Open the app and select Backup/Restore and long press on the system data you want to backup. You should exercise caution and not backup system data that will potentially disrupt another ROM. Wi-Fi Access Points, User Dictionary etc can all be found in there. Hope this helps. :)
[Desire General] mistaliu:
Or the way I did it was just go under the backup/restore tab and scroll till you find what you want to backup ie. Bookmarks, wifi, etc then you are just backing up what you want and need

I have a question regarding Titanium that I hope you can help with...

I've just upgraded to the Gingerbread RUU, so I lost root and can't get it back, or frankly want to have it back, but I've backed up a number of apps with Titanium Backup, and is there any way to reinstall them?

They're all saved to my SD card, and Titanium Backup obviously refuses to work.

I can't and don't want to get root back, so is there any way to manually use these backups, or use them with another program?
[Desire General] Kalavere:
You can recover the apps by searching the TitanuimBackup folder and extracting the APKs from the Zip files. It's obviously not possible to recover the data as it's zipped up in a tarball and it requires Superuser rights to access if using Titanium, however I don't know that it's not possible to manually replace the data. If you unzip the tarball and extract the folder to your desktop. If it's the BBC News app for example the folder should look like this after you extract it.

'Data/Data/bbc.mobile.news.uk/cache

-----------------------------------/databases

-----------------------------------/files

-----------------------------------/shared_prefs'

I don't know if you can access Data/Data from the phones internal memory without root, I am using Root Explorer. Try with Astro, I am guessing you can read/write to Data/Data without having S-Off as I am not getting prompted to switch to R/W to delete files (I have Root and S-Off).

If you can read and write to Data/Data without root and S-Off you can manually copy and paste the data over after installing the app, it will take ages to do if you've got any number of apps and I am not ever sure it will work, but I suppose it's worth a go. :)

I hope this makes sense, it makes semi sense to me as I read it back!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicon2k:
Hi

Apologies if this has been posted before. I recently flashed my phone with gingerbread (JVK) and since then, the USB charging have been more then a little bit screwy.

Usually i have my phone plugged into my PC while i am work. At some point during the day i will get the message telling me that its finished charging. If i unplug it at this point the battery will instantly drop to between 70 and 80 percent, sometimes it goes as low as 50%!!!! If i plug the phone back in it will continue charging for a while and then i will get another message telling me that the battery is at 100%. If i unplug it then it still drops, but to a higher percentage. I am able to get the battery to 99% by plugging it in and unplugging it a number of times.

The odd thing is that if i charge it from mains, it goes to 100% and stays there the first time.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pennzoilgtr:
somehow same issue for me for what ever gingerbread (jv1/jvk/jvb) i have use.

but mine is different, if i got it unplug immediately after it saids "full charged" it will shows 100%.

BUT if i leave the charger on after it saids "full charged" for another few more hrs say 6 hrs, after unplugging.. it will immediately drop to 90% or even less some time.

well for js5/7/8 don't have such issue, that means after i leave the charger plug for overnight even its already full charged, after unplugging it still shows 99-100% !

wondering if any jv1/k/b user encounting this same issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virnik0:
If you are rooted, then delete battery stats, shutdown your phone, and leave it on the charger till it is 100% full. Then leave in on the charger again, start your phone, and delete battery stats again. Reboot your phone, and you should be ok.

For the second part, in which your phone after fully charged and left on charger lost some percentage after unplugging, it seems that Gingerbread stops charging once battery is full, and do not continue, even if charger is plugged in, once it'll lost some power. Some older phones does this (S45 for example).

Out of curiosity, what kernel are you using?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pennzoilgtr:
ok, as for battery stats i did the wipe, but i did not shutdown and do a full charge

as for kernel i did not really try on stock kernel though, i started using jv's series with CF's kernel or supercurio's hacked kernel.

maybe you are right that gingerbread stop charging after the battery is fully charged, but to my understanding i thought that is supposed it run on a/c once its fully charged? leaving the battery disconnect until you unplug it and it will starts to use the battery.

for froyo wise i presume it runs on a/c while leaving the battery disconnected, after overnight of full charged the phone is cool and don't feel like the battery is still "charging" after it reaches 100%
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rinl:
I had this problem too when i was with xxjvk. batterystats.bin was always automatically deleted by system once charger was connect/disconnect (couldnt remember...).

if the charger was unplugged right after fully charged notification, the phone worked perfectly fine and battery life was much better than with xsjw8..

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pennzoilgtr:
Ok seems like jvb doesn't solve the issue... I'm on goatrips's jvb at the moment. I got the make sure that I unplug immediately after it said full charged otherwise the percentage would drop like 10-20% if I leave it connected overnight.

Wondering how come there is so many jvk/jvb tester/users around but seems no one mention about it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicon2k:
Thanks for your reply but i have already tried this.

It also does not explain why it is fine charging from mains but not USB.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a9402169:
Notice that. Not sure whether its a bug. When it finishes charging, the sgs operate naturally and doesn't preserve the battery like it use to in the previous fw. So it drops immediately as the phone is disconnected. If the screen is left on during charging, it is a problem...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenwmitchell:
Anything ever come out of this? I'm using Serendipity VII for Cappy based of jvb. I'm seeing this regardless of the type charger I use. Once it hits 100%, the battery continues to show 100% until I remove the charger. Then it shows what I assume is the amount of battery left after powering the phone from the point it reached a full charge to the present. If I remove it immediately after full charge is reached, it reflects that. If I leave it on the charger for hours, it immediately drops reflecting the time spent since full charge.
[About XDA developers] zimbardo.ea:
Hi all,

Since January, I am a regular reader of xda-forum galaxy s and its subforums. First of all I want to thank you all for your great work. It helped me a lot. :D

I would appreciate though if the forums could be more fine-grained like for example that in the section "Questions & Answers" there would be subfolders for "kernels", "roms" etc., and that related threads could be found in there and only there. I also suggest to do this for every section of the galaxy s forum. I think this would give the forums a little bit more structure and newbies would not get clobbered over the head with tons of threads. I know that people should search the forums with their specific questions, but it would be easier to begin with xda and maybe this would even curtail the flood of posts. By the way, this holds also for the other device specific forums :)

Thanks.
[About XDA developers] pulser_g2:
The trouble with this is that huge numbers more forums just give us WAY more to move around.

The trouble is that people who are unsure just post everywhere instead of posting once somewhere wrong :(

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrebbitt:
Can anyone provide me a link or hook me up with the update file for Android 2.2 OS? I've searched and have not been able to find it... and Google doesn't seem to make it available.

Gingerbread is glitchy on my phone and rooting it has not resolved the issues (camera won't work, black screen locks me out of phone randomly or post phone call), so I would like to revert back to Froyo 2.2 to see if that fixes everything as I'm fairly confident, I didn't have these issues while running 2.2

Below are the details of my phone and what I'm currently running. Would I have to wipe the phone, install 2.2 then flash cynogen 7 again or can I manually install 2.2 and Cynogen will remain intact?

I just really need to find the Androis 2.2 OS file.

I appreciate the help.

Thank you in advance

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lippol94:
Hello guys! :)

Let me introduce myself.

I'm lippol94, a young galaxy s user with a big hacking passion! I started using non-stock Samsung ROMs weeks ago (CM7 and MIUI9000) and im very happy with them.

I get the point.

When i'm on MIUI9000 I so miss Invert Colors and UA options of CyanogenMOD browser. So, i managed to port UA menu settings, but I can't figure out how to implement the former.

If you don't know what i mean, i'm talking about the ability of CM browser to switch to black background and white text viewing mode.

Does anybody know which files are involved?

Thanks a lot in advance :)

P.S.1 : MIUI browser is just stock browser slightly modded to match MIUI style. Nothing more.

P.S.2: I know how to decompile, smaling and baksmaling so i just need to understand what lines should I add to stock browser to implement colours inversion feature]

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] padanfain:
I realize that there are multiple posts where this type of thing is mentioned in passing, but I wanted to ask specifically what type of SDCard is supported on the Xoom and what filesystem we should put on it.

It looks like Class 4 32GB sdcards are pretty common, but newegg also has a good price on a class 10. Which will actually work on the Xoom?

More importantly, I see all sorts of posts about sticking ext3 or ext4 on the sdcard. Sticking a journaling filesystem on flash memory doesn't seem like a wise move to me. SDCards, like all flash based memory, have a finite amount of writes available before they are toast. Journaling filesystems (such as ext3 and ext4) constantly write out their journals, which make them bad candidates for filesystems on flash memory and tend to journal the flash memory to death. Ext2, or FAT even, seem to be much better candidates -- any thoughts here?

Completely agree with you, after many complaints about android os from users of different manufacturers and using android 2.1/2.2 for tablets which is not made for, google realised that their OS reputation has been damaged.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Unrealwolf:
Possibility of announcement of a new version of smartphone Android on Google I/O in May is quite high. Therefore, Gingerbread will be a top-notch stuff only untill that moment. After that there will be no point in waiting new 2.3 firmwares, because we all will be waiting (hopelessly, most probably) Ice Cream Sandwich ones. So, enjoy JVB, it is not much worse than 2.2.1 fws, couple of bugs doesn't make it unusable.
