Safestrap is based on Non-Safe- (Stock Motorola System) and Safe System (Custom System)
Non Safe System:
This is your Stock Motorola System, which will be protected during an Flash on Safe System. That means your Blur Rom is save and you can always boot back into Non Safe System, in case that something went wrong during your Crackflashing - Actions!
Safe System:
This is the System where all the Fun happens. Here you can flash any Rom / Theme or Mod. Your Blur System won't get touched and you can try some crazy stuff on Safe Side of Life.
Requirement
Rooted ICS (Android 4.0.4)
!BusyBox installed!
!! Always got your FastbootFiles ready and your Battery charged till 100% to be prepared for the worst case > Brick on Non Safe System !!
Important:
Don't got any other Custom Recovery on your RazR, when you are on your way to try Safestrap!
I recommend an clean SBF Flash of your Stock ICS Rom to kick all Leftovers of CWM (Touch) out of your System!
If you are using BootMenu you can uninstall it completely from your System.
Just follow these steps:
Open BootMenu > Install / Uninstall
Start uninstall from top till bottom

First to say thank you very much!
Definitively a Newsworthy Thread!

I wonder if it always will be ~600mb memory on kexec?

HSD thanks for this thread!
Probably someone will find a way to increase the memory in the future,the memory is 600 MB because the phone is loading two kernels in once,so it has to share some memory with the first loaded kernal,this is at least my opinion.
meanwhile i have three questions:
1.Will users would be able to load other kernals in the future?
2.Kexec is integrated to cm9 only? or is it possible to run Kexec on other roms?
3.Is there any change log or some information on what Kexec integrated kernals offer?
Thanks in advance .
I assume this is the thread to talk about it.

I think so.
But for more Information we have to wait for an right, working Link to add in OP. It's hard to follow all these Links that changes daily an till now I wasn't able to access rombot again.
I use KeXec ICS the first time today and it's new for me, too. So we'll see what happens in future.
@ the moment I'm just thankful, that these Guys released it for XT910 today
Sent from my KeXec InfecteD XT910

And when kexec'll be adapted to bootmenu, Which advantages will Safestrap have over Bootmenu?
Thanks for the post!

When Whirleyes is back from vacation I'm sure he will KeXec get running on BootMenu.
Personaly I miss it, because it's a lot faster than Safestrap is.
Sent from my KeXec InfecteD XT910

Well nice work hsd again but I would I like to say saying something its currently better not to switch to kexec cause battery life is not good and animations in the rom are slow also camera is not working
It would be better to wait for the final rom and then flash it
Sent from my XT910 using xda premium

OK thanks for the answers regarding the memory but i'll just wait until kexec become bootmenu compatible

I recommend an clean SBF Flash of your Stock ICS Rom to kick all Leftovers of CWM (Touch) out of your System!

SBF flash than install safestrap.apk???don't need to root???

Of course you need Root. Flash SBF & Root it. After that install the apk and Recovery.

Finally! I've been waiting for gsm safestrap, no more softbricks! Thx a lot!

@Pilot: Are you running Infected Rom with kexec?? Is it possible to get the CDMA-CM9-Kexec to work using the GSM-Patch? Because the CDMA-CM9 has less bugs..

No, there's only the CM9 KeXec. I changed the Rom & Signatur already.
I've not tried it with the CDMA Rom. The No Deepsleep is an huge problem for me, because of the bad battery drain. I'm not sure if it's fixed on the CDMA Roms already.

I think, it's never an good idea to flash Customs, when you're not able to handle RSD. You play russian roulette with the Phone

based on latest official stock Viewpad 7 firmware Android 2.2.2​​

With installed ADW Launcher EX:
This build is for Viewsonic Viewpad 7. I’ve made this build mainly because I had one big problem with stock one – it was offering little space for my apps. I've used this opportunity to add extra features and remove some annoying ones. Here is the list of changes:
based on latest official stock Viewpad 7 firmware Android 2.2.2
added Darktremor Apps2SD 2.7.5.2 functionality (require that you have extra partition on your SD card for storing your apps; exact procedure to create one is described in installation procedure)
fully deodexed and zipalligned ROM
ROM is rooted (Superuser.apk + su)
installed BusyBox with support for init.d scripts
replaced "Welcome" boot animation with stock android 2.2 animation
installed Gingerbread keyboard
installed Morelocale2 for more languages
modified framework-res.apk and services.jar with Gingerbread look like + % battery
removed Aldiko,RSS, TouchPAL_M20
updated gapps to newest version (Gmail, GoogleQuickSearchBox, Maps, Market, VoiceSearch) & YouTube
modified host file for ad-free
Now you don’t have to worry about decreasing internal storage when you install more application. You don’t also lose access to application when you phone is connected in drive mode to computer, because application data is being hold on ext3 partition on SD card. That partition isn’t mounted when your phone is connected to computer. The things that are redirected to this partition are: /data/app, /data/app-private and /data/dalvik-cache. Firmware should also work with compatible devices such as: Cherry Mobile Superion, Commtiva Linx N700, Olivepad VT-100, Spice MI700, and Camangi FM600 but I don't have these devices, so I cannot verify. As always make a backup before installing any custom firmwares.
Requirements:
installed Clockwork Recovery Partition as described here [TOOL] Viewpad 7 Backup, Root & Recovery
Changelog:
V1.0
initial release
Installation:
Power down your device.
Power on device holding power button and both volume keys simultaneously.
Upon power up you will see the birds logo and 'enter recovery' text in the top left corner of the screen.
Use the volume keys to step through the menu, power to select and back. (there is bug in clockwork when you press volume keys it jumps 2 steps; to jump one step press and hold volume and then press power to select)
Select the "advanced->Partition SD Card" item, next select size for your Apps2SD partition (1024MB recommended), next select 0 as size of swap partition. (Remember that this will delete all data on your SD card, so make backup of SD card if you need !!!)
After the partitioning will be done select the "reboot system now" item.
Using USB cable connection or SD card reader copy CleanViewpad7_signed_v1.0.zip to root folder of SD card.
Power down your device.
Power on device holding power button and both volume keys simultaneously.
Select the "backup and restore->Backup" item to make a backup of the current firmware in case something goes wrong. The backed up ROM should be located in: /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/date&time/
Select the "wipe data/factory reset->Yes – delete all user data” to clear old stuff.
Select the "install zip from sdcard->choose zip from sdcard" item and select CleanViewpad7_signed_v1.0.zip.
After flashing will be done select the "reboot system now" item. First boot may take a few minutes.
Migrate from stock or another build:
Make backup of your phone using Titanium Backup (select all user applications).
Copy all files and folders from SD card to local folder on your computer.
Install Clockwork Recovery Partition, create partition on SD card and install ROM as described in installation guide.
Copy all files and folders from local folder on your computer back to SD card.
Restore applications using Titanium Backup and reboot your phone.

Nice work bro.although it would be better to use the latest a2sd version of darktremor(2.7.5.3)
which supports ext4 partition and data2sd feature.so instead of adding a2sd 2.7.5.2 you can provide a link to the flashable zip of the latest DT-a2sd (http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip). it works i have tested it.

yes i have it rooted. what i had to do was boot the stock rom boot.img with this rom. working great right now.
I followed the directions in the first post and then downloaded the file from post#2.
Once you have the file from post #2 on your SD card, rename it to update.zip and then boot your device into Clockwork Recovery and select the "update from zip" option. Rebooted and my device now has 167MB of available space on the internal phone storage.
Thanks guys... this is the way the device should have shipped from Viewsonic, and although it aint no Gingerbread, I'm finally happy with my Viewpad after several months if dissapointment.
One thing that I find to be very strange is that it appears that some data is saved somewhere?
Even after I performed the following:
Formatting the SD Card
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvik cache
Load the new ROM
Did not log into any kind of google account and basically skipped all the setup options.
The device still shows all the wireless hotspot data that I logged into before. Why does it have the password for my WiFi router after all those steps were performed.
If I were to sell the device to someone else, is there any way to be sure ALL data has been cleared from the device?
Cheers!
Great work, good to see another ROM for the Viewpad!!!
Will for sure try it...
A few questions:
You are using the a2sd version of darktremor(2.7.5.3), I personally use Link2SD which also moves all data, cache,... to the 2nd partition of the SD card...
It's actively developed and it's free, so check it out...
Is this ROM with the kernel from tj-style? Then we can overclock to 824Mhz and it gives a nice speed boost...
If then you do not want to use it for your ROM, you can set it to the stock speed with SetCPU...
Thanks,
Nick
Since many people are requesting for TJstyle's oc'd kernel.I modified this ROM to add the kernel and some other stuff.
Here is the download link:

[ROM] [Nandroid Port] {Update for 2.3.5/418 OTA} 2.3.6 Milestone X2 for Droid X2

This is a totally Droid-less Brand-less Stock DST Rom -"Pure Blur"! Based totally on a Milestone x2 2.3.6 "multi-carrier" nandroid backup folder.
It works for the Droid x2 & Milestone x2 of course.
Thanks to 754boy for helping to make this possible.

2.3.5/413 phone info:
The "Nandroid port" is my term for a CWR restore of a system (wiped means all-3 and leaves nothing but system) from another phone. This is not usually possible but the only thing distinguishing these two are "Star Wars" & $$!
Hell the Mx2 could even get ICS.
This is Easy as pie, just like restoring your last Back Up!
If you are on 2.3.4 you will need to update to 2.3.5/413.
If on 235/412 is ok, some minor issues and no wifi.
You need to be on 235/413. Which gives kernel... 00008.., for everything to work.
YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GET BACK TO CWR BECAUSE OF ReRecovery!!!
As long as you are aware that the wiped nandroid is bootstrap-less and flash ReRecovery before you reboot system.
I must digress here for Noobs: (BSR = CWR)
You do not have run "MOTODX2_Bootstrap_signed.apk" aka "System Recovery" in your app drawer to get to BootStrapRecovery! Once you choose recovery mode and the phone goes to CWR thereafter the phone will always go to BSR when you plug-in and power off. If this is news to you try it right now. More news: while you are in BSR unplug the charger & pull the battery, put the battery back and plug-in. CWR will boot. ReRecovery sets up the same conditions (files and stuff) that you just tested to take your phone into BSR. With ReRecovery you have no choice, power off OR a battery pull along with plugging-in Boots BSR. BUT ReRecovery is flashed from BSR so you can refresh BSR anytime! Like after a Data wipe which kills BSR OR after a ROM flash which kills BSR OR after restoring a wiped Nandroid which also kills BSR. Sorry for the long rant but that is life with a locked bootloader.

ReRecovery thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426062
This is the process condensed:
It is an "out of the box" Stock backup folder. Backup your current system before anything. Kernel upgrade path is: sbf the 234 leak > do the 235/413 OTA. Run VooDoo before and after the OTA. Restore the mx2 BU. Wipe all 3. Flash ReRecovery. Reboot. Install super user to gain root.
Zurgrush will root 2.3.5/412 but not /413 so for our port we need VooDoo.
Zurgrush requires a computer. VooDoo does not.

How to use VooDoo Root Keeper before you apply the an OTA update: ( "VooDoo" )
Run VooDoo Root Keeper and choose protect root so all the boxes BECOME checked (see note).
Note :if all the boxes are ALREADY checked you may have saved SU with an older version of VooDoo. Run VooDoo and choose delete SU BackUp (do not unroot) then uninstall VooDoo.apk then install the latest VooDoo and get all the boxes checked
How to get to 2.3.5/413 Blur (kernel 00008)
Update: use the 2.3.5/418 for a slightly advanced kernel & a radio/baseband to better match the mx2.
Nand port with 2.3.5/418 phone info:
All instructions are the same for both the above.
Stock Mx2 phone info:
If on the Leaked 234: Nandroid to your 100% stock BU then "VooDoo" and apply the OTA.
If on 235/412 (there is no direct path to 413) OR you have no 100% stock BU : SBF to 234 (leaked), Root with Pete's, "VooDoo" and apply the OTA.
After the Update run VooDoo and restore root.

Mx2 Nandroid downloads and updates are at end of post.
I use Root Explorer to Extract the MX2Nandroid236.zip. Use no spaces if you rename a Nandroid. Put it in your normal /clockworkmod/backup folder .
Restore it from cwr then wipe all 3 (data,cache & dalvik) and flashed ReRecovery.dx2.zip then "reboot system now".
If you activate or do a factory reset be sure to choose Setup first rather than Sony Home.
Tap quickly on the android to get around activation if you like. If you are in landscape mode when trying to accept the Moto user agreement you may miss the hidden check box. *228 works and Backup Assistant not there to bother you.
You will need to install Super User to gain root after the nand' restore.
Debloating this rom: (I use Super Manager to test freeze - many of clcrawl's candidates really should stay if you don't mind the performance loss- then just Uninstall em) (Thank You clcrawl)

This "nandroid Port" succeeds where an SBF of the 236 Milestone x2 to our phone results in a one way path to a near brick:

This is my fav launcher. It was hacked for qhd and the bar icons are a little out of alignment. No landscape. But uninstalls, puts folders in launch bar and is fast. The theme option it has never worked.

*******Nandroid Section********
(OK everyone 250+ downloads. Anyone want to comment? )
Latest Updates are first.
If you activate or do a factory reset be sure to choose Setup first rather than Sony Home.
Newest update:
All updates are Deodexed & based on the 1st deodexed.
With the newest beta I no longer have the semi random reboot while waking after charging.
I have less issues with the beta than the original.
This is my daily driver. It is very good.
Updated nandroid: Beta Atrix/Mx2 system apps. Moto Phone Portal and other extras in addition to all of the pervious version. This ver has SE Home only, Blur Home has been removed.
I put this as a beta BUT I have few problems with it.

With the following "2 home" nands- the older beta & Deodexed - you may have problems if you don't delete the unused home. "Moto home fix" is what you need to access the blur home btw & clear its defaults to get se home back. All the various home choosers do not work.
You want to keep one sys home always so "safe boot" works. It's like a temporary data wipe for apps only.
For system/app(Home apk's), after you are sure of the one you want to keep, just add ".bak" to the one you don't want. You may get a Forced Close but a "battery pull" reboot will fix it.
Updated nandroid: Beta Atrix/Mx2 system apps. Moto Phone Portal and other extras in addition to all of the pervious version. This ver has BOTH SE home & Blur Home.

How to merge an update with your Current "PureBlur" ROM so all your data apps remain. Power off to CWR . Backup your current to be safe. Do all the following in the same CWR session:
Choose Backup & restore .....
***CHOOSE THE LAST one>>>Advanced restore.
Select the "Update Nandroid" (.....PureBlur.sys.only...)
Select restore system.
Wipe cache & dalvik. DO NOT WIPE DATA.
Flash ReRecoveryDx2.zip. Reboot.
Reserved for future updates!
Great work! Glad to see a new ROM floating around here!

Haha lol.
Gimme you login!
How is the infamous video skipping?
It really needs a debloating! Then answer that.
OK everyone 50+ downloads. Anyone want to comment?
Skwoodwiva so is this a stock 2.3.6 nano for the dx2?
Yes fully bloated! But Pure Moto bloat not Verizon!
Will this give developers more options to build roms on this as a base? Thanks for putting this together. Would love to try but after running custom roms for so long stock is painfully for me
I am sure, if no problems are found, this would be equivalent to a real 236.
Out of curiosity what is the boot animation on a non-droid x2?

Kinda like the Atrix. But the big m just continues to morf all by itself- "brand-less".

Im pretty sure he wants a change log such as bug fixes and stuff I'm sure we all know its a MX2 stock rom
Hey I am just providing it for those that want to RESTORE IT. YOU can just restore it while on your present kernel - 234 leak (which I have not tried) you get no wifi and m aybe a lot of FCs but it should run. If on 235/412 it works well but no wifi.
EDIT
You know, I did not think I had to say THIS: Make nandriod backup of your present rom (= system & data) before you restore this Mx2 backup!

This is my daily driver. I have no issues. It boots fast. Run fast. No Droid BS: quiet boot, I did the sd flip, speedy.v7 . All good. Videos good but haven't played a lot. All wireless is GREAT.

[GUIDE] Switching Recoveries BMM/SS <--> SS/BMM

How to switch recoveries
Index
1. Benefits of BMM and SS
2. Switch from SS to BMM
2.1 Basic usage of BMM
3. Switch from BMM to SS
This little guide is a work in progress! Within the next time I will insert pictures, detailed explanations about several features, etc. For now it's only a quick switching guide for SS users or beginners.
Who wants to know everything?
Whirleyes, the creator of BMM provided a great virtual BMM on his website! It works like you had a working BMM on your computer, you can browse through the menus and get detailed explanations. A user tutorial is also available which explains everything!
Find it here: http://www.projectlense.com/BootMenuManager/Tutorial/
Any help is welcome to extend this guide. Otherwise give me some time to finish it. Thx!
1. Benefits of BMM and SS
BMM:
BMM is a full featured recovery system and is recommended for developers or advanced users. While a high featured recovery is nice for developers it can be a big disadvantage for normal users. If you don't know how to handle BMM you can brick your device very fast! But besides of that there are many benefits, such like the possibitlity to flash roms to the stock or 2nd system (webtop partition) - which aren't virtual systems. A generic partition provides better performance and it could affect the behavior of some tweaks too. For me it provided also better battery life.
The system Keeper can be used to install root to your selected system, unroot or also install BMM after flashing to the stock system - after flashing to stock system BMM will install itself autmatically! So it protects you from loosing BMM.
An additional feature is the compatibility to Safestrap! You can boot your Safestrap Slots with BMM, or restore nandroid backups from SS to one of your BMM systems. I'm not sure if this works with SS vice versa.
Based on CWM 6 Touch
Multiple Boot (Select any system on startup)
Boot modes (Kexec, 2nd-init, Insecure adb)
6 Rom Slots (2 generic, 4 virtual img-slots)
Backup (Fast, Full, Selective)
Restore (Fast, Full, Selective)
Wipe (Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache, Battery stats)
System Keeper (Backup, Install, Uninstall Root, Install BMM)
Mount (Format ANY partition, mount partitions - e.g. for use with Filemanager)
Stock System flashable
2. System uses the Webtop partition (which is unused since Moto ICS! That means there are 1,3gb of unused space! BMM uses the webtop partition for userdata. Only disadvantage is: Userdata size is limited at 1.3gb)
Virtual Slots (Create partition images with preferred sizes)
Custom Install-Binary allowed on all slots (e.g. usefull for updater-script commands using Busybox, Aroma Installer, etc)
File Manager (Aroma Filemanager, Root)
ADB
No Rom-side hardcoded slots! Roms will work on every slot!)
Firmware Flashing Section (Stock ONLY:
- Backup Kernel
- Restore Kernel
- Flash Kernel
- Flash Baseband (Radio.img, bp.img, lte.img)
- Backup CID
- Erase CID
- Restore CID
Safestrap:
The main intention of Safestrap is to be SAFE for users. The stock rom system will stay untouched so you cannot brick your device. But the use of virtual slots isn't always an advantage. Roms running on virtual slots can cause lower performance. For normal users who just want to play around or test a new rom SS is the best choice. For users who want to try their own developed stuff or just take the best out of their devices, the best choice is BMM.
Based on TWRP Touch
Fixed Dual Boot (select a slot in recovery as default boot)
Boot modes (Kexec, normal)
Backup (Full, Selective)
Restore (Full, Selective)
Wipe (Data, Cache, Davlik Cache)
Mount (mount partitions - e.g. for use with Filemanager)
5 Rom Slots (Stock + Only virtual img-slots)
Slots for Kexec Roms are hardcoded!!
Virtual Slots (Create partition images with preferred sizes)
File Manager (TWRP)
ADB (?)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2. Switch from SS to BMM
I will only describe the process for installation and the basic usage of BMM. Advanced users might know of find our how to handle additional features - otherwise you can still ask here.
If needed make a full backup of your slot and place the backup somewhere on your computer or wherever it's safe.
Boot into your stock rom
Open the Safestrap app
Hit "Uninstall recovery" and wait for the process to be finished
Open Play Store and search for "Bootmenu Manager" (Make sure it's the version 0.3.4!)
Download and install it
Open the new app and allow su rights
In the appearing menu hit "Install" and finish the process
When done, BMM is installed
2.1 Basic usage of BMM
I will describe the step by step process to install a rom.
But Whirleyes postet on his website an awesome "virtual Bootmenu" where you can brwose through the full menus! It's great, so you can get in touch with it and see how it looks like! You can find it here:
Virtual Bootmenu Website
Reboot
Wait until the BMM splash screen appears, touch the screen and select "Settings"
Now select a system you want to prepare (for rom installation)
- System 1 is your Stock System
- System 2 has limited userdata (max 1.3gb)
- System 3-6 are virtual slots, similar to Safestrap
For System 2 you will only have to prepare the Cache partition. This can be done by hitting the "ACTIVATE" button in System 1 settings
For System 3-6 you have to create the partition images - similar to Safestrap - just pick your preferred sizes.
After preparing your system, you can go back by pressing the "Back" hardbutton until you see the splashscreen again
Now enter "Recovery"
You will see several options (similar to CWM)
First you need to switch to your prepared system
Tick "Switch System" and select that system you've just prepared. You will notice that the color of the buttons has been changed (Each system has its own color!)
Now are able to flash a rom
Select "Install zip from sdcard"
If needed "change the zip location" to int/ext storage
Navigate to your rom zip, select it and confirm
Repeat the last 3 steps for Gapps or whatever you want to flash
When done, enter the "reboot options" in the main menu
You can select whether to reboot as usual, reboot directly into your preferred system, reboot into bootloader or stock recovery)
Otherwise just perform a normal reboot and select your system at the splashscreen
That's it!
3. Switch from BMM to SS
I will only explain how to uninstall BMM safely and install SS!
Boot into System 1
If needed make a full backup of your slot and place the backup somewhere on your computer or wherever it's safe.
Open the BMM app
Select "Installer"
Select "Uninstall"
When the process has finished BMM is removed
Make sure you have the Safestrapxx.apk on your sdcard
Open it and select "Install recovery"
That's it.

*Thanks Whirleyes, the creator of BMM, for the great work!
*Thanks Hashcode, the creator of SS, for his awesome work!
Great initiative!
It would be nice to add for BMM users
system 2, in order to be used, it has to be activated first:
when device boot, do not press recovery, but settings, system 2 and activate
for flashing kernels, there must be NO SPACE into the path like
firmware/kernel.EU.JB/boot.img

The system 2 thing ias already there - but for all systems.
Safestrap only has 5 slots (stock + 4 virtual) you might also want to note that safestrap kexec requires specific slots.

File manager?
All,
I have recently made the jump to BMM. I am enjoying using it once I had it figured out..kind of. I am up and running with stock/2nd slot and a third vurtual. How do you get the file manager working once in BMM? It gives an error saying aromafm is not installed? Is this an additional add on? If so how do you install it so it works in BMM? TIA

If you have an accessable recovery installed you can restore your system (resotre nandroid, flash rom, etc). But if you cannot boot into any rom you have to flash using RSD.

Ok, I"m using liquidsmooth on slot 3, but still can't restore my stock rom to stock slot. I messed it up by flashing cm10(JB) accidentally on stock slot, while I had an ICS stock rom installed on it.
What if I don't have a nandroid backup? What rom should I flash to go back to stock ICS on stock slot (XT910, Latam)?
Thanks in advance!
you should know before you flash something... Look inside the firmware super thread.

That was my intension for this...:victory:
I Hope to make RAZR hacking easier for new people
P.s. I've requested the MODERATORS to make shift this Thread to DEV section or atleast make it a Sticky Post so that people can see
Lets see :fingers-crossed:
Thanks so much
I came from using the HTC Thunderbolt that I had rooted and re-ROMed many times over. I loved not having all the VZW junk apps and a speedier processor than I thought possible. Almost immediately, I realized that I could not use the same programs and processes to make my Maxx mine.
FINALLY, After all the reading i have done over the past week trying to decide whether rooting and flashing my Razr Maxx, your videos made me actually feel comfortable to make the decision and go with BMM. I actually installed it and looked around on it as you were teaching in the video. As I learn more, I'll start trying the ROM you suggested. It's a different concept to me to have the stock system just sitting on my phone while running another ROM completely, but I think I can get used to it :good:
THANK YOU, this thread is very helpful. I agree that it making this thread a sticky for us NewBees, is a great idea!
Thank You

I did a full backup and there was a folder created in ext-sd (clockworkmod). Inside there are 3 folders, backup, blobs, firmware.
I'm ok with backup and firmware (I know what these are).
What about bolbs folder?
It contains a lot of sub-folders, named with numbers.
Thanks in advance.

its backup files...its required by Recovery to take incremental backup!
you can't delete it No, you can't. Or your back-ups will no longer work.
The blobs are most of the back-up. Storing it this way means you can make incremental back-ups rather than all of them being stand-alone. Certain back-ups will share blobs, saving you space.
It's annoying, and it would be great if you could choose the stand-alone method or the blobs-method. But you can't.
hope that helps!

Installing and using Safestrap 3.75 (2015)

Because of the Locked Bootloader, the Stock Recovery cannot be replaced.
Safestrap Hijacks the boot process allowing for a custom recovery (TWRP)
In this custom recovery, Custom Roms can be installed, along with other functions that a custom recovery allows.
17 Aug 2015: Currently the newest version is Safestrap 3.75
Cm12 requires safestrap v3.75 (or newer)
3.75 is compatible with older roms.

when you see Wipe Cache/Dalvik and Reboot options it's done.
Select Wipe Cache
Swipe to wipe
Select Back
Select Reboot
Rom should should boot within 10 mins, if it doesn't something's wrong.
Many Custom roms don't include Google Apps/GApps (playstore...)
Sometimes Dev posts a link to preferred GApps version.
For the XT910/XT912 I suggest installing a Minimal Gapps because of the smaller System size and lower memory compared to newer devices, like pa_gapps-modular-nano...
Be sure to install a GApps Version that matched Android version of Custom Rom.
See sd_shadow's Collection of GApps Links
Install Gapps zip after installing rom
using same steps (do not wipe data)

I have a small problem on my spyder, I am using SS by Mentor.37 and safe slot have problems in the system partition, it has 605MB and without having anything installed any ROM shows 0 free, I looked for the solution on the official topic of the SS and saw to fix the problem we have to format system (in safe slot) using a different file system, but it did not help. okay i restored the system with RSD and the whole process and such ... the slot safe was okay, but if you try to format the system to try another ROM he gets in trouble again! Is there any solution?
Trying to learn but stuck....
Hi, I have a Verizon RAZR XT912 at Android 4.1.2. I am new and trying to learn how to do this so forgive my ignorance. My TWRP program has no "Boot Option". The main screen has (Install, Backup, Restore, TWRP Install, Settings, Reboot, Support, About). I have done back-up and it took a few times before it seemed to go into a backup mode and it said it created a backup. I tried to install CM12 and found it in my "SDcard1" , then selected the .zip file by checking the box. Then I got the warning "are you sure you want to reboot to recovery and complete the specified actions?" I click OK but nothing ever happens. It took Kingroot several attempt to finally root the phone but RootCheck says it is rooted. I am kind of lost because the apps are not working the way I have been reading and even the program screen shots are different than what I am seeing.
Is it possible to create/edit/mod SafeStrap 3.75 (for XT910) without splashscreen during the boot (like in xt912 by mentor)?
@sd_shadow Do you see any possibility to update safestrap to use the freshly introduced TWRP 3.0 sources?

Hi,
The image files from the safestrap rom slot folders ... viz ... cache, system and userdata .img files are as good as the twrp rom backup files ?
further merely replacing this old userdata.img into a freshly setup rom slot will work just as good ?
I have backed up my kitkat virtual ROM slot folder, and i am setting up a lollipop ROM anew, would be great if i could just replace the new userdata.img with the one i have saved from my previous kitkat ROM.
thanks,
