[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gemni69:
Ok guys, Just sharing just incase anyone else has same issue. I found a post that said this.

"First thing.....dont use Rom Manager to flash anything on the GTab. It doesnt play nice with our tab at all. Second.....only use bekit 0.8 recovery at this time. Nvflash your tab back to stock. You can use the update.zip method to put bekit recovery on or just replace part9.img in nvflash with recovery.img from cwm 0.8. Just rename recovery.img to part9.img. You will then have bekit 0.8 after nvflash and skip a step"

So i followed that step and reflashed and it loaded CWM. Thx thebadfrog.

now that im in CWM i feel a little better. Now im formating the sd card to 2048 and 0. I read some where this will help with the boot loop issue. So lets see if this works. O lord please work haha..
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gemni69:
Ok this will be my last post. Im finally IN. Yahooo......

Thx the lord for these forms. The information here got me the answer. Hope these steps help someone with the same boot loop issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeast614:
ok so here's my situation....my EVO has a loose charging port and the power button is failing so i took it to sprint and they ordered me a new one...so i figured i would just nandroid when the new phone got here after re-rooting it and i would be good...but then i got to thinking that when i downgraded my hboot version from .97 to .76 i couldnt restore my previous backup because i switched versions...and i plan to root using the unrevoked method and i would assume they would install the lastest version of CWM witch would make my backup unusable right??...

Basically i just need to know if i would be able to restore my backup from my memory card right after i root it or if i need to jump through some hoops to do it...or if i just need to flash CM7 clean and start all over, which i would rather not do...so if anyone can give me an answer it would be much appreciated and i will give said person a kiss ;) *muah*....hahaha

thanks in advance

I'm 99% sure that this would not work...nandroids have to be from the same phone, not just same phone specs/firmware
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Even if your recovery would allow you to restore the backup, I wouldn't do it. You run the risk of restoring the wimax partition from the old phone on the new one, essentially borking your wimax. I could be wrong, though.

I would backup all of your user apps + data with Titanium Backup, skip the system stuff. Make sure you've synced everything to Google. Gather the rom you like & any addons, then run unrevoked. After it's done, flashing, restoring, and setting back up shouldn't take too long.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Active_Matrix:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeast614:

+1 I tried restoring one of my Nandroid backups on my GFs rooted EVO....no go.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dills2214:
Just be careful but this should be fine. You may be better off using an app like MyBackup *root* which is free in the market to backup your apps and app data.

I have used it to move apps from rom to rom, and a new phone would be no different.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinchenzop:
For apps...back them up via titanium backup, and you can restore them to a new/different phone

For contacts...open your contacts/people app..while looking at your contacts, press menu and choose "export to sd". This will create a file in your sd called 00001.vcf which contains your contact list and can be restored through contacts/people on any rom

Root your new phone, flash whichever rom you want...put your old sd card into your new phone...install titanium backup and reinstall your backed-up apps. Open contacts/people... press menu, import from sd card. Profit

I have seached every where to find a keyboard like the sense one that comes stock for evo to run on CM7. I have found the htc_ime kitchen which is pretty close but they dont have the arrow buttons to move the cursor.

Anyone have any idea where i can get a keyboard with arrow buttons to move the cursor for CM7?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serdna75:
The arrows are Sense only, I think. Some of the 3rd party keyboards may have the arrows, though.

However, I use the HTC_IME keyboard in CM7/MIUI with no issues. You can set the volume rocker keys to move the cursor back and forth.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krzych:
I will dig this, because there's no still any IME mod with cursor keys, and I believe it can be done, we just need gingerbread base for this one, not the foryo's, and maybe more, I don't know, but it should be possible. There are much more ppl who will use it.

By the way, "swipe" actions allow to move a word back and forth. It's not the same, but may ease your life.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
SwiftKey X has Cursor arrows
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharkboy0901:
Edit: nvermind lost
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krzych:
I know, but it's worse than IME. That;s why I look for IME with arrows
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AwesomeEvo:
I was going to say that but try Swiftkey beta 3.its pretty awesomer and i think u can add the arrows as a add-on
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krzych:
Again, Swiftkey X is worse. I see no other Swiftkeys in the market. By the way, Swiftkey is not free. Sense is... I had it on my phone as a factory default, so not discussing the licensing too deeply, it's like it would be free ;>. I just would like HTC DHD IME ported to CM7, or something very, very similar in the layout and features.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relentless D:
Just out of curiosity, what don't you like about swiftkey? I've tried out just about every keyboard there is over the last few years and I keep coming back to swiftkey x. The customizations, themes and predictions are top notch imo.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krzych:
Layout is worse. Some functions are not present (don't remember which ones, tested quite a few weeks ago). It's not free, it's a trial only which will stop working at some point leaving a user which used to it with a choice of paying or getting used to another - not worth of the time if you won't like it, if you will, then it's just a luck. It would be much better to make featureless free version than time limited trial (called "free" in the market by the way - not very polite to lie...)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relentless D:
To each their own, I suppose. I find that the location of the comma and period on the main screen (without having to long press or go to a page 2) makes this one of the best layouts out there.

happy hunting!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krzych:
Yep, I maybe just used to it too much, but it's too late now ;P. Thanks, but I do not know honestly I will stay with CM, so maybe I will just switch back to Sense... CM is buggy :).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relentless D:
If you are looking for another option outside of sense, I've been running Decks reloaded for a few weeks now and it is awesome. I've had trouble with CM being buggy in the past, and I get bored on sense roms but this sucker is slick and FAST. I've been flashing roms on this baby for nearly 2 years now and this is by far the fastest and most stable rom I have ever run:

Of course, this doesn't help your keyboard issue :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krzych:
Heheh, thanks, but it seems it doesn't help at all - I have HTC Desire HD, and there's nothing about Decks working on my phone :)
[General Accessories] jawz101:
Just bought a new microSDHC card & I decided to format it in Windows. Then I decided to see if Transcend had a formatting tool so I tried it and got better results, next I found the SD Association had their own tool SD Formatter...

Benchmarked with ATTO Disk Benchmark

Windows 7 formatted then Transcend Autoformat Tool

SD Formatter
[General Accessories] jawz101:
awe hell. after that apparent fluke i can't reproduce the results. Well this is dumb. removed some crap from the original post.
[General Accessories] MacaronyMax:
Unlucky, So the conclusion being... It doesn't matter what you use to format your SD? :cool:
[General Accessories] zarathustrax:
It's best to use the SD associations formatter if you need it formatted fat32 at 32kb cluster size, which is how SD cards are built to be formatted. Other apps probably can do just as good job, but you know the SD assoc app will do it perfectly. Using other apps or windows may format it similar, and speed will be the same, but since those formatters are made specifically for sd cards, tiny differences can cause problems with compatibilty.

To format anything, it's best to not use generic formatter and use app written specifically for media.
[General Accessories] bovcan:
eh, not worth.
[General Accessories] jawz101:
please disregard this thread in its entirety. this was a dumb thread I started because I thought I was on to something smart. It doesn't matter at all how you format your card. If anything, these graphs can show you how my Transcend SD card performs :rolleyes:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iModMM:
Hello guys, im still kind of a noob at flashing roms and stuff. I was interested into the SyndicateROM Frozen and was on EC05 so rooted then flashed. But I want to try out new roms. My question is since Im on EC05, can i only flash Roms that are for EC05? Like some Roms like VIPERrom say EB13, could I just download the zip and flash? Would I be fine? Also like CyanogenMod7 could I install this or do I have to be on Build number it says?

Could someone please reply back and clarify this for me. Really confused!

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iModMM:
Someone please help?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] || Acer ||:
You can only flash ROMs for EC05, and you can flash cm7 from any build #, so yes, you can flash that. Just be warned you may want to make a nandroid backup in clockworkmod to go to your previous ROM since cm7 is not yet completed enough for a daily driver, unless you're okay without a camera, SD card that doesn't scan, and no 4G. Check out some of the how-to videos stickied in the General section. Hope this helps!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtySimpleClean:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
he may have one of the captivates with a rare hardware defect that makes him incapable of using i9000 modems (jk3, jk4, jl2, kc1, etc). I have a similar captivate and am forced to use the KB1 captivate modem (check my signature), which unfortunately has no voice processing. it makes calls sound horrendous, but it maintains a constant signal. so depending on how he wants to use his phone, it may work for him (assuming he doesn't place many phone calls, just texts). if not, for now, CM7 may be unusable for him and you may have to fall back to a KB1-based ROM that uses a Captivate kernel/modem.

I suggest Torch + OverStock kernel + KB1 modem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtySimpleClean:
There's absolutely no way around it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
Please use the ROM-specific sticky at the top of the forum. That's why they're here.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
nope. if he has a captivate suffering from this issue, his choices are to use KB1 and have ****ty voice quality or use a captivate modem/kernel combination on froyo. until audience chip is ported, there will be no alternatives.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emckai:
I'm just wondering, I am currently using the MT4G on the ATT network, but i'm wondering why they didn't detect its a smartphone and add the smartphone data plan. Is it because its rooted and S=off?

My sister has the Nexus One, which isn't rooted, S=on.

When she uses the internet, ATT detects she has the smartphone and adds the dataplan.

I'm using the internet every single day and they haven't detected anything so far.

I did that 3x already. It won't notify me that usb cable is connected to PC. It will still charge.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
This may be a stupid question, but did it connect before? Are the LG proprietary drivers loaded?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] momentarylapseofreason:
My thoughts as well. Plenty have installed this without a hitch, not to mention it has nothing to do with that part of the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nraudigy2:
Yes I use to transfer files all the time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
Well then I'd say one of the modifications made by dexopt killed the pre-loading of what ever's on the phone side that talks to the LG drivers on the PC. I know a lot of folks are anxious to mod, but as flaky as the SW is on this phone and the lack of experience the devs have working with LG products caveat emptor.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Try opening the app "Rom Manager" and selecting the option "fix permissions" that will probably get you back to normal again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
No. This patch is very simple and straight-forward. Paul knows exactly what he's doing and it's been tested by tons on the O2x forums and many on these forums. His issue is isolated and almost definitely has nothing to do with the patch.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nraudigy2:
Probably why, I read alot people with missing preloaded apps after the patch.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
I'm not questioning the dev's skills and I know there are some rock stars that are tackling the G2X/O2X. But up until this phone, the attention paid to LG hardware has been pretty light because most of their phones have been mid-range. No one has "tons of experience on the O2X" because it's only been out a few months. LG's software implementation is funky as seen by the need for proprietary drivers, bizarre Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, radio, interaction, and treatment of SD storage. All I'm saying is that unlike HTC, Samsung, and Motorola phones this one's virgin territory.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] madwolf27:
Try going in to settings/sd card and storage. click the mass storage only box. I did this while plugged in to usb and it fixed it. I unclicked the box and its still fixed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nraudigy2:
I tried that too. I am going to do nandroid restore.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Did doing the fix permissions not work for you? I have seen this before and fixing permissions typically will fix it.

I'm also having issues with the patch. Ever since i patched, apps that require gps no longer work, and google maps force closes every time I open it.

I have the stock launcher installed in this version that screenshot is old. The Google lockscreen is included but not set as default ( trying to learn how to do this). I have remove Most of the CM stuff except for somethings i need to learn ( edit settings.apk to remove The CM settings ( which will not open when clicked on). All the apps on this rom come from a aosp rom for the DroidX( except for Terminal, Rom Manager, and File Explorer (which is very useful). All traces that i can remove so far have been removed.

[HTC Inspire 4G] motoman234:
Like stated above, you should work with a pure aosp base and you won't have to worry about any of that CM7 stuff. In my opinion, I think aosp is about as smooth as it gets when it comes to UI. I'm sure people would love to have a pure aosp ROM around here since there aren't any yet that I'm aware of.
