Develop Bugs

[Q] help me decide.

Hi
I was previously running MIui ROMs with D2we script and S-on.
Have just had issues with my SD ext not mounting for wipes and on so I am effectively starting from scratch.
So I am going to go down the route of S-off etc but am unsure of the whole selection of H-boot and rom to choose.
Basically I am looking for a Stable rom preferably with sense (at least 2.1 and ginger) and apps2sd.
So hopefully a kind person with experience of some ROMs and h-boots can assist.
Also I you can suggest partition sizes for my memory card (class 6 8 GB)
Thanks much.
(Working today so can only respond at break times)

I dont know much about rooting but i used supernova rom and its great much quicker than the 2.2 froyo i was running

Try RcMixS v2.0, it's Gingerbread with mix of Sense 2.1 and 3.0.
You need 1gb+ ext2/3/4 partition and either Stock or CM7 HBOOT. (i suggest CM7)

thanks for that.
when you say the cm7 hboot is it the one from alpharev site below
Bravo CM7 r2 145M 5M 287M 0be8c68b41f3ab6dda4f772d6de50760 bravo_alphaspl-cm7r2.img PB99IMG_cm7r2
also, will i need swap in partitions?

Yes it's that one, and no - you dont need SWAP partition.
Just FAT32 - 1GB EXT 2/3/4.

[Q] InsertCoin hangs on wallpaper

I have a problem with InsertCoin A2SD+ 1.0.8. After flashing everything seems OK but it shows me Desire's default wallpaper and then.. nothing. Nothing happens. Can't see the buttons etc only wallpaper and top status bar. I flashed it 2 times already and still nothing. Of course I wiped all data/cache.
This may have something to do with S-OFF?
SD Card
2.5 GB FAT32
1 GB EXT3
~100 MB EXT3
~100 MB SWAP

Your SD card partitions are not appropriate. You need two partitions: fat32 for you stuff and 1gb ext2/3/4 for apps, both primary. Nothing more, like third partition or swap.

Right after I wrote first post I changed partitions on SD card to ~2.80 GB FAT223 and 1GB EXT4 both primary, wiping, flashing and STILL ALL THE SAME

Hm.. Then?
- Do you have the correct hboot?
- Did you wipe Dalvik as well?
- Maybe a corrupt download?
I'm out of ideas.

Yep, with ROM manager

Nope, I downloaded it 2 times.

I wouldn't use ROM manager for things like this. Try wiping/flashing manually, in recovery. ROM manager likes to cause problems to users.

Rom manager is a really bad software. Better use gparted.

are you following correct order for partition??
1st fat 32
2nd ext 3/4
if you have windows then try partitioning with some software like easus partition manager..also order is very important
also see to it tht you are downloading the rom for stock hboot..the rom is available for stock hboot and cm7 hboot

I used InsertCoin Sense 2.1 1.0.8 A2SD

Do you use the recoomended radio? 5.17.05.23?
You can download from here.
This one is recommended.
I remember my friend flashed this rom with and older radio and he got bootlops/hangs - flashed the latest one and it worked.

[Q] Can't get Cool Kingdom to work smooth

I would like to use Cool Kingdom, but what ever I do, include full wipe, I cant get Cools roms to work smooth. Everything is working slow and get hangups.
Have really good space all over and about 100 mb free memory
I really want this rom to work.
Any ideas???

hi there
which hboot do you have?
what class micros sd card do you have?
first you need to use gparted and delete all partitions on your card( backup whatever you need on the card)
then remove all partitions
create the fat32
create the ext4
format both in gparted
now put the card in your pc and copy the rom.zip, alignment.zip and weather pack
put card in your phone
boot into recovery
wipe factory reset
wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
wipe battery stats( i always do this but it shudnt matter)
then install the alignment.zip from the sd card
then the rom
then the weather pack
then reboot
and it should be ok
im using a class 10 microsd tho

Hi, thanks a lot.
I have ext3, must I have ext4?

Speed's are better on EXT4 and if the ROM actually recommends you to use EXT4 then you should have EXT4.
Be sure to always use what the specific ROM requires(radio, Partition etc.) to ensure a nice run of the ROM.
L.E.: Also make sure you have the latest Radio the ROM recommends. It is pretty important.
Hope this helps.

Radio won't update

I have made a ext4 and flashed the rom, but when I try to flash the Radio, nothing changes.
The Radio is maybe the key to my problem now, because the rom is sooo slow!!
HBOOT-0.93.0001
Radio-5.17.05.08
Before I used InsertCoin Nightly A2SD v51 at ext3, it worked smooth but I missed some i that ROM.

Still not working smooth!

Now I have correct ext, radio and partition is s-off and so on... but the rom is still not working smooth. Expecially when I open an app.
Getting frustrated...

you will never get a perfectly smooth rom with sense 3.0 due to the Desire's "hardware limitations".. Cool Sensation worked okay for me

Do you know the main differensieres between kingdom and sensation?

sorry no lol.. I don't really use sense ROMs anymore. On Cyanogen since I find it the most reliable in every situation

[Q] EXT3 to EXT4

Hello there,
I'm with the rom RunnyMede AIO V2.2
And it seems that the A2SD++ will work only with EXT4, I mean, I have no idea what partition I have because I made it through the CWM Recovery 3.0 [and I realized if I did it through the Recovery, Chances 99% it EXT3]
and probably that's the problem appears to me that partition is not exist.
I was looking for a solution without doing re-partition because I afraid to do the entire section of the partitions on that program to run in Boot through Windows.
And I found something in one of the Roms with Sense 3.5 on the developers forum, download ZIP file named "Alignment_Cool_2".
According to creator of the rom there, this ZIP file installation via Recovry, who passes the partition from EXT3 to EXT4.
Now my question if it's reliable? If not, is there another way? If so is it requires reinstalling the rom or formatting the partition? Or just what I have to do is install it without having to do anything else?
Thank For Answer!

Hi, im using 4ext recovery and backed up my fat32 partition and after that i created a ext4 Partition with 1.4 gb behind the fat32
Works great for the a2sd+ option

Should I have S-Off to install this recovery?

It is not required but it is always good to s-off the device. I made this with the stock hboot and did not have any Problem with that.

Anyway I did S-OFF and downloaded 4EXT Recovery, and now it's converting from EXT3 to EXT4, Thank you very much!

Ok. Hope that it works on your device too.

Yes it worked!
but I have another question ^^
I understood that I should install cm7r2 hboot to install XD2SDX script.
so...
1. Is XD2SDX Better than A2SD++?
2. Is it good to install cm7r2 Hboot? If it is, how can I do that? is this dangerous for my device?

I think you get more space to install apps with that Script. But i use stock hboot and the normal a2sd script. It seems more stable... and i have after 50 installed apps 50mb free. I think thats enough.

By using the search you will find out everything you need to know about hboots.

[Q] Need a stable ROM to replace stock for wife's wildfire S

Hi all,
Sorry - I know you get a lot of "which is best" but I've been going around in circles looking at all the different ROMS
My needs:
Wifeys's phone keeps running out of memory.... the old story
want to replace the std ROM with one excluding bloatware
want to use apps2SD to make best use of limited space
Need a Stable ROM not the latest and greatest, just a fast stable ROM (Android version doesn't matter - she'll be using it for photos, mail, txt and facebook)
Don't want to be updating it in future - just one stable ROM to put on and forget.
Please could you offer suggestions
Many thanks in advance
Nick

I am in the exact same situation but I do have the marvelc (MetroPCS). I have tried MESSYSENSE and insink71's ROM but don't know enough to disable the A2SD scripts on my own. I have the bootloader unlocked, but S-ON; installed clockworkmod recovery, and upgraded to hboot 1.10.
I have a 4GB sdcard which I want to partition in 3GB FAT32 and have 1GB internal memory.
My wife wants me to spend $100+ in one of the newer phones but for what she uses the phone for the Wildfire S with 1GB internal memory would really make her happy and save me some dough! So I guess a stock ROM with init.d and rooted should do the trick once I run CRONMod INT2EXT+
Help please!

I give up. Thanks for the ROM but I follow the instructions to the letter and after flashing CRONInit2ext+ i get into a boot loop. I partitioned my SD card using Partition Wizard, 504MB EXT2 and the rest, 3.2+ GB FAT32, both primary. Don't know what's wrong, guess I'll have to shell the dough for a new phone for the wife...

Doing it now, it's stuck in the first HTC screen, the one that displays HTC in bright green, before it goes into the the softer green font and displays the carrier. That's where it takes a long time or on the one after?
518MB primary partition formatted in EXT3, about 3.2GB in FAT32, primary and first partition. Installed your ROM after full wipe, ran the script and formated sd-ext like it says. Boot loop, after the MetroPCS logo it reboots back into the HTC quietly brilliant splash screen. What the heck could be happening???? I'm S-ON but unlocked. Could that be it?
I can confirm it's the script because I flashed only your ROM and the phone booted OK. Will try running the script again after 1 boot to see if that works. The only thing left to try is that the OP of CRON's thread says that some phones have problems and to mount /system before flashing the scripts.
No luck, boot loop. One thing that I don't understand is why doesn't is why programs like Link2SD cannot see my sd-ext partition. Could that be it?

Yes, that's exactly what I did. Let me try a2sd+ and see what happens.
a2sd+ didn't go into a boot loop but my space didn't increase. So to everyone out there AVOID the MetroPCS HTC Wildfire S. This has been a nightmare, Crossfire77 I really appreciate your help and your patience. Tomorrow the wife gets a new phone.

it won't show you space like int2ext+
but it has space.its similiary like link2sd.
you try to install apps and then see your internal space won't decreased.

Nice stable rom
I've tasted a few roms since I rooted my wildfire S and I have the same answer for everyone that looks for a stable rom:
- WildJOY joyOS There haven't found any bug at all on it and it's quite smooth. The only "problem" is that if you don't like iPhones this interface is not for you.
