When I went from RR back to GB stock I just flash with mobile odin pro and root is still there.I never need to use a pc now....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HANDSY:
I understand what you're after factory reset, wipe dalvik and format system will give you a clean installation in terms of rom. If it's a complete wipe you can wipe the sd card from setting /backup and reset. But this will wipe music photos too. Once rooted you can always browse the directories and manually delete any unwanted files/folders. Please check your kernel first.

I've had similar problem when I was a bit happy at flashing. I went from RR 2.6.1 to cm 10 jb and lost my unlock now when ever I reboot I have too re unlock. I've still not found a solution and can't restore my nv backup as it always says permissions wrong.using astro

How to stock > custom rom > 100% same stock?

Hello,

did not want to start new thread with same name, but my question a little different.

So I bought S2 and I would like to play with some custom ROM of course. Not my first Android phone, but new phone new unknown things.

I read many post, but it is still not clear if I can make my stock rom and kernel backup, then root it, have some fun and if I need just restore stock rom and kernel and every thing would be as it was new?

I understand how to root and this CF-Root in Stock Recovery method looks like can do this. But will it be that way?

For example, with this method I have my stock kernel backup, also make stock rom backup, install some custom ROMs/kernels and later just install stock rom and restore stock kernel using this method and I am back to starting point?

:confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HANDSY:
Hi, to return your phone to stock all you need to do is:

Make note of your current ROM and download the same from samfirmware

Download Odin

Perform full wipes and format system in recovery mode

Then into download mode where you flash the stock ROM in the PDA section of doing.

Included will be a stock kernel and root would have been lost.

To reset binary counter look at the app triangle away by chain fire.

All the best.

@Handsy - Reaaly sorry to bump into someone else's thread.. Apologies..Curiosity took a toll on me..

In case i have a Nandroid backup and i wish to restore it, how do i do it? I mean, i am aware that i will have to do it using CWM Recovery. I have my Nandroid backup on my external SD card. I wish to try some custom ROM's and would like to restore my Nandroid if i am not satisfied with the custom ROM experience.

Could you please list out the steps :)

Thanks a lot!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HANDSY:
To restore a back up:

Boot into recovery mode

In recovery mode enter back up and restored menu

Then select restore from external memory / sd card

Phone will restore to the time the back up was made.

Some kernels have different CWM menu layouts but the above should get you to the Nandroid backup you made.

All the best

Hello Guys found some threads talking about install windows 8 on my tablet, would like to know if is this really possible, and how about dual boot with android and windows 8? i would like to see some tutorial for it! if someone could help me ill be glad, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] msedek:
It's not possible as windows 8 its closed source and you need in first place a Kernel able to handle the hardware from windows and that dear won't happen ever..

So you would see windows xxx development as much as you see ios development.. So let's do the maths. Erm its so hard... (1 hour later) oh yeah the answer its 0
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] edneyhelene:
Oh..=(

But what about that tablets that comes with windows 8 arm? must be a port for tablets....i really need to run some operational system different, like ubuntu native or windows native...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] msedek:
Buy a windows 8 tab then.. Some android devices has Linux ports partially working but I don't see the point on doing that...

As I said can't be ported unless there's some tab with the exact same hardware wich I highly doubt will happen... Having the same processor mean nothing it needs several other things..

Put it in this way.. Get 2 computers with same processor core i7 with a different motherboard/hard drive /video card/network cards/modems then create an image from 1 of the 2 pcs and try to use that image in the other pc... It won't boot at all even if they have the same processor...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] edneyhelene:
Got it!

Hum now i understand what are you talking about, thanks for helping me...have a nice day sir
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] ringnutz:
I think Lenovo has announced a tablet that will dual boot android and Windows 8, but unless someone reverse engineers all our drivers, it will never happen on our tabs

[HTC Desire S] AMKiss:
Hello everyone. I have already read many guides and so on. I have unlocked my bootloader, rooted phone, installed custom ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1805450) using ADB. So I have several question for experiencied users.

1. I have boot version 2.00.2002, is it possible to make S-OFF withoot downgrading hboot version?

2. I was charging my phone till 100%. I think that mine battery drains too fast, what do you think? I had only one call which duration was less than 1minute. All time phone was locked and do not used. Battery shows 82% after 5 hours without touching it.. The third screenshot was made 1hour and 20 minutes later and battery shows 76 % only .. During this time i have made these screenshots only. What issues could you suggest? Sorry for Lithuanian language but you should understand it because of icons.

3. Is it worth to return back to stock ROM (OTA) and install official ICS whick will be available tomorrow (maybe) or is it better stay with custom ROM made by Andromadus (link above) or other ROM? Why?

4. How to manage my contacts? Before custom ROM (I had official 2.3.5. version) I had phone contacts linked with facebook contacts. It was very nice because photos were shown and so on. I have used MobileGo for contacts backup. When I have restored to new ROM, I have noticed that contacts doubles! One name from phone memory and other from facebook. How to delete unwanted contacts?

You must downgrade

Sounds reasonable

always difficult to gague as don't know all your settings, downloads, syncing etc

3

Wait for custom

I have installed RetroClock widget, Facebook app, Youtube, Skype and MobileGo and gapps. Thats all. Wifi and mobile network was off. During this night battery have droped till ~30% It means about 50% during the night.. I never had such a problems before.. Maybe I need something additional? Like newer Radio or smth else? My device dies in one day with 3 screenshots and 1minute duration call.. it's not cool :(
[HTC Desire S] kether81:
Perhaps trying with SetCPU?
[HTC Desire S] AMKiss:
No, I have not changed any system parameters.

P.S. ben_pyett, I have noticed that you have S-OFF and hboot version 2.00.2002. How did you do that? Could you write me a short guide or drop a link? Because I cannot find any solution for that on internet..

1 how did you xtcclip and still retain hboot 2.00

2 if it's that much of a chore, why not install the enghboot

I used the xtc about one and half years ago, when I was on 98.X hboot. I later upgraded the hboot when the original 2.X leaked boot was first released (leaked).

It's no chore, but also no real advantage, my hboot is ENG

If the goal is just to have your individual backgrounds, just hit the Menu button, choose "import", and import a pdf-file you made before with your own design, Watch out: The "import" button opens a kind of browser, where you can choose your pdf with a checkbox. If you just hit the name of the file, it attempts to open it. Find the "OK" button in the upper right corner when checked the checkbox, that imports it and brings you back to s-note.

Any good car dock for road driving recording for SGS4G? I am using DailyRoads Voyager and to switch to Autoguard Blackbox.

I like to be able to jump into the car and snap my phone on the charging dock and press a button for it to record my driving. Being able to use a voice dialer is also great.

Samsung makes a OEM (good quality) one (ECS-M979BEGSTA) and even it is labelled as for Galaxy S 4G, it doesn't have an opening cut for the rear camera. I bought one and tried to cut the opening myself and almost broken the sliding mechanism. It does have excellent quality for my phone (when the case is removed) and it has a slider that you push into the phone for charging. It is also very stable when mounted. Problems I had was the arm was so long and huge and the swivel ball doesn't give much rotating angle. Finding a spot on my 2007 prius to mount so that 1, it faces the road straight, 2, it doesn't block my view for road condition, 3, the suction cup base doesn't show up on the video screen, 4, my wipers don't show on the video screen, 5, it doesn't stick to my nose or forehead, 6, it doesn't interfere the sunvisor and 7, it mounts on the windshield, not on the dash using the 3M adhesive base... is quite impossible.

By default if you are in a accident and hit the person from behind it is your fault. However with more people using driving cams and smart phones to record driving people are able to prove they werent necessarily at fault.

Its also good to catch road rage so you can prove the other person was the one that instigated it. There are tons of uses for driving cameras.

Hello all

This is my first post here.

I bought a new HTC One X from amazon.co.uk and installed Revolution HD 9.2.0

I was happy to see that it has so many languages, but it lacks Hebrew.

I don't mind that, I hate Hebrew OS anyway.

But, even after the Revolution HD installation, I couldn't find the HTC Sense keyboard with Hebrew layout in it.

I had to download Swype keyboard, which is pretty nice, but I would prefer the real deal.

Is there any stock/kernel/something that will give the HTC Sense keyboard a Hebrew layout, or should I buy the phone in Israel itself?

Thanks to all the readers and helpers,

Liron

Sorry, does not exist.

Even in original "Touch-Group" ROMS (or custom ARHD) with a full Hebrew interface the Sense keyboard doesn't have Hebrew.
