I started with CWM but then switched to TWRP, they just released an update and you can get it from GooManager App. I like TWRP better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
The only catch is you cannot restore backups created by one recovery with the other. You will have to reflash the recovery who's backups you want to restore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sacberg:
I mainly use ROM Manager to schedule CWM backups. I notice since the 8/17 update ROM manager does not seem to recognize the external SD. Anyone else run into to this; any work arounds?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ChardC:
I'm experiencing the same issue and my scheduled backups as not executing. Has anyone resolved the above?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Simply use your recovery to create nandroid backups ..

Download flappjaxxx power tool from the market, and you can boot to recovery without having too shut down, or use hard buttons...

As mentioned earlier in the thread ....rom manager is not always perfect ...

And as your seeing now, it has a bug ....g
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lance2ecnal:
Ok so i "had" a fully functional Droid bionic. It was running on eclipse 3.0 everything was fine. So i decided to change roms to Cm9 just to try it for fun. i must have done it wrong because now it is bricked... All it will do is show the boot logo of go into fastboot so i know there is still something there but my battery must be dead because it says battery low cannot program so i can't flash anything to it... So my question is how do i get it charged enough to flash ????? Please help
[Motorola Droid Bionic] linuxgator:
You either need another battery, an external battery charger, or a factory cable. Maybe you have a friend with a Bionic who can either lend you their battery for a while or can charge yours. Otherwise, you probably have to buy something. A new battery at the nearest Verizon store would probably be the quickest solution, but getting something online would be the most cost effective.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lance2ecnal:
Thanks

I do have a factory cable what good does that do me ? And i have no friends with bionics
[Motorola Droid Bionic] linuxgator:
A factory cable isn't the one that came with your phone, it's a cable like they use at the factory to fix and program phones. Basically it has one of the power wires in the USB spliced to a wire that goes to a normally unused pin in the usb connector which allows charging while the phone cannot start.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] lance2ecnal:
Oh...

Oh i see well ok then guess i am screwed
[Motorola Droid Bionic] linuxgator:
There are tutorials online about how to make a factory cable from a standard one, but they can be risky.

Well.. i just went to a battery store and this this little clip thing that charges it via usb. it worked :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arthur Hucksake:
Hi folks,

Bit of a rookie question that's always been a mystery to me on Samsung phones.

When you install a completely fresh stock rom via Odin, does it wipe the cache partitions also? Like a total clean wipe.

Usually I would just go into CWM and do it from there but i''ve been keeping it all stock until the final version of Jellybean comes out.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Yes stock Odin flash is really the same as a wipe or format .

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _terror_:
Hey everyone!

I've had plenty of Android phones through out the years. But recently i had the Iphone 4s. But after 3 months I was so sick of it. So today, i went and bought myself a SGN, and i love it! Have been playing around with it for 1-2 hours now.

I just rooted it via a youtube-clip I found. I'm still on gingerbread though, cuz I don't have a normal sized sim card (the iphone only takes small ones). But here are my questions I need help with.

1) Is there any way to update to ICS without a simcard? Because when I try to update OTA, it just says "Insert simcard".

2) What is your keyboard of choice?

3) I've seen plenty of you guys going in to so called "tablet mode". How do you do that? I want my phone to be in landscape all the time.

4) Is there any good battery packs that works with a flip (book style) case that works like a kickstand if you fold it in a special way? I have seen both good 3rd part batteries AND nice flip book cases that can be folded in to a kickstand, but I want the two of them in one. Or a better battery that are the same physical size as the stock one.

Thanks!

Make sure you read Dr. Ketan for all of the critical info you need for safe ROM and kernel flashing.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahilarora2003:
Answers

1st :- You can flash ICS using PC Odin or Mobile Odin Pro. Just download the rom from ketan thread and put your phone in download mode by pressing Vol Down+Home+Power button simultaneously.

2nd :- For me Swiftkey 3. Link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey&feature=top-paid

3rd :- Tablet mode is the mode that runs on tablets. But as the developers doing wonders day by day you can use it on SGN too. There are some roms in Original Android Development Thread that supports Tablet mode like Paranoid Android/Milestone 6/JB/CM10/CM9 editions. Link to thread :- http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1700

4th :- You can have a look in the accessories section here :- http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1348

I think I've messed up a bit haha. I flashed ICS with PC odin, and everything was fine. But I wanted do try Paranoidandroid. And in that thread it said that you should go back to GB before flashing it. So i did via the link in your signature. I flashed back to GB. But now my phone got messed up. I can boot it up. But at the "first-start-installation" thingy i get FC's on RAM and some calender stuff. Also, when i try to type in my gmail in the beginning it just types "null" for every letter I try to write.

Have i been so stupid and bricked my phone? Could it be that your GB in your signature was a full wipe recovery thing? Cuz I remembered somewhere that you shouldn't wipe the stock ICS.

You have any plans?

As for now, i'm downloading Paranoidandroid v0.5 and i'm going to try to flash it right away and see what happends.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Nothing to.worry, just reboot in recovery and wipe cache and data then flash custom rom.

Force closes is normal when you flash gb rom over ics. And null typing error will go with mew rom.

Guys I've been troubled to find a solution to subtitles in Netflix not showing thru HDMI on TV, that out of frustration I started poking around the settings and on the Developer section I found my answer.

If you want to get you subtitles shown onscreen, go ahead and select Disable HW Overlays in Developers Options.

That totally made the trick for me. Hope it works for you too.

My Wife's unrooted S2 runing the stock ICS is having issues with battery charge.

She has had it for about 1 month.

The past week she can no longer charge it past 70% (this value is continually dropping). It will go to 100% if the phone is charging while off for 12+hours but then as soon as it turns on the battery drops to 75%.

I have read of pulling the battery for a while, Plug in the phone pop in the battery and power on immediately but this has done nothing.

I have not rooted and tried other roms on her phone yet since we may have to return it.

Any suggestions?

BTW... Sorry for one more battery thread. Just didn't find the solution with my searching.

I am giving this update since I received a pm from the someone with the same problem
[HTC Amaze 4G] Minker17:
Alright guys, I've searched and searched and I think I have it all down, just want to lay out my steps and get verification.

I'm on T-Mo ICS, not from OTA, flashed myself

Root

S-Off

4-Ext

I'm sending my phone in and need to go back to stock. I think I would prefer to go back to GB so it's just like from factory with no OTA.

- Download the Stock GB RUU from here - HTC Ruby/Amaze 4G Stock ROMs

- The RUU I want is - PH85IMG_Ruby_TMOUS_1.43.531.3_Radio_1.08.550L.19DC _30.66.550L.08D_release_228638_signed

- Following These Directions I connect via ADB and fastboot oem lock This will show it as Re-Locked, correct?

- Reboot

- Flash the stock RUU I got by placing it in the root of my external sd card and renaming it PH85IMG.zip and rebooting to bootloader. Which is Volume Down + Power? Can someone verify that?

- Then I set the security lock by doing "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" - This will change the bootloader to show locked, not re-locked, correct? I thought you had to have root to ADB?

At that point I'm back as if I took the phone out of the box for the first time? 4ext will be replaced with Stock Recovery? Thanks in advance. Like I said, I've searched, but there are many conflicting reports. :good:
[HTC Amaze 4G] freakasis:
In order to flash the factory RUU you need to be either locked or relocked. Then when you flash the factory RUU it should overwrite your hboot which will reset from "relocked" to "locked" then the writesecureflasg function will turn S-ON and you'll be factory.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
If you're s-off you don't need to lock or relock to flash a stock ruu.
[HTC Amaze 4G] freakasis:
Guess that does make sense, huh?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Minker17:
But everything looks OK then?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Minker17:
Update - Downloaded and renamed the RUU, rebooted into recovery and installed everything. Bootloader shows locked and I went ahead and did the ICS Update. Everything is back to factory and I'm ready to send it back. :)

Final Steps

Rick. Like you, I want to bring my T-Mobile HTC Amaze back to stock so that I can upgrade to ICS. The phone was bought on eBay with GB and a custom rom. I'd like to follow your steps but it had a lot of question marks and/or needed confirmation. Will you post exactly what you did?

Your steps seems a lot easier than what I've been researching. Is it really that simple? It makes sense. Everyone else uses hasoon2000 toolkit. Thanks for your time!
[HTC Amaze 4G] FutureAirways:
You don't need to go back to stock you just need to download the factory ics ruu or a rom that stock like. The hasoon toolkit is more of a guide to help you with the process try to read it an maybe you can rom your cell with a better one!
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheCount01:
S-off

Thanks for your reply. That makes sense, too. Plus, it'll save me a step. I'm new to Android and got a lot to learn. With the help of xda-developers, I've learned a lot these past three weeks.

From what I've been reading, it's apparent that I need to have S-off before I do any flashing. Like I mentioned, I bought the phone with a custom rom. I'm guessing if it has a custom rom, then it was S-off at one time. If so, I should be able to S-off easily. Since I didn't flash the phone, I'm not sure what program is installed. Your knowledge and experience will be greatly appreciated if you can tell me if I'm able to S-off easily and how. Whenever I go into HBOOT I see the following:

Hello all:

I'm a noob here so forgive me if I've missed something somewhere else.

I am on a stock EL29 rom and I'm rooted. I haven't done the ICS OTA update, but I would like to try ICS. The OTA notification keeps bugging the **** out of me. So, Here are my questions:

1) How do I flash ICS on a rooted GB EL29? Do I have to unroot first and then do the OTA update? If not, what and where are the correct procedures?

2) When I boot to CWM, it shows a Team Rouge logo and the menus aren't exactly the same as the menus I see in various demo videos. How can I get a "stock" CWM and flash it over the Team Rouge CWM? I downloaded ROM Manager and tried that, but the phone still boots to the Team rouge CWM.

3) Should I just forget flashing ICS altogether and just flash a new ROM/Theme on EL29 instead? If so...what's a great ROM to flash?

4) Any other suggestions y'all might have :)

I have Android version 2.3.6

Baseband version S.D710.10.S.EL29

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-SPH-D710.EL29-CL852097

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steve In Orlando:
Yes, I want ICS rooted. But if I do the one click, can I do it over top of a rooted EL29? I've also heard that I have to have a certain CWM to do the flash to ICS. Is that true?

I also want the ability to back the other way.

I'm just really worried about bricking the phone....I've read enough on here to be abundantly cautious....
