[BUILD] [GingerBread] CM7 from Neopeek!! **Dev Preview** ClockworkMod!

Hey all,
Wanted to post CM7 here for everyone to enjoy.
Neopeek has been working hard to get this build up and running, he's been doing great work!
Neopeek's Original Post - if you wish to see Neopeek's original post about the CM7 topic.
Also, since now I am using his new ClockWordMod method - CWM Recovery thread
As is stated in the title, this is mainly for devs/testers. Lots of things are broken, and there will be frequent updates.
There are two methods to using this build:
1) ClockWorkMod (requires 3 separate ext2 partitions)
2) Loop'd system.ext2 image (like XDAndroid) [In progress]
The benefit of #1 is a dedicated system/data partition, and *partial* USB mass storage support.
The benefit of #2 is, it's easier .
I still have to work to get #2 up, but I wanted to post #1 ASAP. Lots of work to flesh out the post to, be patient!
I've been holding off on releasing this CWM version of CM7, because I'm still having a lot of bugs with it. Still needs quite a bit of work, but it's getting late for me tonight - I am going to release it, let me know if you guys make improvements, I'd love to incorporate them!
Main issues seem to be related to my durn CDMA device. Need to break into some logs to see what's goin on, it may be a little while! I think GSM folk will be fine. Let me know!

How-to
Method #1 (ClockWorkMod)
****WARNING****
If you setup dedicated partitions using this method, normal XDAndroid builds will think that you want to use dedicated partitions. I had to modify the init to get it to work correctly (I basically broke the partition detection in the init). It's not pretty, but I don't know of a better way to resolve that issue - let me know what ideas you guys have!
Setup:
You will need to create three (3) ext2 partitions on your SD card. This is not extremely simple, but by no means impossible .
If you're using Windows, I like the Mini Partition Tool. If you're in Linux, I usually use gparted.
This takes a little bit of planning - but in total, I would say you need a minimum of 450mb of space for all three ext2 partitions. So work out how much free space is left (if you want a bigger data partiton, or system partition account for it!) and make that the first partition - FAT32. Make sure all the partitions are "primary", not "logical"! See the partition layout below:
1 - FAT32 Primary (remainder of card)
2 - ext2 Primary (at least 150mb, system partition)
3 - ext2 Primary (at least 250mb, data partition - I wouldn't go over 1gb here)
4 - ext2 Primary (at least 50mb, cache partition)
Don't worry about putting anything in these ext2 partitions, everything is populated by Android and CWM. The FAT32 partition is used to kick off Android, while system, data and cache are all ext2 partitions. Reason for this is, hopefully if things go haywire we can blast out cache, not data . Also, it should be easier to update using this method than previously.
Extract the file. Look at the folder it created (npkboot). Copy the entire npkboot folder to the root of your SD (for now this is required - the init assumes there's a /sdcard/npkboot/tmp folder). There will also be an update.zip, in this case update-cm-7.0.0-neopeek.zip. Put this at the root of your SD card (this makes finding it in the menu much easier!)
Copy the appropriate startup.txt from the STARTUPS folder.
Find haret.exe in th npkboot folder. Run it, and watch the boot process carefully! It will ask you to hold the vol down button to enter recovery, and you have 10 seconds to do so.
Assuming you manage to do this correctly (I had some trouble at first ) you should see an icon like a hat. Wait for the menu.
Buttons:
End key - back (back button seems to do this as well...)
Send key - enter
Vol up - up
Vol down - down (menu button seems to do this as well...)
If this is the first install, go to "install zip from sdcard". Then "choose zip from sdcard" This will install the system image to the system partition from the update.zip.
If you need to wipe the data partition, you can do that under "mounts and storage". You shouldn't need to do this unless you're going from gb -> froyo or visa-versa. Froyo -> froyo should 'just work', as always YMMV.
There are A LOT of options in replimenu. The only ones I have used are install, format /data, /system or /cache and Reboot. According to Neopeek, there are several things that should not be used:
Neopeek said:
* Don't use "factory wipe" in CWM (you have been warned )
* Don't use "format sdcard" unless you know what you do (you have been warned )
* Don't use "partition sdcard" unless you know what you do (you have been warned )

Once you've installed Android, go back to the main menu and "reboot system now" There are some bugs, for example "reboot recovery" and "power off" all just reboot the phone to WinMo.
Boot haret again, but this time don't hold the vol down to enter recovery - boot as normal!
#2: Much simpler method, similar to XDAndroid builds.
Extract the file to your desktop. Go into the CM7 folder, look for the STARTUPS folder - grab the appropriate startup.txt, move it to where haret.exe is.
Copy everything in the CM7 folder to the root of your SD card - if you want to run it from a folder, create a rel_path=CM7 statement in your startup.txt after the set cmdline (if you want a different folder, change the CM7.)
Grab the ts-calibration file attached to this post (for RHOD), or go to this post for a list of ts-calib's. You can also create your own on boot, but may have to revert to an older kernel to do so.
Run haret.exe!

****Not Working****​
CDMA seems broken - still! I did some testing with hyc's RIL and it's still busted, so there's something in the system image messing with it - Airplane mode was checked, and I could not uncheck it.
In addition, phone.apk seems like a forceclosefest. Neopeek did point this out in his original thread...
Mobile data - broken (Fixed soon)
Wifi - broken (Fixed soon)
System needs optimization for RHOD - was originally build with DIAM in mind - so it's a little slow.
Failed wakes seem pretty bad - sometimes it is quite difficult to wake the phone.
Boot animation seems to be not present - I'm looking into fixing it, probably graphics libs if anything that's broke it.

Dev Content​
This new method should be great for anyone who wants to make their own updates - you can easily peek into the system image and make changes at will, then just install the new system image! You can even rolll updates instead of an entire system image if you wish.
The script language in ClockWorkMod is called "Edify", see this thread to learn about the syntax. This is related to the META-INF folder you see in the update zip.
There's a few differences in the rootfs', the main being the init. There's also some additional files it looks like neopeek added for Recovery specifically.

This is amazing work. Props to all involved.

Does anyone have any feedback on this build?

Long story short, you need a ext2 partition and a fat32 partition - ext2 needs to be between 400-600mb, fat32 can just take the remainder of the card's space.

Is there a reason for the 600mb upper limit? If I use 1 gb, will it cause problems or will it not use it and just waste card space?

Arrrgh,
Disregard the PM I sent you.
I read the instruction and like you said, its not simple. So I will wait until you upload the easy to run load.

You can make it as big as you want I guess... I'm not sure how neopeek sets up the data partition to be honest, I'd have to ask him.
Edit - in lieu of the post below, I adjusted the first post to say it needs to be at least 400mb .

Is easy just use mini tool partition wizard,delete the main partition on the sd-card
and do two,one fat32 primary and one ext2 primary,then extract the archive and put the proper startups in npkinstall and in root
from the phone run install.exe
and after the reboot use haret.exe

I wonder if CDMA data is working with this...that is my biggest issue with GB right now...

yeah easy for you to say, that sounds complicated.
I will wait for the other one.
Do you know the ETA?

i have
- downloaded the file cm7new.tar.gz
- made primary fat32 and ext2 partitions
- extracted the file cm7new.tar.gz to the root of the fat32 partition
- got a lot of linux folders
but i am missing
- npkinstall folder
- startup.txt
- install.exe
- haret.exe

I was looking at that too when extracted the files and didn't see what you are also missing.

Sorry about the confusion guys, I probably shouldn't have put the download link up before I was done .
I just fixed it, so #1 is good to go! I'll get #2 up later, thanks.

Another noob question, but the rootfs, kernels, oc, etc from the xdandroid builds will work the same on these?

(...solved...)

it's necessary create a swap partition?
What works in this build?

The rootfs is more or less collapsed in these.
Kernels are straight from XDAndroid repo.
OC is the same, startup.txt is fairly similar .

Swap is not necessary.
Most things that work in XDAndroid work in here. Lots of other things are broken here tho .

Okay, downloaded and installed without problems.
First impressions:
Absolutely great build in terms of response!
No delays in menus, etc.
Also, this looks like the first build that may have little or no clock delay, so no need for clocksync !!! (to be confirmed since I did not use it very long, die to issues below)
However...
1) No WIFI
2) No Mobile data (2G/3G)
3) camera not working (could be just blackstone)
- maybe other issues, decided to wait for more feedback before continuing, without market access there's little point...
Device: Blackstone
Kernel: extensive testing with provided one (1276), later switched to 1277, to fix audiostuttering, no wifi or mobile data in either...
As a reference, used many NeoPeek / XDAndroid builds, generally got WIFI/Mobile data working until now...
Love to hear if someone else (blackstone?) got WIFI/2G/3G working...
Oh, well, as I understood, this was an early "developer" release, still plenty of room for improvements!
Cheers,
Robbert

The four partitions are laid out..
"1st partition: FAT32 (sdcard / Rest)
2nd partition: EXT2 (system / 300MB )
3rd partition: EXT2 (data / 300MB)
4th partition: EXT2 (cache / 300MB)"
However, cache is not necessary - especially not 300mb. I think neopeek recommended 50mb, but I don't think it's necessary at all.
Other builds in this section of the forum require only one FAT32 partition. This is because the data & system are just loop mounted.

For creating partitions I recommend this:
MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition
http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html
it's free and very useful

EASEUS Partition Master Home Edition for Windows is the fastest tool I've used. Haven't had any problems.
You need the partitions on your SD card because this ROM is in CWM format and will install to those EXT2 partitions (/system, /data, /cache). The order must be:
1. FAT32 (FAT32)
2. /system (EXT2)
3. /data (EXT2)
4. /cache (EXT2)
BE SURE TO REMOVE THE "/" WHEN NAMING THE PARTITIONS!! (I.E. "system", not "/system")

EASEUS is fantastic, I forgot it did ext2 as well. I use it to resize NTFS partitions all the time!

Can anyone confirm it working on Sprint TP2? and what does and does not work?
Thanks guys!

I installed on a Sprint TP2 last night but haven't really had a chance to drive it full throttle. Did try turning on BT unsucessfully. Getting longer life than FRX06 so far. Usually I have to charge before my 8 hour shift is done. Today I was able to go 11 hours with moderate use and still had 68% showing on the meter when I had a reboot to windows while trying to update an app. We'll see how it goes the next few days now that all of my apps are installed thanks to TB.

i keep on getting an issue with no signal. I did all the steps successfully but when it loads i get no signal. and then on reboot i get signal. I rebooted once again and now i have no signal what so ever. am i missing a step?

been using this for a couple of days...
device: at&t tilt 2
kernel: wistilt2
testing period: 3 days
battery: one full day... charge all night
signal... weak at times
system speed: awefully slow... worse then looped
3d: not terrible not great.. to be expected
conclusion: not for me.. too slow.. spotty signal... not the best battery life.. have seen better...

ok, now i know.
but i want to fix android to my lil´brothers TP2, and wondering what ROM i should use? which one is the most stable, and complete - and closest to stock? any good HTC sense roms?

Closest to stock and Sense do not go together. Sense is an abomination, horrid UI for Android. I don't get why it made WinMo so great but Android so horrid.
I recommend FRX06 myself, 07 is going to be out soon (promise!)

Actually I'm having one small problem... the android marketplace is only displaying like a few hundred apps...
I need to do some more research to find out why... so if you want me to fix it first or there are quite a few alternative marketplaces u can install... one I use on it right now is called--- 1 mobile market...
If you don't care I will send u the zip to try... it has gapps...
Just pm your email address

sooo, been testing this for a few days on my Rhod100... and have to say it pretty much sucks...
signal drops to 0 quite often, i get random reboots when trying to call someone / in call / when hanging up, apps that use the inet connection force close when i lose data connectivity (meebo, xda, gmail), the font is _horrible_ (yes i know, fontchanger is included, but it doesnt work the way one would expect it to)
to sum it up, it's like a F1 car without a steering wheel.. fast, fun for the first minute, but completely useless
going back to FRX06 looped and finally deleting NP from my favs
edit : forgot to mention the new audio code isnt integrated, so you cant use the new .39 kernel, but thats just the icing on the ****cake

[BUILD] XDAndroid Froyo 2.2.2 FRX06 for CWM Recovery 1.8 (ClockWorkMod)

THIS BUILD IS OUTDATED, CHECK:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1177721
I'd like to "present" my recompilation of XDAndroid FRX06 to work with Neopeek's CWM 1.8
No credit for me, but for all XDAndroid devs and Neopeek &co for this.
It doesn't have any other modifications apart from making it available to install from CWM, so everything that applies to FRX06 is useful here. You're the one to decide if you prefer looped or partitioned installs.
Don't try this if you don't know what you're doing. It's only tested by me, so what I'm looking for are TESTERS. PLEASE READ EVERYTHING CAREFULLY BEFORE DOING ANYTHING.
Normally it would be easy to return to previous state by repartitioning/formatting SD, but who knows. I take no responsability for any damage to your device.
The instructions for installing CWM are in Neopeek's forum. Only points:
1.- My partition schema, for 8Gb SDCard, is:
1st partition: FAT32 (sdcard / Rest)
2nd partition: EXT2 (system / 150MB) Contains /system - the base ROM
3rd partition: EXT2 (data / about 400 MB) Used as device's internal memory. You can use more if you install a lot of non-movable apps, but between 4 and 500 should do.
4th partition: EXT2 (cache / about 100MB) Dalvik's cache. 100 should be enough
I used Minitool Partition Wizard for the partitioning.
2.- Startup.txt, ts-calibration, kernel and modules must be in the same dir as haret.exe, in this case inside "npkboot" dir.
3.-To move in the CWM menu with our Blackys:
Peteflyman said:
I just toggle between "Reboot system now", push "Vol Up" to get directly to "Power off", and then toggle "Vol Down" to get back to "Reboot system now". I just do that a couple of times then "Back menu button enabled" usually shows up. That's it. Hope it works for you guys as well!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After the "back menu button enabled" you can use power off button to confirm menu selection. Just select "install zip from sdcard", "choose zip from sdcard" and choose my zip (ofc, don't uncompress it).
4.- You don't need to install Gapps, they're included in the build.
5.- After installed, "reboot system now" and start haret again. Let it work for a while without touching anything until you see PIN or unlock screen to begin using Android.
6.- I'd recommend rebooting a second time before starting to configure everything...
It should work in any device where CWM and XDAndroid work, but the configurations I attach here are for TOUCH HD (Blackstone). If you want to try with other devices, be careful to use the appropiate config files (they shouldn't be difficult to find in your device's forum).
I'm using 1337 kernel & modules from Glemsom's autobuild and it works perfectly with my device, feel free to use the one that suits you better.
Download link:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SUBUG5I8
If you have any problem, I'll try to help, but for CWM problems please ask in their forum as you'll find better assistance.

Huh. I guess I'll give it a shot - I cooked a build with CWM & FRX06, was force close city. Tried to fix it, but not hard... Just chalked it up to CWM being crappy since I was able to run FRX06 on dedicated partitions no problem .

if you want to install any other build,or reinstall frx06,go to recovery,choose mounts and storage,then format data,format cache,format system (don't format sdcard for obvious reasons) and then mount data,cache,system,go back and install zip from sd card,choose your zip.
also if you find a build without gapps,go to cyanogenmod.com and grab it there,you should pich gapps for cyanogenmod 6 because that's the froyo build....MDPI or HDPI doesn't matter in our case
many problems are result of gapps missing (some builds come without them,this one doesn't) such as call rejecting or showing black screen instead of lockscreen when you wake the device,so be sure to install them

Then the only difference you'll notice is that you have CWM recovery Anyway, it works pretty well for me, and since I can now write updater-scripts I'll be able to change things very easily
Edit: Now I only have to learn to compare directories to be able to give incremental updates when FRX07 and so on come out!

just be sure to use a froyo build for your froyo build

you can at least start with
/system
/app (add or remove apps)
/fonts (obvious)
/framework (the "look" of the build is defined here,so if you want your froyo to look like ginger,take some of the ginger files and swap with those in this one)
/media (it'll tell you what to do by itself)
other folders are build regarded and some playing and asking pros is advised here

any screenshots ?

It's a vanilla Froyo, identical to FRX06, so I didn't think they were needed. Just look at any basic original Froyo install.

4th partition: EXT2 (cache / about 100MB) Dalvik's cache. 100 should be enough
I used Minitool Partition Wizard for the partitioning.

Didn't change the sd that came with the device if that's what you mean. It's a Sandisk, can't tell the class

If it has no C2, C4 etc then it's a "classless" card. I have several, seems any card below 2gig that was sold before a certain time are classless.

Well, I can't tell because I'm in android now and can't extract it XD Never had the curiosity to check.
Let me see... Yeah, it has a "2" inside sort of a "C", so it must be a C2 8Gb SanDisk MicroSDHC lol

Working on FRX07 update.zip to test if it works with CWM

Hi Eodun,
Looking forward to the FRX07 CWM!
Do you think that it is required that Neopeak updates the roofts to the latests version?
regarding your FRX06 CWM, I have a quick question. It is possible to use my old data.img from the normal FRX06?
I guess that it may be possible to copy it on the data EXT2 partition but I can't access via windows XP.
Also tried restoring using CWM (I did a backup and replaced the data.img), but I get a checksum error. Any way to change the checksum to be able to do it?
Thanks in advance

I don't think so. But if you backup everything with titanium backup and then restore apps, appdata and system settings (only those that appear in green) you'll have everything as before.

Dude, you don't need to work on anything.
Just grab the FRX07 update.zip from XDAndroid and you're golden... stine makes updates for recovery, which should work fine for CWM.

Confirm it updates correctly, but there are some problems with the old Kernel/rootfs.
I can't get wifi to work and I can't turn the device off.
The 20110716 Kernel is not working for Blackstone Topaz.
We need to wait...

@arrrghhh: Yeah, I know the update is available, but ypsmav noticed the problem: I need the new rootfs for CWM, and I'm not able to adapt it. As I said, work is being done for that.
Thanks for your replies
Ps It will be a big problem if latest kernel doesn't boot. I haven't been able to boot with it. Edit: But still have to check if it boots with a clean data.

CWM NEOFroyo v0.1 fastest build yet (updated8/21/11))

This is a complete package just unzip folder on sd card.
Here is original thread by neopeek
people having wifi problems check the original thread they have a fix
This is the CWM 1.9 thread wich is included in folder already
Using starfox test kernel from XDA (Rhodium only)
EDIT: per starfox dont use test kernels use his new vanilla stable kernel
GAPPS already included.
Im not a dev, just put stuff together credit goes to all authors just posting here to spread the word
DOWNLOAD

Sure, I'll bite. I've got an extra micro-sd card here. What's the worst that could happen?

It's a pretty fast build, I tried it on Neopeeks site.
It is MDPI, so the look of it isn't quite as crisp... (you can see what I mean by the notification bar 3g, etc...lower resolution basically) but I was impressed by the speed. All the animations, etc are disabled by default and I believe that's Zeam that is the default launcher... it is quite snappy out of the box.

what tweaks you did?

no tweaks just put it together

This version is the fastest thing I've tried (probably due to mdpi-gapps), but I have two major issues.
1) Wifi will sometimes refuse to turn on, saying wifi error on the check box. It must be related to tethering and hotspot settings, because after I mess with these I get an instant reboot.
2) Camera is tremendously unstable. Most of the times it crashes bringing down the entire OS or if I am lucky it will crash the camera app and refuse to start again until a reboot.
Of course there are random hiccups here and there (like most builds), but it is quite close replacing WM for every day usage.

This is actually not that unusual... I would get this on my epic4g... which is an android phone .

If you don't mind, please use the vanilla kernel that I posted instead of the testing kernel. While I don't mind that it is being bundled, the [Test] kernel was never meant to be used for long term, and is liable to include stuff that is unstable and/or changed on my whim. The vanilla kernel contains some of the tweaks that I consider to be stable and is based on known autobuild releases+supports all devices. Thanks.

you think you can make a build with the latest rootfs, starfox's latest kernel, the led patches too?

There's nothing stopping you from doing that.
Including testing stuff into a public build is never a good idea. I wouldn't appreciate anything I distribute for testing to be put into a build. It's meant for testing, so anyone that installs/uses it should know full well what they're getting into. Placing it into a build circumvents that, and everyone ends up using it unknowingly.

Can't get CWM working
Hey guys,
I must be doing something wrong, but don't know what.
I just can't get CWM running on my TP2. I followed all the instructions precisely, got into CWM once, even flashed the ROM from SD card, but can't do it again.
I even reflashed my device, Re did the entire SD card but just can't get in to CWM.
Upon booting Haret, I press volume down, but the screen just gets stuck there and doesn't move forward. Please help, I'm trying to flash NeoFroyo 0.1

Did you set all your partitions as primary?

Yes I did that too....
SD Card (All Partitions Primary)
Partition 1: 6.4 GB - FAT32
Partition 2: System - 300 MB - EXT2
Partition 1: Data - 300 MB - EXT2
Partition 1: Cache - 300 MB - EXT2
I put the npkboot folder with startup for RHOD100 on the SD Card (Root) and the NeoFroyo Zip also on the root.
Plus, I also put the contents of the npkboot folder on root of the phone. (Not the folder npkboot)
Run Haret from SD Card through File Explorer & press Volume Down - Result: Frozen Screen!!!
Does not enter into CWM recovery...
Are all the steps above right.

I'm a little confused with what you did.
Basically just unzip his folder you downloaded and then move the Entire npkboot folder to the root of ur sd card.
So there will be nothing on your sd card except the folder. Inside that folder will be everything just as you unzipped it. So for example haret would be at "Sdcard/npkboot/haret.exe". Then just switch/edit the startup.txt in the npkboot folder for your phone and boot into CWM.
You don't need to move anything outside of his npkboot folder that you unzipped.

[TUTORIAL][Marvel/MarvelC] INT2EXT(+) (Stock + Custom ROM supported)

Hi everyone. This is my first (compilation) tutorial that I decided to make after reading a lot of tuts and not having them work for me until last night. Just to clarify, I'm running a MarvelC Wildfire S on a Sense-based ROM. Here are the steps to prep your phone for INT2EXT based off of multiple tutorials. Also, if you're on a stock/stock-based ROM, I recommend doing a factory reset of your phone before following these steps just to keep things clean.
In order to use INT2EXT, your phone must have:
1. d.init support
2. ext2/3/4 support
It must also be permanently rooted.
Credits: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1432459
Step 1: Preparing your SD card
Important Notes:
N1. If you are running a stock or stock-based ROM (i.e. using a stock kernel), your ROM only supports FAT32 and Ext2 for the second partition. DO NOT FORMAT YOUR SECOND PARTITION TO EXT4.
N2. You must be rooted (tutorial not included - plenty of working tutorials in this section).
N3. Do not mount your phone to follow these steps; use a microSD card reader.
Tools:
- Computer
- MicroSD adapter/reader
- Minitool Partition Pro Home Edition (http://www.partitionwizard.com/download.html)
Make sure you read the important notes above before proceeding. If you have, proceed:
1. Boot up Windows.
2. Insert your MicroSD card into the adapter and attach the adapter to your computer.
3. Make a folder on your computer to back up the contents of your SD card.
4. Install Minitool Partition Pro Home Edition.
5. Run the Partition Wizard.
6. Look for your SD card along the bottom and find the FAT32 partition.
7. Right-click it and choose "Move/Resize Partition."
8. Change the value of the partition size until your "unallocated/free space" is around 750 - 1000 MB (this is how much internal memory I recommend)
9. Click OK.
10. Find the unallocated space on the new drive map, right-click on it, and click "Create."
11. Click "Yes" on the warning that pops up.
12. Choose Ext2, Ext3, or Ext4. Stock/stock-based ROM users, choose Ext2. I recommend Ext2 just to be safe for all other ROM users, in case your kernel doesn't support it. If you know for sure that your ROM supports Ext4, then Ext4 is fine as well.
13. Make sure it is a Primary Partition, not Logical.
14. Click OK.
15. Click the Apply button on the top left corner of the window.
16. Choose "Yes" to continue.
Let it finish. Then, step 1 is complete.
Credits: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1933849
Step 2: Adding init.d Support
Tools:
- BusyBox app (make sure you use the normal install, NOT smart install)
- Terminal Emulator (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm)
- Term-init from Ryuinferno (http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426791)
1. Download Term-init.
2. Install BusyBox from Google Market/Play Store.
3. Install Terminal Emulator from Google Market/Play Store.
4. Place Term-init at the root of your SD card.
5. Launch Terminal Emulator.
6. Type: su
7. Grant SuperUser access if prompted.
8. Type: sh/sdcard/term-init.sh
9. Follow the on-screen instructions from the script that is run.
To check if it worked, reboot your phone twice and browse to your /data/ folder (using an app such as Root Browser or ES File Explorer). If it's working, you should find a Test.log in there. Congratulations, you now have init.d support and you're ready to set up INT2EXT.
Credits: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124
Step 3: Flashing INT2EXT(+)
Requirements:
- init.d support
- sd-ext partition (ext2/3/4)
- 100 MB of internal memory for every 500 MB of external memory
Tools (choose ONE):
- INT2EXT: http://d-h.st/Fvz
- INT2EXT+ (recommended): http://d-h.st/Otj
NOTE: If you already have a A2SD/D2EXT/INT2EXT/M2SD script, you will need to remove it completely.
1. Download your chosen script above.
2. Place it at the root of your SD card.
3. Reboot into CWM (Recovery).
4. Select "Install zip from sd card"
5. Select "Choose zip from sd card"
6. Select "CronMod-****_signed"
7. Let the script run.
8. Select "Mounts and Storage" directory.
9. Select "format/sd-ext"
10. Reboot.
You should have INT2EXT on your system now (check your internal memory to make sure). If you have any problems or questions, look in the threads given at the credits before asking here. Also, here are a few other great tutorials on flashing INT2EXT if you can't get it to work following mine:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223190
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490607

A friend of mine has the Wildfire S and asked me to do something about the low storage. I will try this tutorial in a few days and I hope it will work It seems harder to do INT2EXT on that phone than it is on my old Desire ^^
Thank you!

I guess no problem with the init.d script? Because I already make it work in terminal. This command is just to run the term-init.sh.
And i made it worked already.
The problem is with the script i guess. I read here in comments someone also complains about status 0 error.

Thanks for the tutorial!
I know this is an old thread. But I had to resurrect my wife's old HTC WFS to use while one of our phones needed to be repaired. I couldn't find a good stable ROM to run. Ran through your tutorial and it was just fine.
I did run into a "System UIDs Inconsistent" error after the last step and ended up doing a factory reset and all was well! Tried a few other steps before that like "fix permissions" and clearing caches etc. but in the end needed a full factory reset.
Great job! Love that we can got back to these threads!
Thanks thanks thanks!

Problem with buttons and wifi
This trick works for me great, but my hardware buttons (home, context-menu, back and search) are not working good. Also my wifi cant find any network. Can someone help me with these issues please ?

I found the most easiest way, no need to make unit.d by yourself.
So here the step
1. Flash this Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2143410
2. Make SD card partition ext 2 with your CWM recovery. I choose 1024 mb
3. Flash cronmod file just like this tutorial tell you.
4. Reboot, and now you have internal storage about 800-900 mb.
