backup data for an app?

is it possible to backup data from on app before flashing?
i am running dudes cupcake and have bought workoutmanager from the market. i have taken a heap of time to install all my workouts and exercises and dont want to lose it next time i wipe and flash.... the app has an export function but no import.
i found the data for the app in: ls /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr
inside was 2 files- MyWorkout and lib.
i figure i could just copy these to sd card using cp /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr/MyWorkout /sdcard
and same for lib.
then cp this back in after flashing....
would this work?
is this the correct command or do i need cp -a /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr/MyWorkout /sdcard ???
thx

I posted a similar question a little while ago in the main Dream forum. Worth I can't find the link now but if I remember correctly you will find the apps estate in data/data and you can web pull to your computer or copy to your decade.
If you search under my name, it should show up.

thanks mate- i figured it out myself on the weekend.... problem was finding the data folder with the new apps2sd- esp. with me being a linux nooob....
cp /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr/MyWorkout /sdcard
i tested it by uninstalling app and checkin it had deleted all data- it had... then reinstalled, rm the new MyWorkout and cp old one in.
If anyone is wondering: Workout Manager is a great gym app. Best so far- not the best GUI but the fxns are exactly what is required....

App for removing stock apps

Hello,
I did a search and could not find anything. Is there an app available on the Market to remove stock apps from Android? I know there is a terminal command I can use but I have to input the command every time Cyan releases a new build.
Just wondering if there was an easier solution.
Thanks!

Resign the rom after you extact what you don't want, or any root explorer will delete the files after you change it to r/w instead of read-only.

also with root access just go into terminal and mount your phone as rw and remove them that way

There is an app called .... SU something or other. It is a file browser with read/write permissions. You can install/uninstall all sorts of apps, including system apps, or so says the creator.
I haven't tried it yet since it is a paid app and I can do them for free through terminal... but it seems like a good app!

Try GScript

Thats what I have been doing. I want to avoid having to run the terminal commands every time I flash a new cyan update.
Looking for a more automated solution.
Thanks though!

I would say use GScript to do it, but an app could be work. Select the programs you want to remove then it runs the scripts to remove it then reboot your phone. But you want to be careful removing certain apps, it could make your phone unstable or not work.
Never really saw the need to remove these apps other than not seeing them. Never saw a big difference in performance of my phone.

I've used GScript and the following script to remove useless (to me, anyway) apps from every Cyanogen ROM with no problem.
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm /system/app/com.amazon.mp3.apk
rm /system/app/AlarmClock.apk
rm /system/app/Calculator.apk
rm /system/app/Development.apk
rm /system/app/Email.apk
rm /system/app/Mail.apk
rm /system/app/LatinIME.apk
rm /system/app/Music.apk
rm /system/app/Talk.apk
rm /system/sd/app/teeter.apk
reboot
There's no noticeable boost in performance, other than a few MB increase in free space and a tidier app drawer, I don't know if any of the apps use system resources unless they're opened. It's mainly for aesthetics. AFAIK, these are the only apps you can delete without crippling the phone's essential functions. I know you can remove /system/app/LatinIME.apk ONLY if you use HTC_IME.apk and never try to uninstall it. The log collector in Cyanogen's ROMs is also safe to delete as long as you don't care about easy log collecting (ie not having to use logcat in terminal or adb).

try this app

You can't. From what I have experienced, you can remove IM.apk with no problem, but not ImProvider.apk, as removing it breaks the ROM (massive FC's). The icon for the app still shows up in the app drawer, as it's part of ImProvider.apk, but clicking it does nothing. Your best bet it to use Irrenhaus's Advanced Launcher and just hide the icon.

Yeah! I remove the im.apk but the icon still there thanks anyways I almost removed the improvider.apk but I read in some other forums it would damage my rom. Thanks for the heads up tho

erase message app?? factory one!?
is there any way you can delete the original message (white envelope) without fuccin up my messages.. im using handcent sms... and i use my blacklist..but i hate tha other messaging program since it still shows it
i dont wanna use private sms.. so dont mention it..
anywho..just get at me!

Again, just use the Advanced Launcher (I swear I'm not affiliated with the project in any way, it's just an awesome mod) and hide it, and be sure to turn off message retrieval and notifications in the stock messaging app's options. Deleting any stock app that has to do with core functions of the phone (IM, messaging, browser, phone, etc.) is never a good idea, you're just asking for problems if you do. The apps listed in my other post in this thread are pretty much the only stock apps you can delete without causing problems.

I would LOVE to be able to remove the Music program. If I have my bluetooth headset on with phone and media enabled it plays a file every time I hang up. It drives me NUTS. If I disable the BT media it doesn't happen, but then I don't hear the notifications in the headset...
Does anybody know if it's okay to remove the stock music program?
Thanks again for all the help on here.

I finally got adb working and tried:
adb uninstall Music.apk
and I just get a failure.
I apologize for my total noobness, but I saw this:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm /system/app/com.amazon.mp3.apk

rm /system/app/Music.apk
rm /system/app/Talk.apk
rm /system/sd/app/teeter.apk

How do I use that?

New recovery script "utility" / AUTO PARTITION!!!

MORE INFO IN POST 3 HERE
I am happy to announce the release of my new utility script. This script currently has 11 functions as noted below. It runs in recovery with the help of sdutility which is another script that procures the necessary permissions and file location for some of the features. Some of these options are copied from Cyanogen's various scripts located in his recovery image.
Option 11 will ask you what size to make the swap and ext partitions and then it will partition your sdcard for you using the remaining space for fat32.
The menu looks like this:
Code:
1) Enable SDcard to USB
2) Disable SDcard to USB
3) Upgrade ext2 > ext3
4) Upgrade ext3 > ext4
5) Fix Permissions
6) Repair Filesystem
7) Clear Dalvik-Cache
8) Clear ext partition
9) Backup APPS on ext to FAT32
10) Restore APPS from FAT32 to ext
11) Partition SDcard
Q) Quit Utiltity Menu
Enter Number> _

i am going to get you samuel jackson's wallet from pulp fiction because that is what you are with these scripts.

I think these scripts, along with miketaylor00's fix_rotate script, need to be included in every ROMs /system/bin folders.
Btw, why the . in "./sdcard/sdutility"? I'll probably just move these scripts over to the /system/bin folder on my phone for consistency.

That is an execute command and is required because /sdcard is not in $PATH. sdutility copies the utility script which is the actual script doing all the work to /sbin, setting permissions to 755, and launching it. The point of all of that is with the script on the sdcard it can't partition it without deleting itself.

I follow... guess I can just keep it on SDcard to run it from.
I looked at the files and figured that's how it worked... I did copy utility to my system/bin and ran it from recovery console. I even backed up my apps using option 9. It gave me an access denied error from line 173 (the fi command in the script). However, it seems it did back up the apps.

dude, this is awesome. im gunna try it out later... using my ubuntu partition.
anyways, when you backup your apps from the ext partition, does it copy over the google apps as well?

backing up the apps copies the /system/sd/app folder to /sdcard/appbackup.
To the best of my knowledge this is NOT a violation because you are backing up your OWN apps including any closed source apps. As long as you don't distribute these apps you are fine.
P.S. I bought a movie tonight and immediately put it in my computer and ripped it. My reason for this is my computer stores all my movies and my xbox streams them to my TV. Nothing wrong with this because I am not distributing the movie to other people.

I feel the urge to clarify this.
mounts both ext and fat32
check to see if both folders exist and creates /sdcard/appbackup if it doesn't
THEN it copies the CONTENTS OF /system/sd/app to /sdcard/appbackup
but david, I'm a good law abiding citizen and that would be illegal.
catch me on gtalk

So has anyone else had the access denied error referencing line 173?
Fingerlickin... any chance you could work with Cyanogen to integrate this with his recovery? I'm thinking it's time for a Cyanogen Recovery v1.5.

Great work fingerlickin
Unasari, the orig plan for this was to make cyan's recovery more noob friendly, hopefully cyan will roll this into his new recovery and add trackball support to it for the mt3g users. Don't be surpised if you see a wrecking crew modified recovey image

Great work I see all of us got something to keep us busy now.

I am looking into the line 173 error now. We need MT3G support before cyan will touch it, working on that too.

I can't recreate the error at line 173. Lets see if others have the problem as well.

Updated to v1.1 see post 3 HERE for details.
This has a possible fix for your line 173 error. I didn't anticipate someone trying to backup apps when they don't have any apps installed on the ext or you try to backup apps after partitioning the card because there obviously isn't a /system/sd/app directory in this case. I have no idea if this will fix your problem or not.
I also included support for ADB (MT3G) YAY

Updated again.
v1.2
updated to fix_permissions v1.29
fix_permissions always has the -r option

[UTIL] One Click Lag Fix 2.0 by RyanZA

i seen this in the Samsung Galaxy S I9000 and i tried it out on the vibrant and it works perfect, its probably the easiest way to partition your SD card and i can confirm it fixes the lag, i will post my scores shortly...... THANKS RYANZA you saved me weeks of research. go here for more info

[UTIL] One Click Lag Fix 2.0
This version (2-3) is now open for BETA testing! It is known to work on many devices, but still has known issues that could greatly affect you. Please read this whole post a few times until you understand!
Details about what this fix does:
Creates a VIRTUAL EXT2 filesystem inside the stock RFS filesystem on the internal SD card, with a 4KB block size. This means that this lag fix creates a buffer between the real filesystem and the android system. This buffer should reduce the amount of disk I/O required for all operations by utilizing EXT2 buffering, as well as not writing file access times to disk, etc.
Folders that are currently supported:
/data/data
/data/system
/data/dalvik-cache
/data/app
/data/app-private as a symlink to /data/app/app-private
/dbdata/databases is not supported. It appears to be ROM backed, and can cause problems if overwritten.
Benefits over version 1
1.5GB of application data available, with no data loss.
e2fsck of the EXT2 partition on each boot.
Correct busybox version included! YES!
/app and /app-private directory included in the fix for faster application installs.
/dbdata/databases included in the fix, expected to give a big performance boost for apps that use it.
Mounts instead of symlinks for extra performance as OS does less work (about 100 or so more quadrant).
Benefits over other lag fixes
Open source, with full comments and ease of editing.
Works on any and all firmware versions, including any yet unreleased froyo versions (that don't change file structure).
Credits
Big thanks to mimocan for putting us all on the right track in how to sort out lag problems!
Big thanks to ykk_five for showing us all how well loopback filesystem mounting works!
Big thanks to cyanogen mod for e2fsck

Known Issues For All Versions
Some custom firmwares use up all available space in /system. This fix requires some libraries to be placed in /system/lib. These libraries are used to create the filesystem properly, and to check it for errors on every boot.
If your firmware does not have the available space (around 1mb) in /system, do not use this fix! Your phone will not boot and will have to be restored from backup / reflashed.
Current known firmwares with this issue: None yet. Please provide the firmware version+mods if you encounter this issue. It will show up as an out of space error in the log, under 'Copying libraries'.
Known Issues 2-1, 2-2
Paid apps from the market have issues.
Google maps and other pre-installed ROM-backed applications have issues.
2-3 Changes from 2-2
/dbdata has been removed. This fixes maps issues.
/app-private is now a symlink to /app/app-private. This fixes paid apps issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: My apps are force closing while this fix is running, and I can't use my phone!
A: By design. The script has backed up/copied your apps over to the internal SD card (remember the requirement about 1.5GB of free space on the SD card?). It is now overwriting them with a 1.5GB file. As the file overwrites an app that is trying to do something, it will probably force close. This is normal.
Closing all running apps, and removing widgets before running this fix can make the process much smoother, though.
Q: The script can't transfer files to my phone / The script can't run / Help help I'm dieing!
A: Read the first post again.
Q: My paid apps from the market don't show up.
A: I will hopefully have a fix for this sooner or later. Hold tight! It's in the known issues. I don't have access to paid apps, so I can't test this.
Q: Does this need busybox?
A: No, busybox is included.
Q: I only have 200mb of free space now! What gives?
A: The lag fix has made a 1.5GB file, and is storing all of the data inside there. The side effect is that the free space meter is now incorrect. Sorry, this can't be helped.
You can check real free space by using ADB like this:
Code:
adb shell
su
busybox df -h
Q: When I use a backup tool, the backup is now 1.5GB big! It's taking forever!
A: The backup tool isn't designed to work with this fix. It will work, it just won't work well. Hopefully this fix will be short lived, and either Samsung will give us a new update, or someone will give us a good custom firmware that can natively mount what we need, where we need it. Or someone might come out with a better backup manager. Until then, we suffer.
Q: Will a reflash wipe this fix?
A: Yes, a reflash will wipe everything this fix did.
Q: Can this brick my phone?
A: If you know how to get to the download mode from power off (hint: volumedown+home+power), then almost nothing short of throwing your phone off a tall building can actually brick it. If you can't do this though, or don't know someone who can, then you're better off waiting for samsung to release a fix. Anything that moves files around on your device has the potential to break things, and this fix has no QA department.
Q: Why is /dbdata not included in your fix, but other people have included it?
A: Other people have included it in the same way my 2-2 fix includes it. However, /dbdata is ROM backed. This means that the real files are on ROM, and only the changes appear in the /dbdata folder. When copying or moving files from this folder, you would need to specify each folder by exact name to ensure that it was copied across, and each firmware can have their own names. (This is because RFS wildcard will not catch an unused ROM backed file.) In some cases, you can get lucky and have this work perfectly because you have already used all the files in /dbdata. There is no fail safe method to do this though, and /dbdata does not make a big difference to performance. (It is already on NAND flash.) If you want to try your luck, v2-2 is still available.
Q: Why does this lag fix work? Is it slowly destroying my phone?
A: Let's say an application counts from 1 to 10, and writes the value each time to disk.
Stock:
1 -> App tells RFS to write 1 to disk -> RFS writes 1 to disk -> RFS writes journal saying to changed the value on the disk.
2 -> App tells RFS to write 2 to disk -> RFS writes 2 to disk -> RFS writes journal saying to changed the value on the disk.
..
9 -> App tells RFS to write 9 to disk -> RFS writes 9 to disk -> RFS writes journal saying to changed the value on the disk.
10 -> App tells RFS to write 10 to disk -> RFS writes 10 to disk -> RFS writes journal saying it changed the value on the disk.
Total physical disk writes: 20. Speed: SLOW! Wear and tear on disk: HIGH!
Lag Fix:
1 -> App tells EXT2 to write 1 to disk -> EXT2 stores 1 in RAM.
2 -> App tells EXT2 to write 2 to disk -> EXT2 stores 2 in RAM.
..
9 -> App tells EXT2 to write 9 to disk -> EXT2 stores 9 in RAM.
10 -> App tells EXT2 to write 10 to disk -> EXT2 stores 10 in RAM.
..
EXT2 tells RFS to write 10 to disk -> RFS writes 10 to disk -> RFS writes journal saying it changed the value on the disk.
Total physical disk writes: 2. Speed: FAST! Wear and tear on disk: LOW!
This isn't exactly what is happening, but it gives you the general idea.
Q: Can this mod work on other Android devices? Would we see a performance boost on them as well? If not why is it limited to the Galaxy S?
A: SGS has very very good hardware, but it has some parts of it's hardware poorly implemented. The filesystem that samsung chose to use is custom-built using FAT32 as a base, RFS. It has a lot of the problems that FAT32 has, and should have been left back in the 90s, or even the 80s.
One of the big issues with it is how it handles multiple requests - it blocks. It blocks everything. When your mail app wants to read the mail you just tried to view, but your twitter app is busy writing a new tweat it just received, your mail app is forced to wait.
This is bad, but it could be worse! And it is... your twitter app didn't just get one tweat, it got 50 tweaks. It is busy writing the tweats one by one to the filesystem. This would be fine, since all modern filesystems will buffer writes, so instead of writing each one at a time, they will batch them together and write it as a big chunk. Uh oh - RFS does no buffering at all! After each write, it will also write an update to the grafted-on journal system. Guess what happened to your mail you were trying to view while all this happened? It 'lagged' and you got a black screen for half a second, before the mail popped into view.
Luckily the hardware on the device is so good that you usually don't even notice the problem until you have a lot of apps running, all writing their updates when you unlock the phone.
This is mostly speculation based on experiments done on RFS -- RFS is closed source, and we have no idea if the problems are just badly set settings (such as a block size that is too small), coding bugs in the implementation, or if RFS is just really that badly designed.
This fix just grafts a buffer on top of the RFS filesystem, using a very very simple and fast filesystem, EXT2. It fixes most of the issues by writing to RFS as seldom as possible.
So no, this fix won't fix other devices, since they're already running quite close to maximum speed. The SGS at stock is running nowhere near maximum speed, and this lag fix takes it a bit closer. You could probably speed up other devices by tweaking the filesystem settings to give them a big buffer or similar, but it isn't really needed. (I haven't actually tried to put an EXT2 onto any other Android phone, as I don't have any other Android phone, so this is just speculation.)
Q: My phone is fast now!
A: Yeah.

no problem, download the quadrant standard app and run the test and post your score

I got 2072 quadrant score for the phone after the fix, how did the OP manage to get 2700+?

I'm still on version 1 with no issues. Any major differences or Improvements.

Uninstalled the Alpha fix and tried this one. upon reboot, I'm getting an error:
Memory Full
Internal phone storage is nearly full
Delete/Uninstall some applications or data
Didn't have this problem with the alpha fix.
Guess I shouldn't had played with the beta.
Any ideas?
Running Stock Kernel, just rooted.
I'm running Unlagfix now to remove.
Side note: I noticed that my custom font settings disappeared... Icons still appear to be in the same place.
Update:
I just re-read the FAQ. Storage reporting error... heh.. doh.
However, when running uninstall, it started streaming the following error message about 20-30 times over:
cp: write error: No space left on device.
Can't create directory 'data/bak/app': No space left on device
Update again:
Unlagfix didn't seem fully successful. All my application data/etc disappered. Looks like they are still in the /data/ directory, but not showing up on the device.
Here is a listing result
If I'm reading this correct, does that mean the Unfixlag didn't complete it's task? Looks like I still have a 1.5gb partition for data.

i started from scratch, i flash the true tmobile vibrant image to start from scratch, you dont have to do this but i did. Link is below
http://tinyurl.com/2bc5b6r <-- true tmobile vibrant image, it also includes odin
after that was done, i used the utility to format my card, you can get the one click utility below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=751864
after that i reboot, install the app and did a test and thats how i got my speeds.
edit: after installing all my apps back, i actually average about 2400-2500 , i havent seen the 2722 after installing all my apps

i would start from scratch like i did when i first tried it, because i think the other lagfixes actually jacked something up. follow the steps below

Just a heads up!
A new version is available for people having trouble with this lag fix, check it out here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=760571
It is designed to be easy to use and a lot safer.

Just wanted to say thanks to djkdawg for posting this and RyanZA for all the work!

im having font issues how about anyone else? i had choko cooky as my default and now it doesnt work anymore...
edit: no fonts work...

Code:
Making new directories to use as mount points for later.
We will now create a 1.5GB real EXT2 partition /data
Will take a long time.
dd: /data/linux.ex2: No space left on device
Linking loopback to the 1.5GB data file store
Creating the EXT2 filesystem
mke2fs 1.40.8 (13-Mar-2008)
mke2fs: Device size reported to be zero. Invalid partition specified, or
partition table wasn't reread after running fdisk, due to
a modified partition being busy and in use. You may need to reboot
to re-read your partition table.
Creating a mountpoint for files.
Mounting device
mount: Invalid argument
Copying data across. This could take a bit of time.
I keep getting this error when attempting to install. Not sure what's going on. I've got 8.5gb free on internal memory before beginning install. That should be plenty.

[Q] Any apps to show size of folder in /data partition

As all know, N1 comes with very few ROM space to install apps. Though this can be fixed partially using app2ext, space in /data is still very limited...
Is there any apps / script that could list out the size of folders in /data partition? With that I could monitor over the usage of /data space... thanks in advance.

I found some on the market, but they seemed inaccurate. So I just use the terminal. Here is what I do...
Code:
su
cd /data/data
du -hd 1 | grep M
This will show you all apps that are larger than 1MB (minus a few with a capital M somewhere in the name). I would then take this info and use Titanium Backup to move a few individual apps that took up a large amount of data (Firefox and Google Earth are two big ones) and moved them to the ext partition.
Maybe not the most elegant or easy solution, but it works great for me.

I use DiskUsage...

Thanks
DiskUsage is really handy, fast and easy to use.
I will note the command in case I have to deal with ADB shell in the future. Thanks
