I tried to backup my phone's data using CWM recovery but it gave me an error saying couldn't backup android secure. Probably because I have hardly 150 MB on my SD card which is a 4 GB card.

How much do you guys think I need to backup the whole thing? Like for data and stuff? What I mean is, that I need everything to be the same as of now if I did a restore backup if I did have one.

And also, should I do a factory reset and then backup my stock rom? Because I really don't want to lose any data.

I am completely clueless on how everything in android works. I'm more of a windows PC guy, so if can relate some of the android terms to PC terms, I may get the hang of it.

Thanks a lot guys. For listening to my ****ty requests.

Would it backup everything? Like apps, messages, contacts, etc?

One more question. I used Link2SD and made a partition of about 250 MB. Now I'm going to buy an 8 GB microSD card and partition it to 1 GB and the rest. How do I transfer stuff from the old partition to the new one on the other SD? Without breaking apps?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sinnerz2000:
That's why a class 10 SD card is recommended. All my apps are on the partition and I don't see any slow down. Plus we can use Widgets too if they're on SD card partition.

If it such scripts slow down your phone with class 10 sdcard then mine should just die with class 4 1.5gb DataOnExt lol.I have so many apps installed without any real toouble.Besides none of the ICS roms for a5 are bug free.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] coolprateek.kumar:
Then you haven't seen the speed of ICS.

Wait a few days for bugless rom
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sinnerz2000:
There is no such thing as bugless or lagless, the truth is ics takes way too much ram no matter what optimization u do its still not a good os for a phone with 512mb ram, even the ics on the dual core a9+ sucks coz even though the processor and gpu is good the ram is bringing the overall performance of the phone down coz its on ics.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] coolprateek.kumar:
Bugless and lagless are 2 different thing.

If you know how to make droid manage ram then only you can enjoy it lagless.

Even if we consider that ics provide very less free ram, which app of yours take so much memory huh.

In gb my free ram went below 150 mb while browsing and listening songs while on my ICS it rarely falls below 200 mb

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sinnerz2000:
I never said they're the same, but ppl keep claiming their roms are bugless and lagless so said that. If ur a software dev u would understand that every software has bugs, big or small it doesn't matter but everything has bugs, and lag can happen even on quad core devices. There are many bugs still on ics, the biggest one being lagging or freezing on lock screen, everyone here has seen it so don't say that ur rom doesn't have it, every rom has it nd this issue is on other devices too.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] coolprateek.kumar:
I have used 10 ics roms till now and only 2 had this problem.

And sorry to disappoint you, my rom really doesn't lag.....and I'm not boasting it.....even testers have their saying.

I made this rom so that I could always stay on ics.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] coolprateek.kumar:
He never told it lags....he told that he has class 10 sd that's why it DOESN'T lag....below ones will lag
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sinnerz2000:
Video won't help, ill notice it only if I use it, nd I've used 20 ics roms and this lock screen issue comes up at some point or the other. Also I haven't noticed my battery heat up even once on any rom, at least AFAIK the a7+ doesn't have heating issues.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] coolprateek.kumar:
If you haven't notice battery heat then you:-

1. Haven't played HD games.

2. Haven't used your phone while charging.

3. Haven't browsed net using Google chrome or dolphin with background music.

4. Haven't open 2 non HD games at once.

5. Haven't used rom without task killer or hibernator.

I hve done all this on bm nd always faced heating problem

but not in point 1&4

Press thnx for every help :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sinnerz2000:
Everyone has done those at some point. But I see u fail to understand how android works, when u open say for eg 2 apps like u mentioned in point 4, the foreground app is given higher preference therefore the 2nd app in the background is set into hibernation mode and by doing so takes very little ram and cpu, and all the saved ram and processing power is transferred to the foreground running app for optimal performance. So in a way u can say that android gives importance to the foreground app and the background apps hardly take any CPU or ram, so no matter how many apps u open 10 or 20 ur phone will not heat up. I hope u understood , I'm not really good at explaining things.

which file / app is responsible for multisim setting?

lots of rom take forever to load multisim menu, any fix for that?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sinnerz2000:
Stop what, I'm trying to clear a misconception, were not arguing.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] coolprateek.kumar:
No argument ...just calm discussion.

Take for example 2 games....A and B.

You have a total of 280 mb free ram.

Rest for system apps which can't be closed.

A takes 130 mb and B takes 130 as default.

Now you open both games.

Switch to game A.

When you play that game, due to interaction, it will now occupy 130+30=160mb.

Now total ram by GAMES= 160+130=290mb which is greater than your total free ram.

Now in general roms, android will kill the game B to clear ram.

Now you got bored from game A but don't wanna start it again from loading screen so you minimize it.

Now you switch to game B.

Now android has to process a lot to make memory for this game and in turn kills game A and you lose your progress.

In this switching or better multitasking, battery heats up and you face lag (your lock screen one) + battery drain.

Now this is where my rom comes...it'll prevent the killing of apps and hence android will swiftly switch between apps preventing battery heat up.

I'll not tell how it's gona do it before the release of my rom. But I'm sure this rom won't be the one like you have used before.
