Hi people.
I was using rom manager for a long time now to backup restore my roms on DHD.
A few days before i try to backup my new rom Blackout ICS Incredible v3.0.0 and my phone freeze.
I went to recovery mode and fix it.
Is there any other app to backup my phone?
Also i notice rom manager update in store.Did they fix this issue ?
Cheers
Use 4ext recovery. It's much better than CWM. It doesn't support as many phones as CWM, but the DHD is one of the few it does. Also any backups you've made with CWM are fully compatible with 4ext. You can get the donation 4ext Recovery Control app from Play Store which has a ton of other features apart from backing up and restoring. Alternatively, if you don't want to pay for the app, you can do everything directly in recovery too. The app is just a frontend to make it easier. Hardly anyone uses CWM + ROM Manager for the DHD anymore because this is better.
Instructions -
1) Go to www.4ext.net
2) Download 4ext Recovery Updater from there (free).
3) Run app and flash 4ext Touch Recovery from it. That's all. You can also just get the paid 4ext Recovery Control app from Play Store (worth it bigtime) and flash recovery from there instead of going to the website and doing all that I said above.

I Use 4EXT Recovery Updater And 4EXT Recovery Control. Its Really Good And User-friendly.
+1 for 4ext.
I never use rom manager - I've heard of too many problems
I use 4ext and I really like it. You may also try TWRP, which is also a touch recovery. However, it's a flashable zip so it may be easier for you to install compared the 4ext recovery updater package (probably not much, I'm just used to flashing a lot of ROMs).
I don't think TWRP is available for DHD, is it?

TWRP is available for DHD. I used it for awhile on my Inspire 4G, and it also works for DHD. However, I have had problems installing inspiremod for my Inspire 4G with it. It has Goomanager, which is nice. I use 4ext now though.
Oh cool. I wasn't aware of that. I never saw a thread for it in the development forum. How do you install it? Through GooManager?

Yes, through Goomanager.
dude, 4ext is the best and there is alot of support around recent roms and earlier also. go for it
Well, I tried Cyanogen, AOPK and now I tried PARANOID 2.0.
None of them works, GAPPS works, but I get the Status 7 error while installing a ROM, i'm using the SGH-T999V and none of them works.
How are you trying to install them?

You are rooted and trying to install with cwm or twrp recovery, right.
I ask because that error reminds me of stock recovery for some reason...

Status 7 errors can occur in ClockworkMod for everyone saying he's using a stock recovery.
Make sure your rooted and you should be good
Hey SGH-T999V,
I think we'd all love to help, but we need some more information. Can you tell us step by step exactly what you are doing? Once we have that, I think we will be able to help you past this.
I am fully rooted with clockworld recovery 5.0.4 or something, installing zip from sdcard then Status error 7 and yeah...
From what I've gathered, status 7 errors usually occur when the ROM is incompatible with the device e.g when flashing a CDMA rom on a GSM phone. My first advice would therefore be to confirm that the zip file is for the correct GS3 variant. You mentioned aokp and CM. Both these ROMS refer to the T999 as "d2tmo" and the zip files usually contain this in the name (e.g cm-9-20120909-NIGHTLY-d2tmo.zip). I would therefore check this first before anything else.
Assuming that's not the issue, some suggestions would be:
1. This is a longshot, but try toggling signature verification and see what happens. I doubt this is the issue but I have had update zips fail because this was accidentally toggled
2. Try updating CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766552
3. Try changing the recovery to TWRP and see if its the recovery. The easiest way I've found is to use the GooManager app. Install from the play store. Run the app. Hit the menu key and select Install OpenRecoveryScript. Reboot into the TWRP recovery and try flashing from there.
4. Try rerooting the device from scratch
I got this error when I rooted using the Sprint method. I had to reflash cwm using Rom manager before I could install Cyanogen

I had the same problem. I updated cwm and it fixes it. Your version is old....

Just updated CWM to 6.0.1.2 and tried to flash with TWRP... same Status 7 error with every single ****ing ROMs i'm trying to install.
Wiped everything many times before installing zip, nothing works... i'm giving up and downloading stock ROM until Samsung releases official JB 4.1.
You might have to go back to stock and root it again

could try installing the roms with Odin
Could try downloading the roms using Rom manager pro and having it install them
You just got to get one to work and you'll be golden
Is it a setting problem in cwm?
Like toggling allow installation of unsigned packages

Just update cwm to a newer version. I promise that'll fix it.

Hi, there,
just looking for solution for the same problem and got this thread...
well, I was rooted and on cyanogen and everything worked fine.
had backups and stuff.
decided to return to stock just to have it updated and backed up and after that to return to cyanogen.
when in CWM, after stock, while re-root-ing, I did a fix permission which erased some of my system files in the backups, so all my backups on the phone became useless (lesson #1: always move your backups away from the phone).
decided to start from scratch, so using ODIN I flashed the proper stock ROM for T999V. Installed the CWM version 5. something, superuser etc.
made a backup this time and store it outside the phone
when I tried to flash the cyanogen 10.0 for m2tmo (which I've flashed before without trouble), I got the error message as our friend here.
I edited the updater-script file in order to erase the first lines and got it flashed...
the problem that I have right now is that I am stuck in the first screen when the cyanogen keeps going round and round and round.... and nothing happens
any suggestion from here?
http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/ClockworkMod_Recovery#Status_7
The status 7 error can be from a bad download, bad signature, and I have seen it from using an old version of clockwork. I would first make sure you are running the most current version of recovery. if that doesn't solve your problem try redownloading the Rom.
This started happening a while ago (app crashing) on a different rom, and since then I've tried the following with no success;
New rom
New kernel
Full wipe
New gapps (not required on my current rom)
relocked and unlocked bootloader, upgraded from 0.95 to 1.28
Nothing seems to be working on any rom, and now I have just got out of a battery bootloader bootloop the past couple days my phone seems also unable to handle connections; I supposedly have signal however I receive no texts, data connection isn't working as my gmail account has not been synced (so I have no contacts etc) and wifi crashes when I turn it on.
I'm starting to worry this may be a hardware fault! However considering I have unlocked my bootloader I won't be able to return it under warranty! Can you suggest anything else to try? I haven't fully wiped my whole storage (sd card and all) is that an option to try?
Thanks for any help I can get
bump, really stuck here
If you you are using an AOSP Rom a special kernel is required for the new HBoot. Or has this happened on the old HBoot too? If so a hard reset might solve the problem.

Yeah I am using an AOSP rom but it happened on HBOOT 0.95 and still on 1.28. Is that a factory reset from the bootloader? Also which kernel is it? I just used the boot.img included in the zip
You can do it from the bootloader. Essentially its just wiping everything including the sd storage. I dont have much time to look for it right now because im working. But if you use the search function you should find it have you tried to redownload the rom?

This is the rom I'm using atm http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784185 (CM is based on AOSP right?)
and is this the kernel you're talking about? http://htcfanboys.com/download/seadersn/?action=view&file=14552 ? However don't I also
need the zip to flash in CWM?
Yes it is an AOSP Rom, but you dont need the the modified kernel because tripnraver solved the problem in his kernels and Rom. Since you have the problem on other ROMs too i would suggest to perform a hard reset and see if the problem still exists. Just backup everything and reflash Rom.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I might try this AOKP rom that I used before, according to the OP there is a specific boot.img you must use for HBOOT 1.28, so I've downloaded that to and when I get home I'll give it a try. It says a full wipe is required, does that just mean cache/dalvik/wipe in CWM or do I need to run the SuperWipe.zip?

Sorry I just saw this reply, I'll try a factory reset before I try the other rom, cheers
I cant factory reset, everytime I do it just goes into CWM?
I just formatted each partition separately in CWM, re installed etc and pretty much everything seems to be back up and running However I am still having the SMS crash issue :S even though my whole SD card is wiped
At least the rest is working still weird though. Does that happen with any sms app?

I have a Primo C running the 11/18 AOKP ROM. It 's running extremely slow and I'm constantly having to reboot. I decided to flash one of the Sense ROMs instead, but I'm not sure how to.
I think I'm going to flash Amazing Sense. Should I flash back to stock first? Or can I just flash Amazing Sense over my custom ROM?
Also, I have Titanium Backup Pro and I have backed up all my apps + system data to my SD card. How do I restore all of this later? Should I just restore everything or should I only restore Play Store Apps? I'm not sure what will happen if I try to restore everything and it starts restoring things like Bluetooth and the keyboard that came with the ROM.
Thanks
Flash the xtremesensex3 ROM.. You don't have to flash all the converters and this one runs much better. Haven't had any issues
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app
Alright, I'll take a look.
What about Titanium Backup Pro, what should I do with my backup? Not flashing a new ROM until I know that.
Also, do I have to flash a kernel separate with any of these ROMs? I don't believe I did with AOKP when flashing from stock. I've never really understood when or why to flash kernel...
Hahaha well that's why its rebooting I think either that or your stock firmware... If your coming from an ICS ROM going to another ICS ROM then you don't have to re flash the kernel but going from JB to Ics you do.. but seeing you haven't flashed one as you said.. I'm guessing you have a ICS kernel as of now. As of titanium back up you can just re download it and then go inside and re download all your Apps?

Sorry I wasn't more clear. It's not rebooting itself. It just gets to the point where it's really slow and glitchy and I reboot it manually. Is there a way to check my current kernel?

#1 PREEMPT Sun Nov 18
So I guess I did flash a kernel because the Nov 18 date corresponds to the date of the ROM I used, and I know JMZ is a dev on here.
So when I flash the x3reme Sense ROM, will a kernel flash automatically or when I flash boot.img? Or do I need to flash a kernel completely separate?

Download an ICS boot.IMG and just flash the ROM and then fast boot flash the boot.IMG depending on the kernel you may need to flash a zip with it too

x3reme sense comes with a boot.img in the .zip. Can I just flash that instead of a separate ICS boot.img?
So I would wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, factory reset.
Flash the x3reme sense zip
Flash GApps
Flash boot.img
Also, what version of GApps do I need to use with this ROM?

Hi
A few days ago my phone developed a big problem; when at home I get zero reception - msg reads 'disconnected because service is not available. Sometimes even when not at home I have a few bars but if someone calls it goes straight to voicemail or says that the service is not available. I used to get full reception at home. The problem is not due to a network fault as my wife is on the same network and she still gets a full signal.
I was using viper x rom 3.5 and had not messed with roms for several months. Just prior to the problem happening I was connected to the pc via USB . I noticed that something was wrong when poweramp stopped playing and all my music files were not recognised (this may or may not be related to the problem) and I had to restart the phone and rescan for music.
I have tried several solutions including flashing the last viper rom (3.8) and trying a different sim, but nothing has worked. I have still lost all reception where I used to have a great signal (and someone on the same network in the same house still does).
Even at work with a reception I sometimes don't receive texts and often takes a few attempts to send them.
Does this sound like a hardware fault that I will need to send my phone in for repair. Or could there be any other solutions?
Thanks
Have you flashed the corresponding boot.img?

Yes. The problem didn't happen when messing with a new rom. I had been on viper 3.5 for months then it just happened. I upgraded to viper 3.8 today to see if that would help, and I flashed the boot.img. The rom installed fine but I still have the same issue.
After installing did you also do a full wipe?
Edit: if you did a clean install you can always try flash a different kernel and corresponding modules

Sorry for all the questions, I have only flashed a few roms.
I downloaded a stock rom for my version from the collections thread. It is a 7zp file not a zip file. When I open it it doesn't have a boot.imag. I think this is a twrp backup and I use the emmc.win file?
I have twrp installed as my recovery but I am not sure what to do.
Do I copy the emmc.win file to the fastboot folder like I would if it was a boot.img and then flash in the same way?
I am also not sure what to do with the nandroid 7zp backup. Do I extract it (or not) and then put it direct on to my sd card? Or do I place it within my twrp folder?
Do I need a custom recovery, I am not sure which one to use for version 3.14.
Sorry for all the questions.
Thanks

You need a recovery that supports both cwm and twrp nandroids.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240646
That is philz touch recovery, I use it, touch works and it supports both cwm and twrp nandroids.
Now you need a nandroid, check your CID + Version main and get your nandroid here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
Make sure you have the nandroid you downloaded in the right folder, do a full wipe, restore it, and flash the boot.img. That is all
Thanks. What is the right folder? Do I use the recovery to do the full wipe before I flash?
I used that link and have my version for HG3__001 but there is no boot.img in the 7zp file I downloaded.
I think clockworkmod/backups
Yeah you do a full wipe with it.. well if there is no boot img or boot emmc in the file then its not a complete backup..
I just noticed that you found a boot emmc file (s/t like that) flash it like any other boot.img
