[Thunderbolt Android Development] MicroChip:
Ok I'm sure I'm confused. This was so easy on the droid and now I'm like a n00b again...

I went in to ROM Manager, dl'd this ROM, told it to backup my rom, wipe and wipe dalvik and install. It did. When it rebooted, it came up like a new ROM, but still had bitbop and blockbuster and all the other stuff I was hoping it got rid of (debloated?). Do I need to manually format system or something?

Thanks!

Was running BAMF 1.5 remix since day 1 of release, and now am on BAMF 1.6.1 Remix. Love both and both are flawless in central Florida (4G area!) with great battery life. Couldn't be happier.

I have searched for an hour without results, so here is my question: in BAMF 1.5 remix, I had 4 options when changing wallpapers: "Wallpapers", "HTC Wallpapers", "Live Wallpapers", and "Gallery".

Now on BAMF 1.6.1 Remix, I lost "Wallpapers" and my favorite individual wallpaper which is a street with streaking brake lights and a tree on the horizon (not the default BAMF remix wallpaper). Anybody know where I can find it??

I went so far as to look all through framework_res.apk in WinZip and all kinds of google searches, but I fail.

Thanks.

Yeah i want the bottom bar back and app drawer. For some reason im really liking the stock htc theme.. So is there like an apk for the stock rosie bar?

Same here, I forgot to mention this earlier...along with my notification bar issues, all of the verizon bloatware is still installed which I thought should have been removed from the ROM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] evolutioncsr:
You should of probably went with the normal Das Bamf 1.6 instead of the remix.

The Remix is basically themed Das Bamf with few minor changes at least according to the OP.

The NTE(non themed) version of Das Bamf can be found here:

Alright thanks! One question though, is the kernel on the normal das bamf the same as the remix? I dont want to loose my great battery life.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Should

Should look like this.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] evolutioncsr:
Yes the Kernel is the same. You could always flash another kernel even if it was not though. Is just like flashing a rom. In CWM even faster, a lot smaller file :)

Can't seem to get individual customized ringtones to stick.

For instance, the default ringtone is: Crazy Game of Poker by OAR.

Girlfriend's ringtone is: There Goes My Baby by Usher.

When the g/f calls, OAR plays instead.

Weird mine locks on in seconds almost instantly. Installed 1.6 over 1.5 only wiping cache and dalvik cache. Then 1.6.1 patch.

Do you have all 3 Location ON settings checked in Settings-Location? Just curious.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dabuck:
I'm seeing the same behavior. I had three reboots in the span of 30 minutes driving in an area where there is a dead spot. At home or work, I don't have any reboots. I can't remember if I was on cdma auto prl or cdma + lte/evdo auto.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] afleaddog:
Yes, I have all three checked. wiped all data from 1.5 to 1.6 installed 1.6.1 over 1.6. Maybe its my loc...will GPS status or GPS test apps help troubleshoot?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jawa5636:
All three checked for me as well.

Whats the deal with the gpsconfig file?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] evolutioncsr:
I would definitely try to get a lock first outside and use GPS Test(available in market) by chartcross limited. Then test Google Maps or any applications you may be having problem with to rule out the application.

I would then close any apps using GPS and open back up see if locks quickly. If it does reboot and try again.

Might also want to uncheck and re check those GPS sources in settings.

You could edit the file also but It should work fine out of the box. Mine does.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] afleaddog:
I just edited the gpsconfig...to us.pool. Rebooting and crossing fingers

insane battery...almost 12 hrs and still at 56 percent. i will defdinitely stay with this rom. no force close yet. gps locks in seconds...i think this rom loves the LPP launcher. i am so scared to make any changes including the patch...i will leave it this way until i encounter a problem. thanks and for sure i will make some donation soon as i get some xtra $$.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] HashTagHell:
Can somebody tell me where to find this file? I need to try this.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] afleaddog:
I used Astro to find it. I did a search in the system folder and found it there
[Thunderbolt Android Development] evolutioncsr:
/system/etc/gps.conf
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djbeanpole:
I have all 3 services checked as well. When I open google Maps it finds me instantly. However, when I open up Navigation it takes almost a minute to figure out where I am :(

First user of the rom, Noticed during the start up of a call it states no sim card found, yet the card is inserted. Calls complete, just thought I would pass it along.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] t3t5u0:
Check your local state laws before using call recorder functionality

FYI, be advised that Call Recorder functionality without prior consent of all parties may constitute a criminal or civil legal infraction in some states. Some states require 'one-party' consent (the person with Call Recorder) and some states requires 'all parties' to provide prior consent. I'd check your state laws before you decide to get some impromptu crazy calls from your ex-gf or former boss.... just a heads up before someone gets into legal trouble ala Linda Tripp/Lewinsky style.

Amazing job Adrynalyne, Butch and Trident on this rom... Running great with no issues yet, my first GPS lock was almost instant!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] evolutioncsr:
On another helpful note :) Did you happen to change the kernel? I believe call recording needs to be enabled on the kernel.

I'm looking at it right now because I copied it to my SD card and opened it via notepad.

I'm assuming I change:

[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
Anybody experiencing this? It's mostly games, they just quit on their own as if i'm pressing the home button, then when i start them back up, they start up normally but not where i last was.

Also no force close error.

I want to know if it is just me, then i'll do a factory reset, but just want to double check before i go through all that.
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
So i did a factory reset and it fixed it for a day or two but now back to the same thing :(

games just quit on their own. Some games you can play for a while till it happens, some almost instantly.

The 2 most problematic games are

Airport Mania

Gun Bros.

If anyone is running streakdroid 1.9.0 and plays those games and they work fine, can you please post here.

Thank you.

Is there some way to change them to default without flashing with sbf?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elitem0b:
Hey guys,

I've searched the forums to no avail regarding this.

I'm currently on a newer sense rom on my desire z: 1.82. Which means if I want to root I need to downgrade. Every guide I read always starts with: make a backup. Good idea, but all the "complete backup" tools (titanium backup, rom manager, ...) require root to do their work.

So how the hell can I get a complete system image (preferably all partitions) without root so I could later return to my current stock rom with all my settings? Clearly I seem to be missing something here. I tried to start rom manager and titanium backup with psneuter temp root but that didn't work either.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,

elitem0b
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koopabro:
You can't, actually.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elitem0b:
Well since there is no other answer yet I assume that you simply can't do it ... what a shame. Anyway, to answer my own question there is a way to at least back up the apps, settings and system apps.

In case anyone else may need this:

adb pull /system/app/ c:\backup\destination\system\app
adb pull /data/app/ c:\backup\destination\data\app
adb pull /data/data/ c:\backup\destination\data\data
adb pull /data/misc/ c:\backup\destination\data\misc

First line backs up system apps

Second line backs up custom apps

Third line backs up custom apps' data

Fourth line backs up settings (e.g. wifi settings)

I put the apps in exactly the same folder structure so I know what to restore to which location in case I want to.

PS: You end up backing up more than you are probably able to restore (e.g. system apps) but it can't hurt

Cheers,

elitem0b
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortlived:
You can use titanium backup after temp root. If gyou use the rage method there is very low risk of damaging anything or even try using visionary for temp root ONLY then delete it after your done backing up and getting work root. This will allow you to save apps and data. Looks like you figured out a way to save system data but I wouldn't bother if I were you. All your contacts are backed up on Google anyway. There's not a whole lot of data to save that's worth risking a brick after.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverwind:
Hi, I just finally managed to downgrade. Here is what I did to back up.

I used Astro to back up apps. I can easily restore apps after downgraded (but I have to firstly download Astro in order to restore apps)

Contact and calendar was backed up with Gmail.

Navigation map was saved in SD, so I didnt need to do anything.

But I lose my emails in hotmail account. I cant download the older mails (unlike GMAIL) :(

Now, my next step would be to gain permaroot ;)

Cheers...

Once rooting and flashing are complete how does one delete things they don't need?

I use dolphin and k9 so browser, gmail and email can go.

Wondering about rom manager, now that its business is complete can I delete it? It just complains about clockwork anyways.

Download Titanium backup (recommended), backup the apps that you don't want. Then uninstall them with Titanuim backup. That is the safest way I know and that is how I did it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil_chetcuti:
Thanks, titanium did the trick with only a single hiccup, and that was Rom Manager. Once I deleted the rom managers update, titanium did delete it.

I guess that's the end of the tweaking. This whole adventure with the 2708 port has been well worthwhile. I'm seeing my +15mb.

i believe the easiest way to delete system apps is using root explorer, which you can download from the market.

Its like a file manager but it gives much more options.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil_chetcuti:
I already have root explorer, first app I installed after rooting.

I did use it to delete cm wallpapers, it worked without errors but, I am not seeing the 3.5mbs I should have gained. Phone info's internal mem still shows 40mb, exactly the same as before the delete.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
Titanium is the best way I see so far. It also give you the option to back it up before uninstalling it, just incase you ever need the program to be reinstall. :)

I seen root explorer, it's just file manager that assist you in deleteing file. It works for its purpose, but I don't think it properly uninstall the apps. (I might be wrong though)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil_chetcuti:
You are right about titanium. I have used it to delete system apps before but I thought I'd get my hands dirty and work with the filesystem directly. Root explorer is handy for that with the r/o r/w toggle as well as showing full file permissions.

Anyways, what I did was watch the results of folders /data/apps and /system/apps when deleting. It became obvious that /system/apps are just that, system apps. /data/apps is also obviously the apps that I installed.

Armed with this, I simply deleted the unwanted apk from /system/apps.

File is gone, that is confirmed, but no space gain.

Does the memory need to be reindexed? Perhaps one of Amon's wipe functions?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
Amon RA does have the wipe functions. I go to it and wipe status, etc... ever so often just to keep my G1 in top shape.

The way I do it is, to go to manage apps, select the apps that I wants to uninstall. Clear all cache etc... then uninstall (delete) the apps. This way it will also clear the data for that apps, since those cache data sometime take up so much room. Sometime it's not the apps itself that take room, it's the cache data that eat up your spaces. Especially when it reside in your internal spaces. ;)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleeepy2:
you can also use SystemApp Remover it's on the market (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.danesh.system.app.remover&feature=search_result)

where are you looking to see if you have more memory?

If you delete system apps it doesn't really give you more space as you can't install an app to this location normally.

To see the space open terminal and type df this will break it down for each partition on your phone. check the system partition before and after deleting the apps.

The only way to actually get and use more internal space is with Custom MTD. check Firerats post (link in my sig).
