I have a couple of questions I am hoping to get help with. First if I have a custom ROM on my phone like MoDaCo and I wipe back to factory will it also add back the apps I removed like Nascar, footprints, ect. I am asking because after I wiped it through the recovery screen it did not add these back. The second question is when trying to do a Nandroid restore from when I first rooted the phone after I updated it, I get an error telling me it has to be done from the shell. Can I do this and if so how? Thanks
can anyone help with this?
Are you using RA-1.2.3??
My Nandroid backups have never asked me to restore through terminal.
Your back up maybe corrupt?? If so, I am not sure if people have had success loading a Nandroid from another phone, but you are welcome to one of my factory backups if it works. Can someone confirm a Nandroid from another phone will restore? I will Send if it does.
Also, the factory reset in RA1.2.3 should put back all apps. It is a "Factory reset" though I have never done one without immediately loading a rom. Who knows how its actually supposed to work.

I am using RA-1.2.3. I guess it is possible the backup got corrupt when I moved it to my PC and then back to the phone. What is strange is none of the backups I had saved would take. I was able to do a backup and then right after that restore it so I know it works. I did about three factory resets and it would not add back the system apps I removed, but I think before the Sprint update when I first rooted the phone it did add back all the apps when I reset the phone. I could be wrong or it may be they came back when I put MoDaCo 1.1 on the phone since his ROM has everything with it. Thanks for responding.
last MoDaCo Rom I loaded (1.2c) all the stock apps came back, but I also loaded the Optimzation.zip so i wasn't sure who put them back.
Good to know it was the MoDaCo. It seems that even loading Rom's most things are fairly persistent and don't get wiped or over writen which is nice.
WinMoBo phones usually wipe everything out when you do this stuff.

doing a "factory reset" will not replace stock programs you deleted, it will just delete all your settings and apps you installed.
It's a misnomer in fact.... but when HTC made the option, they assumed that you hadn't rooted your phone. That's why all they really delete is the stuff in /data. Nothing in /system is added or modified.
If you really want to do a true factory reset, get the RUU from HTC and run it to reset your phone to exactly what it was when you got it.
As far as Nandroid not working, I've never had that problem either, but if your backup is corrupt then RUU will be your only option.
After I showed my rooted NC to my brother he had to have one. He went out the day after xmas and bought one, handed it to me and asked me to work my stuff on it.
The problem is that I rooted it with my gmail credentials and now I can't change that or delete them in any way. I did add his, but mine can not be deleted as far as I can see.
Any help? Is a factory reset and re-root the only way I can do this?
Thanks,
Steve

That should contain the information you need, though I think most people have simply been re-rooting. Also, the apps you installed through Market are tied to your Google account, so if you change to his, I *think* you'll lose access to your paid apps.
I ended up doing a factory reset and then re rooted the NC.
Nothing else would work.

I did the method posted in the link above. Needed to install speedsoftware's sqlite editor though.

But you still managed through just editing that one db file right?

Yup. I just edited the db file above and removed the duplicate account I created. Upon rebooting all was well.
I looked through related post and didn't really get a clear idea of what I should do. Tried clearing the media cache already and that didn't help. I did get an error when formatting the data in CW. Can anyone help me out?
8gb_clockwork-3.0.1.0
update-cm-7.1.0-RC0-encore-2.6.32-beta3.1
Update-BN1.2-uboot.bin
Anyone?
After doing some more searching through the forums I've found the issue with why I wasn't able to format my data partition. I've got one of the blue dot Nooks, doh! I'm going to guess that either going back to stock or resizing the partitions and reflashing CM7 will be my best choice of action. Any thoughts?
No clue on the format Data problem, sorry.
But I think I may know the answer to your process.android.media FC. I was seeing FCs on com.android.media about a week ago, and after a lot of googling I found this thread. Following the steps on the last reply fixed it.
I don't know if com.android.media is the same as your process.android.media, but it can't hurt to try clearing the data on that process.
Thanks! I'll try that out when I get a chance. If that doesn't work I may just repartition and flash CM7 back.
This may be a noobie question, but I am stuck, and don't know what I did wrong.
Here's what happened...
I am running on Firefly 3.0. I had the Dark Fire theme installed. I downloaded a new theme from the Ff mods app. After I installed it, everything was reset on my phone; layout, settings, contacts, etc.
To make things worse, all apps I try to run "Force close" on me, so I can't even run Titanium Backup to try and fix this.
Should I just try to re-flash FireFly, or is there an easier fix?
If there is already a post on this topic that I didn't see, please let me know, and i will look at it.
Again, this might be a noobie question, but i am out of ideas myself.
Thanks
recovery > advance > fix permissions see if that help, or your probably going to need go back to stock and redo everything form clean slate.
p.s. You dont have to go putting noobie question all over the place.

+1 for fix permissions.
If not, re flash and don't restore system data with TiBu
