If a nandroid doesn't back it up, how do I make a backup just in case?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
You have to make a copy of /efs. Not sure if there are any particular issues you have to take into account. I think it's just make a copy of the entire directory and transfer it off your phone, or to the external sdcard, or both.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
or even better,

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 of=/sdcard/efs.img

I think EFS is p3 - need to check tonight.

Good one. I was going to go ahead and do this, so I searched for info on the efs partition. The only thing I found was I9100 suggesting it was 0p1. So I'll wait till you verify the correct partition for our phone.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinngck1:
The launcher seems not support more than 16apps in one folder..

Is there any hack to increase it to infinit??
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickmv:
I doubt anyone's done that, at least so far.

The general idea is to group together apps that have a common theme, etc.

I'm just poking harmless fun, but do you have more than 16 apps of the same type or function?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
I do. I was annoyed at this limitation earlier today when I tried to group games for my 3yr old together.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordPhong:
this was the very reason why I downloaded the source. One would think enabling this would be easy. Someone tell me how to compile only the launcher. Compiling the entire source takes me over 5 hours.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobile_sensei:
Step 1: Take a hammer & smash your Android Device.

Step 2: On your PC desktop, right click & choose make a new folder, store as many "infinit" aka infinite apps as you wish.

WHY would you have more than 16 apps that have the same function? Kind of redundant/retarded don't you think???
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradsinram:
Cm9 will probably have it;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
Someone is upset today. He said games for his kid
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ka24e:
Solution:

Use the first 2 dock spaces for 16 games a piece, then use the other two spaces for your own stuff.

I'm sure this will come in time, or buy your kid a Nintendo DS... :P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
You guys sure you're in the right forum? The "suck it up and deal with it" attitude belongs in the iOS forums, this is Android. In Android we don't ask "why?" but "why not?"

BTW: An actual temporary fix to the problem is to use Folder Organizer.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] att1cus:
You could also use simi folder temporarily. Free in the market. I am sure there are other alternatives, too.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shockem:
Its for his kid. And diferrent people have different needs. You should take that hammer and smash your own head.

OP: it should be implemented in cm9 or something:) probably through a scrolling folder.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
This desperately needs to be included in ROMs and stock ICS... For now you have to stick to Market apps. I'm using App Organizer

Nexus S (GSM i9020a)

CyberGR Hybrid ICS (5)

Matrix Kernel (15.5)

OC 1000 / 200 (smartassv2)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XK72:
To build the Launcher from source, use: make Launcher2 to build the generic Launcher. To build it for a specific device (i.e. to incorporate device-specific settings and overlays), you should run lunch and select your device before running make. The path to locate the APK will be specified on the last line.

I've never tried to build the Launcher without precompiling the rest of the source prior to, so I don't know if it needs to build some additional components beforehand, which would add some more time for the initial build, but far less than doing the whole system. Make sure to sign your APK to match the rest of your system before pushing.

Hope that helps.

Edit:

The maximum number of folder items is defined by: res/values/config.xml (for those building from source) or res/values/integers.xml (if decompiling) in Launcher2.apk. The integer values for folder_max_count_x, folder_max_count_y, and folder_max_num_items define the maximum number of items permitted in the folder, where the value defined in x multiplied by y equals the value in max_num_items.

I modified the y and max_num_items values and I was able to include more than the default 16 icons, but...

The folder does not include scrolling capability, so once the number of items exceeds the available screen space, they are cut off. If it's possible to incorporate scrolling into folders, we're good to go, but that's beyond my capacity...

I ordered on Dec 2nd. But they just deducted the money today. Just checked my bank account. Then I checked the Best Buy account page and it says "Order Status: 1 item(s) preordered, release date is 12/18/11." So hopefully its progress/shipping? :o

Anybody Best Buyers having the same thing?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SwissyChief:
Isn't BB charging people every 8 days or something? A bunch of people are reporting being charged for their pre-order again I think.

BUT it WOULD be great if this was finally it! I mean, technically the things are suppose to ship out on the 12th for online orders!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Kohawk09:
No change in status for me, pre-ordered the 30th. My understanding is BB puts holds on your account every X number of days, doesn't mean its shipping. lets just hope we get it early next week :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xGary:
Probably not... BB's system systematically charges people. This info is getting old.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] new2q9c:
How did you pay?

I paid with CC and it hasn't been charged. If you paid with a debit card I think it's a normal procedure to get charged every 8 days.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] madmike23:
Oh well, I guess I should've used a credit card then. I'm just used to being charged when its about to ship. And many of times bb uses the slowest method of travel, so I put 1 and 2 together. Didn't know there was a 3. But every 8 day thing is pretty dumb and screw people over who may not have enough since they charging double.

Hi everyone. I use kies to do a system update yesterday, after it the system becomes Android 3.2 and works fine.

However, there is one thing make me confused. I install a customized bootloader and root the tab before, after the update, the root went away automatically, I checked and find the bootloader also comes back to the original version. Don't know why it happens.

I am wondering, with the system update to 3.2, does the original root method still work?

Before you are sure... Bootloader is dead...

1.

Remove battery for few minutes

2.

Be 100 % sure your battery is NOT empty...

Good luck.

Btw.:

I saw this error often in posts from other users... maybe this has nothing to do with Product Code...

Often between bada 1.x and 2.0 change or Bootloader change general...

Thank you all for support

but the problem is not in the battery

I never flash my cell - if I dont have at least 80% power of the battery

Hi

I have my phone stuck at backing up the current ROM. Could someone help please?

I recently rooted and s-off-ed my HTC Desire and installer ROM Manager 4.8.0.6.

I chose Backup from ROM Manager. The phone restarted and started backing up using ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0. I watched it go through the following steps after it stopped:

ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
Waiting for SD Card to mount (20s)
SD Card mounted...
Verifying SD Card marker...
ROM Manager Version 4.8.0.6
12 December 2011
SD Card space free: 850MB
Backing up boot image...
Backing up recovery image...
Backing up system...
Backing up data...
dalvik-cache

The phone does not make further progress... And I cannot stop it using the buttons. When I press the Menu, Home or Power buttons it just switches screens to the progress bar.

Any ideas? Is it safe to remove the battery? I can't think of any other way to reboot it...

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
First of all, NEVER USE ROM MANAGER! It's a bad software which causes more than it solves (how you can see here ;) ). Furthermore, all operations Rom Manager does can be done recovery / GParted.

To your problem: In my opinion the only way out is to remove the battery. But I am not responsible for any damage.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itachi1706:
You don't have to take out the battery and possibly damage the battery. Just press power+volume down+track pad button. It will force the phone to reboot.
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
I tried using setCPU to enable profiles for screen off and the like. It works, but there are some issues.

When actually using the phone, I get constant notifications the setCPU has been given root privileges. Like it is constantly needing to re-ask super user for root permissions.

Anyone else seen this behavior?

Normal.

If it bothers you turn off notifications in Superuser
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
Normal for temp root? I have never had this issue before, I have always rooted my phones straight away. I see the notification pop up at least 2-3 times a minute.

Yes temp root. Perm root is fine because it gets it once and holds it.

[Motorola Photon 4G] outkast22:
my photon only downloads apps when on wifi not 3g. how do i fix it so it works on 3g???????
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
3G Data is too slow to use to download applications, it can take about 15 minutes to even begin to download an application. Sprint 3G is about 10kbps, if that, and that is not fast enough to download an application.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
Umm no thats 1x, I average 600-2800 kbs. You Sir may not have 3g in your area.

To answer the orginal question, really big apps require because not everyone has unlimited data.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Cxpher:
I just picked this up from Singtel. They have the bootanimation.zip in /system/media/ but it was a dummy file. Meaning the bootanimation does not run during bootup.

So i rooted the phone and replaced the bootanimation.zip with the original Razr bootanimation.zip and the boot animation now works fine.

But there is no sound. I downloaded the droidhd.ogg amplified sound file and placed it in /system/media alongside the bootanimation.zip and it still has no sound.

Permissions are 644 just like the bootanimation.zip.

Anyone has any idea how to get the sound to work?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Cxpher:
Actually, i get a pretty strange phenomenon. I used a terminal, became su and typed 'reboot'. With a reboot, i'm able to get the sound normally with the boot animation.

Even if an app reboots, my phone, the sound for the boot animation runs fine.

However, when i hold the power button and choose to 'Power off' the phone and then power it back on holding the button, i get no sound for the boot animation.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Cxpher:
Actually it does work. If i power off and power on immediately, there's no sound during the boot. But if i poweroff and wait a moment or two and then power it on, sound works just fine.

Strange. Timing can be adjusted? I read the desc file in boot animation.zip and it does not say much about the timing. It's supposed to play after loop 2 and that sounds right too.
