When I installed fission I made a back up and I want to go back to ir can some one tell me how. I had the instructions bookmarked but now I cant find it.
Go to the teamdefuse dot com and on the right side of the navigation pain where is say's fission. Mouse over and the instructions are on there. ( If those are the ones you used)?
These are the instructions on the fission website. idk if these are it or not???
But what / how did you back it up.
By what i mean, what program, Also sorry for no direct link. Due to post limit, i cannot post links yet haha.
You go into bootstrap and go to backup and restore or something like that, then choose restore, find your restoration and flash it.
Thanks
I restored it thanks for the help. I think Im gonna wait to change roms again untill they come out with a few more.

Anybody could post an update.zip stock rom, please?
I got my gtab stuck on apx (like tccrews had it) and I need an stock rom update.zip to apply a fix that I found posted here.
Thanks in advance.
Here you go, there's a link to 3588 in this post:
EDIT: Correct me if I'm wrong but if it's stuck in APX mode wouldn't you have to use NVFLASH to get it back to stock? If so then just follow the directions in the post listed below to NVFLASH your G-Tablet back to stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950.
More specifically here is the exact link to the download:
http://tapntap.http.internapcdn.net/tapntap/viewsonic/update-smb_a1002-3588-user.zip.
Just make sure and rename it.
Just because you could have found what you were looking for faster with less threads. Did you try and search for "3389" or "3588" on xda. I do usually every other day to provide the link you were looking for so I know it exists.
Naysses,
I will try to help you, but you are going to have to do a couple of things:
1. Do not post for help in any other threads any more. I think everyone knows you
were upset and desparate -- but it still is bad netiquette and only upsets people and
makes them angry.
2. I have several things for you to do that we have used in the past. It may take us
a day or two of back and forth. But you've got to do them exactly as requested. From
what I have read your PC and tablet must be a mess of software, so I'm going to
start from scratch.
Here's what you need to do:
1. First we've go to make sure you are set up right and have the right software available
and are doing that right. Following is the thread on NVFlashing back to bekit 1105, which
is stock Version 2638. I want you to erase all the NVFlash setup on your PC and then go
in and do this procedure from end to end exactly as it requests. It's
been done a zillion times and will work if your tab is not to messed up to flash right -- and
that's a possibility we will deal with when we get there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950
Double check everything as you go and note any exceptions that might happen.
If this does not give us a workable setup, then we will look at NVFlashing CWM to
repartition and clean up your internal drive -- but don't even worry about that until
we see if a repeated, good flash will work.
Good Luck,
Rev
P. S. -- I know I'm being demanding and hard on you, but lots of people I help don't
do what is requested and waste my time and theirs. If your problem is like I think it
is we need to get it right! I'll check this thread early tomorrow to see how you
are doing.
Ur a good man Rev
I got stuck in APX mode before when using the (newer?) 152KB nvflash.exe when trying to reflash the stock image. With the 140KB nvflash.exe I re-ran the nvflash_gtablet.bat and it worked successfully. You do need the 152kb version to pull and back up the BCT, but I use the 140kb one when using the batch file to restore stock (with stock recovery)and haven't had issues getting stuck in APX since that switch.
ramerco,
Thanks for the warning and update.
However, if he will just stick with what I give him I know that works.

I gained root access through superoneclick gingerbreak. It gave me the superuser app and i downloaded rom manager but whenever i try to get to clockwork recovery mode it keeps going to samsung recovery. No matter how many times I hit re-install packages it goes back to the samsung recovery. What did I do wrong? Should I have gained root another way? Should I try to flash back to 2.1? Please help I'm so frustrated.
first off dont use gingerbreak. Just odin back to stock and then root by installing the update package twice and after twice ur recovery should turn blue to green.
here follow this, use the eclair root guide:

no modded 3e recovery..so it will keep going to Stock recovery. You need to do what movie said or flash a voodoo kernel or flash a modded 3e recovery.
Interestingly enough I have the same problem, 100% rooted, super user access no issue, busy box installed, root manager installed.
I upgraded the 2.1 to 2.2 from the kies mini software.
I have been doing a ton of reading and would like to start flashing roms, etc etc.
Through titanium backup, I have un-installed a large mount of apps and have not suffered any problems as of yet, but would like to try some custom roms.
My question is, since I uninstalled alot of things, only apps that are bloatware, and since I can't get my clockwork recovery console to take affect, do I have to follow post #2?
Is this link the right one taken out of the link from post #2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047087
Is this the final and correct link, since I do not store data on my phone, and all contacts are on my sim card, and really haven't done any customizations to anything really, can I just odin back and not back anything up? All I use my phone for is calls, txt's and internet, I don't bookmark anything, I don't save txts and call logs mean nothing to me?
I assume I will have to re-root my phone again and do the same procedures, etc etc.
Also as a side note, I am a minimalist type of person, that's why I use linux at home, no windows of any kind (I'll do this procedure at work). Any roms out there that can handle my needs of simply calls, txt'ing and internet without all the other stuff? I don't use GPS, I don't facebook or social network, I don't play games on my phone. I do need however, the use of the camera and video recorder.
Thanks.
I would just follow my advice and odin back to stock its really easy and safe to do. Well if the only apps u have left are bloatware and u dont save anything else i guess u wont need to back anything up before odin. Well the thing its alot easier to root 2.1 then 2.2.
Once ur at 2.1 just do the root process of installing update package twice and after twice ur recovery will turn from blue to green.
follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9375927
the eclair guide
heres the steps for download mode just in case:
power off phone
pull out battery
turn on odin
attach phone to pc with usb cable
now while holding down both volume buttons put battery back in.
now you should be in download mode and go back to stock with odin from here!
make sure u put the proper .pit and .pda file in there proper places on odin and ur set to go.
Enjoy and also make sure u have the proper samsung drivers
So, is this the right link from the guide you posted, it's amazing, I read so many things today that It's easy to get a little well, brain farty, ya know.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047087
Also, I have the kies mini drivers installed, that's how I updated from 2.1 to 2.2 so I assume those will work fine?
BTW, this is the coolest community, props to all involved!!!
Now, I edited my post I think while you were replying, any rom suggestions for a simple user who likes minimal applications but just a well running phone that's not clogged to the gills with stuff?

Yep, that seems to be the consensus, thank you
Guys,
A huge thanks, odin'd back to 2.1, rooted, removed the bloatware I didn't want, gonna make a nandroid back, then proceed on to bionix.
I can understand how first time users can get nervous but once done, the process really is not that hard, just takes patience and making sure everything is prep'd before doing so.
I hope I can now help others if you guys don't beat me to it first
My only question is this: when I create my nandroid backup, where does it go and do I need to save it somewhere just in case like a usb key or something along those lines or does it reside on the phone. Only asking cause I have not yet done this step
U can always make a extra backup and store them on ur ext sd
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Okay, so I assume the backup, made from rom manager "backup current rom" gets stored to the internal memory on the phone?
Any special settings or it just does it's thing, should be smaller than normal as I removed quite a bit of junk and stuff.
i did what you said and i still cant get into clockwork recovery screen! i went back to stock rom, reinstalled packages twice and i still have samsung recovery. i know i have root because i get the super user asking me to give clockwork root access!
So I assume you odin'd back to 2.1, rooted have installed titanimum backup and busy box, rom manager, tapped the flash clockworkmod recovery, then "reboot in recovery" choose update. I rebooted via the rom manager menu, not via the phone itself. I had to update twice immediately, didn't reboot and do it again. I saw it installing and it kinda hung, then used the volume down to update again, and was completed.
Also after installing titanium there was an update for super user, which I also installed as well. Did you do this? Not sure if it has any bearing but thought it was worth mentioning.
It worked seamlessly for me, I had to update twice, then purple turned to green and all is well.
Can you post your steps you took to get back to 2.1, how you rooted, etc etc?
It's kinda fresh in my mind as I only did it about 2 hours ago.
my screw up after i flashed clockwork and rebooted i didnt apply package. all is good now. thx for all the info!
Anytime, I found the process to be quite interesting and taught me alot and also removed my fear of installing new roms and such.
Make sure to create your backup through rom manager. When you do, it will reboot into clockwordrecovery and show you the progress, didn't take that long for mine but I removed alot of nonesense from 2.1. This will be your emergency fall back, you might know this already but just making sure, as I am quite a noob at this point ROFL!
Enjoy
ps - I still can't decide on a new rom, I'm so fussy about stuff, ugh.
Alright, I have some weird things going on in my galaxy tab. I think its bricked, but if it is, its definitely only soft bricked.
Figured I'd post a video showing stuff as I cant really explain it. It shows up in my windows, so i can access inside it, but i have no idea what to do, it shows up in Kies, too
I'm wanting to hopefully make it usable, and if not usable AT LEAST get rid of clockwork mod recovery so I can return it!
So how do i fix my tab?
(note i was following the samsunggalaxytabhacks unrooting guide when I did this, I cant link b/c new
7510, btw
did you flash anything prior to this happening? I ask as I used the wrong kernel one time, one that wasn't for TW and when I rebooted it did the exact same thing... Did you make a backup?
Try to d/l one of the custom roms, since kies can see it, place the zip on sdcard and follow the OP to install it.
yeah im pretty sure i used the 3g model/non touchwiz kernal and this happened! i cleared m device, thinking it would fix it i guess i lost my backup!
go to roms section on 10.1 android development, and look for the correct kernel, transfer to sdcard via kies and go to recovery and reflash kernel for the TW. Or just d/l Tasks/Phantoms rom Paris and do the same, follow the OP to a T, that should fix it.
which one would be the right one?
I would use

There is a very good walkthough on putting your 7510 back to stock (first step I would suggest). This walk through gives you all the files you need. I have tested this (files include tested pit files, rom files, etc..)

Well, I'm new to the android world and found some very nice tips and tricks.. however I've come to an problem. Was tinkering with Rom Toolbox to find icons that I liked as I do not like the default ones.. but it seems none of the 1% work and every other one i've tried for the battery goes to 20%.
Before installing them it said to back up and I did however it didnt seem to save them and when I try to restore default icons its greyed out. Tried everything I could think of and nothing worked..
Where can I download
Blur.Version.651.73.240.XT910.Rogers.en.CA ROM
so that I can literally turn my phone back into right out of the box icons and all..
and on that note.. is there a way to save the ROM once i do restore it so if i come to this issue again I can easily put it back on.
ANY and ALL help is greatly appreciated.
No one has this ROM?

I'm looking for this one too!
Ditto, I would like to obtain it also.
I actually haven't molested my RAZR rom yet and I do happen to have that version. However, I'm not too well versed in ripping roms off of a phone. Maybe if there was a comprehensive guide on how to do so, I could help you guys out.
Hey! I had made a thread a while ago with a Nandroid of the stock rogers rom you can restore with cwm. Search it up and restore it. You should be able to go back to out of the box condition. Also make sure you follow the edited instructions. Good luck and let me know if it works well or if you need any help.

Thanks!
Thanks so much! Worked perfectly for restoring! Now that I have those crappy apps I removed, back on the phone, I'll hopefully be able to update!
Ok, so I readily admit that I'm the jackass the n00b video was aimed at. I thought I understood what I was doing, and clearly didn't. Now I can't get my phone to do ****.
I was attempting to flash the new CM9 beta. First time I've attempted to flash anything.
was on 2.3.5.
rooted using the 2.3.5 root method.
SBF-ed to 2.3.4. (prob didn't need to root on 2.3.5 if I was going to sbf to 2.3.4, but I'm an idiot)
SBF went fine. then I messed up good.
at the end of Moon Shadow's SBF tutorial he said he recommends the full factory reset, so I did it.
so now...I have no phone service. looking at settings/about phone it doesn't know my phone # and I have no idea how to fix this. not sure what other problems will present themselves after that, but that's the big issue. I'm connected to my home network, so at least I have some data connectivity.
before starting...
I made a backup with Clockwork Recovery, but that backup seems to be gone.
I made a backup with Go Backup, and that seems to still be there, but it was a 2.3.5 backup...how can I get to that and will it fix my problem?
ideally right now I'd just like to go back to the Go Backup backup I made before starting any of this and then I can reconsider where to go next.
additionally, I thought about just going forward, but I cannot for the life of my figure out how to flash this CM9 ROM, despite having read the directions 15 times. I tried to use Clockwork to install it from SD, but when I try that I can't see the .zip, despite having copied it over.
Can anyone take pity on a n00blet, or point me to a thread with information on how to solve this (I searched and had trouble finding anything useful)?
Very appreciative of all help.

ok, noob found thread about activation and fixed that part.
now I'm hoping I can just go back to 2.3.5 and apply my backup.
Lol, first take a deep breath. Your phone is not hosed, it's actually working like it's supposed too.
After you sbf, you phone is back to it's factory state right? So remember when you got your phone for the first time you had to have it activated/programmed. If you're on Verizon then dial *228 and follow the directions, takes about 5 minutes. This will give you back service and your phone number.
Second, the droid x2 is unique and requires a few different steps than most phones to flash things because it has whats called a locked, encrypted bootloader. So with the X2 you will NEVER want to use Rom Manager (Clockwork Mod Recovery) or Rom Toolbox. They just do not work with our phone yet.
Your going to want to read this link: http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x2-support/41785-common-x2-questions-answers.html
It gives a good overview of how the X2 works and explains a lot of things.
Then go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318083
This explains how to install and get into the X2's special Bootstrap Recovery. This is where you will make backups, restore backups, and flash new roms. The thread explains in great detail how to make and restore backups in Bootstrap Recovery.
oh man, thanks a bunch lead off.
that whole deal with the boot strap is something that I never saw in all the reading I did and probably solves a lot of my problems. I'll do what you said (starting with the deep breath) and begin again.
thanks again for the help.
Yea no problem
