My current backup amounts to 3.05Gb including: 274 apps (user and system data) - 2 big games only.

The backup contains the following partitions: boot, cache, data, efs and system. Of course the big part of our backups is the data partition so you can try to remove some apps that you don't really use.

As you can see the backup size depends on what we have on our device.

If you don't have enough free space your custom recovery will show up an error.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerbear294:
You'll probably run out of space.

What you could do is an ADB backup though. That way the backup's saved onto your computer.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valiceemo:
Thanks for the reply.

I've got a similar amount of apps, is I think I might just squeeze a nandroid backup in once I dump some not so important apps and get rid of media

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
You can also:

1. Make an online nandroid backup

2. Or backup only system stuff through your recovery and backup your user data in the Cloud with Helium app for instance.

Anyway with 4Gb you will have enough space imo.

i have another question on this topic!!!!!

If im installing a new AOSP ROM, most of them instruct to do a factory reset.

My question is will this clean everything?

So i copy the ROM .zip to SD storage, do the wipe...will this wipe the sd storage?

Im on an international D802 so i dont have an external SD card slot?

im worried about wiping the phone (factory reset) and this wiping away the new ROM .zip so i cant install it.

am i being stooopid?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Factory reset will wipe your apps and the related settings. All files stored in /sdcard won't be deleted.

A factory reset wipes the /data and /cache partitions only so you just need to backup your user apps (Titanium backup, Helium...)

There's no external sdcard for the Nexus 5.

One other important thing is making a Nandroid backup through your custom recovery. It can be helpful if you wan to restore your whole configuration or if you have a bad flash.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valiceemo:
Thanks

So if i do a NANDroid back up (which i have) would i still need to back up my apps...i use Android Tuner?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Yes. The nandroid backup is mainly used to restore the whole configuration but when we flash a new rom we just have to restore our user data.

So you do need to also backup your user data with Android Tuner for instance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valiceemo:
On thanks. I'll back up all my apps with android tuner.

This is the first time I've ever flashed a new ROM. Im a noobie to android.

Anyone find any good tpu cases?

I found a couple on Amazon but most with bad reviews. Most complaints were that the cases do not fit.

I found this one.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I86GGII/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_22zhtb0CC8DKH

It has no reviews yet and I bought it ...I don't have it yet... But let's hope it's good.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] KestrelX:
I have this one. It fits. It's snug, but it fits. The buttons are pretty hard to press though. It will do until some other options come out I guess!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] minionhunter:
If I could have any case for this device, I would want a Gumdrop Bounce Skin.

My wife has one for her Ipad air with a glass screen protector and there is nothing like it. Survives drops and a 5 year old, feels great to touch, sticks to your hand so you can use if one handed without a strap, sticks enough to a table or whatever so you can just lean it up against anything (wall, pillow, monitor, shelf, pencil holder, ...) and it stays at the same angle you set it down at, easy.

I just love this thing. If gumdrop doesn't make it, I'm going to have to bribe a silicone guy and get him to copy one for me. I think I could almost duplicate it with RTV silicone rubber if I bought two of them cut them up to fit and then did a two part mold, but it would take a bit of thinking and I don't know how well RTV silicone would last (but it would have the right shore A hardness to feel great and "stick" in all the right ways).

The best thing about the case is that while it grabs lint and stuff like most silicone cases, it does not feel bad and does not inhibit its stickiness. This might not make sense to you if you aren't acutely aware of everything you touch and how it feels (and I wish I didn't), but if you are sensitive to it, this is amazing. Now I haven't covered it in baby powder or anything, but it is amazing not having to worry about tossing it on a pile of laundry or the bed or the carpet and it not getting so covered in tiny dust that you feel like you have to wask it off. Even my otterbox for my GS4 makes me feel like that sometimes, but not my wife's gumdrop bounce, man I'm envious of that skin.

If you want here is the link to it on amz. for the ipad. they even have it in like 7 colors, I just wish they made it for the Note pro.., maybe they will.

I got my Poetic Graph Grip yesterday. I'm pretty torn about it. The fit is great, it is much better protection than the Fosmon case linked above that I have, it is comfortable to hold BUT... it is heavy!! It adds a significant amount of weight to an already large tablet. And it also seems to be a bit of a dog fur/dust magnet. Which is a problem in a house with three dogs! So I'm not sure whether I will continue to use it or not.

Hello

I'm newbie in building a rom. I do as http://source.android.com/source/building.html page of android

I'm stuck at the "Obtaining proprietary binaries" step

- I download Android source to the directory that I name it to be "android_src"

- I download Sony Xperia S's proprietary binaries from http://developer.sonymobile.com/knowledge-base/open-source/android-open-source-project-for-xperia-devices/already and I got the " vendor" folder which is not in the "android_src" folder.

How do I include the proprietary binaries into the my own AOSP rom?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nisu4717:
Do pm to a developer.like abhinav2,or deadwar,op of carban rom
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Hi,

I would not recommend you to use the binaries on the Sony website as they are outdated. Instead, please have a look at this github - https://github.com/billchen1977?tab=repositories

billchen1977 has provided all the required stuff for building aosp. So basically you need to create a local manifest in .repo/local_manifests.

You can do that by following these steps -

cd .repo
mkdir local_manifests
gedit nozomi.xml

Now copy this code into the XML file -

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project path="kernel/sony/msm8x60" name="billchen1977/kernel_sony_msm8x60" remote="github" />
</manifest>

I have added only one repo (the kernel). Similarly add the other two repos also and then simply run repo sync and you should be able to build the ROM then.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thsecmaniac:
What is it different between billchen1977's rom and Sony's rom except Sony's is older than billchen1977's? I'm curious :confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
These files are known as the vendor blobs. They are proprietary files whose source code is not available to the public. Some of these vendor files are used by various components of the phone like the camera etc. The ones on the Sony website are very old so if you use them, it is quite possible that the camera might not function properly. As Sony released official updates, if I remember, they even fixed laggy 1080p recording. So it would be much better to use the latest blobs.

[General Marketing & SEO] Appiterate:
App Designing monetization

What you are actually talking about here is maybe app designing. When it comes to making any app, be it web app or mobile, UX(User Experience) Designing is absolutely essential. IT basically deals with the logistics part of exactly how the interface of the pp is going to be like and how it will look broadly. Of course there is money in it but the skill set required is quite different from that of a developer. Its about creativity really, how can you make the experience as simple and attractive to users as possible. The approach is also different for gaming apps to e-commerce apps.. Try it out a bit and if you like it start looking for assignments. Best of luck :)

Hi all,

as u perhaps already know, after almost 3 years with my beloved LG 2X, I bought the LG G2 D802 32 GB last week :)

Now... I've installed the LG Drivers onto my Win 8.1... I've rooted the phone and installed TWRP recovery.

It's time to flash my first custom rom on the new little monster :p

But what rom ? I've seen that some roms are sized 1 GB :confused: while others... 200 MB ( as almost all roms of my other android' based devices ). Obvioulsy I've looking for a 4.4.2 rom. From what rom it's better to begin ? Actually, what's most stable 4.4.2 rom ?

Thx in advance :)

It depends upon your choice either Stock or AOSP based.

Start with PA4.1 or CyanoGenMOD 11.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PYCON:
As I can remember, for example, for my 2X... I held the stock original rom for first 4 days :D Then only cyanogen, paranoid, pacman, kang etc etc rom, I think all cyano's based ;) I've always thought the cyanogen with reduced sizes rather than stock may be slim, lite and fastest than stock... :p My opinion, my hope.

PS If I use hot reboot or a similar app to reboot into recovery, no problem. TWRP starts, I'm able to backup the system, etc. If I use the vol - & power on button, no way to enter into TWRP :rolleyes:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waleedshiekh:
1. Power off the phone.

2. Hold Vol Down + Power button

3. When LG logo flashes leave power button and hold it again (Don't leave volume down button)

4. You will reach to Hard Reset menu press power button twice

5. Instead of hard resetting you will be moved to TWRP/CWM.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kickoff:
First, you have to decide between AOSP exeprience or LG Android experience. I tried several AOSP ROM-s cuz KK but went always back to the modified stock ROM's. Why?

a) QuickWindow.

b) There are some LG Apps I like (QuickRemote, SplitView tec)

c) I use my G2 with my corporate exchange mail account and have never used a better email application than the LGEmail before. I can set out of office replies from the application.

d) Not a big deal but I really like the weather animation on my lockscreen.

e) I cannot live without the horizontal quick settings and became frustrated on the classical quick settings on any AOSP ROM (even if there are some 3rd party solutions).

My personal recommendation: do not play with 4.4.2 (LG) ROM-s, try CloudyFlex 1.4 - very nice and stable. As long as there is no official update from LG for open phones and no custom recovery on KK and no Xposed 2.5 I won't switch to 4.4.2.

However, everything is matter of personal taste. Try and decide yourself.

b) There are some LG Apps I like (QuickRemote, SplitView tec) : quick remote is wonderful, I've found the porting of this app for any kind of roms... I've to test it.

c) I use my G2 with my corporate exchange mail account and have never used a better email application than the LGEmail before. I can set out of office replies from the application : I use aqua mail :p

d) Not a big deal but I really like the weather animation on my lockscreen : not so usefull, for my usage... :rolleyes:

Check the frequency of the scheduled scan and try to recall if you installed any apps after the last scan.

Letting lookout delete those core files will affect proper functioning of device but that's necessary.

I would advise to format "/system" and re- flash the ROM you were on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jonnyh1994:
More likely than not, it's a false positive. Due to the fact that most ROM's have files that allow the modification of system files such as settings in your case. This has happened to me on my recently rooted Note 3 on xnote. It was working fine for like 3 days then all of a sudden I get bombarded with 15 riskware notifications saying things aren't good etc..I posted on the forum and some people told me to uninstall lookout. Other threads for ROM riskware related warnings state that it's just a false positive. I wouldn't be too worried but if you are I'd recommend wiping your phone and re-flashing and see if it goes away, if not flash a different ROM.
