[Q] backing up apps before changing ROM

Hi,
I am currently trying on new ROMs (ICS for Nexus S i9020t).
I was wondering if I can back up my apps before trying new ROMs and restore them on the newly installed ROMs.
Can this be done? I just want to backup the apps, like gmail,clock settings, gentle alarm (w/settings) etc.
Use titanium

Yes you can.
Use Titanium Backup to do this.

[Q] Clean Rom 2.5 w/ Google Wallet

I had Google Wallet working before when I was on stock rooted rom. Now I'm running Clean Rom 2.5 with crap mods. I installed this Google Wallet from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794727 I did everything the same as I did last time -- changed the build props etc. I tried both variations in that thread (htc_jewel and Galaxy Nexus) but when I try to run Wallet, I'm getting this error: Insufficient secure element privileges for this system image (release-keys). I get this when I'm trying to choose which account to use for Google Wallet. When I installed Clean Rom into the phone, I chose Apex as the launcher, not sure if that makes a different because when I was looking at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810040 they have the download for Touchwiz or AOSP and I didn't install the Touchwiz option when selecting options for Clean Rom. Oh, I'm also using the HD kernel and G7 radio.

Did you previously have wallet installed? Try flashing a different kernel for Clean Rom because the features wallet uses must be baked into the kernel.
Yeah I had it installed on the stock rom. I'll try flashing it with a different kernel. Since I didn't select touchwiz when installing Clean Rom, I'm assuming the touchwiz version of the newer Wallet won't work.. right?

No that wouldnt affect it at all. When you had it previously installed did you after flashing Clean Rom did you reset google wallet?
I reset Google Wallet before flashing Clean Rom from inside the app. Which kernel should I flash? G2?
I got it working. I just installed the Touchwiz Wallet over the one I had already installed. I didn't know they took out the prepaid card, that sucks. Thanks for your help dude.
I'm thinking of using this mod. What's the best way or easiest way to edit the build.prop?

[Q] Back to basics

I have flashed several different ROMs and enjoyed them all but each one lacks a different functionality, (in-call volume control, partition sizing, docking, etc.) that I cannot live without. So my question is which ROM most closely mirrors the functionality of stock without all the bloatware? I just want to go back to using system 1 so I can make use of all my SD storage capacity and not worry about force closes, freezes and quirky bugs. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Final Rooting Suggestion/Help Needed [REGARDING OTA AND GAPPS]

So I've downloaded all the stuff and made my mind to root the device.
Just some final questions..
1) I would be installing Xposed Framework on the device, will it hinder any OTA updates to the stock ROM?
2) If I install a custom ROM like CM, and then let's say Android 4.4.3 comes out... What should I do to update to the Android 4.4.3?
3) What is the need of getting Gapps when flashing a custom ROM? Aren't Gapps already present in Android?
4) Any other drawback of installing a Custom ROM?

Okay searching XDA is the best way to find out these answers, but I'll help you
1.) Using Xposed framework will stop you from receiving otas
2.) If you're running a custom ROM when 4.4.3 drops, all you will need to do is flash any 4.4.3 ROM that drops to update. Believe me, when it drops it won't be long before some 4.4.3 custom ROMs surface.
3.) Most custom ROMs do not include gapps. You'll need to flash those separately. Read the ops of each ROM you're interested in to find out if they're included.
4.) You have a Nexus, they're made to be rooted. Lol

If you're using a custom ROM though like CM, 4.4.3 doesn't really matter. Since it's a custom ROM it won't be releasing an update at the same time as google. It would be whenever CM releases their update that's based on 4.4.3. Anyone should feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though. I'm fairly new to everything as well.
I have not unlocked my bootloader.. And have many things on my device [Been Using It For Over A Month]
I have many apps, contacts, app save files [games], etc.
Will I need to re-download all the apps again? Is there any way i could preserve this data? What all can I preserve.
Also, any Custom ROM suggestion. I liked Paranoid Android, but it releases a new beta like every week... This means that I'll have to flash it again? Leading to data loss every time?

Use helium to backup. We will not suggest you a rom.

Hi,
No need to flash obviously all the new update if you don't want unless there is an important bug fixed or a new feature you want. You can dirty flash (wipe only Dalvik cache and cache partition) so you won't loose your data.

Because it turns into something like "best" rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/best-rom-kernel-threads-t2477889... And you will have 20 different suggestions depending of each users needs, it will not help you more.
You need to test by yourself, read the OP of the rom threads to see the features, issue, videos, etc... read the last pages of the rom thread for feedbacks.
So.. I just want customizations to make android fun.. Paranoid would be fine?

Apps from a custom rom requires particular version of android to work...
And version of your stock rom is different..
