[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Logie:
So, after a whole rig-ma-roll of trying to install a new ROM and not paying attention I have royally F'd my phone up.

I did however make a Nandroid backup before hand and copied that backup to my laptop, for safe keeping. This is the backup folder:

Now, when I messed up I reflashed back to stock firmware and just rooted it, now I have a kernel with CWM on it. I tried restoring my backup but got the following:

Restoring system...
About to erase /system/
data.img not found. Skipping restore of /data/.
dbdata.img not found. Skipping restore of /dbdata/.
.android_secure.img not found. Skipping restore of /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure.
Restoring cacge...
sd-ext.img not found. Skipping restore of /sd-ext/.

Restore complete!

Any help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedeegc:
Change ROm and Backup

As far as i know, is when you change a ROM, this is almost always with a new Kernel. When this happens you can not Restore the Nandroid backup.

So install your previous ROM, then you can restore the Backup.

Strange but true.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
You are trying to restore a Cm7/9 backup with different partitions to stock Sammy ROM, which is why it can't find the partitions, so above suggestion is correct
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nirose:
GB and ICS have different partitions

Afaik samsung GB stock rom and ICS have completely different partition configurations which makes a nandroid backup unusable.

You might be able to bring back your phone if you flash a ICS rom and try to restore the backup.

Good Luck

[HTC One V] the Doctor:
Before you start, you will need to set up your computer to properly recognize the phone. You probably did this when rooting originally, but just in case... Install SDK tools for Android, Java runtime, and HTC Sync.

About HTC Sync: The only reason you need HTC Sync installed is for the USB drivers that come with it. But the program itself has been known to cause conflicts. Make sure that HTC Sync is not running in the background by opening Task Manager in Windows and killing it if you find it lurking in there.

Here we go:

1. Download the correct RUU (ROM Update Utility) for your device from androidfiles.org. Make sure you download a Primo_C RUU for a CDMA device (no sim card) or a Primo_U RUU for a GSM device (uses a sim card)!! Also make sure you get the correct RUU for your carrier.

2. Charge the battery above 50% or for at least one hour. If the battery dies during the flashing process, you could hard brick the phone!

3. Run the RUU until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, find the temporary folder it created. (Open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar.) There will be two folders with long encrypted names. In one of them you will find ROM.zip. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img or recovery_signed.img. Put it in the location were you've installed Android SDK tools. This is the stock HTC Recovery and it is needed to run the RUU.

4. Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.

5. Open a command prompt in Windows and navigate to the folder where you installed Android SDK tools. Flash the stock recovery extracted in step 3 above using the following command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

or

fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img

6. Relock the bootloader using the following command:

fastboot oem lock

7. Re-run the RUU. It will restore the device to it's original condition, locked (though *** RELOCKED ***) and unrooted.

Once the install is done you'll have unlock the bootloader again using the token you already have from the first time, reflash CWM Recovery and re-root. All this will be 10x easier than the first time.

If you do re-root your phone, be 100% you backup the stock ROM in ClockworkMod Recovery before making changes!

Hi

Thanks for that perfect decsription exactly when I needed it :)

I just had a weired effect with my new windows 7 laptop that I want to share.

I installed the USB drivers and "fastboot devices" showed my HTC fine

but even flashing the stock recovery image was not working.

So it was stucking in the "Sending" part and never continued.

I then moved to my old laptop with Vista did exactly the same things

and there it worked without problems.

I disabled virus scanner, checked for htsync and used the original USB cable

without success.

But now I know why I normally never touch Windows and only

work on linux :D

Hi folks,

I've bought my One V in late may and I had 2.08 ROM.

Now I've tested some roms and I wanted to revert back to stock rom.

I've downloaded RUU_PRIMO_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_2.08.401.2_Radio_20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.18_M_release_263376_signed, and got recovery_signed and boot_signed images. Then I've went to fastboot, did flash recovery and boot partitions, and oem locked bootloader. Afterwards I booted my phone and entered PIN. Then I fired up RUU*.exe file, and I have 155 error. What the heck? Something I missed?

greetings!

Flashing RUU to revert to stock

- you must have the correct RUU for your device.

- if you are not sure, download CID Getter from Play Store and run it, it will show your CID.

- with your CID, you may be able to find a correct RUU for your device

then (even though some people may not agree with this, but this will bring no harm and it is noob-proof) do this:

1- flash a stock recovery.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase cache

2- flash a stock boot.img

fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase cache

3- re-lock bootloader

fastboot oem lock

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase cache

4- flash RUU

NOTE: There is no boot/reboot and enter pin in between.

I have a i9023 with totally stock unrooted Android 4.0.4.

I have encrypted the phone using the standard encryption option in security settings.

I find when starting up the the phone from switched off, I have to keep pressing the power button to wake it up every few seconds or else it wont boot. The screen just switches off and goes to sleep mid way through booting... Once it gets to the password screen to decrypt the phone, it's ok.

Anyone else seen this problem? It also does it on my wife's phone. Bit annoying to have to 'nurse' the phone during boot.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tesmond:
After upgrading to ICS my Note will not stay on when playing full screen flash on Dolphin HD and Opera. I can play the video and then after the the interaction timeout (default 30 seconds) the screen powers off.

In order to watch a full screen flash video it is necessary to keep touching the screen.

I changed the system inactivity time out to 10 minutes, but there is no option for never power off...

Does anyone know how I can fix this issue. Flash videos used to stay on in GB, not sure if the issue started because of the ICS update Flash update or something else?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbhoy:
I am also having exact same problem. I have tried a few different apps to try and combat it but apps like "screen on" etc just keep screen on ALL the time. The youtube app seems to work they way i want dolphin broswer to work.. IE on youtube the screen stays on until the video finishes and then screen will timeout at the set time once the video finishes.

BTW dolphin browser has a setting that means it will keep screen on all the time when its on. BUt again you will need to remember to exit dolpin to let the screentime out.

if it's an LG device than it needs to be read by LGNPST before it can be read by cdma workshop or qxpd or dfs or w/e.

To get LGNPST to recognize the phone you'll have to find the correct driver for it and install it in the model/mtn folder within the lgnpst folder. I have no idea what driver works for an lg220 though.

Hi! Every time i turn off my p6800, when turn on don't see "samsung glalaxy tab 7.7" and the boot animation but start the "factory mode". I i turn off it turn automatically on after 4-5 seconds and visualize the "factory mode".

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] bellerofonte6:
anyone have this problem or know its fix?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] vegaman:
I had this happen. I found that fully draining the battery fixed it, I haven't found what makes it happen in the first place though.

To completely drain the battery you'll have to turn it back on after it turns off from low power. I'd recommend doing the first big drain by flashing something in odin to get it booted (I just flashed recovery instead of the whole rom), then running it down till it turns off. Then power it back on, just the factory mode screen is okay now and wait till turns off again. This is to avoid having it on the factory mode screen for hours on end, which would probably cause burn-in.

Once it gives no response to pressing the power button, plug it in to charge, hopefully when it's charged a bit you can turn it on and it will be working again.

This problem made me really wish for a removable battery.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ecopy:
My son had this issue for some time ago. And draining battery didn't help indeed. But after about a week of this looping, it randomly became possible to boot through the loop holding the power button. And after a month or so, I can say that the device is almost self-cured the disease, and the "factory mode" is quite rare seen now=)
