1. IMHO, you should extract necessary settings or data and restore to your new rom. You can use AppExtractor
2. No need to delete everything before restoring
3. Your choice. There is touch version out there. Try and love it

Thanks for your reply i really appreciate it.
i was saying that if i wana go back to my stock rom (original rom) wich is not rooted can i restore it using CW?
if i flash back to my stock nandroid backup using CW my phone will not be rooted and it will restore the default samsung rom?
its just my theory though i haven't tried it yet i`m asking question like this for my future reference
Well...
Yes your device wont be rooted and will return to the stock rom.
Since the nandroid backup copies the whole partition. just like Norton Ghost does on the pc, so your phone will just go back to its exact status it was at that time.
You wont need to wipe user data/factory reset, because of the data partition being restored by CW.
Well you are asking for a recovery. How did you make a nan backup if you have no recovery?
Or you used the stock one? if you used the stock one, aren't you able to use it to restore?
Or do you want a new more powerful recovery?
As in the previous post they mentioned, use the one you like, with the most options
A little click to the 'Thanks!' button if I helped you
I just bought and Samsung Galaxy S plus , I upgraded it and Updated it to the latest version .
I'm new to this android kind of stuff, and wanted to root it to get the SuperUser / BlackMarket App, but before that to avoid my phone getting brick I was told to do a system backup for my phone but I dont have a clue how to do a system backup.
Can anyone here kindly assist me ?
Thanks.
solution
You can go into settings and back up thru ur device but if you do the steps right you can back up everything thru clockwork mod when u root you don't lose anything when you unroot you dooo but once you rooted download titanium backup and you'll be good
Hi new member...we have SGS+ subforum where you can find more info,roms,whatever about our phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1270
I have made backup w/ Titanium backup. Find it from market.
titanium backup without root?
That's what I'm wondering since the requirements is phone need to be rooted first.
What should I do to do a full system backup ( not apps ) Just the system to avoid bricked phones.
I think he's asking for an actual backup of the whole stock rom with everything on it. I wouldn't deal with Titanium Backup for that since it'll only copy changes you have like your own apps and settings when you've used the phone for a while. I would use Clockworkmod Recovery to make a nandroid backup of your rom so you may return to it when a problem with a rom arises.

Yeah just root and install ROM manager, and from there install ClockWorkMod Recovery, and then say "Backup Current ROM" or something like that and it should do a full system backup

indeed.... a nandroid backup via CW Recovery is the best thing you can do
just make sure the backup is verified and not corrupted, after the backup has completed
But I'm wondering how if when I'm rooting that time something screwed up my phone is bricked without any backup?
Is there anyway to backup the system before rooting?
Thanks you guys for replying
U can't mate. But I don't think u can brick a phone while rooting it
Hit THANKS if I helped you
Meaning I root my phone then I do a system backup with those they mention on top, if there's any problem I do a System Restore then use the Unroot method? To claim and warranty back from Samsung or even Unroot my warranty will be gone?
recovery
if you have recovery in the cell is easy to just start looking at recovery and backup and restore

What do you mean?
If with my phone backup it's just for recovery files,apps,images,etc..
I dont need those I just want the system so I will be safe

Well in all honesty, when rooting your phone you're just adding stuff into the stock ROM to allow more freedom. But this depends on your root method. Just like with my G2, you install Visionary and run the temp root (no harm there) and then on to the permanent root (there's the harm) but it's fairly safe. Just follow your instructions and you shouldn't have any problems. In the case that you do mess up your stock ROM through rooting, the manufacturer includes a built in recovery (which you'll replace with CWM later on), the manufacturer's recovery menu is able to flash SIGNED roms which you may be able to acquire from somewhere here or the manufacturer's website
Ur system can be backed up via cwm. And yes u can unroot after flashing a stock rom to regain warranty

Question
1 This must be done before flashing the rom, not after.
2 Yes, it will restore to the original backup you made.
3 The rom is rooted, almost all developer roms are pre rooted.
4 A nandroid backup will back up a exact copy of you tablet, if you have large photos you may run out of room and have to delete some.
5 Personally have not flashed this particular rom her.
Hope this helps you,

Ya....you can easily backup & restore Boot.img(Kernel) from TWRP.
Have look it up....
When you are trying kernels which are not supported for your device you will be bricked .Then to unbrick your device just restore stock kernel ...no need to flash stock rom. :thumbup:

I still have the original ROM. I have rooted it.
Before installing Malaysk's ROM i wish to backup the original
I know i can use Nandroid to backup. BUT should i choose TWRP or clockwordmod Backup?
And does the recovery of the unit support restore from this kind of backups?

How would you install a custom recovery like TWRP? Is there a specific one to our devices?
That is exactly my question..
while with nandroid backup you can backupe yourn ROM in two formats (TWRP and clockwordmod), my question is how do you restrore from these backup files since we can not install TWRP or clockwordmod..
My qustion is whether the factory recovery can restore from these backups
