-------------------------
I already root my phone. XLA4 CF-Root Kernel.
Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my english.
Im not used to speak this way.
Apologies!

1. you will lose your use application(you have installed manually), you will lose settings(account, contacts, msgs, desktop setting etc), in sort you will have note as it came at time of purchase(accept your ROM will remain LA4 is it is). but you won't lose Root/CWM.
2.go to setting - privacy - reset phone
3.Mobile Odin Pro can b used without Ext SD card.

1 more question.
Do i need to dowgrade again my version to install the custom rom?

No, you already have Root + CWM
just install Mobile Odin Pro from Market, as you dont have Ext SD card.

Just to be sure.
Mobile Odin Pro can recognize Zip files right?
Im not used to install custom rom because the files are separated not like the
XLA4 i got. .MD5.

Ya mobile odin can read zip file

In full wiping the phone. Do i need to check the FORMAT USB STORAGE?

Ya before this, when you have updated to LA4, you may have keep option to push Mobile Odin pro, in everroot option, thats Y it pushed as sytem file. and system files dont get erase in reset phone.
I think if your custom ROM has flashable zip, then only CWM will work, there is no need to have ext Card to flash a zip file. select flash update in CWM select your file n it shud b work

1. Install Rom Manager, and from there flash ClockworkMod Recovery.
Enter ClockworkMod recovery. (reboot in recovery, or boot while holding power + volume down button) In ClockworkMod recovery select backup/restore and then backup (you can navigate using the volume buttons and power button)
2. Pretty much the same as 1. A nandroid backup (recovery backup) backups everything. But, if you only want a backup of your apps and data you could always use Titanium Backup.
3. With My Backup you can backup your contacts etc.
4. Download the rom onto your SD card. The rom will be in zip format, no need to unpack it.
From there boot into recovery, select the options:
factory reset/wipe data (root will not be erased)
Wipe cache
Advanced --> wipe dalvik
And then select the option install zip from SD card and choose the right SD card. (internal or external)

1. How do I save my stock rom (2.3.4)?
To save your stock rom you need Rom Manager. Once you have installed Rom Manager you must "Flash ClockworkMod recovery. Once you have done that, you must swithch your phone off. Once it is off, press and hold the volume up (+) and down (-) button while holding the power button. Do this for about 10 seconds and it will boot into ClockworkMod recovery. Once in there go to "backup and restore" and then "backup" Now after that you will have a nandroid backup.
2. How do I backup all my apps and data?
To backup all your apps and data use Titanium Backup . Once you have installed Titanium Backup, go to "backup/restore" push the options key on your phone and then press"Batch". Now select "Backup all user apps/system data".
3. How do I backup my sms , contacts etc ?
Use MyPhoneExplorer Client. You need to also install the software on your computer. Once you have done that. Open it on your phone and connect your phone to your pc. Then open the software on your computer and click sync.
4. How do I put the new rom ?
Oce you have got ClockworkMod recovery installed you can flash a new rom.
Do a full wipe in recovery mode (wipe data, cache, dalvik) but you can always restore your data with titanium backup. What you also could do in case everything goes wrong (I highly doubt it) is to make a total rom backup which you would have done if you did the back up like I said in question 1. You can also press "backup rom" in Rom Manager. In my signature there is a "rom" and "kernel" which I use. You could try that if you want.
Good Luck

No, it depends on what rom you using. You would have to change the partitions back.

Yes, you need to flash a backtoext3 converter (try this) before restoring your original backup, as CM7 uses ext4 for the system-partition.
The backup includes everything you need: the boot-image including kernel (boot-partition) the firmware/OS (system-partition), user-apps, settings and data (data-partition). The only iffy part may be apps installed on the SD-card. To be absolutely sure move all apps to internal storage before backup. (This step is more than likely not needed, but it's good practice to have a complete backup and not have files dangling here and there.)
As for downloaded game-data, unless you format your sd-card (or move or delete the data in any way), the data will still be there when you come back to CM7 (if you do).
First press VOLUME DOWN and then POWER button altogether. You will enter RECOVERY MODE. On this mode, wipe all data (data, cache, dalvik, etc). There are 3 wipe data menus, take them all.
After wipe data success you should have stock rom working
Good Luck

[Q] Help with restoring

I have a backup of my phone made with xRecovery (system,data,cache.img), I put them in xRecovery folder on my SD card but when I try to restore it with xRecovery option on ClockworkMod it says "Couldn't open directory. No files found"
Please help

If the files are in the folder, maybe try to recover them using Xrecovery instead of CWM?
Sent from me to you

How do I replace Clockworkmod back with xRecovery when my phone boots?

I'm pretty sure there's tutorial abt that. I'm using the app so i can't search for it... try searching. I'll try and look for that thread as well.
Sent from me to you

copy paste your backup data to CWM folder\backup if you want to restore from CWM
as well as xrecovery

Use "X8toolbox" to install dual recoveries. i.e you get both CWM and Xrecovery.
You can NOT use Xrecovery to restore backups made from CWM and vica-versa.

[Q]Queries about flashing ROM

Hello I am newbie here.I know there is a thread for how to instal CWM recovery & how to flash custom roms, but I find that method very confusing . I have upgraded my phone to Gingerbead 2.3.6 using ODIN player (Build number:- DDKQ8). I have already rooted my phone using that zip file method. Now I want to install CWM recovery v5.0.2.6. Here are my questions.
1. Do I need to install CWM recovery v 4.0.0.9 first & then need to update it to 5.0.2.6 ? If so, how to do that?
2. After installing CWM, I want to backup my current OS,which is an official GB 2.3.6 update provided by Samsung for my country.How to backup it?
3.I still use 2GB sd card,so how much space is needed in my sd as well as internal memory while installing custom rom?
4.After installing new rom will my data stored in sd card (app backup files,music files,pictures etc.) get erased?
5.Please suggest me a good custom rom which has:- great battery backup,good interface, exciting features, fast response etc.)
Thanks in advance!

WellCome..
1) No, you can directly install 5.0.2.6..
2) In recovery You will get options for backup and restore..this will take the backup of your current rom and you can restore at any time through it..
3) No need to make any free space..if you are not using any ext partition..
4) Not At all..it wont touch your sd card data..
5) It depends on You,Which Rom you like..read their thread for more info of the rom..

Sorry for asking u again, I am going to flash Apocalypse final 9.7.2012 ROMhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1700749 , but I have few questions.The installation procedure is as follows:-
Installation Procedure - Step 1 (rom)
1. boot into CWM5 Recovery
2. wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik
3. format cache/data/system/sd-ext
4. MOUNT DATA
5. flash APOCALYPSE-17.06.12
5. reboot and complete the setup wizard
What is mount data? I can't see that option in CWM 5 or is it suppossed to be mount/data ?
also it's a barebone ROM, so from where i can find essential apps like sms, mms, camera? also does bareback ROM contain google apps like gmail,gmaps,navigation etc. ?
Thanks in advance!

[Q] official v20 zip

I wonder if there is any way to find the official v20 euro open in zip file in order to flash it wherever I am via cwm without using a computer .thanks in advance

You can clean install v20 and back up with cwm. Firmwares come in kdz.

and then? i will make a wipe and after that i will backup from sd and thats all?

You should backup from sd first. If you are having any games, use titanium backup to backup and then backup using astro or file expert the apk and data file (obb file). You can install the game using apk and data file and then restore titanium backup to resume the game where you left. If you do install from LGFlashTool, it will format the phone. Just simple cwm backup after factory reset. I think it is better to install from pc than cwm. I hope you understand.
