hi to everyone,
i would like to know if there's a custom rom that can be installed (the first time); after that, when some updates occur, i can update the rome with a small zip and not to reflash all the phone to get the new version? there is such a rom that has this feature?
for example, i have a stock deodexed rotted stock FRG83 (taken from development section) and i would like to know if there's an update i can install only the update instead of reflashing all the rom (even if i don't do a wipe)?
sorry for my english
thanks in advance
one and only ... stock rom
If your are flashing a "small zip" why not just flash the whole ROM? If you are upgrading to a newer version of the ROM you currently use, you only need to wipe cache and dalvik. All your apps and settings should remain intact. In and out, done in less than 10 minutes.
THANKS... so simple

I'm sorry,
I had to ask this newbie question.
I see newer versions OS ROM are constantly coming out.
I am currently using myHero ROM.
So, is there OS updater which I can use or
do i have to wipe old one and install new one manually?
THank you.
myHero came out with patches for every release he made so far so it could be updated without wipe. But when changing rom you have to wipe before flashing.
Hello, i need to uninstall Miui Gingerbread to install the official Gingerbread, i'm much more used to it, how can i do it?? Already tried to clean up the data and system and tried the Sam's firmaware last gingerbread but it would not worked.. Is it possible to downgrade to 2.2 and then install 2.3.3??
Greetings
Yes it is possible to downgrade for 2.3.3 to 2.2(.1 in my case)
I can't remember exactly how I did it, but I basically followed the instructions to install MIUI, but for a 2.2 ROM, so wiping data, system and cache, then flashing a darky ROM (but should work with any tbh)
Dead easy. Just install the Samsung Android 2.3.3 XWJVB ROM (link - http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-install-xwjvb-gingerbread-rom-gaalxy-s/)
But before you install XWJVB, install the EZRom to remove/uninstall the MIUI. It's available in two versions, select the one you want:
Android 2.2 based EZRom - http://www.theandroidsoul.com/ezbase-ezrom-for-android-2-2-install-revert-back/
Android 2.3 based EZRom - http://www.theandroidsoul.com/ezbase-rom-v3-0-full-installation-guide-w-video/
Credits and Thanks to Nitr8 for great EZRoms

Hey!
New to the XDA forum, not new to Android!
I will cut to the chase and explain really fast what I need help with.
I have been using the Imperium ROM 4.4.2 KK for a few weeks now and I love it.
But as of a few days ago, Update 4.0 (up from 3.6) was released, and my phone just won't stop spamming me with "upgrade to the latest version 4.0!" . However, as far as I can tell, I have to re-download the 4.0 ROM and flash my phone entirely over again.
So, TL;DR:
I am using the Galaxy S4 Imperium 4.4.2 ROM 3.6 and I want to;
a)Upgrade to 4.0 without re-flashing my and having to re-install all apps, backup photos etc.
b)Turn off the spam notifications about updating.
Thanks in advance, sincerely

I have the same problem i was using 6.0 and now 7.0 is out can i just perform ota update or do i have to donwload the rom and flash it.....what about my apps installed in 6.0 can i just apply update from sd in recovery...i dont want to reinstall all those apps again.plz help
Guys come on. These are really basic questions.
- If you are not prepared to wipe everything from time to time, then you should stay away from custom roms.
- You can just try it yourself if it works. Make a backup and flash away. If you got problems, fully wipe and restore your backup.

Hello, I managed to install Imperium Rom on to my phone but when I try to sync my phone with my samsung account it says sync error and also when I try to restore my phone with my samsung account it says could not connect to server but now I have gone back to my stock rom everything is fine. do you know what the problem could be?
Hi,
I've just install from the new installer CyanogenMod the ROM, after 2 automatique update, now it's tagged:
11.0-InstallerXNPQ32P
I think (from the note above the version) it's a M8.
What about the M9 and M10? It's comming in automatique Update (OTA) or I need to install it manualy?
Is the Installer version are something different as Mx?
ps: it's a very stable ROM (version), and I don't want change from a M9-10 right now, it's about know if updates are avaible from the Installer version and if a CyanogenMod 12 (Android L) comming, it's possible by Automatique Updater (OTA).
Hi, same question, please?
Me too ?
Personally, I would install TWRP, create a nandroid backup of your current ROM, manually flash an updated ROM and test the new ROM for a while. If the new ROM is unstable, restore your previous ROM from TWRP.
I think I have an even better question.
I hope this is a good question. I have loaded the CM installer version and to my delight I was back on 4.4.2 KK. I did not like the official 5.0.2 L update everything was slow and sluggish and I wanted to get back to root. Upon setting up my deb-razorg and after all apps were re-installed I had received a CM Installer update and I am now on 11.0-InstallerXNPQ32P aka 4.4.4. Click check for updates under system updates yields nothing it simply shows your system is up to date however during the process of updating google play services and I am sure frameworks somehow in my notification shade it shows System update available (Android 5.0.2 System update). I do not want to make this mistake again as this is what I saw using stock ROM right before going to Lollipop. The question is why would I get a separate OTA from Google why would I get an official OTA or AOSP update at the same time I had been getting back to back CM Installer updates? They appear to be two separate updates so not only do I not want to go back to Lollipop I am scared that would brick my tablet since I am on CM Installer. I cannot get rid of the official update from notification shade. Please help the question is not specific to the device I would just like to know why I am getting two different update prompts one official and one from CM installer?
Hello,
I have a unlocked Huawei P8 GRA-L09 B390, and i would like to install the custom rom Gratitude by Tecalote, and I have some question :
- Should I install the custom rom, or should I wait an update (because the custom rom is based on firmware b366, and that would be a 'downgrade')
- If the custom rom based on B390 will be out, is that easy to update it. Can I do it immediately or should I unroot first then update ?
- I'm a player of Pokemon Go, can I still play it with the Magisk Edition ?
- What's the main difference between simple root my P8 and install the custom rom ?
Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure if I understand all your questions.
I'll try to help:
- If you install your custom rom it will be a downgrade, but it's possible, that it doesn't matter, because of many differences (as I hope)
- For the update to a new version of the rom, I can't help right now. The safest way to update would be to make a full wipe, so you get sure, that everything is okey and nothing is disturbing, but with some Roms it works also to just wipe the Cache and to flash the new Zip-file - read the instructions, for more safety make a full wipe, but you won't have to unroot
- If you install a Rom, you will have a new operating system, with a new user-interface etc. Perhaps you get more updates, perhaps less (depends on the developer of the Rom, this is not Huawei) - the system could work better or worser. With simple root you can use apps that need root-access (there are a lot).
For the Pokemon go apps I can't help
Could I help in general?
