Before unlock and root my nexus 10, I tried to backup up my app and setting using ADB backup. However, no matter using Wug's toolkit or mskip's toolkit, the backup function doesn't work for me. Every time, after I click the backup button from my nexus 10, the PC screen just pop up a window says that the backup has completed. However, the backup .ab file size is 0 bytes. I tried several times and also tried to restart pc and tablet and turn the tablet to airplane mode before backup. Still doesn't work. Is something wrong with my nexus 10? Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Is there no body having same problem?

Does anybody have the same problem? Have you solved your problem? I have a lot apps and games. I don't want to lose them and their setting after unlocking and root. Please help.

i would not rely on a tool. best way is to enter the command directly either in linux terminal or windows command prompt.
go to the directory where sdk is installed and where u can find adb.
on my linux machine it is under /downloads/android-sdk-linux-x86/platform-tools/
make sure to be root
then i type in ./adb devices (to make sure adb finds my device)
then i go /.adb backup -all -nosystem -noshared -apk -f /home/me/backup/something.ab
in windows fire up command prompt as administrator
go into ur adb directory
type adb devices
then adb backup -all -nosystem -noshared -apk -f c:\backup\something.ab
hope it works

two possible workarounds are

Will buying an unlock code from one of eBay unlockers work or not?
I feel like I bought a brick here. lol
Anyways, any input would be greatly appreciated. I'm not looking to do anything else to it other than unlock and use it for now. While I'm fairly competent with doing this tech-stuff, the Android stuff is a step above for me, so I wanna take my time to learn this all.
It's my first smartphone after using a Nokia 6265i for the past 5 years.

So for me this phone is a treat as is, if only I can get it unlocked.
Thanks for your help and input.
It's because adb can't get to the file without root. Happened to me too. I just manually copied the nv_data.bin over to my computer using the standard usb mass storage and ran sgux on it.
Code:
C:\androidsdk\tools>adb shell
/ $su
#cp /efs/nv_data.bin /sdcard
#exit
#exit
then mount the usb storage, copy over the nv_data.bin to the folder with sgux.exe in it (i put mine in c:\androidsdk), then:
Code:
C:\androidsdk>sgux nv_data.bin
and with any luck you'll have it.

Okay, I understand a bit. but I'm not sure what all the coding is all about and how/what to do. You copied nv_data.bin from your phone to a location on the computer?
I set my Vibrant to mass storage and while it's not showing on MyComputer anywhere, the only thing that pops up is the microSD card with the movie on it.
Correct... instead of androidsdk it would be wherever you saved it..
Having one hell of a time accessing my phone via the computer.
It's connected, but no icon to click open or anything of the sort (inside MyComputer)
Ok, this is what I have on my screen now.
No EFS folder, no nv_data.bin, anywhere in the folders.
You need to use root explorer or adb(maybe astro) for access to your internal system directories. Just pull the file using adb like chui mentioned. If you aren't familiar with adb then I suggest you read up in the Vibrant bible.

Well I just looked through it and there doesn't seem to be a thread specifically about adb file system actions.
Just open a command prompt and "cd" to your android sdk tools folder.
example: cd c:\sdk\tools
type:
adb shell
su
cp /efs/nv_data.bin /sdcard
exit
adb pull /sdcard/nv_data.bin /nv_data
that should get nv_data.bin into your tools folder under the folder nv_data. then just move the nv_data.bin into the sgux.exe folder
I'll try this now, thanks Iral.
Trying to type what you put, I can't remember for the life of me how to enter multiple command lines in command prompt. Hitting ENTER executes the first line. But I'm supposed to type all that out correct?

i've firstly root.ok.n then xrecovery.ok..but then when i want to enable JIT following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877565,
my phone suddenly can't connect to wifi.and then the xrecovery cant be perform...and other things,how can i perform this operation?
(1: enable JIT (in a termnial or adb shell)
cd adb
adb shell
su
cd /sdcard/JiT-toggle-0.1
sh enable_jit.sh)
i connect the phone to pc an enable debug mode,run cmd,but pc says cant detect..watsoever..
can anyone help me?
If you followed all instructions for JIT and your wifi doesn't work means it wasn't the correct version of Busybox. I recommend you to install Titanium Backup hit Problems? and install busybox. Then, when you copy all files for JIT, don't copy busybox, because you have already the latest one. It should work. It happend to me, too. The nasty part is that you need to repair your Android with PcCompanion/ SEUS.
do i need to repair my phone first with pc companion or repeat again the step?
n how to run cmd?do i need to enable debug?i dont know how to do this instruction,1: enable JIT (in a termnial or adb shell)
cd adb
adb shell
su
cd /sdcard/JiT-toggle-0.1
sh enable_jit.sh
Well, if you have your phone rooted with superoneclick, then you got adb.exe. You need to access that folder into cmd. ex : c:\superoneclick\ and then with the phone connected (usb debug enabled) you can enter commands like adb shell and su. Try it. But wifi and xrecovery malfunctions are symptoms that something went wrong. Eventually repair with PcCompanion. Good Luck.
when i run the command prompt,it says 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file..is this because i didnt rooted my phone well?
Do you have adb.exe? Or superoneclick for root?
yeah.i have both.i downloaded superoneclick and inside ithave adb.exe..but when i click adb.exe,nothing happened.just a temporary command prompt about 2second and then its appeaered..
now open start-run->cmd and go to that folder. And only there you can run "adb shell".
So, in cmd you must be in that folder in order to input all commands.
go to that folder?what do u mean?open cmd from the folder?or open cmd and click to the folder?
sorry for the noob question..

i got big probs.. my homescreen and apps icon become smaller and i dont know whats going on.
is it brick or something else?
i try to use pc companion and seus,but it keep saying no update for my phone..
seriously,this small icon thing make me crazy..
I don't know what's with the screen, shouldn't have happened. Seus says no update, but Repair button is active so you can make it brand new. Then try again rooting and jit.
The purpose of this program is to make my life easier when developing on the Android Platform. At he same time it may also make your life easier. I would like to keep this project totally open source and I include all of the source files withing the .zip that it comes in. What does this program do? It will allow you to flash custom ROMs straight from your computer, fast and hassle-free.
In this new version, I have done a ton of error/big fixes, rewrote quite a lot, and finally added wiping functionality. Enjoy!
Infiniflash REQUIRES that your device has ClockworkMod Recovery or any recovery that supports /cache/recovery/extendedcommand.
By the way, if you can think of a better name/icon for this program, please, please, please tell me.

I have a DHD as well and had the same issue. You must install the driver for it to work on your device.
1) Visit this link to download and install HTC Sync (which contains the driver): http://goo.gl/P3ZP1
2) After installation plug your device in.
3) To verify you have the driver, open the Infiniflash folder, hold the shift key and right click on the tools folder. Click open command prompt.
4) Now type in the command: adb devices
5) If your device showed up, it worked! Otherwise, try restarting or syncing your phone in HTC Sync, it should start working eventually.
6) Now that you have the driver, Infiniflash will *hopefully* work from now on.
Best of luck
Cheers.

By wiping to ext3 & ext4 do you mean formatting the /system partition to one of those formats? If so I might be able to implement it or make an add-on . By the way, which device requires you to do that? I've never heard of that before... are you sure it's a requirement?

Thank you very much! I think I'll port it over soon, but the only bad part about that is that I have no idea how to make GUI's in Linux so it would be command line only .
It's funny that you mention that though because I'm a Linux user myself and never really thought about it.
So if you were like me and upon first watching JCase's video for RockMyMoto and were confused, this is for you. This guide will cater to Windows users since Mac and Linux users should be able to follow along seamlessly to JCase's steps. The steps here are no different, the commands are the same, just an extra application that works better than the Windows built in Telnet client.
First off I just want to thank JCase for taking so much time to release this for us. All credit goes to him.
Download Cydia Impactor (Thanks Saurik!) from his website HERE.
Download the RockMyMoto.zip attachment from JCase's post HERE.
Next download the PuTTYtel file "puttytel.exe" (You don't need the full application) HERE.
The initial steps are the same regardless of platform. I won't go into details on getting ADB set up, etc. Follow JCase's video and guide for all of that or search around XDA. Chances are someone else has explained this.
***STEP ONE***
So at this point your phone should be connected to ADB and you should have your IP Address. Leave your ADB window open as we will go back to it later. Run the Cydia Impactor application from the above download.
From the drop down menu, select:
Code:
# start telnetd as system on port 2222
Click on start and you should see a series of messages saying testing, installing, waiting to complete (a couple others) and then it goes back to the # start telnetd" message. This is OK.
***STEP TWO***
Run the "puttytel.exe" file downloaded from the link above.
From the initial screen, enter in your IP Address from the ADB terminal in the box where it says "Host Name (or IP Address).
Enter "2222" without quotes in the box listed as Port.
Make sure the connection type has Telnet selected and then click "Open" at the bottom.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
A PuTTYtel window will open up where we will enter the code JCase provided.
***STEP THREE***
In JCase's video he types in the line:
Code:
telnet {IP Address} 2222
We don't need that step as we already connected it through Step 2.
Proceed to run the exploit:
Code:
dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto
After the first run, it will say to "ADB Reboot" your phone.
Open up the ADB window from earlier and run the command:
Code:
adb reboot
This will reboot the phone.
***STEP FOUR***
Because PuTTYtel is connecting to the phone to run the exploit, rebooting the phone closes the connection. We need to redo Steps 1-3, running the Cydia Impactor, opening PuTTYtel and connecting it using the IP, and running the same exploit command. The phone reboots itself after the second exploit command so no need to adb reboot again.
***STEP FIVE***
Checking for root. After the exploit has been ran three times, go back to the ADB window and type the following:
Code:
adb shell su -c "id"
If you get the return message saying:
Code:
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
You're done and rooted! Go install SuperSu from the Play Store and make sure to throw a couple bucks JCase's way for making this great tool.

Also, for those of you reading on rooting and not really confident enough to use adb I suggest this .exe.

Its a minimal adb shell. Simple and easy to use, just install the program on a windows machine, open it up, plug in the phone, start your commands.

I don't believe there is. If you don't want to use xposed framework and get extended power options, then the only options to get to recovery (that I know if) are
1) power off> volume down with power> volume down to recovery> power up to select.
2) Adb reboot recovery

Can you boot into Download Mode? (Hold power button until device turns completely off, then quickly hold Power+Vol Up to get into download mode.) Do this while device is unplugged so it doesn't try to reboot instantly normally.
If you can do that, then you will have to follow the recovery steps for Sprint LS980. Give me a moment to find it.

Can you boot into Download Mode? (Hold power button until device turns completely off, then quickly hold Power+Vol Up to get into download mode.) Do this while device is unplugged so it doesn't try to reboot instantly normally.
If you can do that, then you will have to follow the recovery steps for Sprint LS980. Give me a moment o find it.

To do that you have to go back to 2012 on the computer and download a ton of sketchy files and I don't have a username and password for that thingy. It's not my computer so I don't want to mess it up haha. Thanks for the reply!

How do I use ADB to sideload on a PC? I can't find the binaries for PC except for the SDK and it's a really big file. What command do I do to sideload? Thanks for the quick reply

Thankyouthankyouthankyou so much XD. I'm trying it now, I'll let you know if it works. Do you use Command Prompt for ADB or some other application?
