[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darth:
I restore app data all the time....no matter what rom I switch too. Never had an issue. I do NOT restore system app data....just stuff like launcher, bank app, anything I had to set up a lot of settings...like smart keyboard, handcent. I'd say I have about 15 to 20 apps I restore data too.....and have never had a problem. Doesn't matter what rom I flashed.

Just saying! ;)

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

Oh....I use titanium backup. And yes...I restore app data for my select apps between 4.1.2 and 4.2.2 roms and vice versa too. Again....never an issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Cbtriplec:
You restore using TB ? Or are you able to do this via Twrp?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darth:
I use tb. After I'm all flashed, debloated the way I like it and a few other things done, I do 2 batch restores. One for apps with data....and one for the other apps with apps only selected...no data. Never ever had an issue. Maybe the odd app doesn't work right, but nothing I have on my phone lately. Everything works fine. The only thing I need to usually fix are ringtones/notification sounds of anything I restored with data...cause it doesn't restore the previous sounds for some reason. (Alarm clock, handcent, Voxer....for examples)

I think the NEVER restore app data started when our jb roms were new and all ports....was a precaution devs suggested to eliminate that as a reason for problems. Now days I think its fine to restore app data. Again....not system app data tho!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] soupysoup:
Yes u are right, I misworded myself, as long as its not a system app is what I should've said, user app data will not have any adverse effects since the data is only related to the app and not the ROM itself, sorry for the misunderstanding
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makeperfect:
hi, guys. I find a article about how to manually root your android phone, here I don't understand the rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin file.

It seems that by executing rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin we can get temporary root access.

Is the file a script? How can we make a script like that and get the root access? :confused:

Sorry, I don't have the access to post outside links. ==

A few days ago when i was installing a custom rom i had a problem, and i have had to reinstall the rom again. Since that moment the phone doesn't sound or vibrates. I've tried reinstalling the rom and other roms, installing other kernels but nothing works. the only way i can hear something is connecting an headset. by the way there is no problem when i talk.

Can anybody help me???
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] moli2398:
I would recommend you to flash back stock ROM and see that whether it works or not. If it works then it is a problem with the custom ROM and if not, repair it with SUS or contact SONY.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aempires:
If by SUS do you mean pc companion, yes i have tried all that and the problem still there
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
try to flash JB ROM ,or GB.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aempires:
The problem begins when i was installing the JB, I've tried with GB and nothing,
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
:rolleyes:

tried ICS ROM also?

only the speaker not working at all?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aempires:
I have tried with JB, ICS, GB stock and some custom. the phone doesn't vibrates too
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
then probably your phone speaker is spoiled...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aempires:
I've been thinking that, but its not just the speaker, also the buzzer (i don't know if that is the name). and all the problem started together while installing the rom.

So i am looking for any ideas about a software problem, before send it to change the parts...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
or install ICS ROM,dial *#*#7378423#*#*

service menu,choose service tests,and test loudspeaker & vibration works or not.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aempires:
OK, i did it and the parts didn't sound or vibrates. does it mean i have to change the parts right?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
so take it to Sony Centre for checking or repairing.
[HTC Butterfly S] agustaf4:
I got my butterfly S red from Taiwan on Friday purchased it from ebay. Gorgeous phone. The red finish on this is like a glass. If you think the One is nice this surpasses it. I have both the one developer edition , my first one developer edition was sent back due to dead pixels and rough edges and the second one though better still had a lump of rubber trim sticking out the bottom right which I had to gently rub off. But the Butterfly S is absolutely perfect in build quality. It does not support LTE but I have no gripe with that sense I'm getting nearly 20 megabits of HSDPA of ATT , more than enough for me. I have been looking all over the net for a nice case for this sweet phone and nothing out there. Does anybody know of any ?

[HTC Butterfly S] FYL21:
I currently have a clear case from Metal-Slim and another faux-leather and cloth cover case with rubber.

Mercury has a glittery semi-hard case similar to the glossy finish of the phone itself. It's quite durable, slightly rubbery but otherwise it is more like a hard case. The power button might seem out of reach because it isn't covered by the case and is in between a hole, but once you get used to it, it is easy to press. There is a red one that is very similar to the red Butterfly S in colour. If you're in Taiwan, some of the street-side vendors in Guang Hua Digital Plaza have it (be careful to compare prices). I can't find it online though :S

Has anyone seen aluminum cases? There are some for the One and original Butterfly, but I think the S is too new for such cases to be released...
[HTC Butterfly S] FYL21:
Has anyone seen any clear soft cases? Currently I use the hard clear Metal-Slim case for daily usage so I can show my monthly bus pass easily.

I have a Remax clear TPU case (MYR30 in Malaysia, about USD10 if I'm not mistaken). Nice fit, with holes aligned to the IR blaster, volume controls, camera and flash as well as all the mics and USB socket. The sim card/micro SD flap is covered which I really like since I dont really open them often.I could still use it with gadgetshieldz installed.

[HTC Butterfly S] Datafiend:
Well I got my Poetic Palette and I have been using it for a few days now. This is a very low profile case that will offer very minimal protection if dropped as the case provides little coverage around the corners. The case does have a really nice soft rubberized surface that makes it feel very nice to hold. The case also allows for easy access to all ports as nothing is covered. My only issue is the bottom of the case is kinda sharp and I like to hold my phone with my pinky at the bottom and it can become a bit uncomfortable to hold after a while. Although I'm sure a bit of sand paper could alleviate this problem. Overall it is a really nice case and I'm happy with my purchase.

New aluminium bumpers for HTC Butterfly S.

These are premium. Similar to Draco Design's aluminium bumpers.

Made by Devilcase USA.

Will be available on Amazon in a couple of days likely.
[HTC Butterfly S] FYL21:
It looks cool but I am still wondering if there are any full aluminum/metal back covers. Unforunately I think the Butterfly isn't as popular as the One or the Butterfly s in Taiwan... :( Those two are sold for very good deals officially...

So far I've been using my Mercury case and it is starting to show some wear (well I dropped it running to the bus one day and the metallic coating of the case has chipped off at the bottom, fortunately my phone was unharmed). If you want a case that perfectly matches the red finish of the Butterfly s, get this! There are many other colours too.

http://tw.mall.yahoo.com/item/p089636786296

Has anybody tried fitting an HTC Butterfly case to the Butterfly s? I don't think it will work but an HTC salesperson in Taiwan said you could and tried getting me to buy a regular Butterfly case (FAR more common to find cases for it!), lol yeah right! -_-
[HTC Butterfly S] Cxpher:
I'm actually using the Imak clear case atm. It's similar to your mercury but transparent. It's just to show the beauty of my Red S. I ordered the Devil Alu bumper. It's not cheap. 50 USD. Will post pictures here once I get it. I don't think the normal Butterfly cases will fit the Butterfly S. Entirely different physical dimensions.
[HTC Butterfly S] JarlSX:
[MENTION=4216110]Cxpher[/MENTION]: doesn't that DevilCase make the phone huge?

looks like it adds quite a bit to both height and width of the phone

it does look nice tho

i bought the X-style cover case, but the fitment is far from perfect, makes the power button harder to reach
[HTC Butterfly S] jose51197:
im buying the phone soon and i bought this case to use it when i get it, looks nice http://www.ebay.com/itm/29097468581...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 , i got the last black
[HTC Butterfly S] Cxpher:
Yes it adds a bit of width and height to it but not thickness. It looks very solid with the bumper on and beautiful too. I got the red one so it kinda accentuates the red color on my Butterfly S.
[HTC Butterfly S] daorderdillon:
$50 bucks is expensive
[HTC Butterfly S] Cxpher:
It is. However, 50 bucks to protect a device that costs 800+ bucks may seem reasonable to some.

Not to mention the fact, that accessories wise, there aren't that many options for us Butterflies.
[HTC Butterfly S] mdpgc:
I think I'm getting the Seidio dilex case w/kickstand for my Butterfly S found it for $26. I know $26 might be expensive for a case but you are protecting an investment with what the phone cost.

Chinese produced a lot of cases for Butterfly S. I bought clear X-shaped TPU case from their site, cause I could only find black on amazon. really handy grip, although I prefer Mercury cases and I currently use red one, which is outstanding on the phone and doesn't do any bulk/thickness.
[HTC Butterfly S] seyidaga:
There are some mercury cases on that website I think. Yeah I saw that x shaped case on ebay I really don't like those :/ I like cases with printed graphics on the back, most of the cases are girly on this website only found few decent cases with prints :/ However, the flip-case choice is humongous. I just hope people find this link helpful :)

Just an hwads up, this case sucks at protecting your phone

Dropped my phone today, just above waiste height, on stone surface, big tear in the glass in the middle of the screen and a crack where the back button is (with danger of small splinters)
[HTC Butterfly S] FYL21:
ouch. did you have a screen protector? there's a few big scratches on my screen protector (not sure if it's drop or fingernails or something else) but I don't think it will go underneath.

I'm using a clear plastic hard case right now which doesn't cover the top and bottom of the phone. I've dropped it a few times (once down the stairs at a train station) only the bottom got a bit scratched. I prefer this case so that I can show my bus pass when I need to.

And for people who use the Mercury cases, I would advise you to take that sticker off or try not to crumple it, if you plan on changing cases every now and then. If the sticker on the back crumples, it will cause small scratches on your phone's unibody.
[HTC Butterfly S] JarlSX:
nope, no screen protector, but will get one for my new phone for sure

Hello

I'm not sure if i bricked my tablet or not...i've spent the last 4hrs googling and surfing looking for answers but i can't seem to find anything definitive. Here's what i did

1) Was on CM10.1 nightlies and wanted to update to the newest ones on the JB Bootloader

2) downloaded all the necessary files (stock Asus, twrp2.5-42 and newest CM nightly)

3) went to go into recovery but accidentally hit Wipe Data (no idea how i managed that one)

4) tablet was wiped and rebooted into a fresh from the box Android install

5) went back into recovery and wiped data/cache and flashed stock Asus

6) rebooted and it hung at the Asus "loading screen"

I still have fastboot and recovery access...i fastbooted twrp 2.5-42 recovery on to the device and can flash roms they just don't boot

Is there a fix for the this or am i screwed...i should also point out when i go into the bootloader menu at the top it says "key driver not found.. Booting OS" before it tells me the bootloader and starting fastboot

Any help is appreciated

go to the stock asus site and download firmware for your sku

extract the zip in the zip :p flash the "blob" file to your tablet

reboot your bootloader

flash twrp 2.5.0.0 -4.2

that zip you extracted from that download? put it on your device and flash it

this should work!

about the "key driver not found.. Booting OS" it's normal everyone has it!

So flash the rom and twrp via fastboot and then reboot bootloader...then in twrp install cm?

Flash blob file from fastboot

Would like to play high quality 1080p videos and hardware acceleration is definitely necessary for that. Also how is the Nook HD+ with CM 10.1 during everyday use (browsing, menus, reading, etc.), is it as smooth as other low/mid range tablets (Nexus 7 and Asus TF300 for example)?
