[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ocelot_gr:
Hey guys,

May I ask for a few hints on backing up/restoring from rom to rom?

More specifically, how do you proceed every time you switch custom roms?

Titanium/helium/native google cloud? Do you first restore through playstore/samsung accounts, or from titanium backups, and so on?

My current protocol is backup via Titanium, flash, login to google apps/samsung account/playstore, let it download everything, and then selectively restore some info (ex. sms, wifi passes, accounts, apps, etc) from titanium, but that takes way too long, and i am not sure this is the proper way (as info get merged sometimes, viber will never restore properly, etc).

So, a few tips please?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludoke:
Make a Nandroid back up in your custom recovery,it's the easiest way
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ocelot_gr:
Nandroid of *not* the whole system? Is that possible? Recovery or adb?

I mostly care about apps and their data, settings etc...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludoke:
In Custom recovery select backup ,check all the options and be sure the backup path is your SD card.

If ,in the future you restore the back up everething will be the same as before,restore also in custom recovery .

If you made the back in TWRP then resore in TWRP. For CWM the same
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MagilsugaM:
Just use the backup function of your recovery it will backup apps, settings, kernel and rom. It doesn't back up the baseband though. So if you have a rom that uses a different one. You have to flash the old one again with odin to get the old backup working.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ocelot_gr:
I think I mis-presented it or something.

I dont think i need a nandroid backup, as this would restore the rom/system as well.

What I ask for comments on is the quick/correct restoration of the *apps* and their data only (since the whole point of the question is how to restore apps after a new custom rom flash/update).

[HTC One X] Trogladyte:
I wonder if you can help. And sorry if this is in the wrong place.

I want to root my HTC One XL. But when I try to register at HTCdev.com, I am getting a "This connection is untrusted" message. Here are the details:

www.htcdev.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)

I thought it might be temporary, and that the certificate would be sorted, but this has remained the same for weeks.

Is this a problem? Are other people experiencing this? Should I continue to register,or is there a real security issue?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ray6279:
I think this novice has accidentally "bricked" his first phone in years. My new Nexus 6 just bootloops and will not connect via USB to my WIN 7PC. This occurred while rooting the phone with Wugs Root Tool Kit between unlocking and backup. Appears all data has been wiped. I can manually put this Nexus 6 into bootloader but it has no functions and returns to the little color moving dots. How do I "push" factory restore files to this phone? Any ideas? I successfully rooted two other Nexus 6 using this system two days ago so I am at a loss as to what happened. Thank you.

[Xiaomi Mi Pad Questions & Answers] chengda85:
first I rooted my device following this http://en.miui.com/thread-30617-1-1.html

then I started super SU and selected normal.

then I opened GLtools i downloaded from here http://xdaforums.com/ ... tools-1-29-t2828630

I installed the GLtools apk and opened it, it asked me to select TEX(DE)coder and install, I did that, super SU asked for root permission, I granted. Mipad rebooted, I opened GLtools nothing changed, it still asks me to install texdecoder, weird, so I installed that again and rebooted and now mipad is bricked and stuck at the MI logo.

I can go into fastboot, however when I tried to use mi pc suite or miflash they do not detect the device so I cant flash fastboot.

when in fastboot device manager shows "android phone fastboot" and it says no drivers are installed for this device, I tried installing drivers like adb driver and fastboot driver etc but it doesnt help.

I am able to boot up the device by using system two, but I need to unbrick system one in case system two gets screwed up.

when in system two, device manager shows android composite device and mi pad and says drivers are up to date. however I still cant anything in fastboot.

I have tried installing android SDK to flash from command prompt but again it doesnt detect hte device and is stuck on waiting for device.

Done a bunch of reading on the charging rates for the oneplus 2 and it turns out the phone only charges at 0.5A while screen is on vs 2A while screen is off. Anyone know how to change this? If I recall the oneplus one charged much more quickly with screen on despite having an identical charger. Is this something that needs to be changed in a kernel, or can this be fixed via build prop edits?

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0v3rl0rd:
I'ts perfectly normal.

It's like fueling your car while driving - it will take longer to fuel up the tank :P

Why? Because, when connected to the charger and phone on:

- screen uses lot of energy

- cpu also

- WiFi, etc.

Therefore is normal that the phone charges at a slower rate while You're using it and charging at the same time.

More details here: How to Test If Your Micro-USB Cable Is Charging Properly.

Hope I helped :)

Because Samsung still hasn't learned that being beat over the head with a metal pipe repeatedly, still hurts really bad and can cause you to bleed out.
[Galaxy S5 Mini General] RushPL:
I think their policy is to update the old devices but not more than one or two versions behind the flagships. This way they can sort of say that they do the updates and still keep desirability of the new devices for their newest OS. It makes sense for them but I agree it sucks, preferably I would buy a phone from another company however nothing beats Dual SIM from S5 Mini.
[Galaxy S5 Mini General] seaman5705:
Why this discussion continues ? It is confirmed that S5 mini will be updated to 5.1.1 , which is the latest version of Android for now . And is not behind the latest flagships of Samsung.

It is a luck for us , considering that the hardware is even weaker than S3(I9305) , which didn't get an update to Android 5.
[Galaxy S5 Mini General] marek.ns:
HW is definitely not weaker than S3.
[Galaxy S5 Mini General] RushPL:
But who cares if it's weaker or not? It is perfectly capable to handle new Android and that's important.
[Galaxy S5 Mini General] seaman5705:
Sure it is - I was talking about S3 I9305 with two Gb RAM . And CPU in S5 mini goes lower in benchmarks .

There are many phones capable of running 5.0 - even S1 is with AOSP rom . I think this phone got an update just because it didn't got any other in its lifetime , otherwise it is embarrassing weak .

To be honest, I don't give a sh... anymore! When I decided between three different brand phones, I wanted a Lollipop OS phone. I only bought the S5 mini concidering it is going ta have Lollipop soon. It has been almost a year ago now and I don't trust those empty promises anymore.

Pretty disappointing service, Samsung!!!!

HTC-service was a lot better. I wish I had bought an HTC instead. -maybe Huawei??? -next time...
[Galaxy S5 Mini General] Severos:
it seems there will no Update soon, so I will chose a custom rom, triggering KNOX.

The S5mini was my last Samsung Phone I ever bought. I still just have an 4.4.2 Firmware and I am fed up with promises for new Firmware and then get maybe an outdated 5.1.1 Version in 2955.

Maybe Samsung haven't recognized, the actual Android Version is 6.0. So stop adding Terabytes on useless Bloatware or excessively modifying original Android could help Samsung to bring new Android Versions faster to the users, but I guess, that is not something Samsung wants.

"Just shoot out new phones and give them maybe one update and then let the users alone" seems to be the strategy of Samsung and a lot of other Companies.

So, never Samsung phone again, at least, not for me. Too expensive, to few updates, much too slow with delivering updates. And it seems, Samsung want to prevent users from flashing their own Firmware, knowing that is the only way to get bug fixes after Samsung lost interest on the Smartphone (as soon as it is released to the world).
