Polaris office restore with TiBu on MEA - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I recently flashed mint jelly. I liked Polaris office 5. I'd like to keep using it. Question is, would restoring app+data thru TiBu, a backup which was made on MDL, to my new MEA base work? Or would the pre installed app have an entitlement check of some sort that wouldn't allow me to use it?

It most likely will work. I'd give it a shot. You don't have anything to loose. Make a nandriod first just in case.

How to Restore Apps Automatically

I was wondering how to get my apps I previously downloaded on another ROM to automatically restore with a newly installed ROM? My phone is flashed to cricket so I don't know if that has anything to do with it...Sorry for the dumb question....Thanks in advance

Google sync downloads them all. I use adw launcher that allows you to back up app placement on you home screens. Makes it real easy to resetup everything when I flash to a new rom.

flashing without loosing apps

Sorry, I am new and maybe this is a silly question. Can I flash a new rom without loosing my apps and their settings and my games and their saves ? Like backing-up all these.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
If you are rooted use titanium backup from market, but the fact you asked this indicated you need to study more before you start flashing roms
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
hahaha. Thank you very much for your quick answer ! Maybe you are right. The fact is that I already flashed my phone 2-3 times but never interested in backing-up. On the other hand now, I have spent a lot of time with it and I do not want to loose my apps. Is there something specific I should do with titanium back-up ? or I just back-up with this app and then, after I flash, I restore ? ( sorry haven' t used it before )
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Yeah you just backup before flashing, restore after. Bear in mind I don't think it is compatible between cm7/miui and samsung - based roms.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Well restoring app data can cause problems, but that is depending on what rom you are flashing to and from, and like any app you need to learn to use it I recommend paid version as it allows you to batch restore and backup

thank you slaphead20 and jaju123 very much ! I will try to save anything I can with titanium. flashing is much more important for me.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Some games store their save files on the SD card (data or similar). So if you flash a new ROM, all you need to do is reinstall the game and you can start where you left.
Thank you !
ive never had any problems backing up and restoriing ONLY user downloaded apps between cm7, stock and miui using titanium. the only thing which would cause you problems would be restoring system apps..
if you wish to backup messages also and use them with other firmwares u could also use GoSMS, which has a backup function

[Q] paranoid note user wanting to install paranoid android

if you read my last threads you will know i mashed my other note to pieces....
on my desire i would flash roms 3 each week without messing the phone up, so after messing up my note through formatting through cwm while on ics i am a little/lot scared about doing it again..
so i want a little help if you guys would be so kind :laugh:
i dont have the new phone with me right now, but this time i am going to learn how NOT to brake the phone before i start playing with it.
so could you please walk me through this, explain to me as you would explain to a child LOL
so as i understand it, i need to keep to gingerbread then root it, go into recovery and flash the rom from there? do i use the normal phone recovery to do this or do i have to install cwm?
i am a little worried about using cwm again tbh, or can i use mobile odin?
i want to know the easiest way, the most fool proof....
damn i was never this worried with my desire.
your probably thinking "if you are so scared then why bother" right? its just the phone is so damn laggy, even compared to my desire which was built by cave men
cheers for the help guys, asuming i get some ofcourse :fingers-crossed:
Start from a gingerbread rom, then fully root it and install clockworkmod, next boot into recovery(volume up+power+home button together). First flash paranoid android rom then flash gapps, lastly wipe data, cache partition and dalvik cache. Reboot and enjoy

Yes, you can flash from one of the supposedly known safe ics kernels to speed the process up BUT if you want to be 100% safe in flashing to any cm9, start with a gingerbread rom.

Cool thanks, I will just do that when the time comes then, for some reason this phone is no where near as laggy as the last one, and I have all my apps I had on the other device plus more....

So is it still okay to root through cwm and then use mobile odin? Are there any decent roms out yet that have decent s pen usage?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
I also just received my note from samsung after bricking it with CWM. I am so afraid I might brick it again trying to install paranoid android since I have to wait nearly a month to have my phone back in case anything happen.
Just one question, as long as I'm on paranoid android, can I just format or factory reset my phone through settings or recovery or cwm safely? Thanks a lot.

If you want to install paranoid, its cm based which means no touchwizz apps will work on it as they need the touchwizz framework. That being said, s pen still works fine and there are plenty of alternatives to the s apps (papyrus, memo etc). Also I've read that one of the devs is working on getting the s apps onto cm9 somehow, but not sure who or how its going. Also the cm9 kernel included for the rom is safe from the superbrick bug as its has the cap wlerase command disabled.
PA has a slightly different installation to other roms. I would highly recommend first installing stock rootable gb, root it and install cwm. Once that's in place perform factory reset.
Then download paranoid and g apps and copy them to external SD card.
Then FROM CWM recovery, you flash pa first by "installing zip from SD card", then do the same for g apps straight afterwards.
If you have any fc's or issues, enter back into cwm recovery and wipe cache and dalvik.
Boom, ready to go for full on paranoia
Its a truly great rom, very customisable and as ics should be.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Thanks ST, so am I right in thinking if I go the cm route then I don't have to flash the kernel first. It will do it for me? So all I need to do is root it and get a safe kernel?
Is there a free mobile Odin app, I looked on the market but there is only the pro version...

The safe kernel is included in the pa rom, cm9 kernel. So long as you flash it from cwm in gb you're fine it installs it automatically.
Think mobile Odin is only a paid for app... well worth it though. Check the forum, chainfire usually releases free versions to xda community.

If you asked me. I like the stock firmware not cm9 paranoid. Because you will lose your S-Memo, S-Note and S-Planner and also your myfiles and also the MHL. All of this features are important for me. Paranoid is cool firmware but you will loose this apps...

If it is set up to do so, once you enter your Google account credentials it will automatically download your apps to the device. Otherwise you can go into the play store under your apps and download them.

I recommend backing up using Titanium Backup, copy the backup file to the Nexus 7 and restore. This way, your data is also restored. Useful for games or apps that do not have backup capabilities. I.e. Generate data file.

If you're not rooted you can't backup with titanium and the 1 app at a time is only for restoring with the free version of titanium.

Yes, Titanium Backup requires root to function in any capacity.
Is there anyway for Titanium Backup Pro (or another Play Store app) to create app+data .apk files that an un-rooted Nexus 7 could install?
ADB backup, perhaps...

download DataSync in the play store...you can transfer apps and data over wifi.
I personally just sync with AppBrain app market. That allows you to automate the process of downloading some what. Not as nice as titanium,buy it is an option that won't force you to root day 1.

Rooted, multiple users

If I'm rooted and I have two users on my tablet and I install a ROM where I have to wipe cache and system, will the second user lose all data from apps and games like the primary user?

I have not got the device, it might be worth going to the Nexus 7 forums and search if a similar question has been asked there...
However if you are just flashing the ROM ontop without wiping the device, then the data should be there... Best thing to do is Nandroid Backup and then test and find out yourself . If it has weird outcomes then restore
