you mean you installed ApeX 5.2 and without restoring your apps + data with TiBU camera wasnt working for you? I have heard this problem before and everytime it was restoring apps+data using TiBU that was causing issue.. or let me know if you have deleted email.apk?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Does the same thing happen if another backup app is used? I've used My Backup Root since I started flashing, and I've never experienced anything look that(and I ran Apex 5.1 for about a week before going to Continuum v4).

[Nook Color General] bdpna:
Stupid question here probably.

If I set up an SD card with honeycomb's image, then install some apps on it, get google working, market working, root installed, etc, is that card going to just plug and play and work in another nook with all the config and apps, or does some of that stuff get stored on the emmc anyway when I boot from SD?

Ideally, all settings are running off SD so any config I do would be identical in another nook, but I'm not sure if, even if running off SD, some stuff happens on the emmc once I boot in.
[Nook Color General] Thirtybird:
it all goes to the SD card unless you intentionally try to write to the EMCC. If you want to verify this yourself, pop out the SD card and boot the nook, you won't find any trace of HC there
[Nook Color General] bdpna:
Thanks, that was my concern...That some sort of settings or apps or root or anything else I did might go to EMMC, but if it all goes to the card, that's perfect -- I want to set up a card for a pal but don't have his nook, if I can test in my nook then send the card and he's good to go, that's ideal.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjhudson101:
Hello all,

Yesterday I spent some time attempting to root my EVO using autoroot.

Halfway through the process the script timed out (cmd window dissapeared) and my phone was left with a red exclamation point. After a few attempts to pick back up where the process left off (running autoroot again) the phone was unable to be seen by USB. At this point I decided to reinstall from the RUU and started over.

When the RUU was finished the phone came up just fine like a brand new EVO, but now the phone will reboot after being up for about 1 minute after sense finishes loading. The phone cannot be seen by USB with charge only and debugging enabled. The phone will charge, but that's about it. No icons on the notification bar for charge only or USB debug.

I've tried reinstalling from zip and exe RUU multiple times, but no change. Phone keeps rebooting 1 minute after everything loads up.

Any help would be appreciated. I feel like something is not getting cleared by the RUU, but I have no idea what to do at this point. Without the ability to use adb I can't figure out a way to make any progress.

Thanks!

--Chris
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
So this is happening after completely restoring with RUU and also with a PC36IMG? Just reboots, and usb isn't working? Have you tried different RUU's or a different PC36IMG, just to be sure? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=884060&highlight=hboot-0.97+ruu. Maybe you could try removing and reinstalling your sd card? I believe I've seen before where something being corrupted on the sd card could cause reboots, or issues installing an RUU or PC36IMG. Is your bootloader currently showing ship S on or ship S off? (just in case you need to take it to sprint, you want to be s off) I don't believe I've ever seen a similar situation, where it reboots consistenly after a minute of running right after running an RUU or PC36IMG, so I'm not sure on what the actual problem is or how you'd go about fixing it. Thats what PC36IMG or RUU are for, last resort to save your behind, but that is failing on you...:eek:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjhudson101:
The md5 for the RUU exe in the link you provided does not match the MD5 for the RUU exe I was using. They are named with the same versions...

I will download the 3.70 RUU exe you linked to and then post with the results. I'm going to attempt the RUU with no SD card inserted to verify that it's not related to my issue.

Thanks for your response!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
You're welcome, I just hope that you're able to resolve the situation. That is kind of an odd one. Hope the new RUU works for you.

Try using Root Explorer, navigate to the directory, mount as r/w (button at top), delete, then hit the r/o button. There's a much longer command-line version, but if you don't figure it out from the above, this is easier and fool-proof.

Just being su doesn't override a read-only filesystem.

Is there some kind of problem with my sim?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
EFS file may change after flashing a rom enough posts on here about it .

Rule one of flashing is to backup your efs folder .

Copy backed up efs to phone to fix

Probable fix as you have flashed custom roms is to use Odin and flash stock rom that may fix your efs .

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsHegger:
Stock rom doesn't fix the efs. There is a guy at samdroid.net who can restore Spica's imei, maybe you should ask him if he is able to do it with your phone. Check out this url: http://forum.samdroid.net/f28/complete-imei-restore-how-1817/

I think this was the only phone i was really looking forward too... but now I may have to reconsider after todays news..

The "stealth" looks ok but I dont want another phone with hard keys ( coming from X)

Then there is the Bionic... lol yeah right unless moto goes the route of the Xoom or there is a breakthough in bypassing by then.

Same with the Galaxy 2, Gonna be gsm at first...

I was really hoping the Thunderbolt would be released this month. I guess ill be holding off for the Bionic now to see how they compare...i really like the webtop app and hope that Motorolas statement about it being included in all high end smartphones includes the bionic.

Does anyone know how the modified blur on the bionic compares to the standard blur?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] animez:
Every review I've read says that the webtop is slow and frustrating with the Atrix. The Bionic is suppose to have half the ram, doubt it will be included at all or we would have heard about it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rednoved:
I almost made a thread like this. I have been considering exploring other options since the Thunderbolt release didn't go as expected. The Thunderbolt seems like an almost perfect device, but may have some flaws or setbacks. Possible issues with battery, 4G, Skype, and no Netflix. Granted, I don't believe they ever said it would have Netflix, but it would have been nice. And an HDMI port! I still can't get over that one. Why would you not put one on there, every other powerhouse phone has one.

Some other similar phones coming to Verizon to consider would be the Droid Bionic, LG Revolution, and the Samsung 4G phone.

Here is a video comparing the 4 phones. I think the guy may have some of his specs mixed up, but it is a good side by side.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2027727:
But the thing is just the wait for all these other phones is gonna be that much longer. I doubt another one will be out the gate before TB because it's already been advertised as our first. Don't get me wrong, I'll love HTC and Android forever, but the wait is just making me want to jump ship to the Palm Pre 2. Laugh all you want, but it's pretty much the next option for me from what's currently available.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chimpsnest:
Is MotoBlur the Moto desktop/launcher on phones? My BF has the DroidPro and when I mess around w/his phone I don't notice anything really different about how it operates - but I think I remember reading someplace that the Pro doesn't have Blur.

If it is a desktop/launcher, can't folks just replace it w/LPro or ADW or something?

I must be way off on what Blur actually is? (and I'm running late and too lazy to search at the moment, lol).
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rednoved:
It's not that the other phones will be released before the TB, it's that they will be released not long after now. Since the release dates are now pretty close to each other, would it be worth it to wait for a different phone?

The LG Revolution should be Q2 the last I heard. It has a 4.3" screen, HDMI out, and should have Netflix out of the box. It will also be the first voLTE to Verizon, making it as some people call it, a "true" 4G phone.

While the phone does has a front facing camera, the back camera is only a 5MP and single LED flash. No kickstand. Since it is an LG, it will lack a good interface like Sense, or even Motoblur. LG normally builds quality phones though.

As for leaving VZW i did that and got a galaxy s 4g on tmobile. i loved the price, and the speed when near a 4g tower.. however i still recieved dropped calls.. (the onle smart phone that did that to me on vzw was the iphone) and the 4g coverage is horrible and the speed is erratic in good coverage areas..

I had a falling apart droid 1 that I bought on launch day and needed something new I ended up getting a droid x off ebay and loading a custom rom and done.. now i feel i have plenty of time to wait out a decent lte phone... most of the other lte phones on vzw are scheduled to launch in second QTR so really the next 3 months...

I am going to wait for a little bit now...

I still have my D1 rooted, overclocked, customized, etc. But the thing is so outdated it lags with all the crap I have loaded on it. This puts me in a crappy situation because my contract has been up since january. I was waiting on this as my next phone. If I could find a cheap phone (aka under $50 D2, Dinc or DX), I would use that for the time being for the next few months. I just almost feel like I'm wasting time because I could have started the 2 year countdown for another phone by now.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksizzle9:
red, i played with the atrix today, and while BLUR still blows nutt juice that phone had a sex like screen if you will and blur ran buttery smooth compared to the droid x or 2, it never studdered or got choked up and although quadrant doesnt tell you much, i watched the 3d test and the FPS where off the freakin charts sometimes i saw well over 100 and it maintained a constant 60+ easily, given this phone had absolutely no apps running or even installed other than att ****ware. i was truly impressed and downloaded a couple of games while i played with it, the tegra really shines on graphic intensive stuff, i also played with the docking unit and while ive read production units dont have multi touch the display did and i must say that it was impressive. first time i have been impressed with moto that much since november of 09 with the droid 1. Hopefully when we get some rock solid info on the bionic it will have the 1gb of ram and not 512, in talking to some knowledgeable peeps about they seem to think that this could be possible since it will be basically the same as the atrix and they seemed to think that the 512mb of ram was a misprint or just a wrong quote entirely, if so, i may say **** it and go with the locked bootloader just to have such a kick ass phone. the camera was either really impressive or the screen just made it look that good, all around i would say that the the atrix is currently the most dominant phone in the android world. galxy s2 looks nice but ive already fell for that once with the fascinate(btw is still eclair in stock for FYI) but still uses the over saturated SAMOLED with the same resolution something like 800x480 and that is getting to be old news especially after playing with atrix today, if you lose hope on the bolt, the bionic will def be a winner in my book bootloader and all. screw it................well maybe not with the bootloader, depends whether i get a semi when i play with it or not the first time.

Yeah the 512 ram on the Bionic is a turn off. I thought it was supposed to have 1gb, but motorolas website says 512. It seems like most of verizons phones always fall short of the other networks counterparts. Even my HTC Touch Pro had less ram than all the other Touch Pros on every network.

yeah.. that is what i did ... except I went to the droidX so that I could get familiar with the 4.3inch size... I am very happy with this ... I have it rooted and am running the fission rom which is fast and stable. I came from a droid 1 that i purchased on launch day ... and it was starting to fall apart.. (no more sliders for me).... although I like the samsung galaxy s 4g i was concerned it did not have a message indicator light. I also stopped by an att store and played with an atrix and it was pretty sweet for the few minutes i spent with it...

either way it does look like another 3 months before we have any real phones from vzw ... I still think they are delaying these phones until they have there new lte pricing laid out... I don't think for a minute they will have unlimited lte on anything.
