From wat i am gathering, u nandroided after the soft brick... u can try an advanced restore and pick just the data partiton. Are u restoring data to the exact same rom u backed it up from? If u r then the restored data should play nice with the system... however its not gauranteed... As far as wat data includes... it should basically put ur app back to the way it was when u last had it open on ur phone. this is how titanium does it nd i presume nadroid is the same but someone correct me otherwise. Worst case it doesn't work u have to just re-install all ur apps from scratch. Personally i use titanium to do my backups. Set it to auto back up apps nd data nd ur good. Hopefully this helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aquariex24:
I did exactly what you said and it worked perfectly! Everything is back to how it was before I bricked the phone. Thanks a lot man! Now off to go set up some automatic backups! ;)

I did what DrKaotica suggested, re-flashed the stock ROM then updated it to LG8, re-rooted, and then used advanced restore in CWM and chose "data restore." I'm going to TB to do what you said and set it for auto back ups. Thanks for helping out kind sir.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DrKaotica:
Nice I'm glad that worked.

Make a titanium backup widget for the action 'backup all user apps'.. and touch it from time to time:thumbup:

I don't know that you can schedule automatic app back ups with tb unless you get the pro version so this widget is an easy way to do it frequently with minimal effort

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamidbsb:
Hello everyone!

I bought a Galaxy S2, but it turns out to be a i9100G :crying: (Not enough good ROMS), so I'm going to sell it.

But I can't seem to find a i9100 on the market, all I find is the i9100p.

I know that i9100p= i9100i + NFC (which I don't really need).

What I want to know is there anyone here who own a i9100p and can flash any i9100 ROM and Kernel from " http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1529173 " without any problem.

I'm a bit afraid to lose money again :rolleyes:

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Yes, you can flash i9100 Roms, firmwares and custom kernels on i9100p without any single problem

I advise you to buy it.

[Desire HD General] ebod:
Hi All,

Ownership of my DHD didn't work out well Got it in Nov 2010 and by summer 2001 it suffered from a cracked LCD due to overheating by the pool. Then 12months later it cracked all round the edges of the LCD due to overheating round another holiday swimming pool.

I've now moved on to an S3, but thought I'd have a play by getting a new DHD screen.

I actually did successfully manage a screen change, but the only side effect is the camera no longer works :(

I felt I did an okay job ( though you can tell its been repaired ), also the battery seems to run flat easily as if the device is permanently active.

Has anyone got advice on how to diagnose whether the camera is dudd or maybe the unit just needs reflashing?

When I select the camera..the screen just goes blank, though the unit reacts to the home button and returns back to homepage.

Thx
[Desire HD General] Muikkuman:
Is it rooted? Are you running stock or a custom Rom?
[Desire HD General] ebod:
rooted with revolution 6.3.3 rom :cool:
[Desire HD General] leopardtag:
Run better battery stats. I think that when you changed the screen you've damaged something inside of DHD. Also a logcat will help...
[Desire HD General] ebod:
logcat enclosed. not sure what you mean about battery stats. Is there an app?
[Desire HD General] ebod:
Can anyone help on this?. It seems such a shame to throw it in the trashcan :)

Symptoms : i) camera not working , ii) excessive battery drainage

Could reflashing a rom fix it?
[Desire HD General] bananagranola:
Try it. Can't hurt.
[Desire HD General] ebod:
installed the CM_JELLYTIME rom and its looking good on the battery consumption front :D

...but still no camera :silly:

Are cameras know to fail/break/implode ? could it just be a poor connection ? Starting to think I stuck it back in wrong way round :eek:
[Desire HD General] Egrier:
I would pull the back off and check to see if the camera is seated good. I've replace screens on the Inspire 4g and you shouldn't have to remove the camera module to swap out the sceen.
[Desire HD General] -SmOgER:
It may sound obvious but did you actually tried taking photos (pressing capture on blank screen)? Does pictures then appear in gallery?

Happened to me once with wrong ROM/Kernel combination.

And the battery, I assume you havent charged your DHD for a while after the LCD got damaged, if the battery was empty all that time, this could have seriously altered battery health. After several complete charging circles (cleaning stats also wont' hurt) it should get a little better.
[Desire HD General] ebod:
battery much improved. Normally it was discharged within 6-7 hrs and often I had to carry a spare battery on days out.

camera definately not working

I'll have another try at taking off the cover and unplug / reconnect the camera

Where is the best place to download ROMS for the FPse emulator? Anyone know where?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jahjah440:
I think this is against the rules. Don't ask for warez or something..

It's really not hard to find roms. A simple Google search of play$tation+roms will take you far (and not get you banned)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyredneck:
I dont understand what you said about "without getting banned"? But I can find plenty of ROMS this is not an issue I was just kinda asking where was "the best place" to get them?

Basicly, I have only 2 Playstation ROMS on my phone both are working but when I download a ROM from somewhere else I cant seem get it to work. You have to join 2 files together using 7 zip or something like that, ring any bells? Im not technical with phone but I need some help with downloading ROMS and doing the necessary things to get them to work.

Do you have PS1 ROMS, where did you get them and what emulator are you using? Would really like to know:)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmog:

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Yes, it's illegal to download video game roms. Therefor, we are not allowed to tell you how to get them. You really didn't know downloading roms was illegal? It's piracy
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordBattleBeard:
jahjah440 already gave you the correct answer. Direct links to rom sites are forbidden.

Assuming the rom you downloaded or ripped yourself is one that you already legally own, then most come in a single file download. You need to extract the contents of the file you downloaded (usually .7z/.zip/.rar) with some free software like WinRAR. When you do this, you usually end up with 2 files, .bin/.cue or .img/.ccd. These are the two files you need to put on your sd card. The larger of the two files is the rom itself and the smaller of the two is the track information.

Sometimes the file you extract (from the .7z/.zip/.rar) will be a compressed file by the uploader. You know this by the file format, usually .bin.emc or img.emc. Google ecm100.zip and download it. Extract the contents of this archive somewhere. When the contents of emc100.zip is extracted, drag/drop your .bin.emc compressed file (or the like) onto the unecm.exe file. It will open up a command prompt window proceed to uncompress the .bin.emc file and leave you with an uncompressed .bin file to use. You can find it in the same directory as the .bin.emc file, which you no longer need.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyredneck:
Ah I see hehe. I figured it might be piracy but I would never of realized unlesd someone said. But it so easy to get ROMS off internet! But ok, I get it. And thanks for all the info you guys it helps me a lot because im new here.
[Asus Transformer TF700] CeeJayII:
I have a Sandisk class 4 32gb microSD card in my infinity. Whenever I try to transfer large file to it, be it either from computer or through a file manager program, my infinity freezes and reboots. The card is in exfat format. Around 300mb of a large file will be transferred, on average, before the freeze happens. Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm trying to transfer movies over that range from 2-10 gb. The only way I have been able to transfer is by inserting the SD card straight into the computer and bypassing the infinity completely. I'd like to be able to leave my SD inside the tablet at all times.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
I believe it's a bug in the current Asus firmware. Putting those large files on the MicroSD via your PC is probably the only way to do it reliably at this point.... Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. At least there is a workaround (doing via PC) until Asus fixes the firmware...
[Asus Transformer TF700] CeeJayII:
ASUS- Release it now, fix it later.

Thanks for the info, I will just keep up my current technique then. I liked my prime, I like my Infinity but ASUS needs some serious help when it comes to firmware and QC.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Couldn't agree more with that statement!! I'm not sure if they are just trying to do too much with too little resources or what, but they should be ashamed of the state of their QC (in terms of hardware and software). Until there is more true competition, I don't see it changing though. Hopefully, more competition happens sooner rather than later!

Let's face it, where else can you get full HD tablet with such a great docking station? :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Bnto:
Hope that JB have an improve about this... also transfer to usb have this issue
[Asus Transformer TF700] vtec2k7:
easy fix

Just format the microsd to Fat32 and it doesnt do that anymore. I tried ntfs and exfat, they both rebooted device when accessing. Until its fixed just format it to fat32 and no issues. To avoid the 4gb limit on files just transfer files over a FTP server setup on your network and it will bypass the 4gb limit on file size. Dont know why it does that but with ES file explorer it works perfectly fine. When using regular LAN tab data transfer is about 600KB, but with the ftp tab my pc transfers at about 2-3MB/sec.

Hi there, I am not sure if I am allowed to link you to another web-page, but i went to http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-verizon-galaxy-s3-sch-i535/

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rand78:
Getting rather upset regarding the face recognition function in the gallery. Works pretty well, but why does it remember every name I put in except for those with "Me" in them? Really wierd... All other names are ok, but if I tag a picture of myself and tag it as "Me", the next time I open the gallery, all pictures with me in them are set as unidentified again... If I am with another person in the picture it saves the tag for the other person but not for me...

What am I missing or is it because I am too ugly for the S3 to be remembered? All hints or ideas would be appreciated because I am really starting to wonder.

Thanks in advance!

Agreed, except with developers which are overcharging or are unethical (like EA).

Samsung would have paid for the rights to certain countries, therefore they will cover the areas which are most profitable.

[Galaxy S III General] kofiaa:
I can't pay extra because I have no way to pay, the credit card system over here is so expensive I can't afford to run one. If we had something like itunes gift cards for the market (I'm not saying Google play) I would have no problem in paying.

Specialized Game for Quadcore!!

no offense Samsung, but what a bunch of ********.

First, i already had Shadowgun installed from the market, instead of thinking it will update the version to be particularly tailored for my device, it installs another Shadowgun, so now i got 2 - difference is well u get to see that green smiley face "the app" to make the game load longer, and inside the game,...well no difference at all (still no water) except it took like 2 hours to install instead of 10mins of the original.

Now i know Krait processor inside my i747M is hyper-threaded, cause if its not, then this game

isn't

designed for quadcore!!

Oh well looks like Tegra 3 version is still the best, the good thing this game is now free for everybody with Galaxy!!

Cmon Samsung make some games that will show off full graphics capability of our devices!!!
