[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nekrok:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace II (GT-I8160) running on CyanogenMod 10.2 by TeamCanjica with CWM-based Recovery 6.0.2.8 by Shaaan and rooted like this when I came from Android 4.1.2.

Via NovaThor Settings the quite small internal storage is switched with a 16 GB sdcard.

Now I am a bit worried, that a nandroid backup via above mentioned CWM-based Recovery -> backup and restore -> backup to /storage/sdcard1 might not fully work:

Can the backup deal with using the sdcard as storage for the backup while the sdcard itself is used as internal storage?

Is sdcard1 the correct storage anyway or is it sdcard0? How to find out?

In the end I want to give CM 11 another try, but still like CM 10.2 and want to be able to get back there the way I set it up.

does somebody here know how to tweak the registry to make the T9 input of Asus P525 default to 'Abc' instead of 'T9 English' ?

and also, how to make the T9 as default SIP after a soft reset instead of the keyboard?

[General Topics] Mort:
In the download area of Asus there's a small tool that sounds like it does something like that. Sadly direct links aren't possible. You can find it by pressing "Download" in the upper menu of www.asus.com, selecting PDA/PDA/P525 + press Search, then click on "Utilities". Now there's a "T9 Disable and Enable Utility".

I haven't checked it myself yet...

btw: Do NOT install the firmware update that's on the same page, unless you've got or want a french device...
[General Topics] Mort:
Don't now the registry entry right now, but you can always activate the T9 input by pressing the * key for some seconds.
[General Topics] boybi:
i know the T9 Disable tool you're talking about and I know how to activate it. but right after activating the T9, you still have 4 options:

T9 English - predictive text input for English language

123 - for entering numbers

Symbols - for entering symbols

Abc - for entering words other than English.

whenever i'm going to type something, like SMS or notes, the T9 always defaults to T9 English. what i want is for it to default to Abc.

i hope somebody here can help me find the registry entry for this.

thanks in advance.

We know that most people are not fan of Samsung's Touchwiz UI, because of its laggy and has a lot of bloat, But many of us do like the look and its style . So this is a really simple guide is for those who are on CM based custom rom and want to experience Latest Touchwiz look without giving up on performance front.

Prerequisites:

Phone- Your device must be running any CM based custom rom

Apps-

1- Nova Launcher (Latest Version) Here

2- CM Touchwiz Theme Here

3- Xwidget Here

Download above apps and follow the below Guide:

1: install all the apps

2: set the cm touchwiz theme

3: download galaxy 5 widget in Xwidget app

4: Set nova launcher as your default launcher

5: configure nova launcher like this:

Desktop> Scroll indicator> choose the dotted one

Dock> check Label Icons

Dock> Dock Height> Set it large (keep it default if you like that way)

Look and Feel> Icon theme> Sytem

Look and Feel> Icon Font> Condensed

Keep the rest default, change it only if you want

6: Get back to Homescreen , set xwidget galaxy s5 widget

Done!!!

Now you have Galaxy S5 or Touchwiz look without giving up your custom ROM features and performance

Sony ericsson xperia x8 11W43 e15i firmware version: 2.1 update 1 kernel version: 2.6.29 build number: 2.1.1.C.0.0.

I want to install cm 7 or better 10 on my phone. I know cm 10 requires that the bootloader is unlocked, which it is not.

It has turned out to be a very difficult task and I have not succeeded.

Another user on this forum has made a big effort to get cm on my phone. That is why I know how to root the phone and set usb debugging and allow other software sources.

I have got this software at hand

s1tool, gingerdx v0.31, X8_E15_2.1.1.C.0.0_generic.ftf, cwm.

Furthermore I have been using recoverx from google play.

Nothing worked. Gingerdx never starts, I have tried to let the phone boot for 20 minutes several times.

I also tried the paid wotanserver dot com option in order to get the phone's bootloader unlocked. That also failed, because when I ran the wontanserver software on a windows 7 hp computer, I could not login to wotanserver and execute the bootloader unlocking. Wotanserver could not provide further instructions, and I got a refund.

I am informed about the 11w36 issue, that is why I have not tried to unlock the bootloader using s1tool. If there if new information about how to unlock the bootloader I would very much like to get it?

If you know a working 10usd paid option to unlock the bootloader, please tell me?

I have also in parts read posts about testpoints to unlock the bootloader, but no post has come to a conclusion whether it can be done?

Failing can be related to me not installing correctly or there is some error about the phone.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
You need cwm. Try again and make sure you full wipe(factory reset, wipe Dalvik cache) before flashing.

There isn't anything. Just try the roms that are working with stock kernel.

No difference. Maybe what you saw wasn't for the x8, but for x10/x10 mini.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hubert123454:
unlock bootloader is better option and instal cm 7 with nAa14 kernel for better performance.

Cyanogenmod 10 have worst performance than Cyanogenmod 7.2.

If you want play games on X8.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
You are right but that not the case as he can't unlock his bootloader.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thmmht:
Thank you for answering.

This is what I have done about ten times.

Set and marked usb debugging and other software sources.

Rooted the phone using s1tool.

Installed cwm using recoverx from google play, or a cwm file.

Flashing gingerdx from sd card using cwm.

Reboot.

Everytime the phone gets stuck in boot mode. Then I have to flash X8_E15_2.1.1.C.0.0_generic.ftf_FILES in order to get a working phone.

You ask me to do a factory reset after I have flashed the phone into working order again?

The part about wipe Dalvik cache I do not get. Is that something I do on android 2.1?

When I boot into cwm, which can take several tries, there is a wipe option, do you ask me to select that option before flashing ginger dx?

I get if recoverx worked like it should do, flashing the phone would be a small task.

On this forum in some posts there has been some efforts to testpoints unlock the xperia x8's bootloader. To my knowledge, they did not come to a conclusion.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
No, you will do it from cwm. I believe it is under "Advanced".

Yes. If I remember correctly somewhere it says "Factory reset".

To the above add before flashing gingerdx:

Full wipe.

I flashed the no wipe for my Vzw S4 and it started having wifi issues after it rebooted. I used the full wipe using the files form Surge's thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2735172 and it worked fine initially.

he phone updated all the crapware, and installed all my apps from play store. I used towel root and installed busy box and supersu. after about the third reboot, wifi stopped working, and refuses to turn on. the same thing happened on the no wipe version... Is there a fix for this or a link to a flash I can try?

Anybody have some insight on this and is anybody else having this problem? I need my wifi to work so I can run half of the apps i have...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jimmy Rudedog:
thanx I'll try it. think I got it now, and know what happened or went wrong. I tried flashing it to NC2 and setting it up again... it was the busybox smart install breaking the symlink to wifi... flashed again the NC5 and used the normal install and rebooted several times now, it still running wifi... so far. but now I have the patch also if something goes awry. thanks guys
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jimmy Rudedog:
I just unzipped the wifi fix to look at it, and it has sasfestrap in it... is this going to install safestrap on my phone also? don't want safestrap at all on my phone... would prefer to get slim rom in a tar version and just straight flash it that way. is there a tar file for roms other than the ones on Surge;s thread? my eyes are getting tired reading 100's of pages trying to find stuff...any links to tar rom files that will run on Vzw S4's?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
I am looking to unroot my HTC one M8. I followed tutorial from sakitech on YouTube to root the phone.

I am not sure if I am s on or s off, I am pretty sure part of the above process made be back up to mysd card using twrp or something like this. I have seen an option to fully unroot in SuperSu. I am in the UK and use Tmobile/EE network.

Is that all I would need to do? Or could someone provide step by step process using a Mac.

Thanking you in advance.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skdi:
Hmm, I'm not sure what a mac is but maybe you could set it up to dualboot ubuntu and go from there?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
A MacBook rather than on windows.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
First possibility is to perform the fully unroot in the SuperSu app and after this uninstall SuperSu.

Another Way is to download the unsupersu.zip and "install" it using a custom recovery. The script will then delete su.bin and all other su data.

To flash custom recovery you can simply install adb and fastboot on your Mac. I'm running it on a Mac myself and it works flawlessly, as OS X is programmed on a Linux base.

And yes you can dual boot a Mac with OS X and Windows or Linux. I had my MacBook even set up to tripple boot OS X, Windows 7 and Linux Mint :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
So if the fully unroot option within supersu works... Will it still require the custom recovery as well?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
No if it works you can just go Info Play Store and uninstall the SuperSu app as well to be unrooted..
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
What about exposed installer being installed? I haven't installed any custom Rom at any time as all I wanted to get was pop-up notifications. But I didn't realise so many apps would detect the rooting so would not work. That's why I want to return it to normal. Will the above lock that boot loader thing as well?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
What about APPs like RootCloak. Would try to use this first to cloak the root access to those APPs which won't work if the phone ist rooted. There is an XDA Support thread for this App as well.

As if you uninstall root you can right away uninstall xposed, as it won't work without root.

There is a free Heads-Up APP on Play Store. Just if you would like L like notifications on your One. without root. You can define which APPs are allowed to display those notifications and which are not as well.

Looks like this:

On rebooting the phone...it goes to Team Win Recovery Project v2.7.1.0 with the options to install, Wipe Backup Restore Mount Settings Advanced and Reboot. I am Stuck now not sure what to do. can anyone help me to get the phone back to how it was before rooting.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
You have to flash the stock recovery first, as OTA doesn't work wit a custom revocery such as TWRP.

Please run the

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Yes it is. So you have to download and flash stock recovery. 1.54.401.10. You can download it from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

After you downloaded it copy the recovery.img to adb folder and

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Reboot phone, download OTA and you good to go and install it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
Do I download it on the phone? Or on my mac?

And what do I do with it from there please?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Just edited my post above, with it ;)

On a Mac you maybe have to type it the following way (but first try as I wrote above):

./adb reboot bootloader

./fastboot reboot-bootloader

./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Edit: Oh man I forgot to ask. Do you have adb and fastboot installed on you Mac?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
file downloaded....copy the recovery.img to adb folder (this part the dab folder where is this?) within platform-tools on my desktop?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
If in this folder is a file named adb then yes. Got to find out, cause I don't know if and where you installed fastboot and adb
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
No not that I know off. When I rooted it initially I used terminal.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Ok so here we are stuck. I can't tell you if you have adb and fastboot installed properly. This you got to check now and if not you have to download and install them.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
How do I check if there installed properly? Is this on the mac or the phone?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
They have to be installed properly on your Mac. Check the Android on Mac thread and have a look if you got them installed that way. Otherwise follow these instructions to install them.

The best would be you take the zip attached at the end of the first post and unpack it to /Users/YourUser/
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Browner1975:
Ok I have followed the tutorial attached and I have them files already in my platform-tools on my desktop. So went back to your previous post ./adb reboot bootloader

./fastboot reboot-bootloader

./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

On the last part though the terminal is saying error: cannot load 'recovery.img' when I type the following command ./fastboot flash stock recovery 1.54.401.10 recovery.img
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Ok then

1) paste the recovery.img into this folder

2) on your HTC One M8 go to "settings"

a) ensure that "Power > fastboot mode" is deactivated

b) ensure that "Developer Options > USB debugging" is enabled

3) connect you M8 to the Mac

4) open terminal on Mac and "cd /Users/YourUsername/Desktop/adbfoldername"

5) "./adb reboot bootloader"

6) "./fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img"

7) "./fastboot reboot"

Now stock recovery is flashed and OTA can be installed.

up to point 5 is fine. point six not working....so phone is on fast boot usb screen. i type in the following ./fastboot flash recovery stock recovery 1.54.401.10 recovery.img which is the name of the file as it was downloaded from earlier. just says error cannot load recovery
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
you've got to rename the recovery.img file so it doesn't contain any blanks. Best just rename it to "recovery.img" and then perform the "./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" command again.

The developer option will stay enabled und you can leave usb debugging on. Both won't do you any harm.

To check if it is properly unrooted, reboot the phone install rootchecker and run it. It should give you the information that the phone is not rooted.
