[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladeco:
What are the contents of the tar.gz? I mean: if you open it with winrar / 7z, etc, what do you see?

For instance, when I open my EFS tar.gz backup, I see a single file called efs.img:

If you have that as well, you could try restoring your EFS using DD by putting the EFS.img in the root of your SD card and typing the following commands on ADB Shell:

adb shell su -c "dd if=/sdcard/efs.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=4096"
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazza_84:
Well ive repackaged the tar file to tar.gz and now efs pro has located the file but I click restore and a pop up comes onto the screen saying *you must select one partition to restore???? I dont know what that means??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladeco:
Just breathe and select the checkbox on the left:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazza_84:
Yeah mines the same in the tar file is a efs.img file, but im so close with efs pro I just dont get what *you must select at least one partition to restore* means?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazza_84:
Theres nothing in that box to select and if u see on the right drop down box your file says device, mine says PC?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladeco:
That means where the backup is located. Mine is on my phone's memory, yours is in your PC's hard drive.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazza_84:
It worked!!! Cant thank you enough for helping me out, really appreciate it, thank you so much.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladeco:
Great! Happy for you, buddy! Cheers!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santzia:
I had the exact same problem and couldn´t get it to work.so I tried what you described and it worked.

I got my IMEI back but i couldn´t get the phone to connect to a cellular network.

So I rebooted ion to revocery and did a "fix Permissions". it took forever but after that my phone worked lika new again.

A million thanks to you.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Armazia:
Sorry, I'm a bit late.

yes, when you copy the efs map I mean the whole folder. when you open Root Explorer, you start at the root. There is also a folder called efs. Make sure you backup that folder before you overwrite it(You don't want to sink any further). Then copy the backup efs folder(Which you unpacked) and paste it to the root(which will overwrite the "efs" folder now), make sure you press the button at the left top before you copy "Mount R/W". Then reboot to recovery and fix permissions.

Then its all done.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tahns:
Just to verify...

Ok, I think I understand what you're saying, but I'll reiterate just to make sure:

Backup current invalid efs partition with EFS Pro. Done

Now, I backed up my EFS folder with the Hawkish ROM installer, so I'm not sure if it's exactly what you're expecting if you're thinking of an EFS Pro backup.

I attached a picture of the contents of the tar.gz file the Hawkish installer gave me. Is that what it should be?

Also, is there something about changing some file names from .bak to .bin? if so, please explain that to me specifically.

target device is too small to hold os image

My SDIO card is 256MB. It sure seems to be large enough.

Honestly I have not found any combination that works. What are the requirements to run OSImageTool? I didn't see anything on its home page.

Is it also supposed to support writing to disk? It sounds like it only supports writing to SD and Device memory but its hard to say.

Thanks for any help.

[Google Chromecast] larryvand:
And if you have, tell us how you did it. I have been trying everything on my LG SIMPLINK TV and no go. All the right settings on the TV are ON but still no go,
[Google Chromecast] eyeballer:
From: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/3210071?hl=en&ref_topic=3267370
[Google Chromecast] the.joeba:
It worked after I turned on Anynet+ on my Samsung TV (from 2009). I also had to move from the TV USB to an external USB Power (actually it's my Google TV that provides power) because when the TV is off, it does not power the USB port.
[Google Chromecast] larryvand:
This is a brand new 2013 LG smart TV. I have turned on the SIMPLINK and the auto power on, and the chromecast is using its own powersupply. I also have a SIMPLINK blu-ray player and that works perfectly. When I use the blu-ray player remote it will turn on the TV and switch to the right channel. Same with the LG TV remote control it can turn off and on the blu-ray player. So the HDMI-CEC (SIMPLINK) is not the issue. It is Chromecast as far as I can tell. With the TV off, if I try to cast a youtube video, chromecast does not turn on the TV for some reason. If the TV is already on but in a different input, it does switch to the right input so part of the Chromecast HDMI-CEC is working. I'm at a loss here.

What version of firmware your chromecast uses?
[Google Chromecast] empirescrumble:
That's interesting, because I have my Chromecast running off of USB power (from my TV's USB port), and it still turns on my TV and switches inputs automatically when it detects casting. For what it's worth, my TV is a cheap 32" Vizio smart TV (purchased earlier this year from Target).

[Google Chromecast] altimax98:
My 5 yo Samsung 46in LCD detects it as an AnyNet device and switches inputs but won't power on. My 2 yo Insignia 24in powers on.

I think it all rests on age
[Google Chromecast] mags05:
Mine works and turns the TV on and even switches to the Chromecast input if I start a cast.

I have a 3 year old Sony 46EX710 with the Chromecast plugged into power using the USB port on the TV. It seems my TV powers the USB ports at all time, even if the TV is off.

It doesn't switch back to the last input or turn the TV off if I stop the cast though (I'm sure that has more to do with the TV than the Chromecast).
[Google Chromecast] PhantomGamers:
My Sony 40EX400 turns on when I have it plugged into the wall, but not when plugged into the USB port. (indicating the usb port does not provide power when the tv is turned off)
[Google Chromecast] NyPlaya513:
I dont believe usb ports receive power from tvs when the tv is off thus the reasoning that you need the wall outlet. I have setup 3 chromecasts and all require wall outlet power to turn on tvs, 2 samsung and 1 sony tv.
[Google Chromecast] timtlm:
I've got a 2011 LG TV (simplink) that works with turning it on. However, my Vizio smart TV doesn't turn on. I need to do some more testing with the Vizio, because it would be handy if it turned it on.
[Google Chromecast] larryvand:
That is interesting. Your USB ports must be powered all the time, even when your TV is off. What TV do you have.
[Google Chromecast] larryvand:
Finally someone with an LG. I have a brand new LG 2013 47LA6200 smart TV and I still can not turn the TV ON (switches inputs just fine). I have both settings to ON for the SIMPLINK and AUTO POWER.

My Chromecast Firmware version is 12072 (you can see that on the Chromecast app). What is yours?
[Google Chromecast] timtlm:
Mine has the same build number. My TV is the 47LW5600. Mine just worked without messing with any settings. Although, I've looked, and I can't seem to fine my simplink settings in the menus.

EDIT: Just realized that there's a simplink button on the stock remote that opens up the simplink menu. Only has options to turn off and on.
[Google Chromecast] empirescrumble:
Here is the TV I have:

http://store.vizio.com/e322ar.html

However, after the TV has been off for a long while, the Chromecast seems to shut off at some point, not sure at what point though. Oh well, I can live with that. My TV is usually on, even when I'm not watching it, for some kind of background noise, haha :)
[Google Chromecast] mikaelsnavy:
I had to go into the CEC settings on my Vizio smart TV to make it work, but it now works perfectly!
[Google Chromecast] timtlm:
I have turned CEC on in the settings. There's only an on/off option, and detect devices, which it does detect the chromecast. It switches inputs just fine, but won't turn on the TV. I've also tested my HDMI receiver, and it doesn't turn that on either. However, I know the receiver can be turned on via CEC because my TV is capable of turning the receiver on. Maybe an update will offer better CEC compatibility.

EDIT: My raspberry pi turns on my vizio TV when you power it on, so the TV is definitely capable of being turned on via CEC.

My battery used to drain very fast. However when I discover that s4's charger is high powered..I switched to it.

Does this fall under off topic? Because I highly doubt that it'll pertain to our devices since it was released before Jan 1, 2013. So can we just throw up the names of a few devices?
[Motorola Atrix HD] Rick1488:
Well I asked about our device and they said its already been voted on and was never told it was disqualified and as for the release date of our device I did not know it was that old. The man that can shed some light on this would be tquetski he did a fork of MIUI and I believe he is working on a port, but he doesn't own a ahd and is doing it just because he is kool like that, but to answer your question don't post requests here for other devices that would be meaningless. If you want a different devices requested the rules clearly stat where to post it.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uggers:
Apologies for a question that's certainly been asked before although mine might be a little different.

At the moment I have a HTC Desire S that's served me well for a while.

I've been debating upgrading for a while and I have been waiting to see what the HTC One Mini was going to be all about. However literately today I noticed the specs for the Nexus 4 and Samsung S4 Mini and was wondering if it was really worth buying the HTC One Mini.

So I did a bit of research with the Nexus 4 and I the price of the phone is just to tempting to ignore especially for 16GB. I also realised that potentially the Nexus 5 is going to be released soon.

Basically, I wanted to know if it was worth waiting for the Nexus 5, however my additional question was relating to the size of the Nexus 5, is anyone aware of how big it might be? I don't want anything bigger than the Nexus 4 Ideally as I heard a rumour it might be one of those phablet (spelling?) types?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kzoodroid:
There has been no word from Google that they will even make a Nexus 5. If they do it won't be available for sale till late November early December so you're looking at waiting 4 more months. You also take the chance that it will be a lot more expensive than the Nexus 4, a good $200 more if it has a larger screen and LTE and top of the line hardware.

If a Nexus 5 were to be announced, it's likely Google will base it off the Optimus G2 which should be LG's flagship phone, most likely selling it for $500+. In that case I think it's hardly possible that the next Nexus will be cheap.. Go for the Nexus 4, I am :P
