hi, which setting under batch should i choose for titanium backup?

1. Backup all user apps
2. Backup all system data
3. Backup all user apps + system data

i got few games with data downloaded 1gb+ especially from gameloft, do  TB save it as well or i need to download it again later?
*
Select backup all user apps, system apps are apps like phone.apk, calendar.apk, only back system apps if u need them for something, if not just backup user apps enuf

Yeah, just coz I use Android doesn't mean I swear by it.

I still recommend iPhone to my friends who are less tech savvy and want something that works and has loads entertainment value etc. WP looks interesting as well, now if only I could afford 2 data plans laugh.gif

Same, i feel ios is most user friendly among all OSes. Maybe u can buy a 2nd hand htc mozart to try out wp7, i think can get it really cheap nowadays.

Yeah, tiles concept especially is what I really like. That's what I like widgets for,see basic stuff, say weather, and my to do list, right there, instead of having to open an app like the darn iOS.

Think tiles bring this to a different level though. Really interested by the concept of glance and go

Only after switching to android then i ever realize how easy it is to see stuff on android, on iOS need to click the individual app and see, android can just see at a glance. I think mainly cuz iOS target at average users, so they wanna make it as simple as possible.Tile UI is really unique, the best UI in my opinion.WP7 has the potential to beat iOS

been doing a lot of reading in rooting and such, and i feel its all really overwhelming. i cant seem to understand it.

im now on 2.3.6 dzkl3. i read the 1st post on about rooting for G model, and i also did some reading on custom rom like superatmos 2.1.

i was going to do the superatmos 2.1, so i downloaded the file, and the odin, and the stock dzkl3.

when attempting to root my phone, it ask to input the .tar file, the file i got was Zimage.i try googling the way to get the .tar file, and the instructions and methods was just too much for me to absorb. im beginning to really regret getting the S2. the phone is awful in this stock mode, the battery is just bad, crashing, hangs, camera issues.

is there any good simple guide for noobs like me?
*
No pirated apps right? After factory reset still same issues? My S2 never have this issue, most of us here dont have these issues also. Yours seems like a isolated case.

no pirtaed apps. just angry birds, and some other games. and thats it. isolated case? relly? i read online seems like so many ppl have battery issues, crashes and also camera bug issue.

so i thought to get my phone rooted with custom rom and this too seems so tedious.
*
Camera issue is well known in g version, but crash and hang, not so common. The download link for 2.1 is in .tar format, dont extract the zimage out of the tar file, just leave it as .tar

Usb jig is for removing counter and yellow triangle. Speedmod kernel is good too, but android logger is disabled, so password protect apps wont work on speedmod
