I have flashed all versions of passion multiple times and other ICS roms and have used the batch mode in Titanium pro to restore all my user apps with data (not system data) and have never had a problem. A nandriod restore of /data can give you issues because of the constant changing of /data/data between versions. (ie. whether it's an actual folder or a symlink to /datadata)
[Vibrant Android Development] EdWood110:
Ok, I am confused now.

I am on CM7, I don't think I have GB Bootloaders cause it was not necessary.

The How to Do for ICS legal version says I just need to flash it, but you say I need to flash GB Bootloaders?

Can you explain pls or did I get it wrong? Don't wanna brick my phone.

Thx, Ed

Can you clarify what to do here? Is there a .nomedia file I need to download or do I create a blank .txt file named .nomedia? Thanks

It's pretty simple. Just download the .tar file, put your phone in download mode and select it as the PDA file with ODIN. You don't need GB bootloaders on v7. He is saying it looks like you will for v8.

i'm just going off of what he says in his G+ V8 and beyond will Require GB bootloaders. V7 is optional.

Thank you both for the quick response! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] jrafael:
My experience so far

Phone lags even after lag fix, for some reason kernel doesn't go into deep sleep easy instead clocks down to around 100Mhz most of the time, not bad but can be better.

GPS works very well.

Mute/unmute bug still present.

Regular camera its very slow, front face camera (rev 1) works out of the box without mods (low light banding still present)

Apps takes longer than normal to install ?

As far 911 goes I haven't tested myself so I can't give feedback on this.
[Vibrant Android Development] 9xnine:
No problem. If you have any other questions about the ODIN process feel free to PM me.
[Vibrant Android Development] EdWood110:
Ok next question,

how do I flash my Nandroid Backup of CW7 back?

Anything I have to take care about?
[Vibrant Android Development] 9xnine:
This Lag fix is very strange. It made my phone much faster.

As far as the battery drain my phone will go to deep sleep only after force stopping download manager. I need to re-stop download manager after each boot and sometimes after about 4 hours. If I freeze download manager the problem vanishes, of course then I can't download anything, including apps from the Market. Hopefully this can help someone smarter than me to track down the cause.

I would just go into CWM and restore it. It should work fine. If it fails, ODIN back to stock and then flash CM7 stable and then run restore from CWM.
[Vibrant Android Development] EdWood110:

[Vibrant Android Development] getnbzy:
Hello,

How do you check your phone to find out if you have froyo or GB bootloaders. Sounds like i better find out before i think about V8. I went from ODIN stock to CM7 to Passion ICS. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] dardani89:
if you need to press both volume buttons to get into recovery mode then you have froyo boot loader. if you need to press volume down + home key then you have gb boot loader. from the sequence you state above you're probably on froyo boot loader but I can't know for sure only you can cause i've stayed on gb boot loader and odined to stock fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] getnbzy:
Yeah it's both volume buttons + power to get to recov mode so i guess my next question is how i go about installing GB bootloaders in order to be able to flash V.8. ?
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
Go here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1117990

GB bootloaders are backward compatable with froyo and Eclair so once installed you don't have to go back.

With GB bootloaders

Vol Up + Power = Download mode (no more need to pull battery-usb etc.)

Vol Dn + Power = Recovery mode
[Vibrant Android Development] EdWood110:
Ok, first of all a great ROM so far, am really surprised how well it runs so far.

GPS got a lock after a few seconds, working like charm again. ICS looks really nice, but in the meantime I will go back to CM7...cause a few Apps that I use regularly aren't working. For example, nothing really important but... Netflix...I get sound but no video, dark screen.

Anyway, just wanted to give some feedback and am really impressed, you guys rock. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] boystuff:
netflix works fine. i use it daily, and before you ask no i didn't do anything special. actually was very lazy with my install of V7 no build prop edits etc.

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 PM ----------

theres only like 2 roms out there that include the GB bootloaders and there very explicit about that in there OP. otherwise Bootloaders are something you flash with Odin, so you can't missit since you have to manually install it. and for roms other then the TW 2.3.4/5 roms you really won't have much use for them. though i'm going to throw out that flashing a GB bootloader will fix the green tint the screen can get on occasion with passion V2-7 (ie. screenoff animation)
[Vibrant Android Development] EdWood110:
Ok thx for the hint with Netflix...BSPlayer also did not work, at least the hardware acceleration did not...anyway, will try V8 soon when it is out. :)

By the way, noticed that charging the battery on V7 took forever and my phone got quite hot.

Is there anything I can help with, like a diagnostic tool I can install and send you the logs or so? So it it easier for you to find some bugs?
[Vibrant Android Development] getnbzy:
Cool. Thanks for the knowledge. I am not exactly a noob at flashing ROM's just have never messed with the bootloader. Unfortunately the thread with all the bootloader links and info. has dead links attached to the GB ones. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1117990. Hopefully i can find a good link as i want to flash V.8 as soon as it drops. BTW i was born and rased in Wa. state. Woodinville, renton, and bothell areas. Have a good one.

EDIT: Got the GB loader. I did read the page but have a (stupid ?) question. I am now on ICS V.7. Can i flash the GB BL now and then flash V.8 or do i need to ODIN to stock, then flash the GB BL, and then flash V.8? Thanks and promise this will be the last help request....for a while lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
E911 (emergency 911) will not work as this is using our code from CyanogenMod for the RIL (radio interface layer). 911 calling may work, but E911 is different because it has to work even without a SIM. Captain Renard (renardk764) confirmed this for me yesterday and neo confirmed that he is using the same RIL code that we wrote for CyanogenMod. You may want to clarify the confusion - the big bold red 911 is ignoring E911 which was the whole reason we stopped supporting Vibrant in CyanogenMod until a fix can be found by Vibrant developers.
[Vibrant Android Development] Blars1206:
A lot of the green tint is caused by the screen settings to my understanding, much like when on a voodoo color enabled kernel, when you mess with the gamma setting and such, you get that green tint as the screen dims. I've noticed that messing with the screen settings included in the v7 lead to the green tint going away. Im on v8 now so I no longer have the settings I was using. Anyway, v8 is the shiznit!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
that should only affect the CDMA version of the phone right?

is the GSM version affected too?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
I wonder if it will just throw more battery power (at the expense of battery life- I would wager that it has been scaled back to preserve as much battery life as possible) at the radios and streamline the handshake protocols for handing off between radios and towers...

I wonder if anyone has tested this in any of the custom kernels floating around?

If so, it should boost GSM as well I would think...

VZW has had problems with their data system for the last 3 or 4 months. Your issues are probably related to to the problems all 4G phones are experiencing these days. You will see people in all the 4G forums complaining of losing data and low signals killing batteries. Saturday I was in a low signal area and kept losing 4G down to 1X and that also heated up my battery for the first time since I got the phone.

[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
i just have nothing to compare it to, because everywhere i go, i use wifi all the time lol....i haven't used just 3g in SO damn long, so i don't have a basis to compare with the rezound
[HTC Rezound] a-jive:
Idling on 3G doesn't seem to hurt me too bad (I usually let juice defender keep it off to mitigate the risk), but actually using it is way more draining than wifi. I can sit online all night at home on wifi, but only get about two hours of solid use when I'm out and about.

Going to a 4G city this weekend for the first time. Bringing backup batteries.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I think what may be happening is that once it drops to 3g or 1x it tries hard to get back to 4g and that is what hurts more than anything.

Try forcing it to 3g only and see if you have the same drop in battery under preferably the same conditions.
[HTC Rezound] jbh00jh:
Yes,that is what happened to me Saturday,it dropped to 1X and overheated trying to get back to 4G.

I did force it to 3G and it still stayed hot. But I had that happen once with my Thunderbolt, so I feel it is the vzw data signal not the phone. :D
[HTC Rezound] staticx57:
3G kills battery compared to wifi.

I have searched the forums and other sites but haven't found anyone else complaining about this bug. My GN (Verizon LTE version) occasionally does not render the soft buttons.

Anyone else experience this?

This is normal behaviour in an app that wants to display full screen video/picture. The buttons dim to points so as not to distract from what is happening on the screen.

ADB starting only from command line, and if you use Vista or Seven just right click on the folder where ADB is situated and type "ADB"

Lol this happends never, because i know how to modify framework-res.apk properly (lol), i build a flashable zip on my phone always to make sure it copied, and have a flashable zip with framework-res.

Well, the easiest solution is to reflash the ROM/framework-res.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
Jader13254 is right, you should always have a rescue strategy before messing around with something like framework-res.apk. It sounds like you don't have cwm recovery installed, which sounds particularly crazy. The bootlooping is going to make it difficult to use adb or android commander or anything similar with out recovery. If you have cwm you have some options to push the working framework onto the phone, but with out cwm, I think you can only use SUS/SEUS/PCC or flashtool to repair your phone. Just check for any of the guides for rooting, unbricking, updating ,etc your device.

[Motorola Atrix 2] seedoubleyou:
As someone who owns both, I would recommend you stick it out and wait for the magic of an unlocked bootloader and custom ROMs to unlock the full potential of this phone and its dual-core CPU.

Compared to my Inspire, the battery life, lighter weight, better call quality, better antenna, and what seems to be crisper screen make my move from one to the other worth it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
I came from an Inspire, don't trade for it.... I love HTC phones, but I had a ton of oddities, with it.

There are a ton of things that can be done with out an unlocked bootloader, even ROMs, this phone has only been out a little over 60 days, hang tight there will be a ton of great things for this phone.

If you must trade for a mid line phone think about a used sgs, or an Infuse. If you really want a TOP end then go for an unlocked galaxy nexus.

Otherwise hang tight, and use bloat freezer, for the bloat on this phone, it is not bad for a stock build. If you don't like Blur, go get ADW launcher or Go Launcher Pro, or something like that.
