nandroid backup/clockwordmod how?

Hiya, i am in the UK England and have a Samsung Galaxy Apollo GT-5801 which was on orange but unlocked
and now fully rooted using SuperOneClick it's currently running stock ROM and no kernels have been flashed.
so it's basically just rooted.
i have been reading in depth about flashing kernels/roms and seen everyone always saying make a backup
with clockworkmod recovery,
well now i am stuck the apollo according to clockworkmod website and ROM manager doesn't have any
supported application for this model of phone. every time i go to install via rom manager it says sorry this
phone is not supported unless you have installed clockworkrecovery by some other method.
So can someone tell me how i can get Clockworkmod recovery onto my phone with the custom rom it already has?
this way i can make a backup of my nand/phone and be happy that i can just restore it if and when needed.
not really interested in using custom roms i don't want to mess with that side i am happy with the phone as it is
just i wish when holding down power + volume + home button the recovery hboot screen had the clockworkmod instead.
all i rooted the phone for was to get shut of the stock apps taking up space, my phone is now how i like it.
and just want to be-able to make an image to restore back to.
i have tried using premium apps like titanium backup pro but its useless because that only lets you
backup and restore in the phone OS and plus it makes like 150 separate files instead of 1 .img file or zip file
i need something i can backup/restore if my phone one day doesn't boot.
i just downgraded my wife htc wildfire to be-able to root and install cygenmod7 which she is loving.
but that phone has clockworkmod (rooted with unrevoked) so it automatically installed it.
Anyway thats the background, and the reason i really need to get this nand backup working on my phone.
can anyone , anyone who's somehow installed clockworkmod recovery on their Apollo please help me out.
thank you!

Just flash a custom ROM such as Purumod v3. You don't know what you're missing in terms of performance. It's amazing! And it also has CWM pre-installed as do all of the ROMs on this forum. It saves you the hassle of finding the CWM files and having to manually overwrite some of the system files. If you really don't want to install a custom ROM then you can flash the G3Mod kernel which has CWM pre-installed or you can move this file to /system/bin.

Thanks for the quick reply, i looked into the G3mod Kernel it states there that the latest version is available
but when you click the download link to the files the latest there is a kernel below that.
code.google.com/p/g3modteam/downloads/list
if you look there the latest version they have is G3MOD_2.4.1_NON-OC.zip but there is a thread in G3MOD advertising 2.5
but i cannot see or find this 2.5 anywhere, obviously i want the latest as it includes the latest CWM version from what i can tell
on the features list.
unless i am blind 2.5 is not available at the link above sorry not got 10 posts so can't post the actual link?

2.5 doesn't exists only 2.41 and now their is talk about G3Mod v3.0 kernel???
i downloaded that but it's a file that comes with the mystical everyone uses it but no-one knows where it comes from ODIN tool
i thought all kernel files can be installed from the SD card?

WOW fantastic i just don't get it!! how did you find that? comes to something when the
Original Poster who's giving his links out to download his kernels can't even seem to provide 2.5
but yet someone who isn't the creator seems to have all the files current.
thanks much appreciated, wonder why 2.5 isn't on the google downloads site?
all his other files are there just missing 2.5 for some bizarre strange reason

Its because the Dev who uploaded version 2.5 forgot the Google code password and I would recommend using fugumod kernel and the cwm file I posted since G3MOD kernel doesn't give as good battery life as fugumod.
Click thanks if I helped.

wouldn't it be a good idea for him to maybe edit his first post explaining that and maybe putting on mediafire or some other hosting.
lol people like me wouldn't be scratching their heads reading a thread which is all about this kernel but the kernel is no where to be found.
much appreciated guys,

[Q] Kernels and ROMs

Hello all
I had a Galaxy S which i messed around with and changed kernels and ROMS many moons ago. I got an upgrade so gave it to the wife, and shes gone and done something to it. Half the apps crash, voice calls are all distorted, and the play store wont work.
I tried to install a different ROM but Im gonna have to hold my hands up, admit Im a noob, and ask for help. Id like to get the phone back factory (i.e default Kernel and default ROM) settings.
Ive seen a program called EZRom which as far as i can tell, does this for me.
i cant post the link cos im a new user, but could someone ell me if this is what I should use?
Heres are the phones details:
Baseband Version I9000XXjpy
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9
[email protected] #1
Build Number
FROYO.XWJSD
If that EZRom wont do it, can someone link me to a noob friendly guide to restoring my phone back to how it would have come out of the box?
Many thanks
Stu.

nobody?

Ok, its not advisable to use Froyo at this time and age, you should upgrade it to Gingerbread . You can do this by connecting your phone to a PC with KIES, and after you have backed up your contacts and images etc, that you would want to keep.
or you can flash a Ezbase rescue kit, with Odin, from My Android Collections , link below.

Help! CM10 v.0.8.1 not working. Need latest stock Rom

Hi everyone, I am new to the Thinkpad forums. I just bought a TPT and installed CM10 v.0.8.1. However, the tablet is having endless reboots as the Rom appears very unstable.
Can someone please upload the latest stock Rom from Lenovo? I don't have a backup rom. Thank you!

Which one? ROW? WE? US?

Unless you explicitly need the pen-only mode I recommend trying version 0.7 as it was much more stable than 0.8.1, at least in my experience.

in my case the 0.8.1 is very stable and runs very smooth... i was first on 0.8 which was a desaster... reboots every time and lost some productive data also :/ then i downgraded to 0.7 which was OK, but no pen only mode is very nasty when i try to write on the device e.g in university courses...
so now i'm on 0.8.1 and i have no problems...
maybe it helps if you clean all the caches and stuff?

I moved from 0.6.0 to 0.8.1 and find it MUCH more stable. Pen Only mode work quite well in the new 0.8.1 version too!

I did a few factory resets after installing the rom and I made sure to clean out the caches, etc via clockword recovery before installing the rom.
I am not sure why my TPT is rebooting unexpectedly so much.
I rooted the tablet after upgrading the stock rom to ICS, then got CW mod recovery. I am not sure which version TPT I have. I bought it in the US and it is 16gb if that helps.
Thanks!

I have been having issues with reboots as well. I have a US 32 gig and running 8.1. Not sure if it was because I had a micro SD with an adapter. I will try it without the micro SD.

if you have installed cm10 you won't find your Information in the 'about the tablet' section. Just install the app ' Android System Info' and look at system/buildinfo/fingerprints. At the end you will find something like 130_WE (i hope thats not an info about whats used by the cm10 build)/( WE = western europe). Besides: i have every now and then a sleep to death with 0.8.1. I havent had those with 0.8.0. I tried a lot and so far only one thing works - i turned of the light sensor. ( works at least since a few hours)

Arde PRUMA kernel v1.2 S2W and D2W for lollipop stock rom 5.0.2 xt1032/xt1033

Here is the 1st custom kernel for lollipop stock rom 5.0.2 thanks to dev franq36
It is working in all stock rom except gpe
Here is the link

Confirmed working on Brazil 5.0.2.
It does not fix the boot flicker.

seems to be working fine on optimized asia retail rom
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE V1.1 kernel
options available
-color calibration
-added governers
-NO fauxsound - if you read the page, version 1.1 had it removed because of bugs
-fast charging

Is it possible that someone can mirror v1.1. For me it is not possible to enter ******* website

Here is mirror link.
MOD Edit: Links removed. You cannot distribute kernel on XDA without providing kernel source code
(i will delete mirror link if dev ya moderator has problem)
But still u can support dev by clicking on the link given by the dev

not sure what happened, but I flashed this kernel, the phone would reboot each time the apps were 'updated' (as after wiping cache), then i entered recovery and it turned out all contents of my sd card is moved to a '0' folder on SD card, so i can't really restore anything.
Was on stock BR variant flashed with the zip from lost101.
Maybe it was my fault, maybe not. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!

(u may ask him to add it in next release)

Glad to see a kernel for Stock LP finally But surprised to see that our favorites from Xda haven't come up with any release yet. Aero Kernel was the quickest release every time ever after Moto sources. Hope to see Faux, Blechd0se bring back their release for stock.
Anyway, thanks for the share and its going good. OC is still a question, because last time it was found that OC isn't really happening though it seems to be OC'd in kernel tweaker apps
Some News: Android 5.1 spotted testing for XT1033

How????

Dual Booting

Hi, anyone looking to dual boot ROMs on their Galaxy S7 I have made a short 10 minute video on how to do it, I hope this helps people out!

A month ago came from nexus 5 world and I'm big time missing MultiROM. Thank you for the app
However, while installing secondary patched ROM in TWRP, I've got Error 1 - while installing both Lineage OS and AOSP Extended.
I wonder where I can error messages codes to figure our what's wrong with my setup.
Upd. 1 - just checked free space and /system got 0B.
- Does that explains error 1 message (see above)
- how I can free space on /system partition
- How I can get more space on /system partition - to be able to use this app? In other words, do I need to play around with PIT file? Or how else (and more safely) I can extend /system at the cost of interbal storage?

I'm not completely sure how to resize system partition but have you got a very large sized ROM installed? I was running superman ROM and still had more than enough space to install it. You could try to download an app like system app uninstalled and either delete apps like Facebook and install them again from the playstore if they are installed as system apps or delete very rarely used apps like SHealth (just an example, I don't use my S Health but you might)
