Hey guys, I need help. After a bunch of app installs on system 1, I cannot for the life of me get it to boot. Even tried taking a backup of one of my other systems and restored it to system 1. It continues to get stuck at "starting apps". I even downloaded the Aromafm.zip and used that file manager from BMM to delete all of the apps for /data/apps to no avail. If anybody has any ideas short of "Wipe Data/Factory Reset" (which will wipe my other systems with it), it would be greatly appreciated.
you can backup ur other system first with BMM .. then you can wipe data/factory reset or do a clean installation for new Rom at system 1..
after you successfully boot at system 1, go to BMM recovery again .. create partitions for new system and restore back you CWM backup ..
that way you can save ur other system and data .... that what i'm doing ......
Just in case anybody else runs into this problem, I had a flash of genius. You can copy the .img files from /data/Clockworkmod folder off the internal to your sdcard. FXZ back to ICS. Then install BMM through the play store, reboot and create your partitions. Then reboot into system 1 and copy your img files back to the internal folder and you have your other two systems back untouched.

Why does this happen ... thanks
I'm using V2froyoXToptimized update v2 v3 update
sorry translation
did you unrar the file and then place it in sdcard/nandroid/openrecovery or just place the rar. you must first unrar khals rom down to just the folder with boot.img boot.md5 system.img and system.md5 in it then place the folder with those in the sdcard/nandroid/openrecovery folder
the procedure that you're saying I have performed and the result is that in post....
so inside the Xtmiuioptimized folder there is 4 items? boot.img boot.md5 system.img and system.md5? and in open recovery when you select xtmiuioptimized in the restore menu it should say only boot and system in the restore options.
yes..the files are 4
restore option for xtmiuioptimized
go back
restore all
restore selected
The directory structure on the sdcard should be...
Code:
/sdcard
/nandroid
/openrecovery
/xtmiuioptimized
boot.img
boot.md5
system.img
system.md5
if your folders match these I would try coping them from your pc again.
Çheck restore all and if that doesn't work your file might be corrupt so try tranfering the folder again.
is the path and just... 3rdstring...Thank you
easye420.. I had already tried I'll try again tomorrow...Thank you
did you try checking the boxs next to system and boot in the partitions sections of the restore menu in open recovery. try that and if that doesnt work and you say you already tried replacing the folder and that didnt work id say your download must have been corrupt id try to redownload it and try again. this happened to me before and if that doesnt work try try making a back up of your current phone and restoring that back up and see if that works. and if that doesnt work try reistalling Open recovery thru the system recovery app and try again. lot of trial and error unless anyone else has better ideas
The ROMs we're flashing only update boot and system. When nandroid restore says "not backed up" it just means it's skipping restore of a partition because there isn't a backup to restore. It's harmless.

if you reed his first post its says all partitions are not back up boot and system included. so its like theres nothing in the folder to restore like restoring a empty folder.
exact is just so happens to me
solved
extract rar folder then take the (sub xtmiuioptimized folder) and put the SD card installed .... ok .......sorry
1. Titanium backup to backup apps
2. Boot to recovery - wipe data / cache / dalvik
3. Flash new ROM
4. Titanium backup to restore apps
5. Rebuild my homescreen and settings etc
J/w how the rest of you guys flash new roms. Anything else I should be doing when flashing a new rom?
Only think I would add is to wipe /system while in recovery. You can do that by accessing the "format /system" option in CWM Recovery under "Mounts and Storage"
Also, maybe make a Nandroid Backup before wiping /data incase something goes wrong

I'll be honest I could care less about anything on the ROM itself. Apps I just reinstall, contacts/email/calendar resync. All my music/pix are saved to the internal memory.
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Wipe boot/system/data/cache/dalvik
3. Reboot ROM and reinstall all apps and accounts
I don't like backing up the apps because I like the "starting fresh" feeling by putting back in the apps I actually want.
What i do
boot into recovery
wipe boot/system/data/cache/dalvik
install the rom/kernel
boot and leave the phone for 5 mins then reboot again =D
I know a lot of users will disagree but I simply nandroid, factory wipe and then flash the new rom. A factory wipe clears data and cache and flashing the rom will wipe system and boot. I've yet to have an issue with this method. I also know how to recover from most problems I could encounter on my own. Additionally, i'm a member of the do as i say, not as i do club. Always nandroid and follow dev instructions is what most people really need to do.

hi,
I had so much stuff on the tablet I decided to reinstall rom...
performed factory reset, wiped cache partition, & installed ics rom again and to my surprise all my data was there.
what else needs to be whiped to delete all wanted and unwanted data?
thanks
You can delete all the stuff from /data/media - its mounted as sdcard - its the content that you see when you are connected via usb. Dont worry, all directories will be created new when you flash the rom again. You can also format the system partition in recovery. Put the rom to your empty data/media directory before you do this and install with choose from zip...
Hi Friends,
I've a problem. Actually my android cell phone "INew L4" suddenly restarted and stuck at boot logo. I tried everything to boot it up but failed. So I made Userdata backup via "Android System Recovery" to Memory Card and its created backup files as below:
userdata_20090101_140936.backup and userdata_20090101_140936.backup1 to userdata_20090101_140936.backup6
I format the cellphone and restore it via "Android System Recovery" from Memory Card but it again stuck at boot logo. So I reformat it and its working fine.
Now I just want to extract my data from backup files it created. Is there anyway to extract it in Windows?
Thank you!
long story short: just to assure myself for everything to go smoothly while installing Lineage OS 14.2 i stupidly decided to tick the 'system' box on factory reset for TWRP along with the standard data, cache and dalvik. now i tried to system restore the backup i have on my sd card and it says error 225 at the end and its stuck on boot!
what have i done wrong? can you no longer restore if you tickbox the 'system' thing; does the backup option not backup literally everything? did my files corrupt? will the 'format data' option (deleting everything on internal storage), then trying to restore fix it? HELP.
phone is a Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 (J320fn) fwiw

If you wiped everything, you can't just restore the system only, the default restore that restored all partitions that were backed up, is what you need.
Or, you can boot into TWRP, then select the wipe option, then select advanced wipes, then select the system, data, cache and dalvik cache partitions then swipe the slider to wipe. After the wipe is finished, flash your LineageOS ROM and gapps.
After flashing the ROM and rebooting the device, if you want to try to restore the backup that you made, boot into TWRP, when retoring a backup, it isn't necessary to do any kind of wipes because it automatically formats the partitions before restoring the backed up data to each partition.

i solved. it turns out i just didnt have enough memory to extract the system restore into internal storage.
what do you mean though? the only problem im having in the stock OS now is that my phone will randomly stop charging and/or display different battery %'s (one time it said i had 89% for 15 minutes straight without charging it. i rebooted it and then it said it was at 94%), as well as im unable to manually update (says my original OS was modified in a non authorized manner)
is there anything i can do in TWRP in regards to either of these things? maybe re flash stock OS? (how would i go about doing that without losing all my data?)
