Kernel is stock no under nor overclocked, btw what's the modem's role on the galaxy s 4g can this be the issue, I have never changed it but what if I do, can it help in any way, thank for all the help... :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
The modem is the radio for your phone to communicate with the cellular service. People change the modem file to see if they get better speeds in their area. Check the dev section, there's a whole thread containing just the modem files to flash.

I don't know if it will makea difference but it certainly couldn't hurt to try.

When i flashed stock rom back it dident change back to SPL3.03, i still had

HSPL 2.08, had to change it back with HSPL4. It dident give me the error you

have but tought it might be worth a check.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
it means you used a stock rom that isn't correct for your region and provider.

nandroid backup AND successful restore?

zip flashing is not tested or not working?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
simply not tested, i expect it to work but i'm not sure which zips are compatable

(this is also true of cwm4.0 OR because of 5xx roms being different. I am still examining them, if you wish to test, try using superuser7.zip with cwm5.0)
[Dell Streak 7] JugglerLKR:
i've tested superuser7 with cwm 4 on 506 and it worked, at least i got root ;-) but had to flash stock recovery back... gonna test cwm5 with superuser7 on 506 tomorrow on friend's ds7
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Next release of CWM will contain dual sd card support (like on the s7), I will wait for it to stabilize before building a new version.

Also going to build for the s10, but that's slightly unrelated
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Uploaded new beta, based on cwm 5.0.2.7 which has dual sdcard support built in.

USB mounting does not work, it is a known bug

.android_secure is not backed up, as i've never had a need for it I cant even test it. If someone that actually uses it can test it and post results i'll look into it.

Edit: Not an issue, it's automatically backed up apparently, just as much HC cannot use it anyway

Now it should have all the functionality that was included in dj_steve's version of CWM 4.0.

If a couple people can go around testing all the features in it and making sure everything works I can move it from beta to being release worthy.
[Dell Streak 7] cdzo72:
TheManii, I see everything working except for mounting the USB which we know is a known issue, besides that it all seems good

EDIT: Ok now I am having the same issue as Mystical here below me. I can't flash from the external sd where I had all my files for flashing like themes and such
[Dell Streak 7] Mysticales:
Issue for me is I tried to use a external SD card witch files to flash, it claimed it couldnt mount the sdcard. Tho the internal one it accesses fine when using "choose zip"

Also the USB Mounting, yea, that wouldve been nice to have working. =)
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
That's a known issue in this cwm, i'm not sure if it's cwm itself or cwm on the streak.

If you click external sd a couple more times it will eventually work and keep working for that session,

does installing zips work fine? That's the main thing that still needs to be tested before I can say it's release worthy
[Dell Streak 7] JugglerLKR:
some reports - superuser7 flashed ok.

but after some browsing through menues cwm beta2 stopped working - press on power button only shows empty CWM screen.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
That might be the hidden feature, did your screen say "back button disabled"?

If it did just scroll up or down until the screen says "back button enabled"
[Dell Streak 7] JugglerLKR:
i don't know, had to reboot through pinhole.
[Dell Streak 7] Mysticales:
Yes I flashed Honeystreak R8 just fine. Flashed it from a zip on the internal sd. Factory reset worked fine too.

I have seen that back button disabled thing too. But doesnt really matter, was able to do everything.

My question is, can I use nandroid? Now that I have HC and so, was wondering if it backups the same?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Nandroids from 50x or HS r7 or newer roms ON cwm 5.0 should work.

Nandroids from CWM 4.0 dont work period, the data portion nandroids are broken, and the data portion is pretty much the entire point of nandroid.

Nandroids from 2.2 wont work as HC changed bootloaders.

Nandroids from HS r2-6 wont work since it's partitioned differently.

I'll move CWM 5.0 to official in a couple days if there's no new issues beyond the standing ones.

[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Do you have the mac version of fastboot?

I dont provide it because I dont have a fresh copy to give out, goog never handed out pre compiled version with the sdk.
[Dell Streak 7] Gravityrat:
I have r15 for MacOSX. Driving me crazy. Had this same problem when I first rooted my streak. Can't remember what I did to remedy it. Once I figure it out I will let you know.

[Dell Streak 7] esincho:
I could never get my streak to show in fastboot on my Mac. So I use vmware fusion. On windows 7 I was able to flash thru fastboot.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
If you're trying to fastboot to an undetected device (that you're sure is connected) use it's device id.

so "fastboot -i 0x413c <rest of the commands>"

I believe the s7 is also 0x413c just like the s5.

Help with Nand Backup needed.

Just flashed Honeycomb 3.2 with no problems. (Thanks guys!)

Tried to do a nand backup (CWM 5.0) and I get the following error....

Attempting nand backup

E:unknown volume for path [/sdcard]

Can't mount /sdcard

I've searched the forums but have had no luck finding a resolution.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: We're good. Option to backup to internal SDcard worked.
[Dell Streak 7] EwanG:
Sorry guys, but while I have rooted and flashed every other Android device I've owned (Nexus One, Viewsonic G-Tab, LG Optimus V, and Motorola Xoom), I can't seem to get past square one with my Streak 7 4G.

It came with HC already installed, but I would like to root (at least). I have downloaded the Fastboot+ADB file, have extracted it on my computer, have gotten the Streak into fastboot mode, but I can not convince Windows 7 (64-bit pro in case that is the issue) to install the drivers, and so no luck doing anything else. Help?
[Dell Streak 7] cdzo72:
Yeah, I also use 64 bit but Ultimate and at first it was a nightmare. Have you installed the Dell Sync software to make sure you have the correct drivers, because that's your issue, it's a simple one, but in the beginning I pulled my hair out for several days until I got my laptop to play nice with either of my Streaks, the 5 and the 7. I installed the Dell Nero PC Sync software, got the drivers installed, uninstalled the useless software suite and haven't had any problems since. Hope this helps
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
CWM 5.5.0.4 is out, but I cant build it as it's on the ICS branch. 5.0.2.7 was the last version on the GB branch and hence the last I can sucessfully compile.

The ICS branch changed something up so that when I switch branches it produces many errors, but switching back works fine. 5.5 simply wont compile on the GB branch as it likely uses support files that depend on the ICS branch.

I dont believe it include any changes relevent to the S7, I might be able to get usb mounting working on the next version but it's not directly related to 5.5.

At that time I will also port/attempt to port CWM5.5 to the venue and S10, at least the venue depends on changes included in 5.5.
[Dell Streak 7] dansen926:
Rooting the DS7 has been streamlined so well by you guys that I was able to get through the process faster than rooting any of my other devices. Thanks so much!
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Currently researching usb mounting in cwm 5.0, attempting to get usb mounting to work on the S5/CWM5.0. If that works out I will release a new version of 5.0.2.7 with usb mounting working and some sd card fixes

Edit: got it working on the s5, it might simply not be possible for 5xx/HC compatable ones as it might not export the flags CWM needs (because it uses MTP mode and does not support USB-MSD anymore)
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Managed to get CWM 5.5.0.4 to compile now, will port it in a couple days to the S7.

Unfortunately it still will not contain USB mounting due to the stock kernels not supporting USB-Mass Storage mode. It's a limitation of the kernel I may not be able to get around without a modded kernel
[Dell Streak 7] exebreez:
@Op What are the benifits of 5.5? :D
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
For the s7, not much really. I'm porting CWM5.5 to all devices and the S7 is just recieving it to be kept up to date.

Even if it is just to keep the 7 up to date, those of us with 7's appreciate the effort!

Any chance you could port the new Touch Based CWR?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
What's the source repo for it?

I can attempt to in my free time, but thing is I dont have that much to sit down to do a single big project.

Same reason I havnt had a chance to port CWM 5.5 (though it's giving compile issues).

If anyone is interested in attempting it themselves I can post a copy of the makefiles I used to compile 5.0 if they dont wanna wait however long it takes for me to find time to do so.

[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
No, Koush is making the official touch with his own code.

What do you need to know to port your current version to ICS?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
You mean to port the current one to the ICS beta?

I believe everything needed is already in the metadata used by nvflash to repartition it (ie the new partition map) besides that it's just the new bootloader and new kernel.
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
K, would love to include a port of your CWR to our final build, once that comes someday and maybe Koush will release his source for touch by then.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
I dont plan on installing the beta any time soon as I dont have time to repartition my S7, it usually takes a dozen or 2 builds till I get something fully working.

Most I can offer right now are the makefiles I used to generate CWM 5.0, though they dont work with making 5.5.

hi themanii

your recovery solves the "password problem on HC factory reset" , thanks
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
It doesnt fix it per-se, CWM 4.0 is bugged when it comes to fac resetting, CWM 5.0 merely fixes it by reformatting correctly.

Android cant tell the difference between a corrupt /data partition and an encrypted /data partition.
[Dell Streak 7] niuniek24w:
Welcome. I wanted to do a backup and when I go in a backup option I get the message mount sd card fail. I tried the backup option from internal sd card and the backup works. Possible to somehow do a backup on the SD card? Let me add that when I come in and do advencer mount / sdcard also have a message: mount sdcard fail. Can it be repaired? Sorry for my poor English.:rolleyes:
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:

[Dell Streak 7] niuniek24w:
Format the card to FAT32 via a card reader.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Can your device see the mem card while in android?

It might be something about your card or the slot on your device.

Try reformatting it either on a pc or on your device until it see it i guess.
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
I thought that CWM 5.0.2.7 problem with mounting external_sd was a know problem and I believe that it's even mentioned earlier in this thread? I had the same problem under HC. CWM 4.0.1.4 doesn't have that problem. Neither will perform a Nandroid backup under ICS beta4.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
This CWM5.0 isnt compatable period with the ICS beta, if it actually worked on it something went terribly wrong.

I looked at the source files, and I dont believe there are any inherent issues with the sdcard. Doesnt mean that there's no issues at all though.
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
Stock HC, CWM5 can't mount the external sd, CWM4 does and will do a Nandroid backup. CWM4 with ICS beta4, fails Nandroid with "Can't mount /data!" but in Post #14, you state that it's broken. Never tried to restore a Nandroid backup because my goal was to switch between stock HC and the ICS beta4 but since Nandroid backup from ICS beta4 fails, so does my goal.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
That was before I rechecked the source files, and it seems to work correctly.

DJ_Steve has his own builds of CWM, mine were based on his but it's not really related anymore, mine are intended for stock 5xx, his are for HS/ICS-beta. The HS one isnt compatable with ICS-beta either.

None from mine are compatable with his and vice-versa.

ICS-beta/HS/5xx are not compatable with eachother at all as they're all partitioned different.

Summery:

Stock 5xx: CWM5.0 only

HS: Bundled CWM4 only

ICS-beta: bundled CWM only

the HS and ICS CWMs arent cross comptable like stated.

I cant speak for HS/ICS but stock 5xx cant support usb mounting due to the kernel itself not supporting it, I need someone to make a custom kernel specifically for CWM5.x to add USB mounting back. I do not expect at all to support usb mounting till someone makes a kernel mod to reenable USB-MSD at the kernel level.
[Dell Streak 7] niuniek24w:
Welcome. The unit sees the card at the android and I support it. I have three on each card and the same thing happens. I wanted to reformat it into CWM and get the message: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk2p2:mad:
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Does your card have multiple partitions? I have not tested CWM 5.0 with multiple partitions, I removed the stuff for that as you cant normally use them on the S7

My stock HC 514 at the time with CWM5.0 fails to internal sd with a "Can't mount sdcard" IIRC and the external sd wouldn't mount. CWM4.0 works fine.

ICS-beta: bundled CWM only??? ICS beta4 comes with CWM installed? If so, I never heard or read this before. I installed CWM4 afterwards. Would this make a difference? Nobody at TR contradicted my post stating that the Nandroid backup failed.

[Dell Streak 7] NewYorkLaw:
I am not a newbie to rooting, but just got this dell streak7 yesterday.

I successfully adb'd 5027 onto it, and then noticed that I proabably needed 3019, so I did that one instead (stock 2.2 froyo).

I still boot to the stock "recovery" screen, not one of the ones I pushed onto the device.

I tried oneclickroot method, while I had the device "fastbooted" with adb access, and it said it rooted me, and it appeared as though it worked.

Device still functions normally, but rootcheck (joey kim) says it is not rooted and I'm stumped.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Pete
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
Did you select Option #2 from the recovery screen? That should get you into CWM. Not sure about your rooting problem.
[Dell Streak 7] NewYorkLaw:
Funny, as I came to update this, I see your reply. Yes, I had hit #2 in the recovery screen, and it kept hanging. I rebooted and retried a couple times and eventually it just took.

So now I have CWM 3019, but no "root" according to the root-check utility. Do I still need to flash something from this CWM recovery screen?

Thanks,

Pete

EDIT:

I tried Flashing superuser7, which congratulated me on being rooted, but it seems to have done nothing.

Pete
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
It really doesn't do anything till you run an app that tries to use permissions. You will then see a pop up saying that it's granted superuser permissions.

Thanks, but I have been trying - the two programs I have been wanting to install say there's no root access. SetCPU and Titanium Backup.

[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
I have Titanium Backup also but you have set the permissions usage in the options menu first.

fastboot not working

Ok, either im missing something or fastboot isnt working. In either case, I have the password problem and really need to get around it. I have been able to us nvflash, can this be installed using nvflash?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
It can be flashed via nvflash, but proceed at your own risk.

Are you using the right button combo? And is your battery charged to +60%?

You cant enter fastboot mode if your batt is too low.

OK, I figured it out. Put the cwm image into my nvflash folder and opened the text editor for the restore batch and changed the text to

"nvflash.exe" --bl bootloader.bin --download 9 recovery.img

changed the image name to recovery

went into nvflash and flashed the recovery and it installed perfectly

Now re installing streakdroid........

Hopefully No password issue this time.

[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
I'm not sure what point you're at now, but if you're sure the rom itself is installed properly but you're getting the password issue: do a fac reset from CWM and that'll clear it.

CWM 5 installed, i went into it and cleared everything and did a reset. reinstalled the rom from my sd card and then did a pin reset. when I tried to start the device, it bootlooped. So, I did a pin reset, and went back into recovery and it was back to CWM 4. I dont get it.

Yes, my battery is charged

I finally got the cwm 5 installed, but can't get anything except the ICS B4 to run on it. Its simply not ready for everyday use.

Half of my apps dont run properly.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Finally updated CWM, and to 6.0.0.6 to boot.

Known issues:

SD card mounting still doesnt work, and it's not fixable without a modified kernal

Nandroid backups can choke if your /data or /system's lost.dir is very large.

You can attempt to fix the latter issue by either:

Cleaning lost.dir manually

Back up with an external utility (such as titanium backup), fac resetting, then restoring everything

It's not a bug specific to the CWM/S7, there's no changes at all so it's unlikely due to a bug on my end.

It's not fully tested, so you are recommended to back up with 5.0.2.7 first if your data is mission-critical.

Tested nandroid backup/restore and it seems to work (with above caviats)

Edit: Also made a test version of CWM-touch 6.0.0.1 Recovery img

It is currently set to the equivilent of HDPI, so it is not very space efficient.

It's completely untested beyond the ability to boot

2. Software upgrade via update.pkg

3. Factory Reset
