have u flashed EZBase 2.0 before flashing CM7?

if not.. then u should

got meh? everytime? or the first boot only?

Where did you get FC? Do you restore by TB or install fresh from Market? I did the later one. No FC yet

Now I remember, some apps randomly got FC when upgrading from froyo to gingerbread if you restore by TB. Solution is to just uninstall and reinstall.

hmm.. i never face any screen corruption. but Ramad said don have to tick update bootloaders

I'm using. CWM 2.5

1st im trying to flash EZbase 3.0 as on post#4. But get stuck for 4 hours at factoryrs.rfs.
Then try to pulling out battery put it back. Cant turn on phone. But after few hours. Manage to put into download mode.
Try to flash http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-insta...galaxy-s-i9000/ this. And stuck again at same spot.
After hours pull out battery again. Dang! cant turn on phone up until now.

any1?

Too scared to try flashing. Haha

heard that GB for our galaxy S will be out this week. serious ah?

Vis Kiez the procedure not as scary.

Those who flashed JVO over XDA gained 3 buttons combo which they previously didn't have

maybe those are the people who never use odin. 

Galaxy S II Original SME only RM2099????

saw it on garage sales there. i dont think so cheap la. 2099 sgs plus maybe la. sgs II should be around 2.6k

come come join us   

I updated from 05152011 too, but via multiple nightlies (05152011 to _full-1, then _full-6, then _full-7, then _full-9, then _full-10 and now _full-11).

Nothing lost. I did the updates this way:

1. Boot into Recovery Mode (CWM 3.x for me)
2. Nandroid backup
3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache
4. Apply Zip from SDCARD
5. Reboot

Incidentally, I just paid for ROM Manager Premium, am gonna try the so-called easy update way next time

In theory you should not lose anything. I have been doing CWM updates a few times now, nothing lost so far. However, it's always a good idea to do 3 things first before you flash via CWM - these steps don't take too much time (hardly 15 mins).

1. Titanium Backup
2. Nandroid Backup
3. Wipe Dalvik and Cache

Luckily he got no wifi

Try MyBackup app. It's able to restore settings to most, if not all apps. Such as Handcent SMS, Titanium failed to backup/restore the settings.

Another thing is, don't backup system apps cause you most likely don't need it on another ROM.

I always only restore user apps and data when moving from rom to rom. Never restore system data or system apps. So far no issues, nothing lost till date.
