Yes you can backup your apk files with Root Explorer, but it will not have your apk data [i.e. app data link to the Market] with the backup, but would with Titanium Backup.

Titanium Backup.

Sorry guys maybe I should of explained a bit more I'm looking to buy some apps up to now only used free 1s but with flash different roms sometimes you need to full wipe and don't quite no how that would work after buying an app then wiping my phone
I assume (and may be wrong) that when I download an app from the market it downloads the apk file what I would like to do is then use root explorer to move the apk files to M/S then back them up to pc for safe keeps or does it not work like that and I just sound like a tool lol
If it is possible then where are the downloaded apks?
I don't want to use titanium backup as some people report problems while using the ARHD performance patch plus was under the impression that backing up apps then sometimes they course problems when installing on different base ie 2.2 to 2.3(gb) which hopefully won't be.to long away
Many thanks again

1, I used titanium backup in both froyo and gingerbread and have no problem. And trust me, titanium backup is extremely useful when it comes to flashing a new ROM that requires full wipe.
2,FYI, your downloaded apps are stored in /data/apps , copy them with root explorer.

Paid apps can always be downloaded again free of charge from the market after a wipe if that's what you are worried about..

That would happen if someone using Titanium were to choose Backup all use apps + system data, then after installing a different ROM using Titanium to restore the apps + system data, which of course would be form the other ROM, which would:-
course problems when installing on different base ie 2.2 to 2.3(gb) which hopefully won't be.to long away

Which is a user fault accidentally trying restoring the wrong data.

Tried a few days ago - everything seemed to be working fine for normal use.
But had my tab reboot several times when downloading a large file. Uninstalled havent had a reboot downloading same file.
May or may not work for you. Probably need to fine tune settings in script but my tab is running smooth regardless.
People should be very skeptical about messing with the memory management in an OS.
Same thing for task killers...they can be helpful to kill an application(to stop it from running in the background), but an auto task killer is generally not a good idea...not on android and not on Linux or windows.
Free memory says nothing, as it's better to use memory then to not use memory performance wise.
Not saying that this can't be the exception to the rule(bad idea to not use the OS's internal memory management), but i'm not convinced.
In android, nothing to worry.
You reflash. You can do anything. Hope you find your sweet spot.

Just flashed this on my ThunderBolt running BAMF 2.1 GingerStripped and my T-Mobile Galaxy Tab running Overcome Hermes.
IMO Overcome Hermes + Juwe 11 Script = Overcome Icarus.
If Overcome Icarus + Juwe 11 Script = ????
IMO it will smoked ipad by mile.
It super fast.
This both AB86 and Juwe 11 is genius.
Thanks a million.
thanks trying this now

How much RAM do you have running this script? My Tab has less free RAM while running it (used: 230mb before and 310mb after the script).
As already stated in this thread, it's not the purpose of the script to give you the most amount of free memory at all times but to optimise memory use for max performance.

No need. Just use root explorer to delete the file.
New Android market available for 2.2 and later.
Description from engadget:
If you're on Android 2.2 or above get ready for an update to your Android Market experience. Google has just informed us that a new version of the app is incoming, a version that will add tabs for easy access to Google Books and Movies. Starting with the more visual purchases, at $1.99 you'll be able to start watching movies almost instantly, and apparently see whether Chevy Chase will ever take his family on a successful vacation. But, if offline access is key, you'll also be able to download the misadventures of the Griswold family for later viewing. Books is now integrated too, saving you the hassle of having to launch the books app, which required you to then open the browser to actually buy any digital tomes. Overall the new design looks cleaner, finger-friendlier, and the addition of Editor's Choice apps should make it easier than ever to get to the good stuff. The update will be rolling out gradually over the next several weeks and, once you've been admitted to the club, you'll be able to download the Videos app as well.
Check out the video preview .
This give the hint How ice-cream sandwich UI will look like. Forget WP7, here comes the boss.
you can download this APK yourself if you're feeling brave -- and impatient. Other link : here

I'm guessing it goes to system/app and then set correct permissions after deleting your current vending apk then reboot but someone will have to verify. You need root explorer or es file explorer in 'root explorer' mode or something along those lines. Obviously you need root before evening thinking of try it. Pm me I you need help. For god sack do a nandroid back up in cse you make a mistake an break your market!
is the current vending.Apk permissions.

Yes, it's really awsome! Just a little lagg when pressing the back-button in the Market... It also shows apps I got installed, but I haven't paid for LOL. Unfortunately you can't update them, well you can but you've to pay then for them hahaha.
Have it installed also on MIUI Froyo 1.7.3. Nice thing.
Rename vending.apk to ...bak (rootExplorer), copy new-vending.apk to system/app, rename it to vending.apk, set permissions to xx-,x--,x-- and install it, ignore the error message, reboot manually. Thats it!
@my_immortal What is the difference?

The only thing that's slower is when pressing the backbutton LOL.
App is slow cause it is not optimised for our phones or due to custom rom.
Update has not reached all devices yet.
When you get gingerbread then it will be by default.
Hope devs will work on it and make it smoother.

First off thanks to the people who suggested the gfree way it work perfectly second Imma a gamer I like to play a lot of hd games and emulators on my touch what I want to know is which kernel is the best for this and for overlooking second how do I flash a kernel /Rom and when I flash will I have to delete my data like apps games contacts and such sorry for all the questions haven't done this stuff yet very egared by the way
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
When you flash its just like your getting a new phone and signing in all over again. For gaming you might want to check out asop rom like royal ginger for the speed and the kernel that's built in.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Make sure to read the first few posts in the rom and kernel threads-most will give explicit instructions on what you need to wipe through clockwork mod and how to do so. Most also will state the initial boot time to take awhile, so make sure to let it sit and do its thing. As far as backing up data, I prefer my backup root but titanium has its benefits as well. I recommend only backing up app data that you need, like games, etc. to conserve space on your sd card. Then like stated above, you will have to set the phone back up like when you first got it and then restore your apps/data...
Ok so any saved games like assassins creed or mobile combat will yo progress in that game be saved or will u have to start over*

Oh really thank u very much & also can I just flash a kernel for overclocking I very pleased wit my go launcher HD IOS theme an others
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Yes, just make sure the kernel states it its for your specific rom-i.e. don't flash a cm kernel to a sense rom and vise versa...try to read through the posts in the thread (or search the thread) if you are unsure. Just make sure to follow the op instructions to a t.
Thanks for the info can u give me any recommendation / links
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
You have rooted stock mysense 2.2.1 correct? Try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941141&highlight=Sense+kernel
Again, make sure you read the op a few times so you have instructions down. Also, when you download the kernel, make sure the file size matches the size stated on the download page...occasionally you get a bad download and when you try to flash, it says aborted or something...
And just to be safe...download rom manager from the market, open it (allow su access), at the very top, press "flash clockwork mod recovery-once that is done, right below it says "reboot into recovery", press that...you will now be rebooted into recovery where you should flash your kernel and rom zips from at all times to help eliminate issues. Once you are in recovery, make a backup (usually called a nandroid)! It is always recommended before flashing anything to make/have a backup just in case something goes wrong. After that, just folklore whatever instructions were listed in the op and enjoy!
Yes I have root mysense 2.2.1 lol I read the op still nervous I download Rom manager yesterday and install clock thingy (forgot name ) ok lol anyways I was a little confused when reading not about what to do but which version to download ?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Also when I flash the kernel all data will be deleted like when flashing a Rom so back up wit Titb ? An I was thinking if all data is deleted wouldn't the back up data be deleted as well or is that on the SD card ?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
If you want better battery, go with cfs-better performance go with bfs. As far as voltage, try the lv kernel first and if you run into some issues, then go with stock voltage. As far as data, when you flash a kernel, you are just wiping cache and dalvik cache-not your data. You are just replacing a piece in a puzzle so to speak and not the whole thing (if that makes sense). Anytime you are flashing things, you should have a backup made just in case, but your data should be ok...
Um I still don kno which one to chose . Which one u think I will prefer u kno what I use my phone for 80% gaming / 10% textin / 10 % internet surfing
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Try the bfs low voltage....if things aren't silky smooth, than use stock voltage. You can get set cpu from the xda forum-just do a search for it or you can but it in the market which is what I did-this will allow you to over clock or under clock and you probably want to use performance scaling (governor) when gaming or just set the scaling to on demand-you will have to play with it to figure out what works best for you. Just make sure you hit menu> device selection> auto detect after you install the kernel....
I have set CPU all ready Um by accident I downloaded this app called tasker every heard of it how to use it for best performance or is that what its used for

Do you have fastboot enabled under settings-turn it off if it is. Forget where it resides-maybe apps>development? Think that is your issue
Today I found this weird app on my all apps list...the app has no name,shows version number 1.0 & has all sorts of permissions....I encountered this app few weeks ago & thought it was a virus & I factory reset my phone,went back to my stock ROM through Nandroid backup & then installed the Hyperion8 pre GM port of Y duos.....& this app is back again today...it was not even there yesterday & there was no device administrator account added before I found this unnamed app....when I found this unnamed app today,I saw that there was Android Device Manager (part of Google Play Services) added as a device administrator...so,could this unnamed app be a system app??? I extracted the APK & did a virus scan on virustotal & Netqin & both say the app is secure.....I scanned my device using Avast,Bluebox security scanner & Malwarebytes (I downloaded this after seeing the unnamed app today) & all of them reports that my device is secure & there are no malicious apps.....did anyone experience any similar app with no name & having lots of permissions?? Plz report...if this is a system app or if this really is a virus...I have attached the screenshots & the apk file...can any dev have a look of this APK plz??
PS:- DO NOT INSTALL THE APK ON YOUR DEVICES...IT IS FOR THE DEVELOPERS TO INSPECT WHAT THE FILE REALLY IS

I think it is the part of the Android Device Manager, if i'm not wrong.

but im not 100% sure

the unnamed app on your phone has full permissions to modify anything on your phone? I'm asking this coz in the screenshot that you gave,the app size is 0bytes & the one on my phone is 20KB & has device administrator permissions...it's only when I extracted the app that I saw that it is a system app & is present in the installer of all custom ROMs
