[Q] Few questions about flashing custom ROM.

Hi all,
Successfully rooted my Desire today using Unrevoked method.
Since I quite like the Sense UI, I've decided on flashing the "[FroYo Sense] LeeDrOiD V2.3b (17/12 l Official l OC&UV l FAST l STABLE l WWE)" ROM.
My phone software details are as mentioned in the signature.
a. Can I flash Leedroid without upgrading radio, etc?
b. How exactly do I format my SD card in ext3 partition? [Can't find a tutorial/thread to do the same.] --
Also, regarding using gparted in linux, do I directly, say use card reader/connect the phone and format? Since I have a 16GB SD card, I intend to have a 1 GB ext3 partition.
What exactly does "Flash Rom (you may need to toggle signature verifacation)" mean? :-o
and
"# Flash Radio (unless you already have it)"??
I am following the steps/instructions from this link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768703
Thanks in advance.
Radio is fine (don't flash any radio until you really know what you are doing), to toggle signature verification go, in recovery, to 'install zip form sd' there is the option to toggle verification.
How to partition your sd cared with gparted is mentioned enough, do some more searching. There are also some videos on youtube on how to do it. If you have the ability to use a cared reader use it.

So, with the radio version I have, I can still flash LeeDroid ROM, right?

Although, it is said that flashing the radios recommended by the dev would be better for battery life, but I guess it is quite open to interpretation.
You could also try using Rom Manager (by ClockworkMod) to partition your SD card through your phone. That's what I did. Less hassle (probably?) than using gparted or installing additional software on your PC.
ROM Manager (from the market) is your friend.....
Will allow you to partition an EXT3 (up to 512mb - Im still trying to figure out how to create a 1GB partition) and then will allow you to flash LeeDroid ROM.
ROM Manager is very simple to use. Just copy the ROM (zip) to a folder on your SD card, use ROM Manager to create your EXT3, do a NANDROID backup (!!!), and then flash the ROM.
Best bet is to backup your apps and data first (use Titanium ?).
LeeDroid ROM is great

To easily create your partition up to 1024 MB, you can use an Ubuntu live cd of GParted by either burning it to a cd or boot it from a usb stick: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download.
Or, you use it from within Ubuntu (vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVK-tJe8pXE&feature=related)
1) Connect your phone to your computer (or use an SD Card adapter...., in this case skip to 4)
2) Pull down the notification bar and mount the phone
3) Start Gparted
4) Gparted will search available drives. (Your phone should show up as a USB drive, and will be something like /dev/sdb1 or /dev/sdc1, etc..)
Warning: double-check you've not selected a hdd by mistake!
5) In the upper right corner, select the correct USB device for your phone. (i.e. check to make sure it is correct size for your SD card)
6) Right click on each partition and select 'unmount'
7) Right click on each partition and select 'delete'
If you know what you are doing, you can re-size the partitions and add a new 2nd partition formatted as ext2/3/4
8) Right click on the big gray bar (should say unallocated x.xx gb) and click 'new'
9) Enter configurations
Free Space preceding = 0
Create as = Primary
New size = [don't touch]
File system = fat32
Free Space Following = 512 (or whatever you want)
10) Click add
11) Right click on the big gray bar (should say unallocated x.xx gb) and click 'new'
12) Enter configurations
Free Space preceding = 0
Create as = Primary
New size = [don't touch]
File system = ext2/3/4 (recommend ext4)
Free Space Following = 0 (or ~32 if you want swap)
Click add
13) Click edit, then 'Apply All Operations' to write changes to disk
14) Quit GParted
15) Unmount your SD Card
16) Reboot your phone
You could also use Amon-Ra custom recovery to do this by flashing it with unrEVOked.

its the Linux bit that scares me I work in IT but have never touched a LINUX OS so im a bit daunted
Hi, if you have win7 use arcronis disc director home, its the easyest way, i did so, and i'm a non it
I have now 1.5gb of ext3, and it works very fine.

It is very easy to follow the instructions posted above, I even linked a YouTube video for you and gave you a link on how to create the live cd. You should be fine, give it a go
You won't believe how easy it is... its just because you are unfamiliar with the OS platform.
If you are really struggling, then try this method but be careful as you will be connecting via USB to the PC and executing an automated script (batch file). While the batch file i running, do not disconnect the USB cable while in recovery mode:
1. Turn on your phone while holding the volume down button.
2. You will see HBOOT on the screen.
3. Use the volume buttons to move up and down and power button to select the RECOVERY option.
4. You will now see a red triangle on the screen, at this point plug your phone into your PC via your microUSB cable.
5. Wait for 10-15 seconds and then double click on recovery-windows.bat inside the pushfiles_windows.zip folder you unzipped as part of the root process. pushfiles_windows.zip
6. Using the optical trackpad select Partition sdcard > Partition SD
7. Select SWAP=0, EXT2=1024 and allow the rest to be FAT32.
8. Select the SD:ext2 to ext3 option in this menu.
9. Go back to the Recovery Console main menu and select Reboot system now. While rebooting, unplug the Desire from the USB port.
Windows Pushfiles attached below for you.
Thank you all! And MasDroid, thanks for the detailed instructions. I do have Ubuntu on my desktop. Tried formatting on a spare SD card using GParted and seems to be just the perfect thing. I'll do some more reading before flashing the phone. I do have some more doubts. Wanna make sure that I know what am doing.
@ wilbur-force
Dont know, a friend of mine gave my arcronis, think it was the full version. G-parted did not find my cardreader. And the 512mb whit rom manager was not enough space for me. Sorry for my bad english...
Its my 3rd language

Are the following steps in order and correct (to flash LeeDroid ROM)?
a. Create Nandroid and Titanium backup of the phone.
b. Copy the contents of SD card to a folder onto the PC.
c. Format the SD card with FAT32 and ext3 partition (A2SD+)
d. Copy the LeeDrOiD_V2.3b_A2SD ZIP folder to the SD card (root)
e. Insert the SD card to the phone and boot into recovery
Doubt here: Do I need to 'Wipe Data / Factory Reset' again??
f. Install zip from SD Card.
g. Choose zip from SD Card.
h. Reboot System Now.
Are these steps correct?
Also, after flashing how do I restore the Nandroid/Titanium backup? Do I have to copy the contents (step b) back to the phone and boot into recover and "restore" using Clockwork MOD??
Thanks!
Yes correct order.
Wipe again? In your list I can't find the first factory reset, but yes you should wipe data/factory reset, cache and dalvik cache (under advanced) at that point.
After flashing you can restore your apps with titanium, restoring the nandroid (in recovery) will revert your phone back to the state it was of the nandroid so leedroid will be gone. Personally i don't use titanium so can't tell you how to do that, but i sync my apps with appbrain and reinstall them again after flashing.
I do know that is you want to use titanium the backup needs to be copied back to the sd card.

Do I have to do a factory reset from recovery at first?
Also after formatting the SD card with the FAT32 and ext3 partitions, do I copy back the previous contents of the SD card back to the phone along with the LeeDroid ROM?
Not before the nandroid if you meant that, wipe before flashing leedroid. So once you're in recovery to flash the rom, first wipe data/factory reset, cache and dalvik cache and then flash leedroid in the same session (without rebooting).
Best is to copy back the contend of the sd card, however if you want to start with a clean cart you can also just copy back the clockworkmod folder and the titanium folder.

Thanks again mate.
So here's another of my doubt -- say, I copy the LeeDroid ROM to the SD and boot into recovery to flash the ROM and do a factory reset, would this not delete the ROM also from the SD card? My first ROM flashing and hence these doubts :-o
Thanks for your patience.
Can I just copy back the Titanium backup folder after booting into LeeDroid ROM? :-o
Sd card won't be affected by a factory reset nor by flashing.
You can copy the titanium folder whenever you want.

[Q] how to create partitions for A2SD

Hi,
i am interested in flashing the following ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861690&highlight=insertcoin
it requires me to have an EXT partition:
A2SD (and yes YOU MUST HAVE an EXT Partiton after the FAT32 one)
can i use ROM manager for this? i haven't used it before so if someone can outline the steps that'd be well appreciated. plus is there anything else i need to do? as you can tell i'm very new to this so i need all the help i can get
p.s: the reason i posted this here and not in the development forum is cos i don't have enough posts to make any comments in the development forum yet.
thanks a lot!
I can't post in the dev forums either. It's an annoying rule isn't it. The other annoying rule is that you can't post URLs either, so sorry I can't give you any links for the stuff below.
I used gParted livecd to partition my sd card.
Steps are:
-Download the iso
-Burn it to the CD (burn as a CD image, not as a regular file)
-Boot up your PC with the CD in
-Answer a few dumb questions about your preferred keyboard etc until the GParted screen comes up
-take the SD card out of your Phone and stick it in your PC
-wait a min or two for GParted to recognize it, then choose you SD card as the drive
-shrink the existing FAT partition to make room for the new ext partition
-create the new ext partition of whatever type your ROM recommends (ext2/3/4) and whatever size you want
-apply the changes
Most guides I've seen say to wipe your SD card first, but I got on just fine with shrinking the existing partition without wiping, then your data is preserved.
There are plenty of gParted tutorials with screenshots.
Just be sure to partition your SD card and not your PC hard drive
from one newbie to another, hope this helps
You can also try your recovery, some of them have partitioning tools built in. I have CWM Alpharev and in the advanced menu, there is an option for partitioning your card.
For the usual A2SD+ Roms out there, partitioning with Recovery works very well.
AmonRA 2.0.1 or ClockWorkMod Recovery should be suitable.

so i found the following instructions to partition via ClockworksMod Recovery:
A. backup your sd card to your computer. can't stress this enough, as partitioning will wipe the entire card.
B. Reboot into recovery
c. In android system recovery, select partition sdcard
d. In the partition sdcard menu, select partition sd
e. Follow the instructions on the phone to partition your sd card. You can optionally set a swap file while you are partitioning your sd card.
F. In the partition sdcard menu, select sd:ext2 to ext3. Follow the instructions on the screen.
G. only perform this step if you want ext4 and your rom supports it: in the partition sdcard menu, select sd:ext3 to ext4. Follow the instructions on the sdcard.
h. Press the back button on the phone to go back to the main menu.
I. Put the a2sd file on the sd card (and all your other files you backed up earlier) by selecting usb-ms toggle and transfer the files to your computer.
is the above correct?
furthermore:
1. when i do a backup, whats the backup file called so i can copy it to my pc?
2. i already have a rom with no partition installed. before i create a partition (steps above) should i do a full wipe (cache/partition) and then proceed to the above steps?
thanks!
The above sholud be correct.
1. Backups are located SDcard/Clockworkmod/backup/[date the backup was created]
2. No you, don't need to wipe anything, only if you want to flash a new ROM.
<OT> why would you want to post this in the ROM development forum? This has absolutely nothing to do with ROM development! So why are you complaining? Apparently this seems to be a useful rule... ^^

sorry if i'm being pedantic, but just to clarify (i do want to install a new ROM with a partition) the steps would be:
1. do a full wipe (cache/partition)
2. partition SD
3. install new ROM
does that sound right?
and thanks for previous reply.
you can use custom recovery ver3

You should make a nandroid backup as well as a copy of your SD card. Have you done this? If not, a quick search will give instructions on how to do it, to ensure you can return to where you are now if things don't go right with the new ROM for some reason...
Otherwise, yes. Your steps are correct! Good luck...

CWM 5.0.2.7 ignoring ext partition?
Hi everybody. I have installed CWM v5.0.2.7 on my SONIC U8650 smartphone. I'm having a slight problem with this recovery (same occurred with previous version 4.0.1.4). It's not saving the ext partition that I have on the sd card. When I perform a backup through CWM, it skips the saving of sdext as this partition is not being found. Also, with previous CWM version 4.0.1.4, there was an option to manually mount the partition (just in case it is not found at the time of backup) in the "Mounts and storage" option. This option is no longer present in CWM 5.0.2.7 so I can't manually mount the partition (whether this would let CWM recognize the partition and make a proper backup of it). In the end I'm not able to have sdext fully backed up (I resorted at doing a manual backup on my notebook with LINUX with partimage) along with all the other partitions such as /system, /data, /cache etc etc. I therefore wonder if this is a bug and if there's a way to get around this.
I have another smartphone with CWM v5.0.2.3 installed and on this one the backup of the sd-ext partition does work (and it is ext4, not ext3). I wonder if on this 5.0.2.7 version for SONIC, ext3 partitions would be recognized or not.
P.S.: The CWM 5.0.2.7 I installed was taken from here. And this is the installation guide. Is this the same CWM as the one posted here?
EDIT: I have flashed even this version posted here and still the same problem.... it desn't backup my sd-ext partition. It does backup boot_image, recovery_image, system, data, android_secure, cache but not sd-ext (no sd-ext found).

Hi dude:
If you wanna sd-ext on your sd card you must follow (exactly) this easy steps.
1- Full format in FAT32 your SD card with Mini Partition 7 (windows) or gparted (linux); per example: Primary FAT32
2- put your sd card into your phone and get into recovery menu.
---go to "mounts and storage" and format this parts:
---/boot
---/cache
---/data
---/sdcard
---/system
3- Go to the beggining of recovery menu and select:
..."wipe data/factory reset"...(say YES)
..."wipe cache partition"...(say YES)
Go to ...advanced ..."wipe Dalvik Cache"...(say YES)
...go back...
5- Go to...advanced...partition SD card (say 512Mb to ext and64Mb to swap)
...go back...
...go to...mounts & storage... mount USB storage...
... conect the phone via USB and pass your favourite ROM to the cellular
6- select "unmount"
7- Go to "Go Back"
8- Select "install zip from sdcard"... "chose zip from sdcard" and select your ROM
10- Say YES and wait untill your ROm is installed
Congratz, now you have your U8650 with custom ROM and ext partition with swap
P.S. I know the steps are some tedious think but, it works at 110% man

Am stuck here with an At&t fusion which a friend purchased a not long ago. He set it up with a lock pattern but unfortunately his colleague took it up and tried more than 5times. Now the phone is asking for the gmail account used to set it up. Which he did not change when he got it. I would like you to give a step by step guide to get the cwm on it in other to flash it with custom rom. The menu can't be accessed so I thought your method would be the best.

Sorry for the late reply and many thanks for the tip. I have been using the SONIC so far without the need to restore the system which works fine, so it was not urgent and therefore I kept it as it was, never tried again to overcome the problem. Only a question: does this procedure (different from the one I used) let the system correctly generate the backup of /sdext partition in CWM? Because I don't see why it would work with this procedure and not with my current sdext partition, which I created using gparted on a linux notebook.
Easy as pie, thank you.

I've been having similar problems with creating/saving the partitions. I used a procedure like yours and managed to get the partitions created.
But your write hits it on the head......thanks.
