Sounds like a wise move. Thank you sir.

I imagine I need to put the recovery image back in the sd card immediately, or is cwm smart enough to save that one?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Cwm shouldn't blow away itself. 99.9% sure it won't.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dntesinfrno:
No, the recovery is stored in its own partition and up until the last version of CWM i used (6.0 something) there is no option to modify the recovery partition at all. I switched to TWRP for multiple reasons, one of which is the ability to include a backup of the recovery partition in backups.

Is it perfectly safe to format the internal sd card? I've made a backup of the sd card a little while ago contemplating this but couldn't find any good info on this. I'm more or less in the same boat and would like to start 100% fresh
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dntesinfrno:
Yeap :good:, the only risk of formatting the internal stoarge is losing the data on it, big shocker huh :P, unless of course you were to format to an unsupported file system. I dont think this is even possible without trying real hard to do so.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thatsupnow:
Cool cool thanks man yea I'm not worried about any of the data on the internal

Does the recovery get wiped too if the internal sd card is wiped?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikied12:
If it is just applications data for the most part I just get rid of it and let the app use its new fresh installed data, even just delete the folder when I have no idea what it's for or who put it there. Because, if the app or system needs it, it will just put it back. Personal data is all I worry about, but I back that up in Google contacts and such so they just show up when it sync.

And I just save zips, and movies, and apk and such.

Then wipe the rest, no worries mate, I don't bother with backup restore anymore. :cool:

Hi.

I don't seem to be able to find the root.zip file (or any procedure) for my Galaxy Tab 7.7, because it is still under version 3.2.

Apparently there was a file for this android version in the forum, but external links pointing in turns into errors.

Here are my device details:

Galaxy Tab 7.7 Androdid Honeycomb (3.2) GT-P6800 (P6800UBLA2-CL618789).

Any help is much appretiated.

Thanks.

Is there any possible way to install root and then TWRP directly without installing CWM?

Hi.

Thanks for the repply.

I still have one question. What would happen if this Root file isn't made specifically to my firmware? Could I brick it?

Just wanted to make sure I won't cause any problems in my device. The file you specified does not contain any reference to the firmware version.

Hi.

I've been thinking and I have another question. It's still about the rooting procedure for the same device, so I thought it would fit in the same thread.

A root procedure is usually valid for the android version or is it also tied up to hardware?

I mean, there is this post about rooting honeycomb. Would it work on my device (GT-P6800)?

Thanks.

[HTC Sensation XL] gsxr:
On HTC XL it is imposible to change digitizer only .I just try to repair myself and ruined semi usable phone with cracked but fully working glass. Touch digitizer screen and lcd are (unlike some other models) GLUED together.!.

So sellers who sell digitizer only for 30$ are essentialy fakers, not telling you that it is imposible to change Digitizer only. But for 30$ many try and both throw that money and render phone totaly unusable. So they must buy whole LCD +TOUCH assembly that is much expensive. now about 150$ .

TIP: If you have cracked SXL - use it that way if you can (like me 30day with almost no problems) or buy whole assembly. No middle here
[HTC Sensation XL] Jen10:
I can also confirm this, I had a semi cracked screen, phone still 100% usable and changed the digitizer screen not realizing the LCD was actually attached to the digitizer. Phone is now completely useless. This leaves sites selling the digitizer replacements selling items that are useless. My only option now is to buy a new LCD and digitizer replacement for around £90 in the UK or buy a non HTC one for £55 from Hong Kong.
[HTC Sensation XL] darrenpauli:
You can separate the digitiser from the LCD by heating the face of the phone with a hairdryer which softens the glue. You then run a non-marring pry tool around the phone to separate the two.

Messy with a very good chance of cracking the LCD, but it can be done. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1585909

I guess the shopkeeper wasn't scamming me when he said the digitizer can't be remove on this set
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gambler_3:
No its not enough to use an "app" for it as they have limited functionality and running a custom rom just to get facebook integration is even more idiotic.

Its about time google realized google+ is never going to stop facebook domination just give it up already please, facebook is like youtube there is nothing else like it and wont be. Every other major platform including non-nexus android phones as well have native facebook contact integration now.

And dont tell me facebook is being ridiculous with their demands, you know when apple can man up and accept facebook domination as something that cant be ignored then why is google being a ***** about it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
no, facebook needs to comply with the APIs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidDavi:
So you want Facebook contacts? Doesn't it already sync with your contacts. What's it missing. And Google shouldn't stop G+. The second businesses tuck there tails because there's a better product is when consumers suffer. Google is trying to make a good network. Use Google plus its actually very good. Facebook is about ads and making money. We are just not getting a native android app
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ECBomb:
I personally don't like having my Facebook contact numbers cluttering my phonebook so it isn't a deal breaker by any means. I'd rather they keep the stock Android experience as minimal as possible.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bozzykid:
They complied with them in gingerbread and Google blocked com.facebook.katana in syncproviders.apk. So either way, Google will not allow it.

---------- Post added at 06:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 PM ----------

Having Facebook contacts sync with already existing contacts is a nice feature imho (G+ does this). I wouldn't want to sync all my FB contacts obviously.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidDavi:
Doesn't the app sync with your contacts already ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
facebook has nothing to do with google, youtube does. just because youre a heavy facebook user, thats youre choice. im a heavy g+ user, and dont even have the facebook app installed, nor would never want it installed on my device. deal with it instead of crying about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] strumcat:
Lol!!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] turdbogls:
If you want FB integration get an HTC phone. The nexus is pure Google....and there is nothing Google about FB.

Plus getting FB pics to sync is worthless since 90% of the people put pics of their cats up as a profile image...lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Marisa:
It would be different if Google were asking for the moon, upgrading to the modern APIs should be child's play for facebook.

It doesn't affect me however, I don't even have an account on that lackluster ad platform.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jameslepable:
You do understand the Facebook sync is ready to go right? They just need to make a native app with the appropriate api's. Am with Google on this one, if you don't make a native app (f*ck html5 apps) they should be able to sync.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dri94:
Uhmmmm. That one might be just you lol

Yea except everyone uses fb. I cant name one friend that uses google+. Especially international. And i go to a tech school. Legit too. Not that itt internet school crap lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
As much as a phone revolves around being a social device a lot of us don't want social clutter on our phones, not to mention apple probably patented Facebook integration. In yo face in yo face! :D

...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
So...why should Google make Facebook's app work?

The APIs have been around since ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Yeah well, I go to a crap internet school, and even I knew the APIs that Facebook needs to use have been around since ICS and that the sync problem lies squarely on Facebook's shoulders.

So much for your 'legit' school.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gambler_3:
Only with existing contacts, there is no way to export numbers from profiles. Like anyone who has given their number on their facebook profile, they will be automatically added to your phonebook even if you didnt have their number with native integration but not possible on a nexus phone. Nobody is talking about having ALL the facebook contacts in your phonebook only those with a number.

And I dont get pics of a few people because people can choose to block the app from interacting their profile. Dont know what that really means but thats what the app devs say and it holds true as I dont get pics for a few users.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laker666:
Waaaaaaaaah what are you? Like 15? Its a social media tool not your life smfh

Eff that. Not everyone uses facebook. Not everyone wants to use it on their phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gambler_3:
The galaxy S3 has fb integration its plain foolish to think that google isnt doing it because it obviously doesnt like facebook and is hiding around some stupid excuse.

And it does NOT matter if G+ is better because no one uses it. I didnt say google should retire G+ no but that they should stop thinking that they can bring down facebook and be friends with them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gambler_3:
What the hell is up with all the people here? So you dont like facebook? Fine a billion people do and most people who actually have a life no offense.

Android is all about having the "option" to use your phone the way you like it and what suits your way of things. Stop being so utterly defensive over this.

Fixed using CF-Root's CWM4 kernel (a kernel with a patched pm2.c) and add 2 lines command to init.rc to load jbd2 and ext4 modules.

For CyanogenMod 7.1 and advance user only for now!

How to flash:

- Boot your device into CWM recovery

- Push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyacei.img to your device using "adb push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyacei.img /tmp/" command

- Login to your device over "adb shell"

- Mount /system using "mount /dev/block/stl12 /system" command

- Flash CWM recovery using "flash_image recoveryonly /tmp/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyacei.img" command

- Umount /system using "umount /system" command

- Reboot your device using "reboot recovery" command to test your new CWM recovery

- Reboot your device

Not fully tested and have no enough space to try the backup/restore function

EDIT:

Recovery flashable zip added.

EDIT2:

Please try the *-fix.zip version.

Changelog:

- mount, umount, and rm scripts taken from my CF-Root-S5830i CWM to fix mount error problem

- /etc/recovery.fstab changed to mount /sd-ext partition and to fix recovery backup problem

EDIT3:

The fix version almost same as clockwork-5.0.2.6 I have modified before and shared here by Grif_05, except:

- remove a garbage file

- ext4 support compiled in kernel, not as a module

So, I've been flashing roms since February, and I am starting to see several random issues all of a sudden.

On a fresh flash of a rom that I have used for a LONG time, I suddenly have force closers on the Weather Unlock animation. My phone reboots randomly (I posted about this issue in rigid detail a few months back). I tried a different Sense 3.5 rom, and I suddenly cannot change certain settings. So, what's going on?

I've also noticed this strange behavior. When I flash from rom to rom, occasionally it will either have the background of the rom before, or the background of the last time that I flashed the same rom. I wonder if "footprints" are being left behind somehow.

And of course, I triple wipe everything, sooo...any opinions/ideas/help?

Using Smelkus 4.3 recovery, by the way.

Remove everything from your SD and format or partion, then if your still having issues go to recovery - other - fix permission and see of that helps. What size and class is your SD?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
Well the second thing about the wallpaper that is because you have it set to backup your settings. If you go to settings>privacy check backup then uncheck automatic restore then uncheck backup. So everytime you flash a rom skip through all the start up menus and do what I said above. Having that backup thing checked is linked to your gmail so whenever you signed in it would automatically restore your previous settings
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
It's a 32gb card, and I don't remember the class. I'll edit my post in a few with that info. But I had those problems before and after my recent format/partitioning of my card. It IS less frequent after the partition, though.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
The class 10 shouldn't be a problem, but anything more than 16GB I think may be the problem. Wasn't the evo made only for a maximum of 4/8GB??

Also buy a recognised brand (e.g. Sandisk) to reduce any problems.

I have a Toshiba 16GB Class 10 and so far has played nicely. *touch wood*
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
I think that the Evo was made for a max of 16gb. But it certainly seems like my sd card is the problem. My original 8gb card became corrupted when my phone dropped (yes, it made me cringe, too...it fell pretty hard...), and I thought a 32gb card was the best idea I ever had. Apparently not. Sucks...but I'm not getting a new card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
I am using a2sd. However, my card wasn't always partitioned, and I had some rebooting issues before the card was ever modified. I am not disregarding what you are saying, but I think the problem goes beyond a2sd. I will confirm, however, that I have had more problems from the time I partitioned my card. But the benefits far outweigh the issues. For example, I LOVE the fact that I can flash a new rom and use Titanium Backup to Batch Install all of my apps without starting and stopping to move them to the sd card for more space.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianvillage:
I use an 32 gig class 4 SanDisk and have never had any problems with it. And on another note, if you're partitioned, when you flash a rom, and are on smelkus just do superwipe and clear temp. Files (aka cache, dalvik cache, and temp. Files) then when you flash your new rom all your apps will still be there as that partition hasn't been wiped. As long as the rom you use supports a2sd. All you have to get back is app data. a nice feature that I love, and have never had a problem with so far.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
Class 4, eh? I guess that the true problem really is the class of the SD, as those have mentioned.

What's up guys. I've gotten enough PM's after posting some of my screenies that I think some of you might benefit from a cpl of cool apps I've been messing with.

The first one is called TextIcon CreaterIconPack. It's pretty self explanatory. You can change any icon on your screen to any word u like. It's very customizable too.

The second is Super Status Bar. I've only used this with MIUI so I'm not sure it'll work on any of the AOSP/AOKP ROMS we have. This app is also very customizable. U can change the color of your status bar.... position your clock to right, center, or left and there are a few themes out there also.

Finally a wallpaper app called Wallbase. It's what I use to find the nice ladies. ;) Set the app to sketchy and hit the popular setting and there ya go.
