Ironically, in attempting to install cwm on the froyo build, it actually installed on the emmc portion.. works just fine. Sadly, cwm will not show on the froyo build...
[Nook Color Android Development] Sigvard:
Is there any way to change the three-finger salute to a different button configuration? My Vol+ key is kinda messed up and doesn't always register presses so I've been actually having a hard time getting into recovery mode.
[Nook Color Android Development] starkruzr:
Yeah, it INSTALLS, but this is a really good point. It backs up. Does it do a Nandroid restore? If you wipe /system and /data and restore from what is backed up, do you get a stock NC?

Can ANYONE confirm/deny this?
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
Yes, I fubared everything pretty bad, but had a backup. I recovered with a backup through CWM recovery and I'm back in business. Thank you CWM recovery! Looking forward to 2.2 rom.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
I guess my device is different, but i can get to recovery with JUST power and the n button. hold them both for about 5-6 seconds, release, and boom.. cwm..
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
When I restored in did not come back as stock, it was just like I had left it when I did the backup.
[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
So, if I copy the four img files and the md5 file that it created to my PC -- system, data, cache, boot, nandroid.md5 -- Then I should be able to recover at any time in the future simply by placing those back onto an SD card and entering CWR at boot, right?
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
I tried CWR at boot and it didn't work. Hit restore and just got the hat logo. Had to go through the ROM Manager to restore. That did work.

Edit: Oops. Later I tried the restore from boot and worked just as well as initiating from rom manager. I was just not hitting the right keys--I was so used to hitting the power button to initiate a command. Didn't come to me later that perhaps it was the 'n' key.
[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
What didn't work? Did you try to initiate a restore from CWM's boot menu, but it failed?
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
Yes. It would not initiate the restore from the CWM boot menu. Nothing failed--it just wouldn't start.

Edit: Oops. Later I tried the restore from boot and worked just as well as initiating from rom manager. I was just not hitting the right keys--I was so used to hitting the power button to initiate a command. Didn't come to me later that perhaps it was the 'n' key.

This has obviously been covered in DagentooBoy's thread - which is great.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=761045

But I tried it and it doesn't work, even with the SGS Unlocker, tried the WinXP (PC way) first.

The version I'm running is Android 2.1 update 1.

I get this when I try running it through the PC.

Sometimes when I turn my phone on I get asked to enter the SIM pin, but I hit DISMISS and get into the phone. The next screen says "Phone Locked", but I swipe and enter the phone.

Will buying an unlock code from one of eBay unlockers work or not?

I feel like I bought a brick here. lol

Anyways, any input would be greatly appreciated. I'm not looking to do anything else to it other than unlock and use it for now. While I'm fairly competent with doing this tech-stuff, the Android stuff is a step above for me, so I wanna take my time to learn this all.

It's my first smartphone after using a Nokia 6265i for the past 5 years.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_6265 lol

So for me this phone is a treat as is, if only I can get it unlocked.

Thanks for your help and input.
[Vibrant General] chui101:
It's because adb can't get to the file without root. Happened to me too. I just manually copied the nv_data.bin over to my computer using the standard usb mass storage and ran sgux on it.

C:\androidsdk\tools>adb shell
/ $su
#cp /efs/nv_data.bin /sdcard
#exit
#exit

then mount the usb storage, copy over the nv_data.bin to the folder with sgux.exe in it (i put mine in c:\androidsdk), then:

C:\androidsdk>sgux nv_data.bin

and with any luck you'll have it.
[Vibrant General] koooba:
Okay, I understand a bit. but I'm not sure what all the coding is all about and how/what to do. You copied nv_data.bin from your phone to a location on the computer?

I set my Vibrant to mass storage and while it's not showing on MyComputer anywhere, the only thing that pops up is the microSD card with the movie on it.
[Vibrant General] jmcghee1973:
Correct... instead of androidsdk it would be wherever you saved it..
[Vibrant General] koooba:
Having one hell of a time accessing my phone via the computer.

It's connected, but no icon to click open or anything of the sort (inside MyComputer)

Ok, this is what I have on my screen now.

No EFS folder, no nv_data.bin, anywhere in the folders.
[Vibrant General] lralexl:
You need to use root explorer or adb(maybe astro) for access to your internal system directories. Just pull the file using adb like chui mentioned. If you aren't familiar with adb then I suggest you read up in the Vibrant bible.
[Vibrant General] koooba:
Wanna suggest a link to this almighty Vibrant Bible?
[Vibrant General] lralexl:
Well I just looked through it and there doesn't seem to be a thread specifically about adb file system actions.

Just open a command prompt and "cd" to your android sdk tools folder.

example: cd c:\sdk\tools

type:

adb shell

su

cp /efs/nv_data.bin /sdcard

exit

adb pull /sdcard/nv_data.bin /nv_data

that should get nv_data.bin into your tools folder under the folder nv_data. then just move the nv_data.bin into the sgux.exe folder
[Vibrant General] koooba:
I'll try this now, thanks Iral.
[Vibrant General] koooba:
Trying to type what you put, I can't remember for the life of me how to enter multiple command lines in command prompt. Hitting ENTER executes the first line. But I'm supposed to type all that out correct?
[Vibrant General] z0phi3l:
One line at a time
[Vibrant General] koooba:
Well, I installed the SDK toolkit, updated Java, done everything possible.

Been diligent and patient with this, but this Galaxy phone is about to enter the Galaxy. :p

Just typing adb shell (the first command) and I get this.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Post the output of ls err ...

dir
[Vibrant General] koooba:
Not following LQ, sorry?
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
The screenshot you've taken when you executed adb, go to the same folder (tools) and execute dir in MS-DOS window.

Need to see if adb.exe is there.
[Vibrant General] koooba:
I hope this is the one you mean.

I reinstalled SDK into c:\androidsdk and this was found in the \platform-tools folder
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
what happens when you connect your device to the usb port (usb debugging is enabled i presume), open the command prompt on your pc and issue

cd c:\androidsdk\platform-tools
adb.exe devices
[Vibrant General] koooba:
This happens (seems like it's good)
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Good,

now try

adb.exe shell

And what was the original post about :D?
[Vibrant General] koooba:
lol ya.

Well it runs, but it seems to stop with a blinking cursor after the $
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
That's good :)

now you can try the commands given to you on page 1 :)

while you are in that blinking cursor prompt (with the $) type:

su

On your phone you will get a pop-up, click allow

Prompt in the command prompt will change to "#" without quotes.

Then you can follow the rest of the instructions to get the nv_data.bin to unlock your phone.

P.S. I assume your phone is rooted, is it not?

P.S2. Also can you provide the build number from Settings->About phone ? Want to make sure you are on JFD instead of JI6.
[Vibrant General] koooba:
It's not rooted. My understanding was that to root, you had to unlock first.

But now I get it and will try to root one tomorrow.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Subsidy network unlock will allow your phone to be used on a different carrier as long as it supports that different carrier's frequencies. I.e., you can subsidy network unlock a T-Mo US Vibrant to be used on AT&T's network, etc.

You don't need to unlock it to root.

You root your phone if you'd like to make adjustments to the internal system of the phone. I.e. load a custom ROM, remove pre-installed bloatware, etc.

If you are after a subsidy network unlock code to make your phone carrier independent all you have to do is call T-Mo customer service, and request an unlock code for your device (need to supply IMEI number to T-Mo). If you have been a customer for 60 days or more, you will get your code in email within 48 hours.

I already convert my Leo WinMo 6.5 to NAND DFT so far so good but I notice all the application was installed on device memory.

Is there anyway to make the SD Card as default drive?

Thanks and Regards.

What you should have done, is download Apps2Sd from the market, and after that install the applications. It will save user space and all applications are installed on the SDCard.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kashka11:
i'm curious,

have you noticed any issues with the g-sensor calibration. I am also running the stock desire NAND and have an issue with the g-sensor which i think is causing a delay in the screen rotation.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lms1407:
Here is a quick guide from another user (i have pointed his thread)

Root your HD2 Android phone by donwloading z4root.apk.

Download and install ModInstallLocation.

In Superuser app, allow ModInstallLocation app.

In ModInstallLocation app choose location 2 (SD Card) and save

Maybe restart can't remember.

From now on any app you download will AUTOMATICALLY be installed on SD card. Also you can move your existing apps from Phone to SD in the Application settings.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10263940&postcount=1384

If you are using Cyanogen Mod NAND you already have root and options to install to sd and move to sd.

So far i have discovered that z4root works on Stock Desire and then i use move2sd.

here is a link to z4root guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833953

And it is also prefferable not to calibrate the G-sensor or to do so upside down! as stated in many posts.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Bluntastic:
correct me if i'm wrong but as far as i know the data.img is meant for emulating the phones internal storage respective the nand memory. it reserves a part of your sd - depending on the sice of your data.img.

since a nand version is stored in the phones nand (0o) there is no more need of emulating/reserving an internal storage on sd, thus, the old data.img is useless.

i have not flashed a nand version yet but i guess titanium backup will do the job from sd to nand version as well.

[Galaxy Tab General] gummo6869:
Dear Community,

I have been trying to root my Galaxy Tab for few days already (Yes, few days).

I followed all the instructions on the forum and used the z4root which I downloaded from the forum.

The device indicated "rooted" then I installed the Titanium Backup but an error saying "Sorry, I could not acquire root privileges. This application will *not* work! please verify that your ROM is rooted and includes BusyBox, and try again."

Therefore, I downloaded the BusyBox installer from the market and try to install the BusyBox. Now there is an error installing the BusyBox.......

It says "Your phone is rooted, BusyBox was not found!"

below that there is a detailed message in red saying "The application failed, either because your device is not nand unlocked or we were unable to remount. Please use logcat at this time, get it from the market, to send a log to StericDroid."

I have no clue what is wrong now and I cannot find anything about nand unlock for the Galaxy Tab. I needed to do a carrier unlock so bad....

Please help!

Here is my galaxy tab's information:

Model number: GT-P1000

Firmware version: 2.2

Baseband version: P1000XXJID

Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 root sep-53 #1

Build number: FROYO.ZHJK1

Thank you very very much!
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Do you have the "Superuser" application on your Tab? If so, try running it and check that Titanium is not disallowed.

If you don't have the app, chances are you are not rooted correctly - try SuperOneClickRoot.

If you do have Superuser, and Titanium is allowed, try clicking on "Problems" in Titanium and allow it to install its own version of BusyBox.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] gummo6869:
I have the "Superuser" appz installed but under the Apps, there is "No apps in list".

I also tried the Titanium "Problem?" solution before, it doesn't work. It downloaded the Busybox but indicated "installation failed, see web page for troubleshooting steps."

Should I "unroot" the device in z4root before I try the SuperOneClick Root?
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
It shouldn't make any difference.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] KarlMarsh:
I have had the same problem before. Install Busybox from inside of Titanium backup. Click on "Problems? " in the lower right hand corner of Titanium and allow it to install Busybox. Then you must select restart Titanium for the change to take effect. For some reason Titanium does not like the version of Busybox that is found in the market.

Edit: Sorry it looks like you have already tried that. I too recommend rooting again with SuperOneClick.

Yep, I used the "Permanent Root" not the "Temporary Root"

It is rooted by using z4root (that's what it said in the busybox installer) but cannot install Busybox.....

Please.... does anyone know how to do an NAND unlock for the Galaxy Tab?

Greatly appreciated~
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
As far as I'm aware, there is no NAND lock on most Galaxy Tabs. That doesn't mean that yours doesn't have a NAND lock, as it may be something "new" that Samsung are rolling out, but it would appear that people having this issue are in a tiny minority. We need to ascertain if there is anything different about your device.
