Dem, I'm really tempted to try all sorts of ROM, but it's very annoying that I'd have to set all my applications back. Can we somehow save our application's settings with Titanium Backup or something?

Still worth to get a 2nd hand n1 now? Gonna trade in my legend to n1

yup. u can backup applications and setting using titanium backup.

commenting in this thread is like entering the shrine of sifus.

Anyway, I wanna know what's the difference of the backup from Titanium Backup and Rom Manager's backup option?

I sort of understand that the backup option in ROM manager is actually a Nandroid backup that backs up the entire ROM, am I right? But does this backup include the apps and smses and stuff? I've made a backup using ROM Manager and it's about 800MB big.

Rooted my Desire Z and trying out to figure out the best way to make a backup before flashing a custom ROM.

You kidding bro? Of course its worth it! While the whole Android Nation is waiting to get some Froyo goodness, we are waiting for Gingerbread which will be out very soon now (I am already even running it!). Even after almost one year, the Nexus One still feels like brand new device and the fun is never ending. What device would you like to compare with it? Bring it on

Titanium Backup - Backups all your applications and settings on your phone memory to the SD card
ROM Manager - This is called nandroid. Its an "image" of your phone of the particular state. If you restore this, your phone will return to exactly that state where you backed it up. EVERY SINGLE THING. and yes, it does include apps and smses - everything that is on your phone.

You would restore the Titanium Backup after a successful ROM flash. You would restore the nandroid if something fails or goes wrong - or the ROM that you are using doesn't fit your flava..

that explains the need to make a titanium backup. Forgot about the issue and flashed CM6.1.1. Softkeys did not work. Restored nandroid backup and the 2 levels i advanced in angry birds today disappeared .

So if i happen to flash some update.zip files that are supposed to tinker with the phone (like a trackpad wake hack), and if I don't like it, restoring the nandroid backup will effectively 'remove' the trackpad wake hack, right?

Much like the system restore function on Windows, but a FULL 100% backup?

i just flash back to gingerbread rom i feel alot snappier and smooth, before this use Miui rom but the latest update i have reboot and restart alot and feel frustrated when doing something my N1 reboot, have lot of bug in miui rom lately.

I know the awesomeness of n1 that's why I'm planning to swap my legend to this; just that there's nexus S, desire HD and probably dual core android devices coming out soon.

Saw some n1 sales thread in garage sales, and my Legend kinda limiting the capabilities of Android, that's why I have the thought to get one

My nexus one is still very fast and smooth. Has been trying a lot of different Roms and recently go back to stock. w8 for 2.3 ota..

anyway I already ordered an Nexus S, still thinking shall I sell my n1..
it's a nice phone..so hard to choose

battery use in gingerbread in very good compare to froyo, i can last whole day and if i use froyo only last half day.

when the official OTA 2.3 coming~~~?

woohoo~ I'm so jealous you can own N1 and NS:drool: lol...if im were you i will keep both as collection, since we are google fans right both model also very nice

if keep both one will be full of dust..
i love my n1..but i cant carry 2 at the same time
thinking of give one to my wife, but if i give my wife she's force to apply internet access for her
line..

If you have wifi then ask her to use wifi lar~ Usually wives are fine with wifi..Especially if yours is a housewife like mine..My wife is now using the A10 with wifi only - and very happy with it

im sorry about all the stupid questions. but how do you access the adb? is it in the older threads?

Does anyone know any shop in Malaysia that can fix the broken power button? How much will it costs?

Singapore..You need to send it to them..Your phone should be under warranty still..

Do you know what's the cost and do I need to unroot it and restore the original ROM back?

My n1 for two day batteries getting worst only last for 4 to 5 hour after that dying, before this can last for whole day maybe i download apps that access internet in background.
