[Atrix 4G General] l3giticonia:
So I've noticed allot of new roms. I'm on the leaked att stock rom not the Hong Kong one.. Are there any mods I can add or anything in that sort kernels etc?
[Atrix 4G General] l3giticonia:
. Anything?
[Atrix 4G General] Spectre51:
You can do anything but will have to unlock the boot loader and install cwm first.
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
you should have installed Kenneth's GB ROM instead of the stock AT&T one.
[HTC Desire S] nodeffect:
this is a very very great guide for the newbies! Thanks man

I have a question for ya... what's nandroid backup? does it backup my stock ROM as well? so if I want back my old stock rom, I just flash back the backup? Need more understanding. Thanks.!
[HTC Desire S] InfernalByte:
A Nandroid back up is the back up you make while in RECOVERY mode. It is an almost complete image of the phone, system, data, and caches are saved. It is important to note that when you wipe you are WIPING HTC's ROM FROM THE PHONE! After a wipe a factory reset will not take your phone back to the state where it left the shop. You'll need an RUU for that.

I appreciate the feed back. :D

Good guide man. But you really, really want to have the phone plugged in and charged. Pref at least 75% battery if on battery power alone. Just for those unforseens ... :rolleyes:

[HTC Desire S] ems328i:
Great guide, thanks very much. I have a question about radios when installing a custom rom.

I see that some of the custom roms do not have a radio. How do I know which radio to use to go with that rom? Many rom threads don't seem to specify. Do I leave my stock one, or do I need a different one?

Also, if I do decide to install a custom kernal at a later time, does that mean re-installing the custom rom again first?

Thanks very much for any help for a noob to android!
[HTC Desire S] InfernalByte:
Don't flash a radio unless you really need to, its not necessary, if your phone works perfectly well with the radio you have my advice is; leave well alone and use the stock radio.

Any add ons such as kernels can be flashed any time after a rom flash and there is no no to reflash a rom just for a fresh kernel etc. Just go back into recovery and flash the exta's, don't wipe.

What I would advise though is when installing any new rom is not to flash any extras until the rom has been running as a stand alone for about 30 minutes. Any, shall we say "toys," Themes and a lot of Kitchen baked stuff should be flashed after the rom has run alone a while and settled, this makes it far easier to understand any issues your fresh rom may have as its easier to identify what's causing it.

This is a bit of a minefield though because some roms need add ons for the first flash, such as CyanogenMod needs the Market and Gmail. Stuff like A2SD scripts also need to be flashed prior to the first boot or they wont work. Your rom Developer should be specific about these.
[HTC Desire S] ems328i:
Superb, thanks very much that's good info! I've just now got S-off with AlphaRevX, and I'm now running the SAGA LBC Mod, just need to learn my way around the new features! Is it possible to now remove some apps like Facebook from this rom?
[HTC Desire S] InfernalByte:
I use Titanium Back Up to freeze the apps before deleting. That way if I get too naughty and freeze something that's needed it can be restored.
[HTC Desire S] ems328i:
Great tip, thanks again, much appreciated!

How to backup the personal data and apps at one ROM in order to restore them at new ROM? Thank you for the answer in advance.
[HTC Desire S] slugger09:
Thanks for the guide.
[HTC Desire S] Codeplayer:
Many thanks

Thank you for this great guide! I am a total noob and I flashed the LBC mod according to your guide. I already got root, as I had done this by other guide. I would like to add some advice for other noobs out there like me. The only setback I got, was that after installing new ROM, it froze, and the problem seems to be my Google account, which wants to sync all apps at once right after you have typed in your password and checked the "sync with my account" checkbox. the best would be to somehow uninstall all your apps from old rom after backing them up with Titanium. The problem was, that while trying to download all the apps again, it froze so hard, that it still showed me the charging LED, and the screen was unresponsive even after I had pulled the charger over 15mins ago. Even the power button did nothing. So I went back to recovery, trying to do the whole wiping/formatting drill with Dalvik Cache and i received errors in the recovery, even while navigating between menus that mounting recovery failed. I got very desperate and taught it would be best to just take a break. It was good idea. when I came back the phone had cooled down and I received no more errors while wiping/formatting/installing. I then just forbid the google account to back up my data online and that did the trick. No more freezes and LBC mod looks, feels and behaves just perfect. I got a whole new PDA now, with whole new capabilities. And also, many of the ROM-s does not include the Sim ToolKit, the STK. This is quite neccesary for people in Estonia and soon for most people in the world, as its neccesary for Mobile-ID. Most of us vote for president for instance by digitally signing our vote with mobile-ID which is an even greater extenson of ID-card. And as a businessman I need to give at least couple of signatures each day. I would be quite unhappy, when I would need to drive 200km to another city just to sign a document, or messing with my ID-card, card reader and stupid drivers, to sign something manually or even worse, use a pen to sign something haha :D So its a very vital component of all phones that use SIM-card and it soon going to be a must have in most countries in the world. So every Estonian here, if you are in need, get the neccesary STK (download the version for android 2.3.4, the 2.3.3 version won't work for LBC 0.5.3) from the Estonian Hinnavaatlus forum here: http://foorum.hinnavaatlus.ee/viewtopic.php?p=6564414#6564414

Again, thanks for the guide, its a dream come true.
[HTC Desire S] InfernalByte:
Your Welcome. :D
[HTC Desire S] InfernalByte:
Yup you can delete facebook etc, if you want to just clean it up, but your not going to make any extra room, unless you learn how to install apk apps into your system partition, rather than market apps into your data partition..
[HTC Desire S] pumpernickel77:
I dont think this question was answered clearly enough:confused: Can you restore your phone back exactly the way it was before with the nandroid back up you made? If not what is the point of the back up?

Also, it it best to do a nandroid back up the way you described or would it be just as good to let the ROM manager App do it for you?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Nandroid Backup (to be honest - a tiny piece of Googling would give you the answer to this) but, in answer to your question, yes, a Nandroid backup takes the phone state back to effectively when the backup was was taken....I use it often when testing ROMS and then returning to my daily use ROM.

The only thing that isn't backed up by the backup and therefore isn't restored is your Radio so if you change version you need to flash the older version (which I'm sure that you'll be advised not to!) to return to the same state you were in.

ROM Manager nandroid and manual recovery nandroid are the same, it's just a matter of choice and personal preference. Some people like command line other like GUI. However, using recovery based backup it means that you'll hopefully have a slightly greater understaing of what is actually happening and the options that are avialiable to you, which means should there ever come a time when only recovery is accessible - you won't cr@p your pants! :D

Hmmm... done all this, and the rom seems to install (I have tried many different roms), but then on reboot it doesn't load in properly, it just takes forever (the last one was over an hour before I got fed up with it) and stays on the htc screen.

Any ideas?

Found a really cool app that could help a lot of us out who are on data limits, call limits, etc.

It can show you wifi totals, data totals, call totals, and more. It also can let you set limits and all that fun stuff.

One thing that is pretty cool is that it can show you data usages per app. Really helped me cut out which app was draining my batter.

Check it out. :)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idanmev:
hey,

I bought a month ago a new vibrant from the states and I installed Bionix rom and then Honeybee.

I have 2 problems with the battery:

the first one is when I'm rebooting the cellphone the percents of the battery status get down by 10-30%, for example: I had 45% and then after the reboot I got 22%, sometimes it's even fell to 0%.

the second one is that the battery is working only within 5-5 and half hours max with no Wi-Fi and normal-less usage, the display is taking at least 80% of my battery (as it write on the setting option), I do have juice defender and I tried to find out what application taking so much battery but no success (I used some programs like watchdog lite and etc.).

I tried to change the battery the other ones (even battery that works great on the I-9000).

**I've tried to calibrate the battery more than once.

anybody has some suggestions?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idanmev:

if I want to do it, how can I save all of my contacts?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle51:
if you save them to the sim it wont matter

or back up contacts/calls with titanium backup, cant restore it on any other version though, just 2.2.1 if thats what honeybee is

back up anything else you want with titanium, preferable not system data unless you're just going to restore it to that version
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jneal9:
Best way in my opinion is just to make sure you save everyone as a Google contact. That way they are backed up and restored automatically.

try calibrating again, charge full, unplug, if it drops, plugin again, keeps repeating this till it stays at 100

then use a calibration app

it'll take a few charge cycles to settle in, charge full, run all the way down till its completely dead, charge full, run all way down again
