[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hydera5:
You can use Titanium backup to backup the apps, but restoring the system data across ROMs is risky, you can keep all your apps and app data with Titanium backup and restore once you get onto your new ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
What Hydera said.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
I wish google would just bundle a tool with their OS to do this.

ASUS has a backup tool for the Transformer which does both apps and data and does NOT require root.

We shouldn't have to modify our phones to backup our data. Apple's iCloud is the perfect example of what backups should be like!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codesplice:
You can do it with "adb backup" and "adb restore" - doesn't require modifying your phone.

Apple's iCloud is designed for a slightly different usage scenario - that is, migrating data between devices, not backing/restoring data so you can reflash the phone's firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Yeah, and for someone like my wife, iCloud is perfect and doesn't require thought... Get her to do an ADB backup several times a day and you'll be asking for trouble :eek: There must be a better way that can be implemented within the OS, like the aforementioned ASUS backup tool I wrote about earlier... Something "everyday folks" can use.

Titanium Backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blostorm:
Just got titanium backup pro and it works amazing for what I need ! The free version was meh since I wanted to do a batch backup and restore them all on the new ROM. I will now be able to test ROMs using the same configuration for all of them !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Malarie:
After you flah, all your apps are automatically redownloaded from the market, once you enter your email.. But you will have to reconfigure them. Or, you can restore with Titanium backup. This will restore your app conf as welll.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Very inconvenient move. Lots of data usage is being used, especially for people on "capped" monthly bandwidth and the fact that app data isn't being saved.

Titanium Backup is the way to go. Pro is definitely needed as it's a one-step batch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smackhacker:
Whenever I flash of Roman's roms there is no automatic restore from the market. I tried another rom, can't remember, think it was the new ICS 4.04 all apps started downloading. Why the difference?
[HTC Sensation] barnodian:
Hello,

Recently, I treied to install an ICS ROM on my HTC Sensation. However, after installing the ROM (something I'm not new too) it repeatably crashes and reboots.

I've tried three ROMs, (Extreme Sensation, Virtuous Quattro Alpha 3, and TripNice) and all three have resulted in this boot loop. I've wiped the phone every time, so this is not the issue.

Any ideas on how to help would be great,

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] trust-no-one:
Did you update your firmware? If not, go do it... there are many guides available, and it is mandatory. READ THE GUIDES THOROUGHLY BEFORE DOING THIS AS IT CAN BRICK YOUR PHONE.

have fun ^^
[HTC Sensation] GladiatoRiley:
You need to flash a new firmware upgrade. This should change your HBOOT. Read the ROM thread, it will show you what firmware to flash

Hi,

Please read THIS GUIDE.

Anyone know if there is external DVD drives compatible with the dock?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Spidey01:
For what fun could be had in a terminal, maybe but I am doubtful about the stock kernel at least.

Also ofc, no Android apps are expecting it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Magnesus:
It's linux. If you manage to mount it, it behaves like normal folder (for example the one for microSD card or pendrives in Removable folder).
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Spidey01:
Yes but optical disks are used for more than just reading data disks.

I have an external cd rom and an atp, but don't know if it will work with my docks lone portand nothing if need to test with.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MRCANNADY:
Hey guys! First off, let me say that my Asus has had constantly weaker wifi signals than my Xoom or Samsung galaxy tab devices, using the speedtest app my Prime always gets 3mb less than the other devices which is an issue that most of us are having, so I decided to do a few test using all three devices and found something interesting. I ran the speed test on all 3 devices 4 times, one after the other, and noticed of course that my Prime lagged behind by an average of 3mb. I then decided to go into settings, location services and turn off the gps. Now guess what, my Prime is now beating both my Xoom and Galaxy tab by an average of 3-4mbs! I tested this multiple times, moves further from the router, and this was a constant result..

Which made me think, could the weak wifi issue be caused by the interference by the GPS signal trying to obtain a lock, which is being *blocked*by the metal casing on the back of the Primes?? This would make sense as when you use the speed test app, it tries to find your location by using the gps built into the device. I hope Gary will read this and test it himself, to confirm. Guys, please try this out an let me know if your wifi speeds increase once GPS is off?? Please dont reply with rude comments, I am only reporting what has worked for me.

I dont mind sacrificing my GPS for a now faster wifi :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] krispy521:
I always have my gps off since is was killed in the 1/17 update. That update made it completely useless. Even with gps off, i still have a weak wifi signal compared to my evo 3d. It also drops in and out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
Hate to be a broken record but Wi-Fi will always be weak as long as your prime still has a solid aluminum backplate on it. If you guys haven't noticed yet what other devices with Wi-Fi can you think of had a issue with weak signal where there ended up being a software fix for it? I've been working IT for 20 years it doesn't happen the Wi-Fi adapter in the Prime is perfectly fine it's just being shielded by the aluminum.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
Is that the same reason why my GPS and WIFI works so well in my HTC Desire HD with it's aluminum unicover body? :rolleyes:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
Big difference is that it has no problem getting out of the front face of your phone Primes Wi-Fi antenna is sandwich in alum
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ride525:
I tried turning GPS off as the OP suggested. My results were mixed at best.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
>Is that the same reason why my GPS and WIFI works so well in my HTC Desire HD with it's aluminum unicover body?

The Desire HD doesn't have an all-aluminum back.

Lol good stufff
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] phree1:
OMG's the grammar!

This image makes a lot more sense now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] scooper:
Okay, after reading around on the net for a bit, I did the following.

1) Use Wi-Fi Analyzer to check for any kind of wireless spot that your Prime may pick up at home. Check what channel they use and pick something different for yours. Mine had the same channel as a couple of others so I picked one that is higher.

2) Mine is dual band and had guest on so I disabled both guest and 5GHz, leaving only 2.4Ghz enabled.

Testing results:

Close to the router, the max down went up to 9Mbps compared to 6Mbps from before. Of course, my tablet is pulling an Apple. I had to have the backplate facing the router to get that or else I get about 2Mbps less with it away from the router.

In the living room downstairs, not a big jump. ~6Mbps compared to ~5Mbps from before. Of course the Acer laptop got >13Mbps at the same place last time.

In my bedroom, also downstairs, the max I could achieve was 5Mbps where I could only get less than 3Mbps before.

I ventured down to the basement, just by the stairs and didn't go far. I got like 6Mbps there. I never tested in the basement before since I thought it would be worse so I didn't bother.

So, it definitely did improve for mine. Of course this is temp because you can only make changes to your network and not anywhere else. I have a few things that are only Wireless-G, such as PS3, so I have to use Wireless-G. Maybe I'll try later with Mixed mode or play around with Wireless-N mode only and see. I got about 20Mbps with my bro's D-link Wireless-N only, in the same room.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] scooper:
Okay, stayed up until 3am last night to do some more testing on Wi-Fi. I fed my router Tomato firmware.

Results:

*Max achieved if hit the sweet spot. And somewhat consistent but only if I hit it. Wired speedtest showed ~23Mbps or a bit better consistently.

-G-Only mode:

--By the router, max ~13Mbps consistently (up from 9Mbps before)

--Living room downstairs, max ~16Mbps and >13Mbps consistently (up from ~6Mbps and comparable to the Acer laptop. Then again, I haven't tried with Acer laptop post-Tomato just yet)

--My room downstairs, max ~12Mbps and consistently hit ~ 10Mbps - 12Mpbs (up from 5Mbps previously)

--Basement, max ~3Mbps (down from 6Mbps but it was late and I got tired of finding the sweet spot!)

-N-only mode:

--By the router, max ~2Mbps consistently. WTH!!! (was able to pull ~20Mbps by my bro's twice as cheap D-link router. So I didn't test the rest.)

By the way, Wi-Fi Analyzer showed weaker strength after I slapped on Tomato. Followed some instruction to modify settings to improve the signal strength that proved to work for some, but didn't help with mine. Not sure if it helped with throughput though. I gotta play around some more when I have time.

Now, I also had to use channel 8, one that no other surrounding networks have. That again helped. If I moved it a little bit away from the sweet spot, the speed dropped like mad. Wi-Fi strength didn't really mean much. The sweet spot in my room was where I only got 1 bar. Moved a few inches, not even, to get 2 bars. Thought it should be better? Not a chance. Couldn't get it to > 4Mbps.

Now, my house is 2400 sq ft not including the basement. If map it out in 2D, my computer room is far top right and my room is far bottom left. Each level's separation is pretty big because of high ceilings.

I'm somewhat happy with it because I know what it's capable of but it's just not practical. I may hit great throughput with the sweet spots in my house but not doing much outside of my house since I can't modify those networks. And some sweet spots, not too comfy. In the living room, I have to hold it up and tilt it upward a little. In my bedroom, I just lay it flat on my bed.

Forgot to add that my up speed almost always hit the max of 2.5Mbps no-matter-what.

Oh, and turning off GPS didn't help with mine.

The kick drum in some songs in Pandora sounds really ugly. It sounds like it would if your headphones were broken, but I am sure my headphones are fine. I am not an audio expert so I do not know the technical term (fart noise maybe?). It is really annoying and it ruins the songs, especially songs with loud kick drums (Deadmau5). Does anyone else have this problem? It happened on every ROM I've used.
[myTouch 4G General] RobertVanHagar:
Negative. What version of Pandora are you using? I have the "Red Unlimited" app installed on mine and I use Smart Android's Equalizer application.
[myTouch 4G General] madmanmostafa:
Are you using Pandora One?

DeadMau5 on mine actually had the same broken sound you're describing. It's just a lot of bass that has to do with the quality of the file. After I upgraded to Pandora One, it went away because of the higher bitrate. Now it makes the same noise if I turn it up super loud. If you don't have Pandora one, just do the 1 day trial and go onto your phone and select High Quality under settings to see if that helps.

[Droid 2 Global General] Noneya Biz:
I have a motorola droid 2 global phone (running 2.2 fryo) that is automatically updating, but I do not want the 2.4 update as my phone is rooted and I do not want to mess up my root settings. It will not leave the screen with the box and the status indicator bar, even when I power the phone off and take out the battery. Any advice on how to bypass this without installing that update is appreciated. Thanks

p.s. The phone updated without my permission.
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
Updating to 2.3.3 is actually recommended (performance improvements, battery life, etc).

As I see you're on T-Mobile; you could update to 2.3.3 without losing your band unlock by following the instructions provided @ RootzWiki: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8326-d2g-gingerbread-hack-for-us-band-unlockers/

By updating to 2.3.3 you will indeed lose root, however you can easily regain it by using the D3 One-Click Root method.

If you want to stay on 2.2 it's quite possible to freeze the auto update app.
[Droid 2 Global General] Noneya Biz:
Thanks for responding! I am new to rooting, so what is the d3 one click root method? Also, the phone is automatically trying to update itself without my permission. Everytime I turn on the phone, it's updating and I can't get past that. How do I freeze this?
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
I take it it tries to update, then fails, and reboots into 2.2, and then offers you to update again?

What exactly is happening?
[Droid 2 Global General] Noneya Biz:
Nope not at all. I would automatically try to update to 2.4, would not give me the option to not update the phone. I would take out the battery to stop the update and when I turn it on, it would still try to update without my permission. :-(
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
just the easiest way to root with gingerbread

yes, because Moto wants you to have the updates, and fixes
