[Q] Using TB with 2.3.x - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any 2.3.x roms that will not start FCing like its their job after restoring thru TB? I've been using redux and just put a hole in my wall. I refuse to lose my apps and data.

I've had zero problem restoring my apps on 2.3, just don't restore any system data/apps and you should be fine.

Every single time I wait almost a full battery cycle to let everything settle in, then I only restore the crossed out apps that are strictly not system. Now I can't use my browser for more than 1 min. Facebook ****s out as soon as data starts pushing thru my phone. Xda seems fine. But still, the same damn problems. I have an older PM from Roman himself with his step by step method that I use everytime I flash anything cm7 based and this continues to happen. I'm about to blame it on my phones hardware and break this piece of **** in 2.

i was thinking you were going to link to some ODIN thread but LOL
thanks for the laugh haven't had a good one in a while hahaah

DONT RESTORE DATA! I DONT CARE IF IT IS NOT A SYSTEM APP! DO NOT RESTORE DATA!
TRY RESTORING APP ONLY. I BET MY 2 CENTS, NO FC's.
-Do a data/factory reset in recovery
-reboot
-RESTORE APPS ONLY

Lol. I literally would install 5 apps + data with 1 min intervals between each, then reboot and repeat. Took forever but everything is working A.O.K. I skipped swype though. I'm afraid of that *****. Yea I'm not clicking ur link there buddy, I know better. Never feed a troll.

I just went from System V to Trigger Redux (build 17). TB was not able to restore my WIFI access points or my bluetooth connections. I still have not figured out why.

BC they are linked to froyo and the "data" is not gingerbread compatable.

Problem with phone.... help

Ok heres whats happening....
first of all, my phone is rooted and i have the latest super clean and kernal.... this has been happening on a variety of kernals and roms tho..
Randomly, out of nowhere, my phone reboots. (maybe this is normal, the kernal is crashing?)
the problem is that once it comes back, i seem to be missing some system applications like my contacts app (whenever i click on contacts in the phone, it crashes, and i dont have a contacts app to click)
and sometimes, my phone Settings app.... if u try to click menu on the home screen and click settings, nothing happens..... and i cant place widgets..
I have to reodin the phone completely and start from scratch....
This happens like once every couple weeks or so....
any ideas?
Try flashing it again w/ data/cache/dalvik wipe

It sounds like some of the apps may be incompatiable with the verison you're using. I had a somewhat similar problem when first getting into roms. It may be worth going back to stock and then reflashing to the latest SC.
Not sure.. If it was just a compatibility problem I think it would not work right away... The problem I'm having is random after a spontaneous reboot

Try fixing it by flashing stock rom then re root > rom install > cwm

1. Yes swype works but you have to delete your current version of swype and install the new swype beta...do this from swype's website, sorry don't have the link handy, but it is an improvement from the previous version that comes with our phone
2.you can restore apps with TiBu but do not restore system apps, and when you do a batch restore, make sure you select apps only not data...not doing that well get you fc.city!
3.I just downloaded all three and start with hl and work my way down to ll...not sure of a way to see the kernel leakage, all I can ever find is the version name, never if its hl,ml,or ll?? So I start with high and work down so its easy for me to remember

I restored "missing apps + data" but it still didn't restore everything. I had to go through manually and restore the apps I was missing. I don't even know if I restored them all now.
But anywho I tried installing my transparent themed google search bar but it just FC'd on me. So i tried reflashing gapps but now I can't re-install it. From the market it force closes too.

From all of your force close issues it sounds like you missed wiping something when you made the switch to cm7...honestly I would take the time now and odin back to stock and reinstall it shouldn't take more then 15 mins or so since you already should have all the files you need.

Thats why I think you should re flash...I've never had to install google search it's just there when I flash the rom, I always flash the gapps.zip after the rom and never actually checked to see if it was on my phone prior to flashing the gapps...did you do that?? If you did I'd try flashing the gapps.zip again

I batch restored. Once google apps was done installing everything market started restoring a bunch of apps (not all). After that was done I went to titanium and installed
Missing apps + data.
One key difference is that I ticked the option in settings for support for moving data between incompatible roms.
I was having some issues though. Turns out when I upgraded from the old to recent version of glitch kernel I unknowingly put low leak over high leak and with out the removal script. It was almost perfect except every now and then a program would crash.
I wiped data, dalvik and cache. Reinstalled the rom. Let it boot. Installed glitch. Let it boot. Installed google apps and went from there. haven't under volted but that's more about which version of the kernel I have and the battery and speed are so goods already, I'm not worried about it.
I also went through my app list and manually restored data for previously installed apps that I needed. Also eliminates problems with data you don't even need. Then sms restore to restore sms and call log.
The in call sound is still a little quiet though. Luckily my friends, colleagues and I don't use voice calls.
Only a 4 chan app force closes now but it's crappy so that's not surprising.
I hope that helps someone.

I had that. Reboot into recovery. Sounds like you need to do that through adb now. Wipe cache and dalvik. Fix permissions and reboot. Worked for me when that happened. I almost thought I couldn't reboot but I was patient and eventually thw fc tapered off to just google framework and I was able to get the power menu.

Yeah I did that. But now it's back again. It seemed to have only momentarily fixed it. I wiped again and more force closes. I'm beginning to think it has something to do with titanium backup!

I've been on fence about trying CM7. I run it on my Nook Color and like alot. But I depend on my phone for work and I'm worried about all issues I read people are having, particularly call volume. I can't afford to annoy a client with phone issues in this economy!
What is consensus - is this a dependable daily driver?

UnNamed to CM7 (just want to make sure I'm good to go)

I'm just getting the hang of flashing ROMs and want to try CM7.
I'm on UnNamed now so I'm assuming all I have to do is:
1. go into CWM and complete a backup (done today)
2. go into CWM and do a wipe/factory reset
3. flash the CM7 and google apps from CWM
4. restore from the backup to get all my apps/settings back
Thanks for the support.
Of you do APPS AND DATA only without touching thru system data then yes.

Not sure what you mean by "apps and data" only. I just clicked backup in CWM and figured this back up everything. Are the steps I listed above incorrect?
When you select 'backup' in CWM it creates an entire copy of your system- your ROM, kernel,
Modem, and your Apps and settings. You got the right idea of how to go from ROM to ROM but if you hit restore in recovery you'll just end up flashing back to CM7. nyamoV2 was referring to titanium backup which is used for backing up Apps and settings. I don't use it but from what I gather you never want to restore system data with it. But can be used to back up Apps. Although upon signing into Google market your Apps start downloading again anyway. Its good to make backups in recovery in case something goes wrong flashing a new ROM or theme or whatever.

Anyway, that's odd. I'm usually running CM7 as my daily driver and never had any data speed issues. Some users have changed their APN's and that seems to help. I did at one point but reverted back. Oh well

I always do a backup with nandroid if I'm looking to save the rom I'm currently running. Then after that I do a wipe/factory reset then also a format /system. Then install the new rom. Always has worked perfectly.
CM7
is this rom better then unnamed of MiUI?

[Q] Grr, had to restore to factory, why?

After using an app called TS 2 which encrypts photos and videos, my Allstream began bootlooping. It would get to the Sense touchscreen, and as soon as i pulled the ring up, boot loop began. What was the possible cause of this ?
Also, I've been spending the last2 hours getting my tablet back to normal.thankfully, all my music and data is backed up online w google or Picasa or etc.
Related question:
Though, like my synergy Rom on EVO, is there a way to enable the jetstream to automatically Download all the apps again when a flash or restore occurs? Is root needed for that?
If you checked Google to backup your apps, your apps should reinstall minus the data.

i never had bootloops myself, so i cant quite help. sorrys.
I'm unsure. I was on WiFi when it happened. I don't know of that makes a difference. Also, I had screen rotation off, so I was unable to rotate to check.
Could this glitch be fixed with root?

Also, my jetstream does not bootloop on its own. It only happens once I tell the device to reboot.

Back up properly

Little ashamed to admit it hut I have never actually backed up any phone I have owned. Atrix, vivid, s2 but I want to do right by this phone and downloaded titu. And online nandroid. From this point on I am a little lost as to how to back up my files. I am rooted but still haven't unlocked the bootloader the reason is I want to install the camera mod and have a backup incase anything goes wrong. When I downloaded online nandroid I could not get it to update and would not let me back up my phone do I need to be unlocked as well? Also is this any different from using titanium backup and or which one is better than the other

Nandroid backs up your current ROM configuration. So, however you have it set up, all apps, settings, etc, it remembers and will restore you to that same "image". TiBu is more for backing up and restoring apps, en masse. It also allows you to restore text messages, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings and a few other things. It gives you the ability to uninstall system apps with root or freeze them if you choose which its often safer until you figure out whether or not remove a system app will negatively affect stability. Hope this helps.
