re: Android Thread: Phones / Apps / Mods

Guys,

I installed Rafroid lite v3 NAND ROM, it is working fine, but I could not boot the ROM without SD card, If I remove the SD card or use other SD card it won't boot. I had to put the same SD card which I used to flash the ROM. Also after flashing the clockwork recovery I could not boot my regular SD ROM. Don't know what happened, any idea ?

I don't think so, however you should certainly make a full backup using "Titanium Backup" and save it to your computer, this was you can restore it in case of a problem.

Most ROM's a re flashed without keeping your SIM and SD Card in phone.
may be something is conflicting, i would ask the developers, then make a full backup and re-flash properly and restore the backup.

Do you have an ext3 partition set up in your sd card to store apps?

SMS backup & restore will save an XML file on your SDcard.

Titanium backup will save some of the apps to its folder - you can then install them onto your other phone if they are free. Does that work for you? The paid ones will of course be looking either for a android market license, or an IMEI, or a SIM card or such.

Sideload Android apps all you want with the Sideload Wonder Machine | Android Central has some links.

on a side note - DONT buy Theft Aware. Its not immune to a full ROM flashing - so its close, but no cigar!

How did you get your LG Optimus One CM7ed? Well. I use P500 and I'm a complete noob when it comes to custom ROMS.

Would you please guide me on how to get my phone CM7ed? Else, please provide me some links.

re: Android Thread: Phones / Apps / Mods

Hey on GS2 if someone sends me a text which has a number and i wanna add that number to my contacts, is there anyway to do it? I cant seem to find any option for doing the same. My nokia used to have an option of " USE DETAIL" which allowed me to use any number in a received text.
