Market Apps Backup and Restore missing from Froyo EB13? - Epic 4G General

Has any of the devs out looked into why we haven't had the Market apps/setting restore feature like we had on Froyo DK28 in EB13? I'm referring to the option when you were in the Android Setup Wizard after a wipe and flash of a new ROM you would be prompted about Google backing up and restoring your apps/settings. There was also options for this under Settings>Privacy.
They are still in the .apks (Settings.apk and Setupwizard.apk) I decompiled them and found the xml's and all are still there for this feature but for some reason or another I can't get it to function again under CWM3.0.0.6/EXT4. I haven't tried it under CWM 2.x.x.x/RFS .
I also doubled checked the build.prop and its set to OPTIONAL at the setupwizard line. Same goes for ROMS containing the extra default.prop.
I would really like to have this feature back in my ROM.
Thanks.

I noticed this also. I started a thread about it a few days ago but no one responded.

Sorry I didn't catch that thread or I would of commented there..
I hope Dameon87 or one of the seasoned devs can provide an answer.
I wonder if this is possibly EXT4/kernel related like the redirector issues ?

No, file system doesn't make a difference. It's missing from the stock RFS build also.

Modaco alpha3 test rom is up

Here is the link to the page Thanx P!! SCROLL DOWN TO POST 59!!! No Wifi though...Be thankful folks. ...And yes IT IS A WORKING DESIRE ALPHA ROM....NO BOOT LOOPS FOR ME
To the Mods....Just sharing the love
Something to live for...
Okay So of course if your here is beacuse your waiting for modaco to release the new alpha, well alpha three was released as you see above and with the alpha2 boot image all the communications are locked down.
Here are some screen shots of this Beauty. I will Spread them around once everything is up and running. Also I have placed the alpha2 img.. for you to download...
Just unzip this and flash this via fastboot only after you have just flashed the alpha** rom.. K?

Its loads the flash but so far i can't get a video to play. It says Video unavailable or something. Im sure someone will get a way to work. I don't think it will be too smooth though honestly.
Little By little we pile up in here now, and THIS IS GENERAL SO MOD, LEAVE IT BE.... Now, I say that it is a good move.. I notcied that if i flash the alpha2 boot it works as its on but if you reboot were back to the white screen so, guess this is being worked out.
Besides that.. I kept a Nadroid of the one without alpha2 and then run the one with it. I have not switched back to another rom SINCE!!!
Addition: If you have the alpha 3 rom and you flash the alpha2 img.. you will end up back at the white screen upon reboot.. No biggie, just have to revert to your alpha3 nandroid (WHICH SHOULD HAVE MADE BY NOW) and flash it again. So runn it lightly until P comes through tomorrow, well a few hours for him, and see where this goes...

Nandroid Back Up
Hey, How can I get this to be a Nandroid so I can Megupload this... This way people can run it with everything done.. I mean apps, paid, free, better keyboard, root explorer, jesus the list rides...
I wanted to do that do everyone can have a one click solution and just run the rom right from when they sign in with everything...
Just asking...
Honestly, I see flash in this as in or out thing.. I searched on google for best flash sites and got some water site, marc ecko, etc... This showed on the device with all of it working.. Many sites i should work.. I just dont know where the median is on this. I cant tell.
Hey JesusCat could you please link us to an alpha3 download?
It looks like Google Voice isn't working for calls, I still dial out with my normal number not my GV number.
I don't believe you would be able to post that nandroid on here in accordance to the rules on warez.

Nandroid Back Up
Okay, My wife sort of talked to me and made sense.. Instead of doing it with everything I will get it to where you have to sign in and download all your apps or crawl back from SD. I will get a Nandroid Up in the Morning as soon as I see something from P. This way you could have it this simple way too. I guess i will be helping him out with a simple one click push of his mods...

How would this be different from having to wipe and flash the ROM? The main reason I am saying this, is because on the G1, restoring nandroids from another G1 would result in some hardware issues sometimes, so I wonder if this would persist on the N1.

Well, this is the case.. It all works the same... All nexus are the same, depending on personal daily abuse... I could do this and get it done, but, after thinking, discussing and addressing the situation.. i would say there is no diff in flashing versus the nandroid. I just wanted to make it easier, but, as my lady said, lets let it be Modaco's game...
Only his..
I can report Orb works both via browser & the new
Orb app, wifi only so far, but that may be my server settings.

Titanium Backup on XXJPU working on solution with dev

Hi
As older backups don't restore correctly on xxjpu i'm in contact with the dev of Titanium Backup since a few days.
We are really close to the solution, but i'm currently testing his beta builds.
I think next market release should fix the problem.
I'll let you know on any progress.

Yep.. Already contacted Joel with my fix.. He is working on it
I have JPU rom and titanium backup is working.
@kalpik: told him also about your fix, but betas didn't work so i had to test and send him logcats. in the latest release at least /dbdata/databases/.../shared_prefs is restored correctly, but the permissions are not set correctly. so as soon as Joel fixes everything should work.
@Ilija.Ilija: TB works, but on some apps data isn't restored to the right folder:
restoring older backups on xxjpu that store setting in /dbdata/databases/.../shared_prefs are not restored correctly
The only thing I'm thinking about is that is it even worth to fix it right now? JPU is most definitely an experimental build, and Samsung might just go back to the previous arrangement of data on a newer ROM! Its just wasted work then
If they really go back, then it is wasted time.
But if they do not, we have already a solution for people coming from roms before jpu.

Maybe the better solution for now is too keep both way in TB for a while...
One option to restore with the old settings
One option to restore with JPU settings

thanks guys for the effort to keep tb compatible.
it'll be a waste if samsung goes back to the old firmwares though. jpu is working mighty well using rfs compared to the earlier stuff. so much so, there's hardly any need to use ext4 lagfix unless you really want to squeeze performance to the last drop.

@kalpik: I don't know if there is any need to write him again, but if i have to, i'll put you in CC.
The test on the latest beta was successful! As this is maybe only a temporary version for xxjpu he will release it on his hompage and not publishe it on the market. Once we know that samsung keeps this strcuture in future firmwars Joel will publish it also on the market. I'll let you know once the jpu version is up.

OOPs double post by me, Sorry, Thank you Kalpik in helping us out.
PS : Does this do batch restore without user interruption?
Kalpik, you should make a thread in themes & apps section with this.
Note: it will still *NOT* be able to restore backups made on JPU ROM to another ROM.

EXTREMELY EXCITED.
Have been waiting for this!
So all I need to do please correct me if Im wrong is flash any other ROM such as Perecption or Cognition ect. Or just install the latest Voodoo Lag Fix. Then just flash this also on top of that through Clockwork?
Thanks and PLEASE correct me if im wrong here.

Personally if i were you i would wait for a more stable release, theres has been vast improvements in the kernel up till now but its still not ready for day to day use for everyone, plus if your unsure how to install it then you probably shouldn't ! But if you must , the method i used was flashed back to stock, gsm reset (code=*2767*3855#) which wipes all your memory, then flash darkys rom v7 and enable voodoo after phone boots and reboot it, then flash the gb kernel through clockwork recovery.... also i had to reboot the phone after installing the kernel to get 3g working...good luck

Consumers of ROMS sometimes forget that devs have family too.
Merry Christmas and Best Wishes to you and your family. Wish the same to all the devs.
Cheers!!
Thanks DG! Happy Holidays to everyone. Cant wait for more stable version too.
woot woot. finally a method i could do!! this does leave me some questions though.
is it possible to just flash to stock 2.2 (instead of a custom rom), install voodoo5, and than install the zip through rom manager?
http://project-voodoo.org/download
the voodoo stable 5.0, is that for the captivate? just making sure, dont want to download something thats for the i9000.
and lastly! if anything goes wrong, flashing one click odin will solve everything correct? all the changes (aka the eff ups) i made should return to stock settings?
sooo excited!!
edit. to eleborate on my voodoo worries.
will reflashing with odin to stock, change my kernal back to the stock one or will it keep voodoo? just wondering because i was wondering if its required that i disable (or uninstall) voodoo before i use odin to restore or could i just use odin after testing the rom out without any disabling/enabling.
edit 2:
shoot forgot to ask, what are the usb files for? im gut tells me their the files needed for the comp to recognize the captivate after flashing. and second, does this require a root? and this is the LOL question, could i just rename the 2.3 file a "update.zip" and install it like that or do i have to do the whole clockwork thing. Six question. geez im dumb.
Merry Xmas!

Google+ and MIUI builds (1.6.24 & 1.7.1)

Apparently the last two builds have been constantly causing me FC's in Google+ whenever I try to post anything.
I've flashed to Odin, etc etc. the usual business. (Fixed permissions, etc.)
The only build which doesn't cause this issue is build 1.6.17
I've tried both the MIUI.US & MIUI Android builds, and they both are in the same boat.
I've attached what I assume to be the logcat, it's what pops up when I report the issue and it goes to Gmail.
So back to 1.6.17, but just thought I'd see if others are experiencing this issue with the last to builds of MIUI.
Thanks,

move last weeks browser apk to the system app folder
change permissions to rw-r-r
Run cache cleaner ng on "old method"
Boot into recovery and wipe dalvik and cache partition
fix permissions
reboot
open titanium and clear user data for " browser"
Try browser.
google works fine for me....it does look different now..it has tabs
TAKE BROWSER OUT OS 1.6.17!
GOOGLE still working fine on new build of energy?.......If that dont fix it ill look at the log you posted, been kinda busy this morning and have to leave at noon

Cm 2 pa q&a

Hi! I have some questions, hope to get some answers. I'm coming from CM to PA and there are a few things that matter to me. What I liked about CM and does it exist in PA.
1.Cyandelta - Is the built-in PA OTA the same thing? Or does it flash the whole Rom?
2.If I froze something with TB, then flashed an update, nightly for example - my frozen system apps got updated and stayed frozen. - Will the same work with PA? If not, would I also have to unfreeze system apps before flashing an update OTA or manually via recovery?
3.The support, CM has their forums, awesome by the way. - To get help with PA questions? Xda? G+? 4.When I get my hybrid settings how I like them, per app colors. - Will they remain after a update, even a big one like 4.2.2-4.3? Is there a way to back them up and import them, maybe via a root explorer app, please explain the where-to-how.
Thank you all in advance for your time and answers

1) The PA OTA updater is very much intended to be just like cyandelta - but it's not fully functional as of yet. It is the exact same idea but they haven't got the kinks worked out. I'd imagine it will be fixed up sooner than later though.
2) Yes, Titanium Backup works the same way with PA as CM. The freezing action is the same, just like you described.
3) The PA dev thread is heavily active, as is the FAQ. As you may notice, I and several others really make sure questions get answered. G+ has a very vibrant community as well.
4) Hybrid Preferences have a backup functionality built right into that section of the settings. So, yes, you can restore things. That doesn't go for every little setting in the menu, just the Hybrid stuff - but that's what you asked about anyhow.
Hope this helped
All questions answered
