Hello.
I have Omega v12 ROM installed.
But i want to install it again using "Remove Bloatware" option. I dont want any other method of this and i just want to install it again.
So heres my question->
How do i reinstall it without loosing my apps and apps data and rest of things?
You should be able to re-install over the top and remove all the bloatware
Just wipe Dalvik & Cache before install

Well thanks dude
But please tell me this only if you are full sure.
I dont want my any type of app or its data to be removed.
PS-> I cant use backup app, can tell reason. But if possible, please tell me without it.
I just want to know that whether reinstalling Omega removes my data or not
I'm sure
It is stated in the v12 change log it is a "no full wipe rom"
See the Omega discription on what is ment by "No Full Wipe Roms"

Do one thing..open the zip file..use 7zip.open the meta-INF FOLDER...open com》Google》android and use notepad++ to open updater script..now use search to find words format/delete..if the updater script deletes the /data partition your internal data will be wiped..otherwise just flash it over the current Rom with dalvik and cache wipe before and after flashing..

My software on my droid x2 isn't doing good. From what I have seen something will happen in the background that causes all my system apps to restart, only they never finish restarting which begins to devour my memory and eventually leads to my phone freezing up. Also the ringtones like to change randomly to default (alarms set in third party apps too).
I was hoping rooting and getting rid of bloatware would solve this problem but it is still persisting. I thought I could restore backed up system apps with Titanium Backup so I was removing the apps. I'll leave them "restoring" for 45 minutes with no luck (I tried both just restoring the app and restoring both apps and data). So apparently it doesn't work like that.
My question is if I do a factory reset with my phone in its current condition, will I have an issue?
If u diddnt freeze the apps then you might. Did u back them up before u removed them?
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
Yes I backed up all of them, but when I go to restore them it doesn't work. It just keeps restoring them eternally. I waited 45 minutes for app only restore and it wasn't done.
If I am just clearing data in the process of a factory reset, can I maybe wipe data manually or with a tool that wipes data?
Anyone know the answer to this? I tried installing from the apk pack of services, but not all of them would install. My phone really needs a factory reset, I'm getting a lot of software related errors.
Could I maybe manually wipe certain apps? If anyone happens to know which built in apps are okay to wipe I would like to know.

Yes you can wipe an apps data. Go to applications in the settings menu and then click on the app you want to clear and select clear data.

Not all the apps in system can be installed via tapping on them. They need to be manually moved to system/app then change permissions. You can copy all over using root explorer

All you need to do is swap internal and external mount points. My Eclipse ROM has this built in. There is an init.d script that is floating around here that will do it as well.

I've a Lg 2x (Aka Optimus Dual) temasek's UNOFFICIAL BUILD, now i saw an update from temasek. I'm asking how i can install the new room file as a simple update without losing any app/contact etc.
Well if it's possible what's the correct way to do an update of a custom Rom ?
Very thanks,
Sorry for the question but i've googled and nothing, also searched here but nothing
if its a update of the same build jus erase cache and dalvik cache and install the rom. then ur data remains untouched. but if the rom is different u need to full wipe. data will be lost. but u can sync contacts to gmail and retrieve back any time.

What does errase cache and dalvik cache do? Does the settings stay the same or do you have to set them again when you update? If it delets settings...can you update without errasing cache?
Nope...clearing cache and dalvik cache only wipes unimportant info...your settings will be there as long as you don't press factory reset...

exactly. but look for the requirements for the update. sometimes even updates may require data wipe if the dev states it.

All the above is good and true. I'd like to add that I always make a ROM backup with ROM Manager before I update my ROM. That way, if something should go wrong, I can get back to where I was before the update.

Dude you could just install Titanium Backup from the play store and back up all the apps and data you want to. And yeah, your device needs to be rooted. Cheers.
I've tried several ROMs on my Neo MT15i, rooted, unlocked bootloader, alliance kernel 1.5, firmware .587. Now I'm on Thilinac Ice cream pureness 14 sp1. Everything is working well..... but... Every time I reboot the phone I MUST clean cache and Dalvik cache via CWM recovery. If I don't do it , after booting several apps go force closing in loop and the phone is unusable. I've had this problem also with other ROMs like Jelly-Sandwich, any release. Tried also to format sdcard without benefit.
Thank you for help
Try clearing app data from settings!
Then,reboot

Unfortunely it doesn't work....
It afflicts every app I install as user, either in system /data, or in sdcard.
After installing a new Rom, on a clean system, I use titanium backup to re-install my apps.

I do this every time I install new ROM
I've formatted system, data, cache, everything. Than reinstalled the ROM (Ice cream Pureness 14 sp1).
when booted I didn't reinstall anything from Titanium and tried a reboot......... As usual, Gmail and Google playstore
went FC loop. GMail and Playstore are apps coming with the ROM .... Than I rebooted in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache and .... all run perfectly and smooth... The problem is still there.
Next time I'll try formatting all, reflash firmware .587, and than reinstall ROM.

Exactly. I had this problem with JellySandwich too, I tried several ROMs, but, at last, what I like more is IceCreamPureness for its balance , smothness and for very good battery life.
And how u solve this FC problem?

explained in previous post.
The problem is related to the moving of apps to sd card or in system partition. It afflicts the managment of dalvik cache

I asked about that b4 and they told me it's ok about partitioning sd card.. I was suspicious about link2sd and u confirmed that now but iam disappointing the basic reason that I root for is to move all applications on sd card

Format system, reflash ROM, and do NOT flash gapps.
Always backup first.
If your ROM contains gapps, you will have to use something like WinRAR to delete them before flashing
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
why not just wipe system and data and reflash the ROM and correct gapps?
You could do a fresh install and download titatium backup without playstore, follow the link: mediafire.com/?a7o2cr04ub27kd0

hey guys i am having some serious issues with the phone app (core process) & contacts app crashing all the time on the new .402 firmware...
this happens irrespective of kernel
even tried wiping appslog, cache, dalvik-cache still no luck
any ideas would be greatly appreciated as i dont want to sit re-installing everything
did you update to .402 and if yes how?
could you provide details flashed, ota, data wipe blah blah etc etc
since the app is broken a way to fix (not sure if this works on an odexed rom) but obtain the apk that is misbehaving (a working one from a stock rom)
delete the apk (from system)and odex,reboot and settle for a bit make a flashable zip of the apk and flash (copying doed not work when the device is running)
misc:
you can use android tuner or apps alike to remake the odex for the app you replaced
the method above definatly works on a deodexed rom, ive probably gone through it thousands of times by this point, par due to my poor coding
the data for that individual app may be gone but i think thats due to what ever they did after 4.1 to the app data management

updated to .402 the usual way... flash everything except userdata partition in FlashTool...
i never use OTA only FTF... appslog wiped, cache wiped, dalvik-cache wiped...
i am on pure stock ROM...
any more thoughts?
Did you try to wipe data for phone, contacts... etc.?
If yes, time to wipe contacts/phone storage and resync those information using exchange etc.
Also, try to disable (uninstall) xposed. And change the DPI to stock if you're using a custom one.

Hi DooMLoRD,
Did you restore/backup your contacts/messages with titanium-backup cause the contacts seems to crash cause the sqlite-db is locked.
I would try to clear the app-data/cache from contacts-storage and try again. (settings->apps->all->clear data/cache)
Or did you use any other apps wich are using the information from the contacts app.
I hope this solves it.

I suggest backing up your data
Clear app data and if it doesnt work then flash a deodexed rom
The app should work and if it breaks again you can simply reflash the individual app after deleting from your system
If it still doesnt work then flash a FTF
And if it still doesnt work then it could be the usual app bug that causes an app to FC for no reason, in which case you will have to data wipe and a posible rom reflash
I found this was a common issue when making app mods for my self or even a varient FFL kernel or even a base rom

Phonebook crashes
Hi there,
I have a Z1C with last firmware, no root, no xposed, just the out-of-the-box phone and I have the same issue.
Phone crashes over phone and phone book apps. I also tried to re-install firmware through Sony tool (the official one in PC companion) and after a while once again.
I'm not sure but it started after I set up the custom sorting in the app drawer.
Z1c shows up crash windows with those processes:
