I have never used evil fascination rom myself but I use titanium backup...get it from the market..you can use that app to backup all your apps and also freeze any apps or bloatware you don't want to have running.
The rom you are running shouldn't matter, you have to be rooted to use titanium backup, and most roms lately do the rooting for you. Like I said earlier I've never used evil fascination but I would guess if youre running that rom your phone is rooted. I've flashed, bricked, recovered, my fascinate and have just plain read a lot on here. I've never heard mention of, or had to use nand unlock..not to sure what that is but titanium backup should do what you want.

[?] Miui vs. touchwiz

I'm currently using simply honey 4.0 rc3 and I've always heard good things about miui but it sounds very difficult to install. I have gb boot loaders so I'm not sure how to install it since they're aosp. Another thing is I've heard miui had inferior battery life to touchwiz roms so can anyone share any advice?

If u flash with gb bootloaders the external sd wont mount no big deal but I quickly grew accustomed to MIUI because its so customizable and I hated touchwiz and as for battery I flashed the glitch kernel and undervolted and I got about 12 hrs with moderate use and my battery was at 61% but I guess battery varys from person to person
Sounds good which miui and how do I backup my efs

you can always just flash the froyo bootloader if you switch to miui and you won;t have the external sd problem

Yeah but the complex and tedious work to test a rom just seems a little out there so I wanted to know is miui really worth the big amount of risks I'm happy with my current rom but I've heard good things about miui

Tedious? all you do is put it on the root of your int sd card and flash it...then odin back to stock if you want to go back to Touchwiz based roms.

btw please make a backup in clockwork recovery so you can restore it if you run into problems and this way you can restore your phone back to simply honey anytime your rooted .... it only takes 5mins and it saved me last night when I flashed trigger redux and failed the first time .... you can restore a backup using and version of cwm so pls do

Thanks for the advice although I'm not a noob I've been a root user since they released cupcake on the g1 I just needed to clarify a few things before I tested miui now to figure out why my odin displays mandarin maybe because the boot loaders are chinese?

Someone please help just point me in the right direction it would b greatly appreciate

if you have unlocked BL you should be able to flash any rom. as long as the rom image contains all contents you should be able to just flash it.
to go to stock 2.3.4 use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163342&page=1
it wont update your BL though - if you want to do that I think you'd have to sbf a pudding, but I'm not sure.
So the alien rom and cherry one can b flashed to my phone even thou im running on 4.1.26
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
yeah both of those should work. make sure to backup first.
Wat should I use to backup tb?is it gonna wipe my phone. I used tb to backup b4 and wen I unlocked it wiped my phone wasn't surehow to restore cause tv was gone as well

Use a custom recovery to run a nandroid backup. I like CWM and you can flash it using rom manager. Im still running stock rom because I don't think the custom roms are good enough but you have to decide what you prefer. Try them both.
Jim, your best bet would be to flash CWM recovery by following these instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138541
Once you've done that you can flash to any rom you choose. The recovery installed by ROM manager, from my understanding, isn't a FULL recovery suite.
I personally like Nav's work on the cherry series.
One other thing you might want to keep in mind with most of these new rom's is what radio you're using AND whether or not you have an international phone.
There is a good post about it here:

I've been trying to keep up on all these developments too and it can be difficult.... Good luck and anymore questions, don't hesitate to ask.

when you've backed up with TB, just re-install TB and all your stuff should still be there to restore. it stores it on the SD card.

U can root ur phone and not have to flash a Rom. I rooted and used tb to remove a bunch of apps so it's kinda like I'm running a custom Rom lol

I think he means you just flash a stock rooted image not one with things trimmed or deodexed.

Flashing back cm7 from cm10. Is it safe?

So I've been reading through the forums in search of this answer but I've been unable to find a definite one. I want to try epinters cm10 but if I don't like it, is it safe to flash back neutrinos cm7 using CWM recovery? Will I brick my phone by doing this?
Thanks!
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app
The answer to your question is yes. But the best way to return is by restoring the nandroid backup you will create before trying CM10 (or any other ROM). No brick fears unless you try to flash an sbf (which you should never do).

Thank you so much for the quick response.
Before I flashed cm7, I made a back up of my stock. Same applies if I wanted to flash back to stock using the nandroid backup, correct? Sorry, I just want to clarify completely before doing anything.
Thanks again!

You only have to backup your current rom if you think you might want to go back.
Always backup before installing new roms, or making any major changes, or even when you have your current rom set up perfectly. Using rom manager makes it easier because you can name them whatever you want. You can never have too many backups!

Awesome man. Thanks for all the advice. Downloaded rom manager and renamed all my backups with their proper tags.
Going to give Epinters CM10 a go.

+1 This
For all the lazy kids out there, always create a Nandroid before going to any new ROM.
It's only one extra step, and it beats flashing with a SBF and "hoping" for the best...

Bloatware to stock

I am sorry for what will seem like a dumb question, but I recently rooted and used the bloatware remover. I would like to put the bloat back on the DNA but I am not sure how to do that. I downloaded the undo file and placed that on the phone and installed it via recovery but the files did not reload. Could someone help me to figure this out?
Thanks in advance,
Matt
Reinstalling the Rom should work.

Should I reinstal the stock rom and if so, will I lose root?

Just install whatever ROM you are currently running. You shouldn't have to wipe or anything, just flash it and your bloat should be back =)
Just make sure you flash a rooted rom (most are rooted except for bone stock verizon roms and RUU's)
