Glad to have helped!

In the future, once you change the backup method to tar, you can use ES explorer to rename the backups that you have in the clockworkmod folder on your SDCard. don't use spaces though or it won't work.

This makes it easy to do a backup of your current working rom, then hit smsbackup, call log backup, (ti backup for whatsapp, games etc.)

I have a backup of ICS, PacRom 18 and CM10.1 all ready to go with all of my email accounts etc. all put in and labelled. So when someone has a fix or patch for a rom, I do a current backup.. restore to whatever, apply fix test etc. then i can roll back really quickly without missing a beat. for example, I wanted to make a call to my Dad on Sunday when I was driving home from the cabin .. I did a backup of my current CM10, restored ICS .. made bluetooth hands free call,rolled back to CM10.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dEhiN:
How do you do a restore really quickly? Based on the time it took to do my backup and upgrade of CM10.1 from M3 to RC2, the prospect of switching roms from CM10.1 to ICS just to use bluetooth audio or duolingo/skype doesn't seem very appealing!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
quickly is a relative term... as long as it takes to do a backup (of current jb) then restore (archived ics) then revert back to jb ...

i was on a highway cruise for 3hours when i did it last.... gotta make good with what we got, right?

Hi

I have a few questions - yes im a noob:)

What i would like to do is to root my phone so i can install apps such as greenify, that is all i want to do - root, i dont want to flash roms etc

my questions are:

1. if i root, do i still get OTAs

2.and can someone point me in the right way - the guides i see alll show about installing recovery etc... if i just want to root do i still need to install twrp etc?

To do anything, including rooting, you'll need a custom recovery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
Flashing custom recovery means that you will not get ota updates. A better way to root your device is to go into fastboot, and merely boot a custom recovery instead of flashing it.

All the things you probably need are in the link in the post before me, but when in fastboot, type "fastboot boot recovery.img" replacing recovery with whatever you named the recovery image.

It will then boot into recovery, and you can flash superuser and get root without having a custom recovery ruining the chances of ota updates.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hollywood528:
I originally had a cheap matte screen protector from eBay... after a few months it was pretty beat up and in need of replacing.

After searching all the different options.. I figured I would give the XtremeGuard Screen Protector a go.

I ordered off eBay XtremeGuard, $2 w/ free shipping. It arrived two days later. It comes with the screen protector, cleaning cloth and squeegee card.

Last night I began the install. It is a "wet" install process. Very similar to installing window tint on a car.

First, I cleaned the phone really well with soap and water and the micro fiber cleaning cloth. Then I prepared the soap and water solution. Only a small amount of soap is needed. I got my fingers wet to prevent fingerprints and peeled the backing off the screen protector. I got the screen protector pretty wet with the solution and placed it on the phone from edge to edge, careful not to get any big bubbles. With it still wet, it's very easy to line it up perfectly.

Once I had it in position, I carefully squeegeed out the solution starting in the center, working outwards. I found getting the squeegee wet with the solution helps it glide across the screen protector. There was a tiny spec near a corner, so I lifted the edge back up, got the spec out and proceeded with the squeegee. After that was done, I wiped away all the excess water solution and let the phone sit for a couple hours.

At first it felt very sticky, but this morning, it seems to be a lot better. The manufacturer says it takes 24 hours to fully dry. But who can wait that long haha. I am being very careful with it until it completely dries.

Overall, it seems very good. The fit is great! I really like the wet install process, as it allows you to position it perfectly and it's very easy to get out any bubbles.

I will report back with an update as I continued to use and abuse my phone. I work in a metal forging plant so my phones experience extreme conditions; 2000°F +, drops, welding and cutting sparks, etc.

I will also post some pictures when I have a chance to use my wife's phone to capture the pic.

I highly recommend the XtremeGuard Screen Protector so far.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jriv:
To tacky for me I'd rather buy cheap non wet ones and replace them add they scratch

sent from a guy living in a van down by the river
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hollywood528:
Update:

Two days have gone by and the screen protector feels smooth, not quite as smooth as the gorilla glass, but close.

[HTC Droid DNA] calbruc:
I have an issue when trying to watch YouTube on my Nexus 10 whole tethered to my DNA. More often than not, it just gets stuck, the wheel keeps spinning, and it doesn't go anywhere. I can go to my phone and watch the video without an issue, and youtube is fine on my home wifi. Other steaming apps, like Netflix and Xfinity don't have any problems.

I had this issue when on Viper, using TreveMod, and also since I switched to Cyanogen, using the built in tether.

Anybody else? Any ideas?

I have the same problem on my nexus 7 as well when I tether. Never figured it out and I always have to reload the video.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramadya2226:
This is my first time asking a question on xda-developers so if this question has been answered in another forum, i'm sorry i didn't realize it.

This has been an issue for me since last year but i didn't mind at the time but now that this is 2013, I've had it.

Every time I record video using the Nexus One, there's this hissing noise like "BZZ,BZZ,BZZ..." in rapid succession and instead of sound coming from my surroundings, the hissing noise is there and I can't do anything about it. I did tests such as blowing my breath to the mic or tapping the phone and yet there's this noise that isn't what i recorded. Surprisingly, the mic works in almost EVERY application EXCEPT the camera app.

The Nexus One is rooted with Cyanogen7 running 7.2.0 and I think the problem is with the camera app.

I even tried going back to stock to see if that would work but it hasn't!

I was wondering if this has been confirmed with other phones or if there's a solution for this kind of problem.

Hi Guys.

My friend has lost his phone password.he tried a few times to open it but the phone restarted and after that stucked at bootloop.

I have flashed some kernels on it but when the pphone come up the launcher keeps restarting.

Is there a way to fix it without wiping the data.

ICS 4.0.4
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slimlo:
did you do a factory reset on the phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ali6049:
No i didnt.I cant do factory reset because i dont have a backup.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
DON'T do a factory reset! OP states he is on 4.04. Search 'emmc brickbug', you may have it as you're on 4.0.4. If you do have the brickbug, a factory reset will brick your phone.

OP, by 'losing your data' do you mean photos etc? If so, you can flash a new firmware (download from Samfirmware) using Odin without losing photos etc. However, you will lose your app data (settings of apps etc). Better than having a bootlooping phone though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obumnnori:
then forgot abt the backup
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ali6049:
no he dont have backup of his contacts.if i install a new frimware do i need a wipe or should i do it without wiping?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
So he doesn't sync contacts to google? (in sync options, 'sync contacts'? if ticked, then all contacts can be restored to phone after signing in to google account on new rom). If you do install new firmware: to be on the safe side, flash an ICS-compatible Siyah kernel using Odin. Then you'll be safe to wipe, as Siyah has the emmc bug (emmc_cap_erase) disabled. Then, flash new firmware in Odin.

Some people report success of upgrading with no loss of data (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2116344) so you technically could try upgrading with no wipe.

[Motorola Atrix 2] sevenev:
This has happened to me on several ROMs, I was on Devesh's PAC and I now switched to Devesh's Carbon to see if that would fix it but it hasn't. Some phone calls are not going through. I have been getting voicemails without ever being notified of a missed call. I have tested it myself by calling myself through Google Voice and one or two out of three calls didn't get to me. It rings for 30 seconds then goes to voicemail. I have also witnessed it vibrating late. Like it'l ring for 20 seconds or so, and then finally my phone will catch on and vibrate. I searched around and haven't found any solutions to this, so can anyone help me out?

Rooting GT-S6810P

Hi all.

I rooted my gt-s6810p using MotoChopper. Here`s how it worked after a few attempts.

Make sure you use your main USB ports at the rear of your computer, as using front ports on some systems can cause errors.

Have the latest Samsung Kies or Samsung USB Driver Package installed on your system,

Enable USB Debugging mode in Developer Options on your phone and plug into your computer via USB cable,

Download MotoChopper,

Extract and open the MotoChopper download and locate "run batch",

Right click on "run batch" and select Run as Administrator,

Follow the instructions carefully until process completes,

After your phone reboots your phone should now be rooted and in your app tray you will have a SuperUser icon.

These are the exact steps i took to root my phone and it was the only method that worked after a few attempts trying other methods. When i first tried with MotoChopper it failed because i used my front USB ports on my computer. I plugged my phone into the main ports on the rear of my computer and MotoChopper went through the process without a hitch.

There are not many options for us with this model of phone right now as regards ROMS, Kernels etc, but hopefully some Devs will release some in the near future. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ALL YOU DEVS OUT THERE. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Meanwhile i`ve been playing with Corsicanus Rom and other stuff that can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48781728. The custom CWM Recovery is a must for this wee phone and will replace your stock recovery with something a lot better.

I`m new to Rooting and Roms and Kernels and all things android but i`m learning. Being an IT Tech/Systems Administrator has helped in the learning process.

I hope this helps all who own this model.

Good luck.:good::good::good:

I tried it with tmobile 3G here in Orlando (the js won't do the tmo lte frequencies, iirc) and it was absolutely horrid. I've since moved it to at&t lte and it is obviously much faster, though, not quite as fast as my galaxy s3.

If you have a stylus then you can tap the pen icon -- the fourth icon on the status bar. My Jetstream has a list of two options here: one that takes you to a nearly barren Pen settings screen and one that lets you Take a screenshot. From this point on it is self explanatory.

If you don't have a stylus then I hope you have root. I believe that all screen capture apps in the market require root. I have had success (on my Jetstream) with an app called Screen Capture. The following is a QR code link.
