Best way I have found to do this is to go to Settings > Backup & reset

Once there delete the existing account that exist.....

Wait a few minutes and it'll prompt you to put a backup account in....then reenter the same account.

This will prompt google to look at all your apps you currently own and the ones on your device and if not there will download it for you.

I discovered this when I factory reset my phone and when I restarted my phone it connected to a wi-fi network that required a sign-in process and as a result google attempted to download but was unable to.

Hope this helps.

Has anyone found any solution? Cause I have Titanium backup pro but I have read that it is not the best thing to restore apks... better reinstall them (especially for battery life)... There applist apps in market but they just store the link they don't download them automatically....

And I have apps on 2 seperate google accounts so just restoring during first sign in doesn't work well:(
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] birddseedd:
Titanium backup is great. i use it. works great for installing apk's. but if you want to do it through the app store you have to let it run right when you first have the option. if you try to to it later youll have to do them all individualy
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] killchain:
With free license, unfortunately, yeah, that's it, but PRO allows you to batch install and restore data for a chosen amount of apps. It also allows a creation of a recovery-flashable image, which is, from my experience, the fastest to deploy, but takes a while to create.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] telamon100:
Well I install several ROMs and I found out that sometimes the Google Play store messes up before restoring all your apps. What I do is got into setup and remove my google account and then just readd it and off it goes downloading and syncing all your apps.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] killchain:
I've yet to try to see what happens if I detach apps from Play Store using TB. If it would prevent Play from rushing to download all the stuff (usually 100+ apps) when I first boot up a new install, it would be nice.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liud:
Hey guys, I just rooted my DZ and now I’m ready to switch to a custom rom (I’m currently on stock 2.2 sense rom). After doing some reading I think I want ILWT. As I have never done this before I would feel more comfortable knowing what I’m doing rather that regretting something latter. So here goes :)

First of all, if I first wipe data/cache with superwipeG2 and do a nandroid backup, will the backed up rom work after restore? (I would like to back up the stock rom, without the apps I installed).

Second, I know I need to wipe everything with superwipeG2 before going to ILWT, but should I also do a factory reset?

The most important thing is will ILWT run ok without eng-hboot, as I did not flash it during rooting (I didn’t feel comfortable with that)? From what I understand ILWT will automatically flash a new kernel with all kinds of goodies? I don’t need a super extra fast rom, I just want it to be reasonably stable so I’m guessing I’ll go with ILWT kernel. Also, how wide spread are the GPS issues, does everyone suffer from it or it just happens to some people?

So what do you think about my choice and is there anything else I should know before I proceed? All your answers would be much appreciated, thanks :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvzuno:
ILWT is the best and stable ROM if you ask me. I just recently left it to play with the ICS ROMs floating around. I had no issues with the GPS while I ran ILWT. I have GPS issues now with the ICS ROMs, but I expected that. I would flash the hboot if I were you. While it seems intimidating, it actually isn't and very easy to do as long as you follow all the instructions on the rooting guide.

I didn't do a factory reset, but I did do a superwipe and wiped cache/data/davlik just to be safe.

As far as the OEM ROM goes, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1442988 is a GREAT resource to go back to OEM specs and has a nifty directory with all the official OEM ROMs.

Hope this helps a bit. I'm also a noob at this ROM thing and have learned a ton while reading all the info on this forum.:D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirozizo:
ILWT is the best in stability and speed, and it is a super extra fast rom :D

i think superwipeG2+ will wipe your /system partition too, which contains the rom, so if you super wipe, then backup, you won't be backing up anything... maybe

what i'll doo is just wipe data/factory reset and then flash ILWT, and then reboot... that's it :D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liud:
Thanks for the advice guys. I’ll flash the rom first thing in the morning :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirozizo:
No prob... I'm happy to help :D

i didn't mean to flame you, nor to mock you in any kind of way
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
If you want a nandroid of your current rom without the apps and such just do a factory reset before you do the nandroid. Of course this may be silly for you would have the same affect as just flashing the rom later. Get an engineering hboot, well worth it. Then do a superwipe (I also wipe everythin else cause I'm a little ocd, even fastboot -w) and then flash away. Remeber when you have a rom the way you like it, even a week or more for now, do a backup and then if you screw up in the future you'll be saved
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
ILWT is about as fast and stable as they come. If you are used to Sense, and like things such as the Sense widgets and camera, you may miss them. Otherwise, ILWT is one of the best out there, and you will not be disappointed.

Anyway, if you make a nandroid, you can always go back if you don't like ILWT (or any other ROM for that matter). Nandroid is pretty awesome, as it will restore the complete image of the system when you backed up, with apps and data intact, just as you left it before flashing the new ROM.

I'd say the GPS issue only happens to a small minority of people on ILWT and other versions of CM7. I didn't have the issue with the GPS not connecting at all, but apparently some people do. And its an issue that has popped up for some people from time to time, on various CM7 builds in the past. I did have an issue with GPS fix being slower than on stock Sense (maybe 2 minutes versus 5-10 seconds), and the following fix did the trick, and got me consistent GPS fix in seconds:

Hi. I am using TransX ROM. I tried installing viber but keep getting "Application not Installed". I went to Android Market but it says not compatible.

Anyone has a solution?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Viber Team:
Viber

Hi,

This is a member of the Viber R&D Team!

If you are running Viber on a customized ROM, it may result in side effects. At this stage, due to the large variety of customized ROMs available, we support only the basic ones, such as CM7 and MIUI.

We are continuously working to adapt Viber to more and more ROMS, but meanwhile -you might want to contact the ROM developer for further support - they may be able to resolve this issue.

If anyone has any questions/suggestions for Viber, please feel free to let us know, and we will address them shortly.

Thanks,

Viber Team
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] xefi:
Thank You Viber Team. I have tried most cm7 roms and this is the first time that I've encountered.

Yes. I think its TransX ROM problem.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Viber Team:
Then as we recommended, it might be a good idea to contact the ROM developers. Unfortunately there is not much we can do to assist with this issue :(
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
Does Viber have any dependencies ?

If yes it might be just what the ROM is lacking

This was sent from a Galaxy Ace. Problem?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Viber Team:
What specifically do you mean by "dependencies" ?

Viber "looks" for certain features in a phone that it needs to utilize, such as the microphone settings. If the custom ROM completely alters or even overrides those, then Viber unfortunately cannot "know" or guess what the phone's settings are.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Stoneybridge:
Ok dumb question, i unlocked the network sim lock on my neo by the test point method cos i hardlocked the sim by entering the pass wrong too many times.

did this unlock the bootloader?

Or to put it another way, to unlock a hardlocked phone you unlock the bootloader using the testpoint method?

sorry if this sounds stupid, ive been been trying to search for some way of testing to see if the bootloader is unlocked by this method but carn't find any :P
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Stoneybridge:
Aye thx for the reply, i know the process of unlocking the bootloader with the various methods,

As i understand it, unlocking the bootloader also unloacks the sim lock?

....so i was was wondering the way i unlocked the simlock on the phone with some software and using the testpoint was actually unlocking the bootloader with the side effect of unlocking the sim too?

I didn't ask how to unlock the bootloader!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mpiekp:
What software?

The answer is most likely you have, especially if you used testpount.

Dial

Should show rooting status:yes if unlocked.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Stoneybridge:
It was x unlock solutions.. put your phone modal in then follow the vid with some tweezers etc

Also when you sim unlock via bootloader replacement(xunlock, omnius or setool), that text changes, you can guarantee it was no before you unlocked, but s1tool or just trying a fastboot command is more reliable

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GentlePalms:
Hey guys,

been a long time lurker, but I've ran into a bit of a snag that I need some help with.

missus broke her charger and used something else to charge the phone and after a bit the phone just went pop and turned off and wont switch back on again.

There is no visible damage to the phone whatsoever.

Is there some sort of mechanism designed to protect the phone from the surge or whatever it was?

I would hate for the main board to be completely knackered :S

I've been reading around and there is a USB board that connects to the rest of the phone? will it be just a case of replacing that or is the phone shafted? :S

Thanks folks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
Depends on what kind of charger she used. I do know that there are some micro-usb chargers/cable whose pin connections are different than the ones that come with the i9100.

If a different battery and a oem charger doesnt turn on the phone at all, your only option may be to send it to samsung for repair.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GentlePalms:
Thanks for the reply.

She's tried charging it on the PC and it wont work.

not to keen on sending it to samsung as they'll charge an arm and a leg.

What do you guys think? Will the damage be limited to the USB board or will this cost me any more?

Im not at home right now to be able to open it up so will rely on your expert opinions!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Honestly, how would we know without looking at it ? Something is blown which is stopping the phone from powering up, what, is anyone's guess.

Take it to a mobile repair shop if you don't want to send it to Samsung & get a quote.

Ok. You already got an answer, so frankly, you deserve this.

I reckon the phone is totally shot. Not replaceable. Foolishly using an incompatible charger has turned the phone into a $500+ 135 gram hunk of useless plastic. Stuffed, in a word. Time for a new phone.

Now, for the slow kids up the back, you put too many zzzzs into the phone. Something burnt out. I don't know anyone on here who has the ability to view the innards of your phone over distance.

Take it to a phone shop.

I can say it slower if that didn't get through ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GentlePalms:
Theres no need to be arrogant about it.

Not once did I ask for you to use your magic skills to look inside the housing of my wifes phone. At this moment in time, even I do not have this ability.

I asked for your "opinion" as to what the damage could potentially be, google it if you require a definition.

I still thank you for delivering to me your opinion (eventually)

I'm away from home for a few weeks so I can't have a look inside the phone so just trying to get some feelers as to the likelihood of damage byond the USB flex cable.

Hey guys,

I have an update.

I've finally gotten home and managed to pull the sucker apart.

No corrosion on any parts of the phone whatsoever.

However I have noticed something about the actual USB port that is stuck onto the USB flex cable

If I face the socket away from me, there are 7 joints that solder the port onto the usb board. The Joint on the far right, I wouldn't say it looks burnt, but it just looks a little dull compared to the rest, and definately looks slightly different.

This joint has a white arrow pointing towards it printed on the PCB of the actual board.

I tried taking some photos but they're not exactly high res.

Unfortunately I can't determine if the dullness of this joint is significanlty enough to denote damage or whether thats how it should normally look like.

Does anybody know what it should look like?

I tried googling for pictures but there arent any clear ones that show this. :S

Cheers.
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
So I've been messing around lately with cooking a ROM for my wife out of the latest TMOUS 3.32.531.14 RUU. Since I'm no dev, I decided to just run the thing through dsixda's kitchen and be done with it. Don't need anything fancy, just a few things like init.d execution, insecure boot, deodex and root.

I've tried this a couple of different ways, by running the original RUU-extracted rom.zip through the kitchen, and by running Steve0007's rooted TMOUS ROM through the kitchen. Both times, the ROM comes out cooked with no root. Running any app that requires root hangs the phone and trying to update the SU binary just fails because root access isn't there. Dsixda's post suggests to make sure that USB debugging is on, but yea, it's on after these ROMs are cooked.

I realize that dsixda left the scene sometime last year and his kitchen might not be completely compatible with our Pyramid ICS ROMs. Are there other tools I could use to cook a ROM? Or are there tutorials out there to do it manually without the use of a kitchen? How are our devs doing it? I've searched high and low to no avail. Any help is greatly appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
Just in case anyone cares or plans to do something similar. :rolleyes:

I found out in the end that the root scripts that dsixda kitchen uses somehow breaks root in our ICS roms, at least in the one I worked with. I ended up using Steve0007's pre-rooted zip and just edited the ramdisk myself to get insecure boot.img. Everything else I used from the kitchen like busybox run parts (init.d), deodex, etc., worked fine. I did have a little hitch in the updater-script after the ROM was cooked, so I'll just say that the kitchen isn't perfect when it converts back and forth.

I learned way more than I wanted to during this process, but it's kind of cool to run a ROM that you cooked yourself on your own phone. :cool:
