I've noticed that when I restore apps after upgrading from 3.6.x to higher versions. I would lose Daemon Controller and other apps that are included in the rom. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. This is usually how I upgrade:

1) Complete Backup using 4EXT Recovery

2) Superwipe

3) Install Rom

4) Install Add-Ons

5) Backup and Restore -> Advanced Backup -> Restore Data

This would restore all my apps and settings to the way it was before I upgraded. Would using Titanium Backup preserve the apps that are included in the rom? I would like to keep all my apps and settings as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

If you are simply going from 3.6.x to 3.6.8 ,there is no need for a super wipe,you only have to install the ROM.

All your data and settings will remain intact.

You will only lose any mods you have installed.

These can be re-installed after your first power down/power up.

:)
[HTC Sensation] StormUltimate:
Make it like me ;)

1) Complete Backup using 4EXT Recovery

2) Superwipe

3) Install Rom

4)Make a backup of Daemon Control with Titanium Backup

5) Install Add-Ons

6) Backup and Restore -> Advanced Backup -> Restore Data

7) Restore with Titanium Backup your Daemon Control

You restore with the methode all your apps or homescreens (lol homeworks :S !?)...

8) Have fun :D
[HTC Sensation] krandal:
@malybru: Thanks! I thought you always had to Superwipe or it was recommended. I'm just worried about going from 3.6.8 to 4.1.x. Can I use the same method of restoring making that jump or are the backups not compatible?

@StormUltimate: Thanks! That should work. I'm not sure why I didn't think of that lol.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Super wipe WILL be necessary to go from 3.6.x to 4.1.x.

3.6.x is a 2.3.4 based Sense 3.0 ROM

4.1.x is a 2.3.5 based Sense 3.5 ROM

You only need to super wipe when you switch from one base to another.

Personally,I would not use CWM backups when changing bases.

Backup in Titanium Backup,and only restore user app data.

Absolutely never restore system data.

:)
[HTC Sensation] krandal:
If I only restore user apps, does that mean I'll have to manually input the settings for all my system apps? Homescreen, Wi-Fi Settings, SMS, MMS, etc.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Why not try Go Sms Pro.

It's a free app from the market.

You can save those settings in TB.

As for wifi,homescreen etc. yes,you have to do those manually.

You only do this when you change bases.

+ it only takes ten minutes.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomcat5:
I'm outside the Sprint store with my mom right now. She has an LG Optimus S which is by far the worst android phone in existence. It drops every call within 30 seconds of it being placed. She doesn't want to deal with the crashing, dropping, freezing, and force closing that it gives her. The technician is looking at it now and the store says that at most they will have us pay for a new device in the same model. This phone is horrible and she doesn't want that. What can we do so she won't have to pay 400+ dollars for a new phone? She doesn't have insurance and our upgrade eligibility comes in 2 years. I've already put it back to Froyo after the botched GB update and it has had its data wiped several times. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, you guys in the Epic community are epic.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermish2000:
Hello everyone forgive me if I am posting in wrong section. I just have a query thats why I am posting it here.

I have a Samsung Galaxy GT-P1000 (Firmware Version: Froyo 2.2, Baseband Version: P1000DDJJ1, Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9 root@SE-S605#4, Build Number FROYO.DDJK3).

This night I just checked the firmware update of this device through Samsung Kies(VERSION_2.1.0.11112_41_7) and Kies shows me :

___________________

Current firmware version: PDA:JK3/PHONE:JJ1/CSC:JJ1 (TML)

Latest firmware version PDA:JPA/PHONE:JP4/CSC:JPA (TML)

___________________

does this mean a Gingerbread upgrade?(if yes then is there any other way to flash this same update without kies) or what it means??? can anyone help me about this??? I am really confused right here:confused:

Thanks in advance...

HERE IS A ATTACHMENT OF KIES SCREENCAP:
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justin^Tan:
AFAIK, JPA is Gingerbread, it's what overcome 4.0.0 based on. I never update via kies so I can't help you there. about any other way, you can use odin and get your region's firmware on samfirmware. thats what i do on the early flashing when cwm still not available. the step is explained on many threads throughout xda, u can search for one
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermish2000:
@Justin^Tan :thank you very much for your reply....I will obviously going to look what you said..thanks..

but the thing is I am confused because I dont know what it means by (TML) and in in our country internet is not that fast yet so thats why i was looking for this update as stock to flash without kies support....

so still i am looking forward if anyone sure know about this.......:(
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelsonoski1972:
Hello Bro

DDJPA means Gingerbread 2.3.3 for Indian region.

I advise u to update it via Kies.Just wait for it to finish.Do not disconnect ur tab midway during update.This update will download about 450 MB data.So better do it with atleast 1 Mbps speed plan.Otherwise it may take a long time and there may be temporary disconnections with samsung servers.Then you have to start again from scratch.[With my 2 Mbps download speed it took about 30 minutes and first time after downloading about 250 MB kies lost connection.Then it started the process again after asking me to confirm it]

Flash and enjoy Gingerbread.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermish2000:
@nelsonoski1972,

thank you for your valuable information. I dont have a internet connection of that speed. the internet speed is really poor in the whole country thats why I asked if I can do it manually without kies. and what do you mean by lost connection then it started the process again after confirmation. if there is a connection error or server problem on the flashing process will it come to previous rom? just to be sure that there is no risk of bricking even the process stops on the way...:)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelsonoski1972:
If there is a connection error,kies will inform u and ask u to update again.Ur tab will now be with previous froyo firmware[The one with u have started before].No risk of bricking is there.Onlything,NEVER disconnect the cable during update process.[UR computer also should not crash during the update!!]
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermish2000:
Thank you very much nelsonoski1972 you are lifesaver. atleast now i can try the update...thanks again man...:D

P1000 DDJP4 OR DDJJ1 CSC and Modem file

can anybody give me P1000 DDJP4 OR DDJJ1 CSC and Modem file download link or upload please...

I uploaded my Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 to DDJP4 but it only shows the PHONE:P1000DDJP4 other two fields are blank (MODEM and CSC)...:confused:

please if anybody provide those files it will be helpful....thak you in advance.

NB: I flashed JJ1>JJ4 via odin with just P1000DDJP4.tar(PDA) file. it stuck on samsung logo then I flashed dbdata.tar then it started normally in DDJP4. now the other two file are blank.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelsonoski1972:
Told u so!!!

@Mistermish2000

I told u to update through Kies.

Well,now u r in the same boat.

I upgraded to DDJPA GB thro kies.Then i tried so many things and had to return to DDJPA GB through odin.

Now i am also having the same problem like you.

I consulted with two of our best Tab devs here and they could not solve it.

One thing:Tab will work 100% and you do not have to worry about that.

Only drawback is that kies will not recognize ur tab anymore.

NB::D:D Do not worry about kies support.DDJPA might be the last update[99% sure] for indian Tab users .

How does one go about testing APKs?

Maybe using a sandbox environment or a virtual machine. Any recommendations?

Maybe using a live-android device and placing it behind a sniffer to watch for phone home traffic?

What methods are other people using?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
You could use an anti-virus app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] District:
Which Anti-Virus app do you like?

However; I am thinking more along the lines of how TreveE found Carrier IQ spying, or when Fnorder discovered Dolphin Browser spying.

My main concern for the Android community is when I see random forum members posting APKs. I see this happening in development threads all the time - maybe the majority of the time the APK is what it claims to be; however... I fear malicious posters using android forums as a launch pad for virus, spyware, malware, keyloggers...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seelions:
A Couple Thoughts

Perhaps monitoring network traffic with an app such as 'TrafficStats Lite' would provide the start of a bit trail.

Then if suspicions continue, reviewing logs could be facilitated by something like 'Log Collector'

On a rooted phone using 'Terminal Emulator' and 'BusyBox', you can search right in the logfile from your device, such as with:

$ su

# logcat | busybox grep STRING_OF_INTEREST​

adb also supports logcat.

Hope this helps!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] W0nk0:
Hi wizards,

my new Lenovo A1 has developed a weird tendency to **** up its internal SD card. This device has an internal SD (mmcblk0p5) and an external one.

After a while (I suspect it may be an app doing it, but I don't know yet), when it boots, it doesn't recognize that the internal SD is getting mounted. Apps like camera which require an SD card fail with an error complaining about it. The SD card DOES mount to its regular mountpoint, but probably too late in the boot process, so that the kernel assumes it hasn't mounted.

The only way I can fix it is to unmount it and reformat it from adb shell (using mkdosfs). Since the GUI thinks it isn't mounted, it doesn't let me mount it over usb.

Obviously, since it clears the SD, that's not desirable. I have run logcats, and I do see that the vold and MountService run into issues, but I'm not skilled enough with the depths of the kernel to figure out what exactly is happening.

Can anyone here help me figure it out? I do have some Android and Linux skills so I should be able to provide logs and shell command outputs as needed.

I would like to keep this tablet, but if I have to back up and restore my SD card every other day, of course I can't.

Thanks in advance,

W0nk0
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] W0nk0:
I actually found out what's wrong:

When I boot my Tablet on battery power, no SD card mounted. Camera not working, Evernote not working, etc.

When I boot it with the AC adaptor connected, it boots without problems!

I kept having the problem with my exchanged device - as soon as I installed Evernote! Not before. For some reason, however, I now have it running under Cyanogenmod with Evernote installed.
