So I'm running synergy latest release but I'm wanting to go back to liquid smooth I've seen multiple threads about data loss and what to do but I can't seem to locate anything regarding the fix. If anyone doesn't mind helping me out before I dive straight into the deep end I'd greatly appreciate it! Thanks.

Just make sure you have the latest CWM or TWRP and if you notice data loss, do this step from the CM thread. Lastly, if you have a network extender, know that only the ICS modems will treat your network extender like "normal" whereas each JB modem will mark you as roaming for your signal.
Thanks for the quick response ill make sure everything is updated recovery wise before I flash

Is there any benefits to 4.2.1
I always like the speed of AOSP and look, and 4.2 is just the latest build of AOSP.

I just wanted to post my experience today with switching roms and i hope this will teach others who see this to read and read and read. I finally got the rom booted and running but boy did i have a heck of a time doing it. I flashed fine but got stuck in a bootloop so i wiped again and flashed still same result stuck well at this point i go back to twrp which i thought was the latest updated turns out it wasn't ( me not paying attention to the file i download great ) now my recovery doesn't show any files just a 0 ( took me so long to figure out this 0 ) and i thought i had wiped my sd card ( that was fun walking around work with my phone held in the air yelling to the gods for doing this to me ) then i sat down and read about the multi-user and the /0 i flashed the rom twice so it took all of my files and placed them in the sdcard/0/0. ive got everything fixed and happy to say still loving liquid smooth. I hope this will help the next person.
Well, at least you learned a valuable lesson AND researched until you found a solution.

Well got another question lol I know I'm a noob to the whole rooting Droid phone's but I changed my rom to euroskank cm9 was wondering why there is a few things in settings I can't get into or there is nothing there, do I have to update the rom, and was wondering about themes for it. Thanks in advance
I was just wondering what the certain things are that you can't get into/select?
When I go into system settings I can't open dock or icon settings but the rom is a great looking rom . There is a few other options that are blank nothing important stuff like themes

If it's greyed out it's not put into the ROM yet

It's just things they haven't gotten around to putting in yet. Nothing to worry about.

I have one more Q about the rom I don't have rom manager paid version, so updating the rom for the features they haven't put in yet will it update thru the settings under about phone or will I have to use Google for that. Is rom manager worth the buy that's the only way I know of or how to change the rom in the g2x

time for you to do some reading, if all your using is ROM manager, then you need to read up on NVFlash. without NVFlashing your phone, if you get stuck in a bootloop, you cant access recovery.
as for changing the ROM, just check these forums from time to time. I wouldnt reccomend automatic updates anyway because most updates in roms introduce new quirks and issues, and if you look at the thread in the forum before flashing it youll get a better idea of what those issues are.
I have flashed a new recovery have had one rom boot loop but have tried a couple like the cm9 but missing a few features I would like to have that are not in it, there so much stuff that's possible trying to find a set up I like lol
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
Read read read and read some more. A little reading goes a long way! You nvflased your phone right? I don't even use rom manager. I boot into recovery each and every time I want to switch roms. As for updates just go to the Site or check out rootzwiki. That is where my buddy dj posts the roms. Here is euroskank Site http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/
Hopefully I don't get heat for this lol

I've taken a long, winding, occasionally interrupted road to rooting my Xoom 3G and by way of the "ROM Manager" app managed to get EOS 1.0 on there. It's clearly ICS and seems fairly stable, if not very stable. The problem with all of this is I never really felt like my brain was absorbing everything I was doing so I almost feel like I accidently rooted and flashed my Xoom, or watched myself do it. I'd like to flash more and better ROMs; I'd like to play around with different recoveries; I'd like to back my stuff up like a mature adult; I want to root my other devices; I want to do all these great things, but don't feel like I've really learned enough do anything. I don't even know if I could redo what I've already done without messing something up. Please, make me not dumb!
well first off always make a backup just incase.... but since youve got a custom rom installed , installing another rom is easy.
download the rom you want to flash boot into recovery , make a nandroid backup, then install the rom youve downloaded, id recommend eos's jb rom its awesome, pretty straight forward as youve done the hard part already,
other devices i cant comment as their all different for rooting and installing recovery etc, but once youve got recovery installed its same procedure for installing a rom, but always do plenty of reading and be sure what youre doing,

Thanks for the quick reply. More questions. What is nandroid and how do you back it up? Where do I find a complete list of Xoom ROMs (or at least the jb one you mentioned)? I always hear about CM -- have they done anything for Xoom? Do I need an sdcard anymore now that I'm rooted? What are some essential apps?

@wesamothman Thank you for the link. So I'm on the right track with eos. That jb update sounds very appealing, but which one should I grab for my US 3g Xoom?

I can't seem to get the url to work, but even if I find it -- I have a US 3G Xoom -- will it work, or will I have to stick to ICS until I upgrade to 4G?
Links seem OK, but yea, they are EU versions.
On that related thread, please ask if that ROM will work on your US device although I believe it will.

ok so here is the deal. my g2x is crashing like the hindenburg several times a day, very frustrating. Tmobile won't help since it's out of warranty. I need all the help i can get when it comes to doing any rooting and/or mods to the phone to get it to stop crashing so much. i have not rooted the phone yet, so advice on the best way for a numbskull like me to do it (superonecilck?). then, advice on what would be a stable mod or rom or whatever you call it to install on the phone so i stop being so frustrated. now mind you, whatever rom/mod etc that is recommended please make sure it is so easy a 2 yr old could do it, because i know me..i WILL screw it up!
any and all advice is welcomed. i am beyond pissed at this phone now and i need to keep from throwing it at the wall. Tmobile won't budge about helping to replace this, only grant me the full upgrade pricing early, so i can give them another $150-300 for a new phone, while new customers come in and get stuff free.
thanks to any and all who respond.

Have you installed the latest V21y software? That seems to have cleared up lots of the problems some people were having with the g2x.

i have not tried that yet....now that I know this I will try though. Anything is better than giving TMobile more $.
I first used this to gain root access:http://www.unlockroot.com/index.html . It's a simple one-click process.
Then I followed this guide from step 2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060715. I personally used CyanogenMod 7.2 http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/2856/cm-7.2.0-p999.zip .
Optionally, you can also flash a kernel: Trinity ELP(http://goo.gl/XqDn2) and Faux52 LG (http://faux.androidro.ms/P999-CM-Kernel-052-sv-lg-stable.zip)seem to be the most popular... Instructions to flash the Kernel:
[ Installation procedure: ]
1. reboot to CWM
2. Clear cache
3. Advanced, clear Dalvik
4. install zip from SDcard
5. Reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If one of the kernels gives you issues, try flashing the other one.
I'm pretty noobish to this as well, considering i only flashed my phone a couple days ago, but I used this procedure and it didn't give me any problems at all.
Thanks. We have full detailed guides listed for new owners in the development settings. Some people have issues with faux 52 kernel, if so try using 48 or 50 in place of 52.

Never had arbitrary crash problems with my unrooted stock g2x on either original Froyo or GB update. If your phone still has problems after the GB update you might have an app problem, or a hardware problem. Update to GB, strip all Apps, and see if it works. If it does, add the apps back in one at a time. If not, toss it.

Could someone please take a look at these kmesg for me? I just clean flashed the latest version of paranoid android and ktoonz kernel, and now I'm having constant hot reboots every few hours. I'm not sure why I'm having this problem after a clean flash, because the dirty flash i came from had no issues. I'm using the same files i downloaded originally. only reason I reflashed is because certain things stopped working correctly like full screen pie. Any help would be appreciated. I've had to flash this 3 times already and each time its something different that happens. Plus for whatever reason my nandroid won't restore correctly. I'm almost at a loss here, i havent had any issues with this phone since ive gotten it and i love it, i just need to figure out this hot reboot issue and I would be back in business.
Thank you

I can get to the homescreen but the phone never activates to make or receive calls.
Try downloading again and reflash. I flashed the new cm and it worked fine.

I'm having the same issue. I've got data, but can't make phone calls.
I've tried using Odin to flash a stock rom and still have the same results.
What version of CM did you flash to get it working?
I was using the 10.1.0 from the cm website. They have the new 10.1.0.1 release up now and I have not used that. Everything worked. Just flashed back this morning because I like bonestock rom features
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Yup
I went ahead and flashed CM 10.1.0.1 along with the MF1 firmware just a little bit ago and I was having a constant no SIM error. Couldn't get it fixed, wiped everything but the external SD and tired again, changed the LTE mode back, still no go. So I ultimately just flashed back to my backup of CleanROM and rolled back to the MB1 firmware for my cameras sake.
I'll just wait until some more of the bugs get ironed out. I really miss having stable AOSP on my Droid Incredible, I was on CM7 from its initial release till retirement and beyond.
It seems like its kind of a hit or miss type of deal. Some phones work just fine, others, not so much.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2344204
Same problem, its just the "stable releases" are jacked up. Flash a nightly and the baseband (and google apps) and you'll be fine.
Oh, and go into settings and change SIM mode from NV to SIM, then reboot. You'll be good to go.
