[Q] How to backup the backup app? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm fine with MyBackup Root. The only thing that I don't like is, that I always have to redownload MBR first from the market to restore the backup. Since I flash ROMs very regularly it is quite annoying.
Is there a way, how to backup also the MyBackup Root-App?

try copying and saving ur MBR in ur sd ..then once u flash a new one then again copy it into system folder...
hope it works
Thank me if it helped ...

OK. Found it myself. In data/app all APKs from market are stored. Copy/Paste with i.e. root exporer does the rest.

Request for some apps file

Hi guys,
I have recently make a wrong decision with my Gs2. I tried to use Titanium backup to change All Sharing and Social Hub as a User Application. And that result in these apps disappear from my phone. I tired to put the dlna.apk and social-hub.apk back to the "system/app" while nth new come back after a reboot. I think that's because i miss the odex file related to the apps. As I am using Offical Hong Kong Rom KG2, would somebody like to help me by uploading those files [dlna, social hub apk&odex]
Thanks

Thx for your help.
I have tried this list and put those apk in to system/app, yet the program have not come back even after a reboot.....
I use Root Explorer for installing .apk files.
Can you not download Social Hub and DNLA via Samsung Apps?

I got those APKs from the list you have posted.
And install them by using root explorer
My way to install is to move from sdcard to "/system/app"
I even changed the permission of the apks but still they don come back
thanks!

I never move them before installing - just put them on internal SD and install from there. Try it?

yeah i have tried it and it keeps reproting Application not installed
Try applications>manage applications>clear cache and maybe clear data for those apps if they are there.
Otherwise I'm out of ideas...

Good luck. Don't suppose you've got a full backup via CWM or you'd have reflashed it, right?

Attached are both apps' apk & odex files.

I don't think you can install system files with root explorer, you need to flash it through recovery. I was having the same problem and flashing worked for me.

You just push them to the /system/app/ folder and reboot - that's all a recovery zip would do.
Thx Guys!!!!
My finally method was reflash the official rom..... that nearlly kill me as i have to reorder the application icon which take me an hour to finish that....
I don know how to use the recovery method but hope this post would help others who face the same problems.
Btw is there any apps to backup the order of icon in Application page? Rearranging them again is damn horrible if u got tons of apps......

Enter CWM, select "Backup and restore", then "Backup". The backup will be saved on the SD, in \clockworkmod\backup\bla_bla_bla.
Whenever you want your ROM back, just enter CWM and select "Backup and restore", then "Restore. Select "bla_bla_bla" and you'll have your ROM.
EDIT
Oh, so you want to port your ROM to a new phone! Well, you didn't say that
I think you can, as long as it's the same model... but wait for someone else to confirm that

Never happened to me. But the procedure is just the right one, so you'll have to wait for someone else's help.
Hm. You could make a nandroid, then extract that nandroid with yaffey (search xda).
Then you could port it and pack it.

Is not an "error", just skips the backup of sd-ext partition because you dont have one.

This is the process. Just share the bla_bla_bla folder. If it fails, you can't.

i have backed up my rom but it is too big!! [580mb] even if i upload then no one gone download it for sure!!
Well... you know, this is how it works.
Anyway, if you want, you can use 7zip or winrar to compress it and also split it in multiple files.

Want to do a major SDcard clean up

I want to get rid off as many folders and files that I can, from the Internal SDcard, without damaging my device.
How can I know which folders and files can I delete? Would it help if I screen shot my SDcard folders and files and upload the photos here?
Thanks
Just format via CWM...

I know but I've open it in the wrong fourm.
I don't want to delete every thing! I just want to the delete all the junk and unnecessary folders... This way I said that I can upload screenshots of my SDcard so you could tell me which ones I can get rid off.
Make backup of your personal data, backup of apps data that you are using in titanium backup for example (and copy it to pc...). format your card. Restore it. Should be good, huh?

need help in cwm nandroid backup

hey guys i am new to this forum
i recently rooted my android device with clockwork mod 5.0.2.8 installed
i flashed a new rom and before flashing i made a backup of the existing rom
the rom was ok and so i renamed the backup as 'stock'
i decided to go back to the original rom and thought of restoring it but it says "md5 sums not found"
so anybody have any kind of help
i am using samsung galaxxy ace plus gt-s7500
you need to rename it to what the backup was called when you created the nandroid
Just make sure that your backup is in root directory of your sd card..
Just like this
Sdcard>clockworkmod>backup>2012-09-06.11.31.38>files
If it is not like that make like that
Press thanks if i helped you

I've done this before on my motorola xoom, had to just delete the backup, kinda sucks. Since though I do recall some recoveries there is an option to not check md5 sums on restoration of the backup so that is what you want to try do. I have a feeling CWM doesn't have this feature but you can check. TWRP I think does so check if there is that recovery for your device. But then there may be compatibility issues since you made the backup with CWM. Worth a try though. Good luck

Yeah, same with when this happened to me.
You could, if feeling brave, theoretically this should work but I've never tried it. But the backups in your /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup folder are .img files you could extract them to your computer and use fastboot to flash them onto your device
will definitely try

[Q] TWRP backup files NOT shown? How to delete ?

Hi all,
I am using TWRP2.6.3.0 to backup my rom. And I did back up twice ( one morning , one in the afternoon). But when I try to copy this files into my computer, I only find one back up files here is the TWRP/Backup/00492c429690ac15 folder. From the name of file I don't think that is the file I backup today.Besides, I do two back up but there is only one here( it looks like the stcok JB rom backup I made after unlcok my phone).
Is there any one knows where could I find my backups or make them shown? And if there is anyway that we could delete backups in TWRP like we do iin CWM?
Thank you:

I haven't used TWRP in a long time but this may still help. Look on your internal storage in data/media.
