I would assume yes as it upgrades everything on the phone unless it detects that its already a higher version. I would advise switching if i were you guys i installed it last nite and its great.

Only 1 tip for people with a G4 device you need to download the package right at the front of this thread to get the radio ROM and then you need to download the G4 update utility and copy the file (i think its called nk.nbf or similar) into the directory of the G4 updater, if people like i'll upload the one i did

what it work good in O2miniS?

what is free in rom?

thank for suport!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] tubbyman:
First let me congratulate you on your use of the english language! Second in answer to your question yes it will work with the 02 Mini S because that is an HTC Wizard and this works in Wizards as well as others, yes it is also a free ROM all you will get however is the radio stack to upgrade that there is no other software included.

Hey, I ran the exe on my desktop and it cautions me that I will lose my data. I thought i would be able to apply the radio without losing my data? Which is it?

I really want to try it out but can't afford to lose my data right now (kind of in a rush so cant exactly back up either). anyone know for sure?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
it SHOULD not erase your data, you are only flashing your radio, not the OS or Ext rom... and it should be a safe bet, no one has reported data loss, but with that being said... all phones and enviroments are different, what works for everyone else doesnt necessarily mean it will work the same for you.... i would give it a 99.9% chance that you will data will remain...

just added 2.47.11 radio rom on top of 2.26 official rom...excellent!

Very nice!

Took all of a couple of mins to load up, then a reboot, and definitely more bars in my home than I've seen to date.

Tried a quick call to voicemail, and it certainly seems clearer and less noisy than I normally get from home.

Will be very curious to see what it's like in my office in midtown NYC tomorrow. I generally get a fair to poor signal. Would be a nice improvement if this really makes a difference there....will report back.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Dylan:
If your upgrade fails (RGB screen, but OK again afer removing battery and restart), you should proceed like this:

1) disconnect from PC

2) turn off wizard (press powerbutton until confirm dialog, confirm)

3) power on wizard while keeping camera button pressed

4) you are now again in the rgb screen!

5) connect to PC with USB cable

6) go to device manager, you'll find a Win CE USB device that is not properly installed. this is your problem :-)

7) right click, update drivers, confirm if necessary

8) update your radio rom!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thirtythreeforty:
Hello all,

Last night I ran the following command (with the phone in recovery and everything unmounted) to back up my Nexus 5's userdata partition to my computer:

adb pull /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata

My phone is encrypted, so I use "cryptsetup --type=plain open" to obtain a plaintext version on /dev/mapper/my-nexus-backup. But I cannot mount the mapped device using "mount"! It complains that iit can't find the filesystem.

So, how would I mount such an image? Or, even better, what's the best way to dd it back to the userdata partition on the device?

And yes, next time I will just use a Nandroid, even if it means having to erase things to make room.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Sorry, where are you mounting exactly? Are you trying to mount an image on a Linux box after the pull?

If not can you please share the full step of commands and what you expect to happen please?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thirtythreeforty:
Hey rootSU. I pulled the image from my phone, decrypted it, and tried to mount it:

$ adb pull /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata
$ su
# losetup /dev/loop1 userdata
# cryptsetup open --type plain /dev/loop1 nexus
Enter passphrase:
# mount /dev/mapper/nexus /mnt/tmp
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/nexus,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error

In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so.

I'm not sure why that doesn't work. It's just ext4, right? I'd still find it instructive to figure out how to mount it; hopefully you can shed some light?

As far as getting the image back on the device's partition, I was a bit stuck, because there's obviously no room on the device to copy it to. I finally figured out a method involving netcat. Essentially I forwarded a local TCP port to my device (in recovery) using adb, then used netcat to feed dd the image.

$ adb forward tcp:4444 tcp:4444
$ adb shell
# nc -l -p 4444 -e dd of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata

This will hang as it waits for an inbound connection. From a second shell:

$ dd if=userdata | nc localhost 4444

My 28GiB image took around 6 hours (!) to complete. Nandroid is probably the way to go.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Nandroid won't backup sdcard but you can use foldersync to back that up.

Yes it is just ext4

I've never done anything like this before with an encrypted device but my assumption was if you adb pull a file, it would decrypt it on the fly.. Does it not?? If it does, I'd just dd it to an img.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thirtythreeforty:
Nope, in this case, userdata is the encrypted *device*; in any case TWRP knows nothing about the encryption. The pull was identical to using dd to copy the file. Of course, if you wanted to decrypt your device without wiping data, you could probably have TWRP decrypt the data partition, then dd or pull the resulting /dev/block/dm-0 file (which is equivalent to my /dev/mapper/nexus file I created). Haven't tried it though; ain't nobody got time for that.

I wonder why it wouldn't mount. Oh well. I'm just happy that my device is the way it was yesterday.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I'd love to have a play with this but I just don't have the time to start encrypting and decrypting stuff

Out of interest what about adb whilst in android?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thirtythreeforty:
You would have the exact same results, as the /dev/* files are the physical disks represented as a file. The crypto drivers read/write this block device file to present a decrypted /dev/block/dm-0 device. Then the kernel mounts dm-0 as an ext4 filesystem on /data. All the files I mentioned are pullable with adb, assuming you have sufficient privileges. You don't need fancy tools to read/write them, which is why the netcat hack worked. Thus is the power of Unix!

You can screw around with it if you want in regular desktop Linux with a "device" you make from a bunch of 0s. Do:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=disk.image count=100000
# losetup /dev/loop0 disk.image

Now you can do "mkfs.ext4 /dev/loop0" and "mount ..." or whatever, and the data will be written to the "device" disk.image.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
If the ota fails every time, that means that your /system partition is too heavily modified for the ota to complete ( most likely the result of xposed). You need to disable xposed, flash the ota (4.4.4 zip) and then flash the SuperSU zip again for root, and then re-enable xposed.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
Because it still fails, the best thing I can suggest is to download the 4.4.3 factory image, extract the system.img and the flash that through fastboot. This will return your /system to stock and you can flash the ota without issue, although you will need to restore any /system mods.

Hi

I've rooted my Grand 2 with "towelroot v1", and it was ok, and it gave me a root permission.

but there was no superuser app so i installed one from the market, but it needs to install some files in recovery mode, and when it goes to recovery mode it fail.

is that ok? or not?

or do i need to be worry about any thing on my device?

and i was wondering if i do a hard reset, does the factory reset remove the root. in case of any update that will come in the future?

and if not, how can i remove the root for the upcoming updated?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aeyan Ashraf:
First of all , You don't had to download su app from the market coz there is no custom recovery for grand 2 . Su can only install it files from a custom recovery .

2nd- It's ok . Just delete su app . Nothing will happen with your device .

3rd- Factory Reset will most probably remove root . And if it doesn't remove root , just download the updated firmware of your country from sammobile and just flash it through odin .

If u have any problem , just don't hesitate in asking .

Don't forget to press the thanks button !!!!

And it's only my bootanimation who doesn't work, the other work fine and I don't know why :/
