Noob question: Does reflashing the rom rebuild the datadata-data/data simlink? Thanks.

Did you flash the datafix.zip?!?! Why would you do that it was for ICSSgS

Just installed chrome beta and was starting to run into memory issues. I was pondering flashing the alternate fix that was just posted in the CM9 thread. I wanted to be able to easily revert if it slowed down my phone. I haven't done anything yet.
Thanks

Don't do it if your on THS ICS, only ICSSGS. And if you flash it again it will rebuild the symlinks...

To answer your original question. Reflashing the rom will restore any symlink. But Demonwav's zip should auto restore, but keep in mind it was made for ICSSGS wich is different.

Hey guys I would like to try out the new perception, but I really like c5. Does anyone know if I can do a back up in cwm and flash perception, then come back and restore c5? I don't want to do anything that isn't tested yet with the gb bootloaders. Thanks ahead of time.

Are you trying to do it on ICS with CWM? CWM has problems with nandroid backups on official ICS roms.
If it is on ics roms, it's likely you're bricked, but without further info, no idea. And if it is under lpy or lpf, there is a work around if you're up to it but quite advanced.

ICS backup doesn't produce bricks, restore does.

Im on the lpf official but rooted. I tried doing nanroid backup using the "temporary" cwm credits to dr ketan but failed. I dont think im brick coz my phone functions as normal.

Are you using Voodoo OTA Root Keeper?
I heard from some Play Store comment that it might give problems in backups. Try disabling the root protect first if so.

Find post #2 or 3 on first line of my sign
Download any ROM(GB), preferably your region and flash using PC Odin
You may find force closes or stuck at boot, but nothing to worry. reboot in recovery and wipe cache and data.
Flash a GB rom from ur region and wipe data / dalvik and cache from recovery
thanks for the replies guys, is there any i should avoid causing the brick that affected so many people, or have all the at risk files been removed from xda forum ?

Avoid wipe / reset once you are on stock ICS kernel.
but the other guys said to wipe after i install the stick rom?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
He said you to wipe on gb rom, I advised you not to wipe on stock ics rom.
Got it?
Read post #2 what I did say
I have said same to wipe, but on gb rom only.

That was for stock Gingerbread rom, wipe on GB is safe but it is not safe on ICS. As long as you are on GB roms you can wipe without any issue. So best for you is to download stock Gingerbread firmware for your country from here and then flash it using pc odin, you will find instructions for using odin in same thread.
After flashing GB rom you may face some boot loop or other issue, so in that case just boot in stock recovery (vol up+home+power) and perform full wipe.

:laugh:hey just asking if I could directly install cm9 without reverting back to original ROM then installing overcome.
I'm currently using cm10 but the release of the stable ROM is kinda bit taking long so I think I'll just go back to cm9 first
plssss answer
No. Cm9 uses different MTD size. Restock is needed.

Huh. Interesting. What about if I go to CM10 from CM9? A new nightly build came out today. Do I need to restock?
Apparently the date is 20120922
If your cm9 is before that date, restock is needed.
