Guest bhf Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) Running stock CM7 7.0.2 What the best one to go up to and how do i do it? (Noob guide please) N102. Back up all your data and settings. Do a full wipe. Install the ROM. Restore data. Edited June 19, 2011 by bhf
Guest Metroid_Maniac Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) I use the absolute latest (as of today) which is 105. To update to it, all you have to do is download it and use ROM manager to install it. Make a backup before installing, and don't wipe data or cache - unless you want to get rid of all your apps. A dialogue will appear in ROM manager before it installs the ROM asking you if you want to backup. Edited June 19, 2011 by Metroid_Maniac
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 So the latest one is stable? No (or little) glitches etc?
Guest Metroid_Maniac Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Meh, once or twice it rebooted when I told it to do everything at once 5 seconds after rebooting. Just give it a minute once it's turned on. Aside from that it's fine.
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Ok just about to do it. Do i do a full wipe (ive backed up my existing ROM and apps using titanium backup) Or do i just wipe the Dalvik Cache?
Guest Metroid_Maniac Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) Don't bother; with Cyanognen updates (at least minor ones) you don't need to wipe. Everything else you do though. I updated from .0.3 to nightly 105 directly without trouble. Edited June 19, 2011 by Metroid_Maniac

Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 i wiped everything. :) makes sense to do it as im starting from the stock CM7 ROM.
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Stuck on the little green android at the min :/ Getting a bit worried, it better do somehting soon.
Guest Metroid_Maniac Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 It'll do that for a while. If it doesn't work, just restore that backup you made. you DID make a backup, right?
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 I did yes. How do i do that. Start it up by pressing the power and volume up button?
Guest Metroid_Maniac Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Nope. Power and volume DOWN. Close enough though.
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Oh :) thanks. Still on it. ill leave it for another 10 mins then will put the back up on and try again.
Guest rockstarszzzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Ok just about to do it. Do i do a full wipe (ive backed up my existing ROM and apps using titanium backup) Or do i just wipe the Dalvik Cache? wipe everything - and put 106 - it worked a charm. Battery seems quite good, about continous 3 hours of racing game and I've just lost 12% battery! (ps: full brightness was on too!)
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Whoop. Ok i took the battery out. Powered up in recovery mod. Selected install zip. from SD. Installed it rebooted and its working :) Thanks guys.
Guest Metroid_Maniac Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 DOn't forget to update your "Devices" section.
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 DOn't forget to update your "Devices" section. On the forum? will do :)
Guest Gunnerzz Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 DOn't forget to update your "Devices" section. One problem. There is no option to sync google accounts any more? All my contacts and calender stuff are backed up on google but i cant sync them :/
Guest Metroid_Maniac Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Hm? All my stuff was synced back.
