HTC One M7 Stock Recovery Backup

Hi Guys
Im new here so I hope I wont mess things up too bad, by posting something in the wrong place or something like that :o
I have a question about my Htc One M7 and I have been googling all day and either there is no easy solution or I am not able to find it...
So hopefully you can help me :)

My Htc One is at the moment completely stock. All I did was unlocking the bootloader as described by the htc-dev website.
I want to make a backup of my Stock Recovery, before I flash a custom one.
I tried to use this Guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2265618 to achieve that.
In step 7/8 it states ("In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot boot recovery.img (this command might not with newer hboots)") that I should be able to boot a recovery without flashing it. But it also says that it might not work with higher hboots.
It seems that it wont work with my Hboot 1.56 :(



Now my actual question: Is there any way to make a backup of the 100% Stock Recovery?
And please dont give me a link where i can download one, i would like to create a backup myself :D



If you find anything that is wrong with this post (spelling, location or somthing), please let me know.
Thank you for your help :)

Full back-up : rooted firmware + data + apps. Possible?

Hello,

I have an issue with the screen that is detaching more and more. So I plan to send it back to Sony SAV.

My phone is rooted and I really want to keep the firmware I am using right now (I do not want to move to Android 5).

I know how to copy my data, applications and so one. But I want a full backup to perform a full restore once it will be exchanged. Is there any way to do a full back-up with the firmware also?

Thanks,
Javier

Unrooting from a backup system.img

So I have a backup system.img and could root, but I'm curious if anyone using a Sprint phone has successfully restored their device using a backup system.img. I understand why and know that it should work, but I'm curious if anyone has actually tried it, successful or otherwise.

how to backup with dead touchscreen

rooted my phone few months ago, using this method.

apparently the phone is not so waterproof as advertised. just a few drops of water in the swimming pool (didn't even put it under water) and wet hands made the touchscreen unresponsive an hour after. I am going to return it to Sony as it is only 4 months old.

but I really like to backup all my stuff before I return it.
the phone works fully, even the display works, but the touchscreen doesn't respond to any swiping. is there still a way to do so? I can put the phone into recovery via ADB, but TWRP is/seems useless when touchscreen isn't working. is there another way, eg. via ADB commands or any other way, to do a full (nandroid) backup?

many thanks!

Automatically backup photos (with some privacy)

Is there a good app to automatically backup photos in a safe way?

HTC Google backup query

Not sure where to post, newbie so be gentle! :)

Hi all. I have a HTC Desire EYE (UK based) and use the automated Google upload service. The problem I have is that I want to delete certain pics from the Cloud without removing them from my device itself. I have a huge amount of memes and pics that I occasionally like to use when posting but I don't want them ALL to be kept on my cloud storage which I want for family pictures and a few select items only.

As far as I can see from reading about a zillion posts on many forums if you delete a photo or picture from the Cloud area (G+ style) it will also be removed from your phone (along with any other synced device) regardless. This is not what I want! Is there not any way to manually delete photo's from my Google account and leave them on my phone?

To clarify I also have a huge collection of memes that I really don't want clogging up my Google drive (and a few tasteless memes that I might post on certain pages but don't want kept on my Cloud storage or other places).

In an idea situation Google would upload all I have on my phone then I could manually go to my G+ account and remove certain pics I don't want there but they are NOT removed from my HTC phone. This was always the case in the past and seems a reasonable thing to do to my mind. Why is this not possible?

Thanks in advance

Missing backup option in recovery

Hi!

I installed CM 12.1 recently and found that the cyanogen recovery doesnt offer any backup option. Since I need this, I went back to my backup (CM 11).
I am a little confused about how I should proceed to use CM 12.1 AND have the backup option in recovery:
Can I just flash CWM (from the clockworkmod website) or TWRP recovery after installing CM 12.1? I read that this replaces the kernel of the i9100 aswell, will this result in any issues?
And can I flash it by using the cyanogen recovery (download the zip and install in recovery)?

And will CM 12.1 replace the recovery immediately, even if I unchecked "Update Cyanogen recovery" in the developer options? (I think I tried to install CWM before but it got replaced nevertheless...)

I hope that this question hasn't been asked already, I found so many topics which couldn't really help me...

Thank you!!

Ti Backup Bloatware Freeze List

So I'm running rooted 5.1.1 H950, and I went to town freezing everything I didn't use. I haven't broken anything, and my phone is snappier than ever (and my app drawer is less cluttered too, so that's always a plus).

Here is a list of what I have personally frozen on my Flex 2 without issue. I'm not claiming this is foolproof, so if you're uncomfortable freezing something, then just don't.

Amazon
Everything AT&T (They're not even my carrier, so it's pointless to have this garbage on there)
Browser (I use Chrome; Apps that access the browser still continue to do so seemlessly)
Calculator (Because why not have Graph89 as your calculator. The TI-89 Titanium has everything an engineer needs :P)
Caller Name ID
Device Help
Digital Life
Drive (Google Drive)
DriveMode
EasyHome
Emergency Alerts
Games
Google+ (Just because I don't ever use)
Home (Just be sure to have an alternate launcher set up before you freeze this one; I recommend Nova)
Keeper
LADDM
LG Backup
LG GNSS
LG Health
LG IMS
LG Intelligent Agent
LG Keyboard (I use Swype. Again, make sure to have an alternate keyboard installed before freezing this)
LG Keyboard Black Theme
LG MLT
LG PC Suite
LG PC Suite Service
LG Voice Command
LG VPN
LG Setup Wizard
LG Smart Cover
LGWernickeManager
LIA Informant
Lookout
Maluuba QVoice
Market Feedback Agent
Messages Backup & Sync (I only removed this because I use GV and hangouts to get my messages, if you have a standard phone setup, I'd think you should avoid)
Mobile TV
myATT
Smart Cleaning
Smart Limits
Smart Notice
(There's a lot of other "Smart" stuff in between, but I haven't messed with it yet)
Smart World
Tags
TalkBack
ThinkFree Viewer
Twitter
Uber
Visual Voicemail (Again, I probably wouldn't advise this unless you're using GV, but I don't actually know what this app does)
Voice Command
Voice Mate
Voice Mate Engine
Voice Mate Speech Pack
EVERYTHING related to Weather

Device backup not showing in restore options

Hi,

I have a very frustrating problem. I have an NVIDIA Shield tablet that has been recalled due to a battery problem. I have the replacement tablet here and when I go through trying to set it up I do not see the backup of the old tablet as an available source to restore onto the new tablet.

I have verified that Android Device Manager is enabled AND that my old tablet shows up in my Google account. I can also locate the device from my Google account.

Even with all of that working, I still do not see my old tablet listed as a source to restore onto my new tablet. (I do see several other Android devices that I own in the list.)

I have attempted clearing the cache from Google Play Services but that did not work either. I also thought that maybe I was missing an update to Google Play Services but I can't seem to find it in the store.

Would appreciate any suggestions!

TIA!

CWM backup failed on Samsung Galaxy S5 G900H

I have rooted my samsung galaxy s5 g900h version and installed CWM ( g900h-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7.tar) custom recovery on it.

When I start my phone in recovery mode I get two problems
1) It doesnt detect my external sd card (I have 2 fat32 partitions of 40GB & 20GB created from the app "Apart" available on the google playstore). {It detects internal memory as sd card}{Unfortunately TWRP or Philz(the link is not working , I tried from another link but after installing my phone freezes on the boot image) is not available for S5 G900H variant so I have to continue with CWM }

2)If i start backup it says "Error while making a backup image of /data!"
{I dont know if space is a problem , I had 2 GB of free space but I deleted some apps on my internal memory to make 4.5 GB of free space but still the problem persists} {I do get insufficient space error after rebooting if I dont delete the backup but CWM doesnt recognise my sd card also so I have to write on phone memory}
