Robo Defence Backup and Restore GScript

Hey All...

This is my first attempt at writing a ".sh" script. I have been testing it out on my phone, and it seems to be working OK.

But this makes backing up and restoring your Robo Defense files a whole lot easier.

The only "prerequisite" right now is to make a directory prior to running called "retdefback".

I guess you can add a line to create the directory, I just have not done it yet.

If any of you script guru's can look it over and make any recommendations... please do! :)

Robo Defence Backup....

echo "Backing up Robot Defence files..."
echo ""
cp -R /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs/AndroidDefense.xml /sdcard/retdefback
cp -R /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs/AndroidDefenseBackup.xml /sdcard/retdefback
echo "Finished backup"

Robo Defence Backup....

(I used the "mv" command to rename the existing files, so you have a backup if things get screwed up!)

echo "Restoring Robot Defence files..."
echo ""
echo "Renaming Default Files..."
echo ""
sleep 3
mv /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs/AndroidDefense.xml /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs/AndroidDefense2.xml
mv /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs/AndroidDefenseBackup.xml /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs/AndroidDefenseBackup2.xml

echo "Restoring Robot Defence files..."
echo ""
sleep 3

cp /sdcard/retdefback/AndroidDefense.xml /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs
cp /sdcard/retdefback/AndroidDefenseBackup.xml /data/data/com.magicwach.rdefense/shared_prefs

echo "Finished Restore"

anyway you can do this thru terminal?

I've tried putting the xml files back in their rightful place, but it's not showing my points or achievements as they used to be. Any ideas?
[G1 Apps and Games] Woodard2589:
try opening up the saved files on the computer and see whats in it. you should see a high score and achievements in there. make sure they say the correct score. check both of them, the one called backup is the actual save while the other is the quick save it uses when you close it, theres only one line difference between the two and maybe one of them was pulled wrong, if thats the case i can give you the code to fix them. also if they are both wrong for who knows why i think i can figure out how to get you set backup score and achievement wise about how you were before. you might have to rebuy your upgrades since i only have the ones in my code for what i have, but if you set your rewards value higher you can get them again.
[G1 Apps and Games] tekkitan:
if the permissions weren't preserved, it could be unable to read it. look at other app xmls and compare the permissions. also check the directory permissions.
[G1 Apps and Games] Woodard2589:
you didnt happen to restore the files then download the app did you? the directories wont be created until its been downloaded, and if it did transfer still the files may of been wiped when you downloaded it. so try what i said above to make sure theres data in the files and then resend them.
[G1 Apps and Games] crxtasi:
been awhile since I checked back in this thread but finally the Dev added saved games to the SD card and can now resume flashing different roms without losing all the achievements in this game....

Still worth every single penny:D
[G1 Apps and Games] anheuer:
I love the game..

but when i bought it i did not expect the other levels to have the army coming from multiple points..

This is difficult!!!!

I find the normal level hard enough :P

Any tips? :P

Curse you guys! I am now addicted to this game as well! After reading this thread, I d/l'ed the free version, tried it out, and next day bought the full one off the market. Best defense game I've seen.

Anyone try Crystallight defense? http://www.androidappreviewsource.com/2009/07/13/crystallight-android-app-review/
[G1 Apps and Games] Woodard2589:
is the backup restore working for anyone else? i havent played the game in a while after its been updated the last few times and went to restore my data from wiping several times using the method from my post before and its not working anymore. idk if the developer changed how he saves it or what. I can't even get the shared_prefs file to open up from command prompt anymore.
[G1 Apps and Games] djet229:
Best game ever!!!

question, if i wipe...will my stats erase? cause i want to flash a new ROM, but i made so much progress~!!!
[G1 Apps and Games] tekkitan:
Ever since a few versions ago, it saves your progress, achievements, etc on the SD card.
[G1 Apps and Games] doughanson78:
if i copy the robo defense .bak file to my computer then flash my g1 and copy the file back, will all my achievements be restored?
[G1 Apps and Games] crxtasi:
Yeah you should be good to go man Ive been flashing back and forth and putting the .bak file on the root of my sd card and its all there :D

ps I still love this game!
[G1 Apps and Games] mikecyber:
Anyone want to share their .bak? I like the game well enough, but cheating is fun too.

Edit - Idea: If I can get a pretty good sampling, I, or anyone, could create an app to make custom .bak files.
[G1 Apps and Games] Riel:
So addictive.

Unlocked both towers and got level 20+ ... just managed to finish a map with only 12 towers :D

But, I would like some new towers ... some more mayhem :) And more tactical airplanes, I would like to be able to 'steer' them too like avoiding clouds or non-radar paths.They go into a straight line and always mess up my playfield because I have to put a bunch of anti aircraft defence in the middle :)
[G1 Apps and Games] mikecyber:
Progress!
[G1 Apps and Games] Joe333x:

Please tell me thats a photochop lol, i mean i love the game too but wow
[G1 Apps and Games] mikecyber:
It is quite real. I have more to say about it, but I'm fist deep in the game ATM.

Bak File Decoded`

I figured out the ins and outs of the bak files. I have included a bak file that I created. It has all 57 Achievements unlocked. The Maximum Difficulty Level is 120. All of the weapons are upgraded to level 100 and Starting Cash is level 2000, for $10,000.

Remember to backup your existing bak file before placing the download on the root of your sd card.

If you want to switch back after playing with my bak, you will need to uninstall and reinstall the game and then restore your bak file.

I can also modify your bak file for you, I can enable any achievement and upgrade any weapon up to a level of over 4 billion (theoretical limit). PM me for details.

Lastly, if there is anyone who is interested in writing a small app that could create custom bak files within Android, I'd gladly give you what I have.

And please remember, I take no responsibility if anything goes wrong.

Edit: Hey, I'm an eager beaver. I see that the file I posted has been downloaded 4 times. I'd love some feedback. If you've tried it out, let me know what you think, please?
[G1 Apps and Games] Merlin2000:
How do you edit the AndroidDefense.xml file?

I can only edit the file when it is on the sdcard. I think I need to remount the file system to allow for reading AND writing.

Do you know the command to run to do this? Or is there another way to do it?
[G1 Apps and Games] legend221:
Such a great game.

I agree with you 100%
[G1 Apps and Games] MB12:
LOL addicted here using my Topaz. I tried android port on topaz and discovered it! I'm now booting to android each time to play some even if the android port is not working fine ( No sound ....).

Too good this game.

Hope we get it ported to windows mobile or I will have to buy soon and android phone :D.

Regards

[G1 Apps and Games] mikecyber:
Free version of my bak file coming soon, maybe even something better.
[G1 Apps and Games] Stiflerlv:
mikecyber or anyone else, can u edit a .bak file for me?

I took the one mike posted, and it worked, but whenever I try to edit file myself, I fail and nothing changes!

I want someone to give me clean .bak, but add level 10 "starting money" and some 10mil credits to spend on my own!

TNX!

(sorry for my english)

Hi,

i builded in a linux machine a wifi hotspot.

I used the madwifi modules in ap mode.

I configured an easy wep key for security.

A dhcp server provide ip addresses.

Now, different kind of devices work like a charme, such as a nokia E90, an Iphone, another Nokia E66 and some portable pc.

Only my android Dream doesn't works (firmware jf1.5). it seems connect but when you try some internet request (like market or whatelse) it says that 'an error has occured.

So I tried to perform a tcpdump on ath1 (my hotspot) and i see this error:

arp reply debian.local is-at xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (oui Unknown) (I hide mac address)

What does it means ?

Could I solve in some way the problem ?

Thank for any help !!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jonboy123:
Does anyone know of an alternative to TouchFlo 3D. I spoke to an HTC technician who told me that he uses a better program for his Diamond that has better response times etc, but he wouldn't say what it was. I was complaining about the response times on the phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] echolock:
He probably meant PointUI, SPB Mobile Shell, Winterface or any number of alternatives. Been trying SPB Mobile Shell 3 which is pretty good (there's a free trial) but my fav so far is PointUI (free "light" version) - http://www.pointui.com

There are also a couple of iPhone clone interfaces in the Development and Hacking section.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jonboy123:
Thanks a lot for that echolock. I am just downloading the free Pointui to the phone. Do I have to disable TouchPro 3d before loading it or will it do that automatically. I am fairly new to the phone so please excuse my ignorance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ghenarys:
Yes, you have to disable TF3D before using PointUI.

After all, if you decide to keep PointUI instead of TF3D, you have to flash your phone with a naked Rom so you gain space and memory.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jonboy123:
Do you know how to disable TF3D. My phone is an Orange branded one if that makes a difference. They use thier own ROM. I can't find a way to disable it anywhere. I have downloaded Pointui directly to the phone but I can't start the program. It isn't in programs. I have found it in my documents. Can you help.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] supersanj:
Go to start-settings-today, under items, untick touchflo.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jonboy123:
Thanks for that. TF3D is now disabled. Any idea how i load Pointui onto my phone now?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] _Allan_:
Download the program (which is a .CAB file) to your computer, then copy to the phone (storage card is best area)

Then, using FileExplorer, naviagte on the phone, to the location you saved it, and click on the program, it'll ask a few things, just click the left soft button.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jonboy123:
Thanks for that. Installed it and works fine. It does seem beeter than the TF3D.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] gerryjoson:
I use scott seligman's launcher on the standard windows today screen,it just add's program icon's to today screen,one tap open's any application,no sliding this thing here,flipping this there,scrolling up or down.

It's not finger friendly though,unless you have pointy little finger's,or usually use a stylus anyway,but it doesn't get much faster or less resource hungry than this simple app.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] elrasho:
Ive had my Touch pro for a week now with an O2 branded screen protector on it. Ive noticed there are these smudges (probably grease from my fingers) that if I try to wipe away it leaves streaks and looks horrible. They are alot less visible when the back light is on but still I want to get rid of them.

Ive tried a lint free cloth, that didnt work.

I often wonder what kind of people voluntarily watch FOX news.

I love how they never really actually rationally explain that this is done with a .jar install and that the target phone would have to be streaming audio upstream. I really doubt anyone on xda would be fooled or victimized by such a technologically trivial "hack", but then again I guess it made a good dramatic "story" for FOX watchers.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agento:
Hi all,

I have the Topaz(Diamond 2) and is the first phone with the TouchFlo 3D interface (my last phone was an XDA Orbit 2)

One of the things that infuriates me, is when using the swipe gesture to scroll through SMS/email messages.

On the SMS screen, to read the second most recent message, swiping your finger up the screen selects the next oldest message. However, on the email page, to read the second most recent email you have to swipe your finger DOWN the screen. On top of that, if you are reading the most recent email message (on the 'preview/envelope screen) and accidentally swipe up, it opens the email.

This is bugging the hell out of me. I want consistency dammit!!!!

Is there a reg hack or some other way of making them both up/down?!??!?!

[G1 General] Yahrghrr:
I'm having some confusion over the process of backing up using Nandroid on the custom cupcake builds. Long story short, I was given a T-Mo G1 UK unit modded with RC8. Attempts to wipe the device through the android system recovery utility sent it into an endless loop on the Android loading screen. I did notice that there was a "Can't open /cache/recovery/command" error in the recovery utility but posts suggested doing a full root process to restore the device to working order. Surely enough, it worked and I got the JF ADP1.5 Cupcake build on the G1.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, the JF ADP1.5 comes with the Nandroid utility built in and by booting home+power, it should show up as an alt-B option together with alt-X to enter the command line. I'm not getting either and at the top it shows the same "Can't open /cache/recovery/command" with only alt-L, alt-S and alt-W options.

Pardon me if someone already solved this on the forums but I can't seem to find any solution despite searching for hours on the net and on XDA. Did the previous owner botched an A2SD cache move thus causing the error warning in the recovery utility which screwed up the Nandroid alt-B option? Or am I supposed to perform a step to get Nandroid working? I do recall someone saying that the error is normal and should be ignored but others on the T-Mo websites say otherwise.

Any help/advice is appreciated. Oh the device isn't bricked, I just wish to perform nandroid backups.

[G1 General] bolmedias:
So I've gone and used package installer to install Amazon MP3 on my rooted G1. I got the .apk for Amazon MP3 from one of JF's old US builds. I'm running Dude's Cupcake. I can play the 30 second previews no problem, but I'm reluctant to start buying any music at the moment. This is because I live in the UK, and I will be using a UK debit card to buy the music. Would Amazon MP3 work with a UK card?
[G1 General] chrisboyle:
I've tried before; it doesn't work. It fails to authorise my UK payment card. If you had a US credit/debit card, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I don't know why Amazon don't replicate their Android offering in the UK, since they do sell MP3s on their UK website (not that you can use that fully on Android; it needs their downloader to interpret amz files). Not that it bothers me much, I just use play.com/mp3 (which gives you zip files).
[G1 General] bolmedias:
That sucks. How does the app actually work? Does it use Amazon accounts or does it just use payment cards?

just got from my widget new 3g coverage coming by quarter. third quarter for me buffalo ny YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
[G1 General] maxdamage2122:
^^ bad link

http://droiddeveloper.com/upcoming-tmo-3g-launch-dates/
[G1 General] DOHCtor:
Yay, Corona, CA. It's about damn time too. Although, if I drive barely 5 miles west I get 3g and also get 3G at my workplace which is in Los Angeles county. It's only at my house where I only get Edge connection.

edit: 3rd quarter, so that means I will be getting 3g in my city sometime between June and September, nice...looks like I will no longer have to turn on wifi when I get home.
[G1 General] Master Loon:
Damn this 3g thing sucks (lack of).

If I go the nyc The speed is beautiful. In westchester too. I get to Stamford and get a weak signal by UBS and nothing anywhere else. In norwalk, I get a 3g sinal once in a blue. random times in the evening. And when I realize it the speeds are horrible. Damn T mo. I know you can dish out the signal...Hurry/

I waited so long, but 3Q for CT seems so far away.:(
[G1 General] Sock Monkey:
When they add 3G coverage to a city how big of a radius is effected? I'm about 40 miles from Manchester, NH and 50 miles from Portland, ME (both second quarter upgrades according to the link). I know those distances are quite large but using the Boston 3G as a reference on Tmobile's coverage checker (which is currently down) it covers a pretty wide span.

Will I notice a difference?
[G1 General] Dantehman:
There is a possibility youll see a difference, just depends on location i.e living in a Valley etc, im not overly familiar with the US topography as i only know the tourist destinations of Florida, California and Vegas Baby!!

Im from England,, where Bump mapping was something Cartographers used to do to their wives :D

all i can say is im with 3G and i live about 40 miles from Manchester (UK) and 15 Miles from Sheffield (UK) so where ever there is a big City, for me there is 3G :cool:

Its good to hear 3G is rolling out for you! :cool:

[G1 General] CBowley:
Where are you from? I'm moving back to Manchester in a month, I'm excited about 3g :). I live in Nashua now and there's no 3g till around Lowell and south and it's blotchy. As it is in Manchester Edge is blotchy and at my moms house I only get gprs, but near Elm street and east I get Edge. I was working in Beverly mass and I get some 3.5g out there. 2nd quarter is april - june correct? So I should be getting 3g real soon.
[G1 General] jordanjay29:
There were quite a few blind spots in the 3G network in the Minneapolis/St Paul (Minnesota) northern suburbs, but this past Tuesday, T-Mobile turned on their new 3G towers. It's great to have 3G at work now, and I can actually do some webbrowsing on my breaks.
