When you open TiBu, hit the menu button---->Backup data to XML, and from there you can backup your bookmarks, SMS and MMS Messages, Call logs and WiFi APs. It wil ask you where you want to save them; if you have dropbox or GDrive installed, you will have them listed and will be able to upload them there, or you can save the backup locally to your device. Contacts are synced to your gmail account, remember it's an Android device. When you setup your google account, it automatically downloads your contacts back to your device. And yes, TiBu backs up your progress levels in games and such, I'm just not sure if it will restore correctly due to the jump between OS versions (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

I got JB up and running, but it can't see any of the files on my external SD.

I pulled the SD and mounted it on a laptop, and the filesystem is good.

Anyone else see this? I thought it was weird when Apollo and the Gallery couldn't find music/pics...

4.3 is quite usable. There is a strange graphical glitch that happens from time to time where parts or all of the screen go black, but as soon as that part of the screen is changed (redrawn?) It corrects. Also I have had no luck with focal. Sometimes it takes one picture correctly, but if I try two in a row it force closes, and then the camera is unusable with any app. Sometimes this happens on the first picture taken. Stock camera works fine.

BTW, if you have been reading i9100 forum, 0824 broke the recovery (actually more than that). I am not sure if codeworkx can help with providing the same kernel update to fix this, but for meanwhile, do not attempt to go into the recovery. Your phone will get into blank state no matter what. There isn't a new build yet, so I cannot confirm that auto-update would work (I am lazy to try out with my older build), but I assume it is broken.

If you have done so, you can at least recover your phone back to working state by following download mode procedure:

1. plug in your phone to PC using usb cable.

2. Hold down "volume down" button while holding down the power button.

My phone doesn't go into the download mode when it is in blank state. I will try the same while the phone is in working state later today when I get a chance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iXNyNe:
Ran into the recovery issue. Anyone on 8/24 is screwed.

Here's how I got around it.

Download mobile Odin

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2055183&d=1371667447

Download the extra file (flash kernel)

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=798186&d=1322517562

Download 8/23 cm official nightly (or any 10.2 other than 8/24)

Use a file manager to extract boot.IMG from the zip

Use mobile Odin to flash the boot.IMG as kernel

After reboot, boot into recovery, install previous nightly, profit

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iXNyNe:
8/13 is 10.1

You'll have to use cwm to format /system and probably /data and /cache in order to go back to anything 10.1. Don't forget gapps as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] geicogecko:
Thanks. Yeah, I didn't realize all that was required to go back to 10.1. I had only flashed the earlier gapps. The issue that I needed to do that for has been resolved though, so no need now.

Looks like my mass storage problem is also resolved. The phone isn't reading the external SD, so I guess it's gone bad again. Second time I've had one go bad now. Pretty funny considering this is a PNY class 10.

build notes???

Jenkins is fully automated, with the exception of RC/stable releases.

Since the project leads decided to tag all Exynos4 devices for stable even though they aren't, Exynos4 devices got an RC build. Bug reports are accepted against the 10.1.3 RC1 builds for these devices.

Bug reporting procedures are documented at: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_The_JIRA_project_management_system

Any issues you may have, such as games crashing, should be reported here. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS and be specific. One bug report per game that has issues, and search to see if an issue has been reported with the game in question already.

If you're going from a 10.1 nightly to 10.1 rc you can dirty flash, wouldn't kill you to wipe cache.

Question: I have two i777s, both on 8/26 and trying to flash to 9/1. I am unable to get into cwm recovery. After the white gs2 logo I just get a blank screen. Actually its stuck there, even after a battery pull and reboot. My workaround to boot android is to plug in to a charger. After the green battery shows up, holding down power for 8 sec will boot back into os. But still no cwm.

Edit: on one phone I was able to get in to 3e (recovery or download mode?) , got an error, and was able to get back into cwm. Weird. Still can't on phone 2.

it doesnt happen to everyone.

i have flashed every 10.2 i777 nightly in order one after another up to and including 9/1 and my /sdcard is fine...

i even have an external sdcard in and i leave it in during updates (some people in i9100 thread seem to say this causes issues for them)

the only issues i've come across related to flashing were the 8/24 build's kernel/recovery issue (which i posted how to get around using mobile odin) and once on 8/26 the cmupdater method to update didn't automatically do it's thing so i had to manually boot to recovery and install 9/1 myself.

i did notice the change from the use of /emmc and /sdcard to /storage/sdcard0 and /storage/sdcard1 in recovery, which honestly makes more sense anyway, but nothing was erased or formatted.

anyway, im sorry for your loss, but keep in mind the devs certainly didnt sit there thinking "let's **** up this user's **** on purpose! that'll be great!" and as you mentioned it seems like they have likely fixed the problem pretty much right away
