[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jayochs:
so hey guys, recently got a used nexus from a guy, and i'm running Jellybean on it and love it!

however, he changed his splashscreen using LogoMe when he was on ICS to the michigan state logo....i clearly have no desire to see that whenever i boot up the phone, so i want to just get the stock Google image back, or a Nexus image, or anything pertaining to the phone.

i bought LogoMe, but after purchasing, it said it didn't work with my version of hboot (i believe) so i assumed it won't work with JB, so i refunded it.

is there a guide out there as to how to do this manually? i wasn't keen on paying $2.50 just to change a splash image ONE time and never touch it again, so i'm glad i refunded the purchase...but i mean, there has to be a manual way to do this some how. every other phone i've owned (htc eris, inc, rezound, flyer) all have ways to do this, and i would think a phone as dev-friendly as the Nexus would as well!

thanks for any help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Um hboot? Wtf is hboot?

LOL

Boot loader. What boot loader are you running. And it should support it. It just got an update to support the latest boot loader. And jelly bean. Should have taken a screen shot. The manual way of doing this is extremely tough. From what I've heard.

bahaha sorry, i come from HTC! :p

but i actually just saw he updated it for the newest bootloader, so i bought it again. everything works fine now! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Good there are options for the stock logo. But I have a thread started for custom images in Themes and apps section. I even make custom ones. :D

I tried to ask in android-building about changing splash screen, wasn't even accepted nor was I told why it wasn't.

Saw a tut for it on kandroid, but idk if that works.

I would like to know how to do this as well. If anyone knows, any info would be much appreciated.

Nexus 7 splash image change

I am also interested in knowing how to change splash for JellyBean on Nexus 7. Any help is appreciated.

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unlawful:
EDIT: Never mind, major misunderstanding.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That's not what this thread is about. It is NOT about changing the boot animation. It is about changing the splash screen, i.e., the screen with "Google" in white and the unlock icon at the bottom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unlawful:
Ooops, major misunderstanding then. Sorry!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
Logo me should be compatible with JB bootloaders. Did you try installing busybox using stericssons installer?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yes, I think it does. But I'm pretty sure the OP wants to figure out how to do it without LogoMe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
Hm, I just realized something. If OP just wants the original Google boot logo back and not a custom one, isn't flashing the bootloader enough to get rid of it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Although I haven't looked at the bootloader to see if the image is stored in there, you are probably right, it should revert to the original splash screen if you flash a stock bootloader. If not, what would work is to get a hold of someone's SBL partition and flash that using dd.

am having problem whit my battery on my hd2 i charge it to 100% and 20 min later the battery is on 70% and the phone was rebuilt on the firts 3 days it was working fine and a week later problem whit the battery can anyone help me why this is happening thanks XDA
[HD2 General] BullGawd:
Are you running a stock ROM? Did you reset batter stats? Is the battery an OEM replacement or a cheap eBay version?
[HD2 General] emilio10:
I am running ICS miui and yes my battery is oem
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bc13:
Screen has gone black. Sometimes i can see everything fine for a second and then it just goes black. I know the phone is still on because I can feel the haptic feedback of the buttons even when its black. My question is how do I unroot my phone so I can return it through verizon without the use of the screen? Any help would be appreciated I am at a loss on this.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
Have you tried a battery pull? Can you still access your recovery? :o

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bc13:
I have done a battery pull and it did nothing. I have not tried recovery but I dont think that will help, I believe it is a hardware issue with the screen.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bc13:
You know I actually tried that, I even did the haaaa with the thumbs out thing but that didnt work.:laugh: So I am guessing by the lack of responses that I am just screwed and I will not be able to fix it. If anyone has any ideas i would really appreciate it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
Well, at least try to access your bootloader first and then narrate what happened. :)

Sent from my Sensified ICS phone
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
Like david_hume suggested I would try getting into boot loader first.

My guess is that its hardware failure. If you no longer have warranty/insurance on your phone you could try taking your phone apart. It could be as simple as the connection for the LCD came loose. My other guesses would be the LCD could have went bad or the connection on the PCB failed. You might want to start looking for a donor phone if you can find one cheap. Or if you aren't up for the DIY challenge it could be time for a new phone. If you decide to try fixing it I highly recommend looking for a good tear down video on YouTube.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bc13:
The phone is still under the htc 1 year warranty so I could have it replaced under that. My only question is will they be able to tell its rooted by hooking it up to a computer or will they just give me a new one since the screen went dead.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
I'm not sure about that. I've never done an exchange through them. I have heard of people getting warranty replacements while their phone is rooted but not sure if that is through VZW or HTC.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockcycle:
I am sure people are going to chime in telling you, there is no BEST modem. Each region, city, location, area has it's own "BEST" and you will have to test that yourself.

So before that happens, I will direct you to where I went;

Hope that helps,

P.S. I tried them all, none gave me any better call signal/reception. But I might have experienced better data, I wasn't testing for that, so I didn't take much notice.. I am now on XXLFB from the XXBLFB (BTU) UK update and I am still testing, but so far no obvious increases..

Sorry to resurrect this old thread but in trying to use the i9300, I bought in Germany, in the United States on the At&t network and am not sure which modem to use from the modern thread. I'm on every latest cm10.1 build so JB 4.2.2 and up.

Please help me! I appreciate it.

Just picked up a brand new Verizon Nexus off of craigslist for cheap. Guy that was selling it new nothing about it. Said the camera wont open. When going to open camera it says "Unfortunately Camera Has Stopped" or something like that. Did a factory reset and still same thing.

Im a current HTC Rezound user. I know nothing about Samsung phones. Although i did fix a buddies Galaxy 3G once.

Anybody have any ideas? Should i reload stock software or something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DertyDOH:
I'd flash the stock rom, or any rom for that matter
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tbgreen89:
I downloaded the Toolkit v7.2 and the stock imm76k firmware version. Im lost on what i do next to reload the factory image. Can you help me out?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tbgreen89:
Okay got it figured out. Still no camera. It has to be a hardware problem then right? Did i get screwed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cole_himself:
You, my friend, got screwed. It is, in fact, a hardware issue and your only choices are to get your money back from the guy (not likely), take it to a repair shop and have them take a look, sell it to someone else (shady), or deal with it. I had the same camera issue with my Infuse 4G. No software fix. Just broken hardware. Sorry to hear you got cheated, though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ApokrifX:
Guys,

Does anybody know how to do same with setprop? :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
EDIT: Koush is working hard on compiling CWM6 for all the newer devices. He already has a working version for the international S3 up so we should be looking at getting it here shortly. Notable differences, 720p support. Once it is official for us I will post it. If it is fully functional I will remove everything except my port, and the stock option that way people are not confused, but can still have some preference if need be.

Edit 2: When pushing a new recovery do it TWICE before using. I know mine works fine. My version should display as v.5.8.4.5

Edit 3: ROM Manager does

NOT

work with any recovery except the official recovery by Koush. You CAN boot into recovery via ROM Manger on the others, but that is it.

I am not responsible for your newly formed brick! I am also not an ADB expert, please search if you need help! ROM Manager DOES work with this version, you must install recovery manually first, then use ROM Manager to boot into recovery. Since we don't have any custom ROM's yet I can't say it works to install them.

Use whatever method you are comfortable with to push this, be it ADB or Terminal Emulator. CWM Standard can be installed via ROM Manager. The direct link for the Touch version is posted below to avoid purchase costs. Not superseding paying, Koush specified that pushing the recovery manually is free of charge.

Terminal Emulator commands: (Thanks - pdinphx)

Remember to change the name of the recovery, OR change the command line to reflect the name of the recovery! (Replace recovery.img with the appropriate img file name.)

Lastly, DO NOT donate to me for this, PERIOD. This is none of my work, all I did was push a couple buttons.

How would this work if we use recovery for custom kernels?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
Let me figure out one thing at a time, lol. I am a newb dev. I know almost nothing about custom kernels aside from how to flash them on a device with an unlocked bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] invisiblek:
good luck with this, i've tried several recovery.img's on his builder site

none of them worked for me

since he doesn't have source (i still dont understand why) it might be a bit

do we have twrp for this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
I don't think we have any recoveries aside from the one you ported. You input the image from the update tar?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] invisiblek:
i didn't port that recovery, its the exact one from the e4gt team

i tried using the one from the stock image (in the sticky on this forum)

i think we might have better luck (although more work) getting TWRP going on this

we have source code with that, plus it has more features
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
True... Is anyone from TWRP getting the phone?

Took nearly 10 minutes but I got a recovery output img from the builder. I am about to jump off here really quickly though, I have to be up at 4:30am. I'll PM you the img and you can take a look.

Just used TWRP today for the first time on my Prime. I really like it and was hoping it would come to this. My vote goes to TWRP. I'm no good with dev work but can try and help out if needed. I'm a good tester lol

In my experience, never test what a dev wont test, lol. I'll gladly brick my phone as I have backups. I wouldn't push something I am not sure about onto you.

Nope, testing right now finally. No luck even booting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] indyssee:
Does anyone know if its possible to get one of the recoveries through Odin? The reason I ask is to be able to go back to stock factory (and get current/future otas) > flash recovery > boot straight into recovery and flash a rooted custom stock ROM. This isn't a huge deal but I thought it would be nice to be able to have a "clean" flash of a custom stock ROM with up to date stock firmware (ROM, kernel, modems) without having to flash a stock rooted image. Thanks in advance for any advice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
Not everyone wants to go thru the hassle of kexec.

Does the 6.0.1.0 CWM version not simply add k-exec capability on top of the other normal capabilities? That was my understanding.

Has anyone else experienced small nandroid sizes? Im talking like 22mb small. I have other backups that are in the 2gb range which i thought was normal. I haven't tried restoring it as I don't expect it to work properly. Ive tried with both rom manager and directly in CWM any ideas?

EDIT: well I did try the nandroid after tinkering with JB and sure enough it worked like normal.

Total noob here but I flashed a custom clockword mod recovery from the Rom manager app. Titanium backup cannot uninstall apps with this recovery. Is there a way to go back to stock recovery without resetting my phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
Recovery has nothing to do with TiBu being able to delete/freeze apps. You need root access.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dudenell:
I have root, I have superuser. When I attempt to force remove app through tb it tells me

Clockwork mod recovery v5.8.4.9

Finding update package

Unknown volume for path system: app/SecEmail.apk

I'm assuming it has to do with the custom recovery.

Only advice I can give is try to change recoveries, however, recovery has zero bearing on this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sanjsrik:
I'm using CWM through beans ROM. however, when I do a backup, all my dates are set for 1970, Any body have any ideas how to fix this to curren date/time?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lynneddington:
Just rename with No spaces.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sanjsrik:
I'm confused. I am CWM recovery. I choose backup and it backs up the ROM. It doesn't offer me any choice of a name. The system date in CWM recovery is set to 1970, I'm asking how do I set it correctly as I can't find any settings to do this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lynneddington:
So far the date hasn't been fixed. Go into your file manager { I use astro} and rename the backup there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sanjsrik:
I've got 5 backups. I have no idea which is which as they are ALL dated 1970. Okay, now I understand the date thing hasn't been fixed. Okay, easy enough to understand. I'll delete my old backups, create a new one, and rename it after rebooting.

Thanks. See, I thought there was an option in CWM to name backups or at least set the date/time. TWRP has that but I didn't trust it from my Evo days when it would munge backups badly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:
Using rom manager, you can click on "manage and restore backups" and click the backup and rename it from there too.

I have the Synergy Rom 1.7

I use EZ Recovery and no matter what i recovery boot into it goest though the process and in the end i get the error message.

All of my files and folders related to CWM are dated 12-31-1979

It creates the blobs and back up folders but when i try to do a restore it says no files found

i have formated my 32g sd card 3 times and still the same results

I have did a factory wife and reinstall everyting manually still same issue

the error is

I have tried for 2 days to figure this out

any help would be wonderful

Have you tried backing up to the internal sd? Also the dates have been wrong in cwm for as long as l have used it, which is over 2 years and 3 phones now. Switch to twrp it also has bad dates but at least you can name them and type in the date youself from with in recovery.
