[Script] Powerful backup and restore tool

[Nealius]

This is probably a silly question, but how do I go about opening terminal to run a script? I have been using lithium for a good month or better (love it!) and could never find it. Also, is there a list of scripts that work with lith-mod? Thanks!!

Terminal is an app you can get from the market.

I believe Jrummy scripts are called allinone

once you open terminal, type SU to allow superuser powers
then allinone.
allinone is menu driven.

Currently running SS4.7. Twice I tried installing this with ROM Mgr and twice I lost root, so twice I restored a back up.

install it with out using Rom mgr?

Ya know, I thought of that just after I posted the message! D'oh! Thanks, Nealius.

Update: Nope, that didn't do it. But I still should have tried it before posting.

You should be able to have it named update.zip put it in your SD directory (not in a sub folder) reboot into recovery and choose install update.zip After install reboot and you have it. It doesn't show in apps, it just works when your using terminal emulator.

If you were using rom manager you can reboot into recovery with that, or flash the alternative recovery and then use that, simple power up while hold the 'x' key on the slide out keyboard, menus pop up. Volume the up and down directory navigation and camera button is select. Power button is a 'back' button.

I'm just going to jump into the noose here, whats the point? (im ignorant) :-(
Is this just merely another way to backup a ROM b4 flashing to a new one?

Does it only work on LithiumMod? I think chevys script like this could backup from other roms but only restore in Simply Stunning.

alternate recovery from rom manager is another way to backup and restore as well as install custom roms. it is the SP recovery ALOT of people have used for a while. Version .99.3b is what is current on rom manager.

no noose to jump in, sometimes rom manager dorks up, you can go to an older version, or alternate and then back to current. Some people get Status 7 errors when installing roms and this is the only way out- (at least for me it was)

It just freezes on the data backup never finishes never puts anything in the data folder either moto droid frg22d
