If you are using goapkrev recovery, then the backup goes into sdcard/goapkrev/backup
If the folder doesn't exist, make it.

Yes you can flash gapps again but remember to clear the cache after you flash it.
EDIT: Try clearing data and cache from clockworkmod again. Also, disable the overclock module from 2nd init and see if it works after that.

Download the nightly this time from tanguy.forumdoandroid.com and flash it again. Clear data and cache and see if it works now.

[Q]problem with instaling rom, it wont go ahead of "ideos" splash screen

hi everyone!
i got this problem when i tryed to instal a custom rom...
i rooted the phone then i instaled clockworkMOD and then i make the backup with CWM and titanium backup.
then i done the terrible mistake of coping the backup i made with CWM to my pc and then i erased it from cell,
to free some space, after coping the MIUI rom to the cell i did wipe data and reset factory seeting and wipe cashe as well as
devk cache, and then i instaled the rom zip and did reset, and it didnt pass the IDEOS splash screen.
due to this how can i restore the cell or istal other rom?
how do i access the root of the cell?
is it recuperable?
here the links i used:
guide to instalation -> http://huaweiideosx5u8800.blogspot.pt/2012/01/installing-custom-roms.html
MIUI rom -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690156
thank you and apretiated!
sorry for bad english..

If you're originally coming from Stock ROM Froyo no wonder why it did not work. You have to upgrade first to Official Gingerbread before installing this particular Custom ROM as the kernel is different.
Your solution is to get back to Stock ROM Froyo. Get it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167882
And do the installation as described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011527

Go CWM -> mounts and storage -> mount USB storage and copy backup to your phone.

[Q] Q Any way to help? ZTE Blade bricked

Hi all. Sorry fo my bad English - I'm russian.
Ok, I have a bricked ZTE Blade - GEN2, China 256Mb RAM.
I've read this topic modaco com/topic/343587-guide-de-bricking-a-zte-blade/
I have some problems, thats why I'm asking for some help.
1) I've used Method 5: The dodgy ZTE firmware flasher
At the point Flash Firmware - 6)When finished it should boot into FTM mode. - but it doesn't.
I've took out the battary, and rebooted my phone in the FTM-mode. Succesfully restored IMEI (got no errors).
And then:
Put clockworkmod in the recovery partition
Take out the battery and turn on the phone. Clockworkmod should load
There is no ClockWork! Only FTM...
Installed ClockWork via cmd script. It has loaded, but here is the next problem:
"You can now flash a ROM"
I've tried to flash Swedish_Spring_RLS5. So I mounted system and data.
Installation ok, but if i reboot i get clockwork.
Tried to flash image.bin from zte-website. If i reboot after the installation i get clockwork.
Tried to get stock recovery. Installed it via cmd script, but it doesn't load.
I get FTM-mode.
There is no phone-workshop in my city, and I have no more warranty for this smartphone, so i hope you can help me. Thanks.
At the beggining the problem was - the boot was down. The splash appeares, slides to right, the phone reboots.

Try reflashing clockworkmod and do a full wipe.
It might also help if you format system.

doesn't helped
Ok, reinstalled cwm, have done all wipes, formatted system,data.
Tried to flash.
Nothing. Reboot => CWM

Does the rom flash process success?
Try flashing another rom.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

yes
yes, it does. i get no errors, and
there are files in the system partiton.
when i make a backup i see all the files from the os.
have tried. cm7, cm9, other stock: 2.1, 2.3 - every gives the same result - only cwm is loading.
when i flash the stock recovery - then i get only ftm on load.
is my phone totally bricked? i hope there is a way to restore...

It's semi-bricked. You could try to flash stock rom with ftm and root it with z4root.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

ok
ok. i will try P729J_2GW900V2.2.0B01-NO_RECOVERY-update_signed.zip
will update this message when done.
--- upd
tried:
1) china tpt's
2) all wipes and formats
3) all mounts + flashing Swedish_Spring_RLS5
4) boot.img via adb
result: ANDROID Loaded, but the hardware keys are not working... UrbanDrawer, any ideas?

Just reflash rom and wipe data.
If the problem didn't get fixed, flash another rom.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

no success
Flashed a stock China ROM.
No success. Boot info FTM. No way to boot the system...
Tried another ROM's for 512Mb models - same result: FTM-mode :crying:
Any other ideas?

Before doing this, you could also hard reset the phone, that way there's not going to be any software-related problems.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

what i do
Ok. What i do.
1) Launch ZTE Flasher, swich my phone into download mode (vol+/vol-/power)
2) Flash IT (China v880 Firmware)
3) When finished - release battery.
Turn on and get FTM-mode, no clockword or smth. else. Only FTM.
4) TPT's : China v880 GEN2 TPT's.
When finished - the phone doe's not reboot. Need to release the battery, and to power on.
5) Oh my God! Yellow CWM!!! :laugh:
I mount data,system.
All wipes.
Format all, except SD.
6) Flashing ROM.
7) Reboot.
After the reboot I get CWM (on stock rom's) or FTM (after CM).
What am I doing wrong?

Try method 1.

2 Serious problems

I have been a Samsung Galaxy Y user for more than a year. I have to say that this device is awesome. But.... I have later noticed 2 problems.
1) One day I tried to install Elegance ROM. I followed all steps very carefully and when the installation was done, I rebooted my phone. Unfortunately, my phone booted up again at Samsung stock firmware. I tried to enter recovery mode because I wanted to see what went wrong, but I was automatically redirected to CWM recovery. I tried once again to install Elegance ROM, and the result was the same. From that day, CWM is my default recovery. Why? How to fix this??? I can't access stock recovery and I also cannot install any custom ROMs. How to fix this?
2) Even my SD card is full with songs, photos and videos, the "Gallery" and "Music" apps don't read any file. Why? How to fix this?
P.S. I'm running stock 2.3.6 rooted.
Thanks for help.

You have a permanent cwm because you are using a custom kernel with a permanent cwm - probably was included in the rom zip
If you want stock recovery flash stock kernel (can be found in general section or flash hells fusion #50 from dev section and select option to flash stock kernel)
you would of remained on stock rom after flashing another rom because you didn't mount system in cwm before you flashed the zip
As for your other problem flash stock rom via odin as you have probably mucked something up from flashing zips incorrectly

So.... If I flash the stock kernel, will I be able to access stock recovery and flash CWM every time I want?
By the way, this mess with the files started when I changed my phone's SIM card. When I turned my ohine on again, I opened by mistake the "Galery" app. I noticed that no images were there. I also thought that the "music" might also had the same problem. And that's what happened. Which Odin version I will need?
Thanks again.

Yes stock kernel = stock recovery and you can flash a temporary cwm
there is no problems with a permanent cwm in custom kernels as you need cwm to flash roms
If you goto phone settings about phone it will show you your current baseband - for example mine is xxlf3
You can either download that stock rom firmware from dokys thread if there or any other from your country

Thanks everybody. You are all really helpful. I appreciate your help. But tell me, do I need to mount system before installing Elegance? And while I'm having a custom kernel installed, can I flash roms or I need the stock kernel?
Thanks again.

Follow instructions on the op of the rom you want to flash
you must always mount system before flashing a zip else nothing will happen - you can flash zips all day and no changes would happen as it can't write to system as it's not mount!
As a general rule
wipe system
wipe data
wipe cache
mount system
mount data
mount cache
flash zip
format data (not always required just for some roms)
restart
you do not need to go back to stock to change rom
There are guides in general section - please read them first then you would understand the process

Need help updating nightly

S3 I9300
Pacman rom's. Nightly
Latest CWM touch
Problem I'm having is every time I try to flash the nightly update, it says update complete then when I reboot the phone goes into a bootloop and have to restore from backup.
Using CWM I have tried installing zip from SD card as well as from the external SD card.
I have wiped cache & dalvik cache after install and even tried wiping before and after zip install. Still get the bootloop.
Even tried installing using Rom Manager and get the same bootloop.
Do I need to change the file name or something? I'm kinda stuck. Any help would be great.
Thanks guys
I don't have a PC so can't flash with that.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

I'm sure about your phone, but with mine, I just waited a couple of nights for a new nightly. I'm on nightly from 11/9/13 and its been working OK. With it being a nightly, there's always gonna be problems. So I wouldn't worry so much about that, and just wait for the official. but then again, I'm no expert.

are you using a custom kernel? if so the bootclasspath is probably borked.
