[EVO 4G General] OneStepAhead:
personally i'm not losing any features, gaining quite a few. the attraction is the speed, stability, and battery life that can be obtained from a good rom. you are missing out. not to mention you can get 2.3.3 now if you flash, who knows when stock will arrive if ever.
[EVO 4G General] Product F(RED):
Please don't take this as an insult, but then why are you even here?
[EVO 4G General] Callie_evo:
Im using Koni's elite series III. Seems to be working really great.
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
Stock sucks, slow texts received suck, paying 30 extra a month to teather sucks, that's why flashing is worth it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tamen:
Hi there,

I've got a rooted DHD (unbranded, on Orange in the UK) and have Radio S-Off using the one click tool. I'm thinking about custom roms (perhaps leedroid or a gingersense, but I think I'll wait and see how stock gingerbread runs on my DHD before flashing anything custom).

-How can I take a *full* backup of my phone? (NAND I think it's called?)

-What else do I need to do to my phone? Do I need ENG hboot? What does that do exactly? And what about clockwork mod?

-After I flash a ROM what do I lose? Is it like doing a factory reset? What's the best way of backing up and subsequently restoring contacts, accounts, settings, SMS and apps?

-How long does flashing a ROM take?

-Is my SD card touched in this process?

-Which Rom do you recommend and why? (My phone doesn't need any more performance I don't think btw, battery on the other hand ;))

-Anything else I should know?

Thanks in advanced :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
Install ClockworkMod recovery either directly or by ROM Manager and using th backup function in either (ROM Manager is simply a GUI for clockworkmod recovery).

Yes. It will allow you to flash radio's and other cool things.

EVERYTHING. Yes. Google syncs your contacts. TiTanium backup will backup apps but I never found it 100% successful. Better to get used to possibility of having to re-download them. There's a vast number of apps to backup SMS. I like Sprite but MyBackUp Pro is highly recommended too. As is SMS backup and restore.

About 5 minutes.

No. Other than you will be placing files on it and maybe partitioning it.

I recommend Cyanogen but only you can decide what ROM you like best and your phone will tell you what ROM / Radio / Kernel it likes best.

Yes, all your questions are answered. The development thread is your friend as is the search box.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superstick1:
Yup, thats all about it. Lol.

If you are not sure, do not do anything. Ask first. Else you will increase the risk of bricking your phone.

Cheers mate.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tamen:
So I should get ENG h-boot, or I must get ENG H-boot if I just want to flash a ROM? Could you explain flashing radios please?

Thanks a lot for your very detailed response :)

Thanks, will do!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
Please read the relevant threads in the development forum as there is more info than I could put in one post.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stats101:
Was wondering which format to use for a CM7 App2SD set up? Does it depend on the SD Card being used? Also - Is App2SD without moving the Dalvik Cache a bit like native app2sd where the cache remains on the internal memory? In which scenario would I want to install something like DarkTremor App2SD and keep the Dalvik Cache on the internal memory?

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
I think cyanogen uses native froyo a2sd implementation, cache remains on internal and internal memory depletes rather fast. The best bet would be to implement a2sd+, there is a link in the oxygen thread with a script which moves cache to the SD. I have to say I have not experienced any difference performance wise between internal memory and my stock class 2 SD card, let alone the fact that a decent class 6 card easily outperforms nand memory.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stats101:
Thanks for the response. Don't think I was clear on my original post. I'm looking to use DarkTremors App2SD script. I need to first partition my SD card. Not sure whether to go for ext 3 or ext 4?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
I don't think you can go wrong with ext3, cyanogen supports both afaik.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stats101:
are there any performance gains using ext4?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
No substantial difference. Slightly more wear, slightly more speed. I changed a week ago to ext4, no difference whatsoever. I couldn't care less for slightly lower mtbf of my card though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenlime812:
If I try to update Clockwork Recovery on my Nexus S to anything newer than 3.0.0 (using Rom Manager), the phone will not boot into recovery and stays in fastboot mode instead. However, if I reboot and flash back to 3.0.0 then recovery mode works fine. Not a big deal, just curious what the problem is that's preventing me from using the newer versions of Clockwork.

Thanks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pterry30:
i had a similiar problem with rom manager, i reinstalled clockwork with fastboot on your computure, worked for me.then reinstalled rom manager. I am currently using clockworkmod 3.0.2.4.

Hi !

I bought 8Gb Kingston memory card on ebay, but when i put it in the phon, phone freezing, when i put out, phone start working. Somebody knows where is problem ?

Thank you for answers.

Hi Lloyds,

this sounds like the card is broken. Did you just test the card in an other device? Are you able to format the card?

Is it possible to backup the sense screens?
[Desire HD General] CodeNameUnknown1:
use an app called: 'MyBackup' >backup>data>local(or watever)> and choose 'Android Home'.

i used it when i was degrading my phone and it restored the layout of my htc home screen
[Desire HD General] Va_Alexander:
of course it is possible, I'm using Titanium backup, it will also save your accounts and all Sense stuff. BUT be careful when coming from sense 2.0 to 2.1 when you restore your HTC Sense backups they won't work and will force close all the time. (Well it was for me....:o)
[Desire HD General] magnum73:
Then you have to root to use titanium backup?
[Desire HD General] apoorvajsh:
You must have root to use much of TB's functionality.
[Desire HD General] torsrex:
It is possible to backup your homescreens without the use of an external program (I do this all the tme).

1. Press win key + r

2. Type notepad

3.Write down all the applications on your homescreen, something like this:

Hs1:

Weather widget

Hs2:

Clock

facebook
[Desire HD General] hopscotchjunkie:
Surely Windows and Notepad are both external programs?

//sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk; all errors entirely intentional.
[Desire HD General] torsrex:
Use a pen and some paper to write it down ;)
[Desire HD General] MaximN97:
With my Backup you can Backup Android home
[Desire HD General] torsrex:
You can also do it with titanium backup, but if you restore across Rom's you can face issues (bootloop etc). The safest method is to write down everything.
[Desire HD General] cmloo:
May I know which listing in TB that saves the Homescreen icons? I have been using TB and manually putting back the icons position. It would be great and time saving if i can get this back in just a click of a button

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD General] torsrex:
It is called [desktop].

You tap it and select backup.

When you want to restore, you tap it again and select restore.

why punish a whole community because you are not pleased with the actions of a few peoples ?

your rom for mini is great but really you action today removing the software and instructions is just childish.

well ok then im am childish idc
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sniperdude5768:
saying i would miss you would be bull crap because i don't know you :)

Yes childish to delete YOUR roms and your advice that was in the posts.

If i remember correctly in them posts you thanked other members/developers for helping YOU solve some of the issues with this rom i will assume then did this for the community/users and not you own personal use

You posted them on the forums for people to use, then you get upset stamp your feet chuck out your dummy and delete them like a big baby:rolleyes:

This is the actions of a child not a man so yes childish is the correct word.

I for one like you rom and i am using it now. but i am not about to beg you to stay either you want to develop here or not

on a final note you have been leaving for 2 hours are you packing your clothes?

atleast they respected me

you should make an rom for yourself the post i online here lets see what you can get (:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Moody:
Respected and still do.

There are people that are good at developing, but they would never even have looked at the phone if there were no custom rom capabilities. They were introduced by me, strongened up by owain and with a little help from willweer the rom was brought to life. I think without this, the devs like nobodyAtAll wouldn't even have bought the phone. But I could be wrong, I haven't been in this section of the forums for years, just covering my buddy's ass and telling people to deal with their ****.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] owain94:

that being said, it's his right to pull his own work from the forum.

For the past two weeks, a startup company called OpenRange.net has been spamming my snail mailbox with postcards advertising their wireless service. It turns out that OpenRange is reselling Clear 4G WiMAX.

My home is not yet served by the Clear WiMAX network, though OpenRange claim sthat WiMAX will be in my area shortly.

Do they know something, or are they just flapping at the mouth in hopes of scoring a customer?

Is there some sort of listing or other informational posting that says when Clear will be adding WiMAX to existing towers?

Straight from the Sprint page. It's been in Harrisburg since sometime in 2010 at least.
[EVO 4G General] rstuckmaier:
Map on Sprint's site or Harrisburg, PA

Apparently Clearwire made an app too
[EVO 4G General] ZachPA:
OK maybe I should have been more specific. My general area already has WiMAX coverage, but the coverage limit is shown on the map as about a mile south of my home.

I live in Lititz, a suburb in northern Lancaster County. On the 2nd floor of my house in a very specific location, I can actually pick up the WiMAX signal from towers located south of me. I've edited my WiMAX settings to be lenient with SNR for connections and such in order to obtain that very, very weak signal (-95 dBm if I'm lucky).

That said, OpenRange has been soliciting my business now for two weeks, claiming that 4G is coming to my area. Either this is one stupid company stupidly spending money on sending me and my neighbors advertisements when they know we can't get a usable WiMAX signal in our neighborhood, or they know when Clear is adding WiMAX to my local tower.
[EVO 4G General] Active_Matrix:
I actually received a promotional email from sprint. In the email they told me that 4G was now in my town of Bethpage, Ny. I flash a 4g rom and nothing!

I asked if there was a ETA, and he just kept repeating VERY soon (there was alot of emphysis on VERY LoL). Later on I found out to check on clear.com Sure enough it comes up in my town, but when I put in my address nada!

Many thanks!

After doing some more research today I figured I may not need another ROM. The Brazilian ROM seems just fine BUT it did change the baseband, that's why it's not finding the network anymore.
