[Nook Color General] davidr415:
If I just want to have a back-up of my apps and settings (wi-fi, etc.), when I am changing ROMs and do a complete wipe, is there any advantage of using an app like Titanium compared to using the back-up/restore that is part of CWM? I assume when I restore (if I am changing ROMs), I only want to restore apps & data.. Is the back-up/restore in CWM what I see referred to as a Nandroid backup?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
For the purposes you want, use TB. Then only the installed apps and settings get restored. If you use CWM backup (nandroid) and do a partial restore of only /data, you defeat the purpose of doing the wipe in the first place. It restores the system settings too, which is why you did the wipe to begin with, to get rid of those. But WiFi settings are system settings and if you want to keep those, don't wipe in the first place. But sometimes you have to to make the new ROM work right.

Called the AT&T store yesterday to see if the had gotten in any gsn2 and the girl says yes we only have 8 so better get here early. So I show up at 0645 no line. They open up at 0900. Coming from a iPhone I figured there would be a line but guess not. Feel like a idiot out in my truck waiting for the store to open. LOL

Don't feel bad, I did the same thing on release day for the Inspire 4G.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] funnycreature:
I don't think I've ever seen a line for any phone other than an iPhone...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Egypt1337:
Why wait in line "when the next best thing is already here" hahaha :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] funnycreature:
LOL! Actually, when I bought my wife the iP4S the day it came out there were about 10 people outside waiting. It's up to you to call that a line ;)

I actually won a t-shirt from Samsung last weekend with that slogan. Should wear it when I go to the store and ask for a discount
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Norma Stitz:
I sent my wife down to pick one up for me. She called me at 9:10 and said the line was about 50-60 people long. I really thought she'd be like the only one there. I guess I'll have to wait for the next shipment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] funnycreature:
Where? and for the Note II??!?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mr mystery:
Wow demand is high for this beauty, so much for the lines are for iPhone's theory :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Norma Stitz:
This was in Woodinville, WA.

She just called me and told me the Redmond store line was "out the door, down the sidewalk, around the corner into the parking garage. Probably 200 people" (her words).

I'm just assuming it's for the Note 2. She never actually got out of the car. She did say they were all holding pieces of paper though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] garyd9:
Translation: You sent your wife to get you the phone, but she really didn't want to go. Being you seemed to think there was some urgency, and she didn't want to do it, she found the perfect Little White Lie.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Styrke:
try this : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doky.sgtoolbox Your device should be rooted.

I didn't test it but they say that your s5830i can be network unlocked : "- Unlock all four kind of locks: network lock, subnetwork lock, SP lock, CP lock" But don't use it for old ace or other devices which are not mentioned in the supported models list.
[LG Optimus Black] Sobralobo:
Hi guys,

Well, I was using V28A until the last 30 minutes. Then I saw that there was an update so I thought "Let's try it". As usual I decided to use SmartFlashTool but after 30 seconds, it said "connection timeout" and since that moment I'm trying to get my phone recognized but I only get a "Unknown device". I tried also in my father's computer to install freshly the needed drivers, then tried KDZ Updater (using the trick to be able to use it), SmartFlashTool - even though the phone wasn't recognized - without success.

Has someone any idea ? I let it in S/W Upgrade mode, being afraid of not seing it boot again.

Thanks in advance and sorry for the inconveniance.

EDIT 1 : My phone was getting so hot I decided to keep out the battery and then put it again (I was ready to give it to repair being angry of losing my phone - and... it booted as if nothing happened ? Then I went again into S/W Upgrade mode and it was recognized. So... what went wrong before ?

EDIT 2 : This time it worked ! But I would like to understand what caused that "temporary" error because it had erased something before setting flash adress (which failed). Or is my phone kind enough today because mom's birthday ? ;)
[HTC One S] lightninbug:
As the title says what are you all using to change fonts on your HTC One. Either free or paid apps. Just looking for good suggestions :)
[HTC One S] qzem:
Try Font installer from Play store. It works good for me.
[HTC One S] beats4x:
I've found that ROM toolbox not only will change the fonts but has many other features and apps that it would take many other apps to do.

Having just the one app helps with memory and app drawer clutter.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttbb333:
Did any of the methods work?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roger_berlin:
Unfortunately there is no easy way and no one click solution for this device. MTKDroidTool and SPFlashTool build from the original ROM, a modified ROM with CWM Recovery and install it. After you get root access and can optimize the Alcatel.

Work best for me:

- MTK CPU Control Test (overclock to 806MHz and 1500mV)

- ES Task Manager for a clean startup (only the launcher and the PlayStore starts at boot) (103MB free RAM at boot)

- Lightning launcher for a little bit more performance

what does not work:

- Swap is not supported by kernel

- Loop devices are also not supported by the kernel, so do not run Linux on the Alcatel

Hi,

I have a galaxy s2 from sprint...I rooted it last month with the latest ver of ICS at that time. (Fh13 i think)

anyway, 3 days, my phone downloaded the OTA update for ICS and it EVEY 2 MINUTES, there is a pop up asking me to install or install later.

I have done the following:

1. downloaded fotakill.apk and copied it to my sd download folder and instlaled/ran...did nothing. ( i cannot copy this file to /system/apps - error: "read only" )

2. tried to disable fotaupate.apk / fwupgrade from applications/all from andriod settings menu... this did not work.

there is no fotaupdate.apk app and no fwupgrade.

So, can anyone help me get rid of this stupid pop up msg ??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
I am assuming that you also tried the zip file in the thread about how to disable OTA updates? I created one of the zips that worked flawlessly and it has been updated and I have also used that zip without issue.... Just search Google or this section and yee shall find

Edit: Also you would need root explorer or es file explorer to gain r/w access to your system/app folder to transfer and set permissions.... All this information is out there for you. I understand you may be new but please understand its good to actually read up on your phone before you root it and potentially destroy because you of lack of knowledge.

Sorry man no disrespect just know this is a tricky phone to mess with and you should be careful
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mrkool44:
ok..i have gave es file explorer root access and i was able to move fotakill.apk to root/system/app and install frm there. i also renamed the .zip file to .zip.bak. i also deleted the ota update file from /cache

also i deleted sprint installer using titanium backup

and deleted systemupdate app

after all this...still.. im getting ota update notification

4. The site is being hammered and is awful slow, constant 'we are overloaded try again later' messages

"Nexus 7 purchased BY Oct 29th." ... 'By" meaning up to this date.

"Effective application dates" ... application meaning you apply for the offer.

You receive 10% for registering then £25 after sending POP. You have to email your receipt but their inbox is full so the email gets bounced back. Probably best waiting until next week to try again.
