[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mremale:
I was wondering if I can Nandroid my current ICS setup using AGAT's? Whenever i backup using the EL26 Kernel, I have to go back to 1.85 odin, and Flash an ICS Kernel. This also adds the yellow triangle (ugh). I use mobile odin to flash my ICS Kernels. But when i restore using th EL26 Method, It requires me PC odin'ing a ICS Kernel. I learned my lesson hard bricking messing around a few days ago. I seemed to have no Problems Flashing multiple ICS roms with AGAT's recovery using the regular method (which was not how i bricked), And i even restored flawlessly a backed up setup without having to use Odin to flash a ICS tar since it can't boot without one. Anyone have a more convenient way? Or can i just use AGAT's to backup and restore my ICS roms?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] okantomi:
Yes, the AGAT Recovery supports nandroid backup and restore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Done it a few times going back to his earlier repacks. With the additional safety he has built in with the help of Chirs41g and sfhub I think they are very safe.

I actually create a nandroid close to every day to copy to my PC. Keep trying a few other ROMs; wiping flashing checking them out etc., but come back to Agat's work (via nandoids) because, for me anyways, everything works. And works very well.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lucio25m:
Hello guys,

I have a problem over here. I want very badly to install the ISC ftf file that is posted here in one of the treads but the problem is that my phone is rooted and Im unable to upgrade using the flashtool methode.

Maybe I'm mistaken the button that has to be pressed or something. When I press vol up is gets in fastboot mode and vol down is flash mode but after pressing that last the phone boots and can not get into the flash mode anymore.

Can someone give a hint?

Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] umarian:
First copy in flastool/firmwares 4.0.4.firmware files.

Open flastool and push flash and choose flash and then choose flashmode.

Check wipe data,wipe cache,wipe apps logs and no final verification.

Turn off phone and push volum down and conect your phone in computer.When lihgt is green realease button

and wait still flash program is end

sorry for my bad english

My Sons HTC Sensation started playing up last night and stopped working!

Sometimes it actualy boots into android but then freezes and only a battery pull turns it off.

Somtimes it starts but the screen stays black but you can hear the welcome sound.

I played around with pressing buttons and sticking in the charger cable and got into the boot menu by pressing volume down and power.

But it is a "virgin" senation, completely stock without any cwm recovery and its never been flashed before. And naturally its s-on because its all completely stock.

Who can give me a tip on how to go about saving this phone? Is there any way to install cwm recovery on a s-on sensation and then flash rom?

Is there an PG86IMG.zip available to flash cwm recovery onto this s-on phone?
[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
this should belong in the Q&A, not Dev section...
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
that's debatable seeing as I need to install cwm and a rom...

I'm not a complete newbie, I have an 3VO 3D with s-off and a good rom but I have no knowledge of sensation hence my plea for help here...

Is there an PG86IMG.zip available to flash cwm recovery onto this s-on phone?
[HTC Sensation] grahamkdt:
Mmmm...

I assume you've tried a factory reset? It's a long time since mine was stock, but I'm sure you can factory reset by holding the volume down whilst powering up and then choose the option from there... I could be wrong??

I was in boot menu already but couldnt see a factory reset option...

I've seen that thread but I have no knowledge of Linux and I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a PG86IMG.zip that might install cwm onto s-on device.

There is an PG86IMG.zip for 3VO 3D for s-on and also cwm that works with s-on devices.

That is to s-off the device and then install cwm. I cant get into a working android os to be able to use the http://revolutionary.io/ website. And I was hoping to be able to flash a recovery onto this s-on
[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
still belongs in Q&A :p

click this link, shows how to do everything to the Sensation

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

step 2 should have the custom recovery you are looking for, but it looks as if you would need s-off first? not sure, never tried it that way lol. tried running a RUU?
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
That link is for s-off...

For 3VO we can flash recovery with s-on, why isnt the same available for sensation?
[HTC Sensation] anko184:
Go into bootloader and do a factory reset. You can't flash custom recovery on it and you can't s-off it if it doesn't boot.
[HTC Sensation] eterno13:
Here is the .img... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1542192. Go to last page there is a valid link
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
Someone who finally recognizes my problem, thanks for that. I can't s-off because I can't boot, that's why I was asking for a PG86IMG.zip to flash cwm on an s-on device...

I've been in the boot menu but didn't see any factory reset and that was only by chance. Now when I press volume down and power it stay black and just vibrates every 30 seconds or so...

EDIT: OK, I pulled the battery and tried again and now I'm in boot and lo and behold there is factory reset!!! SO I've pressed that and it rebooted and now its stuck on beatsaudio picture....hmmm 10 minutes later and I'm still on the beatsaudio logo....
[HTC Sensation] gallardo5:
Have you tried using RUU on this phone?
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
After nearly 25 minutes of the beatsaudio log I pulled the battery...

What is RUU...?

My son says the phone was doing an online update before it buggered up
[HTC Sensation] kotag82:
RUU=Rom Update Utility

You can't use PG86xxx on sensation (sensation HAS PG58XXX)
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
So isnt there a PG58XXX.zip file to flash from boot to revive the phone?
[HTC Sensation] g1user101:
I think your son tried flashing something and didn't tell you. :D
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
no he hasnt been trying to flash anything, he hasnt got a clue....hence me here trying to sort it out for him...kids (he's 20 years old!)...

the phone might have been updating itself on home wifi connection
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
+1 for RUU. It's worth a try.

You mentioned Beats Audio boot animation? Is it an XE? Are you from the US? EU? Somewhere else? What carrier is the Sensation on? It's important to know because different regions have different RUUs.
[HTC Sensation] kotag82:
more info needed to select correct ruu... cid, mid, hboot version... will you post these for us please
[HTC Sensation] Hitorijanae:
The only way to flash recovery with s-on is an unlocked bootloader.
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
It's a SensationXE with beats in EU using Telecom GSM carrier...

As for the other info, I cant get back into the Boot menu. I keep trying the volume and power buttons, its sort of hit and miss...
[HTC Sensation] cyanogendroid:
Sounds like maybe something besides the OS got corrupted. If just the OS was bad then you should still be able to boot into the bootloader, but that isn't the case. Ask him if he attempted to update the phone and perhaps when it flashed the new bootloader it got corrupted somehow...
[HTC Sensation] Name?:
Hmmm....

that sounds not good... Softwarebrick or perhaps Hardwarebrick???

You have only 2 choise:

First: Try again to boot in Bootloader (Volume down + Powerbutton)

Go to this Link

Use only STEP 4. WRITE SUPER CID

After that go to this Link and download "RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.105_R2_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M_release_253443_signed.exe"

Now Install the RUU. Your Sensation must be on Bootloader and connected to your PC

After automatic installation (PC) and reboot (Sensation) everything should be fine now

If not....

Second: Took you Sensation for Warranty to your carrier :eek:

Sorry for my bad english and Kind regards
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
looks like the factory reset really messed the phone, I can't get into boot anymore....so its probably option 2, warranty...

only problem is my son broke his digitizer and I fixed a new one for him 2 months ago, so we probably dont have any warranty anymore...but it's a software problem so maybe they'll do it...?
[HTC Sensation] jslim38:
Can you boot it into boot loader
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
no matter what I do it wont go into boot menu anymore...
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
battery remove

then reinsert

then vol down + power is not taking you to bootloader ?
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
not anymore, it was before I tried the factory reset...
[HTC Sensation] anko184:
Sorry to hear that mate, but you should have told us that your son tried to update it..

When you try to boot into bootloader what's happening? If you ever manage to get into bootloader you can run a stock RUU and flash the latest official rom for your phone.
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
it stays black and vibrates once...thats if it does anything at all...
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Leave the phone charging overnight.. And see

Otherwise as you are in pure stock warranty is the best choice

[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Take out the SD Card, then battery puul.

Re-insert the battery but not the SD Card & then try getting the phone to the bootloader.

If you can access the bootloader, the phone is, most likely, recoverable.
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
Thanks for the tips and a couple of PMs, I appreciate the help.

I haven't got back into boot menu yet, so I'm going to leave it on charge until tonight and I'll try boot menu again...
[HTC Sensation] iconias:
I'm in boot menu again, I kept pressing the volume and power and all of a sudden boot menu is back....

Where do I go from here?

I am an Android guy. But I bought iPad...

It is amazingly built. Everything is very beautiful. But much less convenient, I think.

For example, the AppStore itself is very non-intuitive and not easy to use.

I thought Google Play have to improve but AppStore have even longer way.

Some thoughts:

1. Why do I have to enter the password all the time?

2. Why search is complicated?

3. Why do I see only 6 apps in a page (I have a huge iPad screen :-) )

4. Why can't I install an app and keep searching.

5. Where is the "Back" button...

What do you think?
[General Topics] shockem:
That you should post in the general section. However I believe android and iOS are good in their own ways. Apple might have a certain clean look but somehow it takes longer to load while android sometimes may get cluttered. The back button is usually at the top left hand corner. Or the home button.

Hello. I installed today last version of paranoid android for Galaxy S2 and I can not connect my bluetooth headset to it. It doesn't see it. And it is an original Samsung one.

Am i the first to think about this concept ? or it is just impossible to make ?

if u didnt understand , i am talking about a widget that opens any app in itself .

u can place the widget on your homescreen and then just use the app on your home screen instead of opening it from the appdrawler ! (Plus it will be really cool)

I tryed stuff like APW that let you scroll your facebook on your homescreen but still it is nothing like having you app permantly open on your homecsreen ..

so , is it possible ? do we have somthing like that on android ? or am i just dreaming ?

There is a type of a calculator widget that is similar to what you want. But a app in a widget would require a emulator-if not a virtual machine and as such it would cause a lot of load on RAM and CPU .

I am using this ROM on my Galaxy Note. After downloading my normal apps I tried to move them to SD and I get an error message stating "unable to move app. Not enough storage space"

Because app storage is 2GB only it is reserved even you put a 3TB ssd on it, it will not grow. Clean up some apps or search for apps2sd a application that can move SOME apps to the sd.

What's a warranty, anyways?
