What are you uncertain about?

What are you uncertain about?

i'm using UltimateDroid 1.0.0 for Droid 1 and i have 2 nice themes for it and i want to switch between them both without having to re-flash and such.

so i have both themes on my SD card.
i used RomManager to back up un-themed UltimateDroid
then i added a theme, backed it up
restored the un-themed UltiamteDroid
added the other theme, backed it up.

now am i able to switch between both theme back-ups without wiping data/cache? cuz thats a pain in the ass lol i usually only do that when switching between 2 dif roms

Make a backup say "A". Install the first theme and make a backup say "B". Restore backup A. Install the second theme and make a backup say "C".

You can restore the backups depending on what theme you want to run. Keep in mind that any change you make to the current rom theme combo will not be included in the backups noted above.

alright thanks, thats exactly what i did. also, when should i delete system/cach? i never kno when to do that

[mwhartman]

Are you referring to a cache cleaner?

You can download one from the market and run it once a week. If you phone appears to be sluggish then more frequently.

ohh no i'm refering to ROMManager. when i flash a new rom/theme/backup it asks me if i want to wipe data/cache

[mwhartman]

You should only delete data and cache when you install a new rom. If you are going to restore the backups you made then you do not need to wipe data and cache.
