actually, i don't know what a bootloader is... and i am still using the old ICS update...
is there any solution? i read that i should clear the clipboard but i cannot find it...
i think my phone has been rooted already as I followed a simple rooting with a chinese application via this forums as well..

is the problem that u cant find the directory OR is the file/folder not there???

It will help to flash a complete Rom with Flashtool.

Isn't it the same when he cannot find the directory or folder not there? Only problem is if he even bothered to search thoroughly.
To OP:
If you still have problems finding the folder, don't bother looking for it. Just do a fresh install of the stock ROM using flashtool and you should be able to fix it. Note that this method will wipe your user data and remove your root, so you will need to root your phone again after that.

You can still use Titanium Backup to back up any apps and their data, including the save data for games.

Swype on s5360

Good morning,
I have a little problem. I want to install Swype beta on this device, because the pre installed version of Swype it's pretty much out of date.
But Swype installer doesn't offer anything, because Swype is pre installed.
If i take just the apk from my desire HD it works but isn't able to use German language, only tells me, that it's not working...
But my mom, who owns the device, doesn't need Spanish or English but German.
so what can i do to make Swype installer work and offering me the latest beta?
Thanks in advance

I don't have cwm on it and haven't found a way to get cwm working. Last time i read in this forum there was just a temporarily solution for cwm on this device. didn't work with ROM manager either. But to be honest, I didn't try anything, because all over the thread they said, it ain't working permanently, just until next reboot :-/
Isn't there another solution?

sure thing buddy, here ya go in the attatchment, just select update from SD via Stock recovery and viola you got a working CWM for SGY
Remove system/lib swype related file thereafter ,u can install the latest.
Dl the attachment oh yea. Maybe u can cut off the swipe then push a new one to the system

And this will give me permanent recovery?
So I can flash ROMs as much as I wish and battery mods etc pp?
This would be awesome - I'll check it out
Is there any real difference between GT-S5360 and Y S5360?
This recovery looks weird on this phone, but hey, it's working.
Since I'm at the point where it's working, which ROM could you guys recommend?
But while backing up, it told me it couldn't mount /data - so the backup isn't complete, is it?
Well apparently it's not permanently, because I have to apply the update.zip every time to get cwm. But well, it's better than nothing.
btw: I just took an older version of swype from my desire hd (still newer than the one by samsung) and just installed it (it's a version where the german language pack was already included)

I'm not sure about flashing a custom rom. Because IF something goes wrong, I don't believe the backup won't work, since while making the backup it said, it couldn't mount /data - so I'm not sure that the backup will work if I restore it...
If you're on stock rom just uninstall pre-installed Swype (needs root) before installing Swype Beta. That's it.
did someone checked the CWM mod file attached on first page...

If you mean the update.zip which is supposed to give a real CWM, yes, I tried it and it gave me a real CWM - though only temporarily. After a reboot into recovery you'd have to flash it again but was enough to flash a selfmade battery mod

[Q] Backup without root

I bought myself a Nexus 4.
Now i'm trying to move everything from my current Desire HD.
Data like pics , music and so i'll just do manually trough pc , contacts i exported to SD and then imported them in Google , apps go trough play store and for text i'll use an sms backup app.
The problem is app data and settings.
There are some backup apps that can do it but they either require root or abdroid 4.0 and up.
My DHD is stock and unrooted , so my question , is there another option , way around it , very easy root method or whatever lets me backup the app data and settings ?
You need root and titanium backup.

Is there an easy way to root ? (doesn't need to be permanent i guess)
If you tell us which version of android you have we can advise you better...
Before rooting, Maybe you could try using "js backup" it's supposed to be able to backup without root, but, I've never not been rooted while using it, so can't be sure how good it is.

Yeah , my bad
(just assumed it was , as in stock has latest update)
Came across Carbon App Sync and Backup while googling solutions.
It is the predecessor of Helium and it should work for GB to (helium requires 4.0 or up).
Found the apk for it but can't open it on my phone , it says " prblom with pasing the package " , what does that mean ?

Googled some more and it appears that way indeed , bummer ...
Seems like rooting is the only way , so can someone point me out the easiest way to do that ?

My backup pro does backup without root. I have never used it so, I can really know how it works but I know that works without root access.

Yeah , but this is what i found in the play store :
Gebruikers met root toegang kunnen zowel APK+Data als Market links back-uppen

translated
Users with root access can backup APK+Data and market links

So i would think that it won't backup app data+settings without root ?
(if it was a free app i obviously would have tried it already)
Edit : it even says literraly :
NOTE: Data/setting of applications can only be supported if you have a rooted phone, or if the application integrates with us.

Have you tried JS BACKUP to see if that works on nonrooted phone?
Edit: just realised you can "unroot" phone in superSU temporarily, tried it myself it backs up, but FC trying to restore, so it must need root too :thumbdown:

Was looking into that but read this :
UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER WILL FACTORY RESET THE DEVICE AND YOU WILL LOSE DATA
Click to expand...

So i'm f ' ed either way ?
Root = loose data
Unrooted = no way to backup ...
I thought that only happens when you run a RUU. Can someone confirm?
I can confirm, bootlader will factory reset the device.

thanks don't hurt ya know?

So no way to get my app data to my new phone ?
No one that has a soluton for me ?

I use my backup pro. Its way simpler than titanium backup, and there is a free version but I paid for the pro. My backup will nack everything up for you but if your not rooted then it isnt able to access the app data so cant back it up. I dont think you will be able to find a solution without rooting. When I rooted I used the AAHK which is no longer available on xda as the dev fell fell out of love with them but can be found through google.

The rooted error in flashtool means your boatloader isn't unlocked... You will need to unlock boatloader to flash custom kernels...

If you follow the instructions closely, there should be no problems.
Make sure you read the requirements first.
If your phone is built before 12W11 (check under battery), you can also use test point method.
For more info, search. Been discussed ****loads of times.

You can't flash an apk, and you don't even need root, just go to settings>security>unknown sources and tick it, afterwards u can open apks and install them.

I won't.say that it's impossible but in practical terms, no. I haven't seen anyone post a script or app to do this. Normally you need root to manipulate the filesystem. It can actually be done by way of various exploits but it's simply easier and more useful to root a device.
