ROM Backup - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

Hi,
I just backed up the rom to my SD, and wiped all the info i had on it, i didn't realise that this would happen. I followed the instructions on http://xda-developers.com/XDArit/ and missed anythign that might have said that. Others might make a similar mistake?
Also, do i really need a SD reader for my computer, can i not just access the img through explorer when the xda is hooked up via USB?
The latter (or even both) may be easily explained away due to my ignorance but ce sera.
cheers
ant

wipe out
Yes, I just did that, annoying isn't it, especially as I still haven.t managed to load the new rom!

Hi there - it looks to me like the files are "unopenable" from mobile device via active sync explorer - bit of a pain but I got a really good reader for about 20 quid with 6 different slots for different memory cards.

Root problem

Hey guys.. after like 2 months i still havent figured out what to do after following thousands of guides..
I've tried rooting my hero but it stucks on downloading .boot.img = FAILED (remote:no access) or sth like that.. i have followed every step in like 20+ guides?and i always get the same error no matter what i do.. also the one-click flash rooting fails because from what i've been told i have an updated kernel (or how its called) version and it is fixed :/
any info u might want i am open to tell you (like my kernel version etc) i just dont know what u need to "solve" my problem ;d just ask!
i just want to root it so i can have apps on my sd, bluetooth and nothing else

thx A LOT for the replies! one of the few i got so far in multiple forums..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543571 this is the guide i had followed and it failed ;/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559613 i have a newer version of hero and i've been told that the flashrec is patched on mine ;/ is it possible or? i couldnt do the guide (some options werent there atleast)
bump
so i somehow managed to downgrade my hero, flash it through recovery and i can access the new menu from home + power button but it still says am not rooted... any ideas?:/
You have achieved major hurdles.
To get root you have to flash rooted rom like Mocado's. I have v2.8 which I think has everything I wanted. You can have your own choice>>>
http://www.thei.tguy.co.uk/hero/Older 'Updates'/
if i flash a rom do i loose my messages/contacts if i DONT backup?also can i partition my SD without rooting? and i have already tried Amon Ra with better terminal emulator but it fails ;d btw if possible try pm me
f--k this-.-
after all the good progress i've had..
i managed to root it, partition my SD and when i tried to move my apps it, midway, it asked me to restart my device..so i did.. and now all my apps are gone, factory reset has been made, contacts are lost, messages are lost..almost EVERYTHING is lost apart from application shortucts-.- :S i have made a backup but i dont know how to use it (lol-.-) pls reply
freaking p----ed...
sry for all the bumpness.. really in need of help
whenever i try to fastboot it says not allowed..and am about to cry..
stupid nandroid backup cant get it to work! pls help!
You flashed Amons recovery... With it you can format and partition sd card, and flash rom of your choice.
Yes you loose everything when flashing rom. You could have copied your contact on sim or sd, same for applications. You can reinstall but a word of advice,
Do your wipes first, I mean to ensure smooth running of rom. Hope it helps.
And when not sure please read, read and read, we are all here to help one another. Regards.
how can i do a backup for my contacts and messages? i have the .img files ;/
when i fastboot it says remote: not allow
also htc sync doesnt work now
and when i restore from recovery boot it says nandroid mobile sh failed run via console ;/
No dont flash .img.
Re- restoring contacts, I dont know any easy way but all your sim contacts can be copied. All phone contacts will have been wiped ,that swhat happenes when we install new os.
i thought it was the other way around and i copied everything on my mobile.. lol..
anw doesnt matter ;d just had 40 contacts anw ;d
can i restore messages, application saves and application folders at least? btw my phone aint working on htc sync now ROMS are still on btw
and how can i correctly partition my SD so any application i add it is saved on SD?thx ;d
Just one thing. Refrain from using foul languages as this forum is open to all ages of members and it will also reflect bad on you.
Install something like Astro, open it ,click menu and go from there to back up all your installed apps.
yeah sry forgot :/
will edit it right away
also thats what i mean, all my apps and their saves/settings are on backup.imgs :/ my hero is like a brand new one with modaco installed and nothing else... and htc sync doesnt load it, although i can use mass storage
Back up images are actually of rom itself. Sorry I dont know how to reinstate sms messages. This questiones was asked by a friend about his iPhone and again I couldnt answer as I never owned iPhone.
Anybody out there to answer question raised in above post?
meh doesnt matter i guess
i'll just "rebuild" it from scratch ;/
just wanna know what to do now so i get a partition on my SD.. i have a 2gb card which was partitioned before but i restored it.. i want 2 things
1) howto partition it for automatic saving apps on SD! and not having to move them everytime
2) how to make HTC sync works -.- i think i "broke" it:S i reinstalled it 4 times so far..nothing..
1) Format and partition feature s in your recovery. Format the whole card as fat32 and next make partition but again you will loose everything on card! After that you will need to mount your sd card ( option in recovery) so that you can put copy back everything on it. But why do you want to do it if everything is working?
2) Do you see ADB in system properties? If yes, drivers are installed correctly.
It is worth browsing Dream forums as Dream was first Android phone hence more to read and almost all can be related to Magic and Hero units operational practices except rooting and flashing bits.
one last thing man
atm i am looking for another application to connect to my hero to install other apks :/ currently i have apps2sd on hero although and i was wondering if all i have to do is Copy apps to SD and thats all? (whats dalvik cache that asks me to copy btw?)
i asked about formating and partitioning cause i am getting an 8gb in a few days and i was wondering if i should do it like that
and no i cant see ADB in system properties ;o how can i install the drivers ;/
1) i've read that modaco doesnt work with HTC sync anymore sometimes.. so i was wondering if there is anyway i can install apk without htc sync?
(tried with adb had 2 different errors)
2)is there anyway to like load 2-3 roms and swap between them without loosing anything? (if yes, how)
thx
edit: i reinstall htc sync and my drivers are gone! cant get them back..my pc doesnt even load APK files! :S

[Q] Is there a way to recover deleted files?

Just realized I accidentally deleted a picture from the SD card on my Hero awhile ago. The card is quite big and has never been close to being full so I'm wondering if there is a deleted folder on the card or some way to recover the file?
As far as I know, only recovery programs as used by the police, government etc can recover deleted files. You can download loads off the internet, but they are designed to reconstruct the magnetic residue on hard discs, don't know if it will work on a flash drive. Won't hurt to try though.

This person doesnt appear to know what they are talking about, no offense.
Data recovery is possible (in theory) on all types of media. When a file is deleted, the space it occupied is marked as unused by the system. The file isn't actually "deleted" until something else has written over its space.
however, due to the random nature of writes to the disk, and given that you said "while" I presume there will have been many writes to the disk since, the chances of recovering the file fully are reduced.
recovery software: a good free one is http://www.piriform.com/recuva
http://www.easeus.com/datarecoverywizard/free-data-recovery-software.htm
Is a good piece commercial software, but the free 1gb trial should be enough to give it a try.
"reconstructing magnetic residue" is what "professional" data recovery companies might attempt I guess. sounds a little fishy to me though.
So you say I don't know what im talking about with recovery programs and the like, then point the op to 2 recovery programs. Recovery programs which, no doubt, will try to reconstruct the files from the left over magnetism of the old file.
Incidentally, I know when a file is "deleted" the memory sectors are merely market as unused, so new data can be written there, but still the only way of recovering them files is with a recovery program.
use "testdisk"
http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
Actually there is no such folder exist on card which kept the deleted files or etc but don't worry just try a good third party data recovery software for the recovery of your data and files. Try Kernel for FAT and NTFS data recovery software for the recovery of your files.

Yes, You DON'T Know. And since you don' know please, don't give anyone "information". Police recovery software... BUNKO! we use the plain old software everyone else uses and there is no recovery of "left over magnetism" shXt ... Go play in your sandbox after mom changes your diaper, and let the adults do the helping here.
A good way to recover deleted files from HTC Hero android phone is to use HTC android data recovery program, here's a good one: HTC Android phone data recovery
The data recovery program recovers data from both HTC Hero phone internal memory and SD card. Recommend that you try it.

Check my post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652411
I have used suggestions from Atrix thread and they worked fine. I have tried two or three times and each time I got some issues. I was copying stock 2.3.4 ROM onto SD card. One time USB ports were not working - no charging, no connection to computer with the cable. Next time there was problem with Play Market. I have tried different steps to reset its settings to no avail. It was giving error related to storage unavailability while downloading anything. I have removed Play Market completely, then somehow install it back, but the issue was not resolved. Now I think maybe it's a permissions issue.
Also device was really slow while running OS on sd-card (I have 32GB Transcend Class 10). It's fun to try but I don't see any practical use for it.

hey can you write a detailed guide with instructions on how you got dual boot working on photon 4g please !? I cant afford to make mistakes and bork my phone >.>
And like you said as long as i can charge my phone and connect to my computer with one of the operating system its not a problem. But having dual boot will be really helpfull means I can check out more than one Rom simultaneously.

The instructions I followed from Atrix page are very detailed. Link is here
It takes time to have a thread where most of the common questions answered. I think it is useless effort to start similar topic here, in addition - I don't have necessary time, knowledge and wish for this.
Anyway, if you do something wrong - you should always have full backup - then you risk nothing. Remember that if you got soft-bricked and recovery doesn't work, you can always use RSD lite to load stock 198_7 ROM, unlock, write new recovery and restore from initial backup.
The only difference between Atrix and Photon, (relative to this task) that you should keep in mind is the partition sizes. Partition table by LAKSHMAN in Play Market (or any other partition tool) can show you your partition sizes. I didn't guess to use these tools when I followed the instructions. Add up some 10 GB to each partition, just in case. When you partition your SD card, you should create partitions of the following size:
system - 420 MiB (stock ROM system partition size 408 MiB)
cache - 645 MiB (my current cache size on stock ROM is 610 MiB)
data - 2.6 MiB
I would also recommend to use script manager to launch scripts that will replace boot image from one to another. In other words, it will control where you will boot next time.
Note that Windows 7 is going mad about SD card with several partitions - sometimes you can see a single ntfs partition, sometimes it shows the ext3 partition, offering to reformat it.

no im sure he miss typed he meant MB like he says in his post in the other thread. ok thanks man ill play around with it a bit so you're sure the phone wont be hard bricked right? I'm a very careful person I'm pretty confident I wont make mistakes all i want to know is everything every instruction given there is detailed enough and that nothing is omitted from it(meaning i dont have to do anything different except the partition sizes you mentioned here)

Yes, everything else from that topic applies. Be careful when you use dd. If you specify wrong drive names you might be in trouble (this will require loading sbf with RSD lite to fix partitions, I guess).
The longest part is to extract boot.img, edit the configuration file there and pack the whole thing back to andorid .img format. It requires you to install Android SDK with some tools that might not work straight away.

[Q] Delete Internal Storage Partitions

I am a noob and I am not a developer or even really great at programming or PC's in general.
I've managed to mess up my phone and have been looking all over the web for how to fix it and I am at a loss.
I decided to register and ask for help. Please be patient and understanding if I ask a lot of questions or don't understand things you accept as basic, understood or common. I looked through existing threads for help and couldn't find the answer I needed. Many thanks in advance for the help. Readers digest of the issue below.
Samsung Galaxy S 4G. T-Mobile. T959V5B5-Custom.
I tried the non-mandatory firmware update from T-mobile and it wrecked the functionality of my phone. I tried to go back with a couple new Rom versions and think I more or less ended up with three roms installed on my internal storage which has given me basically no space which was never an issue for me before. I have used a disk viewer to verify there is unmounted data that is taking up space but I can't figure out how to get to it through the phone or my pc to delete it. I assume if I do this that the empty space will be absorbed and fix the internal storage issue.
Again, thank you for taking the time to read and respond. I love my phone and just want it working right again.

The course of action I would recommend at this point is using a tool called Odin to re-flash the stock ROM to your phone. I would recommend taking a look at this guide for the step-by-step procedure on how to do this. Let me know if you still have questions .

Hey! Big thanks for the reply. Here come the questions...
I used Odin to put the other OS versions on the phone so I am familiar with the software though its been several months. I also still have the ROM that I flashed to phone. I am curious though that if it didn't wipe the previous partitions last time, what would keep it from doing the same thing this time and really messing me up? Or did I click or not click something in Odin or use the wrong option and doing it differently this time would fix the problem?
I located the files on the phone and have verified they are not mounted and looked at their size using DiskInfo. They are located at "/dev/block". Do you know what this is or why they are there? I can delete them using ES File Explorer with SuperUser. Is it ok to delete these and would I get the benefit of increased storage by doing so? I played around with moving them to the SD card and didn't see an increase in my internal storage but was afraid that a reboot after doing to might be bad.
Can you tell I am a little gun shy?
Here are the names of the files, the set starting with t starts at 0 and goes to 12 and the other 1 to 12.

Using Odin to re-flash the stock ROM will automatically setup the right configuration for. Do Not delete the files in /dev/block these are critical to the phones operation and part of the phones normal partitioning and operation as previously stated deleting these will cause a lot of problems if you delete them. If you really want to free up some internal storage space I would recommend deleting the carrier pre-installed bloatware, before you delete any bloatware makesure to backup the apps you deleted with Titanium Backup or a similar backup or flash Clockworkmod Recovery or Team Win Recovery Project and make a Nandroid Backup which is a complete backup of your phone. And don't worry about being gun shy we are all beginners at some point the only real way to become an expert if practice, practice, practice .
So I am working on the Heimdall One-Click.
Handshaking with loke, got no response. FML.
Help.
Edited: Apparently a low battery is not your friend...
after a little reading around on the net I tried a different one and BAM.
Back to stock. We'll see how this goes.
Being rooted with superuser had me spoiled...so much bloatware.

Help please! Images not working

Hello,
Ive recently been having a really annoying flaw with my system, i'm still unable to identify if my phone has caught some form of a virus or if theres something thats changed and not allowing my phone to function correctly.
Please be patient as i have a bit to explain in order to give you guys the full picture of my problem so that it can hopefully be fixed.
Ok so initially everything was working fine and there was no problems. I personally believe but i may be wrong the problem started when i downloaded ttorrent pro apk via a google link and inadvertently provided the installed app with much more access to my phone that was required. Having realized that the app was incorrect i immediately removed it from my phone using titanium backup. i also removed all data and cache at the same time.
So i took some photos whilst on my cousins stag in Barcelona a short time ago and the images were taken whilst i was on 4.2.1, but once i came home and collaborated my photo's and videos with a couple from the stag (they were using the s4) the images became corrupt. I had a full backup of these images on my Mac and they are all ok and can be viewed with no difficulty. The problem arises when i put the folder back onto my android device. Since i have tried a few method to fix this issue but to no avail. All virus check on both the phone and the folder of photos on my mac came back all clear.
The photo's are stored on my External SD Card which is brand new and seems to work fine. This Ex SD Card is not the same as the one i used on the stag(it broke and i purchased a new one since). I often found sometimes that the folder names were changing aswell in the External SD Card, for example i would import 7 folders which all contained images. after a short while, 3 of them would corrupt and the folder name would change to eg. ulbum. With the u being the u from utorrent.
The thing is the images are there to be seen in my files on the android but with no thumbnail and the images do not load. But some of the images in the same folder to seem to work. Ive tried using alternative galleries to see if this fixes the issue but it didnt seem to work. It really frustrating as ive tried so many method and got so many people involved.
Please provide me with some further suggestions because i cant seem to find anyone with the exact same problem.
Thank You in advance
Factory reset, format your SD card (with SD tool) and try again - without transferring anything from your PC. If everything works at that point then probably a virus or SD corruption.
If still the same then flash a fresh stock ROM with Odin, don't use the SD initally to prove the hardware isn't faulty.
Also check your phone bill, warez has a habit of dialling premium rate lines in China for days on end. Never install anything to found on google, if you can't find it on XDA then it probably isn't legit.

Thank You for your quick response. I've done a factory since the problem, flashing back an omega rom on my device. The problem still continued. The photo's can be viewed fine on my Mac...it seems to happen when i move them over to my phone as shown in the pictures in the top post.
I've run a scan on the images on my Mac and it came back all clear. Originally this whole corruption was apparent with one main folder which was of a stag do last month. Since my most recent attempt a further folder is no longer working. This was a album taken over a year ago on my iphone. The videos however from my album last month have started worked :S
This is all abit strange as ive taken a set of photos with the camera app and they dont seem to become corrupt. But ive put the images on a friends SD Card and put that in my phone and it seems to happen to that album aswell. Is there a further internal root which may have become infected and making this happen by targeting certain pic's/albums in my gallery.
My friend is adamant the photo's have become corrupt but they work perfectly on my MAC.
Ive formatted this SD Card on atleast 10 different occassions aswell.
If your phone was rooted then yes, system partition can be changed by virus. Flash a stock ROM with Odin and format the SD.

I agree with your friend. Your pictures must be corrupted or the filesystem on your external SDCard is corrupted too.
Try to copy all your files into a safe place (your Mac HDD) and verify that all files are done.
After, format this ExtSDCard (with the phone for example) et refill the SDCard. Check if I solve the problem.

Ok i may need to give this i try, once ive flashed the stock rom back on can i then flash back the omega rom that i was using or shall i stick with the stock rom to test it out??
