Rom Dump Questions
Ok, this could probably go in general questions, but since I'm asking on a TP, figured I'd put it here. I've been digging around a bit on this but haven't been able to determine.
Basically, do rom dump utilities dump the entire sys as-is, or only the core, or somewhere in between? I'm trying to figure out if a rom dump could be used as a system backup. Every once in a while, work requires some short notice travel, and I'm trying to make sure I don't get caught in the middle of a rom flash without all my stuff re-loaded and tweaked and all that jazz (sometimes need to tether while on the road among other things). So I was thinking if it was possible to take a "snapshot" of the phone as is, all settings apps, everything, then if I needed to head out on short notice I could just flash to my "backup" rom.
There don't seem to be much in the way of dump tutorials floating around (or if there are I'm using the wrong search strings). I suppose my other option would be a combination of a rom and backup utility, but I'm trying to take it to a flash and done approach.
