Did the same thing with my tablet got it back in 2 days with honeycomb and 3g back

But my tablet was not bricked i stocked into official usa ics firmware using region changer but told them tht the fault is with their tablet and got it cbanged back

And I think I wudnt do the same mistake by flashing it again but will wait for official uk release of ics with 3g n wifi

Hi,

If you have flashed prerooted custom ICS, then you should have init.d directory, in default location which is /system/etc/init.d

If you dont have it, then you can try to make wipe,
or try to use init.d function in AiO tool.
AiO init.d wasnt tested with ICS, because I already got init.d in my custom.

Hi,

A few days ago i tried to downgrade from rooted ICS to stock HC. I did as condi sugested but i got a "...sku" error.

I then thougt that probably the error is due to the fact that i have a SGPT113/S (Portuguese 16 Gb 3G), and que file that's outhere is US WiFi.
If someone has or now where i can find the portuguese FW please tell me.

I still have a strange situation: my phone is rooted (tested with several apps), but when i try to run the root option (just because!) the AiO says that the tab is non-rootable. But i managed to run the USB mass storage option in AiO...

Condi... i supose that as soon as a 3G FW is available you will dive into it deeply, right?

Condi..I used your tool to install the rescue-backdoor but my tablet no longer boots. It looks like build.prop was unable to be created properly (it is zero bytes). When I try and re-run it it now says su binary not found...I can run adb shell to view my tablet...and I can see su in \bin however trying to run it causes a segmentation fault?

Looking in /data/local/tmp I can see the original build.prop and see that there is a new.build.prop file in there as well that is zero bytes. So I guess it copied the zero byte new.build.prop file to my system folder and now I can't boot.

Any thoughts on how I can fix this?

su will segfault in recovery. Run /system/bin/tempsu.

su will segfault in recovery. Run /system/bin/tempsu.

Thanks! Learned something and was able to fix my build.prop and boot again

Run adb shell and type:

getprop | sku

And I will give you proper file for fw downgrade.
As far as rooting is concerned - ICS is not-rootable! Root can be only achieved via AiO custom fw prerooting

Thanks! Learned something and was able to fix my build.prop and boot again

Im glad that your device is ok

Any chance we get Canadian or All region pre-rooted dear condi?!!!

There should be no problem with making custom prerooted rom with current AiO version
Just use canadian rom instead of US ICS.

How can I use Canadian ROM? There is a file for us to download in the op post, where can I find Canadian?

I think if I start the OTA process I can't stop it from installing it and use the downloaded file!

And how can I find out it has root for sure before I flash it to the tablet?

Sorry for NOOB questions!

Start downloading OTA on device, after downloading finish run Root Explorer, go to /cache/ota/ and copy update zip from there. DONT INSTALL IT! Make it custom prerooted, when you will finish creating custom_decrypted_update.zip download ext2explore app on pc, unzip your custom fw, and open system.img - go to /system/bin/ and check if there is 'su' and 'tempsu' binary file in there. Thats all.

AiO 2.9 is really not liking my tablet. Not sure why but all the functions seem to run into errors. For example...trying to install the latest USB Mass Storage support yields the following errors. The same thing happened when I tried to installed the rescue-backdoor...errors about commands not found.

I have SU and the latest busybox installed. Confused...

[*] Device found.
[*] Remounting /system as rw...
sh: cut: not found
sh: grep: not found

[*] DONE. UMS mode installed. Shortcuts added to home (in Sony Launcher).
On first use - please accept SuperUser privileges request.

If you are using other launcher, then just add GScript Widget,
and choose each script for external and internal SD.
To run UMS mode there is need of one reboot.
UMS mode will gonna work until you will change USB mode to MTP.
To reapply it - just use home shortcuts.

[*] Rebooting...
[*] Press any key to exit.

May i ask how do you do this? I ran into the same problem

 

[Rumball]

Ok...try this:

adb shell

/system/bin/tempsu

Your adb shell prompt should have changed from $ to # meaning that you now have superuser rights

busybox mount

Look for the line with "/system" in it. It should start with something like /dev/block/mmcblk0p3. If it starts with something else then replace "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3" in the command below with what your device says.

busybox mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system

rm /system/build.prop

cp /data/local/tmp/old_build.prop /system/build.prop

exit

adb reboot

 

[madchicosmina]

Run adb shell and type:

getprop | sku

And I will give you proper file for fw downgrade.
As far as rooting is concerned - ICS is not-rootable! Root can be only achieved via AiO custom fw prerooting

...........................................................................................................................................................
i inserted the code and the result is...

/system/bin/sh: sku: not found

re: you guys missing root with ICS, if you're anything like me, half the point of root is titanium

But did you all know that in ICS you can do basically the same thing via usb debugging and adb? Taken from HTC One X forums

If, like me, you're moving over to the One X from another ICS phone but don't want to root until it doesn't require htcdev.com, you can still backup/restore all your user apps and data from your old device to the One X without Titanium (which needs root) or MyBackup Pro (which costs money).

Firstly, you'll need to install the android sdk to get adb. Once you have that, open a command prompt and cd to the adb folder, eg

Code:
cd c:\android-sdk\platform-tools
Then run the following command

Code:
adb backup -apk -all -nosystem -f c:\backup.ab
(where -all is every app, -apk means to also include the apks and -nosystem ignores the system apps and data)

You'll need to confirm the backup on the device itself for it to start and, optionally, set an encryption password for the backup.


One it's finished, plug the One X in, enable 'USB Debugging' in Settings -> Developer Options and then run

Code:
adb restore c:\backup.ab
...then, on the One X, enter your encryption password (if specified during backup) and confirm. Once it's finished, all the apps and data from your old phone will now be restored on the One X


Note: this feature of adb only works on ICS so you can't backup from previous android versions (although i haven't actually tried).

If the backup option doesn't exist in your adb, make sure you have the latest Android SDK
