I need an old version of ROM Manager - General Questions and Answers

the ROM manager from android market doesn't have my phone listed for the clockword mod recovery. So I can't do the backup and restore or flash or whatever.
This is my first time rooting so I want to make sure everything is backed up. Can't do it without this program.
I know the version I need because others with LG Optimus 3D also can't get there phone with the current ROM manager.
I found it on google but it's from mediafire. It's also the premium version so that's stealing from the author. It could have viruses.
Is there a legit site where I can get old versions?

No need to have ROM Manager to backup or restore the phone.
If you have the recovery installed, just into it. Next go to backup/restore
Then choose backup.

no that's what I am saying. I can't install the recovery because my phone is not listed.
There is an old version of ROM manager with my phone listed, but it's an illegal premium version from mediafire.
I don't know if it's safe.

Recovery Manager
Hey,
If you found an old one, could you let me know where from? I need to flash recovery on an HTC Hero.. alternatively, if you didn't: have you tried the Recovery Manager app on the market? It's the one with the two gear icons, com.simran.recmanager .. sorry, i'm a noob so i can't post externa links. It might support your phone.

Try 4shared

Hi,
I know it was a while ago but can you make the old rom manager available for me, please? I couldn't find it anywhere, even on apktops, and I would desperately need it for my old HTC Hero.
Thank you!

Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
@acmys, I think you might be expecting the Gapps installation to also include all the Google apps. Gapps only gets you the Market app and the automated Google Apps installer that pops up during the initial boot (that is why the Gapps file is only 5 MB - it doesn't have much in it other than the Market and the initial welcome stuff). You still have to manually download gmail, maps, voice, etc. either during that initial boot or you can do it later when you're on wi-fi. So if you've already got the Market app, then you are good to go. If I misunderstood you and you're not even getting the Market app, then disregard everything I just said.
Yup no market
Is there anyplace I can download an APK of market? for inspire?

[Q] flashing cm7

This is pretty much the only rom I haven't tried yet. I read about 10 pages on the dev page but Im just not 100% sure how to flash this rom. I'm currently running miui with blue recovery, so I'm good there. I've already downloaded the latest build according to the dev page, but I have no idea what gapps or whatever is. I read that I can download them in rom manager, I checked it out but there's like 10 versions. Do I flash the Google app then cm7?

With blue CWM recovery you should be able to flash CM7 with a normal flash in CWM. If you boot loop, pull battery and reflash. The gapps is all the google apps you need, Cyanogen can't include google apps in the Rom. If you download gapps through rom manager, pick the latest one. I actually downloaded gapps from the Cm7 wiki. (the link for it is in the OP for Cm7 Rom) Flash the rom first THEN gapps and you should be good.

Ya thats what I meant by normal flash lol. I know when flashing from red you need to format but, I can't remember if I did so when flashing from CM7 to MIUI or if its needed. You can try it without, and if it doesn't work then format, just make a backup before you do. I just remember the format system part is before you flash the zip a second time after a battery pull.

I did a normal flash and it worked fine but the latest version of Google apps doesnt match the latest cm7 build. I tried it anyways but I did work, no Google apps appreared, so I went back to miui.us. I guess ill have to wait for an update.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
MIUI comes with the market which is really all you need ( you can download the rest from the market) CM7 is what needs gapps, best way to get these is from the rom thread, he's got a link in the OP somewhere.

Did you flash gapps through rom manager or cwm? I had to mess with that for a while and could only get it to work when flashing through cwm (blue). Worth the effort though. This is my favorite rom and I'm pretty sure I've tried them all. A lot of them anyways.

I'm switching between Validus and Liquid Smooth. Both are very smooth with lots of customization. Both have very active G+ communities.
You can always root, install a custom recovery and try a ROM. Just backup your stock ROM and you can always switch back. Takes like maybe three minutes to reinstall a backup.
Sent from my SM-T310 using xda app-developers app
If you want the official update for kikat when it comes out, then find the official stock rom and keep in a safe place. When u hear that the update was released use titanium backup back up your apps, then flash the stock and it will say your device is offical and let you update. Once updated, go into download mode and flash twrp. Twrp will root your device. Once rooted, reinstall titanium backup, restore your apps. WHEN USING TITANIUM BACKUP ONLY BACKUP USER APPS AND DATA ONLY. DO NOT BACK UP SYSTEM APPS, it causes problems and makes things crash, its not pretty( I did it ). There you have it. run stock rooted with the newest official update. Of course you could just flash a custom kikat rom that would be easier.
