That shouldn't happen. Did you change the file using CWM or did you do it while the system was running? And did you preserve the original file permissions and the owner and group?

RE: changing the file from unknown to fix gallery force close

I had the same result and the back up file

created by root explorer placed in that directory was erased. all fikes and folder bare the dste and time of current reboot
[G Tablet Android Development] rajeevvp:
Changing files in /data while the system is running is like editing and saving a file while somebody else is working on it. When they save and exit, the last change made will over-write whatever you've done.

Don't make this kind of change to a running system. Use CWM--it exists for doing things like this.

And, I've no idea why extraneous files in that directory disappear. I created a backup file today morning (GtabCombOver-b3.4.2) and its still there, even after multiple reboots and changes to the accounts.xml file (Settings > Accounts & sync > Manage accounts > account > toggle Data & sync). So are the settings for gallery3d.picasa.

Can someone please tell me which split keyboard is being used in the screens on the op?
[G Tablet Android Development] hikouka71:
i think its swiftkey tablet x
[G Tablet Android Development] kaneelias:
Thank you sir
[G Tablet Android Development] jazzruby:
Hi kaneelias,

It is Tablet Keyboard Pro

There is also a free (limited) version, which is missing some keys/functions, you can view the pics in the Market to see.

[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
Did you download the nvflash from the first link? Redownload it and have it wipe your device clean. You can always copy your backups off the device in clockwork and try to restore them afterwards.

Also, it is not good form to post identical posts in three different threads across two forums at the same time. If it was a few hours and no response I could see it, but it clutters the threads.

Hello, Thanks for a great Mod... I do have one issue, and being the noob that I am, I am seeking help. Every game I install, runs in a small window about the size of 1/9 of the screen... Are there a setting that I am missing?

Thanks
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I forget exactly where it is located, but you want to check/uncheck app compatibility mode depending on what iot is set at now. I think it is under developer options. I don't have my tablet with me or I would check.
[G Tablet Android Development] Abu-7abash:
In spare parts?
[G Tablet Android Development] lasersc:
Thanks, I appreciate all the input!! I will try ASAP
[G Tablet Android Development] TEK112:
I think you are right. I have been flashing like a mad man on my GNexus and everything is different in ICS, so my memory for settings is skewed.

Thanks.

No need to apologize. We have all been there and done that. It is very scary when you are flashing and loading custom software on a device that you don't fully understand and then something breaks. Just know that we are all here to help and if you find yourself in a situation like that again don't hesitate to send me a PM. Best of luck and I hope you enjoy the ROM. :)

Any Help Please

Tried to install this new update 10.3 over my old version...

Tried all methods clean and update..

I even nvflash for 2 times and then applied this as clean install, after that I have reset to factory setting/wipe data and reset dalvak as well.

All trials resulting to not passing the 3 birds screen.

I have tried the old version and it works without any issues.

Any help are much appreciated.

this thread is 9 posts long and contains links to "NO" boot animations just some youtube videos.

I still do not get this clockwork thing. the link you provided has not one download link for clockwork

SO I think the issue is me not understand what clockwork is. I ask this since it appears it comes "packed" into the kernels you download ???

so that means its NOT something you can just "install" ?? its done DURING the root process.

so how do I know if I have it installed or not? (this phone came rooted I did not root it) I rooted my evo and my prevail but not the S2.

I've never been a boot ani. fan, but this one I have to admit is pretty sweet. Hopefully someone can spot somewhere.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MikeC84:
You can just use the new root method that doesn't trigger yellow triangle....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
It is already rooted so I do not want to mess with it and risk messing it up unless I need to

Ran the update but out failed on the clock widget ???

And now it has stopped buging me about it so I am inclined to leave it alone for now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MikeC84:
It is pretty easy plus you can't mess anything up because we have Odin. Odig to stock .tar then use the new root method that doesn't trigger yellow triangle.

No need to get the jig when the new root method doesn't trigger the yellow triangle nor the Odin counter.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craig Capel:
Now I got all of your attention with a vague subject header :D

4 months ago, I bought a samsung galaxy i9000 because, prior to that I was on an E72, so anyway wow, world of difference, but on my I9000, I can play pretty much all the high end games, for now at least, i'm not a serious gamer, so to me, amazing graphics as it is..

At the time I bought the I9000 because I wanted to be plan free, but now my contract on the E72 ran out and now I can upgrade... should I buy a Galaxy S2?

Given that Dual Core ARM processor support for apps is fairly limited, I can't really imagine most tasks requiring more than 1gig of CPU power, I can watch divx, play games, GPS, it's pretty much all perfect, except with the odd couple of hangs the I9000 gets every now and then I love my galaxy so much lol...

So can anyone give me 3 realistic reasons to upgrade?, be as technical as you wish, I know the hardware it supports, I just need to validate my need to buy a new phone :) yes, games will load faster, but still.. they work just fine if you wait an extra 10 seconds for the game to load?..

Reasons for upgrading? please? :)

ok let's reword it a little, what could i /do/ that i can't do now albeit a little laggier and slower, that includes the ICS port for the i9000 :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evildude88:
I own a GTI-9000 myself, and my wife owns a GTI-9100. I have played around with her phone quite a bit and the nicest thing about it is the speed. Everything is snappier, loads faster, and seems to just perform better all around. Not to mention you get a bigger screen. 4" to 4.5" is a decent enough difference, especially for HD gaming.

Couple that if you get the Galaxy Nexus you get factory ICS. No need to root or do anything fancy to get it to work. Plus everything works 100% with full support.

Honestly if I could upgrade I would. I like my wife's phone more than mine. Basically if you really like your GTI-9000, there's no reason a better version of it wouldn't be of value to you. That's how I feel about it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cornario:
Aside from stock ics, camera and better cpu I don't think there's anything else worth noting (except you got a new look :P) But for some games you just can't play it with I9000 like Asphalt 6: Adrenaline HD (I was crying when its price drop to 10c to celebrate 10 billion downloads on the android market T^T) There's more but I think if you browse the market with your phone you will not find it cuz it only show the ones you can play. As for stock ICS, I think Samsung ROM won't beat the CM team's ROM anyway :X
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craig Capel:
thanks for the replies...

you know what, I was curious about what you said about Asphalt 6 (still sounds like a rude word to me lol) anyway, I actually installed it and ran it, it's actually quite smooth on my I9000, but I usually idle around 100-129meg free using a combination of killing event application triggers (eg keeping keeping certain apps from launching on power save features on a rooted device), and advanced task manager..

Anyway, Asphalt 6 is actually smoothish occasionally, it drops a fps and you can see it jerk, but it only lasts for a split second... i also tried 'Fast 5' try that on the galaxy 2, on my I9000, i'd have to say the game is playable at a pinch, the framerate is simply not cutting it...

So, then, I have to upgrade my entire phone for 1 single game then :D lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craig Capel:
look, I'll give you guys an example...

^^ my phone, Samsung Galaxy I9000 (16gb version, 4 months old, came with 2.3 now on 2.3.3, now my 3D graphics score is 1106.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4a-sphr07c

above is the new galaxy nexus, which has a dual core, it has a faster cpu, by rights, it should really own a phone as old as the i9000 fair to say..

but, if you break, it down you'll see that the nexus's GPU power only gives it's a slight boost, 3D 1226 on the galaxy nexus, and on a humble I9000 GS, we have 1106..

Now what gives the impression of a superior score, is of course, double/triple the memory and significant IO/read/writes.., when it comes to Asphalt 6 on the I9000 vs I91000, there's really not much difference on that game...

but when it comes to I9000 and the I91000 for say Fast 5 and next generation games which use the dual cores properly and efficiently, then we will see leaps and bounds between single cores and dual/quad..

But we're all playing the catch up game, and the catch up game really is the I91000 so most games and most programs will run perfectly on the i9000 i should suspect albiet it may take 2x as long to load up, 2x long to run, and only 80% as smooth as the I91000...

Or maybe I just have a freaky ARM processor and everyone elses I9000 is significantly slower GPU than the one i have... no idea.... i might go investigate that now... (after investigation, it's average i9000).... so there you go
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapper.fishes:
You are operating under the assumption that benchmark scores actually mean anything significant.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazevxi:
The Galaxy S and Galaxy Nexus use the same GPU though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anujkhurana:
S2 rocks

you should upgrade to s2 because :-

1. better camera with LED flash

2. bigger display with AMOLED+ display

3. 1GB ram to make it lagfree

4. high GPU for heavy games

5. DUAL core proc...1.2 which can be overclock to 1.5 if you want

6. vast list of custom rom to finish the word lag from your phone

i think they are enough for you...i still have many points!! :D :D

hit thanks if i was helpful to you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craig Capel:
update, we ordered the upgrade.. $29AUD a month with a $4 data plan (we already have 2 phones 2 plans, we don't need to make that many phone calls so the cheapest plan works out just fine for us, since calling each other 24/7 is free)

That works out to about $33 USD a month at the current exchange rate.. $0 upfront for the phone, but... the catch is it will be on a 12month plan, but since this phone will keep up with the competition concerning applications support dual core, I think this phone will be a worthy competitor for playing games on even 3 years off.. maybe near the bottom of the list of the benchmarks, but will be one hell of a player of the high range cheaper phones.... playing even the latest of games i'm sure...

I want to do everything I can to develop for this phone. What I need from the people here is a stock flash able rom. I have made great progress on this phone but but idk how to build stock roms and at this point I'm not sure I have the mental capacity to learn it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lilhaiti:
So...you have made great progress doing what?

There is a Chinese ROM floating around, maybe you can use that.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
LOL...

Without a stock ROM, we have been unable to develop much...

What have you developed, here?

Mostly the community is hacking the stock installed rom, and fixing what Motorola has purposefully broken, but with out a few more pieces and a working sbf, you are not going to get a "Stock" ROM.

If you really want to help out go jump into the bootloader unlock forum:

I use cheesecake 4 times a day every day. If I find something I compare it to what others have found.. What have I developed? Nothing more then a headache. Using the bionic safestrap I have been able to recover from 3 soft bricks. 2 of them using adb to push to the phone and 1 using the restore tool. But i had to remount /emmc to /sd-ext. But I think at this point I am done trying anything with this phone.

One more thing.. what can't we use all the stock files I've pulled from the phone to make a flash able zip?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Seems like you know a lot more than all of us who have been working diligently for the last 60 or so days with this phone.... Why don't you give it a try and see if you can create a flash-able zip.

You can't build a flash-able zip, because you can not zip or tar files on the filesystem that are in use, and the kernel has a ton of files open and locked. the backup software gets around this in a couple ways that we really can't do, and backups are useless to make flash-able zip from. That is why we need the sbf or fxz or source code to make a flash-able, zip or ROM.

That is why we have warned everyone over and over and over, about trying things we post, right now. The information is not to try out, it is sharing of the developers, and for those of us working on actually developing solutions for this phone. There have been so many bricks, because people are not listening.... I am actually thinking of trading my phone with a buddy to get out of this, because I am tired of hearing about all the bricking people are doing, and having to help save someone who did something to their phone that they did after we told them not to.

Unless You Know What You Are Doing Don't Try This At Home. Until we get the fxz or sbf files. I am getting tired of saying this...

P.S. doing work on the cheesecake thing does not make you a Developer. Hell I am not an Android Developer, I am a UNIX and Linux Hardware architect and UNIX and LINUX Kernel Developer, so I am am able to use all that, 20 years of experience on the Android kernel, and I have been hacking and working on phones a long time.

Now I know it is great to try things and learn, but while learning, it is best to try things we say are safe first, then once you are more comfortable with certain things, then try something daring, that you know how to do.

I am in no way trying to insult you, just realize that right now, with the little help we have on the experienced development side of things, it is real painful to get things moving forward when people don't listen, or do things they are not ready for and then keep asking for help when they killed their phone in the process.

Yeah if it comes to anywhere close to the OG Atrix board I am out so fast it is not funny.

The thing is that I am most of the time ignoring these posts, but when you 6 people all did something similar, or like the OP did 4 or five things that messed his phone up, because he/they were impatient, you kind of have to tell them, look if you don't like it, get another phone. Heck the OP tried to say he was helping the cause by doing these things, when it was said so many times don't try this....
[Motorola Atrix 2] lfaber06:
The funny thing is the "OP" didn't do anything he was told not to due.. Instead he/I tried new approaches and have actually been able to recover from a few soft bricks at this point. We get places from trying new things not by talking down to those that try them. I'm trying to help as I own the phone too. I am not in any way "under-educated". I am a .Net developer and I am doing my best in my free time to help the community by opening up this phone to its full potential. Now, Am I impatient.... Hell Yes.. I want CM7 and ICS now. Will I get it now?.. No, but i'm trying to get the rest of you on your way. I cant believe you would try to push someone so willing away..
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
A better way to go about it would be to post your discoveries and share them to help others out instead of demanding things you need.

We aren't pushing anyone away that is willing to help and we welcome everyone that is willing to hel. But when you experiment know that we might not be able to help you and we have no way back to stock. By experimenting we found root,the bionic's bootstrap and we will have to continue to experiment. Part of progress is by finding out what works and what doesn't.

We need to all work together and not against each other. But with that said if you look at the amount of recent posts with people experiencing problems and calling for help is because they didn't do any research before hand and now they are asking for help for something they could have very well prevented by patiently doing a little homework.

With the progress you have said to have made, start a new thread about it explaining the procedures you went about to recover from the soft bricks so others can benefit from them as well. I can promise you we are all very interested.
