The hidden mode of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich called recovery should allow you to perform hard reset, wipe cache partition or Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update. So follow the steps of recovery mode tutorial:

- In the next step press and hold together the Volume Down + Power button for a couple of seconds.
- Congratulations! You should be right now in the expected mode.
- You can use the Volume buttons to scroll options and press the Power key to confirm.

I have an Asus TF101 tablet running Android ICS. I am trying to image the entire internal flash file system onto my desktop via adb. The problem is that the image I am obtaining appears to be corrupted:
On my desktop I am using Ubuntu 12.10:
I am then trying to use this image with:
Unfortunately testdisk finds only nonsensical partition data even using a deep search. Attempting to list any of the files contained in these admittedly non-sensical partition results in a corrupt filesystem error.
Even when trying to read out only a single partition, e.g.
the resulting partition image seems corrupted. Trying to mount via a loop device fails with corrupt filesystem errors. Running fsck on the image floods me with non-ending file-system errors.

Any hint on what I am doing wrong here?

The filesystem should be unmounted when executing a dump for best results.

For one thing, the shell on the Android side is converting LF to CR-LF -- hex 0A to 0D 0A. Various workarounds are to undo the change by streaming through
sed
or perl
, processing the file after, or installing stty
on the Android device and using stty raw
as part of the adb shell
command.Community♦
