[Paranoid Android Q&A] foxguard:
Hi,

im sure this is a simple thing that i have missed but please help.

I was running PA 3.99, have made a backup using TWRP.

I have then wiped the phone, installed the new PA & GApp and rebooted. All is fine, I now have a clean fresh install of the latest PA.

Now what I wanted or at least thought was correct to do was restore using TWRP.... now this is my first mistake as all his does is restore it back to 3.99! DOH

So i then try again but with out wiping the system part. This time i keep 4+ but get stuck on a bootloader.

Basically all i am trying to do is restore my data IE all my exchange accounts and contacts etc which I thought would be done with the data part of TWRP.

All apps have re-installed with the help of google+ so is there a way to get the missing data back at all?

Thanks
[Paranoid Android Q&A] Pirateghost:
TWRP restores should not be done unless you want to restore the whole thing.

You have contradicting information, and clearly a lack of understanding the partition/folder structure layout of Android. The rom flash automatically WIPES system because /SYSTEM is where the ROM is stored. /DATA is where your data, apps, appdata, etc are stored. You should use Titanium Backup for backing up your apps/contacts (contacts should be synced with Google and not require backing up or restoring), call logs, mms/sms, etc.

I personally updated a galaxy nexus maguro, and 2 grouper (nexus 7 2012 wifi) from 3.99 to 4.0 with the OTA app, without wiping anything. From your 3.99 you should be able to do nothing more than install the new rom (gapps is even optional as the script keeps those installed anyway) and boot. dont wipe or restore anything. If that fails you should use the Titanium backup method instead.
[Paranoid Android Q&A] Pirateghost:
ugh. duplicate post
[Paranoid Android Q&A] foxguard:
Thanks. Yes I am still learning the whole process and obviously became confused. I will make sure from now on I use titanium backup properly. I thought team win was all I needed for backing up.

Thanks again.
[Paranoid Android Q&A] ArclightX:
For backing up app data, No. However in truth it is never a bad idea to keep a clean working backup image of an existing ROM in case all hell breaks loose on your device and need a copy of a previous image that you know works.

Needless to say it's preferable that you keep a copy this image some where other than on the storage partition of the device itself, like perhaps on your Google Drive space.

Cheers.

Where did you get your Moto G back battery cover shells ?

I am interested in buying a Moto G and also a Turquoise back cover. The Moto G is in stock on Amazon UK, but the back shell is "Usually dispatched within 1 to 3 months. "

I am from Europe, so i can order only from stores that ship in EU. I also looked on Expansys and those shells ar available for pre-order. Did anyone get a turquoise back shell already ?

[LG Optimus G (International)] mhxmhx:
I bought an F180L ( F180L - Korea LGUplus - LTE (LGUplus Band) / GSM / WCDMA / CDMA) ( it was a mistake, I was told that is the same as E975 and took it for granted. Already regretting it.). My goal is to be able to flash the latest custom roms and have good data connectivity ( if I am only able to have 2G speeds, it's no good). These roms are mostly created for E975. After browsing a couple of topics:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2334023

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2434917

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38438579

I understood that the F180L to E975 conversion is not an easy thing :|. Even impossible.

Because I am not so familiar with modding and I will struggle ( I have to google search most of the terms here; my experience only includes the unlocking and rooting of mere two android phones), I created this thread in order to make this trasition as safe as it gets.

I have already rooted the phone with fromaroot. SuperSU is installed.

I tried to take EFS backup ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2164749). I assumed that I need to install a custom recovery ( CWM) or is there a stock recovery that can do the work? I pressed volume down+lock key and it only offered to return to stock condition.

I then tried to unlock the bootloader with FREEGEE. Well, that didn't go as planned either: i am seeing a white screen and in the notification bar it says installing, while it is already installed. Already istalled BusyBox ( I assumed it wanted me to, as when I pressed on the Freegee app icon, it sent me to busybox app in market).

Kind of outside my waters, would appreciate any hints
[LG Optimus G (International)] seschaum:
Hi!

I had the same problem - got an F180L (name Optimus G is the same as on the real E975)...

My problem was/is that FreeGee bricked the phone totally! Only download mode still working... I was coming from rooted stock Korean ROM 4.1.2. (F180L20S or F180L20R)

With the download mode I flashed TeenyBin and pushed via ADB a custom rom (CM10.2 that time) and GApps,

voila - CM10.2 installed.

Do not use TWRP as it has a different model identifier and you would have to modify CM ROM everytime you flash them, stick to CWM 6.0.3.7!

Also - do not flash any different BASEBANDs - as it is korean, you cannot change the available frequencies with simply flashing a different!

In germany I could live quite good with the korean one - LTE was no option for me (which would never work in germany though with a F180L)

But 3G and 3.6G+ (HSPA) was working well! (2 different networks tested: Vodafone and O2)

Hope thats helps a bit

But my next step is: revert back to stock as described in this thread:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piecho:
Hello!

I am with gsm carrier who uses national roaming for his services. There are 4 carriers for calls but the internet services are availiable onle when the phone is connected to one of them. This internet services carrier has good signal in cities but almost no signal in the countryside. However, the other carriers have stronger signal usually. So the effect is that the phone connects usually to no-internet carriers, even in the cities. I have to change carrier manually to internet carrier but this is not a solution as I have to manually reconnect to calls carriers when outside of the city.

So my question is if there is a way (tool) to prioritize carriers or in other words to set rules for the phone on how to choose services carrier?

A friend of mine did something stupid and tried to install a CWM-recovery for his MT6589 (model: AT-AS50SE) and killed his baseband in the proces. No backups are available and both the Serial Number, baseband and IMEI say unknown. Basicly I think his NVRAM is fried and restoring the correct IMEI information on Android level doesn't work because of the broken baseband.

The device looks like a probable iOcean X7 Elite clone, but I haven't been able to find any roms with this baseband version and the original ROM is not available (the company hasn't responded yet). Also, I'm not able to use any of the tools (SN Write Tool, Maui META 3G, IMEI & SN Writer) because it won't go into META mode (because of the broken recovery mode, I can't go into recovery mode anymore) or because I don't have the correct Modem and AP database.

Can anybody provide me a backup of their AT-AS50SE or a compatible device so I can restore the baseband? Or does anybody have an other idea how to restore the baseband on this MT6589?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrCrayon:
I think you might try to flash the baseband from another MT6589 device and then use Mobileuncle MTK Tools to restore the IMEI.

Searching on google for that baseband I found this:

I have a ZP980 and I know in some roms the baseband is taken from other mtk phones.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shalaf1978:
According to my searches, it's not possible to really flash a baseband on an MT6589 beside then replacing the modem.img and/or rewriting the NVRAM through the tools I mentioned earlier. I can't get into META mode and I tried several modem.img files.

Formatting the NVRAM and soft-replacing the IMEI through MobileUncle MTK Tools didn't work as well.

I guess that waiting for the original company to provide the files.
