agreed, please only a fresh reload nandroid backup plz..

Why can't you wipe, load the RUU and then re-root to get what you want?

try a data wipe, root will persist. assuming you didn't mess too much stuff up you should be back to stock with su
but agreed, something like this would be useful if you messed it up and didn't backup first

i have one if you want it...i will upload it to mediafire...it has SU, superuser.apk, just use rom manager and choose install from sdcard and select the rom...
i will update with the link as soon as it is done...FYI i am also working on a completely deodexed /system/app folder

[Q] Installing other ROM's than CM7

Hey Guys!!
So I have some question to flashing new ROM's and I would greatly appreciate your answers.So first off I'm going to tell you what I already did do.
Permrooted my HTC DESIRE Z
Flashed CM7
So, now I see plenty of roms here in the android development section and here is are my questions:
1.If I want to flash these roms, do I just have to put them into the root of my SD cart and flash them per clockword recovery?
2.I know that I have to wipe data and cache before flashing, but is there a way to backup my current ROM(So my current homescreen, installed apps,saved messages) in case I don't like the new ROM?
Thanks very very much for your answers!

Flash any ROM just as you did CM7; as for backing up, which you should always do just incase the flash fails, there's an option to backup your current ROM in CWM. Sadly, it gives the backup a generic date/time name so I'd recommend backing up via RM which allows you to name the backup.

I would also recommend getting titanium backup Pro, its only a few $$ and it batch restores your apps. its a time saver if you flash ROMs often.

go to rom manager and click back up rom and name it the name of the rom and the date you backed it up
download titanium backup then open that and click batch then backup all apps and system data
then make a folder and call it ROMS and keep all your roms in there so its nice and organized
wipe and all that good stuff
then go back and flash the new rom the same way you did cm7
then install titanium again then click batch then restore all apps system data
if you dont like it just go back to rom manager and click manage backups and click on it and click restore and itll go back to your cm7

No, no, no ... Never restore system data unless flashing between like ROMs. You want to backup/restore apps and data (not system data).

THIS. Do not restore system data. The only reason to backup and restore system data is if you're planning on doing a complete wipe then re-installing CM7 (for example if you're trying to fix an issue) and want your settings back. Otherwise, don't backup system data!
Also, there's no need to make a new folder called "ROM's" or whatever. All of your backups will be organized (by date by default, but you can rename them) in the Clockwork Recovery folder on your SD card. Its best not to mess with these files (you can remove them and put onto your desktop if you need SD card space, but just leave them if you're worried). These backups don't necessarily have to be initiated by ROM manger either, they can be made while you're in recovery also, which saves you the trouble of having to wait for a reboot before wiping to flash the new ROM

Good tip! But I don't see an option to backup apps and data. Just batch app buckup or batch app buckup + system data.

just hit menu > batch. Then hit "Backup all user apps". That'll back up the apps with the data. Titanium Backup inherently includes the app data with the app backup, it doesn't just backup the plain .apk's.
Also remember that you need to re-backup all the apps before you flash a new ROM, that way the backups are up-to-date with the latest changes you've made to them.

Wow thanks for all your replies, you guys really helped me out!!
So, If I', allowed to, I'd like to ask if there is a way to get my original ROM back(The one what came with the original phone) on my phone.
And also I want you to ask if CM7 slows my Wifi down, because it feels kind of slower.
Thanks again, you guys are awesome

If you backed up your stock ROM just restore it, otherwise check the sticky in the dev forum or the wiki to download the stock ROM

If you've made a backup with ROM manger (nandroid backup) then you can simply restore this. I'm assuming you didn't if you're asking though. Check the wiki or dev section to find a stock rooted ROM. Make sure you get the stock rooted version, otherwise you're going to unroot yourself.

Have you done speedtests to confirm? This could be any number of issues, and I'm sure you're not the only one who has experienced WiFi slowdowns, but there's no known issue in CM7 that affects WiFi speeds.

No I didn't, but i saw The wifi Symbol in The notificationbar showing less bars than IT showed me on my stock ROM.
But i assume it's a Kind of Placebo effect because The wofür symbol in cm7 has Overall less Bars to fill then the stock one

Yea, less bars doesn't mean worse signal necessarily. CM7 reports signal with bars pretty accurately, moreso than the stock ROM for sure. If you want to know for sure, run comparative speed tests, or go to settings > about phone > status and see your WiFi signal strength.

Settle down. Seriously. Either way there is no need to create a folder for them. I'd be surprised if he had so many ROMs on his SDcard that he couldn't distinguish between them. They're all named appropriately or you can rename them. Also, there's no need to keep the .zip's on the SDcard after you've flashed anyways.

So say somehow you lose your rm backups and something goes wrong, then you have re download the rom and if you don't have a pc near by, you have to download it from your phone and all of us tmobile users know that downloading a rom uses a good amount of data, so if you wanna download a new one on your phone if you have to, have fun being throttled quicker. A friend of mine had that happen to him, he was ****ed so I let him use my sd card to flash the rom. And I only have glite and the rom I'm running now, I don't have every single rom on xda

If you lose your ROM manager backups, chances are you lost your SDcard, which also contained your initial ROM .zip's (aka lose one, you lose the other). Just keep the .zip's on your computer, its wasted space to have the originals and the backups on the same SDcard. Storage space ain't free.
I don't understand why you would download ROMs continuously over 3G when you can simply wait and download on a computer. Who needs to download a ROM that bad that they would be willing to go over their data cap for it? Seems to be a weird use-case, you clearly wouldn't download a ROM on 3G if you were close to your data throttle. I'm sure at that point your current ROM can last you the rest of the day till you get to a computer.
If you're "somehow losing" your ROM manager backups you might have other issues to deal with first.

This is actually pretty awesome. It was always tedious to have to get my phone half way set up and download titanium backup pro, then install all my apps. One click zips is just too cool.

Its under batch, scroll down till you see recovery mode, only one option that says create update.zip. Correct me if i am wrong.

This is music to my ears. As a recovering flashaholic, I fully realize how much time it takes to restore 100+ apps. Plus, I always feel like my phone is so laggy during the restore, so it really does take about 15-20 minutes. This step will be a HUGE time saver.
The one question I have is does the first boot take longer? Would you almost recommend flashing the ROM and booting first, let the ROM settle and then boot to recovery and flash the TB zip?

I actually didn't try flashing the zip yet, just did a backup for next time i flash a rom, so i don't know if it needs to be signed sorry. Maybe someone else can answer the question?

I flashed it no problem. Do not use the update.zip function in recovery. Just flash like a normal zip.

1. You need to boot up first then reboot recovery for it to flash.
2. In my case flashed correctly but all apps were FCing and a lot of lag and freezes.
3. Stick to old way till they fix the problem.

It is not necessary to sign update.zip unless you are using a stock recovery. Since most of us are rooted, I imagine we're also using a custom recovery so it won't be necessary. Like another user said, just flash it like normal.

After I create update.zip, can I edit it on my PC to add/remove items?

titanium backup insufficient storage error help

the solutions posted seem outdated or didn't work. backing up files worked great until today. I have over 10gb free space. tried also clearing and reinstalling. any help would be appreciated. I'm on paranoid android an this just started when I tried to backup additional apps today

For me it hasn't worked since day 1 of my nexus 7 it works on my galaxy nexus 4.2.2 so im guessing its a 4.3 issue.

You just have to go into TiBu preferences and back up a few places on where you store your backups. Worked for me this morning. Let me know if that doesn't make sense.

helium seems to get stuck about 3/4 of the way through. no luck at all with these backup programs

Here is how I fixed it go into TB preferences > Backup Folder Location
1. Next hit Back button till you are in the root folder of your device "/" ( this at the top)
2. Next click sdcard
3. Then click on the "Titanium Backup" folder. Top should say "/sdcard/ Titanium Backup"
4 . Then click use this folder

I have had the problem before as well. I suspect it is related to an old restore, but not sure. This always fixes it for me:
1. Unistall the app
2. Using Root Explorer go to System/Data/app-lib
3. Find and delete all references to the app you deleted
4. Open the Play store and re-install.
This can be done without uninstalling. When you navigate to app-lib you'll find multiple versions of the app mentioned. You keep only one (delete any duplicates), then go to System/ Data /Dalvik-cache and delete the same duplicates (if you kept -2 in app-lib, keep -2 in Dalvik). Wiping dalvik in recovery won't work. It regenerates at re-boot with the dups at least it did for me).
I have had success with both methods, but find the 1st method always works & the 2nd method does not, as it is easy to miss a copy in dalvik. The Dalvik versions are deleted for you with the uninstall so I find it simpler.
I spent weeks looking for this solution a while back for my GNex so I hope I've saved you a headache or two.

This is basically how I fixed the problem on my N4 and N10 as well. Basically, you're backing up to the same location, it's just that TiBu doesn't like the old file path (for me, it was: /storage/emulated/0/TitaniumBackup) and wants you to use a different one (for me, it is: /storage/sdcard0/TitaniumBackup).

This was the ticket for me. After deleting cache and data, looking for odex files, reinstalling from play store. I had tried changing path to start but I still chose emulated to a different location so it still didnt work lol.

So glad I found this thread, it works! Thank you

I have had the same problem since moving from CM 10.1 to CM 10.2. Seems my super su also wants to update binaries after every nightly flash. Can't update binaries normal way so I flash them in TWRP. After the supersu flash, my titanium backup works perfectly.

I've tried everything except re flashing the phone. Nothing at all works, and I'm at the end of my rope. EDIT: Here's the only thing that fixed it! Downloaded SuperSU, allowed it to boot into recovery to update the binary, and now TIBU works fine! That was the ONLY solution that worked.

Automatic twrp backup?

Not sure if this belongs here but it is a question, lol.
Are there any apps/mods that would allow me to set up an automatic backup time/date to backup my ROMs?
By this I mean is there a was to have my phone automatically run twrp and make a nandroid while I sleep, possibly delete the old backup while I'm at it?

Im sure it can be done. Anything is possible on xda! Unfortunately im not sure right now how to tell you to go about it. Is this something that an app like Tasker and/or a script manager might help with?

Try an app called Online Nandroid Backup. The name is a bit misleading but be assured, it does not use the internet to make nandroids.

Online as in the device is still booted up im guessing? You could also write up a script to run the dd command to dump your data partition to a .img file. Then as I mentioned before use something like Tasker or a script manager to schedule it to run.

Not sure if this belongs here but it is a question, lol.
Are there any apps/mods that would allow me to set up an automatic backup time/date to backup my ROMs?

I use Rom manager Pro and it has automatic backup provision where you can set it with date and time and it will create backup automatically
You too can try

Thanks guys I'll look into each option tonight.
I was thinking about doing docs suggestion but I don't know how to make the script run at certain times without possibly causing some weird issue. Tasker should solve that

I've heard good things about gscript as well. There are probably a number of script management apps in the play store you can try too. Didn't think about Rom Manager, but there are also TWRP apps that might do the same. If you go that route just use whichever app goes with your preferred recovery.

Rom Manager Pro has an option "manage backup and restore" and in that automatic backup is by default off so if you turn it on then it will be asking you to put backup time then days.
Then it will keep your Rom backed up.
