Your best bet would be to download the stock RUU, I think its in the stickies, you need to run it on your pc. I did it not too long ago and it brought my evo back to 'out of the box' condition
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bizdady:
How did you unroot? If you ran unrevoked you will need to download their s-on tool and flash that before your run the stock RUU or else you will keep your s-off.

So. I havent removed the foot ( didnt use the unrevoked forever so it is just the second method on that page) but whenever I try to use the RUU it fails. Says my device is not plugged in.

Any ideas on how to do it without using a RUU? Could I just flash a stock rom and then remove the root??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSilverStig:
Are you running the ruu from your computer or are you putting it on your sd card and flashing through recovery? Its not going to work from your comp because your plug is fried right? You're going to have to put the ruu on your sd card and flash from there to get back to stock.

[Vibrant General] SLG951:
I've been looking at all the tablets being released at CES this year and its overwhelming. I was wondering if anyone had any input about what they think is the best one to buy. There's just to many to look at to choose.
[Vibrant General] VeryCoolAlan:
The Motorola xoom

Pure honeycomb

Probably the best one as of right now.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
+1 Yup the xoom right now looks to be the best so far.

Is the one I'm the most interested in.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Trying to find more details on the LG that is coming to T-Mo, but the XOOM looks awesome with the Tegra2 and 10.1" display

Sent from my Nero powered Vibrant
[Vibrant General] SLG951:
Ya but it looks like the xoom will be a little under $1000 which is way to much. I really like the blakcberry playbook but kinda better to have a blackberry phone with that
[Vibrant General] brian4292:
moto xoom or any good honeycomb tablet, it can't $1000 because it has to compete with the ipad 2.
[Vibrant General] Clayfree:
I currently have the Viewsonic G Tablet. Tegra2, front facing cam and lots of great developers making roms for it. The one drawback is the LCD screen which has a narrow viewing angle. I'm looking for the same hardware with an upgraded screen. Most announcements at CES centered on cpu and screen size so I need to wait for better info on the screen. I already own an iPad and the screens are really good, it's just all the other limitations that drove me away from it. The other thing that Apple does really well is battery life, I never even thought about the iPad battery, it was good for days and even a week on a charge. So my short list of requirements: Tegra2, FF cam, 10" IPS screen and good battery life.
[Vibrant General] SLG951:
I have the same requirements when I'm looking. I would even take a 7in tablet if it had the right specs. Right now I'm just waiting on more info about the G-Slate, hope that turns out to be a good one.
[Vibrant General] Paticakeman:
I really want more info on the 10 inch toshiba tablet. That is the one that caught my interest.
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
The Xoom looks great but in a few months there's going to be a flurry of other devices that will be able to do 100% of what the Xoom can do. It only looks as good as it does because it's the only one with honeycomb "partially" working on it. The LG G Slate could be just as good, or who knows, maybe HTC will enter the tablet game. I would say Samsung but right now I'm not talking to them. They don't know how to treat paying customers.

The most innovative showing right now is the

NotionInk Adam

. It's hardware is almost identical to the Xoom, and it has that awesome Pixel Qi display (google this). It's shipping with 2.3 but the company promises a honeycomb update once the source is out. It has 2 full USB ports for peripherals or usb storage, a full HDMI port, 10 inch awesome screen, tegra 2, 1GB DDR2, 8GB onboard storage + MicroSD, Wifi or 3G models, camera that swivels 180 degrees, nice speakers, solid rubber rounded grip (have to see it to know what i'm talking about).

The reason I like this one so much is because it looks like they actually tried to make something new, where everyone else just had a knee jerk reaction to the ipads success and rushed to make an ipad clone.

The current gen iPad should still be at the top of most lists, because it's still really that good. And just wait until ver2.0 is released. We're in for some great geeky stuff.
[Vibrant General] techboydino:
I went to CES as press and saw probably at least 100+ tablets. Toshiba, Asus, and Visio had some nice ones. There were a few others such as Marvell, but hands down without a doubt the Moto Xoom killed it. My editor and I had a hands on interview with them on the Atrix and Xoom and have to say they absolutely nailed it. I have a Notion Ink Adam on order and cant wait for that, but the Xoom will probably be in my arsenal when it drops.

If your interested. Here is a quick hands on review at our site. I of course am taping and taking pics but I had plenty of time to actually check it out. Let me know if you have any questions about it, I might be able to share more from a hands on.
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
That was a nice read on your site.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Xoom got best in show not for nothing :) it will be amazing if they price it right and refrain from blur it with Motoblur and company.

One of the UK websites quotes the price at 719 quid, but as everyone said, they will have to do the competitive pricing to attract the customers from iPad2.
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
The Xoom is only going to be the best Android tablet until the 2nd honeycomb tablet comes out. I used to hate apple, but it's going to take more than a honeycomb video to sway me from getting that over the iPad2. Apple nailed it the first time, I can't imagine they couldn't nail it a second time.

[Vibrant General] anilo:
People should really read more about Notion Ink - Adam's specs and review the custom software on it (Eden). I have been following them since last year's CES event and am actually surprised not seeing everybody (I mean eveeeeerybody) drool over it. It easily beats every other tablet.

[Vibrant General] SLG951:
That was a good video, thanks for posting. I just wish I knew the final release date and price of the xoom so I could make my decision. It looks awesome from what I've seen. But then again those are just videos on the xoom not someone actually using it.
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
They should be marketing the hell out of that screen. It will be the first great tablet with a screen that is good indoors and outdoors in direct sunlight.
[Vibrant General] Clayfree:
Take a look at the Velocity Micro L510:

Tegra 250

1366 x 768 10" screen

Front & rear cameras

HDMI out

Bluetooth

GPS & eCompass

and a nice looking design.

No real specs yet on the screen but I'll keep watching it. Also that company make very affordable products. Should be available soon.

One trend that bothers me is these being attached to mobile carriers. I do not want or need mine to have 3g service(that's why I have a Vibrant with tethering). The carriers all require contracts. Most of the top tablets shows at CES were carrier attached.
[Vibrant General] ZX3ZX4:
Very informative video overview. Thanks for the post. Now I realize how fast my new netbook will be obsolete!
[Vibrant General] SLG951:
I feel the exact same way. The Velocity L510 looks perfect and cheap but I hope it gets honeycomb or it kinda makes it pointless to get. Will definitely keep an eye on this. Thanks for the info.
[Droid X General] blockhead42:
Is there a way to take a nandroid backup from a phone, and move it to another phone? I'm having an issue with my X's screen and it would make my life very easy if I could just use a nandroid backup to bring it back how I like it when Verizon gives me the new device.
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
Yes... You can.. but it would require someone to SBF their phone, then wipe data/cache. Then they would need to root their phone and install bootstrap all without every having set up any kind of accounts (fbook, gmail, etc.)

Whenever you take a nandroid, it captures all data on the phone...so essentially if you took a nandroid from someone who regularly uses their phone... you would wind up with all of their accounts and what not... Prob not something most people want to give out.

I would suggest using RSDlite and the correct SBF file for your bootloader version.
[Droid X General] blockhead42:
I think you misunderstood me. My own phone is getting replaced (screen issue), and I wanted to see if I could make a nandroid now, put it on my computer/sdcard, then load it on my new phone that Verizon sends me.
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
Ah! Then yes that should work. Agfter installing bootstrap you would just need to paste the nandroid folder (using the yyyymmdd-hhmm or whatever the folder title style is) into the /sdcard/clockwordmod/backup folder.

I dont think there should be any problem...but I dont know anyone that has tried this.
[Droid X General] zehkaiser:
I did this to fix a buddy's phone. Made a nandroid of my phone and restored it on his. Just don't rename the folder to something with spaces. He did this and it ended up not working. I replaced the spaces with underscores and it worked fine.
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
Yes this will work. Just make a nandroid before you return it and restore it when you get a new one. However, make sure that you are using the latest software version when you make the backup or you will brick your phone trying to restore it

[Fascinate General] fenix37197:
Kind of strange, I'm using JT's super clean rom and I just bought the dock for my fascinate. It was automatically launching aosp desk clock. I decided to copy over the stock desk cradle app into system and now when I dock the phone, nothing launches. The other issue I'm having is it doesn't force the phone in landscape mode like my old droid dock did and it bothers me because I only want launcherpro to be in landscape when docked. I tried to remove the aosp desk clock thinking maybe you can't have 2 apps handle it but that didn't solve it, also it would have prompt asking which app to launch. I'm not sure how android handles the dock event or what program does, but I would like to figure out how to restore this. I tried using tasker to control orientation settings but it doesn't seem to have enough flexibility to detect which app is in the foreground.
[Fascinate General] DeezNotes:
I also have the dock cradle. I used the stock desk clock for a while, but I hated it.

I settled on using the Alarm Clock app. I didn't have to do anything special to get it to work except making sure the Android News & Weather app was installed. I was never asked which app to launch, but I believe I uninstalled the stock one after a while. I had up to 3 desk clock apps installed at one point while testing them all and I never had an issue.

I only use portrait mode for my launcher (currently Go Launcher, but usually TouchWiz). The Alarm Clock app had no trouble switching from portrait to landscape no matter what my launcher settings were.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/alarm-clock-plusv2★/com.vp.alarmClockPlusDock
[Fascinate General] fenix37197:
Tried it

Tried it, but it still wouldn't work. It's weird, it's suppose to detect when it's docked and launch the default dock app, but nothing launches at all. The home button will bring me to my default launcher, and the orientation as I mentioned won't change. I only installed desk cradle and after that it stopped working completely. I'm trying now to reinstall the aosp clock and remove desk cradle. Hope it at least works with that again.
[Fascinate General] SBC44:
I'm having the exact same problem. Please update the thread if you find a solution.
[Fascinate General] fenix37197:
Sort of fixed

Well, I got it sort of working again. It now goes to the aosp clock and the home button also brings it to it. It doesn't fix my orientation problem so I'm going to learn to deal with allowing rotation in launcherpro. So you need to remove both the deskclock and deskhome from /system/app, then using rom manager flash the aosp deskclock zip from sonofskywalker, then you should have the aosp deskclock working with the dock. I still haven't figured out how to get the stock desk cradle to work, maybe it's the way JT's supercleanrom handles it? It came with aosp stock apps and lockscreen by default, I had to flash back the puzzle lock and other stuff. Wish I knew more about the android operating system and how things really worked...

Hello,

I am planing to install Darkys ROM but first of all I have some questions regarding a way to get my phone as it is now.

If I type *#1234# I get this information:

PDA: I9000XXJPO

PHONE: I9000XXJPP

CSC: I9000DBTJP3

Build Info: 2010. 10

When I bought my SGS it was still 2.1 Eclair but last year I updated it via Kies to 2.2 Froyo. I could not use the 3 buttons so I had to use Odin and a Samsung fix for Canada or something like that. I am not sure but anyway the 3 buttons work now. After that I installed z4root and One Click Lag Fix. That were the only things I used.

Well now I want to install Darkys ROM but I have got some questions first.

How can I make a full 100% backup of my phone?

If something goes wrong with me flashing Darkys ROM I want to be able to restore my phone as it is now.

I have got Titanium Backup is it enough just to make a full backup with it?

After flashing to Darkys ROM can I just use Titanium Backup to get all of my Apps, sms, pictures, vids, settings and so on back?

After I flashed do the 3 buttons still work? Because I used a fix to get them to work and as far as I know wont flashing wipe my phone with the fix for the 3 buttons?

Well that is it for now but I am sure I have a lot more questions... :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seeARMS:
Install a kernel that supports ClockworkMod Recovery and make a nandroid backup; that's a complete system backup.

Yeah, you can use titanium backup to backup + restore all your apps, settings, etc, but it won't be a literal image of the phone.

Flashing any ROM won't take away the 3 buttons. Typically flashing a ROM (sometimes WIPE version) wipes only your /system /data /dbdata /cache, etc folder. Doesn't touch the bootloader, meaning your 3 button download will always work.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaphirX:
@seeARMS thank you for your reply. so basically I have to get another kernel and then I can make a backup. But wont that change my actual phones kernel to another and wouldnt that be problematic if I have to turn in my phone for repairs?

is there a guide out there for this doing this?

@imkr1 I am not 100% sure because I did it out of a whim. But as far as I remember I followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=785201

[Milestone XT720 General] civicvx94:
Since we now have open recovery, what exactly is stopping development? Lack of a dev?

I understand porting rom's might be a pain, but what about deodexing, zip-aligning, and de-bloating a stock rom? I feel that I know enough about the process to complete an update.zip for a cleaned up 2.1, but is it even worth it?

Does anyone have an idea how difficult it would be to port a rom from the original Milestone to the XT? I'm new to Moto (I don't currently own the XT, but have help a friend with his and have access to 2) but is there any risk of bricking from a bad flash or can you simply restore?

I ask this because the Milestone has quite a few ports for it and was wondering if you could swap the boot.img from the XT rom with a Sense port, recompile, and flash for a quick and dirty port. Or do we need a working/stable Froyo rom and boot.img to even begin porting?

I'd love to try something out for this phone since no other dev's seem too interested.
[Milestone XT720 General] civicvx94:
After doing some Googling I found the XT720 has a TI OMAP3440 processor, which is very similiar in specs to the OMAP3430 and the same GPU (PowerVR SGX530) that is included in the Droid/Milestone. The main differences I see between the Droid and the XT is the camera (5 vs 8mp), HDMI, double the RAM, and the lack of a keyboard.

Since they have the same amount of rom memory, screen resolution, and GPU, does anyone think swapping the boot.img would at least get a Droid rom to boot up? Then start development from there?

Edit..

I didn't take into account the kernel, so we would really need a Froyo kernel first also?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] stoolzo:
Hi, I think we need a sticky for this problem as it looks like loads of people are having this problem, some intermittently, some once.

It seems to that this problem is degrading the whole experience of NAND and putting people off, it certainly is for me as the whole rigmarole I have to go through every time I update a ROM is P1ssing me off now.

It appears there are several issues that cause this problem, perhaps it is wise to understand more about what is actually causing it being all roads lead to one outcome, USB init failed.

My experience (XP, so please done tell me to run as admin)

Fix (1)

When I flashed my first ROM I got this problem, the fix seemed to simply by remove the tick in "alllow USB connections" in active sync. Now if that were the only problem here it should have worked perfectly next time - but it didnt, I had the very same problem next time I tried to flash a ROM.

Fix (2)

As removing "allow usb connectiion" was already unticked I thought that this must simply be a USB driver issue connected in some way to the activesync program. I reinstalled activesync from scratch but this didnt work, however I didnt reboot my PC, I rebooted it and all was ok again.

Fix (2/3) Well, so I now had fix 2 and three in place and guess what, the third ROM i tried had the same problem. Something must be corrupting activesync or the USB drivers as I followed fix 2 again and it worked after the reboot.

Fix (2/3/4) Thinking this as simply a reboot issue the next time it failed (on install of 4th ROM) i simply rebooted - but this didnt fix it. I ran fix 2 again and it worked again.

So, for me at least this is purely a problem with activesync and USB drivers and DAF and in fact a few posts suggest using a different installer that DAF.

Do we have a final answer for this problem and if so can we have a sticky on it, less people get put off installing NAND for good.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wolfpack612:
try running this with xp and you shouldn't have a problem. Use ANDR_INSTALL.exe instead of running Install.exe or DAF.exe, it works for me every time:
