[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thegtfusion:
You are a very wise man! :D

today I realized how easy nexus phones are with rooting, returning it to the factory state and that ****..

my friend his galaxy s2 was in a bootloop, couldnt access cwm, needed to flash the stock firmware via odin.. and how the fck did i needed to know which firmware to choose. so many regions and ****... so I flashed the stock rom, needed to root again, flash cwm again... just a clear headache.

if this situation happened on a gnex, i could have fixed it in 5 minutes instead of 5 hours.

man you will love how easy things are on a NEXUS. just awesome! :good:

PS: ****= S h i t ;)

I rocked the stock software for a week, then unlocked, rooted and installed clockwork recovery via GNEX toolkit and loaded up BAMF Paradigm Jelly Bean. Couldn't be happier.

I'm so excited that I took the entire day off just for it.(plus to owning your own company.)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jimlarck:
Its an amazing phone. Recommended. It feels so good in your hand , the curve makes it a sexy phone.If coming from a phone with menu buttons you'll be HOW DO I USE THIS BABY!?. but you'll get used to it, in 1 day you'll be used to the Soft keys. Best part is ... CUSTOMIZABLE SOFT KEYS!!! WOOOOOO!!!

I recommend Team Bamf. Its stable and fast and nice. but if you are a person that doesn't care about bugs and just cares about the amount of features I recommend a Nightly. They aren't buggy but may have a few quirks here and there. Jellybro is the best CM10 rom out there in my opinion.

Don't be a dumbsh*t like me and hold the phone upside down the first time you get it. :P

Is there a way to make a full backup of all the installed apps on my phone? Because I want to test some ROM's and I already have much applications...

Thanks for support (if any:fingers-crossed:)

PS: New forum layout is awesome!
[G2 and Desire Z General] demkantor:
Use titanium backup or ROM toolbox for app back up, titanium is nicer in my opinion.

Also before testing any new Roms its a good idea to make a nandroid backup first (via recovery) so after trying some new ones you can always go back without having to reinstall/setup anything much
[G2 and Desire Z General] kamild_:
Thanks man! Free version of Titanum will be enough for this?
[G2 and Desire Z General] jinxtedium:
Titanium Backup is the best, but it has a high learning curve, and its not very intuitive to use. For newbs you can try My backup root https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rerware.android.MyBackupRoot&hl=en Theres a free version that does everything you need. saves text messages, calls, etc.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Deathmehr:
Like they said, Titanium Backup Pro. For me the best, I bought paid version and I'm happy about it. With the free version you can do pretty much the same, but while restoring apps on a fresh ROM, you are going to have to confirm installation of every single one application. Instead of batch installation in paid option.

Other than that, TBP lets you uninstall system apps which lightens your ROM.

Have fun with trying out ROMs, with every new one I'm feeling like I'm getting a new phone :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] gcalamaro:
Titanium Backup is the best: fast and easy (but remember your phone must be rooted)!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Haprog:
MyBackup Pro works fine, though I prefer Titanium Backup.

TB could be a bit easier to use though. Many confusing options and the backup/restore menu can be hard to find if you don't know where to look. You can access backup and restore options from the checkmark icon on the top right corner. And be sure you don't have any app filtering options enabled in TB if you want to backup everything.

Hope this helps a bit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Doomstick:
Should i do it? why or why not?

I want nexus for the zero shutter camera + jellybean and stock android. Tired of waiting around for jellybean for this device and ive tried all the roms, but unfortunately they have one glitch or another that just ruins it for me.

I might be trying to trade with someone on Xda (is this against ToS?) (bad idea?)

Any advice on how to do this securely/ not get screwed?

I dont really care for Spen and huge screen size, id never put either to the use they deserve, i just use my phone for communication/social networking. i used to browse reddit alot but when i discovered thumbnail viewer addon + reddit enhancement suite, that all changed. i cant even bring myself to read normal web pages anymore on my note, i just goto my laptop for reading.

I have never flashed a brick kernel. Does the galaxy nexus have a brick kernel problem? If so how to check the one im getting isnt potentially bad?

The phone itself does have small cosmetic damage. It hasnt affected the performance of the phone what so ever.

0 shutter camera was a feature back in android 4.0.2 after that google decided to use autofocus because the pics quality was horrible... jellybean aosp runs infinetely better on note than nexus... flash cm10.... you Will regret about loosing your screen and power.. i own a nexus(wich its in a box since i got my note)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Doomstick:
Ive tried all the different cm10 roms and im very thankful to the devs. However there are some glitches i cant get over like notification volume causes all volume to mute/requires manual adjustment < annoying as hell. My internal drive completely dissapearing. Soft reboots, hard reboots, memory leaks, etc. the list goes on. I guess i just want a nexus device so i can be rid of these issues.

As for the camera i was unaware zero shutter was bad. I never looked into it i just wanted to be able to takes pictures of my baby and she moves around alot. Figured zero shutter could make it to where i could catch some photos of her since she is fast.

EDIT: what rom would you suggest?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] msedek:
Get cm9 its stable with no glitches until cm10 its ready remember its Just a preview,samsung its about to release jb for note so cyanogenmod team Will be able to complete the rom

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] thekid1982:
i changed from galaxy nexus to galaxy note so i have some experience about NEXUS for u:

- quality of camera is too bad (note better)

- battery life is about 3.5 - 4 hours on screen (note better)

- in all roms from stock to cook is smoother than galaxy note (Nexus better)

- more roms than NOTE

- Especially ANDROID 4.1

I've got a LT15i and I want it to run faster. Some of my apps require root. I don't mind starting from fresh. I'm so confused as to what all these different things are: rooting, firmware, ROM, kernels, zwap and zram. What should I do to make my phone fast and have root?
[Xperia Arc General] ajgftw:
Ok, easiest way to learn is to search the forum and google for all those key words you listed. Once you know what they are and what they mean when you search the forum or read posts it all make allot more sense.

First learn. Then do. Then make some mistakes. Then learn again :)

Also don't forget to check out you tube for tutorials, very handy to see how it's done.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackdrag:
Hey guys,

In ROM manager when I go to flash recovery is says confirm device Transformer Prime... would flashing it brick my phone? My TF300 is very similar to a Transformer Prime but is it similar enough? I am kind of new at this stuff. I have a ported CWM Recovery flashed on manually but last time I checked it didn't support mounting the micro sd and the ROM manager app always complains that I must flash CWM Recovery first, even though I already have a ported version flashed.

And just out of curiosity, if I did flash the Recovery for the Transformer Prime and it didn't work would I be bricked?? I would think that if I broke my Recovery my operating system would be unaffected and I could manually flash a new recovery with fastboot anyway?

Thank you! I don't know that much yet but I do have the desire to learn ... starting college as a freshman this fall for Computer Science. I don't really know which track I want ... android development seems cool but I don't think it pays well to be an XDA android guru ;)

Gorilla Glass this, Gorilla Glass that. I kept hearing how amazing this glass is and how much it can handle.

This morning, I accidentally dropped my HTC One X around 3 feet off the ground onto concrete and smashed the display pretty bad. Unlike other smashed displays I've seen, this is broken all the way through. Small shards broke off and you can very clearly feel the cracks and feel like they're about to cut you if you press any harder! See attached files for shots of the phone.

View attachment 1295548 View attachment 1295549

So now my question: What's the process of fixing this? Is it just the top glass that needs to be replaced or do I need to replace the display too? Is there an official place I can order the parts or should I just get them from eBay?

I think that you made a bad choice buying an HOX.

You should try this: http://bit.ly/N4Nvic

Anyway... i never understood how one could drop a phone so expensive like these. I dont think its a gorilla glass fault, instead a bad handling or very very bad luck.

I had 6 different phones in all my life, and never dropped/slipped one out of my hand. I´m always very carefull with them.

Sorry for your loss dude. Hope you dont take offense for the upper joke. :p

You do know Gorilla Glass is scratch resistive, not crack proof?
[HTC One X] bootje359:
That is bad luck i think. Last wednesday, my phone felt out of my hand wen i was cycling. It smashed hard on the ground. But rarely no damage on the screen. Only the white cover was damaged. I have to thank god for that ;)

Good luck with your repair.

talking about scratches, my HOX screen has some scratches on it. Not some tiny ones but, the ones which you can see with your own eyes, no mag.glass needed.

I have HTC DZ and it has been in pocket with keys and everything else, and no scratches on it, but HOX is another story. Dont even know how i got the scratches on screen.

Anyone else had this problem with so called "gorilla glass"?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Brando81:
Hi everyone,

So I had been using the NexusHD Gingerbread NAND ROM for quite some time. About a month ago, my phone would only work if the call was on speaker phone. This was annoying, but I could deal with it. Today, I started having issues where the phone wouldn't connect to the network, and kept saying No Service. I switched over to Typhoon CyanogenMod 3.8.8, and I am still having the same problem with No Service.

I see that there is a hardware fix for the antenna, but I don't want to open the phone if that is not the issue. Where should I start in troubleshooting this to make sure that I don't go in circles? Thanks in advance!

Just an update in case any searches this thread later. I found out that my SIM card had gone bad. I was getting no connection at all and it was saying preferred network not available.

Hi. there. thanks for taking your time to read my thread. I'm really in need of help.

I bricked my phone (Incredible S) by flashing bad radio and managed to unbrick it by sending to service. (the guy used Jtag riffbox)

Now, my current state of my phone is, i'm stuck in the bootloader.

It's stated Security Warning

VIVO PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT- 1.13.0000

RADIO - 3805.06.03.03_M

EMMC-boot

Choosing Recovery also done nothing.

I tried to connect the phone thru USB but it's stated USB deviced not recognised.

What should i do? Now i'm currently redownload htc sync...

Please help me. Thanks
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Unlock the bootloader.
[HTC Incredible S] mrquidz:
Thanks for your reply. i'm currently cant access thru usb, or using adb and such.. even revolutionary. it's stuck at waiting for device...

any idea how to do it?
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
While bootlooping, press and hold all 3 buttons to reset the device. While its resetting, let go of the volume up button so you're only pressing volume down and power. The device should then enter bootloader.

Select fastboot from the menu and then you can enter the fastboot command

fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin

this is the same command you used to unlock your phone originally.

Edit: ignore all that, my apologies. Check your drivers.
[HTC Incredible S] mrquidz:
someone please help me... i really need help. i don't have much time left for now. please
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
With HBOOT 1.13, you can immediately go to the Revolutionary.io site and get S-Off. That site has all of the drivers and instructions you need. Please read the documentation page carefully and you should be good to go.

Once you have S-Off and custom recovery, you will be able to flash and custom ROM in the Development section.
[HTC Incredible S] mrquidz:
Thank you for your kind reply. However, since after the unbrick process, i was unable to connect it with my pc, and the revolutionary wont detect my device either.

It stuck in the bootloader..

I tried to flash RUU that match with the radio (2.30.504 something..) but no luck.

The CID is htc__038.

Tried to unlock the bootloader with htcdev but can't get the token because fastboot oem command can't be used.

:(
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
You wont be able to unlock because that hboot doesn't support it. Can I see a link to the ruu you tried?

Edit: If this service guy flashed your phone to hboot 1.13 with jtag, it's unlikely he used an Indian ruu because they are impossible to find. You need to contact him and find out what he actually did to your phone. What version software he used and did he change your Cid and why he thinks giving you a bootlooping phone is fixing it. Baseband and hboot version is not enough info to be able to help you.

Your PC does not recognize your phone. Do you have drivers installed? Have you entered fastboot mode?

If you're trying to flash ruu's from another region, do you know you need a goldcard? Do you have one? Do you have another phone (android or WP) that you can create a goldcard on?
