galaxy S4 verizon CM10.2 8/16

i just flash the new CM10.2 8/16, coming from CM10.1 8/14. i did a backup with TB, i am trying to Restore Inotia 3 with data. with TB, TB stays at 0% . never restores it.

i am thinking because of CM10.2 . if i go to the play store it installs just fine.

my question is how do i get my save data from TB, place it in the phone?? step by step please if there is a way.

Hello,

I installed last week this version of android on my G9, all was fine until today when my tablet ran out of battery, I plugged it and start it again as I always do in that case. Except that today android didn't start and I got the multiboot screen which you can see in attached files. I tried both options but my tablet always restart on that screen.

When my tablet is plugged into my computer it is not recognized so I can't put a new ROM of android and make a new installation, I tried to use ADB to debug it but there are no device detected ...

Does someone have a solution to my problem ?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

PS: sorry if there are language mistakes in what I wrote but i'm French so English is not my birth language.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
You have 2 options right now. You can either just install stock ROM, or if you have Linux in you computer you can use sde to mount data partition to your PC and moving the ROM again in there.

Installing stock ROM is easier and faster, so I recommend doing that. You remember how it goes? Download latest firmware from achos' site an use firmware update option located in sde.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
I think I already tried that : download the aos file from the official site of archos, go in recovery mode, chose upgrade firmware and copy the aos file to the drive which appears on my computer then chose ok ???

If it is that I tried and I got an error message "update failled : 221".

So if it is that could you explain me more how to do it with linux, i'm not sure I understood everything.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
Okay.

That 221 sounds weird.

After booting in to Linux (livecd is sufficient, I recommend Ubuntu or variant of it), open the sde in archos and navigate to data mount option. I can't remember what it is called, but should be something like mount data partition. Then plug your tablet to PC running Linux, and the PC should find the tablet.

You should now be able to browse data on /data partition of the tablet, but writing there requires you to use superuser.

Check the path to data partition. If I remember correctly, it will be something like /media/(device name)/ but I'm not sure.

Navigate to archos.etx4.update file and use this command to move it:

sudo mv archos.ext4.update path-to-data/media/archos.ext4

If /media/path-to-data/media won't work, try using /media/path-to-data/local
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
I don't have mount data partition but I do have "export data partition" and "export hard disk (H models only)" in the developer edition menu, is it what you are talking about ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
Yeah, that is the one: export data partition
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
When I plugged my tablet, ubuntu told that I do not have the authorisation to see the content of the drive ...

Can't I do the same with windows ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
HMM.. That sounds weird, as I do not have that problem. Can you try other Linux? I think backtrack allows you to login as root, so you are able to do anything...

The filesystem of data partition is ext4 I guess... Or ext3. Windows can not read ext filesystem, so you can't use windows.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
Ok I'll try an other version of linux, backtrack is downloading as i'm writing this. I'll get back to you soon.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
Hi julle131, I'm currently using backtrack which as you told allows me without problems to access the data on the tablet.

I'm a little bit lost about what's next to do.

The tablet appears as a drive called "data" in which there a is folder called media as you said, inside it there are a lot of folders for various apps I had installed. If I understood correctly the goal is to find the archos.ext4 file but I can't find it ...

Can I download the archos.ext4 file and put it again on the memory of my tablet to re-install it ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
Yes you can.

Hopefylly after downloading archos.ext4, your tablet will hopefully work normally again :thumbup:
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
So, I copied archos.ext4 to in the media folder of the tablet then in recovery mode, I flashed kernel and initramfs but after that my tablet don't reboot, it don't have the multi boot menu or anything and when I press the start button nothing happens I can only access the recovery menu. Do you have any idea ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
The initramfs you flashed probably does not have multiboot menu. Keep the zImage from the rom you downloaded and get initramfs from this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1578438

when you download the zip, only extract the initramfs.

Then install zImage from the original rom and initramfs from the multiboot menu thread. That should bring the multiboot menu back, and hopefully you can see the new archos.ext4 in there.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
I just tried : Kernel (zImage) not found !
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
What i meant was to take the zImage from the rom you downloaded and initramfs from my link, and install them both.

Make a new folder to the desktop, and extract initramfs from the link i gave you in earlier post.

Now you have a new folder with initramfs inside it. Then put the zImage from the rom you downloaded to the folder.

Now you should have a folder which has initramfs AND zImage, right? Then just install them to the tablet. This way you get the multiboot and the new kernel.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
It's what I did.

I chose flash kernel and Initramfs in the recovery menu and I paste inside the ramdisk the initramfs from your link and the zImage from my ROM.

I tried both version of the initramfs from the link you gave me.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
Any idea, please ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olorin59:
I'm still stuck on the multi boot menu ...

Can someone help me please ?
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
DNA fell out my shirt pocket, landed on the edge and of course shattered. First drop ever.

There's glass on Amazon and ebay for about $15

Then there's glass and LCD together about $70

I've seen the videos and read the articles and they're somewhat conflicting?

How difficult is it realistically to change the screen myself AND get it back together.

I also had the idea of using it to a repair facility at the mall.

Question is address those prices reasonable for a quality screen?

What's the best way to fix the phone reasonably?
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Glass and LCD together is what you want because of the design. The glass and LCD basically become a single piece. If you do just the glass you may have issues with the LCD not properly adhesing and therefore appearing further from the glass. Sometimes the digitizer will have issues after that. Best to spend more money and get both pieces pre-constructed.
[HTC Droid DNA] donnyp1:
Sucks dude, i did mine yesterday. First drop, BAM, right on the corner. Shattered it. I got geek squad at best buy, way better than assurion. No deductible. Broke screen, throw out some sim card issues, brand new dna on the way. Its on back order thougg. Not here in 2 weeks, get free pgone equal or less than dna full price. Geek squad well worth $10 a month!
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
I'm going to order the screen/LCD combo and try it.

Been debating options and i'm keeping this phone until at least November. I'll take photos.
[HTC Droid DNA] yearn2burn:
Best thing is cut losses short and send to HTC. I think it was $220. If you do it yourself more likely than not you'll end up with a bad result, functionally and/or cosmetically. I took my phone to ubreakifix.com and after taking it back twice, they gave up. Sent to HTC and they said the main board was damaged, etc and wanted about $350. So just do it right the first time.
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
I hate to say it but it's not worth $200. They can be found going for less than that on CL in my area .

I am worried about the fitment going back together, it appears from the videos I've studied buying the lcd/glass combo and taking time is the most critical step.

Besides. I've found white screens and a white battery cover! This is hot! I don't like the red buttons but they're better than the red side rails on the DNA. I don't mind losing wireless charging.
[HTC Droid DNA] croppz:
I must have this white screen/battery cover for my phone. Like time now hahaha.
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
I know right.
[HTC Droid DNA] krazya:
Got the white lcd digitizer assembly from ebay. You must still separate the old lcd from the plastic housing. I used super glue to bond it. I love the white with black and am thinking of removing the red side grills.
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
If you don't mind losing the wireless charging apparently you can lose the red rails too.

I'm looking for all the bits to make it white. The sim tray and the ear piece insert are hiding from me.
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
I got lucky.. my screen was cracked too so I took it to my sisters friend shop and they charged me 50$. He ended up ordering the wrong part so he sent it to HTC and I got my phone back in a week. He felt bad about ordering the wrong part so he didn't charge me anything. Only bad thing is that the usb cover is ripped off
[HTC Droid DNA] jake.corey.jacobs:
This may be in hindsight but your next phone purchase really should be at bestbuy if your in the states, and just buy the 2 yr black tie outright (its cheaper in the long run). It covers literally everything (even water damage), and will be replaced within 72 hrs most of the time, it is a refurb, but $0 deductible and no limit to amount of turn ins.
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
[MENTION=3577310]jake.corey.jacobs[/MENTION] I bought this off cl a couple months ago my Galaxy Nexus camera and CPU was showing its age taking and editing photos.

It's sounds stupid but in the last 3 years I've dropped my phone twice! I only have the "extended insurance" in case of a malfunction. I have full insurance my wife's and daughters lines.
[HTC Droid DNA] jake.corey.jacobs:
All good, I use to be a GeekSquad agent and have to admit, their phone insurance is NOT a ripoff (like most of their services). So I always like to share the info about how the plans work for people who are drop happy.
[HTC Droid DNA] croppz:
I removed the side grills and the one in the ear peice up top a while ago. The removal of the side grills made for a better grip when running the phone naked IMO.

How hard was the switch from our screen to the white one?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdspieg:
I am trying to resuscitate an old HTC Desire. Here is where it stands now:

Bravo PVT3 Ship S-on

hboot 0.83.0001

Radio 5.17.05.23

CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.2 v6.3 (which works perfectly- I also have adb over network activated, and it says: 192.168.1.111:5555)

USB is fully bricked - I can't charge it anymore via the usb-port (but I have a recharger); and also can't get usb-access - and I've tried everything that has been suggested here and elsewhere to unbrick it, but it really is dead)

Can somebody please tell me how I can get adb-over-network to work and whether I could get S-OFF that way? When I try connecting, I CAN ping the phone, but I seem unable to connect, as shown here

I have tried with 30' inrtervals, but it never connects. If anybody could point me in the right direction, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdspieg:
Just documenting my own process. I created a goldcard and was able to get back to running an official 2.1 Éclair ROM with PB99IMG.zip. So I now have the following:

SO I guess next step would normally be to upgrade the RUU (e.g. to the 2.2 Froyo RUU), but all the instructions I find use usb. So I'm trying to figure this one out now - still VERY open to any suggestions.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdspieg:
I got there too. Following the instructions in the troubleshooting guide, I was able to get completely back to stock and to re-root again (with the help of Visionary and su). But the the guide recommends to also S-OFF. But I see no section on how to s-off without usb (like the section on root without usb). Could somebody please put me on the right track? Much appreciated.

[HTC Sensation] guyver2:
Hello everyone.

I have a sensation XE, with firmwire 3.33 from this page

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1412618

I am on hboot 1.27 with S-OFF. My problem is that the USB does not charge (and will not detect for SDcard access) when I boot up on my phone on the AOSP 4.2.2 Jellybean KANG ROM, or the Android Revolution HD 7.3 Rom. However, if I switch the phone off and plug in the USB cable it charges OK. Also if I go into CWM, I can mount the SDcard via the USB with no problem. So I am assuming this is some sort of software issue I am having? If anyone can give me some advice I would be grateful. Thanks for your time.

I have the same issue. Only work around is to download kernel tuner and toggle off USB otg on misc tweaks. I have to toggle it a couple times to work right.

Thanks for the suggestion elheat77, when you mentioned the kernel, I remembered that in Android Revolution HD you had a choice of two, so I choose the Sense Faux Kernel instead of the other one, in the chance it might make a difference and now everything works. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reno_79:
Hi all,

My gf got rid of her S3 yesterday after lots of problems and upgraded to the S4 Active on Voda UK. Great phone so far, but she's having a weird problem where on reboot or shutdown it takes well over 2 minutes to actually power off. The screen goes black as usual, but the notification light pulses blue until it finally vibrates and powers off. It starts up in what seems a normal amount of time.

Has anyone else found this issue or know what it might be?

The phone itself is completely stock and nothing untoward appears to be running in the background which might be blocking the powerdown.

Thanks in advance

[HTC Butterfly S] tsokh:
Hi, everyone.

I have a question if somebody is able to copy or move applications to external sd card either with rooted stock or custom rom. What applications or mods did you do to enable such option?
[HTC Butterfly S] kenny0202:
Im having the same problem as well. my Internal storage is half way getting there and None of the apps that I installed does not have the option to be transferred to ext_SD
[HTC Butterfly S] tsokh:
Ok, after 2 days of searching over the web and forums I found a workaround for moving apps on external SD (working only on rooted phones).

1) Download and install FolderMount program from Google Play store.

2) Open the program, tap on "+", enter name (any alias), source folder of the app, and destination (external sd with the same folder already created or choose automatic method), then tap on check mark.

3) Wait till the program copies the application to external sd and creates link. After you need to tap on pin icon and it'll turn to green.

If you get some notification, just click "Yes".

P.S.

Don't delete the folder with the moved app in your internal memory, as it'll also delete the app from external SD. If you want to check if the program moved, unpin the program and browse to the app folder in your internal memory and you won't see the files there. FolderMount creates the link to the application in internal memory to trick Android. Every time Android requests the application, it passes the request to its internal memory and after goes via the link to external SD. That is the only trick that worked for me.
[HTC Butterfly S] kenny0202:
I read on the butterfly 901s/e forum thread and it said something about fat32
[HTC Butterfly S] tsokh:
I have Kingston 64gb formated in FAT32, don't know if Android works properly with exFAT or ext format. You can't format 64gb SD card in FAT32 with Windows, but you can install other partition wizards like Minitool Partition Wizard to format it.
[HTC Butterfly S] SquareBare:
Does the old setinstalllocation trick work here?
[HTC Butterfly S] tsokh:
If you mean "set pm install location" command, then no. I tried that trick, however programs didn't even install on internal memory after I used the command. I left it as default "0".
[HTC Butterfly S] SquareBare:
Thanks a lot. I think I can do everything I need to do with foldermount so it should all work out.

Also got a 70mbps read SD card! Phone comes in later today!
[HTC Butterfly S] daorderdillon:
Does the micro SDXC work in the butterfly s
[HTC Butterfly S] tsokh:
Yes, works with microSDXC up to 64gb in FAT32, couldn't manage to use external sd card in other formats like exFAT or NTFS.
