Rom Noob.

I'm thinking about getting a new ROM as the one I have is stock and is utterly poop. Can you choose one and not ever need to change it again and it will stay the same speed for ever? I have a few questions that I hope you could all answer.
How do I install once downloaded a ROM
If I was to install a ROM and it did not work do I just do a hard reset to get it back to standard?
Once I have a new ROM can I still use apps that I have if I install them again?
Should I back up files I have atm and how?

wow
Have you read even a single postin this section of the forum?
all of thoseare answered at least 10,000 times already. If you look up there is even a thread with comparisons of ROMs now, how about starting that and then working from there.

No need for the WOW comment, I'm a bit impatient at times I will have a read about but would still like my questions answered.

thats one thing you dont want to be mate, impatient when it comes to flashing roms, for eperienced flashers its a 5 minute job, but for newcommers its easy to **** up.
I would suggest spending some time reading up about it before jumping straight in at the deep end.
Check the link in my sig and also the ones posted by shum97.
Good luck.

[wrong forums, mod pls move]Windows7 on NAND and Android on SD (Dualboot via MAGLDR)?

Hey guys (n girls ;D),
I just wanted to ask briefly, whether or not it is possible to dual-boot windowsphone 7 from NAND and android from SD? I know there is a chinese tutorial, but my chinese is rather bad
Can anyone provide a tutorial? I am interested in using MDJ's revolution rom from SD card and windows7 for fun purposes from NAND. If you can assist me in getting that thing running I can write it up as a tutorial for this section.
thanks in advance,
jokeR
(sorry for posting in the wrong forums, i would appreciate if a MOD moved the thread.)
However, if someone stumbles upon this thread, here is the solution that worked for me:
as IMFLOFLO stated, there already is a tutorial here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913815
moreover, in order to get the MDJ builds running one has to use another ROOTFS.IMG file, that was provided by VUA777 http://www.multiupload.com/UY49ZO7MTP
thanks for your help!

Can you link the chinese tutorial maybe someone will translate it plz
and have you read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913815

There is Tutorials on this already.
Did you even try searching. This is also the wrong place for this thread. Last time I looked it was development not Q&A.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913815 try this..... awesome.. me too testing

thanks for the link, but its stating 2 sd cards. For some strange reason wp7 reception is better then the nand android build.

How did you do it?
I thought that we must do trick in order to boot from sd.
It is instructed that we must put one line command in the img file.
And to do that, we must mount the .img in the linux environtment.
I tried to replace the original roofs.img with your file, but it doesnt work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Sorry, my mistake . After I read and read, I finally manage to boot to sd Android..Thanks for the file that you provided in the download link (I pressed the button thanks for that )

The use of 2 micro sd is only for making image of your current WP7, once the image is created, you will only need 1 card to use and 1 as your backup image.
You are the same with me, I also have better signal reception in WP7 than the android. But we cannot generally take it for granted..

If that was trying to say that I want to be a mod then you are mistaken as I have no want/need or any intention of ever been a mod. I just want you to know that I own/run multiple forums of my own aswell as own and run a torrent site.
The reason I posted that reply about this been a dev forum is because this IS teh dev forum. This isnt the place for people to be asking questions like this, PLUS if you had read the stickies you would know that the staff have specifically ASKED people to point out and report wrongly posted threads!!

As you know, because you've read the stickied thread, the staff have specifically asked people to point out and report wrongly posted threads by "report(ing) it and in the field where it asks you why you reported it, type where you think the thread should be."
When the mods move the thread, the OP will see it has been moved, and see the mod reason why.

And your point?
I reported it to staff AND pointed it out to the OP. Just because I report it at same time doesnt mean I cant make teh OP aware prior to him been informed by staff when its eventually moved.

Wont blame u, i guess u didn't see..
Anyways i have superam 1.5 by darkstone running as sd build and my nand is windows phone 7..

Update android NAND rom without losing data?

Hey,
Was wondering if it was possible to upgrade a NAND rom without loosing all my apps, contacts, images etc. Reason being that I have a very early build which has some missing features such as GPS and I really need them. I have been using this build for a while now an have added new contacts, installed apps and have a lot of data on it generally. Is there any way that I can update to a new build whilst keeping my data?
Thanks in advance

in this topic a video show u how can u upgrade u're rom with ClockWorkMode.

It amazes me that there are people in these forums who are smart enough to to install android rom on there phone, but they still can't figure out where to post a question. There is a forum for questions and there is a forum android development, and yet they still pick the development forum for questions. Why is this concept so hard to understand. Haven't you noticed that there isn't any other questions being asked in this forum except yours?

Its because they know more people view the nand development forum than the Q&A forum so they have more chance of getting an answer to their question.
I noticed a while ago a mod from another xda forum posting a question in the nand dev forum for that very same reason.
Simple solution, don't answer people who start question threads in dev forums until they are moved to the proper place.
Regards.

Titanium Backup
The name is Titanium Backup

So you don't want people to answer your question in the nand dev forums until it is moved to Q&A forums. Then why didn't you just post in the Q & A forum in the first place. You saw another person posting in the nand dev forum, so now you feel like you should do the same. So now other people will see your question and then will post there own questions in the nand dev forum and the trend will continue.The last thing everyone wants is the nand dev forums flooded with questions. By the way, a quick search in the forums, you could have found an answer to your original question.

If you bothered to read my reply i was agreeing with the person i quoted "YOU" and was only stating the reason some people are posting questions in the Dev forum. Example,,,, the mod who had posted a question in the Nand Dev forum for that very reason.
I was also saying people should not answer questions put in the dev forums until it has been moved to the proper place. They will then have to wait until it has been moved which could be hours if the mods are not about or busy. Getting a quick reply in the dev forum only encourages others to do the same.
If you can find any question i have started in a Dev form you can have my HD2 for free.
Idiot.

I seem to have started a row. I appoligise for starting this thread where I did. I hope you two can still be friends! Thanks for the help will use the clockwork mod as soon as I can!

You can't use CWM unless the ROM is CMW friendly.
You need Titanium Backup - free in the market. (The paid version is WELL worth it though!)

thanx is just needid this

Will Hardcore release T14 kernel for JVT?

It seems t13 kernel works well on JVT.
Does anybody konw whether Hardcore will release the new kernel for JVT?
Due to my level is not enough and I try to send a private message to hardcoe, Following is his reply. F.U.R
Hi, thanks.
The K13 should work find with JVT as there is probably no change in the kernel between JVS and JVT. So, you don't need to wait for a T14 with JVT modules to use it with JVT.
In the future if I release another update, I might also update the modules from JVT. But I don't think there will be much (or any) difference.

I'm from china and there are many persons like your kernel.
Maybe, as u know, samsung has released the latest ROM JVT, and we're waitting for you update for this version.
Do u have plan to update the kernel for this?
Currently, we have to use t13 and it seems there is no problem for JVT.
Thanks for your hard work!

WTF? A whole new thread to ask something about another thread?
You shouldn't need permissions for anything but to post links. Try again, just click "Quote" on someone else's post in that thread.

If you have less than 10 posts you are not allowed to write in dev forums. So you can either start reasonable threads for example here or write 10 bulls**t posts to get permission.

Wasn't aware of that rule, I started on XDA posting on the general section so I guess I never experienced that problem when I started digging into dev threads.

Sorry, am i reading this right???? You HAVE a reply directly from hardcore regarding this question, and THEN you go and start a thread asking the same question?
Why?

Why? The answer is very simple: to make 10.000 useless posts....

Can't access extsdcard in terminal.

Trying to hack tethering but it says no such directory...any tips? Tried a ton of things.
This is probably the wrong place to ask but I'm a noob to this forum

First off, questions go in Q&A, and will be marked with a [Q] before the title.
Secondly, you didn't provide what version of Android you were running.
I'm guessing here, but you may be running the leaked 4.4 Samsung ROM, if so, look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2607215
If not, then I have no idea.

So far you have created 3 threads for this request:
RULE 5. Create a thread or post a message only once.

I created one thread but it was in the wrong place. Someone told me to put it in the right place. Since I can't move threads I had to create a new one. I didn't realize the original guide was one this forum until later.
