Custom ROM problems

---

everytime ive installed a custom rom it breaks after i reboot the phone.

ive tried gingerburst, insertCoin, aceSmod for HTC desire and they dont work very well at all...

after i reboot the phone after restoring via titanium backup my widgets get messed up and my htc people app doesnt work properly either.

am i restoring it wrong or something with titanium backup? :S has anyone else came across this problem?

With your apps that the widgets are based on, are they saved to internal storage? Because if they're saved to sd card they will not work, they must be in internal storage to work.

Did you restore the red apps with titanium? Don't do this. It will corrupt your Rom.

i click on menu>batches>restore all apps with data then select all and restore. take it this is bad then?

^No need to restore system apps (the ones in red), because your new system apps are the ones that came with your new ROM. Restore only user apps + data.

thanks guys

Unless one is using a2sd+. Then android "thinks" they are still stored in internal memory (although they are stored in ext partition of sd card) and so the widgets still work.

just installed a custom ROM again and restored with titanium backup.

this time i only backed up the green apps/data and only restored the green apps/data as well.

still the same problem though after first reboot.

Do you run a complete wipe when you flash a new rom? I suggest to delete ALL backups made with titanium backup, run a complete new one, flash new rom with complete wipe, reboot after first boot of the new rom, and then restore apps + userdata with tb.

If this does not help, install all apps manually and only restore their data with tb.
