Hi, I new to the android platform, but I am a longtime xda user. But I did spend most of my time at ppcgeeks. I'm coming from the pro2 and the titan before that, and both were on winmo.
So here is what I am looking for, I want a spb backup type of app to save all my programs, user info and the like. I would also like a gprofile type of app also. I'm kind of nervous about rooting until I can backup the things I have downloaded and the username/passwords I have saved.
I have searched through the market and google for both of these and couldn't find anything on either of these. I have found everything else I needed, it is just these two that I can't find. Maybe I was searching for the wrong terms or something, so any help would be appreciated.
One last thing, does anybody have any recommendations for websites that stream tv that work with our phones. I can't get atdhe or Justin.tv either one to work. And of course my Hava product doesn't have a working android app. Being the avid college football fan that I am, I need to find a good solution for this too.
Thanks for any and all help
Brandon.
Titanium backup will save your apps and app data system settings Bluetooth and wifi conections and stuff but you need to be rooted to use it.
Sms backup an a restore will back up and restore your text and you don't need root access.
Google backs up you r system setting s and wallpaper if you allow it. It will also redownload you r apps but not the data you had with them.
This all gets restored when you sign in your google account.

I put android (frodo) on my HD2 last weak but now i want to switch to the Desire HD version. the only thing that is stopping me is my Text messages (sms).
I want to know where i can find them on my SDcard and if i also can put them back after installation of the Desire HD version.
( or do i keep the SMS/ text messages when i switch from the frodo build to the desire hd build?)
Best Regards and Already Thanks a lot

Btw i have searched for this for more then an hour so if the answere is already given on the site i applogize.
why not just use one of the many backup programs available such as titanium?
Thanks a lot didnt knew there was a program for that...
For Root use Titanium with SU permission. Works amazing. Just do a batch backup with all apps and data.
Does anyone know of an android app that saves your ringtones selections?
There was a windows mobile "app" called KeepMy Tones that was designed to easily restore your selections to contacts, alarms, SMS, etc after you hack your phone.
This would be awesome, not only for those who flash ROMs a lot, but also for those of us that have the "losing ringtone selection" problem mentioned in numerous Atrix forums.
I've searched extensively in market and forums with no luck. If there is not something similar, I would be more than willing to pay for this app if someone would like to design it (I can install mods/hasks, but have no clue how to write them )
Thanks to anyone with ideas
Edit: BTW, I am already using Titanium Backup and this does not seem to work to restore contacts/app tone assignments on my phone.
Hi all. I've been following XDA for a long time. But since i am more into the hardware i need some help with the software.
I ordered a Bedove I5 from Uredeal.com . And i am not sure if the chinese have put some code in it which make all the things that goes over the internet is send trought there servers.
Whenever i open a chat (whatsapp, fb messenger etc.) and send something. It has a time stamp of 6 hours later. And messages i receive have a normal time stamp. This also happens with multiplayer games like wordfeud. an active game says for 6 hours long that its 0 seconds ago i made a move. and after 6 hours its going to count. I even got an email from google that someone in china tried to login to my account but they blocked it. I want to use my mobile also for mobile banking but with this in my mind its just not save and i dont want to take the risk.
If i manage to make a back-up from my rom, can someone take a look at it and if possible fix it for me (clean up my rom)?
I thank the person(s) that are willing to help me in advanced.
If someone knows a link to a clean rom for my device. Feel free to post.
Edit: I couldnt find one by myself.

IMO, its more likely a poorly written ROM than spying going on. Either way I'd steer away from Chinese imports. It's not worth it. Spend a bit more for a real phone.

How can you comfirm that? It can be both ways. But since i use this phone people out of china try to get on my gmail acc. So by this i think your argument false.
And the quality of chinese phones are getting higher and higher. I have totally no negative points about the phone. Its a good product. It doesnt even freeze which i see at most smartphone models. Everything workes good as it should be. No wifi or connectivity problems.
Ill try to root it and make a backup so people can look at it. And confirm if its a bad rom or spying. My feeling says spying.
There are some apps on it with the title in chinese. Cant delete them without root and dont know if they contain system information or the information they send everyting to...

Have you tried to do a factory reset?

I managed to make a back-up with mtkdroidtools. The funny thing is. When i finished the back-up. I saw a function in mtkdroidtools named "remove china". I tried that button with the temp root. and it removed all the chinese apps that where in the root of the phone and that the time and everything else is ok now.
I cant place the link to the back-up since i got less then 10 posts. I can private message it to someone who can post the link to here.

First hi all, and thx for opening my Thread . I came to this forum becouse i cant find an app, that i need for the work..
Here is what im doing. There is an orphans children's village at my work place. I keep track of their health also, i drive them to hospitals, doctors, tests, teraphys and etc...
What i need is an app, for a tablet (i ill buy a tablet with android), in that app i need to have acces to days a week and so on. I need to keep track of what im doing there, also at what time did i go, where did i go, and i need to imput data at the current location if im at a dentist, i need to write that im at the dentis at specific time, and after he is finish, i need to input what did he do there to the child, and so on...
Also when i go in the app there need to be the names of all the children, like a list, easy acces.. When i click a name, there needs to be some sort of organizer with inputable groups, like the tipe of doctor and notes for keeping track of the time i spend that day, and where i was, on what rutes and other stuff...
My english is bad, and i apologize for that.. I hope u get the point what i need. If someone can help me with this, or know an good app that can do all this stuff, that would be great, and i would be thankfull =).

i cant think of an app like that but try evernote
nearly total noob here.
I got a Huawei Valiant, rooted and with CWM flashed.
I have been compiling files to produce various ROMS; one ROM with only original Huawei apks, one with all the bloat stripped out, and one with all the elite cool hacking goodies.
While I am able to easily tweak my ROM on-device, I am unsure about how to take one of my back ups and make it a distributable ROM without any personal data.
I have tried to search, but to be honest this site doesnt seem to like my phone one bit.
Thanks in advance!
No responses???
I'm really wondering whats the point.
79 views. 3 are me. And no one who read is interested or helpful?
Oh well, I guess no one out there cares.
Update:
I think I can take a nandroid backup and morph it to a proper ROM release. Still trying to figure it out. IMG, tar, etc format issues.
Have one backup of non-user data that is Huawei branded 100%. Huawei apps plus AOSP apps.
Runs smooth.
Got another wannabe ROM, Tor integrated as system app. All data is proxied around the world. All ad networks disabled through Hosts. This 'ROM' also has a bit torrent client, RDP/VNC, WiFi Scanner/Diagnostics, and 4 browsers. Also has working tether and ROOT. Primarily for my job use.
The last wannabe 'ROM' I'm working on is a completely stripped ROM. Having problems getting all the Google gone.
I could desperately use knowledgable brains.
Please reply even if you can't help. It is a LOT of work, and it looks like no one else cares... and it is too damn hard to read hundreds of half-dead threads for help.

Good Stuff!!
Looking for Custom Rom for Huawei Valiant as well. Got it cheap from MetroPCS
Please keep us updated.
Well, after a hard drive crash and a few soft bricks... I think I'll start by posting individual steps for individual programs/installations...
As a brief example:
Windowed Apps on the Free
Be rooted (I used impactor by sauric)
Use Xposed framework from here.
Xhalofloatingwindows. Install it.
Here's how to set it up
Blah
Blah
And then install this app, holoshortcut. The open source one works great to make shortcuts to existing apps that run in windowed mode.
Make sure the apps are not running when you click the windowed icon, else the original full screen app loads (force stop Browser then click the new shortcut so it loads windowed)
Running the non windowed shortcut resets the app to children until you force stop it and run it from the new icon.
There's also blah blah to make a blah blah etc.
Interested in that infos?

I'm sorry I can't offer any help im just aNOOB myself and was inquiring for a custom ROM with a custom theme (pink) possibly, and came up on ur post, I have a little trouble understanding the whole process but I'm learning and even though I can't offer any assistance to you I think your work on this project is highly un-appreciated and over-looked. You deserve a response from someone knowledgeable and as dedicated ad yourself. I have a Huawei Valiant and I rooted with the same method was excited to install a custom ROM but as you noticed there isn't much to work with and unfortunately I'm not as educated in this area as you are. I hope u find some help and if so send some my way......thanks
How did you root your device? I just got my Valiant and need to root it to get all this bloat off, theme & mod it and get my audio back up to par with V4 A, which requires root.
* I just saw the answer posted above.....derp Impactor to gain root

Seeing some interest in this endeavor, I might have to jump back in!
I'll see what forgotten goodies I got kicking around and post more soon.
