You can Dump the system using the below guide:

1) Install Android SDK or simply adb

2) Download busybox for Android & copy it to the folder where ADB is located

3) Launch Windows console (cmd) and go to the directory where busybox is with the "cd path/to/the/file" command.

4) "adb devices" <- Is your device detected ? If not, install HTC Sync // Of course, before you have to plug your device in... (Sync mode I guess)

5) "adb push busybox /data/local/busybox

6) "adb shell"

7) "cd /sdcard/"

8) "chmod 755 /data/local/busybox" (something like that)

9) "/data/local/busybox tar cvf dump.tar /system"

10) When it's finished, you will have a normal error like 'tar: error exit delayed from previous errors'.

11) Finally check the root of your SD card, you will find a dump.tar file,

Try this

I'm not in Texas and received the 3.2 OTA but won't update until there's a Root solution.
[Acer Iconia A500] speeddaddy:
I heard they are pushing out the update to only the good looking people first.They look at you thru the camera on your A500 and decide how you rate, So I expect to get the update anytime now:D
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
This is obviously NOT true.As I have not been updated First.

The truth is for from the real truth. Giggles

[Acer Iconia A500] ve6rah:
Well by that logic I'd be about dead last... maybe I got updated early because I had something covering my camera? ;)

In all seriousness there doesn't actually seem to be much logic behind who does or doesn't get the update and in what order. reports of updated devices are coming in from all over the world, but sometimes machines sitting next to each other don't get it at the same time (had a dealer report only half his display units saw the update, the other 2 didn't yet)

Most likely if you wait it will appear, but if you are really impatient the OTA update can be found in this thread

But be warned, there's no going back if you update, you can't flash a lower version after the update, and you can't yet root the update.

I'm on the Mikg 2.1 + 3.0 rom, and ran into a problem trying to restore my backup after briefly trying out another rom. Using AmonRA, after restoring my backup it loads like normal but when the lockscreen comes up there is no ring or way to unlock the phone. Does anybody know what happened? Is my backup no good? Going to have to reload the stock rom to get back into my phone.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
Just flash the rom over your setup now, fastest way to fix it for right now. Or boot back into recovery and wipe cache/dalvik
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelthebassplayer:
I guess I will switch back to clockwork recovery since I have used it to restore my stock backup before. Don't know what happened to this backup that I made on AmonRA, but if it doesn't work I won't be using it anymore.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lil_bono:
I'm having the same problem. I have done multiple nandroid backups with Amon_Ra that are not restoring properly...

I don't flash over anything critical, but it's becoming an inconvienience.

Are you saying that CWM is not doing this?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jensen567:
Hi all, I installed Nil's Business GingerSense 3.0 V2.2 on my DInc last night (first time ever flashing a ROM, been rooted for awhile though). I know in the descrition it states there are 3 keyboard options, I was wondering how I go about switching between them, I see no Text Box option in settings, or under language and keyboard options.

On a side note the enter to send option in HTC IME mod in language and keyboard settings does not seem to work, and moving the cursor into the middle of a word or sentence to edit is not working quite right, the cursor moves where i touch then jumps away. It seems like it is trying to enter text selection mode. Anything I can do about that.

Besides that I am loving this ROM, makes it feel like I got a totally new phone. Here is a link to the dev thread.

I fat-fingered deleting /system/bin/recovery and accidentally deleted /system/bin/reboot instead.

Now what do I do?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] LinuxBozo:
Two choices:

1. Do nothing. You won't be able to reboot from the power menu or adb, but that's more of an inconvenience. You can still just shut the phone down and boot back up again.

2. Just pull it out of the Infused zip and put it back in place.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bcbh:
Thanks! I'll try pulling it out of the Infused zip first.

If I'm not able to get it reinstalled should I be safe with going ahead with installing Infused anyway?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] 9Lukas5:
If you aren't keeping your current device configuration (because of flashing another rom after unlocking bootloader or anything else) the simplest way to unlock is to flash stock 2.3.3 rom, root it and use the bl unlock plugin from latest flashtool

Hi guys, cause it was asked for, here is a how-to to unlock bootloader without reflashing a 2.1 firmware what means no need of reinstall your current rom after unlocking bootloader.

In the archive with the unlocking files take care about the following:

the semc bat is for x10i and x10a. But only if you haven't tried any simunlocking

the setool2 bat is for all those have simunlocked using the setool2

if you don't know it, or not sure about, have a look at the 2nd post, there you'll find a tool to test it.

for those doesn't fit any of those two critericas, don't try to unlock bootloader with this steps/files linked here

Things you need:

the bl unlock file from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1253277

Kernel up/downgrade for flashtool from here:

Kernel downgrade

Kernel upgrade

a custom kernel for unlocked bootloader to flash after you have unlocked it successfully

If you haven't all the listed things on your computer, then first downoad all neccessary files I have listed above before you go on with the guide how-to do it!!

Please make sure you have enabled usb-debugging in your current rom before starting with this!!

flash the azuzu kernel downgrade ftf with flashtool

disconnect usb cable, press power button until phone vibrates shortly and immidiatly connect the usb cable again (it is supposed to be stuck at SE logo)

start the batch file for unlocking bootloader, cause it says press any button before it starts, it won't start unlocking until you press any button

now wait until flashtool recognizes your x10 (if flashtool doesn't do anything, check third post please! thx)

close flashtool and then press any button in the cmd window that the unlocking process starts (please close flashtool, instead the bl unlock cmd and flashtool are constantly killing and restarting adb!!)

after unlocking is finish you have to flash azuzu kernel upgrade

now power on phone to check if the phone is starting after the unlock (if you are using a custom kernel yet with the bypass method and get stuck in a bootloop enter xrecovery and clear dalvik-cache, then your phone should boot up again fine)

If you aren't seeing the se logo at turning on phone, but directly the custom kernel logo, you were succesfully. If you want to enter xrecovery you have to spam the back button now if the xperia logo appears instead of the se logo.

TOOLS

For testing if you are ready for unlocking bootloader or not, use this tool:

s1tool.7z

If you can find semc simlock certificate in one of the last lines from the output, you can unlock your bl with the *semc.bat file

If you can find anything with setool2 in one of the last lines from the output, you can unlock your bl with the *setool2.bat file

If you can't find any of these two and see instead s.th. like unknown simlock certificate or similar, you can not unlock your bl. In this case, first simunlock your bl with setool2, then check again with s1tool.

s1tool can also relock your bl if you want to make use of your warranty.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] 9Lukas5:
Installing Flash-and adb drivers for x10 (!they where updated with the 2.3.3 update!)

1. open the drivers manager of your pc

2. connect phone in flashmode (without running any program like flashtool, seus or pccp)

3. check if there appears an unkown device, which wasn't there before (if not go on, if yes read under the line in this post further on)

4. no unknown device? Good

5. turn on phone and connect usb cable again and check again for unknown devices

_____________________________________________________________________________________

If there is an unknown device, download this archive (it contains the 2.3.3 adb and flash drivers)

1. In Flashmode is an unknown device: Go to the archive and install the ggsetup-2.2.0.11.exe file you find in there.

2. After turning on there is an unknown device: extract the archive and search with your pc's drivers manager manually in that folder for the drivers of the unkown device, then they should be installed.

3. Now check again like I described it above the line for unknown devices, if you can't see them now anymore, try again to unlock your bl.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] davelinders:
What is the difference between bootloader unlocked/kernel

and bootloader locked/kernel?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jukyO:
No, it does not mean you can use any sim card. It means, you can flash different recoveries, ROMs, HBoots etc...

You are not judged to one ROM, simply put.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] 9Lukas5:
1. This only unlocks your bootloader, not your simlock

2. The advantages are:

that the custom kernel is loaded directly which is a more stable way to use the custom kernel

your phone is starting faster than with the bypass method cause you don't load se kernel, kill him and then load your own kernel, you load your own kernel directly

doom is testing it atm and then releaseing hopefully the kernel with inbuilt recovery, so if you for examply format system, recovery isn't deleted, cause it's inbuilt in kernel
