Can you clarify the steps required?

1. make Nandroid backup of current setup.

2. wipe data

3. make Nandroid of stock setup and post here.

4. use Recovery to load Nandroid from step1 to get your apps/data etc back.
[Defy Android Development] jboogie3:
correct those are the steps.. sorry for not stating the steps needed
[Defy Android Development] adlx.xda:
@JBookieBop: isn't it easier for the users to just do the nandroid backup and post only system.img & boot.img (but not data.img of course!)? (at least it was good for the Cliq/CliqXT phones).
[Defy Android Development] jboogie3:
Hey there M3 mate :) yes it would but the recovery we have available Currently only allows us to back up everything. But we can restore just the system or data.
[Defy Android Development] cmstlist:
I seem to remember that most recovery versions create a checksum file that includes everything you originally backed up. So if you create a nandroid backup with every partition, but you post it without data.img, then it may fail the checksum on restore. Unless there is a way around this.
[Defy Android Development] Sqoerk:
I'l have a look this evening if I can get a clean Nandroid. :D

Try posting it on Multiupload. That way you get some redundancy.

I'm a little lost.

If I do a backup of my original Spanish Vodafone ROM, if I have a problem and I must send my defy to repair, I can send the phone with the original firmware, unroot and with the original recovery? Or this is impossible as the moment?

Sorry, I'm not used to write in english often.
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
You should be able to, just remember to unroot it before sending it in?

Actually I don't know about the stock recovery, that is Tenfar's problem.
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
This is the stock US rom, ripped off a just-opened US T-Mobile Defy, right out of the box! I will upload until at least 5 people have the torrent, but this is something you should keep if you screw up.

http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/6075565

You need a torrent client such as uTorrent to download this, but it is completely safe, I promise.
[Defy Android Development] cmstlist:
Could you also post it to multiupload.com or such?
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
Well I don't have an account there. Why is that better? Can't you download torrents?
[Defy Android Development] flatlining:
If somebody could point me some tutorials on how to do this four steps i can provide the BR rom.

For those how like me are new to android:

Rooting the device

Root Motorola Defy

Customize Recovery

Clockwork MOD recovery for Moto Defy

Video with all the steps

How to root and install custom recovery

And finally how to backup and recovey (for the 4 steps)

How to backup or recover via Nandroid

I reallize that im posting during a new year party, tomorrow i'll try to make the backup then post it here.
[Defy Android Development] cargohook:
@CleanSweep93: Please Seed! Please....?

The torrent is stuck at 19%.
[Defy Android Development] cargohook:
Why multiupload is better than a torrent

Well, it's better to upload to multiupload.com because that way folks don't have to depend on you to seed. Once it's uploaded it's there permanently for anybody who wants to download it. Upload it once, and you're done with it, nobody will nag you about seeding....

You don't need an account, just upload it anonymously and post the link here...

Pretty please?
[Defy Android Development] rob-t:
Torrents are only a fast method of distribution if the original uploader has a fast connection. With 1 seed and 10 peers, you need to either unthrottle your connection so that we can actually get the file distributed, or please post the file to a website like MediaFire, which allows you to upload w/o an account.
[Defy Android Development] cmstlist:
Right, since your connection is likely a home Internet service with slow upload rates, the most efficient way to distribute would be to upload once to a service that can distribute the file to multiple people.
[Defy Android Development] MarSOnEarth:
At this moment it seems that those who might have gotten the complete download from the original seed are not seeding, assuming some did. My download, and I guess everybody else's who's currently online, is stuck at 42.3% of total, i.e. we are all waiting for each other, but no one has the missing parts. My BT clients shows no seeds at the moment, and unless those who did get the complete download seed, this will not get through any time soon, if at all. Come on people! Don't be selfish. P2P works well if there are enough participants, each seeding each other. This is even more important for software of relatively limited appeal. There are only so many of us that want/need this ROM, so it requires a commitment from all involved.
[Defy Android Development] cargohook:
Torrent Stuck at 42%: Possible Solution ;-)

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I just sent a friendly PM to CleanSweep93, encouraging him to either SEED his stock ROM backup, or upload it to Multiupload, etc. and post the link here. I told him basically, that we're not yelling at him, we're giving him props that he has done some extremely important work... But that, unfortunately, the problem is nobody in the community at present is able to benefit from it. So I suggested that many community members are so desperate for this ROM backup, that he should enable a PayPal donation link and accept donations.

I can only speak for myself, but if I could actually finish this download, I'd love to buy CleanSweep93 a beer! Who's with me? Let's all emphasize that we're a community and we're all here to help each other.... :D
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
I am going to upload it to multiupload in the next few minutes. It isn't completely stock, though, as it has root, but it was necessary to get it off my brother's defy obviously.
[Defy Android Development] MarSOnEarth:
OK, that worked ;) Things are moving now. I'm already at 77%, and at around 75% another seed appeared, so someone is ahead of me. After I get 100% I'll just keep seeding as long as there's interest. Good work, and thanks!
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
It will be 20 minutes, and I will continue to seed the torrent for whoever wants it.
[Defy Android Development] MarSOnEarth:
This may not be necessary as long as we all stay and seed, but it will be a good backup for later. Thanks for doing and sharing this US ROM backup!
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
I already am at 30% on the upload to multiup, no point in stopping now...
[Defy Android Development] cargohook:
YEEEEAH!

GOT IT! :D

I'm gonna TRY AND un-root it and upload a new version to multiupload...

Thanks CleanSweep93!!!!

Let us know when we can "buy you a beer"....
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
Don't you need it rooted to back it up?

EDIT 12:55: 70%
[Defy Android Development] MarSOnEarth:
OK, I'm at 100% and so are 6 others. My system runs 24/7 and even though for now no one is downloading, there will be those who will want this later. A permanent upload to filesharing site for those who will wake up to this much, much later (like days later ;)) would be a good thing.

[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
And I dont have a paypal so whatever, I am a senior in high school.
[Defy Android Development] cmstlist:
Since the custom recovery is a bootstrap, yes you need root every time you launch the bootstrap, because it modifies partitions that are normally read-only to initiate the process.

But I think some of the one-click root apps also have an unroot option that will clean up and leave it unrooted.
[Defy Android Development] MarSOnEarth:
Ehhh, it's only past 23: on the West coast ;)
[Defy Android Development] cargohook:
Well, seniors can drink beer, can't they??? :D
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
Ayy everyone got blacked last night...
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
We are down to four seeders... I guess that multiupload was a good idea.
[Defy Android Development] MarSOnEarth:
Up to 6, but no one is downloading much; so yes, it's a better way for such a limited distribution that may span a long time. Thanks for doing it both ways.

I am a Noob here and need to know how did CleanSweep create the Nandroid backup without retaining the MotoBlur Details..
[Defy Android Development] cmstlist:
I would assume that the poster of that backup initiated a wipe from within custom recovery and then took a backup immediately after.
[Defy Android Development] superfastmonkey:
I think I love you!

I just got mine back from Telstra after 3 weeks getting the earpiece repaired. I installed the latest Recovery which sent it into a bootloop- I have loaded a uk rom with rSDLite, but can not figure out ADB at all to get the Next G etc working... I used the older version of Recovery and I have an old backup loading on (the latest could not find my backups), but I am much relieved to know I can go back to how it was- especially if this doesn't work.

Thanks heaps,

Hi guys,

I'm new in Android so bare with me, i use LG Optimus One P500, and just recently downloaded and installed Sandstorm Modern combat by gameloft.

I downloaded the game via droidX.

Installed the APK into my phone.. I was able to run the application, but it crashes in the middle of the initial movie playing. ( I have to skip the movie by tapping on the screen and hit next)

So, I can skip the movie, and start a new game or select level.

while mission briefing, i can hear the sound, but the screen is not responding, so it crashed again..

I think my phone can take this game on, I can run heavy apps like raging thunder and legends pocket.

anyone's Idea is welcome,

TIA!!

I went to a large Carphone Warehouse store in the centre of Bristol today. No Nexus S dummy models on display, no posters, no literature.

I asked an employee about the phone and here's how the conversation went:

- "Hi, do you have any Nexus Ss in stock?"

-- "Nexus what?"

- "Nexus S, it's the new phone from Google & Samsung"

-- "Sorry, haven't heard of it" :confused:

- "Err... it came out today and it's a Carphone Warehouse exclusive"

-- "Well... we'll probably get some in next week"

I know this isn't exactly the launch of the next iPhone, but you'd think since Carphone Warehouse have paid to be the only distributor in the UK, they might at least have a poster or something saying 'Coming Soon'.

I'll be disappointed if in the new year the tech sites start reporting poor Nexus S sales and lack of consumer interest in the UK. I fear that with a launch like this, the phone doesn't have a chance :(
[Nexus S General] jaju123:
Nexus s doesn't come out until the 22nd in the UK.

Hopefully Google does better next time. Best Buy as reseller is EPIC FAIL however. :(

[Nexus S General] TheMaverick:
Carphone warehouse haven't got a clue half the time, i've been in that place countless times, asking about products, and they don't have a clue! But they know everything about the iPhone, typical.
[Nexus S General] reckon3r:
I went in to a store in Newcastle today and they told me that they weren't getting any in store at all.
[Nexus S General] umbrella42:
In UK Nexus S is non-distributed exclusively by Carphone Warehouse, a as worse as Best Buy company.

This is so ridiculous - Eric Schmidt must be a Monty Python fan.
[Nexus S General] davados:
Vodafone was just like this with the n1 when it first came out. It might go down to profit margins compared to the more favorable models of phones that have a bigger profit. Nexus phones are good solid phones but don't seem to be the taste of Joe public only a small number. I'm not to sure why Google is with Vodafone again the only thinking i have behind this is they branch across Europe and parts of Asia.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullseye8877:
Hello, guys. This is my first post after lurking for a while, adding roms and getting all of the good stuff for my captivate. But i bumped across the new market. I didn't follow instructions completely and deleted the market. So how should I fix this? I don't want to reflash my phone, because this would take 6 days and I am going on vacation in a few days, and I don't think I will survive without my beloved phone.

Any help on how to download the market app would be much appreciated. I have the android market app v2.12 but it will not let me install through my computer...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Still have the *.apk for the new market? If not you can go to the Themes Forum and do a search there - someone had the *.apk file for the new market app. You can download it - put it on your SDCard and then run it through your file manager - should install and your back in business.

Will need to use the SEARCH feature to find it though as I don't have the link.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullseye8877:
Allright, thanks. I hope this works because normally I could not install apps directly to my phone because of at&t but i will try this.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
btw.. are you on a stock ROM (2.1) or have you flashed to a custom ROM? Also if your phone isn't rooted this method won't allow you to install the app.

Sorry forgot to mention it.

And uh.. it never takes me 6 days to flash - usually takes me about 15-20 minutes to flash back to stock, install the new ROM, and restore my applications/app data.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullseye8877:
It WAS on android 2.2 but I'm not sure if it is anymore because i tried restoring it to factory settings. And I'm talking about sending it to samsung to reflash it, I don't know how to do it myself :/
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullseye8877:
Oh, and yes. It is rooted.

and the app from there is kind of messed up... Very glitchy (crashes a lot and lags like crazy) and doesn't show every app in searches, like z4root which is how i easily rooted my phone the first time.

So i really just want the old market back but it will just not let me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Go into Menu -> Settings -> About Phone and look to where it says "Firmware Version". If it says 2.2 and your phone has been rooted it should work fine.

Otherwise... you would at least need to Root it if on 2.2.

And if your not on 2.2? I'm not sure if this will work as I know it was pulled from a 2.2 updated phone.
