Thanbks - it was doing precisely this that the error message occurred.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vegeta1:
i transfer and never have such issue

hopefully ur talkin bout ur nandroid backup
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lejars1:
Well to give you the whole story, I have a copy of the rooted stock ROM on my int sdcard.

I wanted to transfer it to the external card as there was more space.

Traferring directly bewteen the two seemed to tak a very long time so I started again tranferring the ROM to the external card attached to the PC.

Much faster but then it stopped and said that the file was too large.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vegeta1:
for a change try some other system if u can
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Is your external SD FAT32 formatted? If so, that's a filesystem limitation since it can only handle (2^32)-1 bytes (=4GB) per file.

At the time of FAT32's release, that was the capacity of a whole hard disk.

ExFat (Fat64) and NTFS do not have this issue.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lejars1:
I thought that the s3 couldn't read NTFS.

I'll check the format - yes it's FAT32.

How do I format it to ExFat?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lejars1:
Don't worry, I found it.

[Nexus Q General] fiveipads:
For all you Shotputterz heres the factory image we've been waiting for

assuming you have debug mode enabled, ADB and fastboot working properly

EDIT 1: REUP'D CWM mod

EDIT 2: reordered process to make more sense

Method:

1. Download the Beta CWM mod from rootzwikis credit to birdman EDIT:REUP'ED http://d-h.st/Fdp

2. Using fastboot, DO NOT FLASH Clockwork mod just use the syntax

"fastboot boot 'File path of clockwork mod image'

Note* this will boot directly into the recovery without permanently writing to the recovery and boot partition on the eMMC on the Nexus Qs board

3. Download the posted CWM factory backup posted

4. make the directory on the device and adb push the backup folder (unzipped) to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup while in CWM recovery

*The device should show up in "adb devices" while in the CWM recovery*

5. *TEXT WILL BE REALLY SMALL! Now navigate with the Scroll wheel to backups and restore and tap the mute button to select.

*IF SOMETHING IS SELECTED IN ERROR THERE IS NO BACK BUTTON JUST REBOOT AND REDO FASTBOOT BOOT*

6. Now select restore and select the image folder

7.blah blah CWM Freaking MAGIC

8. Your Q is back to factory state

If someone wants to PM me or show me how to package this in a nicer CWM zip to install with a script let me know

http://d-h.st/yeo

*Note* I am NOT responsible if you brick your already bricked Nexus Q*
[Nexus Q General] ThisIsDave:
You sir get a beer, since my 2nd (dev) Q won't arrive until later this week, and mine was a shot put until this post.

If you happen to be in NYC before I move to SF, you get three beers.

Hoppy ones.
[Nexus Q General] fiveipads:
I am moving to SF :)

Did the reflash go smoothly?
[Nexus Q General] ThisIsDave:
No unfortunately it didn't--I blew away all partitions other than bootloader so I can't, to my knowledge at least, push the zip since I can't adb.

I've got factory recovery, boot, system imgs but the system img won't push out because of fastboot's apparent inability to handle files that large (1GB exactly I believe).

...I guess I have to patiently await my second Q but the point of having two was to *use* one and have one for dev... rather than have one as a heavy reminder of my overzealous endeavors...

Hopefully I can give it more time while on this SF trip...
[Nexus Q General] fiveipads:
Boot into the cwm bootloader with fastboot without flashing. Adb will be enabled and you can push files the files while your in adb recovery. Try that and flash it.
[Nexus Q General] Smokuevo:
Does our Q's have internal memory.. if not wouldn't it be possible to run back up of off otg memory stick if recovery would support it
[Nexus Q General] camondraconis:
The problem I'm having is that ADB is not responding from CWM... at least not on a Windows machine. The drivers are fine as ADB was working in normal mode before my issue sprung up.

EDIT: As suspected Virtual Ubuntu on a Win host didn't see the device, Physical Ubuntu had no issue. NQ reloaded.
[Nexus Q General] THE_KINGDOM:
Can we do this by say pushing the file to the download folder and then installing from zip?

And i know slightly off topic but once we've installed some apks for example, what's currently the best interface to use to navigate through the apps and use them?
[Nexus Q General] mrjaymillz:
How do I make a directory on Nexus Q

In step 2 you say make a directory for the file that is posted below. How do I create a directory on the Nexus Q? Currently my Q is stuck in a bootloop after trying to launch CWM from a Galaxy Nexus. If you could post command codes that would be awesome!

I figured it out. You can just follow step #4 and in CWM you can push the CWM Factory img to the /sdcard/Download/ folder and use CWM to unzip and launch.
[Nexus Q General] discoltk:
Could someone please provide me the beta cwm image for Nexus Q? The links are all circular and point to

[Nexus Q General] discoltk:
The edit didn't prompt an email to me even though I'm following the thread, so those of you looking for the clockworkmod beta image please take note that OP was kind enough to provide a working link to the image.

Thanks fiveipads!

[Nexus Q General] THE_KINGDOM:
ok this is really bothering me, i've restored with this factory image several times, and I have to do it again right now and I cannot seem to push this file folder to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup

what am i doing wrong..

it should be:

adb push NexusQFactoryImage /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/ (assuming the file is in same folder as adb which it is)

that's it right.... the extracted folder contents in a folder.. not the zip.. so i dont understand why this is not working. Everytime I go to CWM and try to restore it tells me nothing to restore...

what really bothers me is that i've done this a hundred times, and never had this problem..
[Nexus Q General] THE_KINGDOM:
BUMP.. stuck in CWM unable to get a restorable file.. no idea why...
[Nexus Q General] Lokifish Marz:
Download OneClickRestore (it's the factory image straight from Google with the needed fastboot files included)

Extract zip to OneClickRestore

Unplug Nexus Q

Plug in Nexus Q and place hand on it til the leds turn red then remove hand

Launch "flash-all.bat" from the OneClickRestore folder

You may need to do a full reset, it's hit or miss

Another option is push & flash (Nexus Q)uantum Singularity Project RTS ROM from CWM and again may need to hard reset.

RTS is

Based on stock 4.0.4 build IAN67K

Deodexed

Zip aligned

init.d Support

bash support

Busybox updated

Prerooted

Superuser

Updated Keymap (Home=Home, End=Back, Delete=Menu, Insert=Visualizer)
[Nexus Q General] THE_KINGDOM:
The problem with putting Quantum singularity project on is that I can't turn on ADB debug, because i use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard, don't have an OTG mouse/keyboard, so somehow I need to be able to connect with adb to setup a bluetooth connected mouse/keyboard

I was thinking to install stock image, and then without wiping install Quantum SIngularity Project over top to preserve the settings for usb debug, on.

what's confusing to me is that i've restored the stock image many times before, and never had a problem.. that's why im wondering what the problem is.. if im typing something wrong.

I used the OneClickRestore as you said, and im just booting it up now

EDIT: didn't get past boot logo, i'll try again

So just to confirm this OneClickRestore is loading the stock nexus Q img right? I've never used it before I usually manually do it

EDIT: still stuck at the nexus q logo before home screen

do you see any error in my commands of trying to push the stock img folder (original post) to "/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup" ? I've done it many times before never had a problem
[Nexus Q General] Lokifish Marz:
On RTS and OneClickRestore, enable debug via the NexusQ app on your phone. When released, v1.0.2 will support this as well as it will have "Dual Mode" enabled. How are you setting up you BT? I'm still working on proper BT support.
[Nexus Q General] THE_KINGDOM:
Quantum Singularity Project ROM v1.0.2 out, running good.

NOTE: it is not possible to flash the Quantum singularity project ROM over the stock ROM, it just won't boot, so you have to wipe before hand.

CWM no words after booting

i fastboot the img and it reboots to a black screen with the blue ligts running around it....in ADB devices it sees the q in recovery.....but i have no words anywhere to flash the ROM. what am i missing??!! HELP!!
[Nexus Q General] charlie.sears:
I have the same issue, black screen, nothing showing up. Something is happening, by scrolling and clicking randomly I was able to boot to the stock Q OS.
[Nexus Q General] charlie.sears:
Oddly it worked fine on my TV. On my PC monitor I saw nothing, TV = CWM GUI
[Nexus Q General] animal24:
This happened with me too. I fixed it useing fastboot boot clockwork.img instead of fastboot reboot recovery. Seems this happens with some devices. instead of flashing the image, did you boot the image?

Changelog:

Updated SGX PVR drivers to 1.8 (ICS, full hardware acceleration).
Lot of updates, tweaks and fixes...

I take it this is for the milestone only judging by the a853 but wasn't sure since the end of the filename says sholes? Amazing work regardless ;)

Milestone (A853) only.

Yes, it´s for the Milestone (A853) only.

The filename is correct, "umts_sholes" is for the Milestone (A853), "sholes" for the Droid (A855).

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] MotoMileCm7:
What the different between. Themeless?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] soffner:
More free RAM, less force closes.

Nothemes branch don't have the theme engine (System settings/Interface/Themes), this seems to free a good amount of RAM (I get about 40 MB of free RAM most of the time).

With more free RAM the phone is quite snappy and don't force close too much on RAM demanding apps and games.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] MotoMileCm7:
Ok thanks. But with theme less edition how many free ram you have when you used setting?

I have 0 RAM in if I used setting
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] soffner:
Between 20 - 30 MB free, sometimes more (with Dropbox and WhatsApp Messenger running in background).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] MotoMileCm7:

i am a South Korean, so i can't say English very well...

but i want to tell you something

when my milestone was in cm7, there was an option that can activate or deactivate the linked 'headset' state and the sound that confirms volume up and down.(am i right in this sentence?..)

and i want these options on cm9,so would you do me a favor for me?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cgardnervt:
Right now I am very unhappy with the case and I am most likely going to be returning it to best buy.

1) The rubber cut outs seem to be a little off.

2) Getting it inside of the plastic bracket is just not happening. It just seems to tight of a fit. Any advice here?

3) I'm just frustrated with it over all. Bad design? Morse than likely for me anyways. But I am sure for others it works great. The last commuter case I had has a flat lip to so that you can work the case on. It doesn't seem to be the same for the S3. Getting the buttons in with all of the flaps looks to be more work than its worth.

Oh well maybe the Defender ill be better.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sambo234:
mine fits perfectly... it's supposed to be a snug fit. Just put the case in one side at a time starting with the volume rocker and then push the power button side in.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] DarkMage619:
Otterbox has changed the silicone portion of the case so it is more durable but also more stiff and rigid. I was able to get my case on without too much trouble but it wasn't as easy as other cases. The thickness of the silicone also makes button presses harder. This case won't be for everyone but I like it enough.

The Dark One
[Galaxy S III Accessories] firetruck41:
Check out the recent Trident Kraken thread. There is a video comparison with Otterbox Defender, that shows how the case installs/removes, I prefer the way the Kraken works, so I ordered it for $29.95, link in the other thread. (Make sure you watch the right video, the one of the iPhone Kraken, is an old trident design, not the current set up)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cgardnervt:
Can you link me the video please?!

And yes the case is not for every one. This morning I put a ZAGG shield on until the Defender comes out.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mastarifla:
Also look at the Incipio case, it feels fantastic on the phone and the buttons are responsive to a normal button press, I have no issues turning on the phone with only one hand and I'm a fairly weak guy :P
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Lakeshow423:
Only gripe with the Incipio case is that the rubber part is a lint magnet! Ill buy that Otterbox off you lol!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] elvenlemming:
I didn't like it very much when I first got mine, but it's grown on me. It's hard to get in, but I think that's by design. The biggest issue I have with it is that the power button doesn't have very much feedback to know if I've actually pressed it. However, after a few days I've gotten used to it. I like the feel of the phone naked, but I like the protection of the case too much.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] neubauej:
I tried just about every case locally available, and I must say this one beats them all hands down.

The only thing I don't like is the stiff rubber for the power button, but I'm sure it will soften with use.

Classy looking too.

:-)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Sunsparc:
I'm finding it a pain in the ass also. I thought my Epic Touch Trident Aegis was a pain to get on and off but this is ridiculous. Took me almost 15 minutes to get the thing on and 5 minutes to get off the first time. I understand it's probably because of the design, but still.

Also, I'm used to the clicky power button feeling of the Trident, which I don't get with the Otterbox. I might end up returning it and getting the Aegis when it pops up on Amazon in white. Or I may go with the lime green. :D
[Galaxy S III Accessories] k317:
I looked at the commuter at best buy and thought it really ruined the appearance of the phone.Decided to go with the PT case with holster(Seido) and found it to be much nicer and offered a decent amount of protection
[Galaxy S III Accessories] navymac62:
It stiff I agree but maybe you guys need to get some man hands. :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cgardnervt:
So funny story of the day....

After i returned my case to best Buy I check my email to find that Otterbox sent me a case anyways with an email from a manager. Apologizing to me and told me the case is on them! Very nice of them IMO. This is why I love Otterbox. Best CS hands down!

So maybe I will give the case one more go. I just hope it doesn't kill the corners of my Zagg IS. I have had it on now for 2 days! My case should be here tomorrow or Thursday. Again when they asked if I would like another I told em no that I was returning it and that I would be getting the Defender if it ever came out. I never even asked to speak to a manager. Some things just wow me. To bad other companies are not like OB.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] kirbo20:
I'd start by uninstalling Lookout Security. From my experience Antivirus programs and Task Killers cause phones to do goofy things.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] alacrify:
That will probably do it, but if not, you can either A) uninstall anything you installed, or B) (recommended) do a factory reset, start from scratch, and don't install ANYTHING until you see if the phone is ok. Assuming it is, then you can add apps back a few at a time until you find the culprit. Or with a stock experience if it keeps happening, take it back for a new one :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Thomas_Y:
I would do a backup and the do a factory reset.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
Would doing a factory reset break root? Since I have already done a nandroid, would I be able to restore apps and app data only after the factory reset?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] benzso63:
Finally someone got the same issues as mine. I got mine fixed. The main problem is the google account. No matter how many times you do factory reset, error will show again and again.

Try this and see if this work.

Goto settings --> Accounts and Sync.

go through each email account, make sure "Sync Internet" "Sync google play books" "Sync google play movies" are UNCHECK!

restart your phone.

That might solve the problem :D

It was ok last night, but then it did it again this morning, while I was browsing through my tweet timeline in plume.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] naturefreak85:
I had a similar issue on mine when rooted. I ended up having to delete the whole data partition and start again from scratch. It was a corruption somewhere in there causing it.

Titanium backup keeps crashing on start up and can't even launch it afterwards

Most importanly is Google play which gives me this error : Authentication is required. You need to sign into your Google Account.

no matter what i do it wont connect i tried 3 different accounts, wiped cache reflashed the ROM, nothing is working it was working before the update this morning
