How to properly do backups/retores with CWR

Ok so i started this thread as a result of what happen to me. He is my story, i was on Bionix Fusion 1.1 w/Voodoo and of course i had that backed up along with Bionix 1.9.1 w/Voodoo and JI6 w/One Click Lag Fix. I was having issues with a app (Beautiful Widgets) where i was trying to have the weather how up on the notification bar but it would not come up automatically unless you went into the app and selected "save & apply" every singe time, very anoying. I contacted the developer of the app and the last thing he asked was if i was running the stock launcher. Since Fusion uses Launcherpro i decided to restore my JI6 w/One Click Lag Fix. To my shock when i ran the restore i ended up on Android System Recovery and could not get pass that even if i tried using the other 2 restore points (Bionix Fusion 1.1 w/Voodoo, Bionix 1.9.1 w/Voodoo).
I posted my problem in the Q&A section hoping for a solution but of course i got nothing back, so i found a thread regarding someone being stuck on the Android System Recovery screen just like me. It was mentioned to use Eugenes Froyo that does not brick and then flash the stock JFD rom. After many attempts i finally got my phone up and running but little did i realize that my entire phone got wiped clean, meaning i lost all my songs (over 100) 2 .avi movies, a few wallpapers and all the different Roms and Mods i had installed. Basically my phone ended up just when i first bought it. I was very upset i lost everything but glad that i got my phone up and running again..
So what to do to avoid this? when doing a back up using CWR and if you are running Voodoo, MAKE SURE YOU DISABLE VOODOO BEFORE BACKING ANYTHING AND THEN SAME THING GOES FOR WHEN RESTORING, MAKE SURE VOODOO IS DISABLE. I believe this is a very important point to note but no one has ever mentioned it anywhere in the forum. Yes they advise to do backups before doing anything, they advise to disable Voodoo before flashing anything but never this. If i had known this i wouldn't have spent hours freaking out and wondering what was wrong and looking all over the place and waiting for someone to help me out.
Now i have to spend more time installing everything that i lost and getting my phone back to the way i had it before this happened. I hope this helps and that maybe it goes up in the sticky so people can easily find it.
I would like to thank jdkackley for bring up the fact that Voodoo needs to be disabled while backing and restoring.
P.S. i still can not get the weather to come up automatically on the notification bar, still in constant contact with the dev of Beautiful Widgets app.

I'm assuming you checked "Temperature Notification" in settings.... You didn't say. Are you restoring app + data each time you flash a new rom and not changing the settings of BW's?
I dont understand why you would need to keep going in and clicking save and apply... have you deleted the app, and the downloaded it again?

Yes i did click the "Temperature Notification" and still nothing, every time i restart my phone i wait about 10 minutes and nothing so i have to go into the app and click save & apply, i have also un-installed and re-installed the app and same issues. Thank you for your insight, i still have not heard from the dev in regards to me running the app on the stock launcher so i just have to wait and see what he/she says.
But the main reason of the thread was because it has not been mentioned about how to properly backup/restore if you are running Voodoo.

Do you have any apps like a task manager or autostarts?

only task manager i have is the one that came with the Fusion 1.1 rom nothing else and no auto starts.
EDIT: ok it seems to be working but i only get the temperature in the notification bar about 10-15 minutes after the phone is turned on and is finished with the boot sequence, i thought it should come on automatically. E-mailed the dev on this and waiting for a reply.

I just turned on the notification bar temp... rebooted.
It took about 4 minutes and the temp is showing up.
I have autostarts installed which prevents a lot of apps from opening on boot. Not sure if that helped with my better time. I also have BW set to refresh on wake (and the automatic refresh is like 8 hours or something long).
A great developer... I'm sure he can figure it out. You may want to ask if a logcat is needed... you may want to try an app like autostarts too (free for the 24 hour window, cant hurt).

ok been keeping an eye on my phone since my last reboot 2:10 local time and it is now 2:25 local time and still nothing so i guess we can disregard my edit from last post. i will try the refresh on wake and see what happens.
EDIT: well my phone has been up for 7 minutes and still nothing, very aggravating. just have to wait on the dev.

[Q] dk28 messaging app

so i used the ota update and now the messaging app is super ugly. i much preferred not having the speech bubbles let alone the hideous colors. is there a way to change this back to what it was before 2.2.1?
thanks!
(i'd post a screenshot, but new users can't do the external links thing)

You could try this: http://efragtv.com/android/ROM/nobubblemms_signed.zip
From Dameon's addons section for his Quantum ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841948 You just flash it using Clockwork.

thanks! i'll give it a shot. how would i return back to stock if i dislike it?
edit: i assume, just a normal back up in clockwork would suffice?

Have you given handcent a shot? I love that app!

Thanks for the suggestion, but that isn't really the solution I'm after. I'd much prefer to use the 2.1 version or just a speech bubble-less 2.2.1.

Not meaning to just bump my own thread, but another thought on the messaging app - now if you send a text that is longer than 148 characters (typical max text length) it no longer splits the message into two displayed messages. Instead it only displays the first full message and you have to click the chat balloon to view it all. Definitely a regression in terms of functionality, though not technically a bug.
sorry if this has been reported in other threads. More and more I really hope this messaging app goes back to how it functioned in 2.1 when the final update comes out.
another example of swype regression - if you start a new sentence then long press delete to delete the first word it will not start up auto capitalization unless you hit space. This was not the behavior in 2.1 nor is it likely the intended behavior. And yes, I do have auto caps turned on.

DK28 Regressions

I figure it be a good place to try and list all the regressions in behavior we see in DK28.
can be used to list them / point out what changed and why its not really a regression, just have to change what we do.
I've noticed two things so far
1) Can't dial by last name in on screen keypad dialer, just first name. This is somewhat annoying (especially as my friends last names are more distinct than first names)
2) missing all my "other" calendars in calendar app. (i.e. I have facebook exported that way, along with holidays and some other stuff). Also doesn't let me select individual calendars that I want to list. I believe this might have a backup/restore issue. Just reset my phone and haven't restored anything from backup and have all my calendars.
This also seems to impact agenda widget. For some reason calltrack does work Part of me assumes I'm doing something wrong here.
Update:
Other regressions: (reported and verified by independent source)
3) Mediahub no longer works (requires you to update it from Market, but can't be found): noted: 12/5/2010 by jwhisl (Orbiting234: probably related to Market not recognizing DK28)
4) No way to prevent GPS data from being included in EXIF of Pictures if GPS is on: noted 12/5/2010 by styckx

One odd thing I noticed was with Dolphin browser. When holding the back button to bring up the exit menu it used to vibrate when it popped up. Now it does not. It still vibrated before I upgraded to froyo.
I know it is a little thing any meaningles but it threw my whole operating habits out of wack.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

I've noticed that the Mediahub application no longer works. When I launch the app it tells me to install an update then sends me to the market. Unfortunately the market cant find the download I need so I cant watch any of my purchased media. The phone is also telling me that the media type is not supported.
Installed dk28 via zip and hard reset device to fix audio, camera, and memory card issues
might anybody have the update in apk or zip format?

Ok, this one is pissing me off. It seems you can no longer disable gps data getting lumped into you camera pictures.
Becareful! Turn off gps entirely unless you want you photos exif data containing your location.

I can use 4G in NYC, though I do notice when I reboot the phone that a similar thing happens, I just attribute it to be doing to omuch processing.

Besides Media Hub update not being found in marketplace, Car Home and Desk Home apps are unable to be found in the market either. Will probably all be worked out once DK28 is properly recognized by the market for these particular apps.

anyone notice the auto complete isn't working and only recognizes names in the contact list?

It failed my test. Just like the previous leaks, last.fm skips and jitters when browsing the web and playing music at the same time. As a matter of fact, music skips any time I do anything thqat even moderately taxes the cpu. My Evo does fine under the same conitions. Why, Samsung, why?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I'm kind of hoping that this is still a beta version and not final cause it still has some flaws compared to ecclair. I made a thread in the Developement forum about the problems I am having with dk28.
Slow rotation
Slower frame rate on notification drop down
Browser choppiness and checker boarding
etc.

media hub is an exclusive samsung galaxy app
some of the dk25 roms have nexus one signatures in the build.prop that is why is doesn't show it

It seems to be putting my location in there even with gps off. I had to turn off the wifi location also just to get it to stop.

I downloaded the zip file last night when it was first posted on here. I had stock rom, changed the file name on my phone to update.zip, moved it to root folder, did the recovery and update. Everything is fine and I'm on froyo 2.2.1 now. I'm try to replicate the problems you guys are having, but I can't. The only problem I can replicate is the checkered box when zooming in and out. My hardware is .5 and I just bought the phone last month. I got my wifes at the same time and hers is doing just fine as well. Do you guys think that even though my hardware is .5 that there could be some differences in the phone since everything is still working better then 2.1 for me and my wife?

other issues i've noticed:

-browser gradient at top (right below notification/status bar) disappears when scrolling and pops back on once done scrolling
-swype sucks after update
-browser does not auto hide keyboard once completed text imput and window refreshes
-as noted, the geotagging data on the pictures cannot be prevented even with gps off
all of these, on top of an ugly messaging app have caused me to do a complete factory reset just to get rid of the issues. i never had problems with 2.1 so i guess i'll stick with it until the final release.

you're able to dial from the dialer with someone's last name?
i.e. You have a Friend Joe Smith, you press
7 (for s)
6 (for m)
4 (for i)
...
and you get your friend joe smith? I just have it matching first name.

Last name doesn't work. I have to do it by first as well. Very annoying if you have more than two friends with the same fist name. That's the only one I can replicate.

Check your Swype Settings. [Speed vs. Accuracy] may be tuned for speed. Slide it over to the right and it should work better.

After using this for 8hrs now. I've come to the conclusion this release sucks a bag of .....
Crappy keyboard lag, last.fm skipping, the captivate buttons responsiveness has changed (for the worse), delayed screen rotation, camera writing exif gps data unless you disable gps and wireless location.
Overall this just runs and feels like pure junk. I was never one demanding and frothing for 2.2 and I'm glad I have backups of my 2.1 install and will be going back to it. I liked 2.2 at first until I really got to feeling it out.
Sure GPS is fixed but they screwed up 10 things in its place.

+1 on this sentiment. I am not having any issues like this. Now this is not a regression, but I noticed that there is still the cell standby issue that requires airplane mode toggle. I find that glitch to be really frustrating.

Something Is Seriously Wrong With Froyo

I updated my phone yesterday using the update.zip method via the SD card and I must say I am very annoyed with what it's done to my great phone.
Everything on my phone is now super-laggy and it's driving me crazy. I could deal with this issue if it was isolated to one issue but everything is SLOW:
Screen Rotation is slow and sometimes the wrong layout, wtf?
Power button is slow to respond on wake, about 2 seconds.
SMS list takes a few seconds to populate, new msgs just sit there with a blank screen.
Navigation through the menu's is also slow and laggy.
I've wiped my phone after the initial upgrade and still it doesn't improve the issues I'm having. I haven't checked out the GPS or other features yet but I wouldn't be surprised if they had issues too.
Major thumbs down. With the constant Froyo talk around here you'd think something miraculous was being released, what a pile of ****.

I don't have any of those issues. Did you wipe before you installed? I noticed that when I installed it didn't touch my /data partition, once I saw that I went bck and did it again.

I also have none of those issues. the only issue i have seen is when joining contacts from facebook i get a force close.

Yeah, it's pretty buggy.
It doesn't let me dial *2 for customer service

Its mixed reviews. Mine workes almost perfectly. I'm happy wth it. Others arnt so lucky. Your milage may very.

My suggestion would be to use the rooted with clockwark tar. I was having some strange issues to after doing a .zip update and flashing the modem through Odin. Upon an entirely clean install from Odin it seems much better and my GPS came back.

There ARE a lot of quirks with Froyo. For one, the screen rotation is slow. Also, the browser has checkerboards all over the place.
With the browser, if you want the text to reflow, you have to pinch to zoom in to your desired size and then double tap the screen for the text to reflow and fit the screen. I kind of like that feature myself, but it took me a while to figure it out.

Why are people still using the stock browser anyway when there are better alternatives out there? I use dolphin ever since I had my moment running 1.5.
As far as the rotation, I have no issues with that anymore with DK17 or DK28

I flashed my phone with a zip and it had issues with browser checkers and slow rotation. I flashed my sister's with the full .tar from briefmobile. Hers doesn't have these issue.

Did my flash with the odin tar, and haven't had any problems...

Dolphin is horrendous looking and it takes up half of the screen with its useless junk UI. Stock browser destroys Dolphin.

My point is there are other options then the stock browser, which browser you use is a matter of opinion

I haven't had any problems so far...
wiped 3x, wiped cache, and dalvik.
Flashed rom
wiped 3x, wiped cache, and dalvik.
Flashed rom again.
I use Dolphin HD and its the best i've used imo. Easy swipe for bookmarks, make it fullscreen if you don't like extra "junk ui". Tabs, ability to download audio from streams, skins and addons, you really can't complain. I've noticed the stock broswer doesn't let u change the uAstring?

So..
I just slid my Epic into my $40 SAMSUNG Multimedia dock looking forward to rocking some tunes out on the home stereo using the line out they told us on that little peice of paper in the packaging would work when Froyo is released.
Color me SHOCKED when I hit the play button and music played... Through the phone speaker and not the line out.
Seriously? This irritates me to no end..

How'd you fix it? My screen won't rotate on the home screen unless I pop open the keyboard..yet it works perfectly fine in programs.

Flashed with tar file, keyboard now slow and unresponsive, skips letters every 5-10 strokes, annoying as hell, browser rotation slow.. everything else somewhat fast. gps works.
keyboard issue is a huge thumbs down from me though

Did it unroot your tab or any other bad thing? I have not seen this update on my sprint tab.

yes, if your update does succeed. It WILL unroot the Sprint Tab.
z4root WILL NOT WORK after the new update, it will just crash.
SUPERoneCLICK root software WILL work though! =]
Also make sure your LCD DPI Density Level is set to stock 240, and make sure if you replaced such files like WPA_SUPLICANT, to the one that supports AD_HOC to tether data from your cell phones to your TAB, You have to replace it Back with the STOCK WPA_SUPPLICANT in order for the Update to succeed.
Also another user had a problem with failed update due to him replacing the Gallary3d.apk with a non-stock one. So make sure you restore your stock gallary3d.apk if you ever replaced it.

Does the update fix the HID Bluetooth issue?

OTA updates work just fine on WIFI only. I use my tab as WiFi only.
The Update Firmware/Profile features do not work on settings app if u use wifi only, but your not missing our on anything trust me.
You will see the OTA update soon, leave your WiFi on, and eventually other the next couple days youll see it.
If you want it now, jus download the file and install it. Its much easier, no need to wait.

I shut the tab down and booted it up again, the update showed up.
The new widgets are great . Thanks for the prompt response

Noticed Changed (Myself):

- Widgets (3 new ones)
- Ram Management App
- Task Manager
- Clearing ram seems to free up a little bit more now.
- Ram seems to be used a little less
- Boot Logos (HORRIBLE SPRINT LOGOS, YUCK, I want my samsung logo back)
- Breaks root, z4Root does not work - use SuperoneClick
- GPS locked into my location Noticably faster in the same spot INSIDE my house within 10 seconds, where it usually takes anywhere from 30-40seconds. Who knows. Maybe just a coincidence?

I like some of the changes.....subtle, but tasteful.
I uninstalled z4root since u mentioned it broke root, but superuser is still present nor can I uninstall it....
U mentioned superoneclick, where could I fund that and do you even recommend rooting again? I ask because I feel like us sprint tab owners are left behind and there aren't really many upsides to being rooted at this point.....no quality roms are anything. What are u rockin? Thanks again

There's a really annoying bug after this OTA update. The notification drawer pull down animation is now very choppy. Also, if there's anything animated going on when you pull down the drawer the frame rate will drop dramatically. This is a real step back; it used to be perfectly smooth.

Since I ran the update this a.m., I seem to be stuck in USB debugging limbo. It's grayed out and the green check mark is on but feint, so I can't seem to use the SuperOneClick app.
Any ideas?
I was previously rooted but that went away. Also, I forgot... how do I reset the darn thing? TIA

I had notification it was downloaded, but when i went to apply it, the upgrade failed. My Tab is very stock, though I do have Z4Root installed (though, like my Evo, Z4 never did work.)

Market issue?
Has anyone else noticed a difference in the market after the OTA update? Searches on known apps come up blank.

I have z4root and the update went though on mine just fine.

HA!!! I just check and it looks like it didn't take!!! Well there you have it. Now Im curious if the update will show again. Hmmm.....
Also, manual install will not work....

It failed for me on the ota and manual,
It failed due to first, wpa_supplicant i switched from the stock to the one that suppoorts adhoc. So i put the stock one back. Then i tried it again and it said buildprop error.
I looked into that and it was cause i changed the lcd density of the stock from 240 to 180. So i changed it bak.
Then it worked.
Also if you changed any of the stock software it will fail as it verifys the correct files before update.
