[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Hpi:
Hello everyone,

I got me a GIO for christmas and I'm quite content with this phone, but I've had frequent reboots due to a bug in the WLAN driver (as far as I have read). So I decided to install a custom ROM and I chose CM 7.2, which works great most of the time apart from one major annoyance: every time I restart the phone (had to switch it off during exams, the phone's misbehaving, whatever reason) I'm getting into bootloops. The only solution: wipe user data, reflash, wipe user data, restore all settings, etc.

I read that these bootloops aren't uncommon, but I feel that I should be able to reboot my phone without having to set everything up again.

So my questions are: a) Is it perfectly normal what I am experiencing? b) Is there something obvious I am doing wrong? c) What could I do better? Is there a good way to backup my user data and restore it into a fresh system without having to reboot? How could I possible get rid of those bootloops? How could I help the ROMs developer to help me get rid of the bootloops?

I'd be very thankful for any directions :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
a no

use titanium backup,

then flash the rom with clockworkmod

flash gapps

wipe data cache

reboot

restore titaniumbackup you made

done

thats all
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Hpi:
Hi voetbalremco,

Thank you for your prompt reply. I have installed Titanium Backup now, for all I have read that should at least make restoring my "system" after a re-flash more bearable. The only thing I'm worrying about is that the TB wiki states that I have to reboot the phone after restoring system settings, but thanks again for the hint. I'll tell you how it worked, when (hopefully if) I run into the need of a re-flash. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
You can make a full backup if you want in CWM
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] JustVass:
Maybe your download was corrupt or whatever... try re-downloading the latest CM7.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Hpi:
I doubt that the download was corrupt. I have had this problem for various versions now (CM7.1RC + subsequent patches, CM7.2 + patch). But just to make sure, are the md5 sums of the original files anywhere?

Is there a way I could turn off the boot animation and get debug output on the screen so I can see what's going on when it bootloops?

Hello,

Well i turn to this section becaue i cant get the right answer in the topic itselfe.

I have m1ndh4x8r EQDKP Sense 3.5 4.1, with Data2SD installed.

Working great.

But now i want to update to the newest version.

When i do so and update the ROM, i boot and everything works oke.

But no data2sd, so i have only internal memory.

When i reboot install data2sd, its not working at all and stucked @ white htc.

Also when i do update, and data2sd directly after without reboot > not working

When i update, restart > no data2sd

I never used data2sd before, so the qeustion is:

How can i update this?

Or do i have to do a clean install on every new version?

Or are there other ways im unaware of?

Thanks.
[HTC Wildfire S] Nightshadow931:
Wipe everything, and install newest version.
[HTC Wildfire S] Azerox:
So you are saying that on every version i have to do a clean install?

And there is no way to update?

I dont hope so, cause then i wont be updating anytime soon :D
[HTC Wildfire S] Nightshadow931:
Just use backup.

In the last 5 days I flaahed ROMs 5 times.

And I'm not even using any backup, except for sms messages.

Takes less than 2 mins to push ~30 apps from market on computer to phone.
[HTC Wildfire S] jerdict:
i guess its the only way for that ROMs, i always do wiping whenever i changed to the new version of the ROM. just do backups, it will not be a major problem..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bacheezy:
I'm posting here because more often than not I am running T-Mobile roms. Anyhow, last night I heard about some update/patch att was releasing for 727. So I flashed my nandroid that I had created right after originally rooting my device, so totally stock att rom (with ciq). I then manually checked for update, accepted update, and delayed 1 hour. I spent the next hour flashing stock recovery and searching frantically; to no avail, for said update package on all SD cards. After 1 hour update took place without a problem, although I read many others update attempt had failed. Now with update complete I have new 'ICS style' lockscreen, no ciq (yes att removed), baseband is now I727UCLA3 & build number is 'GINGERBREAD.UCLA3'. So nothing weird yet, however...when I checked my APN out of curiosity I see regular 'ATT PTA', then a 'TETHERING

pcweb.tmobile.com'...

wtf. Is this what is normally listed for T-Mobile tethering apn?

Will post screenshot later.

Looking for a Rom recommendation for battery life and stability.

Prefer Sense 3.0 or Sense 2.1+ 3.0.

I have tried sense 3.5 and all are buggy.

Well I've tried Alex's hybrid Rom and it is fast and one of the most stable, but when I answer a call and then phone is locked I can't hang up without unclocking the phone. I've googled and searched, but haven't come up with a fix for this, so if anyone knows.

Some of the sense 3 Roms are excellent.

AceSMOD007 3D is stable and everything works, but a bit laggy.

Cool 3D sense is also good and fast. I have a 720 video fix that I found that works.

At present I'm on AN-Droid GB/Sense. First class fast and stable.

I hope this helps.

me i used until few days ago Sebastian's AIO ROM's now i use

[ROM][20.02.12][★★ SMS ★★ ] by ★ RSK TEAM ★ with AMAZE CAM [v.5.0][CM7R2][STOCK]

and i must admit that this ROM is very fast and stable. I really like it.

But it is very difficult to say which one is the best, depends very much about user too, preferences, colours, themes...

i think to find the answer it's better to make a pool with the most used ROM's and count the votes :D

Current using Alex's ROM. So far stable and everything pretty much works. Sense 3.5 is nice just some thing don't work when linking with contacts and I find with 3.5 slows down and locks up occasionally. Mind you I only used AIO up to 6.5 and 6.0.4.1 is the only sense 3.5 I have tried.

Hi there,

I've been using Samsung's XWJVI firmware (2.3.3) for a while and decided to have a look at custom ROMs. So I created a backup using CWM Recovery, flashed the latest Darkys ROM, played around with it and found that I'd want my old system back. After I rebooted the phone into recovery mode and chose to restore my backup, I did not exactly get what I expected.

What CWM successfully recovered:

- my wallpaper

- data such as photos taken by the camera

What CWM apparently forgot to restore:

- my launcher

- my apps

- my google account

- my settings

In other words, the current state of my system is close to factory defaults with slight traces of customization. What am I missing? Is my backup corrupt or am I restoring it incorrectly?

Ok so I installed Avast in root mode (i know, stupid.) I went to flash up to 902 and kept getting failures. Now I'm stuck in fastboot mode, RSD fails recovery flashing boot.img. I think this is where Avast locked the boot loader. Is there anything that can be done?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] brianhonaker:
I got stock back

Ok I have stock back. Now when I go to OTA 901 the update fails. I assume that this is because Avast has the boot image locked. I'm re-rooting and trying to install Avast again and then remove it. I'll update with any progress.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
The bootloader is locked to begin with. Avast didn't do that.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] brianhonaker:
Ok

So why does my OTA update fail?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
You may be missing a system file that is needed for the ota to install. Look up path saver and run that. I have a post about a week or so linking to the original path saver post since it wasn't in the bionic section. You may also be able to use motofail but I've never used that so I can't confirm. I had to use path saver to install the update.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] foxbat121:
You can't remove it unless you root your phone.

It has 14-day trial (starts when you first dial your phone). At the end of the trial period, you will get a prompt. Make sure you clicked NO button to permernantly disable it. It costs a few dollars per month to continue using it. So, you either purchase the service or disable it.

Is there anyway to re-enable this thing or once you opt out, that's it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] foxbat121:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] NR017:
I use Mr. Number, so I don't really need the City ID, but I do kinda like where it tells me where the caller is coming from, which makes spotting calls to block easy for me. I wish it was a one time fee only.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] foxbat121:
That's not gonna happen. AT&T spent all its effort to jam that into your phone so that they can make recurring service charges (as most of its bloatwares do). I agree it is nice thing to have, for free. But I usually don't pick up any phone calls unless I know the number that calls in.
