Hi , i have a galaxy s gt-i9000m (canadian version of a gt-i9000) that stop working yesterday for no apparent reason (nothing new installed), it always reboot with the S logo. I can enter download or recovery mode. Is there a way to backup all files from phones via a computer. When i connect it to computer it sees 2 removable media disk but they show them as empty. Samsung Kies doesn't connect, tell me to change to usb debugging, but i cant since it dont boot.
i don't really care about phone (already have a new one to replace it), but i must backup files that are on phone, (over 8gb of stuff!)
phone is rooted and on ANDROID 2.3.
What can i try?
You say you can enter into recovery mode so try this if your new phone is an Android, make a nandroid backup of your old phone then put sdcard from your old phone into new phone then install "AppExtractor" free from market, extract files to new phone. not sure if it will work but you could try.

how do i do the nandroid backup in recovery mode?
In recovery mode use the up/down volume keys to scroll options and power button to select options.

tried, it shows mount /data in menu but it doesn't mount, but i have a folder named datadata and i am able to mount it but backup stops at data folder and doesnt try datadata folder
so now backup backups system folder and stops at /data since it cannot mount it
is there a cwm version that i can specify which folder to backup?

Well I got to compile the last non-touch recovery and finally is now possible to mount both SDcards (internal and external).
Work:
Installing from ZIP
Factory Reset
Wipe Cache
Backup Nandroid
Internal and External SDCard
Untested:
Fix Permissions
Battery Stats
SDCard Partition
Download: CWM 5.2.0.8
Thanks to TheManii for the help.

Hi, Im using your source file of: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22967442&postcount=47 but I modified the file recovery.fstab. To mount the both sdcard (Internal & external).
For remirror, ok no problem.

Just wondering if one could do an Android restore from files created with CWM 4.0.1.4 using say CWM 5.0.2.8?

Try this recovery for ICS maybe work. If boot work maybe in ICS the problem is recovery.fstab
The partition is different of HoneyComb?
Greetings
I just tried it on ICS B4 and get the same "Can't mount /data!" error after backing up the boot image, recovery img and system that I got with CWM 4.0.1.4.
Backup to internal card errors with "Can't mount backup path". Whoops! I didn't mount the EMMC. Probably would get the same error as with the external sd.
Recs designed for HC wont wont on ICS as ICS has different partitions.
If we ever get an ICS build that uses the same partitions then the recs for HC will also work on it
Edit: 5.0.2.8 is mirrored and linked to the wiki now

Any with ICS, You can enter the recovery (CWM 5.0.2.8) and go to Advanced-> Show Log
After this reboot to system. Open Root filemanager and go to cache/recovery/last_log (To read the last_log must copy it to another route) & copy the info here.
And repeat the process with Stock Recovery of ICS (Attach ICS Stock Recovery of the ICS B4 of DJ_Steve ROM).

What rom are you trying to flash?
Man, ok heres my story.
Actually iam trying to flash a recovery mode but there so many threads that i dont know wich one is better. I tried some of them but i dont know where to start. I only end up at the fastboot mode and not pass that.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
and you ran "fastboot flash recovery ./recovery.img" ? And you made sure your device is in fastboot mode first?
ok this what i did, i Press VOL + AND POWER at the same time and gave me fastboot.
Then plug in the phone to the computer and the computer detects it but when i go to the computer devices it does not show anything available.
I do have the ROM MANAGER app Installed and flash the recovery mode but it does not show up when i press VOL - AND POWER, It just turns ON.
just type in "fastboot devices". if you see "? device" than you are good. If not you need to install the fastboot drivers.
How do i install cwm recovery (rom manager) so that i can boot in recovery mode? I installed flash recovery but had no changes.if i use the power button when phone is on, cwm is not in the list.
My phone is already rooted!
I'm not sure what you meen. You need root for rom manager to install cwm.
If you're rooted already just pick your model in rom manager and it will install cwm for you.

For touch version through rom manager you need premium licence I think.
You can download their *.img from cwm site, rename it to recovery.img, put it on your external sd and flash it to recovery with "dd" command in terminal.
"su"
"dd if=/storage/extSdCard/recovery.img of=dev/block/mmcblk0p21"
Make sure you get the digits in the end right or else you might not be able to boot again.
I cant find the thread.if i search i get tons of threads.maybe you have a link?

I also made a cwm flashable .zip with cwm-touch 6.0.2.7
Just flash it in cwm or twrp. Enjoy.
I downloaded from my phone.now i open it and it ask if i wanna open with 7zip or rom pre-install.i used rom pre-install.it ask boot and install.use that one? Or first extract?
reboot and install.
alright,i charge my phone battery first and then i go for it
what if i check; wipe data and cache on,what will happen?do u recommend?because if i go to battery,i see 2 android proces running
Yeah do that. Never flash with a bad battery
Nothing needs to be wiped for a recovery flash.
Wipe data will make a factory reset and wipe all your apps and user data, so dont.
You can wipe cache and dalvik cache without loosing anything. Cache rebuilds itself, but first boot takes a very long time..be patient.
thanks bro.
do you know why my battery shows 2 android processors running? (phone settings>battery) i get this list:
Internet
Android system
Android system
mediaserver
rom manager
mobile standby
so whats up with the 2 android systems?
bro.i installed. but how can i see if the instal succeed?how do i boot in recovery mode?
i dont think its working.
if i press the power button and you see the list with: shutdown,restart,airplaine mode....i dont see cwm

Thats an extended power menu. You won't find it in stock rom.
Reboot recovery from rom manager or use vol+/home/power combination.

Use an USB adapter and do a back up form your sd to your pc, you can use apps as titanium backup to backup your data/apps or you can do it manually using whatever browser you want that allow you to manage system partition....
To create a swap patition you will need to use gparted, minipartition tools or do it via recovery in order to get a swap partition or simply using swapper app from Google Play and avoiding create partitions and obviusly a kernel that support it (BE, CF-ROOT e.g.)

a few days ago i dropped my galaxy s2 in the toilet(dont laugh) so i went to using my brother's old s plus I9001.
long story short,i tried to upgrade the 2.3.3 to a 4.2.2 Jellybean using this guide : http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/4579...alaxy-s-plus-i9001-android-4.htm#.VAWoGfmSzGA
i searched a few other guides beforehand,most of which stated that i need a rooted phone,so i rooted it using a guide i found on this forum(here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001)
this is everything i did :
1. Connect the Galaxy S Plus to your computer.
2. Unrar the CM 10.1 firmware RAR file you have downloaded
3. Copy the CM 10.1 firmware you have extracted from the unrar file to the SD card of your phone.
4. Turn off the Galaxy S Plus.
5. Reboot the device into Recovery mode. Press Volume up + Home + Power keys simultaneously. You can flash this ROM using the stock recovery or a custom recovery app.
6. In the Recovery mode, select "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition."
7. Then select "install zip from SD card" and "choose zip from SD card." Search for the firmware you have copied on the device.
8. Select the firmware file and install it.
9. Go back and select "reboot system now."
so everything went well,until i tried rebooting the device.im stuck now at the cyanogenmod logo.basically i have a boot loop isue.
being a noob at these kind of things,my first thought was that my phone had bircked,so i followed an unbricking tutorialobviously,it didnt work.
can you please help me solve this bootloop s**t? :good::good:

My S Advance is hard bricked and I am unable to bring it back to life, though it does go to recovery mode and download mode I've flashed plenty of firmwares from 2.3.6 to 4.1.2 and none of them work. Anyway I'm past that because I've bought a new phone now, what I need to ask is this: Can I somehow recover the data from my internal SDcard, and how should i go about doing so?
I want to add one more thing...
I know the problem of the phone not booting is hardware related, but i believe that the internal memory is intact. I believe so because when i go to recovery mode I am able to mount and unmout sdcard0, also using the "Install zip" option I'm able to view the folders inside sdcard0.

If you are able to enter the custom recovery,as you said,you could do an nandroid backup and it will be automaticly safe to your sd-card.
After that you can open it up in your new or other smartphone with nandroid manager and you can pull out all your files and savegames etc. .
