[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Hello, I know it is very small file, I was amazed also, but after I got that little backup I flashed it and worked, I think it is because it has nothing but stock apps, I mean, I flashed it and right after everything was set I made a backup, that's why I keep telling, give it a shot, if it doesn't work, tell me and I'll make a new backup and upload it :)

cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Hello, on the second post I put a link to a bakcup I made of mexico's telcel stock rom, give it a try, its clean and rooted, it won't delete your recovery (the backup was made by cwm recovery, so it is as any other bakcup), if the backup doesn't work, tell me and I'll make a new one and upload it as soon as possible, I know the file is just 8 Mb but I flashed it on my phone and worked, remember, before you flash my backup you have to restore the ext3 format of the internal partition, if you don't, the backup will stay on bootloop, read and follow the instruccions I made and you should be fine

cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Ok, if your phone shows life signs with CP UART it means that its not hardware damaged, so I would recommend to keep playing with the four options, but, when trying to enable AP USB, let your phone there for a while, don't give it up, I'm pretty sure it'll work, because exactly that happened to me once, just have to be patient, I'm glad to help

good luck
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Actually AP USB is the default mode and the only one that allows USB sync and debugging, the other ones should be to test the usb connection by LG or someone of tech support, but the user mode is AP UART and you must keep that option enabled to be able to sync or debbug your phone
[LG Optimus 2x] Doctor0710:
After your message, I tried these options again. I left the phone on all the options for about 2 hours, still, no luck. Also, tried with another cable. Now I'm pretty sure it is a hardware issue, maybe something happened to my DATA+ or DATA- buses on the mainboard.
[LG Optimus 2x] mondc1088:
right..

Yeah,seems like it. just to report,I just have been able to resize my partitions using NVFlash,so that's a testament that the hidden menu does work (BTW I am on DM 1.7,never went back to stock). I was on stock for a few minutes,went to try and see if it will be recognized by the PC and it did. Could be the rooting process that's messing up the device,IDK,but I can confirm it does work on stock. I am on DM 1.7 now,and so far so good.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kaptain K:
Thx, but this one does not work for me, but forgive it, I found an other one and can access to the hidden menu.

So, I follow your instruction.

- change port to CP UART > Unknown device found.

- change port to AP UART > Still looping on usb refresh (with windows sound), with some times an unknown device found > I stop it after 5 minutes.

- change port to CP USB > Nothing happen and back to root menu after 2 minutes.

- change port to AP USB > Nothing happen and back to root menu after 2 minutes too.

Then I scanned for hardware changes, but nothing new.

When I try to force update of that unknown device (need to activate hidden device to see it), it tells me that it's already up to date ...

Did I missed something ?
[LG Optimus 2x] mondc1088:
Well,here's what I did on my end,before I start I uninstalled the LG united drivers first. I went to hidden menu,went to port settings,clicked AP UART (default is AP USB),then if you have device manager opened at this point you will notice it flickering as if it is about to detect something,but it doesn't. After about a minute and a couple of clicks to "scan for hardware changes" at device manager,I ticked the CP USB option then placed a check at the checkbox. It saved and rebooted the phone while it is connected to USB,then suddenly as my phone comes up it starts flodding with prompts that a new device is detected. That is where I reinstall the drivers. So hope this works for yah! :P

P.S. It does not really "save" the CP USB,it still defaults to AP USB so no worries
[LG Optimus 2x] Kaptain K:
This way doesn't work for me ... let's play around whit this port setting again :silly:
[LG Optimus 2x] mondc1088:
Ok! After much messing up with this friggin' issue,I finally have the resolution (well,sort of,hihi)! So I would presume you already installed the drivers,yada yada yada. Now before plugging in the phone to the USB port,make sure the USB debugging mode is checked. Once it is,go back to the hidden menu and change the port setting from AP USB to CP USB,then exit to the hidden menu,then plug in phone. It should work now. If not,also make sure the storage something is checked under storage. If not,I dunno what else to do. :P
[LG Optimus 2x] vanmarek:
Hey ocr66, your mexican rom backup isn't working. CWM just says "Installation aborted" whenever I try to flash it... Are you sure it's supposed to be 8mb?

I flashed this instead:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1617458

To get some sort of life signs, I switched to CP UART, because switching to AP UART didn't change anything. Anyway, I hear the sound that plays when you plug a device in a couple of times, but it shows as an unknown device in the device manager. I also get a little icon in the system tray that says "an unknown device has been plugged in". A couple of seconds later, it disappears, the "disconnect" sound plays and the "unknown device" is no longer shown in the device manager...

But on the bright side, it's the furthest I got for the last couple of months...

So goddamn sick of this phone...
[LG Optimus 2x] vanmarek:
Enabling mass storage under storage automatically disables USB debugging. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] mondc1088:
Haha! Haven't noticed that,but thanks for the tip.
[LG Optimus 2x] vanmarek:
Bump.

Does anyone actually visit Q&A? :confused:

Getting kinda desperate here...
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Im sooo sorry for not answering before I've been busy with some projects, thank you for letting me know that my backup is not working, I promise I'll do a new one tomorrow morning

About your issue, that yout computer detect your phone with CP UART is really good, it means that your problem is not hardware related, at least not 100% because in my case I dont remember that it dissappeared, but, you must play between the four options letting AP UART at the end, it might take a while fot your computer to detect it, but it must be on the hidden menu, once its detected by the computer you save the option and thats it

In my case, the bug stopped appearing two weeks ago, so I couldn't keep testing :/ hope you can get rid of the bug soon

I'll let you know as soon as I upload the new backup tomorrow

Cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] vanmarek:
It's ok you don't need to upload any backups, the one I used appears do be working. Also, I already ordered a Nexus 4, and I'm giving this phone to my father, he doesn't need any usb connections etc. :)

Good luck to the rest of you though.
[LG Optimus 2x] thestar1992:
hey, it would be really helpful if u upload your backed up stock rom because I have tried everything including re installing windows and it still doesnt work and I really want to try out ICS roms and I require smartflash or nvflash for this.

thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
I will, just give me a few hours, I know I said I would upload it yesterday but haven't had a chance to make it, just let me get home and I'll do it, sorry for the delay
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Hey I just made another backup of the stock rom and uploaded it, it weights the same 8M, so I stopped thinking why wouldn't work for you if it works for me, and I got to the conclusion, maybe, are you trying to flash it as zip on clockworkmod? (Install zip from sdcard) if so, it will never work for it is just a backup not a flashable rom, so, you have to unzip the file, put it on your external sdcard, on clockworkmod>backups, then run the program to make internal memory ext3 (guess its called r2), and then on recovery, run restore backup from external sdcard and restore the backup I made, that way it should work, if you were doing this, let me know and I'll reserch what's going on, hope this helps

cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] thestar1992:
Hey, i just tried restoring from external sd card and i keep getting error while restoring system. Is there any other way around this?

thanks for your help
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Ok, there's one more thing to try out

First of all, what error are you getting? What version of clockworkmod do you have? Try to flash last version of clockworkmod (6.0.1.5) through rom manager, that might be the problem (I used that version to make the backup), I'll try to investigate what the problem is, but need to know what error do you get

Cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] thestar1992:
I am on the latest clockworkmod and when i try to restore your backup, it says

"checking MD5 sums...

Erasing boot before restore...

Restoring boot image...

Restoring system...

Error while restoring /system!"
[LG Optimus 2x] ocr66:
Ook, let me investigate why is this happening, and what can I do aobut it, let me try to install official gingerbread and make a backup of it to see if it works

Your phone should be detected by PC now.
[LG Optimus 2x] nick61:
Hi,

I've followed the first post's step by step instructions:

-installed R2

-restored the provided back-up (mexico)

Now the phone is stuck loading after reboot. The horizontal spiral under the LG sign is rolling several seconds, than it's stopping and that's it.

I'm able to go into recovery mode still.

Also, I have in hand a stock firmware (kdz), but I do not know if it is usable from cwm recovery, and of course, usb is not functioning (that's why I've followed ocr's instructions).

Any advice please ?

Thank you,
[LG Optimus 2x] vladutz9:
well let´s see you have broke your rom and now you need to flash a new rom. Well my advice is to download a rom from developers section that can be flashed from cwr and put it in your sd card. You can eject your card and connected to your pc and from there to transfer the flasheable zip. from now you know how to enter back in your recovery and flash it from sd card. good luck.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mindaugas92:
Same for me, flashed your backup and phone freezes while booting. I can't find any stock CWM rom for the old BL :/
[LG Optimus 2x] vladutz9:
You need to put in your sd card any rom for your phone. Can be GB or ICS wheathever you wish.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jereMarfil24:
I used the MDPI theme Xperia S by Chris95X8

But for LDPI there's a Bug and I fixed it by myself. :D I'll attach it.

Just manual install:

1.Download the theme.

2.Put it to your sd-card.

3.Open Root Explorer.

4.Find XperiaS_v011_XxXx.apk. Copy and Paste it to system.

5.Change Permission to rw-r-r. Then move it to system/app. Then Reboot.

6.Go to Theme Chooser select Xperia S. Then Apply. Just touch Apply Anyway in popup. Reboot. :D

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dudds4:
Hello, so here's my situation

I want to flash a ROM. For all intents and purposes, we'll say I want to flash FreeGS3. I went and downloaded FreeGS3 and the Kernel they recommend you use with it. My problem is, custom recovery simply DOES NOT WORK FOR ME. I don't know why, it just never has. I have done everything I could find on making CWM or other recoveries work. Nada. I currently have TWRP recovery which I installed through the app on Play Store, GooManager. Flashing .zip with recovery, I always get an error, usually status 7 report.

So I eventually gave up on that, and I want to flash FreeGS3 through either Heimdall or Mobile Odin Pro (I don't have a Windows comp). My problem is how do I repackage the .zip do be a flash-able .tar file? I've looked on other threads that said it was either impossible or too dangerous to be practical. Here's what I've done so far (before realizing that you can't just flash any .tar file)

1. unzipped both freegs3 and the kernel.

2. copied files over from the kernel, only the files that didn't already exist in freegs3

3. repackaged the modified freegs3-kernel mix as .tar file (named it rom.tar)

4. copied it onto my phone /sdcard/Movies/

5. tried (failed) to flash using Mobile Odin Pro

I also have stock firmware for my phone on both my phone and on my computer as a .tar.md5 file that IS flash-able, incase I need to do any fixing.

Soooo what do?

How do I repackage this stuff into a flashable .tar or .tar.md5? If I can't, any alternative ideas?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Mobile Odin Pro now supports flashing zips as well! Just put it in the OTA / Update zip area and flash away!

[General Questions and Answers] swan3609:
So I am on a Grandfathered unlimited plan on VZW and therefor can not upgrade on my line.. But my dad is on a 4gb Tiered plan, and my mom and sister have feature phones..

So we have 2 upgrades currently. So since I just destroyed the screen on my GNex that I bought used a year ago, I am going to try to preform some trickery..

I have intentions of preordering the Note 2 here in a few day on my dads line, activating it on his line, then moving it over to my line for my use.. But I was wondering how often can you move a upgrade over to a line and upgrade on that line?

There are rumors of being able to get an S3 for $50 or even $1 on black friday with an upgrade, and I was thinking if it was possible, It would be awesome to pick up an S3 on the cheap, Maybe use it as a smaller alternative to the Note 2, or probably sell it and use the funds to fix my GNex screen and put the rest towards school (most likely situation, I loved my GNex)

Anyone have any idea on if this wouldnt work? Does verizon only let a line use an upgrade every xdays?

Not sure if Google realizes this but this is probably not the best idea...

Play Store lets you try out an app for 15 minutes and before that 15 minutes is up you can click refund and it uninstalls the app and you get a refund...

But what if you used TitaniumBackup, backed the app up before you refunded it, and then just restored it after your refunded it?

etc.

1) Purchase app

2) Backup using TB

3) Refund the app

3) Restore using TB

isn't this like awfully bad for developers?

I mean I don't make apps, but I can tell it must be hard to make money off of apps considering the amount of pirates, etc.

This just makes it harder...
