One way to recover lost files after flashing memory is to use samsung data recovery software. You may download it from: samsung data recovery

helped me last time.
[Galaxy Note II General] iMeAbhi:
I didn't create any backup, I cleared all dalvikcache system image etc. I flashed my new rom (stock rom, earlier had cyanogen) . my stock rom was 5.0, I updated it to 5.1 (ota update). Then installed some basic apps of day today use and after that did factory reset (from settings) 3-4 times, and again installed some basic apps. Now, is it possible to restore my data from previous rom? Sorry, I just sold my phone, so curious to know if there's any risk of data restoration.

Will google know if i rooted my phone? or unlocked bootloader. I was think of rooting it but then again i dont want to lose the warranty on it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicetaco:
If you unroot it, I don't think they would know. But as in Google, I'm assuming that's the manufacturer because Google doesn't process warranties, it's the manufacturer, even if you have a nexus.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mustangtim49:
You can always unroot, but, to be honest, I don't think it matters, a lot of urban legend when it comes to rooting. I mean, the nexus 4 is a developer phone, what would a developer do with an unrooted phone with a locked bootloader? Root it, wipe it then flash it!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vindikleuk:
Google won't know you're rooted until you send your device back for to them for repairs in case of a broken phone.;)

So, let's say you want to have the screen replaced. Before you RMA your unit, it's wise to lock the bootloader again and un-root your phone. THIS thread provides all the instructions for that. Even if your screen is broken, you can still return to a locked bootloader and an unrooted phone. For a little more information about this all, you could also search the forums for something along the lines of "RMA bootloader unroot". I'm sure there are other people who have wanted to return to stock before returning their devices.

So Google won't know unless you send the device to them. So if you're ever sending it back, don't forget to lock the bootloader, and unroot your device.:)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
Yup, you can always unroot. BUT, if Google really wanted to it could figure out what phones are rooted and what phones aren't. Think about when you go into the Wallet app with a rooted device. The app knows and tells you it is unsupported. I really don't think they care that much though..

At some point (I don't know if this is still the case) Google didn't allow rooted phones to upload photospheres to GMaps as they could fake their location and essentially end up doing something like placing the Colosseum in the middle of New York. It's not difficult for them to figure out which devices are rooted and block them for certain things but in most cases it won't make a difference.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blitzzz3434:
Nope as long as you unroot, return to stock and lock the bootloader, they will not know.

There are 2 types of wiring for phones/tabs. One has pins 3/4 mic/ground and the other ground/mic. I don't have any with me at the moment but I think SGS and TF300 have different wiring. So get new headphones or a little soldering...

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elesbb:
Like Stenc55 said. There are two different types of headset jacks.

Our tf300 does not have the three pin headset Jack. So there is no connection being made with the microphone to the device. It's impossible to add as well.

No, it has 4 pin jack (left/right/grnd/mic). I had plugged my guitar in it and it worked, but I had to cut one of SGS headphones and solder mic (or guitar) input to different wire.

I think TF has wiring like iPhone and Nokia has it like SGS.

[HTC Sensation] trid3:
So I finally took the jump and rooted my T-mobile Sensation 4G (including unlocking the bootloader, sim-unlock, S-OFF, root, SuperCID, did I forget anything??). Flashed Cyanogenmod 9.1. Have CWM ROM Manager installed, and Titanium backup.

It works MUCH better than the stock ROM, and I'm very happy with it, EXCEPT, the radio's data connection (very fast when working) stops working for hours at a time. There does not seem to be any trigger for this. The regular non-data connection (phone calls and texts) continues to work. The H by the signal strength indicator will flash on periodically, maybe every few to 10 seconds at best, but you never actually get a connection. (3D and E do not appear at all). The signal strength is full. This happens both at home and out.

I thought it might be the radio, and after looking into that, decided to flash some new firmware. Initially (after the rooting/update), it was reporting firmware (from fastboot getvar version-main) of 1.24.401.1. On the boot screen, it said Juopunutbear (I used that method to get S-off). It was reporting baseband of 11.69A...

So I flashed the 3.33 universal firmware, and used the GetRIL app to update the RIL. It now reported firmware 3.33.401.106 and baseband 11.76A...

But no difference in data connection - not working at all.

So I flashed the 3.32 stock TMO firmware, used GetRIL again to get the right RIL. Now reporting firmware 3.32.531.14 and baseband 11.69A again.

But again, no dice on the data connection.

Wifi connection works fine, so I use that when in range.

Other current info:

bootloader screen:

HBOOT 1.27.1100 (this went down from 1.27.1111 version, which I think the HTC bootloader unlock installed).

Radio 11.23.3504.07_M2

eMMC-boot

firmware version:

3.32.531.14

From the running phone itself:

Android version: 4.0.4

baseband: 11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2

kernel: 3.0.36-g7290c7f

Cyanogenmod version: 9.1.0-pyramid

The one thing I have not tried is to flash a different ROM than the Cyanogen...worth trying (any recommendations?) or another other ideas of what might be going on?

thanks!

hi,

i want to build an bluetooth accesspoint at home, where i can connect with my mda-II to explorer the internet (wlan needs to much battery).

What kind of bluetooth usb device i need in my pc?

Can these work?

What kind of settings is needed on the mda?

(sry. i´m a bluetooth-newbie)

regards

[Networking] sweeney:
The problem is that the XDA/MDA bluetooth stack doesn't support PAN (personal area networking). When the stack is sorted out then you only need a cheap class 2 bluetooth USB dongle and drivers to make this work.

I Have a Sandisk SD WiFi card, but as this kills the battery at home i use my laptop with built in WiFi and Bluetooth, I put my Laptop in the room where i am sitting, and then activesync over bluetooth, and surf the net thatway, the range is not bad, much better than the BT headset (jabraBT200) And of corse this way there is nothing sticking out the top ready to be snaped off, and the battery lasts much longer,

I will of keep the SD WiFi Card as there are also many times when i need it, But for home use as soon as they sort the PAN profile i will get a BT acess point

hi,

thanks for your answers!!!

@sweeney

Are you know if it possible to update the mda-II with the needed PAN support? If it is a microsoft-update or comes it from HTC or from anyone else?

@applecom

looks that we have the same configuration, i´m also use the sandisk wlan card but it takes to much battery power! But your idea with the activesync i like very well ... how you have to setup activesync to use bluetooth?

Are you useing the cheap "class 2 bluetooth USB dongle" sweeney spoke about or anything else?

No official support yet, but there is some sign of promise on this board that the WIDCOMM stack can be tweaked to work on the MDA/XDA and is known provide PAN, serial etc.

Hi folks. I recently flashed to this ROM for the nexus 4 experience. Its really fast but I have noticed an issue. The backlight takes a lot of time to adjust brightness as power ambient light conditions.

Also the battery life is quite low. I live 40 away from work and I lose about 9% battery buy the time I teach work every morning without even touching it.

CPU governor is pegasusq while I/O scheduler is bfq. What can I do to get more battery life without compromising Performance?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mindstar1:
Hey guys, I am rooted/unlocked running Jelly'Beans' Build 11 (going to build 12 tonight) and for some reason I can access my SD card while the phone is running normally, but when I boot to recovery it says I cannot mount the external SD to flash a file.

I get around this by just using the internal storage, but this is not ideal. Can anyone give me an explanation of why this might be happening, or maybe tell me how to fix it? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidstyle:
either a bad sd card or you need to format the card to fat32.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mindstar1:
If it were bad or formatted improperly, would I still be able to access and use it under normal phone conditions? I use it to save my pictures to, and I can access it from the phones file browser as well as when it is plugged into a pc.

[HTC One S] ATSPerson:
Ok so I had a problem recently and found a solution which might help. I googled, looked in this and a bunch of other android forums and didn't find the solution I had, so maybe my way is not the best way to do it - but it solved my problem maybe it might help you.

When I flash a new rom with a different framework to the rom I'm currently on I take care to make a full TWRP back-up of my current system move that across to my PC, then proceed to wipe everything on my phone, data, system, factory reset and numerous cache and dalvik wipes. (I use the Awesome scripts superwipe and kernel cleaners which do the trick really well).

Anyway recently I installed a rom which really didn't work for me, so i wanted to get back to where I was before I installed it. I booted into TWRP cleaned the data, system factory reset wiped the caches. I mount my PC move my nandroid across to my SDcard and go to restore. But of course TWRP looks in the restore folder for the backup and I have wiped this so the file structure does not exist.

So after telling myself what an idiot I was for not remembering what the file system was, here's what I did:

1 - Stopped panicking!

2 - Ran the back-up utility in TWRP - this recreates the file structure for the back-ups and places a back-up of your empty system in the folder

3 - Move the original full back-up I placed in the empty SDcard into the file system next to the empty back-up I'd just created

4 - Go to restore and the full back-up is there. Swiped to restore it and my One S is back to it's old self

Lessons learnt: Don't panic - there is an answer. Just think about it.

Good luck!

Plz tell me how to go back to my factory settings with htc sense on it now i just want my phone back, i did another factory reset wiping off the rom but it says no OS installed and it gets stuck on htc quitly brilliant screen plz plz plz plz help me any one plz.
[HTC One S] NQNH:
1. wrong forum, if you have a one x device

2. calm down

3. relock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock)

4. download and run latest ruu for your phone (search for a suitable one for your cid and carrier if you are branded)

5. you also can flash a custom sense based rom, which gives you sense back (viper one s or trickdroid or android revolution hd)

6. if you want to flash one of these,dont forget to flash the boot.img too

7. before flashing a rom, wipe system, data and cache 3xtimes to be sure you do a clean install

Thanks Man

Thanks Man, been stuck in TWRP for about two hours now, thought I soft bricked my Droid Dna forever. I had a backup, and adb pushed it to the /sdcard directory, but it wouldn't show up in the restore section. This empty-backup method worked fine. Thanks, you saved me $400.:good:

Saved my HTC One!

I'd just like to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU for this post! I had a major issue and thought I'd lost my 1-day old HTC One (M7). I wasn't so much panicking as I knew i'd find a way, but a cold sweat had started to break!

The biggest lesson I can take from this is simply this... MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP YOUR ORIGINAL ROM BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING! It's such an obvious thing, but without this simple step, I'd be in trouble right now as HTC haven't an RUU for my specific device yet (plus I'm on a Mac, making running .exe files more painful still)

What had happened was that as a result of a corporate email policy, I had to encrypt my device. I did this after flashing to a new ROM. Unfortunately after I had done so, the new ROM wasn't playing nicely with Exchange (using native HTC Mail app). Of course the issue here is that when you so into TWRP, you can't see the files to restore (because TWRP is opened before the device asks you for the passcode to decrypt... another learning!). To remove the encryption, I had no choice but to do a full format of the device, so I was basically left with a brick

Anyway, once again, thank you for this post, you just saved me AU$700! :D

Ok so, in not so many words, ur saying " to restore a nanBU":

1. Wipe: data factory reset/cache/ delvic

Wipe system (but not sure which one(s) cause I was used to cwm and it looks diff in twrp

2. Flash the Rom that the nanbu is based from

3. Flash the nanbu

4 reboot

It's this the correct way to restore a nanbu from a diff or upgraded rom?
[HTC One S] cheyennemtn:
So I had to do a complete restore of my default Samsung Note 2 Sprint L900 firmware after an unsuccessful Rom flash of Goodness Noteworthy 1.8.1 (numerous flashes and it wouldn't boot up past opening war video, just went to black screen and hung endlessly)

-OK so I then got back to root and installed TWRP 2.6 and I had already had several backup ROMS I saved to my computer. So I placed Goodness Noteworthy 1.7 in my backup folder in TWRP on my sdcard. I then reboot into TWRP recovery and go to restore and I can't see anything there. I have the sdcard mounted and checked and after clicking the restore button I'm not seeing anything. ? When I click install it see's everything on my sdcard ? I don't get it. What am I doing wrong.

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

Solved.. Copied my backup stock ROM from the TWRP folder on the phone and placed it on the SDcard, then I placed my Goodness Noteworthy 1.7 backup rom I had that I had on my computer and copied and placed that on the SDcard in the TWRP folder next to the Stock Rom backup I made. Booted back into recovery and clicked RESTORE and I was able to see both the backup rom and the Goodness Noteworthy ROM. I then wiped and did a restore and I'm back in business.

(if the rom you were previously on had a different Boot.img you will need to fastboot your boot.img) In the backup

Assumes you are not trying to restore a backup to 2.15 if you were just on 2.16. You will need to RUU + factory reset/clear storage for that.

I'm sry not sure what "RUU" means... Probably will remember once u tell me I'm sure. But Ya I kinda just winged it, didn't flash the Rom to do the NanBU and all went fine, which is odd cause on my S2 w cwm it out me in a boot loop and had to start over, but I think TWRP may be a diff setup when restoring nanbu's. But either way it's always nice to know and find a "step by step" guide to restoring NanBU's from previous / updated / or different ROMs. For noobs that was one of the confusing things to do due to lack of that info in threads or utube vids out there.
