If you want to play with kernels, do a nandroid backup first. Then flash kernel over kernel over kernel and play to your heart's content ... until you screw something up. Then restore your backup
Backup takes what, 10 mins?

I just want backup of kernel that shouldn't take much time.. I guess using advanced backup of only system partition might save a little time but i wish i could backup only those folders which contain the kernel files

if not, what can i do to backup my whole system coz i would like to flash to the timat kernel
please help and thanks alot

Yes. Click "backup and restore " inside CWM. But you can't do a backup if you have more than 4 gig. So if you have a lot of apps, games, or data forget it for now

Is there any problem with frequent flashing of roms?
I mean,does switching from one rom to another every week or in a weekly manner cause any damage to the phone ?

I flashed roms more than 100 times and no problems till now
since it's noob questions about roms i have a couple of doubts that's been stopping me from trying Creed 3.3
after flashing the new rom i have to reinstall and reconfigure all the apps right?
do i have to manually remove the one installed on the sd card?
can i create a backup image to restore the phone as it is now?
thanks in advance if someone will answer these silly questions

Yes you should backup all your apps before a new rom. For that you should use titanium backup application(keep the apk file of it app in ur sd card). Backup all your apps using the batch backup option in the app. Then after installing new rom just install titanium backup app and restore all your apps. And about contacts,copy all your contacts to sim.
nice thanks!
didn't know i could restore the apps on a different rom
now i'll try to find a way to do a complete backup of gingerbread to restore in case i want to revert to the original rom
You can backup entire gb stock rom, as an "image", using pratyush's modded version of cwm5...

Hi, recently I've installed a rom,
and now I have 2.5 gb less than before in the sd-card.
When I install a rom, where does it put it ?
I have less space now and it's bothered me :X
(I removed the zip file of the rom from the sd-card).
Ohh and I installed TWRP, but replaced it with CWM. Maybe the TWRP is still on my sd-card and take space?

If i'm not mistaken, there should be a CWM recovery to resize your cache partition. Of course, your device should be rooted.

Could be your nandroid backup. Or just repartition through recovery. Make sure to backup first.

you SHOULD know that when you are using cwm recovery, you are tamping with your device, and if it goes wrong it could or could not be fixed.
read the forum for instructions, or just google it

I think that the rom took more space, because it has some more stuff than the stock rom
I'm on leeedroid v2.1 and didn't loose any space from when I was on stock strange.... Try leedroids Rom when he gets the update

@LalyGirl, The ROM should be in the system partition. If you have Titanium backup it should tell you the break down of of internal storage, sdcard ect..
or get "Quick System Info" app.
As for recovery, if you flashed CWM it is written to the recovery partition so it will overwrite the TWRP you had.

I did a titanium backup before flashing Cleanrom 4.5 to include rpm and radio. I was very happy with cleanrom 2.1 and need to revert back due to poor battery life, very poor. Can someone help with the steps to revert including tibu help? I tried a search, but the search function is temporarily unavailable. I only see restore apps and data in tibu and not sure if that will revert me completely. I also think I need to flash the old rpm and radio, but am not sure. I waited 2 days for the system to stabilize, but no love. I also loaded crap mods and acidmusic mods, but don't think that is the battery drain problem. I am on vacation and need to fix this as I need my phone battery to last. Any help would be appreciated.

Titanium backup is only for apps and data to revert to 2.1 you will need to flash it in recovery and then flash the modern separately.

Found it on my sd card. As soon as the phone charges I will give it a go. Thanks for the quick responses.
Also don't forget, you will need to do a "Wipe/Factory Reset" before you flash CR2.1

Thanks. I wiped everything. Reverted back and battery life instantly improved. Will wait for a clean rom kernel before I upgrade again.

I think Paul O'Brien from Modaco was already testing some early builds of TWRP, but I'm not reall sure right now.
You can still make backups with ADB. They're a bit different, but at least, you have a backup.

I downloaded this app and did a nandroid, which took FOREVER, but at least now I'm safe, should I ever need a backup, right? Because I'm on verizon with the moto g so there's no custom recoveries that I know of… barely have root!
So, I'm safe right?
