Hi,
I want to update to the newest update of eclipse and I am running the remix so the old version of gingerbread. Can I just flash to the new eclipse? Or do I have to flash a rooted 2.3.4 then flash the new eclipse?
If so where is a rooted 2.3.4?
thanks

use RSD Lite to sbf to 2.3.4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1284679 then root it with motorola one click root http://www.psouza4.com/Bionic/ Then download and install bootstrap for x2. Get eclipse 1.0 and 1.1 and install both on the SD card, use bootstrap and just flash 1.0 and 1.1. Wipe first and i also think you need to do a factory reset.

Do you need to factory reset or clear cache and dalvick when you flash the patch?

i would clear catch and dalvick. Im not to sure about factory reset but i would do it incase.
Wipe data and cache, then flash 1.0. Then flash the patch immediately after that. Shouldn't be any need to wipe twice. Worked fine for me anyway.
what camera does eclipse 1.1 use?
Camera is eclipse 1.1 using? Is it the blur 2.3.3 or is it still using the MIUI camera? Thinking about flashing tonight.

Thanks for the answer. I am still trying to figure out how to push the blur camera and gallery from my Tit backup. I figured out how to change permissions but still need to figure out how to open the zip files.

Nitro removed alot of blur framework so it may not work when you get it installed. Blur crap is dependant on other blur crap, so any time nitro removes some blur, he removes the other crap that makes it work. Good luck.

DX2 Eclipse 1.0
Battery draining fast eclipse 1.1
I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I charged my phone all night before flashing 2.3.4 this morning. I cleared everything including battery stats. I loaded eclips 1.0 and 1.1 and once I was on eclipse I even calibrated my battery. I had it on the charger all morning while flashing and loading up apps. I did not calibrate battery until after it was on %100 for a long time. Calibrated and unplugged. Now I have noticed with light usage with some music and web and I dropped to %80 in 40 minutes. Does this sound right? Seemed like the battery life was better when I was on the rooted stock rom. I also noticed this when I tried .8.1 on 2.3.3. Any ideas for a noob? Thanks!

I just installed Kenneth's Alien rom(which is great by the way!) and it seems the camera app didn't install. I haven't seen others with this issue so I thought I'd ask here. In the meantime I can use my 2.2.2 camera backup, but I'd like to be able to use the newer gingerbread version.

I am running alien v4 and installed the cherrypi camera. It works, but it's stuck in landscape mode, cannot switch to portrait. any suggestions on that?
I've been running Alien #4 for a couple of weeks now. A few things were giving me issues at first, but I re-wiped everything, re-flashed, re-wiped all again, and now everything's OK. No issues at all.

i'm running P3's rooted gingerbread. it's not running as flawlessly as rooted froyo (HDMI doesn't work, cloud version google music doesn't work). i have a nandroid backup of froyo. can i just flash the backup froyo rom or do i need to sbf? i don't mind sbf'ing but i would like to avoid the hassle of having to sbf, reinstall everything, re root, re debloat, etc.
has anyone successfully flashed a backup froyo from gingerbread?
thanks.
I have considered rolling back to my 2.2 nandoid backup myself. I have both 2.3 and 2.2 set up the same (supercharged, debloated, sd speed increas, vold.file to switch sd external read as internal) and honestely 2.2 was faster and less glichy than 2.3 has been. I "think" you shoul be OK to flash your 2.2 backup from 2.3, but I am not positive about this so wait until others have chimed in to this thread.
google didn't find many results so i read the droidx forum. there are several threads in that forum stating that the X could NOT flash a backup of froyo when on gingerbread. boot up gets stuck at M.
i would assume that it's the same w/ the X2. i think the gb upgrade installed a new bootloader and this is the reason why you can't simply flash a backup froyo rom.
awaiting confirmation.
You can't load backups cross versions. You would need to sbf to froyo first, root and bootstrap, then load your backup. Like wise if you wanted to load a gingerbread backup you'd have to be currently on gingerbread.

Unsupercharge and see how 2.3.3 runs for you. Kills froyo IMO

2.3.3 had bad music skipping and pausing w/out supercharger. supercharger addressed the lag, for the most part. no way i could use 2.3.3 w/out supercharger.
anyway, i sbf'ed back to froyo, rerooted, loaded custom recovery, debloated, supercharged. i like it better than froyo. my hdmi out works. my cloud google music works. the music does not skip or pause. the only complaint is the screen lag coming out of sleep. i had forgotten about that.
now that i've tried 2.3.3, i'm staying w/ froyo.

Could you not sbf back to froyo, root and install bootstrap, then restore your nandroid backup?
definitely i could've. but i wanted to start from scratch and refreeze crApss and install supercharger. i like fresh starts.

Hi, I just rooted my Droid X2 this morning on 2.3.4 and want to install Eclipse 2.0.2 and realized that have to be on 2.3.5. I saw this thread and was wondering if it was possible for me to just boot into bootstrap and flash 2.3.5 and install Eclipse 2.0.2 without having to SPF back to complete stock unrooted 2.3.4? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Edit: I also read somewhere that ROM manager does not work correctly with the DX2? If that is the case, what is the best alternative to this?

You must follow that thread to a T if you want to be on eclipse 2.02 or else it will not work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412729 same thread in post #3. Follow it and enjoy. If you try your own thing it will not work. A lot of hard work and a couple of days to figure out this method and it is the only way I got on 2.02 and loving it

There really is no alternative to rom manager for what it does. You HAVE to use bootstrap recovery
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
If your running the STOCK 2.3.4, then you do NOT need to SBF to a fresh version. This is whether your rooted or not. You'll only need to SBF to stock 2.3.4 if you installed a custom ROM on, like Molten, Liberty, etc.
Personally, I would recommend SBF'ing - but that's just because I like a fresh, clean start with these things. Eitherway, it'll work perfectly fine.
As for getting to 2.3.5, it's recommend that you use the "Android Recovery" that comes with it to flash the update. Once your on 2.3.5 you'll need to reroot and install BSR to get the custom ROM on.

Yes it can be done
BUT
For people who are just trying to follow the directions for the ROM install, they will end up having issues, because no where in the ROM install instructions, for any ROM we have, does it mention deleting SU backup made by root keeper. So if they try to just flash a ROM after rooting w/ root keeper, they will get an "installation aborted error line 294" & if they aren't able to restore a backup before rebooting then it's just going to be sbf time anyways lol.
If you know what you are doing tho and have read into it and found what you need to do of using root keeper to gain root, then yes, go for it, but the "average" user here is going to have no idea why they keep getting installation aborted, when they could just use zergrush and be all good to go
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
As it is, if I have to go to 2.3.5, I hold off rooting until AFTER I've updated to 2.3.5. No need to root if I'm sbfing to 2.3.4 and updating to 2.3.5. The root is only needed when I'm ready to install BSR and flash a custom ROM.
This is what I do:
SBF to 2.3.4
Apply 2.3.5 update
Root
Install BSR
Flash 2.3.5 custom ROM
Done
To me, Rootkeeper just seems to cause more hassles and it's just easier to root after I'm done updating to 2.3.5. No need to root at the 2.3.4 level.
Of course, if you are already rooted at 2.3.4 and want to update to 2.3.5, I can see that, but Rootkeeper has been proven to cause issues and it just creates more work to avoid those issues.

In my case I had issues with Darkside, and now that I have switched to WetDream it's running great. (that was using the webtop2sd mod, the stock webtop was working fine)
So I guess I would recommend WetDream by Nottach.

I just rooted my DX2, i intended to use rom manager to flash/backup my roms but that was not working. So i downloaded bootstrap (the little green arrow icon) and used that to make a backup of my stock system and then used titanium backup to backup all my apps.
What i wanted to know is when i finally install a new rom and do a data wipe how do i recover everything if it starts me with a clean phone? do i just reinstall titanium and bootstrap and will SU still be installed?
Also can you point me to a good guide on installing CM9 to my DX2?
Thank you,

A couple of things. What system version are you on? 2.3.4 or 2.3.5? Also Rom Manager doesnt work for us (as you know now.) Are you using the BSR from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318083 ?
When you install a ROM yes you reinstall the BSR (but if you are going on CM7-9-10 then you need the CM7 patched BSR once on the ROM.) and then Redownload Titanium Backup. All your backups are stored on your external card so a wipe doesnt get rid of them. Once titanium is loaded back up it will find them.
A rom comes rooted so SU and everything is part of the package. Install instructions for ROMS are on the original page of the ROMS. Just note that if you are on 2.3.5 the only ROM that will work for you is Eclipse. All the other ROMs are 2.3.4 based.

Eclipse is a very stable and clean ROM. I used it for a long time. CM7 is also stable and a.lot.more customizable but you will need to SBF to 2.3.4 to get on it. Both eclipse and CM7 are gingerbread roms. Cm9, MIUI, AOKP Paranoid Android are ICS and CM10 is jellybean.
