ohk a quick check

if something is mounted on /data/sdext2 then link2sd thinks it has found the second partition

what i did was

1) created a temporary img file 100 MB

2) did a loopmount of img file on /data/sdext2 folder

3) link2sd working.

(I know i am lazy i don't want to format my card just wanted to help all as much as i can.)

now this was test so what we are missing here

1) we need a way to automatically mount a pertition on /data/sdext2

2) we will still need 3 partition on sdcard as my last experiment was to check the same and we if want to use ext2 we need

vfat-ext2-vfat to the minimum.

last being your sdcard

first being your recovery sdcard

and ext2 partition used by link2sd

3) tried hw_config.sh as suggested by DooMLorD

even checked /system/etc/init.d/

they all seem to be executing well before sdcard gets mounted or not at all.

so this is where i am stuck and right now out of time need to focus on other tasks.

hope someone can find a way around to this.

NOTE : EWJET ROM are 2.1 rom if i am not wrong. 2.1 roms do support link2sd as of now its basically the problem of 2.2 roms.

I will try your method with the three partition, but I have a question, how to make the third partition detected in windows for copying all my datas in it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guantanamo:
The method with three partitions don't work too. I'm really confused now.

Windows won't detect extended partitions... only NTFS and FAT*.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guantanamo:
Yes I know, but in the case of the three partitions, there are 2 partitions in FAT, and one of them can't be detected by windows, that's what I'm asking about, because I wanna to restore all my datas in the second one. If there is a trick to do, it will be good ;)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DooMLoRD:
ok i am slightly confused...

what is the advantage of using link2sd in a 2.2+ rom?

i can understand its use for 2.1 rom, as 2.1 doesnt have native app2sd, but then why use it for 2.2+ roms?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colossus:
Ok then just delete your partitions and restore your data, taking into account that you have copied it to your pc first, why is this becoming such a big issue for you, i do not understand???
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guantanamo:
App2sd doesn't support all applications and games, and can't move all datas of an application, and when we use a lot of them (I mean applications and games) like me, we have the phone storage quickly filled. Link2sd move almost all datas of an application or game, and save our phone storage. It's an app that I can suggest to everyone around here.

PS : I suggest you to read the beginnig of first post in the thread below, it explain much more why we prefere link2sd and not app2sd. It explain too many other things about detecting problem and many many more. Maybe you will find something useful for you too.

[Defy General] seefu:
Thanks mate! Greatly appreciated. Time to get my phone sent off for blue-tick upgrade and wanted to flash stock ROM just in case.
[Defy General] senergy:
What's the blue tick upgrade do?
[Defy General] lobie81:
Telstra Moto Defy's were originally marketed as Blue Tick compliant handsets which means Telstra's testing has shown that they offer superior coverage in rural areas. Basically, between the time Telstra did this testing and graded the phone as blue tick, and the time the phone actually went on sale, Moto changed the hardware spec of the phone slightly. This hardware change resulted in the Defy falling just below Blue Tick standards. Telstra was initially unaware of the hardware change and continued to market Defy as a blue tick handset. Telstra then discovered the issue and basically offered customers who had purchased a Defy up to that time to send their phone back to Motorola to have their hardware changed back to that original spec that was blue tick complaint.

So the Blue Tick upgrade improves the coverage of the Defy slightly.

Clear as mud?
[Defy General] The Land of Smeg:
Yes, correct.

In addition to this I want to add that I spoke to Motorola to get my Blue Tick upgrade, the rep told me that there is a misconception that the Blue Tick issue can be corrected with the 2.2 update, which is NOT true, as it is a Hardware issue.

He also told me that the hardware component that needs replacing to fix this issue, is also the same component responsible for the Speaker issue (which could potentially affect all Defy's sooner or later if does not have the hardware fix). So by getting the Blue Tick upgrade you are killing two birds with one stone to get better reception and prevent the Speaker issue.
[Defy General] Nicholox:
Will this work on the Telstra Atrix?

I returned my defy because of severe screen locking and other strange behavior (worse after blue tick upgrade and froyo update) but the reception on the blue tick atrix is consistently 10 to 20dBm worse than the defy was....any one else had that?
[Defy General] tom11:
thanks mate will come in handy. do you know if its possible to downgrade from 2.3.4 to this rom? cheers
[Defy General] jh20:
should be included here:

http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy

i only saw australia optus 2.2.2 but not telstra :)
[Defy General] The Land of Smeg:
No

It you flashed using a full SBF rather than a Fixed SBF+nandroid, then I don't think that it is not possible to go fully back to stock at the moment. You will need to wait until Telstra have an official 2.3.4 ROM for the Defy (if ever) or the Bootloader is unlocked.

I can't find any contact details to get this list updated.
[Defy General] xav_crack:
I will be able to downgrade?

Hi! I have my Defy with the original ROM that comes with it (34.4.709.MB525.Movistar.en.01 - 3.4.2-107_JDNL-9) and it come with Froyo 2.2.1, I have made a Nandroid backup, and now, I want to flash my phone with this Froyo 2.2.2 ROM, but I have read that if I install non-fixed ROM's (like this one) I DON'T WILL BE ABLE TO DOWNGRADE AGAIN.

So, my question is: If I flash my Defy with this ROM (Froyo 2.2.2), I'll be able to downgrade to Froyo 2.2.1 without troubles? (for warranty purposes).

Thank you so much for reply!

And sorry if I have grammatical errors, my native language is Spanish. Bye!

The sbf here is for a Defy, not the Defy+ (MB526), it will not work with the Defy+.

You will need to find a sbf for Defy+ and flash that. Not sure what is around, last time I looked many of the links where down, many of the euro or asian ones should work.

AFAIK there is no Telstra AU Defy+ sbf available.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcraptor82:
Okay, so this might be like beating a dead horse, but yet I haven't gotten any responses for this issue. I use WiFi alot, and at work I really need it since my phone keeps switching between ATT & T-Mobile towers. Damn cell phone companies, 2011 and coverage still sucks! Anyhow I have to use WiFi alot at work and my phone keeps doing something stupid! It will connect to the wireless just fine, but keeping it connected is the issue! Stupid thing keeps dropping connection and then reconnecting. I don't know if it is because of the carrier switch or if my router is a piece of junk. My laptop seems fine on the wireless so I think that is fine. I am running [ROM][07/04/11] Virtuous Unity Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid [1.27.0] and everything seems fine on it! So maybe a setting in the phone, or I just have crap WiFi at work? I am literally sitting beside the dang router while this issue persists. I can even go into the Settings portion of the phone and watch the WiFi constantly say "Connected to NETGEAR_2" then "Scanning" then "Obtaining IP Address" over and over, WTF? Please someone, anyone, have issues with this on their MyTouch 4g before? My setup at work has two WNR2000v3 NetGear routers that are wireless bridge so the front computers can connect to the internet. I was connecting to the back router but the signal sucked so I switched and setup the front router to give me another signal. So my phone has full strenth on signal, but yet again it drops and picks up again and makes that notification sound when it does so. That sound maybe the phone roaming, I do have that feature on. But anyhow, any info would be great, just someone please give me an idea here!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
Someone asked if it was possible to flash ClockworkMod Recovery through hboot instead of using RomManager. The answer...yes.

Primary reason something of this nature may be useful, as I see it, is if your recovery is damaged, your ROM is bootlooping, and you don't want to use or have access to ADB.

In that case you would:

remove your sdcard from your phone

place the zip on the root of the sdcard (using an adapter or another phone) and make sure it is named the appropriate "PG05IMG.zip"

place the sdcard back in your phone

boot to bootloader as if you're installing a radio (power+VolDown from powerOff). It will then find the zip, recognize it as recovery and ask if you want to install (if it does not prompt then select "Bootloader" from hboot).

Follow the instructions and after it finishes flashing pull your battery to power off (since the ROM will be bootlooping and hboot will constantly find the zip)

Now remove the sdcard and delete the zip (via adapter or other phone) like you did to put it on the sdcard, then place the card back in the phone.

Boot back to bootloader (Pwr+VolDwn)

Select "Recovery" and use CWR to wipe data/cache, flash a new rom, restore, or whatever you wish.

Obviously not the only reason since some people prefer this method over RM but clearly in that case the whole sdcard switching mess is unnecessary. Just do steps 2 and 4 and reboot when prompted like you do with radios.

Remember to remove any PGO5IMG.zip from your sdcard when done.

If this isn't useful to you, so be it. I just figured I'd throw this out there. Maybe it will help someone.

I will keep this updated as new versions come out for those few that find it useful.

**Credit to Koush and jcase**

All I did was decide to throw them in a zip that was useful in some situations for panicking users.

Here is your package with the 4.0.0.5 Modded Recovery ready to flash in HBOOT.

JCASE created the Recovery, so him the love for it. I all I have done is use it. LOL It gives you the option under "advanced" to "reboot bootloader". So you can install the ROM, then simply boot into boot loader to flash the radio.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
In your case it would probably be easier to just use flash_image from terminal on the phone (i.e. flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img) assuming your current rom has it (if not just search and download it) or you have RM installed. The main case I saw this being useful was if you didn't have or want to use ADB and your ROM was unusable (e.g. bootlooping). I may add Jcase's modded recovery to the OP as well since it seems useful/wanted by some.

it is that easy,i have done this,and i have also removed the hboot and stock recovery from PG05IMG RUUs so that i could flash without destroying recovery and my eng bootloader.

thanks for putting it together and offering the download, it has many uses, as people will see. the biggest one allready having been mentioned,if something screws up your OS and recovery,its easy to get it back.

did you make up your own android info file? or what did you take it from?

Thanks for this. Just flashed 4.0.0.5 after being afraid/too lazy to do it through ADB (which is also a pain because I have it on my Windows partition whereas I regularly use Mac).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
Figures. It was too simple of a concept not to have been done but I didn't see anyone that had done it in Tbolt. I also hadn't seen anyone mention it was in the custom firmware either and I didn't have time to check this morning before I left for work. I guess I can pull that part out of the OP since you say it's already in there.

Exactly my reasoning. I've seen to many people unaware of what to do in that situation :p

I checked a few from the firmware and radios and they all looked the same so I just pulled one of those.

First HTC android phone I've owned but as I said, makes sense it would have been done a long time ago for other HTC phones.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] obeygiant:
Hey get out of here, you've got candy to make! I keeeed I keeeed! Great work on the recovery guys, VERY useful!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] avlfive:
Yup. Been using it since it's release. Restored many backups with absolutely no issues.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] scotty1223:
id be willing to bet most people dont know,lol.they prolly just blindly downloAd rom manager and flash it. i checked to see if it was there,after seeing this as one of the last statements in the root post: Reboot your phone. You should now have full root permissions, an engineering kernel and recovery.

its one of the things i really love about htc. i got used to installing recoverys,splash screens,etc. on my incredible,then started experimenting with img files on my eris,and discovered it was quite possible to simply move the images around :D kinda neat if you want to try a leaked ruu but dont want to wait for someone to post a CWM flashable roms. just pull out the hboot and stock recovery and flash away :)

it was quite common to manipulate things in hboot on the inc,but never mentioned in the eris forum,where most of the gurus frowned upon the s-off bootloader.kind of a shame... more bricked eris's prolly could have been revived after the clockwork fiasco if s-off was part of the common root process.

thanx for the android info info. when i make them up,it doesnt seem to matter which one i use. i dont think it even checks the text inside,i think you just need a text document titled "android info" lol
