Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

I saw on Siyah's thread a good tip about partitioning it but personally don't see the need since I'm on NeatRom :)

Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

Hey ESD, great to see you. :D:thumbup: I am alright, mate.. Just busy :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Many40:
My way for backup/restore is that I backup/restore my rom on the same ver of CWM recovery. Steps I undertake are as follows (being on Siyah):

- CWM recovery

- flash latest PhilZ without any wipes

- reboot recovery

- make sure /preload is marked as "included"

- perform backup (or restore)

- flash Siyah back without wipes

- reboot

Maybe not so perfect/sophisticated solution but always works for me well.

Many thanks guys. I have reverted back to LSJ. :good:

When I changed lock screen wallpaper and fix permissions in CWM my phone goes to boot loop. It happens on different kernels. Does anyone have this problem?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] viliasa:
Last PhillZ kernel did not helped to me. Problem appear anyway.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Many40:

Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

Try to format preload and flash Rom without wipe.

And do you have TWDVSF.apk frozen?

Have you changed modem?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kantjer:
I haven't done any real extensive testing on this so I might be wrong.

From what I have seen on Dori and most likely also on Siyah the included recovery simply doesn't support the backup and restore of the /preload.

You can check this easily by making a backup in recovery and check the contend with Nandroid Manager, you will see that /preload isn't included in the backup, so no way it can be restored.

If you restore using a Nandroid without /preload included everything gets restored only /preload will remain untouched. So as long as you don't try to restore a Nandroid from an other LSJ or LS8 ROM you will probably be just fine, except offcourse when /preload itself was damaged.

If you use a tool based on "online nandroid backup" like Orange Backup the /preload will be included in the backup but then you still have the problem that Dori and Siyah don't include it in the restore.

So AFIK the only options you have if you want a full re-storable Nandroid is to use Many40 solution, or hawkerpaul's GS2PreloadBackup/Restore script (my prefered solution)

From what I have seen, but not tested yet, is that the /preload backup made by Orange Backup is exactly the same as the one made with hawkerpaul's script so in theory it might even be possible to restore the /preload made by OB with hawkerpaul's restore script by copying OB's preload tar to the directory the script uses.

EDIT: never tried you're "mount 2nd Rom system and 2nd Rom data prior to restoring backup" suggestion, I don't see how that could work, but you never know ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] viliasa:
I used rom nuke and then installed last NeatRom. And enough just change lock screen wallpaper and fix permissions and got boot loops.

Modem did not changed
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kmaq:
i am on dorimanx v7.46 no issue changing lockscreen wallpaper.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] electricsheepdreamer:
Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

For what I have seen preload backup is included with OB (.tar file size)

When I tried to restore it without mounted 2ndRom system and data it restored /system, data and boot partition but skipped on android.secure because it couldn't find it.

After I had helped it find them, everything went well.

I keep HawkerPaul's preload backup just in case.

In theory practice shouldn't make a difference but practice proved different ;)

Great job, BTW :thumbup::thumbup:

Hi Electricsheepdreamer!

Thanks a lot this app looks great. My damn stupidity, never thought of the possibility that there might be an App that can do this. thought it needs to be in the ROM.

I definietly try this! Thanks! (this is very positive, as the whole community here...great spirit)

Hi everyone,

I've tried all three "backtokill" mods for LS8 and I can't make any of them to work properly. Some do nothing, some make reboots... I've tried full wipe and switch Philz/Jeboo kernel... I just want a simple "backtokill" mod working... please...

Use the one from

(LS8_SkipSongs_BackToKill_4way.zip) which is also available in ApriliaM3 files repository. What didn't work for me was: "LS8_SkipSongs_BackToKill.zip" (skip songs worked, back to kill not)

Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

I have done it before on my Galaxy ACE as it had a ridiculous 158MB internal memory :eek:

My friend actually did it for me because at the time i knew absolutely nothing (i know, ha ha,:D i still don't:p) and he had PC.

He partitioned ext sd card and then i used Link2sd to move apps to extsd partition.

You will have a better chance of learning how to do it on ACE forum as most of them do it. :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kantjer:
Ah but that's an other issue with cwm used by Dori and Siyah that I forgot about. android.secure isn't backupped correctly

As long as you don't move apps to your sd-card it doesn't matter.

TBH I think that cwm is starting to show it's age, not much development there :crying:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] electricsheepdreamer:
Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

Many, could it be because of JB Reloaded non-patch version because I have BackToKill but not SkipSongs working. JB Reloaded vulgaris here.

This one (LS8_SkipSongs_BackToKill_4way.zip) adds backtokill working, but also multiwindow. Besides, when the phone starts up I get a hot boot (samsung logo and TW reinits). Has anyone got this too?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] electricsheepdreamer:
Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

I'm talking about Sale's one. MultiWindow,WhacktoKill,AOSPls work but SkipSongs don't. Or is that just me:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ApriliaM3:
No bootloops here, what-so-ever on PhilZ... NeatROM Lite or Full.

No my skip songs doesn' t work either but i'm just glad to have a working back to kill :)

Just flashed PhilZ Touch v4.00-b39 Odin version, and no bootloop whatsoever.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Many40:
TBH, don't think so. Just compared roughly content of installation packages of both JB reloaded and LS8_SkipSongs_BackToKill_4way.zip and haven't noticed any conflicts (they change different files).

This mod what I mentioned above gave me fully working skip songs+back to kill combo on JB reloaded.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gozzaa:
i really wonder how you do this magical thing with not getting bootloop on philz ;)

share your knowledge :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] electricsheepdreamer:
Re: [ROM][CWM][25Jan]JB XWLS8 NeatROM Full/LITE/Mods/Themes

Oh, then you need to flash LS8_MultiWindow_SkipSongs_BackToKill_AOSPls.zip.

You know where to find it ;)

Edit: Sorry, wasn't reading well, thanks for the info:p

---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

Change your battery and/or format preload when switching from LSJ to LS8.

Edit: I forgot ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Many40:
OK, but why if everything I need works for me on the mod I already flashed? It's pblasi who can't make it working :)

BTW before I flashed this: LS8_SkipSongs_BackToKill_4way.zip I was looking for simple back to kill only. That's why tried this: LS8_SkipSongs_BackToKill.zip, but as I wrote only skip songs worked. Then I found the other one above - back to kill works.

TBH I didn't know that it includes multiwindow (didn't need that) but it's not a big problem.

Edit: haven't red your edit before posting this :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gozzaa:
i always use the nuke/wipe scripts when changing roms, wich formats the preload.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ApriliaM3:
I think some people here are of the opinion that bootloops on LS8 are the rule rather than the exception when in fact it's the opposite.

I've been running NeatROM Lite v4.2 for around 4 or 5 days now and prior to that I was running NeatROM Full since it was released.

I have not experienced a single FC, crash, bootloop or issue since installation.

I even restored an earlier nandroid of NeatROM v3.5 for a few minutes to test the dialer DTMF tones and then restored by LS8 nandroid without issue.

I'm not sure of the download numbers and maybe Sasa can give some insight here, but from preliminary checks on my site and other Dev-Host mirrors, it must be between 5,000 and 10,000 downloads.

Now if we add up all the people that have come here complaining of bootloops, I doubt we would have more than 100 or 200... and some of them appear to have no clue what they're doing anyway judging by some of the questions they ask :D

From my perspective, there's no secret... Start with a clean base no matter what method you choose to achieve this.

Flash hawkerpaul's script or flash the stock ROM with Odin or full wipe everything including preload... or do all 3... whatever.

After that, don't install any mods for a couple of days... and be wary of restoring apps using any method other than a fresh install and setup.

I never restore anything using Titanium or similar... I fresh install and setup everything and then I nandroid as soon as it's completed.

The only mod I've installed is hawkerpaul's black status bar with blue toggles and new WiFi and data icons.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gozzaa:
mh thats exactly the same i did. fresh install, wipe everything, installed all apps through playstore.

after about 2 or 3 days i got this bootloop. i was using philz kernel.

i really wonder what is causing this problem, since "alot" people have this problem.

atm iam giving alliance rom 6.0 another try with jeboo 1.3

Hey Neat Family,

First of all, thanks for all your work. It´s really hard to follow this post, pages and pages to read always. But I finally did it, and reach the end :laugh:.

I´m using various mods, working fine. The last one was LS8_SkipSongs_BackToKill_4way, and everything is working great.

I´m only missing the ink effect, and torch on lockscreen. You may find most of them separately, but they share the same files, so it´s imposible for noobs make everything working together.. It will be great if Sale :fingers-crossed:could make one similar as the one he did for LSJ, it was simply perfect.

I mean this one:
