[General Questions and Answers] Mmgala:
Hi

i´m living out side US, which gives many disadvantages in a lot of ways

The resent problem that i have encountered is that i´m am VERY keen on getting the new Nexus 10, which is not possible for me to order from my country.

I do have managed to get a VPN connection, so that i can visit the US google play store and follow the Tablet.

I also have a shipping adress (New york) in the US and some friends which will be going over there and bring it back to me.

My problem is, that trying to do at TEST buy the google store had a "mailfunction"

i changed my country to US and the city to new york in my gmail account but with no luck.

my theory is that using my own visa or master card it tracks the buy and "stops" it.

is there any one out there, who have solved this problem or have any idea how to do it.

hoping for your help

best regards

Allan

SAFESTRAP v3.12 (2nd-System Bootstrap / Recovery)

** INSERT STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I'm not responsible for any damage you do to your phone using my tools. Always have a fastboot available for disaster recovery. **

Download the APK Installer Here for "XOOM2"

md5sum: 335f5bc247dfde9741c1173651591610

FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS: How to Safestrap

[ DOUBLE-CHECK you have the XOOM2 VERSION ]

CHANGES:

[01/04] (3.12) Fix initial file selector location for backup/restore

[12/29] (3.11) Allow use of custom updater-binary in .zip files for flashing on stock ROM (virtual slots still use prebuilt updater-binary in recovery).

[12/29] (3.11) BUGFIX: Fixed fake flash error at the end of a .zip install. (No real error, .zip installs fine)

[12/29] (3.10) Early support for booting custom ROMs on stock partitions. (Custom ROMs will need to be worked out for JB4.1 from Moto still)

[12/29] (3.10) Enable flashing to stock ROM -- BET FEATURE/STILL TESTING

After .zip installations, nandroid restore or system wipe on the stock ROM: the current Safestrap files are restored to the system partition (Doesn't include the APK in /data -- so if you're restoring an old backup, be sure to update the Safestrap APK)

During the Safestrap files restore a check is done to be sure there are minimal files on /system to re-enter Safestrap

[12/27] (3.07) Bugfix: missed some changes in Safestrap 3.06

[12/26] (3.06) Bugfix/Update for JB4.1 OTA for DroidRAZR (Non-JB devices can also use)

[10/17] (3.05) Fixed SD card / emmc sharing in recovery (UMS)

[10/17] (3.05) Fixed recovery installation/removal from ROM-slots

[10/14] Updated to v3.04 BETA.

[10/14] Recovery is now based off TWRP 2.2.2.1 (fully featured touch-based recovery)

[10/14] Can create up to 4 Virtual ROM-slots to flash ROMs to and when "Active" ALL TWRP functions affect that ROM-slot (For example: Flashing .zips, Backup and Restore)

[10/14] Nearly instant swapping from ROM to ROM

[10/14] User selectable data partition sizes during ROM slot creation: 1GB, 2GB or 3GB

[10/14] ROM slots are saved on the internal emmc space so that preinstall and webtop partitions are no longer used and shouldn't break OTAs.

[10/14] Charging in recovery

[10/14] Supports "Reboot Recovery" from Android OS

Entry to recovery via Splashscreen on boot-up. The screen stays up for around 8-10 seconds and if you hit the menu button, it takes you to Safestrap Recovery.

SPECIAL THANKS TO:

The entire TWRP team who has built an AMAZING recovery system.

The testers which have helped in past and present versions of Safestrap, knowing that it could mean they brick their devices.

As always, let me know what you think!
[Xoom Android Development] taquion12:
Thanks man this sounds awesome, I'll test it right away, do you need logs or something?

Wow - everything is working awesome - backup/restore work, ROM slot creation, switching, and deletion work - except the splashscreen is not active. It comes up, but it says Safestrap is disabled and the buttons are greyed out. I can get into Safestrap no problem using BPTools.

Charge Only mode working great too.

Super sweet!
[Xoom Android Development] Hashcode:
So the buttons on the splashscreen don't work? Does the picture of the little Android look oriented correctly?

Safestrap won't be "active" till we get a ROM installed on a slot and have it booting.
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
Exactly - Android is oriented correctly, but the buttons don't work. After 10s it boots into normal Android. Boot into Safestrap via bptools works fine, and everything in Safestrap seems to work fine.

And - CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE A ROM TO INSTALL!
[Xoom Android Development] Hashcode:
I can do a new version which includes logging of the splashscreen and user touches in a bit to see where that's breaking.
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
Awesome - let me know and I'll test!
[Xoom Android Development] Hashcode:
I just realized that this doesn't have the correct Safestrap theme in it. And the buttons in recovery might be "off" a bit. So those will be addressed in the next test.
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
Ready to test!
[Xoom Android Development] Hashcode:
v3.05.03 is up:

1. Added a new logfile to the splashscreen which generates /sdcard/ss.log

I'd like a pastebin of this logfile with 4 touches during the splashscreen:

1a. Touch once in the upper left corner of the screen

1b. Touch once in the upper right corner of the screen

1c. Touch once in the lower right corner of the screen

1d. Touch once in the lower left corner of the screen

2. Fixed some of the theme graphics which weren't updated for the 1280x800 layout
[Xoom Android Development] FCN:
Well the Buttons are still quite off. Also, The splash screen doesn't even appear with the new version, It's just a flashing red and white screen.

EDIT: The SplashScreen came on normal this time. But the buttons are still funky. I'll upload a touch log in a sec.
[Xoom Android Development] Hashcode:
Thanks, make sure they are in the right order starting top-left and going clockwise from there. :)
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
Hey Hash-

What do we need to do as far as un installing / cleaning up the previous version?
[Xoom Android Development] Hashcode:
If you are going from 1 version of Safestrap to the next, you don't have to worry about anything.

Just install the new APK (it will let you know it's over-writing an existing app)

Then use "Install Recovery" button. Done. :)
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
Excellent - I'll be able to do some testing in a few hours!
[Xoom Android Development] runandhide05:
Nice.
[Xoom Android Development] FCN:
Got the log you wanted, Hash.

Custom ROMs

Maybe i'm wrong, but this is a great start to build custom roms to ours xoom2/xyb.

I have a Moto Defy MB525, and now we can boot custom kernel, even with a locked bootloader. Thanks to devs, we have an awesome rom, with Android 4.1.2, and 4.2 is already in development.

I don't know if it helps, but the source for 2ndboot is here... https://github.com/czechop/2ndboot

Our hope is to see a custom rom soon....

Thanks to all involved. :good:
[Xoom Android Development] NWKENT:

[Xoom Android Development] weaver11b:
Thank you so much for your work on many devices!! Anxious to see what can happen with the xyboard/Xoom 2!!
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
First of all, thank you so much for continuing to work on this project!

Not sure if I am doing something wrong, but when I boot into recovery, I can make a backup of the stock ROM and create a ROM slot fine. When I restore the backup to the new ROM slot, however, something funny happens. On first boot into the new ROM slot, I get an error on the lock screen that says "Accounts Storage Has Stopped." I can't get by it, and have to hard reboot. On second reboot, I get past the lock screen fine, but all of my data is gone. Essentially, I boot into the stock system as though it were my first time (although I am not asked to enter my Google account info, etc). None of my apps show up (except SuperUser), none of my screen configurations are correct - the lock screen does not even use the PIN I set up. It's as though I restore the stock ROM with no data.

I could be doing something wrong - if so, I'd love it if someone could point me in the right direction.

---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

Nvmd - I realized that in my over-zealousness I was wiping the cache after I restored - eliminating all of my data. Did a fresh restore without wiping, and everything is working perfectly!

Now - does anyone have any kind of relationship with a ROM developer? It would be so nice to have something ported over for us - CM, anything other than stock.

Thanks Hashcode!

---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 PM ----------

One last thing - the battery reading is incorrect in Recovery. It says 100% all the time - regardless of the actual battery state.

Just FYI.

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:10 PM ----------

OK - the problem wasn't wiping cache (that didn't seem correct to me, anyway) - the problem was setting the /data partition too small. At 1GB, the restore fails. At 2GB, it works fine - guess I didn't check the size of my /data backup before choosing 1GB.

Anyway, everything seems to be working fine now!

Got a bit confused and restored to stock. Now system ui won't load. Restored to romslot1 so at least I can use the tablet. Any suggestions on how to get stock working again? Thanks.

John
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
Is the backup of the stock ROM? If it is, you should just be able to factory reset the stock slot and then restore the back up to it, yes?
[Xoom Android Development] sonjohn1:
Didn't work. I'm at a loss as to what to do. Thanks.
[Xoom Android Development] jeffcavicchi:
What happens when you try to boot into stock, exactly?
[Xoom Android Development] sonjohn1:
It updates and boots into a screen that says the ui has stopped. It seems to be trying to load the os, but can't. The boot logo is blue instead of red. Isn't that the motorola recovery mode? If I format data on the stock rom slot will that brick the entire device and wipe my backup? I can't backup rom slot1 because it isn't big enough. I really don't want to fastboot this thing. I've never done that before.

[Xoom Android Development] Hashcode:
try wiping data on the stock slot.
[Xoom Android Development] sonjohn1:
Will that impact my back up? I don't want to lose that. Thanks

[Xoom Android Development] Jiggity Janx:
wiping data on any rom should not affect your backup which is stored in /sdcard/twrp as is the additional information for your additional rom slots (in another folder). data wipes should never wipe /sdcard.

well simple put you can not flash a kernel ( which is in the boot.img) on here, unless you have a RARE unlocked xoom2/xyboard ( they do exist but rare, i know of two both in china)

for locked devices you can use a Kexec method for kernels swapping
