hey
I'd like to know whether it is possible to update your custom rom: for example I have Nextgen 2.1 and want to update to 2.2 but when I flash it everything is deleted. Is there an option to only update it and not flashing it?

I currently have a custom ROM (Axura on Vibrant) and I"m wondering when I want to update the ROM do I have to competely wipe the device again or just install the ROM over the current one and their wont be any problems and all current data will remain?
Does anyone knows how to remove froyo 2.2 from mytouch fender? Ineed step-by-step!!!
Why do you want to "remove it"? It is your operating system, you need it for your phone to work. Do you want to use a different version of Android?
if u want to install new custom rom so u can remove ur default os by install xrecovery and install custom rom and flash it in recovery
I currently have a 19020T Nexus S running MIUI running build number MIUI-109020 on GB 2.3.5. How exactly do I get to the official ICS from Google?
I read somewhere that you need to flash to stock GB and then flash the official ICS ROM. How do I flash back to stock from MIUI? Sorry If this is kind of a noob question :\
I check on ROM manager and I have a backup of stock GB from 3 months ago. Should I restore to that?
you can directly upgrade to ice cream sandwich by flashing the full 4.0.3 rom package from recovery mode don't forget to wipe data and cache partitions to avoid issues
Can I flash it from ROM manager?
You can but it is generally better to do it all via recovery manually. Its not hard at all.
So I bought Nexus S from second hand recently mostly because it will get official ICS support from Google.
So because it's second hand buy, I really don't know if I'm using original bootloader, kernel, radio etc.
It's rooted (because I have Superuser app), I think it has stock 2.3.6 android (build number GRK39F) and kernel version 2.6.35.7-gf5f63ef, [email protected]#1.
Can someone who use stock android and original kernels confrime to me that this is right version?
I really want to update to ICS using incremental update which I found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445635) but I'm affraid to don't screw something because of bad experience when I radio bricked my desire
Can I update it to ICS or I need to do unroot or something?
Just download the correct stock ICS rom for your device (if it is I9020T or I9023) ,put it on the SD root and then flash it using the stock or CWM recovery and be done with it (if you need the ICS)
most likely you won't be update by OTA because you are rooted (system file verification will fail)
just download stock ICS ROM and flash it ...
Ota will install fine if its a stock rom with just root. The update script basically checks that everything that should be there is there . If there is something else in there like su it don't matter.
flashing a new rom is the best way to go if you have cwm installed already
I succesfuly flashed ICS and first impressions are very good.
But I think I lost recovery...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
flash a CWM recovery via adb , or there is TWRP recovery in DEV section , which is very good .
Has anyone else had problems trying to install roms like cyanogenmod after the Jellybean update? I used to be able to install CM9 nightlys then eventually stable releases and back to stock with no problems, so i am not a noob to flashing roms. Now after I updated to stock 4.1 I cant install CM10 or any other custom roms. I have tried installing through CWM and TWRP but cant get past the ASUS screen after flashing the usual way. I heard there was a change in partition sizes when the update applied. Is there a way to install custom roms again or am i doing it wrong now?
