I am very new to this, so I am not sure what to looks for on the forum.
I generally followed instructions from Lifehacker and this forum, used androot to root my phone, done it after two days.. (finally figured out I had to downgrade my phone.. )
So now I'm rooted, I have super user access, and I have rom manager installed. Here are a couple of things I know I want to get to do:
- install froyo (as stable as possible)
- uninstall sprint crapware (the NFL, navigation and others.. who needs them)
- possibly overclocking a little by what I read, I have another battery and I'm willing to try and give overclock a "little" each time to see if it works.
Before I do anything (I backed up my current settings with rom manager), I wanted to post here and ask you guys what I should do first, and how do I restore things back to normal if something goes wrong?
Thanks a bunch!

Go to the development forum, you should find the latest Froyo builds out there (check my signature for the latest ;-)).

If you install CM, it will remove all apps anyways. If you want to know how to remove apps - there are threads all over the place for it.
Also, attached is a script I wrote to remove apps (apk). It's a very simple straightforward script. Here's what you do, create a subfolder (not needed) on your sdcard, copy the two files into the folder, update "Apps-to-remove,txt" with all the apks you want to remove (with the full path) and run the script through terminal or adb shell. This script is not needed, but just simplifies the job, that's all.

Goto http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756774, read through and use, as appropriate. If you use the latest build by Jaybob, you may not need any kernels from this thread, as the builds have the latest code.
Hope this helps.

To restore everything back to "Out-of-the-box", just run the official RUU from HTC/Sprint.
Thanks Andy.
Right now I'm going through Roms (I heard good things about Cyanogen but I can't download it because their registration page is messed up..) and I tried what comes for free with Rom Manager, which almost gave me a heart attack when the phone started... fortunately I read the instructions to restoring things so I was able to get back to my old rom (whew!!)
But now, for some reason, I don't have the market app on my phone! how am I to download rom manager...
Is it possible to chat with you or someone at least for a couple of minutes as I go through this, because at this rate I won't have my phone working well until tomorrow >.>
You need to install GAPPS, once you install a ROM.
I would highly recommend CM. The builds Jaybob has put together are based on CM code, take the latest (12/08) - it's stable. BTW, it's a mediafire link, so you should be good. I just downloaded the latest, y'day... works like a charm... (Thanks JayBob and Cm and everyone - can't say that enough).
The best way to install rom is:
1. Download copy ROM and gapps to your SDcard's root
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Wipe everything - Wipe/Factory reset, Wipe cache, Wipe Dalvik Cache
4. Install ROM from zip
5. Install Gapps from zip
6. Reboot - btw, the first reboot after a rom/gapps install takes a while, so don't be alarmed.
You can PM me, if needed.
I installed that last Rom via Rom Manager, which did it pretty much automatically.. so I didn't try to install a Rom via the SD card yet.
To make things worse, the phone does not recognized it's connected to a computer at all (there is no USB icon on my phone's notification bar) so I can restore it being to old sprint crap. No Market app, no way of installing anything or communicating with the phone, my backup, when I restore it, brings back the old HTC but without the market app and as I said, no USB support.
heeeeeelllllllllppppppppppppp
Ok,
I managed to restore things back to the old Sprint RUU. I noticed the SD card was *completely* out of room, which might have messed up my backups. I still don't know where these backups reside or how much room do they take, but making sure you have enough room on the SD card is important, as I think I have learned the hard way.
Important: the RUU detected my phone and installed *even without* the usb icon or my computer treating my phone as a "usb storage device". So resorting to this option, even though annoying (have to install and gain root access all over again), is helpful to have.
Now I am going to format my SD card, which doesn't have any important information, I don't think (my documents are all backed up anywhere and try and install the CM rom from a zip file, which I'm not sure how to do yet (people like me are used to have something like setup.exe, and everything works from there...) so I'm going to read and go step by step.
ROM installation is pretty simple, once you get your recovery going... just make sure you wipe everything, as I mentioned earlier to you...

Hi,
I want to install a new ROM without loosing any data and settings. I have made a Titanium backup.
As I now have only one SDCard, will ti be OK to copy the titanium directory to the PC, do the clean install, and copy ONLY the TB directory back to the SD, and do a restore?
Thanks for answers,

If the current ROM is any of the ff:
CM7 Stable (7.0, 7.1)
CM7 Nightly
Phiremod
CM7 MiRaGe KANG
AND the new ROM any of the above as well, you can just do the ff:
Put the new ROM's zip as well as any associated Kernel zips to the root of your microSD card (or anywhere really, doesn't matter. It's just so you can easily see and navigate to it)
Reboot to ClockWorkMod Recovery menu. Advisable if you have the latest CWM installed, which would be 3.2.0.1. (You can get the latest CWM through ROM Manager, which can be downloaded off the Market.)
Once you're there, go to Mounts & Storage.
Format System
Format Cache
Afterwards, go ahead and install your new ROM.
Once it boots up, you will still have all your apps even if you don't use TitaniumBackup since you did not format the "Data" partition.
All of the instructions above is if your install is in your NookColor's eMMC as opposed to running it off a microSD card.
Hope this helps.

Installing gapps again is part of installing a new ROM, which I forgot to mention. My bad. Just download gapps from ROM Manager, then flash it via recovery or via ROM Manager too.

Hi,
Now I am back to the latest 7.1 Nightly with everything working, had to install market.apk, than gmail.
The reason I do not want to loose data is, as I am not in US, because of some stupid Google policy, I had to sideload some apks like G+, currents, earth, maps, etc. and I do not want to fetch them again.
So my 2 questions are:
1- If I install gapps again, will I be able to keep these sideloaded apps?
2- Is it worth to move to 7.2 at all? (BTW 7.2 RC0 is around 70 MB, whereas the latest nightlies are all around 100 MB)
Why don't you move those .apk files to another folder, say, the eMMC.

The .apk file is more like the package, let's say, like a .zip file (in Windows), you can make 1001 one copies if you want. You can move it from drive C: to drive D if you want. You can move it to the external hdd if you want. You can store it on the cloud if you want.
Basically, you do whatever you want with it.
You might not understand what I meant, I guess.
Just store it (them) to another storage so you can access it (them) and reinstall later if you need.

I know what you mean, but if you look at the context I'm using, that piece of info is not helpful.
What I don't know is the Android system, where it keeps the applications, what happens when I install the system, how are apks affected etc.
For example in windows, you cannot just upgrade the system and expect every installed application to work.
The main point of the original post was trying to understand these.
Unless you want to become an OS developer, in this case an Android OS guru, then you need to learn and understand clearly the structure of it. If you are just a normal user or power user, why make your life harder digging into what and/or how the system and its associated files work???
Just like in Windows, all you need is the installation package (file), install it, it will install to the default directory, all you have to do next is run the executable file and let it run.
Next time, if you want to re-install, all you need is that "installation package". Why do you need to care what happen w/i those default installed folders such win/system32/xxxx or C:\Program Files\xxx?
Yes, sure, you can dig into it to understand more about, but why would you do that if you are just an user?
Back to your question, if I understand correctly, you want to REINSTALL those apps (if they are not coming back after install new ROM) and that's what I tell you.
Another note: unless you are intending installing the completely new custom ROM, /data need to be formatted, otherwise, no need to bother it.

First of all, according to my philosophy of life, knowledge does not make life harder in the long run.
Secondly, I really doubt copying an .apk file to a medium as you say makes it install automatically.
Thirdly, I want to know when an application is installed, is it contained in its own directory, or does it write something to somewhere like a registry or what, and also where do the former preferences stay, etc.
Hope I can make myself clear.

I leave this question to other Android gurus to help you.
Hello all,
I've had my TouchPad running CM10 for a while now, and every so often, when I try to execute another app, either from the app drawer, or the sharing/share to... menu, etc, the app (whatever it is) will force close and come up with:
Unfortunately, [insert app/process name here] has stopped.
The only workaround I have found for this is to close everything in the recent apps dialog/multitasking menu and then try and open the force closing app/process again. Sometimes, I can have 4 processes max open at once and the 5th one I try will fail, making me close 1 of the 4 and try again in order for it to work. Other times I can only have 1 process open and it gets to be such a pain that I will have to reboot, which fixes the problem, but only for a while.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and/or has a solution for it.
Thanks!

Alot. More than the 50 limit.
Recently I ran into the "Removed SD card" error and I think it was because of the new Gapps.
Might have to completely re-flash. :crying:
About:
Hey guys, I was doing some experiments with gapps and I found a way to save a little space in our devices. Yeah, I ripped some stuff from the zip in order to make it lightweight (mostly unused libs from our device, like front camera unlocking and that kind of stuff).
Notes:
- It works on every CM9 rom. No exceptions.
- I personally updated Play Store (4.0.27) and Genie Widget (1.3.11) to their latest versions, since those gapps were released on 29/04/12'
- The normal gapps zip
- Press thanks if you feel it.
How to install:
Just select zip, flash and wipe cache partition.
So...
If you have a question or you're just an giant n00b that doesn't know how to flash a zip, post down here. lol.
Download
Have a nice pootis. :good:
So if you already have the full gapps installed... You have to do a full wipe and flash this?
Maybe it'd be easier if you just made a list of all the files that one can delete, or even better, a script that deletes them.
Nope, this zip is meant to be used after a fresh CM9 install

Yeah, but can't you make a list of all the libraries and stuff you deleted? We could just delete them from the phone after installing regular gapps, right?
I'll try :good: I can't remember all the files I ripped, but I'll try...
Hello everybody. After spending hours trying to figure out what I could delete from the system to make room for Gapps on CM10, I even tried to resize partitions, I came to the conclusion that the Gapps will have to be stored elsewhere. So, I came up with a solution, by installing the apps to /data/Gapps and then symlinking the files to /system. So since there are so many people trying to get Goggle Now on CM9, I figured I would make modified Gapps zips for both CM9 and CM10.
These are complete Gapp packages, they actually free up space on the /system partition, and are completely functional. Most of the files are installed to data/Gapps, this way the devs will not have to worry about trimming the ROMs, except to fit on the partition.
I'm sure this will help a bunch of other devices that have smaller system partitions also.
Note: Facelock requires you to log in to an account, to even show up in lockscreen options.
I don't think Google should have any issues with this as I haven't changed any files that where in the zip just moved them around and modified the updater-script.
Installation for fresh install:
1. Boot to your favorite custom recovery
2. Factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache
3. Flash CM9/CM10
4. Flash these Gapps
5. Reboot
Installation for previous install:
If you are already setup , you will need to wipe the cache and reinstall the ROM to format system to remove any Gapps already installed. As long as you don't wipe data/factory reset you should be right back where you started.

GNow offline for ICS still requires about 60mb. So it will depend on the ROM. But, it works with our Triumph ICS ROMs. And they should be almost identical, as far as I've seen. I use GNow offline with my PA ICS ROM, with no issues. I haven't spent much time on any of the X6 ROMs, as we can't use the newer kernel and still use our phone service.
Let me know how it goes.

Thanks, our partitions can not be repartitioned/resized, I tried everything except deleting the extended partition(4) that holds 5 - 17. That is why I made these.
This is the breakdown of the partitions on our phone:
BSydz said:
So, this is what I have found so far about the partitions on the Triumph, I can't guarantee that this is all correct, but if anybody has any input feel free to chime in.
WARNING, THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BELOW IS SPECULATIVE AND COMES WITH NO WARRANTY. IF YOU MESS WITH THIS STUFF, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DAMAGE YOUR PHONE.
Partitions:
1 (FAT) Mobile Partition containing image folder, which is very well documented around the forums.
2 (crypt/QNX4.x) Primary Boot Loader (PBL) I believe that this is what the SOC uses to boot.
3 (crypt) Secondary Boot Loader I believe this is where the hardware layout is contained, as it changes button configuration and was key to getting back to normal after I flashed the wrong nb0. It is linked to the mobile partition, as the phone will not boot properly without the correct amss.mbn
4 (extended) Just an extended partition containing partitions 5 - 17.
5 (Boot) This is where the boot img is extracted.
6 (OnTrack DM) I think this manages and verifies integrity of partitions 13-17.
7 (ext3) This is where the system/rom is located. This is what you see in root explorer as "system", containing the build.prop and other stuff.
8 (ext3) This is the "data" folder .
9 (ext) This partition holds CDA info, with OEM apks, ringtones, and wallpapers, it seems to be mounted inside partition 10 (hidden) when the phone is on you can find the information merged into "hidden/data" using root explorer.
10 (ext3) This is the hidden partition containing boot images and CDA info. This can be found in "hidden" using root explorer.
11 (ext3) This is the cache partition.
12 (ext3) This is the Caivs, can't find too much info on this.
13-17 (unknown) I believe this is where the phone specific data is stored, including but not limited to MEID, ESN, and PRL.

Since there is no way to resize any partitions, that is why I made these. Data is the only partition that we can really use that won't require us to heavily modify the phone and be user friendly. Because not everybody who installs custom ROMs is gonna be able to do those types of modifications. This is the simplest way to fix the issue and won't impact anybody who wants to change ROMs.

I have had this posted in another forum for a while, the original tread is below. We (Triumph users) did not have camera working in ICS, and still don't on JB, So when I first released these, the optional script that installs facelock was not correct. Now that I have fixed the front camera, I got feedback that facelock was not working. While trying to fix it, I spent a few hours, never even getting the option in lockscreen settings, and finally added an acount one time so I could get some apps from google to figure out what was happening. Then I went in to the settings and it was there. So the hours I wasted was because I hadn't added an account. So face lock will not even show up in lockscreen settings until an account has been added to the phone. I think it has to do with having to have a second unlock option if facelock can't work, like low light situations.

It may work, one of the issues I had was the script was putting the optional files in system (the wrong place) and then the symlinks would overwrite the files. So this leads me to believe it may work, but I can't promise anything. If it doesn't work I can add some stuff to delete specific files in the updater-script, or you can remove the files from the ROM zip before flashing. You will want to at least wipe cache before you try these. I hate to say it, but you may have to be the tester.
Now that you guys are aware of these Gapps, you should ask your dev to remove Gapps from the ROM if possible. That would probably be the best route to go.

Already we have a enough internal memory 1gb. What we need is system partition which is 245 mb needs expansion may be additional 100 mb from internal memory. that is where the pain area.

thats not what i meant.. i was saying that partitioning our phone with what u said and also with some 100-200 mb to make internal memory detect it as sdcard?

Sorry, as I explained above, this is not an option. Big SD cards are cheap now, and how would a couple hundred MB help anyway? If it is for swap, then it would be better to wear out your SD rather than your internal HD. Plus a good SD would be faster.
If anybody has any other questions feel free to ask.;
Thank you Bsydz for throwing light on the so far untouched topic in our forum
Lots of useful information.
Off topic question
Can you please let us know how do we port JB ROMs from triumph to ideos x6. Especially PA Rom

Thanks. If I had another dev phone I would just build one for you guys. It is a pain switching over cause we never got an nb0, I have to manually swap out the partitions to get it back. That's where I got the info about the partitions. My PA JB is built on CM10, so it would be just like any other CM port except the headphones and most everything else should work. It is older since PA went to aosp instead of CM based. Are any of your CM10 ROMs built from source or just ports? It would be nice to see some of the edits made for our phone. The only thing that's not working on ours is 3G, video/camera preview, and HDMI. But you guys use sim cards so I don't think you would have 3G issues and your kernel should fix the previews.
I'll build a PA JB ROM if you are willing to test it. I have the device files and the kernels except ck's kernel. Let me know, cause I hate releasing something I can't test first.

Thank you, I am building it right now, just working through the errors from the ICS device files. CK, I got your kernel source, so we will see how it goes. I'll start new thread when it is done building.

Firmware and kernel of our devices are compatible, I checked when flashing CM 9 from Motorola TRIUMPH, running everything except the data and the camera upside down
Sory for my english

No need to apologize for language barriers. Do you think, you could put together a zip of the files in /lib and /bin that are for fb0? I just need the files that you put in to get it working, not all of them. It will make it easier to setup a device files for building from source. I have built the ROM and it boots, but no display, with copybit errors. I think I can get past those errors but once it fully boots, I'm sure things will have to be fixed.
Also, yes our phones are almost identical. Our amss.mbn is not compatible with the new kernel so we can't use our phone after the update. Just like you can't install the newer ROMs unless you flash the sharp nb0. I have it installed on my dev phone right now so i can get this working. I can install the nb0 and everything works perfectly except phone and 3g. It sucks, cause we are stuck.

How much, I realized you're talking about the incompatibility of your phone with our 35 kernel, 32 kernel but your compatible with our device, in MTDEV M9 worked even mobile network, except 3g that prevents replace the kernel to fix the library and enjoy the new firmware
