First of all,hi all,newbies here.. Bought my O2X for about a month n flashed a few custom roms..question is,i read somewhere that 'restoring data' after flashing roms can cause battery drain issue,is that mean restoring thru recovery or titanium backup? I always use titanium backup n restore app only,afraid of the batt drain issue,but it gets annoying coz i need to set up everything again.(account login,settings).

Only restore "user apps", not system data when coming from another rom.
Sometimes restoring user apps WITH data can cause problems, like batterydrain. For example when going from froyo to gingerbread.

Which means everytime we flashed new roms,we need to setup all the accounts n apps settings again,rite? I thought it can be easier. ;-P

not really, when staying on froyo rom (MCR Kitchen for example), just flash over new rom, you will keep your data ...
when flashing new baseband -> also just restore backup in CWM
when changing to CM, i would recommend using titanium or mybackup pro to restore your apps (exclude system apps in backup, cause they are different !)
but when you´re staying on CM , just flash new rom, you will keep your data !

yes !!
i came from fr14 to fr18b2 without wiping anything !
i would only wipe once when you plan to move to cm, but when you stay on MCR based roms, just reflash rom and enjoy !

Fear, BlazingDragon, they are all based on MCR, so it shouldn´t be a problem ...
just try out, in worst case, when facing a bootloop or some other problems, you can wipe anyway afterwards ...
so it´s good to have a "titanium" or "mybackuppro" backup for worst case
Ok thanks dude!

Hello XDA,
I just registered, and I know that I have to search first. But the New Experience thread has like 117 pages, I don't exactly remember.
So that isn't quite gonna work.
Here's my problem:
I followed the instructions to install, but my phone is not booting, it shows: INDONESIA CYANMOBILE SQUADZONE
Sometimes the screen goes black, then I press the power button and it turns back on.
Does anybody have an idea of what I have done wrong? I installed a new rom before but I did that using ODIN and stuff..
I installed this rom from 2.3.6 for Galaxy Mini.
Thanks in advance,
Sanderth.
EDIT: I restarted the phone, it showed the logo of New Experience and did the same thing as before. Then I wiped everything again.. Still waiting for it to boot, should take 10 minutes but I don't think it will work this time..

You have to wipe data+cache+dalvik cache in CWM recovery before and after install rom to be on the safe side!

Well I back upped too... But it wouldn't boot, that's why I decided to flash a new stock rom, I wanted a clean phone anyways
Well my phone just booted again, I've got my stock Android back. I will wait flashing to 2.3.6 since I really want another ROM... Flashing to 2.3.6 is useless if I'm gonna flash it to another anyways.. Can anybody recommend a good ROM for Galaxy Mini?

I was on Mackay rom and before that I was on IZS. But when I tried to flash IZS I got stuck in a boot loop, the phone just hangs on the LG logo and is unresponsive. Can anyone tell me what I can do to fix it?

Which version you installed? You need to install the version 0 first before flashing the update packages

I use the same version 0 file I had used the first time to install it. The firt time I installed I did v0 and then v0.1 and later v0.2 and then v0.4. Then I decided to try Mackay as I really want Jelly Bean, but the stability, battery life and camera on IZS is just great and that's why I wanted to go back.
Anyway, so my phone got stuck in a bootloop and the only way I could recover it was to use smart flash and flash my old v20e, then I did a full wipe and then tried IZS but got same boot loop. I then did the whole process again with smartflash and v20e and tried JellyBam v4 and Mackay version 2.6.3 and they worked fine. So not sure IZS won't work. Mackay is def not the worst rom to be stuck on, in fact if it had a better camera and not the sd card issues of cm10.1 then it would be just as good in my opinion.
So any ideas? Thanks in advance
Sv: Boot loop when I try install IZS
Try to use pre-izs package
Cheers

As RomWiz said if you use Smartflash anyway use the PRE_IZS_IMAGE (do it like Huexxx explaind in 'case C') and next time you might know why it sometimes is very good to have a nandroid. If you had done that as you still where on IZS before you tryed Mackay you probably could have restored that nandroid much easyer.

Thanks, I will try the PRE IZS image. The funny thing is I did make a nandroid backup before changing to Mackay, but when I tried to restore it, the MD5sum didn't match for some reason. Any idea why that would be?
Anyway thanks guys you have been super helpful and friendly too

It can happen if you rename the nandroid. The name is part of the MD5sum and some programs that help you with reorg your backups should change that, but I had it already that they mess up. Or some backups are dammaged anyway. If you make the backup in CWM directly the changes that it's not OK are slimmer as when you make it with the online nandroid backup app, but both happend to me already. I think in some CWM you can turn the MD5 check off.
I tend to make a backup nearly every week, so if one is bad it might not be so bad. I copy the backups every 3-4 weeks to my PC that I can delete the older ones on my SD card and after 3-4 month I delete them on my PC. Hey hey I make more backups on my phone than on my PC. :laugh:
Good idea, I think that is a great plan. Thanks

Just to let you know I did option C as Huexxx says, using the PRE IZS and smart flash, but still got same boot loop. Weird that it didn't work hey. Anyway I suppose I will just have to hope that Mackay can improve the camera. Thanks again for your help:fingers-crossed:

Custom roms cleans the app installed and other cache. Thats why i avoid flashing rom. Even if u make a detailed backup somethings are still lost.

Take a backup using CWM of your current ROM.
Install a new ROM (whichever u like)
Download Nandroid Manager.
Using Nandroid Manager u can restore all apps and data from CWM backup of old ROM...
Hit thanx if this helped.
