[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albundy2010:
Lets just start with your original stupid statement.

"HTC going nexus isn't there style, HTC love their bloatware too much an Samsung make better chips, that's why apple don't use HTC to manufacturer for them"

What in the world does HTC's software/bloatware have to do with google picking them to provide the hardware? Yeah thats right, nothing. And not their style? So now google has a style eh. Nonsense. They have used htc before. More times then samsung but that doesnt matter. They have no style. Even if they did the reason you gave was moronic.

Already covered the bloatware part so lets just skip on to the chips. Is the chip in your gnex is a samsung chip? No. Google actually went with the omap in this phone instead of using the samsung chip in the s2. Now the next part. Why doesnt apple use HTC to make chips? Are you really that stupid? HTC does not make a SoC. HTC does not even design the chips and have somebody else make them. HTC has no fabs. Why doesnt apple use them to manufacturer them? Fail.

Lets go a little deeper into your first point again. The bloatware. So I guess google just loved touchwiz bloat on the galaxy s one when they decided to let sammy make the nexus s. I am sure they loved that flat out awful UI. The cartoonish looking iOS rip off that it was. I am sure they loved that stupid UI so much they tried to tell them to knock that crap off as we found out in the trial. I am sure they choose the galaxy s one to base the nexus s off because they just loved touchwiz so much. The UI that everybody hated and couldnt stand. The one that samsung didnt change much even after google warning them. The one that just straight up did rip off apples look with the icons and the home button. The UI that was the most hated by the community in the history of android. Yet google choose them for two phones in a row. Why? Because none of that garbage matters on a nexus or a google experience device. No sense/touchwiz/motoblur crap on any of the previous pure google devices.

I dont even feel like addressing any of your stupid comments after the first one I quoted in this reply. The original one alone was monumentally stupid. Do I need to further chew you new one and embarrass you some more by replying to your other dumb posts? I think you should just shut your mouth you fool. Why doesnt apple use HTC to make their chips? smh....

Just goes to show apple still rule, android is just full of knockoffs, too many handsets an brands that none in particulour stand out, thanks everyone for showing how bad android really is, wow it took bickering over Samsung an HTC to show how confused android really is, no android phone manufacturer will make a news headline because their sh1t is just too sparse an inconsistent an poor software support for each device or build that varies out of control.

Samsung is no.1 till now and samsung is only brand who can beat apple so i will go with samsung nexus :) GOOD BYE HTC !

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
At least with apple your getting a flagship phone every time an immediate updates even on older devices, an there is no better smartphone screen than retina display ,itunes music ,appstore is the biggest an best app market, makes nexus range look weak, I regret ever getting a gnex an should have waited on iPhone 5.Android is just sh1t even on a pure Google phone like the nexus that still receives updates based on the carrier, country an build model of gnex ffs, you have to unlock boot loader an flash yakju just to get updates an I can't even purchase an listen to music on it because stupid google music isn't available anywhere but the US, fu#k you google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jyveafk:
Hopefully rumour is true. G1 was my first phone, loved it. Nexus one, still in use. Tried a HTC One S, expecting it to be the spiritual successor to the NexusOne, but... build quality wasn't /quite/ as good, the awful sense skin drove me nutty, and, getting it the first day, there was some odd issues (flicker at some light settings (odd for that type of display I thought), and noticeable jerkiness in games (fixed in one of the earlier patches). Still, the camera was impressive, speed (when not in games) was great, with only better things to come if it gets JB I'm sure, but that's the problem isn't it? So many phones aren't going to get updated.

If HTC DO release a Nexus device, with lots of updates to come, with a decent built quality, it's probably the Nexus device I'll go for (and hope CM is released quickly).

[Motorola Droid RAZR] terminaloutlaw:
I have a Droid RAZR that I've ran several roms on.

I am currently on .173 stock rooted. I've unrooted in the past and tried to take on the .181 OTA but it will

not

install the update. I take from other threads is due to me deleting certain system files I've seen as bloatware?

I am wanting to get to ICS then load Simplex 1.2.

How would you go about getting to ICS if your phone was stuck on .173 and wouldn't willingly update?

I know I can force it but am unsure if I am safe doing so or not..

Thanks for any help.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Fracta1:
From what I can tell, you're either going to have to restore those system files or use RSDLite to flash it back to stock

Is there a way to flash a stock ROM via CWM, without using odin?

Missing apps after Flashing my first rom :)

Hi

I did everything I was supposed to do, used CWM manually to wipe data/factory, went from jellybean 4.11 to CNA 3.6 and chose the gapps package without picassa + camera extras.

I used TBackup Pro (apps and data) and did a nandroid and saved my complete Sd card contents to my pc for safekeeping. Then I did the flashing

I thought gapps had ALL the google apps included...

Some apps did not reinstall like Google Play (music player) which was a system app and the play store says it isnt available in my country (canada). I never had the cloud feature as far as I know in the official JB rom, just the music player.

Other system type apps were probably different versions ie email client, clock, gallery, stock browser, currents, android keyboard, exchange services...anyway all of those have a line through them in TBackup.

Also,, I thought all my desktop layout/folders would be preserved like it did once before when I unlocked bootloader and rooted.

So... looking at Tbackup in the restore section it has restore all system data 73 instances..is that the same as app data? Is this the data/settings I restore for the apps?

I thought all my settings and stuff would/could be preserved, I even tried to pull it out of the nandroid via Tbackup.. sat there for an hour trying to restore 1 app (email) while the busy indicator kept swirling.

Seems like backing up apps is redundant as my google account restores them. I want the data /saved settings etc.

What am I missing here?..obviously it didnt go like the videos i watched.

And HOW the heck do I get the stock google music player back onto this install?

BTW this is a nice rom. no problems so far and very customizeable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Use something like Market Enabler to spoof a U.S. carrier, and then download it.

As for your other issues, you need to read up on Titanium Backup.

1) You shouldn't restore system apps/data across different ROM versions;

2) You should only restore user app data when the app is the same version;

3) Yes, you are correct, you do not need to restore apps if you are going to download them from the Play Store.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wcoaster:
Thx Efrant...well I was able to find and download 3 different versions of it and place on my sdcard, It launched but would not install...even when I was completely offline. I read in one thread where someone suggested putting it in /system/apps but I never saw any results in that thread regarding the suggestion.

I saw a few proxy type apps which seemed only to work with a browser.

I found market enabler...loaded it with T-Mobile info..cleared my play store cache, and was able to download...but got an unknown error -24 during install.

any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Market enabler is found here: http://code.google.com/p/market-enabler/

I use it and it works just fine.
[HTC One X] randyok@:
Hello.

First sorry for my English so poor, it happens that my favorite language is not really speak Spanish. Anyway, that's beside the point.

I've always used Android Revolution HD, which is an amazing rom, but would like to try the CoreDroid v4.4 seeing ONE X has a very attractive graphical interface, and I wonder if I can just flash this rom without losing my applications, my games (and saved games) because when I change from one version of Android Revolution to a newer, I have no change in what I have on the phone.

Can I normally install without thorough cleaning (super wipe)?

Thanks in advance. Greetings from Dominican Republic :P excellent forum!!
[HTC One X] tomascus:
It's highly recommended to do a full wipe before installing a new ROM - just make sure to backup everything you need before you do so. You can try installing it without a full wipe, but you'll have a greater chance of running into complications that way. All user files in your sdcard will not be touched during a super wipe.
[HTC One X] randyok@:
Thanks for responding. What application do you recommend to do the backup? I have Titanium Backup, that's okay?
[HTC One X] tomascus:
Yeah, use that to backup your user applications and use 'Go Backup Pro' to backup contacts, call logs etc.

Make sure to make a nanodroid backup just in case something goes wrong or you want to go back to ARHD.
[HTC One X] randyok@:
Sorry if I bother you, but I do not know how to do that the backup nanodroid, hehe
[HTC One X] BenPope:
From the recovery, i.e., clockworkmod.
[HTC One X] randyok@:
I tried to make a backup nanodroid having free 2gb sd card in my and in the process he told me he did not have enough space, I suppose it's very heavy. In which case you would use a backup nanodroid? And which option should I choose in Titanium Backup? Backup all user app + system data?
[HTC One X] TheJoker79:
A nandroid backup is a full system backup: besides the andriod system itself it includes all your setting and all your apps (so: ARDH, setting and apps).

With a nandroid backup its very easy to go back to what you had; just restore the nandroid backup from within the recovery and your phone is back to exactly the way it was.

The only downside of a nandroid backup is the size, but then again, it needs to be because it includes everything!

I would recommend making some extra space on your phone and making the nandroid backup. This way, if Coredroid doesn't work for you, its very easy to go back to your ARHD.

Please keep in mind that since there is no s-off it is always neccesary to flash the right boot.img before going to another ROM or before going back!

Since you'll be using Titanium Backup switching ROMs it doesn't make sense to backup system data; big change there are some differences between system data (settings and stuff) for different ROMs. I would just backup all user apps and try to restore them in Coredroid.
[HTC One X] randyok@:
Wow, thank you very much for this comprehensive information. I'll make a nanodroid backup and a backup of my applications with Titanium Backup to restore in Coredroid, and if not what I expected, just use the nanodroid backup to return to ARHD. I'll be back to tell you how I was. Thank you!
[HTC One X] TheJoker79:
No problem, glad to help :)

Just don't forget u also need to flash the boot.img before restoring the nandroid backup.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
just a heads up before you go and restore those apps: DONT DO IT!!!!!!!!

backing up is all good, i guess for the same rom at least. 9 times out of 10 restoring a backup, especially on the different rom, will completely bugger up the rom, and it will run like complete crap

just install the apps manually trust me - was rooting and custom romming my friends sensation a while ago, and he restored a backup, and it broke, so we had to wipe and reinstall the rom again to get it working properly

EDIT: definitely make the nandroid backup though.
[HTC One X] tomascus:
Probably will bugger up the ROM if you try restore system apps. Didn't have any problems restoring all my user apps.
[HTC One X] randyok@:
Hehehehe well my friends... I flash Coredroid and restore all applications including system apps from Titanium Backup. Everything is working perfectly. :D
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
that's good to hear - enjoy :)
[HTC One X] TheJoker79:
Great news, enjoy!

Be sure leave a reply in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1861399 to share your experiences with Coredroid.

I'm always curious for experiences with other roms and I'm sure other are too :laugh:
[HTC One X] randyok@:
Well my friends, but I think a good rom, used just kept only until Android Revolution HD JellyBean reached (only missing a few days). Anyway thanks for your help, I learned a lot including how to backup properly.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TLRtheory:
I'm just not having a lucky day with my Xperia Play.

My system already crashed, leaving a lot of my save data locked in a CWM backup I couldn't break into... and now I've even lost that. So I'm pretty much starting all over with my Xperia Play... and I thought "What better a time than now to give Link2SD a shot?"

Major things that had me interested in this were those times where bastards like Gameloft or Dvide Arts decided it was a good idea to suck 20+MB off our devices in the form of /data/data so that we couldn't get it off our card. And now that I finally went through all the trouble minitool partitions and such... it seems I'm not able to move the application data to that second SD partition.

Am I doing something wrong? I'd really love to just be able to go install crazy without ever having to worry about space again... but if Link2SD can only move the bulk of installation without data, it's just another pointless app to me.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Link2SD doesn't link an app's data, only the apk itself, the lib files, and the dalvik caches
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TLRtheory:
Okay, I made a very, very wrong assertion about Link2SD earlier.

Indeed, it does not move SD data... but moving all those little accumulations of 356KB-5MB to the SD for my other installs is AMAZING. I do still wish I could give Gameloft the middle finger by sending their shady /data/data consumption trickery to the SD, but this is letting me stockpile on apps like nobody's business.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
How would you moved things that you have linked to the second partition on a new SD card?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TLRtheory:
Not sure, but that is a damn fine question as I'm thinking about moving up from 32GB to 64GB.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Yeah, I've just ordered my 64GB. The only thing I can think of is either trying to access the files in the second partition from the computer (then try copy and paste) or removing the link of all the apps and then relinking them with the new micro SD card
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Nandroid backups take a backup of the sd-ext partition, which can be restored to a new SD card as long as the new card is partitioned as well
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Nandroid backup?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TLRtheory:
I'm unfamiliar with that terminology as well, but I do see that the partitioning tool I used (Minitool) has some very clear cut options to clone and copy, given that the new flash drive has unallocated space, so it should be a pretty easy process.

...if I'm right, all we'd have to do is delete the default partition on the 64GB, copy the two SD partitions from the 32GB to the 64GB and (obviously) extend them to take advantage of the larger card.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
A nandroid backup is the backup ClockworkMod Recovery takes. Can you access recovery?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Yeah I can, where do you back up from there?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Go into recovery, select "backup and restore", then "backup". I would've thought it was self explanatory. When restoring the sd-ext data, choose advanced restore so you can restore that specific sd-ext data without overwriting any other partitions such as /data or /system
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Does that backup the second partition on the SD card as well though? I'm assuming you go into advanced restore to restore it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
The second partition? That IS sd-ext. The MicroSD card's first partition doesn't get backed up, as it doesn't need to be
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Do you restore it in advanced restore?

Edit: seen your above post now. No need to answer this

How do you delete a backup?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
You delete a backup by going into the SD card, navigating to /clockworkmod/backup/ then selecting the backup's folder and deleting it

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mackie011:
I cannot get JB still. I bought the phone from rogers and just use it on Telus.

Always when I try it gets stuck on bootloop.

Could I just borrow somebodies sim from rogers or fido and let them get the OTA?

not really sure how to get JB. Nothing has worked so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
The OTA has absolutely nothing to do with what SIM you have in your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mackie011:
then howcome it won't let me update my phone?

I've tried roms, I've tried stock.

Not sure what's holding me back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If the OTA update bootloops your

stock

phone, you've likely changed something (knowingly or unknowingly) that's causing a conflict when the update applies. Also, you haven't indicated how you're trying to update.

What do you mean you've tried ROMs? That'll have nothing to do with OTA updates. Custom ROMs are a completely different path.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mackie011:
Okay so at first I had paranoid android running fine and I had AOKP.

When JB was released I tried to just try a new rom but it would always go to the boot screen and just sit there forever.

I gave up and decided to factory reset everything completely and just went back to stock to try to get the over the air update. It constantly pops up, every 5 minutes. Update available! This has been happening for a long time I just decided I will use 4.0.4 for now because I couldn't figure out what I did wrong or what I was missing.

And that is pretty much where I am at right now.

Not really sure how to make it work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Likely didn't wipe properly, chose the wrong ROM, or tried to switch between ROM makers unsuccessfully.

When you flashed back to stock it didn't flash properly, or missed part (like recovery, bootloader or radio), so the OTA won't install properly.

If you want stock 4.1.1, just flash it completely. Stop trying to mess with an OTA.

This is the only guide I'd recommend: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1626895

Factory images... including 4.1.1 are right here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
As well, some have reported issues trying to flash JB if they had an old bootloader. Make sure you flash the LC03 bootloader before trying to flash a JB ROM. (It's already part of the guide mentioned above.)
