[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wavedealer:
Hi all

Got an issue that I just cant solve.

I have a desire, rooted, s-on. Was running leedroid 3.3.3, all was working well until couple of days ago when after a reboot all the content on the SD card seemed to disappear. Strange thing was, it could still be read when mounted.

So, after trying a few things I decided to reflash, so wiped cache, data and anything else I could do via recovery.

Copied the leedroid.zip file to my card, renamed update.zip but now when I try to apply it from recovery I get the below error:

E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (no such file or directory) E: signature verification failed. Installation aborted.

Cant work this out.. people have suggested that I disable verification checking in recovery.. but I dont see that option in the recovery menu I can access?

I wonder if anyone could help me as I am phone-less :(

many thanks

Assuming you are using clockworkmod recovery, this option should be in "Advanced".

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruwin:
Hey!

When you're flashing a .zip rom use the "install zip from SD card" option, not "apply update .zip". The signature is different, so it wont work.

So just try and wipe cache, data, ext, system, dalvik and battery stats, and then install the zip from the sd without renaming it.

What recovery are you using? I suggest CWM for a clean experience.

Also i suggest to put your sd card in a computer and back-up the contents, than format it again in CWM. At lease fix the permissions.

Check the advanced menu for dalvik wipe, battery stats and fixing permissions.

I hope that helps. If not, write here and we will help you.

Cheers!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wavedealer:
thanks for the replies.. i got it working late last night

the problem was that I didn't have the CWM recovery file update.zip on my card.. i had cleared everything and re partitioned the card, so the phone was blank and i only had the rom .zip file

so without the proper update.zip i was unable to get into recovery.

i could not find update.zip anywhere at all for download, but luckily i had an old copy in my dropbox from months ago that i was able to get on my card

then i was able to flash

so.. the lesson i learnt from this issue is always a keep a copy of update.zip

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] terryjohnson16:
I upgraded from a Nexus One to the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 yesterday. I used Mobile Backup Pro, to backup up SMS and MMS messages.

When I signed into the phone, my app didn't get pulled down from Google. Also, I want my SMS messages restored from my Nexus to my GS2. I tried Backup Pro, but I didn't work. MMS worked though.

I am not a fan of the TouchWiz UI. I prefer Vanilla Android.

Everytime I try to restore my SMS messages that I saved from the Nexus One, to the Samsung GS2, the Messaging client on the GS2, starts freezing, and locking up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chib1panda:
Have you tried sms backup from the market?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
that, or if you are using GO SMS Pro (build in) it's such a breeze ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] terryjohnson16:
I used SMS backup. Same thing. It freezes my Samsung messaging app
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mstrk242:
I'd give mybackup pro a try. It doesn't seem to work as well as it used to for applications, but for sms, mms, call log, all that, it works pretty well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] terryjohnson16:
I originally use that. But, it said it was restoring me messages, but only MMS showed up. After that, for some reason, its like Stock android to TouchWiz gives my phone the chills. Its locks up, and force closes on the messaging app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cashyftw:
I used mybackup pro (vibrant to sgs2) with no problems.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
i use this one https://market.android.com/details?id=com.zegoggles.smssync&hl=en

as 2nd backup, just in case the Go SMS backup fails

double the protection ;)

because it sends them to my Gmail account, and i can keep a good log of all my calls and sms, etc

it can restore just fine, no freezing

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Falkner09:
I don't know where to look for it in my root folder, does anyone know where it would be or if it's on this phone?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Reviewers:
CIQ is only on the new phone's starting the amaze to SGS2 not on the Sidekick 4G .
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Falkner09:
Update: I downloaded treve's app onto my broken Sidekick and ran it. it appears that it found no trace of Carrier IQ on the phone; however, as far as I'm aware, different OEMs may be able to install it differently, and we're just beginning to understand it, so there is the possibility that it's just installed in a different folder on this phone, or under different file names, etc. So we should probably keep an eye out for it.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Falkner09:
do we know that for sure though? the company's been around since 2005, and apparently has made a name for themselves among the cell phone barons; surely they didn't just start shipping a product to the carriers. also, the Sidekick is only about 7 months old or so. and i think I saw a post saying it's on some older phones than that... this one may be ok, given that CIQ probably has to be modified for each modified Android version, and the one we're running is pretty unique, but it's too early to tell.

I think we should still keep an eye out, especially if the device gets upgraded to Gingerbread or Ice Cream Sandwich -- the newer OS may add Carrier IQ.

But thanks to all who did the research on this. I am VERY relieved this forced spyware is NOT on this phone!!!

From your screen pics, it looks like you are rooted/ROM'd -- ROMS will not have Carrier IQ. Are you ROM'd or are you running stock SK4G?

Looking for a leather case/holder for the GN (in the UK), not interested in any of the things that clip/slide on to the back of the phone :p

Just something to leather to slide the phone in and out of (no metal clips etc on it)...vertical or horizontal, matters not to me.

Also, what screen protector would people recommend?

Unlike nokia, samsung doesnt seem to make accessories like this for their phones themselves :|

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LOGMD:
i got the ace last week its been amazing til now, it is on 2.3.3 in the box, and i rooted it and added custom recovery for future use,

when i am listning to music (just got a 16gb class 10 card) it plays absolutely fine,

but once the device tries to sleep (screen timeout or lock button) it jumps for about 100ms (no sound) and does this for about 1 second, and continues to play as normal.

and the same happens when i wake the device, its pretty annoying now that i have a 16gb sd card and spend £150 on this phone lol

ive noticed its not so bad without headphones,

today the ace had no music player playing, and i had headphones in, and some music is playing out of the loudspeaker. do you think this sounds like a hardware fault?

anyone else have this problem? or working on another stable rom (2.3 if possible)

EDIT: I think i may have diagnosed the problem, i had 'root helper' enabled on the app widgetlocker, ive turned it off and just running widgetlocker without root functions and there is less lag. i may post to the developer then with this

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Percz:
The original thread was Dev based, about the ROM being released and how stable it is as released. This thread was noob based about how to flash said ROM and if it is different from another, very similar ROM.

Why clutter one thread when you can have two?

Anyway, to answer the question instead of of questioning the question, Yes the basic principle is the same. Once you have the System Recovery installed, it's a case of copying the CM9 zip file to your SD card and flashing the same as CM7, although the way I've personally done it is using Multiboot, so that I can normally use CM7 for "production" but can have a go and see how CM9 is progressing for a few minutes or so.
