[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmertin:
When does Google announce it's Nexus devices? I'm wondering if I should get the Galaxy Nexus, or wait till their next release. I thought it was at the I/O conference, but that would mean that they wouldn't release a new phone for another year.

Any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapcow:
as a developer you are better sticking with a realistic target and not with the latest and greatest, also many of the latest tablets and phones are not so exciting and comes with old hardware.

Considering what is on the market i don't think that Google is in a hurry for new Nexus phones.

When backing-up BIG file size games like Max payne, Nova 3, Shadowgun,etc. in TB. will its backup also the same size as the game's data?

NO , it compress and makes the backup

how about in CWM? i mean the nandroid backup
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Note that external data stored on the SDcard (such as Maps, textures, ...) will not be included in the Titanium Backup. At least not by default.

CWM compresses all app/storage backups by default afaik.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vegeta1:
exactly , cwm > nandroid backup creates backup for ur entrire rom

like all ur customisations and stuff

with titanium app u can also do that , selecting the apps of your choice :)

there's another app in market named GO backup

u can backup ur app and data too what that
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
Please I need answers to this issue, not people blaming me for being such a noob. I reprogrammed a Verizon Droid Razr for my colleague here in Nigeria, we both work for a CDMA network. The phone was fine, voice, text and data working until yesterday he told me the phone lost network. I asked him what happened before then and he told me he did an update (the ICS update), so everything went back to Verizon defaults and I needed to reprogram again. I got to reprogram it today but there was no data so I figured I would go back to GB 6.12.181 which the phone was on before the update. I chose DroidRAZR Utility 1.6 which I have on my laptop to do the job. After this my woes began. The phone now stops at the Motorola logo and after that goes blank. I tried again but it was the same response, and I discovered that the recovery changed too, and where I should hit both volume buttons to get the option to wipe all I see is automatic update inside recovery. I tried to remove the sdcard, but I guess the update file he received is in the internal storage. How can I get the phone working again, whether on ICS or GB, whichever would work. Or do we have a total brick? Please I need urgent answers. Thank you all.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
Pls people, Help Me!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] lashton:
After Upgrading to ICS you CANNOT downgrade back to 2.3 again, part of ICS does NOT allow downgrading, if its CDMA and you can get to bootstrap you could flash the ROM again, use the sdcard in another device to copy the rom, but it MUST be ICS you CANNOT install GB anymore
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
Thanks for your reply lashton. Please can you point me to a guide on how I can restore the phone to ICS. It is stuck on Invalid Flash Mode now and the battery is low, but I want to make a factory cable to use tomorrow and see if I can get the phone working again. I just need to know this is possible to restore to ICS.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Chuckleb0ne:
What you have is soft brick. And yes you will be able to go back to ics but now gingerbread. Look online there are plenty of people that have soft bricked their phones thinking they could just go back to GB. Lol including me. Happy digging! =)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
Please dear sir Chuckleb0ne, kindly guide me on how to do this since you have experienced it before. I have only till tomorrow to get this working as the phone has my friend's official company line on it, he must be able to use it for calls tomorrow. Down on my knees, tears streaming down my eyes... pleading for help...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
OK. I managed to construct a factory cable and it supplied power to the phone, so far so good. I tried to use Droid Utility 1.7 to unbrick (option 2) but it didn't work, I mean the fastboot flash went through but I still cannot go further than the Invalid Flash Mode screen, no matter what. I can't even go into recovery. That's a major issue, I think. If I could get into recovery I could sideload the ICS zip I copied on the sdcard with the Utility tool. I next tried option 1, which is Prepare for sideloading ICS on any GB. It didn't work either. Please people, what next before I go crazy. We do not have Verizon here so their support is out of the question, or even returning the phone. I must fix this, with your help, because I have run out of ideas here. Help needed!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pacman377:
Try to boot through BP Tools. The phone must be unplugged. If you can reboot that way then just rewrite the boot .img, I want to say its option 9? Kinda sounds like what happened with my phone, but after I saw the dead android with the door open I believe I could still get into stock recovery and side load .211.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
:cool:Guys, I got it back on. I used DroidRazr Utility 1.6, 1.7 and this file - Blur_Version.6.12.181.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip, all three in combination. the blur file on my sdcard, fastboot restore to 181 with Utility 1.6, move into recovery, wipe data and cache, fastboot 211 boot.img from Utility 1.7, back to recovery, flash the blur file on sdcard... ladies and gentlemen, we have a working Droid RAZR on ICS 211. Happy mode activated...:cool:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] emsjo:
Nice job ezeuba! I'm trying to find a way to get my RAZR back to GB because I HATE ICS. I've been using it for 2 days and I want to smash my phone. I keep finding people saying that it is not possible, although I have found 1 or 2 references stating that it may be possible but is very risky. I am willing to take any risk at this point as my phone is pretty much useless to me now anyway and it is at very high risk of being utterly destroyed. It amazes me how fast you can go from love to hate with a device. This fiasco reminds me of the day I "upgraded" from Windows XP to Vista. At least Microsoft left me the option to go back...

Question: When you did "fastboot restore to 181 with Utility 1.6", were you back to a working GB 181? Were you forced to move "up" to ICS or was it your choice? Thanks in advance for any information!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Chuckleb0ne:
See! Once you do a little digging you come up with a solution. And now you probably feel incredible for doing it yourself.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
To answer your question first, no I didn't have a choice to stay on Gb or move up to ICS. I only did fastboot to 181 with Utility 1.6 in order for the phone to even boot up to recovery. Prior to that I only had "Invalid Flash Mode" error, no recovery, nothing. So, after fastbooting 181 I got to recovery, wiped data and cache, went back to Utility, 1.7 this time, and flashed boot.img for 211, then went back into recovery and sideloaded the downloaded 211 update file on my sdcard. After that could I get full boot to ICS on the phone. No need dreaming of reverting back to GB, it's not possible, at least for now with a locked bootloader.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ezeuba:
You are right. Nothing a bit of research would not solve, if you are really determined to get it to work. It was your assurance that it was certain to work that fired me up. I was afraid the phone was dead and about to be buried.

Thanks.:cowboy:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] emsjo:
Thanks ezeuba! Fortunately ICS is starting to grow on me. I was able to load the old Gmail app which was my main issue and find some other workarounds for various other issues.

hi friends,,i updated my neo v with official ICS 4.0.4 thru pc companion yesterday..no root,, no bootloader unlocked..but when phone was idle in the night,,approx for 8 hours,,battery drained for about 9%...so i want to ask can i flash night-elf kernel or suave kernel or any other kernel on my neo v to get good battery backup "after rooting with bootloader remaining locked" ?????

thanks:(:(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
bootloader locked=stock kernels

bootloader unlocked=custom kernels+stock kernels

If you did and update, meaning your old apps stayed after update, try repair option in pc companion, it will wipe your phone and install fresh firmware.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hunkyycbz:
thanks bro...yes i repaired also,,now its totally fresh...1 more thing bro if i root now bootloader remaining locked with this method :http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1678690

for this,,i have to flash with ics 4.0.3 -.562 kernel to root and then after rooting i have to flash 4.0.4-.431 kernel...i want to know will there be any problem afterwards ??? as u said bootloader locked=stock kernels...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
No problems after.

Yes I said that, and?:confused: You are only using stock kernels.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hunkyycbz:
ohk,,,thanks...means there is no solution for battery drain issue for locked bootloader,...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
I didn't have any battery drain on stock 4.0.4.

Maybe one of your apps is the reason?

Is it same for every night, or you noticed it only one night? WiFi, data on/off? Are you on 2g only? Can't remember where is that setting in stock Sony ICS, settings->networks..

Which fw you had before, 4.0.3? or some of GB fw's, if yes, then which version?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hunkyycbz:
yes data disabled...2g only..earlier was on gb..battery drains only 2% when idle for 8-9 hours...but its bad on ics

I'm looking for a white one. The pictures seem pretty haggard from the ones I found.

Thanks for posting. I may try it out. Quality and fitment good? It says original, true OEM?

Edit - I caved. You made me do it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ferris2375:
Perfect fit and finish. I compared it to my original and it looks identical, actually fits even snugger. My AT&T one had the slightest bit of movement, one of the tabs didn't lock as good as it should.

You will not be disappointed. I may actually order a white myself. I was honestly shocked by how fast this guy shipped it. It was like 4 days after I ordered from China.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Araltd:
No way these are genuine from china?

But cheap enough... don't have to worry about scratching :good:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eduardmc:
i'm going to order one. Just in case, i only had my phone for a few days and seen fine scratchs on mine.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ferris2375:
I compared and really see or feel no difference what so ever. I'm extremely picky with this stuff. Seller says they are original, they look and more importantly feel original and MOST importantly fit like the original. Every tab looks the same, paint and gloss finish looks identical.

So yeah...China or not these are legit. Even if they are a copy they are an EXACT copy. Not one aspect of these parts feels or looks fake. Am I making my point? :)

His feedback is further proof of his quality parts.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jye75:
Why wouldn't they be legit from China? The battery says "Cell made in Korea, Assembled in China" and the label beneath the battery says "Made in China"... Why wouldn't China have the spare OEM parts?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ruin700:
My question is concerning a physical EMMC chip failure. I have rooted my phone and eventually bricked it, I didn't want to go through the carrier because if I was the cause of my phone being bricked I didn't mind taking responsibility for it. I found out though that it was a physical EMMC chip failure. If its a hardware problem that was not my fault I wouldn't mind taking it to my carrier's store to get fixed. So can rooting your phone cause a EMMC chip to fail?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
Rooting by itself isn't enough to cause the brick. Flashing something through CWM that called an older script could cause it as it was causing issues in the emmc partition controlled by the emmc chip.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SouthPhilly:
How do you know it was a "physical" chip failure??? Have you already taken it to a service center???

It's not often in these forums that you see someone will to take responsibility when they dork there device... But I must say it is nice to see.

But like rwilco stated, simply rooting your phone doesn't cause the eMMC brick. The only real way is to flash or wipe the wrong way.

I don't think your eMMC chip has "physically", unless you've taken your device apart and checked it specifically.

I'm get the feeling the you just flash or wiped from an unsafe ICS kernel/recovery.

Sent From My Galaxy10.1 Class Starship....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
An emmc brick is not a physical failure.. it is though a bug in the firmware put in by the manufacturer that we can't patch. You can, if you don't want to goto the carrier, repartition the phone and not use the corrupted emmc area, assuming its not in the bootloader area.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cp320703:
haven't a few people got their borked emmc phones fixed directly through Samsung support as well? I know I saw a post somewhere around here... I think in the thread that led to our current emmc thread in general where at least one person had success sending it directly to Samsung for warrenty service

A lot of this depends on personal preference, which changes with the desire to get your flashing fix.:D For me, I'm liking the sense 4 ICS by Newt.

I see that you are s-off and running sebastian's kernel? If so, just flash Scotts CleanRom 4.5 that is about a stock as you can get. Also http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1703732 this appears to be pure stock, rooted ICS.

Can someone give me some background information on the rezound ICS situation. I thought ICS 4.0 was not yet released for the rezound. Where did we get the port from? Its amazing that the port is 100% stable with all aspects working.

I'm loving the rezound community thus far
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
ICS with Sense 4.0 is ported from the Incredible 4G. It doesn't appear HTC/Verizon plans to release ICS/Sense 4.0 for the Rezound, all of the leaks are based on Sense 3.6.

The Sense 4.0 ports are very stable, there's some very minor issues here and there but they can be used as a daily driver. I'd recommend One XXX or Nils's rom, both make solid offerings.
[HTC Rezound] SR3TLAW:
Did you mean to say that ICS is not releasing for rezound. When I picked up rezound a couple days ago he mentioned 4.0 was to be released this month. Although after a quick Google search there was talk about it being released late may early June.
[HTC Rezound] gr8nole:
What he means is, ICS will eventually be released officially for the Rezound, but it will be Sense 3.6, not Sense 4.0.
[HTC Rezound] SR3TLAW:
Thanks for the clarification. Have a couple more questions... What's the latest radio for rezound this is same as Noticed that *228 doesn't do anything anymore.
[HTC Rezound] gr8nole:
Latest radio version...1.22.10.0421r, 1.22.10.0424r. You can get these from either of the last 2 leaks.
[HTC Rezound] SR3TLAW:
Im on 0.95.00.1118r, 0.95.00.1223r

What's the feedback like with this upgrade? Is it worth it?

One last question regarding s off. Currently the only way to obtain s off is thru the wire trick - and with s off you will benifit with the ability to flash your own kernel.. please correct me if I'm wrong
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
I can't either. Nil's ICS 3.6 Sense works flawlessly. There is a mod that let's you make / theme it more blue or more red, if you want a different look.
