[Q] Backing up - HTC Droid DNA

I've been an iOS guys for years and I finally made the switch to android a few weeks ago. It's looking like I'm going to send my new droid off to get JTAG but before I do I need to back everything up. I haven't found a good consensus as to the best method to do this and my biggest concern is my apps and app data. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

Carbon? I think titanium should still work for user apps.

You will receive your phone back with all of your data still on there.

ROM with no phone

I'm looking at upgrading to a newer phone next month and I was wondering if there was a ROM out there that didn't have the phone portion set in. I want my phone to be like a iPod so my kids can play with it.

Yea I thought about that, I just don't want 911 called by accident, cause even without a Sim they could still call

I'm currently running miui and I have titanium backup, if I were to do this would it work or would it FC all the time?

I think if you were to freeze phone specific things it couldn't harm anything, but I recommend you go to froyo then do it, for the sake of battery or you could just put it in airplane mode then hide the phone related apps I'm sure that would disable 911 too

I have what you need, let me remove the phone short cut from the launcher and I can get you into a rom set up as nothing but a media player.
Should have around 50 megs footprint.
Let me know if interested.
Edit: I'll put it together and post it for everyone, tonight hopefully.

never
i have never seen it before
Does anyone know how to disable it from showing up on the Widget Locker lockscreen? I'm trying to have it so that I have to unlock the phone to see the pop up, but it's not working for me. I put com.ninja.sms in the disable popups thing but it still pops up.
Bought it. It force closes after minimal use on our device. Stock sense 4.

Very odd. I've given it a good 2 hours of total texting use since yesterday on a Sense 5 ROM with no force closing at all. Try re-installing it?

Bought it and it works super fast. New update today with pop up color changes. Dev is very responsive and hopes to make a full sms ap soon. Worth the try!

Trying out this app one thing I don't get is how do I send messages? And is there away to see all my messages using ninja app? Or is this app only a quick text reply app.
Edit: so I guess it's just a quick reply app.

Why pay for this when it does the same thing as facebook messenger . .? Or does it do anything that the chat heads doesn't do bc I can watch YouTube or be on xda and when someone txt me I can't reply quickly to that person or multiple people

This was available before chat heads was so that's part of it.
Also chat heads has seemed laggy to me when typing multiple messages where I don't have that issue with this.

This is a pretty neat app. I think it's pretty useful I like the pop ups. Works with Verizon messaging app and obviously stock. They really should come out with a full message app.

The latest update fixed the stability issues I was having. I'm on my phone 24/7 so the 'chat heads style' icons rock.

Best SMS app I've tried.
I'm very picky with sms apps as I don't like the idea of sharing my my sweet nothings with someone else's server (paranoia alert!) but, this app does what I want without that fear. I like the idea of picking who it alerts to and that I can keep my chats minimised while doing other things. I use sms flash and this app works really well with it as I use that app to alert me for pin codes and everyone else (because I don't use the reply feature) and Ninja for the important peeps. Cheers Dev!

It doesn't popup on lockscreen though. I find that a must have feature that gosms has. I would also like to initiate a conversation on it and you can't.

Port Facebook home ?

Just wondering if someone knew if Facebook home will be available for RAZR or if it will be ported one day?

I highly doubt that it will be available without some assistance. On the flip side thou, I tried Home out on my wife's Galaxy S III and hated it...it takes over your phone and everything is Facebook! It is a little overkill...I dont need to see my friend's kids at swimming lessons when I power on my phone.
Yeah now that you it it that way I agree lol

It takes over your phone with all it's data I would recommend not using it because then Facebook has access to your phone data and that is bad in my eyes

Annoying SMS POPUP NOTIFICATIONS

Hello All,
This is regarding one of the most annoying issue that many users like me are facing.
I'm currently running neat rom lite version 4.7.
Please know that I have searched through Google to know about this issue, but apparently there were only problems mentioned but no solutions for it.
Please look into the attached image and suggest if anything can be done with regard to this?
Thanks in advance

Nothing of this is mentioned on the ROM thread?
Looks like an ad, a factory reset should solve it.
It must be related to a certain app; which one? I dunno

Hehe.. The funny thing is that i have tried multiple rons but its always been there.. It is defintely not coming from a user installed app
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Not so lite after all.
Are you sure the dev doesn't know how to remove that or why it's there?
Hold on, there's got to be a way to disable that, check your settings.

Haha..
Well I hope someone can come up with a solution for this

That would have been the first thing someone like me would be looking at

Maybe there is something wrong......after wipes,did you use Titanium Backup to restore apps?Maybe one of them is creating the issue.Also,you can try to run a Nuke Script,after hat flash a CM 4.2.2 ROM
Well after reinstalling the rom, i used a software called mybackup pro to restore everything.
If i remember right, even after the full wipe and reinstall, this problem persists

That's a settings conflict, restore the app, try txting and then restore your previous settings.

Hello all!
Just an update which can lead to the closure of this topic.
The popups were caused due to an app.
Smsflash.. I never realized it until today.
