Rethink The Way You Think
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
Today I was watching the barcelona vs chelsea game on my phone and it rebooted. I picked up the phone and it felt pretty warm so I checked the CPU temp in glados kernel and it was at 64c with the "safe limit temp" being set to 61c. I was watching the game on a website that had an embedded flash player, so I had to pinch to zoom it to make the video bigger. In doing that, the video became choppy at times but seemed OK to watch until it restarted itself from I guess overheating. I started watching it again but this time not pinching to zoom the video and it hardly had any choppyness at all and did not reboot itself (so I'm assuming it didnt overheat). Could the whole embedded player thing + pinching to zoom be the culprit of my overheating? or is it my kernel/rom to blame? I haven't done any OC unless its by default in the kernel.

ROM: eclipse 1.1

Kernel: Glados 1.29RC
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Active cooling will help a lot. Passive cooling too. Undervolt in this situation would help a little bit.

bow chicka wow wow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
Not to sound rude but I was asking if what happened to me is normal and if it isn't, could using an embedded flash player + pinch to zoom be the reason to blame? If not, then does that mean its the kernel and or rom?

I don't think I should have to undervolt if I'm running on stock volts/not OC'd.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Well not to sound smart ass but I got right to the solution. Changing roms and kernels will not make a big difference and I am sure you would rather watch bigger mode than squinting. When I do intensive stuff I take my tpu off. And if I'm by my laptop, I might put it on/near my USB laptop cooler. But if you must, change roms and kernels til your content. Or take your battery door off to ventilate and flap your phone real fast like you mean it. :D

bow chicka wow wow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
k ill re ask the question. did my phone overheat because of the "choppyness" of the embedded + zoomed flash player? Or did it happen because thats what you call "intensive stuff"? And would watching NETFLIX for an hour or so be considered "intensive stuff" and cause my phone to overheat and shut off as well? Or do you think the choppyness had a bigger role in the overheating.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T4rd:
I'm pretty sure @rbiter is semi-trolling.. at least I hope so, lol.

OP, it's never normal for your phone to get too hot and reboot under any circumstance. I would definitely try changing kernels. The ROM doesn't control the CPU clock speed and voltages, so that's what's going to make the difference. I'm also assuming you're not using the phone in direct sunlight or in an area where the ambient temperature isn't too hot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SynFox:
Try it out, check temps while watching normal and check temps while watching zoomed. Then you got your answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
Alright so you don't think the choppyness of the video had anything to do with making it overheat? because as I said before, when I left the video at default size it had no chopping at all and it did not overheat/reboot. But I'll def try changing kernels, thanks for your help man.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I would be more worried about battery getting hot than anything. That: s why I am telling you all that. Changing kernels isn't going to make your phone drastically cooler when doing all that stuff. I also do that to help longevity of phone aaaaand battery. Keep doing stuff like that just to mitigate shutdowns you're still going to come back and make a new thread about battery life being crappy and only having phone 4 months or something but not telling us you've been baking fresh batteries watching Netflix and my little pony episodes.

bow chicka wow wow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
bleh..pretty ****ing sad that watching netflix would "bake my battery". Oh well...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T4rd:
There's not much you can do about your battery getting warm though. It's completely normal for the battery to get warm when you're doing anything CPU/GPU intensive (watching HD video or playing 3D games). It would get warm whether you're stock or rooted with a custom LV kernel, though undervolting it would slightly lower the CPU temperature but at the potential cost of stability should he do something that utilizes 100% of the CPU putting it under maximum load. In either scenario, the phone is going to be discharging that battery relatively fast causing it to warm up (as any lithium-ion battery does in any device that's drawing 90%+ its current capacity).

The battery should last at least a year regardless of how he uses the phone before it starts to noticeably lose capacity too. I wouldn't advise anyone to not fully utilize their device just to extend the battery lifespan. Extended OEM batteries are only $25 right now. By the time it dies, it will be considerably less, so it's not that big of a deal even if that were true.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I didn't say don't utilize the phone. Keeping the battery cooler it doesn't lose charge as quick also. Electrons don't travel as well between expanded metal, cells, conductors or whatever. As these phones keep getting more powerful peeps keep losing sight of fundamentals. If I don't have any cooling handy I just go with it. But if you can prop it up without a case on it, you're doing yourself and phone a favor. Holding it in your hand with a case on or laying flat doesn't help dissipate heat. I'm outta here. Too much heat in this kitchen.

bow chicka wow wow.

But I have a guess, I think it's only in already edited pictures...

Anyone knows something?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] madhouze:
Looking through the menus in my ICS i've noticed the option to set "Desktop Backup Password" and thought to myself - "Well, How odd... Android does not have any desktop backup solution built in..."

It took some digging since there wasn't a lot of information online - but I ended up stumbling upon this page:

http://www.tested.com/news/feature/...-data-from-your-galaxy-nexusno-root-required/

As it turns out - Google created a mechanism in ICS to create full desktop backups for apps, data and even system apps, without the need to have the device rooted.

Keep in mind this only works on Ice Cream Sandwich... So don't ask me if this will work on GB based ROMS... It WON'T.

Make sure you have a recent version of ADB on your machine, go to the developer menu, set-up a password, and then use adb with the following syntax to create a backup of your system (taken directly from ADB's help):

adb backup [-f <file>] [-apk|-noapk] [-shared|-noshared] [-all] [-system|-nosystem] [<packages...>]

-f <file> (write an archive of the device's data to <file>. If no -f option is supplied then the data is written to "backup.ab" in the current directory.)

-apk|-noapk enable/disable backup of the .apks themselves in the archive; the default is noapk.)

-shared|-noshared (enable/disable backup of the device's shared storage / SD card contents; the default is noshared.)

-all (means to back up all installed applications. This will include SD-Card backup)

-system|-nosystem (toggles whether -all automatically includes system applications; the default is to include system apps)

<packages...> (is the list of applications to be backed up. If the -all or -shared flags are passed, then the package list is optional. Applications explicitly g
iven on the command line will be included even if -nosystem would ordinarily cause them to be omitted.)

I hope this proves helpful to some of you...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ludrose:
This is awesome i had been wondering if google was going to release a backup tool

Thanks man
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Don't have adb yet but I will after reading this, great find.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] apeironer:
Do you know how you would go about restoring the backup once its created?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] madhouze:
you would also use adb to restore...

syntax:

adb restore <file>

where <file> is, of course, the name of the backup file...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] desrod:
adb requires root, however

This looks like a neat idea, however installing adb itself, requires root, making this somewhat moot.

Does anyone know of an app or method to do a full Android backup to desktop (Mac, Linux or if necessary Windows) which does not require root in any way, so I can completely factory-wipe my carrier-provided Galaxy Note II and restore it, and be back up in running in minutes?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] madhouze:
ADB does NOT require root.

You are limited to the things you can do with ADB when then phone is not rooted - you will not be able to work with the system folders, but you should still be able to create the backup.

Just make sure you go to Settings > Developers Settings, and enable Android Debugging.

Let me know if it works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] splotz:
Exactly what I was looking for.

Thank You!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sferrell615:
for noobs

Just enable developer options, enable USB debug mode, create a desktop full backup password, revoke USB debug authorizations, install ADB on your PC (link below), open CMD and cd to the folder and run "adb start-server" then "adb backup -all"... it will create a backup file in that folder (mine was 200MB) called backup.ab.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niscy:
Anyone using this in 2023? What are the downsides, how does it compare to Google Cloud Backups?

EDIT: okay, that explains why it's not mentioned anymore

% adb backup -all

WARNING: adb backup is deprecated and may be removed in a future release

Now unlock your device and confirm the backup operation...

EDIT2: my backup is only 7MB... doesn't seem right? What's in there?
[HTC Inspire 4G] lay012:
I've rooted mine and and another Inspire 4g without a problem. Now with my sisters phone, I rooted with the ace hack kit it boots the HTC splash screen and then slowly fades off to a black screen even when trying to boot into recovery from the fastboot menu.

Using Ubuntu 11.10, have with the other phones.

No idea where to go from here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Lay, that is covered in the manual...anyway, something might have interrupted the process. Check this, boot into hboot and check if you are already s-off. If you are, then you can flash a recovery img and flash a custom rom. If you are still s-on, then try running the Kit again from that black screen...

if you are still stuck then hit the IRC Channel in the manual and we will lend you a hand.
[HTC Inspire 4G] lay012:
I've read the manual. S-ON... I should have looked and seen if I was before I posted this.. noob move. That's why I couldn't use the PD98IMG.zip in hboot

Edit: Also, if I use the Hack Kit again I get 'Error detecting HTC phone on USB connection

Hit any key to continue'
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Lay, get to the IRC channel....have you factory reseted the phone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] lay012:
Tired from hboot, still loading the HTC splash screen then slowly fading to black.

I'm in the IRC, first time. Not sure how to use it... lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] bozobuttz:
Hooray! I was able to recover my phone using the RUU method in this guide:

[Guide] Stuck on White Screen/Hboot Read This
[HTC Inspire 4G] skuly:
I Had the fade to black issue on the inspire i recently got, i spent hours trying to fix it, i tried using RUU but it would always fail with unknown error, it drove me crazy.

I found out eventually RUU wouldn't work because i "unlocked" the bootloader, once it was "re-locked" i was able to restore it with RUU.

It was a few days ago and it was like 2 am when i finally got it fixed so i am not 100% sure if i had to re-lock or unlock it , but it think re-locking it was what i did to get RUU to work.

downgrade

If your inspire is running something newer than android 2.3 you need to downgrade before flashing. thats if you use the AAHK
[HTC Inspire 4G] Starker44:
The AAHK is really easy after that. The hardest part after rooting was deciding on what ROM to flash
[HTC Inspire 4G] chetansaraf:
need help

... hi i am stuck at 'fade to black' screen. My phone is s-off. Plz guide me how to bring it back to life. I was rooting it with Ace Hack Kit ...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Where you s off when you started?
[HTC Inspire 4G] chetansaraf:
... yes sir it was, n thnx alot for quick reply ...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Np. Since you are s off the kit will hang up. It's only for obtaining s off. You need to install a rooted Rom for root or use dsixda kitchen to root a non rooted Rom. Just pull battery. Enter recovery through hboot and then flash a rooted Rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chetansaraf:
... i have already tried that but same happens with recovery as well, i mean 'fade to black' ...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
From the black screen use adb to send the "adb reboot recovery" command. If that doesn't work then install a factory ruu from fastboot via pc. Then use hack kit option menu to flash recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chetansaraf:
... http://hotfile.com/dl/145185005/5a1...04.03_M_release_200368_signed.exe.htmlLoading. sir if u r talkin aboubt this file then i have downloaded it. If some other file, kindly give me link and shud i simply run it on pc while phone in fastboot ??? And after this process, i think phone will be bak with stock rom ??? ...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Yes run that if you can't use adb to reboot recovery. Your boot.IMG got messed so installing the ruu will put you back to stock and also fix your boot.IMG. You will still be s off. From there all you would need to do is enable USB debugging on phone and use Aahk option menu to flash custom recovery. Then use recovery to install any Rom you choose.

---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 PM ----------

And yes run the ruu from fastboot within bootloader.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chetansaraf:
... thanx alot for helpin me on this but i can only try it in the morning cuz no pc rite now, its 2 am here. So i'l surely let u know in the morning ...

Edit : one more thing will my phone be rooted after ruu ???
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
You will be S-OFF, but not rooted. To get a rooted ROM just flash one from recovery. (I think you might have to flash a custom recovery first if you don't have one?)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
No it won't be rooted. You will have to install a rooted Rom. There are pretty much every flavor of Rom already rooted though on the dev forums. S off just allows you to install them with custom recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chetansaraf:
... thank you sir, now my phone is runnin gud, i installed Bluebot v2 and is runnin gud till now. plz suggest me the best rom for my device ...

---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 PM ----------

... thanks alot dear ...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
It depends on what you are looking for. If you are looking for the best stability stick with gingerbread roms. I have the newer att Rom rooted with an overclocking kernel on the dev forums. Or if you just want root, version 1 is the stock kernel. Android revolution is really popular as well. You will just have to give a few a go and see what you like. Ics and jellybean are available too. The most popular ones in DHD forums right now are blackout and jellytime.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Starker44:
I am currently running AOKP Jellytime version 7 and it's amazing. It could be that I went from 2.3.5 to 4.1.1 (yes you read that right!) regardless it's a stable rom and so far no major issues. Having lots o fun with google now.

What you can actually do is read the manual carefully and find out what to do in that state. Besides that, you shouldn't be using a not supported tool that can brick your device.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
S-On? S-Off? Rooted? Unlocked bootloader? Custom ROM?

I guess the aahk I used bricked it, now I have a htc inspire that fades into a dark screen when I boot it, please mate I really need help. How can I get out from this state, in the aahk manual they said when such happened that I should run another ruu but the ruu I downloaded is not working please where can I get a working ruu for my inspire 4g .

Thanks i really appreciate your responds.

If your device Is bricked, then there is nortihng to be done. Using an unsopported tool Is not adviseable. Read the forum stickies.

Yes mate.. im on s-off n unlocked bootloader... Im just tired of the welcome screen fading into a dark screen after booting... any help since im on s-off ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
flash a custom recovery in fastboot and then a custom rom or flash a RUU directly.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
What does hboot say?
[HTC Inspire 4G] skuly:
I gave my Htc inspire to my brother a while ago and i unlocked the bootloader etc so long ago that i don't remember everything i did but irrc once i re-locked the bootloader i was able to RUU back to stock and start over.

I think the fading to black was only when the os started to load .. i don't think hboot/bootloader screen was black.

I think i used "fastboot oem lock" then flashed an RUU

People keep telling me that its always beneficial to completely discahrge my phone battery and then do a full charge with no interruptions.

But then there are people that tell me to NOT completely discharge it as that'll ruin the battery.

What do you guys think?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zoppp:
Well I believe that with lithium ion batteries, that you should NEVER let them run out of juice completely or you will damage them. Nickel-hydride or something batteries are the ones you should discharge completely to avoid the battery memory effect. So my conclusion is, do not discharge completely. Lithium ions are more flexible when it comes to charging. I personally run my battery down to like 10 percent then charge it. It makes me feel like my battery is preforming well

Sent from my Handheld Portal Device
[T-Mobile LG G2x] titanshadow:
It is all about charge cycles. They have so many cycles, as in... Charging from dead to full. Now if you use your device down to say 60% and recharge then the next day do charge down to 40% and back up that is ONE charge cycle.

So the more you keep the device at 100% the better you are for longevity.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NekoNyapii:
Wow and I've always been thinking that its a really good time to completely drain it. Going to stop that from now on.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
The less percentage you have to charge is directly proportional to longevityof the battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Klathmon:
perfectly put. In fact I'm just going to quote this from now on when people ask this question.

I seen his instructions

Install the Main ROM 1.4 (important: dont install siyah kernel yet )

install aokp gapps

Reboot

and the Faq Link

Reboot into recovery

Wipe Data / Factory Reset

Wipe Cache Partition

Install the Main ROM

Install the Gapps for AOKP

In recovery go to Advanced

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Fix Permissions

Wipe Cache Partition

Reboot

This will be my first time doing this so can someone please dummy this down for me cause the install rom is greek to me, Do i need to put the rom somewhere, is there pre steps i must do before my phone will accept this

Thank you in advance to any one that helps
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bidoa:
Hey,

Im assuming that you still have a factory standard phone so you will first need to root it. If you search google there is loads of guides on how to do this.

then you need to download and install CWM recovery (clockworkmod) again another google search

then you can proceed to the rom installation instructions

download the ROM (zip file ... dont unzip) and stick it somewhere on your SD card

turn your phone off then boot in to recovery by holding volume up, menu key and power button then do factory reset etc and then install zip from sd card (the zip being the ROM)

Please press the thanks button on this reply if you found it helpful

Cheers
