Yeah. Titanium backs up your apps and data to sd card. Which mean you can restore it from ROM to ROM.

Nandroid backs up everything above the radio level. Kernel, boot.img, /system, basically the whole ROM.

So say I was on ROM 1 and wanted to change to ROM 2. I'd do a Titanium, then a Nandroid (or the other way around, whichever's most convenient xD).

After I do my wipe and install ROM 2, I don't have my apps! But if I download Titanium from the market, it'll see my backups on my sd card and I can restore them.

Now say I don't like ROM 2. I can use my nandroid backup to change back to ROM 1, with all of ROM 1 intact.

Hope that helps =]

I flashed baked snack, but I still see it there.

I'm trying to delete the following

Sprint Zone

sprint football

sprint hotspot

Nascar

Can it be done with astro file manager?

on another note

Is there anyone who knows of a possible way to get the best of both worlds (sense and no sense?)

what I'm trying to do is try a non-sense rom ( since I LOVE launcher pro) but I still want my sense facebook implementation, my HTC widgets, and the HTC clock/weather widget.

I'd be willing to donate if someone can get me a rom that features that, and great battery life.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenewguy821:
I have run launcher pro in a Sense ROM. You would still be able to use the Sense widgets (Friendstream, People, etc) as well as the Launcher Pro widgets.

get root explorer from the market, go to system/app look for the apps you want to delete and delete them,!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenewguy821:
To add to this.....

IF you get an error trying to delete an app in Root Explorer, there is a button near the top of the screen that says r/w click that button. Some "System Apps" are read only, and you won't have write privileges automatically to delete the app. Selecting r/w will change that level of privilege. You won't see anything happen, just click it once and try to delete the app again. (Hope that makes sense) I had trouble deleting something a while back, and someone pointed that out to me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikevillarroel:
The easiest way? download root manager, mount as R/W and then you will be able to uninstall whatever you want.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hustleman:
Are there any free options to do it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spy_owl2:
How did you do this? Sense widgets are not listed when you try to add one. In fact, from launcherpro.com website:

One of the features I get requested the most is to support HTC Sense widgets. It seems everyone wants them. Because of the way these widgets are built into the HTC Sense launcher itself, this is simply not possible. And since not every Android user has a phone with HTC Sense, these widgets are not even available to all users.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mecha2142:
I'm assuming you have adb set up on your PC. Just let me know if you haven't yet and I'll try to get you set up. This is a free option, and if you have everything set up correctly, the easiest.

Go to the command prompt on the PC and type in the following:

That will bring up a list of pre-installed applications, including the Sprint apps. When you see the name of one you don't want, simply type the following

And there you have it! The app will be uninstalled :).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
ok - 2 things here.

first - sense widgets are are specific to sense and they will not run on LP. So no sense clock&weather, no stocks widget, no news widget, etc. However FB integration is not a widget, it's built into sense itself. So the integration is still there. There are tons of replacement clock and weather widgets in the market - try beautiful widgets, its not free but it's worth every penny. Also if you buy LP, the dev is working on bringing his version of the sense widgets to LP, so you can still get the people widget, calendar widget, bookmarks widget, and messages widget, and he's working on the others. They're slightly different, but the experience is still the same.

Second, the easiest way to remove those stock apps is actually through Titanium backup, and you should be able to uninstall them with the free version too.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hustleman:
Damn the facebook integration is something I'd really miss.

Thanks for the tip for titanium backup, it did the trick!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splashd1:
I have been working on development for a proof of concept application that requires AT&T 3G on the Nexus One. As I finish, I needed to deliver the app on phones to my customer--now I can only get T-Mobile version of the N1!

Why did Google/HTC pull the AT&T version from distribution?

I have a bad feeling by posting this, someone will provide "helpful" comments that I don't need to run an app on a particular carrier, or I can run a TM phone on AT&T--both technically true, but trust me, I have a special case that requires AT&T 3G enabled phones.

I don't think it will work, but I am going to try and reflash a TM N1 with the AT&T radio image and see if that works. I suspect not, since I read somewhere around here that the phones have different power amps. I will let you know...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crachel:
wrong forum

flashing the at&t radio image to t-mobile hardware will not work don't waster your time

google has not given a reason for no AT&T dev phone only have said "at this time there are no plans to offer the version that is capable of 3G speeds on AT&T and Rogers networks."
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noiz7:
Yeah, your best bet is to look on ebay/craigslist or even at the marketplace here on the XDA forums for one. I'm glad I got one before they are gone, but I'm sure you can still find one by looking.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
Flashing the radio won't do anything because both phones already use the same radio file. There's no such thing as an ATT radio for the nexus, they all use the same single radio file.

Ebay is your best bet, or Craig list.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catzilla:
Radio image doesn't do anything.

The phones' hardware is different. You just have to get the AT&T version from ebay/craigslist.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Does your application *absolutely* have to run on an N1?

Cause it's worth pointing out... Telus (Canada) has now released the substantially similar HTC Desire. It's SIM-unlockable, cheaper than an N1, runs the right frequencies for AT&T 3G... and the ROM it comes with is rootable. If your application doesn't play well with Sense UI you can load a ROM such as OpenDesire which is basically stock Froyo.

So if you're in a real bind and you can't get your hands on enough Nexus Ones (Nexii?), this one might be worth consideration.

Hi,

In order to backup my phone, i am searching where the VIP list of the secure box is saved.

I know where is the password in the registry.

- I checked PIM.VOL : not there. Not in the contact. Try to backup the file, do a hard reset and put back the file : VIP list is blank.

- I checked in the registry : maybe but which key?

It seems that it's not the contact too since the data in the PIM.VOL is not updated when you put a contact in the VIP list.

Solution:

Save PIM.VOL

Save this registry entry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Jataayu/Messaging]

For the password:

I installed Launcher Pro and as expected, whenever I hit the home key, a dialogue box pops up and asks me "Complete action using". My choices are LaucherPro and TwLauncher.

I would like to select LauncherPro and set that action by default, but lets say I want to go back to using the default launcher. How do I reset that default setting?

Did a search, couldn't find anything, must be too simple for most...
[Captivate General] Kaik541:
This has actually been brought up a number of times, so I have a hard time imagining you searched much.

Either simply install "Home Switcher" from the market place or go to Settings--->Applications--->Manage Applications--->Launcher Pro and click "Clear Defaults"

This is how you would do it in just about every android phone, but since you're running the Vibrant according to your signature, if the exact actions aren't the same, find the way to get to "Manage Applications" and go from there

I am a Technology Consultant by profession and I am fascinated by Android. I have some creative Android App ideas but I am not so good at java so unable to make things work by myself.

That's why I am looking for a developer (Preferably from India) who can help me out with this thing. I cannot pay anything but just looking for someone who has the potential to develop Apps but still did not get any attention.

Why should you help me for free?

1. App's developer section will have your name with me.

2. I guarantee that the App idea I have will be a hit.

3. There is no such application still in the Android Market.

4. You have got nothing to lose.

So if you have the zeal for developing android app and want to be famous (Yes, I believe my app idea is that good), Please leave a comment and we can then discuss things.

it will also save care homes and the NHS a small fortune.

parliament met me and nearly fell off their chairs they couldn't believe what a great idea it was.

but with a lack of funds its getting it made.

if someone could make it without money upfront I would happily go 50-50 on it.
