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!)

When I click that link I get the following. Has the thread been deleted or am I not permitted access because of my post count? It says you cannot post with less than 10 posts, but it doesn't say you cannot view. Am I doing something wrong?

Gen 2(v7) to Gen2 (V10)using wbaw's TPT

is it possible using the wbaw's TPT to move from gen2 (v7) to gen2 (v10) without going through the box gen1?

yes. why does this need a new thread?

Maybe because the new member cannot post in the Dev section yet

New users just can't create new threads in the dev section, to try to prevent useless spam threads like this. There is already a thread for this.

Thank you again.

My thread (modified Galnet MIUI rom) deleted without any warning

So guys what you think about current andministrators and moderators? Is it ok? So question is why my thread is deleted and who deleted my thread???

You may not have been following xda rules regarding uploading etc.

I want an answer from a guy who did this and his explanation (what rules I breaking in my post?).

should be in Q&A
nah, jokes beside.. If your thread got removed without a message regarding why, you should have the right to demand it.. Threads disappearing for no reason would be weird.

an explanation is not to much to ask for. At least so if he did break a rule it wouldn't happen again
And learn from his mistakes

I checked, it was deleted by a senior moderator.
The reason being given:
"Reason: not allowed on XDA"
Post script: Redirect will last one hour.

Ok. Why is not allowed and what rule I break with my post? My post was posted 30.11.2011 and today is 08.12.2011 ++ 7000 views, so why I wasn't warned 30.11.2011 about breaking rules (for example to stop development on rom)? Is it ok? ... I waiting explanations about my post what rule I breaking and who and why deleted my thread, and why my post is not allowed, thanks!!! This forum is a serious forum and I hope that moderators are not children that delete members posts without warning, so I waiting explanation and I am very mad becouse I lost 8 days for my development on a rom that you deleted! Allso want to see link to rules that I breaking

I feel sorry for you man, that was unjust and I hope you get it all back

I feel sorry for you too , I don't think you're a Noob on XDA, and hope too you'll be back...

Any Galnet Scotland ROMs get closed down.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
They are not allowed on XDA as off this morning.

I removed your thread because it has come from way above me that no Galnet MIUI ROMs are to be permitted on XDA.
That being said, I am awaiting a response from those same higher-up's to verify that my actions are justified. If they happen not to be, I will gladly reinstate your thread.

First as you stated in the threads OP, this was not your development. So saying you lost 8 days developing this rom is just non sense.
Second Galnet roms have been banned from XDA all together due to charging people for access to roms.
So in closing Galnet roms are not allowed on XDA. Nor are you allowed to link to the roms on Galnet.
Use their site if you want to work on their roms.

General [ROM]Nothing OS ROM Dump

Device: Nothing Phone 1
Source: https://dumps.tadiphone.dev/dumps/nothing/spacewar

Reserve 1

Initial Opinion:
The Dump has TWRP sourcecode. So phone might come with TWRP recovery. Also the Recorder app works in any Android phone. Camera too works in other phones but only Video.

The dump is generated with dumpyara, which runs twrpdtgen on the dumped original boot/recovery image; the resulting tree isn't part of the original, and isn't complete / immediately ready to use either.

@Vishal P
I've changed this thread from [Development] to [General]. As per the stickied guide at the top of each forum section, called "[Info] Guide to Nothing Device Forums (Please Read before Posting)":
[Development]
What's prefixed this way:
Publications and releases of your own development (ROMs, kernels, recoveries, etc.; for exact rules for creating such threads, please refer to Post #2 and Post #3 below)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Post #3 of that thread:
Threads Prefixed by [Development]
This prefix is exclusively reserved for ROMS, Kernels, Recoveries etc. provided they are your own development.
Try to keep the development threads clean. No off-topic posting and no question prefixed with [Development].
Use the report button in the lower left corner of an offending post to let us mods know we need to take action. Don't take matters into your own hands.
Sources need to be posted for all kernels. They're also needed for all ROMs where license demands it. Please refer to Post #2 above for more on this.
You need to use tags in the thread title, like [ROM], [KERNEL], etc. throughout XDA. Please refer to Post #4 below for more on this.
Any disputes between developers should be handled by PM; always try to solve the issue amicably first via PM. No public posting in a development thread regarding these matters.
ROM issues should be discussed within their respective threads.
Thread titles should always coincide with ROMS already available for download. No advance notification of incoming ROM through thread titles/placeholder threads is allowed. A changelog for the yet unreleased ROM can be included in the OP or in another post clearly marked as expected changelog.
All threads prefixed with [Development] that are NOT about one's own development may be closed or deleted. Posters that will choose to disregard these guidelines will be infracted.

Since this thread isn't about your own development, I've changed the prefix to [General].
Thanks! Any questions, PM me, please.
