Using it for a long time.

Never good to restore from another roms settings.

But you can just make a backup for every rom.

Thought already knows about it.

The thing I remember most about it was users holding out on flashing the new updates. They were waiting on the backup app to be updated which sometimes took a day. Seemed like extra work for the du devs

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] CavemanXXL:
Hey fellas. I just recieved my brand new Huawei Mate 9 today. Than i noticed that it has some touch issues. So, i made some research and tried to install B156 on my phone via Firmware Finder which turned into disaster.

First of all my phone has the code "MHA-L29C432B138". Then i tried to install MHA-L29C432B156 FULL VERSION via the Firmware Finder which didn't install. Gave some sort of an authentication error. Which was 2.26GB. Then i tried an OTA version with the same serial number which was around 410MB. Then it all went sideways. It installed but gave an error at the the end. And every time i boot my phone i get "Your device has failed verification and may not work properly." error and have to press the Power Key to continue booting. And my phone is still B138 after all this.

Than i factory reseted my phone via both the Settings menu and by Power and Volume Up keys menu. All the same.

I just recieved this phone like 5-6 hours ago and i already messed it up. I feel really down and bad at the moment. :(

Here is the current situation:

And the real sad thing is, i'm still using my 3,5 years old LG G2 with CM14 and it runs solid. I was between LG V20 and Mate 9 and chose Mate 9 because of the issues with V20 and better battery life, bigger screen, dual speakers,...etc.

Please help me recover from this nightmare.

Thanks to all of you in advance for any help...

[ Backup with ADB through Recovery TWRP 3.0.2-r5 or TWRP 3.1.0-0 ]​

I found out how to backup easy through Recovery with ADB and create this software to help you get easy with that, just execute it and follow what is write in there!

​

Download the zip, extract the folder, boot in twrp and plug the usb cable, open the folder and execute the exe file, select the option and follow what is write. The backup files will be stored in Rom_Backup folder!

To restore the partitions you need to do a backup first from the same partitions then do a restore!

Hi!

I found out how to use the ADB backup with recovery!

Try the software i create from above!

:laugh: :silly:

[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Hello.

Forgive my silly question, but I want to be sure I don't create a mess.

In May I was with stock rom rooted with 8+8 GB and I've done a backup with your tool, so now on my pc I have the file Backup_14052017.bak.

Then I've flashed LineageOS 13.0 for Alcatel ONETOUCH IDOL 3 4.7 rom by alecbl.

Now I want to go back to that stock rom.

Can I do it just restoring that backup, right? And then I'll have back the stock rom 8+8, and all the data I had in may, correct?

Thanks.

Luigi.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
Stick with Lineage - personna bricked his phone .........
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
OOps, doesn't suond funny...

Bricked using the restore option???
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
So, I'm trying to restoring that backup.

I've rebooted the phone in TWRP, plugged it to pc, launched ROM_BACKUP.exe, choosen 1 - Restore Backup and written backup's name.

But I get the error "adb: unable to connect for restore" (see attachment).

I have debug usb enabled and USB Computer Connection set on Camera(PTP).

What am I missing?

Thanks.

[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Huskied:
The latest TWRP from FireLord. You need to be on the recovery for restore to work.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Which version is the latest? I have 3.1.0-0.

I've turned off the phone, then pushed power+volume up for booting on TWRP.

I'm in the initial screen, the one with 'Install', 'Wipe', 'Backup', 'Restore', 'Mount', 'Settings', 'Advanced', 'Reboot' when trying to restore.

Mabe is something wrong on my pc with adb.

In my ROM_BACKUP folder I have (don't remember if they were originally there or if I've moved something in that folder)

adb.exe

AdbWinApi.dll

AdbWinApi_build.dll

AdbWinUsbApi.dll

Backup_14052017.bak

ROM_BACKUP.exe

I've tried opening command line from that folder and writing 'adb devices' for seeing if everything was ok.

I've got the message 'List of devices attached' but nothing about the device.

So it seems there's something missing...

Thanks as usual!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Huskied:
Check in Android Development. Again, FireLord's TWRP is the latest.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Thanks.

Found it, but in the download page it says

twrp-3.1.1-idol3.img

for the Alcatel Idol 3 5.5, by FireLord

Will it work also on Alcatel Idol 3 4.7?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Huskied:
Ehhhh... I don't know. I would suggest hitting someone up to build the latest TWRP for the 4.7 Idol 3.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
solquest - I would suggest you use personna's TWRP he made - that is the one he used to check this works on his phone

check his posts ;)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Do you mean TWRP 3.0.2-r5 and TWRP 3.1.0-0?

Tried them both but always got this message:

command id: 'adbrestore' and there is no value

E:Unable to find file system (first period).

E:Unable to find file system (first period).

E:Unknown restore method for '/system'

E:ADB Restore failed.

Checking online, mine doesn't seem the only case: https://github.com/omnirom/android_bootable_recovery/issues/133
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
Well the latest TWRP is by alecbl on the lineage thread towards the end - 3.1.1.0 - try that one and see if that works....
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Found and tried.

Restoring finally worked and it said it restored system and also data (while I thought with ROM_BACKUP I would have restored only system).

The problem now is that phone doesn't boot... I get the ALCATEL ONETOUCHE powered by ANDROID screen, then the Idol 3 screen, then the blue android forming and then it reboot.

Any idea on what to do?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Huskied:
Wipe Data. Sometimes it kills phones.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
I've wiped Data, Cache and Dalvik, but nothing changes.

Sometimes I just get the first screen (ALCATEL onetouch - powered by Android) and then it reboots, sometimes it goes a bit further with the other two screens (Idol 3 and the droid getting blue) but then it reboots again.

Should I try with Repair or Change File System?

On TWRP I've tried to restore data (but don't know if that would have helped) but when I select the Package to restore (2017-05-14-07-37-44_LRX22G_release_keys) I get the error 'No partition selected for restore'.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Booted phone in recovery, wiped dalvik, system, data, internal storage and cache.

Then tried restore via adb and got the message:

command is: 'adbrestore' and there is no value

E:Error opening TW_ABD_BU_CONTROL

Done processing script file

Then wiped again data and cache and flashed again LineageOS 13.0 for Alcatel ONETOUCH IDOL 3 4.7 rom by alecbl (with august security patch).

But still the phone keeps rebooting after the first screen.

So I've wiped data, cache and dalvik again and tried with 'adb restore Backup_14052017.bak' and got these messages:

Here's the messages I got while restoring:

Done again 'wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik' before rebooting, but then it keeps rebooting (or after the first screen or when the droid is getting blue)...

[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Thanks.

What do you mean with 'in download mode'?

I've installed Mobile Upgrade Q 4.1.0 but if I select model 6039 the image looks different from the phone and it speaks of removable battery, so I don't think it's the right one...
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
I'm sure it tells you how to enter download mode when you use the program. There is a thread on here somewhere that goes into great detail about this.

It is a completely different mode to anything.

My phone is uk o2 and mobile Q does not work on that so I havent used it in over a year......
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] solquest3:
Haven't found nothing about that 'downoad mode', so I've wiped everything on phone excepted SD, updated phone using mobile Q, got the message that everytihng went well but phone keeps restarting.

Rebooted in recovery and now don't have TWRP anymore, but Android Recovery and version 6.0.1

Done factory reset again, but keeps rebooting.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] k500zm:
It's a shame you didn't take my advice to stick with Lineage - Personna bricked his phone although his was way more gone than yours. [weird codes when he started his phone]

I dont think your phone is unreviveable - but I am completely out of ideas - maybe someone else could come in with some suggestions here ?

Your best bet is to PM Personna and ask him if he could help you as it is his work and he is the one that understands whats going on here.

Good Luck.

I am hoping some of you may be able to help me out. i am having some really odd issues after updating my Verizon S7 to Nougat. here they are.....

1) gBoard - when I activate the google keyboard, it is unusable. i see the keyboard...but the phone does not register my touch inputs. the rest of the screen recognizes my inputs...but the keyboard is dead. so i have to use the samsung keyboard. it works fine. but i prefer the gboard.

2) google sheets - i am unable to edit cells. i can scorll around in a spreadsheet, but when i tap to edit a cell...nothing happens.

3) autonotification - it seems that some of the takser profiles i have set to use autonotificaitons have stopped working.

thanks in advance!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] CVertigo1:
Do you have G-Board turned on as your default? I use it without issue on my phone with Nougat, so it's not a Nougat or S7 issue.

As for the others, I rarely use Sheets and don't use Tasker, so I can't comment on those issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] stanfna:
i also noticed i can not input text into Google Keep. so it looks like i have no ability to input into any google apps (except gmail).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] stanfna:
SOLVED

I finally figured out what the issue was. Hopefully this may help somone in the future.

The issue related to the Explore By Touch feature in Talkback. I had two services turned on in the Accessibility section of the phone's settings menu. When enabled, these two services activated the Explore By Touch feature in Talkback which prevented input into gBoard and google sheets. To solve the issue, I disabled Talkback using Package Disabler Pro. the two services causing the issue were AutoInput and Optical Reader. I have enabled AutoInput but not Optical Reader. This combined with disabling Talkback has resolved my issue. i am now able to use gBoard and google sheets.

I hope this info helps you as well.

thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MikeZinSAT:
I recently updated my old Sprint GS3 to Lineage OS 14.1 with GApps. Only problem is, that in the process, I lost the ability to block texts based on their content (NOT what number they came from). The stock Sprint Messsage app on KitKat had this. But neither the most recent GApps or Google version has this. I've tried a bunch of other options available from the Google Play Store, and so far they either, don't have the feature, it doesn't work the way I need it, OR they drive me nuts with ads or wacky features I don't need or want. I've also tried copying over .APKs from some other Samsung phones on Sprint. But I couldn't get any of them to successfully install or work on my phone. Any constructive suggestions would be much appreciated. THANKS - mz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] madbat99:
The problem with copying the APK from a Sprint phone is that the stock system is odex and lineage is deodex. You could try flashing a stock ROM that's deodexed and backing up the APK with titanium, then restoring it on lineage. May or may not work because some of those stock app just want the TouchWiz system no matter what. You could try copying the APK from a stock deodexed ROM (like wicked x) and then installing it on lineage as a user app. But like I said some of those Samsung apps need TouchWiz to function. Just thought I'd throw out some things to try.
