- backup

- advanced backup

- restore

- sdvanced restore

#with " backup" make backup for sll partitions

#with" advanced backup" can make backup just for the partition wich you need it

# with " restore" can restore all backup with all partition

Salut,

Vad ca esti din Bucuresti.

Te rog frumos sa-mi spui ce este cu "Wipe data factory reset". Am incercat ce mi-ai spus tu, mai putin "Wipe factory reset" pe care nu-l gasesc in system recovery. La mine in telefon este un Wipe simplu. Facory reset i-am dat de nu stiu cate ori si nu functioneaza (ma arunca in system recovery iar la repornire nu se schimba nimic). Sa inteleg ca dau wipe inainte de a face restaurarea? Bineinteles ca mi-a dat eroare la restore si ca ar trebui sa caut in fisierul log recovery (care nu stiu de unde sa-l iau) ca sa vad de unde este eroarea.Te rog frumos daca poti sa-mi spui ce sa fac.Telefonul functioneaza dar cu vechiul SO (fara nici o modificare).

Astept raspunsul tau. Multumesc anticipat.

Which OS do you use?

Try installing this driver: http://www.alcatelonetouch.com/global-en/images/contents/faq/usb_host_driver_2.0.6.8.rar

It it doesnt work, install http://www.alcatelonetouch.com/global-en/downloads/otu/one-touch-upgrade-s-2-7-5-setup.exe (dont install a new firmware) and try again to flash using the provided method.

Good Day,

I have a rooted OT918N previously but when I upgrade via latest alcatel OTU it was unrooted. My apologize because I'm unaware if it will reset to factory default after updating. Now my problem is I can no longer root my phone using a flash tool using the method stated above. However, I was able to rooted this phone with the same steps with no problem previously. Kindly see attached screen shot on error in phone's end.

OT-918S Vanilla Nandroid

Yeah, as the title suggests...If anyone could, I need a vanilla OT-918S(Fancy name for OT-918 MIX) nandroid backup. system, bootimg, data, and cache are the ones I need the most. I sent my phone in to be repaired, came back fine. I powered it on once yesterday. Decided to reboot it today and lo and behold...it went into a boot loop for some odd reason. Didn't even do much to it after I rerooted it. I tried the OTU...says it's at the up-to-date version. Never did that before. I tried the "ORIGINAL ROMS" thread's files...but it says I need the nandroid backup. Tried the one of Mr Exodia's...didn't work for me. I'd appreciate any help.

Also, I've successfully rooted this phone on Win8 x64 so the claims of not working on Win8 is a bunch of malarky.

1. I didn't state that it didn't work. I only stated that the drivers have no (official) windows 8 support. They might be unstable and produce crashes like the user before had.

2. You're hijacking my thread about ROOTING the OT-918D. Please make a new one.

As a reply on your topic: search on sourceforge for the source code of the Alcatel Android and recompile it. Then flash a fresh one to your phone.

ps:however,its based on official samsung rom,im still hoping someone could port it on CM9 based
[Galaxy S III General] lukyjay:
Why port to CM9 base? I actually tried to do this, I couldn't get past the boot screen. I followed a guide on how to port miuiv4.

I believe the problem lies with you needing an existing miuiv4 to port, and the only similar device is the S2, but that rom is 4.0.3, and CM9 is 4.0.4. At least that's why I think it wasn't working. Gave up pretty fast.

What does this mean exactly?

Although the official Nexus page says there's a speaker in the back, we clearly see a pair of drivers.

Drivers? No Speaker?
[Nexus 7 General] Slap-Yourself :):
I'm not sure. They're referring to the two black rectangular mesh/screen objects towards the bottom. I'm guessing they mean a type of electrostatic transducer?
[Nexus 7 General] xthaox:
Well that's it then, no more speculation regarding MHL.

No sight of any MHL chip/transmitter on the motherboard, and the demo unit on stage at Google I/O was indeed a custom one that either uses micro USB to VGA adapter or Nexus Q to mirror its screen.

Edit: Wait, but there is a micro USB to HDMI cable, I'm confused :confused:

Doesn't it require hardware support for MHL to work.
[Nexus 7 General] Big_Den:
Nice to know it includes DDR3 RAM, apparatly the same model found in the 'MacBook Pro with Retina Display'.

Also Page 1 - Step 2 states

Initially, the Nexus 7 was criticized for its lack of HDMI output. However, the included micro USB-to-HDMI cable solves that problem.

Including this picture

Time to celebrate?
[Nexus 7 General] ebwibble:
In step 2 of the teardown there is a picture of the cable and they state "Initially, the Nexus 7 was criticized for its lack of HDMI output. However, the included micro USB-to-HDMI cable solves that problem."

Will the retail ones be the same as their white backed Google I/O attendee version though...
[Nexus 7 General] SinisterModz:

[Nexus 7 General] phil-t:
Surely not.. but would be funny if true..
[Nexus 7 General] ebwibble:
Looks promising!
[Nexus 7 General] xthaox:
That's why I'm confused. How does it work without any MHL transmitter on board?

How come no other reviews mentioned the inclusion of this micro USB to HDMI cable, both the AnandTech and Engadget reviews say N7 do not support MHL. They surely must have been reviewing the same unit given out for I/O attendees. I hope ifixit test if the cable even work, was it a mistake that the cable is included in their box?
[Nexus 7 General] lawguy:
Yeah. Why is ifixit the only one who makes note of this. It doesn't make sense.
[Nexus 7 General] Big_Den:
Yeah it does look promising. Even if it doesnt include a cable in the box, I would hope you will be able to purchase it separately. It still quite funny we dont have any concrete information :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] e.mote:
That looks like the PC connection cable. Note the regular USB male connector, and what looks like micro-USB male connector on the other end, despite what the HDMI label says.

If this were an adapter, the HDMI connector would normally be female, to be used with regular HDMI male-male cable.
[Nexus 7 General] phil-t:
Whilst I think it is a mistake by iFixit, I am wondering about the technical side of things, does Tegra 3 not have any MHL stuff in it?
[Nexus 7 General] lawguy:
To me it looks like a microusb male connection on one end (to be plugged into the Nexus) and a full size HDMI male connection on the other end (to be plugged into a TV or receiver).
[Nexus 7 General] xthaox:
I thought with the dent on its side, it looks more like a micro-USB male connector, and on the other end with HDMI label, it also looks like a HDMI male connector, considering its relative size to the micro-USB end.
[Nexus 7 General] e.mote:
>To me it looks like a microusb male connection on one end (to be plugged into the Nexus) and a full size HDMI male connection on the other end

You're probably right. Anyway, below is the cable that normally comes with the I/O package. There is no other cable in the unboxing.

http://www.technobuffalo.com/compan...low-price/attachment/google-galaxy-7-charger/
[Nexus 7 General] P1n3apqlExpr3ss:
What's with the HDMI cable reference in there? Thought it didn't have MHL or anything

Plus the smaller connector with the wide RIM looks like one of the cables you'd plug into the Q

EDIT: I'm not really convinced that it is a HDMI male connector

Armchair quarterbacking time:

-Really, really nice construction. The PCB has ground planes on the outer layers and is sealed at the edges with vias. Power planes are islanded and stitched with caps or shunts as needed. The audio runs the edge of the board. Bonded LCD, heat spreaders throughout, magnesium frame holding it together. This is nothing like the mess of masking tape and PCBs that was the TF101.

-DDR3 chips are 2Gb x8 (i.e. 256MB x 4 chips) and so single rank on the Tegra3's 32-bit DRAM controller. More small DRAMs = more cheaper. Welcome to Kai.

-Talking about audio, the CODEC is Realtek. Likely not Cirrus or Wolfson quality, but probably not as bad as the disgrace to the TI/BB name that was the codec in the Nooks and Fire. Like I said, audio runs the board edge and so picks up less interference than less carefully routed signals. This, and bad PSU rejection, is why cheap PC mobo onboard audio is noisy.

-The placement of the dock springs and the two RC networks there lead me to believe that the dock takes in power and spits out analog stereo audio. I don't think there's any sense line, digital audio out, or MHL.

-Pretty sure there's no MHL anywhere at all. I don't think the Tegra3 has an integrated MHL PHY, and I don't see the telltale PHY chip.

-That's a lot of pins on the bottom panel connector cable. I'm sure that's where HDMI comes from.

-Note that the connector layout differs completely from the ME370T press shots. The fact that the microSD slot is on the bottom edge between the USB and HDMI on the 370T suggests that microSD is also present on that cable. Though some no-pop components in the power section might also mean that there's no microSD power supply. And there's nowhere in this chassis to fit the slot.

-The pads near the bottom of the board are likely JTAG. The no-pop camera connector still has solder stencil implying that the board design meant for factory assembly of a part there, even if it was excluded during production. The missing solder on those pins means that the header was likely soldered by hand for the Asus developers if/when they needed it.

TL;DR: No MHL, microSD, or HDMI. Designed to be cheap, but not cheaply designed.

BCM4330 I think.

I'm hoping it's hack-able enough to attach an FM Antenna, assuming there isn't already one (which I doubt).

Hmm, if it's a module, and the module supports "NH665 bgn+BT+FM", then I'd think (hope!) that there might be an FM antenna pin or two that might be accessible.

[Nexus 7 General] NamenIos:
There is a not populated 24 pin connector CON3 right next to the NXP 65N04 (at the square hole of the pcb). This really looks like the HDMI Port, there are a few differential pairs judging from the pcb layout. So all you should need is a pinout from the Nexus 7 that was used in the presentations and very few cheap parts.

edit: Just from the pictures I couldn't see any easy possibility to add a sd card. Still I dont know what J1 is, 12 lines avaivable rest looks like ground, maybe for testing and jtag.
