Why bother with CWR fix permissions as it can cause other issues (such as losing contact pictures in Messaging) - why not just edit the file with Root Explorer or ES Explorer, save and then longpress on the file and select properties and set all the permissions there? The file needs all nine boxes ticked for permissions. Also to make sure the file saves if you are using ES Explorer (not sure with Root Explorer) before you edit the file you need to go into settings and make sure you tick 'Mount system as writeable' otherwise it won't save.

Hi there,

You're right - it's more save only touching the permissions of gps.conf file. I will leave a note in the intial post to ensure people keep this in mind.

Thanks and Greetz, Stephan

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshtb86:
ive been getting tons of force closes, wifi "error" in settings, apps freezing and locking up, market and google apps not recognizing my accounts. tried factory reset, wipe, davlik, repartition, and reflashing gtabcomb 3. no change.

is it time to nvflash to stock and start over? anyone else have issues like this?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RonPorreca:
I too have run into the same issues you are reporting when I was running gtabcomb and flashback 10. I am not going to say that this will fix your issues, but I can verify what happened for me. The other day I unluckily (or luckily I guess) got stuck in a CWM boot loop. To resolve the issue I NVFLASHed back to stock, wiped data and reflashed flashback 10. Since then the performance of my tab has improved tenfold (at least). I have had one instance of the wifi error, but have had far fewer FCs. It actually made the tab much more usable. If you haven't already, I would suggest an NVFLASH to start with a clean slate.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshtb86:
interesting. i completely wiped tablet, repartitioned, wiped caches, dalvik, reflashed and so far, so good. if this fails, ill nvflash to stock. thanks!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] White_Pointer:
After being pretty disappointed in NFS Shift and Hot Pursuit (glad I got them while they were free), largely because I can't actually customise the controls and create my own button mapping, I thought maybe some people here may know if there are any decent racing games available that actually allow you to create your own button maps.

For example, I want R and L to be accelerate and brake. I want gear up/down and handbrake to be mapped to face buttons. So far no racing game I've tried has let me do this.

Anyone know of any?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] antEris:
+1 on the shoulder gas and break. I can't believe neither shift nor hot persuit allow custom mapping. Its absurd. Not to mention that they have no congruency in controls between the two games.

First of all makesure you have terminal. Load it up and type su and a dialogue will popup press accept. Then type CD sdcard after doing that type ls then a list of files and folders will show. Choose the file you want to move to sd-ext to make room on your sdcard for other things. Then type mv filename /sdcard/ phone will pause while moving the file. To move backfrom sd-ext just type CD .. then CD sd-ext then mv filename /sdcard/ If anyone wants to add to this they can.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aleq:
Hi guys, I'm in awkward situation. I'd appreciate any tip what to do.

Intro:

I might have got some (small) amount of water into the phone, so I removed the battery, dried it for some time and then started it. Everything was OK, but anyway I decided to get it cleaned in service to be sure no corrosion appears later. I wanted to give them phone without any private data, so I decided to root, backup, wipe, give it to them and restore afterwards.

So I rooted with Odin and cf-root-sgs2_xw_clk_kf3-v4-0-cwm4 (I have XWKI4 firmware and this was mentioned as the right one for KI4), everything went fine. The phone was working afterwards. So I booted into recovery and backed it up with nandroid, copied the backups and the content of external storage to the computer, wiped the phone in recovery mode and gave it to the service. They cleaned it.

Today, I wanted to restore the backup, but here came the problem. Everything seems to be running, the backup restore took up to 10 minutes, it showed restoring system, data, displayed file names looked real, etc. No error, so I restarted.

However, after restart, the Android intro wizard was shown, I was asked to enter google login and only standard applications were shown. But wifi got connected, flight-mode was restored upon first launch (I used it for backup), wallpaper was restored. In Titanium Backup, I can see the list of all previously installed applications, but in grey and crossed. I reinstalled some of them, but most of them were crashing. For some of them, backing them up, uninstalling, reinstalling them back and restoring only the data (in Titanium) helps. The rest is not crashing at least, but the data are gone. I also tried Titanium to open the CWM backup, but that works for CWM v5 AFAIK, so no luck here either.

What could have happened? Is there any way how to solve this or is it simply lost?

Some background: Bad things happen together as you might know, one of my SoDIMM modules in laptop failed during this operation. system.img was damaged as a consequence (MD5 hash showed this). I found this when I tried to restore the backup for the first time. So I made a wipe, then made another backup, compared the system.img. I saw the MD5 hash for the new system.img is the same as for the old backup so I took the system.img from there. I was lucky this was not data.img. I'm certain I'm restoring with the correct files now - MD5 hash check runs just fine in total commander and nandroid before restore.

I also remember that my first try was without restored external storage, I did put there only the clockworkmod backup. But I believe this would not cause such situation. To have as much information as possible, I did this - wipe data, restore backup, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache - start. Problem - wizard appearing. Restore the external storage, get into recovery, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, restore, reboot. Wizard again :(

Thanks for any tip. I'm slowly getting accustomed to installing and setting up everything from scratch. I might install custom ROM finally. But lost data and settings are painful.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roukie:
Did you use CWM to backup and restore? I've had problems restoring when I backed up on CWM5 and tried to restore on CWM4. It looks like it copies fine but doesn't. Even if you're sure you have the same version, if you use CWM5 app and click restore in there, it reverts to CWM4 for restore (for some reason...) so you have to reboot into CWM mode from the app to get CWM5 to 'work'.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aleq:
For both backup and restore I rebooted to CWM Recovery and navigated using volume up/down to "backup and restore". By the way ClockworkMod Recovery is v.4.0.0.2
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aleq:
Anybody, no ideas?

Is it common that nandroid is unreliable?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
No, I had to use nandroid backup several times and every time everything worked fine for me.

First I thought that you forgot to wipe cache partition, but you wrote that you have done it.

Did you tried to wipe cache (and Dalvik cache) before restoring the CWM backup?

If that does not help, try to fix permissions.

If that does not help either, try to flash a stock ROM, then flash CF-Root kernel (or similar with CWM included), then try again to restore your system backup.

As all your apps are still in Titanium Backup, you can uninstall all corrupt apps after restoring your system backup and restore all user apps (+app data) using Titanium Backup.

Maybe you have to reboot your phone twice after restoring the system backup.

And only after the second boot, you will see all your restored apps.

It is just a guess.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aleq:
Thanks all. I have no idea what was wrong, of course I tried everything - multiple restores, reboots, wiping cache/Dalvik cache, etc. CF kernel failed on me. Luckily not completely, as the data were there, only the apps did not restore. So I installed the apps using Market. They crashed upon start, but I found that if I back them up with Titanium, uninstall them and then restore, it works. Using these steps, I was able to recovery almost everything.

I have used other Kernels since then and never had that issue anymore.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Did you try using advanced restore from within CWM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aleq:
If I am not mistaken and that's that functionality that allows you to restore only particular part of backup, then I believe I tried (even though I'm not 100 % sure). I did try fix permissions also.

I'm blaming incorrect / faulty CWM recovery. It just puts some uncertainty into the process in my eyes.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
You are the seccond person I've come across with that problem. It's a really strange issue you are facing.

When you tried to restore, did you have the same firmware and cf-root on your phone as when you made the backup?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aleq:
Yes. I did backup, then wipe/factory reset and gave the phone to service shop (for cleaning after some possible moisture exposure). I have received it in the same state, so I restored - but the apps were missing. I should have tried a different kernel with slightly different CWM recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marynius:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] bigfau:
I never had TwLauncher make my phone reboot, but I really didn't use it either. Swype needs updating. You can uninstall it with Root Explorer. Then you register at Swype.com and follow instructions to update Swype to the newest beta. Sorry I didn't see you're post sooner.

Hello, I'm new to posting here, certainly not new to XDA. :)

So... get this, I have two EVO 3ds in my house, mine and my gf's.

Mine is running Eternity ROM, hers is stock, NOT rooted.

The Youtube app wont play videos(just gives the spinning loading thing until it gives a generic error about being unable to play), and Youtube mobile in the browser won't work. This only happens when connected to Wimax. Wifi, 3G, and 1x work fine. All other data transfer works with 4G. All other Flash works on both our phones.

I actually took my phone into a Sprint store and the associates were having the same issues on Wimax(they had EVO 3Ds too).

Any ideas? The sprint rep wanted to reset my phone to factory state(she "(had) a feeling it would work" lol.

Thanks guys!

Can Anyone please help me? I have an unrooted phone, ZTO 2.3.3, from Brazil.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] xiga:
Hey guys,

I've been having issues with the Widgetlocker lockscreen recently, and was wondering if any of this will ring a bell with someone.

I recently flashed the KJ2 2.3.5 ROM (the XEU non-wipe Frankenstein one), and i've also flashed CF-Root and then the Speedmod kernel. I'm in the UK, on O2 (debranded to XEU) and i have no issues with the phone whatsoever. I even get great battery life. It's just this damn widgetlocker issue that's grating on me!

For some reason when i wake the phone up and try to unlock it by using the slider (i just use the default 'Android' one for unlocking - the only other things i have are a couple of widgets for missed calls & texts and a battery % one) a lot of the time the slider does not repond to touch. It doesn't always happen, but maybe a good one out of every three times it happens. And the weird part is, if i then just wait about 5 seconds, then it suddenly responds and i can unlock the phone. Obviously having another 5 seconds on top of the already present lag when pressing the home button is not good, and because of this i'm thinking of not using WL anymore.

I've been through all of the settings, i'm almost 100% sure it's not something in there. Can anyone help with this?

Cheers guys.

Hey, just wanted to post that i finally figured out what the problem was.

I'm using an .apk to help with the touchscreen sensitivity. See vitalij's thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=18999801#post18999801

Well it turns out on 2.3.5 vitalij's .apk has some issues with the most up-to-date superuser. The solution, so far, isn't great but gets the job done, is to uninstall the .apk, and then re-install. The important part is not to click on 'enable service' in the app! So basically each time you want to use the app you have to open it and hit 'apply' on whatever setting you need. The setting will work until you next turn the screen off. For me this workaround is actually ok, as the only time i ever really used it was for the odd game, so i'm happy to just do it manually on these occassions.

Just wondering how many of you have updated the leaked 5.7.893 weather you were bone stock or rooted. Is it worth updating or should I wait for the OTA? I have no intention of rooting at this time.

I don't think anyone can be 100% certain that when the final OTA drops, we'll just be able to accept it and install.
