[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phloggy:
Greetings, this is my first post. I could not find this issue addressed elsewhere, but please direct me if this has already been discussed.

I had previously been using Team EOS ICS 1.0.0 without difficulty. After installing this first stable release, I enabled full device encryption.

This morning I upgraded to 2.0.0 (without first doing a factor reset to get rid of the encryption, which I suspect is my root mistake). I assumed I could factor reset after the install of the new version.

I was able to successfully update to 2.0.0 and everything seems to work fine, but I find I am unable to do a factory reset. Listed below is everything I have already tried. Any suggestions as to next steps I could try?

Thanks!

From the OS:

Went to settings -> Backup and Reset -> Factor Data Reset

result: Reboots, then hangs at the triangle/bang with android pic. No activity after 30 minutes.

From Clockworkmod Recovery v3.2.0.0

- Tried "wipe data/factory reset"

result: seemed to work, but too fast. Upon reboot my data is still present. Gmail wiget seems to be missing (wierd?) but otherwise everything seems to be the same.

From Clockworkmod Recovery v3.2.0.0

- Tried "format /data"

result: Error formatting /data!

From ADB version 1.0.26

Tried "fastboot erase userdata"

result: hangs with the message < waiting for device >

I'll keep searching Google results for a clue, but would welcome advise. Thanks!

If you have a backup, roll it back to Team EOS ICS 1.0.0 do your Factory Data Reset from there. If not Backup ur stuff, Unroot, then ReRoot start from scratch. It doesn't take long to put all of your stuff back.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phloggy:
I figured it out, noob mistake. Turns out I had to start the fastboot protocol before I could use it. I started that up and tried again and was able to factory reset.

Thanks!

Hello, im having some issues with my TF101, the screen has stopped working completely, the device was working yesterday, i sleeped it and it never came back on, thought it was dead, had it plugged into my computer over night.. nothing. plugged into the wall for a few hours.. still nothing. called asus today, they had me hard reset (vol down and power) no image on the screen, backlight doesnt even come on. After a few min tho after that hard reset my tablet made some noise but no picture on the screen. They want me to send in the unit.

Its currently rooted, on latest CWM and running CyanogenMod9

How can i unroot my transformer without using the device at all. plugged into the pc i can still browse the files on it, and i think i might be able to use ADB, i did have it set on before this all happened.

If you used nvflash to root your device then you have a sbk1. You can nvflash this back to stock without root. I have not tried this for I have not needed to unroot. Read the OP.

I just had a BSOD – freaked me out because I'm working on assignments at the moment and a dead PC would be disastrous.

I tried installing the debugging tool to read it but it tells me it couldn't locate the file path during installation – its sounding like its just not liking its own install exe...

I'm using Windows Vista, and I did go for the right version as far as I'm aware, so I'm not sure what's going on. I tried downloading it again etc, no luck. I'll probably spend as much time trying to sort out the debugging tool's issues as working out a solution for whatever caused the crash... so...

If someone who has the debugger installed is feeling like generating some positive karma for themselves by doing a quick read-over as to suspected problem I'd be immensely grateful (this doesn't do justice to how grateful I'd be...) :o:o

Use Windows 7 or XP.

Usually a normal restart works. Although, it might be a good idea to find out the reason for the BSOD.
[Off-topic] salxtai:
Yeah, well aware of Vista's issues. Its been pretty much fine, until this BSOD.

Parents' PC is XP but not at home for a few weeks, and have assignments to do in that time, hence wanting to know if there's something I should be doing to stop a more catastrophic event...

Have you installed something recently out of the ordinary?
[Off-topic] Archer:
Guys leave him alone. Windows Vista is the best thing to happen since Windows ME.
[Off-topic] salxtai:
Nope.

The reason I'm more concerned about this BSOD is that my graphic card has had a tendency to overheat if I play games and shuts itself off to prevent damamge, and even with simple things like word processing / net surfing it sits in the 70sC if I don't force the fan up to 60%.

Case cover is off to help - it started happening after coming back from holidays. Cleaned it out best I could but didn't help the overheat issue, so some mysterious thing happened to it while I was gone.

If it is the graphic card that's caused that BSOD then I need to seriously bring forward my plans to upgrade my PSU to get a newer card before it causes any significant dmage to other parts.

I was putting it off until holidays (in 3 weeks now, but been happening since Feb).
[Off-topic] superbeak:
It's things like this that make me glad that I've stayed on xp for all these years. Have you tried a restore point? I think it could be your graphics card doing it when it shuts itself down.

I was wondering if I could install BroodROM RC5 without the ICS theme?

I would like a stock looking KQB rom with a few extra's like:

- extended power menu

- extended pull-down menu (13 toggle)

- other kernel like skyhigh with tunderbolt

- removed bloatware

- TouchWiz 4

- Battery indicator with percentage

Akry's ROM comes very close to my wishes, but when I flash it the CPU is still running on 1400 Mhz while it should be 1800 Mhz. When checking Virtuos OC Deamon I can't change a thing. The scroll down menu's say !set.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
First off, thanks for stopping by to assist. Secondly, I just bought a used G2X off ebay and it came already rooted, with super user already installed. However, there's no rom on there and it's still running Froyo 2.2.2.

I haven't messed with rooting, recovery, or ROMs since my G1 so I'm quite rusty, leaving me with a few questions.

1. I know LG just released a Gingerbread update, yet I can't access it or any of the previous updates through the about phone update area. That's because I'm rooted right? I wouldn't mind just having stock 2.3.4 on here for now.

2. I don't know if the previous owner already put a custom recovery on here or not (not very talkative) so is there a way for me to check that? I was reading that if I boot into recovery without a custom one installed, the default recovery automatically starts wiping and reformating and I don't want that.

3. And just a general consensus question, coming from my horrible Samsung vibrant, GB roms are the way to go with this phone right, avoid the ICS?

Thank you in advance for all your help. Appreciations.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
To check if you have a custom recovery power off phone and then boot into recovery mode via Power + volume down until you see 2nd LG logo, then release. The recovery type will be on top of the screen and bottom if I remember right. To update through Over The Air, I believe you need to be stock completely.

1. unroot, and most of what you need is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1049154

2.That might be the case I'm not sure, I think completely factory resetting the phone is doable by holding power + volume down/up... Not completely sure as that is as far back as I can remember when the phone was 1st released a year ago. the least you can do is try if you plan on flashing a custom rom.

3. Personally I like CM7 based roms... or at the least 2.3.3 roms, that have been customized.

Overall this phone is cake walk compared to flashing the G1 with all the partitions and the gold card and what not...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
That's what I was going to do, but then I read this:

To perform a master reset using the hardware keys, follow these steps:

Back up all necessary data. See: Prepare for a master reset and back up data on Android

Turn off the phone.

Press and hold the Power and Volume Down, key.

The phone will turn on and display the LG Logo

Wait 30 seconds and thephone will display the open box and arrow pointing towards the phone.

Release the keys, and the phone will reset back to the start up screen.

And so I'm catious about checking that right now because I don't want it to reset right now, kind of has used to use it right now.

I actually miss root, so I think I will stay rooted and check out one of these nice GB ROMS. Man, I have missed custom ROMS lol Now it's just a matter of deciding which is the best to use. So out of th eloop anymore on this stuff.

And yeah, the G1 was an adventure. Soft bricked it twice before.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Ummmm well either way if you do flash a custom rom, you are gonna need to wipe regardless. PM with any questions after you do some searching. All the links and questions you have should be out there already.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kwes1020:
Thank you for posting an intelligent thread. Basically if you don't want to wipe then you need to install cwm through nvflash, then create a backup. After that flash a rooted froyo rom. If you flash gb over froyo you will most likely have issues if you do not wipe properly. You can try it...but more then likely issues will arise.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] 2war:
ICS roms are buggy and are awesome but if you dont want any problems GB shouldn't fail you. The first ROM I used were ICS but after months of not being able to record anything I had to try out GB and so far these roms are perfect. The ICS are still badass but I suggest you mess around with all of them though G2x has awesome devs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aieto:
I can confirm that if you hold the volume down and power until the second LG screen comes up you will factory reset the phone. I accidentally did it yesterday when I flashed the stock recovery back on the phone and wanted to check and see if it had worked. I'm a complete noob with flashing etc but like mt3g said all the info is here just look around for it.

I got this doubt.. I was using stock ROM (Android 2.1) and kernel for my X8 and i had app2sd 2.1, when i recently updated to 'latest' FroyoBread.. I had problems with updating, so i removed app2sd, reformated the SD card and it worked.

When i finally moved to FroyoBread, i started installing the applications, and just got stuck! And it said that there are no more space for any more apps.. I used app manager that came with Froyo, to move some apps to SD, but that didn't seem to do the trick.. Reinstalling app2sd didn't also work..

Do i need to setup some other version or there's some catch?

From HoneyComb to ICS

I have a Rooted Iconia A500.

Rooted it with XDA V4

Now I have Root+ CWM & Stock HoneyComb 3.2.1

Some Questions?

Should I update the Acer Iconia A500 from the OTA Update to ICS?

If Yes, Will I Loose ROOT & CWM?

OR

I have downloaded a Acer ICS ROM ICS (Pre-Rooted) From:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25652848

If I put the "Acer_AV041_A500_1.031.00_WW_GEN1-FULL-ROOT.ZIP" File in Root of SD Card-> Boot into Recovery-> Apply Update from SD Card....

Will I have a Rooted ICS ROM with Custom Recovery?

What about the ICS bootloader and custom recovery? Do I have to follow the steps here: (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622425) for installation of the same?

I am a newbie. But having followed the Procedure for Rooting Stock 3.2.1 I managed to Get ROOT & Installed Acer Recovery Installer (Android Market) for Custom Recovery on Acer Iconia A500 3.2.1.

Now I wish to update to ICS but am totally confused about the "ICS bootloader and custom recovery"

My Question is:

Having Downloaded Pre-Rooted ICS ROM From CIVATO's Post, Do I need to do anything more than simply putting the ROM in the SD Card & Update?
[Acer Iconia A500] YndTruD:
You can update to ICS4.0.3 by OTA, when install unlocked ICS bootloader (for future installing patched kernel).

Unlocked ICS bootloader from cevato thread has CWM.

As far as know, you must install official or leak ICS4.0.3 first.

2 roms files ec.rom and EC_flash from original acer update must be flashed.

Civato version of update (Acer_AV041_A500_1.031.00_WW_GEN1-FULL-ROOT) doesnt install this important part of rom.

When you can run ICS Root v6 for obtain root or use patched kernel with su and busybox (packed in update.zip for CWM from another civato thread).

You need unlocked bootloder only for installing CWM recovery. ICS Root v6 based on memprodroid exploite easy root your Iconia.
[Acer Iconia A500] alap1983:
Thanks for the reply.

As Civato has Pre-Rooted ROM, I would prefer the same.

However, Acer's inbuilt update has been pestering me for Updating to ICS. Will updating OTA wipe ROOT & CWM Custom Recovery?

If I were to follow your advise:

I put the Civato's ROM as UPDATE.ZIP in the root of the SD Card.

Boot into Recovery & Install Update from SD Card (After the Necessary Wipes, Correct?)

NOW what are these two files that are u referring to? "ec.rom and EC_flash" from original acer update. Where Do I find these files?

How & When Do I Flash these?

Please, I am newbie. After following the method highlighted in the "root-3.2.1-V4" File I managed to get ROOT Access & CWM installed on Acer Iconia A500.

Now I want to update to ICS & Have ROOT + CWM. How Do I go about doing that.

From What I have researched:

Put The ROM as Update.Zip in the Root of the SD Card, Boot into Recovery & Apply Update from SD Card.

I chose Civato's ROM since it claims to be "Full root patched kernel" That is Pre-Rooted Right?

AND "Bootloader.blob & stock recovery removed. (your custom recovery and bootloader stay intact)" That is my CWM & Bootloader which currently works is not touched.

However, Post Updating to ICS (Civato's ROM) Do I have to "get ICS bootloader and custom recovery."?

If Yes, Will the Tool "blackthund3r_ICS_Root_6.0" Get me the desired ICS Bootloader & Custom Recovery?

Please confirm if the Procedure I mentioned is correct or not.

If Yes, Could you please point me in the right direction for the Relevant files & Tools?

1. "ec.rom and EC_flash" from original acer update.
