[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I'm going to ignore your first paragraph. I'm a adult and will not tolerate being scolded by you. I'll talk however i want whatever i want. if I make any further comments on this I will end up getting banned. Don't talk to me like that again.

Secondly, I have tried going back to stock (several times in fact). This isn't my first Android device. It is however my first one without an SD card. I believe that it is looking for the SD card and getting confused at certain steps when its finding the internal memory and not the SD card...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I'm using the CDMA version. I'll try it and report back. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
No dice. It was the same version I had installed but I tried or again anyway and got the same error...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nbeebe24:
Wait, so you did try the method I linked you to? None of my nandroids have all the files you've listed, and I get the exact same messages when backing up. I get a md5 mismatch and that guide fixes it every time
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] forelli:
Why don't you try to flash CWM again? First within From and if no dice then with ADB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I've done it probably 40 times though ROM Manager and maybe 6 times with ADB...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spitefulcheerio:
Have you tried adb backup instead? You might be right about cwm having trouble
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I have not tried that. I've never had to do that so I'm unsure of the steps for backing up and restoring...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spitefulcheerio:
The commands are adb backup and adb restore. You sound like you're well versed in adb so try that and post up
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I'll have to try tomorrow. Do the backups then get stored on my hard drive somewhere?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simplistian:
I just restored my CWM backup yesterday without any problem with the CWM recovery from ROM manager, I have a GSM GN.

The "Android is upgrading" dialog only appear if the dalvik-cache is required to rebuild. Is it appearing every time you reboot?

wait are you verizon (cdma)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
Yep
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rp1783:
Bumping this, because I think a lot of people are having this issue, myself included.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ogdobber:
I think this is only a problem with the cdma version, right?

from recovery go to advanced and "report error"

then go to rom manager to send the recovery.log to clockwork
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I've done this multiple times. I keep doing it holing we will get an update to CWM that fixes it....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djlah:
No. Beside vaffanculo403 from CDMA version that encounter this problem. It's also happen to mine which is GSM version. meant both CDMA & GSM version also having same issue. seem like we had send multiple recovery.log to clockwork but no newer version release to solve this issue. I also post this thread on CMW *GSM* Edition thread in Development forum but nobody help :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
Which is exactly what I mean by it falling in deaf ears. I even sent Koush a message on twitter about it and didn't receive a response.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
A lot of people probably aren't helping because they don't have the issue you are talking about. Take it or leave it: this is what I would do if I were you:

1) Copy everything you want to keep OFF your device;

2) Trash all your previous nandroid backups;

3) Download the latest stock ROM for your device from Google's stock image page and extract ALL the files into the same directory as your fastboot executable (extract the zip within the archive as well). Also download a stable version of CWM for your device;

4) Boot into fastboot mode and plug into your computer;

5) Open a command prompt in the directory with your fastboot binary;

6) Make sure you computer sees your device: fastboot devices

7) Erase your ROM: fastboot erase system

8) Erase your boot image: fastboot erase boot

9) Erase your data: fastboot erase userdata

10) Erase the cache: fastboot erase cache

11) Erase your recovery: fastboot erase recovery

12) Flash the ROM: fastboot flash system system.img

13) Flash the boot image: fastboot flash boot boot.img

14) Flash the data partition: fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

15) Flash CWM: fastboot flash recovery name-of-CWM-image-here.img

16) Reboot: fastboot reboot-bootloader

17) Select recovery and boot into CWM;

18) Now try a nandroid backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djlah:
thanks for advise. I'll give a try. thanks again. hope it's work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tundaman:
Hi, my official first post. I have the GSM GN. rooted and flashed stock 4.0.2.

I am also having the same problem with the error while creating the backup.

Here is what the screen says when the backup stops.

@nbeebe, so are you saying all your backups only have 4 files?

boot

data.ext4

recovery

system.ext4

and you just create the last two files from the instructions in the link?

Sorry for the noob questions. Ive been with Android since N1 and NS but this is my first time rooting my device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Is everyone that is having problems using ROM Manager? If so, I highly recommend you uninstall it, and do things through fastboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I've tried both ways...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Did you follow all my steps here from the beginning, and in sequence? If so, does the back-up in step 18 still give you errors?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ogdobber:
I sugest you start over, like efrant posted.

And don't take any short cuts on the way up e.g. auto root, root kits, etc

reading the forum, more people have problems when they don't do it the proper (traditional) way...

maybe it just is a pebkac issue, I don't know
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
Not yet. Haven't had time but I can tell you that I did reload every thing with Fastboot before trying to get it to work but the same thing happened. I will try again though...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tundaman:
works

vaffanculo403, I had the same problem as you.

I think the problem come from how I transferred the files from my Nexus S to my Galaxy Nexus.

We know it hangs on ".android_secure" so I looked up what that does and its just a folder for storing apps on SD card. So I deleted the ".android_secure" folder, and it backs up no problem.

During the backup process it will say something like "/sdcard not found skipping" "/.android_secure not found skipping" "generating md5"

"Backup complete. "

try and see if it works for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djlah:
great. I follow the same and I got:

No /sdcard/ .android_secure found. Skipping backup of applications on external storage.

Backing up cache...

No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext.

Generating md5 sum...

Backup complete!

So now, manage to get all the 6 files backup as normal:

boot.img

cache.ext4.tar

data.ext4.tar

nandroid.md5

recovery.img

system.ext4.tar
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
What do you mean by "how you transferred files from you NS to your GN"?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
THANK YOU! Deleting that folder worked!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ogdobber:
haha, drag and drop... well I'm glad you got it;) I vaguely remember someone with a similar problem like this from the N1 forums now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vaffanculo403:
I knew it had to be something stupid cause it was working for so many other people...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tundaman:
yup, thats the last time I ever do drag and drop any ole file.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dparm:
Back in November of 2009 I was done dealing with AT&T's horrid network in Chicago so I gladly paid an ETF, sold my iPhone 3G, and snapped up a Motorola Droid. It was a phenomenal device that I knew I had to own once I played with it. I bought it the day it came out. Two years later it is dying a slow death. So after months of waiting, I went to a VZW store today and tried a Galaxy Nexus for myself since it felt like the logical "upgrade" from the OG Droid. It was very underwhelming with its mediocre build quality (too plasticky) and ICS just didn't blow me away.

I'm really at a crossroads on which phone to select because I feel like nothing out these days can hold a candle to my OG Droid. I'm even looking outside of Verizon at this point even though I'm nervous about that being a "downgrade" in terms of network quality.

The only thing that strikes my fancy at the moment is the Skyrocket on AT&T. Tried one at the store and the phone felt solid. Worried their network will suck just as I remember but an old college friend who is a store manager for them said they've really made some big strides lately.

Still considering the Galaxy Nexus merely because Verizon's network has been so good, and because so many people I know are on Verizon. The phone itself is pretty forgettable and not worth the price, especially since I'd need the extended battery.

The Droid 4 is coming very soon but I absolutely loathe Motoblur. I hope the phone is still metal+glass instead of the Bionic's cheesy plastic. It's the only other phone I'm actually interested in seeing.

So, hivemind, what course do I need to take? Priorities in a phone are build quality, RF performance (call quality and ability to hold onto weak signals), and battery life. AOSP or ease of flashing a non-bloated ROM is the other must-have.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droider95:
are u looking for performance or want phone for music and net?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
If you like the feel of solid build quality you should check out an HTC. Verizon has the Rezound, but it is not rooted yet. AT&T has some good ones as well, such as the Vivid. HTC usually has a solid dev community as well.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monty11ez:
have you looked at the droid 3? Since you liked the Driod it is the logical upgrade.
[HTC Wildfire S] XDA_h3n:
Hello WFS Users!

Could we atlease get a ETA of the s-off. I'm hoping till Christmas :3 Should we complain to HTC also stating its nearly Christmas. If we could get a unlocked bootloader, we can flash radio-type of expliot via recovery or fastboot so we can get s-off and also progress on more ROMS (which I'm hoping to do.) :D But HTC will never UNLOCK BOOTLOADER.

[HTC Wildfire S] insink71:
s-off = unlocked bootloarer

The title makes little sense to me. If we unlock the bootloader... STOP right there. You have s-off when you unlock bootloader. Flashing a hboot [a new bootloader] is quite risky. Better have your RUU on stand-by and realize there is a real possibility of bricking your device. Of all the things I've flashed, hboot is by far the riskiest. Just thought I'd warn you. It's not a rom, it's not a radio [which is slightly more risky], its your bootloader. You have a proven eng hboot that will work with A510a,b.c,e and know the risks [yes you can brick your phone with the wrong adb commands if you don't know what you're doing, besides the install risk] ok be my guest. But most end-users don't need the extra adb commands; so, they gain risk with no reward. Just sayin...

Rob

PS ETA on gsm s-off is whenever you feel like borrowing a xtc clip; cdma well same method but hardware not needed.

this guide is to update your bootloader from 1.1 to 1.2 ...

i am not responsible for any issue you have ( please report them and i will try to find a fix) or bricked tablets

i assume you know how to and have used NV flash before ( if you haven't then go here http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/nvflash.htm )

you no longer have to be ]rooted

NOTE: even tho you are using NV flash to go back to stock, the stock ROM wont boot ( gets stuck in boot loop)

1. download the following: NV flash stock ( no CWM)1.1BL http://www.mediafire.com/file/48roksff1xji3y0/nvflash 1.1.zip NV flash stock (no CWM)1.2BL http://www.mediafire.com/file/0rgkcd0k4v30z4u/nvflash 1.2.zip NV flash 1.2BL (CWM) http://www.mediafire.com/file/brd9u48iefdqcc7/gtab.nvflash.1.2.branch.20110508 with cwmv3028.zip

2. boot into into APX mode ( power on and volume (-)) ( remeber the screen will be black)

3. take the downloads from earlier and put them on your desktop and un zip them

4. open NV flash1.1 ( no CWM) then double click nvflash_gtablet.bat and follow on screen instructions. then reboot ( when finish) ( if you get stuck in a boot loop thats ok, go to step 5.)

5. open NV flash1.2 ( no CWM) then double click nvflash_gtablet.bat and follow on screen instructions. then reboot ( when finish) ( if you get stuck in a boot loop thats ok, go on to step 6.)

6. open the folder that has NV flash 1.2 with CWM then double click nvflash_gtablet.bat and follow on screen instructions. then reboot ( when finish) ( again you most likely not be able to boot into the stock rom, go to step 7)

7. find a ROM thats uses bootloader1.2 and boot into CWM and install the ROM

known issues

the first time you boot into CWM it might not work( gives you an error)

fix: repeat step "6".

if you want to be on the safe side, do steps 4-6 twice ( do it then reboot, then do it again) ( it would be to just make sure all files where copied over and updated properly) (that should only be required on step 6, if there is an error)

Remember to hit the thank button
[G Tablet Android Development] Micah_Droid:
Do I follow the directions even if I already have CWM recovery installed?
[G Tablet Android Development] qkster:
I'm not sure the point of this...it may confuse some.

I also thought that to nvflash in APX, you don't even have to be rooted.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Rapol:
First of all newbie here. I rooted my phone 4 months ago with the ninja rom and today i wanted to flash the absolution rom. So i donwloaded the room in my sd card and rebooted my phone into the bootloader. It instantly freezes and I need to take out the battery to restart the phone. I remember something about a gold card is that needed again or that was just for rooting purposes?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Joshp406:
What do you mean by freezing?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Rapol:
I cant go up or down neither press the power button to select something.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
First off, gold card has nothing to do with anything after the initial root process. It is simply used to downgrade and obtain the exploit to root. After rooting is done, you can delete the goldcard, reformat your sdcard, get a new sdcard, do whatever you like.

Secondly, do you have a PD98IMG image on your sdcard card? can you still boot reboot and get into your ROM? If you can reboot, just reboot and then reboot into recovery via Rom manager. From there just full wipe and install the ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
You don't flash the rom from bootloader. You only flash from recovery. When you reboot into bootloader it takes a few min as it scans for a pd98 file
[HTC Inspire 4G] Rapol:
I left it 15 mins waiting in the bootloader to see if i could go into recovery, but nothing. But yeah,I forgot I can do the reboot to recovery while pressing the power button. Absolution is running on my phone :) thx
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Glad you got it working. It will be unresponsive for a min or so when you boot into bootloader before you can do anything. But since you have it figured out.

Like you I was strongly attracted to the 7.7 when I was in the market to buy. At that time, no word when/if we'd get it here. And imports were $600 and up. Bought the Gt 7+ and have not looked back since.

Gotta say yes, the larger screen (not by much ), AMOLED quality (very nice) and slightly faster processor makes a very attractive package.

But....

Our community here is growing (not light speed but still), we have root and CWM (thanks gary9d), more than a few recognized devs are following here and there are a selection of cases/sleeves with more on the way.

Who is to say the aftermarket accessories manufacturers will embrace SO MANY different "flavors" of GTab (7.0, 7.0+, 7.7, 8.9, 10.1 and perhaps an 11.0?) I'm doubtful myself.

Keep thinking...."a bird in hand is worth two in the bush"

Most likely I am staying with my GTab 7+. But YMMV :)
