hi
ok firstly, im no techie. i rooted and installed CM7 because people said it was good so i thought id try it. luckily it all went ok as i dont know what id have done if i had an error
but im now thinking why did i do that???
can anyone help me with these problems please?
ive lost my contacts. i want to sync with my gmail acc to get them back but cant see any gmail on there and when i try to connect to that acc using sync it wont let me.
i dont seem to have a 'market' any more so cant download any more apps. id like facebook app back and link to my contacts.
i just dont know my way around this new interface, and dont understand all it can do. have i been a bit daft installing it?
ive been on the android forum and asked same question and been told i need to instal the gmail app from oover here, but i cant find it. pretty confused by it all. mebbes rooting and roms arent for me :-(
thanks
You forgot to flash google apps (it's in first post inside CM7 thread)
http://goo-inside.me/gapps/
Download & flash the Universal CM7 version.

sorted. thanks a lot
Hello all,
I remember something about google automatically backing up all my apps when I first set up my phone and/or market access. I have also heard of apps being automatically reinstalled after members on this board have flashed new roms and wiped all data. I have never had this happen to me but it would be super convenient.
Is there anything I can do to activate that feature?
Thanks.

Yep install a aosp ROM .... cm9 aokp codename miui etc

if you are not running a cyn mod or AKOP, I suggest you use Titanium Backup to rip the apks into an archive where you can reinstall them if anything happens.
Thanks both but I installed cm9 and that didn't happen. Any ideas?
I've been a little confused on the exact procedure myself, and have felt super lucky when it just...works. lol
I do know this: if your on a gingerbread rom or even ics, once you let the market update to Google play after a wipe/flash, log in to your Gmail, press menu>my apps> slide over one pane and you will see every app you've ever downloaded under that Gmail. I found apps from like 2009 lmfao

They will show up in a few minutes / hours after restore

It would appear as though this android commander app has broken the market links. Best course of action would be to use titanium backup and redo the procedure. If you don't want to root either devices though, try redownloading from the store, and pray it doesn't wipe the user data.
thank you guys
I dont want to root coz of the warranty void issue..
I had a wildfire be4 this(Still have it).. nd even though i know what all can i do after rooting i jus cant take the risk of loosing my warranty on such an expensive phone..
anywais getting back to the topic
-I dont have any major user data yet..i mean i jus bought the phone yesterday.. i have hardly had my hands on it
-The APK's that im installing are the backup(Also via android commander) of my apps (Just apps,no data) of my wildfire
-Is there any good app/software which will backup jus the apk's on the phone along with the market links so that i can install it via sd card??.. coz downloading each and evey app again could be a pain in the a*s??
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-My phone's software version is 1.26.720.2... nd im get the option of a system update.. should i take it??..coz i remember that when we got the 2.2 update for the wildfire.... mostly no body downloaded it as it updated the bootloader.. nd there was no way to crack the bootloader.. so again, should i take this update?? its of 33mb
If you go to google play store using your pc and log into your account you can then send apps direct to your phone via wifi.
Check the my apps tag to see what you have previously downloaded.
Can someone guide me on the FOTA updates??

We don't have S-Off, so we don't know which bootloader (if any) will get S-Off.
As you know, if you upgrade bootloader, you cannot downgrade it without S-Off.
Your choice.
Do the system update and once you login with ur PC and go to play store. try installing one app from there and then all apps will be automatically start showing on your device app store

Thank U for the info..
Here is LT28i Stock Roger JB: Deodexed, Prerooted, Debloated and DeGoogled with Nakedbrowser integrated.
All Roger bloatware removed. All social apps, facebook, twitter etc. removed. All Google apps removed. Google Services Framework removed. Google one time initialization removed. Sony update removed.
This rom is deodexed by me, unlike the previous one that was just prerooted and therefore moved to general section. Rom is very light (only 355mgb in zip) and battery conscious. K9 mail and Textsecure can replace stock SMS and Conversations. Gibberbot can replace any messaging app. All three are open source and freely available on the internet (gpl license).
You must be rooted and have CWM recovery, as is always the case with CWM flashing.
Instructions:
1. Start recovery, mount system, cache and data. Format each (you can do instead data erase/factory reset, but that won't get rid of everything).
2. Flash the rom.
If you were on JB LT28h, you are all set, just reboot. If you were on ICS, DON'T REBOOT. Instead do the following:
3. Turn off your phone and flash Roger stock JB FTF with flashtool. Untick everything but kernel; exclude everything, but baseband. You need LT28i basebands, as it has been reported that ICS basebands produce crappy results on JB: problems with H/H+ and/or LTE. Also, if your LT28at is simunlocked, by flashing Roger basebands, you can restore T-Mobile's H and H+ (1700), which is blocked in AT&T firmware.
WARNING: If you were on ICS and you don't do the third step, you will end up in a boot loop.
After boot, you will have to reinstall Busybox and CWM, which were not incorporated in this rom. Remember, without busybox, you won't be able to install CWM.
To lovers of Google apps: you can install them on your own. They are freely available.

DISCLAIMER: You may hard/soft brick your device. Do the above at your own risk. If you kill your device, file a complaint with the International Criminal Court.
Would you please tell me the benefit of using Rogers instead of Generic International firmware?
LT28i has a different hardware: radio and frequencies. It has lte, which LT28h doesn't.
LT28h has better H+ upload speed. This requires software changes. I had problems with lte conection when I installed LT28h rom (and used ICS LT28i radio): breaking down, loss of packets and improper switching. Those problems went away with Roger, which is the only officially released rom for LT28i.
Will try this rom out. Have no problem getting Google back on here so thanks. Well report back.
Can you add pic if u cant ill add it when i flash.

Here is the latest battery usage screen shot. Pretty good. I am starting to feel like I have my good old Nokia usage.
this is better for at&t ion? I have lt28h with ics baseband and it is crappy the signal is very bad.
Just flash Roger's baseband and you will see improvement.
I will try your rom, sounds real good.
Edit-
Had problems with google. Since it is degoogled. Can you add a version with google? Or a gapps zip or something like that? Thanks
You should have no problems installing Google apps. Just search xda forums or the internet. They are freely available. But if you install them, your phone will become laggy again and your battery will die in 10 - 12 hours.

Rom seems to be fast, and stable but after flashing gapps playstore did not work, neither did contacts sync.

Flashing wouldn't do. This rom does not have Google Services Framework. I would try direct install starting from Google store. Googleplay may install GSF, but keep in mind that GSF is primarily responsible for lagging and battery usage. Through this your phone is almost always connected to Google servers and transmits info about everything you do including keystrokes etc. Without mentioning privacy issues, this makes your processor work overtime and kills the battery.
Android is the best OS around, because it is based on Linux, but only so if you deGoogle it. Yes, you will lose Googleplay, but I am yet to find a single application that cannot be downloaded from other sources. Note, I am not talking about getting paid applications. I am talking about free apps that are available at Googlestore. They are all available elsewhere.

I agree with what you just said, and yes it is a great idea. But in my case, without google my contacts would not sync. I do not care about google play because I use aptoide or blackmart... It is better lol. what I used to do was to turn automatic sync off and sync manually.

I no longer have deleted apps, but I would look into Spetre's deodexed LT28h system/apps and look for googlesync adapter. I would then put it into your system/apps (with appropriate permissions) and see if that helps. You may also need to install google account (also in that rom), but I am not sure if it would work absent GSF.

Try this:
http://yadi.sk/d/sfsmY8IJ7vsNW
It contains 4 files: Google backup transport; Contacts sync adapter; Calendar sync adapter; and Google Login Service They are from Roger's rom.
I would start with contacts sync, if still doesn't work, add google backup and then google login. They have to be installed in system with usual permissions. That's all I can do. Good luck.

Thanks I will try it later.
Edit-I made a flashable cwm .zip from lt28h prerooted stock apps and framework. To flash into this rom.
Big improvement on T-Mobile service (sim Unlocked)

I had problems with other roms since I have a straight talk sim card which works with at&t towers I went back to stock lt28at firmware and I manage to deodex latest update myself and root it, debloated it with speedy droid and titanium backup. So far it works great for me.
This rom (Slim Rogers) seems to help tmobile users I guess.
Yea it does big improvement i have lte 24/7 now.

Ok, so I have ended up on this rom with my SGH-I317M (canadian version)
Seems to work ok, except for a few things.
I really dont care about android 7.. I would just like to get this working as best I can.
Anyone direct me to a good thread? or can you help?
1 - I cannot see my storage anymore when I plug into the computer. It shows a GT-7105N now.. and it is blank. the storage is there.. I assume this is a debug issue.. or developers etc..???
2 -I use google calendar - a calendar was on the phone after the rom and the g-apps install, but had a big + sign on the icon, and when I tried to use it, asked for my account.. but then said the account was already there.. I ended up having to go to google play.. downloading calendar again.. which it did install as another app.. and that works.. but what am I missing here?
I have searched as best I know how, but is there a ResurrectionRemix-Marshmellow thread somewhere I am not finding??
James
OK, up to 5.7.4 now and seems to be good. Disabled the google calendar from the AOSP and loaded the older Calendar on.. seems to work fine. Yes I was surprised that RR does not set Media transfer by default .. thats why I could not see my cards. GPS is working like a charm.
SO something breaks the GPS going from kitkat to Marshmellow. No idea what.. but I guess I am Android 6 + going forward.
