Could be, I may have missed one.

Unless you're talking about /boot? I left it with two wipes since it's so quick.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
That's probably it

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Good job. As far as this versus g2x scrubber, this does do a more complete wipe. For 99% of the time g2x scrubber is sufficient, and is much faster. If you are having memory corruption issues or need a secure erase such as if the cops might subpeona your device then this is probably better.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Thanks for the praise. A big portion of what led me to this was people with corrupt installs. Part way though, I had been using the exact same format commands as your scrubber, I discovered that your script actually errored out on /cache, mine did as well since I was using your commands. Overground brought us a more direct way to format to ext3 (and now that I understand the commands more) Pharoah decided on his own to test with an unmount command and all went well.

And with all due respect, and I am not speaking out of my you-know-where when I say that, I believe, especially based on testimony (which I never expected it to make such a difference), that it is more than 1% of the time this should be used. The dual wipe is perfect for the first-time Nullifier or the haven't-double-nullified-in-a-while person, and the single is good for some one who has nullified recently or so perhaps upgrading to a newer version of the same ROM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rosevilletoyota:
Thanks

I am using you tool for now on anytime I flash a Rom and the double one can't ever hurt right?? I am always experimenting on my Computer and now my phone. It can never hurt to do the cleanest install possible. for an extra 15 Minutes ??? Now one could be that strapped for time. If you where you would not be flashing roms all the time or reading pages on this sight. It is clean the old way of wiping didnt do anything. thanks:D:D:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Well, the old way at least did *something*. I know alot more about scripting than I did when i went into this, so I may be able to easily convert a command line to a CWM script to check if our internal partitions are truly zeroed, and add an automation for the second wipe if the partition isn't zeroed on the fist wipe.

Well, I guess I just decided what my next step would be, lol.

Remember, I am more than happy to accept donations. I work on this in my spare and not so spare time (like at work) so I can give everyone a great tool.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] timothy7732:
If it was not for this tool my phone would have been bricked yesterday. But thanks to you the nullifier cleaned it all up.you could have cooked eggs on my phone lol. I will hook you up when I get paid that is for sure. You do alot of hard work for free and I thank you for your efforts.

Yes, I know it all gets wiped, but dalvik-cache is actually in /data. ;)

I've never gone looking for the Dalvik, but if CWM is looking for it in /cache I would think it's safe to say that it's in /cache. But either way, Dalvik would still get removed.

Dalvik Cache wiped.

It first tried to mount 0p7, which is for /data but it also looks to /cache for it was well. Maybe it's just that, different phones have it in different locations. But since CWM is device specific why would it look in two different places?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
Probably figured it won't hurt anything by leaving it in. Has to be a pain coding for every device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Even though the log says that file/directory doesn't exist? So how does it get wiped?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Just used this for the first time, stayed in CWM and tried to mount USB which wasn't responding on my PC. I removed battery to reboot the phone, since sometimes the buttons in CWM stop working.

Well, now I can't log into CWM, basically im stuck at the first LG screen. The one that is all white, NOT the second LG screen.

Not sure what to do.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
So, let me get this right, you Nullified but had no ROM on your SD card and tried to mount USB storage, to transfer the file, which is known to tend to corrupt files. And since your CWM is bugged anyhow you decided to do something which, in bold letters in the OP, you are told not to do? The only other person who did this used the ROM for recovery method, which is referenced in the OP. I think you can simply re-flash CWM and you'll be fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
I used the nullifier, I HAD CM7 RC1.zip on my phone, which i had on there for a while. Anyway i went to flash that ROM, got the "installation aborted" prompt, maybe bad file.

So i said fine, I was playing around with CWM seeing if I could try to flash again, but still the same error, after a while the "back button is disabled" prompt came up. After that happens, you have to do a battery pull to get the phone off.

Booted accidentally without holding Vol Down and was stuck at LG screen, cuz no ROM. Then battery pull, and keep getting stuck at LG screen regardless of holding Vol Down and Power.

Maybe I'll have to do the Nvidia flash thing.

Since I can get to the first LG screen, hope is not lost, right?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
As long as the phone turns on at all then all is well

[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Just ran Nvflash and i still cant get into CWM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Then read the OP followed by the linked post followed by reading the post linked there which contains the fix.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Doing that now, does this basically revert back to stock? I read the instructions and am downloading the files, but there is no explination as to what happens after it is done.

NVM, ill figure it out, looks like it just boots up stock.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Yea, I will have to take a closer look at it. I guess the system doesn't like that empty partition.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kairi_zeroblade:
for those who bricked their phones what i did was flash a kernel from the G2X thread(i used faux) via NVFLASH..push it to partition 11 it will finish the flash but there will be sync errors in the end..just disregard it..after that you just flash CWM from here via NVFlash and now you can partially boot to CWM..thats what i did last night..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Thanks for this. I have a few things on my plate, like trying to read a script with commands I am not familiar with.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kairi_zeroblade:
i see..no prob..BTW guys it took me just a few minutes to unbrick mine with the method i used..as the one posted on OP does not work for me..its just a bit of understanding where the heck i went wrong.. :p

and as far as i observed since boot was erased i need a boot image so i can get up to CWM..so what i did was NVFLASH a boot image to it.. :D

either way if you have a Nandroid backup you can flash the boot image from there back to your phone..so that you can boot up to just CWM..

[Motorola Atrix 2] l0wgray:
Looking for an original copy of /system/app/PortalApp.apk for version 2.3.6

I enabled dock-less webtop via HDMI using this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1357600

The mod works fine but I'm trying to revert back to stock behavior, and realized I mistakenly destroyed my original /system/app/PortalApp.apk file with a fat finger while backing it up.

I'm finding this file all over the place for other phones and versions, but just not the Atrix 2.

I'd rather not have to use RSD for just the one file, if I can avoid it.

Thanks in advance!
[Motorola Atrix 2] l0wgray:
I found the 2.3.5 version with size 1,263,073 dated 9/21/2011 5:37PM, if I remember right the 2.3.6 version of the file has a stamp around December 2011.

It might have been around a 2011-12-17 date stamp.
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
This should do the trick :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] l0wgray:
yahooooo! (thanks).

BTW, thank you for your work on rooting A2, love it! ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
No problem, glad to help.

Just for the record, it was NOT me who created the root exploit for 2.3.6. Dan Rosenberg did all the hard work there by creating an exploit for the Droid 4 that also worked for us. In the batch file it should give proper credit to Dan.
[Motorola Atrix 2] l0wgray:
Indeed, thanks to Dan primarily.

However someone had to have the guts to try this out and then provide such easy to follow steps.
[HTC Sensation] Naper72:
Hi,

when setting up active sync on my HTC Sensation our exchange policy require the sd card to be encrypted. After agreeing to encrypt the sd card I left the phone alone for an hour (8G Sd Card). No message or otherwise indication that it started or finished the encryption.

The sd card now seems to have erased all my photos, music and appears as a new sd card when I mount the sd card through phone to computer.

When using another sensation, that phone says my sd card is corrupt.

have I lost all data? What went wrong?

Hi guys.

I'm actually running ICS on my galaxy ace and it's damn cool. I use it all day long for texting. Before switching to ICS I was using GoSMS or Handcent. But the ICS sms app is sooooo smooth and so beautiful - really clear. The contact picture in the notification is a very good thing for me too. That's why I don't want to change for GoSMS or Handcent. But emojis are really cool too, and I'm searching if there's a way to implement them in a modded ICS sms app. It would be really cool.

Sorry guys if my question is dumb :D

Cheers from France.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
normally the answer would be ''good god there are dozens of places telling you this information, good grief, use search!!'' but im feeling friendly, so...

phone into bootloader - use hspl4 to set 2.08.hspl - back into bootloader - flash radio 2.15.50 - reboot phone whilst holding power will start magldr - choose usb flasher - using the nand toolkit select the partition size you want (it will tell you in the rom you want to flash thread, usually post 1) and click partition - this will partition the nand and install clockwork - reboot phone holding power to start magldr - magldr option 8 ad recovery - this will start clockworkmod - advanced - partition sd card (this will wipe your sd card so back it up, , only need to do this once, it creates an EXT partition taht teh phone uses as extra internal storage, 1gb is usually right for most people) - reboot, back into magldr - back into clockwork - mounts and storage - mount sd card - copy the rom.zip you wanna flash to the sd card, still in clockwork choose install zip from sd - select teh rom you copied across - done.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Well you clearly haven't read enough! All of these threads show that flashing a .50 radio unlocks the 576 MB RAM. For f**k's sake, stop posting stupid questions in the Q&A when there have been a tonne of them, just use the search and read properly. It isn't hard.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
assuming you mean you flashed magldr, but it doesnt start magldr? just goes to splash screen?

If yes, then either hspl is wrong or radio is wrong.

hspl MUST be 2.08.hspl - enter bootloader and check the spl line.

If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all, i think is better to ask google to ask some new mombre hiere. because your solution dont work and if a choose 1024mb partition i cant format my sd card and i cant copie the rom inside

Ouch, very sorry to hear it! Do you have the ATT/Asurion insurance? If not, you can claim with homeowners, I think, but you'd have to worry about your deductible there.

Hope you get your Note replaced somehow.

just to let you know... assurion will give you a refurb...not a new unit so you will be getting someone elses problem....and assurion does not refurb well... they leave out screws, use scotch tape to hold things when they dont have screws and usually cause more problems than were there originally.... i see their work daily...... assurion is a rip off.... use your auto or homeowners ins to get a new unit.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
I just bought AT&T insurance, is that the same as Asurion? If so, I really hope I never have to use it based on this thread.

Also, I don't understand the homeowners insurance idea? Isn't the lowest deductible usually $500?? You could buy the phone outright pretty much for that.
