I've just about had it with this mytouch slide. I not new to root and modding. But this is pissing me off. It started yesterday. I've got root, s=off latest radio and data2ext. Just flashed cm 7 stable(released today). I've had s=off for about a month but it only works when it wants too(I've heard its not too friendly with data2ext.)
Yesterday I had every thing the same but was running cm7 nightly #36. I let my phone dying and didn't turn it on for a few hours, when I finally did it wiped it self complete even the gapps and my account. ( blown but what ever).
So this morning I wipe everything, flash cm7 then gapps then data2ext . Enable it in terminal and restore everything through titanium pro. By then everything was good so I tried to update my busy box to 1.18 and walla I get s=off working again, I delete a few user apps and fix the gps.config file. I reboot for good measure and way to ruin all the morning work everything is wiped even texts, checked my storage and am back to 145mb of internal from 1.03gb. Checked it terminal and it says data2ext is enabled but not active.
I'm not understanding how it could be s=off and data fighting. Cuz thies hasn't happened until yesterday. And I flash EVERY nightly.
id appreciate anay help at all. Thank you in advance. Other wise I'm un rooting and starting all over. Duece duece!

Hey all, long time lurker, first time poster....unfortunately....
So after sitting on MIUI for a good while, and having a blast with it, I decided to try out some other ROMs. I was interested in seeing Cyanogen 6, and so I went about attempting to get the latest stable, non RC ROM onto my EVO. I read into it seeing that I needed to downgrade my hboot, and found the image without a problem (running the .76 right now, had the 9something one before...)
Well, I downgraded my hboot without an issue, flashed the Cyanogen, and got into a splashloop. I figured out it was becaue I hadn't wiped my cache or data before flashing the rom, so I went into the Clockwork Recovery and wiped those, flashed once more, and it booted into Cyanogen perfectly!
Well, almost. I don't have 3G now.
For some reason, I am unable to connect to 3G no matter what I try. My nandroid's broke due to the hboot downgrading, rewiping the cache/data and reflashing cyanogen did nothing, and now for some reason, when I attempt to go back to MIUI, it still will not allow me to connect to 3G. I can send and receive texts, and make and receive calls, but alas, no data connection.
Should I get a fresh RUU and stock hboot, upgrade and restart from scratch? I just want to get back to MIUI at this point with a working, data enabled phone.....
If that's the case, that I do need to start over, where can I find a new hboot for the EVO that isn't .76? I'm pretty saavy when it comes to this stuff, but for some reason right now I just can't figure it out....
HTC EVO running MIUI v0.11 stable
.76 hboot w/ Clockwork recovery
Broken nand backup
whatdo?
Thanks in advance for the help
Sorry for the double post, but I resolved my issue.
I am unsure of what exactly went wrong, but I figured it was somewhere between downgrading my hboot, and flashing the CM 6 stable ROM that my 3G data got scrambled....
So! Using ROM Manager, I made a backup of my working (non 3G) MIUI image, and flashed the Odyxed version of the RUU found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836728). After flashing in Recovery, it booted into SenseUI, and worked like a charm!
My 3G hath returned, and issues have been solved. It's nice when you're able to fix things on your own, though I couldn't have done it without the help of that handy dandy search button, and the RUU keyword
Oh, yeah, and I guess xxbabiboi228xx as well.....maybe....^_~
I've rooted my phone for the first time the other day and started venturing into the custom ROM's realm, but so far all I got were dramas and failures.
I started by downloading Cyanogen 6.1.1 and 7 RC1. I thought I'll try each to see how they perform. So I copied them to the sd-card, along with the radio update that was recommended on the Cyanogen 7 RC1 thread, and rebooted to Clockswork recovery. I wiped my data and cache and went on with the ROM installation followed by the radio update (notice that I skipped the backup stage. stupid, I know).
Upon booting, I immediately noticed that I have no signal, and a force close message that says: "the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" pops up every 2 seconds. Nothing happens when the message is dismissed, mind you, but it still comes up constantly every couple of seconds. This, along with the 'no signal' thing, rendered the phone unusable.
At this point I'm thinking that maybe my phone is just not reacting well to the non-final build of the Cyanogen 7, so I gave the stable Cyanogen 6.1.1 a go. Lo and behold, same thing happens with it also. Now panic kicks in when I realize that I have no backup, and no stock ROM to go back to.
Eventually, I downloaded the latest rooted Desire 2.2 ROM, got it into my sd-card and installed it. Thankfully, everything was working properly again. After some asking around in the Cyanogen forum, it got to my attention that the update to the radio might have caused all of this trouble, and that the installation of the stock ROM brought the previous radio version with it, which solved the problem. But when I tried to install Cyanogen again, without tinkering with the radio, same thing happened. I then tried Oxygen 2, thinking that maybe my device just doesn't like Cyanogen, but the exact same problem persisted.
Anyone have any idea what's the deal here?
Did you wipe dalvik cache after flashing the roms?

I wiped the cache partition before I flashed. It didn't say 'dalvik' specificaly, just 'cache partition'. I never wiped any type of cache *after* the flashing process.
You should wipe the dalvik cache after (or just before) flashing roms.
You can find it under the advanced menu in clockworkmod recovery.

Alright, tried wiping the Dalvik Cache after flashing, problem still persists.
You could try downloading another radio and trying it. Even if it's not the recommended one, an older radio works better for some people. There is no such thing as 'the best radio to use', since result may have large variations for different people (in different locations, using different phones and ROMs). Just browse the radios post and pick one
Btw, since the dalvik cache is stored at /data/dalvik-cache, wiping the /data partition implies deleting the dalvik cache
Well, since the radio that I have installed now works, and since it stays the same one after installing a different ROM, it seems to me that the radio is not the problem here. I really would like to stay away from tinkering with the radio stuff...
Bump.
This really bugs me that it wont work. I feel like I'm missing out on the biggest feature of having a rooted phone...
Hmm... I've found that if I force the phone into Airplane mode, the FC messages stop. Of course, I still have no signal.
So, the reason for the FC messages is due to the failure to connect to my mobile network. Now, why would I be able to connect to my network fine on the official Desire ROM, but not on any other ROM?
If all else fails you could always trying flashing the RUU for your phone then start from the beginning and root again if you've tried everything else.

Ok, I'll try that.
Just a quick question. After I run the RUU and the device is unrooted, will I be able to recover my nandroid backup fully after I re-root?
Hey all, I have only been flashing custom ROMs onto my G2 for about a month now, so this might be a dumb oversight. Ever since RC4, I have had an issue where every single time I reboot or power off the phone and power it back on, I get the HTC screen for a few seconds and then the CyanogenMod 7 splash screen with the arrow going round and round. And that's it. Even overnight. Now the ROM runs BEAUTIFULLY all the time. No GPS, Google Sych, or Battery Life Issues. Love it, so any help that would allow me to stick with this ROM would be great.
I am running CM 7.0.0
.26 Radio
the base CM7 kernel (2.6.32.28)
Overclocked to 1017Mhz
What should I do to get this issue to stop?

Have you tried a full wipe and then reflash? What rom did you come from? A few details about those things might make it easier for people to help u
dont send me pm's crying about how i hurt your feelings in a thread
I came from the stock post-ota ROM. I did a full wipe when I installed RC4, but I haven't since, just wipe data then re-flash. Should I wipe everything - data, cache, dalvik, etc and then re-flash? Of course Nandroid before...
just cache and dalvik was enough... no data wipe needed (at least.. I haven't needed that before)
But I still need to re-flash the ROM after I clear cache and Dalvik though, right?
Well, apparently, that worked out. Everything is humming along just fine. Thanks a lot for the help everyone.
I have a T-Mobile G2, rooted, running MIUI on the phone and GingerVillain on the sd card via boot manager. Everything has been running perfect, no errors or issues or anything like that with either rom except facebook wouldn't install on GV, but I wasn't worried about it because I wasn't going to be using GV as my daily driver. The most recent, and probably only change in a while was that I installed the new facebook IM app on MIUI? I also updated MIUI a few days ago, but that was long before any of this happened.
Last night my phone was working fine, drove my wife to work this morning and I was using google music and streaming was working fine, then I got home and turned on my hotspot to get on my laptop and my data isn't working. So I tried booting GV to see if it worked there and I get a message "System UIDs Inconsistent" and it basically told me I needed to wipe my phone for everything to work right? I really don't want to have to do this.
I've uninstalled the rom on my SD Card, fixed permissions, wiped dalvik, reflashed miui, just about everything I can think of.
Any other suggestions?
BTW 2G data is working. Just everything else that wont work. I see in my status bar that its uploading but not downloading -_-

Nevermind. The problem just went away. Haha no explanation. Thanks for the help though.
Probably the cleanest solution HERE
Hello,
My Droid Incredible can not connect to 3G nor can it connect to 1X. Luckily, I can still receive calls and sms. A couple of days ago, I upgraded from CM 7.0.2 or 7.0.3 to CM 7.1 RC1. A couple of hours later, I installed Synergy, wiping the cache and dalvik and data in the process. After a day of having that rom restart every 30 minutes or so, I restored the backup I had made of CM 7.1, without wiping the cache, dalvik, and data. I then noticed that I could not connect to 3G and to 1X. I thought I might just be in a dead zone, even though I have never had connectivity issues, so I didn't worry about it. Then, I noticed the same thing at my work, and anywhere I went no connectivity. I tried flashing a different kernel, Chad's incredikernel, 2.6.38.8, but that didn't work either. Any suggestions?
You need to install either liberation or the rooted leaked ota, set it up, then do *228 option 1, reboot *228 option 2. Then go back and reinstall fresh your cm7. I would fully wipe both installs, which means going to mounts and storage and wiping boot, dara, system, and cache. You have remnents of synergy on your phone. You need a real good wipe.
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm going to try that right now.
Let me know if that works. You may want to download vr superwipe.zip and keep it on your sd card to flash right before the rom, its what i use everytime. If ive helped you please hit the thanks button! Gracias
I only installed up to the root leaked ota and it works fine now. I actually think that the phone is faster with the ota than any other rom I've tried so I'm going to stay with that at least until I get home from my work.
The ota is smoking, it is what i use also.
If ive helped you, please hit the damn thanks button!
