Hello, i am obviously new to this website and a bit of a noob when when comes to andriod rooting. Anyways, my HTC Wildfire S will not boot. It will show the HTC logo for around 25 seconds and turn off and do it again. My phone was rooted and had s-off. I tried to overclock my phone with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1430677 It seemed like the install worked but after it would not boot. I tried a factory reset, wipe cache, basically wiped everything and my phone would still be in a bootloop. Also tried flashing a rom and that did not work it would abort the installation. Also tried to restore to my backup i made, and came up with a md5 mismatch. I messed up big. For a while also my phone would vibrate like 8 times in the bootloop with a black screen but that stopped.
Here are my device specs:
Andriod Htc Wildfire S 2.3.4(i think)
MarvelC PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT_1.06.0000
MICROP-0354
RADIO-0.94.00.0824
Clockwork Mod Recovery v5.0.2.8
Here is a good Rom for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513697 and if you want an overclock kernel look for one that says marvelc

Left it on over night and its still opening package, pulled battery and now its stuck in htc logo.
Try to reinstall it again maybe it was just a small screw up and make sure you have a partition like out says in the ROM thread I think its 524mb our something but double check the thread

Did u make an ext partition before installing Rom? I would also try changing your cwm recovery to 5.0.2.6. I'm using the same hboot and device as you. Had no problems with that recovery. Also make sure u wipe dalvik cache, then under mounts and storage format boot, data, system, cache, and SD ext.

Do you have a separate partition on your SD card that is at least 512MB and is either EXT2, EXT3, or EXT4?

No need for the sorry. I tried the stock rom but if failed to install because of error in /sdcard/marvelcrom 2.0 status 0 that showed up after installation aborted. I need to find a step by step fix for this device im getting frustrated. sorry

Opinions???
SensuAOSP ROM vs. Shooter for the EVO 4G?
SensuAOSP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...ight=sensuaosp
Shooter
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...hlight=shooter
Shooter seems like a quick install with an amazing build!
whereas SensuAOSP ROM (amazing build as well) has:
1. Wipe everything except your SDcard 3x
2. Partition your SD card to 1024, 0 swap
3. Upgrade ext2 to ext3
4. Upgrade ext3 to ext4
5. Flash the ROM
6. Wipe cache and dalvik-cache
7. Reboot
8. Dont touch your phone for at least 15 minutes
Also, if anyone can direct me to how to perform steps 1-4 or elaborate - would rock!

Do you already have a partitioned sd-card?
SensuAOSP will NOT boot unless you have a partitioned SDcard.
SensuAOSP is an AOSP build (2.3.7) whereas GWs Shooter is sense 3.0.

You'll find it a few pages back in the dev section
In the recovery, youll see an option to partition your sd card, hit it, set swap to 0, and set the SDext size to 1024.. when it finishes, youll see an option to upgrade ext2 to ext3, do that, then select the option upgrade ext3 to ext4.
PARTITIONG YOUR SD WILL DELETE EVERYTHING OFF OF YOUR SDCARD
Do you have any more questions? Also, never apologize. I'm here to help.

Download whichever one, make sure it is smelkusMOD 4.3, and download the one ending with .zip, rename it to PC36IMG, and put it on the root of your SD, boot into the bootloader, and select yes when it asks to update, dont restart the system, then boot into recovery from hboot.

SensuAosp Help
Hi,
I rooted & flashed SensuAosp last night...I love it . Thanks for the clear instructions (definitely one of the easier ones ) So its running. But I have one issue. I've searched Google'd and even read through over 156 pages of forum q&a tips tricks etc..
So my problem is that some of the apps (Facebook, Slice It, etc) won't open (error msg & force closes) .
Went to Google play (figured maybe they needed updating) its stuck on downloading but doesn't download ( using WiFi).
I cleared cache, uninstalled play update, cleared service framework, even cleared media storage, & reboot several times.
None of them worked.
My mobile service SPRINT is intentionally disconnected I have an abundance of wifi. Why is this not working?
Here are my specs:
PC36100
Droid Version : 2.3.7
Baseband: 2.15.00.19
Kernel V: [email protected]#1
CPU info :ARM v7Processor rev 2(v71)
Men info: 194MB/414MB
Mod version: SENSUAOSP 2.3
Build Date: Monday/1-21-13
Build Number: Gingerbread

What recovery are you using? If you're using amon ra v. 2.3 it's under the other menu, and called fix uid mismatches. If your using smelkusmod, it's under the other menu, and called fix permissions. If your using clockworkmod it's called fix permissions

Hey, I tried it...even did it three times just in case and still a no go. I even rebooted cleared devlik cache etc. three times also... I'm stuck ... I loooovvveee my new ROM...
P.s. I think SPRINT put a hex on my phone since I'm temporarily boycotting their retarded service ...
H....E...L...P!!!!! *le sigh
hi partitioned my sd card so no probs there, ive been searching for that exactly i do with the partition now ive got it lol,
in titanium backup i can see theres stuff on the new partition but ive no clue whats on there, so whats it for & how do i put things on it & what things? but most of all why did i make it in the first place?? lol
you're supposed to research this stuff before you do it...
i also hope that you've used either gparted or 4ext recovery to parition (not minitool...)
basically the partition is generally for apps. it's better than normal android 'move to SD' because you can move all of the app, and can move widgets too. you can also move dalvik cache to sd as well depending on the script.
this all depends on what rom your are using and what built in script (if any) it uses to move bits around.
further reading here, i'd recommend reading through more of those guides just for more general learning...
titanium backup will show that the partition is filling up. better apps like 'diskusage' will show you how all your partitions are being used.
i did try to find out as much as i could & the reson i did it before knowing why is cos i want to know i can do it more than anything else all i knew was everyone else is doin it so i needed to know how lol
thanks for the link i'll enjoy reading it
i used rom manager to do it hope i used the right one cos everone else seemed to be useing it

Yh, dont use rom manager (cwm) to partition ur sdcard, it makes bad partitions. Like eddie says, use gparted or download http://4ext.net/ updater app then install 4ext recovery and use that to partition sdcard.
Dont forget backup first

installing 4ext recovery will remove clockworkmod
uninstall rom manager like you would any other app if you haven't already. you don't need it, and can cause real problems if you use it with this phone.

yh nandroid backup and save on computer also anything else u want to save. then depending on what rom ur going to install, partition ur sdcard to what ever the rom requires. so once u know that, boot into recovery go to tools/partition sdcard/ remove all partitions and start from scratch.
then ul have to choose size, normally most requirements would be this setup
1024 (1gb)
skip
skip
then choose ext4 and ur done.
just dont go bigger than 1.5gb ext4 (1524)
check ron requirments first tho

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

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!

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.
Hello. Is there any chance to extend internal storage? Cuz it pretty sucks when u cant send any game cuz free space is only ~15mb left after downloading facebook;facebook messenger;soundhound and thats all. My HTC desire is running 4.2.2 android with cyanogen 10.1 v5.3. Have only 2gb micro sd card.

go here: http://4ext.net/ and download the apk
install it on your phone, and open the app to install the recovery
this will overwrite you current recovery which is fine.
Then go here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2125513
Read part 4 of that guide.
Once you are done making the partition, boot into your rom. Open terminal emulator and run these commands (press enter after each line)
su
a2sd install
y
n

I do same thing with clockworth recovery on my desire. Make a 1gb (vor less) partition with ext4 and then use a2sd after booting in cm10.1 v5.3 rom. Works fine.

You'll have problems later, you'll see.
You know, we aren't telling you to do something just because we're nuts. CWM recovery does bad partitions, that may damage the sd-card, and make the phone work slow.

lol i agree. When i first had to make a sd-ext partition i used cwm and it messed up my sd card. I had to reformat.
Also avoid minitool partition wizard, that messed my card up too
Done everything as in abaaaabbbb63 tutorial, made 1gb partition and now i got 113mb free on phone memory, is this right?
However, again and again guys, thank u, it works really good now!

yes if you go to settings>storage it wont display the free space on the sd-ext partition.
If you want to see that download titanium backup, and it will show you how much is left on sd-ext
I change rom, in time to give the error gave Dalvik wipe sd-ext, I've tried many things but could not fix, you know something about it?
Thanks
Its a non issue....I believe it just means your not using your SD card to increase your dalvik cache therefore its impossible to clear it because you weren't using the feature in the first place

I 2nd that if I am not mistaken that is a feature that became obsolete with either Froyo or Gingerbread.

Please don't double post.. There's an edit button.
As for your question:
How can you fix it if it isn't broken. Just ignore it. Its irrelevant.. This has absolutely nothing to do with being able or not able to flash ROMs. It's much more likely you've flashed the official ICS ROM, or bought it pre-installed which has locked your bootloader. Follow the unbrick guide for your model if that's the case.. However, if you're unfamiliar with ROMs, or even just this model of phone as it sounds, it's probably a good idea to post your current rom, and more details if this is the case before doing so.

your error has nothing to do with the ext partition. I think your issue has a simple fix download the sd formater app for windows (google it) format your sd card using the default settings (do a backup first) and put your card back in your phone after you have restored your backup. You should be good to go. The format that LG uses on the stock sd card is incompatible with CWM.

As has already been mentioned, the Nitro/SU640 etc doesn't use sd-ext for its dalvik cache. As it's not used, you are going to get an error because your recovery is trying to wipe a path that doesn't exist. There is no need for it to exist in the first place, so the error really isn't anything to be worried about.
You say you cannot change ROMs with the sd-ext error... what exactly does it tell you when you try to flash a different ROM without trying to wipe dalvik?
When you change rom wipe dalvik without making the rom works with some problems, I have done tests but always gets something without working

What things aren't working? Just about all the ROMs have things that aren't 100% working correctly, random reboots (no matter how infrequent) etc. Are you sure you aren't mistaking the already existing bugs in each ROM for an error related to wiping dalvik? Just trying to cover all possibilities because dalvik is, if I'm not mistaken, on the system partition and gets wiped when performing a system wipe.
I just ask because I never even wipe dalvik...

Do all ROMs now do that or is it just JellyBam?

This is an LG NITRO forum so you might check on the Galaxy Note forum but on the Nitro you will have to reformat your SD card on a computer using the SD formater app for windows google it.
