You could try to copy all the apps you've installed from /data/apps
But you have to install them again one by one
Use es explorer

[Q]Returning back to the LGOB Stock ROM [Q]

Hey guys, I've seen a few threads about this but its not really answering my question properly so I hope one of you can...
I am currently on the NOVA ROM V8 and I want to return back to the LG Stock ROM, what is the easiest and safest way to do this?
Thanks,
TomByrne94
By the kdz method. Look over at the Optimus Black development section for the UPK thread, it has everything you need.
You will lose your apps though, unless you back them up with apps like titanium backup

Any chance you can provide a link? Theres a thanks in it for you!
Is UPK = Update Kit? If so just say.
Could I not just do a factory reset?

No. You must flash a stock firmware.

[Q] Need gingerbread stock mms.apk

Hi guys! can anyone tell me where I can find stock LG 2X 2.3 mms.apk? I searched all over the forum but I found only the Froyo version.
Could this be achieved by downloading a Gingerbread ROM from the Dev section and simply opening the .zip folder and removing the .apk from the ROM package?
Iv looked in this location before for other apps but never taken any files out so not sure if this will work this easily??
I‘ll try as soon as possible, can I rely on your help here?
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
No, I dont know if this method works as I have never attempted this before.
I also havent seen it mentioned anyone on here that, that method is possible. To be honest though, as long as youve made a backup through CWM then if anything goes wrong just restore the backup. Also if its only an .apk file and he fails to installed the phone will stop the process so nothing will happen.
What i have just said are only thoughts which havent been tried or tested.
Here you are my friend
Thanks mate!!!

Sorry, it doesn‘t work! I‘ve disinstalled messages app with titanium backup but installing your file “Application not installed“ is your 2.3.7?
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
No,it's 2.3.4
Try this one
Nothing.... I deleted old mms app with TB but on new install it told me if I want to replace some files, so I think I‘m doing something wrong, I don‘t know how to delete totally all mms system files

ClockworkMod Recovery

I am installing it, but the progress bar hasn't moved for a few mins, in fact it's not even filled up at all. I have used this before on the same phone and it flew, but I had to factory reset (kids messed up the phone) and now it just sits here. Not sure what else to do, any ideas?
Yes I cleared cache facory reset before installation.
if you are installing from recovery then install it from Odin it shall work

CWM
:angel:Hey Guys,
I installed CWM 5.2.7 in my galaxy pop 2.3.6
i tried to make a backup file with Nandroid (cwm)
after backing up process is finished i only see 2 files in my sdcard
1. Boot.img
2. Recovery.img
size of both are only 8 MB
is backup is done properly ?? 0_o
i mean gingerbread file is approx 90 MB
and Nandroid give me 2 files of 8 MB each? what about installed/downloaded apps ?
what if i restore from this backup?
would all apps came back??
plz reply guys:angel::angel:
I think you are ruining stock Samsung firmware
and it cannot be backed up
Stock firmware ? U mean official firmware ?
If this is what u mean then Yes, im using it and i have CWM 5.2.7
i tried nandroid backup and it gives me what i mentioned above .
And what is the point of backing up if u cannot backup on official firmware along with all downloaded app?
I thought Nandroid give me a full backup image which shall contain all settings and apps . In short, just the way it is right now!
And all i need to do a flash restore through this CWM thing....

No, Official Firmware can't backed up cause incompatible settings with NANDROID.
Okay,
Thnx

But i really want to backup my gingerbread along with all apps

When i open CWM in my galaxy pop and trying to backing up It shows some error..
E:\recovery log cannt found ....something like that

Dude if it's can it CANT so don't bother us ! Do it yourself ! Galaxy Y and Mini stands for different way !
Of course i'm Galaxy Mini user, maybe you just too lazy to read people signature. Most similiar ROM is emanoN v6 and Chocobread (almost all release is same), or GingerMod 3.0
Thnx for custom roms
And sorry if my req. Or questions annoys u guys
Im here for backup problem solution, till didnt got it
Sent from my GT-S5570 using XDA Premium App

So backup not possible for my mini?
My galaxy pop was orignally came with foryo 2.1
I updated via odin to 2.3.4 gingerbread and then 2.3.6
Now i wanna use cwm and backup my 2.3.6 along with apps .....
Help guys!!

use titanium backup
or create a recovery yourself
E: cannot mount/cache/recovery/command
E: cannot mount/cache/recovery/log
E: cannot open/cache/recovery/log
These error showing when i reboot in recovery mode!
And will titanium make image of my current firmware? Or i have to install apps one by one ?
If i have to install individually im doing it ! Its time consuming and annoying
(Setting up every thing every time i flash with custom roms )
I need nandroid

you can only backup stock roms with stock recovery... once you're flashed a custom rom then CWM will work.

Root v20q

Hello,
first of all I used the search and read many different threads! Anyway I couldn't find the answer to my questions. I only got more confused as I already am
I want to use the Zeus rom v6.39! I don't have root or anything. Now my question: I have v20q and want to know if I can do it as described with v20o or v20n and also use the rom?
If possible you could post the links to detailed how tos because I'm new to all that root and rom stuff:angel:
Hy luke. I have the same question and intrests about roms and root for the lgob.
I think that we could make a downgrade with smartflash to the v10a version, root it with gingerbreak and than we can install every rom that we want.
One problem: i don't know if a downgrade works with the smartflash tool and v20q. I recently asked the dev and post a question in the right thread.
Hope that we success together

1: Flash back to v10A v.i.a Smartflash tool
2: Root with gingerbreak
3. Download ROM Manager
4. Flash CWM
5. Reboot into recovery
6. Install ROM
Before Installing, Wipe data/Factory reset, Wipe cache & wipe dalvik cache --> Advanced-->Wipe Dalvik Cache

Hey guys,
follow this advice to install a rooted GB on the OB. This works 100%, I have done this quite a lot of times on different OB versions (also coming from a newer base, e.g. V20n).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23833005
After this, you are rooted V20o and have CWM. If you want to install a custom rom afterwards, think about putting the rom on your SD card before doing the procedure above. With this way you will save some time...
Thanks
Hi, thanks. I'll try your soultions.
Hope that erverything works fine.
greetings

Ok thx guys! If you tell me where I can hit the thx button I will do so...
Is there any method to save my data and apps effectively? And how exactly do I put on the rom after I gained root?
"3. Download Superuser.zip and copy it in root of your SD-cart!! DO NOT EXTRACT!!" does that mean I need to have root already when I copy it on my SD cart?
The app appadmin (don't know if it is still available in the store) help you to backup all your apps.
Your contacts and phonebook can be easily synct with your google account. (Phonebook_settings_export contacts)
You can backup your sms with 'backup&restore' from the market.
No, you don't need root to put the superuser apk to your sd card. That means maybe you can creat a folder called "root" with the superuser apk in there.
Can you please tell us if you managed it to get root?

I still have a question
I do have zeus v6.39 now! but it doesn't look exactly like the pictures. e.g. the status bar looks like the same old android bar and not like its supposed to with zeus...
any suggestions?
Sure that you installed zeus rom? Pls look at phone settings_phoneinformations_last entries(here should you read zeus kernel or version number.
Are you on the zeus rom?

yes it says zeus 6.39 I also don't have a bar to slide down... phone app looks the same as well.
Hm maybe you sould reflash the rom. Don't forget to make a data/factory reset in the cwm recovery. You also sould before installing the rom clear devlik and cache. Hope it works

It worked. My problem was that I only installed the update and not the v6.3 rom
But now I do have a last problem:angel: My GPS is not working at all.

[Q]Restoring via CWM from GB to ICS

Hey guys I'm right now on an cm7.2 rom and I'm going to shift to waylands cm 9. I made a nandroid backup on my cm7. Now when I restore the backup on my cm9, will I face any consequences as I restored a CM7.2 backup or will I not face any problems? I basically just want to restore my apps. Titanium backup is too tiring for me.
Thanks!
