[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jameshmiller:
I updated to to 2.3 from 2.2 using Goo. I am getting FAILED on any ROM I try to flash. Even ROMs I've flashed before(e.g. AOKP unofficial 10-10). Anyone else not able to flash? I wouldn't think it's the binary, these are brand new ROM's.

Update: It seems as though AOKP does not have the newest update-binary. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aggrophobik:
Just made the move to this recovery myself (2.3) and am also seeing a lot of posts stating issues with flashing. Was hoping there would be some more info on this in this thread, but seems that's not the case.

I've read of users reverting to prior version, that may be an option for you. I may have to do the same, as this recovery seems a little better laid out interface-wise for my tastes, and I'm interested in trying it more. Hopefully we may hear some news from the OP's/team as to 2.3's issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jameshmiller:
It looks more like an AOKP issue. Apparently they need to update their update-binary.

did you tried that:

you are in cwm.do a rebbot to bootloader from here,and then rebbot to recovery (from bootloader)

then retry flash the rom that befor gave error 7.now for me it works

When I try to fix permissions on this recovery it doesn't appear to do anything. I hit the button to fix permissions, and it instantly says done.

From the original post...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lost Dog:
I've found that 2.2.2.0 backups are NOT compatible with 2.3.0.0.

Restoring a 2.2.2.0 backup results in a system at factory defaults. It's bootable but takes me directly to the setup screen. Thankfully internal storage is intact. Reverting back to 2.2.2.0 gives a successful backup.

I tried this multiple times with different backups. Each time it performs the same. I've not tried a 2.3.0.0 backup with 2.3.0.0 recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jameshmiller:
I restored a 2.2.2.0 backup no problem with 2.3. I had a failed flash because of the noted system mount issue, then stupid me rebooted with out restoring. :o After sitting at the Google unlock screen for longer than usual, I decided to do a battery pull. I booted into recovery and restored a 2.2.2.0 back up with 2.3 with absolutely no problems. It could have some thing to do with the system mount issue. Try un-checking that then try the restore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lost Dog:
I noticed in the Nexus 7 2.3.0.0 thread someone mentioned it was not restoring their data partition. That may be the case here. I was incorrect in stating the back-ups are not compatible but rather the 2.3.0.0 is having a permission issue that does not write the data. I wish I would have thought to look at the logs from the restore!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljv:
So I just flashed this recovery and now my phone won't boot up. Anyone else run in to this or did I f something up on my recovery install?

--Edit--

Guess I screwed up something. Powered back up by holding down volume+home+power, then booted up fine. Reflashed recovery and all is well.

Man, it's Monday, I posted this is the wrong phone/section
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AznInertia:
Is there a reason why the booting to recovery takes so long? I see a long splash screen and then finally into the recovery mode. I know for CW Mod Touch it is almost immediate when you boot to recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dees_Troy:
You probably have a lot of files on your phone. TWRP spends most of its boot time trying to calculate backup sizes. Less files take less time. We like to make sure that you have enough free space for your backups before letting you back up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AznInertia:
Ha ha. No wonder. I do have a lot of files in my Sdcard partition. That makes sense, thanks for the clarification.

Put the wipes and flashes you want into an open recovery script. Then reboot into TWRP and it will do them automatically, like Goo Manger does.

99% of the time all you need to do is factory reset which wipes data & cache & that includes dalvik. System usually gets wiped by the ROM zip.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
Just a question, when doing a nandroid should I backup "recovery" or just leave it alone? I checked "cache" on and I don't know if it matters if I back that up too. I'm coming from CWM and it doesn't give you options as to what to backup so this is new to me. What does everyone else who's running this backup during a nandroid? And does compressing it make the backup take longer? Seems like it takes forever like CWM when compression is enabled.

And while in settings, I hit that little square button in the middle and it said updating partitions but it just stays on that screen unless I hit home or back.

Just FYI. Fix permissions on 2.3.1.0 with a 4.2 ROM just hot boots the recovery. Stupid 4.2 filesystem.

Are CWM compatible w/TWRP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cam30era:
If your question is: can CWM backups be restored via TWRP? The answer is no.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidxRage:
Been hesitating on switching to either a 4.2 ROM or TWPR, bc frankly, my setup just works. Feeling the need to start crackflashing a bit and get some 4.2 love and had a couple questions about TWPR:

1 - With TWPR, it seems since the update at least, that a restore to a prior 4.1.2 ROM would work seamlessly regardless of how 4.2 partitions the file system?

2 - With TWPR, are the commands fairly similar to those in CWR? Wipe Cache, Mounts, Wipe Dalvik? Just wondering if I need to look into those subtle changes before I dive in.

I'm no noob, I can work with some ADB... however I do rely on my phone heavily so I don't want to walk into a gunfight with a knife, so to speak. Thanks for any responses, always appreciated.

Good day. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
To me, TWRP is better in a lot of ways to cwm. You can flash multiple zips at once, the interface is just awesome. If you're coming back from a 4.2 rom, you still need to transfer everything from sdcard/0 back to sdcard, but TWRP will restore back to 4.1.2 regardless. All the options are the same as cwm minus erase bat stats. Oh, and being able to name your backup before you do it is great.

Ever since switching over to TWRP, I am so much happier with the recovery part of my phone. CWM aint got ****e on this this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tbis:
I messed up

I'm a first time TWRP user. I messed up bad.... I was on aliendroidv1 and before that was on 4.2 mmuzzy's rom. I had that nested /0 directory and wanted to get rid of that the next time i flashed to a 4.2 rom. So i came here instead because people were recommending this as a solution. I moved all my files out the /0 and installed TWRP. My first mistake is i didn't realize backups didn't carry over from CWM. I wiped data cache and flashed mmuzzy's 11/20 4.2 with a navbar mod. and all my files were visible on recovery. I sat on the nexus logo for over 15 mins i did a battery pull and went back into recovery and all my sdfiles are gone! I can't do anything.. any way to get my files back or am i screwed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t1.8matt:
I had a similar problem. Ended up having to fast boot my device back to stock. Luckily I back up everything on my computer and on the cloud. I think it would be worth the hassle of just leaving everything in the 0 folder after you flash a 4.2 rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wgbeatty:
My thought of the day "why didn't I flash this sooner?"

Tried out a couple different 4.2 roms and decided to wipe phone completely back to stock 4.1.1 and start over again with flashing 4.1 roms. Flashed TWRP and won't look back to CWM. Thanks to Team Win for a great recovery!

Looks like when I decided to go back to a 4.2 rom, TWRP will deal with the structure changes now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stuckintheskull:
Yes. No problems since upgrading to latest version. No more /0 folders.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blanko6:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cadillac Kid:
I never had any issues with CWM. Liked it fine. Switched to TWRP because everybody said it was "super awesome." Did the switch and now I am having a boatload of problems.

First of all, a restore of the TWRP back up of my CM10 stable did not restore any settings of apps, ringtones, alarms, etc.Today, found out my camera app was not saving to gallery. My pocketcasts app, the images for each podcast is now gone and just text of what the podcast is, image wont come back.

Did a complete wipe, fresh install of CM10 and latest 4.1.2 apps, still camera not saving to gallery, pocketcast images still gone. Maybe some setting somewhere is clicked on/off but I am cleary not savvy enough to solve the problem. Any assistance would be great.

I was running Cm10 stable with the same apps for weeks prior to switching my recovery, now the issues started...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fcisco13:
I never had any problems, been using it for a long time now, never messed with the settings left everything how out was.

If you have your cwm back ups then flash cwm and restore a good backup, then flash twrp latest 2.3.2.1 and do a backup right away.

WHATCHOO TALKING BOUT WILLIS?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cadillac Kid:
ok, this whole SDcard0 thing is screwing everything up....how do i fix this. I changed the download path but I still have the duplicate/mirrored SD card. Good grief, should've stuck with CWM. My recoveries keep looking in two different places...my CWM backups are visible in TWRP but not in CWM....my recent downloads in TWRP aren't visible...etc.etc....

I had tried to install a 10.1 last week, and apparently there is some SDcard0 issue.....so I think that is where my trouble may be coming from. I have no clue how to fix this....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mssam:
The latest twrp (2.3.2.1) should work well with the whole sdcard0 thing, but even with the previous version, you can still get to the files from your old sd folder through the twrp file manager in recovery. Just move the important ones you need (like a tibu update) to any of the new folders and start with those when you flash. Once you're up and running, you can use something like root explorer to move the rest of them. It's a bit of a pain, but it beats wiping your whole internal storage, losing everything and starting over from scratch...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
I'm really confused. I switched to a 4.2 ROM and now my TWRP Nandroid can't see any of my backup files even though they are there, in the /0 folder?

I hope Google fixes this /0 folder bug. It's messing everything up!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melp57:
Where can themes be found for this wonderful recovery? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TMFGO45:
Why do people keep saying this /0 folder stuff is a bug? I'm under the impression it's normal and used to keep multiple users files on the sdcard hidden from the other users. Am I wrong?

I bought the Nexus 10, it wanted to update right out of the box, and guess what, that's how it is on there too. Stock.

So again, am I missing something?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BriVG:
Not a bug, it's googles file structure to incorporate multiple users. If you add a user then you'll have a /0 and a /10, that's the explanation I received anyway.

Do you think the power button is way to damn sensitive!!!!!! For like 2 weeks I thought I was having processor problems with my phone resetting, but then after a little testing I noticed the power button on our phones require little pressure to activate it. You can seriously just hold your phone over the button without applying any pressure and it will activate. I noticed having a good case helps with the problem. I have a Trident case and a Casemate. The Trident case is practically unusable because the phone will constantly reset with it on. Whats your guys thoughts?

Hi there,

i'm sorry if there is another thread about that but i really didn't find it even i searched many hours!!! If there is already another one i would be grateful if you would give me the link to it.

My Question is as simple as short:

I've got a Sony Xperia Arc S (LT18i) and got the new official Android 4.0.3 realese. Everthing is fine except the UI of Sony Ericsson. Now i want to know if there is any way to get the "untouched" android 4 for my mobile phone as the one for Nexus. So: The Original Android 4 of Google without any themes, icons, branding just the necessary driver for the camera, mic, etc.

My phone will not turn off. I hit the power button and say yes to allow the phone to shut down completely and it just reboots. Even if I flash back to stock it still does this. I have found a thread for a different phone and ROM than I have but could it possibly work does anyone know. The link is below.

Also I have no idea if this is relevant at all but about two months ago I took my battery out of my phone because it was acting up. When I placed the battey back in the phone I attempted to enter CWM and accidentally ended up in download mode. I then realized that my flash counter was returned to 0 from 1. I have no idea how it happened. But it did. It was from this point on it seems that the phone not turning completely off began. The phone works fine. Just wont turn off.

Anyone have and idea? Or think the thread I posted would help?

If you run at 240 their aren't really any cons as it is still a native Android density. Other densities will give you market compatibility issues. Apps will work at other densities but won't download from the market.

There are modded markets that will make the market think you are running another density then you are so apps will download.

The Pro's are everything looks crisper and better at lower densities and you can get much more information on the screen.

I run my phone in Tablet mode at a 160 density and it looks great!

Just remember when making the density lower you can enlarge the text by going into the settings menu then display.

Hey guys, I just received an old Motorola Defy. It works perfectly fine but has got a problem with charging. I have plugged it in for more than 3 hours and it still show Charging 10%. The battery fails to charge to more than 10%. The mobile has no T-Mobile branding, neither on the phone itself and neither on the box that came along with it. But when I switch it on it shows the T-Mobile logo after the motoblur animations. Right now, sim cards other than T-Mobile are working perfectly fine, but I was thinking of doing a Factory Reset to get rid of all the junk that the previous owner installed on this phone. A friend also recommended this to see if the battery problem goes away but I am afraid that the phone will get locked and I do not have any unlock codes for this phone so it would be disastrous for me.

The details are as follows:

System Version: 34.906.1.MB525.T-Mobile.en.GB (so I think it is the UK version)

Firmware Version: 2.2.2

Baseband Version: EPU93_U_00.59.02

What should I do guys? Any help would be appreciated!

P.S. How to turn off Cellular Data on this phone because as soon as I turn off the wifi it starts eating up my Data.
[Defy General] rishi2100:
To turn data off - go to settings...battery and data manager...Data delevery...from here turn off data enabled.

For your first problem...

If you are Rooted, try deleting battery stats first...

If not, root it and delete battery stats...(You can do it by installing battery caliberator from market)...

If this doesn't wort, keep faith on XDA members ;)

I bought it from a local store here in Pakistan. They said if I root the device I would lose my 6 months warranty. These guys provide their own warranty for devices that are imported from other countries. I do not understand whether this is really a T-Mobile UK version as it says so in settings (and the startup screen) or a retail version as it says on the box SM,MB525,GB,RETAIL,LIC (it does not have any T-Mobile branding on the box or the phone itself). I think the retail version should be factory unlocked, shouldn't it be? But then why does it show T-Mobile?
[Defy General] rishi2100:
If its in warranty, then why don't you give your defy to service center...

BTW i think you can unroot your phone by using superoneclick...but search first for this on xda ...i will not be responsible for anything happens to your phone...

Yeah, I will take it to them tomorrow. It went down quickly from 10% to 0, when I recharged it again, it got stuck on 5%. I checked the phone's battery with another app from Google Play that didn't require Root Access and it said that the battery was in good condition but couldn't calibrate it until the battery was charged to 100%. Tough luck! Thank You for your reply, do you know why this phone is showing T-Mobile while on the box it says RETAIL?
