[Moto X General] Lacrocious:
I used Helium to transfer from my Samsung S3 over Moto X. It worked pretty well. Most, but not all apps recovered properly. The ones I really wanted the backup of did work.

First, I used Helium to backup the S3 to my SD Card. I copied the folder from the SDCard to my PC.

Then I backed up the Moto X to the SDCard (internal storage) - thus creating the folder it needs so I know where to put the backup files.

Next, I then copied the S3 backup folders over to the Moto X in the recently created backup folder.

These backups now showed up in Helium, allowing me to restore them onto the Moto X.

It wasn't a 100% success, but close enough for me. I didn't try too hard to try again on the ones that didn't work - I just didn't care enough at that point. I just moved forward with the Modo X. Good Luck

[Moto X General] stillthisguy:
As a quick note about the Moto X Toolkit. The way it is written right now, backing up a single app would require root, also apps with no data. The options for Apps w/data and Apps/Data/SDCard use adb backup. I should probably update it...
[Moto X General] DogzOfWar:
First off, Moto X Toolkit is fantastic, so thanks very much for your hard work there!

I do think some more options for non-root users would be popular. A non-scientific survey of users on XDA and the Google+ Moto X community seems to have more non-root power users than you'd think. I think that mostly speaks to how great the X is out of the box.

If you do update the toolkit, I'd be happy to test on my non-root device.
[Moto X General] ssmcquay:
Moto X to Moto X

I had to get a new Moto X (switched carriers) and want to transfer app data between the two phones. I'm not rooted so the toolkit doesn't seem to be working for back-up purposed and Helium doesn't appear to be working (it's just spinning). Any advice?
[Moto X General] neeraj1212:
helium is crap,not restoring data,for subway surfer,it gives error,for sms it shows restore,but doesn't actually does it

---------- Post added at 09:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------

not only motorola devices,helium cant backup/restore other phones too
[Moto X General] DogzOfWar:
I think the problem with Helium is that it relies on built-in Android backup capabilities and not all OEMs are doing a great job implementing them. Other tools (like Titanium Backup or MyBackup Root) are much more raw, copying entire folder and subfolders (but requiring root access to do so).

Personally, I've had good luck with Helium for backing up at least. Restoring? Not so much, thus the original intent of this article.
[Moto X General] aviwdoowks:
What do Y'all make of the stellar reviews for the newest Helium Premium build on Play, for the X?

Edit I mean, anyone have feedback about the paid version & the Op?
[Moto X General] aviwdoowks:
The latest free version errors out when trying to install. Anybody else? 442.
[Moto X General] aviwdoowks:
Bump, nobody using Helium Premium?
[Moto X General] DogzOfWar:
I used Helium Premium (I'm the OP). It works fine for backing up some apps. I've never gotten it to successfully restore, however. On the Helium page in the Play Store, Koush clearly states that it doesn't work on Motorola devices.
[Moto X General] pm1066:
Also of note, on a non DE version with 4.4.2, you can't even pull up USB debugging anymore. Plus of the 109 apps selected, only 4 were backed up by Helium off my Razr Maxx.

People who say the X doesn't need root never used Titanium backup much, I'm guessing.
[Moto X General] aviwdoowks:
Thanks Dogz...

USB debugging works fine, btw , unrooted.
[Moto X General] aviwdoowks:
I thought I might ask you to give ver. 1140 a try?

All seems much better now.

Who think he/she can help me?

I was trying to completely clean my DHD for my girlfriend. So I wiped is all off via all the information on this forum.

Tried to flash ROM, RUU, Bootloader and Kernel. (after some advices)

Now I have a big problem I think....

I cannot get into my bootloader anymore, my DHD is starting with HTC logo and then continues with Android startup and keep hanging in there.

Vol. down + Power is not getting me into bootloader.

Flashing from CMD does not seem to work either because I cannot get the DHD to connect via USB. (cable is connected to DHD and laptop)

If you can help me.... my girlfriend and I would be much gratefull.

Greetings,

Remco
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droid_ilari:
Have you tried pulling the battery for a minute and the doing the volume down + pwr?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightMouse:
Tried it but that did not help.

Thanks for the reply. Keep helping please.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJeamy:
just tried pull out the battery for long priod..maybe a hours.. then try it again to turn on the phone with pressing n hold volume down+power..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightMouse:
I pulled my battery for about 8 hours, so the length of pulling does not seem to be issue.

But again thanks for helping to find a solution.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJeamy:
what i know is accessed to the phone bootloader it just have two optional way..

first...with pressing and hole volume down+power

second..with adb command while the phone is already booting inside the rom..and off course with already enabling USB debugging too in system settings..

if both way doesn't work to access your bootloader...i think the last change is you must flashing it again the from beginning with RIFF BOX hardware and JTAG software if you have it..or take the phone to services center of HTC..

sorry...can't help more than this..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orion174:
Take the battery out ... put it back in ...close the battery flap .....hold down vol button for 3 seconds ....then click on the power button while still pressing volume down [Maybe your volume down button is broken....i dont think that its dead]...let me know of your progress
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightMouse:
I did that.

It did not work.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orion174:
Does your phone vibrate (4x or 7x) when you turn it on?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightMouse:
It vibrates ones when showing the HTC startup logo.

I am gonna try

I am gonna look where to get this software.

Going to a HTC service centrer wont help I think..... Isnt it like "changing the software yourself will exclude HTC help"??
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJeamy:
the problem is you must find a 3rd party phone services placed on your country that are already have a riffbox or jtag hardware to flashing your phone from the beginning..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightMouse:
I cannot try this, because I dont have a RIFF box. This is hardware.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJeamy:
yap..RIFFBOX is a flashing hardware..

yes i know..if you already broken your phone cause of changing software by your self..htc will not recover your phone under they warranty

you already had loosing your phone warranty.. but i think that's not mean they can't help and fix your phone..off course without warranty (if they already know or detected that you already fault your warranty) then they will charge you with some of cost..

if so..with the hope of luck..then you can try brought your phone to the htc service center..then let they're analyst your phone and make decision about your valid warranty..who knows you already lucky then they don't know what are you already do it previously to that phone..

note : this all mean that's if your DHD is still recover under warranty by time..right..

hopefully your DHD will fixed soon..and good luck.. ;)

Hello everyone.

I have installed CWM by artas182x for locked BL because somehow I couldn't install fastboot drivers.

However, I can't seem to flash latest official CM because of too old version of CWM.

Now, my question is if it's possible to install latest CWM for our phone which is downloaded from official CWM site in .img form via flashify app on the phone? Is it safe and are there any problems possible to encounter?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] lino08:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RatchetM:
Hi. I have a c6806 I bought from Sony Store and updated to 4.3. I downgraded back to 4.2.2 by flashing it with Flashtool. I downloaded the FTF file from the XDA forum. 14.1.B.1.532

After flashing it, I confirmed its now back to 4.2.2. However the problem is that I can no longer connect to AT&T. It doesn't have a signal. I don't know what to do. I looked under Mobile Networks and there is nothing listed under Access Point Names. Any info on what I need to do to get this to work again? Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RatchetM:
NVM sorry. after an hour of researching, I found out that I need to flash a newer rom and got my LTE connection back. If you downgrade back again, make sure you uncheck BANDS in Flashtool. In case someone else runs into this problem.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] g_money:
So, had my s3 for about 10 months. Rooted and running MOAR. Runs great. But, over the past month or 2, I've found myself playing with the settings, to keep my battery alive all day. Just picked up a new battery for xmas (ravpower 2250) and my battery life is great. End of the day and I'm sitting at 72%! Normally about now I'd be at 35%. Running same settings as before (even able to keep brightness higher). I'm happy that I got the results that I did but I'm a bit surprised that it appears my generic battery has started giving out after 10 months? Interested to see if anyone has had similar experiences with a generic battery?

Was gonna go that route, but considered it overkill (also didn't want to bulk up my phone). But now I wonder that if I got an extended battery that lasted 3 days on a recharge, after a year would it drop down to a day and a 1/2. Red a lot about battery issues in the forums, and I'm starting to wonder if some of the problems are just related to an *old* battery?

Honestly i think its the 4.3 because when i was on 4.1.2 i could go two and half days with 15+ hours of screen time, now on 4.3 i get a day and 12 hours with like 10ish hours of screen time if im lucky :(

Hoping you guys can help me out with a problem I've encountered with my cingular 8125 (wizard).

My wizard is brand new, about a week old. No modifications, i.e. box stock. I'm still playing around with it, trying to figure out how everything works. Just out of curiosity I performed a hard reset, to see how that works. And guess what, the thing is not booting up now. :cry:

It's stuck in the cingular startup screen with the radio and os/rom info on it. I've tried to perform another hard and soft reset, but it's not working. What do I need to do to resolve this issue? Help!

Thanks in advance!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Take battery out for 2 hours and leave device not plugged in - for good measure take out the minisd card. should boot up then or you will be able to do hard reset.

let us know how you get on ;)

There are some other threads about this issue but with no simple fixes - search 'stuck on boot screen' or 'wont hard reset'

but i think you have a faulty device and quickest thing is to go and exchange it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ncrivello:

So, for me, I can only play a partial song before it cuts out. Everything else seems to work fine.

I've called LG, and Verizon - they've never heard of the problem (big surprise :( ) . I'll get a hold of Google too but for now, let's try to figure this out.

My guess is a flaky Wifi connection. What is everyone else's opinion based on experience with the LG G2 and Chromecast, and what should we do?

Possible fix in post 23 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=49363241

Edit-It didn't really work.
[G2 General] tmanschuette:
Guessing your right with the WiFi... Have you tried Netflix or YouTube?
[G2 General] 1heffer:
Both work great. As well as hulu.
[G2 General] tmanschuette:
Google's problem then. Netflix would use way more bandwidth streaming music. Chromecast in my opinion is still pretty beta, and new updates cone about once a month, so maybe they'll fix it.
[G2 General] 1heffer:
I see your point, and you're not wrong but...

It works flawlessly on every other device I've used(sgs3, og incredible, iphone 4s, iphone 5,pc...etc.). This leads me to believe that something is screwy with the g2. Just looking for a meantime solution until this is worked out.

Edit-

Also, according to Verizon and LG this isn't a problem. So, maybe not even on their radar. Going to get to Google tonight but I'm guessing I'll get the same song and dance - "not our problem, call lg" or/ "not our problem, call Verizon".
[G2 General] tmanschuette:
Surround or HDMI? I don't have my G2 yet because my first one was a lemon, so I can't check for you...

Have you tried streaming from your PC? There is an extension for chrome that will cast a tab from your browser to chromecast, you could try that.
[G2 General] 1heffer:
Of course I did. I didn't post a new thread without extensive googly searching for a solution.

I do however appreciate your input.

[G2 General] ricecake2000:
I have had that issue with any music app. Pandora slacker spotify and play music. I think it's a g2 issue. Ironically I haven't had any issues when playing on the chromecast.

Maybe the g2 cuts playback thinking your no longer using the app and it needs to conserve battery?
[G2 General] 1heffer:
I tried another app from the play store that keeps Wifi awake while the screen is off and I got 4 songs to play in a row before it disconnected. This is a record for me, but not a fix. My Galaxy s3 will play for hours on end with no interruption.
[G2 General] 1heffer:
G2 issue. LG customer service blames it on Google. Verizon blames it on LG. Google doesn't say ****.
[G2 General] 1heffer:
Maybe if we can get a logcat or two together of the Chromecast disconnect issue, it could help zero in on the cause. I don't think I'll have time until probably Sunday...

The next step would be to find someone to interpret said logcat.

I think I found a suitable work around. What I did was to set up a static ip on my g2. I used this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roamingsoft.manager

I connected to the network 1st, then let it fill in the fields automatically under ip settings, checked "use static ip" and saved.

It seems to be working great so far, let me know how it works out for those of you that have this problem.
[G2 General] Tjotte:
Get https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer and check if you are using the same Wifi Channel as a bunch of neighbours, is so, switch to a low populated channel. Some Apple devices don't like high channel numbers though but just test and see! :)
[G2 General] 1heffer:
Yeah, I can't find a spot that doesn't overlap. Been there. But you might be right about locking in to one channel rather than leaving the router on auto.

I'm getting decent results with the static ip, though not 100% fixed.

I'm hoping this issue will be resolved when the kitkat ota drops.

One big thing a lot of people don't realize is that wireless is half duplex...

If you have 2 devices on the same wireless network transferring data between each other, they will do so at half the speed, because only one device can talk at a time.

Say for example you have a PC wired to your router, and another PC on wireless.. You can copy a file between these computers at around 6MB/sec. Now you take the wired PC and connect it to the same wireless network instead. You will notice your copy speed is now around 3MB/sec.

If you are utilizing a wireless repeater to connect any of your devices to your wifi network, those connected to the repeater will experience the same halving of speed as well.

This is why having your local media source on a different band or wired helps so much.
[Google Chromecast] sherdog16:
Here's a scenario I would appreciate your comment on:

I have a bridge that connects to my main router. The media source (laptop) is connected direct to the bridge which is in the living room with my CC, the CC is wireless to the bridge. Will the distance the bridge is from the main router come into play if doing local media?
