Backup rom - Milestone 2 Android Development

I have rooted my M2 and i made mistake and uninstalled some system apps. I fought wipe would help but instead that it is worst. I don't have maybe some app and after wipe i see only unlock screen and can't do anything. Also i can't get to system files because wipe turned-off debugging mode in usb connection.
So I need some backup rom(Europe/UK/DE) with original system applications and information how to restore it. It is possible?

you can use rsd lite and one of these firmware
http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone2

I used second from up because this link only works
It is DE beacause german is default, but i had just the same.
For others:
1. Power off phone
2. Up (on keyboard) + power button to open bootloader
3. Connect with usb cable
4. Start flashing
Thank you for help

The BRAZILIAN link is down. Error 404.
Someone knows where to download?

I just relised that in second rom buttons Y and Z are replaced so I found how to rapair it:
1. First you need root your phone ex. with z4root (go to google)
2. Install some manager with root acces ex. Super Manager
3.This is default file /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl (for all devices) with key mapping but in my milestone 2 it was another with name umts_milestone2-keypad.kl
4.We have to replace Y and Z in this file.
5.ATTENTION!!! IF you copy file and then paste and raplace it with edited file it my have difrent acces permission so be sure that this file has rw-r--r-- If you dont set first rw like ---rwxrwx phone won't be able to read file and all buttons won't be working(bottom screen buttons too!!!, only power will work)ATTENTION!!! but don't wory i was be able to set permission without using any key but only screen
6.Reboot phone

Hi,
maybe its possible to boot into recovery mode and restore your phone back.
I think following will help you to boot into recovery mode :
Swith off the device.
Then hold trackpad+vol down and power on but dont release the keys
I think the folders are switched to original after recover, hope so.
Regards
NetJay

you have to flash a rom using cwm!
btw please post questions in general section not the dev section
ok well if a mod could move this thread...i understand how to flash it what i dont get is why i have to modify the binary to run cwm and why android commander wont run to push the file
You need to modify the binary because a stock recovery can't flash unsigned roms, which any rom not from samsung is. Android commander won't push that file because system needs to be remounted as read/write, rather than read only.
You can use my modified oneclickroot script to push the correct modified binary and install the update.zip to get you into CWM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15831175&postcount=124
you have to mod it to get into the right recovery and just use root explorer
download:
http://www.krylon360.com/file_host/sk4g/recovery.zip (This is the recovery.)
http://www.krylon360.com/file_host/sk4g/update.zip (this is the update)
http://www.4shared.com/get/HpENkmN8/...rer_v2124.html (this is root explorer.)
open the first file on your computer and take out the recovery file inside it and place it on the sd card.
place the second file on the sd card
and install the last file.
now open root explorer scroll down and find sdcard,
now open it and find recovery and long press on it. hit copy. now hit the back button once.
now find system. open it.
find bin. open it.
hit on the top mount r/w
hit paste and overwrite the file.
next, power down the device and instead of powering on regularly, press volume down+ power button you should be in the recovery mode.
if it is blue then hit install packages,
if it is red you should be good to go.
NOW YOU HAVE A CWM
thank you i was following another set of directions which apperently were wrong

[Q] Windmobile Huawei u8651 (Astro / T-mobile Prism)

Could someone please send me a message or reply in where I can find an original backup nandroid backup of the Windmobile Huawei u8651 or T-mobile Prism 2.3.
I was able to root the phone but forgot to do a nandroid backup in recovery before flashing another rom.
Wind Mobile u8651
The guide below will give you root access to your phone. Before you do anything make sure you back up all your photos, music and anything you might need. You will also need a SD card inside the phone.
- Download the file from this site: depositfiles com/files/83naetpa4
- Extract the file to a folder on your desktop
- Turn off your U8651 and take out the battery and reinsert it
- Hold on "Volume down" and "Power Button" for 15 seconds
- connect your U8651 to your computer, let system discover the device (not too worry if it fails)
- Go into the exact folder and double click on "Recovery.bat" This will install Clockworkmod 4.0
- When you're in the clockworkmod recovery the volume buttons are to toggle and the power button is to select.
In order to have a clean back up of your system you need to select "-wipe data/ factory reset" This will restore you phone to factory settings.
- Toggle down to "-backup and restore"
- Select "-backup" and follow the prompt
- This will create a nandroid backup image of your current system and will be saved on your sd card.
- transfer the contents of your backup to your desktop computer from /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup
- zip backup folder and upload to a site, zippyshare.com or mediafire.com and forward it to me privately or on this link.
If I can get the backup nandroid I am willing to post more stuff I found off the net concerning this phone.

Anyone have crazypig's update.zip ?
Crazypig's file hosting site, depositfiles, is redirecting his updater.zip link (after making you wait 60sec) to a "connection refused" error ...
If anyone else has already downloaded the updater.zip and can help out, please let me know.

I downloaded it and extracted but does not show me the update file in it. I'm a bit of a noob and don't' know why its not there. Also I HAVE NOT yet tried to recover back to factory. I am still trying to research how to remove the CWM and place back to factory boot loader.

[Q] Multi-view Hack HELP!!

Can someone help me out with the Multi-view hack to add all apps?...I just used the editing method for adding all apps to the multi-view window. All the steps went fine, but now that I'm done I can't get Multi-view to work AT ALL! I enabled it, held the back button down over and over and it does absolutley NOTHING. I am on stock 4.1.1, rooted with unlocked bootloader and I have a nandroid backup that I made just before attempting this, but since everything else on my Note 2 is still working I'm waiting and hoping that someone out there knows what's going on and has a fix for it.
Here are the steps that I took:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Download modified odex file (multiwindow.zip) by hairdewx (mirror), and extract services.odex FlashBarService.odex files. After that copy both files into your device.
2. Get file manager app that can open the system apps, such as ES File Explorer or Root Explorer that can be found on Play Store.
3. Mount the system partition as Read/Write (R/W).Mount to R/W and Replace Files
4. Copy and replace “FlashBarService.odex” to “/system/app” folder, as well as “services.odex” to “/system/framework” folder. If you have difficulty to replace services.odex, reboot your device. In case you experiencing bootloop after replacing services.odex, then you need to pull out and reinsert the battery, if the bootloops remains, just flash the root image with ODIN to fix it.
5. Reboot your Galaxy Note II.
6. Open the file manager again, delete “com.sec.android.app.FlashBarService” from “/data/data” folder, then reboot once again.
7. (Optional) Open “/data/data” folder again, if you find the “/flashbar” folder, just delete it.
Now you should have been able to add any apps to the Multi Window bars on Verizon Galaxy Note 2, and also run two applications at the same time (MultiView). If you can’t find an edit button, it’s likely that you on 240 DPI, just switching back to 320 DPI, edit button will reappears.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's it. I did all of these steps with no problems but as mentioned, now I can't get Multiview to work at all. I have tried restarting several times and also did a battery pull but no luck. Please HELP!
Edited...PROBLEM SOLVED AFTER FACTORY DATA RESET. Thanks.

First Port to the Cube T7 Phablet.

After trying and trying and failing, I have finally figured out a way to port a rom to the Cube T7.
This has proven the only method (in my experience) to work. All the standard methods have failed
each time.
WARNING!!!!! THIS COULD BRICK OR DAMAGE YOUR PHONE
YOU ARE TRYING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE
FOR WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE!!!!
Things you need.
latest Spftool
and the Rom package
NOTE:You need to know that you can't just flash the package I put together. You will
need to use the TWRP recovery that comes in the package to transfer file from your external sd to
the system folder and so forth. Also the proper permission to set.
Step 1: Flashing the images.
I've already pulled the correct img from each folder and put it together for you.
The only thing that you will need to do is extract the folder and use the spf tool to
install the firmware.
Note** In order to keep the 3.97 app storage, I've had to make sure to use the
Spf tool to do a full format except for the bootloader.
Step 2: Repairing the Rom
In the rar package, I included all the files need to fix the rom so
it will work smoothly on your phone. The files can be located in
the "system" folder which will need to be copied to your external sdcard
At this point you will already have flash the images and turn on the phone.
You will notice that the after you turn it on, you will get a warning that says "Cpu overheating"
or at least to that affect. This is not true by the way, this is from the fact the tp settings are off
from the original rom. Either way the warning will force boot your phone which again is fine.
Once this happens you will need to go to recovery.
Once in recovery make sure that you go ahead and mount your
system partition.
With this done you will be able to go to /system/etc/.tp
This folder contains the files that control the thermal manager for
the rom. You want to delete this folder. YES DETELE IT!!!
Once deleted, go to the system folder that you should have copied to your
external Sdcard. You need to copy /system/etc/tp to the exact location that you
just deleted the original.
Once you've done this you will need to set the permissions for the folder and the
files contained. The folder needs to be set to 0755 and the files inside need to be set to 0644.
Once done its best to go ahead and use the recovery to flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip to root your device before
restarting. Once restarted you will need to use root explorer or es explorer root function to
copy all the files to there correct locations and set their permissions. Each file is in its corresponding
folder as it should be in the system partition. All you will need to do is copy and past from the folder on the external and
paste to the same folder in the system partition. For those that may not know, all files will be set to 0644/rw--r--r-- and folders that you copy over will be 0755/rwxr-xr-x (if your using root explorer, just un check the group and others on the "Write" permissions.
Whats not working?
I can't figure out how to get the camera to working.
I've used standard tuts to try and copy the right files or libs
but not luck as of yet. If anyone figures out a way please share!!!
Also, if you have the fold case, the screen does not come on when you
open the fold. Also when double tapping the screen, this does not take it out of sleep
mode. From what I've seen those are the only things that dont work. If you see something
else, please report it to this thread.
Also in the package you will find the Carliv 3.3 recovery version for our phone.
Thanks to kushyree from needrom.com for building it for us.
He also has been assisting me in trying to port other roms to our phone. We owe him a lot of thanks.
Let me know if you guys need any help with this. I will do the best I can to try and help out. Enjoy.
