Hey all, I need a simple temp root for my Archos 70 running 2.3.28.
I just need to backup all my apps with Titanium pro and transfer them over to Uruk/CM7.
Any way to do it?
At the moment there is no solution for this that I'm aware of. Still if someone does know i also would like to know it.
Btw anyone that knows if there is a new archangel app on the way? Or is this just not possible anymore on 2.3? (Never ever again? @Froyo)

@OP
You should root with chulris method
It is just "hard" as the installation of urukdroid
As Uruk asks you while installing if it should copy the data from your installation,
what do you need that for?

I must have skipped that option when I installed it the first time
Guess I'm going to install it again
How would I go about installing UrukDroid so that I can have it showup on the OpenAOS multiboot menu?

Hi all,
This is my first post and my first thread, so please don't flame at me.
Well I want to run FreeX10 BETA 4 and the Android Generic FW 2.1 at the same time. I have had a look around, and it seems like that it is possible but I'm having trouble.
If anyone wants to help me, please PM me for my MSN, or post below.
Thanks.

Hello -
Did you figure out how to do this?
Thanks.
What you would do is make a backup of both roms in xrecovery, and then you would just restore whichever backup you wanted to use at that time!
So can I say -
1) Root my current 2.1 Eclair
2) Install XRecovery
3) Backup current 2.1 via XRecovery
4) Install Custom ROM 2.2
5) Backup 2.2 via XRecovery
Now you have two backups and you can switch between 2.1 and 2.2 via XRecovery Restore option. Is this correct?
Thanks.

Yes.
Thank you!
Yes, you can switch between them.. But it's not really dual boot.. Wouldn't it be a bit time consuming to do the reinstall of the fw each time you want to switch?

If if and only if 5 minutes is time consuming. Cause that's seriously about how long it takes to switch.
And also to the OP. Remember that you want both of them set up exactly how you want them and don't change it because unless you make a new backup, what you add or change in between wont stay when you restore.

Guys I need some help hopefully you can clear some questions I got.
If I do a a full system wipe with xrecovery, dalvik cache and battery stats.
Is it going to delete a previously saved backup?
cause Im trying to install froyo on my x10 and already got a full system backup of my 2.1 using xrecovery but im not sure if I got the correct steps to do it.
What Im trying to do basically is get 2 backups to switch between em when needed.
when you do a backup its storred in sdcard under /sdcard/xrecovery(recovery)/backup/<date based name>
also wiping all stat and /data /cache will clear all your ROM related data from your phone.
So basically wich steps would be the correct ones to follow in order to get 2 backups so I can switch between when needed,without bricking my phone?
you won't brick your phone
i don't know why you bother, its gonna take 5 min for each changeover, and assuming you'll make no progress in between each change, but then, no you don't need to wipe anything. Sigh, here are the steps: Just back up and then install, then back up that one, and then restore which ever you need. Also, just to make sure, your backups are located under sdcard/xrecovery/backup . So you don't screw up the md5 check, if your gonna rename it, don't put any spaces.

Hello,
on the 11 of april, I installed Urukroid based on 1.0 files (http://sauron.pourix.com/UrukDroid/UrukDroid-1.0/EI/) with the installer of 0.7.
The installation seems to be succesful but when I boot with UD I don't see my applications.
Did I miss something?
Thanks for reading,
V
Did you install UrukDroid 1.0 using UrukUpdate or by extracting and flashing the kernel?
Also, if you went through the UrukDroid install procedure, did you select yes when it asked to copy over your /data partition?
thanks for your anwser

I followed the recommanded choice, means no copy of data...
Then your apps were deleted during installation
You have to do it with the update method over **/Urukupdate, if you want your apps
I installed the apps after the installation of UD but I thought that the appli I'm installing are visible in Android AND in UD... then I need to install all my new apps twice?
vanpevi said:

I think yes,
because the urukdroid system is based on the SDE from archos (actually designed for linux/angstrom, so a parallel app function is not included )
but maybe this will be included in urukdroid when our bootloader is completely cracked and whe have an CM )
Can anyone help me to clean install my archos?
I rooted my archos 70 with chulri's method, and removed some bloatware from archos that I thought I wouldn't use.
But now I want to have it back, unroot my archos, and even go back to the stock ROM.
Can anyone help me?

Just simply reset your Archos over settings

Oh, would that actually give back my bloatware and stuff that I remove from /system/app/ ?
And actually unroot it?
I'm gonna try it as soon as I get my archos back...

I think so
It reset all and make your archos like "just-bought"
probably you will have to download from APPLIB some applications that with restore will not be included.
I believe I am ready to root my NT but am second guessing myself so could you wonderful people read the steps I believe I need to follow to see if my understanding is correct. If I have any part wrong could you please correct me? Thank you in advance. (I will be thanking you again when it all works.)
1. Turn off wi-fi
2. Factory Restore either by using the ‘n’ and power key 8-10x or the magic sd card
3. Use Indirect’s [Blocks OTA's!] Full root for Nook Tablet. [11/20/11] [Permanent root!] with help from Albert’s videos as I need VIDEO Collection: How To Root, use Dropbox, demo by Albert Wertz of Tabletroms
4. [simple]How to stop OTA's[tutorial] Will I need to do this, taking it to 9.9.9 or is that done already in the root (step 3)?
5. Install HomeCatcher
6. Now do brianf21’s Hidden Settings App Updated 12/29/11
7. Then do SG Pillar’s instructions with ADW Ex launcher to make my homescreen the way I want it.
Now if I do all above correctly I will:
A. Block those damn FOTA updates
B. Still be able to use Nook apps/site/books
C. Be able to use Amazon apps
D. Be able to use Android Market
Please make corrects where needed. I don’t want to brick this thing but I want to be able to use it with the freedom I feel I have the right to. Once I know I have stuff right I will throw back a no-doze with a pepsi-max and get to work. Thanks for your help!!

I just re-watched the videos. I can't thank you enough for those. I will be doing the root first thing in the morning. Two questions...
1. Do I need to do the factory restore first to go back to 1.4.0?
2. Do I leave the wi-fi for the whole process or do I turn that off after doing the drivers?
Again thank you and all rest for all your hard work!

Just had my tablet rooted but it doesn't say 9.9.9 software version. Is something wrong? My friend said he followed the steps by indirect. it still says software version 1.4.0
Hello @jumpman23j welcome to the forums, WHICH ROOT METHOD DID YOU USE?
ok i'll guess and say Indirect's, if so please follow his other thread specificly to stop OTA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405418

Yes you should be good now but i would even recommend to freeze device manager an unfreeze whenever you need to download from B&N app. You need titanium backup pro for that purpose.

Can you please explain the need for titanium backup pro again? So since I blocked the OTA I can't currently download from B&N? Sorry for the stupid questions. And thanks for your help and time.
Have you rebooted it at all. Mine only showed 9.9.9 after I did this

TiBU Pro is so you can freeze DeviceManager.apk, which, if you want to feel truly safe from OTA's, you can do. the problem with doing that is that if DeviceManager is frozen, you can't dl from B&N. You would need to unfreeze (thaw) it, dl what you want, then freeze it again.
I am not sure this is absolutely needed, but hey, an ounce of prevention...

Question: If I never ever plan to download from B&N, can I leave device manager frozen? Or would that screw something else up down the road?

i think if you freeze device manager, the info for the owner of the device under device info becomes unavailable... not sure if thats important to you but yeah...
aside from freezing the B&N app store it also turns your owner info into unavailable.
if you did the extreme debloat from indirect's nook and zergy then the unavailable thing has already been applied...
Well I did nook and zergy way back, to root the tablet. But I don't know if I did extreme debloat, unless that's just automatically part of the nook and zergy process.
Is there a way to apply the extreme debloat option without running a whole new root?

i think adb hijack is what your looking for... i don't really know how to use it though lol, might learn how soon though so i can push some vid files directly to /data instead of having to transfer to sd card first and then to /data
still have 2.5 gb of internal left...
Hello, my healthy advice is research a bit more until you understand more of how all this works. If you want to re-root and you do it wrong you can brick you device and get a big exclamation mark, read carefully and ask whatever you don't understand before you do things. If I be you first of all i will ask myself exactly how I want my nook to act, in the end you be sure if you want full debloat or not but if you do you wont have support on indirects thread (that is stated in his start post [OP]) is why I say read carefully.
Now for re-root with a newer version of nook&zergy by Indirect you need (must) to install his adb hijack application, you can find that application (app) in apps and themes section of this forum.
Have fun.
