Hey. Is there a way to create a duplicate game app so I can manage two profiles? I used to do it on my iPhone all the time, but I haven't figured out how to do it on Android yet. Any help is appreciated.
Btw, rooted and I have a good file Explorer and TiBu. Thanks.

There might be a way for experienced modders and the like. You could edit the package name and it's manifest prevent it from overwriting the current app. I have no clue how to do this though. Another option is to find another device and just install it there. I think the latter would be a lot simpler and easier. Hope I helped!

I may try to look through some things to do it. Whenever I unzip an apk, edit what I want, rezip it, change it to. Apk, and try to install it I get a parse error, though. It's extremely frustrating. And I only have the one device, unfortunately.
That parse error is because you edited the apk and didn't recompile and resign it. Look in Software Development for a tool to do those for you. Hope I helped!

So after some serious research, I found that in TiBu, I could just turn the app into a multi user app and setup different data profiles for it and switch between them as I so desire.
You should have just checked your duplicate thread. I posted it in there yesterday. Lol.

I certainly can. First, near the bottom on the main TiBu page it says active days profile, tap to switch. Tap that and create Two profiles. One for each account.
Then go to the backup/restore tab. Scroll down to the app you want to dup and tap it, swipe right, and click enable multiple profiles. Viola.
Now you can either go into TiBu and switch data profiles every time you want to switch accounts or simply create the TiBu data profile widget.
Let me know if you have any more problems.

Ok so I'm trying to search just the epic4g area of the forum with my xda app. But I can't seem to figure out how. I have a bunch of questions that the wiki didn't answer but I'm sure someone has asked so I don't want to again. But. When I search I get stuff from other deviece forums as well. Any ideas
Thanks. And is there a thanks feature?

Buy Titanium back up from the Market. Get busy box from with in the app. Do a batch back up of apps and data. Export contacts to SD card if they are not in your Google account. Once you root make sure you do a NANDROID back up. Flash way. Go to Market d/l Titanium "free" the license will automaticly turn it to pro it. Batch restore. Done.

Ok, question 1 is odd, if you an issue updating and all you have done is rooted and changed to the Clean Kernel, its possible you got a bad download. Your best bet is to PM dRockstar on that one. Its really strange if it shows updates available and won't, that's some random issue
On to question 2...definately make a nandroid backup. Power down the phone. Hold volume down, camera button, and power on all at the same time. Scroll down with volume key and select backup/restore. Then select backup and let it do its thing. It takes a few minutes but then you have a backup to rely on BUT its always best to take out your SD card and backup everything to your PC. Nandroid backups aren't always perfect and sometimes if you use one it may not work. If you flash a ROM, its best to install apps fresh but you can (after flashing ROM) boot into recovery, scroll to backup/restore, then advanced, then restore data only. Some ROMs may give you fits that's why its always best to have a saved version of everything on your PC as well

Apps bought from the Amazon Market can only be updated through the Amazon Market. The markets are separate and do not share purchase records. You'll need to have Amazon, and update through it, which is, unfortunately, a little slow on pushing out updates. Rest assured, they will come. Dev pages like SetCpu will post the app free sometimes, but the version in the market is donation-ware. If you want to get it updated for free, you'll have to go back to the page you originally got it and get a new one.

A couple things here:
What CWM are you on? If you have to update it for a new rom, be aware that the Nandroid backups will not be compatible, and you'll have to odin back to re-use a backup, should something go wrong. I don't know about Swiss Cheese, you'll have to read the posts in it's thread to know if it can flash without losing data. I've posted a rom called RandomROM that is based off of SRF 1.1.0, which can flash over another version of SRF safely, but may not work properly in other situations.
Thanks for the info on the updates
And I'm on cwm 2.5.1
I have a nandroid backup, a mybackup back up. Ill get that other one as well and ill see how things go and then try n flash a rom

Is it possible for me to customize my launcher however I want and place the apk into a rom or theme and once flashed and installed my launcher would already be exactly as I always had it?
I'm not trying to back it up and restore it.

I understand what you're saying, as I do a similar thing with my roms. What I do is simply copy in the data with the launcher apk. However, widgets never restore properly. One could modify a launcher to change the defaults, but I couldn't tell you where to begin.

Ya I kind of figured it would be possible since different launchers have a different "stock" setting that they set the home screen so I wanted to see if it was possible to edit that "stock" into whatever I want. But it may be a little bit too much to do. I may think about it later, but not for now. Thanks though.

What's CIQ? Is that like an ATRAC? I think I heard about that in a museum.
Such old news. Only a few months ago but yet it seems to have faded completely.
We should go back to using those KnowCIQ banners. To prevent that kind of thing in the future. Though I don't really care.
So.... The Chinese have all my top secret data?
So, suprising no one has tried to remove it, rewrite one without it, or just blatantly expose the code. Probably could make some headlines considering how widely used GoLauncher is. I hear and see people talk about it but I've only seen references. (the again, never really researched it other than Google.... <- - - THE WORLDS LARGEST CIQ?)

This app vindicates every hope I had for the S Pen. I can scribble a quick note and export the text straight into GTasks, or a host of other apps. I can write page after page and then convert just the parts I want straight into text by circling it. The management of notebooks and pages is simple and intuitive. I liked S Notes OK, but this is in another class.

Follow the link to the video. The handwriting conversion can be real-time without writing in another area of the screen, or it can be converted later. I know it seems a small thing, but it is not.

Here's a Note2 safe version of the app to flash. The only difference is that the script is modified and rewritten to accommodate the file system of the Note2 as opposed to the Xoom, which it was originally written for. Basically, this version is tested and set up for the Note2 specifically.
I need a few of you guys to test it out before I post a thread for it. This app works 100% for me.
Removed download. Visit this thread to play with the work in progress.
Many thanks! Downloaded and flashing now. Comments to follow.

Installed fine, but the wheel that you use to convert text is missing. Actually, it is there, I just cannot see it. Also, the first couple of characters are a very heavy pen weight, but then it gets real thin.
Just backed up all apps with TiBu and planning on a factory reset to try again.

It's the same thing in the Xoom version. The only difference here is the script isn't formatting your caches to yaffs.
Factory reset did the trick. The wheel is back. The pen weights are still goofy, but it works just fine. I'll keep you posted, but it is sure nice to have the text wheel back.

I meant that you have the ability to have it only download over WiFi so mobile data doesn't get used unexpectedly. Some apps have similar settings but include the ability to "force" the download on mobile. Presently, you can switch the settings on the fly to accomplish this, but it's not ideal. That's all I meant.
