[Glass General] dq11:
I found the following steps useful and thought I should document it for the benefit of others. I did not know that adb has a backup which is useful for non-rooted devices like the google glass where you do not have direct access to /data/app folder via adb shell.

adb backup [-f <file>] [-apk|-noapk] [-obb|-noobb] [-shared|-noshared] [-all] [-system|-nosystem] [<packages...>]

- write an archive of the device's data to <file>.

If no -f option is supplied then the data is written

to "backup.ab" in the current directory.

(-apk|-noapk enable/disable backup of the .apks themselves

in the archive; the default is noapk.)

(-obb|-noobb enable/disable backup of any installed apk expansion

(aka .obb) files associated with each application; the default

is noobb.)

(-shared|-noshared enable/disable backup of the device's

shared storage / SD card contents; the default is noshared.)

(-all means to back up all installed applications)

(-system|-nosystem toggles whether -all automatically includes

system applications; the default is to include system apps)

(<packages...> is the list of applications to be backed up. If

the -all or -shared flags are passed, then the package

list is optional. Applications explicitly given on the

command line will be included even if -nosystem would

ordinarily cause them to be omitted.)

I used "adb backup -nosystem -apk -all -f backup.ab" to backup all my apps

You can then use http://sourceforge.net/projects/adbextractor/ to validate the integrity of the backup

anand@awrtc:~/android-backup-extractor-20130526-bin$ java -jar abe.jar info

Android backup extractor

Cipher.getMaxAllowedKeyLength("AES") = 128

Strong AES encryption disabled, MaxKeyLenght is < 256

Please install Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files 7

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce-7-download-432124.html

Usage:

info: abe info <backup.ab> [password]

unpack: abe unpack <backup.ab> <backup.tar> [password]

pack: abe pack <backup.tar> <backup.ab> [password]

Works like a champ!

Hope this helps someone like me who did not know about adb backup prior to now.

[Android Stick & Console Computers General] LOMAO:
Hello,

I'm looking at a firmware of a box called: ATN-500

The firmware is all those files:

I'm trying to decipher the structure of an android firmware.

Suppose I wanted to write special code or customize something, is there a common knowledge that for example such a file is common for all machines and another file for example is intended to contain custom functionalities.

By the way, is there a way I could extract those .img files and see files or code inside? Again I'm not really interested in the core or the kernel of an android OS but anything that could customize the way it works.

Thank you!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NeoGriim:
Okay, so I found a found at a gas station a couple weeks ago and I wanna get straight talk on it. The package I got, however, didn't have a SIM card that would work with the phone... The ATT ones were too small for the sim slot and it's an ATT locked phone, so the t mobile ones that came with it won't work...

Now, on with the part where I try to unlock the phone. I was originally going to root it but I don't have any experience and heard that it could kill the phone and I just need it unlocked right now. I've looked all around the net and here's what I found.

*#0011# - can't use menu back

*#197328640# - Takes me to the debug menu but the phone control option (in some walkthroughs it's 6, in others it's 8) simply isn't there.

Any number I've entered to get me into the system control menu won't let me go back from the menu it enters me in. I'm not paying 30$ to unlock it via ebay or one of these unlock code sites considering there's got to be a way to unlock it using the system controls. Can anyone help me? I've come close a couple of times on random forums, I see people asking the question however the conversation then gets side tract and moves on to something else.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] NeoGriim:
So, I tried calling att and getting them to give me an unlock code and they said because I don't have a number. I've officially reached a dead end on unlocking the phone. I'm thinking instead I'll root the phone so I can use it (I think that works). But I know that it can be dangerous and come with side effects, so what I'm wondering is if anyone can give me any information on unlocking or rooting.

I'm not sure if I included what I'm trying to do in my original post.

I found a Samsung Galaxy S4 a while ago, I kept it around for a bit and no one came to claim it after two weeks so I took it home and used it on my wireless net and downloaded some games and movies for my daughter. Now, ATT is trying to screw me over on my iphone so I'm cancelling that contract and trying to get straight talk on this this phone. I bought the pack, put in the SIM card that fit and the phone read, and it came up that I need to unlock it to use this one because it was a t-mobile sim card (The att ones in the pack didn't fit).

All I want to do is use this phone with straight talk. The super small SIM cards won't fit in it and the larger Tmobile sim cards are Tmobile on an ATT galaxy and won't work.

Please help.

Right now, I just don't know what to do. I've restored my phone (model SGH-1747) back to stock many times before using Odin and it's all worked fine. But somehow, my phone is just stuck on the Samsung booting screen. Odin even gives the green "Pass!" but my phone just can't load correctly. My phone is still able to enter download mode each time I restart my phone so I don't think all hope's lost but I just can't get past the damn pulsing Samsung screen (this is after the AT&T booting screen).

Here are the steps I do to restore my phone from stock:

1. Enter phone in download mode

2. Run Odin v3.09 via administrator

3. Click on PDA and load file "root66_ATT_I747UCDLK3.tar.md5"

4. Click start

I've tried Googling my problem but I just don't really know what solutions I'm looking for. Any suggestions?

3. Clear Data/Factory reset

4. Reboot

5. All Done

I root the note 3 and tried the RegionLock away from chainfire but it doesn't work.

Is there any other workaround i can try? Does installing custom ROM will work?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rukbat:
No, the ROM has nothing to do with the SIM-lock. Someone (you or they) will have to buy an unlock code if AT&T won't give it to you. (They may, if the phone will permanently be used outside the US.)

Hello Internet, I just thought I'd chime in on the sms issue many seem to be having.

For me it started in the morning on the 21st. The day before everything was peachy. That morning I woke up and sent my normal texts that I usually do. The first text sent fine like usual, but anything after would fail to send. One quick-fix I found was to toggle airplane mode before sending a message, which would allow me to send another text or two before failing. The most interesting thing about this issue is that my brother, who is on cm 10.2 started having the issue at the exact same time and we aren't even running the same versions of android.

So I called verizon today and after about a half our I was able to get some information. I told the guy that I had tried rebooting, clearing cache, factory reseting, updating my SMSC number, etc. He said it's probably an issue in their end, which makes sense due to the timing of the issue occurring. He said he would do some behind the scenes stuff and call me back on Monday. I guess we'll see if the issue gets resolved. Keep me posted if you find a solution.

You are from Hershey Pa. I am in the Wilkes/Barre Scranton area. Anyone else experiencing this problem and in this area?

Do you have voice+ or google voice in your app drawer? I've seen some people who have had it in their app drawer who have been able to open that and select disable which remedies the problem. Hopefully Verizon gets back to you.
