Rooted Froyo to rooted GB, has anyone tried this method?

[LastBucsfan]

I just shut off my 3G data and one by one its saying the downloads were unsuccessful. Will that keep them from starting automatically again?

It was too bogged down to even cancel them one at a time. It would just freeze on the cancel screen, so I had to do a battery pull. Titanium Backup Pro shows in my app list, but its not in the app drawer now. The downloads are starting right back up and wont allow me to cancel them. =(

Make sure you install the free version, then it will show.

Good point, as the Pro version is just licensing and you still use the actual free app.

Go to settings>Privacy>and uncheck autoatic restore to prevent the automatic download. Then download TB and restore.

I disabled the automatic restore and they're still trying to download.

It said 45 in the notification bar which sounds about right. lol

I went to manage apps > force stop market > clear data

It seems to have stopped the downloading, but won't let me download anything I want now, lol.

 

[LastBucsfan]

Ok so now the Market doesn't download anything. It just says 'starting download' when I try to put Titanium Backup back on. Any ideas?

If I hard reset will I still be on rooted 2.3?

I've never used titanium Back up! I still use astro. Some things that I'm used to using are to let go of. And honestly I never heard the term hard reset I'm gonna assume that's a the battery pull? Lol

I believe hard reset is a factory reset and a soft reset is a reboot

I just did the factory reset under the Privacy menu. Its still on 2.3, hopefully its still rooted. Most of all, hopefully the market doesn't go crazy again.

Ok I'm still rooted. Restoring apps with Titanium now. dancedroid

Everything working good now? I guess since you didn't report any other issues you got everything going...

At first all my apps were force closing, but after a hard reset I figured out that I was restoring some system settings with Titanium Backup that were screwing up all the apps. I figured out that if I just restored the apps themselves and no settings it worked fine. The only thing not working as of now is a newfeed widget I had, but no big deal I can just find another one if I can't get it working.

Loving GB so far. dancedroid
