Go into ROM manager and it will tell you there's a new version of ClockworkMod available. Then you can flash it from the option within ROM Manager (and reboot into recovery if you want to, just to test it).

Can anyone tell me where I can find the backup file for the Liftpro app?

I'm changing phones, and need to wipe the old one and package it up tonight to send off - but I don't want to lose all my logs from Liftpro.

There is a folder on the sdcard names "liftpro" but it's empty.

Any way I can find out where the backup file is?

SOLVED: The developer has come back to me within minutes of asking, to tell me that there is a file called logdb on the sdcard which is what I'm looking for.

BTW Liftpro is an awesome tool if you want to track your progress in the gym :-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] yusufm786:
Hi guys

After reading around the forum a bit, it seems some people were in similar situations as me, but I still don't have a definite answer.

I have been using a HTC Dream for about a year, and have been an avid fan of cyanogenmod. Although I like the fact that it's rooted and I can install any ROM i liked, I stuck with cyanogen because:

1. It's extremely stable

2. It's well established - they guys got their own site, a central location for all ROM info, all files are found in the same place, they continuously update the ROMs and it pretty much always gets better

The above points for me were reason enough to not even bother with any other ROM. I bought a HTC HD2 a few days back, and I now want to have the phone dual boot Android. What android rom is as good as cyanogen, where "good" is defined by my points above? I know there is a ported cyanogenmod rom, but how well does the port work, will it be updated often as new cyanogenmods get released, etc? Also, I'm no fan of nightly builds, so I don't want a port based on a nightly build - it must either be experimental, release candidate or stable. I also want to stick with the ROM I choose, so it should be continuously updated for the foreseeable future..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
First of all, you say you don't want nightly builds, but experimental is okay? Not exactly following, but hey.

There are a couple of CM based roms, if i'm not mistaken 3 are still being maintained:

-JDMS

-HD2ONE

-Mychiprima's (not sure if I'm spelling his name right here) build, it doesn't really have a name (thread contains "htc_linux_wince" at the very beginning)

Mychiprima's builds are based on the autobuild, and are therefor not checked and may contain bugs. JDMS and HD2ONE however are being thoroughly checked & optimized by the respective chefs, so I don't really see a point in not trying them.

Still, if you really want builds based on CM-stable there's always shubcraft and hyperdroid, but both have been discontinued for some weeks already, so you won't get the recent optimizations.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] leon98408:
check this out http://android.hd2roms.com/
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] yusufm786:
Thanks for that info. When I said experimental, I meant their beta versions - maybe my terminology is a bit wrong, but I know with the Dream, sometimes they used to release a beta version, then a RC, then a stable. From my understanding nightly builds were often buggy as they weren't tested. I'l have a look at those ROMs you suggest though. Aside from cyanogen, are there any other ROMs you think fit my two point criteria I gave in my first post?

Thanks a lot. That's very helpful. I'll have a look through that
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
I assumed that's what you meant, but RC's and nightlies are both just called experimental.

It's true nightlies as such aren't tested, because they are autobuilt. But the code that goes into it (in modules) does get tested first, so you'll usually have a nice working rom. (I'm talking about officially supported CM devices now, I already said how we do it with HD2).

There are other established builds (on HD2, you don't call them Android ROMs, but builds, because they run from sd card. ROMs are WinMo) yes, MDJ's got a whole series but I'm not a big fan of Sense myself. They're pretty popular though!

From CY6.1 rc1 to rc2 what do I need to do to restore everything like I was restoring a backup?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
You don't have to wipe anything except cache and dalvik-cache which will not affect you. Thus, you will not lose anything you currently have...

Just go in the recovery, manually wipe cache and dalvik-cache, flash the RC2 zip file and reboot, you're good to go.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
Thanks for reply. I know how to flash roms. I'm trying to get an answer about apps and settings and such. I apologize for not elaborating.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rori~:
..as gravufo said: "Thus, you will not lose anything you currently have..."
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
Just to be sure. Sounds too easy and you know the saying.

go into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik and do not do full wipe.

Then flash cy6.1 RC 2 and reboot and I'm set? If its that easy ill poop my pants. And then send you guys a picture. Just kidding.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rori~:
It´s just that easy.:)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mac208x:
I updated from stable 6.0 but i never wiped cache. Does it matter?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
Appreciate the fast replies guys. I just realized I wiped rc2 last night when I was cleaning up excess and stuff. So I guess ill wait. The gamble of a headache is not worth it for the small differences. I wish gingerbread would hurry up. I'm eager to see if it allows custom/assignable ringtones. My Nokia e71 is sorely missed for that feature.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clarkster:
It is not a gamble, and there won't be any headaches. Just flash the RC2 zip. Don't wipe anything, even the cache, just so you can feel safe.

Of course, make a full backup to appease your fears, but that won't matter.

Just flash the RC2 on top of your system.

I did it this morning while still laying in bed with only 70% battery left and not plugged into the wall. And I didn't even make a nandroid backup.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
+1, just flash...

I mean even if you don't wipe cache and dalvik-cache it won't matter...it's just a preventive measure and even if you DO wipe them, you won't even notice since you DO NOT lose anything

I flash new nightlies every day and you can trust me on this one :P
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
Ok all you pushy Smarty pants. Do I need to worry about Google apps or just flash rc2?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liam.lah:
Very simple answer that most managed to miss.

If you want to back up all data and apps, use titanium backup.(buy it, its worth it) if you ever lose everything or move to a different rom, this will bring your apps, data and settings along to a new rom, or after a wipe

If you want to make a back up of your rom, in case something goes wrong, do a nandroid backup from recovery. And yes nandroid before you flash ANYTHING. You never know what could go wrong.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
No, you do not need to worry about Google apps...think of RC2 as an update, not a different ROM...When you update your stock from from an OTA, do you lose anything? Nope. That is exactly the same thing here.

Put the RC2.zip in your sdcard

Reboot in recovery

Wipe cache and dalvik-cache (you will NOT lose anything)

Flash zip from sdcard

Reboot

Voilà
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NPuter:
So you don't have to reflash gapps? A couple if days ago I went from a 6.1 nightly to RC2 - I didn't wipe anything, but when it booted I did not have gapps (everything else remained)... I then flashed gapps and they returned, but I had to reconfigure everything related to gapps (notifications etc). This has dissuaded me from flashing the new nightlies because I do not want to set up gapps every time...

What went wrong?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
Well, I did hear about people losing their Gapps when flashing a few of the latest nightlies (right before RC2), but it never happened to me...Maybe it depends on where you had them installed before? I installed the updates from the market, so they ended up in /data/ and not in /system...since flashing overwrites /system I guess that could be the reason?

Dunno...Worst case, you just reflash the Gapps and restore the settings through Titanium Backup
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liam.lah:
Fairly sure if you flash Gapps at the same time as the latest rom, you don't have that problem.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
well just tried flash 6.1 N1 stable over 6.1 RC1. didn't work. did it this way, that way and another and still didn't work. wiped sd card and tried a couple times fresh and guess what? NOTHING. sigh.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
can you give details? Why didn't it work? What's the error message? How were you proceeding?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
never got an error message. got the cyanogen icon bootloop everytime. waited about 20 mins after the whole sd card wipe and fresh install and nothing still.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Did you wipe cache and dalkiv?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
yes. i also tried one time not wiping it. forgot to mention i've tried installing with the latest gapps and the 10/25? gapps. i tried installing over rc1 without installing gapps also. the only thing i didn't try was plain 6.1 N1 without gapps. but i want gapps.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
How are you installing?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
well tried from rom manager the first time. after that didn't work, i tried different recoveries and flashing direct from laptop. i have used clockwork mod 2.5.1.1 i think, and amon ra 1.7 and 2.0. i have formatted my sd card from laptop and recovery apps. i'm at a loss here. i downloaded 6.1 from cyanogen's website directly also. i have an ext3 partition for my apps. the only upside to all this is when i gave up finally, i made my partition from 512 to 640 MB. i am back to a fully working and stable 6.1 rc1 with 640 MB ext3 partition.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djn541:
if you're using dta2sd you have to flash that EVERY time you update or else you get a bootloop.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
ok. so if i flash over my rc1 to stable, do i just flash dta2sd after that or what?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djn541:
flash the rom, then gapps then a2sd, you should be fine.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
i'll try that way. unfortunately, it'll have to wait til tomorrow. it's almost my bedtime. thanks and i'll update.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lior84:
Hi

I using leedroid 2.2a on my desire an about 3 months. I also use quick system info to see how much memory left and it's write that there is 20Mb left of internal memory. So, I removed nfs shift (39Mb ) just to see if it helps but still after removing this game and also other apps, I don't see any improve in internal memory.

Must to say that at past month I did few times restore using clockworkmod but all the times I restored a rom that I backed up a couple of days before.

What your suggestions guys for this behavior? Doesn't android free ups internal memory after deleting apps that were installed?

Thank you for helping.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] existz:
So I decided to make some notification icons to match the gingerbread screens that leaked, so far Ive only got the signal and data icons made, I will make more colors soon...only tested on Darky's JPO and Docs JP8...so it may or may not work for you.. im not responsible for any data loss..

Instructions using ADB and 7zip...

1) Open up command prompt, cd to your android sdk/tools folder and use following command to pull your framework-res.apk from your phone..

2) Make a backup of you pulled framework-res.apk incase something goes wrong

3) Take the framework-res.apk you just pulled and open it with 7zip (you dont have to extract, just open it)

4) Download the attatched file below, open it and copy the files over to the opened framework-res.apk and copy them into /res/drawable-hdpi/ or /res/drawable-hdpi-v4/....(depends on your rom)

5) Now close 7zip and go back to command prompt and type the following

6) Once the device reboots you should have green icons..

I will work on some more colors this week and post them as well...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Kaik541:
Based on how system framework is dependent of the ROM it's from, you should probably include the fact that (based on your signature) you're using an i9000-based ROM. Meaning this framework-res.apk will likely *not* work with Captivate-based ROM's like Cognition.

Now, if I'm wrong about this and someone can test it, let us know and I'll remove this comment... but everyone should do as stated above and backup your original or make a nandroid backup before trying this on a Captivate-based ROM.

edit: I should say cool idea though, I like the look of gingerbread we saw on the Nexus S photos
[Captivate Themes and Apps] existz:
Just tested and confirm it works on stock JF6.. just place files in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi or/ drawable-hdpi-v4 depending on rom..

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nm4r3:
i was once a proud G1/Dream user... one night i was trying to get a clean install of the latest CM6 rom and i come to find out my recovery isnt able to mount the sdcard anymore, maybe a bad sdcard... i also noticed in my bootloader is showing S-ON.. am i still rooted. Im able to access recovery still
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr123:
S-ON does NOT imply that you have lost root. That is the bootloader. Root is in the OS.

I do suggest that you install an engineering SPL on it though. That way if you DO lose root, you will be able to get it back easily.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
He still has root but s-on is an issue. It means outside of recovery and fastboot/hboot, he cannot enable rw access to /system. Very annoying, let me tell you. The Slide still doesn't have s-off. Can't do metamorph. Only way you can uninstall apps is through adb in recovery. I don't know how he got s-on, very odd, but yes, reflash danger SPL. That would be the best solution would it not be? Without danger spl he can't flash most roms.
