Nandroid backup is your lifesaver. Your spare tyre.

If u screw up your phone like when your phone goes into a boot loop, u can boot into Open Recovery, and restore a Nandroid backup of your phone to the state it was b4..b4 u did something that screw up your phone.

Another usage of Nandroid backup is when you are testing a few ROMs and still cannot decide which one to use. So u can restore a Nandroid backup of one ROM, test it and then if u change your mind, u can restore the Nandroid backup of the other ROM.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] rrohanjs:
so y do u need apps2ext then .. does the same thing ???
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pcphobic:
Nandroid is Nandroid and Ext 2 is Ext 2. They are both not related in their purpose.

Apps2ext is only for apps...it does not help you save the setup of the phone.

While a Nandroid backup will capture and save the current state of your phone and settings such as wallpaper, ringtone, sms, and apps and other personalised settings for that particular ROM that you are testing.

So if u screw up your phone or brick your phone, u only need to restore back a copy of your Nandroid backup without having to reflash the ROM and going thru the whole process of Gapps, setting up the phone..etc..etc..

A Nandroid backup will restore back your phone to the same state it was b4 u screw up your phone.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Numbaonei:
Hey guys im kinda new to android left apple since it got boring and so far loving android moto xoom n atrix.

My question is if there's anyway to get the latest psx emulator by zodttd or something to work with the atrix? I've installed it but im stuck on the bios part. I downloaded some bios n tried it but when I load a game it just crashes. Is there a specific bios needed for the atrix or does that not even make any sense?

Thanks in advance guys!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Numbaonei:
Damn auto correct
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] SuperDeform:
I think you would just have to get it and install it heard it wasnt in the market
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] klub242:
There's no Atrix/Android-specific bios, you just have to make sure you grab a proper working one and tell the emulator where it's stored.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Numbaonei:
Yea ill try that. Thankd
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Numbaonei:
Alright I got it working. Thought id share it. The latest version of psx4droid v 3.0.6 didn't work on my rooted 1.83 atrix so tried an older version of psx4droid v2 1.1.2 and it worked flawlessly. Just thought id share.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Chubby_Skunk:

[Epic 4G General] cds0699:
Honestly I love my epic, and when I bought it I needed/wanted the physical keyboard, but the more and more I use my phone, the less I use the physical keyboard. I am most likely going to buy the "Within" and keep my epic as a backup/second phone for a while.
[Epic 4G General] Esteway.619:
I want it lol.
[Epic 4G General] professoroak:
So stoked for this. Can't wait. Either this or the Nexus 3, but if the N3 doesn't have a sAMOLED+ display then it will most likely be the Within for sure.

Looks like I gotta start saving my pennies for a new phone without a new contract since mine doesn't expire till late 2012 :) but will be so worth it.

Ok Ill give you HDMI, I wish I had it on the epic, and dual core apps, they will be very few for the first year or more, most company's want to develop to a mass amount of compatible phones, that's where the money is. 1080p, I'm guessing you mean recording, no big deal, 720p is awesome on anything 42 inches and smaller, it even looks good on a 55 inch, (my older brother has one)...

Yeah I am really hoping everything is functional at launch, otherwise... meh ill probly still get it. I think the qwerty alienated a lot of people... hopefully people will look at specs of this vs the 3d, or at least the displays... I'll be happy if just a few of our epic devs work on it, but more is always better... drooling. Better start practicing with the onscreen KB...

[Epic 4G General] bgchz:
So Samsung gives apple the best displays and give their own consumers something 'almost as nice'?
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
Yes because Samsung have such a great track record with phones that have physical keyboards.

Moment = fail

Epic = keyboard fail. No fix eliminates it constantly skipping keys and it eats batteries because of the very nature of how it works. One rom came close to fixing it but not 100%

I hope he returns. Leaks help make ports!!!

I want leaks of ice cream for Evo 3d!!!

:(
[EVO 4G General] tallguywes:
I don't understand why stuff like this happens...Doesn't any of these involved companies realize that leaks, insider info, and other "rougue" information serve to generate hype, and therefor increased interest in their products? Developers are working on THEIR phones, creating and enhancing THEIR crappy code...People get excited on rom drops and RUU leaks!

My Evo currently runs a Sense 3.0 rom, and even though the battery live is pretty lacking (even on extended battery!), I have had the fortunate opportunity to experience what the Evo 3D is going to be like, which changed my mind from keeping the Evo to pre-ordering the 3D, even before I know when the thing actually drops!
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
There are negatives you're ignoring. How about the fact that some of those leaks have lead to phones bricking?
[EVO 4G General] xHausx:
I doubt they're worried about that, I'm sure they would be glad to brick a few phones through here as long as they catch it before it gets pushed out OTA. The whole having thousands upon thousands of people protesting and harassing you over a leaked ROM though. You already know it got the CEOs attention, and you can bet he's wanting to know why and how it happened.
[EVO 4G General] kingdazy:
couple things you might want to consider here:

the percentage of people that get excited about ROM leaks is a very very small part of their user base.

and like matty mentioned, an unfinished code leak with possible very serious bugs does nothing to further their cause, or improve the final product. especially when they are used as ports.

in relation to this, and furthermore, I think it is a great mistake to undervalue and diminish the talents and efforts of the people writing the original source code for these ROMs by calling the work "crappy".

without any insult intended to anyones work here, less than half of the devs here are actually "writing" any code, or improving on the work of the original source writers on a base functional level. debatable, some are, but most are not. with a few exceptions, almost all of the fully functional (imho), awesome (imho) ROMs are based on finished work done by those same original coders.

when a leak drops for the Evo, if it has serious bugs, those bugs most often stay until a gold drops.

(haha, just my two cents. im fulla ****)

all that being said, I am saddened to see a great resource disappear.
[EVO 4G General] lyrical1278:
What I fail to understand is why people STILL underestimate the power of the "small userbase" that you all seem to well, underestimate?

I said it once and I will say it again, we are the people who show off the stuff these upcoming phones can do by showing people the latest leak that got ported to our phones.

Not one person on this site can say they didn't have some sort of influence on the purchase of someone they know. I find that one hard to believe. and these companies know it. That's why they often do things like sale phones with unlocked bootloaders and such.

Instead you create drama and bring this community down.

[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
LMAO...nice!
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
If any of you had even bothered to look at the project website, you would have seen that it was forked from CWM, and we didn't want to confuse folks with Koush's revision numbers (Which we were doing at first). This is not just a port. There are things that work in this version that don't work in the current version of CWM that is being distributed.

Probably obvious addition to thread - I use Titanium Backup Pro - remember to restore app AND data. I've never had any issues.
[Desire General] AliMente:
Titanium Pro of course! Never had any problems when restoring Userapps + data this way.
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
For me the main difference between free and pro is the option, that with free you have to enter every app and system data manually, whereas pro does this automatically. So if you do not flash roms very often, titanium backup free is sufficient.
[Desire General] tobydjones:
When I tried "My backup root" it didn't re-install any paid apps.

When I used "Titanium PRO" I used the one bundled with the ROM I flashed, which wasn't current, and was different from the one I backed up with, and I had FCs. So make sure you always download the latest, even when it's bundled. Oh, and I had to reboot before the changes it made were applied.

There can be problems with reapplying system data from one ROM to another ROM, so in that case, just do the apps.

Alternatively, use appbrain to keep a list of apps :)
[Desire General] Klewe:
Tried both (Titanium and Mybackup). I prefer Titanium Pro since it had nevet let me down.

Once had a problem with Titanium not restoring some apps, but that was due to the lack of space on the phone.

Thanks for the reply. I see I should have searched (the search function in the xda app is terrible tho) .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
Ok so that answers that then. I really would like to try a project modifying the battery driver to enable current readings at some point. Maybe someday...until then not much to do.

Does the current widget show readings with the charger plugged in? The original galaxy worked this way.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3l1:
for now battery monitor works as far as giving estimates and you have to configure the battery manually but it logs and you can put a widget in your task tray that shows the battery in percentage.
