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?
Was gona tell u how to do it but just saw ur name so am not telling u annoy many people on this forum one big person troxx

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

Ohhh I will try to delete the cache from cwm
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.

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...

I'm rooting a friends at&t skyrocket tomorrow that is on official ics update from at&t and was wondering if that brick bug was still present.I know i might be a little late with this. I was told by a friend that it was only present on the ics leaks for this phone and just wanted to make sure now that this has official ics that i won't have any problems worrying about a brick on my hands by wiping data factory reset in cwm. Go easy on me please I was on the OG evo when all of this brick stuff happened so I never payed much attention to it
Thanks in advance

Regardless, wiping data/factory reset using cwm won't effect anything. I'm pretty sure that problem was the result of wiping in the phones settings menu (if I remember right).

Honestly, i'm not sure. I never really worried about it. Always use CWM for wiping and never had a problem with anything.
I think it happens when you try to format the internal SD card. Its an emmc bug (I think) but I don't have the bug and my i777 doesn't have it. I thought it was on the specific kernel for the i777 and the international variants.

No sense in rooting if your gonna flash aokp. Just push cwm with Odin and flash away:thumbup: you can flash without rooting as long as you have a custom recovery installed

Just follow the sticky here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398
Once you get it rooted with CWM, i'd suggest updating CWM to this version - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777970
If you're looking for the JellyBean version of AOKP, i'd really suggest this - http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34092-aokp-unofficial-galaxy-s-ii-skyrocket-i727-nov-04-milestone-1/
As far as flashing it, I:
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache
-mounts & storage [format /system]
-advanced [wipe dalvick cache]
-flash rom
-flash gapps
-reboot
*you can do these x2 or x3 each if you wish just to be sure everything is clear*
Hopefully some of this will help if you already don't know any of it. Any other questions, shoot me a pm if you need or i'm sure someone here can help.

i already had that version of aokp and have everything installed and in a folder im prepared . And that the same process i use on my GS3 but i use TWRP. Yea i was looking at that updated version i was gonna flash TWRP through odin for his phone but looks like CWM touch looks better on this phone then it was for my original evo and GS3
edit: do you have any kernel recommendations for this phone? I was gonna flash this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949828 but i dont have this phone so i wouldnt really know which kernel work best. He really wants to overclock so thats the only preference he wants to be able to do
Hi, I used this method for my gs2 international. Using the zip method of Cwm and it worked without problems. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28178105 The big bug is also details in the links. Good luck.

Ive just rooted my phone and am keen to try a new ROM.
I am using TWRP 2.3.3.0 and Rom manager
Im just wondering about a couple of things and need a bit of help please.
First off i know i need to back up my stock ROM but every time i try i get a failed message "E:unable to locate sd-ext partition" do i need to partition my sd card to create backup?
After installing a new ROM will any of my existing data, apps etc be left on the phone or will i have to restore all that? I have it all backed up with TB anyway so its not a problem if i have to but i cant find any info on the process regarding the One s.
Can anyone recommend a good custom ROM to start off with?
Thanks

Hey all ! I flashed cm10.1 alpha #6 about 2 weeks ago and to my surprise it was really doing well and I had no plans about switching ROMs again. But after a week I thought about flashing PAC ROM. I made nandroid backup of cm10.1 and flashed PAC ROM . everything went well but when I wanted to go back to cm10.1 , I restored its backup. After it was restored I selected reboot system now from recovery and after then my device just showed me boot animation and was stuck on boot animation only. I waited for 2 hours ( seriously 2 hours without my phone was the worst part ) but still nothing happened
Ultimately I had to reflash the whole ROM again
This same problem happened for the second time when I restored my flyrom v4 backup and then after using it for an hour / I restore the backup if c10.1 (this was the new backup which I made after reflasing the rom) . still it didn't boot , it was stuck on boot animation only
Now I want to try out apex sense but I'm scared if I want to go back , I would need to reflash cm10.1 again
Somebody ease help me out I'm Seriously stuck with cm10.1 now

Why do you restore nandroids?? Just do a clean flash.. If you absolutely have to restore a nandroid, i would recommend clearing the cache and dalvik after restoring(if you havent already done it)..

Exactly. I always keep the apks of my apps, have a vcard file of my contacts and use SMS Backup app to back up all texts. Nandroids may have incompatibility after switching back from a different rom.
Guys it takes a lot of time to flash a ROM then set it right with our choices and nandroid backup is the fastest option BTW this problem is only with cm10.1 / never had this problem with any other backup of stock ROM or flyrom or build 8 by dereas
God knows what's causing this

There's also PhilZ advanced cwm recovery that can handle both cwm and twrp backups. But I didn't find its scrolling smooth enough and it also had some GUI restart bug so I switched back to twrp
