Hi mate, glad you like the tutorial.

Where is this spider lockring that you speak of? Is it in post # 5 in this thread? Or is it in another thread?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EliteLegend:
I was in the process of rooting my phone (and tried unlocking it) and I am not sure what happened but after the phone came back, I got the root but my data got wiped out. Apparently, I found out that some phones do this for security reasons. I must have been careless and done something wrong. Now, because Galaxy Nexus uses MTP, it is technically not possible to mount it as a disk drive and use conventional PC-based recovery software.

Theoretically speaking, shouldn't it be possible to take a flash dump of the internal disk and use an offline utility such as extundelete to recover my lost data? I saw this idea posted in this thread but no one followed up on it.

Any suggestions on how I can hack around?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Technically maybe.... if the partition is not zero'ed. But you would need to find some way to dump the userdata partition. You can't dump it to somewhere on the device, so you would need to somehow dump that partition to an external drive. Maybe you could look at trying this out. (I haven't had the chance to try it out myself yet.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whozamazinka:
Did this work?

So, did this work?

I ran into the same problem with my nexus.

I have no skills with ADB at all, so before I jump into trying to learn anything to be able to take a flash dump, I was hoping that someone could report back as to whether or not this worked.

Thank you!

Photo Recovery

During a recent trip outside the country, I purchased a prepaid sim card for my unlocked, bought directly from Google, Galaxy Nexus. During this time, the OTA update for JB was released and I updated my phone with the new firmware. After completing the update, I was unable to make phone calls or receive any signal whatsoever. I contacted my domestic carrier T-Mobile who instructed me to do a factory reset. Unfortunately, I did not make a back up of the video footage of my family (Holocaust survivors). Currently the phone does not have a baseband or IMEI number and I have been unable to recover my photos. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Here is what I have done so far:

Photo Recovery

1.	Attempted to restore a previous backup – No backup was made previously!!!!!!UGH!

2.	Unlocked Bootloader with ADB. ADB Pull / Media – Nothing….

3.	ADB pull / partition – Only received system files, no media files.

4.	Tried to Use data recovery software PhotoRec. – would not recognize internal drive on Galaxy Nexus (USB Debugging on/off, Samsung drivers loaded correctly, Camera mode: nada)

5.	Tried to use multiple different online photo recovery software. None could detect the phone’s drive when scanning.

IMEI/Baseband missing Issue

1.	Re-flashed original firmware using WugFresh’s Nexus Root Toolkit. No dice.

2.	Attempted to flash alternative ROM.

3.	Re-flashed radio via NRToolkit and ADB

4.	Attempted to use apps: HC-ktool, GetRill Premium- nada

The goal is to firstly restore the wiped data and retrieve the photos. Then to fix the missing baseband issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
In your case I'm thinking you're s.o.l. First, when unlock the bootloader the phone gets wiped. So when you tried to pull....there was nothing to pull. Data recovery won't work because can't mount gnex as mass storage. Then you tried...three different flashes..? I'm gonna have to say it's gone. Just go back to stock.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earendil85:
Having the same issue as Buzzbox - i.e. missing baseband and IMEI. In my case JB 4.1.1 was working just fine, when the phone simply restarted, and the baseband and IMEI vanished.

Phone came with ICS, after which i had recieved OTA jellybean - but this was a month ago. Didnt install any custom ROMs.

To try and fix this, i flashed factory image of ICS - but still nothing on IMEI and baseband. Help please...

Hi was getting ready to root my i747 sgs3 via the no counter method < http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 > I was wondering what the difference between ucalg1 and ucalem images is? OP of previoius thread says that ucalg1 is completely stock just root injected, so what does the other have to offer? I'm sorry I would post this in that thread but I'm unable to post in there. And I searched quite a bit to no avail. I just found several roms based off one or the other.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Ucalem is the firmware that was released on the phone initially. Lg1 is an update, so it's newer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
The only downside to the LG1 version is that Google removed universal search from their search app. But if you're rooted, this is easily remedied. Just replace /system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk with this one.

I am on Paranoid Android 1.9.2 (JB) with default kernel and settings.

Of course, my device is Nexus S with amoled.

Overnight, I observed that the system is waking up quite often. battery usage screenshot, logcat, wakelock are attached.

Checking the logcat, I could only find below every 30 minutes or so popping up regularly. Since, looking into Android logcat is something new to me, I would like support of the experienced with some time to spare and kind heart to care. :)

1, Reboot into recovery,

2, Select "select zip from SD card"

3, Locate where your radio file is

4, Select it and "yes"

5, Wait for it to reboot and you're done!

and the installation gets aborted when it tries to verify the update package. BTW i'm not rooted.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jesusice:
I noticed that the latest Gapps have removed YouTube noting that it has been updated in the Play Store so it is no longer needed. Not exactly true.

While YouTube in the Play Store has been updated as of 7/25/2012 it is not the most up to date.

I realized this when I went into setting and could no longer enable preloading. Yet Play Store told me YouTube v4.0.23 was the most up to date. I did some digging and downloaded the 7/17 Gapps and saw that it included YouTube v4.0.8 which does allow preloading. I'm not sure why Google would leave it out of the Play Store version but if anyone has missed this feature here is YouTube v4.0.8 https://dl.dropbox.com/u/16495902/YouTube.apk .

Just make sure not to update it or you will end up with 4.0.23 which does not allow preloading.

Oh, almost forgot! I was not able to install it like a normal .apk and had to manually stick it in /system/app, change permissions, and reboot.

UPDATE: 4.0.23 does have preloading options but if you put the app in either phablet or tablet mode it will remove the options. 4.0.8 does still show the preloading in either mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] truecrisis:
I have 4.0.23 and I have a preloading option in my settings menu...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jesusice:
Are you sure? I just checked and had 4.0.8 and had preloading options in settings. Went to the Play Store and updated to 4.0.23 and went into YouTube settings again and there was no preloading options. Went into Settings - Apps - YouTube and uninstalled the update and preloading settings are back.

Thanks guys, I figured it out! I'm using Paranoid Android and if I put YouTube 4.0.23 in either phablet or tablet mode it removes the preloading option but if I put it in phone mode it has the option again. Weird.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] incredulous:
I think you'll find that the play store version is the most up to date. In what universe does twenty three come before 8? Preloading is in 23 as I'm using it currently.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jesusice:
Yes, you are right. I posted an update in the OP. The problem was when using Paranoid Android, which allows you to adjust the display mode of each app (phone, phablet, tablet, etc), on 4.0.23 it doesn't allow preloading in either phablet or tablet mode, just in phone mode. Which is weird because 4.0.8 does allow them in either mode. I was going to have a mod close this thread but didn't get around to it and was going to let this thread just naturally sink down into the abyss of forgotten threads. Then you bumped it without reading it :)
[General Questions and Answers] fd4101:
I am just curious with the introduction of quad core tablets, how do they match up to similar spec CPU in raw power. I understand that android, iOS, and windows ( in the future) are mobile OS, So directly comparing the to a laptop is useless. I did however notice that the new t33 clocked and 1.6ghz is only .1 slower than my laptop to with is running a AMD quad core at 1.7ghz. So I'm just wondering is it a direct comparison in just processing power alone or is the architecture so different in the laptop and desktop that even at the same speed they win in the power category .

I have had an issue with G Maps for awhile now. The position seems to fix fine sometimes with gps, but then it will start to jump around and become unreliable. I don't believe it to be a problem with the gps radio as the gps test app checks out fine, the nav app works fine, orux maps with the gmaps overly works fine. I tried to uninstall the app but being a system app has made it difficult. I have also rolled back up dates but that didn't help. I am on the newest version now. I am running Nottachtrix with faux oc kernal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

[Atrix 4G General] tomh235:
G Maps appears to be dodgy on some roms. I have a problem on stock rom with later versions of gmaps where gps would get a lock, but gmaps would only report the cell tower location. Downgrading to 5.8 solved my problem.

[Atrix 4G General] island-guy:
+1 on the downgrade....I've had nothing but problems with Maps 6+ where I was never able to get a lock at all. I recommend getting GPS status to make sure that your GPS is working, this is how I discovered that it was G Maps because it showed that my device GPS was working perfectly. Downgraded and it works flawlessly. Good luck!

New Google Map forces you to turn on Wifi

The new version of Google Map forces you to turn on Wifi regardless of any hotspot. As soon as I turn on Wifi, GPS on my Atrix is locked.

BTW, GPS on Google Navigation still locks when wifi is off.
[Atrix 4G General] tomh235:
OK, I installed the latest gmaps 6.10 and the compass seems smoother than ever but the gps location still isn't reported despite getting a lock. One solution that does work though is to switch off network location and you will get an accurate gps fix. Unsure whether to downgrade or not now :-$

Anyone know how to file a bug report with Google?

Well, I left GPS on while at home and in the last hour it's been slowly creeping to a location 1km from where I actually am. Gonna try the neutrino gps fix next.

[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Heya everyone,

As some of you know, I’ve been developing Android for the HTC Desire S for over a year now. Initially working alongside SuperKid, then maintaining CM7 alone. nk111 joined me as joint maintainer when developing CM9 and he has done a truly spectacular job with both CM9 and CM10. I cannot express how grateful I am to him for his tireless effort.

CM7 development was nice and straightforward, leading to a quick initial release. It rapidly reached a stable state and became an officially supported device with CM7.1. However, the the road to CM9/10 has been anything but smooth. Even today we rely on code to use both the older 2.6 kernel and Gingerbread libraries in ICS and JB. Whilst this code mostly works, the bugs and crashes keep the ROM from losing its alpha status. For example, issues with outdated touchscreen drivers, corruption in the Android interface, hard-crashes when using heavy 3D applications, and more.

HTC promised the official ICS upgrade for the Desire S in the June to July timeframe but, aside from a single chinese release, there hasn’t been any further progress. Whilst HTC have removed the release schedule from their website, they still publicly state they are committed to releasing the Desire S update:

However, the scheduled release was the June-July time-frame. I don't need to tell you that it's now August.

HTC have not been forthcoming with the 3.0 kernel source either, this is a key requirement for pushing forward ICS / JB development. The chinese ICS OTA brought hope that we would see this code sooner rather than later, but numerous attempts at contact with HTC have proven fruitless.

Development has largely stalled for me. The time spent on trying to port the Desire S to the 3.0 kernel taught me a lot, but ultimately lead to nothing. Aside from a couple of minor maintenance releases, I haven’t managed any real Android development in 2 months due to a complete lack of both motivation and time.

Regrettably I’ve decided to stand down as the maintainer for CyanogenMod. It’s been a wild ride over the past 12 months, I’ve met many new friends and learned a lot, but for now I feel it’s time to just be a regular user.

I still plan to hang around the XDA forums, help out where I can and keep in touch, but I won’t be doing ROM development or releases for the foreseeable future. What of CyanogenMod? nk111 has already agreed to take over as the full maintainer and my access to push changes won't be removed, so the door is open for the future. nk111 and I will discuss how to handle the CyanogenMod development threads tomorrow.

So before I end this post, there is one last thing I want to say, and it’s by far the most important:

Thank you to every single one of you who has sent kind messages, clicked that “Thanks” button, or parted with your hard-earned cash and sent a donation my way. It’s truly an honour to be part of this community. To see the work I’ve contributed to be used by tens of thousands of users is just an amazing feeling, I’m truly touched.
