help needed
i just installed the 2.2 beTA2 on my x10.
i am trying to restore the data from 2.1,but im unsuccessful.
plsss help
You'll get FC.. don't restore.
I'm having the same issue.
I don't really care about the apps i used to have installed, I care about my phone contacts and messages. Is there anyway to keep/restore them after flashing to a 2.2 ROM?

Just like tehouster said, you will have FC's and you might end up in a boot loop. If you read the thread regarding ROM installation, you will find the developers cautioning you about the effects of restoring data from eclair 2.1 to froyo 2.2
Cheers!

First of all, yes I know that you're thinking why I'm still on 1.6. Read this and you may understand.
Now, as I'm doing some test and flashing 2.1 firmwares, I don't want to loose all my 1.6 system configuration. As it is not possible to use xRecovery under 1.6, I can't do a backup. So is there another way to do a full system+data backup?
could you please possible upload all the 1.6 stock apps. I really need them as my usb port is broken and i get errors about some apps missing. I would be very grateful.

Sorry mate, but I've removed almost all the stock apps. Reflash with stock 1.6 or take a look at "Themes and Apps" section and you may find a backup.
Hello everyone I'm new here at XDA.
Last monday I bought my Xperia x10 and I came here and learned a little bit about
hackig etc.
At the moment I know how to Install root, busybox, xRecovery, JIT and Dualtouch to my 2.1 phone. Learned these things today.
I found a friendy guide on this forum that shows how to install 2.2 from Froyo.
Friendy Guide
I would really like to install it, but I have no idead how to make my phone back to 2.1 If I install 2.2 Froyo Beta2.
To revert back to 2.1 just update it with SEUS (sonyericsson official update software). I have done it
true. all you need is an official update with seus
Thank you guys
Just 1 question before updating, I installed xRecovery on 2.1 now, if update to 2.2 Froyo
xRecovery is still there?
Oh and is there a root already for 2.2 Froyo?

Make a backup with Xrecovery, so you can get back to where you were easily.
There was a post in How To 2.2 that had a bunch of steps to follow after install, it has been stable for me for days after that. Only a minor problem with Wi-Fi.

hello every one, please help me i am really frustrated with this problem
I cannot go into browser, market, dialer, and other Google apps because a force close error keeps coming, even when im doing something else on my phone, 5 errors come 1 after another about different apps, they only give me a chance to click force close, then they come back again in 10-15 minuts, or so. The phone was working fine before the update came, when i updated it to "061", it started. please help me. thanks
Best solution clean install of the rom.
if problem still persist, re-flash stock 2.1
and clean install the v 6.1 rom

Are you using data2sd? Cos i had exact same issue with gapps f.c. like every 10 minutes. Wiped and reflashed without data2sd and worked fine again. Or maybe just the wipe and reflash sorted the problem.

Hi!
Moving over from Desire to SGS2 and I'm excited
Couldnt find a Q-thread on Lite'ning-ROM (as I dont want to ask in dev-thread), so here goes:
After flashing latest 1.3, I get force close on:
com.google.process.gapps
and some more apps like Handcent
Tried wiping cache but no luck..
Any ideas?
If there's a thread I missed out on - plz feel free to delete!
Oh strange, I don't have this problem at all. My advice would be backup all user apps with Titanium Backup and wipe the whole thing.
I hope someone smarter than me can help .

Often fix that sort of problem with a factory reset .

Yep, I believe that would sort it also, but ROM-chef states that wipe etc isnt necessary, so if I can avoid a factory reset I would be happy
can i ask those who are on Lite'ning Rom 1.3, can you list all the apps it has stripped? I went to the Lite'ning Rom 1.3 dev page and its a massive 138 pages of info. So far i have memo, wifi sharing as the apps stripped from this rom. Could the OP or anyone list all the apps stripped so i know what to backup before updating from KE7?
thanks heaps

Did you do a nandroid backup before flashing? What Kernel were you using?
I had some FC's when I flashed it but that was because I had some incompatible mods (black phone dialer, black in call) that were for KE7.

Do a nandroid, see whats missing, and then go back if not satisfied/make list of apps to back up
I flashed this on mySGII and I dont think any app was removed afaik!
I didn't have Handecent installed though; so I cant confirm that!
If this is going to be the Question thread for Lite'ning then I'll re-post my issue;
I flashed Litepro's Lite'ning ROM v1.1 a week or so ago and it caused Flash content in the browser to jump and move about whilst scrolling. When still, the content played fine, but the effect when scrolling is very ugly as you can end up with a flash banner accross what you're trying to read.
I went back to stock ROM and all was back to normal.
I've put v1.2 on hoping that the Flash problem might have been noticed and fixed but it's not.
Installed 1.3 and now want to go back
Hi Guys,
I am sorry for this stupid question but I am extremely new to this and have no idea anymore what I'm doing. I was wondering if there was a way to remove this rom and go back to the original one. Is there a way I can go back to the original way I received it. I thought flashing XWKE8 with PDA will return me back back to the original stock
You can find all the orginal stock roms & kernels here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Flash them with Odin like you did for Lite'ning
I tried wiping everything, but no luck
I tried flashing XWKE7 Stock Kernel, but no luck
Only way is perhaps to unroot and start over?

Is their a specific way I have to do it? flashing XWKE8 by PDA doesn't seem to remove Lightening 1.3. I just want the original SII with CF-Root 3.7.

I used this one:
CWP UK:**cant post url yet :S**
MD5: A5A59AE6374C7FC814E8901B40F7C8AA
I just flashed it as a PDA as per the normal instruction and it seemed to work fine. All apps and data were intact.
Hope it works

Last question, I know this sounds n00bish but what is CWP? Is it stock kernel because I tried flashing that and still no luck. I heard I have to flash a bare nandroid backup. Anyone know where I can get those?

I don't know, I'm a noob too! All I know is that I was able to flash that and my GS2 was back to stock (as far as I could tell) and Lite'ning was gone. All apps and settings remained.
Sorry I can't be more help.
Hi all,
I recently upgraded to CM7 Kang RC1. Before upgrading,I have backup my stock KPD 2.3.4 ROM using CWM 4.0.0.9. I am encountering problem restoring to the stock ROM. After restoring, phone screen frozen at startup at galaxy ace page. Anybody encounter this problem? Advise appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You need to convert the system partitions back to RFS
Thanks for the quick reply. I assume I am able to do that using cwm? Can you be so kind as to guide me? Thanks!!

You need to get the Swype lib .
I managed to install beta version using swype installer. Still getting used to the whole new interface... I suspect as it is RC version, there are still some bugs here and there... but thank you so much for your help!!
More questions,
After upgrading to CM7 Kang RC1, I had problem with Lock menu and Flip4Silence.
Basically they are not working, Flip4silence is version 1.6 while lock menu is version 1.1.3. Since you are using the same firmware as well, I was wondering if u have alternative apps recommendation for this? Thanks.
I've found out that lock menu is redundant as CM7 has its own gesture controlled launcher. However, I'm not sure on flip4silence. Is there such a feature in CM7?

None of such a feature natively. App don't work?
I have to try more to conclude. But for apps like alarm droid, I have configured the alarm to stop when shaked. It seems like it is less responsive and takes around 3 seconds to stop the alarm after I shake...Is it ok to install link2sd in CM7?
I have the same problem with the stuck galaxy ace screen and even if i reset and wipe all these thinhgs you said in CWM 4 and then restored my backup with touchwiz and all my data it doesnt help. Still stucked on the galaxy ace screen.. ( help please..
And I also flashed cooper kang CM 7 rc1 before this happend.. I want my data back :'(
