Yogi, you're brilliant!

[facepalm] Of course! This is why my Advanced Restore attempt with Modaco failed--because I used the CWM 5.0.2.7 backup, which did not have the files Modaco would have referenced. Duh! I wasn't even thinking along the lines of a file type mismatch between the two recoveries. :o Baka baka baka...

At this point, not a hassle, but the best chance to accomplish this thing with a minimum of fuss and bother. I'll give this a shot right after a bit 'o java. Thank you, Yogi, for highlighting something that should have been obvious to me when Modaco gave the error message that "data.img" didn't exist. Oy!

However, this still leaves unanswered the question of why CWM 5.0.2.7 is tossing up the md5 mismatch error when one tries to use Advance Restore, and that files aren't seen by CWM via Advance Restore until one accesses regular Restore. Paperskye is having the exact same problem in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1624319 . Should this be brought to the attention of the CWM devs? It really seems like a rather show-stopping error for CWM...unless Advanced Restore isn't really used with 5.0.2.7 and the MT4GS. There just doesn't seem to be a good reason for the observed behavior.

Many thanks for your encouragement. I'll report back with results on the next try with Modaco --

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] KingCheetah:
It's a beautiful thing!

Using Modaco for my backup prior to the update, then Advanced Restore of data afterward = perfect restore of my phone environment with 1.63 on board. :D Done with as little fuss as I was hoping to encounter. Yogi, you get the prize. The only thing I had to manually put back was my custom boot animation, but that's trivial.

I think I'll just leave Modaco on as my recovery for now, since AR is functional with it and CWM 5.0.2.7 is not. Makes me wonder, from just an everyday backup standpoint, is there any real advantage of CWM over Modaco? I wish there was more information on how the recovery module functions on the CWM website--I'd like to read up on it for educational purposes. Guess I'll do a Google to find more.

So ridiculously happy right now. In a stew of things going wrong, at least something went right. :p

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] championswimmer:
hi!

@mods i don't know which section this should go to... maybe general?? anyways ... my good friend colossus has said "when in doubt, always post in Q&A" so that's what i did, incase this was to be in some other section, please move it...

i am taking the plunge to try and compile aokp for arc as well as my current phone which is x10 (i do not have an arc of my own, but my cousin has one)

here's how i begin (my build requirements are fulfilled)

mkdir ~/aokp

cd aokp

repo init -u git://github.com/AOKP/platform_manifest.git -b ics

ok well now if i do repo sync then itt'll take me at least 15 hrs to do it (i have a 2mbs connection which is too slow frankly)

so what i do is

sudo gedit .repo/manifest.xml

and here is my edited manifest

http://pastebin.com/cqfrYvcG

you'll notice that unrequired htc,samsung and motorola devices have been commented out (why waste bandwidth downloading files i wont ever need???)

also i've included es209ra(which is x10) and anzu and msm7x30 common (required for arc) reops from cyanogenmod github

now i've done this because from ~/aokp folder, next whenever i run repo sync then freexperia team's changes committed to cm9 will automatically get synced.. nice na??

whatever... if anyone is interested in AOKP go forward with this...

i'm NOT a dev and i'll just try the default build procedure, and if i run into roadblocks, i WILL give up because i do NOT have the developmental knowledge to edit sources to make it run ...

Help with rooting 2.3.5

Using megatron root I have followed several different threads to a tee. un-installed all drivers and restarting laptop .updated drivers to most recent tried several different drivers even p920, tried to fully reset the phone through stock 3e recovery full wiped everything. Still getting ADB not recognized as internal or external command. Tried two different downloads of Megatron root. Ive even tried Superoneclick several different versions.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Lekerstein:
Hey all,

I recently got the official Samsung car dock for our phones but am having issues charging it through the cig lighter. Everytime I plug it into the phone, I blow the fuse for the lighter in my car. I've tried different plug-in sequences (like turn on the car first, then plug it in, then plug in the phone, etc.) to no avail. I've probably gone through about 3 fuses so far.

Since I have a custom stereo installed that I installed myself, I figured I borked up some wiring. However, today I tried to plug it into my wife's car (stock stereo) and immediately blew her fuse, too.

So, before I call and complain to Samsung, does anyone else have this issue? Could this have to do with a bug in CM9? (running the nightlies)

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shyne151:
Sounds like something is shorting out internally on the charging dock. Do you have a multimeter? You could check continuity between the negative prongs(ones on the side of cigarette plug) and the positive prong(one on the end of the cigarette plug).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Lekerstein:
Yeah I do have one. What will I be looking for with that test? I got the multimeter for Xmas a while ago but have never really used it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Evewon:
Why test?

There is no reason to test, it is 100% the dock's wiring. Just return it, I have had similar issues with other car stuff, like an xm radio dock. Just take it back, don't waste anymore time with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Lekerstein:
Well sure enough I did do a continuity and there is no continuity. I'll be returning it to AT&T. Here's hoping the store will exchange it for me even though I ordered it online. All I need is the cig lighter... the actual dock works perfectly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] superdog404:
Charger

I also have the same problem as the op. In metering it, it does seem to be shorted. I haven't blown any fuses but the light on the charger goes out and it looks to be shorted. I got a replacement and it does the exact same thing. I torn the one charger apart and couldn't fine anything wrong that I understood. To get it apart I pretty much broke all of the plastic but the circuit board came out OK. I tried to use a razor blade and scribe around the joint. Just would not come apart. I tried to email Samsung and got no answer. I've just gone on and used another charger that works. It sure appears that there is a problem with a lot of them. I'd like to see it fixed but?

superdog404
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thanitos:
If you're sure it's not a short you can put in a larger fuse into your car just an increase of 5 should help you also have to think how much power the phones may be pulling and the cars not being made to charge a smart phone

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TSS888:

Okok, some comparisons..

For one, Super Amoled Plus (SAP) will have true blacks since the pixels are completely turned off when displaying black, unlike LCDs which only display a (very) dark grey due to the backlight being constantly on.

SAP screens also have a wider viewing angle compared to the sLCD.

He didn't say bright white, he said right white. I guess me means a realistic white color that has correct temperature and not tinted. It can make a big difference for reading text when the background is white as well.

I personally think IPS display can produce some very accurate colors, usually more accurate than AMOLED. I still love AMOLED for its excellent black level, viewing angle and ability to view under direct sunlight, which is the main important thing. I am very impressed with the One X screen though.

Dear all,

This is my 1st post in XDA developers. And this is the first time I use Android system on a smart phone named Huawei Honor U8860. I learnt from websites and I know how to install ClockWorkMod. After installed stock rom from Huawei China (China site). I found out that I can't install any rom after that (always Update Failed). So I decided to format all the thing on my phone by using ClockWorkMod (/boot, /sdcard, etc...) and now my phone starts on blue screen and I realized that there is no image folder on the folder (the folder that you put recovery-v8.img file to setup ClockWorkMod). Now what do I have to do to bring back the recovery or someone please send me the image folder and guide me how to install rom for the phone since there is nothing left in my phone!

Regards,

Paul
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeuXGod:
Download orginal GB 2.3.6 from international Huawei site.

Make dload folder on root in memory card and put the UPDATE.APP (some ROMs also have UPDATE_CUST.APP, don't leave it out) inside the folder

Start up phone with volume up/down pressed while pressing power button.

edit: if not work, try this other : https://rapidshare.com/#!download|309p5|4238175827|UPDATE.rar|0 , unpack rar, make a dload folder in the sd card, put here the update app, and flash like a stock rom, later, install the official one
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usrpaul:
Thank you Paul! Now I find the solution for this, at first, if you installed the 2.3 Chinese rom that post on Huawei China (the first 2.3 rom posted on 2012-03-08)

It will prevent you from install ANY OTHER roms, so if you want to install another rom, there is an update patch for this one (the one that paul89... has posted above).

After that you can freely install any official/stock rom on Huawei Devices.

And for the users that format

everything

(/boot, /sdcard, /system, etc...) and your phone show up as a blue screen instead of pink screen when u press the power button (yeah there is no image folder in recovery partition).

Download the 2.3 stock rom from Huawei China (above)

Get your SD card out of the phone, using the USB/SD card converter tool to plug it to ur PC as an USB, copy the rom (dload folder in the zip) to the card.

After that, plugin your SD card to your phone, then press Volume + - and Power and the phone will go straight into upgrade firmware.

Then use the Paul89 patch that I've shown above, copy the dload folder to your SD, remember to delete the old one, use storage upgrade function of your Android to apply the patch. And now ... you can freely jailbreak the prison of stock Huawei China rom :D

SUTL?

Maybe a bit late, but in my experience, using SUTLR to flash ROMs (official/custom) works the best. It overwrites & updates everything (i.e. if you have CWM, it will be overwritten) and you will have the phone just like you got it from the dealer.

Dear rammy,

This is the first time I use android system on the phone and I found out that it's much complicated comparing with iPhone and I don't know any tool to use with it :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rammyboy:
SUTLR - Quick Guide

You can use it for any ROM that comes in .nb0 format. Since most custom ROMs are in .zip format you can use it mostly for official ROMs. However, there are other custom ROMs (such as on andro-id.net) which come in the .nb0 format.

1. SUTL is quite simple to use. You can download it from the net (latest version is v1.8.2). Install it (works only with Windows) and you are ready to use the application.

2. To use SUTL to flash your ROM, boot your phone in download mode (i.e. where you have the message - Incoming Download Mode polling) when you boot.

3. Connect your phone via USB cable to your PC. The device will get recognized and Windows will attempt to open the folder (similar to when you insert a pen drive). You can close this window

4. Start SUTLR. Click on next and using the Browse button, navigate to the .nb0 file. The file must be named firmware.nb0. Click on next and the screen shows the progress of ROM installation. DO NOT DISCONNECT TILL COMPLETION

5. Once the ROM is installed, you need to remove the battery to come out of download mode. Restart the phone and the new ROM will start up.

Note: Please take backup of data and/or ROM (including recovery.img). SUTLR will replace everything (i.e. it will even unroot the phone if you flash an official ROM)

Hope this helps. I am also a beginner and this "guide" is based on other posts as well as my experience.
