Why Not ODIN?

Thanks, a few things I want to clear up though? I've heard that Heimdall doesn't work with Galaxy S2. Is that correct? In any case, isn't it just the same kind of program that ODIN is? I've been trying to use ODIN to flash a file called

recovery-cmw-hercules.tar

but it always fails. What will Heimdall do differently?

You can tell I'm pretty new to this, have patience with me please.

Incidentally, when I try to run ODIN, on the assumption that I'm seeing a download mode screen, I can get ODIN to detect the phone and I see COM(6) usually in the yellow-highlighted screen. I check only "auto reboot" and "PDA," and in the PDA field I insert the location of the tar file (above). Here's the result:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tracerit:
I've read about this on the Galaxy Nexus but I'm not sure how it works. Is it like how my mom's Kodak point and shoot camera works, where it shows up as a device instead of a drive? Also where you can't show stuff like "size, date created, etc"?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
It shows up like a camera, kinda. You can still get a "details" view of the files though in an explorer window (or with AFT on OSX).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iLeopard:
I use OSX so sadly I am only able to share my experience from that perspective. I've only used MTP but when I connect it Android File Transfer comes up automatically. Its nothing more than a simple file explorer in which you can add or remove files but not move them around or anything like that. The big advantage of MTP however is that I am able to use the internal storage while the device is "mounted" on my computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmmajor:
It sucks a$$..just know that..I hate it its glitchy n slower than usb
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tracerit:
what kind of slow are we looking at? i'm currently used to 2.5MB/s transfer speeds with my "class 4" MicroSD card on my Epic Touch 4G.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
The transfer speed is the same... it's just USB2.0 speed. The tool/protocol in tandem with explorer can be kinda slow to respond though.

Using AFT on OSX, I've had no issues with speed. Its often even faster than UMS because there's no mount/unmount time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WarbyParker:
My biggest gripe with AFT is that it crashes the USB stack on my MacBook Air, then the keyboard and trackpad stop working.

Anybody else have a similar issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Never happened to me before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iLeopard:
Yeah that doesn't happen to me either
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
AFT freezes every time I try to use it. I'm using Airdroid now and it works really good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Its definitely finnicky. I do my best to unlock the device, plug in, transfer, and unplug. Get it done and get out!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] housry23:
My experience is it works great with Windows, but not in Ubuntu or Linux Mint & since I use Linux I don't like it. I use wifi explorer pro to transfer files.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Product F(RED):
I don't like it. I'm on Windows so it works naively. On my Galaxy S II you could just use a widget called Multi-Mount that allowed you to do the same thing, except they'd show up as normal drives (I say they because if you use the microSD slot in the S2, you get two drives, internal and microSD), not an MTP connection.

That's not the reason for using MTP though. MTP is being used because all of the device's memory is pretty much one one partition and anything beyond that is symlinked. So no more 2GB of app storage and 30GB of whatever. It's all app storage, file storage, etc. That's what makes the Galaxy Nexus's internal storage configuration different from any other phone's. They used MTP because, since the OS is also sharing the same big memory partition, it needs to be accessible by the CPU to continue running while you're transferring files.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
And this is why Google is going with single partition storage w/o expandability and MTP transfer. It's the best overall solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Product F(RED):
There was nothing stopping them from adding a microSD card slot though. It could have showed up normally. Like I said, on my Galaxy S2, through a normal connection, I have two drives show up. One is for the microSD card slot, and one is for the internal 16GB storage. They're non-MTP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
But it'd be the same bad experience of having separate storage areas and having MTP for part and UMS for the other part. Its best to just keep it all internal and use MTP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tracerit:
just read up on the MTP transfer speeds. Looks like i'll have to go into CWM to transfer :(

Is it slow transferring from phone to PC also?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Its not slow... At least on OSX it's been just fine as I said before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sdobron:
Works great in windows. Can't get it working in Linux at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
MTP is fast for me.

I transferred 3gb of video in about 10 minutes. Its not revolutionary, but its not slow.
[Atrix 4G General] Atrix_Guy:
Hello, I registered and created this thread because I couldn't find anything about my problem.

I looked for hours on this forums and googled a lot but still I can't resolve this.

Well here is the thing... I bought a used atrix 4g (AT&T), it came with 2.3.6 (4.5.141) unrooted

and bootloader locked. After a lot of reading I unlocked the bootloader and did a backup

so I wouldn't have any problem after that if I wanted to return to stock. Then, today I tried to

install CM7 so I did another backup just in case using CWM and installed it like it was

told from here:

wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Motorola_Atrix_4G:_Full_Update_Guide

*Boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery.

*Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side volume buttons to move around, and either the power button or the trackball to select.

*Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.

*Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.

*Select Install zip from sdcard.

*Select Choose zip from sdcard.

*Select the CyanogenMod update.zip.

*Once the installation has finished, select +++++Go Back+++++ to get back to the main menu, and select the Reboot system now option. The Motorola Atrix 4G should now boot into CyanogenMod.

After the installation finished it rebooted and stayed at the Motorola logo so the first thing I thought was... this might take a while so I'll just wait for it.

After around 15 minutes it was still there so I flashed my backup back because I read that would make my atrix go back to stock like it was before.

After it finished flashing all the stuff back it stayed on the logo screen again

I don't understand why my backup isn't working and also why didn't CM7 worked even if I did everything like it was explained?

I still can't make it boot but I can get into cwm recovery.

What should I do? Also sorry if this was already asked and resolved, it is just that I couldn't find anything like this.
[Atrix 4G General] Atrix_Guy:
Nevermind, romracer CWM solved this.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishev:
Hi all,

For some reason the info under my Google Dashboard > Android device is nearly blank. Basically, when I click on the link 'Data stored for your xxxx Android device' all I see is the IMEI number and the last date that I activated/accessed my phone.

Here is some background.

I've only ever owed the single Nexus S, which has always been backed up with my Google account. Long ago, when I was just on stock (no root, nothing) my casual browsing showed what info my Google account had backed up regarding my Android settings etc (number of wifi spots, passwords etc). All was as per what might be expected.

Since rooting, I have flashed a number of different ROMs, including PixelROM, CyberGR, MIUI Catalyst (among others) and now my current constant is AOKP (b36). Goes without saying that I don't "dirty flash": always wipe as much possible before flashing new ROM/kernels etc. As far as I know the info about my Android phone has always been backed up into the Google account. The possible exception is MIUI which showed something weird instead of the info about the Google account I was backing up with. In checking whether the MIUI ROM was storing info in my Google account, I might have unchecked the backup option (which supposedly deletes all user info) and re-enabled it.

Since then, my Google dashboard shows only the IMEI number and when my phone was last accessed. A recent wipe showed me it *is* storing info about wifi passwords etc in my Google account -- basically when it signed into my account, it restored wifi settings etc. For some reason, a summary of this info just isn't appearing under Dashboard the way it should. My friend who is also running AOKP on a Nexus S showed me that a summary of his phone backup info does appear under Dashboard (where mine does not).

Any ideas/thoughts about what might be going on? Its not something I'm too worried about, just a little irritating that it doesn't show the info.

Thanks for any help in advance.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishev:
Never mind, the process of wiping completely, flashing a stock ROM and logging in, then reinstalling AOKP appears to have allowed Google to start logging me the way I like.. again.

Could mods delete this thread? Turned out to be pretty pointless.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topeagle:
Samsung Tab 2 10.1 w/ 4.0 ICS - cannot access adhoc networks

I just got my Tab 2 10.1 with 4.0 ICS. I rooted it and then tried putting the wpa_supplicant file mentioned in these forums in the system bin directory with permissions of 755 while in airplane mode. When I reboot, and try to turn on wi-fi, it just hangs with "Turning Wi-Fi on..". When I put the original wpa_supplicant file back and reboot, everything works again.

I notice that the patched wpa_supplicant file is only 295,964 bytes long whereas the original wpa_supplicant file is 569,140 bytes long so it would appear at least that in ICS there has been a lot of code added?

Is there a wpa_supplicant file that allows adhoc mode that works on the new Samsung Tab 2 10.1 with 4.0 ICS?

All of the hard plastic shells/covers I've seen seem to only go on the back of the KF.

I'm looking for a one that is similar to most graphing/scientific calculator covers - something that will protect the front of the device when the device is not in use, and stays on the back of the device when I'm using it.

Has anyone either seen a case explicitly designed for this use case (pun not intended) or tried to put a regular hard cover on the screen-side of the KF?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viperv990:
I can't tell for sure from the main picture whether the case is put on the front side. The product description only mentions protecting the back and the sides.

Still, at $5, it's worth a try. Thanks :)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
They make a clear one too. And considering the Kindle Fire's symmetrical design, anything that goes on the back will go on the front as well.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cryplock:
Nice

This is a really nice case. I just wish it was cheaper.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viperv990:
OP reporting back, got mine today.

The Good: It will stay on snugly when covering the display side.

The Bad: It's kind of a pain in the ass to remove. Definitely not anywhere near as convenient as a calculator cover. It tends to latch onto the side of the KF where the soft and shiny plastics meet.

Overall: Not bad at all for $5.

Also, I suspect it'll end up scratching up the shiny plastic in the long run due to lack of padding, but given the low cost of the KF, it's not a big deal.
