[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] mtcdesc-android:
Backup with nandroid equals the image obtained with Norton Ghost / Acronis True Image

Good afternoon,

I've been reading this and other topics on nandroid and I think this is the solution I seek. A friend asked me for help with a project that will donate some tablets (lower-cost devices, probably models the brand GT S 7205 Genesis) for a school of education. He asked my help in order to create a drive "master" which will be configured with a user account that will serve Gmail for sending educational material and a second e-mail account (Hotmail) which students should visit regularly using the default browser to receive Android news and correspond with students from another school that participates in the project.

Since it is not appropriate to provide for children the usernames and passwords of emails, we then create this unity "master" and replicate their content in other units.

My question is whether this backed up with nandroid will copy the user account settings Gmail also logs sessions started with the browser (after all we know that after accessing a site using the standard Android browser, no need to re-enter login / password, unless you log out or erase).

Thanks a lot if I can clarify this question.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] boelze:
Nandroid makes an image of your existing system. Everything will be the same as when you made the backup, inkluding gmail accounts, passwords etc.

I think you can use that method the way you mentioned.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] mtcdesc-android:
Thanks

boelze, thank you for assisting me to clarify this question.

[General Questions and Answers] arueder:
us cellular version

To my knowledge the us cellular Galaxy S2 can't be rooted and no software is available for it. Assuming that is true, you now own a nice shiny paperweight. Drop it in the toilet and pay the $100 for an insurance claim.

Hi all

I am having an unlocked Galaxy S, currently on Eclair. I wanted to upgrade it to ICS with Dark Knight Rom. I rooted it and then installed ROM Manager. But now this ROM manager is not working . I am unable to go into Recovery mode.Also, 3 button method doesn't work on my phone.I am unable to use adb as I am not that much techie :( .. I tried other methods like Emulator, tried to root my set again but no use. Can someone please help to upgrade my phone.

At first you need a gingerbread rom with cwm. So you need the download mode to flash with odin. If you have a running GB rom, then you flash another rom.

How can I add this switch in dropdown menu?

[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
That is a feature of AOKP which you will find in the Virtuous Quattro and IceColdSandwich ROM as part of the ROM control. It would be helpful to know what ROM you're running.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghaznavi:
The system info widget displays one processor info on my phone, the other slot is shown as '0'. Does out mean that my Tmobile Samsung s2 has one processor only. What about having the dual core.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] red12355:
No. The Tmobile SGS2 has a dual core. It probably just a bug with the widget.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Joy2DaWurld:
LOLOLOL hilarious.

I promise it's just a bug. If it was any kind of a hardware error, your phone wouldn't run at all. Even if you manually turn one core off, the other core still depends on it to work properly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yoft1:
Depending on the ROM/kernel/CPU app you're using, they will turn off the second core when not needed to save battery and only kick it on when you need the extra punch. That might be what's happening here. Either that or a screwy widget.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1ForFun:
In programming and all that jazz, you start with 0 instead of 1.

Hence CPU: 0 and CPU: 1

And yes, one of the cores is off most of the time to save battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] novanosis85:
Correct.

This, beat me to it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghaznavi:
I can gather from what you dears say: that one of the processors is off working.

The other argument that computer lingo starts with 0 and 1 is not valid in my case as the sequence shown by the app is: 1 and 0, nit the other way around.

It, therefore, raises another question which is: whether a Tmobile galaxy s2 can operate if one of the processors is removed completely? And, wether it is technically possible to remove one of the processors?

What would you say to that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Mitallust:
It doesn't have two processors, it has a dual core processor. It is "possible" for a core to be non-functioning, but I really doubt that is the case, as processors undergo extensive testing before being released for use.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1ForFun:
No argument here...you asked why you had one cpu and the othet was "0". So you were given the answer. I dont know what makes you think that you could some how remove just one core...it doesnt work like that. It is one wafer with two cpu cores. You remove one, then the other one is also removed so youd have a non working phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rod3:
I would say you are an idiot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghaznavi:
Thank you for taking your time answering my question. I asked because I got a dialer installed through a mobile shop and after that my battery was almost busy: didn't run for more than 8 hours idling and some calls. I smelled foul play because here in the UAE almost every mobile technician is a thief. 2 years back somebody stole a ram chip from my notebook. And now when I checked my phone info.I grew doubtful. That's the reason I was curious.

Thanks again.

Ghaznavi
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bzlik88:
Wait....a what?? A dialer?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1ForFun:
My thoughts exactly
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghaznavi:
Yes, it's a voip app,.named 'vox' dialer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PrinceFX:
Relax, unless you bought a chinese clone of T-MO SG2, then its probably an issue with the app. If you're phone's battery life decreases after installing an app, then its an issue with the app, NOT the hardware! Uninstall the app. :rolleyes:

Also, it takes a LOT to tinker with the hardware and then make it work and I KNOW that no technician in the UAE is capeable of something like that. I know that because I lived in the UAE for 17 years :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghaznavi:
Thanks and highest regards for your learned opinion.

I am grateful.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Yeah sounds like it is staying constantly connected via your data connection. Check it's connection settings or you could use something like Juice Defender and set the per app policy and/or also manage when and why your phone uses your data connection.

Voip use your data connection to make calls and not your cellular connection so it uses battery now as cellular service never quits you are still using the data connection to host the bandwidth of those calls when in call and a lesser connection when idle to poll for incoming calls as well (juice defender offers tablet mode to kill cellular connection and slow only wifi if you have no need to make calls via normal doodler or you don't mind toggling it to save battery). Also, depends on the developer and how they code their app as to exactly how all that is controlled, so different apps may cause different amounts of data usage to accomplish the same thing. You may find another app you like that allows you to manually enter another compatible services account.

Google voice is different it initiates a call to a call center phone line they item or operate as local to you as possible then dials your intended contact via that proxy call automatically for you and spoofs your accounts caller-id so it appears as your virtual Google voice number and not the proxy call center number it used to initiate the call. Thus all Google voice calls carry on the cellular side and don't require data.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] luvsig:
I got my prime last week and I keep my prime docked all the time except when I play games. This is because I dont have a proper casing for my prime and docking it would be the best way to protect the screen.

My question here is, will docking it 24/7 disrupt the battery life of the tablet?

Since it charges the tablet at random intervals, is it bad to constantly charge the tablet from the dock?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] js931:
It doesnt charge randomly, it starts charging at around 70% until 90%, which is actually a good range to charge Lithium-Ion batteries! So you should be fine, relax :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RonH54:
I am in same situation as you. I have ordered the Dual Case made by Minisuit from Amazon but I won't get it until later in March. I keep my Prime Docked 99% of the time and turn it Off and Keep on Charger when not in use.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mintyboi:
true story

my prime is always docked, only when I'm playing games or occasionally while surfing on the sofa will I take it off the dock
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Chrono_Tata:
The one annoying thing about keeping it docked is I haven't yet got any good data on what the battery life of the docked Prime is. The data shown in the settings only show the time that it is undocked or when the dock has run out of battery.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erikk:
FYI there have been a few reported cases of screens being cracked while docked without any drops or accidents. Some people seem to believe that the dock can put pressure on the screen because of how it closes. So keeping it in the dock might not actually be the best way to protect your screen. I never had the dock so I can't speak to the issue but check out:
