[Galaxy Tab 2 General] mbausch:
I found a different way

I bought "Siig Inc. Sync/charging Hub+reader For Galaxy" at Fry's today (for a different reason). It turns out, whether you are plugged into a PC USB port or an underpowered charger, the tablet can't tell. Whatever resistance or such tells it it's ok to fast charge, it gets that information from this contraption when you switch to charge. I lost my red x when I switched it. A car charger that claims 2.2 amps still gave me the red x, meaning that the tab restricts itself to .5 amps. You may conceivably draw too much from a crappy charger and burn it out (though I doubt it) but it's handy to have a cable that outsmarts Samsung.

I need more details on your problem like which ROM did you flash, how you flashed the ROM or whether you rooted your phone or not, etc. Did you do it via ROM Manager or CWM? Once I know more, I may be able to help. But as far as I know, I don't think your phone is bricked, so don't worry.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
I just wanted to thank everyone for the help with my previous question. Now that I got that fixed, I have another question regarding Titanium Backup Pro and Clock Work Mod for the galaxy S 4G. I downloaded the key for the Titan. Backup to make it Pro. I installed Titan. backup fine no problem. Them when I try to install the key that would make it Pro, a popup came up that said: "Titan. Backup Pro cannot be installed. Free up some space and try again." Well I searched around and found that I should clear the dalvik cache using Clock Work Mod.

My question is how would I install Clock Work Mod on my device and How would I go about clearing the davlik cache using Clock Work Mod?

Are there going to be problem after clearing the davlik cache? And if further on along the line, I want to flash ROM's, should I clear my davlik cache every time just to be safe?

Thank you for the help if you guys/gals can help out.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
I was wondering about flashing a ROM like the ICS port, the AOKP one. But I figured that it would be a lot safer if I had a backup of all my data first so I decided to get Titan. Backup. to do the job. and that was what landed me where I am right now.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
In case you are unaware, you cannot use the guide in the first post as Kies mini will not recognize rooted phones.

To be honest I wouldn't worry about all that if you end up going with gingerbread or ice cream sandwich just go for it
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
Ah, the thing is I'm also interested in Titan.'s other feature's like freezing apps and stuff like that. Add to that the fact that I bought the app already that would make the regular version turn into the Pro version.

No you did good to buy it....it will be very usefull in everything you do but with froyo lol you will never look back at....trust me.

Follow lumins advice and then play with gb for a bit you'll be happy.

I'm on aokp but going to ics,cm9,aokp straight from froyo is going to be a shocker
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
If you have bought titanium backup pro you should have gotten a file emailed to you that you put on your sdcard. Once its there just run regular TiB as its the same but the license will unlock other features.

As for keeping data across the different os's I personally dont recommend saving anything but non system apps. If you want to save texts use sms backup and restore from the play store. Otherwise start fresh that way you dont introduce new bugs into the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
Gremlin Remover or Heimdall KJ6 One-Click. The reason is they will both flash bootloaders for you. I referred the OP to the Heimdall One-Click guide because of the more detailed directions and pictures.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
So I should just flash a ROM like GB or the AOKP Team Acid ROM anyway right and forget about Froyo? Then install Clock Work Mod on my device or does Clock Work Mod come with the ROM's themselves? If I flash a new ROM, will my dalvik cache be cleared so that I would have enough space to install things? How would I be able to save my contacts, just save them to my SIM card and they should be fine right? Would flashing a new ROM take up my phones internal memory?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
You need to flash a gb rom with bootloaders if you are on froyo. Otherwise you will be back upset your phone is broke.

A custom recovery is included in all roms. Once you flash part of the instructions are to factory reset/ data wipe in recovery.

Back you contacts up to the sdcard if you dont use google contacts otherwise you wont be able to access them from the ICS variants.

Yes like I stated when installing a new rom part of it is doing a factory reset/data wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] farmerbb:
If you really do want to stay on Froyo and you want CWM... then this should work for you:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1099374

But yeah, you should definitely consider upgrading to Gingerbread asap, *especially* if you're wanting to flash custom ROMs later on down the line. Use the Heimdall One-Click sticked in the development forum. :)

Eollie i bought tb pro and all that's done is it applies as an app nothing different than when you get tb originally from the market
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Lol if you do gremlin remover one click you don't have to make an extra step of flashing a cwr kernel.

As I'm aware heimdall doesn't do it
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
I have the pro version too. However All I do is install the regular version and the license I was emailed is on my sdcard. Not sure if they have changed the process. Maybe I need to email the dev again.

@buntobo you might need to contact the dev and explain your not able to install the app. They are great people and will help you out. You will need the transaction number.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:

I should just get Gingerbread and forget about Froyo? Thanks a lot guys, you've cleared up a lot of the confusion that I was having. But I was wondering if I followed the instructions from the link, will it Clock Work Mod built in it? Or, rather, what does the following link do besides upping my device from Froyo to Gingerbread? Will I have to get a ROM that is compatible with Gingerbread that has Clock Work Mod built in to have it available to me? Will my device stay rooted?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
If you follow that link you will have to also flash a seperate kernel ..one which has cwmr.

If u do the other it will do it all in one shot

Either way you choose is fine..both do the job..eventually.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
No I referred you to gremlin remover....I've never had luck getting heimdall on my computer

I'm very familiar with Odin and gremlins Odin one click....it works very well and eliminates a step or two compared to the heimdall.

Its your choice to decide how to go about getting to where you wanna be with your phone I just wanted you to know that there are several ways to do it....I use it a lot when going back and forth and when I soft brick and so on....its easy and less steps when I know I'll be flashing something over it anyhow.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
Sorry for making you stick around so long, makes me feel like i am wasting your time which you could spend elsewhere. Thanks a lot for clearing things up Shortbus-Driver. I'm going to follow Lumin 30's guide, the first part of it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1470716 and get my device from stock Froyo to Gingerbread then, not the Heimdall One-Click part.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
If you are reading this, Shortbus-Driver, should I get the custom kernel following the guide by lumin30? or should I just get Gremlin Remover right now?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
If you are already rooted and on GB - you might as well flash the kernel with SGS Kernel Flasher. Gremlin Remover was recommended as an either/or option before rooting.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
Ah thank you for clearing it up, yup, I followed the first link in your sig and have a custom kernel with ClockWorkMod. I'm going to flash a custom ROM, might as well. Was wondering, to put this out there in the same topic so as not to congest the forum with multiple topics for no reason, how would I go from a custom ROM for Gingerbread to the AOKP Ice Cream Sandwich? Just wondering after I play around with all that Gingerbread has to offer.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Heh good job....sorry I don't get on here much during the weekends

Yea at that point was good to flash a kernel.

I'm glad lumin showed up to help ya out with that.

Aokp has a lot to offer ....many more tweaks than you ever imagined coming from froyo lol.

Gingerbread is great compared to froyo and you will get better battery life on it than aokp.

If you are like I was.....I use to be on my phone damn near 24/7.....I would average 8-9 hrs of battery on gb...

But with aokp that average went to 4-5 hrs lol...

Now I love aokp but I also have 5 batteries and an external charger so battery life means nothing to me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Wodensman:
Battery life on AOKP has been greatly improved. There's no harm in at least trying it and seeing if you like it. Just make sure to follow the directions in the OP. If you want to stay on GB, I recommend Valhalla Black. I think it is actually to be found in the General section, or just search for it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] buntobo:
Thanks I installed the FB's Valhalla Black ROM, but when I try to get into Voodoo sound, a pop up appears saying that the author/creator broke Voodoo sound? Should I just get Voodoo sound from the Play store instead then? Will it cause any problem?

Also was wondering if I decided to go from FB's Valhalla Black Rom to the AOKP Ice Cream Sandwich ROM, how will I go about it? Just wondering about it, any directions would be greatly appreciated. Will I have to backup my device every time I flash ROM's? And If I do backup my device, will have to do the one click Gremlin remover to get rid of stuff left behind by previous ROM's every time I flash?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Read the op of the rom your going to flash.

No you don't need to flash gremlin remover for every flash,I use it to go back to bml roms from mtd roms and that's it. I don't use it as a gremlin remover.....but just for goin back to stock .
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Spectral1991:
Anyone noticed that the new ICS kernel is taking up A LOT of battery life? Even on standby it's draining a lot.

Any way to fix that? Or i'll just have to live with a really crappy battery life?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] greyanaroth:
welcome to the ics battery crap. You'll lose many hours of your life trying to figure this one out... essentially, there are two basic directives:

1. clean install (FR, cache, dalvik wipe)

2. wait for a few days for the calibration to happen.

there's a bunch of other suggestions as well... Oh and your screen might also run extremely hot sometimes!

Enjoy :-)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Amzran:
A lot of us are getting hit by it. Sometimes the cache wipe and factory reset stuff works and sometimes it doesnt. Motorola has some new ICS builds coming down the pipe. Latest one is .215 and people who have flashed to it have seen dramatic battery improvements (back to how it was with GB).

So hang tight, help is on the way. ;)

Download titanium backup app and use that to backup the apps you want to keep.

Plug device into your computer via USB, navigate to the TB folder, and copy it to your computer.

Eject that device, plug in the other and copy the TB file to it. Eject it.

Open TB and find the folder. All your apps and their data should be there.

Hit menu, batch mode, and select the apps you want to install. Let it do its thing.

If I remember correctly, sometimes data isn't compatible between two different devices. If you have problems with an app try uninstalling it with TB then reinstall without data.

Hope that helps.
