root using the method in this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1115542

- Downgraded the phone fine to 2.3.2, used Gingerbreak to root the phone

- Until here everything went fine

- Oh yeah, battery was fully charged.

- Ran the system update, the update screen appeared for about 1 minute.

- Screen turned black and phone could not turn on anymore

- Tried to reflash 2.3.2 with user data erase but no luck.

- Removed the battery for 5 minutes, same problem

- I can see a green light on the side when i plug my phone and the PC detects it. I can also reflash using the flash tool.

Could the Certificate make the server think that my phone is different than what it is?

My phone is dead, help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan3009:
Hello! I just bought a Galaxy S2 and it comes with the famous pink spot on camera, so i've decided to return and ask for a new one.... after receiving the new one... this one has the pink spot too! but i found how to solve that issue...

So, after some days with phone i found that the screen looks yellow tinted on the left side...

And yesterday i found that when you shake your phone to the front hardly... it makes a weird noise a "thick" like something is loose inside of the phone on the camera area... I've tried removing battery sim card and sd card and shaking the phone again! there is that noise...

is that normal? can some1 try it shake ur phone...

idk what to do... if ask for a new one... or send it to care center...

plz advise
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warfanax:
Did you ever think that that sound might come from volume and power button? Try holding the buttons and shake again. Those buttons are neither screwed nor glued so a little noise is normal.

Mine also nakes a little sound but if I hold the buttons it stops. I have no problem with it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan3009:
also tried... try bouncing your phone not side to side instead front - rear and hardly... thats when it sounds....

im really pissed off my 2nd phone and it's faulty...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan3009:
anybody there??? plz help!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
This is a very rare scenario as most of the people(including me) dont have this problem.

If your phone is under warranty just ask for rma pointing out the problem.

if not then fix it via service center.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan3009:
Have you tried shaking your phone front/rear side hardly? it sounds like something is loose inside... anyway i think im gonna ask for a rma
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
I have tried it, nothing as such.

Also did you try opening the battery panel and clean it with some vaccum cleaner?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] account2002:
I can reproduce this on my phone, but it requires special kind of move (like hammering) so I think everything is ok.

It's possible that this loose part is vibration motor (or something else used for vibration - I don't know construction details of SGS2), so it's designed to be loose in some directions
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan3009:
+1! thank you so much! I dont know what yo do... i dont know if ask for a new phone... or keep this one.... home some1 else can confirm the rattling noise...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] account2002:
I wouldn't call it "rattling". It's just single sound during sharp front to rear move. So for me it's simple . We haven't bought rattles but phones, so let your new purchase to demonstrate the potential by using it like a phone. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infrapotter:
I think it makes a camera. When you move backward and forward moves the camera lens and it can rattle ..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tainka:
how did you solve the pink spot issue?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXFearXx:

I also hear that noise when iam shaking the phone. I talked to my friend that have HTC desire he say he have same problem oh that phone too, so it might be a camera or mby gsensor.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrSlump76:
Hi same strange sound here:

i found that if you enable the camera, the sound stops.

So:

camera disabled -> tick sound shaking the phone

camera enabled -> no tick sound

So, it's obivious that it's a camera related issue, almost in my case.

My camera works well, but have the issues:

pink spot

framerate loss during low light filming (using -2 gain to sensor solves this)
