ElocityA7 has the option so far in the kernel, to reboot into APX mode, enabling support for full control of the tablet memory.

and in cases where needed, a full partition restore is possible.

it will even be possible to re-partition the device to suit other needs if you wish.

right now im working on a image for full recovery, but as i can only activate using a kernel with support and using a adb connection. any information on the button combo to activate it is appreciated..

otherwise its less usefull in a "bricked" situation, if we cannot start directly in APX mode.

but its confirmed for now, that the system partition is 573MB in size, and i made a full dump of it.

Advent Vega distribution pack is used for binary compatibility on windows to install it for now, but it should work just as good from linux, as Nvidia distributed the same applications for linux.

If you already got the APX setup in place,

the magic "reboot" method is entering this in a shell:

echo 1 >/proc/naz10_diag/force_recovery​

and the device goes into APX mode.

ill update this thread when i know more, or got a key combination to activate directly without use of the shell command. (which is very important too)

you can read more about the APX mode here

[A7 General] Dexter_nlb:
yes, i think this thread started it.. and i do have a full backup, but im not flashing it :-) so if its fully working or not, is waiting for a hardware trick to open APX mode without software.. if its not possible im not testing :-) unless its broken somehow..
[A7 General] 5[Strogino]:
Elementix pointed to hardware trick. But what we can do except full backup/restore?
[A7 General] Dexter_nlb:
sorry, i did

NOT

actually read more than the CODE part :-) LOL

thanks, thats a nice trick, so yes, you can do a lot of magic and still return it to a full state with the toothpick..

so like on Folio AC100, they installed debian linux and ubuntu..

in our case we can at lease play with repartitioning it.. at least resize..

but you can recovery whatever change, as long as it works..

Im still stock, didn't root/unroot and im having gps problem. This is like my 3rd month driving and im still learning the road so i depend on my GPS alot to get me from point A to Z. But last night i was going to a club in downtown miami gps got me there without a problem, i hit search type in the first four digit of my house address, gps already had my location save, click on the address hit driving navi and i was off in the wrong direction. I was pist, gps never failed me like this, so i was like okay let me type in my home address again... lead me in the wrong direction again. Now i know 3 ppl don't have the same address as me maybe they do in another state... but why wouuld my gps not pin point my house like it normally do? when i got home i click on the address i click when i was leaving the club and it locked on...

[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Yea. After you flash clockwork. You can either backup while in rom manger or when your phone is off hold vol down+power then go to recovery. There should be an option backup/restore. Lol note use the track pad to navigate
[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
Once you flash ClockworkMod recovery using ROM Manager, you can also perform the nandroid through ROM Manager, as well. I prefer this because it gives you an opportunity to rename the backup before you create it (instead of getting a seemingly random number sequence). I.e. you could have 'CM7-Feb20' instead of '032301-110235003'

Think of ROM Manager as a GUI for recovery.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Lol yup what he said
[G2 and Desire Z General] ibemad1:
Its not a random number sequence, its the date and time the backup was made.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Daughain:
DL ROM manager from app store, install ROM manager, open ROM manager, press "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"(should be first thing at the top), confirm phone model.

Either reboot into recovery, or scroll down to backup, and proceed to do so.

Have followed this as well. When I try to boot into recovery I get the triangle with red exclamation.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
:confused:I have done all the suggestions as listed above. I have noticed when i boot by holding down the volume and power, At the top of screen it still says s-on.

Shouldnt it be S-off with root?

Im over clocked with set cpu, have superuser permission app and terminal emulator show su, and titanium backup shows root. So have i missed something and that would explain why i cant get into recovery?

HELP????
[G2 and Desire Z General] jark99:
Getting root and s-off from my understanding are 2 different things. Root is its own thing and s-off lets you falsh custom roms..... try going into rom manager and clicking flash clockworkmod.....do it like 2 times. You should be fine
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
Ive done this probably a dozen times. Even uninstalled and re installed. Still shows red triangle if i try to get into recovery
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
ok, The phone does have to have S-off to load a custim recovery. Did that and it now works.

Is there an overclock kernal to flash or something?

You guys have been alot of help.

Thats what i tried to do. I keep getting error cant open sd card ......

then (bad) installation aborted
[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
Sounds like your SDcard got corrupted. Format it in a computer and start fresh. Sucks, but it's happened to all of us at one point or another.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
Ok got everything back and running. I had top find and flash the correct stock kernal. The OC kernal listed soft bricked the phone. It would not boot past the HTC logo. So flashed oem kernal and rerooted.

Is there a correct kernal or means to permanently OC. Now i cant seem to get and OC methods to work.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pmcqueen:
do you need to overclock? did you notice any real-world gains at all from it?

I was running at 1117 for a while, but it made very little (if any) difference in how my phone actually operated. sure, it was cool for bragging rights, but there's no reason to push your clock speeds if it doesn't net you any [noticable] performance gains. I'm back at 800 mhz now and the phone is just as snappy as it was when overclocked. granted, I only run 1 homescreen with google search widget and 3 dock screens using LauncherPro, so if you have a lot of homescreens and apps/widgets everywhere, the OC might make a difference.

I don't think (I could be wrong here) any of the kernels are capable of setting your clock speeds, but they give you the ability, using an app like setcpu, to clock to a certain point (ie the 1.8ghz kernel will let you slide up to 1.8ghz in setcpu). the stock kernel, which I understand you're running now, doesn't allow you to go over 800mhz. are you wanting to keep the stock rom? if not, flashing to a rom like CM7 will give you overclocking capability out of the box... check around in the development forum.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
Yeah i plan on keeping the stock rom for a while. Im rooted and using set cpu. I had it OC to 1.4 before i had the soft brick issue. Did it using g-script method. Cant seem to get it to work now.

Leary on flashing a new rom after this last incident.

[G2 and Desire Z General] pmcqueen:
disregard that post as I don't know what I'm talking about. :)

I didn't own my G2 prior to gfree/rage permaroot so I was unaware of workaround methods. I'm not able to help you with gscript stuff or anything not involving installing an OC kernel.

gscript is something you have to run every time you start your phone.. again, because you are on the stock kernel.

I would highly recommend perma rooting (it sounds like you're temp rooted with visionary?) your phone using the gfree/rage method... then you can flash a custom OC kernel and using the overclock app of your choice you can overclock on reboot, which as far as I can tell is not possible with the gscript method.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mike102871:
I am perm rooted. Didnt use visionary.

Id love to flash an OC kernal on the stock rom. One that is guaranteed to work.

[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
At least the leaked Costco ad said activation required for purchase. The BestBut ad just says that activation is required for WiFi. Since they won't sell it for the $800 advertised price, even with WiFi locked, isn't that false advertising?

I want an $800 Xoom with WiFi locked as advertised.
[Xoom General] drhill:
I love the internet.
[Xoom General] keitht:
I don't see false advertising. The ad specifically says that you must purchase one month of Verizon service to activate WiFi. I don't like it but it doesn't look like false advertising to me.
[Xoom General] varungandhi:
what the **** is wrong with ****ing best buy? i hear ya man. i called best buy to see if i could pre-order my xoom today and i just got told that there is no wi-fi version and there is just one version. i would have to pay $800 plus verizon internet service for one month. this is bull ****.
[Xoom General] keitht:
Couldn't agree more. For an unsubsidized version, this is totally shady. Forcing someone to pay extra just to activate WiFi is ridiculous. Very bad business.
[Xoom General] setite:
It is not false advertising. It is, arguably, tying. Tying is making the purchase of one item(i.e, the XOOM) contigent upon the purchase of another unnecessary item(Verizon Month of Service). It is possibly an anti-trust violation which is nearly impossible to enforce under anti-trust laws.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tying_(commerce)
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
I'm saying, I WANT to buy it WITHOUT WiFi, but I can't! That IS false advertising. If they let me buy it without WiFi and activation, then it would be true to the ad. But I can't do that, I have to buy it with activation, so it's false advertising.
[Xoom General] keitht:
Take it to court. I don't think it is worth the effort but I see your point. I am not sure if they will even allow you to leave the store without activation.
[Xoom General] setite:
I was you when the announcement was first made about the activation a bit ago. I even contacted a friend who is a lawyer. After a little research into anti-trust law I realized that I couldn't win a case, even if there was no WiFi-Only version on the horizon, which there is.

Are you being silly when you say you want to buy it "WITHOUT WiFi" arguing a pont of false advertising. Pretending that you want a 3G version, without service and without activated wifi? Or was it simply a mistake and you meant without 3G. If it's the former, the only reason to want a 3G XOOM WITHOUT WiFi would be to have a case for false advertising. False advertising is rare. As I have stated, it might be "tying", but it is not false advertising.

If you want to make a stink, argue with BB and see if they will let you walk out the door with the tablet with no activation.

EDIT: I am on hold seeing if BB will let me out without activation. I will make the excuse that I'll activate later that day at my leisure.
[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
You forgot your geek squad protection...
[Xoom General] setite:
The chick didn't offer me any of that stuff. I imagine they will give me the spiel on release. I rarely buy warranties on gadgets. 160$ to secure a 800$ device is too much. Insurance is only good if the device is soooo expensive that you couldn't just repurchase it in the instance that something goes wrong, like a multi-thousand dollar car. Though when offered the illusion of cheaper insurance in the form of monthly payments, like the 7$ a month for my EVO, I do fall for it :).

I know you were probably being sarcastic.

I spoke to a girl in the BB Mobile department. They sound pretty insistent that they "can't sell it without a data plan". She made it clear that I could cancel at the end of the month, perhaps she didn't read their in-house playbook. Despite defending the reasons for it, I will admit that I'm mad they are saving me from my self by not allowing me to walk out with it an no data plan. I think if you argue, even if they don't match Costco's price, they might match the 35$ Mail In Rebate so that you only pay 20$.

The problem is that we can't vote with our wallets on the XOOM. Because the problem is not the XOOM. The problem is Best Buy. The problem is the fact that BB has many many loyal customers who pay their MSRP high prices to the tunes of 10s of 1000s yearly. They don't care if some geek, and I am sure I am right in stating that most of us buy from online retailers when it's cheaper, decides not to pay for the XOOM. They will chock it up to the XOOM being a failure, not to their marketing. Despite what you think of Apple, they have created an idea that if a device is desirable enough(i.e., overpriced iOS devices) people will pay through the nose.

Before you flip out. When I say overpriced I am referring to the fact that objectively, the iPad is just a big iPod touch. Subjectively, however, all value is intrinsic and the value of anything is what people will pay for it. If people buy it, it's worth it, if not then it's not. It's just like the reality that precious metals and stones have no real value anthropologically, since our society has moved beyond the use of such things as hard currency. But marketing allows people, primarily women(call me sexist but it's true) to continue to believe that some metal or stone in the ground is worth something still. If I can't buy groceries with a diamond, I think it's useless, but marketing is magic. I am going to buy the XOOM because I have convinced myself I need it. I want a tablet to keep me company on the couch. This superbowl I was looking **** up on my phone, drove me nuts.
[Xoom General] bwcorvus:
Yea i was sarcastic. As for overpriced i agree it is. You can buy a netbook for $200, a cheap laptop for prolly $300, and yet we will pay $699/$799 for a big cell phone that doesn't make calls...WHY??? Because as you say, we have convinced ourselves we need it. Do you know how close i was to buying the samsung tab on multiply times. I keep walking away, its to much, its to much. But now I'm buying something that's more money...figure that out.
[Xoom General] keitht:
You want a device when you are on the couch not necessarily a Xoom. You can't assume this will work for you when you have never touched one. There will be others. If money is not a concern, you are hoping that this device will live up to your expectations and I hope it does for you. But for the rest of us, cost is a huge issue along with an unproven device with no real use reviews.
[Xoom General] setite:
Yea I talked myself out of the Galaxy Tab because of the hardware. It's the same as my EVO, with a bigger screen.
