someone please answer this man's question, as this is the exact reason why i ran away from this rom, went to sense, the pastures werent greener on the other side, im looking to return to decks, but like dude said, IT IS A DEAL BREAKER FOR ME.

i thought it was my phone, i flashed several sense roms, and they all had excellent wifi, even in the basement.

thanks

@rope & evo_like,

Ok, so what exactly do I nandroid to just backup my setup when flashing between ROMS? Someone said they thought it might be data and ext, is that correct? Also, I am assuming this only works when flashing between AOSP ROMS, or between stock ROMS, is that correct?

Edit for clarity: my sd is partitioned with ext3, running DT.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayshocka:

[EVO 4G Android Development] shinesthru:
From the post you linked to it seems as though you are talking about a simple nandroid. However, my question was in response to conversation earlier in which ropeadope said that if you are partitioned you can do a nandroid of your ROM setup, flash a new ROM, and nandroid restore the old ROM setup only without doing a full restore back to the original ROM. The point being that you can restore your set up and settings on a new ROM without having to set it all up manually with each new flash.

That is not to seem ungrateful, thank you for the response.

i think my assumption was you know how nandroid backup menu looks like using AmonRa. that's what this is, dude. using AmonRa recovery, you want to do a nandroid of your current set up....when you go to the nandroid menu, you will see options given to you in a list...you can check through those options to select what ones you want a nandroid backup of. In this AmonRA nandroid backup option menu, you want to choose/check what i just said above...after you have a nandroid backup of your current setup, you flash a new ROM (after your usual wipe wipe wipe of course...). and you can nandroid restore the backup copy you made.

make sense?
[EVO 4G Android Development] shinesthru:
We are talking about 2 different things. I am talking about restoring old system settings on a new ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evo_like:
i dont think we are......the long story short is, you have your current, lets say sense ROM, set up one way. you want the exact same apps and data to stay, but you want to try an AOSP ROM, right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] shinesthru:
AOSP to AOSP actually. Thanks for your patience. I think the phrase "set up" may be causing some confusion. I want to preserve app data and system settings not totally restore an old ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evo_like:
what is your meaning of 'set up' then? maybe that is the confusion...do you not mean that you do not want to have to re-download everything from market, and not have to lose game data or some other app data?

edit: ok i saw what you meant after i initially posted this. so yes, what i indicated earlier will work for you. when you do a nandroid backup, it preserves the apps, the app settings and app data. flash to your new ROM, and nadroid restore that specific nandroid backup.

i hope this is making sense, cos otherwise i am not exactly sure how to explain this better...
[EVO 4G Android Development] shinesthru:
I want to go from 1.3 stable to 1.3d. To me set up means system settings, i.e. status bar widgets & tweaks, lockscreen preferences, display preferences, etc. All that stuff takes forever to set up. It may not be possible but if you go back a few pages, I think that was being discussed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evo_like:
ok we are on the same page.

on 1.3, do a nandroid backup of sdext,Wimax,data,boot,system (like i said, I have done only sdext and data, and it was also fine for me).

wipe everything except sdcard...

flash 1.3d, flash your gapps with vm, your kernel you like, dta2sd beta 4,gps fix, reboot phone. after reboot, go back to recovery, do a nandroid restore of the backup0 you made when you were on 1.3

should work.

On a side note, let me jump on the bandwagon with praise for Go Launcher. I've been using it for quite a while now and couldn't be happier. I've used ADW and LP before, but always come back to Go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] shinesthru:
Where I am confused is won't doing a restore of "sdext,Wimax,data,boot,system" take me back to 1.3?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evo_like:
it shouldn't.

Ok, can i suggest you do the nandroid backup of just sd-ext and data? i know that has worked for me. no it will not take you back to 1.3.

another tip: wipe cache and dalvik before doing a nandroid...takes a little less time apparently.

Ok so this is probably my ignorance but I thought a full nandroid backs up the ROM itself. Is that wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evo_like:
yes, you are correct in saying when you do a 'full' nandroid recovery, but we are technically not doing a full nandroid by selecting all the options, right? i do not know the exact technical terms in what to explain this to you, but AmonRa gives you options to not only do a full nandroid backup but different custom options to do backups...

ok i am going to bed...gnight and good luck to ya. keep us updated cos i am kinda curious to see what happens...lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
For a proper backup you should check off everything except for the cache and the Android secure folder. Whatever the rom you were on when the nandroid was made will be the one that is restored.

[EVO 4G Android Development] shinesthru:
Ok, that is what I thought. So what did you mean when you said,

I was blown off earlier when I asked about this. I really did read the previous posts, but I still don't quite understand what options I should nandroid backup/restore to get this desired outcome.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
No what I said was that after doing a nandroid, flash any rom you want that there is no need to have to restore all of your old apps with titanium backup because if you do not wipe your ext partition they will always be there. I haven't had to restore any of my apps in months. If you accidentally do this, just restore the nandroid, wipe your cache, data, system and boot and flash away. That way you in essence restored your ext partition apps. Make sure you flash dark tremors a2sd before you boot in to the rom for the first time and in most cases you won't even need to setup a2sd from the terminal emulator. It will automatically pick up all of your apps. It certainly beats restoring your apps from a backup everyone you flash a rom. Why some of you guys restore to factory settings before flashing a rom is beyond me. You wipe out your ext partition for no reason every time you do this. Hello? If the framework is the same and the rom is the same but only an updated revision (example 1.3b to 1.3d where the framework is still 2.3.5) then you can easily get away with only wiping the cache/dalvik cache before flashing. And for the record the stock kernel should be replaced asap because it basically sucks. You can't undervolt it, its slow. If that's what you want then don't defend it just use it because there is no defense for keeping that kernel on your phone unless you want your phone to underperform.

1. I used DT for app2sd. I heard that a2sd is built into Decks but not sure what that means. Does it just mean that it allows you to go into manage applications and move to SD? if so, I never did that. Just DT

So, I reflashed without DT, downloaded S2E and tried a2sd that way. When i told S2E to reboot my phone, it did but when it came back none of my apps are installed on phone and I dont know how to get them back. I tried rebooting again but that didnt work either

2. Tried the repair, didnt work

3. Using the 8gb card that came withj the phone

sounds like i need to backup my card, and redo the partition?

thanks for the help by the way

EDIT: after doing s2e I no longer have gapps so i went back and reflashed gapps.zip and they are still not there. Market does not even work. now that i think about it I wonder if checking the option to put private apps on sd has something to do with this
[EVO 4G Android Development] Maikock:
ive tried to like go launcher but imho i think its more for if you like the touch of miui if without having to have miui... i just like lpp better cuz it has everything i want, the theming options i love and i LOVE sense and i love the sense widgets with the themes i love... its just the perfect setup for me :)

but go launcher is defeinitely a great app and i would recommend it to anyone before trying lpp just because everything you need for it is absolutely FREEEEE! :D

edit - but also one of the downfalls of LPP is that it never gets any updates but i guess it being stable is fine... im sure even tho Go launcher is free it has plenty updates : \ stupid lpp, thats the only flaw imo

[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
Clear app cache/data, wait a few and load it back up. No rhyme or reason to it. If still not fixed, manually search for an app you have in the market. Let the market uninstall the app, then reinstall the app. Happens across roms and phones alike.

First off, this is the first custom ROM I flashed to this phone. I have been on stock rooted roms before. I have a couple questions, sorry I’m going to read through the thread later, someone know what post the latest release is on? First, I miss my smart dialer, anyone have any recommendations? Full size caller ID would be cool if available. Next, I saw on the OP that 30 some hours were on it. I could get two days on the stock rooted rom, but get way less on this rom, (I have an extended battery too). I should be able to do 3 days on this. Next for the life of me, I cannot get HDMI mirroring to work. I plugged the cable in and do not see settings for it anywhere in the phone. I really only switched for custom backlight settings, as that is what was using my battery on the stock rom, and to try a non-sense rom out. I know the kernel has a lot to do with battery, and is a part of the install instructions, I did not do it at first, but now, I checked my phone and it says I have the latest one that I downloaded. Should I try to flash it anyways?

If anyone has any suggestions, LMK

He speaketh the truth. ;)

Here is why you keep losing your widgets: http://vaelek.com/index.php?/topic/...arktremors-a2sd/page__view__findpost__p__9780

Fyi, s2E is essentially the same as the native Android apps2sd, SDMove, APPS2SD Pro, or any other variation of a third party market app that moves your apps to the android.secure folder on the root of your sd card. You CAN NOT use any other form of an app that moves all, or part of your user apps to the android.secure folder in conjunction with, or at the same time you are using DTa2sd or you WILL LOSE all of the apps you moved with the third party app, and you WILL ALSO LOSE ALL OF YOUR WIDGETS UPON REBOOTING your phone because you are breaking the symbolic links created by DTa2sd in the /data/data folder in the /data partition. You can use a third party app that only moves less than half of each .apk, that is horribly inefficient, buggy at best, & can cause you to lose your apps & widgets on a reboot, or by wiping caches, or using cache wiping scripts...

OR

you can use DarkTremors a2sd that moves the ENTIRE .apk to the SD ext3 partition freeing up even more internal storage, that is seamless & silent in it's integration, and works flawlessly when properly setup for indefinite periods of time.

BUT YOU CANNOT USE BOTH METHODS OF MOVING YOUR USER APPS TO THE SD CARD AT THE SAME TIME!!! Period, end of story.

Wait, so the fix for the front cam in Tango is to set the FFC to VGA resolution in the stock camera app?
[EVO 4G Android Development] carhauler1969:
The original post or OP.

GoDialer & GoContacts.

Need more information, what kernel are you running? Under clocking? Under volting? System tweaks?

Again, this will depend on kernel selection, but the easiest way is to download HDMwIn (free) from the market.

Kernel selection, CPU clock settings, voltage settings, & system tweaks will all play a major role in achieving great battery life on any AOSP ROM, but is also much easier to tweak than a Sense ROM.

this is my last issue with this rom please help
[EVO 4G Android Development] carhauler1969:
What voltage settings are you using? Also, just fyi, for whatever reason, these phones when under clocked run much smoother with the maximum clock speed set to 499MHz, than any other setting up to the default setting of 998MHz. And with the Tiamat 3.3.7 on the smartass governor it will wake up just fine @ 128MHz & you don't need a screen off profile.

This has nothing to do with DTa2sd, i.e. if DTa2sd isn't functioning properly you'll be left with the default launcher & none of your user apps. Since you moved Dalvik cache to the sd, & then back again, which partition are you running it from now? /data (internal storage)? or /cache? And when you moved Dalvik did you use the "reset" commands, i.e. "a2sd cachesdreset", "a2sd cachepartreset" "a2sd nocachereset", etc?
