Google will back up everything
1. Paid for applications ( I had a G1 2 years ago and after 2 years of not having an android phone, my aps from my G1 days were still around)
if your going to backup files, use the free version of Titanium Backup, I dont think you need root access to backup those files, if that's all your doing, but if TB doesnt work there are literally hundreds of backup applications
Also go to contacts, and export all of your contacts onto your sdcard, it would be a .vcf file that you pull from your sdcard once you mount it to your computer
I think you should be much more careful - the data needs a much more thorough wipe. Factory reset is definitely not enough.

flashing original firmware is a pain in the ass, alot of extra steps and crap you have to download, it would be nice if they just made a flashable zip for the orginal firmware, but they dont anyways yeah that's about it bud, your ready to sell it
All right, thank you guys

Because it was a ****ty NOKIA phone.
about sd card, you could buy another card to be extra secure heh.
there are softwares out there where you can really erase your files so that they will be "unrecoverable". you might try it.

I still have a good amount of storage. Is there a specific folder that has a specific amount allocated to it, and I have filled it?
On a side note... Holy crap, the DPI of my phone is insane.
Edit 1: ... I just realized that the alert covers the storage usage... the middle one does to the edge of the alert.
37 reads, and nobody knows? I must have a unique problem
As far as space goes, what does it say under Settings/Applications/Manage Applications?
Does it differ from what you see in TB at all?
No difference. could it be a problem with the market? I wonder if there's a way to dump application process info. Is that what logcat does?
Nobody? Wow... Its getting extremely irritating now. I literally can't download any applications. I kinds want this fixed because I just bought titanium backup pro, and I can't download the new normal titanium backup.

Try and clear Dalvik Cache in recovery.
IF that works (or any other method works), get CacheMate and let it clear all unneeded caches.
If you download an .apk file from a website and put it on your SD card, can you install it? (aka, is it ONLY market that is failing?)
(If you can install .apk from SD card, try and get CacheMate this way and let it run, might help)
Yes it's only the market. I've updated Pokemon online from the downloaded apk.
Are there any apps that will clear the cache as needed without the recovery? Hmm... That might be a dumb question being that market has been failing. I guess there appropriate question is; are there any apps available on the internet that clear the cache add needed?
Also, do you mean cwm for recovery?

I used can recovery to wore there Davlic cache, but it did not work. I might have an idea though. I downloaded an OTA update, but I didn't apply it. Could this be the reason? I was able to download stuff before, but not after the OTA was downloaded.

I backed up my current stock rom and flashed cm9 to taste it. That went perfectly.
Then after restoring, I noticed certain apps are broken(?).
Example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any advice to reduce this?
If you guys want to know which CWM versions I used then I am not exactly sure about that.
While backing up from stock rom CWM v5.0.+ and restoring from cm9 , CWM v5.5+
How did you backup and restore exactly? Out of CWM or did you do a nandroid backup/restore?
Nevertheless I recommend using titanium backup... It backups and restores also the data (for example wireless settings and other app & system settings)
Open TB, go settings/restore/restore from internal sd card

I did a NANDroid backup. > went into recovery mode and backup.
then back into recovery from cm9 and restore.
TB just for apps and settings. What if the you're not satified with the rom? Hence Nandroid.

I did not back up any apps from TB. Just nandroid.
any more suggestions? Did u guys experience something like this?
I always have an app or two that corrupts itself like that during Nandroid restore. But I also keep TB backups of my apps and restore the corrupted apps that way.

That, I think, is good to hear. Some guy on irc said my phone memory might be corrupted. So it's not just my phone.
I guess I should also backup my apps separately.
One more question, I tried backing up an app in tb from gingerbread and while restoring in cm9, it froze. I had to force stop it, but the app did not restore. How to deal with this?

Going from GB to ICS I believe you should be restoring only the app itself, not the data. If the app still won't restore it is probably not compatible with ICS.

Have you flashed a Rom to your phone? Might try wiping cache and datA from settings/ mAnage apps.
Mine did this after flashing ics. It cleared up after i got a good flash to take. First 3 flashes did not take. Had to factory reset within phone before doing the normal steps to flash.

You have a backup in titanium? Or your nand? Restore it from an earlier point, might be no need to spend the xx account of time re flashing, reloading, re adjusting that goes with full wipes

wow, i didn't even realize that color option is missing till this. errrr, do not have a tibu back up or nandroid. how else i can get it back? last i flashed was tpc v2 rom and i am not sure it had complete s-memo in first place. bummer.
will try to grab it from some stock rom and push it back.
Can anyone share their color working s-memo so I can try push it to system? Thanks in advance.
You're making it sound like the colors don't exist... Its just the preview windows that are messed up... You can click on each box and the color will change

You make it sounds like it is no big deal. It is a big frickin deal not seeing the color preview you dufus.
I myself experience it, very frustrating since in the real world when you want to jot stuff down, you dont want to be sliding your pen around to find the color. My fix, Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe davlik then flash your rom.after that don't wipe cache again

yes the thing that you say about skeletons is correct it has happened with me also once but i fixed by reflashing the rom btw wipe everything and even format everything it should work
i used miracle v3 for 2 weeks without any lags and no problem the problem you are mentioning happened with me when sometimes i rebooted and my phone went into safe mode and some of the apps werent showing but when i try to install them it tell that you are replacing an already existing app this was the first time and 2nd time when i installed phoenix launcher. it has to be a system app so i think it malfunctioned .Id just say reflsh the rom itll fix it or try using any other rom
agree,I reflash miracle v3 and restart twice,no more problem
Reflash would solve it but it's too much hassle
The partition shows in the image but I can't open a single app2sd app like darktremor and s2e they both force close
Pls help me figure that out
Everything works fine now multiple reboots and wipe cache solved it but not the partition problem
Any idea with that?
What should I do to make it work again

I want to know so that I may not do it again in the future

Iv'e moved from Note to SGSIII
Backed up all user+data apps on Note,
Copied TB Folder to SGSIII Internal SD Card,
Ran TB (Pro, Purchased) and restored all user apps+data.
60% of the apps didn't restore, TB didn't complain, and if I click them in TB, i have "Uninstall" enabled, but no other keys active.
Something is messed up.
Edit:
Thanks to Zabalba,
the backups might be corrupted. Have you tried downloading one of the missing apps through the market and restoring Data only?

It might be hanging on a specific app. Try restoring one by one and see if you can identify if one particular app is causing the app to hang.

It's not hanging. The progress bar goes all the way to 100%
And I get a notification that Titanium Finished restoring apps.
Also, Tried one by one, no go.
Those that restored normally on the batch restore are already there, those that didn't won't restore one by one either.
the backups might be corrupted. Have you tried downloading one of the missing apps through the market and restoring Data only?
I had to restore in smaller batches (30 odd apps at a time) to avoid it hanging on me.
