bro, id make a nandroid (backup) of your system & then install anything youd like
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Yea, thats the first thing you always do. Make a backup and store it some place safe. THEN start experimenting lol. :cool:
[Motorola Droid X2] Skinzaholic:
Ok, got the backup made, flashed Eclipse 2.2.1. I like this much better than stock. Last night I was tinkering with it and installed Supercharger v6 script on it. I ran several different options and then after restarting, it was constantly on roaming for data. It was fine before, I flashed my backup back onto it and re did everything. It is back to normal. Does anyone know why it would be on roaming. Thanks for being patient with a new guy. People on here are a great help
[Motorola Droid X2] pmassey31545:
Not sure but you can always check your settings. I had a rom on one of mine a while back and it came as default to rain outside of my home area somehow. Also, try to update the PRL. Not sure how to do it with your carrier. Mine is *228(Alltel) .

Also, how did you do your back up? Im wanting a custom ROM on mine but I have no ABC if all foes bad and I'm not sure I could do a Nandroid.
[Motorola Droid X2] milestonex2user:
I'm a noob that just recently rooted my milestone x2 on 2.3.6 using alltel wireless. I can't figure out how to make a nandroid backup so I can install a custom ROM. If you could please help me I would really appreciate it. Thanks
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
You have to install BSR first. After that, power off your phone and plug it into your charger. It will take you to recovery so you can make a backup, install roms, etc...
[Motorola Droid X2] milestonex2user:
I can't find any bsr programs available for my device. If you can post a link that supports my device that would be great! Thanks again for responding 754boy

2.3.6 Rom?

Skinzaholic:

I have a MX2 which belonged to my brother (a technologically inept moron who took the 2.3.6 update). I was finally able to gain root yesterday, and since then I've been looking for a custom rom to get rid of motoblur. Everything I've read about eclipse says that it's for 2.3.4/2.3.5 only, and will not work for 2.3.6. When you flashed it, was it fully functional for you?
[Motorola Droid X2] aviwdoowks:
All great advice. Just remember you bsr is trash when you wipe system OR data!!

Or even the rom fails to boot. Almost anything can upset bsr on the quaint Dx2. Or the Mx2 same phone ReRecovery works on it also.

Use this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21116880&postcount=26
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Rerecovery has never worked for me.

Also all Roms work on 2.3.6. The down side is it is not downgradable. Check out the mx2 folder in my android crap folder. The link is in my signature. I kept the zips for several Roms in there. If the gapps aren't there Google for them.
[Motorola Droid X2] aviwdoowks:
Sorry to hear that. You need to "roll your own" see the latter portion of the 3rd post.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slonn:
MTP/Kies really suck. My main pc is running Linux so that's a no-go with MTP. I installed Kies on my work pc as it runs Win 7. All SGS 3 drivers are installed as well. For the first few days it was working but now the phone isn't recognised anymore. Either the phone does not show at all on the pc, or it shows but the internal and external SD cards are not showing.

Saw on Samsung's website that there's a Kies version for Mac available so I installed that on my wife's macbook pro. When plugging the phone in the "connecting" message keeps running but the phone never connects. I thought it was because I'm not using the original USB cable, but using that won't work either.

So looking forward to a custom rom that has USB mass storage included. Until then I'm using the WiFi File Transfer Pro and/or Samba Sharing apps.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG60:
You can also install Kies Air from the play store on your phone. You won't have to install anything on your PC.

Just make sure you are on the same network as your PC and run the app.

It will start a server and the URL will be displayed on your device.

Enter this URL in your browser on the PC and you are ready to go :)

All of them
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
Ive run every leak that's came out ucalc4 ucld2 and now ucle2 and I've had absolutely no problems. I've flashed cwm touch and rooted all 3. I've did factory data resets inside the UI and in cwm. I've wiped cache dalvick cache and battery stats several times on all 3 leaks. I've flashed different modems and kernels and yes I've even formatted the SD both inside the UI and in cwm and I've had no problems. And yes chainfires brickbug app says my phone is at risk for being bricked. But I had already done all this stuff mentioned before I found out there was even a problem. So if your worried about the brickbug then maybe you should just stay on stock gingerbread. If your scared to take a risk and push things to the very edge then maybe xda isn't for you... we are a group of devs and tech savy people who test and push things to the edge to learn new things and make android phones better. Anytime you flash a rom or recovery image or modem or even root a phone you run the risk of a brick. I know people who have bricked phones with Samsung kies doing a official update. So if bricking scares you that much then just stay stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mindmajick:
The brickbug happens on ics kernels.

So.. wiping all that stuff from cwm (which seems to be based on gb kernel) is fine.

Do not format from within ics rom!

You may not corrupt your emmc, but its not worth the risk.

If you want to do it in CWM or TWRP recovery:

1. Do a full wipe. (Darkside full wipe is the easiest otherwise, do a factory reset)

2. Install GB compatible radio from Mr. X's radio thread. (Even though, the new TLLE4 telus radio for example, will still work.)

You would have to unlock your bootloader. After doing this you could debrand your device: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1674202

Or you could flash a tweak removing/changing your boot anim. This would require a custom recovery.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlcsan:
Hi there, good night.

I'm having a problem with my Streak that I cannot seem to be able to fix.

I've followed the instructions in XDA wiki to flash the Streak with a stock ROM, downloaded FastBoot files and placed them all together in a folder, put my Streak into fastboot and flash the recovery image, all ok so far, then the screen goes blank and I press vol up and down keys to bring the menu where I can install the update.pkg, and here is where the problem comes up.

After I choose option 2 to "Software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD Card" the screen goes blank and nothing happens, screen's background is lit up but it doesn't get to the point with the blue font giving you the option to press the camera button to upgrade from the update.pkg.

I'm trying to use package 407 from the ROMs wiki here in XDA, I've formatted the SD card on FAT32 and placed in it just the 407 update package, and used the recovery image from 407 as well.

I've tried with a couple more like 405 and also 360, but nothing works, all do the same.

Is there anything I can do? is my Streak's internal disk dead? I can get into fastboot and run some diagnostics, but it seems the Streak cannot read from the SD Card? or cannot apply the recovery image properly? I've tried with 3 different working SD cards, but same result.

Any help will be great, I'm afraid my Streak is bricked... :(
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
hmm... that is weird because i never had that kind of problem... are you positively sure you are not missing any steps? usually things happen when you miss even 1 step...

when you choose to upgrade, you are upgrading from what? you should provide more details bout it so that people can know which step you might miss...

:)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
I'm assuming you have flashed the recovery again to make sure that went well, correct?

Just for the sake of trying something you could flash Streakmod and boot into it just to get something working. Also from Streakmod you can format the SD (the external one) and then place a fresh copy of your update.pkg on it by mounting the external SD also from Streakmod

If you can boot into Streakmod then go back and flash the factory recovery.img again

THIS IS NOW CONFIRMED WORKING ON THE CM9, CM10, and AOKP!!!

So I LOVE Sense 4.0. I love the way it looks, and it's a big, driving reason for my desire for an EVO 4G LTE. Or so I thought. I spent some time last night digging around to theme my phone, and for me, it breathed new life, visually, into my 2 year old EVO 4G. Of course, this doesn't give you the *features* of Sense 4.0, it's just a set of skins to achieve the look. They say beauty is only skin deep, and this is only a top layer, but ICS provides a wonderful, functional base. And yes, I'm using some paid apps in this, but at the fraction of a cost of an EVO 4G LTE, it's well worth it. And some stuff like WidgetLocker expand the functionality past normality. Other stuff, such as Apex, probably doesn't need to be Pro, but it's what I'm using.

This guide should work on any CM9 AND CM10 port, as well as AOKP, but YMMV.

Here's what I'm using:

Apex Launcher Pro with the CM10/AOKP Theme: Sense 4 from the Play Store - This WILL work with the CM9/CM10/AOKP!

Sense_4_clock_white_v3.apk from this post (it's a modded LP clock, so no fancy weather animations or anything)

Smart Keyboard Pro with this skin

WidgetLocker with this theme

Boot Animation: HTC One boot animation!

NEW

If anyone has found anything else, feel free to chime in. Stuff to look for is a way to make the status bar transparent, better clock/weather widget, other Sense 4.0 widgets, etc. I'm always on a quest to make this look better!

Apex Launcher lets you choose different styles of folders. Go into Apex Settings, then Folder Settings. Set the Folder Preview to "Grid" and Folder Background to "Square".
