Hey, I have gingerbreak'd, gladenabled, and used titanium backup to freeze most if not all motoblur services as well as at&t services.
I think I'm ready to install gingerblur/greyblur. Would I have to unfreeze these or can I go ahead and just follow the tutorial to install these roms.
Thanks!

currently im using DJ05 and have the super red evolution theme from nijitsu.
I've been having a few issues lately, one being that swype no longer works and for the life of me i can't get the new beta installed. I've tried wiping the old swype data with tibu and then deleted it, and used root explorer to remove any traces of SWYPE left that were found, i do a reboot and i still can't install the swype beta. it just goes to install and says DID NOT INSTALL.
i figured i might as well upgrade to EB01 now and hopefully the issue will be resolved after upgrading.
questions are:
i have the green version of CWM, do i NEED the red version to upgrade? if so, where can i find a working link for that version? i've tried searching all over this board and they all point back to the link that is down.
2) do i HAVE to do a complete battery wipe? i have tons of apps and stuff i want to keep. Can i use tibu to completely back those up, so after i wipe clean and install the new rom, i can just restore those apps and keep all the settings and saved games?
Sorry, these are pretty noobish questions. Thanks for all the help!
Some help
I'm still kinda new to the process, but...
Here's Adrenylyne's CWM Red. Dunno if you need it to flash EB01

As far as the back-up goes you should be able to run a Nandroid back-up from Recovery boot. That combined with an app back-up with your app-manager should cover everything.
Higher-ups plz correct nething I got wrong...kthnxbai
okay, will i need the pro version of titanium backup? or will the free version work?
i just want to make sure all my contacts are backed up, my text messages, and all my apps i downloaded and paid for.. i have the free version of titanium backup, and i hit BACKUP on all of those. I just want to make sure once i wipe everything and install fresh, i can download titanium backup and just restore them with the free version
Run backup assistant for contacts, or if you have them saved via google... not sure about the titanium thing, never used it. Easiest way to get to eb01 is the odin all in one package, does all the wiping for you and there are several versions to choose from. Check development section on droidforums

I did a mild search and didn't find anything, so sorry if this is a repost.
I want to try new roms, but don't want to go through the headache of redownloading all the apps that I have, is there an easy way to back up my existing apps so I can flash a new rom and just "reload" my old apps?
Does Titanium backup do this? (i've never really used it)
Yes. Use titanium. But use it only to restore apps, never system settings

You can also use MyBackup Root (for both apps, data). The interface is very simplistic and straight to the point, if you don't want all the stuff packed into Titanium.
No dumb questions. Most roms will just auto restore your apps when you sign in with your gmail acct, but some do have the feature disabled so then I would recommend titanium backup. If your new to the root game I would definitely recommend the paid versions of root explorer, titanium backup, and ROM manager at the very least. With the paid version of titanium you can also run the market doctor to restore the market links for your apps if for some reason they do not show up I'm the market after you restore them. Good luck!
Awesome, thanks guys! I appreciate it.
How to remove the samsung's app, except from Kies air?
Use Titanium Backup to either freeze the app you want or unistall it
First yu'll have to root your device. Then you can either flash a custom ROM that has uninstalled samsung bloatware or purchase titanium backup pro from the market, you'll be able to freeze or uninstall any app you want. You just have to be careful with deleting system apps since they can be important for your phone to work properly.

EDIT: here is a list of what to unistall and what to keep

I would suggest you just freeze the app instead of uninstalling it. You will never know when you might need it one day!
What would you guys recommend for installing a new ROM? Right now I'm on stock, rooted. But I want to installed CyanogenMod 7. I'm not new to installing ROM's, but this is my first Android phone. The process is obviously different.
Which is better; Titanium Backup, or MyBackup Pro?
I really don't want to go through the process of setting up my contacts and application settings, home screen, etc.. I'm using GO Launcher EX, do either of the aforementioned backup the settings for applications like this? My goal is to be able to install the new ROM and restore as much data as possible.
I am using Ultimate backup I like the interface much better then titanium backup.
Anyways I freezed some apps to test then I unfreeze, I mean it says that its worked It definatley does freeze them thats forsure. But the problem is when i go to unfreeze them it says its unfrozen but the app does not appear in the app drawer again and when I go to ultimate backup and try launch from there it says it cannot be launched so then I restart my phone and i go back into ultimate launcher and it shows the apps as being frozen again what the hell!!
can I get some help here please
Never used that never seen any users reporting it on XDA .
Suggest contact the developer .

When I installed (Root uninstaler) I had the same problem when freezing and unfreezing, They are all the same concept as titanium backup.
something has to be wrong with my phone setup
the frozen apps are the same format as all the other backup apps. Titanium, root uninstaller, ultimate backup.
I have just installed Titanium and it picks up the apps as being frozen and gives me the option to defrost and when I click it , it says its been defrosted ad is ready to use. But then I go to view it again and it still shows as frozen arghhH!!!
ok so i found a fix apparently there is something coded into the firmware that doesnt allow unfreezing but an app called app quarantine patches something and then asks to reboot , after reboot your apps are restored.
run the app and all frozen apps appear in quarantine list you can unfreeze them there then reboot
is there a permanent fix so that u dont need app quarantine because this process has to be repeated each time you try to unfreeze
I haven't been able to defrost with Titanium or Root Installer on the S3 at all, no idea why, I'm afraid. As far as I know the only way to restore is a wipe.
read my last post fully, you will see the fix
Good find, thanks!
