You can still flash the stock jb as per my instructions. It's just that rooting made no difference - it was a wasted step.

And as I said before, you don't have to learn the commands, as I've written them out for you. You just need to find out how to save the files and open a terminal in the same folder, which doesn't seem like a difficult thing to do. Google should be able to tell you how to open a terminal in a specific folder. Or, as I mention before, save the files in the folder which you already have your terminal open.

The whole purpose of my guide was to learn -- and you are have a more difficult time than others because you have taken shortcuts (I.e. 1-click methods) in the past.

I agree, not everyone has that kind of time: I have 3 kids (with everything that comes along with that), work a high-stress, 70 hour a week job, and no IT/tech/linux/android background, but I managed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
I didnt find how to move the terminal command subject and i did try many different pages via google and many different ways of phrasing the query. So i just dumped all the files onto the desktop as that was where terminal seemed to be referringand it seems to be working. im waiting for the final reboot - its taking a long time. :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I think you got it! The first boot will take significantly longer than usually.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
Still waiting. should it take 15 minutes plus?? :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
40 minutes. Stuck on the black screen with google and the lock at the bottom?

take it this is bad news.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
Yes. Did you flash all the stuff you need to flash? Again, see efrant's guide. Do not skip steps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Not a big deal. Go back into fastboot mode and reflash the boot, system and userdata images. Then erase cache again, and rebbot. It happens sometimes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
its screwed. wont boot past the black goggle screen. what do i do now. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AshtonTS:
do what efrant said :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
Okay thanks mate, i didnt see this last night - will try when i get home. No doubt will have some more questions. Urghhh. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
Guys, please a little more help....I have gone through fastboot again and managed to successfully get JB started. about 5 minutes in i started downloading some apps and the screen started to flicker, violently before shutting off. what can i do now? have i installed something incorrect?

when i restart i cant get passed the google screen again although this time the logo quickly fragments and goes crazy before shutting off. jeeeez. i wish i hadnt started this....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That is strange and I have never seen that.

Were you trying to restore an app from a backup?

When you boot into fastboot mode, does your phone show that you are on the LC03 bootloader and the XXLF1 radio?

In any case, I would suggest, re-flashing the images (including the bootloader and radio) one more time. I would not restore any apps from a backup unless you know for sure that they are compatible with JB -- some have been known to bootloop your device. Download the apps from the Play Store only.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
It was facebook from the play store! surely that shouldnt be a problem? it wasnt from a back up....

yes primeLC03 and XXLF1 baseband....

I'll go again - but this will be third time.....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
the phone is now cutting out of fastboot mode mid way through the process and the terminal command just says 'waiting for device' the screen goes off and the white battery icon temporarily keeps appearing and going away again.

im sure it shouldnt behave like this anyway - but the phone was dead flat when i plugged it into the computer to start this. should i try and plug into an external charger for 15 minutes to build some power?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Try it.

By the way, it is not usually a good idea to flash images when your battery has no charge.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
ill give it 15 minutes charge and start from scratch. Can i do that even though the last run through was curtailed half way when it cut out of fastboot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
this is bad right? :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
Efrant, i have got going again. sadly, the badly doesnt seem to want to charge. It is stuck on 4% occasionally drops to 3% and back up. Im going to leave it charging all night as im off to bed. but any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Do you think its wise that i unroot now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Try cleaning the USB port on your GNex. Sometimes dust and dirt get in there and prevent if from charging. Also, charge it from an AC outlet, not your PC.

Root has nothing to do with charging (as long as you didn't flash some sort of custom kernel like franco or whatever).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigdave78:
No did nothing, so will leave as is - its taken some more juice onbaord in the last few minutes so see how we go in the moring. :good:

Hi,

I'm looking for app to record incoming and outgoing calls :)

I have ICS Mimicry 1.4.0 on my Desire Z.

Can you help me? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] IsmailOmer:
Any random recording should record your call when on. Either use the stock recorder or purchase Easy Recorder Pro from the market. Oh, and there is a free version ;). Leave a thanks if you found this useful.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] jacakk:
I'm looking for something free and fully functional. It would be awesome if it could use advantage of rooted device (using kernel?).

I flashed mkalter's TAJB V 7.1 ROM and it asked me for password to decrypt storage. what does that mean? :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erpurohit:
I believe you flashed it over GB (2.3.6)... dont worry... just go back to recovery and wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and flash the rom again.

It wont ask you the password again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hussam91:
Thanks man. I have lost my imei number though... it shows 004999... any fix for that?

I have got the efs backup files just in case u need to know
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erpurohit:
Just copy them to efs folder and you will be all set...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlwaysDroid:
1. Delete your efs folder with root explorer

2. Reboot

3. Copy imei folder and nv_data.bin to /efs. Override if necessary.

4. Delete nv_data.bin.md5

5. Reboot

6. Profit
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Helloworld294:
Omg people to avoid losing your imei first from GB (if you're coming from it) flash CM9 from their site, and THEN flash any jellybean ROM! No problems will appear there.

DONT JUMP FROM GB TO JB -_-

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DracoManX69:
Hi, I was wondering if there were any roms/mods for the arc that are exactly like the vanilla ICS found on google devices

without the SE overly or any other oem crap

Even better would be if there was a vanilla ICS that included features such as the bravia engine, xLoud, Exmore R, etc

I do have my phone looking like vanilla ics at the moment, but that's through the use of Launcher Pro, custom icons, and other mods

all of which obviously take up system resources

Would like to have a good ICS experience without having to spend 3 days customizing my phone

Thanks:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InsaneDP:
CM9?

It doesn't have the Bravia Engine or xLoud.

AFAIK, Exmor R is just the type of sensor used on the phone, it's not anything firmware specific.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DracoManX69:
Yeah maybe, I've though about that before, however I could vever really get it all working 100%

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
Yeah its cool but it sucks up a lot of space on your internal memory. Its in the Samsung folder.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] DRVB:
Well its showing as only a 164 Mb mkv file on mine ...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] uncreativeprofessional:
The stock screensaver app, which is just the ~6 minute promotional video for the Note 10.1, is 69.82 MB -- no harm is scrapping that too, right?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] demandarin:
thats nothing to be concerned about. LOL if it was 500mb-1gb then yeah.

Plus I like that helicopter demo. great showcase of excellent 720p display.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
Can't imagine there is.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] demandarin:
if its included as part of system files or apps, deleting it could likely cause future ota update to fail.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] donec:
Can you explain how such a thing could cause such a failure?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] EmerikL:
Its looking to update something that isn't there. When it doesn't find it, the update doesn't know what to do, so it fails.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
argh really? I deleted a couple of apps that came with it like the nook thing and some other thing. is there an easy way to put back the stock apps?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] crystalstylez:
He is correct about this. If you delete or remove anything system wise make sure you have a back up copy. Come time for an update and that file is not there, it will most likely fail. Make sure you take note of the file permissions also.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Mickeylittle:
This was really simple to delete but what a mistake as I actually want to run it from time to time. If no one can give me a way to download it I will be forced to reset my device as new.

I don't really want to do this but I will if necessary. Live and learn.:rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] troed:
SYSTEM Updates do not look after apps present BUT ONLY THE DEVICE SPECIFIC SERIAL NUMBER AND VERSION NUMBER !

System updates do NOT look after specific apps to be present or not.

After major complete updates all system apps disabled are reinstalled and have to be deactivated again .
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] agzela:
I second that e-motion!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] se1988:
Hard (factory) reset won't bring any files back. An update however, or a reflash of original ROM will do the trick.

To all saying that removing system files will fail OTA: Stop posting stuff you know nothing about. It's better to shut up rather than guessing.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Mickeylittle:
So if I hit reset and wipe everything it won't restore the tablet like it was when I got it out of the box? You're kidding right! Every other tablet / phone I've ever owned will do so.

I guess I'll just have to back up some data to test this out.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] crystalstylez:
This has been a proven case with the transformer series. So I would say we know nothing about. We are just stating that it could. I don't believe anyone stated that it would for sure.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] se1988:
It will restore the tablet, but it won't magically restore files you've deleted.

---------- Post added at 11:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 PM ----------

ASUS and Samsung are two entirely different setups.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] crystalstylez:
of course I know that as I have the Galaxy Series Phone (II and III). Isn't it just insight and we just nearly stated that it may be an issue. Some insight is better than none. There is plenty of wrong information given around here. The whole point of the community is to try and help out..
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] EmerikL:
Had the same thing happen with the rezound. If the bloatware was removed it failed to update. If it didn't have the stock recovery it failed to update. Again differences between OEMs as has been stated with Asus having done the something.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] vypor87:
Deleting the screensaver app should not cause the ota to fail. Otherwise Samsung wouldn't allow that action to be performed so easily without root. Put it this way... if you can go into manage apps and click uninstall chances are it's not system critical.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] demandarin:
I'd say let them find out the hard way...lol. this has happened on moto devices, Asus devices, and now someone posted it has happened on their other device before. Its more dependent on what you're exactly deleting that comes with stock setup. The chances of a pic or screensaver causing issue is very slim but a system/stock/bloatware app is a different story. I've seen plenty people come in like oh it won't due anything. Then next thing you know they come crying to the forums talking about their update failed. Either from deleting apps or changing build.prop file. Too many instances to count. If you know exactly what you doing, you likely could avoid the failed OTA.

Curiosity killed the cat ;) LoL

Just dont go deleting any and everything. Know what you doing and what the possible consequence could be as a result of THaT action. Research

Also, even if OTA update fails, you could always manually update which will bypass any checks like OTA does.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Mickeylittle:
Sorry but the Samsung scrensaver is a system file so like i thought a simple reset and its back!:D

Try it for yourself if you're in doubt.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] vypor87:
Someone please tell me why we give a care about this screen saver app?! Seems so ridiculous the amount of talk about it. Uninstall via android app manager and FORGET ABOUT IT. You won't fail any OTAs unless you actually root and forcefully uninstall other Samsung apps that you really should only need to disable in android app manager. Sheesh...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Mickeylittle:
Pardon me for wasting your time. I deleted the app and I simply wanted it back end of story! I just responded back to clarify that resetting the tablet does indeed reinstall the app. Just remember that just as things on my top 10 are probably things that you could careless about the same can probably be said about your top 10 as well. So maybe practice a little curtosy or just stay away from threads you consider useless.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] vypor87:
Sorry my barking was not directed at your need or want for the app. It was merely aimed towards the debate of people talking about failing OTAs about it. I do not intend to be rude and I am sorry for coming across that way.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Mickeylittle:
And I as well. My basic point was also aimed at the people thinking that I had lost my file forever. LOL!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] gwbard:
A factory-reset really does not restore deleted files.

My guess is you didn't delete it, you disabled it -- big difference.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Mickeylittle:
I'm tech savvy. It was totally deleted. If you go to settings and application manager you will see that disable option but only a uninstall option. And before I did a reset i looked through the file manager and it was gone.

But somebody else delete the screensaver app and it verify that it is really gone and bring it back with a reset. Then maybe you'll recognize the power of the reset.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] se1988:
Well, then... You must be right sir...

LOL

After successful repair of my device, including the new motherboard with live USB port, returned to my experiments.

Thus it looks like /etc/ppp/ip-up, or some its daughter scripts, is not executed as it should. Situation is the same for 4.0.7, 4.0.6, and even 3.2.80 - which definitely did work! And for any of the 4 operators available at my location.

If this were a software problem, it could be fixed by reflashing. If it were a hardware problem, then the modem would not connect at all. Any more ideas? Does anyone know where to look for logs, or how to enable PPP logging and debug?
[Gen9 Android Development] trevd:
Hi.

It's looks like your route has not been set up properly, I faced this or something similar while playing around the Huawei Stuff, It turned out that the gateway property net.ppp1.gw needed to be set to the remote ip.

I'll power up my archos and have a look for you, It's completely drained at the minute so it takes a while to come back to life.. :)

In the mean time you can add the following to /etc/ppp/peers/datakey

debug
dump
kdebug 8

this will give a more verbose output on the logcat, I also like to use logcat with the following switches ( basically outputting all logs )

-b system -b main -b radio -b events

If you're still running into problems I'll post my properties and an example logcat if you want

Hope that helps

[Gen9 Android Development] iourine:
Thnx trevd,

the fact is that there are at least 3 opertaions to be done: defaultroute, resolv.conf, and some system-wide flag stating "internet connection present". Thus I suspect the entire ip-up script is not executed; in my case it is simply missing. Please could you look

ls -la /etc/ppp

both with the 3G connection on and off. No need to hurry, I'm unlikely to continue in the nearest days.
