[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsw5700:
Have you got a previous nandroid backup or titanium backup? i think you can restore sms from titanium backups. If you have a nandroid backup, you could restore previous rom, export sms, reflash new, import sms

Sent using TCP/IP
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheeWolf:
No, I have some backups, both nandroid and titanium, but both are irrelevant. I thought that maybe it was possible to restore SMS messages by digging through system files or something like that...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsw5700:
Hi, just upgraded to jw4 from jvu and all sms messages were successfully restored via titanium backup. Have you got a recent TB sms backup you can use (check the date) against SMS

I unlock my phone to installed 4.0.4 thinking this will solve the issue with the phone thinking that is charging when it's not, the problem is back and I would like to lock the phone again so I can send it for repair, I'm using mac an I can't find instructions anywhere, please help

thanks

thanks!, but I need a step by step guide, this is my first time I unlocked a phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
look at stickied threads.. they are there for a reason, no one should have to go out of their own way to walk you through this when all the steps necessary are already available and you don't want to put the effort into finding them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
I just assumed since you said you unlocked it you were just looking for the command.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chanchan305:
there's not a single thread about returning phone to stock on a mac
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
your OP post mentioned NOTHING about returning a phone back to stock. all you asked was for your phone to be bootloader locked again,

.. and yes there are threads. you aren't looking hard enough.

EDIT: after doing a 5 second google search,

http://bit.ly/HzqalU that was the first result. use that thread as a reference and change the names to its new respective names

http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html has links for 4.0.4

that wasn't too difficult now.

Any time I attach a picture to an MMS or app profile pic, it gets turned sideways 90'. It doesnt matter if I take the picture in portrait or landscape. Any suggestions? I'm running shep's miui.us but I dont think the rom is to blame because Ive used it before and never experienced this! Help!
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
I have seen so many skins in the evo 3d theme and app forum,

But i have never really seen a good red skin.

It sucks because i have a red ballistic HC case and i want my skin to be red.

Someone should really think about atleast making a good red theme.
[HTC EVO 3D] ssojyeti2:
It would probably be pointless until fully functional ics comes out. If you want a red themed rom, check out inbREDed or nocturnal venom Rom in the development section.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] azoller1:
First get a different launcher for themes

Then get rom toolbox better if you get the pro version

Then open the rom toolbox and go to interface and there you change a lot of icons like the battery or wifi GPS Bluetooth things like that and change the fonts and lots of other stuff I think this is a lot easier than UOT kitchen but the kitchen has more stuff and you can choose from a lot of different boot animations also in rom toolbox :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] joethaking06:
good find! I'm loving rom toolbox... in combination with go launcher its marvelous
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] bluntsworth:
Yes this is a good app indeed. Replaces like 4 paid apps that I use from the market for rooted phones. Lots of fonts to choose from is what i like too.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] kesongpinoy:
I think you need a deodexed rom when you want to theme icons. I tried using it on the stock 2.3.6 international and it bootlooped. Nevertheless, Rom Toolbox is a very handy app. The free version even comes with a startup manager. It effective block apps from running on startup! :D
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
Hey all. I have a 32 GB US TPT that was on 0075. I rooted it using djrbliss's method, and at some point managed to screw up my systemui.apk. I couldn't get it working again, so I attempted a factory reset. For some reason, that left Superuser in my list of apps, and Superuser will say that it has granted apps superuser permission, but whenever I try to do anything that would require root (like delete a system app), it doesn't work.

Also, I've tried to reinstall stock 0075 from a zip, but when I did that it said something about the update check failing on account of missing system apps.

So I'm kind of stuck. How do I fix this? I want to get the tablet fully re-rooted so I can install CWM and that 0075 no bloat nandroid backup.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
I would first try to run the root script from djrbliss again.

Without root you are not able to restore the system-apps but they are mandatory for any update.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
I forgot to mention that I did try re-running the root script. It gave me error messages saying it was unable to copy any of the stuff like superuser.apk.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
Try the following. As you still can do su and promt changes to #.

Copy busybox to your device:

1. adb push busybox /data/local/tmp (busybox is located in djrbliss root script)

2. adb shell

3. su

4. cd /data/local/tmp

5. ls (to see if busybox is there)

6. busybox mount -o rw,remount /system

7. mount (to see if /system is mounted as RW)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
Did all that, busybox is there, but I don't see /system at all in the list that comes up after mount. Did you mean sysfs? That one says rw.

PS: sorry for being generally clueless about this stuff. This is my first time doing anything much under the hood with Android.

Edit: another curious issue I just noticed: the tablet connects to my computer just fine via MTP, and shows up under adb devices, but when I select mount the SD card, the tablet immediately reboots. Also, it doesn't show up under adb devices if I don't select either, but that might be normal.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
Please post output from mount.

It should look like this for system:

/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system ext4 rw,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
Oh, yeah, that's there, but it's listed as ro. Everything else the same as what you wrote.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
Quiet hard to help without supplying output from shell.

What do you get after typing busybox mount -o rw,remount /system?

Have you tried installing Titanium Backup and running it? I remember one time when I ran TB after running the YAREFTP script to get OTA2 rooted. Titanium Backup reported that SuperUser was installed but it's binaries were incorrect (or something to that effect) and offered to fix it for me. Root seemed fine after that.

Might be worth a try. Also, did you re-install superuser and then run it?

[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
Mhm, so looks like it is not there and it will not prevent your /system to remount as rw.

I'm out of ideas.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
I installed Titanium Backup just now, but it didn't give me any error message like that. I don't know how I'd go about reinstalling Superuser.

Damn, well thanks anyway. I appreciate you helping out.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
Damn, I see the error now :)

As your are in /data/local/tmp mv system/bin/aba system/bin/aba_bak will not work.

So it should be:

busybox mount -o remount,rw /system; mv /system/bin/aba /system/bin/aba_bak
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
I think that one went through. It just accepted the command with no error message.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
If it goes through it should be mounted as rw. Otherwise it is impossible to modify data on /system folder.

Check mount
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
Yep, it appears to be mounted as rw now

So does that mean everything is working properly?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Exe557:
So far it looks ok. As it is mounted as RW you can install CWM recovery now.

Edit: Keep in mind to use correct CWM image for your TPT. It has to fit region and size.

Some people bricked the tablet while using the wrong image.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] qdmcgraw:
I did just now. It worked! Thank you so much! :D

Nice qdmcdraw! Now that I've thought about it. I believe it was OTA Rootkeeper that complained of my 'incorrect' super user. My bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krishmasand:
I am currently on rooted stock 4.0.2 on my GSM Galaxy Nexus. I know I will be able to receive the 4.0.4 OTA, but will it break root or re-lock my bootloader? If so, will be I be able to re-root without losing all of my data?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Yes you will loose root and normally I would say you would not loose your locked bootloader BUT since there apears to be a new bootloader version with this OTA I might be wrong and your bootloader might end up locked again. I myself updated manually and also flashed the bootloader and it did not switch to a locked state but I would not bet on that. Maybe someone else can varify...

Anyway: be sure to make a proper backup and no harm should be done right? It is always possible to re-root and re-unlock. with a proper backup no harm in that ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
use ota root keeper on the play store
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Every update has a bootloader in it. According to Google the Nexus bootloader will remain unlocked.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Thanks for the insight... I thought it would but wasn't sure...

---------- Post added at 09:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 PM ----------

Rooted and unlocked bootloader are no problem for OTA... Custom recovery and any other change are AFAIK...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
oh yeah. i think you're right. i don't have custom recovery. could've waited. oh well. impatience does that to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] talawahdotnet:
You will lose root but it can be restored easily without losing any data. The setuid bit on /system/bin/su was removed by the OTA update. You can simply chmod the file to restore it using cwm recovery and adb.

Full steps can be found here (sorry, I can't post links): blog.talawah.net/2012/04/how-to-restore-root-access-after.html
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] toxaris:
I used Voodoo Root Keeper to restore my root access. However, full root is not restored initially. I started up Titanium Backup and root was restored fully. It was a file right issue why the root was not restored completely.

No CWM needed. Since I want to keep using OTA, I stay far away from CWM.

Hi guyz,

I've got a.prob with my gallery app which is going serious day by day...

Let me explain with an example -

I snapped a pic A and B

Now i want to.delete A and keep B

I deleted A and now i open camera again to snap a pic C,

When i open gallery, in thumbnails, i can see pic C, but as i open it, it becomes the hi-resolution cache ofpic A(which I've deleted, but cache img persisted)

It happens now with more than 20% of my newly snapped pics,...

If i delete the /sd/android/cooliris media folder and .thumbnails folder, everypic shows up good, but after sometime, the problem bounces back :banghead::banghead:

Please someone guide me what should i do to resolve this problem...

Had it once in.my xperia Neo, but i solved it using quickpic apk which is way boring than CM gallery and can't play 1080p video :(
[LG Optimus 2x] pandorious:
I faced the same problem some time ago... I didn't realise early that it was a thumbnail issue and I deleted some pics I wanted...

[General Questions and Answers] N'Rique:
Greetings,

This is my 1st post in the quality of owner (disgusted, disappointed, puzzled and

very upset owner, in fact) of a Samsung Galaxy Gio which i recently acquired led

by a very effective advertising gimmick of Vodafone in my country (PT).

The damned devise does not run either java programs either some other proggies

it accept to install and run ONCE, after the install.

Later on if i retry to run one of the said installed applications it declares:

- "Sorry, unable to run the application. It may have changed and bla, bla". And if I

insist and install it again, it runs ONCE and never again, producing the same irritating "explanation".

Moreover, if i install it once more with feeling, the perverse thing exhibits just 1

or 2 icons (sometimes none, some others: the 3 icons pertaining to the same application, side by side,

but none of them works, except for producing the already referred

"Sorry, umable....a.s.on, etc, etc"

Now, since times ago as a owner of an HTC, i learn to respect most of your advises in general,

i hereby plead for your helping feed-back on these issues, once the Samsung Gio costed me

enough money to block my repeated whims to send it to the garbage bin, or down my 10 store high

apartment window, or hammering it down to an undisguised piece of junk.

Thanking for your possible attention, and ensuing advises...
