If the only solution is to do a restore, the only backup I have was from an S-ON what issues will I face?
[Desire Android Development] dreamdealer:
First up I don't recomend u nandroid restore, hopefully you backed up ur previous ROM with titanium or my backup pro, if you have then I recomend a full wipe in recovery and flashing the previous version 0.4 when its up and running use titanium but only restore the app and data that are green. Ignore the red. Or full restore with my backup pro.
[Desire Android Development] t-c:
I think the problem is more to do with HBOOT, doesnt get passed the S-OFF screen so don't even think it's looking at the ROM at this point?

I'll give the downgrade a go and see if that resolves the boot issue.

My concern is that if I do recover then V0.4 will be the end of the road on this ROM(which I would hope not to be the case.

Do you know which AlphRev img is the closest to the D2EXT+?
[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
Ok, I see quite a few people are having problems with v0.4.1, I will work on 0.4.2 ;)

..the screen dosnt load past the koer alpharev boot screenn... please help me..
[Desire Android Development] immi79:
congrats on getting new shiny sensation damo ;)
[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
You need to open the .zip and find the .img

v0.4.1 is broken, use v0.4

Thanks :) I'm a bit dissapointed though, I've got one with dust under the screen, I miss my trackpad, loads of stuff is different from the official pictures and no perm root :rolleyes: also some apps are small on the screen because of the amazing resolution, all other new features are great though

and check under my name, recognised dev ;)
[Desire Android Development] Nyto75:
Congrats ! :)

Dust problem is known :( you can use warranty ^^
[Desire Android Development] t-c:
I tried to roll back to v0.4 with the same result, freezes at the S-OFF splash screen so unless I'm missing something(which is highly likely) is it more to do with the HBOOT img?

I have tried the downgrade(both yours & alphaRev) HBOOT verifies that it's state is Downgrade, flashed stock HBOOT verifies that it's state is AlphaRev then your D2EXT+ and HBOOT verifies that its D2EXT+

I then tried the previously working 0.4 and the phone freezes at S-OFF I then go through the above process this time with 0.4.1 and again gets stuck at S-OFF

Whilst you work on 0.4.2(grateful for your response) can I revert to an S-ON backup & what are the potential issues in proceeding with this course of action?

[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
as long as you use the right hboot, nothing ;)
[Desire Android Development] t-c:
So, if the backup was on stock HBOOT then I revert to alphaRev stock & do a restore?

This doesn't revert the S-OFF back to S-ON?
[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
Yes,

nothing will take you back to s-on except if you flash downgrader hboot and then flash a RUU

It says for good measure, if you look on the official thread by the maker of the tools - firerat, it doesn't say you have to wipe afterwards

and I'll change the instructions to say extract to the root of your SD card ;)

Hey

Noob question.

I messed a litlle bit my SD card so will it be OK if my SD card looks like this:

- FAT32

- 1GB EXT3

- unnalocated space

- LINUX SWAP 100 MB

- 350 MB EXT3

or should I reformay it to : FAT - EXT3 - EXT3
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Seriously the instructions clearly say "you need fat+ext+ext" so why would you put "unnalocated space then - LINUX SWAP 100 MB" in the middle!
[Desire Android Development] JDR0iD:
LOL. i thought mine was bad!! thats funny!!!

Damo, thanks mate, your a legend..... you 2 ziggy!! :D nice rom man!
[Desire Android Development] JDR0iD:
I cant stop laughing... that is absolutely comical!!!!
[Desire Android Development] aorifan:
i'd like to try v2.0.:D will stay with rcmix s for now.

[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Hmm a Dev with no capacity for time travel... how disappointing :p
[Desire Android Development] felek73:
If you are thinking that I formated my card in that way from the scratch then that is absolutelt comical ... I wpuld have to be drunk as a lord :)

Previously I had fat - ext3 1 GB - ext3 - 100 MB - linux swap - unaloccated space.

To meet the requriemnets I had to have second ext 3 as 1/3 first EXT3. To avoid backup of all 16 GB of my card I just remove 2nd EXT3 and created new one EXT - 350 MB , so now my card looks like I described it ..

Anyway , thanks for answer , I happy that I was able to make someone smile ;)
[Desire Android Development] aorifan:
lol,my typo,i mean v0.2:D
[Desire Android Development] puschkin:
Wipe again (including system and boot)

Does this mean format system and boot in recovery?

that's swype keyboard, you can found in market..

@damo have you tried if with autokiller memory setted to ULTIMATE if something goes better?
[Desire Android Development] Krendelrus:
obviously, because this ROM is using Kingdom RUU as a base, not the Sensation one (correct me if i'm wrong)

it's HTC keyboard guys ;)

go to settings -> keyboard -> touch input -> activate trace and there it is !
[Desire Android Development] faddys123:
its not swype keyboard its htc's own implementation of swype but my point is that keyboard in the video is better because no arrows are on it

would like to get this rom, right now I'm on RCMix V2.0. but does everything works fine? is it smooth? does it have Car Panel?
[Desire Android Development] live_0978:
@ *damo* (or whoever else can answer), does the 2nd Ext HAVE TO BE 1/3 of 1st Ext or can it be half the size? The reason I ask is that I'm using madmaxx82 4Ext recovery, it can create upto 2 Ext partitions and they will be perfectly aligned, the only problem is it makes them in 1/4Gb increments and my 1st Ext is 1024mb, I don't see the need in having a 1.5Gb then 0.5Gb partitions. So ideally, would 1024/512 work Ok since I don't have another way of making the 341mb partition?
[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
It will work ok, just not as well ;)

There was a bit on SD card partitioning on the XDA portal yesterday if you want to check it out

HTC Swyped from my Sensation using XDA Premium
[Desire Android Development] mambraxneol:
Damo, have you got an idea for my problem with the 0.4 version?
[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
How many ext partitions do you have?

And to confirm the pink bit now says alpharev D2EXT+

HTC Swyped from my Sensation using XDA Premium
[Desire Android Development] mambraxneol:
i have got 3 partitions :

1/fat32

2/ext 4 : 1.5go

3/ext 4 : 500go.
[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
i can actually say that i have no idea :(

there is a known problem with 0.4.1 but i know that 0.4 works as long as you have the right hboot and 2 exts...

probably stupid question but did you wipe before flashing the new hboot?
[Desire Android Development] mambraxneol:
No i have make the wipe after installing the hboot, may be the reason?
[Desire Android Development] valery.m:

open a cmd on pc, reboot your phone on fastboot, then type in cmd

fastboot flash hboot nameofhboot.img
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:

@HD2freaKK you are of course s-off?
[Desire Android Development] HD2freaKK:
Yes im S-OFF! Where i must put the hboot image on my pc?

"fastboot is not reconognized as a external or internal command,operable program or bath file."

What im doing wrong?

Help pls my phone is stucked on alpharev boot screen and i can t boot any rom!
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
So you have ADB installed? yes. Use the dos window to navigate to the folder where fastboot is located (probably android-sdk\tools) put .img file in the same folder run command

If you are still lost Google" How to install use ADB"
[Desire Android Development] *damo*:
Ok guys some good news :)

i know there hasnt been an update in ages but there will definitely be one in the next few days, I've given up with sensation libs as its too hard to test without a phone, but it does mean no flash over http :( you can always use skyfire...

yep, thats about it :p
[Desire Android Development] jullman:
It is a good news Damo :D

I have a question, it is possible to optimise the rom when the synchro or download is in progress ?

because when one of them is in progress, the phone is blocked

and the bug when the phone start, after the code pin (com.android.... Wait or Close)

I think your rom is the best, and it is domage to stop it :rolleyes:

it's normal, you don't have desire and for you is not easy but I cross my fingers
[Desire Android Development] mastersjef:

[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
You really need to help yourself just flashing a rom without reading and understanding the instructions is a total waste of time. This rom needs a custom hboot and 2 ext partitions

Look here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1016084

It will explain Gparted to partition your sd-card and there's a link to Android flasher which will change your hboot. Google MD5 for an answer to that one

If it worked on CDMA then it would be clearly stated in the first post
[Desire Android Development] Heisenberg:
The ROM flashing part is simple but there's a lot of preparations that need to be done first in order for it to work.

Read the link that Ziggy gave you, then read it again and again!

Each step of the process must be followed exactly!

If you need any more help pm me, I have many links to resources which might help

[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Not to sure what to say if your sd-card is partitioned correctly and correct hboot is installed.Perhaps try Clockwork mod also after flashing a new hboot sometimes using the format boot option in recovery helps think it's in "mounts and storage" menu in CWM

It doesn't use swap, i think you need kernel support for that. Just make sure ext patitions are sized as per 1st page

"you need fat+ext+ext where your 2nd ext is 1/3 of your first ext, e.g 768/256, 1024/341, it needs to be at least 768/256, I use 1.5gb/0.5gb"

To avoid it, before flashing the Hboot, make wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvik(in advanced) and after you can flash it, and so it will be good.
