marcjoe: [b]HOW TO BACKUP OUR ROM

you must accept the fact that something might go wrong along the way. with that in mind i usually recommend this step immediately after rooting. if you wont flash cwm, then i will advice against rooting also.

1. Go to playstore on your phone and download "mobileuncle tools" (you must be rooted for this app to work).

2. once it is installed, download the cwm from this
LINK(link updated)

3. now put the RECOVERY.IMG file inside your memory card directly (not in a folder oooh) and open the mobileuncle tools and choose the Recovery Update option.

It would be the first one you see on the list.

4. select it and say yes to all it asks..(it wont take advantage of you, I promise).

5. It should reboot into recovery. which is a dark screen with blue text. (in the future, use the power button + volume up button to enter recovery mode)

Now lets back up your phone.

1. you will need at least 2-3GB free space to back up (depending on ur installed app) as well as at least 50% bat3. Use the volume buttons to scroll up and down and the power button/camera button to make selections.

2. once you are in recovery mode, scroll down to backup and restore and select it. next choose the backup option which is usually the first option. Sit back and relax cuz it takes a while. Once that is done, scroll down to go back and den select the reboot phone option to turn your phone back on..[/b]

AFTER BACKING UP U CAN FIND D BACKUP IN A FOLDER IN UR SDCARD CALLED ''CLOCKWORKMOD'' USING ANY FILE MANAGER THEN MAKE SURE U ZIP D FOLDER AND KEEP IT EVERYWHERE, AS FOR ME I KEPT MINE INSIDE A P.C, 4 MEMORY CARD....SO I CANT LOSE ANYTHING....

I just successfully backed up my device #stressfree following the above guideline. Thanks a million! Next in line will be to run a custom ROM. #grinning#

Should I delete the clockworkmod folder so as to free up space on my SDcard, have just abt 3.77GB left? I have already saved it on my PC.

marcjoe: Hmmm...i dropped d link and d tutorials b4 so now am updating my links...the former cmw has been causing a lot of problem for peeps so i am updating all d link again and some ppl r too lazy to go back to d previous pages...PLS WHO TELL U AM WASTING PAGES SHEY NA UR PAPA GET NAIRALAND NII?

Any PH guy in the house who can help me root and run custom ROM on my A+ or who knows somebody in PH who can help me out? Anybody out there!!
*I bought this device following reviews on NL and later joined NL after purchase so I could be getting necessary tips being an android newbie...*

marcjoe: U can read about d rom stuff on net...google is our friend

Thanks again. Do you know of any guy in PH, as good as you are, who can root mine and also run a custom ROM for me?

Don't want to risk doing it myself being an android neophyte.

marcjoe: That's a network problem u can try again today. .

HBD to u! Wish you heaven's best in life. You are right, infact it started browsing last night. I was a bit worried being an android first-timer. What's all this ROM and root stuffs? Can you put me through, pls.

Hi, pls I've been having challenges browsing on my A+ since yesterday after installing firefox for android on it. Although d phone browses via wi-fi but not on my MTN network. I tried browsing on my etisalat network, and it browses but at a very very slow speed. It took me ages to open my facebook on opera mini after which, I couldn't open any other sites.
How do I know if this is due to changes in my phone internet settings occasioned by the download or just an MTN network wahala? I had to uninstall the firefox, and yet it's still not browsing except via wi-fi.

henro111: Download Mx player or Vlc for your music, Kingsoft office for all your office documents, there are a lot of android bible apps better than go bible on java from play store, among them are And bible, You version, etc.

Thanks a bunch. Will check the music apps. I downloaded two versions of bible but didn't like them, will check the above as well.

henro111: search for "kingsoft" for your word, excel and powerpoint

Thanks!

marcjoe: Download kingsoft office or office suite 7 from playstore for that..

I'll check right away. Thanks a bunch!

chucksbadt: Enter Google playstore......everything you need is there.......if you are not satisfied download 'android blackmarket'....
.enjoy!

Thanks! I've been exploring playstore. Just downloaded adobe reader and other stuffs, still searching for apps to read and edit word,excel, powerpoint. The device rocks!!

I got a phantom A+ on Wednesday in PH for 36k. Thanks for the reviews I got on this thread. I followed your comments for days before making up my mind. I need to download apps that will enable me play music with .wma file types; read documents (excel, word, PDF, powerpoint) and possibly edit as well. Is there a GO bible for androids? Pls could any one help me with these and any other apps necessary? This is my first stint with android.
Thanks
