[Think tank] Custom Odin Backup

---

Before everyone jumps on me for posting this in the dev section, let me please say that I did ask this in Q&A and all anyone could come up with was "do a nadroid backup." So, I am purposely asking in here now.

If there is a guide somewhere that could take me through the process, please post a link. If it's simple enough, post a quick walkthrough here for me, please.

I just want to make an odin-flashable backup of my entire phone that I can flash back to when I hose things up.

Any help is appreciated.

I tried to make one actually. It seems there is a problem when you try to write back to the phone. Odin will fail part of the way through. I've been trying to look through everything and figure out exactly what the issue is but theres not much odin documentation...

Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

I just found this:

http://androidforums.com/behold-2-al...kups-odin.html

It's for the behold 2, which shouldn't really matter, but could make some difference (I think...), and is geared for making roms for distribution. What I'm after is actually a backup for personal use only.

I'm not trying to start an argument or anything but why is that arrogant? I'm trying to think of how that could be construed as arrogant. I don't think it was a comment made in excessive pride or self-importance.

Also if he hadn't said that, he would have been bombarded with "wrong forum nub", and he already explained the "right" forum was no help.

+1 sir, +1

OP try changing the title to Think Tank instead of a Question, because this is a pretty good idea and yall are rounding up info on how it can be done. that way noone will bash you...well most people lol

You already posed a question and got back a ton of responses in another thread all saying to do a nandroid backup, but then u decide u don't like the only suggestion it seems anyone else could think of, so u "purposely" decide to violate forum rules simply to satisfy ur need.. Also, bluntly stating that you know its wrong but are doing it anyway is clearly an attempt at preventing being flamed by admitting to being guilty before anyone else could accuse u.. It just doesn't deserve a pass. Anyone else would've been flamed in the first reply.

Btw I'm not mad or trying to argue either, just trying to explain my previous post.

Edit:

The right forum was help, he just didn't like the responses/suggestions. I think what another user suggested would've been ok tho, to make it a think tank, other than that it doesn't belong in DEVELOPMENT.

Now that you've explained it, I do understand why you said it and I do agree with it. I'm not excusing it or anything, but I will say that the Development forum seems to be a lot more helpful than the other Vibrant forums I've been to.

On topic, I would definitely like to see a custom ODIN backup.
