Now I know how to install it, and I got it up and running , and it works fine. My question is how do I get Titanium Backup to look for my backup files that are now under emmc. When I try to get it to work it doesnt show anything in Titanium backup. Im a beginner at modding so I got to learn somehow :)

Thanks
[G Tablet General] palagai:
search is your friend.

check the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=919958

Edit: As stated in the first post the drive mappings are different - external SD is /sdcard and internal sd is /emmc

This has implications for Titanium Backup when you try to restore your USER DATA (user data only, don't restore system data)

Copy the contents of /emmc/titaniumbackup to /sdcard/titaniumbackup using Root Explorer or similar.

Titanium will now see all of your old backups.

I've herd about it in the past but never really paid any attention to it. This is the most used app by me now. If you were ever looking to sync your pictures and files from computer to your phone or pc this is IT! Install .apk's by dragging them to a dropboxfolder on your pc and go install on your phone, I am not sure but I think they also have a picture folder sync option from phone to pc? Anyways the 2gb account is free and if you do sign up please use me as a refferal

[Vibrant General] Haxel:
Its a great application, I wish it did automatic syncing with folders on the android version. I cant wait for them to add it. (They only just added it on the desktop version).

of course I'd just be happy with the option to sync a whole folder or multi-select files.
[Vibrant General] allthrottle:
I've been using dropbox for awhile for general file access ease, but started using it on my phone as soon as the app came out. I wish titanium would backup from dropbox, but it's nice that it saves to it. I always save pics and files to it before flashing a new rom.

+1 amazing! Apps are available for loads of mobile platforms too. If yiu long press an item in root explorer and send you can select dropbox and it lets you choose any folder to send to :-) the shared folder is really useful too!

I'm new here and have been looking at some tutorials on rom kitchens and rom ediing for my HTC Wildfire. I was jst wondering how to port, say, the android 2.3 rom or something from the android SDK and use it on my phone. I'd also like to know how easy/hard it is.

Thanks,

sato

Do you know anything about programming? Do you know anything about Linux? Do you have any driver building experience?

[General Questions and Answers] satopunch89:
Thanks. I don't really know much about any of those things (Except a tiny bit about linux) oh well...
[General Questions and Answers] El_Nino9:
hey why give up so easily? if you really wanted to learn there are so many threads to get you started. first get a linux distro, ubuntu recommended for most people.

there's dsixia's kitchen around somewhere. play with that a little. read the script's he uses in that kitchen. you'll learn a bit.

then onto building. cyanogen's wiki shows how to build from source and set up your machine to sync with it etc etc. get those sorted and try learn the above mentioned :)

[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Can't mess with 3.5 yet as they new files can't be decoded properly. For resizing you have to edit all the demention xmls on all the apks and m10 files. Lots of trial and error. Make sure you good with logcat

[Epic 4G General] BlueDrgBlade:
Hey guy's (please don't flame me to bad still a little new to the forums) I have looked over many guides but they don't really go over Samsung mostly HTC. I have the source from Samsung for the 2.1-update-1 and have been looking at it but not sure what i am really looking at. If anyone can maybe shed some light on it...of course i could be just confusing myself and its simpler then i think. I have been reading a paper on how to build linux from scratch to get that understanding considering Android is linux in all reality...

Thanks ahead of time guys.
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
Not to be mean, but unless you understand the code, all you'll be doing is copying/pasting into terminal to get a build. Which isn't very useful if you are trying to learn something.

If you are actually looking at building the OS and manipulating the underlying code, go ahead and grab a C book. It'll take even an intelligent person a good deal of time to understand it all.

As far as putting some APKs into a zip file and calling it a rom, well there's tons of stuff on that laying around, most of that is scripting. If you get into rebuiling the APKs with Smalli - there is code involved there - but you will need to know how java works for it to make sense to you there...might as well learn that while your at it.
[Epic 4G General] BlueDrgBlade:
Well i know C++/C# and java (took them in college and currently use them for my job) so it shouldn't take too long..i guess i just need to dig into the code and go from there. I don't want to copy past thats definitely out of the question. Have any pointers where i should start and see if i can grasp this or just stick with using other custom rom's which in the end if thats what i do that's fine by me just wanted to get into it myself.

PS: didn't take what you said as mean ;) lol any criticism or help is always appreciated. :)
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
^

What he said.

There are a bunch of mini-guides to teach you to copy and paste some stuff, but little in terms of a clear concise guide. I've been working on learning to do a rom myself, but I learned to program in C and Java on unix and linux machines in college. You're going to have to spend a lot of time reading and learning things that you won't be sure you'll ever really need to in order to do any meaningful dev work with that source.

Start using linux on a home machine. Start learning C. And pick up a book called "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment" to begin to understand how the low level parts of a linux operating system work. Then you will be much better prepared to see how it all works together.

edit: Looks like we both replied at the same time. I guess you can ignore the above post.
[Epic 4G General] BlueDrgBlade:
lol, i will look into that book for sure though. I have been slowly getting back into linux i use to use it all the time then somethings i was working on and a few apps i was using i had to switch to mostly Microsoft and lost a lot of my Linux knowledge (which sucks) but i will start there thanks again! :)
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
I think if you are familiar with the code you are ready for what you want to do. Seeing as how you are reading htc development guides tells me your searching cause that's all that you can really find online. You dont know the steps to take to actually build that source your looking at. First thing is you need your development machine set up to build. I hope youve done that already if not, source.android.com will get you through that. You need the sdk and all that. Next you hook the phone up usb debugging and from within your android folder (mydroid) run extract.sh that willful the samsung files into your environment. From here it will be similar to the htc guides for building but you have the files in front of you to edit you just need to research the structure of linux and those files. Also you need to get familiar with building a kernela well to see how they interact. Good luck
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Winky42:
All

Newbie posting here. Apologies in advance for a misplaced or repetitious post.

Could the forum weigh in on the pros and cons of the Android Development phones (Android Dev 2 and Nexus One) versus programming on the HTC Incredible directly?

Are there device-specific issues that the dev phones avoid?

Are they better representations of how all HTC (or android phones in general) behave?

Do they give a sense of the types of errors we would have with different phones (cross-device errors)?

Are they better for developing camera-based apps?

Thanks!

Hi forum,

I just got a Nexus S yesterday on craigslist. It was rooted and I check that everything worked fine before I got it. When I got home and tried to restore it, it is now stuck on the google screen with a unlocked lock icon at the bottom center of the screen. I can reboot in clockworkmod recovery but I have tried several tutorials out there to try and make something happen but to no avail.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions on how to restore or re-flash the phone back to the factory condition, that would make my day.

Thanks

This recovery has had NO faults with me so far. Some people have been saying they got this working on GT540 a while back but had issues. This one is fine. I never noticed if anyone had posted this recovery on here yet so here you are:

How to install:

Power the phone down and then put phone in to fastboot, POWER+Camera.

Plug usb in to PC.

Open CMD.

Put the file in the root of the C drive. (C:\)

In CMD type: cd C:\

Then type: Fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery_clockwork_2.5.1.8_swift.img

Once flash is finished type: Fastboot.exe reboot

As soon as the LG logo appears hold down the home button and wait for your new recovery to appear.

Well it's faster @ Backup of files. Similar restore speed though. Also has the ability to partition your SD straight from the Recovery. Which is a great feature for 2.1 users. There are other new features on it too. Not looked at everything yet, but if you require I'll have a good look tonight.
