Hello

i did a very stupid mistake, playing around with my phone files without making a backup copy of CWM folder on my PC, lost all files on SD

i would appreciate if somepone can post a STOCK ROGERS CWM backup.

MOD, sorry if i'm posting in the wrong place, i think this is development related so i'm posting it here.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] finsilva:
The files are in the super guide. There are several tools in there to help you get back CWM recovery.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoobSEowner:
how to stop them running?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
Just don't.

If an app includes a battery-draining service, uninstall the app and look for alternatives.

Android operates like this: no matter what you do to kill a service,

if it's coded in the app to constantly run, it will be restarted every time.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvyParts:
what app are you having issues with???

Pvy.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoobSEowner:
Map, some games, music, updater.. i killed them many times but still they're running.. Those ****ty things make my RAM left 50 =.=
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soldiers33:
root phone and remove the stock apps. Music will always run until you first end the service.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluefisch200:
And now? What will you do with free RAM? Exactly, nothing...Android will free RAM if it needs more...don't worry, it's an intelligent OS...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squalldua:
wanna free more ram, just turn off the phone and turn it back on again ;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoobSEowner:
but, last day my phone RAM stable between 100-130, now 40-50 T.T
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taaviu:
Downloaded maybe some big apparently and that's why ram is lower now...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
RAM is not affected by downloads, it has nothing to do with internal storage.

RAM decreases over time.

If you face lags, just reboot.

If not, don't bother. ;)

Hi guys! So i have root successful my phone.

But when I want to go to Recovery, there will come be a android icon, and after that my screen is black?

I can only into the recovery menu with CMD on my pc...

Somebody know?
[Nexus S General] sean1984:
if your on stock ota it rewrites stock recovery every time you reboot device

flash this it will delete files that rewrite recovery http://db.tt/ooDaCnU

only flash if your on stock firmware
[Nexus S General] KrishhBhola:
Yes I'm on Stock OTA...

So the only way, to come into the cwm is to every time to typ in cmd "fastboot flash recovery" ?
[Nexus S General] kerry_xu_cs:
Yes. If you want to keep the CWM, you should delete /system/recovery-from-boot.p and /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

[Nexus S General] mELIANTE:
When I wanna go to recovery I just use Rom manager-flash CWM-reboot recovery :)
[Nexus S General] sean1984:
go into cwm and go to back up and restore and select backup so u can have your current setup to go back to just incasse some custom roms you flash are not to your liking and also copy the backup from your sd card to your computer just in case something happens

My wife and I each have an identical desire s.

Both are on Vodafone.

Mine updated to 2.3.5 no problems.

My wifes however downloads and always says download corrupted, do you want to download it again? I have tried over and over again.

I have tried with WiFi on and WiFi off.

I have tried swapping sim cards and memory cards.

Still no joy.

Can anyone help please.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Norikio:
Just add the two lines below to your .repo/manifestl.xml and it should compile without errors.

And I think it's better to use brunch cyanogen_p500-eng.

<project path="device/lge/p500" name="CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_p500" />
<project path="vendor/lge" name="koush/proprietary_vendor_lge" />

PS: You can savely remove all devices from manifest.xml you don't need, so syncing is a bit faster.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hseokman:
Thank you.

Now the rom is compiled successfully.

I hoped that it would create the same rom as the nightly build, but all of system/app apk files and all of system/framework jar files and some other files are different.

I don't know if there is compiler difference. I used ubuntu 11.10 64 bit.

Now I'm afraid to load my compiled rom.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hseokman:
It seems most of different files are coming from different Java version.

Nightly is built with 1.6.0_20, and I built mine with 1.6.0_26.

However there are still different files, and I do not know how they are different.

These are list of files.

[Motorola Droid X2] TheHunterOfShadows:
On games like Jet Stunt, if I hold an on screen button down too long it stops working until I quit out of the game.

For me happens on 2.3.4 stock, 2.3.5 stock, and esclipse 2.3.5 and now again on cm7.

Example, on jet there is a gas button. You have to hold it down to go. (Duh :) ). After a while the button stops reacting to presses. Any thoughts on this?

Ill try with charger on later. But I just played, and it happened. Then I turned off the screen, turn it back on, unlocked the phone and the game was still loaded. So I hit resume and played and the issue happened again after 30secs.

Okie guys...here i come to final thing that i wud love to do on my ace. Probably i ll rest fir few months after that.

I flashed back dxkt5 2.3.6 today.

Installed cf-root b84

Lagfree v2

Converted filesystems to ext4

I am using link2sd app for now with ext4 partition on my sd card.

I heard thar dt a2sd is better than link2sd as it allows to move data as well to sd card. Hence, am planning to enable it as it comes with cf root.

Can anybody plz guide me how to do it with minimal efforts.

By minimal efforts i mean..without having to re install my apps.

If thats unavoidable i m ok with it. But please guide me how to proceed with it.

I am a neebie and hv been trying to understand the things one by one..and i feel this is the last thing which remain untouched by me.

Plz plz help me guys...i promise i wont trouble u after that..if somebody says try google...i hv already done that...but i couldn't make sense out of it...may be because i am a girl. ;-)

Please help.

Thanks.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sergeantgeneral:

1.Download latest darktremor's a2sd from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=926015 and put on sd card.

2.Go to recovery.Mount system,data and sd-ext and flash darktremor's a2sd .

[LG Optimus 2x] BasB:
I've bought a LG P990 today, the seller told me he had put the cyanogenmod on it but it wasn't very stable, en he couldn't get the stock back on it, so he sold it to me for a fair price.

I thought i 'll put it back to stock en i'll have a great phone!!

so i tried to flash it, but the phone wont even start, when i push the volume up and down buttons the computer recogniced it, but i can't get the apx driver installed (not on win 7 + win XP) now i'm stuck........

can some one give me a hand with this? is there a way to fix this or am i screwed sorry for the bad english. please help!
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
search for nvflash, if nothing else works this will.
[LG Optimus 2x] BasB:
i've already doen that, but then I'll need to install the APX driver, and that is the part where i am getting stuck. any suggestions?
[LG Optimus 2x] BasB:

thats the driver on the pc? if so, what exactly is the problem?

I put the volume buttons down en connect the usb cable - the message 'usb device isn't recognize' - then i go to devicemanager - there is a "!" bij unkown USB device - left mouse click and point to where i stored the driver - but then i get the message" best driver already installed.

this is where i'am now - is there another way to recover the phone maybe with program on sd card or something?

the phone itself doesn't do a thing - screen black - no flashing lights, no nothing

am i doing something wrong? or is it really bricked?
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
i think you need a different driver for your device... here you can find the driver that i use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=953182

I also talked to the guy i've got the fone from; he said that he accedently must have whipped te phone memory, is this irreversible?
[LG Optimus 2x] BasB:
and i've tried on a other desktop computer with win xp proffesional! (usb on the back) can it be that there is no apx driver on the phone? is there another way to connect and flash?

yes that makes a difference, the one from LG does not work

I think your phone is bricked. I had almost the same problem with motorola milestone. I bought phone with software failure. Seller was saying that he tried to update phone and it hanged so he sells it. I thought i will flash it and have a great phone. But I tried all of flashing, recovering methods and nothing... I took phone to phone service and they said that phone's motherboard is broken... So I sold it for parts and now I have LG optimus 2x. thats my story :) It hink you should talk with seller for more details. Also you can try to contact lg customer service. Maybe they can help you

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Helltoupee:
If you hate the shut down and long shut down process on the NT I discovered something that might help. I had an app for a long time I use with AOSP roms like CM7 called Hot Reboot by Beansoft. It has four options and widgets. The options are Fast Reboot, Normal Reboot, Reboot Recovery and Reboot Bootloader. The fast reboot and normal reboot work on rooted NT. I haven't had the guts to try the other two out without a Nandroid I don't want stuck in a boot loop or worse.

Fast reboot is like the normal shut down without holding the power button and clicking shut down. The normal reboot actually does a complete shut down then automatically starts back up.

Great time saver and much easier on you and the hardware buttons. Enjoy.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ChillFactorz:
I've used the rebooter option inside the Rom Toolbox app, which I also use as my root browser. I even tried the boot into recovery mode and it just puts up a screen that says "recovery could not be found please reboot" or something of that nature. it is nice to have an app to quickly reboot.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] promek:
you can also use quickboot from market. i have it on all my tablets and it works very well.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] xPhoenix777:
They are all good tools. I prefer quickboot on my devices that I don't need the Rom Toolbox on. But the ROM Toolbox is a nice app to have.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] landonotis:
Thanks

Thanks for the input guys. I'll be giving it a try as soon as my NT is up and functional again.

I recently installed system tuner pro, and it appears that my second code is not automatically running.

Is this true?

Do we need to activate the second core in order for it to work?

Sorry if this is a stupid question...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mike7169:
Thats weird. I just downloaded the free version on the market and Im gettin the same thing. Its not recognizing the 2nd core at all. I went to phone info in system tuner's settings and its not showing either. It must be some glitch in the latest version of the app because I used to have that app about 1-2 months ago and it showed 2 running cores. But when I go to CPU Master Pro and my phones main settings about phone info it shows 2 cores. After I rebooted, of course. Before I rebooted though in CPU Master Pro it only showed 1 core, so for sure the apps messed up.

This should help http://www.tested.com/news/dual-core-vs-single-core-arm-what-does-an-extra-core-really-get-you/2337/

What ROM you running? Did you reboot your phone? Did you reinstall the app after you rebooted your phone? And why do you use/need System Tuner? Personally I didnt like the UI and I didnt really see the need for it. Not at all hating, just my 2 cents.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] idtheftvictim:
Actually...I had used system tuner on my wife's sensation when ics first leaked, the forums for her phone advised to use it to force the 2nd core online. So, early today I was bored and just thought I would install it on my g2x just to see if my second core was running, and it said it wasn't.

I am on cm7 latest Lang from baldguy or whatever.....when I enables the second core, I didn't notice any difference, so I uninstalled the app. Then posted here...lol

Thanks for the info
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mike7169:
Ya until ICS or CM9 with the hardware acceleration, which actually utilizes both cores like it should, only when playing 3D games the dual cores makes a difference. And that's mostly using the GPU anyway.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vringo:
Very strange issue.

I cannot upgrade my ROM above 2.3.3 and I can't upgrade the Recovery Image to anything new as well.

Does not matter if Official ROM or Not.

I am grabbing the Official ROMs from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1445570

I am currently with Android 2.3.3/GRI40/XXKB1 Radio/KA3 Bootloader

and If I try to install, 2.3.4, 2.3.6, or 4.03 the phone wont get past the "Google Logo" right from the beginning of boot. The screen will go Blank and the 4 soft keys will light up.

Before installing each ROM I am formatting/wiping cache, data, system & dalvik.

And Each ROM installation will claim that it installed successfully.

Recovery: So I am able to install ClockWork Recovery 3.0.2.4 and have it work.

I install the latest Clockwork ver. 5.0.2.0 it will install successfully, but not work.

And stop right after the Google Logo, as with ROM.

I have been at this for 2 days now. Any help would be AMAZING!!!

One last note: The phone was dropped, so maybe some how related, but I don't see how. The phone just came back from store that replaced the LCD. They claimed it was in a Recovery Loop. So I asked them to put CynogenMod. However they strangely put CynogenMod v 2.3.1 and not rooted.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
are you flashing the right cwm recovery 5.x.x.x for your phone(amoled vs lcd)? try twrp recovery. do you wipe data(factory reset)before flashing? you should.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vringo:
to Start, Thank you for the reply. Its very much appreciated.

So Yes, I am performing a full factory reset before flashing. And all of my most recent trials I used the native factory recovery that comes with each of the ROM's.

And I tried all of the below listed ROMs with the issue as described abouve.

Android 2.3.4/GRJ22/XXKD1 Radio/KA3 Bootloader

Official, signed, can flash with ClockworkMod or stock recovery. Contains recovery, radio and bootloader.

Android 2.3.6/GRK39F/XXKF1 Radio/KA3 Bootloader

Official, signed, can flash with ClockworkMod or stock recovery. Contains recovery, radio and bootloader.

Android 4.0.3/IML74K/XXKI1 Radio/KL1 Bootloader

Official, signed, can flash with ClockworkMod or stock recovery. Contains recovery, radio and bootloader.

And regards to the Custom Recovery(cwm) issue, I used what on the CynogenMod Wiki:

wiki(dot)cyanogenmod(dot)com/wiki/Nexus_S:_Full_Update_Guide

They don't have any differenciation between the OMOLED or Super LCD Versions:

(OMOLED I9020T, I9020A)

(Super LCD I9023)

Is there in fact different Recovery's for each of the abouve listed models????

Where would I find those recoverys?

And thank you again for your time.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vringo:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 PM ----------

if you want to flash the official 4.0.3, then you need to flash the official 2.3.6 first. if youre flashing a custom 4.0.3, like cm9, then you dont need 2.3.6.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vringo:
Thank you for the TWRP recovery suggestion.

But still stuck without being able to flash anything above 2.3.3

Should I be able to flash official 2.3.6 on top of 2.3.3(after factory reset)?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you should be able to. try a custom rom instead of an official. lots of aosp builds in the development section. they are pretty much pure android with a few mods. theres a pure aosp build in the development section too, its pure android 4.0.3 without mods. your bootloader is unlocked, right?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vringo:
Yes, bootloader is unlocked.

will give some of the aosp builds a try now
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
