So I decided to run a quick backup of the phone system files with TWRP and I noticed that it has a system_image.emmc.win file that are 6GB in size. My question is this. Is this a complete image of the phone's base setup so when things go south we can use this file to go back to? Or is it something else??

Can you share your backup with me? I just brink my phone and really need to install the system again. I think a lot of people are also having the same problems as me.

I think I found some backups that was posted by jcadduono, https://idlekernel.com/flash-tools/firmware/ailsa_ii_A2017U/B20/
I see a lot of backups which one should I use to reinstall the OS? DO i need to install them all or just system.img only?
To the best of my knownledge, you don't want or need that system.img in your backups. I know on my nexus 6p you don't use it. big waste of space. Perhaps something a dev needs???

I would think that big image file would be the image used for a factory reset with all the program, system file and such so they can just reset it quick and easy. And if that is the case, wouldn't that be what is needed by the devs?

I'm pretty surprised that such an important file isn't already widely available. I expected easy unlocking/rooting and custom ROMs at this point. Has this phone not been available for a while now in the US? What's holding everything back?
Anyway, if you could somehow make that file available again I'm sure I wouldn't be the only grateful one.

if you want to test put it on your sd card in your phone then place the card back in your phone and boot it up by holding power and call, pretty easy from there
no you hold volume down and power when booting after putting the zip in the root of your sd card
hboot will show up white with green text
let it run, tell it to install, follow the steps done.

Not unless you did a nand backup.
yeah just boot to recovery and do a Nandroid restore of the back up you made. Assuming you did this like every ROM thread warns you to.
yes i did the nandroid backup but if i restore the backup will i still have to rom??
You can start by reading the forums and learn what you're doing before you do it.

really man you should read up on this stuff, go to the DamageControl thread and read about it. do a search and see what other people have said about it. 99% of the roms YOU are going to be dealing with are the same exact thing with minor preference variations.
yeah but how am i suppose to learn about it when i dont know what "dealing with are the same exact thing with minor preference variations" even means. How does that help me??
xxxk15 said:

Because you have your Contacts set as Google and not phone, and you back up your apps with Titanium Backup.
Before you ask how to do either of those things, read the little book that came with your phone. It will tell you how to backup your contacts to Google.
Search the Hero forums for what Titanium backup is, and how to use it.
ok thanks!!

there are very few people who will hold your hand and walk you through these very easy to follow steps. READING about what is included in a rom, which i will tell you is ALWAYS on the first page of said rom's thread will tell you everything about that rom that you need or want to know. There are places to look up all the answers to your questions. here is a good place to start...

aaand...im out. before the tridant falls on my head, again.
Ok I'm a noob Hero owner so I'll attempt an answer.
When you turned on your phone for the very first time, after you got over the shock of how cool and awesome it was, I assume you either signed in with or created a google account.
Now after you flash a new ROM especially one that requires a factory wipe of all data, you will have to do that again. Your contacts and email and calendar will all resync to your phone courtesy of the fine folks at google.
As for the apps. Titanium backup seems to be the way to go no muss no fuss.
Holy crap. I've been on these forums for quite a while. I've had three different phones that I've used these exact forums as a resource for modding, rooting, or what have you with all three of them. I've never needed to post a single thing. I will use this opportunity to make my first post, and say:

Yes they did. Said it existed on all of the new TB's they've sold and would not exchange the phone for that reason. It's not really that bad but in the dark, it's annoying.

350 recovery.img
can you post this please when u have time
recovery(350).img
You can grab my TWRP ports and put them in your dev account,
also, I'll try to get a copy of ICS-B4 over to you.
I'll add them to my devhost soon, i'm going to change the filenames to be more consistant with my CWM naming scheme though for TWRP.
It's simply TWRP_<device>_<build date>.<extension>
with <device> being S7
and <build date> being YYMMDD.
All my CWM ports are named like that and I always use YYMMDD for my build dates.
The ICS beta zips I'll leave as is, there's no reason to change those
Speaking of ICS, wondering when a version for stock partition layouts will ever be available.
Really likin ICS on my S5, but I dont wanna repartition my S7
In the process of uploading everything over to devhost.
Currently have all PKGs and FFUs I have uploaded.
I was wrong about custom rec file names, it's
<Device>_<bootloader>_<rec version>_<revision letter>.img
with bootloader only currently being valid on the S7 (either 2.2 or 3.2)
so I'm not currently sure how I'm gonna name the TWRP imgs, but as they already have a working mirror i'll leave it for the time being.
Any chance I could get the recovery for the LG7_514_21700_30.pkg ? It would be appriciated, sorry for the PM it has been awhile since I needed to navigate the forums and get help.
So I have no idea what is going on, streakdroid.com was back up for the weekend but all our data was gone. But now I can't even access it.
I dont know, mirror2.streakdroid.com is still intact and I can still access all my files and steve's files on it.
Is there anything you need immediately?

The files that are already there will remain, and if the dns issue clears up it will again be accessable.

I forget exactly what the bootloader file was called but your zipped rom should contain boot.img and a few folders like system, bla bla bla. To make sure, be sure that in your updater script, contains the correct mounting points/partition points so the zip rom can flash the stuff into the right areas. As long none of those mounting/partition stuff isn't leading to the bootloader. I would ask an Dev regarding those mounting points. I assume you ran this through a kitchen correct?

M,
create an account at androidfilehost and apply for developer status so you
can upload there, or upload it to google drive or mega. I'd need to see what it
is you are actually working on. @sub77 makes a good point, if you won't
test out your own work then why get into it? You would be well served, as emoboy

reading, reading, reading, especially my posts for a wonderful mix of lame humour,
dumb questions, insightful remarks, astute observations, bad spelling, and even

I would imagine because the filesize is too big, XDA has filesize limits for different file types, and I can't imagine an entire rom zip being smaller than the cut-off. Moonbutt74 is right (protip, he always is and even on the rare occasions he isn't he's still much cleverer than you or me), upload it to android file host (you do have to request developer status, but they should approve it within like an hour or two max iirc) or google drive if you're really too impatient to wait for android file host

Assuming you've already made an account and are logged into it, there is a drop-down menu on the upper right-hand corner of the page that should say, "Hey, <yourusername>" Click it and select settings. The fourth setting down under user settings > my preferences should be called "request developer/upload access", that's the one you're after

You need dev status for android file host, not google drive. When making posts use the Insert Link button to link to your upload links. Any file uploaded to your google drive that you allowed to be shared with the public should have its own URL. Any file you upload to android file host will definitely be given its own url. You can copy/paste that url into Insert Link into your post/thread
