[Q] Rom Manager made bad back up image...HELP PLEASE!!!!

I rooted my hero using the 1 click root from the market. I then used rom manager to make a back up image, then flashed cyanogenmod 7.0.2 on it. There was no Market, my home button didnt work, and a few other quirks so I decided to go back to my original os. I clicked on the manage and restore in rom manager. It went thru the process and said restore complete. when it boots up it has overlayed images, and says "the application Settings(process.com.android.settings)has stopped unexpectedly.FC. As i go thru the set up, many of they options are greyed out and not accessable, then when i get to "finish setup" it FC's and says" the application Setup(process.com.htc.android.htcsetupwizard)has stopped unexpectedly. Then i get a black screen. Just wondering if I can get a good Back up image from someone to put on my sd card, then do a restore? I am pretty noob at all this, so any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Mmhmm...first, 1 click bad, second, rom manager...worse in the wrong hands...
Why don't you download the gapps and put it on the root of your sdcard and then flash it after the 7.0.2 and then you'll be ok I'm sure if you take a little time to figure out you may be the only person that can fix your issue. By that, what I mean is in the install steps I'd bet it mentions to install gapps and if it doesn't let me know and I'll get the op to add that step.
As for all your messed up permissions try running fix permissions in rom manager if you can get there.
~maybe I set it too high...

i tried that first but coulnt get it to work, so i downloaded the rom directly from rom manager. The only thing i can do on the phone now is thru clockworkMod recovery

You can do fix permission in cwm also, I think under advanced. Just whatever you do, do NOT format recovery or misc if those options are in your recovery.
If you're in recovery though you're in the right place to flash. It's just
Wipe data /factory reset
Advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
Back
Install zip from sdcard and choose the7.0.2 zip and then thesame thing with gapps.
Reboot system
Edit, you could also just try to restore again from cwm. I'm assuming it holds the backup.
~maybe I set it too high...

ok, im off to bed...i will try this in the morning and post my status, thanks for your help so far

Did you ever wipe between installations and flashes? I always play it safe and wipe boot, cache, data, system and dalvik cache when I am flashing different ROMs and when restoring. Try going back into recovery and wipe what I posted and then restore your backup.

I couldnt wait, I had to try it....YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so very much. I already had Rocksteady and Gapps downloaded on my comp, so i put those on the sd, followed your steps and BAMM! Works great! I can not thank you enough!

[Q] Insufficient space on device. Can't install any app

Hi fellow blackers,
My optimus black was on Nova Rom 2.2 v8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161015
And I flashed it to v20n:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441901
I followed the instructions specifically these two before proceeding with the zip install.
1. Wipe Data/Cache (if not wiped, might cause problem)
2. Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache (same as data/cache, might cause problem)
After flashing, I can't seem to install any app from Market. It says that I have insufficient space on device.
So did some searching (google and here on XDA):
Here are their suggestions:
1. Install Marketfix - unfortunately, I can't install this because it is already saying I have insufficient space.
2. Clear market cache - after clearing (cache and data), I still says insufficient space
3. Uninstall market update - Going to settings - Application - manage application then selecting Market, I don't see any uninstall button. Just Force close, cancel and clear cache, clear data..
4. Finally I saw knzo's supposedly fix for this: Something to do with file system (nova is on EXT4 while stock is on EXT3)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212370&highlight=insufficient
I wasn't able to try option 1 because the file was removed on all file sharing sites.
Options 2 and 3 - restore factory settings isn't working. The phone is not doing anything after I click Erase everything. It just hangs
Any other suggestions?

Try reflash ROM with wipe all data and cache in CWM including dalvik cash and formating partitions in "mounts&storage".
Or this!

Try wipe cache and dalvik cache...worked for me

hmm pardon me, but how do I boot into recovery? I tried powering the device on while holding volume down (also tried up and G button) but it didnt reboot into recovery.

Since I can;t install anything (rom manager etc.), I think I needed to do what you advised.
I was able to flash the stock then started up from there

Ginger DX v31 problems

I have some problems on GDX v31 on stock kernel
1.Unable to copy\move x8oc.ko in system/lib/modules error: "failed to copy x8oc.ko" or "failed to move x8oc.ko"
Unable to overclock
2.When I open Google Play it asks me fdi I want to enetr e-mail adress and no matter what I press(yes or no) it kicks me out of the program and it closes
i think you understand my problems

First copy your modules to root "/" and set permissions by long clicking that module and check everything.
and move that modules to "/system/lib/modules" and reboot! Hope it solved!
If you can't, just full wipe
Full wipe means (in CWM)
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Advanced > Wipe dalvik-cache
Advanced > Wipe battery stats
Mounts and storage > Format /system
and Flash the rom again!
Hope it solved

1. You need to have root permission with your file manager, so check if your file manager provides this. Another way to do it is through adb comands.
2.Have you flashed gapps? If yes try to reflash them.

Issue with installation of rom with temporary cwm recovery by shaaan

I am having issues with the installation of a Custom ROM on my Galaxy S Advance.
I have done it before, and it went smoothly. But later I reverted back to official one.
Now I am doing it again. But having a few problems with the CWM recovery (v6.0.2.8). I am having an old file which was probably uploaded by Shaaan.
The file name is "update.zip".
I tried downloading the new file from one of his new threads, but that download infected my laptop with a large number of viruses, malwares and adwares that were on the host site. So I am using the old file itself.
So the issue is, I used the "root.zip" file to root my phone and it was done successfully as the Root Checker app also verified the root.
Later, I booted using the CWM Recovery.
Did the Wipe Data/ Fatory Reset.
Did Wipe Cache Data.
Did Wipe Dalvic Cache.
Then I moved to Installation of ROM.
When I select the option, "CHOOSE ZIP FROM SDCARD", there comes an error saying...
"E: Can't Mount /sdcard/"
I browsed the internet and found a solution that said CHANGING THE FILE SYSTEM OF THE SDCARD. So I did that too. Tried with NTFS as well as FAT32, but nothing happened.
I even tried to install by placing the ROM files in Internal Memory since they are not even getting cleaned after Wipe Data operation. But that too resulted in negative.
This is happening every time. By now, I have installed the official firmware 4 times, so as to start the process afresh, but no luck.
The ROM files are also not corrupted, as I have used them earlier.
Here are the images of the issue I am encountering. (Please tell how to upload images, as all that I can see is an option to add URL and not an image, also an error like posting 10 posts)
EXPECTING A SOLUTION TO IT ASAP, as the Official Jellybean version has again started to lag too much.

several default apps "stopped working"

Hi guys
heres what happened
I flash my device via spf flash tool to stock MM
then flash TWRP_boot_root_s228 then
copy CM13-2016-09-26 build & tron kernel
then I put my device via recovery mode then
flash the cm13 restarted all good then
flashed the tron kernel, all good again
here's the tricky part:
after I install facebook via google play store as soon as it as it is finished installing. there's several apps that stopped working like trebuchet, package installer, calculator and several more and when I check the settings several apps contains 0 bytes, none whatsoever. what am I doing wrong, I have been flashing several times ends up same result.
btw I wipe dalvik cache, system,data,cache,internal storage before flashing.
pls help me guys

There is no need of wiping internal storage
And
The problem you are facing can be solved by changing the rom
Simply download a random Custom Rom and gapps then flash them through your recovery -> this time just wipe dalvik, cache, system and data only.
I faced same problem once and i found solution through this step
