That's a terrible title.

Anyways, I had to install Cyanogen from scratch the other day because my upgrade attempt failed. It's been a while since I've started fresh so I figured it was about time anyways. So, as I do in times like these, I have slowly been going through and restoring my apps and settings. There were a few that I did not get to last night, but started working on this morning.

And now I realize that Titanium Backup ran last night and since I it was only set to save one backup, I no longer have backups for the apps that I didn't get to last night! Usually TB doesn't start it's scheduled backups right away, in the past, I have had to go into the program and enable them again. I guess not anymore! So now I have many apps that don't have a good backup since they were not configured prior.

Did I loose anyone? I'm just a little flabbergasted right now and am a little pissed to be honest. One of the apps is a game that I actually spent REAL money on building up and now all progress is lost! I know it's just a game, but it was REAL money!

One more strange thing, I didn't bother restoring most apps last night anyways because usually it's just a log in and stuff is back to normal, so no big deal. But the ones that I did try to restore in TB, it didn't seem to work anyways. I still had to enter login information in for example.

It's all just kinda weird and I'm not sure what to make of this. My old ROM was Cyanogen 10 and the new one is the latest and greatest 11. I wonder if the backups are stored in a different place? But then why would TB appear to have found them and load the data? I don't know. This just doesn't make sense to me.

Any suggestions or ideas out there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Maphack:
it sounds like you have old nandroids? there is an option in titanium backup that allows you to get app data from nandroid backups.

not sure if i answered your question, and you might already have knowledge of this, but if not it should solve your problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ned4spd8874:
Ah, thanks, I never noticed that before. However, I apparently made the backup with ROM Manager. Dang it...so close!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rgrossie:
So, if you have a nandroid can't you just restore that nandroid (and thereby get your data back), then do a titanium backup to capture the data you want, then go through the whole thing again but do it right this time? Wouldn't that work?

Oh yeah, and copy the TiBu data to your SD card or computer as a safeguard too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Maphack:
shouldn't matter... i've been able to pull from both twrp and cwm i'm pretty sure...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ned4spd8874:
Unfortunately no. I get the MD5 checksum mismatch error. It appears that I ran out of space on my SD card and didn't realize it when I made the backup. Hence, it's not a complete backup.

I was able to combine the 5 tar files into one tar last night. However it did freeze up when I tried extracting. I will play with it some more tonight when I get home.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgerbasio:
Hi,

I'm hoping I could get some help from you guys with the compass on my N5. I'm not sure if there is a problem with the phone or if the compass just isn't accurate in a phone. What's your experience? Is your compass accurate in Maps or using a compass app?

Google sent me a replacement N5 for my GPS, it works well on the new phone. However, the compass setting is always wrong. It points in the wrong direction using Google Maps and if I use the compass apps, it is inaccurate to the point I know I'm facing north but it tells me east. I tried the calibration suggestions (figure 8, three axis) and that seems to work for a while but in a short time it's back to false readings.

Google said they'll send me another phone, but I hate to just keep sending phones back. I do use the compass on google maps when I'm walking in NYC downtown looking for a street so it is something I use. Thanks.

Seidio is working on the Convert case for the N5 which they already made for the Nexus 4. Check this video to see what it looks like:

The Ballistic SG Maxx I guess could be called water resistant, it has port covers for the USB and audio ports, and a screen protector, but the speakers, mics and camera are not covered. It could protect your phone from some splashes, but certainly not from submersion.

hi all

i have 2GB SD card

i put it in digital camera and format it

now it readed as 1GB

is there any sw that format SD to specific size coz when i try fromat it , it formated as 1 GB

best regards

MAK
[General Topics] Cynagen:
Get an SD usb reader for your pc, destroy the partition in windows system manager. (Rightclick on 'My Computer' and choose Manage.) Go to the disk manager, and destroy the 1GB partition, and recreate your 2GB, -OR- make another 1GB partition along side it. The camera should ignore one or the other, and just use one of them, so you can have your phone use the other and be able to read the camera's data.

Have fun.

the problem is that windows see it in disk manager as 1GB only

seems the cam make something wrong in the card and not detect anymore as 2 GB

any sw to do reformat again :(

use resco file explorer on your ppc. the camera foramtted it to 1gb because that will be the maximum size sd it can handle!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kapwinnnng:
I accidentally accepted an OTA update a couple of days ago that has really killed the performance of my phone G4. It' been very snappy up to this point. Apps take super long to open, and texting lags for several seconds. Reboots don't fix it, and I haven't added any new apps lately. Since the time the phone rebooted after the OTA update is when it's been having issues.

I'm assuming I'll have to root the phone, or wait for another OTA update to fix it. So, here's what I have:

Software version - L720VPUEMK2

Hardware version - L720.08

Android version - 4.3

Baseband version - L720VPUEMK2

Kernel version - 3.4.0-1927016, SE.INFRA@r0301-10 #1, Sat Nov 16 11:05:09 KST 2013

Build number - JSS15J.L720VPUEMK2

SELinux Status - Enforcing, SEPF_SPH-L720_4.3_0016
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] leaderbuilder:
Since you don't have a custom ROM and aren't rooted this question might best be asked on a Sprint Forum.

I'd be that you have a load of stuff starting at startup (account synch's etc.).

My suggestion would be to spend a few days reading through these forums to understand how to root and add a custom recovery to this device.

Then maybe install an app like Titanium Root/Rom Toolbox etc., to look at what's starting, syncing etc and then freeze or uinstall some of the culprits.

Then maybe install a custom ROM - after you've read and read a bunch.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kapwinnnng:
I can root it no problem. In fact, this is the first Android device that I haven't rooted (worked pretty well out of the box for my needs!) I was just trying to avoid doing that because I just have the time to reconfigure all of my accounts, transfer data, reinstall apps, software bugs and all that crap...

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tdhite:
Hi,

Thanks so much for the effort. I have a question, which relates to ROM flashes in general, and this one in particular:

I notice a couple things maybe you could help me with. First, the radio.img is copied directly to tmp, and thereafter the updater-script calls 'dd' to move it into place. Is it normal to trust the copy and not run a MD5 check on it before running dd?

Also, I notice we use /tmp -- I use PhilZ, which should be the same as TWRP or any solid recovery, but what I'm interested in is how we know there was enough room in /tmp to even copy the thing (absent a MD5 check or at least a test first).

Please understand -- I'm not at all picking on your very helpful work -- just wondering.

Thanks.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Ph33zy:
I think the modified firmware is for 3.04 and not 3.05 (although the zip has been renamed to 3.05). Can anyone confirm?

Edit: maybe it's my phone. I'm pretty sure I have S-OFF (via Rumrunner; I had to do it again recently since I sent my phone to HTC for warranty repairs). When I flash the radio only zip, I still show Baseband 1.00.20.0913_3 and not the latest version.

yes, use fastboot

I did not create the script, I just reused the same one that has been floating around...I have personally flashed this file

Hi All,

I'm trying to flash Full Firmware w/o hboot, boot, recovery (fastboot flashable). My phone is S-OFF. Tried it twice and once finished I'm still showing software version 3.04.651.2. Any ideas?

Thanks,

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] DNarsingh:
This only updates firmware, not software. To get the software number to change, you would have to flash a new rom.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
3.04.651.2 is your software version that will change once you flash a rom based on 3.05

[MENTION=4609217]bigdaddy619[/MENTION] -- always helping, dunno where'd we be sometimes :good:.

Anyway -- asked in another thread but I think it got buried and lost. Couple quickies -- I've not yet flashed firmware alone, always have gone back to stock, got the OTA and then started over.

So, I'd love verification:

1) have to be rooted

2) have to be S-OFF

3) recovery shouldn't matter (we're getting fastboot and into bootloader), right?

4) flash the 'full' firmware (yes, I'll get hboot, but that's fine);

5) reboot back to fastboot when done;

6) reflash recovery (since it appears the full firmware has a recovery in it so PhilZ for me goes away).

Close?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
If you are s-on you will have to lock your bootloader to flash the non-modified firmware then unlock again, which means it will wipe your device. I would suggest getting S-OFF before you do anything.

Did we ever need the 3.05..651.3 update from December 5th?

The Sprint-branded HTC One is currently receiving an OTA update to 3.05.651.3. No, it’s not the upcoming update to Android 4.4 KitKat, as that won’t be coming for a few more months, but it is an important update that fixes the previous issue in which users were presented with a “No SIM Card” message, stating that 4G LTE will not work without the required card.

Here’s the full changelog from Sprint:

RSSI fix

HD Voice Improvements

No-SIM Issue Fixed

Users can begin checking for the update immediately on their devices, or they can wait until their phones notify them of the update automatically. As always, rooted users will most likely lose root with this – the safest option would be to wait for you custom ROM developer to back this update into the latest version of his or her ROM. Everyone else, download and install – and be sure to let us know if you see any other fixes or new bugs!
