script for gunzip method

maybe on xda it is common sense, but for me it was necessary to know, that these stock android recovery extracted files can be restored with nandroid custom recovery, if you simply repack them into tar archive.

i put this two command lines in a dirty shell script (extract + repack as tar).

thanks to ektoric figuring out his gunzip method!

edit: notamamasboy's mount method added (but not tested yet). if script not works come back few days later, download again and check version, maybe it has changed meanwhile.

with this you're able to transfer data of non-rooted phone to (rooted) similar one.

this is useful in case touchscreen is broken, you haven't custom recovery installed, usb-debugging is disabled and connecting usb-otg-mouse doesn't work.

tested on my Archos 50 b Oxygen (Mediatek MT6582).

it works for me, feel free to improve, port to busybox and publish. no support. use at own risk.

edit: bckp2cwm.sh is deprecated it is FOR JELLY BEAN ONLY (no selinux support)

a newer (selinux) version bckp2win.sh for TWRP you can find here:

How did you go about determining the magic number found at 0x200? My hexdump output does not have that magic number (1f 8b) in any instance. Leads me to believe my backup is not a tar file. Any suggestions then?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ektoric:
[MENTION=1807850]notamamasboy[/MENTION], you are unfortunately correct.

Someone else also mentioned that their

userdata_xxxxxxxx_yyyyyy.backup

file was not of the same format :( I tried some "known magic headers", and could not find anything tell-tale. In which case, without some clues, you are back at square one. :(

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] NullMind:
I'm just so excited I had to post, I got my Powerbook (OSX 10.4) and my XDA Exec working together, the Exec as a Bluettoth modem thru O2

SO now I am able to browse the web/get emails on my Powerbook using the EXEC as a GPRS/3G modem .. Anywhere :)

All I had to do was:

1 - Flash be bios with the Jasjar one (??) (I had done this before, I dont know if it works with the O2 bios, I will assume it will)

2 - On EXEC, start Bluettoth and make it discoverable, run "Wireless modem" under programs .. enable Bluettoth modem in "Wireless Modem"

3 - on Powerbook, Setup a new Bluetooth device, choose "any device" . it will find the Jasjar/Exec .. pair them.

4 - On PB, go to "internet connect" .. click on bluettoth, create a new config with:

Description: O2 Web

Tel. Number: *99#

user: mobileweb

passwd: password

modem: au cdmaOne Bluetooth adapter

then just click "connect" and your on the web (well, at least I am) :)

good luck

I can confirm it's working with DOPOD 900 chinese rom with HongKong Sunday GPRS.

The problem of MAC can't connect with old version of wireless modem (e.g. wireless modem on XDA Mini) is because there is no option to set the gprs AP, however, it is avalible in unverisal's wireless modem application.

Moreover , au cdmaone bluetooth adaptor is the only working modem setting with universal.

I am looking for this solution since a got my Powerbook G4! Thanks!!!!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] chainsawbeer:
I've got it working with my powerbook as well on tmobile US over GPRS. Really wish we had UMTS available over here :-( It was actually much easier to get working with my QTEK 9000 than with the PDA2k. There is a secret to getting older ones to work though in 10.4 You need to get a copy of the bluetooth serial utility which allows you to create ports, and then you use GPRS modem scripts and completely circumvent the wireless modem software on the phone itself. If anybody needs the bluetooth app (it came iwth older versions of os X but not X.4) or the scripts, lemme know

i dunno about where you are mate but here in Hong Kong we got two operators with unlimited GPRS plans for HK$128 a month. i'm on the Sunday one (as mentioned above with the Powerbook dude, i'm gonna try it on my dad's powerbook tonight too) and there's another operator called Peoples that offers the same thing.

that's like 13 euros a month, or 16USD...somewhere around that figure.

[Moto X Q&A] juancaperez2000:
Im not sure if this is the right place to this topic, if not please move it to right one please.

So now that all 4 major carriers got acces to Moto Maker and a lot of us are getting phones on that way i would like to know how Asurion be handling the replacements, are we getting same colors or not? If yes that means that we could get a brand new phone?, please shere here what you know about it
[Moto X Q&A] shane1:
I think your best bet would be to email asurion themselves.
[Moto X Q&A] xKrisx:
I know for a fact that Sprint Moto X devices purchased through Moto Maker are not covered by TEP"Assurion". They sent out a bulletin on it at work.

Assurion states that it would cost to much to match customization of moto maker devices and without changing there coverage agreements to replace with standard devices it was easier to choose not to cover the devices.

Imprinted directly to your mind via a Moto X
[Moto X Q&A] Rhiannon224:
Call Motorola, for $85 you can purchase extended warranty and it covers accidental damage but not loss or theft. It's a $35 deductible.
[Moto X Q&A] tnt118:
I'm not sure this is an option for Verizon. I've heard Verizon won't allow it? If anyone can link to where you add Moto's coverage to your phone it would be much appreciated.
[Moto X Q&A] juancaperez2000:
Do u have phone by moto maker? If yes could u check if u still having the insurance option in ur plan? Thanks
[Moto X Q&A] juancaperez2000:
Ill be calling VZW tomorrow and try to find out, keep you updated
[Moto X Q&A] Rhiannon224:
Don't call Verizon call Motorola, they are the one you get it from. Register your device on their website.

Yes I have a Moto Maker T Mobile Varian. Because their website hasn't updated my tracking information as sent or delivered the option isn't appearing for me in their online website but I have been assured in several calls with Motorola that it should be available for me to purchase. I got a follow up call from a different department calling from a Texas number and they have escalated my request to another department. They have to have the web master fix said issue with their website.

AFAIK, this warranty extends your one year of coverage to two years and includes accidental damage coverage. If you plan to unlock your bootloader it's voided upon requesting the unlock code.
[Moto X Q&A] juancaperez2000:
I upgrade by Verizon they charge me for the phone, Verizon just gave me the pin that need to be loaded on my check out that why im guessing Verizon shoud take care of my phone or asurion even a did not get an warranty offer from Motorola at any point of my customization only offer for accesories, will see if asurion or big red dot cover me maybe ill be returning the phone
[Moto X Q&A] tnt118:
Can type a little better now that I don't have a cat on my lap...

I've heard from a couple different people that Motorola is saying Verizon will not let them sell their insurance on a Moto X. I've had two reps tell me it *should* be possible but no one can give me a link to where I sign up. To be honest I think these reps are mis-informed and it is not possible.

In a chat with Verizon a couple of days ago, they tell me it's possible to add Asurion to a MotoMaker Moto X as long as it is done within 30 days of purchase. I have zero idea how a repair/replacement might be handled on a customized device.
[Moto X Q&A] juancaperez2000:
I got all my devices with insurance with warranty extended and when i upgrade i did not change nothing but i can not confirm how my plan going to be because i dont have the phone with me yet, so i should have insurance but not sure how going to work i hope if i need to replace (knock on the wood) ill get the same color
[Moto X Q&A] 640k:
FYI Moto has an agreement with Asurion to guarantee that you will get an exact replacement of your device if you have coverage. They will overnight you a Moto X while yours is being built, so that you can have a phone while you wait.

you, just got me lol im about to post the same info lol, and also the manufacture warranty will be covered by Motorola for one year **Restrictions applied, will se what happen if you have Total Equipment Coverage that is extended warranty by Verizon which mostly all the times is covered with "CERTIFIED PRE OWND" phone which reduce the chance to get either white or black

Asurion Covers Moto X

Great question juancaperez2000!

We do cover the Moto X™ for most major carriers. Like most stores, we will carry the black and white versions of the phone. If you have a customized design, simply give us a call when filing your claim to discuss your options. You can find the policy terms and conditions for each of the carriers we cover here: www.phoneclaim.com. Thanks for the great question! We are here to help if you need us.

[Moto X Q&A] easting:
OK, so I have filed a claim with my Verizon MotoX, which was customized through Motomaker. The phoneclaim.com website offers that I can accept a black or white version, or I can wait 3-7 days while mine is on backorder. It's been 5 days, I've called Asurion, trying to verify that I was doing it right but I can only get their automated system to say it's on backorder. Am I doing it wrong?
[Moto X Q&A] easting:
Been 7 days.

[Moto X Q&A] Cozume:
What are the options if you have a 32GB Developer Edition phone? These have woven white backs with white fronts and silver accents. They have unlockable bootloaders and the warranty remains if you unlock the bootloader.

---------- Post added at 01:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 AM ----------

Ok so that means they will send you a brand new Moto Maker customized version just like the one you filed a claim on?
[Moto X Q&A] easting:
I called again today, 7th business day and all. Still on back order, but the girl said it should be exactly like my customized version.
[Moto X Q&A] Cozume:
brand new?
[Moto X Q&A] easting:
She implied it would be new because they would likely never have any particular combo in stock ( FYI mine is olive drab, orange accents, black face).
[Moto X Q&A] easting:
I got notification late yesterday and completed my claim. The phone should be here today, I'll let you know if it's new/refurb and if it's the same customization as what I did with MotoMaker.
[Moto X Q&A] AsurionCares:
Asurion Claim - Which Phone Will I Get?

If you have a customized Moto X, we will offer the black or white standard operating edition to get you reconnected as quickly as possible. If you don't mind waiting a few extra days, we will work with you to replace your custom Moto X design with the standard operating system. We do not offer the developers edition as a replacement. Hope that helps! We are here if you have any further questions.

Thanks!

[Moto X Q&A] easting:
What a disappointment. I just received my replacement phone from Asurion, and it's black. I waited 9 days in a backorder status for a customized version like my original phone. Yet all I have is this black phone. If this is what you were going to send, then why didn't you send it 9 days ago and why did you make me wait 9 days?

My experience with this program has been total crap. Guess it doesn't matter though, because you got my money. From this point on, I highly recommend people seek other means of insuring their smartphones.

EDIT: After calling Asurion to express my displeasure in receiving an unlike phone, they told me I should have been talking to a totally unique department that handles MotoX only. They transferred me and talked to a lady who verified my configuration, then jumped on the Motomaker website and ordered a new one. This is what should have happened from the very beginning. My new phone will be here on the Feb 21.
[Moto X Q&A] Roland Stone:
My Verizon Developer Edition that I bought during the one day sale is already showing an unacceptable degree of scuffing and screen microscratches. I really wish I'd put on a screen protector immediately. It seems that all Gorilla Glass is not created equal, because my GNex never had this problem.

I'm actually considering paying the $120 ($85 + $35 deductible) just to start over. Do you think tMotorola would send me a new Dev Edition under the extended warranty? Or under the regular warranty?
[Moto X Q&A] Cozume:
Thank you for letting us know this!

---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

If you are on Verizon and have the TEC (total equipment coverage), then it is Asurion insurance for a cracked screen. I don't think they replace devices for cosmetic issues like scratches on the glass and scuffs on the case. The deductible is $99 and you won't get a Dev Ed back.

Verizon customers cannot get MotoCare warranty.

You can try and see if Motorola will help you under their standard warranty. Please let us know how it goes.

Need phone replaced! Been dealing with Asurion for a week now.

I have a customized Moto X 2nd Gen. On New Years day I dropped my phone and broke the screen. I have been dealing with Asurion for a week now, and after filing a claim and being sent the wrong replacement phone, I was informed that they "don't have my phone in stock." I don't see why I am paying insurance on this phone if my insurance provider doesn't even carry my model.

Hey, I wanted to check if anyone else had luck locking rotation in landscape? Seems I cannot do it. Every time I do disable rotation it changes to portrait and sticks with that - any ideas?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightyT01:
Yes, same here. I just used the widget, rotation lock from google play and it works. Don't use the LG one. Just put the widget on your homescreen and you can lock the rotation in portrait or landscape.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wannabe_Hipster:
What specific widget do you use? None of the ones I've tried works, they just return it to portrait mode and lock it in that orientation.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colwellkr:

Rotation Locker by Madmack on Google Play. Works great.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wannabe_Hipster:
This only locks it in portrait mode for whatever reason, even if you hit the toggle while in landscape, it will just return to portrait and then lock.

Thanks, this works, although not flawlessly as it kinda freaks out and switches back and forth between the orientations before locking. :)
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colwellkr:
When disabled it will lock it into portrait because that is the default orientation of the tablet. That is a feature that is to be expected. But when enabled you can freely rotate the lock screen any way that you have the main screen set to be able to rotate to.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wannabe_Hipster:
I understand that, but this leads to a problem when I am laying on my side in bed and watching something in landscape, mainly with the YouTube app, as it thinks I'm using the tablet in portrait mode.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] costas_v:
+1

To be honest I have just bought my G Pad so it s not on it yet.

But I have used the same program on phones and tablets before without problems.

It locked my homescreen in portrait whenever i wanted it too.

the files on the first post in this thread. What I'm trying to do is this. I have two phones that are in boot loops. So looking for a recovery I can load through the scheme of having and pj75img.zip file with twrp or just the stock rom.

I'm sorry if I sounded like a total douche in the previous post. Just too many hits on the search engine that take me to nowhere. And I honestly don't understand what happens to the files.

They were Dropbox links the OP probably just deleted them.

Easiest way to fix your problem is to RUU

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Jay@DoverR&D:
I might have this all wrong but here is my problem. Both phones just endlessly boot the HTC screen go dark and repeat. I can't install the update with fastboot, adb etc because there isn't a system thats running right. I don't thing the PC to phone update will work either for the same reason. I've tried naming what I think was the last stock version by putting it in SDRAM (in the root) and of course naming it PL75IMG.zip If I boot into bootloader it loads the img fine. When I reset its failing the same way. The phone is Security on. I don't know if its rooted because it doesn't get far enough to test. Perhaps I'm not loading a signed file?

You have to be s-off to use PJ75IMG files.

I dont know what all happened but I was unable to flash anything for a few days. Finally I found a PJ755IMG that got me back on 2.10 and I was able to flash again.
