ok. followed the instructions exactly i selected safe buzz froyo.zip and it loaded for about 1second as if it was installing. then the clockwork mod menu appeared again and i rebooted the phone. but it loaded as cyanogen 7 so it didn't work. how long is it supposed to take to install? 1 second? do i need to do something to my microsd card? like make it a gold card or something? I've heard that word before.
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
No, you don't need a Goldcard for flashing the Safe Flash ROM. (You would have needed one only if you followed the RUU method).

ROM install should take a lot more time than 1 second. Also, it is surprising how Cyanogenmod 7 is loading. Did you not perform a 'Wipe Data' in Clockcowkrmod, as I have stated?

Also, check your ROM file size, make sure the file size matches, and see if you can catch the error message that comes on Clockworkmod when it reboots after 1 second when installing the ROM.
[Wildfire General] vivid435:
the rom file size is about 120mb. i did perform a wipe data before i attempted to install the rom. yes i will try and see what message comes on the screen in that one second of the rom loading. the phone doesn't reboot after i press install rom, it goes back to the clockwork menu then i hit reboot. i will try again.
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Well , that part is normal.behaviour (i.e. After installing the ROM, it will not automatically reboot. You have to select 'Reboot System now'.)

Let me know if you can catch the error. It can be seem behind the options.
[Wildfire General] vivid435:
ok when i click install zip from sd card then choose zip from sd card then yes it says finding update package, then it says opening update package, then it says installing update then a bar appears for the briefest of moments then clockwork menu appears again.

Return to stock by flashing an official, signed & of course unrooted Rom through recovery. The link below has everything you need to get back to stock. The other alternative is to wait till someone posted a stock rooted ICS rom which will in all likelihood happen before it gets pushed out to everyones phone anyway...

i have 2.3.5 vodafone rom on a carrier locked vodafone branded i9001 and i have problems with calls.

randomly i cant hear the person im talking to and 3-5 seconds later the call drops. i can get it like 10 times a day or at all.

i tried 3 different roms and same thing happens! could it be a hardware problem, or is it an app that does this?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] crisdorya:
Maybe....

Hmm... It may be HW since you did try to use multiple FWs.

Before going into service, try running on GSM ONLY! I see that I have bad service in a certain spot in my house (1-2 bars) while with a Nokia 5800 I have no problems. It may be the radio in the i9001.

I hope it helps.

Is this the best new feature in ICS:

https://plus.google.com/u/0/112413860260589530492/posts/DDTKFhiDS9U?hl=en

Disabling Apps

ICS adds the ability to disable an app outright. Don't like an app that came preinstalled? Disable it! Its resources never run and its launcher icon is gone until you re-enable it. (This doesn't free up any space -- it can't, since pre-installed apps are included in the read-only system storage. But it does put them "out of sight, out of mind.")

Wonders if this will work in TW too, or if Samsung somehow disables this feature as Android is open source?
[Galaxy S II General] Deleted member 4038153:
If only there were some other ICS threads in the Samsung Galaxy II area of the forums where this kind of stuff might already be!

Instead of speculating about whether an as yet unreleased feature works for your phone, why not just root and freeze/uninstall apps you don't want?
[Galaxy S II General] borchgrevink:
You're free to skip reading the thread... ;-)

No, I won't root yet, therefore I hope this feature will survive to our phones. And, what are the chances for that?
[Galaxy S II General] borchgrevink:
Is this feature available in the betas out now?
[Galaxy S II General] prinzhernan:
Yes it is.
[Galaxy S II General] neo335:
It is not recommended to disable some of the apps as it might cause your phone to freeze and not updating on the fly.

?= Question Not Yet Answered √=Question Answered, Thanks! :)

Been rooted for quite awhile now, but stuck with stock 2.2.1 at first. Now I'm ready to flash CM7, mostly because I'm sick of certain bugs and issues I've been having that I hope this will fix, and I have many questions. I have spent weeks reading various forums, reviews, instructions, etc. I like to do my research, but need some things better clarified. Please humor someone fairly new to all of this and answer as many as you can. Thanks.

√I have CWM Recovery 3.x right now, should I upgrade to the 5.x one?

√What's this Amon_Ra Recovery I've been seeing? Is it different? better?

√Should I start with CM 7.0.3 or jump right into the new 7.1.0?

√What kind of changes can I expect to see to functions and appearance?

√Will I still have all of the basic apps? i.e. camera, gallery, swype, bluetooth, gps, weather, calender, clock, etc?

√What about the T-Mobile specific things like MyAccount?

√Does it effect the Genius Button?

√I want to know what kind of work will be involved with getting my phone back to the way I like it and what kinds of things will be replaced(I assume with better apps) or removed all together requiring me to find replacements. I've tried to review the changelog, but quite frankly, I don't understand most of what it lists.

I use LauncherPro and Folder Organizer.

√Will all of that stuff still be there on my homescreens?

√Will I need to redo all of my settings, ringtones, wallpapers, alarms, etc?

Yes, I want to be rid of sense and use CM instead.

Yes, I want to be updated to GingerBread without waiting anymore for the OTA

No, I do not want to lose my customization, apps or anything else except the bloatware.

I have a full titanium pro backup of all apps and system files plus data.

I have a nandroid backup done through clockwork mod recovery.

My e-mail, calender & contacts should be backed up through Google.

I use SMS Backup & Restore for all of my texts and Handcent is the app.

I backed up my LauncherPro and my Folder Organizer.

I have the SD card backed up in full on my PC.

√Did I miss anything?

I read that I should wipe not just the phone but my SD card too and do a partition on it for Apps2SD.

√Do I wipe, partition, then just copy everything back to it?

√Is it better to do it while in the phone connected to the pc or pop it out and do it directly from the pc?

√Should I be using ADB for any of this?

I'm sure I will come up with even more questions as I continue to research and get answers to these, but thank you so very much to anyone willing to take the time to settle a new root user's overloaded brain. There is just SO much info out there, sometimes it is hard to make sense of it all and this forum has always seemed to me to be not just the most knowledgeable, but also the most willing to break things down and clarify things without judging a poster for being confused. Noobs like me appreciate that. :-)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
You should update clockworkmod recovery just to be on the safe side. I don't believe there is an amon_RA recovery for the MT4G. we only have Clockworkmod and ext4 recovery. I would personally go for clockworkmod.

Now as for which CM7 version, that depends on you. Do you want Android 2.3.4 (CM7) or Android 2.3.7 (CM7.1)? Both are pretty much the same, just a different base and minor changes.

When you flash CM7, you'll need to flash the gapps as well, since Google apps are not preinstalled. Instructions on the CM thread. But besides gapps, all the other stock apps should be there, (minus the bloatware). So like camera, phone, messages, gallery etc will all be there. Tmobile my account can be downloaded from the market for free.

THIS ROM DOES NOT INCLUDE THE GENIUS BUTTON FEATURE, THE BUTTON IS REMAPPED TO THE SEARCH FUNCTION.

Now as for apps and back ups, yes you will lose all data as you are required to do a FULL WIPE. but if you have already backed up apps in titanium backup then you should be fine.

NO NEED TO WIPE THE SDCARD, JUST THE PHONE. well, unless you want to eliminate all error. But I don't suggest you do it.

If you have any more questions, I'll be glad to answer them. :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DANCCS:
Only swipe card if you are having issues that you can't solve. Is pretty low the probability that card gives you problems.

For your apps, you can back them up with another app, called titanium back up i.e.

Do not skip this line ! - do not restore your from your google account . That will always bring problems . once you flash the tom, skip the the logging and restore apps from titanium back up. Then log in and skip "restore" from your account in google .

Not too many people know this , and trust me, it will avoid a lot of issues with any ROM

I actually using MIUI and it is amazing. I unplugged my phone last might at 12, went to bed just woke up 1 hour ago and have.been checking emails, xda,,etc on my phone for 35 min and look at my battery

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sorraia3:
OK, well since I have CWM now, I will just stick with that and update it. Thanks.

√Would you mind elaborating on the differences/changes? √What do you mean by a different base?

√Yeah, I think I have the apps pretty well covered in backups, but what about the other stuff?

[√Ringtones, alerts, clock alarms, calender alarms, wallpapers, etc. Not the actual files but the settings assigning them.

√All the personalized and customized stuff?

√Settings like my saved wi-fi networks, preferences like default apps to use for browser, messages, etc.

There's so many little things and tweaks I've made I fear I won't be able to find/remember them all again to get everything back the way it was.

√Will that all be gone?

√I understand some of it gets backed up in the nandroid backup, but that does me no good with a new ROM, because that it is only useful if I want to flash back to the stock ROM, correct? Is there another way to save all of the settings & customizations? Or am I just thoroughly misinformed and confused?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
lol someone has lots of questions ;)

but that's ok

really, android 2.3.4 and 2.3.7 don't have any BIG differences, or noticeable ones. base means the android version that the rom is based on/running on.

titanium backup only covers apps, all of the rest of the settings WILL BE ERASED, sorry. when you wipe the phone in clockworkmod recovery, you're basically doing a factory reset. doing a nandroid backup only back ups the CURRENT rom your phone is running right now, in your case, stock 2.2.1. the nandroid is used to go back to in case you need it.

---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 PM ----------

if you are going to flash cm7, you must manually install gapps, since they are not included in the rom.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sorraia3:
√OK Thanks, so I should be able to find a list somewhere of Gingerbread features and that's what will be in the ROM? Is there a straightforward list somewhere, in layman's terms, of what apps & features & such come with it or don't? Does the appearance of things change? Like the settings screens, notifications, lock screen, etc?

√I found another App called MyBackup Root that says it backs up Data including System Settings, Android Home, Alarms, Dictionary, Calendar, PlayLists, MMS, SMS, Bookmarks, Call Logs, & Contacts. The first 2, System Settings & Android Home, think they will cover all that extra customization stuff? And will it give me any problems when I restore it?

√OK, and then once I install the actual apps from there, I use Titanium to restore my settings and data?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
android 2.3.4 and 2.3.7 don't have any big changes, google it, and maybe you can find some screenshots.

you can't back up the phone, dictionary, android home, system app etc from stock MT4G and restore it once you are in CM7. the roms are totally different, the apps were made for HTC roms, and you are running AOSP.

once you install the gapps, yes, you can use titanium to restore your downloaded apps+data. BUT NOT SYSTEM APPS BACKED UP FROM YOUR PREVIOUS ROM.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sorraia3:
OK thanks, I will look.

√OK, so if I understand correctly. The CM7 ROM has it's own apps which replace the stock ones and I will need to set them up all over again. Correct?

?Is there a list of these apps out there so I can go through my current ones and maybe write down key settings to use when setting up the new ones?

√So any App that I actually downloaded and installed myself after getting the phone, but nothing that came on the phone initially with the Stock ROM, correct? It just won't do it or it will cause problems?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
yes, that's all correct. :)

well, list...? you mean like list of all the stock apps on CM7?

if you try to restore the stock apps from another rom onto this rom, it will get messed up.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sorraia3:
Yes, like I've seen some ROMs that have listed features such as includes camera, calendar, messages, etc or what they have added like screenshot, apps2sd, etc But I can't seem to find anything like that for CM7. I've looked at the Changelog page but it lists everything like fixes and updates and tweaks, and a lot of it I don't understand. For example... it lists... Common: Camera timer - Danesh Mondegarian

√Does that mean it comes with a camera or just that it adds a timer to the camera app, but I have to get & install the app?

And this has to be an inside joke, right? Common: "eat" pushes fresh brunch/breakfast to device - Ricardo Cerqueira

Good to know about the stock apps. Thank You! I probably would have tried to restore everything if you hadn't said something. See, questions overload pays off LOL

√So once I flash the ROM, Should I actually re-download and reinstall my apps, will it find them automatically from the SD card, or do I have to restore everything from the backups?

√I saw you mention the VU ROM... I was looking into that one awhile ago before I settled on CM7. How do you like it? That's a Sense one, right? Much different from CM? How hard would it be to switch between them to check them both out?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sorraia3:
UPDATE: I found a decent list here... http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3-highlights.html

oddly though, it only goes up to 2.3.4, no 2.3.7, but from what I could gather elsewhere the only main changes from .4 to .7 were for the Nexus S and Galaxy S, so I guess I need to look more at the difference between CM 7.0.3 & CM 7.1.0 to decide.

√And in that case 7.1 should just add on to whatever was already there in 7.0, right?

And OMG 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich, looks amazing! I can't wait.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
You would have to restore the data manually through titanium backup.

VU is AMAZINGGGG :eek:

Awesome battery life, smooth as butter, beautiful UI. better than CM7 IMO lol. VU is a Sense 3.0 Tom based off of the HTC Sensation.

VU is a LOT different from CM, since one is sense and the other is AOSP.

It wouldn't be very hard to switch between them and try both of them, just do the basics for both Roms:

1) MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP

2) do a full wipe (DATA, CACHE, DALVIK CACHE)

3) flash rom.zip

4) reboot, wait patiently (first boot should take longer)

5) enjoy!

6) flash any other mods/tweaks/themes etc

7) hit the thanks button :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sorraia3:
Hmmm... My son and his girlfriend both have the Sensation. They love them. OK, I will definitely check that one out too. ;)

Which is the current stable version to get? Do I still need the GAPPS?

I would love to see a side by side comparison chart of ROM apps and features. Can't believe no one has done one yet. Although I guess with all of the frequent updates to ROMs it would be a pain to maintain.

Thank you for answering so many of my questions, saranhai, you've been very kind and patient. Would you mind taking one more look through these posts and see if you might be able to answer any of the remaining ones with question marks? Thanks so much!
