[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
You have a sound approach.

AFAIK Titanium Backup (Pro?) should be able to restore your pre-root adb backup.

I've picked up on the habit of backing up all the baseband settings I could, and in Qualcomm modem devices this includes NV (non-volatile) items. EFS Professional now supports both .qcn and CDMA Workshop text format NV backups so it should cover your bases nicely.

QPST and QXDM are leaked software, EFS Professional was made via reverse engineering. For our needs both serve the same purpose. One may work where the other fails. (I posted a list of skip items on the EFS Professional thread which could come in handy.)

If you want to backup *everything* on the phone, that's another process which involves forwarding adb's output to files. Check here and here.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2] yourpolicyrocks:
Hi everyone,

I unnecessarily set myself up for a lot of trouble with the S7582 (Samsung Galaxy Duos) and am now trying to get out of it (but my hopes are dimming).

I installed "Chainfire 3D" on my phone, not realizing that it was meant for Android 2, but not for Android 4. As a result, the phone will not boot anymore now. I tried to recover via ADB, but since I didn't have USB debugging enabled, I am getting an "unauthorized" error message.

Any more ideas? I read somewhere that "authorization" is only necessary with Android 4.2 and up, so I am wondering if I might be able to get my hands on a compatible Android 4.1 version, e.g. for the S7562, but then again I don't want to destroy the phone even further. I am assuming that at this point, wiping it all and returning it to factory settings would still work, but that would still be pretty bad because it would also mean wiping several important phone numbers and some other data which I will not be able to recover otherwise.

Any help/advice would be highly appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2] yourpolicyrocks:
I am currently downloading a stock version of the regular S7582 firmware, and plan to install it via Recovery (from zip file on external SD). I am hoping that this will remove the problematic drivers from /system while keeping my /data partition.

Another issue is that I rooted my phone following instructions on a certain website, and I went through the instructions to set USB debug mode and install CWM recovery. Yet, when I boot into recovery mode, I can only see stock recovery with very limited options, plus, when I try to connect via adb, I get a "device unauthorized" error with no available options to confirm on my phone.

I am wondering at this point if, before flashing a full rom, I would be better off trying to reinstall CWM recovery. Needless to say, I would only try this if it doesn't wipe my phone (unfortunately, I could not find any info on this).

Once again, any help greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2] yourpolicyrocks:
In case anyone else encounters a similar problem - I ended up reflashing CWM recovery via Odin. That didn't wipe any data.

Next I used adb to rename the Chainfire libraries according to these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2362873&page=2

Phone working again - ton of time lost, but no data.

How do you do a restore of a TWRP Backup of a ROM or the original Asus JB OS? I tried to restore the backup I did before flashing the CROMi-X ROM. When I try to do a restore in TWRP and goto the Micro SD Memory card I have the backup on it does not show any files. Do you have to use the same version of TWRP that you backed up in order to restore or can you use the same version or higher?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
TWRP can only read fat32. Are you sure your microSD is formatted correctly?

Unless the TWRP version you used to make the nandroid and your current one are miles apart, it should work. Hard to tell since you didn't post any versions.
[Asus Transformer TF700] daldude786:
I have TWRP 2.6.3 and it is able to read the memory card and see the Flash ZIP file. I used TWRP 2.6.1 to back up The Asus Stock ROM before flashing the custom ROM. When TWRP does a backup does it backup the Data and how my screens are set up or only the operating system?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
It depends what options you checked when you made the nandroid. If you left the default selection, TWRP backed up both system and data.

If TWRP can read your microSD, what's your problem? I don't understand - since you wrote earlier that TWRP doesn't see any files??

2.6.3 and 2.6.1 are compatible. You shouldn't have a problem restoring the nandroid.
[Asus Transformer TF700] daldude786:
Let me Rephrase that I meant when I do a restore funtion it does not see any files but if I do a Flah funtion or use the file manager it does see files.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Did you manually copy the nandroid to the card?

It has to be nested exactly like TWRP created the folder or TWRP will not recognize it.

Something like TWRP/Backups/your-serial-number/date of backup/

So, the device is an Iphone Replica (which is already a Problem) and I am trying to install a ROM into the device (smth like CM, KK, anything ) but with no success. The device is Rooted as expected... So I installed already a few software to be able to see what the system is like ..

(an the system itself sucks a lot haha)

I am not doing this for money, I am doing this cause I like challenges ..

[Moto X Q&A] creebefu:
Try installing PDANet - http://pdanet.co/

The amount of times I've had driver problems (not just with Moto X) in the past, this thing always works. Once the driver's installed, you should just be able to uninstall the software, and the phone drivers should still be there.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
If that doesn't work, follow this guide -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/ADB.htm to install and configure ADB, and make sure you have the most up to date versions. Consider also installing the latest Google USB driver when doing so.

Also keep in mind, unfortunately there have been many with Windows 8/8.1 that have run into issues using ADB.

Please be sure to post back exactly what fixes/helps you so it can help others that might run into this issue.
[Moto X Q&A] seabass950:
Thanks all for the suggestions.

Looks like I fixed it by going in device manager and uninstalling the drivers. I uninstalled the ADB drivers (by showing hidden devices in device manager) and also the Motorola device.

Then I rebooted, and reinstalled motorola manager.
[Moto X Q&A] pairustwo:
The more I read the more confused I get. Could someone sort me out?

<complain>I got the moto x because of the quick OTA updates. Now it seems that because I installed TWRP and froze a few apps with TB that this feature is totally borked!</complain> is that correct? I cannot update without stock recovery and all the original apps installed / unfrozen?

In my predicament would the easiest thing to do be

1. Unfreeze any system apps I've frozen.

2. Use msfastboot to reflash stock recovery?

3. Accept the OTA or somehow flash it manually (I'm not sure about this last one see below)

I accidentally accepted the OTA download and now it bugs me to install. I won't install because it just reboots into TWRP. But it does keep prompting me to set at time to install. If I simply flash stock recovery I think i will still get this prompt. Would that be the easiest way to go?

Thanks for any advice.
[Moto X Q&A] tcrews:
1. - You do not need to unfreeze apps. The apps are still there untouched in the file system, and in recovery the OS hasn't booted enough to know that the apps are "frozen". By the way, frozen apps are basically just tagged in the OS as not available....so with the OS not running (just recovery is), they aren't "frozen" in recovery.

2. - Yes, fastboot to flash stock recovery. Boot to bootloader mode, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (you don't need mfastboot for recovery, though you can still use it.)

3. - Accept the OTA. Since yours is trying to install, you should be able to boot to bootloader, flash stock recovery and on reboot it will start the install of the OTA. When done and booted.....reflash TWRP if you like.
[Moto X Q&A] pintasmapila:
That would be the way to go, yes.

Flash stock recovery and try to upgrade. If you cannot, try to unfreeze all sys apps. That should do it. ?
[Moto X Q&A] pairustwo:
OK. So maybe not such a huge PIA as I had thought. I will track down the recovery file and read the instructions for flashing.

Thanks
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
[MENTION=4326569]pairustwo[/MENTION]

Every time another OTA comes out, people who modify their phones ask the same question. I've written up a FAQ based on the past OTA's.. -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-OTA.html if you want to read it to get more info.

Part of the issues you are talking about when taking an OTA is that the OTAs want to patch and replace only SOME files on your phone, so it checks to make sure the update is for your phone and its android version by evaluating certain files on the phone, that they exist and that their check sums match what the update expects.

i.e. change/modify/delete files the OTA update checks before installing, and the OTA will refuse to install.

If it didn't do this, the wrong update could possibly flash to your phone, replacing files with incompatible versions and making a big mess.

So yeah, "getting back to stock" (or as close to it as you can) is always recommended before taking an OTA so the "check" doesn't fail and prevent the OTA from applying.

In the past, freezing apps with Ti Backup was enough of a modification to cause the OTA's to fail. So often it is still suggested to un-freeze those done with TiBackup.

The OTA zip file (as downloaded) will only flash from Stock Recovery. TWRP and CWM for example don't properly process and flash them, so if you try to install when stock recovery is NOT on your phone, you get stuck in a bootloop. Using mFastboot to flash stock recovery back on is fine for those with unlocked bootloaders. Locked Bootloader users, is another matter.

There is a way "side load" the OTA, IF you have stock recovery, your phone hasn't received the push from Moto or your Carrier yet, and the OTA Zip file has leaked. But it still requires you get back to stock, etc. just as if you were getting it OTA.
[Moto X Q&A] pairustwo:
So I've tried to flash back to stock but am having an issue. Does anyone have a link to a stock recovery image? Maybe the one I have is corrupt.

yes, WINCAB CE is a 15 use free application that lets you create and view .cab files. If you search the forums there a numerus threads that contain registry keys for your setings etc

If you download the .cab files for your network provider again from the threads on this forum you can then import them into your own custom cab file using this software.

attached is a file that i use to set name, brightness levels, pIE homepage, and a couple of other tweaks, just edit this one and/or add your own. this should work on all WM2005 devices as it uses the same program language. hope this helps....

I spent the first 3 days after having my tytn making a cab of all my programs and settings cos I hard reset quite a lot, I made a big cab file with everything i like to install on internal storage and with all the settings of the programs I keep in the storage card. I think it is worth to spend the time initially.

What i found most useful was RegDiff to generate .reg files out of two exported registry dumps, registry workshop to browse / export the registry on the PocketPC from the computer and compare current regitry settings on PocketPC with a previously dumped registry file and WinCE Cab Manager to combine the cabs of all the programs I install, set the registry settings, and put shorcuts to all applications into the right places.

It should get you to a xml file that can be tranformed into a cab.
