Rom manager sucks and is extremely unreliable. And why would he uncheck if he wants to keep it?
Because it doesn't go back to that data from that backup

[Q] Backup Stock ROM

Hi all...is it possible to backup my current rom? If so, how?
Thanks
when you boot into clockworkmod you can do a backup there. i think it makes a backup of everything and then you can restore using the clockworkmod...

Thanks. Sounds easy enough. Will give that a try now
I don't think this belongs in the development section.

[Q] WarrantytimeService process

Hi guys,
what this WarrantytimeService process do? It's running on ICS as default process after start-up... Is it really needed? By Titanium Backup Root I found it in the list of all apps/services, it's called "WarrantytimeService 1.0(1)". It has 2,5MB. I killed it in running apps but I don't see any difference... do we really need this process running?
Thank XU
I turned this off too, no diff. Hihi

And how long you are running without it? I plan to uninstall it through Titanium Backup, that's why I'm asking if it's safe...

use 'titanium Backup' app from stores to back all ur apps and then after flashing 'Omega Rom' u can restore all ur apps using the same (Titanium backup app)
Pls tel me which Rom will suit for my s2 . Omega it.consumes battery like anything. Suggest Rom which consumes less battery.. plzzz

No. It doesn't need to.
Also, you should get Pro version of Tb, its much better as you can restore in batch mode without having to accept each install when restoring.
Ok I purchased titanium pro .. I backed up full .. in batch mode. Now clarify me whether the music and images gallery will also be backed up or not ..

[Q] CWM Advanced Restore>Data On New Rom

Hi!
I was wondering, before I do something stupid , if there's any problem on doing an advanced restore, restoring only data, so I could get my apps, contacts, etc on my just flashed ROM Cyanogen Mod 9, for locked bootloader. I have two nandroid backups, one with the stock ROM ICS 6.1.1.B.1.10, and the other with a custom rom, I think called ZXperience.
So, can I do a data restore easily without messing anything?
Thanks!
PS: I'm using Sony Xperia U
Depends on cwm version, if it's 6 then you can't but if below then you can

Thanks for response!
Well, I had 6, so I install the v5... I did na advanced restore from the stock ICS ROM. Now, when turn on, it shows sony logo, then it shows cyanogen mod boot animation, then flashes, get's back to sony logo, and then to cyanogen mod boot animation again and so on.
I can't still boot into CWM Touch Recovery.
How can I restore my settings, contacts, etc?

Ahaha, sorry if I'm being to noob, but I was able to sucessfully install my apps, how do I get my contacts and app data back? I see a lot of contacts and data related files but do I have to manually placed them in the right folder or there's an easier way?
Thanks!

I wasn't sure, a little odd, but it's ok. I used Titanium Backup Pro to restore app+data from a nandroid backup. Much easier.
Thank you so much for the help and patience!
Stay good!
