Thanks Jamison.

Under what circumstances are we supposed to use the cache wipe? Should that be part of the normal process of flashing a new rom, or only if there's a problem?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobbyphoenix:
I use them whenever I feel I need a cleaning, but for the most part you only need them if you flash something in recovery (like a radio or kernel), or if apps are misbehaving.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jamison904:
No!!!! Not sure if it would brick or not as AOKP does not need/use the preload partition. Just keep using darkside for AOKP/CM/AOSP

I got the stock rooted version to run on my sght989 but I was plagued with reception issues which I could not get resolved until I used these. Thanks bro for your excellent work. They are essential for the tmo 4.1.2 if you are coming from a rooted rom and flashing via recovery :beer: cheers!

Does the order matter? Should the Super wipe be done before/after the cache wipe?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jamison904:
All depends on what you are doing. If you are just upgrading to a new version of the same ROM, the cache wipe will be good. If you plan on moving to another ROM use the super wipe. I have heard that doing a super wipe then cache wipe works best. ( even though it is redundant....) hope this helps bro.

Quick question: I superwiped, installed a TW ROM, flashed cache/permissions and it ran great! Problem is TW is not my thing. Is there anything I need to do to get rid of the preload folder to go back to CM 10.1 or 4.2.2 based ROMs? Do I just go into recovery and wipe and clean install?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] krazierokz:
yeah only for the TW you will need those wipes as only the new TW has that preload folder so if you flash another ROM which should be fine you wont need those scripts from here as they only pertain to TW roms so you might still have a preload folder in your sd card sp make sure you wipe cache/dalvik and fix permissions upon another rom flash but normal procedure when going back to a CM or AOKP Roms

Hair pulling...

I only quoted you because this thread hasn't been active in a month, but I need help.

I have 4.1.2 TW because I have to have the Wifi Calling feature. I did not know about the preload or special wipes. Currently, my setup is with 3 batteries and an external charger so as not to break my USB port for the 4th times. I'm running Infamous S2 v3.0 (built in Arc 2.0 kernel, absolutely no changes outside of flashing and running).

When I change my batteries or power down, my phone hangs at the first logo screen that I assume is the kernel loading screen. I have a Nandroid backup that I can restore, but it fails at the Preload partition.

Should I run these scripts, do a fresh install of the ROM, and then setup everything, then do a Nandroid to avoid these hangs? In the event of a kernel boot screen stall, I'd like to be able to just run the scripts, fresh install the ROM, and then Nandroid restore only the DATA partition (which I think will give me my apps and configurations back).

Please let me know if I'm in left field on this one. And I'm on the T989 (T-Mobile) of course. I really appreciate the help.

Actually, how the hell do I stop the reboot hang? I even upgraded to the latest TWRP 2.6.1.0 version, same thing happened. I'd been using 2.5.0.0 and wiping the Preload partition but that didn't cure the kernel screen hangs. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iburnhearts:
Have you tried fixing permissions after wiping cache and dalvik? Just wipe those partitions then go back to twrp home screen and click advance then fix permissions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cwbeasley:
Fixing permissions from TWRP breaks things, which I'm assuming is due to the Preload partition. I've done it, but it hasn't worked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DeathBlimp:
I've been trying to install 4.0.4 stock rom and i used these wipe scripts once and it was fine. But 4.0.4 refused to bootup correctly. I went back to my 4.1.2 rom (CWM backup) and it went on a bootloop. eventually i stopped that, CWM everything and cache (cache hanged) and loaded an old 2.3.6 CWM backup and it hanged on restoring cache. I restarted the phone and it booted up fine. But for some reason updates of apps from google play failed. Which from looking at the forum looks like is because my /cache partition is corrupted somehow. I went back into CWM and wiped cache and it hangs wiping it. now i went back to CWM and use the infamous cache wipe. which progressed about 80% and how has stopped.

what's going on?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Sounds like you need to odin back to stock... you might even flash with odin twice back to back stock to get it right. Also wipe everything you can in recovery remove microsd and wipe your internalsd . Wipe it all remove sim then proceed to use odin to return to what ever stock rom you want be it 4.0.4, 4.1.2, 2.3.5, 2.3.6 ...... then flash a recovery that is in the era of the roms you wish to run be they new or old. Also you will be on the right radio which is important, usually.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musarezeq:
Hi,

I would like to aske 2 different unrelated questions!

1) I have imito mx1 android TV stick with built in Bluetooth. When I pair it with my PS3 controller via sixaxis app, it does with no problem, but I noticed that the connection is very weak because if I go away from the TV stick more than about 3 meters, the connection will lost.

So my question If I get a Bluetooth dongle USB for better signaling, can I use it for pairing with the PS3 controller in sixaxis app rather than pairing with the built in Bluetooth?

2)Corresponding to the DirectoryBind app, can I use it to transfer data from SD to a USB MASS STORAGE rather than ext-SD?

Thank you.

Hi again,

Corresponding to the 2nd question, I get other solution. I made a swap between the internal sd with my external usb hard drive, so my device read my 60 GB hard desk as SD card with no problems by editing the vold file as described in other threads.

Hey xda..

I have recently switched to

[ROM][S4] Android Sense Best Stock v3.0 7

With TWRP recovery.

I am not sure if this is ROM related but I have this strange problem with all my rooted apps.

but apps like (adaway or FasterGPS ( edits gps.conf) ) have an weird issue.

After reboot changes made by those apps are completely reverted.

I have switched from preinstalled supperuser to supperSU but this was not the solution.

Also using recovery fix permissions did not work.

Any ideas...:eek:

[HTC One S] rootrider:
JB Sense came out with a write protection, which could be still part of this rom. It's hardcoded into htc's stock kernel. As sources for it are available now, you only need to flash another kernel, e.g. elementalx or bulletproof from flar2 to get things working.
[HTC One S] Axxess:
I have installed it as you suggested,

but unfortunately it did not worked.

I'm going to upgrade my kernel to elementalx as suggested by rootrider

bulletproof by flar2 has solved the issue.

Its essentially the same fix.

But the full kernel is always the better thing.

the touch part is not a part of the lcd screen itself

it's a semi soft layer on top of the lcd and can be changed without

there is no glass on top of it and this is why people spend coins on

screenprotecters to put on top of the touchscreen

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hackerpower:
Read my post above.

If you still don't get it, buy a new brain.

10000 KiloBytes per sec = 10 Megabits per sec not 10 MegaBytes per sec

10 Mbps = 1,25 MBps

Sent from Hacker's U via XDA app
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] satya-1998:
1 bit

1 nibble= 4 bits

1 byte= 8 bits

1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes

1 megabyte = 1024 kilobytes

And so on, now applying unitary method,

Now, 1 KILOBYTE = 1/1024 Mega Bytes = 0.00097 Mega bytes approx

So 10000 Kilobytes= 10000* 0.00097 megabytes = 9.7 Megabytes approx

Which nearly equals 10 MB

I think we're getting confused over what that 'b' stands for. If it means bytes, then the above stands. If it means bits, then it would be different

Small b is bits.

The confusion is not ours
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rupeshmourya:
Bhai Satya dont get confuse between "Mb" and "MB" usually in data connection 1mbps means 1 megabits per second, not megabytes/sec,

works only for playstore..!!!!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sony_84:
in kbps , 'b' stands for 'bit'

in kBps, 'B' stands for 'Byte'

just search ....

in my opinion , the download speed is depend on how much max download speed our carrier gives us ... just say Xperia P handles the download speed up to 14,4 Mbps , but if our carrier just gives us the max download speed is 3,2 or 7,4 Mbps any tweaks to speed up the downoad will be useless ....
