[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alissoncg:
Yes, I fixed this problem. In this particular ROM (Xperience), for some reason the cooker don't put or remove the Google MAps shared library and its permissions, so the fix is simply put back these files with some root file manager. I can make some detailed instructions to do this.

I want to post this fix in ROM's thread but I can't because the 10 post rule. So I put in here.

Cheers,

Hi guys i'm looking for the original samsung italian firmawre. Then i want to update it with kies...

With the rom that I tried to flash did not succeed.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] samisax:
Flash all the components of XXKPE (http://hotfile.com/dl/145780524/f7d1f45/I9003XXKPE.zip.html) then XIKP2 (http://hotfile.com/dl/146343129/49fafda/I9003XIKP2_I9003ITVKP4_ITV.zip.html) then update with KIES to see if there are any newer firmwares for Italy.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Schu-:
Main idea

Hi,

the main concept here is universal, there is no single-state localized firmware or version of android, all samsung software ( or most ? ) are multi-lang including of course italian, some custom rom like Poseidon can include software that not include italian, like swype ( developer of this rom has deleted other lang, whats the sense? make only english one of better universal keyboard? ) but this is single things,and not firmware releated.

Proceding like this:

- delete your data ( make backup of anything u want )

- install XXKPE ( follow guide )

- install XXKPQ ( follow guide )

- install custom rom ( follow releated guide )

- selecting in setup wizard italian

Simple:D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GTZ:
Hello

I have a Next2 Tablet that I am trying to upgrade.. Yes I've seen all the main threads labeled Next2 / Next3 / Prestigio .etc.

the next 2 seems to be vastly different from the next 3 yet people seem to think they are the same.

I am starting this thread trying to get some help.. Ive tried posting in the bigger threads but my questions / possible answers get lost and its too difficult to keep up.

so here is what I've done.

I have a Next 2

I tried using the bootloader and Rk Android 1.2 to load a new rom. the program reports success but the device will not boot.. just a black screen .

I've tried every rom I can find online for the next 2 with the same results unless the rom contains loader version 5.03 then I get a bright multi colored screen . but the device will still not boot. ive made sure they battery was charged .. ive spent 3 months reading and reading and googleing and reading.. but as I said any post I make in bigger threads just get lost is the mass number of replies about the other devices. I could really use some help / ideas from anyone that has flashed a next 2 before.

I just picked up the regular SG case for my S3 and I am not really impressed. My biggest gripe is that there is no protection for the camera. I was wondering if the SG MAX or otterbox case provided these.

Also, the SG caused my SD card to mount and un-mount very rapidly. Not sure what was happening there. The SG case is also causing my ArmorSuit skin to peel around the edges.

My experience with the S3 has been less than ideal.

boot into recovery, do a nandroid backup, then put the backup on ur pc/laptop. then if u dont like ics u can just boot into recovery do a full wipe, plug phone in usb (toggle usb) send the backup to ur sdcard then restore it :)

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
as above, you can now discover the beauty of a nandroid backup....:o

in recovery "backup and restore" --> "backup"

then full wipe and flash any rom you like, check individual hboot and/or sd-ext partition requirements

if you want to go back, full wipe again, "backup and restore" --> "restore"

(if you changed hboots in between switching roms, first flash the original hboot for which you made the backup)

nandroid backups save the exact state of your phone (apps, data, contacts, texts...everything), and are stored on your sd card/clockworkmod/backup folder, so you can move a few on PC for safe keeping as well

i'm a little surprised you don't know about them, they're essential for trying out mods/upgrading roms/switching roms, so we always have a safe point to restore to.

I've migrated my G2 over to the Desire-Z hBoot and upgraded the radio back to the latest .19

All was fine until I go to restore my nandroid backup and it skips the data/system partition so it won't restore.

I cannot install 4EXT because I Cannot find a recovery.img of it and it appears the ONLY way to get 4EXT back on my device is thru the market app.... which of course I cannot obtain without booting into the system for it.

Any tips?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Right now I'm backing up my card, then gona see if I can install something like CM7, install the app via the market, then try again that way. Though honestly they need a way to install the 4EXT recovery without having to go thru market.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
well you changed the system partitions when you flashed the dz hboot. a nandroid won't be able to retore for this reason. now you can use titanium to restore apps and there is some data that google will still restore for you (wifi passwords etc)

I posted a test a in the general (maybe q&a) thread a week or so ago on the best way to change hboots if that gives you an idea

oh and for the 4ext you can get that from the devs website, flashable through fastboot, if you go to the developer section here you can be linked to his site
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Well I installed CM7, and was able to do a 4EXT install via the app, then rebooted into recovery and went to restore it, which went fine.

I'm now booted up into the phone again. So the partition size changing didn't have an effect on the restore, CWM just didn't like the way 4EXT did the backup.

This time around I least made sure to do a 'download only' of the latest recovery to the SD card from the paid 4EXT app.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=27796375

for future reference

with this method you will just need to reformat recovery and you won't need to flash it, a bit less time consuming and of course radio stays intact as well
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Would have done that way except fastboot wouldn't work on mine always a "ERROR: Unable to create a plug-in (e00002be)", so did the PC10IMG.zip method, but I'll just have to remember to only have the hboot/etc stuff that's needed in the zip and not the 'full package' like from the virtuous guide.

Though next time (if I have to restore recovery itself) I'll just rename the zip the app downloaded to the SD card and use that. (there shouldn't be a 'next' time for hboot :P)

You can simply hold the power button for 5-8 seconds until the phone turn off. You can also do a battery pull, but only if you're not flashing anything.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cina:
Hi!

I've replaced my stock 8 GB SD Card to a 32 GB in my HD7 according to the thread in HD7 General forum.

I've used my phone for the last couple of month (HD7 Deepshining ROMs, mainly) without any issues but last week my card filled up (due to photoes, mail attachments, etc.) to 16 Gb (still got 14-16 Gb free space) and I've got random reboots. Some of the reboots ended with the message that my storage card got corrupted and it needs to be reformatted or replaced. Once I hit restart all went back to normal till the next random reboot and so on.

I've flashed Deepshining 7.7 and emptied my card so everything is normal again as I'm still under the 16 GB "barrier".

I assume that the phone is limited to the 16 GB max storage size and cannot address the card above that space. I wanted to ask if anyone using larger cards than 16 GB has filled up its card ever without any issues? Is this a limit designed in OS or my card is really damaged? I don't like the idea to disassemble my phone just check the card for errors.

Regards,

Cina

[HTC EVO 3D] KrewsialNL:
Ok, so you're rooted.

Are you S-On or S-off? A bit more information might be useful.

The reboots (if you're s-on) can be because you have to flash the boot.img from the installed ROM through fastboot.

I'd suggest any ICS ROM over GB, because of battery life, usability and stability :) (the Sense ones that is..)
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Assuming you are on Sprint, you can flash any CDMA rom.

Which roms did you try? Did you update your radios and firmware first?

[HTC EVO 3D] KrewsialNL:
How did you flash it?

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Seeing you are a CDMA user, I am not sure if all works the exact same way...I have a GSM version.

I think it should be all the same, no?

Note; Sitlet has a good point as well by the way. For ICS you might want to update your radio :)

Yeah I used the fast boot, and sitlet does have a point, and no im running stock firmware and radio...

Hi.

I've come to notice that every time an OTA update is available I'm the last one to get it. In December when Sense 3.0 update came out I only got it about 2 months after the official update announcement. And now it looks like it's happening again with the ICS update.

Anyhow I bought my phone second hand, and how can I now to which region it belongs? Is there a way to know how long do I have to wait for the update, or how top get it faster.?

Hmmm.... why does even HTC bother with this region nonsense.?

[HTC Incredible S] kouroshp:
So far it looks like only some European countries have received the update, and only for WWE phones, to find out if it's a WWE phone you can check with fastboot:

fastboot getvar cid

If it's HTC__001 you have a WWE phone. I live in the UK and haven't got the update yet, but I'm hoping to get it at least this week. If your phones not WWE, then it'll probably take even longer for your update to be released.
[HTC Incredible S] kidpaddle45:
Can you give me the steps to get in fast boot please?
[HTC Incredible S] compro01:
since all you're needing is the cid, just go grab CID getter off the store. It's free and will tell you your carrier ID and thus who you're beholden to for updates.

As kouroshp said, if the CID is HTC_001, you have a WWE phone (SIM-unlocked and purchased from HTC, rather than via a carrier) and get your updates straight from HTC and thus you're likely to get your updates soonest.

If it isn't, then you know who to bother about when you'll be getting the update.
[HTC Incredible S] kouroshp:
Either download the Android SDK or these files, either should give you fastboot.

Power off your phone, power it back on holding the power button and the volume-down button, select fastboot from the list (using the volume keys to navigate and the power to select), then connect your phone to your PC.

Then open command prompt, change to the directory containing fastboot, and enter what I said in my previous post. Select reboot afterwards.

So is that cid_001?

and does that mean my phone has no specific region?? O.O im lost help please?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
What this means is you have a XTC Clip'd IncS, but you have the North American version based on the BM___001 value.

The NA IncS is modelid PG3212000. The update is for the modelid PG3213000, so the official OTA would fail with device id error.

The good news is since you are S-OFF/carrier unlocked via XTC Clip, you can force the WWE version of 3.11.405.2 on your phone and then force the ICS OTA.
