[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaycush:
So I posted this on the forum for my phone because of similarities in the recovery mode. I was hoping to get CWM for the tablet so we could do backups and restores and try some different things like trying to port the 740 back to the 702. If anyone is willing to try/help it would be much appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaycush:
Right now I'm flashing the 740 firmware over the 702. Wish me luck. If it works I'll post instructions if others want and it works.

EDIT: bricked, as far as I can tell. It says it was successful but can't get past the penguin. Screen goes fuzzy. Draining the battery will try and see if I can get something else to work to unbrick it.

There's no stock recovery?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaycush:
There is a recovery mode but it's touchy, it looks like a download mode. To get there power off and hold power and volume down, then once you get the triangle while still holding power and vol down press vol up.

My hope is that by draining the battery it will allow me to recharge then power on to recovery mode. Right now I hit reset and it starts trying to boot right away but of course it can't get past mister penguin.

Another little quirk is that you have to have usb plugged in and then power off to get into download mode.

So windows sees the tablet but doesn't recognize it, so that is progress, that means something still registers, going to try a couple different things to see if will get it figured out. Might try linux if I can find a good downloadable version.

If you're able to get to recovery mode does it have factory reset option?

Do you have the means to pull your framework or system apks, if not the whole firmware?

I would like to get my hands on them and see if I can access my tablet and maybe get to compare what i did to what an original firmware might look like. I could be that the firmware I installed is looking for a 1G storage that is non-existent and so it gets very confused. If I can see what is going then maybe I will get lucky. Right now lucky is all that I have going for me.

There is a download that will root and install google play. To ensure that you can continue to use the power button to shut down busy box needs to be moved from /system/xbin to system/bin. Read back a few posts to see the download and exact method to move busy box.

after using ur thing to put market on i now have 2 intenal storage meters under storage under settings amd it thinks there no memory at all but there is and nothing will download from the market i dont get a force close but it just says downloading indefinately any help would be greatly appreciated
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beezlebug:
I'm experiencing the same issue. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas it would be greatly appreciated as right now I can't install anything.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beezlebug:
Fixed It

I was able to resolve this issue. If anyone else ever runs into this... the issue I encountered was that after running the DoubleRoot.bat the tablet had two internal storages listed. The first internal storage had a total space of 0.00B however it showed apps/data/etc occupying approx 60Mb. I was unable to install any apps or save settings. For example if I changed the wallpaper and rebooted the tablet the wallpaper would be back to the default. If I loaded an APK file via USB and then installed it through the file manager it would disappear after a reboot.

After reading various forums I was able to find a useful post. It appears that BusyBox can cause this issue. After moving busybox, as recommended in the post, I was able to fix the storage issue. Thankfully the root / market installation worked and I'm now able to run Google Play and install any of those apps.

I hope this helps anyone else who runs into this. It was definitely frustrating.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaycush:
Do you know how to pull the firmware and create the update.img? I have two tablets that have bricked. I can get into recovery mode but nothing else. I keep getting E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid Argument), also I get E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command. and several others. I think that the /cache file has been damaged or deleted from the device. If anyone has a solutin I'd love to hear it.

BUMP - Does anyone still have the tablet and can get me a copy of the firmware. If it works on your tablet it should work on mine so please. I have not had any success trying to get it from the manufacturer.

Yeah,it's very fast.

But my search key cannot use,yours is well?

I just flashed virtuous affinity and i'm really liking it. I was running mikrunny before and that was pretty good as well.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] android-incredible:
Im using Magnolia 2.0 and is very stable no complain...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
RCMix was the first rom I tried out when I rooted my phone. I liked it and it seemed to be very fast, but I had quite a few problems with data, WiFi and mms. I tried out a few others and ended up settling on Incredible HD. It is very fast and stable. I haven't found any bugs with it yet. I would recommend trying HD out personally.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopesfall19:
Sorry for using this thread, but i noticed something..

my Galaxy S2 nandroid buckups have with CWM-5 7 files, with the tab and same CWM version i have only 6 (ES root file explorer shows also only 6 files -and hidden files are visible)

the ".android_secure.vfat" is missing in the Tab 10.1 backup.

how many should there be?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
Think it has something to do with the S2 having an SD card and the tablet not having any. Not sure. As tablet backup won't have external_sd as S2 will
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] RobbandJenica:
First off I'd like to start off by saying that I am kind of an idiot...with that said; I like to mess around with important files on my device(Acer a100) even though I have absolutely no clue what I'm doing.

Using titanium backup I uninstalled that download system apk. The one with the green icon and the white arrow pointing down. Now when I try to restore it through tit. Backup it will just freeze and keep saying that it is restoring and I have to finally force close titanium. I have also tried messing around with permissions in root explorer, fixing permissions in rom manager, navigating to system/app and installing it manually through a file explorer( get message install fail), and hard resetting.

The main problem is that everything I download will show in my notification bar and after I close/exit them they come back 5-30 min later. If I click on the download in my notification(not on the x) then my notification bar just closes. I can kinda fix this by turning my notifications off or cleaning data/cache on ?download storage? Apk/app.

Does anyone know of an easy fix for restoring this system apk. For there are no custom roms or recovery sources for this device that I have seen yet.

Thank-you, Robb

i tried downloading those recovery files and twice they came back saying they were corrupted, is there any way someone can just upload the system file i need from their a100...its the downloads apk. the green icon with a white arrow pointing down
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:
PM me with your email address, I'll email you the apk from my A100, I'm still running the stock rom that I pulled it out of the box with.

You can download it straight to your tab from your email, beforee you do, get a file manager (like es file manager) from the market. You will be able to get to your downloads folder from there and install it.

ummmmm............ could you repeat that?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Col.Kernel:
He's got Root Explorer, that should do the trick.

To the OP: You are mounting the system partition R/W in Root Explorer when you try this, aren't you? Hate to ask a dumb question but.....
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] RobbandJenica:
Yes I am hitting that button up top on root explorer changing it from r/w to r/o but I think some how I just got the wrong apk....after titanium wouldn't restore it I think I remember copying apk. From my phone (g2x) and attempting to restore those...dumb, I know I might of tried changing the names of the apk. Too,..like I say I f*** with s*** I have no business Fu****** with. I will p.m. my email now maybe I can get a screen shot of the system files if anyone feels up to it, so I can cross check proper name and sizes
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] painter_:
How about just reinstalling the 3.2.1 update that is in the developer section. There should be no reason to factory reset since it is the same version. I have soft bricked mine a few times and I have just did the update again.

I even upgraded from whatever version the device shipped with to 3.2.1 without wiping the data.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] RobbandJenica:
A100 development section??? I see three a100 recovery downloads and one a101 recovery in our development section but when I download them i t says they were corrupted...if those are what your talking about...which one exactly should I use and what do I do with the file after words???

----sorry two that say a101 and two a100

So should I use file Id # 115,116,117,or 109
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] painter_:
Use the one in this post. It is already decrypted. The ones in the frist post need to be decrypted using the Acer decryption tool. I have used the one I linked to probably 20 times. Once you run the update you will have to re-root the tablet.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] RobbandJenica:
thank-you all..recovered and fixed!!!

I was able to fix my problem by using the recovery update zips. But I want to thank everyone that helped, and remind people from experience to freeze unwanted system apps instead of uninstlling in titanium backup.u

Very important advice also is to search and read before starting new posts. I could have saved some time and headache just by doing that...the answers were just a couple paragraphs away the whole time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] benyben123:
Hi.

I a speed freak! If there is something I hate, is lag.

I therefore thought of using a better kernel for my G2x.

As I understand, some kernels can OC the cpu. Wow. That's cool, first of all.

Second - any conclusions about this? Is it safe? Does it really make a difference (i don't game on my G2x)?

THANKS!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beekersguy:
Since you obviously don't know how to use the search function, I'll just tell you that it is perfectly safe to install a kernel and constantly run it at 1.5 Gh.

Go buy setcpu from the market to set your processor speed at Max, and leave it there. All the time. No matter what.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kt0ce:
Haha, good answer..Or you can go and download CPU master for free. =)... But honestly overclocking is not good
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZeroT| Demented:
There's no real speed difference when overclocking install a custom kernel but don't overclocking it its a waste of battery
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Light-라이트:
risks? yes. it kills your battery faster, and battery life will drop. by battery life, i mean the amount of recharge/discharge cycles it normally will allow will drop.

pros? makes your phone much faster. and no its not a placebo. if you bump up your kernel from 1ghz to 1.5ghz, thats obviously a speed increase. how can it not be faster.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
But also the risk at a constant 1.5 of overheating and burn out of the processor.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] le66450146:
if you're a noob and don't know exactly what OC is, don't do that.

it can kill your battery and processor much faster, make you're phone unstable and accidentally overheat and burn out your processor, if you have a constant OC

processor life is worth the wait imo
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
I oc mine tops 1.2 and its as fast as it needs to be for my needs. I also bump up the minimal speed to about 500-800 cuz our g2x's should never be running that slow even when idle/screen off imo.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zoppp:
Just saying setcpu is free on XDA

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mattfox27:
Im coming from an X2 and i have to say the white color looks horrible its almost got a brown tint. Is this because of amoled? On my X2 when you turn the screen on the colors look white, crisp and clear on razr they look horrible.

I know about auto brightness and all that but this is weird is this normal for amoled?

Is there anyway to set thresholds on auto-brightness? Why does the white look so bad when dimmed?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] garywojdan81:
I would compare it to another razr, maybe at a vzw store. I came from an x2 as well & I don't notice any strange tint even though the whites are more muted on the amoled screen.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanmcd72:
When I look at images or videos, whites look fine to me. They look muted/tinted looking at email and webpages though, but after a few days it looks normal.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mattfox27:
Ya its mostly in general UI areas for instance i use handcent sms and when the popup window comes up the white text area for the reply just looks really bad, really dark and funky...ya im gonna take it to VZW for comparison...it just seems so weird coming from X2, it almost seems like the X2 screen looked brighter/sharper/better im only on day 2 with razr but the screen thing is just kinda weird.

Are all amoled screens like this? Is it to conserve power?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ZolaSlo:
Compare it to some other Razr, I really like colors on mine. On LCD screens they do seem to look more natural, but I like how they pop out on this amoled. Easier to read in outside light conditions, plus it's an eye candy every time I turn on the screen. I could stare at it, doing nothing, for hours :).

br Zola
[Motorola Droid RAZR] onslaught86:
It's not so much normal for AMOLED as it is normal for the RAZR's Pentile layout. I liken it to looking at a 3D image without glasses.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mattfox27:
Ya i just went to store to compare and its the same at the store, whats weird is the NEW white model Razr the screen seemed a bit brighter and whites looked cleaner. All were set to auto bright in same lights...Also compared to Galaxy Nexus and i found the GN screen worst than razr in washout effect. Also UI a bit choppy im thinking of switching but now not sure GN seemed cheap the battery cover just snaps on and off with these little clips you have rip off like a door panel...weird
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mistawolfe:
Matt,

You might remember me from the x2. I'm on the razr now too. It's not you or your phone. I know exactly what you're talking about. Market is a prime example.

I guess I'll take it to get true blacks. It is the AMOLED.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mattfox27:
Ya Mista i remember you...

Ya im not crazy,

too me it looks terrible i showed my girlfreind this new "amazing phone" and the first thing she said is why does the screen suck. Everyone is saying the colors pop ect...i think this screen sucks and so does the GN i might bail for the HTC rezound at least it has some good development going on and a faster processor im not sure im just not liking this screen. Very Disappointing in a "Flagship Phone"

What are the chances that this can be fixed with software updates? I think 1% chance maybe, i just wish VZW would carry a better stock of phones why not the SGS2 why does VZW have to be so weird about what phones they carry.

Ya the market looks horrible...dog$hit
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mistawolfe:
I don't think a software update can fix how AMOLED's produce colors. I know what you're talking about. Give it a few days and see if you adjust to it. Definitely a huge difference from the bionic/x2. I'm getting used to it.

Another thing -- load a black web page and look for the blotches. Found that last night.

Hey im picking up a Galaxy Nexus tomorrow from craigslist condition said was new. im paying 600 for it. is there anything i should look for while testing out the phone? please let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Do all of your normal stuff for buying a phone

Check the screen closely, both on (high/low brightness) and off.

Pull the battery and check everything (broken door pins, battery area, etc.).

Hook it up to a computer and make sure the USB port is working (data/charge).

Plug in headphones to check the 3.5mm jack.

Play music to check the speaker.

If its GSM, put your SIM in it and make sure it works.

If its CDMA, call the carrier and make sure its a clean ESN.

etc., etc., etc....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
But he probably doesn't have an LTE SIM on him unless he has an LTE phone currently. And it still has an ESN, no? Its a CDMA device.
