Hi,

I have a LG 2X (p999 version).

I rooted it per instructions + Backed Up using Titanium Backup.

I downloaded Cyanogenmod 7.2 nightly build 9-02-12 (latest as of today Sept 7th 2012).

I followed instructions using via the restore method and it flashed fine got 7.2 working on it but could not place a call + no old data showed calls sms, photos, etc.

So I did a ClockworkMod Recovery selected one of 2 backups dated back to march 2012 and did a restore.\

After the Restore the Phone Hangs on Boot at the LG with the bar below it like it's been hung for at least an hour.

I tried multiple battery resets (taking the battery out + rebooting) same result.

Is this phone bricked? ANY Idea on how to restore it? HELP Pls....:(

Update

ok...

[1] using Power + Down Volume got into ClockworkMod

[2] In the root directory saw a file called update.zip [from restore menu]

[3] selected this took me into a blue color version of ClockworkMod [v5.0.2.0] (seems odd that I had to do this to restore)

[4] now using this version of clockworkmod I can select with good md5 check previous back up from March but not the latest backup from today which is nowhere to be seen

[5] Phone is now restored to March stock settings froyo

[6] will try stable 7.2 next post to tell

Q: Any idea where my Titanium Backup from today went?
[LG Optimus 2x] G2Xfubar:
7.2 Stable Running No Data from Backups

[1] 7.2 Stable running fine

[2] No old data like call logs, sms, photos etc, how to restore just data?

[3] No Google Play Store - Found Goo Apps Downloading

[4] Any Idea how to retrieve Backups I made earlier today? I do not see it on ClockworkMod.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rayman96:
Maybe they are in different mounted storage eg. Emmc

Please go into G2X forum. No one like when someone flood section that is not interested in OP's phone. You won't get real help unless you will be right against xda rules and community.

Anyway your posts are very good and well wrote , and some people

Will help you in G2X section (that's your phone is)

Hi guys,

Anyone knows what app is that on the left S3?

Unlimited 4G data on T-Mobile network for accessing the web, streaming music and HD video, and downloading cool apps—as much as you want. No limits and no overages - 89.99$ a month.

Which for me is only about 5$ more. So it says its not compatible with "Smartphone Mobile Hotspot" Now I assume thats the built in stock option they lock down.. So question is, how does this effect our rooted ways of tethering and wifi hotspot making. Has anyone tried yet? Or have info about this? Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shrty4luv:
with that plan you will not be able to tether as for as i know,can they stop you?that i don't know.can they tell? not really sure,but in the past talking to tmobile they can basically tell how much you use is by there a difference in using your phone and tethering...when you tether,there more data usage....but i have the 10 gb data plan which include free tether,also if you get the 5gb plan,that also comes with free tethering...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mysticales:
Well I have the 2GB one atm for the cost (which is still unlimited, just slows down) but yea, orig.. they never had an app for tethering. Seems the S3 has a T-Mobile made app for tethering (Stock rom app) So Id assume using our normal root wifi tether apps.. we should be ok. Like you said, they might know the diff in the bandwidth, then again might not.. Netflix and MobiTV alone can take up alot. Not to mention Youtube in HD. I may have to try this and see what happens. Unless someone has the new plan already. I mean unlimited 4G.. True unlimited.. thats not bad at all.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Ayocuz:
I know I'm loving T-Mobile right now I'm streaming radio for a whole shift at work downloading roms and all kinds of WiFi stuff.and get this I was already was paying for the 5g data plan so when I called for them to switch me over to the unlimited 4g plan I actually saved $5 off my bill and cause I was throttled by the 5th of September it brought me right out of edge. And yes the t mobile hotspot app redirects any device connected to some T-Mobile web page. But we are good with hotspot app from the play store

Thanks,
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mysticales:
Thanks! Great to know. I think paying 10$ more a month for the "ability" (even if not used) for TRUE unlimited is worth it. Lock in and grandfather before they change their mind. Mobile Netflix + Hdmi = Win for one example of travel use.

Do have one stupid question. Anyone know on the Official hotspot app use. If all ports are enabled? Or is it still 80 and 8080 only? Thats the only thing I could see a different on. TMO hotspot might give you more ports access. However I am unsure.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] joshnichols189:
I highly doubt the T-Mobile hotspot is any better than something you can find in the market :) And if it's just hotspot through the settings, it's the exact same thing.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mysticales:
Tho if I am not mistaken... Wasnt most of the rooted wifi tether apps an "Ad-Hoc" connection vs "Infrastructure" mode? Granted computers and ios seem to handle that fine. However items like PSP, DS, and other consoles didnt like ad-hoc internet connections. Or is that different now? (I ask cause my tablet seems to host in infrastructure mode, while my G1 on its tether app did like an adhoc form)

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TauPan:
Hi.

After successfully flashing pershoot's 1. September release with working cameras, I got curious and reverted to my first backup, a freshly rooted 3.1 firmware, to see if I could get an OTA update for ICS (not in my country, could have figured that out by reading the forum).

And then the backup I made with Rom Manager failed to restore /data. And then I tried to erase data... Now only recovery worked on the phone.

To make things even worse, I decided to repartition the device, unfortunately with the pit file for 16/32GB... Now only Odin works and I can't find a PIT file for 64GB.

Could anyone with the same device as me please dump his PIT file, somehow? I think it may work with a patched version of heimdall. Last resort before I have to send my tablet in for repairs. (Maybe that won't help because of that corrupt chip I read about elsewhere.)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TauPan:
I finally managed to download a full stock firmware (hotfile... only managed to download it by calling wget on the url) and flashed via odin. Now I got stock recovery back and managed to reset the data partition, without hang. Looking good, so far. Cross your fingers my "internal sd card" isn't wiped.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TauPan:
Solved, sort of

Looks my /data/media is toast, but I don't need to send in the tab. Shouldn't have repartitioned, just flashing stock would have been the way out of my misery, I guess. Well, I didn't really have important data on the tab (nothing that I can't copy over again from its source), since it's only a toy.

Proper backups (i.e. off-device) are important, I guess

It seems to charge pretty fast from the A/C charger but plugging it in to your Pc seems to take FOREVER.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] byrds8:
Mine takes forever charging no matter what. Ive put it on the charger at 50% and it took 3hours ish to get back to 100%. Granted my phone could probably go two days with four hours of on screen time too.

I am betting it's because most of us have 1amp or 2.1 amp chargers available in the car. I, personally, still use the motorola 950mAh car charger, which speeds thru the charging process too.

USB still pumps out 500 mAh at best, always gonna be slow.

None of this has to do with the phone, btw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Slow charging for me. But its random. Sometimes its decently quick but other times it takes forever to charge. Fastest phone to charge for me was the OG droid.

I've noticed that when its plugged into the wall charger, its super fast, computer though is utterly slow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elite49:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ekklesiaillusion:
There is a thing in the charging port that only the samsung charger activated that allows charing upwards of 1000 when using normal micro usb only does 300.

If you download imosyens leankernal he developed it into the kernal that you go to terminal editor and put "ffc"and charger will go as fast as thr samsung one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LGeX:
Lol I'm the opposite. Coming from a Galaxy Nexus this phone charges much slower. Galaxy Nexus would be fully charged in maybe an hour and a half. With the GS3 it's closer to 3 hours for a full charge. Hear it's the low-power brick that comes with it though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mdt73:
Yep. For example, the Motorola SPN5400A will charge the S3 in about 1\2 to 1\3 the time it would take if plugged into a USB port. I honestly believe it's because it has quality internal circuitry. Hell, at .95 mAh it charges quicker than most 2.1mAh chargers. Again, has nothing to do with the phones, it's the chargers that come with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
mine charges pretty quick as well. best phone ive had hands down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sprintuser1977:
3 hrs seems off. I think I could wire mine to my electric razor and charge it faster

From the I-killer
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bbolton_98:
Just for info, my wireless energizer pad and Verizon wireless door charge faster than the factory charger. And my factory charger will charge between 1.5 and 2 hours from 3% or 4%.

If you are taking over 2 hours I would check the battery and make sure it isn't swollen or something wrong with it. As far as usb most ports are "as stated above" not going to supply juice fast enough to charge quickly.

And it's probably worth seeing if something is on thats sucking power, Bluetooth, gps, facebook, anything that sync's alot. And using almost as much power as the usb is putting out.

Yup that's the CMAS thing. Annoying as heck, especially when you get them at like 4 in the morning -__- I was getting them constantly during Isaac, and on viperrez the emergency alerts menu is finicky so you have to open and close it a lot for anything to show up to disable it.

I was just giving you guys a hard time its all good. I like the feature. One night when having bad weather I got an alert of a tornado warning. Its pretty cool for those of use who have weather I just got up and turned on the TV to see what was up.

Oh I'm sure it's great if you actually get weather. I was getting severe thunderstorm watches every day for two weeks. It hasn't rained here in almost 4 months. Seriously, we literally don't get weather here, it's ridiculous... I miss snow.

Viewpad 7E

I purchased a Viewpad 7e that had to Rom. I managed to installed the Viewsonic rom from the sd card but I cannot install anything other rom or recovery.

I saw on this site, for Viewpad 7, that you could copy Flash_image and CWrecovery.img to the sd card and use Terminal emulator to install the CW recovery but it doesn't work "erro scanning partition: no such file or directory".

Does anyone have an idea how to flash a better recovery or a rom?
[Viewsonic ViewPad 7 & Variants] modelman1968:
Recovery

Flashed the CW Recovery via Rom Manager, choosing the Mi700 option but it wouldn't work when I tried to reboot into recovery. I just got a message "enter recovery mode". Went down the root (excuse the pun) of trying to install a recovery from SD card via Terminal emulator but got nowhere. In the end, and out of desperation I flashed one of the Hauwei recovery roms via Rom Manager and was suprised when it worked.

Give that a try?

Small Viewpad 7 issue

Hi there user!

im having small problems with my viewpad 7.

Q:What do i have?

A: A viewpad 7, ( Android 2.2.2) dated: 2010-12-04

Q:What do i want?

A: well basically im trying do upgrade android 2.2.2. to atleast 2.3.7. so i can run some games from the market that it wont play now. ( yes my girlfriend wants to play candy crush but its not compatible)

Qwhat have i already done & Tried?

A: i have followed a guide into rooting my device, this worked like a charm ( sorry link not working)

After that i went one to Flashing ClockworkMod Recovery.

i followed a guide from Theunlockr. com

but before i got there i had to install Android SDK, no problems there whatsoever.

so after i had done all that i downloaded the necessary software ( Flash_image and Cwrecovery )

Usb debugging mode was on and i openend USB Storage to cope/paste the files into root of SDCard(FAT)

i was ready to start Flashing ClockworkMod Recovery on the Viewpad 7

i started by opening C:\android-sdk\platform-tools and shift-rightclick to open command prompt

in there i did the following:

1- i entered ADB by typing in adb shell and hit enter.

2- I typed in su to gain superuser access. ( had to accept on the viewpad 7)

3- after that i typed in cat /proc/mtd

4- than i typed cat /dev/mtd/mtd3 > /sdcard/recovery.img to back everything up, no errors whatsoever

5- after that i had to start flashing with this command:

chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image

flash_image recovery /sdcard/cwrecovery.imgchmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image

strangly it have me an error: Unable to chmod /system/bin/flash_image: No such file or directory.

after that i got stuck, and i have tried a few things but i cant get it to work. here is a copy of my command promt:

C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell

$ su

su

# cat /proc/mtd

cat /proc/mtd
