[Q] Zips Creamed Glacier..need help

Sorry, Noob here..my 1st post, actually.
I installed zip's creamed glacier 3.11 after using 3.10 for a few days. My problem only is that I backup everything to my pc before I install any rom and once I installed 3.11 the option to switch to storage doesn't work. Sooo...I ended up reverting back to 3.10 so I could reload all my music, pics, etc...
My question is, was this supposed to be fixed and it was just me that was the problem or is this a problem for anyone else?

definitely a noob LOL, youd have much better luck posting in zips thread... technically, thats where you SHOULD be posting..
i dont use zips so i cant help you but yea.. ask in his thread for results gl

yes, a noob
...exactly why I can't post on his thread...you need at least 10 posts... quite ridiculous if you ask me.. How am I supposed to post on a thread if I have to start one on my own just because I'm new to the site?
Rules are rules for a reason, I guess...

He is gonna put a new update with the fix but if you can't wait for the update flash the newest version and install USB mount or any other 3rd party from the play store.

oh, sorry.. lol my fault, completely forgot new members had to wait to post in dev..
seems like a dumb rule to me too but i guess they want you to get used to the site first.. they take the dev section seriously lol

I experienced the same when upping to 3.11, however I'm not too worried. The only thing I needed to add was the low mic fix and I just emailed it to myself.

Download Multi Mount app or
use adb push method to copy files to your sd card

depending upon your recovery - you may have options there too. i use clockwordmod as my recovery - you can mount the usb from the cwm recovery, copy over your files and then update without having to restart, etc. (you can even back it up from cwm)

Questions - Look Here First

So now that we have our own Q&A forums, you guys should:
1. Search to make sure your question hasn't been answered yet.
2. Do not ask me or any other mod to close a thread just because your question was answered. Only if you see an argument coming.
3. Make sure you are clear and use English.
4. Be sure to thank those who help you! They helped you, the least you could do is give a simple thanks!
5. Be respectful to others, don't call someone noob, stupid, or any use any profane language just because of their question, just remember you were once there too!

Much needed
hi good work by mod ..i came across highly profane words used like noob etc..so please be good & treated good...in galaxy y section there is a lot of questions to be answered so help us ...do updated roms.....

Many new users read this thread and forget the first point. SEARCH! But they don't. Instead of that, they create new threads in our Q&A section with questions that have been asked a million times.

request for Sticky thread about Backup and Restore
Hi
Can you make a sticky thread about a step by step guide to backup and restore the existing phone data and software(and everything else, so that anyone can comeback to present position anytime) before trying anything new.
I am a newbie and recently bricked one of my phones by trying a update(and still searching for proper firmware to restore it). I know that searching may yield some result but if there is a sticky thread, it will be helpful for people like me. I know there are stock roms available but nothing beats getting the good old phone back as it is with a feeling that nothing happened.
PS. I have installed CWM and tried the backup option there.However while backing up data it showed " failed to mount /data partition(backed up boot image and other things, but where I do not know(may be on SD card, but cannot find)). My phone is rooted and on original firmware (working perfectly). Samsung kies has a frequent crashing problem on winXP. So dared not use it.

If the backup was completed you can see a folder named
Clockworkmod.
You can find your nandroid backup inside backup..

It contains 3 files
recovery.img
boot.img
system.rfs.tar
It said during backup that could not mount /data. Will it affect in anyway during restoration? Will I get back my contacts, pictures and games? I like to try the jellybin firmware available here but also want to comeback to my present position if I do not like it. Is this backup sufficient for complete restoration or I have to do something else ?

I don't think that the backup will work..
Generally the backup has 4 files
Nandroid.md5
System.rfs.tar
Cache.rfs.tar
And
Data.rfs.tar
By the way if you want the stock roms nandroid backup (without data ie. Factory resetted) I can provide you the links..
Kernel is not included.
Hit thanks if I helped you.

Would there be a possibility of having a Jellyblast custiom ROM with Merruk kernel?
I am currently enjoying my Jelllyblast V3. I read that we could overclock the unit. The thing is I have read most posts here but I am having difficulty understanding it. Most instructions are to techinical for me. I am hoping that the next Jellyblast custom ROM will have an option of either having a Kuro or Merruk kernel. But if there is a much simpler way of installing Merruk, I would like to know.
Thanks!

Will it help to restore me to everything like a new one (except the data) purchased fresh from market? Then please provide the link. BTW, I am using CWM Ver 5.0.2.6. Are you sure that the above four files will be produced ? I have taken the back ups twice with same set of files available.The data partition could not be mounted in both the cases.

Hi guys, please search the Q&A forum to look forward an answer to your question, if there isn't one, create a new thread there. This thread is not the place to ask questions! Thanks!

my phone works fine unless I insert the memory card.then after a few minutes it freezes and reboots without powering off. Then it restarts, freezes and again shuts down.removing the card fixes it but then I can't use my apps songs and videos on my memory card. That card worked fine for almost a year (I didn't test it on some other Android device but it works on non Android devices)
My Recent Activity
a few days ago I decided to deodex my phone using a flashable I found somewhere...it all was working fine except for a few FCs and sometimes it froze but after some time it would get back to normal.then I installed a few apps like undelete and ROM toolbox pro.I changed the boot animation too. So once I was using opera mini web browser and my phone froze and turned off in the same way I mentioned earlier... I tried clearing dalvik cache and the cache partition in recovery mode but to no avail.I also removed a few apps I suspected may have been the cause but that too didn't work.
I hope the experts here help me out with the issue soon.

As it is more of device-specific question asking in the HD Mini General section would have been a fine solution. You'll get more feedbacks from there.
EDIT: And also, that's not a dumb rule, and its kept for a reason. You should follow that. And about your query, gapps shall be flashed from CWM recovery to get Android Market/Talk etc. on your device

The remote was never deleted, quick memo is a "bug" and I left fmradio, I actually commented it out, as some use it. In v3a quick memo, lg clock and fmradio will be deleted.

Lg home, lg keyboard, and lg application manager can not be removed. It causes severe problems on a clean flash or if a factory reset is done. The system goes into a eternal set up loop as it won't set Google now launcher or keyboard as default reliably. You missed the great nexus edition debacle of 2014.

Okay now I understand must have missed something what was this great debacle?

i'm having error 491 trying to update play store services :\

It didn't work! [emoji79]
Every time I flashed and thought I had it something sorted out another issue arose. It was either no keyboard, or the setup loop.
Basically the ROM need to launch the EULA to let you in and it won't do that if lghome and/or application manager isn't there.
Replacing the keyboard was just as flakey.

Anyone else? Shouldn't have anything to do with this as it doesn't touch anything but lg apps and services.

Haha I again yes I got 491 too, didn only happen after flashing the remover, can't give further details cuz u reverted to my last backup pardus HD need that stable with everything working

Thanks for the script. Tried it out last month and it was mostly great. I'm wary of using it again, though. My main issue (other than the build.prop edits) was that it caused the hidden settings menu not to work. Can anyone confirm that it still works after flashing the script? (I'm on a D802 if that makes any difference.)

i can test after the new release

Thank you for your Best of the work. however if you add some description after each apk it will be really apperciated. i know you added some but most of them are not commented so i did debloat some of the nesssary app:crying: i have to reflash the whole rom to make them back.

Sorry, but it was documented that most lg apps would be uninstalled, and the big ones people might miss was put in the op. Having a backup as well.

FC Samsung apps

Hi.
I was busy debloating and I've gone a bit too far.
All samsung apps which index the file system force close on me.
Gallery, My Music, Videos, My Files...
Do any of you know which framework, service or apk they all rely on?
Thanks.

You mean forum.... it's development bcos I'm building a bloat free SD English ROM, and I can't figure out which of the 589 files I've removed is causing the Samsung app fc's.
But I'm also more than happy for a mod to move it the thread.

I agree that this is wrong forum/thread. If CM12 PORTING thread was moved from development thread even though there was clearly active/documented development going on on a daily basis simply because Mods could see a working ROM at the time then this thread definitely needs to be moved or I declare shenanigans!
Anyway, have you thought to pm SkywakerZ? He has developed the SmartDebloater Tool so he may be able to give you a hint of what you can and can't safely delete.

OK, sorry for posting the wrong forum.
I've seen SmartDebloater, but it doesn't go deep enough also it (and all the other scripts) don't remove knox properly... (/init.container.rc needs to be addressed) and boot still requires a knox encryption class.
I wish there was a tool like procmon in windows for Android.
If nobody knows which framework or component all those Samsung apps require I'll just put everything back and start again.

making roms (system updates) is easy I've been doing it 1/0 since Win CE, XDA 2 (WinMo 2003). Making generic roms which everyone likes and answering their questions is hard.
[Update] Nothing in priv_app, app, framework or lib fixes my issue even with f.reset. So I'm stumped but I think it might have something to do with knox.
