Zip is not what you need. You need to get an img file of the recovery you want to flash. You can then do that via Fastboot or Android Flasher etc. Flashing the zip from wherever is still just fake flashing.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
No. you don't have to un root. You can flash unrevoked on a rooted device

If you are s on, use unrevoked. Else use the following from fast boot:

fastboot flash recovery cwm_.img

if you have to move directory i think that you have to do: mv -v -t source dest

cause -t is used for specified that you want move a dir and -v to show what the command are doing....

for the ln command use this format: ln -s /my/existing/directory thisismylink

...and i see that you wrote "1n" and not "ln" but maybe is a paste error

Problem for build mimu 1.5.20

It's a good application.

I put the miui_HD2_1.5.20_3nhrpwvbo7_2.3.zip into the cwm_rom folder, and copy all *.ko files that extracted from the system.ext2's \lib\modules folder in the miui_HD2_1.5.20_3dak_SD_2.3.4_ACA_r518.7z into the kernel folder, then a system.ext2 file was built with no errors.

I replaced the origin system.ext2 from the miui_HD2_1.5.20_3dak_SD_2.3.4_ACA_r518 by this file, run it from my HD2 SD card, all was fine expect the GPRS. The origin system.ext2 hasn't this bug.

What's the different?
[HD2 Android SD Development] bigx86:
Ty 3dak for this. Are there no way to do this in Windows?
[HD2 Android SD Development] 3dak:
the different is my system.ext2 opened PPP mode while official MIUI ROM didn't.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ketzazu:
in Ubuntu, how do you extract files from system.ext2?

Any

comprehensive

step by step?
[HD2 Android SD Development] 3dak:
Just mount it :

mkdir /mnt/mysystemext2

mount -t ext2 -o loop system.ext2 /mnt/mysystemext2

then go to /mnt/mysystemext2 folder to copy or modify
[HD2 Android SD Development] ketzazu:
Thanks! I'll try those commands instead.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ketzazu:
No matter what I do the system.ext2 is always missing in action, nowhere to be found even after I "sudo chmod 777" the folders. I always get the error "system.ext2: No such file or directory"

I have ubuntu installed in a different drive than windows 7

This is what I did: BTW, I always have to sudo since I don't login as root

I put this zipped NAND "Runnymede_0.82.401.1_v1.3_Tmous" to the folder as you instructed,

I extract all the ".ko" files from this ziped ROM and put them in the "kernel" folder as instructed.

I go to terminal and i sudo the bash command. It spits out the system.ext2 file with a lot of other files.

I copy the system.ext2 file to the Desktop.

then mkdir /mnt/mystemext2

then mount -t ext2 -o loop system.ext2 /mnt/mysystemext2

I sudo chmod 777 the folders to be able access them. I even drag the system.ext2 from the Desktop to the /nmt and mnt/systemext2.

Still, all is empty.

What am i doing wrong?

When I try to copy directly system.ext2 to /mnt or /mnt/system.ext2 I get "not enough space error" but I don't see anything in the "lost+found" folder or anywhere else.

And also what program to use in Ubuntu to be able to open and see and edit the contents of system.ext2 in the folder?

PS. What are the instructions to use tools.zip for ROM making?

Thanks!
[HD2 Android SD Development] 3dak:
put system.ext2 in your home folder,

then open terminal,

cd ~ (this will goto your home folder)

ls (check if you can see system.ext2, if no, you put it at wrong place)

mkdir /mnt/mysystemext2

mount -t ext2 -o loop system.ext2 /mnt/mysystemext2

-----------------

or if you want to keep the created system.ext2 is mounted, just open the 3daksystemext2builder.sh,

#now unmount system.ext2

umount $mount_dir

change to

#now unmount system.ext2

#umount $mount_dir

this will keep the system.ext2 is at MOUNT status after the system.ext2 created. check folder /mnt/system and modify or copy

remember to umount it after you finish your work,

umount /mnt/system

htc sense converting

Mr 3dak,

tanx for your great work man. but how we can convert sense builds with your structures ?

I mean there is different size in system.ex2 file between MIUI and sense files. After converting, the output file is same as MIUI ( 258 MB ) size.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ketzazu:
He provides a script at his MUI build page to increase the system.ext2 size. It might be found at the first page of the thread.
[HD2 Android SD Development] RedApple:
i know and u are right. but if there was same way to converting sense builds, it could be more better for guys like me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] 3dak:
yes, you can.

1.firstly you should check Nand(CWM or cLK) sense build's folder size of "system", write it down, and then you have your sense build's system.ext2 file size: system folder size + 100MB enough.

2. open my script, find following line:

# Now create a fresh empty 250MB system.ext2 image file and format it.

dd if=/dev/zero of=$script_dir/system.ext2 bs=1048576 count=250

change

count=250

250 means 250MB system.ext2, just change the value you want (unit:MB)
[HD2 Android SD Development] RedApple:
thanks great man.now,we can enjoy of all builds in our SD like nand versios.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mttca:
I found an interesting issue with my 2 years old Touch Diamond 2. Don't know whether someone had the same so I'd like to post here for reference.

Few months ago after a phone drop I found a circle of black pixels on the screen after I (as in the attached image), that didn't react on any actions. So I though those were dead pixels - a lot of them!!! BTW, I dropped the phone many times before that.

The most interesting I found later is that in the last winter, the screen had recovered itself - the "dead" black pixels became lighter and lighter and fully recovered - no traces at all :)

Last week the similar appeared again - this time 3 areas with black dots - and again, after a phone drop. Thinking about the winter time - I tried putting the phone in a plastic bag and left it in the fridge for a night. As the result the black dots became lighter. So I decided to leave it in the fridge (without battery) for the whole weekend. And as expected - the issue is "fixed" - no traces of "dead" pixels remain :) Already one week since then, the phone still OK.

Can anyone explain me what is behind the issue and the way it could be fixed as above?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
I believe the "dead pixels" are just collapsed layers of the digitizer.

The coldness probably just firms up and separates the layers.

You could also try pulling the layers apart with duct tape.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mttca:
The "dead pixels" I was about are "on" the inner screen, not the outer. So I think it is more likely a LCD issue rather than digitizer, which is sticked with the outer protection layer as I understand. Am I right?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McRIP:
Exactly the same

mttca,

when I read your post I thought you were talking about my Topaz

I really dont know why or wat is the cause of this type of circle.

Last summer i had the same issue and it disappers after 3 days like you say;

the "dead" black pixels became lighter and lighter and fully recovered - no traces at all

but aprox. two month ago i get the "dead pixels" back, but this time my screen wont recover. This pixels are darker after using for some time the phone and became lighter after some hours without use. :(

I`am not sure to leave the phone in the fridge. :confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doodoodie:
Circle of Dead Pixels

Hi all, sorry to revive this thread - but the same thing happened to be about 2 months ago.

Got the infamous circle of pixels after dropping the phone - I thought the LCD was damaged, so I bought a new one off ebay and replaced it and it worked great.

Now I've managed to drop the phone again and have an almost identical circle of pixels on the new LCD.

So I'm thinking, does the FRIDGE TECHNIQUE actually work? Should i pull apart the phone and just put the LCD in the fridge overnight? Might even try that with the old LCD as I still have it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidConvert:
The fridge technique does seem to work. A few months ago I dropped my phone and got the "dead" pixels in random clusters on the screen. They were blue in my case when the background on the screen was white. They went away after a day or so.

With the more recent second drop, they did not go away. They did seem to become lighter over night (phone screen off, thus no heat) and became darker when I used the phone. After waiting 4 days and the blue stuck pixels not going away, I decided to try the fridge technique.

I took out the battery, SIM and SD card and put the phone in the fridge for an hour. After removing the phone and powering it on, I noticed that most of the blue pixels had vanished, but some still remained. The ones that did remain were indeed lighter. I did not put the phone in the fridge again that night. The next day, the blue pixels that had vanished because of the fridge technique had come back, but this time it seemed like they were forming a slightly different pattern. In fact they started forming small vertical lines. I guess that's why it's called a Liquid Crystal Display?

Anyway, this time I decided to put the phone in the fridge over night. So again I took it apart and wrapped it in a plastic bag. The next morning I had a perfectly clear screen - all the stuck blue pixels / line fragments had vanished. A few hours later of me using the phone, two or three adjacent blue pixels appeared.

It has been two days now and the two or the pixels that reappeared turned into a group of about 20, again tending to become small vertical lines. This, however is a small percentage of the stuck pixels originally showing due to the second drop. The rest of the stuck pixels seem to be gone.

My plan is to put the phone in the fridge again over night, hopefully eliminating all stuck pixels for good this time.

P.S. Sorry for the long post, I got a bit carried away :)

there´s no problem if you uninstall youtube.apk, LOL

[LG Optimus 2x] stevvie:
If they made 2 models. one like we have with a 1500 battery and one that is 1.2-1.4X thicker with lets say a 3000 battery I think almost everybody would choose the slightly thicker 3000 battery model.

These devices are small enough as it is, they should now stop trying to make them smaller as they are surely limited by the screen size, and make them last longer.

I had a Del Axim X50v a few years back that I brought an extended battery and battery cover for, this actually made the device feel better in the hand.

Only tested twice from over 70% to full on 0.5A. Took longer than using AC adapter. Tried it once on 1A but got a bit hot quite quickly, so I switched over to 0.5A.
