Hello everyone,
I'm a newbie to smart phones. I succcessful managed to create a goldcard and root my Desire to the generic HTC room using the 1 step r6 guide at modaco forums. I have managed to re-install my apps.
I'm just wondering whether it is possible to create a backup image so that if I was to go to a different rom which I didn't like I could restore the image to go back to the generic rom but with all my apps installed. Is a custom rom with all my apps on there the same as an image???
I read some stuff about nandroid here but it seems confusing and says that you need to create seperate backup for app settings.
sorry not sure if what I am saying is making sense.
Thanks for any help
I did a bit more reading and I guess it's not possible to backup an image and restore like you can with a hdd. So I can only restore to the provider or stock Roms, I would have to backup my settings and apps using an app like titanium but it won't allow me to update these apps unless I use the paid version?

Yes there is. User ROM Manager. I'm using it to switch back between Froyo and 2.1 Sense. Just create a backup before you flash ROM #2, then backup ROM #2 after configuring it. Then just restore from one of the two backups. Easy as pie!

Yes, use either ROM Manager or a recovery to make a nandroid backup. It will backup everything on your phone (apps, settings, etc - not the SD card though of course). The nandroid backup created (which you can also copy to your Computer, to be on the safe side) will be a 'snapshot' of your phone.
Hallo guys,
in order to try different roms on my phone, I would like to know witch is the best way to backup my current ROM, is there a way to create a ROM zip file with all my settings, accounts, apps, contacts, sms, ... witch I could reflash in case I need?
I've tried ROM Manager but is going to create me many files.
What about Nandroid backup (on Hboot/Recovery menu)?
And Titanium backup?
Should I use one of those backups to restore my system data and user data in case of a new rom flash?
thanks a lot
regards

Hi guys, quick question. I want to start flashing other roms but how to i make a backup of my current ROM?
Do i just enter CMW then do a backup from there?Does that backup mean the whole rom is backed up or just the apps and firmware? Is there somethign else i need to do?
Let me know, thanks in advance
That's what you do. It's a nandroid backup, so your complete system is backed up.

Just make sure you :
- DONT wipe out data and
- DONT make a factory reset
before making a backup
Thanks guys =) cant wait to flash Roms now
All The Best
Doing a nandroid is essential as it's an image of your phone you can go back to at any time.
I also would recommend downloading a backup app so you can save just your data and apps, it makes changing ROMs easier as you can just restore these onto your new ROM.
Hello,
I want to know if there is a flashable script ( or something else ) i could use to remove su/busybox from my system partition. I deleted my fully stock nandroid backup by mistake :angel: and it would be nice if i can make a new one from my rooted stock backup.
i used rooting tools provided here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2694564
Thank you.
