Open browser and put this in m.sonyericsson.com/backup
if not compatable with 2.2 you will need to flash back to the level you created
backup
Not positive if it will work, but you can try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826849
Just download and unzip the file you need, in this case, backupandrestore.apk
Next, move it to your sdcard, and install using ASTRO or your choice of file manager.
Remember, I am not 100% positive if it will work on FreeX10 2.2 firmware.

Installation works fine with CWM5, but backup/restore doesn't so i suggest you download the official CWM 4.0.0.9 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168417 Download from here and flash ) and use that for backup/restore
I beta tested the ROM, but i forgot to tell devilsking to add that.

I meant restore, it gives an md5 mismatch, and you're screwed if it does so.

Sent from Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 using Grif's Cyanogenmod & allinone ram script.
Dont jus say thanks, use d 'THANKS' button. [XDA RULE]
Same eror
Even i got the same error but i havent changed the name any idea what to do ??????

In adb shell or in a terminal emulator, navigate to your backup folder
Code:
cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/name-of-your-backup/
md5sum *tar > nandroid.md5
This code resolves md5 checksum errors. Now try to restore.
In case this fails,use advanced restore to restore each .tar one by one

[Q] First time Android and problem on saving EFS

Hi Community !
The first time I rooted an Android device and now I found this portal ! GREAT !!
Sorry for, but as a new member I can not post in the specific thread. I have a problem with the EFS Prof. 2.0.26 on backup.
Creating archive shows error - operation faild.
that's it...
Where will be the files stored ? What is the problem ?
thx
I made it now with 1.7.14, ist that OK ?
Do u have your S3 working? Try downloading Hc-ktool from market or somewere else and backup. I have lost my EFS file so i cant turn on my S3 .I have send it to servise now.
No, my phone works fine. I just want to save the EFS, I did it now with an old version, the new is not working.

Have a look on the market for an EFS backup app.
Many custom roms offer the option to backup EFS during install .

You can install a custom kernel and use setcpu. Make a profile of screen off and set the freqs to minimum. You can also switch to another rom. I recommend Smplicity by abhi922. You can also install Adernalin Engine. Regards.

For more you can visit http://whatswithtech.com/improve-android-battery-life/. If you ever need any help regarding your Ace-i, you can PM me.
thanks to both of you for replying. I've tried the stock ROM and it's basically the same with the battery life.
you mention above about installing a kernel, I'm really new to android and the whole OS and stuff so I have no idea what a kernel is or what it does. could you explain?
how would I install that ROM you're on about mate?
thanked both of you.

2 days battery backup isn't bad for android device..
and from my experience stock rom and custom rom gives same battery backup..
you can buy a higher power battery (which have more mAh rating) if you want better backup

thanks mate.
I've just installed the ROM that was stated above, I've also installed a custom kernel. now it's running fine and fast. install CWM (fyi, I couldn't do it before!) and the rom, kernal and module. hopefully this will sort out my battery life.
if I need anymore help or any question, I'll ask on facebook or here. thanks again. thanked you again.
If we use higher mAh battery doesn't the phone get hot while charging??

no,
just one thing should be taken care is that the voltage rating must be same as the original battery..
we are not increasing current..
we are just increasing the capacity of battery..
which will take more charging time and
give you more talk time
