I have v9 with capacitive screen with android 2.2. Can i use the above method to extract the ROM out for you guys to try.

Going to be tough but will try.

************** pasted from above*****************************

TO create a dump you need root and to use the files inside the rar bellow

there's a txt inside explaind but i'll resume it here

1 Copy to: /system/bin e and change permissios to 777.

Then run the command that will make the dump image's from the device to the sd card with the name system.img .

(2.-Unzip

3.-adb pull mkyaffs2image /sdcard

4.-adb shell

5.-su

6.-cat /sdcard/mkyaffs2image > /system/bin/mkyaffs2image

7.-chmod 777 /system/bin/mkyaffs2image

8.-mkyaffs2image /system /sdcard/system.img)

You can repeat the process using, boot, recory, ftm but the one its needed is system.

no 2.2 dump ? :-(
[Android Software Development] bitye:
I can dump on wednesday, if the phoen arrives, monday-tuesday will nonworking days here in hungary.

But for your information, this is real 2.2, a guy got one for 2 weeks of testing fro mTelenor hungary, and he asked ZTE about the ROM, and got, this is final Froyo for the tablet answer.

3 days... if nobody publish a dump for you, and I will.

Thanks bitye

I had success with Universal Android 1.6.2 beta 5 to root my ZTE (with 2.1)

Will try once I get 2.2 on, but having some difficulties as Clockworkmod recovery aborts when pointing to your zip.

From what I can see this is a raw romdump. Can anybody help to turn this into a recovery image?

Thanks
[Android Software Development] Swedroidman:
A big thanks to you bitye and Sebastian404 !!

I have a ZTE Light with 2.1 and what should i do to get 2.2 ?

Should i put in the "recovery-clockwork-3.0.1.4-light" on my device and then use

Froyo dump TELENOR_V9V1.0.0B01

Or

ROM created from my 2.2 rooted and all extras added

An install guide should be much appreciated!!

And does anyone have the Drivers for Win 7 64-bit?

Thanks !!
[Android Software Development] bitye:
No Win7 drivers, and ROM not working on old devices, and very hard to get back to your 2.1, but If you can flash recovery and have working ADB you can try. ONLY WHEN YOU 100% SURE THAT YOU CAN RESTORE!!!
[Android Software Development] gregbull:
I read on the zte forum that the hardware for the newer European ZTE tablets are different then the older ones, so it is unlikely that this rom will work :(

Hopefully I'm wrong.
[Android Software Development] Swedroidman:
Thanks bitye and gregbull for fast answer, lets hope somebody can fix up a working 2.2Rom for the older V9 with 2.1..

I just want my contact pictures to save to my contacts, and for my contacts to be saved to Google. :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rastanthology:
To backup your contacts to your phone you could just click menu from the contact list and select export.

To backup them with google you just have to select the option Sync Contacts under Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> your gmail account

it is usually selected by default though...

after that, wait for it to sync and check your google account from your computer and go to contacts to check if they are there

the pics are backed up as well; they will not show on the contact list on your gmail account, but click on a contact and it will show you the picture ;)

just as easy as that, if you flash/change/etc your phone, when you put your google account afterwards it will download all your contacts with their pics from google

I have no Google Contacts. I copied all my SIM Contacts to my Phone. From there on out, how to make them Google Contacts, I'm at a loss.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LBCaptivate:
I don't need my Google contacts to sync since they sync fine. It is the contacts that are saved to my phone that will not sync to google. I do not want to backup my contacts to the sim card since some of them have multiple #s. When you backup to the sim card each phone number under one contact is saved as an individual contact giving you multiple entries for one contact. My phone is still stock. I did a master reset to see if it would help with the shutdown issue, which by the way, did not help. It just created problems with all my contacts. Some were lost and others now have the wrong numbers associated with them. The only contacts that stayed the same were the Google contacts. The phone contacts were all messed up. I plan on getting the phone replaced under warranty and don't want to go through the headache of having to redo all the phone contacts again.

Just looking for a way to completely backup a stock phone. AT&T address book is useless now because of the JH7 update.

[Nexus S General] momohammed20:
Hi everyone,

I'm starting this thread to show you guys that not all Nexus S AMOLEDS are the same. I purchased a Nexus S on launch day from one store, and my brother bought a nexus S from another best buy store. We were comparing each others phones, and mine turned out to be darker than his, specifically the whites. We compared our screens at full brightness, and we set the same backgrounds, and his was noticeably better looking. So I went and exchanged mine, the new one I got still suffered from having darker whites, but it was not as bad as the first one, so when we compared them again, his was still better. I took a few pictures of the new one i got compared with his (on right). It may not look like much, but if you look at it in person, it's very noticeable when they are next to each other. I think you guys should compare your nexus s with a display model at a store, or with someone else to see what I'm talking about. I think it's easiest to see what i'm talking about if you look at the search widget. Like I said the first one I had was worse, but I'm comparing the newly exchanged one (left) with my brothers (right).

I went through this when I bought dual monitors for my computer. It is nearly impossible to find two monitors exactly the same. You will not know the difference unless you keep comparing it to others.
[Nexus S General] tks989:
in your pix... no to wallpapers are alike
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
lol thats true. it made me laugh lol

download a solid white wallpaper. set the brightness to the highest. if one of them is cool blue white then this is good screen. if its warm yellowish white, then its a bad screen.

also there is the issue with pinkish disaplay. download a solid gray wallpaper. set the brightness to the lowest, if the gray turns to pink a little. you have a defective screen no matter what others tell you. if it stays gray " like my old Samsung Galaxy S " then you have a perfect screen.

AND there is also the grid pattern matrix you can see on the lowest brightness on the same gray wallpaper. ALL of them are more visible on the Super Amoled screens, just try to get one that is not very noticable.

if you got all those 3 perfectly " with no dead pixels or stuck pixels. then your phone worth alot.

i sold my galaxy S USED more than i bought it NEW because of these effects when i mentioned them to the buyer and he saw with his own eyes the difference. plus it didnt have single scratch on the whole phone so it was like a brand new.
[Nexus S General] rashad1:
nit picking, there basically the same
[Nexus S General] princeasi:
No one's nitpicking. It's a matter of what you're willing to settle for. I paid my 580.00 for a phone to display the colors correctly. I didn't pay that much for the display to change colors just because I lower the brightness.
[Nexus S General] momohammed20:
it's hard to show what i'm talking about in the picture, but in person (picture was taken with iphone 4, so it wont show that much), it is very noticeable if the two are side by side.
[Nexus S General] momohammed20:
ya, after i took pics, i realized they were not on the same page on the home screen.
[Nexus S General] matt310:
This is a very common issue on the Galaxy S phones too. Different suppliers are used in the manufacturing process resulting in some screens with warmer color temps, and others with cooler ones. The Engadget review of the Nexus S specifically called out a warmer temp by the way.
[Nexus S General] vroomr4:
Dumb question, but did you verify that the brightness levels in settings are set to the same values? Or at least compared the two phones when at the lowest and highest settings?
[Nexus S General] momohammed20:
ya, i actually made sure they were both brightest, and when they are both on the lowest, you can tell one of them displays brighter whites. But the first one I had was worse than the one I have in the pictures on the left, it's hard to notice that you have a screen that does not produce nice whites, unless you see another nexus s that does a better job.
[Nexus S General] kindiboy:
I actually like the ones on the left, the ones on the right crush the blacks, resulting in basically everything washed out, even if it "looks" better to you, it isn't from a calibrator prospective.
[Nexus S General] Psosmith82:
The Evo 4G had the same thing going on with its display. HTC used 2 different Manufacturers for the screen, One Novatec, One Was Epson. I believe the Novatec panel had darker colors (warmer?) resulting in more of a purplish color on blacks (what ll_l_x_l_ll calls pink for whatever reason) While the epson didnt have any purplish tone, but most say had a washed out look.

I would say though that on the nexus S, probably 99% of them are going to have a little purplish effect on the lowest brightness setting. If the OPs brothers phone has no purplish color, that would be the first i have seen. Ive seen many many demo units, several video reviews, and even the 2.3 rom ported to other galaxy S phones, and they all have the "purplish" display.

All my whites on my phone are really white, and blacks are really black.

Only be concerned if your screen looks like this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=882862

That would definatley warrant an exchange, because they are NOT supposed to look like that.

My Screen looks better than his I9000 though too, but that could be his camera too washing out the colors a bit
[Nexus S General] dirk1978:
Yeah my camera isn't great, it was poor light but it was enough to show the difference.

My i9000 screen is pretty incredible, I'd be impressed if I saw one better.

Oddly though, you say that if it turns blue when the brightness is turned right up, it's a good screen - my Nexus S does that. But it's yellow when the brightness is low.

Personally I think I'm going to take your advice in another thread. I'm going to return this phone for a refund, enjoy using my i9000 for a while as it's now apparent that the screen is excellent (I never really had GPS issues either, so I'm pretty lucky), and go around stores when they have stock to find a screen that compares favourably against my i9000. I'm in a nice position that I can do a side-by-side comparison each time.
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
bazinga.

hit under the belt.
[Nexus S General] RogerPodacter:
Why not load up Google site in the browser to do your comparison? That way its identical.
[Nexus S General] zeeklancer:
lol

So, I guess not many of you have ever messed around with the LCD monitor in front of you (if you have one).

Mine I can set to be a cool white or a warm white.

Here is the real problem... Your brother is smarter than you. You see, there is a difference maybe in the screens. But instead of him *****ing about it, he likely just said his was better. Thus leaving you with the **** screen.

The tables could have been turned if you would have said "HAHA your screen is broken, and mine is better" the second you found the screens were different. Then it would be him here all upset about the screen.

The things people ***** about on this form are just crazy. And no, I don't care about how much you spent on your phone. When you buy any product you should only have a expectation that it is usable, not perfect. And thats mostly because perfect is mostly opinion when it comes to things like this.

Also, this is a phone, not a pro display marked for having the most accurate color production.

What kills me most is the people who take phones back over and over for problems that only exist in their heads. All you are doing is raising the cost of phones and keeping them high for everybody else.
[Nexus S General] DJTaurus:
Guys i am not sure if it is a hardware problem...a friend of mine reported the yellowish effect is his galaxy s but this happens only when the brightness is setted in auto.:)
[Nexus S General] momohammed20:
Yup, because I returned my first phone, everyone is going to suffer from price increases :rolls eyes: . Also, maybe if you saw my first phone compared to the good one in person, you would think otherwise.
[Nexus S General] zeeklancer:
No, not one person is going to casue a price increase. But that is what everybody thinks so they do it. Count how mmany people returning their phones for things that are moot. Some guy here I think did 4 phones.

At least its not as bad ad the G2 people. They were return happy about not likening the hindges.

[Nexus S General] princeasi:
What an idiotic statement! We're not speaking of "LCD monitors" we're speaking of a very noticeable display issue with our SAMOLED phones. I am absolutely positive I'm not on a head trip. I've seen an NS demo unit in the hands of a BB rep displaying its colors correctly. My personal usage with this device will differ from how you use yours. When I purchase a smartphone, visuals is one of the key essential features I look for in a device, this is one of the reasons why I pay top dollar for a communication device.
[Nexus S General] GoogleAndroid:
I have a Fascinate, sorry that I'm posting in the Nexus S forum, but that's besides the point. This is actually my second phone. The first one had speaker issues. There is, however, a big difference in screens. This one is tinted yellow below 50% brightness and certain shades of darker colors have an ugly red hue. My first Fascinate did not have these issues. The whites were blue tinted(which didn't bother me), but I could turn my brightness down without having an ugly yellow tinge to the screen. And darker colors did not have the red tinge. Looking at store demos of other Galaxy S's, I believe it is a defect.

[Nexus S General] ale0crysis:
different wallpapers = fail
[Nexus S General] riskyTrousers:
So which of these screens do you guys think is the good one? Both at lowest setting on google mobile page.
[Nexus S General] princeasi:
How about if you set both to the lowest bright setting thru the power widget. Next, goto clock and tap. Then, while on the clock homescreen, tap the dim icon on the upper righthand corner and lets see if the bottom bar with tabs stays grey or changes to a purple-ish tint on both phones. Id like to see that please!....but to answer your question, the one on the bottom, or if you change the photo to the correct orientation, it would be the one to the right looks better.
[Nexus S General] riskyTrousers:
Ok here's the pic.

Same orientation. A slight difference but it looks like the one on the left has a lower purple hue.

,
[Nexus S General] faizalmzain:
ditto!!!!!!!
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
the lower one is the good one in this pic
[Nexus S General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
the one is on the left in this pic. less pink
[Nexus S General] princeasi:
Yeah definitely the one to the left looks better. what location was that specific one purchased?
[Nexus S General] riskyTrousers:
So the one on the right looks better on the low screen brightness setting, but looks worse in the dim clock setting. It really doesn't sound like one screen is definitively better than the other.

Just an FYI, at max brightness they both look almost identical.

I'm starting to think that color calibration was really sloppy. You either get warm/yellow colors or cool/purple.
[Nexus S General] riskyTrousers:
They were both purchased from the BB in glendale.
[Nexus S General] princeasi:
the one to the left looks as if it kept its greys down at the tabbed bar below in the dimmed clock mode. is it true??
[Nexus S General] riskyTrousers:
Yes, but has a yellow tint in low brightness settings when compared to the on on the right.
[Nexus S General] princeasi:
dayum, ill take the yellow tint over the purpleish anytime. It appears its closer to true color than the other. maybe i need to take a trip to glendale and try an exchange!
[Nexus S General] :
It's been said before, display devices are rarely, if ever color calibrated at the assembly line. Apple might be one of the few companies that do this.

Very very few high end displays will match each other, even siblings on an assembly line. It's the downfall of having 250ppi displays at the size and pricepoint they are at.

Because we can actually put them side by side you can tell the difference.

Color tint is a PERSONAL preference. When it doesn't line up with your purchase it's a problem, when it does, then the screen is "perfect".

Not one person here has actually proven which screen is "truer" because not one person in here has used a spectrometer to measure true color values.

Amoled screens have a propensity to have a higher variation as well.
[Nexus S General] princeasi:
I dont need a spectrometer to know the colors on my phone. Finding out "true color values" wouldn't help me. I'm going off of what I "See", and i know that certain shades of gray shouldn't change to a purplish, pink, red, etc whenever the brightness is dimmed. I know this because Ive personally seen other N1's and NS's that didn't do this! I even went to a T-mobile store and compared mine to a reps galaxy s that didn't have the issue, and the difference was apparent!
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
Colors look the same... just different brightnesses. Which begs the question, which one is "correct"? Frankly, the brighter one would burn my retinas... I'd prefer the dimmer one.
