with an modified initrd you could boot an system.img from sdcard. to switch between roms you could use an config file with someting like this "boot_system_from_sd=0|1".

Cor blimey missus - some people are never happy - Cooks a ROM, it works, it's got good memory - AND HE'S UNHAPPY ABOUT IT - You should try some of MY attempts at cooking, then you'd have a problem
I guess the reason is because the base ROMs from the kitchen are much more stable now, and the cooking process is so well defined (cheers mattk_r etc) that all WE are really doing is defining which components we want from scratch, instead of using a lite ROM and adding CABS (almost).
Anyway, stop moaning and if you ROM is so good then release it for all of us
Let's test babu23's 1.0
please release the rom. we might enjoy it.
MY [email protected]!!
i can make great rom but i dont know how to make a cab from it or how to publish it as a rom(exe)
i can make rom in kichen then add tons cabs but when its ready
how can i make one file of it so when we press it it will upgrate
(hope you understand me)
Mate, if you wanted to make a rom - or anything else you wanted - available for download, you don't ned to package it with anything.
Just put whatever you're sharing in a Zip file and use any from rapidshare, sendspace, megaupload etc etc and just put the link on the forum.
(If you did want to share a ROM, just take the RUU wrapper.exe rfom any rom you've downloaded and include it in the zip file with the nbh. All you need to do. Everyone's got RUU wrapper.exe somewhere though so doesn't matter if you don't.)
no you didnt understand i got the rom then i upgrade my phone then i add the cabs files then when my phone got it all idont know how to take the rom with the cabs from my phone out az zip file or somthing like that
when i making in the kitchen i got only the rom without extra cabs but after i update the rom to my phone i add the cabs to my phone how i take it out as cab file from my phone(hope you got-it)
Not sure what you're asking here - I think it's either:
How do you get an app that's built into a ROM and extract it and make a cab?
or
How do you create a new ROM which other people can install, i.e. starting with a ROM you downloaded, then you added programs cabs, and now you want to create a ROM that's like that?
If it's the second one, you need to get the ROM you downloaded and put it into CorePro kitchen, then turn the cabs you're installing into OEM packages, add them into the kitchen and make the ROM.
All the instructions you'd need for that are in the CorePro thread.
If it was the first question though, you're better off looking for cabs other people have made and posted somewhere for download.
Of course, your question may be neither of those in which case sorry, I've wasted your time again

MIUI Themes Iconpack etc

Hi Guys
I will change my ROM today to MIUI- I love the XJ MIUI- he runs on my Device Perfect. 4 Days Batterylife and no Problem whits Apps or Settings
the first Question is- Should i go S-OFF and use DATA or S-ON whit A2SD+, which EXT partition is the best for it- EXT2/3/4
the next Question is- Have anyone good Links or Post here on XDA whit nice/good Themes, Bootloader, Icons, Widgets/Gadgets (German Language maybe ) or whatever
I hope anyone can help me and Sorry for my Crap English
1.) I used the a2sd type and I had plenty of space. You just need a fat32 and a 1gb ext4 partition on your SD card, both primary.
2.) For themes, you should check the last section of the Desire forum: Themes and Apps. You just search for "miui" and you will find a bunch of threads.
Now, I have a question for you: how do you get 4 days battery life? Or 4 days with charging?
4 Days whitout charging. I use my Phone not much so is easy to go 4days

1) yes to S-OFF. for A2SD+ EXT partition, EXT3 or 4 will work either way.
2) there's s**t loads of miui themes on xda. just search up 'miui themes' or 'miui XXXX' X being whatever u want to search for.

WinMo 6.5 and NAND Android possible?

Hello,
I have been researching for a while trying to find an answer to my question but hadn't
found a solution. I would like to know if it is possible at all to have an otion during cold
phone boot-up to select to boot to WinMo 6.5 or NAND Android?
I have been running Android from SD card for a long time but it seems to me that the
SD development is slowly coming to an end. So, I would like to have a way to select a
recent NAND Android build (must me CM7 variant) and still have an option to boot to
WinMo 6.5 (exclusively to run iGO8).
So, dear forum users, I would be very grateful if someone can shed a light on the matter.
Thank you!

there is no space for both operating systems to live in NAND all together.
What i would suggest, is install iGO on Android if that resolves your problem.
P.S.: wrong thread
It's possible to run HD2 nand Android Sense & GB and Desire nand Android GB from an HD2 with a WM6.5 rom, you can use portadroid for that.
I've an HD2 with WM6.5 dutty rom, and I run Oxygen 2.2.2 (GB235), HyperDroid-CM7-v3.0.1 (GB235), Desire HD 3.06.405.1 - Sense 3.0 - Android 2.3.5 and NDT SENSE3.0 PYRAMID BASED V7.0
I also use igo8 for WinMo and Android, you can share the same map directory.
Oxygen 2.2.2 is super fast.

How to enable original HTC boot sound on SuperNova 2.4.0.0 rom...

Hello from Greece,
I have flashed my HTC Desire with SuperNova rom v2.4.0.0 and I noticed that there isn't any boot sound during phone's startup...
But with root explorer I found an mp3 file at path... /data/local with the name "_android_audio.mp3"...
In order to re-enable the boot sound with the original HTC startup sound what can I do...???
Do I must replace this existing file with the original one, although the two files have the same size...???
Or I must flash a signed file containing the sound I want from recovery mode...???
Thank you very much...!!!

Thank you Droidzone for your fast reply...!!!
Sorry that I didn't post to the appropriate thread in xda-forum, that concerns exclusively your excellent rom, but due to I'm a newbie I didn't have the rights to post there...!!!
By the way, I use your rom about two weeks and I'm very happy with its performance...
No lags, very fast and stable, so many apps and games on my Desire for the first time... it's something great.... and the strange is that I use a SanDisk 16GB SD card class 2...
Thank you again for your amazing work and your efforts to this project...
Have dreamy days and Merry Christmas...
Merry X'mas to you too!
Guys, first of all, Droidzone. I am using your Suernova ROM which is perfect except one thing, which is really annoying for me. The ROM turns off by 15% of battery, which makes it quite unconvinient to use. What should I do to make it turn off only by 2%?
(I raised the question here, because I am newbie and not allowed to post to the topic related to Supernova ROM, and I cold not get the answer anyywhere.)

How is this related to the topic title? Incidentally, this has nothing to do with the rom either. Check for battery issues/calibration guides. If it still face issues, open your own thread/post in something similiar to your issue.

M99 Google 4s

So I recently bought the m99 from fastcardtech, and rooted it easily with SuperOneClick. I am unable however to install ClockworkMod in any way or form on the device. It identifies itself as a G2x in the model, uses a MTK 6573 processor.
Anyone else have this phone and figure out a way, I'm completely lost and have search for a good week now trying to figure out a way to get ClockWorkMod on this thing.
(also I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this in, since there is no forum for my phone model).
Hi There ,
would you please tell me where can i download the original ROM or a full backup for this phone .. i got this phone yesterday and i managed to root it and delete all the chinese apps .
Thanks
Hello

Thanks

Hello
You have the M99 with Ui iphone?
Did you have the room original? Was nice we get this room available, before try the OC and new rooms.
Any bugs find yet?
Thanks
help me too.. is this a bug?
Did you have the market worked on your phone?
My version is 2.3.6 from android, but the markets i install open, then when i try to download some app they market (process com.vending.android) has stopped unexpectedly
You have this problem to?
Guys ..
To root this phone you have 2 options :
1- SuperOneClick 2.3.3
2- The Chinese root
both are listed at a thread called (Gooapple v5 issues) on this fourm . you also need to install the the drivers for this phone which btw are the same drivers for the GooApple v5 , cuz both phones use the MTK6573 .
for the market problem .. try to install an older market ver.
now I have the phone , but unfortunately things went south couple days ago when i installed some fonts from the android market and forgot to change the permissions . the phone now is stuck at start up logo ,, i tried the wipe and restore to factory options but nothing worked .. the only way i can get it to work is to flash it with the original rom again .i've contacted Fastcardtech to get the update.zip rom for the M99 Google 4s+ , but i haven't heard from them .
so if you have the update.zip rom for M99 Google 4s+ please post a link so i can download it ..
Thanks
Thanks for reply!
Wich market version you use?
Your M99 was from fastcardtech? android 2.3.6?
Well i can help you but im noob in android, how can i get this zip file, or maybe make a "image" of this rom phone like they came to send to you (if this is possible)

i truly appreciate you trying to help
i'm looking for both now (rom and a reliable recovery) that can actually work on our phones
i've been looking through the chinese forums in the last couple days , but still no luck .. the problem is the name M99 dosn't exist in thier forums they only have the old ver M98 .. so our phone must have a different name other than M99 ...
i can't really remember which market ver worked , i've tried alot of versions but i'm sure the one that worked was one of the old vers . i wish my phone was working so i can help ya there .
yes i got it from fastcardtech and it has the 2.3.6 with UI rom .
i'll keep looking and i will let you know .
Thanks
Did you try the cyanongean??

Did you try root your phone and install any rom?
If you know how can i do to save this rom and send to you it's ok i try.
For the market i used other one apdroid i guess the name and works

Hi guys, I am from the thread "Gooapple v5 issues" I could maybe help you as it is almost the same device.
@IIIVIII What happened to your phone?
Great News ..
i finally gained access to my phone's root while looping through Android Commander and i've managed to reset the permissions to the fonts and now the phone is alive and kicking
@ von275 & Mouratti .. Thank you guys for offering to help i really appreciate it .
here's how to get any Androidmarket ver working on the M99 :
1- root your phone.
2- install root explorer (attached)
3- copy the attached file (Vending) to your phone's root (system/app) and make sure u set the permissions as follows:
Owner: Read /Write
Group: Read
Others: Read
To make Google sync work for contacts do the same as the above steps for these attached files :
1-GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter
2-GoogleContactsSyncAdapter
btw. with root explorer you can remove all the unwanted chinese apps like youku etc. from your root (system/app) just don't go wild ..
i'll be coming back later on with more tweaks ..

for the official rom i'm still waiting for Fastcardtech to provide the update.zip .. once i have it i will upload it to mediafire and i'll post a link here for everyone to download .

Did you guys tried the gooapple v5/goophone roms on your phones? It should work because it is the same hardware.
Download for roms: www.anexonel.tk in the download section.

I didn't try, im noob in this, and im afraid stuck my device.
Which room is it?
@von275
the stock recovery on the M99 only allows the official M99 update.zip rom to be installed .. it won't allow the gooapple nor any other rom to be installed trust me i've tried .. besides the M99 has 2 sims and a different screen so i really doubt that it would work even if we try it with a recovery that allows custom roms ...
@Mouratti
i don't have the official rom yet we should all e-mail Fastcardtech and ask them to provide the official rom for us to download .. sooner or later somthing will go wrong with our android sys and we will need to flash the official rom again .
regarding the calender .. i will look into it when i get home hopefully there's a simple fix for it .
