Go to "Setting" on your phone then navigate to "Backup & Reset" then choose "Factory Reset Device"

thanks!,I did it, but stills scares me that i'm not able to use ''Factory'' or ''BP tools'' from there

Same here it never worked for me so i rooted and installed Custom Recovery and am using that if i ever need to factory wipe my device.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trisse23:
Friends phone and it wont get into download mode or recovery mode. It is showing the kies bricked stuff and when I charge it goes for 10 sec and then it reboots with the same image. The phone gets warm and tried with 2 batteries so it should charge right? Ordered a jig for my own phone and will try it on this one and see if it woorks. Some additional thoughts?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vivek_Neel:
No.

Only jig.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Patrick.nl:
First of all i want to say thank you to all the people here who develop all the things to make us customize our phone in any way possible!!

Well.. My question. sorry if it is a stupid question.

After trying different themes and launchers i just want the original stock os/theme but to be able to change the icons, menu's, dock (and so on) to my wishes. Al of that i can do except for the icons (app icons) and the homescreen dock. (without using a launcher app)

So in my search I found xposed hoping to find an answer to the annoying homescreen dock on the samsung.. But i'm stuck with the original homescreen dock. I don't want the dock.. It's to big.. Don't like the (big) icons.

In my original samsung menu i can't seem to find a way to change the grid size, app size or to remove the dock whole.. Am i missing something?

Anyone have a solution for me?

Help would be truly appreciated!!

thanks and for all a very nice weekend!

Greeting from Patrick (NL)

I kind of liked this. But, I'm finding it does NOT work with different launchers. I'm currently using Apex Launcher and there's no pinch out function. Is there a way to make the phone recognize the pinch out feature and work anyway?

Guys I updated my Z1 to the latest 4.3, but now when I want to restore my phone data via PCC, the phone just restarts itself and the PCC can not finish the operation. Any ideas ?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x102x96x:
updating firmware wouldn't change ur data!

for troubleshooting ur problem test these

1. exit PCC and then run it and try

2. use original usb cable

3. try different pc (transfer backup data to another pc and try)

4. try different usb port

5. make sure about directory of backup and restore (if u change it)

6. for that date u make this thread sony pcc and lots of another services of sony had problem so try now ;)

:good:
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vippo321:
Thanks, but I tried almost everything you mentioned up there exceot different PC, I dont have another right now, but with no luck. Phone still restarting... I updated the phone via flashtool, so before update I have made a backup because I knew the update will wipe my data.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
For backing up and restoring I always use Google for contacts and hangouts /messages. And for apps I use titanium. Obviously this requires root for the titanium part. Pics and music are usually kept on the SD. Using the desktop software should work , not sure why it wouldn't.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IE-coRe:
I tried CM11 nightlys recently and i was impressed with the performence, especially with PPSSPP running much better and with constantly high FPS and speed. Also in GTA San Andreas i was able to run it with much higher visuals while still playing smooth.

However what bothers me about CM is the terrible speaker quality, just exceptable battary life and over all i prefer Sense UI.

So yesterday i flashed the updated version of maximus HD (wich is the best stock rom in my opinion) and yeah, its awesome, i love the UI, normal UI performence and bettary life is great and also the speaker sounds much better. Gaming is not bad, for most games that are not that intensive performence is more then good enough but as soon as it comes to PPSSPP and San Andreas its just not as smooth. I tried to gain better gaming performence by flashing elementalX kernel and clocked the CPU to 1.8 ghz and the GPU to 450 mhz. (I never overclocked anythingh with CM)

And yeah the performence is a tiny bit better but nothing compared to CM.

Why is that the case and and is there any way to either bring gaming performence on stock to a CM level or bring at least improove the speaker quality on CM?

Also can anyone report how google edition 4.4 performs? I never tried is becouse i am still S-ON.

Please share your thoughts :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] lwolf25:
Hi all,

So yesterday I decided I wanted to run a custom ROM on my phone. Went ahead and installed safestrap (3.65 I believe) it seemed to work like it was supposed to and as soon as I booted into safestrap I made a backup of my stock ROM, just because I never knew if I was going to need it. After that I went on my phone and tried moving some pictures to my SD card to free up space for the ROM slot. Well I ended up somehow deleting the pictures. I assumed that the backup I made would have all those pictures. So I went ahead and tried to do a restore from safestrap. Everything went fine until reboot. Now im stuck at the Samsung screen with the "custom unlock logo". I have researched all over google and havent found a similar situiation or a real fix yet. Ive tried clearing cache, and factory reset. Both leave me at the same screen. Any help is appreciated. Also, Im on MF3

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] RulinSmoove:
I need the .exe or .cab file from the voice dialing program that the Cingular 8125 uses. My girlfriend has the Sprint PPC-6700 and whenever she sees me use the voice dial feature she goes "ahh I want that too!" Is it possible to download somewhere and install on her PPC-6700 so she too can use the feature?

Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zobie:
Get MS voice command.. its better..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] RulinSmoove:
I know about that... but I wanted to see if I could get the Cingular 8125 app instead of that. Thanks though.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] cjasus730:
It is called Cyberon Speed Dial.

You will have to google around for it though.

(Might also find it flying around here...).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kyphur:
Get the AKU2 Update from Sprint

A simple Google search revaled that the Cyberon Voice Dialer is included in the AKU2 Update for that device..

MS Voice Command is 100 times better though.
[Nook Touch General] jdbow75:
My NST Glowlight is getting replaced due to hardware failure.

When I get the new device, could/should I restore my existing backup that I made using NookManager? Or should I just restore the apps (using Titanium Backup, for instance)?

I am hoping I can be lazy and just restore my latest backup image.

Should be the same device, firmware, etc. Just different serial numbers, I assume.

Jonathan
[Nook Touch General] straygecko:
NookManager will restore everything including your ROM partition which has all of your device specific stuff like the serial number and keys for communications with B&N. You don't want to wipe out your new devices ROM partition. The very first thing you should do with your new device is make a backup and save it somewhere safe. Then you can backup your ROM partition from your new Nook before you restore the NookManager backup and then restore the ROM partition after. Probably easiest to do this with ADB - adb shell to mount the partition and ADB pull it over to your PC. Then push it back after restoring the NookManager backup.
[Nook Touch General] jdbow75:
OK, so the only partition I need to retain on the new device is the ROM partition? That makes sense.

This is how I imagine doing this:

Backup the new device using noogie or NookManager

Using dd (I am on Linux), extract the ROM partition to its own separate image

Boot new device using noogie

Use dd to restore the backup I had previously made from the old device

Used dd to put the new ROM partition on the new device, overwriting what I just put there

All should be well, then, yes?
[Nook Touch General] jdbow75:
Ah, now I understand your first suggestion. That may be easiest, and remove some of my steps. Thanks!
[Nook Touch General] straygecko:
Yep that's the ticket.
[Nook Touch General] jdbow75:
Hmmmm... The plot thickens.

Browsing around the backup, I notice that there are copies of the rom in factory/rombackup.zip and factory/factory.zip/romrestore.zip and boot/romrestore.zip, although rombackup.zip is the only full copy.

Do I need to worry about these, or will they automatically be updated from the new device?

Of course, I could just restore the NOOK, system and userdata partitions, leaving factory, boot, rom, and cache untouched.

Thanks so much for your input.
[Nook Touch General] straygecko:
Glad you're looking around. I never thought about those. They won't be a problem for day-to-day use. Those other copies are used for when you invoke the factory restore function.

The partitions you listed to restore will work except that /boot/uRamdisk is modified to root the Nook so if you don't restore the boot partition you'll lose root. Probably easiest to replace uRamdisk on the new Nook with the one from your current Nook.

Also does anyone have the script to get the msl as well. Yes I know it's gsm but Im pretty sure it's going to prompt me for that as well. I bought a note 3 with imei issues and would like to fix it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Veritas Ent:
Ditto

I see the same screen just says diag config and nothing. I'm on the CNB4 firmware still though. I upgraded to the DNE6 but realized too late that I wouldn't be rooted and couldn't find a root solution quick enough so I just restored a backup via TWRP. Yes it does work, I have seen skepticism in the forums about TWRP Restores.

OP As for wanting help reaching the DIAG Menu, what Diagnostic are you trying to get to? You may want to visit this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2754957 About the hidden service menu. They list alot of dial codes that you may could use to accomplish your task.

What specifically are you trying to get a diagnostic of? Do you want the screen that allows you to do all the hardware tests? Do you want the menus that allow you to change internal settings? Which diag menu / mode are you trying to reach?

Then boot back into system the SuperSU app should be in your app drawer. Open it, allow it to disable Knox, and then proceed to update the binaries. You should be golden after that. Make sure to give [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] a huge thanks while you're at it.

Essentially rooting only consists of two things on the Sprint (and also therefore Virgin Mobile and Boost, all three are SPH-L710) SGS3: installing a custom recovery via Odin, and then using that recovery to flash the SuperSU zip file.

[Asus Transformer TF701] JamZo:
Hi,

Bought the official transcover (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/New-ASUS-Gen...rs_Keyboard_Folios&hash=item2a34948a1e&_uhb=1) which was quite expensive but totally worth it.

The only thing I find annoying with it is that with the cover closed you can't charge the tablet... so I was thinking of making a hole with a construction knife so the USB connector can be plugged in with the cover closed. I was just wondering if anyone tried this already? And if so what would you recommend to use to make the hole?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF701] Owendavies:
I'd say the bit you cut through looks very cutable, so probably just a sharp craft knife or something similar. Maybe mark it up first and be careful! Need all those fingers to operate it :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jukiewalsh:
There's a bunch of guides and info out there on overclocking and even underclocking the max cpu, however when it comes to changing the minimum CPU speed I can't find much and recently I have heard much different things than what I had assumed and had been told in the past. So I was wondering if anyone could give me a rundown on a few things.

Does lowering the minimum cpu value to around/below 100 MHz help save battery or does it hurt battery life since it takes longer to finish tasks at that clock speed? And in regards to finishing tasks, what is an optimal speed for the minimum cpu? And lastly, how much impact does the minimum CPU value have on the system and battery and is the savings (if any) worth it?
