As the title, can you tell me how to unroot my SGM? I'm in GB 2.3.4
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
first uninstall super user.apk then go to /system folder and remover "su" "busy box" "sqlite3"

and you will be unrooted
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] LeQuazz:
Use SuperOneClick. One click root and one click unroot, works with galaxy mini.
[General Questions and Answers] AndrewPR52:
I know its been asked plenty of times before, but everything I found either didn't work or I didn't understand... :(

So before I start, I'll apologize ahead of time for any annoyance or stupid questions, cause I'm gonna need some explanations.

I'm on an HTC Desire (U.S. Cellular) rooted and S-Off. Earlier today it was working fine. I went to restore a ROM backup through ROM Manager that I had and everything was going ok. ClockworkMod Recovery started to install the backup, but after a couple seconds it looked like it froze. I waited a while and I proceeded to do a battery pull (I've actually had to do this many other times when installing roms, and I never had problems). Right as I took the battery out I saw the Desire's screen, and it was just starting to continue the installation as I pulled the battery.

No problem, I thought. But when I went to reboot my phone, it took me directly into Fastboot. So I pulled the battery again, and the same thing happened. I cleared my storage with no luck. And after searching countless threads (like I said before), I either don't entirely understand what people are suggesting or their suggestions aren't working.

That's when I decided to join XDA to get a personalized answer. Can anyone help me with this in a (very) explained/easy to understand way?

I don't know if it will help, but here's what the HBOOT menu says at the top:

-Revolutionary-

BRAVOC DVT2 SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-6.06.1002

MICROP-051e

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-2.15.00.11.16

Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
You need to find a .zip of the current ROM you're running and install it from ClockWorkMod recovery (if you can access it and have it installed). Seeing as you can still access Fastboot, all hope is not lost just yet ;)

As much as everyone likes making backups, they really introduce a lot more problems and quirks than they're worth :) A clean flash each time, while more work, produces better, cleaner results. A lot of the issues people see relating to flashing and bugs have more to do with restoring their app/system backups than the actual ROM itself!

Failing that, you'll need a stock US Cellular RUU (ROM Update Utility) from HTC to return the unit - including recovery, bootloader and radio (you'll lose S-OFF too) - completely to stock. Extreme, but often when you find yourself stuck outside the OS it's better to go back and start from scratch ;)

If there's anything else you need let me know! :)

Good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] AndrewPR52:
As far as the first method, I just drop it into my SD card on my computer correct? Under computer is D: Recovery (I'm on Windows). Would I drop it in there or in the Recovery folder within it?

Also, when I'm in CWM Recovery and I select any of the options, the ROM Manager icon pops up (its normally just a watermark). This has been a common problem for me, I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong.

I'll work on the USCC RUU as well, at this point I really don't mind if I lose everything as long as I get it working again!

Thanks for the help!:)
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Yep, grab the .zip and put the SD card in a reader. Once it shows, just paste it onto the card (root directory, not in any folders). Then boot into CWM and 'flash zip from SD', 'choose zip file' and flash away.

I wouldn't stress about the icon popping up, as long as the recovery is doing what you're telling it to :)

My most recommended option is the RUU. It'll sort out all your quirks, it just takes a little while to get everything back the way you like it. The benefits are there, though ;)

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:17 PM ----------

This thread will help you a lot. There's USCC RUUs in there! :p
[General Questions and Answers] AndrewPR52:
Ok, I'm downloading the stock 2.2 RUU now (hopefully that's the right one?:o). As far as CWM Recovery, the icon pops up and that's all that's on the screen, until I press the power button again and it brings me back to the menu. None of the actions work at all.

Anyway, I'm hoping this RUU works. There aren't any other pre-requisites that I need for this, are there? I just download it, run it, and bam?
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Sounds like your recovery's corrupt or something, too.

Nah just stick the phone in fastboot, connect, install drivers (if necessary) and run the RUU. It should fix everything else for you ;)
[General Questions and Answers] AndrewPR52:
Yes!! Everything went well, I thought I was doomed! Haha thanks for your help :D

[Motorola Droid RAZR] BrettXNA:
I have my Razr Maxx updated to System 6.12.173 Android Version 2.3.6

and I dont want it updated further.

Is there a way to block/stop OTA updates?

Is there a way to block/stop the update notifications as well?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sim Kai Long:
It won't auto update. You have to press download and install everytime there is any OTA.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BrettXNA:
I'd like to block the notifications regarding the updates as well.

They are annoying to keep getting.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Barkleyfan:
If you have custom recovery, it won't update. I pulled update manually. Installation failed, and no more notification, even after reboot. You can go in there with Root Toolbox and freeze updater, but it's not necessary.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tomoooo:
You should have bought eastern european Razr :-))) We are still on 2.3.5.

No updates what so ever.

Just joking.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mcbride731:
i'm surprised this question didn't get a lot more responses, since I have a HTC Design and stumbled across this thread and I'm wondering the same thing. I'm not gonna take a new OTA update when ppl have reported loss of root...so does anyone wanna non-jokingly answer this yet? lol.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mcbride731:
PS: all i did was go to Titanium Backup and scroll all the way down to "Updater _____". Back that up, and delete it if you want (freeze it if you have PRO version). Especially if you're rooted and have a custom ROM on it, you won't need it.

[Motorola Photon 4G] bennyreyes715:
I've noticed in the Mopho's kernel development there aren't any governors to set. Any reason why? I've had OG Evo, NS4G, Evo 3D and all their kernel development had options. Im not complaining just curious. Id honestly love to learn how to dev, just not sure where to turn to for direction. I have the free time on my hands to do so.

Thanks for any heads up.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MikeCriggs:
What you're referring to is a CPU governor, you can find them on the market :P . As far as development goes, I started with basic C++ and Java guides and classes at my college (I'm majoring in computer programming). Also, become fluent with UNIX and Linux file systems as much as you can. There are some great starter guides on making ROMs, mods, and editing kernels on RootzWiki and YouTube. Google definitely helps too, a LOT! If you need any help, feel free to PM me or hit me up on Twitter (@MikeCriggs). Good luck, mate!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Androhacker:

[Nook Touch General] tehriddler:
I'm close to buying a Nook Simple Touch. These are my criteria and what I'm expecting:

I already have an iPhone. I want the Nook mostly for reading eBooks and viewing lecture slides in class.

I have owned a Palm Zire 71 before. How is the IR touch screen like? I'm not expecting the responsiveness of a capacitive touchscreen. Does it work by detecting pressure like a Palm? Does it have multi-touch? It's not really necessary as long as pan and zoom can function well. Can you annotate on it like on a Palm?

This is taken from what I posted in another forum:

What Android apps run on it after rooting? I'm thinking Chess and simple word-processing apps. Not expecting Angry Birds, but would something like amateur Angry Birds clones (so many of these on iOS e.g. Angry Pig Daddy) work because they have very low framerates?

Can I load files from Dropbox instead of over USB?

Hardware keyboards need to be connected by USB, right? I guess USB headsets won't work because the Nook lacks an audio chip.

Can it be compared to a Palm (albeit with a greyscale eInk screen)? For reading eBooks, browsing the internet in B&W and running simple [Android] apps and simple annotation.

Would the Nook Simple Touch meet my needs?
[Nook Touch General] Googie2149:
Technically multitouch is supported with the latest update, but I have yet to see it actually work.

The touch screen is pretty responsive, but a pen won't work; you need something bigger. There's also no film over the screen, and the actual IR beams are just above the screen, so if you want you don't have to touch the actual screen.

As for contrast, the color of the screen when blank is pretty close to white, with just a very slight shade of brown.

The Nook runs Android 2.1, so most apps won't be available, but I use my Nook to take notes in class (high school) using a free office app. Angry birds is available and is pretty playable if you change the orientation and turn off the background from the main menu.

The Dropbox app is in the Market, and I think there's an app that will sync folders on your SDCard (or maybe your Nook's file system) with Dropbox.

I also have a Palm Zire (31?), and I still use it to record homework and for its calendar; haven't found a decent working calendar app yet for my Nook. Maybe I'll just make one sometime.
[Nook Touch General] tehriddler:
How do you zoom and pan? By dragging on scroll bars?

I'm more and more impressed! :D

I'm amazed that Angry Birds is playable! I've seen the YouTube video. Why do you need to change the orientation? To decrease the resolution? How about instead making the app run in a 320 * 480 window like a low-end Android phone?

(Can't post links yet. Search "nook simple touch stylus". It's the Blogspot blog in the first result.) Nice! I'm leaning towards using a paintbrush! Maybe I'll trim the barrel of a fat pen and stick a silicone earplug in there like what he did in the first photo.

Do you type in class on the touchscreen keyboard or using an external keyboard?

I had a B&W Palm Zire 31 as well from when my mum used it for work. Not the same as yours.
[Nook Touch General] cceerrtt:
Did you try Calendar Pad? Working fine for me.
[Nook Touch General] tehriddler:
Has anyone's Nook ever broke? I'm buying it from someone who's bringing it in to Malaysia from the US. I have to ship it to B&N and B&N will deliver it to a US address, which will forward it to me in Malaysia.

Can you boost the contrast in Android so that similar colours won't have the same shade (look 'flat') when converted to Grayscale?

Does JavaIDEdroid work on a rooted Nook? The site says it seems to run okay on Android 2.1. I just want to use this to do light editing on assignments (I study CompSci). All my Java programs are only command-line based.

ETA: I might have found a good stylus! The rubber tip of Pilot FriXion pens (that are used to erase the ink by friction).
[Nook Touch General] Googie2149:
For zoom, I haven't had much luck with it, but the office app I use has a slider for zoom (Kingsoft Office. Terrible, but works). I use GO Keyboard to type, and after installing it to an Android emulator to get to the settings it works well.

I change the orientation so the screen refreshes more than once every two seconds, but it does make trails to be made behind the birds. When a bird jumps while waiting to be launched, it can only be described as a flaming bird.

The Zire 21 was B/W, the 31 is blue and has a color screen. (I have both for some reason) :P
[Nook Touch General] Terrel Shumway:
good for epub. screen is small for detailed slides.

The nook is great for reading ebooks (epub) -- that's what it was designed for. PDF support is very disappointing (IMO). zoom is extremely limited.

This assumes you are using the default app on a stock nook. I'm still working on getting mine to run other apps.

The small screen size might be disappointing for viewing lecture slides.

---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

yes.

The nook is pretty fragile. I recommend buying a good case.

The "designed for nook" case in the store looked to me like it would pop open too easily, so I got a Kindle case with a zipper (M-Edge Latitude). It's a tight fit, but it works.

Kindle 4 and Nook Simple Touch have the same H and W dimensions, but the Nook is thicker (11.9 mm vs 8.6 mm)
[Nook Touch General] tehriddler:
I just bought my Nook ST yesterday! I love it but I find the ghosting and the blinking refresh annoying and I hope the NoRefresh tweak would fix that.

How do you zoom in on images in the stock app? Can you pan/scroll instead of turning the page? IS there any way to rotate so that PDFs display in landscape mode?

Does highlighting work in PDFs? I can get the text to zoom in but am unable to select the text.

I'm holding off rooting until I get a microSD card. I also don't have a microSD card reader on me at the moment. Can you just write the disk image when the card is in the Nook? I see an external drive show up in Windows Explorer.
[Nook Touch General] Googie2149:
Don't write the image to the mSD when it is in the Nook! This will damage your Nook! /bold text

I don't think you can zoom in the stock reader, but when you root you can get a PDF app and use that, and you can force the screen to display in landscape when you need to. Also, you cannot pan in the stock reader, only pages.

As for NoRefresh, that app is advancing by leaps and bounds, and should work well for most apps.
[Nook Touch General] tehriddler:
Okay I hear you. :) I just read the warning in another thread after posting this about potentially bricking the Nook when writing the disk image to the microSD inside.

Is the screen refresh annoying in third-party PDF readers? Would be a shame to lose colour depth to just black and white by using NoRefresh.
[Nook Touch General] bobstro:
Thanks for that recommendation. Calendar Pad is a good replacement for the stock Android Calendar program. Not having a giant SD card image is nice.

Are you aware of a way to enable/disable specific account calendars that are displayed. I can do this on other devices with the stock app, but haven't found an equivalent function in Calendar Pad.
[Nook Touch General] markfrog:
i think NST is just right for you.

I also have iphone and ipad. but they just for game or chatting.

NST is for reading.:D
[Nook Touch General] cceerrtt:
Yes, use the stock Calendar application (with giant SDcard image) to select your calendars (menu -> More -> My Calendars). This setting has effect also for Calendar Pad.

Ok hi guys while trying to get AOKP to work i was messing around with the blob tools and i flashed an update .zip with this blob and it just boots straight in to recovery tried the recovery fix no luck im on B80 so unless nvflash for sbkv2 comes out tomorow im guessing im screwed well heres the blob youtube video coming. Heres My recovery log

[youtube]Tb7q2F0kWWM[/youtube] the first time i rebooted i held down the left rocker and it didn't even ask me if i wanted to wipe data or coldboot it just said wiping data booting to recovery

"wiping user data and indicators before cold booting Linux

Please wait a few minutes

Booting recovery kernel image"
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
Did you flash a custom recovery agent like CWM?

If not, you could try downloading the latest official ASUS firmware for your device. Unzip the file one time (it will still be a zip file) and put it on the top level of a microSD card and boot.

If you did flash a custom recovery, you will need to know how to get into the custom recovery agent. CWM hold VOL DOWN and POWER for 10-12 seconds and then press VOL UP within 5 seconds to enter recovery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sportsstar89:
Thanks for the reply but i have cwm installed and when holding down it just straight boot to cwm with going to the coldboot menu watch the video you'll see

I downloaded the firmware file and it didnt even read it just booted straight to recovery
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
If you still have cwm recovery, try flashing a stock ROM. That should get you unroot and stock recovery.

You can then root and install cwm again.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
Ohh yeah, the 5.5.0.4 mount points are different- you might have to mount them through adb or flash a rom that is packaged to use the partition names, not mount points.

I think your TF is fine- it's probably just missing a rom so it keeps booting into recovery. Try flashing this- it's just a kernel, but the updater script doesn't rely on the mount points. If it flashes, then your tf is fine other than the lack of firmware.

Odd indeed- I wonder if it has to do with how you wiped the /misc partition. I'm not sure if there is other info in there, but if there was, it's gone now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fonix232:
Problem is, somehow the 'boot into recovery' command got stuck - it won't even get to flash the blob.

You can do the following (fixed my tab when I had the same problem):

1. In recovery, connect to PC

2. ADB Shell into the tab

3. Clean the MISC partition (or whichever holds the boot commands) using dd:

dd if=/dev/block/zero of=(the partition, /dev/block/mmcblk0p[n] where N is the partition number of MISC) bs=1024

4. Flash any blob

5. Reboot for blob to get flashed.
