Hi guys can some one please help me..
I bought my Galaxy ace last week with gingerbread 2.3.4 (India) in it. i had taken backup using CWM 4. then i updated to CWM5 and installed " CyanogenMod 7.1-cooper-KANG-RC1 Android 2.3.7 (upd: 12.10.2011)" on my phone. i almost liked this ROm but this ROm eats up my battery very fast.. so i decided to roll back to my official ROM which i had backed up. but when i restore the phone it gets stuck in Galaxy ace screen.
Please help me .. how do i restore my backup.
there were no errors during the backup nor during the restore..
Please help..!!
in cwm do a full wipe and then try to restore backup --> never tried this but somewhere read it works...
if this doesn't work then flash ddkq6 firmware from sammobile.com with odin.. install cwn and rollback backup
try the first one ... second one surely will do it

it has been asked many times ...search forum ..... it is not restoring because cm 7 uses ext format..and stock uses .rfs.... so u have to convert .ext to .rfs before restoring ... this can be done with ext manager ...( comes with cf-root)
Press thanks if i helped.
Wait. Whatever you do, Making a nandroid backup of your stock rom won't work, it tends to create a md5 file mismatch, a few times, and don't ask me how.
Well, I hate to break it to you, but, just use ODIN all over again,load a stock rom, and things should be as light as rain. But then again, you'd revert to that crappy standard recovery, so flash that with cwm, once you're done ^_^
Ooh, and if I helped, click that shiny 'thanks' button, then.

well i don't think ext4 manager will work on cm roms even if they are running ketut's kernel as ext4manager checks the kernel you are using..... never tried it ..ketut might have made it to work on it but no one is gonna change fs to rfs on that kernel
hey i know the last option is to flash thru odin .. but is there any other way to restore it thru CWM.. please let me know..
and ya one more thing i m following this thread to falsh thru odin " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242925 " Please tell me whether is it correct and safe..

Hi @amitkhetan69...
Sorry to break it to you this way but you are not getting back to stock from custom rom without a full Odin re-flash of stock rom...
Have you tried @Jusada's IceCream Sunday2 (Extreme speed) rom...? Use this rom with a good script that has the ability to manage system resources (check my sig for scripts (V8.5 etc.)). These scripts give excellent battery managment along with many other top drawer tweaks...
There really is no need for you to go through the headache of returning to stock (unless your returning the phone for whatever reason).
FYI : You will need CWM5 to flash any CM7.2 rom... CWM4 will brick ya phone flashing 7.2 rom... "DONT DO IT" CWM5 only for 7.2 roms... I see that you have CWM5 but this could be just incidental to your situation hence my warning (in case you did'nt actually know)...
Stay Breezy n Be Lucky...
Pe"ACE"...

Bro, this is because CM7.2 RC1 that you are using is having an ex4 filesystem where stock roms have rfs filesystem. In order to resove this problem, ive made a guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606336
Only go uptill STEP 3, if you wish to retain your custom recovery and root.

ext4manager works perfectly. i restored from cm7.2 rc1 by vo-1 to stock using my nandroid backup. (ofcourse, fist converted the file partition using ex43manager )
When you restore a backup with cwm do you get all your apps back?
And what exactly does it restore?
The only time i tried the restore function was when i flashed ics but it was a gb backup and i got an error .so help me please
If u want to restore a gb. backup when on ics, u need to flash gb. Kernel. then u reboot directly into recovery(advanced/reboot recovery) and restore your backup.
And yes all your apps and settings will also be restored.
thank you..putting a gb kernel wont brake the phone?
No, bootloader on i9000 ics roms is ginger. And you don't have to wipe anything.
if u know witch ginger kernel u were running,flash that kernel and restore your backup
But DON'T boot up your phone. Just reboot into recovery from recovery and then restore your backup from the ginger kernel.

Can you backup custom roms? Because im having trouble.
Yesterday i updated from dark knight v3 rom to v5.5 and backed up the rom through recovery mode because rom manager wouldnt work (kept getting the android guy on its back with an exclamation mark)
I decided to go back to v3. I booted into recovery, wiped date/cache then restored my backup rom. When it finished, it stuck at the boot animation for 30 minutes. I pulled the battery and tried to boot into recovery but it just kept rebooting until i took my fingers off the up+power the proceeded to animatiin where it would just hang..... did i do something wrong?

I returned to Gingerbread from CM9 with stock safe team overcome files... My tab works correctly, but I can't install Firefox...
I checked in sammobile to find official firmware... I find 2 file:
Italy (TIM) 2012 January 2.3.6 P1000AIJQ1 P1000TIMJQ1
Italy 2011 May 2.3.3 P1000XXJQ1 P1000OXAJQ1
I haven't TIM version, so I think I must install 2.3.3... Is it correct??? Can I istall 2.3.6 and remove all TIM brand???
How to install this firmware???
Thank
All of that for Firefox?
Just download the apk and install it,

Agreed. Sorry to ask, but you successfully flash CM9, and successfully restocked back to GB-Stock-safe -- that's not an easy task.
But you can't get firefox running? (I'll try to download firefox with ICS AOKP and with 2.3.3. open asia version my friend has and let you know).
GB-Stock-safe IS 2.3.3 JQ1, so there shouldn't be much difference 'Italy 2011 May 2.3.3 P1000XXJQ1 P1000OXAJQ1'
So if you can't get it running on GB-Stock-safe, you may not be able to get it running on P1000XXJQ1 as well.
EDIT: Firefox is still on BETA while android is already on jellybean??? -- wow you are really a loyal fan of Firefox.
Firefox on 2.3.3 and CM9, downloaded from google play, started up nicely. --If you restore from titanium backup, you might want to redownload from google play store.
If you move from CM9 to gingerbread, many apps restored from titanium backup wouldn't be able to start correctly.
With GB from team overcome I can't download and install firefox from play store, because my version isn't supported... But with original firmware I downloaded it correctly... Why? Maybe team overcome modified some stuff...
I liked chrome in CM9, but with 2.3.3 I can't install it unfortunately...

Hey, even i shifted from cm9 to gingerbread with lot of pitfalls and difficulties.. now i restored my apps using titanium backup.. whenever i open my menu i.e my app drawer the restored apps are not displayed... when i exit and open the menu again they are displayed... what is wrong with my tab ?
now i have a problem..
i rooted my tab using cfroot which installed the clockworkmod version 3.0, then i made a backup of my stock rom i.e gingerbread 2.3.3 using the nandroid backup method i.e going into the recovery mode and manually making a backup..
then later on i flashed cm9 onto the tab. since i was not so pleased by it i thought of flashing back to the stock rom using the recover option in the recovery mode..
when chose that option,everything went wrong.. Note , i did not wipe any cache, or user data or dalvik cache.
whenever i tried to boot my tab, it was stuck at the boot screen..
now i have installed a stock rom of some other country and have both the backup i.e backup of stock rom and cm9 as well...
My question is that whether i would be able to get back my backed up stock rom and how ??
Secondly, how to perform a complete backup of rom and flash back to it in any case ?
Please help.. !!
thanks in advance..
3 facts, that I know
- you cannot use Titanium Backup to restore to different OS, ( from ICS to GB was what you did), it is meant for same OS version
- to return to non MTD rom from CM9 MTD, a full restock is required, that means flashing GB from with pit file and repartition checked,
- Overcome recovery can't take reliable nandroid backup. CM9 one is OK. I never tried cfroot one.

As i said that I rooted my gt-p1000 using cfroot. it installed clockworkmod v3.0. I took a backup of my stock rom. Then later on I restored the stock rom from the recovery mode.
everything went fine, and the restore was complete. but when my tab started to boot, it was stuck at the boot screen.
Later on i performed a full flash using the odin method.. repartitioning...
Then i performed restoring the stock rom again which i had backed up before.. just this time i wiped user data/factory reset and wipe cache partition and this time the restoring worked fine..
my question is that.. i saw videos on youtube about getting a backup using the clockworkmod. they went in the mounts and storage section and wiped data,system and dalvik cache whereas i just wiped user data and cache partition from the main menu... What difference did it make ?? Did i did something wrong..
Note: i have restored my original stock rom which is working fine.

help me..
sorry for my english,
I am upgrading from gb to jb(ultimate rom)
but in jb there is no root. now i want to go back to gb.
I have nandroid backup in gb, before I root it using dr.Ketan's guide.
using this:
CF-Root-SGN_ZS_MUL_KK1-v5.0-CWM5
as I know to restore the nandroid, I need to use same cwm, because in ultimate rom using cwm6, but in gb I am using cwm5.
what I need to be help is I forgot the cwm5 version, please anybbody know the version?
the second things I confuse is, how do I root the ultimate jb rom?
thanks in advance..
*update:
i have read many post in xda and many user also face the same problem.
the conclusion I get it is the philz touch cwm6 that is making the error, the problem now is, there is new update philz touch but I cannot flash it, because when flashing they stuck before complete.
*update:
I am stuck in jb rom.
this is what I am going to do.
flash using dr ketan methode, using InitialCFRootFlasher, flash using usb to gb kernel(CF-Root-SGN_ZS_MUL_KK1-v5.0-CWM5). hope get the cwm5. then restore my gb nandroid backup(if still possible to boot to cwm5).
hope it is safe.this is my last bet.
maybe tomorrow I will do it.
thanks for the help..
I am stuck in cwm6 because cannot "unmounting system".
now, what i want to do first is restore nandroid backup, only this the question:
can I restore GB nandroid backup cwm5 from JB cwm6?
*update:
if cannot restore GB nandroid backup cwm5 from JB cwm6.
how do I install cwm5 without odin?, also cannot flash directly from cwm6 because stuck in cwm6 because cannot "unmounting system"
I am now in cwm6 jb ultimate rom, my backup is GB nandroid cwm5.
Just flash a stock gb rom via odin.. Get the rom in sammobile.com, start fresh its always the best option
Tapatalking on my n7000
That is a bit too many problems, just go back to stock GB using PC Odin, root and then flash whichever ROM you want.
as advised, charge your battery fully, get into download mode and flash a GB rom......after flash is successful and your mobile is ready for set -up, get into GB stock recovery and wipe data and cache....reboot into rom. root it by zergrush method or ask here how to....
dont play around with CF root kernels ( for ics ) for nandroid restore etc etc..... till your phone is completely stabilised.
thanks everybody...

Hi, I have a few questions. I have galaxy Ace, it is rooted, it runs 2.3.3 stock rom. It started laging a bit so I want to update the rom to 2.3.6.
My questions are:
1.It is rooted now,when I flash the new rom, stock 2.3.6 with odin,do I have to root it again or does it stay rooted?
2.Does updating with odin deletes all apps and data?
3.I have link2sd and second partition set up,I have a lot of apps on second partition,what happens with second partition when I update rom?

1. Yes, you'll need to root again after using Odin.
2. Yes, you'll lose all your data, apk, sms, etc
3. If you don't wipe your sd-ext partition you'll keep all your apk there (I didn't try it but Odin DOESN'T touch sdcard/sd-ext partition . I advise you to use Titanium Backup to save your data before flashing a new rom via Odin
Thank you kind sir
So the correct order of actions would be
1.Backup everything
2.flash stock 2.3.6 with odin
3.root it
4.restore backups
4.install link2sd and relink all the apps with sdcard/sd-ext partition
is that right?
Should I follow this tut for flashing?

If you'll install the rom via Odin, then don't need root at all. But if you'll install a custom rom via CWM, then you'll need root. After installing a rom via CWM, don't worry that if your phone would still be rooted. It would still be rooted. And yes, please don't use Rom manager. Its just not meant for Ace.
