Did a full wipe.. - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

And boom, this baby is faster. It was weird, apps would load pretty slow, internet browsing SUCKED, general slowness and battery drain and whatnot. Now, it's SUPER fast. Everything works great, except my shortcut keys for the dock, which is weird. But even the battery last so much longer. I was able to do root again, then did voodoo rootkeeper. Then I installed titanium backup (after moving the folder off the SD card along with whatever else you want to keep) and restored the apps, but app only, not data (except for a few key ones). It seemed to work for the most part and this baby works like a charm. I had 3.2 and updated to 4.0 so maybe a wipe is something you might consider if you're TF is feeling slow, even in performance mode.

Thanks. Helpful for me because I've been considering doing the same thing after the. 19 update that's supposed to be coming. I feel like all of the past updates which were more designed for bug fixes have been putting more of a damper on the performance. With this upcoming update, it looks like they are now actually focusing on features and user experience, so I want to make sure that I don't associate those 'improvements' with lackluster behavior I've noticed since a couple updates ago.
For the first time ever, I experienced 3 random reboots in the same day a couple days ago. I hugged Optimus and told it not to worry. Everything will be okay.

Pretty much. It's a factory reset. It's a real pain because you have to reinstall everything from scratch.
UNLESS you have root and a good backup utility like Titanium Backup.
Then you wipe, get root (back), install Titanium, and restore you system settings, apps, and data.

I am going to take the chance on posting this and getting flamed because people already know, if you don't know I would appreciate the thanks.
Titanium is great for keeping important data but a better and easier way to get a real fresh start after wipe is appbrain.
Do Titanium full backup
install appbrain and fast web install
sync
login to appbrain online and rename your prime list to old
wipe/factory reset
reinstall appbrain and fast web install be sure to enable fast web install
sync
log in to your appbrain account and copy the apps from old to your new device
open appbrain on device
sync
install
watch a movie while all your apps download without needing you
restore data from titanium where needed, restore programs that are not in the market
????
profit
The difference here is that you don't restore any corrupted programs from Titanium

Doesn't anyone know how the built-in ASUS app backup works? Is it affected by the factory reset?

^ im curious on this also. im willing to try this.

I'm going to say it does, since it wipes the SD card. But if you put a microSD or regular SD you should be able to save to that instead, then restore from that after. It might be as good as Titanium, or app brain, I think part of the key is not restoring data, apps only.

Works a treat. I used it. The only thing is if savedata (like levels in games) is saved on sd, you are going to loose it. But it can be always manually copied. Any other app which saves logins and such in /data (i think it's /data will be fine). And no root needed.
To OP, done it before. No difference. My TFP never been sluggish, just suffers from occasional browser freeze, well, more than occasional, and reboots when certain apps fc. Wipe didn't fix that.

so after factory reset, i can go google play and reinstall all my old previously bought apps? or i need to pay for it again?

Lol yeah, you can re-download your apps It keeps up with everything you pay for and even with most of the free stuff you install. Easier route may be to use ASUS's App Backup or if you're rooted Titanium Backup (Pro is worth it).

After doing a full wipe at lunch i can confirm my prime seems much snappier. Also my dolphin browser works flawless finally. Asus back up did not work for me.

Asus backup looks fairly simple. Just open the app, then choose the apps you want to backup. There is a check for data only or data and application near the top right. Choose data and app if you want both, but for some reason you can only do 600MB, not sure why. But if you have it under that (I unchecked all my games and got it low enough) then you can hit the backup button on the top, which then has a (Checkbox) option to also save to the microsd or SD card plugged in

ic. Very informative.
Haven't played with the SD slot on the Prime so I guess I have a reason now =)

You also have an option to save a copy to the MicroSD, card if it's mounted. I'm in the process of a wipe now and will let you know about the restore using the ASUS backup. I've used TB in the past but haven't rooted this unit yet and so can only speak to the ASUS backup.

To be just a little more precise, the ASUS backup app creates a file in the ASUS folder that can be copied to a PC, USB drive, to the cloud, or whatever, and then copied back to the same folder when the wipe is done. Then apps and data can be selectively restored. Works well.

Titanium Backup Question......

What is the main use of this app? What i mean is..is it mainly only for people who does alot of ROM switching...so they have to save there apps?
If someone (Like Me) who will never switch there ROM and plan on staying on the ROM they have...would they still NEED this app? If so..for what purpose?

In my opinion, yes.
Just because you never switch roms doesn't mean you don't need a backup. Ttitanum can be used to back up apps, apps data & system setting (an of course restore all, some or one).
More than likely at some point in the life of your tablet you will start getting force closings, lockup, etc, due to an errant app, incompatibility or whatever. In those situations, sometimes it is necessary to do a fatcory/data reset & poof there goes all your installed apps & settings. Reinstall titanium after the reset & restore & your back in business OR you can spend lots of time re-downloading, installing & configuring things the way you want them.
It's also a good idea to use CWM to do a nandroid backup just in case.

All custom roms on the gTab are already rooted. Only if you go back to stock will they not be.
Installing roms & using nvflash are really much easier that they look/sound.

[Q] Bulk Install Paid Apps

I know some rom's when signed into will bulk install previous apps and paid apps. My question is can that be done manually though adb or some sort of script. I think others have wondered this too. I haven't found an answer so thanks for any and all advice.

As long as you just restore the app and not data, you'll be fine. I don't even use TB except to uninstall stuff myself.

Not 100% clear on what you're attempting to accomplish. Since I'm not clear, I'll do my best to take a few guesses at what you could be asking.
I assume you're not referring to some ROMs which come *packaged* with apk files already.
Example, you have 20 apk files and you want to install them all at once? OR you have 20 apk files and respective data for them and want to install the apk and their data?
As far as I've seen, logging into the Google account which had settings backed up to it will only install the apk files and not retain the respective data for those apps.

By restoring just the app, this answer is referring to the first example I suggest and I completely agree from my own personal experience. Restoring just the apk file, *should* not have any issues.
This is making the assumption the apk is compatiable with the specific version of Androd OS being used on the device, but generally this is not an issue.
If you're interested in the technical details behind how the process works, I can give a few high level points.
The package manager for Android constantly monitors two locations, /system/app and /data/app. If an apk file is added or removed for either of these two directories, the package manager will automatically process it by either parsing the new apk file and adding it to the launcher or by removing it from the launcher and potentially uninstalling the associated data.
Off the top of my head, from adb shell which you mentioned a potential "script" process, the adb command is adb install c:\downloads\blah.apk and the uninstall command is adb uninstall com.joeykrim.appname .
If you're wanting to script inside android using bash/sh instead of outside android using the OS as I previously mentioned with adb, inside Android, I *think* it is pkg .. or pkmg .. I'm not clear on the exact command which prob shows how little I work with the package manager in Android.
Personally, I add and remove apks thru adb or manually copying the apk into one of the active directories and/or remove them manually by taking out the apk file from one of the active directories and removing the associated /data/data directory for the directory.
Hope that isn't tooo much and helps provide some more technical detail!

This is exactly what I want to happen. For the market to reinstall the APK files without the data. They're not all paid apps some are free and they would install automatically after a login. This hasn't occurred by itself in a while for me and I was wondering if there is a way to force it. I dont like having to use titanium and data usage from re downloading all the apps doesn't really bother me.
Sent from my GT-i9100 using Tapatalk
I've never done it, but aren't you able to sync all your apps to App brain and have it reload them?
Honestly, I always run a "sync all" through the accounts and sync section in the settings menu before I switch ROMs. As soon as I open the market and agree to the terms and conditions, it automatically redownloads all the apps I just previously had, both paid and free.
ok so then I have a ? too... if you don't restore data, and we're all flashaholics, how do you get your game data back. say you play paradise island or angry birds or any other long term game, do you start at level 1 each time you flash a new one?

this is a great question and unfortunately i personally dont play any of the games .. not really much time. thats more a personal issue though .. haha. as such, i cant speak from too much personal experience.
i have seen game data, specifically angry birds stored in a secure directory on the /sdcard before. also, if not using the sdcard, i also do remember seeing a specific separate "secure" mounted partition.
not sure if they still follow this practice, but i would look into the secure directories / mount points / sdcard and would go after backing up / restoring those.
the up side to this issue is all android device users who customize their devices with root access should face the issue of being able to backup/restore their game data. this point increases the likelihood of there being a good guide / resource is much higher as this is not an evo 3d specific issue.
i would be interested to see any results ppl find. please feel free to post back!
hope that helps!

Absolutely nothing lol. I back up apps and data with TB and I always restore everything. Did it going from Sense to MIUI, back to sense, and even for ICS. I have about 50 apps that TB backs up and restores for me, never had a single issue with any of them.
So long as you don't back up SYSTEM apps or data, you won't have any problems.
But, as always YMMV, this has just been my experience.

Software Update

I received a message about a software update this morning. Foolishly, I downloaded the update without thinking. It's not that I was going to root or anything, I'm content at the moment.
When I tried using the dedicated camera button, it wouldn't work. Then an error report notification came up and I sent the error report. The camera button works sometimes. When I was taking pictures, I tried the rapid-fire picture taking and it didn't work and also gave me an error report, which I sent. The rapid-fire now works sometimes too. I'm not sure what's happening.
It seems like they changed Task Manager too. Now it shows Available and Total. Did it used to show Used and Available? I can't remember. The items listed are now in bold. If I end all the tasks, I usually get to around 400 MB available out of 1024 MB it says. What could be using up all this memory?
Have you guys run into anything with the update? I just wanted to have a discussion about it.
You may need to factory reset. If there were any glitches in the download, it will screw up your phone, like your camera, but a factory reset should fix it. I did the update last week then factory reset. My camera is functioning properly. I cannot speak on the task mgr as I don't really use it.

It will not delete pics in your gallery if they are saved on your SD card. I recommended My Backup Pro to save your apps. 3rd party messaging apps often have back up and restore functions or you can use SMS Backup to back texts up to your email.

I don't use Google Wallet, but I cleared all data from Settings.
I think I'm going to back up everything to a microSD card and whatever apps and then reset. I'll see if it fixes things for me. Is there anything else I should be aware of? Maybe I'll root after resetting. I'll look into that.
Regawmod has finally been updated and makes it all easier. I would still recommend unlocking the manual way because it requires extra steps that makes things a little easier to understand. Some people are getting stuck in loops and the only way to fix is to fastboot but since regawmod handles everything they don't have the adb tools package or how to use it
Did the factory reset fix your camera button issue?
I ordered a micro SD card and I'll backup my stuff when I get it. Everything is fine atm.

Hi,
I had not rooted or unlocked my phone. I decided to do it but that was after I took the update . Well I found out I cannot get s-off now. I was able to unlock and root with Regawmod. I had to manually put it into recovery a few times but it works great.
Okay, so I have restored all my apps, data, and text messages after the factory reset. It seems that Sense doesn't like remembering my Home settings. MyBackup Pro didn't backup Android Home perfectly so I redid my Home screen. I have apps arranged into groups and I removed all the other panels so that I only have one panel. When I restarted my phone, the other panels were still there and the groups of apps weren't there. I created my own Scene and restarted and it' been fine. I haven't gotten any error reports or anything.

{Q} How to reinstall data after complete wipe

Having some issues with rom I'm running, but also want to know for when I flash CM10 from sense rom. How can I keep my texts, email accounts synched, app data, or reinstall it after a factory reset type wipe?
Do I go into recovery and install what file? I didn't see data as an option in twrp, only system (for wiping anyways). What is the best way to do this? I'm currently dirty flashing everything, but that won't always be doable.
Specs: S-off, newest radios/firmware, stock/goodies rom. Ummm, twrp 2.2 I believe.
Use titanium backup to back up and restore apps and app data. Emails and contacts are synced with your Google account. It's not a good idea to backup and restore system apps and data. There are apps in the play store for backing up texts.

U know, I did that on my og EVO and hated restoring each app one by one. I have tb premium now though, so I can one click restore right? For some reason not all of my contacts restore with Google, so I don't trust it. Isn't chrome supposed to back up all your passwords and usernames for websites as well?
Sorry guys, haven't wiped data since og EVO. It really got me hating to flash New roms, turned into an all day event restoring and getting it running again.

Nice interface, easy to use.
Backup/restore of apps actually works (I had issues with Titanium)
build.prop editor is included
Ad blocker
You can manage apps (like Titanium) and freeze/uninstall/etc
It also has some ROM management tools that look pretty sweet, though I have not used them to date.
The developer is also easily accessible via email, and is responsive, so if you have issues you can contact him.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

While browsing in Chrome I noticed that the back button on the lower right corner doesn't register touches sometimes. I have to touch the back button multiple times until it works.
Anybody else having issues with touch?
It should not be the case.
Backup data, factory reset the phone, restore data without restoring apps and settings and then check. It's time consuming but is a great way to start with a brand new phone.
Is this issue only on chrome? Or in other apps too?

Yeah, don't use SmartSwitch. Do a clean load from scratch. If you don't screw it up with upgrades/updates or buggy apps a good load can last years on an Android and remain fast/stable with minimal maintenance.
ApkExport can be used to create installable copies of your current apps so no Playstore is needed. Saves time and sanity.

adb pull /sdcard
delete Android folder and copy over everything manually to the internal storage on the folder (adb push won't push subfolders)
Set up everything else from absolute scratch.
It's annoying but this is the only way to make sure you're starting with a clean slate and that your bugs aren't caused by something from your old phone. Spending an hour or two now can save you tens of hours down the line in troubleshooting nonsense nobody else seems to be suffering from and coming to the conclusion you have to factory reset anyway.
It's a good time to clean up apps you may not use much anymore too as you'll have to install your apps manually. I usually end up losing 10-20% of the apps I had on my old phone because I realize I don't really use them.

adb pull /sdcard
delete Android folder and copy over everything manually to the internal storage on the folder (adb push won't push subfolders)
Set up everything else from absolute scratch.
It's annoying but this is the only way to make sure you're starting with a clean slate and that your bugs aren't caused by something from your old phone. Spending an hour or two now can save you tens of hours down the line in troubleshooting nonsense nobody else seems to be suffering from and coming to the conclusion you have to factory reset anyway.
It's a good time to clean up apps you may not use much anymore too as you'll have to install your apps manually. I usually end up losing 10-20% of the apps I had on my old phone because I realize I don't really use them.

Could copying everything manually what's inside the folders, cause problems in terms of cache and so on? Do these folders contain cache?

Yes. The whole reason to do a clean load is to ensure the integrity of the load and to not reload the previous problems or malware. Letting the apps install clean is important.
I only restore data to trusted apps that allow backup and are difficult to setup from scratch... like Poweramp.
If you fail... you will live with the issues it caused until you factory reset it, again, in the worst case scenario. It's good to go through installing all the apps and configuring them at a reload as it allows you to spot previous mistakes and raises your level of awareness.

Yea I get it, like you should only backup the folders/appdata from apps you know it won't cause problems. Otherwise clean installing best option.
Today I also found out that some websites in Firefox, also have this problem in top left corner not responding. I guess it's software related, because same websites had no issues on Chrome.
