Yes, the utility will wipe out bootstrap. As well as your internal storage, so make a backup.

After fastbooting, some people have had to wipe data/cache to have a stable boot, but you can do this from within the utility.

Instead of reinstalling bootstrap / safestrap, wait until you've upgraded via OTA. The hijack will cause the update to fail.

Everything else seems correct and sufficiently thorough to ensure a clean upgrade to ICS since we won't have the luxury of fastboot if the patches are dirty bc of system mods.

Best to fastboot while on GB to be sure you're starting with a perfectly stock base.

Followed my own instructions to the letter and am on 181 rooted awaiting ICS with baited breath.

Thought i would ask tho, when restoring my TitaniumBackup I accidentally told it to restore the bootstrapper app. does this mean I gotta do this all over again?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] _base2:
Nah - just uninstall the bootstrap app. The app just being installed doesn't do anything. You have to "install bootstrap recovery", grant su permissions, THEN it'll modify your system. But the app just being installed does nothing. Shouldn't mess with your upgrade to ICS,

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rush381:
Hey all,

I currently have the white SGS2 which I completely love. I don't like using a case due to the size and so far other than one tiny scratch on the screen I've only ran into one problem. The chrome colored border on the front face of the phone is chipping in all four corners. Wondering if anyone knows and good ways to touch this up? It could be as simple as model paint or something, I don't know. Just wanted to ask any advice you guys would have for a problem like this, want to keep it looking sharp. Any opinions welcome, sorry for the odd question. Thanks!

What version do you flash.Your launcher is different from mine.Yours one seem like Touchwiz 4.The latest 1.3V that i flashed is Touchwiz 5.

Ps:This mod is smooth as CM9, but the problem is touchwiz 5. It need some time do load widget everytime and it donot have many customize like other launcher.That all,and one problem is exist in every rom in our phone(for me),that is with live wallpaper the launcher is a bit laggy..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Seijin:
Howdy,

Before I upgraded to CyanogenMod 9.0, I would get a Google Voice message notification for a text message. I'd go into the web version of Google Voice, answer the text and then after a bit, the notification would go away on my phone.

Now switched to CM9 and the notification doesn't go away unless I answer the text on my phone or clear it out on the phone.

I've tried GummyNex and CM9 and they both do it.

Has anyone else seen this? I've done the thing where I've uninstalled GV, did the *73, deleted all the Verizon VMs and the reinstalled GV but it still does it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Don't think its related to your ROM as I'm having the

exact same issue

on stock 4.0.4 and have always been on stock. Seems to have started a couple weeks ago....

Been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what's going on and was about to start a thread myself asking if anyone else had the issue. Thought I was just crazy at first, but I know for a fact this is not how the app acted before. I've tried changing all kinds of things for my browser use of voice.google.com, deleted/re-installed the app, and nothing works.

I'll be texting using just the browser for a bit and look at my phone and I'll have a notification for "25 Google Voice Messages" or whatever. They never clear. I notice that when opening the GV app to the thread I'm texting in, it hasn't synced in the background, and takes a few seconds for the messages I had sent to show up in the thread. It seems as though Google Voice isn't getting background sync anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Seijin:
Aww man :( So it was just highly coincidental that it happened around the same time I switched over to a different rom.

It's surprisingly frustrating for such a little thing. I just use it so much that it forces me to check the phone and clear it manually to make sure I don't *actually* have a new message when I'm using both my phone and the web app.

Argh.

Yeah - nothing I've found has fixed the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Yes I think it's actually a coincidence as I said I've been on stock and it all of a sudden stopped working as it was. This is just really weird because there's been no update to the app or anything.

It's extra frustrating because Google Voice is my primary #, so I'm doing about 99.9% of my texting with it, and really enjoy being able to use voice.google.com. Dealing with clearing GV notifications every time I pick my phone up is very lame.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbeez:
I don't believe I'm experiencing this, gv on GSM nexus, stock 4.0.4 rooted. Straight talk tmo mvno
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crachel:
I don't currently have this with my yakju 4.0.4 OTA stock ROM, but I have seen it before on this phone and every other phone I've owned across stock & custom ROMs. Fairly confident it's a problem with the app itself
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Seijin:
@crachel - are you on cdma or gsm?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
What could it be though? I've done everything short of a factory reset. Nothing about the app itself or the settings I used changed and it started happening out of nowhere.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crachel:
GSM

I don't know.. I agree though that the problem just comes and goes, which is odd. Just a couple weeks ago they weren't clearing for me, but right now it's working fine. I remember thinking that's it's ridiculous this happens on stock firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Even moreso ridiculous if this is a known issue and they haven't addressed it even with these several early 2012 updates to the GV app, which made it a lot better overall in UI and UX. I just don't see how it can come and go with no changes whatsoever to your settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xur17:
Mine definitely does the same thing... I thought it used to clear them for me, but I wasn't sure, and figured I was just thinking of how Google Talk clears the messages.

Not a huge deal to me, but it would definitely be nice if they would fix this. Our best bet is to make a post on the help forums with a bunch of posts in it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If I get some time I'll put up a bug report on Google Groups/Google Code.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xur17:
Thanks for the link!

If anyone has a chance, they should make a post in the Google Voice forums here (I'll try to do it later when I have a chance if no-one else gets to it): http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!categories/voice/using-google-voice-on-a-mobile-device. I heard that Google Engineers do monitor / read these sometimes, so if we all post in a thread there is a chance it will get read / fixed.

I really wish there was a better way to get stuff like this fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LeoBloom.:
Bit late to the party. Just wanted to chime in that in my experience I don't think I've ever seen the GV notification clear itself after checking the web interface on my computer.

I've been using android for a year now and have gone through 3 phones and the asus transformer tablet. My current phone is running a CM9 based rom, but still it doesn't clear these notifications.

Man, I'd love it if it did.

Note: I think that if you use the GV widget, you will see that the notification on the widget DOES clear after checking the web interface (or at least it did in GB because I just tested this on my current phone and widget doesn't clear it either). I suppose this means that GV is pushing the "read" status of an sms to our phones. The notification on the notification bar, however, still persists despite this.

EDIT: Given my last test on my current phone, it looks like the widget doesn't clear the notification like it used to on GB. It looks like it is, in fact, a syncing issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I can confirm that it actually

did

used to clear when viewed on another device, and this is the

intended

action. It should work exactly like an IMAP e-mail account (say, the GMail app). If you view a message on the device or in a web browser, it is cleared as read on the other. Google Voice used to do the same, and stopped doing so randomly. It's completely a backend problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xdp:
Really wish they would fix this. Still happening on JB. Very annoying for those of us who text from the web all day.

[Android Apps and Games] Shan986:
Today I am launching TextHer app which enables users of android phone to communicate privately and securely between them.

TextHer

It is a peer to peer (serverless) messaging app where the messages are directly sent from one phone to another without being routed through or stored on any servers.Messages will be not be routed through carrier's server instead it will be directly sent from one phone to another using data connection.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spacenext.texther

Sending a message:

To send a message to another phone just type the primary gmail address of the phone,type your message and send it.

For example my phone's primary account is ramanean@gmail.com,Just type the mail address or just the account name(ramanean) and send a message

Features

1.No Registration is required and Free unlimited messages.

2.Secure/Instant communication between any two individuals

3.Instant Delivery of messages (unless the other phone doesn't have a working data connection)

4.Messages are not stored on any servers.they are stored only on your phones.

5."Background Send" option which allows a delivery of messages incase of a failure.

6.Messages are encrypted by AES standards

This app would make it difficult for law enforcement and spy agencies to track what is being communicated between two phones as the messages sent are encrypted by a standard AES algorithm and the messages are not stored on any server.It allows secure communication between two phones without the fear of being tracked for their messages.

Serverless:

It's not entirely serverless as we store the ips on our server and give it to the clients which enables phones to connect with each other. And I have plans to come out with another version which would never involve a server.

I hope I would get a constructive review on your site.Please let me know whether you need any extra information

[Android Apps and Games] Shan986:
a) This app won't be available in certain countries in the Middle East and south East Asia!

b) There is too much of snooping around and that's why I have come out with this app

c) On other hand it would help organizations like Occupy Wall Street and people in their protests.It would great help in free speech

MY answer to others who question my app!

Why do you need a intermediate person to message/communicate your loved one? Whether we use a third person to communicate with our loved ones inside our house? The answer is No.. and that is the reason I have come out with this app.
[Android Apps and Games] deus_:
Okay here's what I discovered after a bit of goofing around:

1) You use app for a few minutes and it is impossible to get out. Pressing back keeps bringing you back to previous screen. In a loop.

2) I tried messaging myself. Didn't work.

3) I tried messaging on ramaean. App not installed :)

4) When I tried messaging to shangce, it force-closed on me.

5) You need to have a more consistent UI. You have used all the colors in rainbow :)
[Android Apps and Games] IconRunner:
I don't want to come off as a ****, but if someone wanted to use an app for truly private communication I think they should be asking the following questions:

Could you describe in detail what happens to the text from the time you press Send to when the recipient's phone beeps?

How do we know your servers aren't logging our messages?

Why should we use your app instead of an encryption app?

Please don't take this as an insult to your app or hard work, but they are legitimate concerns for any security related app. I would be much more comfortable if there was an encryption feature.
[Android Apps and Games] Shan986:
You got some of the points wrong

a)My mail ID is ramanean@gmail.com and not "ramnean" (use ramanean)

b)You can click on the home button in the bottom help menu to come out

c)I won't reveal from my that mail address "shangce"

d)I don't know which provider you are using.l

This app will not work if the phone has internal IP's!!

UI :

I need to work a big on UI :( As I always choose colors wrong
[Android Apps and Games] deus_:
a) I used the correct id. there was a typo in above message. Anyway, this isn't a deal-breaker.

b) I should still be able to come out of an app by pressing back button. Don't you think?

c) Didn't get you.

d) It works after disabling WiFi. My bad.

e) You can try a two-colour theme.

Is there some reasoning for barring people based on location? Am pretty sure that:

a) A terrorist is neither in our midst nor that one would be wandering around in the xda forums looking for something they could use.

b) If they are aware of a software such as this they could always get one of their partners in crime to download it from an off site location and mail it to them.

I was doing the s-off on a new phone (that had CleanROM 4.5 installed) & now its stuck at that green bear screen.

I can get to the hboot screen or that screen.
[HTC Rezound] ruvort:
You need to flash a stock rom. That is how I fixed that problem. Hope it helps :-)

[HTC Rezound] brock350:
Or your boot IMG in other words flash the kernel file that came with your clean Rom in hboot
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Thankyou for the response, do I need to relock it to do that??
[HTC Rezound] ruvort:
Nope. The best bet would be a rooted stock rom. I'm not sure on the link right now.

MyColorScreen
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
I thought you couldn't go back from an ICS ROM directly to a GB ROM??
[HTC Rezound] ruvort:
Well that is true if you upgraded the radios and hboot and such to ics. There is undoubtedly a rooted stock or just plain ics stock you can flash. If you are still on GB firmware but an ICS rom you can flash a GB rom no problem.

MyColorScreen
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Really appreciate the help.

It is on GB firmware (I didn't do it, I bought it that way).

I can get to the hboot screen, but I can't get to the recovery screen (nothing happens when I select recovery). I do have a GB RUU somewhere that is an exe file, I guess the easiest thing to do is run that at the hboot screen??
[HTC Rezound] ruvort:
You can run that or to get your phone booting again with your current rom you can look in the Juopuntubear folder and run the fastboot commands to restore the imgs.

Fastboot flash boot *boot.img location and name*

Fastboot flash recovery *recovery.img location and name*

MyColorScreen
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Ok, I tried running the ruu.exe file that has always worked fine in the past and it gave me an error.

I then DL'ed the newer ruu posted and flashed it twice from my card. When I got all done, it still hung up on that darn bear........
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
You should be able to just flash the kernel like the guy above said if the s off process didn't work. That's the first thing I would try.

Was the newer RUU the stock Verizon non rooted RUU, and not a pre rooted stock type rom only? The rom only would explain why you're getting the jpbear screen on your phone still.
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Yea flashing the right kernel worked, but this same phone has now gotten stuck at same screen 3 straight times.

I guess this particular phone just doesn't want to be s-off........
