Hey,
after flashing Jikantaru (no matter if XE Asia, 1.1 Euro oder Salsa-Port) i get stuck in a bootloop.
I'm S-OFF via XTC Clip, installed CWM and flashed the ROMs via CWM. Before flashing i wiped everything including dalvik and sd-ext.
I use a 8GB Class 10 microSD with 1GB ext4 as secondary partition.
I've absolutely no idea what's going wrong - I need your help!
Thanks!
Moritz

Boot into recovery, clear the cache partition, then go into Advanced and clear davlik cache. Reboot. If that doesn't work, something is wrong.
Thanks, tried that and managed to install Jikantaru Euro without Data2SD. With Data2SD installation failed (never ending bootscreen).
Is ext3 required or will ext4 work for Data2sd as well?
Ext3 only unless you use alquez kernel Ext4 will work. But if you are on Ext4 it will automatically convert to ext3 if you use stock kernel.

Hi
Playing around with my rooted htc deisire i tried to flash the new RcMic HBOOT
After doing god knows what
i cant start my phone and keep having this message
Error in CACHE: recovery/log (No space left on device)
please help
Give us more information what you did before.
Did you full wipe/factory reset & wipe cache? What partitions do you have on SD Card, are you S-OFF?
yes
i am s-off
i did wipe cache/wipe factory reset
i tried to restore to my lee droid 2.4 but my phone keeps looping from the start
What partitions do you have on SD Card, which HBOOT you are using, which version of the ROM you flashed?
i flashed this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988570
i have no partition
hboot 6-93.1002
Did you read first post?
It clearly says you need 1GB+ EXT2/3/4 partition on SD card. Thats why you getting errors and end up with bootloop.
Also if you have Stock HBOOT be sure to flash A2SD+ version, and CM7 version if you flashed CM7 HBOOT partition table.
Before flashing again be sure to perform Full Wipe/Factory reset and Cache wipe!

I cannot find rcmixs hboot. Only recommend one for this rom, which is cm7. You flashed this one? If, you cannot restore leedroid rom, because the /system partition of cm7 hboot is to small. If not, wright partition sizes of your hboot here.
Swyped from my HTC Desire using XDA App
sorry guys cant really follow
what you are suggesting?
right now i cant flash anything
Reformat your SD Card, make FAT32 partition + 1GB EXT4 partition. (backup data if you have important files on SD)
Full wipe/Factory reset + Cache wipe.
Download RCMixS_v2.0_A2SD+_BravoHboot.zip if you have Stock HBOOT or RCMixS_v2.0_A2SD_CM7Hboot.zip if you flashed CM7 HBOOT earlier and put it on SD Card.
Flash it, and wait... it takes a bit longer on first boot!
Enjoy.
if i dont want to flash rcmix and want to go back to my old lee droid rom, i have to do all these things you describe?
Yes you need, but just flash LeeDroid ROM instead of RcMix.
You need to do the rest tho because LeeDroid require 512MB+ EXT2/3/4 partition too for A2SD.
Btw. you need to repartition your SD card only once, then you just wipe and flash other ROM if you want, but EXT partition is mandatory!
repartitioning using which method?
g parted or through windows?
sorry for all the questions

GParted. With windows you cannot create an ext partition, because ext is a linux file system. But i would always use gparted or recovery of phone to partition sd card and never windows.
If U dont wanna use Gparted, then
use "MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition" in windows. (freeware-use google)
Can make all partitions, with no problems!
thanks very much guys
just finished
everything as before
followed your direction and i am back to business
Will this work for partitioning htc desire in windows. Tried Gparted but for some reason it wasn't working for me on boot.
hello I have a little problem
cant boot after install the a2sd nor the xpart version of this rom.
stuck on htc logo. it wont reboot. I know it has to reboot itself after flashing.
I have a fat32 and 1gb ext3 partition.
before having a ext3 I have a ext4 then reformatted my sd card using gparted.
wiped everything as in full wipe.
checked the md5 and all are OK
tried other aosp and sense based roms
all are ok.
by the way my phone has S-OFF pvt3
SLCD with cm7r2 hboot
is that helps.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11410738&postcount=4

How long do you wait? First boot can take up to 15 minutes.
One of the things xpart will try to do is change your ext3 partition to ext4 -- this might take time -- some report up to 45 min.
having ext4 partition from the start might help
Hi guys,
I know that there are many threads about this topic, but no one of them helped me to find a solution for my problem. I hope somebody of you can give me the right advise how i can fix my phone.
These are the steps I did:
- Unrevoked Root
- AlphaRev S-OFF
- Installed Bravo CM7 r2 (by doing wipes in recovery-mode and install PB99IMG_cm7r2.zip)
Now I wanted to install one of these ROMs:
[ROM] Aurora v02
[ROM]Cool3D Sense 3.0
I proceeded like it is described everywhere. I choosed "Wipe data/factory reset" and "Wipe Davik" and then clicked on "Flash zip from sdcard" and choosed the zip.
However, my phone will stuck in a "quietly brilliant" loop. I proceeded a few times without success.
What did i do wrong?
You need 1gb ext4 partition on SD Card.
Repartition your SD, wipe everything and reflash again.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
What Hboot you have?
Usually roms have two versions - stock and alternative hboot version
If you have stock hboot table use stock rom
Yes all you need is to download the right version of the rom cool3d CM7 r2, partition your sd with first FAT32 and the second EXT4 partition. 1gb EXT4 is enough. then wipe everything and flash your rom. then boot the rom set it up, restart it and flash app2sd (stockusers.zip from coolexe), don't flash a2sd right after the rom!!

Do what he says and it will work...
If you want even more space, then flash Bravo CM r2 hboot from alpharev...
Remember to update your radio also...
There is some small bugs in the ROM, but they are easy to fix
Sorry, just to add if you are on cm r2, you may flash the rom, run it, set it up, and then reboot and flash a2sd.kd.zip it will move dalvik cache to sd-ext, as i understand his roms for cm r2 contain a2sd from the start. so you get all aps on sd-ext and also dalvik on sd-ext.
Hi,
I've search on this forum but i didn't find the same problem i have.
My device is a HTC Desire S-Off CM7r2
My SdCard is formatting like this : 1024Mo Ext4 /// 2976 Mo Fat32
I wanted to try the AceS v3 (ginger 2.3.5 + sense 3.0) so i cleaned my SD card, then i made a full wipe in the recovery (AmonRA) and then i flashed the Rom.
When i rebooted my device, i was on the parameter screen (the first screen after flashing a rom) and i had a pop-up who said 'the process com.android.phone has stop...' i push on 'Ok' and the message came back 2 or 3 seconds later, without stoping. I rebooted my device once, nothing changed.
I rebooted into recovery and did the same, full wipe then reflash. Still the same problem.
So i ran my nanbackup and came back on my CyanogenMod7 and i didn't have this problem.
If someone have a solution or an idea about this problem i could be really helpfull to try AceS's rom
Wipe davlik,data,cache.. wipe all! And try to flash the Rom again.
How did you partition your SD card? With gparted or recovery? Did you flash the right version of AceSMod (so the one, which corresponds with your hboot)?
Did u make full wipe? if yes then retry, flash the rom and then just flash the EXT4 alignement script.
good luck, i am using this rom its realy fast and stable.
@droidmeup i've wiped everything
@MatDrOiD I've partitioned my SDcard with GParted and i've flashed the CM7 r2 version of the ROM
@Psykodali When i flash EXT4 alignement script it gives me a boot loop when i restart
Did you created first fat32 partition and then ext4 partition and were both primary?
SwiftKeyed from dGB using Transparent XDA App
Yes, it's what i've done

Did you flash this before or after flashing the ROM? This is supposed to be flashed before the rom is flashed.

SwiftKeyed from my HTC Desire using XDA App.
I have the same problem..
I'm trying to use sebastian15's Runnymede 4.8 ROM.
Any ideas?
I flashed the CM7r2 hboot, wiped data, cache, dalvik, rebooted to recovery, flashed ROM, rebooted, now I'm stuck at HTC splash screen.

I guess you should partition your SD card: the most common is 1gb ext, rest is fat.
I already did that using gparted. 1gb ext4 and rest fat32
Set both partitions primary? Created first FAT and then EXT partition?
SwiftKeyed from dGB with Transparent XDA App
ya both are Set primary partitions . I have created the fat partition first and then ext 4.

Same here guys,
CM7r2, 1GB EXT4, 7GBFAT32. Used Aurora 0.41, decided to change to insertacoin as aurora wasn't very stable and looked like partition wasn't working correctly. Pus, EXT4 partition is gone aswell
My sd card isnt readable on Recovery either (recognisable on pc though).
I've tried fastboot oem enable qxdm 0 - Still nothing. Card gives "unable to mount" message. Been at this for 8 hours now....
BUT, when i insert different sd card - seems fine...

OHHHHHH,
Finally looks like i'm all working.
I had to use my spare sd card to load Oxygen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971904
This enabled me to reformat my sd card (that was unrecognisable previously) on my phone - after rebooting the phone twice to recognise the card ( mounting and dismounting).
Card is now back to full capacity of 8GB. I've applied EXT4 1GB again, loaded Insertcoin and it's all GOOD!!!!
In terms of faulty EXT4 - performing fastboot oem enable qxdm 0 seemed to erase all the partitions and bring the card to factory state.
Hope some of you will find it useful.
Good luck to yall and MASSIVE thanks to those posting advice on this forum!!!
The case of vidrom is not the same as mine. see the first post it state clearly that i can't flash rom with cm7 or cm7r2 hboot. nothing to do with card can't recognise. I'm still searching for a solution.
Hey rajesh1108,
Have you tried flashing with Android Flasher ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638
I found it to be the easiest way to getting around flashing.
I was once stuck with at boot load and basically redid everything from the beginning using a different guide. Try following this:

Sorry i cant be specific - i'm quite new to all this.
GOOD LUCK!
What rom are you trying to flash?
@vidrom:
Excuse me, but how should your post help the OP?
I solved my problem! Updated my recovery to a new version of Clockwork using ROM Manager.
i'm trying to flash runnymede 4.8.
Yorba which version of recovery are u using. how did u proceed. updated recovery and then flash hboot(cm7r2) and then flash your rom?
I would flash Hboot, recovery and then rom. Are you sure you wiped everything? Created an ext4 partition with at least 512 MB?
ya i have flash the same way you have mention and my ext 4 is 1gb
