[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] szaboagoston:
Okay, the issue is solved. I admit, I might have been a little inpatient. Despite the "error restoring data" message, the stock factory system booted after a few tries - I might not have waited long enough. It seems that these "Folder 0"s were all just security copies of the old systems, and of course consumed a lot of hard disc space, so I just deleted them. Haven't met any negative consequences so far. I just got scared because of the error message and the too long boot time. Also this phenomenon with "Folder 0"s is not something I met before on other devices.

Send the phone in under warranty for repair. Unless you got the phone when it first came out, chances are its still covered.

[General Questions and Answers] Ketansa:
1)I have rooted the Android phone. Xperia Tipo.

2)Installed the Root explorer, Permissions Denied, Droidwall, Startup Manager, Adfree, Busybox, Titanium Backup.

3)I was planning to use the Comodo Mobile Security (including antivirus and a live monitoring firewall)

Do I need to remove anything from the previously installed set of apps? Because even if I have droidwall, It only blocks applications as a whole. I cannot stop the apps from doing specific spying like- phonebook photo, access. etc.

The ****ty google has lot of apps that keep logged in. I tried to block one service from startup, and youtube stopped working.

I dont want to permanently block them. I only want these apps to login and access only when I need.

What should I do?

I know I asked two or more questions in one topic, despite of the title. But, hope someone tells me.
[General Questions and Answers] ashiqsultan:
Dude I can understand what you want because I also hate such google apps running in background :mad:so do the following

Go to (settings<apps<all)and find the app you want "for example" take YouTube select it and click "Disable"

(before tat click force stop to save RAM) The app will be freezed and will not run until you again go and enable it...

PS:The disabled app will be in the dead bottom in (settings<apps<all) you can go there and "Enable" it again when you really need to use the app.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GibsonLP:
Hi.

I wish to upgrade my stock firmware to CM10, I understand that my current CWM (4.0.0.2) is too old and might cause issues.

I see that there are many ways to install CWM, but in case of an upgrade, should I just use ODIN to flash the latest CWM, overwriting the old one? (I already rooted the phone).

I remember that when I rooted the phone and installed CWM I had to select a specific kernel that matches my vendor/release or something like that (I could be mistaken as to what it was exactly, it has been a while since I did that). I just don't want to brick my phone.

Thanks and sorry if I asked a noobish question.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
This is something you dont really need to worry about. Just flash custom kernel and your done. If your using custom roms you dont really need to worry, they all come with CWM included in kernel anyway so when you want to install next custom rom simply reboot into recovery and flash the zip.

If you're flashing a stock rom via ODIN remember to also flash custom recovery so you have CWM aswell as get rid of brick bug.

Ok i have a US Cellular Galaxy S3 and i want a custom boot animation, and boot audio, currently running LiquidSmooth beta2. i can replace the boot animation but nothing ive tried allows me to use a custom boot audio file, can anyone tell me where the file needs to go, what file name / format it needs to be? is there something else that needs to be done in order to get it to work properly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] undarated:
on aosp roms look in system/media folder for the bootanimation.zip. Correct me if I'm wrong but, I'm thinking the bootaudio goes there also. And most likely you will have to add the line for the boot audio to the build.prop and I'm sure the kernel will have to support it.

Like I said someone correct me if I'm wrong about the boot audio.

Good luck

Oh and the formats will be bootanimation.zip and bootaudio.mp3 or bootaudio.ogg. try both

I rooted my one s and basically right now I'm working with TWRP 2.3.3.0 and that's it. I can flash back and forth between that and CWM, but my rom (cyanogenmod) is stuck on a loop when I boot to it. Unfortunately I formatted everything thinking that's what I was supposed to do to get the rom working. But now it's still not working and when I mount to USB my computer is telling me it needs to be formatted before I can use it, so I can't add a different rom to flash to. I really have no idea what to do and I don't even know if this is the right place to post, but I'm freaking out that I just made my new phone worthless.

I have had my device for over a year now and I have done many with it since it has been rooted. However, it is well known that this device does not have a long battery life in most parts due to the low battery given to it as well as how we use our device.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comfortable:
Is there any other way to unlock the bootloader of my XPERIA phone without doing it the 'official' way & transmitting personal IMEI & email info to Sony? (after which they don't have to honour your warranty?)

If there isn't:

I am stuck on Step 10 of Sony's official instructions

I have done what they told me so far:

* I have got the IMEI

* I have checked that my phone is bootloader unlockable. YES.

* I have downloaded the Android SDK (398 MB!). It's a file called adt-bundle-windows-x86.zip

* I have extracted adt-bundle-windows-x86.zip

* I have looked in its folders

* In Step 10, Sony says:

~~~~~~~~~~

Place the unzipped file in the usb_driver folder, located in the Android SDK > extras > google folder on your computer. Accept to replace the old android_winusb.inf-file with the new file. If you can't find the usb_driver folder, please install the Google USB Driver Packager using the Android SDK manager..

~~~~~~~~~~

However, I cannot find this folder in the Android SDK (adt-bundle-windows-x86.zip that I unzipped earlier).

So I have no idea what they mean.

I come here to share my frustration and hopefully get an idea from a more clued-in person.

Thanks for any help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HQRaja:
They have mentioned what you need to do in the instructions. You need to run the Android SDK Manager from the SDK's main folder that you have extracted from the downloaded zip file. In that folder, you will find the executable SDK Manager file. Run it, and make sure these items are checked:

- Tools > 'Android SDK Tools' and 'Android SDK Platform-tools'.

- Extras > 'Google USB Driver'.

Next, click 'Install packages' and wait till the packages are downloaded and installed. Once done with that, you should have all the required tools as well as drivers in their respective locations in the SDK folder.

Hi HQRaja,

Thanks for answering.

Installing the Google USB driver

I am prompted to install this when I checkmark it and click on "Install 1 package..." in the bottom-right. Thank you so much. Sony's instructions had me confused.

I'm now getting download time-outs on this file so I may try again later, but thanks for getting me on the right track!

The other two you mentioned were already installed.

Sony's instructions aren't the clearest for a first-timer, especially since this SDK doesn't run a traditional installer process and it was unclear to me exactly where I needed to look to install the driver (extras was all the way down the bottom and only appears with a valid net connection active, otherwise it wouldn't be seen in the listing). Thanks for clarifying exactly what I need to do.

I am not sure why I downloaded almost 400MB and didn't get this file included in a traditional-type of installer that doesn't need a net connection (again) but that might be a question for another day :)

Thanks again. Hopefully I'll have this bootloader unlocked soon and then my phone rooted.

Hi XperienceD

Thanks for putting all this together under one roof, so to speak. Much appreciated!

This should save me heaps of time and frustration soon. Cheers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comfortable:
Guys,

the bootloader has been unlocked!

Sony should update their instructions on unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com

~~~~~~~~~~~~

In Step 12 they don't have a link to the Fastboot button for your phone (lazy), so you have to Google to find their Fastboot button page. Turns out for my phone the Fasbtoot button is the UP volume button.

In steps 15 and 16 they are referring to an out-of-date file location when talking about the fastboot command. It is now found in:

adt-bundle-windows-x86\adt-bundle-windows-x86\sdk\platform-tools and is not within the android sdk folder as stated by them. Going in there now and trying that fastboot command results in nothing. Again, this is very poor on Sony's part but perhaps they want to limit the amount of users that do this.

~~~~~~~~~~~

This was my first android phone and first time unlocking the bootloader, so I found their instructions poor.

I hope that helps someone.

clean slate

Anyway, I disconnected the phone from the USB cable and it seemed to take a while to start up but that's 'cause it seemed to wipe the phone to a factory restore when unlocking the bootloader, which is fine with me.

rooting

Still haven't rooted, but I will try Bin4ry's method for rooting the phone, assuming I ever get that file in one piece. I tried downloading twice and I never got the complete file but I'll get there.

You guys are fantastic.

Earlier I had so many threads open that weren't helping, that my head almost exploded.

Thanks so much for the helpful push.
