[General Questions and Answers] chrism.brunner:
No need to be ashamed. Every one of us was new at one time.

An sbf file, is the Motorola file for reflashing the stock operating system to the phone. It returns the phone to the way it was brand new.

Rsd lite is the program used to flash the sbf file. It is installed to your computer, and and " installs" the software on your phone. It can be dangerous if you flash previous versions of android. Many have bricked their devices with this.
[General Questions and Answers] il0v3kush:
Once again, thanks! I was completely lost with Woodrube's reply. I am also fully aware of the possibilities of bricking while flashing. So flashing is something I refuse as a resolve. So all of that are things I won't attempt, to simply avoid that from occurring.

How about if I uninstalled root and replaced it with shell root. My wife has a GT-i9100 on 4.0.3, with shell root...I know the pro and con of shell root vs root. Surprisingly, she hasn't lost her root access! However, with shell root your device only has temporary root access. Will I still be able to grant su access, for apps such as lucky patcher, TB, and the many other apps used to tweak performance and settings?

Man this is burning out my mind!!!! Maybe, I'll just give it a try...won't know until I try right? On SuperOneClick, which exploit should I use though? Should I use motofail, zergrush, or gingerbreak? I am currently running 2.3.5 (on a Razr XT910, of course) which is a gingerbread, if I am correct. I used zergRush on my GT-P1000N running 2.3.4 which I'm assuming is a gingerbread too.

Also, what are ideal min. - max. values for over/underclocking my device? Where I won't sacrifice too much performance for battery life.
[General Questions and Answers] chrism.brunner:
I used the automatic script for unlocking the bootloader, rooting, and installing cwm. I used unlock_ version 4.2.

As to overclocking, I don't anymore. The phone I am using now is a new one from Motorola to replace the one with constant reboots. I am told it was a hardware issue, but I'm not sure of it wasn't related to constant changing kernels and overclocking. I am actually satisfied with the atrix on the stock kernel and clock speed.

I haven't used the root that you are talking about, but it might be an option. Try it on your wifes phone, if you can.

Let me know, if you will. I'm interested now.

As to sbf files, no need to worry about it. I have found it to be totally safe. If you Need to get back to stock, it works. I have done it many times. Just flash the same or newer version.
[General Questions and Answers] WeldFire:
Superuser

Could this not be worked around by denying root access to the game using superuser?
[General Questions and Answers] il0v3kush:
thanks, thanks! i bricked my xt910 changing the boot logo. at least i know not to change that from now on.
[General Questions and Answers] chrism.brunner:
What app were you using to change the boot logo?
[General Questions and Answers] il0v3kush:
Rom Manager Pro....and no you can't work around by denying root access. The games are granted permission to see all apps running in background. I have tried denying such permissions with Permission Denied, whatever the name is. All it did was automatically close the game. Didn't even launch at all, immediately closed.
[HTC Rezound] YTHero:
The main question is the title - Should you S-off before or after the OTA?

I have seen people around the forums (via a few searches) say that it is likely a good idea to perform S-off before OTA because we didn't know for sure if the OTA would close the S-off exploit. Now that the OTA is a known quantity, is that still the best route?

My device is:

Stock rom and firmware (2.01.605.11)

Unlocked

AmonRA 3.15 recovery

Rooted

I'm a little nervous about doing S-off, but I figure it will be really handy to have it once its done, and I understand it really is no big deal. My end goal is to run the Venom rom and then move to AOKP/CM9 once they have most of the bugs worked out. Would my best course of action be to S-Off, run the firmware updater, reinstall recovery (probably TWRP, seems like that is the most popular one at the moment), then flash my rom of choice? Will I need to re-root if I switch to a different recovery?

UPDATE:

S-off is done and was no big deal, I got it on my third try. I selected to not install the jb_hboot during the process, since I'm doing RUU next.

The 3.14.605.12 RUU (from android police) was as simple as could be, I renamed the file to PH98IMG.zip and dumped it into my sd card, once I rebooted into the bootloader it was automatic from there

I got stuck on the "flash juopunut Bear hboot" part, I am using Hasoon2000's HTC Rezound ALL-In-One Kit and S-Off Toolkit. I thought I could just flash the hboot from this and be done... I learned that unless you have the jb_hboot (the latest vigor hboot from unlimited.io) installed you can't use ADB commands (which the toolkits use). The solution was very simple. I just renamed the jb_hboot to PH98IMG.zip, rebooted into the bootloader and it was installed.

TWRP v. 2.20 flashed, for some reason my phone doesn't charge while plugged in and booted into this recovery. I guess I need to make sure I have a nice charge if I want to do anything major.

Installed ViperRez rom 1.03, now I'm toying around with it
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
I would do it beforehand. Once you are s-off, you can flash the latest firmware without installing the whole RUU also.
[HTC Rezound] sk8bert12:
But it limits from getting the actual ota which I love to see:p
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
I would do it before and then after you S-Off run through this PH98IMG RUU. From talks, this is the OTA.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1810931

Then flash the patched 2.25.2525 JB hboot from http://unlimited.io/hboot-downloads/

EDIT:

Alternatively you could S-Off, flash latest radios and patched hboot, then flash a rom of your choosing based on 605.10 or 605.12.
[HTC Rezound] sk8bert12:
I'm still going to wait to see if we can get s-off on ics before updating today as I don't have the wire to currently do the exploit.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
All I am saying is this. Why wait for the OTA when their are already roms based off 605.10, barely anything changed from it to 605.12. Also, S-Off will stick as long as you make it stick.
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
why wait for the ota when the ota was leaked?
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
You are on Gingerbread firmware, that's the first thing to recognize. There's lots of development tools that were designed AFTER the Gingerbread firmware (2.xx is GB; 3.xx is ICS). In fact Amon Ra 3.15 was the version done after the ICS leak (because mount points were changed).

So you can (and probably should) do the S-OFF using the GB version over at Juopunut's site and then either wait for the ICS OTA to come to your phone or flash it in bootloader as a PH98IMG.ZIP (the RUU is available via Android Police, 3.14.605.12 is the "official" ICS, and I'm pretty sure its here on XDA but I don't remember the thread.)

If you don't want to wait for the OTA, it doesn't matter whether you are S-ON or S-OFF, you'll still have to flash the RUU in hboot. Both will completely wipe your phone, and the S-OFF process will wipe your CARD so use a different card before you do it!

Finally, to reiterate what's all over by now: the "official" update, 3.14.605.12 is only marginally different than the unofficial leak that's been out since May, 3.14.605.10, and the radios, kernel and hboot are all the same.
[HTC Rezound] YTHero:
I recieved the OTA today from Verizon, but deferred to take until I figured out what I want to do. If I understand what you are saying:

S-Off -> OTA -> install TWRP -> then Flash ViperRez or whatever rom

Taking the OTA seems like the easiest and most straight forward way of upgrading to ICS radios/hboot. Will I need to do anything else before or following the OTA? I feel like somewhere I read that I will need to patch the hboot because I will be S-off.
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
After you s off, flash juopunutBears hboot it should be on his website

I'm just trying to figure out if I will have to reflash the juopunutBears hboot after I flash the Hboot/radio/firmware files from 3.14.605.12

So will it be:

[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
You got it right on.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gbeardmore:
I see there's a new Gingerbread AT&T ROM released, with some discussion in other threads about the new radio that's included (26.17.14.11_m).

This got me wondering, have there been any Radios released specifically for ICS or JB? I'm under the assumption that the radios I've used were all written for GB. I'm currently on the ICS Redemption v1.2.7 ROM, with the Radio 26.14.04.28 and the combo works fine.

But I'm wondering, can new radios ONLY be released by the manufacturer when an Official ROM for a device is released? Or have any radios been ported over to the Inspire 4G, similar to the way ROMs have been ported?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nick281051:
Considering there isn't ics for the dhd or inspire no there are no ics or jb radios
[HTC Inspire 4G] ai6908:
Radios cannot be ported over. Only ROMs can be.
[HTC One V] a.child:
Is there an app that uses stitching from the panorama function to create higher res images? I was thinking something like moving the phone in a small circle (in a parallel plane to the image), then the app uses the overlaped images to create a single new one with a higher resolution? I know there are apps that "increase the mp" of your camera, but it's just copying and pasting pixels for the most part.

Verifies that the firmware package that you downloaded is not corrupt, then enters in download mode, flash with ODIN ,if it remains in bootloop enters into recovery and performs wipe date , factory reset, should start ....

download stock rom,go to download mode,and flash with odin..after that,full wipe,factory reset.try flash it with new downloaded ics md5 file again.

May i know which firmware is consider a stock rom? i tried few of them from sammobile, but all stuck at factoryfs.img >.<
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] giangp1:
The same to me, maybe superbrick.

Try to download pit file for P6200 and reflash firmware, pit file via Odin.

If not work, send it to SS service for warranty or repartition use pit file, look for at Gnotes, Tab 7.7 box.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] wingie6200:
everything from sammobile is a stock ROM.

you tried a few?? what was your criteria for choosing them?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dejima:
Those from my region and some randomly picked. I also tried with pit and repartition...well~ no luck too :mad:

[Desire HD General] dg170775:
I know that there are a few threads already around this topic. But, I have a few specific questions that I wanted to raise.

Now that it's been confirmed that HTC won't be offering an ICS OTA for the DD, I wanted to know which of the different ROMs out here would suite me the best.

What I need is a ROM That's closest to the Vanilla ICS version, and one that includes Sense 3.5 I think?

Lastly, I'm a noob when it comes to flashing a custom ROM on the phone, and I've completed my contract with DHD and the phone has never been rooted. So, it would help if someone can offer a few simple instructions.

I also read through a few threads around similar topics, and could see that people are suggesting a few ROMs, but there are issues around the Camera & Video Camera. I am a very heavy user of both of these features, so, would that be a problem?

Thanks.

My sisters gnex is acting strange.

I try to unlock bootloader.. it says unlocked, and when rebooted, says again locked.. (in fastboot)

Also when i try to reset the phone(factory reset), using stock recovery, or the option in the settings, NOTHING happens!!!

The phone reboots, and it is in the same state it was a couple of days ago with:

gps opened, 3g enabled...

Whatever i do to the phone, it restores to that state...

Also some random reboots occured in the past, and phone again went to this state, no matter what changes you do on the phone. eg my sister put face unlock.. and after a random reboot we got:

previous unlock method and.. gps on, 3g enabled..

Any ideas???

Phone is on 4.0.4, and IMM76K..

3.0.8 kernel.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] TrypWyr:
Hey all,

So I've got a couple Galaxy Tabs for an elementary school. I am trying to find a way to manage custom "images" so we can quickly re-deploy for multiple functions (reader device for children, travel device for teachers, etc). If I could root the devices, I could simply create custom ROM backups with all the needed apps for each function and then simply install the needed ROM... but rooting isn't really an option for me at this point. Since these are business machines, we need to keep the warranty intact.

I'm thinking I need a way to quickly deploy app packages after a stock wipe, this way I can push all apps at once for each function. Does anyone have/know of a way I could achieve this functionality using a stock device without root access? I am currently pursuing "APK Multi-Tool", formerly "APK Manager", but have yet to determine if this requires root. Also, I think modifying the APKs is out of the scope of what I need.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Tryp
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] shakatu:
App Backup & Restore doesn't use root and can backup apps to the SD card. As this isn't root, it won't backup data, but can batch back-up/restore apps.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] TrypWyr:
Thanks Shakatu, I am looking into that app manager right now...

Along these lines, would anyone perhaps know of a Windows-based app manager/installer which does not require root?

Thanks for the assistance!

Yes the Omega is the Radar. Not to shoot before asking questions but it would seem you are not a veteran at the phone flashing game? A word of warning before proceeding with the HSPL Second Generation: Buy the Y-Cable, and use SD (I wouldnt use SDHC) Card rather than a USB flash drive, the smaller the SD card the better (I was successful with a Sandisk 256MB SD), also use a single card reader as opposed to a multi. These will get you best results, trust me, i tried everything lol.
