I had flipfonts installed when I updated to stock KA6. I've unistalled all of them, yet I still can't get into my display settings. Does anyone have any ideas short of a factory reset? Thanks.
Maybe because I was actually using one of the non stock fonts, which is still the font on my phone?
The problem is that you restored some display setting after using a,FlipFont using some backup app.
You need to wipe the system! Reinstall, but don't restore any system settings. I experienced this problem before.

I recommend:
1. Unmount External SD Card
2. Format Internal SD Card
3. Factory Reset
My phone was running like ass until I did that. Now it's find and everythign works.
I would have preferred it if the update did that to begin with, especially with it changing mountpoints and leaving a ton of extra folders/files I don't need takign up space on my internal SD Card.
Thanks guys ill have to try the factory reset

I have blackhole 1.0 on my vibrant and I want to flash nero v5. My problem is when I try to flash it from my sd it says not found. I believe I have disabled the lag fix it doesnt even show up on my clockwork recovery menu anymore. Also when I try to open the devsforandroid rom list it says error while trying to recieve rom list. I do have rom manager premium with superuser on and in advanced mode. Please help as I need to get rid of blackhole because navigation is important to me. Thanks in advance

You should probably Odin back to stock before flashing another ROM, regardless of which one.
Double check that you're saving the rom to your internal sd and NOT your external.

hi
i recently flashed the CyanogenMod 7 beta3 found here
I have an issue with my apps, prob. due to the a2sd stuff. i can't see most of my app's widgets, including the messaging widget. maximum annoyance!! when i put other apps such as facebook in the phone memory, the widget appears in the selection screen, but the messaging app was and is in the phone memory all the time..
HELP WILL BE EXTREMELY APPRETIATED
also, i'm planning to make a vid about flashing the cyanogenmod rom to a phone. who's with me!
i'm having problems with darktremor's a2sd too, it seems to be that it's unable to mount/recognize /sd-ext... i've just backed up with TB, re-partitioned and wiped everything, let's see if a fresh flash enables CM 7 b3/a2sd to recognize /sd-ext -.-"
it keeps gettin stuck at the cyanogenmod animation... it's getting me mad!
there was no way for me to get dt's a2sd working on cm7b3... -.-"

Look at the CM7 thread, in the first post is the solution to your problem, you just need to flash a .zip before flashing CM7..

I think it is native to the system, at least you are able to move apps..
Correct me if i'm wrong
Am I the only one that the choise of the keybord is not stored between reboots?? can someone test please?
(using smartkeyboard pro)
Moved the app to phone memory and worked fine, my bad!
Well, these actions may help you guys "am not sure":
-When installing a widget in CM7, never move it to SD card, it will be only recognized when it's located at phone memory.
-When installing CM7 itself, don't partition your SDcard, just format it using PC or any utility and install CM7 using recovery "so it won't stuck".
-if the stuck thing still happening, download from CM7 topic a Wiper file which will wipe your system setting if wiping is not working on your O1.

I did the partition but flashed the Wiper file, worket fine!
Is thera any way to flash CM7beta4(when it's released) and keep all the apps and configs?
EDIT: Sorry, wrong thread.
When i connect the phone to USB, the widget crash, and also the apps i have to move it to SD because they installing in the phone memory. Dont recognize the Partition.
Sorry for my English.
question
my messaging app (stock) is in my memory, and i can access it, but i cannot access the messaging widget. CAN ANYONE HELP?
I'm not that noob, I can follow instructions, I erased /system using adb, and flashed cm7 many times, partitioning (needs to be done to get darktremor's a2sd working) and flashing a2sd every time, it's just that this time just didn't work... I flashed again doing a "fresh install" and got cm7 to load, but there's no way to get a2sd working... Using "native" cm7's a2sd doesn't just move apps to fat32 partition?

If you already have cm7 on the device, flashing the rom's zip file from recovery should be enough ;-)

My software on my droid x2 isn't doing good. From what I have seen something will happen in the background that causes all my system apps to restart, only they never finish restarting which begins to devour my memory and eventually leads to my phone freezing up. Also the ringtones like to change randomly to default (alarms set in third party apps too).
I was hoping rooting and getting rid of bloatware would solve this problem but it is still persisting. I thought I could restore backed up system apps with Titanium Backup so I was removing the apps. I'll leave them "restoring" for 45 minutes with no luck (I tried both just restoring the app and restoring both apps and data). So apparently it doesn't work like that.
My question is if I do a factory reset with my phone in its current condition, will I have an issue?
If u diddnt freeze the apps then you might. Did u back them up before u removed them?

Yes I backed up all of them, but when I go to restore them it doesn't work. It just keeps restoring them eternally. I waited 45 minutes for app only restore and it wasn't done.
If I am just clearing data in the process of a factory reset, can I maybe wipe data manually or with a tool that wipes data?
Anyone know the answer to this? I tried installing from the apk pack of services, but not all of them would install. My phone really needs a factory reset, I'm getting a lot of software related errors.
Could I maybe manually wipe certain apps? If anyone happens to know which built in apps are okay to wipe I would like to know.

Yes you can wipe an apps data. Go to applications in the settings menu and then click on the app you want to clear and select clear data.

Not all the apps in system can be installed via tapping on them. They need to be manually moved to system/app then change permissions. You can copy all over using root explorer

Nothing. You will just have a rooted out of the box fresh condition phone.

All you need to do is swap internal and external mount points. My Eclipse ROM has this built in. There is an init.d script that is floating around here that will do it as well.

Hello I'm new in this.
I just installed a custom rom CM9 nightly. When a new version or revision of that MOD come out, what is the procedure to update without loosing all my apps and settings?
Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Download the new nightly, put it on your external or internal SD card, boot into CWRecovery, install zip from SD card, either choose zip from sdcard or choose zip from internal SD card, navigate to the folder where you have the new nightly, choose the file, yes to install it, let it install, reboot the phone. Done. Some people like to clear cache & Dalvik but this isn't an absolute necessity.
Or get Titanium Backup! You'll be able to restore all apps and setting if something went wrong during the update.
During CM9 update /data is safe.
Thank you Guys. I'll practice it.
My backup pro ia also an good backup app for backing up all apps. data,sms, contacts etc..
also check dis out..

Just do not restore the system data (essentially anything with red writing)

Data Connect bug?
I have the latest cm9 nightly rom running on my original sensation, and I am having an issue with my data connection where most apps - besides browsers - cannot connect to the internet via my data connection. Is this a known error?
This has happened with a different cm9 rom too so it may be an issue unrelated to the rom. Prior to that I was running stock and was having no issues.
If this issue is unknown I will post more details/specs on my phone.
Thanks
Edit: I see this is in the SG2 Thread. I would delete, but can't find the delete button. My apologies.
I've Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and i wanted to erase some stuff I had. My phone was rooted and have a rom. But i've accidently erased my setting from my Titanium back up... All the sudden my setting disappeared and if i drag the thing down from the top of my phone and press the setting on top right coner, then my phone says "Unfortunately, system UI have stopped." I've gotten very frustrated idk why but i've hardcore reset my phone...Stupid me... My root is gone, my titanium backup is all gone now i can't even go to my setting... I've tried to plug it to my computer but i couldn't get to my setting to press mass storage check option, or even developer's option... Only way i can fix it is throughout downloading an app or something...
Here's a solution that I havn't tried which is downloading a odin app to root my phone without my pc and after rooting it, downloading the titanium backup and if any of you guys have any backups that is available for me to copy and restore your setting to my phone, then it might work... idk i'm very stupid so i don't know if that would work... PLEASE HELP ME!!!
Or is there a way to get another motherboard to my phone or like other parts and just replace to be like an new phone...? I don't want to spend over a $100 i'm very poor...

You said you're on a ROM? So just reflash the ROM abs problem solved. Of not just download superuser from play, root doesn't get erased with a factory reset just the app. As a final solution just Odin to stock and restart from scratch

No but thing is that i can't reflash my ROM because it's not rooted. Also if i wanted to get rooted and let say i use something like Z4root or framaroot, i can't install those apps into my phone because I can't change the developer's option from my setting... When i try to do with my computer, it won't recognize because I can't even go into the mass storage or pictures import or other settings... Is there any ways to download apps with just moving the folders?
