Did anyone flash the new recovery version in rom manager?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I did. Not sure about changes in the coding but the new UI is nice.

I heard it is mainly for 2.3 ROMs and such, is that true? I'm on Magnolia which is 2.2, would I run into any issues?
weird.. i flashed the new recovery through rom manager then booted into recovery but still had 2.5 on there..
Flashed it this afternoon, using CM nightly #32. Using ROM manager to backup etc., would give me errors when it got to recovery. Some error about the sd card mounting I think. It would work fine booting to recovery, just not using ROM manager. Think the nightly update tonight might address the issue. Had to flash back to an earlier recovery to use ROM manager.
Could not install a new rom with it.

I flashed slayers test kernel with it and it seemed to work fine. Have not tried to run a back up yet.

It requires some sort of new update script, we use the donut update script so koush is pushing us towards the future with this recovery, it works with any kernel because of it being koush's update script. Some roms might work, ask your favorite developer if it is compatable

Darnit! Flashed it and now I can't install any font packs anymore. I guess it has something to do with the update script. Going back to a previous version if I can figure out how.

I can't either
Running CM 7 nightly #25. Flashed the 3.0.5 and I couldn't boot into Recovery. Just reverted to 2.5.1.2, guess we'll have to wait until something gets patched up in CM.
Worked for me. I like the look.

oh man, i can no longer access recovery. dayum...
i guess i should post some details: updated from 2.7.1.? (2 or 3, whatever) to 3.0.0.5 via free version of rom manager. just happened to have my stock rom loaded at the time.
edit: thx everyone. downloading the zip and reinstalling got me back up and running. yay! thx! i am disappoined, though, that md5 operations still take 15-20 minutes. i was hoping that would be fixed in this release.
I can't seem to find the post and/or thread for this
[Question]
How can I remove DarkTremor's Script from a rom that already has it installed into it?
I'm looking for the way to remove his script from a rom that already has his script in the rom.
I'm not saying that his script is bad or anything; I just want to test something and DT's script might conflict with it
Thanks in advance!
Well the only way really is flash a diffrent rom like sense, since it doesn't support DarkTremor or back up everything on your sd card and format it.

That's not true actually, in the past I've used sense and darktremor's script and it worked.
Thanks anyway, but I'm looking for a way to 'remove' all scripts related to his script so it doesn't conflict with another script I'm going to be using
So the ROM package has it built in? I'd just find a similar ROM (if it's based off CM or MIUI) and flash that. The only other way would be to delete all the scripts in your ROM that you find in DT's A2SD package. Though insterting it pre-flash while the ROM is being built goes about installing it a bit differently I think but hopefully you can figure out what it does and reverse it.

first off i love this foum and all of its members it has help me numerous times before. I recently rooted my phone HTC Evo 4G with stock Gingerbread. Used revolutionary got s-off, rooted m phone put a few nice apps on there also flashed a new kernel b/c it was necessary for HDMIwin to work.
But then my mp4 files on my SDcard would only play sound and no video...and my camera wouldnt display anything just a white screen
please help me xda....your my only hope
thank you

Every one of those problems points to a bad kernal. Try flashing the same kernal again, make sure you wipe only cache and dalvik before flashing.
It that doesnt work, then that means that kernal isnt compatible with your hardware/rom combo.
That's a great thing about kernels, you can flash them without destroying anything. Try a few different ones out and with each one try to demo every feature you phone has and you'll see that certain kernel-and-rom combos leave you with or without certain hardware or software capabilities. But there are enough out there where you'll find one that lets you use everything you need.

i cant even get passed the htc evo screen
Hold down power+volume down, boot into recovery, wipe davlik, wipe cache, reflash kernel

HDMIwin is for Sense 2.2 ROMs. They have yet to update it. Flashing a 2.2 kernel onto a Gingerbread ROM creates problems, such as your white screen camera.
If you want HDMIwin for Sense, then you will have to go back to a Sense 2.2 ROM. I think you can run some sort of app with the Tiamat kernel on an AOSP ROM like Cyanogenmod

I miss SENSE 3.0, but missed HDMwIn more. CM7 supports the bluetooth profile that the SIXAXIS app requires.

I made a swap partition w/ CM7 Elitemod and when I type 'free' in terminal, i get straight 0's
How do I enable swap? I wanna test it out
There are many guides out there. Im not sure what cm7 requires you todo but i know with virtuous roms you need to enable it after you vcreate the partition. This is done with a nice script that is placed in the root of your sdcard. You also need to reeneable it everytime you flash a new rom.

I've run 2 scripts now found in the G2 dev forums and they both error out when running them, problems with syntax errors
Can someone recommend one that works for them on CM7?
You don't need swap on CM7, G-Lite, Google AOSP type roms. However if you want to test it out you can find the guide at the Virtuous site. Honestly on Google AOSP it won't do much, but maybe limit how much time you have with your sd card. Also the kernel needs to support swap so that may be why some people are getting errors.
On cm7 the effects can be for the worse. Also, u need a kernel that supports it.

per your guys' advise, I am abandoning the idea of a swap partition.

Hey guys, I've been running into a ton of issues. Basically, all I want to do is get to the point where I can flash custom ROM's onto my Samsung Epic 4G. I am on Stock Froyo EC05 Rooted and have ClockWorkMod 2.5.1.0! I understand that the best way to go about things is to first update the Clockworkmod to 3.1.x.x but what is an easy way to do this from 2.5.1.0? Do I have to go through the entire root process again just to update clockwork or do I have to remove my root entirely and start from scratch? What's the best way to go about this and how do you do it?
Hope to hear what you guys think.

As for custom roms just go into development and pick on that you think you'll like read the included list and pick from that. Id suggest checking out legendary 2.2 as a starting point if you don't like the theme you can always flash one. As for a custom kernel check out the samurai kernel from earthbound. Make sure you get the TW.BML version not mtd.

Yeah, I've checked out a few Rom's and I know what I'm looking for, I just want that ClockworkMod updated. Also, for custom ROM's, is it better to have the EXT4 filesystem instead of RFS? which clockwork version will automatically covert it to EXT4?

The ROM does the conversion.... and EXT4 is for speed but RFS is more for reliablity not to say the ext4 isn't safe but its not as reliable as RFS. But it safe to use but I know very few people losing data because of undervolting but that was the only thing that caused it. However you need rfs then I can give you the zip to flash and convert it.
Sent From My Cyan Samurai
Rfs, because its still considered more stable. Ext4 still has stability issues, although considered faster.

Find cwm 5 (not the acs version) and then flash it. The you can get mtd roms like cm7.

Ok. Also, I made a complete backup with Mybackup Pro to my SD card and it works great! However, would it still restore everything If I'm on a different filesystem? I was also wonderung, since I'm on stock froyo, are you sure I can upgrade CWM 2.5.1.0 straight to 5.x.x.x? I heard there might be some issues with that.
Another thing, What ROM do you recommend to be the best. I do want certain features and was looking at the CleanGB and the Legendary ROMS. I basically want one that is fast, barely any bloatware, has the 3d app drawer, and the CRT animation. I also want it to have loopback so I could put Backtrack 5 on my phone just in case I need to use it.
Recovery is independent of the software version. I had cwm 5 on froyo before.

Legendary is faster cleangb is stock really and is on rfs..... and ur fine just flashing my upload... as for the apps don't use that for your apps bringing over apps from different roms escpecially froyo to gb is dangerous and I recomend you just download the apps again from the market. Or you can nandroid and advanced restore the data....

I did check out the thread on the newest ClockWorkMod 5 but it said that you should have 3.1.x.x, will this work with 2.5.1.0 to 5.x.x.x?
Update: I successfully flashed CWM 2.5.1.0 to 5.0.2.7! Now when I flash a new ROM, is there only one Zip file to flash or do I need to flash a ROM and a new Kernel/Modem?
Not the slightest clue but I have the 3.1 purple zip you can flash if you do need to do that.

Cwm 5 is runs on rfs ,and froyo stock is rfs system based, so u really should haven't anything to worry about. The only time u start running into big problems is when u convert to ext4 and especially mtd.

Gooch, when ur checking out about the rom, the developers will usually tell u if it is both the rom and kernel or just the rom. Just pay close attention to the updated changelogs as well.

Use cwm not acs... acs is great but we have an officialy supported cwm for a reason. I strongly recommend you use our official cwm 5.0.2.7 and not acs
