Hi all.
I'm new to android and I have a question. everytime after i flash(upgrade firmware without resetting settings), all the mods that i've applied will be gone. for example, the calender and contacts mod by BuzzFuzz and the battery mod by taiseer999 which involves replacing the framework-res.apk. so my question is.. how can i restore all these mods without manually adb-ing them in one by one after flashing to a new firmware? is there a way to backup all these mods/theme and then restore them in the new firmware?
thanks in advance for replying

Hello guys,
after I applied a HardSPL and custom ROMs to my HTC 7 Pro, I couldn't restore my backup made with Wp7EasyBackup.
The basic problem, if you ask me, is that the backup was made on the stock T-Mobile ROM 07.10.08773.00-00000 and i wasn't able to update the device to that software number.
I installed "RUU_Gold_TMO_DE_2.01.111.01_Radio_5.65.09.25a_22.45.50.21_Signed_GOLD_RELEASE" and zune automatically updated the device to:
7.0.7392.0,
7.0.7403.0,
7.10.7720.68,
7.10.7740.16,
7.10.8107.79,
7.10.8112.7 and finally to
7.10.8773.98.
For every software version I tried to restore the backup using Wp7EasyBackup, WP7-Update-Cab-Sender and Zune itself - no success. Right now I'm trying other stock ROMs.
Can somebody please help me with that issue? It's relatively important to me, having the old messages...
I also recognized that the version number of the backup is given in the "Manifest.xml"-file in the backup folder and tried to change it, but it didn't show up an effect.
What can I do?
Can nobody help?
Hello all. I am new to this site but have been with android for a while. I just flashed KatKiss 4.3.1_027 to my TF101 and it's running great. I have noticed a few bugs and am not sure if that's just me or the ROM. My quick toggles/tiles do not work. The button shows up but then disappears and I can no longer access it. I also had it freeze in multi window before, took two restarts for it to come back. Other than that this ROM is awesome. I kept flashing a bunch of different ones today and this is by far the best one.
Does anyone know if there's a way to get apks from the ASUS stock software? I really liked that task manager widget that was on there. I also made an app backup using the built in app. I got an apk for that but it was unable to install. Bad apk or just unable? Anyway to convert the .abu file to any other rom? I would hate to flash to stock, restore and then make a different backup to flash back to KatKiss. Thanks for the help guys, this site is awesome.
Stock apk's

You will find that a lot of the Asus stock firmware .apk's do not work with ASOP based ROM's and other non ICS ROM's. The apk's are also customised to be installed as system apps thus conflict with other apps. I made a backup of some of my ASUS stock apk's using MyPhoneExplorer (google it, good app for doing data backups) but most will not install on this ROM.
Tks
Well, Hello.
Yesterday, I decided to re-get myself into rom flashing, as I was sick about oneplus usual delays about lollipop.
After I flashed cleanly first blisspop, and then switched to paranoid, I was not surprised about battery drain so I decided to comet-back stock by flashing the backup I've already made before all of this.
Now I have really enough about custom roms and bad battery-life, on this part imho stock has been better for me than whatever.
Globally no problems, but one annoying : call/dialer on the cm stock app.
The app/contacts works great, it is just that when I have finished to type the number and press the call icon, then black screen, the hardware buttons are active but when pressing back or whatever it doesn't respond..
Calls are working because I hear the voice but so can't stop it.
I was blocked on this screen, so recovery and reboot each time, pretty annoying.
Here would you think that a flashable zip file of the stock app would end the problem ?
Does I have to wait for the next ota to resolve this, or do I have to re-flash the 05Q ?
I tried first some alternative call app, like exdialer etc but it does nothing..
Ideas ?
I think this is solvable..
+ When editing the local user profile (top-left corner status bar) it is not working properly, the picture doesn't want to change as editing accounts etc..
→
To sum up,
I think that I will have to do again a clean stock-rom flash process,
Can I refer myself to these threads ?

I don't know what's broken in my system, so don't really know what to do for now,
to my mind it would be logic to re-install the stock system properly, so..
Thank you by advance, and waiting for your answers.
Hi all,
Been a spectator on this forum for a while now, so thought its about time I said thanks, and asked a question of my own (even if it is a relatively simple one)
Firstly thanks to everyone involved in the below thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/xperia-z1-z2-z3-series-devices-drm-t2930672/page80
The process really made a difference for me after I unlocked my bootloader and rooted... just have a look at the before and after pics attached (both taken in low light without flash).
I'm now on stock Lollipop .690 ftf with androplus adv LP kernel (as the thread above suggests), so my question is: now that I have my DRM function restored (at least the camera low-light functionality), can I flash a custom Lollipop ROM (CM12, validus or BlissPop for example), without losing this functionality? If so, would it be as simple as flashing through recovery or would there be further steps involved?
Thanks!
Afaik drm restore only works with stock Kernel or stock based Kernels
The functions you want to restore with the method of the mentioned thread are only available on Sony's firmware. CM12 doesn't utilize those functions so there's no way to restore them.

Hi Everyone,
Thank you for the great work being done here.
I have a noob's question here. I flashed some font files through TWRP but they keep on disappearing from my font list. I tried with a couple of other recommended font files and it didn't work.
AM trying to figure out if there is a way to remove all the files I flashed through TWRP.
Thank you in advance.
