Hello, I seem to be having trouble downloading purchased apps from the market.
I am running Cyan 4.1.999 currently, but the issue started whilst running the Blur Beta (thought flashing a new image might solve the problem. No luck). I searched the forums and another member with the same problem as me solved this issue by reformatting his card. I tried and still, when i try downloading numerous apps from the market, it says the download was unsuccessful. Any ideas?
Thanks guys. I love this supportive community. <3 XDA
are you wiping before restoring your backup? I was running blur beta on a different sd card, when i went back to my cyanogen 4.1.999 nandroid restore i wiped beforehand. Never had issues flashing roms as long as you wipe before you flash or restore a nandroid

I'm confused with FRF72, why is it only 2MB?! That is very small. Is this meant to patch the earlier FRF50 which I have running right now?
Even if it is/or isn't a patch, has anyone tried to run the ROM ZIP WITHOUT WIPING so to save from having to restore Titanium backup? I can't be bothered with the whole process until the weekend is over, unless I can upgrade without wiping. Please let me knwo if any of you have attempted to do that and have you succeeded? Thanks.
When I upgraded 2.1 to 2.2 and was curious, I didn't wipe and the 2.2 successfully booted, and everything all the settings and apps were intact, but it was force closing every single time I tried to run any app, so after that, I wiped, and then it was fine.
I don't want to go through that whole process again though, this time being its 2.2 older beta to newer beta, so it might work without a wipe right?
if u dont wipe u will be stuck in a boot loop. i did a nandroid and then flashed it only to land in the loop. then i wiped and flashed and all was well. thank goodness for nandroid
Silly noob-like question, but I wanted to make sure before I continued messing with my phone.
Does ROM Manager back up EVERYTHING on the phone? For example, I backup my rom. Move the backup file onto my pc. Then I screw around with roms, lag fixes, etc. and totally screw it up. If I "restore" the backup made by ROM Manager, will all my apps, settings, desktop, data files, etc be exactly as they were before I started screwing around?
Or, would I need to use Odin to load the same ROM as that which was backed up and then run Rom Manager Restore?
Thanks!
Yes it does

Here's another question regarding this thread:
I have the lagfix mod which uses the internal sdcard. When I create a backup will it and restore exactly how it was including the lagfix partition? If yes, is it the same procedures or do I have to do it a different way with the extra partition?
Thanks in advance.

Actually I am trying to figure out the same thing. I made a backup before I started messing around with lag fixes, different roms and so forth. Then the other day I tried to restore a rom it didn't work. Eventually I soft bricked the phone and had to make the USB Jig to get it working again. Needless to say I am very intrigued with what exactly Rom Manager does backup and its limitations but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I am thinking the reason my backup was screwed up was because of a lag fix, only problem is I can't remember what lag fix I had on it when I did the initial recovery.
Something from my experience to add here:
Scenario 1:
-----------
I backed up the original 2.1 JH7 on my phone.
Installed 2.2 custom ROM, and played around with it.
Backed up 2.2 ROM.
Messed up with my 2.2 custom ROM.
Went to ROM manager recovery, and recovered the backed up 2.1 JH7, and ended up messing up. My phone didn't even boot up.
Then I went back to recovery, and tried restoring the backed up version of 2.2.
Phone booted up into 2.2, but, started giving a lot of FCs.
Scenario 2:
-----------
Installed 2.2 custom ROM 1.
Backed it up.
Messed it.
Restored it - worked fine.
Installed 2.2 custom ROM 2.
Backed it up.
Restored the 2.2 custom ROM 1.
Everything working fine.
Looks like as long as the core OS is of the same version, it seems to work.
Maybe there is something in the boot sequence that's probably not being restored (???)
---------------
Edit: I do not have CWM app installed. I use the CWM update.zip recovery manager since its the least intrusive way.

Interesting, it would makes sense in what you are saying. My error that I go was when I went from my original JH7 backup, installed a rom based on JH6 and then tried to install my original backup. I might have to try JH6 roms and see if I can restore to them easily or not. I will have to wait for Micro USB cables to come in as I don't have a spare since I used my only cable to make the JIG.
The kernel and modem aren't backed up, so if your backups use different ones and you try to restore them you'll have issues.
I herd a rumor that rom manager doesn't work with froyo on the captivate. But I could be totally wrong.

This is what I have read about it as well
Voodoo
There is also a different version of CWM Recovery (what Rom Manager uses to back things up) for the voodoo lag fix.

It works. I backed up and restored a few variants of Froyo ROMs.

How do I backup these? Is there any way?
If Ron Manager does backup the kernel and modem why would so many people have problems restoring back to different Roms? This is why I am so puzzled with this software.

Rom Manager can backup EFS folder ??
i lost my imei and the only backup that i have its from Ron Manager
Absolutely it does there!
Maybe I'm old fashioned, but best bet is backup from recovery. Saves everything down to browser login data. Can't go wrong with a full backup! I make one every time I flash just about anything.

hi i recently rooted my phone using the SuperOneClick Method from the unlockr.com. i used nandroid to back up my current ROM, and then proceded to flash a custom ROM. after trying it out the ROM for a few hours i decided to revert back to my original stock ROM. now i am currently back on the stock ROM but everything is WRONG. most of stock apps are missing (browser, text messaging, ect..), the market cannot download apps, basically i can only make/receive calls and get gmail. most of the other apps are gone. i have tried to factory reset the phone, i tried reflashing the HTC FRF83 stock ROM that i was on before and nothing seems to work.
i figured what i did wrong. when the phone was creating the nandroid backup, my SD was running out of space. i dont think the backup was complete and when i flashed the backup the phone is missing key components.
can anybody help me? thanks.
Read Wiki, follow "Unroot / restore your Nexus" guide for FRG83.
Hi...I am hoping for an answer here. I have searched everywhere. I don't know if it even matters or why I should really care to do this but I am new to this and it seems I should. I am rooted and running 1.1 update with the stock eclair and have tried to run a Nandroid backup with clockwork, but it stops at "can't mount /system". Can anybody tell me why? or How to make the backup? One answer I saw referred to Gingerbread and EXT4 incompatibility with version 3.0.0.5, but I am in eclair and am running CWM 3.0.1.0.
Also do you really think I need to back up? I have a TiBU for my apps and sys data. I figure if anything goes really wrong I know I can always just redo from stock, just some more wasted time. I guess I am basically asking if there is any real advantage to do a CWM backup anyway at the stage I am at, beside just playing around?
Thanks in advance for any help
From what I understand you get that error until you flash the kernel that came with that recovery. I had the same error until I flashed this zip made by mistar muffin http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971197&page=21 its the recovery and kernel in 1.
I always nandroid backup, just in case.
I'm stuck in a bootloop and cant figure out a way to boot directly into CWR 3.0.1.0. I tried a few different combinations thinking it would be like the N button and the power but have had no luck. HELP!!!
Still need help? Please
Thanks fro your attempt to help. I flashed 3.0.1.0 from Muffin, but still get backup error, can't mount/system. I have searched for hours for an answer, but there is nothing around about this. Am i the only one with this problem, except previous reply. It doesn't make any sense. I even restored to stock, updated to 1.1 and rerooted, so I would have the simplest system. Still same result. Can anybody help? Thanks
nevermind
Don't know why, but I asked ROM manager to backup and it worked. SO if anyone else ever has this issue maybe this will help.
