Ok, so I have a rooted Nexus One with cyanogen 6.0rc3 on it. I recently tried to put cyanogen 6.1 on it so I could upgrade to 7.0. Then, I see the common glitch where there is no market so I revert back to my old rom which I made a backup for(using ROM Manager). So here comes the hard part, when it restores my ROM, have no apps, no nothing which I downloaded, and I tried to restore again, because ROM Manager reinstalled, but I didn't get anything. Can some tell me how to get my data and all my stuff back, please?!?!?!?! If I don't get help by the end of the month, my service gets cut off, so I really need help!!!! Please help guys, thanks in advance, you guys are the bomb!!!!

What's that supposed to mean? You lose service because you don't have the data on your phone restored?
Are you using apps2sd?
I feel like you have no chance of restoring anything at the moment though.
If you have a custom recovery, just wipe and start again, or restore your backup... Make sure you have a gapps package that is compatible with your ROM...

All your apps will be in the market under 'my apps' and as long as you have synched with Google servers all your data should be retrieveable by re-synching.

You don't need to go to cm6.1 to get to cm7. Even on 6.1 you need to do a full wipe anyway to eliminate any potential problems.
Also did you happen to use CWM 3.0?

Not sure why you couldn't backup and restore....
Clockwork had problems for a few days after launch but has been fixed for awhile now.
its been working just fine for a while now.
Charging while the phone is off has also been fixed in 3.0.2.5
Mine has been working fine for awhile now.
3.0.2.5 is working on Tbolt?
Instead of going into clockwork it would put me in bootloader and recovery option just rebooted bootloader. Anyone else experience this?
nevermind.....Working just fine now

No problems here with 3.0.2.5. Try flashing an old one and then reflash 3.0.2.5.

I've run into a problem with Rom Manager. I had it installed on my Incredible before and it worked fine. Well now I've switched to the Thunderbolt and re-downloaded through the market. My problem is that it still shows Incredible rom's, not Thunderbolt rom's. Any ideas how to fix this?

I just had this problem...all you need to do is use a file manager and navigate to clockwork folder and delete the settings file in that folder. Might have to reinstall afterward.

quick question about rom manager
newbie question.
does rom manager back up the current kernel? if i flash a different kernel, will i be able to return it to the previous if i dont like it?
I figured we needed a thread to discuss the BootManager app.
First, big thumbs up to GFlam & Conap for this app! I used Conap's CELEB CM Roms on the Eris for a long time.
Now:
They have a User Manual on their site.
What does it do? You keep your rom on the phone, and you can add up to 4 more on your SD card. You use the app's menu to select which one you want to boot into next.
What is it? it is an apk you can get from the market. It lives on your phone. It doesn't mess with Clockwork and such.
What's the catch? There is something you have to pay attention to...It requires a connection to the market to verify it's authenticity. So, whenever you add a new rom, you need to connect it to the market...the trick: you need to flash gapps right after you flash a rom before you boot into it.
What If I forgot to flash gapps?!? No big deal. If you boot into a rom you installed that doesn't have the market, the BootManager app won't work, so you can't use it to boot back into another rom. They have a solution - boot into recovery and flash the "update.zip" located in the bootmanager>phonerom folder on your sd. Then your phone will reboot into your internal phone rom.
What's the catch, part 2? Some roms have custom scripts that run when they boot, so they don't play well, especially when installed on the SD card.
What else do I need to know? Rom installs take longer. After installing, the roms on the sd card do not lag. You can back up the roms that you install through the app.
This is a dream for people who want to play with nightlies or try a bunch of roms, but need their old-reliable come Monday morning. Check it out!

Disclaimer: I have no affliliation with Init 2 Win It. I just love this app.
I'll start with a question, too. I put BAMF3.0 rc 4.9 in an SD slot. When I boot in, everything works except Titanium Backup can't find root. Anyone else have this problem?

Interesting. I'm having a similar problem with MyBackup Pro. The app would request SU permission but then it never acknowledged that it had it. I also had BAMF 3.0 Rc 4.9 running off SD

I haven't tried the MIUI yet. It might be another with a custom boot script.
You could try to install it as the internal phoneROM and see if it works. If it doesn't you'll need to restore a nand backup.
Good luck, should you choose to accept this mission. This post will self-destruct in 3...2...1...
ok so maybe someone can help me. im trying to flash CM7 and i flashed it and forgot to flash the GAPPS thing before a reboot. i got back into my original rom and im ready to try it again. i have CM& ready to flash, but how do i flash GAPPS before the reboot? do i do the flash of GAPPS from within bootmanager, rom manager, or hboot? thanks!
Flash gapps through bootmanager just like the rom, in the same slot. Dont wipe anything.

Remember to rename the slot to help you remember what you have.

That's why I'm here.
disappointed that the synergy nightlies flashed to a slot put me in a boot loop. but was excited that all i had to do to fix it was flash the update.zip under bootmanager/phone
Maybe I'm missing something but where can I find the gapps zip/ every time I try to boot from the app, its telling me either no Rom installed or no image found
I installed all 3 versions of the recently leaked GB ROM using bootmanager and interesting NONE of them will boot up. Best I can tell from adb logcat is that the ROM does a memory test and the wrong memory type is returned causing a boot loop at that point.
Smells like a bit of copy protection testing going on.
Yea something's not working right with the app... I can't get any Rom to install.....

A lot of the Sense roms fail. I have Monolith running fine.
Hey there, just wondering of anyone else is having the problem of Sd card space going into limbo if the ROM install doesn't go well (i'm talking the install or back up glitches and doesn't finish, not it actually finishing and getting a boot loop. I've tried wiping cache/dalvik cache, all the cleaning functions within the app. Deleting the slots and wiping the slots didn't work either. Like I said it seems to be in limbo, and don't feel like moving all my data off my card and reformatting every time this occurs. Any ideas?
Hey guys,
I love this app. I also had some problems but now I have Gingeritis as my phoneRom and switch between SHIFTS3NS3 and BAMF which are all gb roms.
The trick I found was that if it doesn't load the first time keep trying, it took me about two tries to load SHIFTS3NS3 and about 3 for bamf. Make sure you use ext2.
Also make sure your phone stays awake.
If you have an issue email the Devs they responded to me with in 10 min of the email.
Great app

So this is just a question as I was browsing through the rom manager program I noticed the HTC Holiday is now listed in their devices.
As I have been researching this phone I believe the phone was referred to as the HTC Holiday
Basically my question is, Is this the device to select or is it referring to an OEM or pre release handset or is it the same as the AT&T Vivid.
I hope that made sense, if not please let me know and I will do my best to make my question more clear.

It is the same phone but I don't know that anyone has used ROM Manager with it. I never used it on any of my other phones because I found it too buggy.
This is the first I have heard of it being listed on there.

I believe it is added as of today, I personally have loved rom manager though I understand your reasons for not liking it. I just want to confirm it is comparable with the AT&T device before putting it on and flashing what ever version of clockwork recovery it has to offer.... (I bought my phone at an early upgrade price so $350 makes me quite a bit cautious with it....)
I just loaded the recovery labeled holiday and you get stuck at the HTC boot screen. Going back to the recovery from the sticky. A later update might fix it.

It's working for me
I have the Vivid and downloaded Rom Manager on a whim. Saw the Holiday, selected it. Tried to backup the Att rom, failed - needed cwm installed. Chose option to let RM flash CWM. The version it put on caused RM to puke when attempting to backup. Flashed CWM v5.0.2.7 from PC. Rebooted and mysteriously lost root. Had to pull the battery a few times during all this.
Rerooted using HTCSupertool, and RM has worked just fine since.
So some flakes, but when ironed out seems OK.
I did a nand backup and a restore just to be sure I could get back and both operations completed without error.
Waiting to get full charge on the phone then will flash first custom rom.

So I was trying to backup my current ROM on my LG Thrill 4G (rooted) right using ROM Manager?
I click ok to saving it then click allow to superuser and then it did a freaking factory reset instead of backing up WTF!? I downloaded ROM manager again and tried restoring it but there was no existence of the backup that I did if it was even completed. So wtf to ROM Manager, worst app ever -.-
If anyone has any suggestions how I recover all my stuff back by ROM manager (Cause I don't want to redownload all those apps) feel free to leave a comment here. If anyone else experienced this comment here. Just wtf, so pissed off right now.

Don't use rom manager use the cwm thread in the o3d forums
sent from my acidhazard thrill
I flashed CWM Recovery touch on to my Thrill using that forum thread and it worked ingeniously. I boot into CWMR and do my backups in there and I also do my data wipe/dalvik wipe there.
Much easier then using an actual app like Rom Manager or Rom Toolbox.
Unfortunately, you can not get back what happened. You're going to have to start all over from scratch.
Noob question
Is there any point in having Rom Manager on the LG Thrill? The only thing I can think of is using the paid feature to get notifications about rom updates, but not sure if that would work.

Not in my opinion. Just flash a ROM/etc. from CWMR.
I've used rom manager to install both CWM Recovery and the touch version with no problems at all. I also use the app to reboot into CWM Recovery rather than holding the buttons, but I've never used it to create a back up or flash a rom.
