So I backed up my phone after I found it wouldn't sync to save my contacts and all. Bricked my phone, got a replacement. NOW THE PROBLEM is that when I restore, my device lock comes up but the code (which I remember) doesn't work.
Is there a file I can NOT restore so I can get the contacts and rest back?
Man I miss my Treo, Palm Desktop was beautiful. Microsoft SUCKS
Oops. You're going through something which I too have been through. But,now there is a solution. Run that backup file exe. Go to 'tools'(right soft key)//advance options//tick 'dont restrore password'
Do tell me if u r successful in getting ur stuff back
PS: was going to sleep and posted this via wifi. really felt that u r in trouble

Ok, see once I run it, turn the phone on, the device lock comes up and I'm stuck. The only options it gives is to cancel. How many times can I put this thing back to factory settings before I brick it? Walk me through this like I'm stupid! LOL I thank you for responding, seriously!
After I this, I gotta do the memory increase... grrrr

You wont be bricking the phone that way at all Do a forced hardreset(both softkeys+softreset button)
Now, follow these steps
1)click on the backup exe file
2)go to tools>dont restore password
3)also uncheck stop all processes
4)dont go in for 'full backup'. Do a custom restore and select only PIM and my documents from it.
you can always install the programs after that because IMHO the PIM data is far more important
keep us updated
THANK YOU!!!!

Chick be dying without them numbers ya dig? Oh my calendar. I will be back this up to my storage card EVERY WEEK or day if need be, cause this was so wrong.
Now to fix the damn memory issue...I know the thread is up and they say it is good...
Glad to know that it worked for you

hi i am also using htc herald, i just flashed my ROM and the new rom is working fine. However i tried to backup my stuffs using spb backup, and i chose full restore(which including system setting may be) and since then my phone just wont boot up, only 1 screen showing smart mobility is appearing constantly. Do this have anything to do with me flashing the phone? And what are the solutions can i try? Thanks a lot

SPB backup doesnt let you upgrade/downgrade between ROMs. To be on the safe side, just restore PIM+my documents after ROM upgrade.
Follow the steps exactly the same way I've listed in my previous post

Install ADP1.1 JFv1.41. It will allow you to skip registration and to do it later over wifi
what is the procedure to install ADP1.1 JFv1.41 I have just downloaded rightly it but I don't know how to install can show it you me all those that it is necessary to install it
The instructions are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3219972&postcount=1
JFv1.41 can be installed in the usual way. Save the zip file to your sdcard named update.zip, boot into recovery mode (home + power), and then press alt+s. If you are switch between versions, e.g. from RC30 to ADP1, you must also do a wipe in recovery mode (alt+w). This will clear all your data/settings/apps, and you will have to re-register once it boots back up. If you are staying on the same build, i.e. from JFv1.31 RC30 to JFv1.41 RC30, then you shouldn't have to do a wipe.

But you also need:
Note: To install these updates, you need to have a recovery image that uses test keys. If any of the following are true, you most likely have a recovery image that uses test keys
* you have installed my modified recovery image in the past
* you have an ADP1
* you currently have one of my modified firmwares installed

I've done a lot of searching online but couldn't find a solution. Something happened on my S5 and now when it boots, it shows a unlocked padlock and says "Custom" underneath that and goes to a screen that says "System software not authorized". I searched online and tried all the solutions (going to recovery mode, going to download mode, hitting volume down when it boots up, etc) but none of it works.
This is the only success I had: I installed the phone drivers and Odin3 3.0.7 and then tried using a recovery rom from this website, but it failed to write in Download mode. I was then going to try using the stock ROM to flash it, but I'm wondering, would that erase all the data on the phone? My phone model is SM-G900V and the SKU is SMG900VZWV, thanks in advance!
My entire goal is just to get to the pictures on the phone. Is there some way to do that? Even if I was able to get into the home screen once, I would move the files onto the microSD card and be all set. Please help! I'd really like to be able to save my pics from over 2 years!
At least can someone tell me if I get the stock ROM and flash it in Download mode, will that wipe the data on the phone?

It shouldn't, at least for me, I always keep my data when I do this. Where are your photos saved?

The pics are on the internal storage of the phone. I'm going to get the stock ROM and try flashing it. My only question now is the stock ROM is like 1.7gb. The internal memory on the phone was low because of all the pics and stuff. So when I write the stock ROM to the phone, isn't it going to overwrite some stuff? I'm only interested in the pics.
Thanks for the reply!
Hi Everyone, I am new here. Please let me know if I violate any of the rules here.
HELP! I have Redmi Note on Chinese firmware. Last week it crashed, doing a factory reset and now asking for Mi Account password in which I really forgot, It has been 3 years since I purchase and register.
I have been trying quite a lot of things.
1. Attempt password as I remember [FAILED]
2. Try to wipe all the user data [FAILED: still asking mi account password]
3. Try to flashboot [FAILED: cannot unlock because of I don't have mi account]
4. Try to flash using custom mod [FAILED: No USB Debugging Enabled]
Now I have run out of an idea.
Could you please help me a way to fix this? I need to use my phone again.
Thank you for your help.
Up
UP UP UP UP!
Please help.
What do you mean by saying "asking Mi account password"? You mean the screen lock passcode?
Normally Vol Up+Power button will bring you to Recovery, in recovery you can clear all data, after that, your phone should be like new, without asking you anything.

What's your phone model number? I can find many models on official MIUI Chinese website, including previous builds, like 6.9. But I can only help you further if I know your model number.

Hello Everyone,
A guy I met on telegram has been able to take a tarp backup for Oreo soak test when official Oreo comes out it will be a lot easier to install than this . This is a twrp back up taken .
STEPS:
1.Download https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15U7nnQaST4jf-vWP356aKflTrVGvbCIt?usp=sharing
2. Extract if Google made it a zip
3. Copy to an SD Card
4. Insert the SD card and boot to twrp
5. Go to restore
6. Go to the directory where you copied the files
7. Restore the OEM , SYSTEM , BOOT partitions
8. Go to wipe , Wipe dalvic cache , cache , data and internal
9. Reboot system
TIPS:
Don't moan about fingerprint sensor not recognised we know it's something to do with bootloader version
Don't restore boot logo
Make sure if you download the files individually you make a sub folder on internal or SD card called TWRP/BACKUPS/$
$= Backup name
Thanks to @Ukolino for the awesome backup
You're a crack

Sim , sorted
Here's a screenshot for proof
Resolveu amigo obrigado,!
So, the rom works everything except the fingerprint reader due to the bootloader version or what is the exact error? And what type of twrp do I need to use for the restore? Thanks for all. You are a crack
If anyone has issues unlocking (I wouldn't know since I haven't tried it), boot into twrp and go to the file manager, then delete the following file: root/data/system/locksettings.db
From there you can set up your own pin and fingerprint.
Only the fingerprint does not work? everything else yes?

Yes, everything else is working perfectly
Which twrp do I need guys? 32 or 64 bit? Thanks for your efforts!
Everything is fine, except when I make a call, the NET is dropped , because when the call is made within 2 seconds a message appears that says, you can not use the network at this time, probe going back to any other CUSTOM ROM and the call works well, but in the case of this ROM does not work, please have some solution?
since it works very well for me.
Thank you.

Configure ur apns search ur provider APN on Google and put it in manually these are soak tests therefore it's not perfect
I already did it, but it still totally fails, what I like is that people work at 100% and I like people, but hey, this is the first time that happens to me, even thanks, I will try to go back to sotck directly, and install direct by ABD update, maybe there if it works well.
