[Droid X General] dreamersipaq:
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I did search and found nothing:

I had an Inc. before, and traded to the X for the screen, and physical buttons which I like.

However, as we all know the X blows in comparison to the Inc. in terms of development; so I have to ask since I'm trying to decide what to do:

1) Is the kernel responsible for preventing us from things like notification toggles, notification recent apps, etc... ?

2) When Gingerbread/Ice Cream comes out, are we pretty much at moto's will w/o being able to modify the kernel?

3) What are the chances of seeing CM6 on the X specifically? I'd love to see it, but am no longer hopeful I guess

4) I saw that ccvp (or something like that) was able to hijack moto's init. Is this pretty much dead, or is there still work for it?

I don't really care that birdman stopped dev work on the X (he was responsible for a lot, i know) but will tear if more devs switch to other phones.

Any Ideas?

Again, sorry if all this was already covered.

P.S. I have programming, and Java experience so I WAS thinking to start trying to do some sort of cracking on this myself, but too afraid to brick my only phone :(
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
The inability to boot a custom kernel is the one and only roadblock to full custom ROMs like Cyanogenmod. And while I would never say 'never', I would not count on a hack showing up soon. Just go check in on the Milestone people (same bootloader)

Having said that, I would encourage you to go look at what's being done in the dev subforum. Roms like Tranquility, Apex, Zapx and the early Rubix roms are very solid, but removing much of the blur stuff.

Most recently, Fission & Rubix 1.0 are building just about the entire base from AOSP, using almost none of the motorola blur overhead.

Also, hacks have been recently released to overclock the processor.

All in All,there are certainly some limitations imposed by the kernel situation, but there is also still quite a bit happening.
[Droid X General] luv2increase:
I'd also like to add that it is virtually impossible to truly brick the DX now since the official OTA 2.2 SBF has been leaked.

The only thing we don't have on the DX is custom kernels. However, with all we do have at our disposal, I don't really care at all. I can fully theme, overclock, use all the root apps, etc...

I don't know whether or not the DX will get Gingerbread. It certainly is a possibility. However, I will be upgrading to the newer device designed for Gingerbread. When I say this, I mean a phone that's display can do 1024 by 720 resolution. Also, many of the top-end upcoming phones are going to have autostereoscopic 3D displays. Did I mention that many Gingerbread phones will have dual-core CPUs and GPUs with graphics which rival the PS3 and xBox 360? Well, they will :)

Remember, Verizon is going to probably do the same thing they did with the DX. They will let people get the 2-year account renewal price for the best upcoming phone even if you just renewed your 2-year contract this year. If someone renewed their contract with the DX and got it for $199, they will be able to do the same thing in December/January with the top-end Gingerbread phone most likely for $199 too :)

Backup apps/settings to PC? possible?

Hi all, i have seen many threads regarding backup apps such as wave/titanium pro etc but im wondering if its possible to backup to a PC?

as much as its a naughty word, i liked apples way of backing up using itunes. you simply plugged in your phone and voila its backing up into a friendly restorable format.

i just want a simple backup of my device encase i flash to others roms.

is this possible?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
i don't know of such application.

but what is so bad about backing it up to the External SD card?

you want your backup to be with you all the time, so in case of "OMG! happens", you can easily Hard Reset, then restore from backup from the SD card.

once on the SD card, you can easily copy it over to your PC, the next time you hookup your USB cable.

if you want it done automatically, you can always create a script on your PC to grab X files from X folder every time the USB connects to X device

I love the backup software from PalmOS, they works automatically just as you wanted.

I never found a good one that actually works on WinMobile

in Android it's almost perfect, it just missing the part to sync the backups to the desktop automatically.

But that's a minor thing, as you can do the batch command mentioned above.

Hi Daniel, this is the wrong section. Your question belongs to the themes and apps section. Some moderator please move it.

Ciao Daniel, questa non è la sezione giusta, qui si parla di sviluppo, avresti dovuto inserire il post nella sezione "themes and apps" (temi e applicazioni).

Ad ogni modo, nel market ci sono diverse applicazioni per fare il backup dei dati.

prova a guardare qui:

www . cyrket . com/search?q=backup&market=android

Per fare il backup di contatti e sms non hai bisogno di root.

Personalmente ti consiglio "Titanium Backup", ha bisogno di root, però ti fa il backup di tutto quanto: applicazioni e dati.

Spero di esserti stato utile,

Yes, right.. to restore data and applications Titanium Backup needs root permissions.

Si, esatto.. per ripristinare i dati e le applicazioni Titanium Backup necessita dei permessi di root. La procedura non tarderà troppo ad arrivare, ci sono già alcuni kernel con root installato..

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarthV:
I'd imagine most people get nandroid from installing Clockwork. For the galaxy s phones, it doesn't flash a new recovery, but just installs itself as update.zip on your sd card. Boot into normal recovery, then run the clockwork update.zip to get into it. Nandroid is one of the items on the menu from there. One note about clockwork, it ends up using different keys for "select" than the default recovery menu. Normal uses the home key, clockwork uses the power button IIRC.

Can't restore backup with MyBackup

Used the 30-day trial of MyBackup Pro, called MyBackup, and I successfully saved contacts, bookmarks and SMS from within the "Data backup" menu.

I saved to local SD card (external), but after flashing JP6/JPM with Kies, MyBackup claims "Could not get backup set", even though I can clearly browse it. It's a folder called reware with some subfolders. When I read one of the files with notepad (extension .mbp), I can see the bookmarks and everything.

So why won't MyBackup read my backup?

Edit: Just for the record I didn't backup any apps, just some things from within "data" section.

Edit2: Just remembered I don't have root anymore, so that might be it. Will try CF-root and see.

Edit3: Root didn't fix anything, but it turned out I had to copy the folder from sdcard to sd.

Do i just copy theese files /folders over to my pc, install a new firmware or a new rom, copy the files/ folders back to same location on the phone, and if ****s melts down, can i then just restore from rom manager and everything should be back to same state again?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BronzedDroid:
As I wrote in the third edit: Use the built in file manager (My files?) and find the rerware folder. Copy it to the folder named:

"sd" - the complete path is /mnt/sdcard/sd (you can see it at the top)

It will NOT work in

"external_sd" - complete path /mnt/sdcard/external_sd

This is correct if you use froyo (2.2)
