So I have my G2 rooted, what do i hae to do so i can extract apps from the markt so i can upload them here? a guide will be useful

1. Download 'Astro File Manager' from the Market.
2. Open Astro and click Menu>Tools>Application Manager/Backup and check the box of the app you would like to backup.

yea thats a good guide but there are some private apps. those apps cant save it to sd card as backup. need other file manager

how do i backup the private apps please?

you need root!

download terminal emulator free from the market
open it up
type these commands



su
cd /data/app-private
ls [will give you a list of your apps]
cp *.apk /sdcard/


your apps will then be saved to your sdcard

if you have your apps running on your sdcard you will need to replace the "
cd /data/app-private" with "cd /system/sd/app-private" without the quotes.

thanks I have root but it says
cp: not found

easiest way ive found:

root & a2sd req.

just connect your phone to your fav linux distro and mount

go to your file manager and look at your phones ext partition

there will be your apps / apps-private folders, open them and theres all of your apks

done

---
from the phone itself:
*buy* sufbs file manager, i know the guy who wrote it, really nice guy, and he really needs the cash, anyway, that'll let you access your apps-private folder and copy all of your apks out

thanks I have root but it says
cp: not found

did you type "ls" and get the list of your private apps?

yes it typed ls as well, can you link me to the best cutom rom with root enabled please?
