Have you tried?

When you do a "factory data reset" on Sammy Rom if you have CWM Recovery you loose everything (/data + /sdcard)

When you do "factory data reset" on CM10 4.1.2 if you have TWRP Recovery the reboot start after 1 min (I think CM10 do a backup of /sdcard) and /sdcard is ok.

Then I think is not only Recovery related.

Ciaoooo
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] extralife:
so what?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] fbatti73:
The "Format data" in the TWRP Recovery, format always everything (/data + /sdcard)

The Rom function "Factory data reset" in Settings/Backup & reset menu, in Sammy Rom format everything (/data + /sdcard); in AOSP CM10 4.1.2 only /data. And is not Recovery related.

But my only - little - problem is with the "Format data" in the TWRP Recovery

I just backed up my system, wiped, and then restored it with TWRP 2.3.0.0 (installed via GooManager)...

But apparently, it only restored /system, and not /data??

(Of course, I ticked all the checkboxes for /system, /data and /boot)

Is there something I could have possibly overlooked?

EDIT:

WTF, I just rebooted to recovery and looked at my partitions and files via adb...

After restoring my backup, there is a folder called /data/data/app and /data/data/data (and more...), and there are all my files.

Is this a bug in TWRP? or what could I have done wrong?

Is there a way to get TWRP to restore to the correct folders, /data/app and /data/data and so on?

EDIT2:

Now I moved all files from /data/data to /data by hand, using adb via usb... and now everything works. Looks like this is a severe bug in TWRP 2.3, or am I the only one who experienced this?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Doktaphex:
possibly why 2.3.1.0 was released so quickly?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Dees_Troy:
I might have to start my own thread for TWRP since I can't update the OP here. We fixed this bug in 2.3.1.0 so it's time to update. It only affected users with large backups (1.5GB or greater) and it was on the restore side, so after updating to 2.3.1.0 it will restore fine.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] AAccount:
Yes, please start a new thread. I dont really have time to work on the recovery. I just made the first compile attempt. Ill hand off managing twrp and fiing issue to you.

I want to wipe everything off my storage but if I do that then cwm will be deleted too. I remember seeing topics for formating but I can't seem to find them anymore.

Don't forget to install a GB based ROM before you install anything ICS

is your internal storage working properly? That was the problem with flashing a non GB ROM first, if I remember correctly

Ya, I just had to go into vold.fstab and change 2 numbers so I can make internal storage my main storage cuz I don't have a sdcard but ive always had to do that on ICS/jb ROMs.

EDIT: Not so much, sorry for the gun jumping.

The OTA is out! Check for update. US 16gig Grey wifi!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] skeeterpro:
Hmmmm....Possibly the recent update some have gotten. Reported to not be JB. Depending on your build some were as high as 75MB. But.....let us know when you install?

thx
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] junrider:
Its an update alright but not JB.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Z a p i x:
75mb?

Stock firmware to LI3 is what that is. JellyBean would be a lot bigger than 75mb. As you will notice, it's a stability update with a few other changes.

JellyBean (if I'm to guess based on the JB leaks for the S3) will probably be more in the realm of like 150~300mb at the very least, but I could be wrong. and will likely come with a big warning about some apps might stop working! lol

At least that's how I remember going from Froyo to Gingerbread on my Epic4G.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] skeeterpro:
Agree. Major OS upgrades usually ARE much larger. Heck, look at the ROM from samfirmware. Also the stock LH2. Close to a gig.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Low023:
Bah, no Jelly Bean. Wonder what this update did it's still 4.0.4. Here's all the version stuff.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Z a p i x:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1917983

It updated a few things. scrolling side bars in S-Note is one the big changes, IF that can be considered... big.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] skeeterpro:
And reported xFAT for 64GB uSD. That would seem to be rather good. Hopefully "paving the way" for JB with these tweaks.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Z a p i x:
yeah. I think my Epic 4G Froyo to Gingerbread update was in the realm of like 250mb or something. It was big as I recall... The update zips for JB for the S3 are 750mb... >.> Really... Honestly I wouldn't be at all shocked if we're looking at a minimum of 500mb, but I'm guess guessing that number based on intuition.

Would be nice to see a stable JB leak for us 8013 owners like LIH is for my Sprint S3. Yeah, it's draining my battery about 3x harder despite the fact I've frozen up several offending apps. But I'm curious to see the additional intergration between my Note 10.1 and S3... Will my phone be able to tell my tablet the alarm is going off in 15 minutes and to go downstairs and make me breakfast? Will my tablet be able to send my phone messages reminding my phone that it's been abandoned because 10.1 of screen is better than 4.8? Or are we talking about more realistic things like... S-Note will be able to sync up with S-Memo? >.>

I'm hoping for the breakfast bit, but I'm doubting that feature will come. :rolleyes:

[General Questions and Answers] smashrc:
HI,

I have an idea want to ask if this can be done by using Android Tablet.

Hardware that needed:

1. IR Transmitter (custom make)

2. IR Receiver with USB port (buy from store if not find I can custom make)

3. Android Tablet

4. Mobile Phone Andriod/Iphone

Please check the attached picture. The Andriod Tablet is connecting with the IR receiver. Here is how it works:

1. The IR Tx sends a signal out

2. Once the IR Receiver received the signal

3. The Android Tablet will send a signal to the mobile phone by Wifi

4. Once the signal received by the mobile phone, the phone will process the signal code and find the corresponding sound clip then play the sound on phone speaker/headset

Is this gonna work by using Android Tablet?

I have some questions:

1. Android Table and the Mobile phone, are they able to connect using wifi peer to peer? If yes, what is the distance?

2. Is it possible the Andriod Tablet programming can control the "IR Receiver with USB port". If yes, where should be the key programming area should study?

3. Is it possible that the Mobile Phone Andriod/Iphone programming can be done of what I need?

Thank you for your help. Any advise is welcome.

IR Transmitter >>> IR Reviver connecting with Andriod Tablet >>> Wifi>>> Mobile Phone

How are you trying to access recovery? While the phone is turning on hold on to both volumne rockers, the Samsung logo pops up, let go. Unless there is more info, you should still be able to access recovery and download mode. Skyrocket roms, by themselves, will not brick a T989

Just turns up the black screen of death every time. So, any thoughts? Oh yeah and the jig most probably isn't an option as I have no idea where to find resistors in this city.. Plz tell me there's some other way!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramy670:
There is videos on youtube on how to make USB jig and as for resistors don't worry you'll find them if you ask, I live in third world yet I can find them easily, you just need to know where to buy 'em, and they are extremely cheap.

If things gone bad and you couldn't get into download mode even with USB jig, then you can recover your phone with JTag which requires specific equipment that you don't usually find at home (providing that your hardware is functioning properly), it can cost between 30 - 80 $ depending on which country you live in.

But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card...make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.

Hello Everyone,

Let me start off by apologizing if this has been asked. I tried to search for it, but did not have the best luck. I have the HTC Trophy (SPARK_W) by Verizon. I used one of the downgrade methods based on my SPL using a RUU to 1.3, and then was able to use DFT and HSPL to flash roms and radios. The problem I have, is that no matter what rom I use, or radio - everytime I try to make a call it rings a few times then I get a message from a verizon recording that says "Welcome to Verizon Wireless, there was an error processing your call. Please power down your device and try again." When I do the *228 I do receive the programming successful messagge, and *22889 to reactivate the data side is o.k. When I try the ##778# for manual programming, my phone just sits at the field test Loading.... screen. Is there anyone that could try to help me restore operation to my device. I'm not a total noob at this, but this was my first WP7 try, and I am honestly not as familiar with the processes as with Android. Thank you all in advance. I've tried full resets too.
