Hi.
I have LG Optimus L3 E400f (LG-E400f).
I'm wondering if I can use roms for E400 and still run safe and stable.
In particular, I'm interested in ICS 4.0.4 - CM9 Based AOKP E400M6 which is posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2146677
More information:
- Model number: LG-E400f
- Baseband version: LG-E400f-V10f
- Operator: PCL (Pelephone Communications LTD)
Thanks in advance.
Actually i don't know idea about E400R, F or D. but almost of E400 series have a same hardware (thought)
just let's make everything easy;
> Root your phone
> Install ClockWork Mod Recovery ( use ROM Manager app )
> DO A NANDROID BACKUP ( this is important before do something stupid with your system )
> Install any ROM you like ( read carefully of guide or tutorial or every single posts on the thread firstly. there's alot of lazy noobs ignore it)
> Then if any something wrong with your phone ( probably not causing by the ROM ), just revert back/ restore your backup.
that's it, you can always try and try... i believe it if you got any problems, all xda members would help you out.

Ok I want to do a full Backup of my Herald, so if it crash that i can go into Windows, fire up a program, pressing "restore old ROM" and it is the way i had backuped it.
I know some programs, that are storing backup datas like sms,contacts etc. - but thats not enough for me.
So is there a program that can fulfill my needs?
( and yes, i read a lot in the forum here - but i didn't found anything or i'm just a bit blind )

So does it dump the whole ROM ? I'm currently playing around with mtty... but its hard to find informations on the avaiable commands etc.
It does not make a ROM backup.
well then its gettings weird and im starting to feel pretty sad about the Herald

When you do a backup of your ppc with spb backup, it will backup everything that is on your device (ROM) that is not part of the ROM itself.
It means that all programs installed after a hard reset, all the databases (mails, contacts, notifications,...) all the registry, and all files not being part of the ROM.
So if you do a hard reset and you restore the backup it will be exactly the same as it when you did the backup. And I think that it is what you want.
Caution, if you do an OS up/downgrade, your backup is useless. This backup cannot be either installed on another device.
Cheers,
Fred
ok sweet - ty fred. another question: what if i changed the ROM - how to backup that ? no solution yet?

This is device dependent. With some of them, it is possible, with others it's not, for several reasons. If you don't find tools or someone who managed to do it and provided the way to do so, well you're stuck... I think dumping is not the biggest problem, the real problem is the restore stuff. Sorry, but it is so.
Cheers,
Fred
hehe ok ok - i would be a step closer to my goal if i would find a way to unlock the ROM/ break into, so i can change files in there...

What do you mean? If you're talking about doing it 'live', forget about that. But if you're talking about changing the contents of the Rom before doing the upgrade, well the tools are already existing and kitchens too (depending on the device)

Well ok - i searched my ass off through the forum, but i didn'T found any solution to get my current WM6 ROM out of the mobile phone ( so i can edit it ).

It should be an official Rom, am I right? If it is the case, download it on the official site and use NBHExtract to get the dump of the .nbh file and rebuild it. Have a look in hermes forum and in xda-wiki
Cheers,
Fred
Yeah it is official, but the thing is: there are no downloads avaiable yet. and thats the point so i'm a bit stucked here...

On the wiki page, I found this:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Herald_Upgrades
hehe been there almost 6 times today - and if you try to download them, they would fail.
And the thing is: my current ROM versions exceeds hell of the versions on that page. so why should i use the old ones ? thats not really what i want to :/

1) This is a 1 year old thread....
2) Have you read the thread or not??
3) Have you read the thread?
4) Read again the thread......
This is a joke..... Right???
I read and searched a lot on the forum before posting this.
1/ Why is there 1000 methods to flash a ROM?
2/ Do I need to do a partition in all cases?
3/ Is there a ROM for 32A that adds multi touch to my device?
4/ Might be a lot to ask but why is there no PROPER tutorial on how to install a ROM?
5/ Can I brick my phone?
Thanks for your time.
This is not a development question. This belongs in the Q&A section. Read the stickies. From those stickies, you would also see a Hacking Wiki for the sapphire.
Read that.

I use MyHero 1.1.3 (32A with BFS 303 kernel) and multitouch DOES work. But it needs to be supported by the software, works great in the browser for example.
Ok good to know, i was not quite sure about it

Erm .. there's only one way to flash a rom ..
- Download rom and copy it to the sd card root folder
- Boot into recovery
- Do a nandroid backup
- wipe
- Flash the new rom
- reboot

Thats what I was thinking too
and my fav question out of the list:
Can I brick my phone?
Let me answer this one... from your list of questions I find it hard to believe you even know what "brick" means (no offense) but you should NOT even attempt to change anything about your phone except for whats in the menu>settings>sounds/display area
and I'll say it again no offense but people like this that have no idea what their doing is why the companies are so against us gaining root access because yeah theres some of us that understand what we are doing and the concept of linux but then you have these people that have NO CLUE then screw their phones up and guess who they call... not the dev, but the company crying about how they need a new phone...
Bottom line is if you dont know what you doing, DONT DO IT!

Well flashing a custom rom means to put another rom in your phone which is better and faster than the original stock 2.1 or 2.2 roms!! many bugs are removed in the custom roms!!

Yeah and also welcome!
Hello everyone. I was hoping that some of you could help me. I rooted my phone and unlocked its boot loader and I want to install a custom ROM but I have no idea how. If someone could give me a couple of links to some guides or tutorials that would be great. If you need any information about my phone I will post it as soon as I can.

I installed the Slimbean ROM on my phone and when I rebooted it, I got a blue screen and the screen went all weird now. How do I fix my phone?
i think the rom is not good, try again, wipe everything and flash it , after reboot
It worked, thank you. I installed the wrong ROM on my phone but I've installed the right one now. What is a kernel and do I need it?

Hi everyone, since I am probably one of the last active Gen8 device owners here on the forum and I enjoy helping people setup their Gen8 devices or just answer random questions related to them I decided to make this thread.
So anyone please if you have any questions ask them here as it will be easier for me to see them and (try to) answer them in a timely manner as I will be subscribed to this thread!
Thanks and hope this will make it easier to help the people out there that might still own one of these devices and is in wondering what to do next.

Sorry for the late response, I was in the middle of the exams re-take week so although I saw this I could not answer.
So I will do my best to help you but what do you actually want to do, are you asking how to install a newer android version (2.3.x or 4.0.x) or how to re-install the stock firmware or how to install an alternative OS (debian linux)?
Hello, same problem here , i want to install a new ROM(?) for my Archos101 but i don't know which one i have to choose , and i'm not really good in english , so if you can help me out
I just want a newest and fastest version than my 2.2.1

Well you can get a newer version but it will surely not be faster than 2.2, you could install OpenAOS Degu (android 2.3) or Cyanobiz (android 4.0) depending what version of android you want, I can help out if you tell me which one you want to install.
Also if you want to improve the performance of android 2.2 I would recommend installing one of the root kernels (either the OpenAOS boot menu one or Chulri's kernel) and then use the app called Milstone Overclock (I found it somewhere here on XDA, I can give a link) and set the CPU at 1.2Ghz.
You could also go multiboot using Kboot (which I actually need to re-upload and will do that now) so you can have newer android version(s) and stock working better at the same time. For root I would actually recommend Chulri's kernel instead of the OpenAOS one, it seems to work better.

I do not have that device but I don't even see a 50c Neon on their product range on the .com site, only a 50c Platinum and a 50 Neon, for the 50 Neon there is this MIUI: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-archos-50-neon-t3210324 but otherwise you are out of luck I am afraid.
