You can move from stable to nightlys without a wipe in theory, make sure to take backups.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cangir:
Can you suggest me a good backup program ? I'm thinking about titanium backup pro
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Nandroid for the whole system, titanium backup for system/user apps and data.

Sms backup+ for sms and call log (syncs to gmail account, other programs may sync locally).

You can export contacts to sdcard (I think).

I could not add to my previous post so I'll just start a new one. I want to say thank you again to all of the people here who have given "noobs" like me advice and direction as to the proper way of getting root. It's a bit tedious when you can screw up a 300+ dollar phone. I am running a das bamf rom now and sense 3.0 and I have not noticed anything wrong. And I want to add something else. To all of you who posted to my last discussion that were so negative on someone asking another question that you have answered before.... Just don't post to it. Thanks again.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
It's simple if you don't want a backlash follow the rules, search for the topic you are about to post for, and Google as a last resort before posting. Everything you want to ask is already out there since you are not the first to post how do I root, how do i flash this or that.

Does anyone know if I can get one from a retailer with warranty? Or am I doomed to buy a used one on Ebay? Thank you.

You could go to best buy and pick one up. Add the black tie protection and you'll be golden
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_phekt:
I'm not sure about all Best Buy stores, but they stopped carrying T-Mobile here in MN. Now the Nexus S for T-Mo is very rare around here.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbeebe24:
I'm sure there are brand new NS's on eBay, and if so it will come with a 1 year manufacturer warranty
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_phekt:
I see Nexus S in fair shape still going for $300 on Craigslist here because they're hard to find, which is nice because I'm, gonna sell mine when the Galaxy Nexus comes. That should make up some of the difference so my wallet doesn't feel too much pain.:D But to answer the OP question. Check with your local Best Buy and see if they still carry T-Mo. If they do you'll have no problem. If not then Craigslist or ebay will be your best bet, but as nbeebe24 stated... there will be no warranty.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrsbelpit:
Thanks all. No longer sold at Best Buy, unfortunately. I'll try and get a good used one and add a Squaretrade warranty. :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheeseus:
Hi guys,

I was trying to upgrade to Android 2.3 on my Sharp Softbank 005SH but the phone got stuck in the Major Update screen and I don't know what to do now. Anyone with experience please help!

The phone is updated to the latest firmware that is required for this major update, Build No. S0900.

So, I decided to go for the PC upgrade option, Downloaded the driver and the Update tool, waited for many hours for the download to complete, then started the procedure.

I then switched the phone to Fast File Transfer USB mode, checked for update, it discovered that an update was available and asked me to restart the phone.

After restarting, I ran the Update tool but it gets stuck at the screen where it checks if the phone is connected in the above USB mode.

Meanwhile, the phone won't reboot in normal mode. If I pull the USB cable out, it says "Update failed. After a reboot the phone will work again." Well, it doesn't because I can't reboot. Even tried removing the battery for a couple of minutes...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1toVibrant:
100% of every person I read , get tweeted on or emailed...

that has messed up their phone and needs help.. is always involving a CM rom..

the reason I never have messed with CM is it seems so unstandard and I continue to see phone issues either during flash to or ppl trying to get back to stock or back to a CWM style ROM..

what gives?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Because they're noobs and fail to read the op, and just do what they want, and when they mess up, they have no clue what they've done, nor howto even begin to troubleshoot their own mistakes.

Cm is non-standard because 1. It's entirely different code and 2. The partition types, and format/filesystems has changed from bml/RFS/ext4 to mtd/yaffs2. And because of the partition stuff, you MUST use Odin or heimdall and jfd to go back. And they don't read the giant red letters in the op and then complain about stuff when it "doesn't work".

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saj1jr:
So I managed to root the phone with little to no problems. Superuser is showing up, so I know I'm good to go.

I feel like a noob right now with the Galaxy, so here's some quick questions.

1) Do you flash ROMs/kernals/everything via Odin? I used to have an Evo so I was used to going into recovery and flashing that way. Can I just do it all from Odin in download mode?

2) Does anyone have a legit way to get clockworkmod recovery onto my Galaxy 2? The method I tried screwed everything up. When I ran the kernal or whatever to install it, my buttons got all ****ed up. The "home button" no longer worked, so when I got into recovery, I couldn't select anything. I NEED clockworkmod so I can back stuff up so I can start trying out ROM's.

3) Would rooting cause me to have battery issues? Ever since I rooted the other day, I've been having problems with my battery. The phone has also been getting really hot, and the battery isn't charging right. Would re calibrating the battery fix this maybe?

Links/responses would be helpful. i've been browsing a ton of threads but haven't been able to make any progress and I just keep getting lost...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
1. No u can flash roms/kernels in cwm. Odin is mainly used to root and to use if you messed up something and need to return to stock. Other than that cwm does all he flashing.

2. The only way to get cwm is to flash a kernel that has it packed in. A good choice would be the stock kernel with cwm by chris41.

3. Root has nothing to do with battery life but u need root and a custom kernel to undervolt which will help with battery. Battery life is usually better on custom kernels due to undervolting.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saj1jr:
Any chance you can link me to that kernal? I did some looking but couldn't find it/wasn't sure if it was the right one.

After having yours for a little while, do you still like it? Would you rather have something else? I'm also thinking of the eee transformer our the iPad. Want to ask some people with tablet experience.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] agc93:
I've got an Aussie GT-P1000T and its a great device. I quite like the smaller 7" form factor and that's really this tab's biggest point of difference to the other tabs you mention. The Transformer is 10.1" (and it's replacement has already been announced if that's a problem for you) while the iPad is 9.7".

The only other thing to keep in mind is that this year Samsung will be releasing a HC-capable replacement for this tab as well as larger 7.7" and 8.9" Tabs so you might want to keep that in mind before you buy anything.
[Galaxy Tab General] bongski55:
the original gt 7 inch is THE ONLY TABLET WITH TELEPHONE CAPABILITY....no other tablet provides this. so you can actually "get rid" of your celphone by having this tablet. You should use handsfree kit BTW for making calls....:D

It's still a great tablet, everything works perfectly on it (including calls). If you are looking for cheap and qualility, this is it, you can find cheap used/refurb SGT7 with 3G. if money is no object to you, I would wait for 7.0plus or 7.7

Running CM 7.1 stable on N1. No recent changes that I'm aware of. Lockscreen (sliding tab) was working as of this morning.

for the past few hours, whenever I wake the phone (power button/trackball), I'm at the Home screen always - no lockscreen, no sliding tab. It's annoying me no end and driving me nuts.

Googled as much as I can but cant find anything - I've tried the things below

1. CM settings, tablet tweaks - verified that disable lockscreen is unchecked

2. Wiped data for CMSettings (doesnt seem to help)

3. Re verified all my CM settings numerous times - as far as I can tell, they are at the values that I've always had them

4. Disable lock screne on security pin is unchecked. I dont have a security pin set up either.

I have a niggling doubt that somewhere I'm doing something incredibly dumb - hopefully someone can help me nail this...

a) make sure it's "kovsimg.nbh" in root of your sdcard

or

b) enter bootloader and connect to your pc -> usb-method

[Android Apps and Games] SharpAceX:
Hello developers!

I am excited to introduce to you my first Android app. This is a simple game that balloons of increasing speed fly from the bottom of your screen upwards. Tap on them to pop them to earn some score. More score levels you up, unlocks more balloons and eventually speeds up the balloons. Your goal is to reach level 50.

My biggest concern is how the game looks on other devices. I could only test on my Samsung Infuse 4G which has a considerably big screen. So if you want to try this out, all I ask is for you to tell me if anything is cut off and what your frames per second is. Hopefully you won't run into any glitches. Rate it if you want, but I'd prefer the above info instead. Other than that, I hope you enjoy it!

It's completely free and ad-free so don't worry. :)

For the app, add this to the end of the Android Marketplace homepage URL:

/details?id=com.sharpacex.BalloonFrenzy

Sorry I can't link yet and I sort of need this information as soon as possible to ensure if I need to make serious edits or not. I'm not sure how Android's scaling works. Thanks for reading.
[Android Apps and Games] :
On my Atrix the screen is cut off on the right side and on the bottom, its just black bars. When the balloons float up over the black bars they leave streaks of red that dont go away. 60fps

Ahh I know what happened... Since the background is a pre-set size, it wasn't big enough to cover it for your phone's screen. When I get around making a Credit's page, you'll be added on it (Unless you don't want to) for this info. Thanks a lot.
