I tried flashing back to an older rom I used before, but this time it said there was an error and wouldn't work. I tryed doing a restore and that didnt work either. Now when i try to reboot, it just gets stuck on the 3 skateboarders. And when i try to go into recovery it just shows the triangle with an exclamation point, instead of the old menu I used to have. Is it fixable or did I brick it?

I have an eris flashed with PB00IMG and I believe I have root access. I am able to remove apps through terminal. I cannot get the google maps to update. I have removed maps.apk, htcnavi.apk and com.google.android.maps.jar. I have removed these separately and all together. I have been able to get it to update before, but I reflashed the PB00IMG because I could not get youtube videos to play without the stock browser. I got the youtube videos working again but cannot remember how to get the maps to update again. I wanted to try flashing different roms. I have downloaded a couple, placed them on the sdcard, and booted but I cannot get them to boot.

View 6 Replies View RelatedToday the rom bug bit me and I tried about 3 or 4 different roms (after TIbackup and nand backup of course) including xtrROM and ELB, hated them all, and decided to go back to my beloved sense-able 3.1 nand backup.
wiped, restored, and now all my market links are gone. (except for gmaps, for some reason). TIbackup refuses to even install again from the market because the package signature is incorrect, or something. TIb said it was supposed to restore market links.any suggestions? is there even any way to restore a market link besides just reinstalling the program outright? I found this thread http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-hero/81290-market-does-not-see-all-my-downloads-after-nandroid-restore.html as reference. All my programs will show as "installed" if I search them in market.either way, sense-able was definitely the sexiest-out of the box ROM I tried. everything else without sense was just ugh, looked like I'd loaded up a G1. couldn't tell a speed difference at all with the same setCPU profile, and xtrROM was so bad on battery I only made it through few hours before uninstalling. I cannot live with the sense keyboard and search-dialer.
Android Version: 2.2 [Optional]Are You rooted & which Rom: Rooted and flashed to "[ROM] Official 2.2 (HTC 2.09 and 2.10): busybox, A2SD+, TUN, EXT4, Undervolt, SYSRW"
Issue: I've flashed to another ROM and now want to restore my back-up that I made via Clockworkmod. The restore seems to do fine, but when I reboot my phone hangs at the boot screen.
In the meanwhile I have flashed the recovery from clockwork to AmonRa. To restore the clockwork back-up, I boot into clockwork recovery via ROM Manager. Maybe I should reflash to clockwork, but that didn't work till now.
I own an LG Optimus L9 from T-Mobile. A few months ago, I rooted it and installed the Jarvis boot animation, complete with a Jarvis start up sound.
I started having issues with my phone, so I performed a factory reset. However, the boot animation is still the Jarvis one. I need to send the device in for a repair, and I need it back to the original boot animation (one where there was white and pink squares that did a wave animation, along with the T-Mobile jingle.)
Since i now have dual booting on i9100.
I was hoping to automatically backup new sms when recieved, and then when booting - restore any missing sms..? then it would appear seamless when switching between two roms no sms missing

I'm trying to boot up the galaxohero rom,I indeed successfully restore the gapps before, but now, it didn't work anymore. I'm using the recovery 4.2 image and i'm sure i have done everything as the how to odin guide said, but it still couldn't restore the g.apps, the restore was aborted after a few sec. I have even formatted the storage card and start again. For my successful attempt, i use the old methods with a g.apps directory, but now I'm using II5.tar to restore, and it didn't work anymore.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a backup file made with Titanium Backup for GMD GestureControls, but for some reason I'm unable to restore it to the phone! It just hangs with the box saying "restoring" and at 0%. If I try to install it from the APK it just says "App is not installed".
Really frustrating because I've been able to install/restore things flawlessly before and now, what gives with this junk? I've used ADB to push the apk to /system/app but that didn't work either!
I backed up all my apps using Go Backup, so there's now about 500MB worth of files all waiting to be restored. The reason I did the backup was that I was to flash a new ROM, which I did.
However, upon reinstalling Go Backup, I found that it doesn't recognize my backed up files anymore compared to the previous days I used it. Researching about the issue I soon realized that the problem is encountered my numerous people, all of whom losing their files because of Go Backup's inability to recognize files from their last update.
I tried installing Pro and the previous versions, but it wasn't successful.Yes, I can install the apk files one by one, but that would be quite a hassle whenever I'd flash a new ROM.
EDIT: So I tried reinstalling each apk with their corresponding tar files. Turns out there are some that can't be installed, the games. Agent Dash and Subway Surfr apks, for instance, would give me the message: there was a problem parsing the package. I guess I need Go Backup after all.
I used the Helium backup app to backup all my apps before flashing my S3 with the stock ROM. I copied my entire internal memory as it is, and pasted it after flashing. This of course included the crucial 'Carbon' folder with all my backups made my Helium.
BUT now I installed helium and it refuses to detect those backups. In 'Restore and Sync' it simply says "No backups were found on your internal storage".
I backed up my chats in whatsapp. I reinstalled whatsapp. It asks for restore option but when i click restore it takes 4-5 seconds and directly proceed to Set profile picture and profile name. After that there are no messages in whatsapp. I had many important messages.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOk i have not been able to find any answers what so ever regarding the people that can not find the backup/restore option after entering the recovery mode. I have recently rooted using the new z4root application. I get a skull and crossbones supper user app, and was wondering if that means its different than the one with the ninja icon that everyone else gets.
Anyways, When i go to make a nandroid back up, i follow the steps to the letter, but when i get to the recovery menu, my options stop after the wipe baseband data option. there is absolutely nothing else there that says anything about backup/restore option everyone seems to be screaming about. Its not there!
Now please can someone figure out a solution to this problem?
My recovery looks like as follows: Android system recovery <3e>
Use d-pad to highlight: center to select.
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
wipe baseband data
if i do a nandroid back up, and then get a refurb eris, can i restore that backup to the new phone?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am currently trying to flash my new Sanei n10 tablet with CM10 and it is proving much more difficult than I first imagined.
My main problem seems to be that the device just does not want to boot in CWM. I have installed the latest version of CWM (found here) via the Terminal Emulator but it doesn't boot into CWM Recovery, but rather just boots normally. I have also tried using the hard keys to boot into it but all that does is boot me into the default android system recovery (3e) which is useless as it will only update from verified roms.
The device is rooted and I have ROM Manager installed. I have given Terminal Emulator superuser permissions... It just doesn't seem to want to boot into CWM Recovery. I have tried using both ROM Manager as well as NOVO7 Tools to boot into it but I get the same results (device just reboots normally)
I think that it might be something to do with the stock ICS 4.0.4 that came with the device.that is causing me so much hastle.
I'm having trouble booting my LG Optimus G into recovery mode. I've rooted the phone and installed ClockworkMod recovery. When I try to boot into recovery, either from the ROMmanager app or by holding Volume Up and Power, it comes up with the LG logo and gives this error: Secure Booting Error! Cause: boot certification verify. It just stays like that until I press and hold the power button again until the phone shuts off entirely. Then I'm able to boot into the stock operating system and the phone works fine, but I can never get it to boot into recovery.
The error I mentioned above seems to be a well documented error on the internet, but it seems like other people that are having the trouble are completely bricking their phones. Mine is able to come out of it. All the solutions I'm finding pertain to a phone that's completely bricked and involve taking the phone back to stock. My phone works fine with the stock ROM, but I'd like to play with some custom ROM's.
i'm having trouble to boot my desire S..i tried to install some new roms, but something web wrong: usualy i had the following partitions:
/dev/block/mmmblck0p25 -> cache
/dev/block/mmmblck0p26 -> system
/dev/block/mmmblck0p27 -> data
al of them ext3, but now if i log in with adb i'm able to mount anoteher partition /dev/block/mmmblck0p28 -> witch in some point was montend on /system/lib and is ext4
now if i adb shell: parted /dev/block/mmcblck0 i becom the error: Can't have a partition outside the disk.my asumtion is that some rom flashing wrote somting were it shoudn't. if i format using fastboot, (i'm not sure if this is posible www_ omappedia.com/wiki/Android_eMMC_Booting ) i'm preaty sure i'm formating also x-load and bootloader.
I am triying to use PutYourBootHereWithAudio like before and it runs through all the steps fine but the phone reboots with the old (or new) htc startup still...I downloaded htc sync before hand as that is what worked for me in the past, anyone else get this?
View 22 Replies View RelatedI have tried holding down the volume buttons and power button several times the past three days and nothing. The device vibrates and nothing happens. If I continue to hold the buttons then it vibrates every 6-7 seconds. I also tried to get into fastboot using a toolkit in our development section with no luck. The toolkit says I'm in fastboot when connected, but nothing is on my screen.
At this point I am at a complete loss. If I can't get it to work is that a valid reason for replacement by Google?
I am using Karbonn a111, I have rooted it and then i was trying to flash CWM recovery uning mobile uncle tool. but its was not able to do this , every time it booted into stock recovery.
Then i tried to flash "CWM5.0.2.8recovery " using fastboot. After that my phone stopped to boot into recovery mode. Even my phone is not allowing to do phone reset in phone setting. How to rectify it and how to install CWM recovery.
After unlocking my phone's bootloader and flashing the kernel:
When I power off the phone, it gets into a state where I cannot control it by itself (black screen, no charging light if connected to a power source, does not react in any way to any key).
However, I am able to access it via adb over USB. Using adb, I can put it into some other state (reboot, reboot bootloader, etc) and again gain control over it (also through its own keys). When I select the "power off" function of the bootloader, it enters this state again.
I can even reboot the phone (also into recovery/bootloader/fastboot) from any state
So I can use the phone, but I can't power it on by itself, which isn't a good situation when I don't have a computer around.
device: HTC One S
ROM: CyanogenMod 10 (device is officially supported by CM10; I used the version I found in the Wiki.)
kernel: The one included in CM10 (had to be flashed manually via fastboot because of restrictions by the device; I flashed the kernel before flashing the ROM)
I am looking to compile a new kernel for this device. I have pulled off the boot.img file from /dev/block/nandc and used split_bootimg.pl to pull apart the kernel and the boot ramdisk. I have used extract-ikconfig to get the kernel config and built my new 3.4 kernel (with modules). So far so good...
I have tried to build the new boot.img file with no avail. My concern is with the original kernel as the new one should be build the same (I think). It looks like it is not compressed as I run the command
file boot.img-kernel
It returns
boot.img-kernel: data
So it is not a Linux kernel ARM boot executable zImage
Is this correct? Can Android boot with this or is the split_bootimg.pl tool not creating the file correctly (it does pull the ramdisk as I have uncompressed it fine! and the file does contain the kernel config)
Ok So assuming I can create a proper boot.img with my built zImage and the old ramdisk, what do I need to do with the modules? Do I update the boot.img on the tablet and copy the modules over to the existing /system/lib/modules? (this appears to not work)
Today my phone started continuously re-booting itself. Only gets to the HTC screen and then re-boots. I have done multiple battery pulls with no results. I cannot boot into recovery either, tried that many times as well. My only option is a screen that I have not seen before that asks if I want to clear all data and then reset the device.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a Nexus one and I have made a bit of a mess of it when loading a custom rom. Previously I'd rooted (without unlocking) the stock (2.2) rom before loading Cyanogen 6, later Cyanogen nightlies and finally eViL-NXSense-v1213. I was rather enjoying the last one but had severe stability issues which I think was due to using Titanium Backup and restoring data. I was in the process of re-imaging to eViL-NXSense-v1213 after clearing the SD card, data and various caches when something seemed to happen to the recovery image. I can get into the boot loader but if I select Recovery it shows the Nexus One logo indefinitely and doesn't respond to the power button being pressed, the same happens if I turn it on from cold.
Is it possible that the recovery image has somehow been corrupted? If so what can I do to restore a recovery image that will enable me to install a custom rom. I would prefer not to unlock the boot loader but will do it if necessary.
i have problem with my Novo 7 Paladin. One week ago i installed Google Maps update. After that my tablet was very strange. Sometimes when it go to sleep it won't wake up. I had to press power on again. Later that week there was some graphical glitch on screen (blinking colors). And now i can't boot at all. So i tried the SD card method to recover system. The problem is that i can't boot. Combination of keys like VOL+ and POWER or VOL+ and RESET doesn't work. Then i tried the original USB Boot Tool from Ainol. This tool doesn't work either.
USB Boot Tool
1) install correct USB drivers (press VOL+ and plug USB) select drivers from tool/drivers/4770
2) unplug USB and start USBBootTool.exe
3) press VOL- and plug USB
4) it says BOOT... please waite0% (attachment boottool.JPG)
5) after some time of waiting the error apears (attachment boottool2.JPG)
