[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domonos:
Just answering myself for potential searchers:

No, it's not possible to do non inference GNote ROM backup. Every way taints your device but some of these traces can be later removed. Cleanest way to restore is really installing full (wipe) stock rom through PC odin, (but beware, reverting from stock ICS can be potentially dangerous.)

Why?

Backing up requires CWM kernel or root and one can't introduce either without a trace. The closest to nontrace way is to install some brick safe CWM equipped kernel using PC odin and do nandroind backup. In a you will trigger Samsung custom kernel binary counter (formally voids your warranty, yes, that's what you wanted to avoid), but apparently

that one can be reverted using Chainfire's triangle away utility. Welcome to the world of adventure!

Restore:

1. Install the very same kernel you used to make backup (avoid PC odin - your options are either CWM or mobile odin).

2. Reboot in recovery

3. Restore backup

4. Wipe cache

5. Install stock kernel

5. Reboot.

Never ever do any wipes / restores / formats / update.zip if your device is running stock ICS kernel!!

The safest way to avoid deadly mistakes and compatibility problems is always installing the same safe kernel (one that comes with CWM, most do) then reboot into recovery before doing any cwm stuff, install stuff, then (as last step) install kernel that works with rom on the device.

CM9 - CM10 - STOCK ICS - STOCK GB kernels are incompatible with each other and will cause your device to hang during bootup if mismatched with installed ROM.

I ultimately installed prerooted gb rom on the device and then loaded some ICS rom, loosing most personal data in the process (titanium backup does a lousy job restoring GB data on ICS). I avoided triangle and will use PC odin to restore it to some stock ICS if I need to return the device.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
backup efs, root current install and check toolbox thread from drbketan on how to. Keep it at multiple locations.

To go back, you need to have a tar file, in www.sammobile.com of current version rom, belonging to that csc. You can take a version higher, if it exists at all there. If not but Kies does have update, you might need to get the temp rom file. This is tricky.

Then ultra clean install, on safe kernel (flashed clean way with mobile odin or ktool), reboot recovery, wipe everything (factory, cache, dalvik), then in mounts (take out external sd) format all except efs. Again only on safe kernel.

Boot into download mode, flash throught pc odin the downloaded rom, with pitfile(original obtainable in ketans thread sticky section development, your rom might be there to)

Reboot, check csc,imei pcodes, if they are altered or not available, you need to root again,put them back (efs backup) and reflash rom.

This should be the cleanest way of going back to a near factory condition.

Some traces may remain, but not much. All data is lost btw.

all at own risk.

edit:see next comment for rom file. I think dr ketans got the right one.

[HTC EVO 3D] gokart2:
One thing I found to save power that I don't really see posted anywhere is by using this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=AutomateItPro.mainPackage&feature=more_from_developer#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEwMiwiQXV0b21hdGVJdFByby5tYWluUGFja2FnZSJd

I have it programed to turn off 3G/mobile data when it screen's off....unless I have a certain app running like say the browser. It will then keep data connected until the browser is closed, then the screen turned off. I then have it turn 3G/mobile data on as soon as I screen on again, so it's ready to rock instantly. I personally noticed a huge difference in my battery drain when not using the phone.

The app is pretty cool, you can program a ton of things. I have gps auto turn on when I use G-Maps or GasBuddy, then it auto turns off when I close those apps. Saves time and juice imo. Just figured I'd throw this out there.
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
nice app. isn't there a setting within the OS to do this, though? pretty sure there is.

either way, agreed. data usage can/will cause battery drain.

the real perp is your display, however. adjust your brightness settings, you will see significant battery improvements.
[HTC EVO 3D] gokart2:
My display is set low, and all my other settings are set to be battery friendly. It's been awhile since I used the app. But after I had that setup, I noticed better life instantly. Went fishing today with the little guy, left the house with 100%. No phone usage for 2hrs, and it was still at 99%.
[HTC EVO 3D] Threevo:
Can't you do this without the app tho
[HTC EVO 3D] gokart2:
If there's a way to set the phone to turn the radio off when screen is off, I'm unaware of that. I tried turning it on and off manually, but it got to be a pain turning it on and off all the time. I would end up just leaving it on. Now I don't even have to think about it, and it gets done everytime.
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Sounds similar to Tasker, which is a little confusing to new users.

But as for your post, turning 3g off saves a TON of battery. I have to keep it on during the day to get emails for my job, but at night, I turn 3g off, and the phone will drop maybe 2% overnight with 3g off.
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
The CDMA version of the 3D has a setting in network that allows you to turn off your mobile network if the screen is off for 5+ minutes. The setting is "turn off always on mobile network". But the screens needs to be off 5 minutes before it will. This setting will not turn off wifi though.

Pix or it didn't happen. I have full bars with 4G and my battery drains a lot faster.

[HTC EVO 3D] deathspankd:
If you wanted to save battery life without downloading anything you could just use the HTC widgets for mobile network, 4g, WiFi, and GPS. This method allows me to switch the settings on and off on the fly. I've also found that if you disable all GPS options it won't be running in the background and for apps that require it. And if I'm in one spot for a while I just use WiFi.

has died, but otherwise the phone works (I think). I was running MIUI on it. I used Titanium Backup and the MIUI backup utility, but had not used them for a while, so my most recent setup was not saved. I can access the phone via USB/ADB. Is there any way to pull the currentconfiguration off the phone so that I can "clone" it to a "new" Incredible? If so, suggestions are gratefully accepted.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
The new phone is s-off right? What hboot version is it on? Flashing images remotley (from a pc) with fastboot requires either the .77 engineering hboot or one of the new ones unlocked. I would flash the .77 hboot then restore the images with fastboot then flash back to .92 hboot. You can get the hboots here http://dinc.does-it.net/Hboots/
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartman99:
OK, so I flashed the .77 hboot and now the phone is stuck at the htc incredible start up screen. Tried removing battery and rebooting, etc. No luck.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
If you got the img's to restore with the .77 eng, then you just need to flash back to the .92 hboot and it should boot.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartman99:
Unfortuately no. I am able to get into recovery and so did a restore.

Then I went back into recovery and delete the cache and Dalvik

Then flashed .77hboot again

Did a Fastboot flash of system, userdata, cache, recovery, but was unable to do "boot.img" FAILED (remote: image update error)

re-flashed back to .92 hboot

rebooted Incredible and frozen again at white HTC Incredible screen.

Any suggestions?

B
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Did you install the .77 hboot or the eng (engineering) .77? You need the eng one, that will allow the fastboot commands. Then flash back to .92 and it should boot right up.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartman99:
I used the ENG .77 (MD5 ends in D1) and then flashed to .92

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Thats strange. Well im not sure then what to do to get the img's on there. Im not sure why it errors when you flash the img's. I will think on it some more.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartman99:
It only errors when I try to flash the boot image. I was able to flash the recovery, userdata, and system fine.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Try erasing boot first " fastboot erase boot " and then try flashing the boot.img
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartman99:
Nope. Unfortunately it didn't work. I was able to erase the boot, but when I tried to flash the new boot.img, I still got the same error message. I tried a couple of different copies of the same file that I had stored in different places, but still the same error.

I also opened the MIUI ROM zip file (I am using MIUI) and tried to use the boot.img from there to flash. I was able to flash that boot.img, yet the Incredible still is frozen at the white "htc incredible" screen.

Ah well. Unfortunately, with the amount of time I have spent, I could have started from scratch with the base MIUI ROM and cusomized to where I wanted by now:crying:

The International version and the US version of the SGS3 are NOT the same and therefore any roms that you flash on your phone will cause it to BRICK.

Just a heads up.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] EclipzeRemix:
He was referring to flashing roms between us phone (sprint AT&T and tmobile) it should cause any type of brick, we just need to know the mounts and see if they are the same, if so then there really is no need to have 3 different forums.....heh
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ThC23:
In that case, Yes they should work. The SGS2 uses Skyrocket and Telus roms, but it would break rotation. Someone had to do a fix for it.

Guys please help me!

I am desperate. My Razr XT910 was working fine until last week.

Yesterday, I realised that when I plug it in my computer through the USB port, the Select Connection screen won't show up in the phone and the computer won't recognise it. It only charges the phone.

Then, I went to my dock, the standard Motorola one. It's not working. If I plug the charger there, though, it charges the phone. But my Razr won't enter into dock modes.

Then, the lapdock. I tried to connect it to my phone, but nothing happened.

My phone is 2.3.6 and it's not rooted. I don't know what caused this.

Motorola through a live chat told me to send it to the service provider in my country, which by the way, never help anyone.
