Data++ is a hboot. If the rom requires you to flash it, then you need to do it.

or rite lol

Have you changed your system partitions? Revert back to Sense partitions. N1's or Oxygens are to small to get Sense to fit in there

Yes i revert to stock partitions.

A bit redundant but you need bravo stock layout and not bravo sense.
Yes i reverted to stock (250 mb /system) .. Cleared cache. But same. Tried for 3 times.

When you flash an aosp rom with stock partitions, how much of free space does it give you after a fresh install without installing any apps?
( go with me on this). You might have bad blocks on system partition and sense rom might not be able to overlap them while writting.

That sounds logical. Is there any other (more reliable) way to find out if system partition was damaged?

It surely is from adb. But cannot recall ob how. Maybe a quick search in forum. Sorry that i cannot help more but im on mobile app.

Which version are you using? A2SD, X-Part or D2W?
Did you made a full wipe before flashing?
I think you have to reflash it...

Okay man chill for now, just to be sure:
- kernel you use now
- recovery you use now
- os you use now
nandroid if you have, and from wich state (before root/custom os)
- the RUU ver of your phone (which do you need, if you don't know tell which country and carrier you use)
Titanium kernel.I did a nandroid backup after rooting.before flashing any roms

Then you will need the ruu of your phone (as I see yours will be from Lebanon the asia 2.09.707.1) from wich you can extract the boot_signed.img because you will need the stock kernel. (this step can be left if you want to stay at the custom kernel, but then OTA will not be install if it will be)
Go to cwm either from hboot or
adb reboot recovery
flash the nandroid backup, and you're ready to go.
If you want to return the stock, flash the standard recovery of the phone (and then the stock kernel is necessary too)
ugh nvm

S-off s-on

Hi I recently bought my Desire and I want to ask what those 2 terms mean.
Sent from my iXperiA 8s using xda premium
If you have s-off, you can access the system partition of your ROM to write files to it with a root explorer app.

s-on = security on
s-off = security off
basically with s-off u have pretty much full control over uf phone, but the main reason for s-off would be so that u can change hboots to gain more internal memory (data). u can still flash roms if ur s-on and rooted but if things go wrong, its much easier to fix if ur s-off. goto Desire Android Development, theres a few guides there, google "Alpharev" to learn a bit more about hboots and look here, my personal fav

Also is hboot something like kernel? Because some roms u can use stock hboot or custom hboot and im just curious.
