i don't know. if you have read the posts on this and the rpevious page you would have known that in nearly every of the last posts we try to find out what to put in there.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hi buddy, the ARHD problem seems to be with the near final unzipping and extracting of rom to imgs, i have spoked to Conap regarding this and seems to be the android os killing the app near the end of the task, maybe low memory killer etc, he is working on that issue m8 ;)

regarding rcmix3d, there are external scripts which are called during the install which boot manager doesnt support AT THE MOMENT ;), again he is working on this

[was kindly given some details late last night in regards to getting out of the boot loop and into a working rcmix3d, im currently still trying to accomplish this ;)]

i will let u know as soon as i can m8 :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
I have read them I was hoping to get the input from someone to get a ROM to boot thanks
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] a user:
well me too. some already posted it working but none posted their settings -.-

SmokeyMcBong is currently the only guy here trying to shed some light on this setting.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
I know I realize that I am trying to but SmokeyMcBong is doing a better jop :) thank you SmokeyMcBong
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] spookamiester:
Ok, so to help everybody out a little, here is word for word my response from init2winitapps

"the sdcard block for dhd is /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 also just to double check

device should be spade

system size should be 550 (which is mb but just enter the numbers)

data size should be 1150

cache size should be 296

Those numbers don't have to be exact but should be close to those"​

Hope it works out for everyone!

:D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] a user:
now this is interesting. i don't get anything similar when looking at the mount output for sdcard. -.-
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
THANK YOU BUDDY!!!!! :) :) [sorry for the caps, but was necessary lol ;)]

i have litterally just pm'd Conap with regards to this as was only part still unsure of lol

looking through the other thread they were talking about mmcblk, and block 179:etc was a bit confusing lol,

thanks again for that buddy ;):)

edit.... arrrrghg, ive ran out of thanks to give today, as soon as i have one available i will be straight on it ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] spookamiester:
Haha, no problem dude. I was just sharing their response so I can't take credit. They are a helpful bunch

@a user. I'm not sure what to tell you, I know from all your posts in Leedroid etc that you have a much more indepth knowledge of android than me but I just took their word for it and kinda accepted that it's working lol
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
now i have a new problem when i try too install a rom in force closes :/
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] a user:
well, i am trying it out now. i just changed that setting without reinstalling or creating the slot. but before trying to boot it i also install a second rom on sd (original cm7 nightly 143).

edit: i have a small idea of why the block shown by mount differs to their recomended settings.... but it doesn't matter as long as it works.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hiya m8, what rom r u trying to install m8?

after entering the details kindly suplied by spookamiester have u rebooted? maybe reboot to recovery and fix permissions, then reboot and try again?

if that fails try wiping boot manager data and reboot [titanium backup, or within manage aplications] ;)

hope this helps ya m8 :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Highlander11:
How sure are you about the sdcard block?

When I run "adb shell", followed by "mount" and look in the resulting list I get:

"/dev/block/vold/179:65 on /mnt/sdcard type vfat ... bla bla bla..."

I tend to think a user is on the right track with the 179:65, but maybe it must be the full first part of the string as provided above?? :confused:
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] napster113:
I changed all the settings rebooted but keep getting not enough room on memory card i've got 2g free its doing my head in lol
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
i am trying to install beatmod flyersense in slot 1..i will do what you have said and let you know thanks :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] cruzin_cruzing:
When I put in the command in the OP, I get:

system - 549.2 M

data - 1.1G

cache - 290.5M

When I put in mount the ratio thing says 179:65
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hiya m8, maybe there is some caching done on the sdcard and may need slightly more space, the total for all partitions as stated by spookamiester would total 1.996gb, have you tried lowering the data partition to maybe 800 - 900mb to shave some space m8?

i may be completely off but i spose its worth a try lol ;)

hope u get it sorted buddy :)

[ive lowered my data partition to 700mb as i really dont use that much lol]
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] napster113:
I'll give it a try thanks
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
that was my next rom to test lol :) , just installing miui ginger, once that is done i will be installing the amazing flyersense ;)

..edit.... looks like miui ginger install has gotten confused somewhere, looks like it was trying to boot some parts from phone rom aswell lol,

going to install previous working rom to sdcard
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
It still force closes :/ after doing all you told me to
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
thanks maybe it has somthing to do with the rom?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] a user:
damn, installed cm7 and it booted up succesfully

but i couldn't use boot manager to boot into another rom because it fails checking licens without market installed -.-

well, using recovery now to boot into phone rom.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Nevermind it was my fault i didnt check what put in sdblock slot i acidently put "/dec/..... stupid spell check :D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] cruzin_cruzing:
You have to sign into your Google account to pass license check.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Is there a way to share the apps i have installed with all roms? that would be sweet! installing flyersense now :D

it sure does take a while to install doesnt it :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
lol yea that pesky spell check can definatly be a pain in the behind lol,

is flyersense installing ok m8? got 3mins left to download lol then will be installing it ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
seems to be installing great right now its creating Data.img :D

I will let you know how well it works when its done mate:)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
brilliant stuff, thanks buddy :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
no problem :) how long does it take most roms to install? this is the first one ive tried so i wouldnt know :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Im curious about what exactly is the data image? is it going to have all the apps i have on this rom

And to change the phone rom i use cwm right?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
i think its all down to the size of the rom, and speed of sdcard. im currently still using the standard 8gb card which came with the phone lol,

creating the data partition usually takes a while for me if i leave it at 1.2gb lol.

just to be sure that it hasnt halted you can 'adb logcat' from a command prompt to see if boot manager is still doing what it does lol

[also if you want to cut down the time creating system.img, data.img and cache.img by just copying and pasting those from an existing rom installed using boot manager. ie....

locate /sdcard/BootManager/rom1/ [or whichever rom slot u currently have a rom installed to lol]

and copy system.img, data.img and cache.img and paste them in manually, this way boot manager doesnt have to create them all the time, only wipes them and installs ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Thanks for the info :)

Just copy and paste them from the actuall rom?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
as far as im aware the data.img is basicaly an img recreation of our internal storage for the DHD [TO ALL: PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG ;)]

some sense 3 roms have symlinked apps from system to data as system partition is smaller than data partition [i think! lol;), again please correct me if im wrong]

again if i have gotten anything confused or completely wrong please correct me and i will amend this post [mainly so i dont look that stupid lol ;)]
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
once you have a rom completely installed to SDcard using boot manager, say you have installed flyersense to ROM1....

then u can then copy those 3 .img files across from /sdcard/BootManager/rom1/ to /sdcard/BootManager/rom2, /sdcard/BootManager/rom3 and /sdcard/BootManager/rom4 ;)

it just saves a bit of time so boot manager doesnt have to create those big partitions everytime you want to install a rom ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
OH i see what you mean i get it thanks I will keep that in mind :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] napster113:
Finally got it working had delete some stuff off my card thank you all for your help
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Rom on sd

On first boot an sd rom will be pretty slow just set up the rom and reboot into it
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] spookamiester:
Just tried switching from LeeDrOiD 2.2.3 Froyo to MIUI 1.7.22.

Both work fine going from LeeDrOiD 3.2.1 Gingerbread but I got stuck at the HTC screen.

I'm wondering if it's struggling between Froyo sense and AOSP Gingerbread builds. It's not a massive problem since it's worked fine going from Gingerbread sense to Gingerbread AOSP and Gingerbread Sense to Froyo Sense, just means an extra boot between.

It's definitely all usable but thank f**k I made Nandroids everytime and adb still connects. Hopefully Iwill get to the bottom of this and they will have it all ironed out in the near future but it is still relatively risky to anybody that doesn't know what to do or prepare in advance

EDIT: Seems I can't get from Gingerbread sense to MIUI now. Seems like it's been corrupted at some point. Fingers crossed it's not the app. Praise to the gods of Nandroid
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
in flyersense i dont have root access did i do somthing wrong or can i not have root
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Will somebody help me please
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hiya m8, just booted flyersense and have the same prob, no root access. superuser is installed and just updated but just doesnt aknowledge any SU requests :confused:

tried fixing permissions using boot manager within flyersense but forgot that needs root access too :o lol

just rebooted and still no root ,

im a bit stumped with this one m8, im definatly no expert in the world of unix,linux and android so im probably out of my depth here m8,

sorry buddy :)

[is there a 'root' script thats initialized during install/boot or is it buried deeper in the rom than that?]

Edit.... just used 'root check' from market , and this tells me that "busybox 1.19.0 is installed and configured" but "root access is not properly configured", and "SU binary was not found in system declared path" , hope this helps to find a solution buddy :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Thanks i will jus tuse other roms till this gets fixed at least i know it not just me
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
What roms are reported to be fully working
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hiya m8, so far ive managed to succesfully boot....

NoSensi 1.0.4

AlienMind's CM 7.1v.1.81

HydrOG3nMOD V1.8

DeSense v1.4

FlyerSense [without root access tho :o]
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
no miui or cynogen mod 7....?

And will there be a possible fix for flyersense.....i spose i could use that rom ans the phone rom then others on sd?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
both 'AlienMind's CM 7.1v.1.81' and 'HydrOG3nMOD V1.8' are Cyanogen based, and found no probs so far with both of them ;)

ive only tried one MIUI rom so far m8, and that was DHD NDT MIUI GINGER V5.0, which seemed to get confused and tried booting parts of my phones rom lol

just downloading another 'flavor' of MIUI to test :)

in regards to flyersense, i downloaded the superuser app and binary seperatly and tried pushing but got same error from 'root check' "SU binary was not found in system declared path" [maybe symlink error???] , also tried updating the binary directly from within the superuser app, but couldnt install the update,. probably because of no initial root access?? im not sure where to go with that one personally, but i bet there are many talented folk here who can hopefully help with that one, as i have a very very limited knowledge of android lol ;)

i hope we find a way to get it working buddy :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
okay let me know how the new version of miui works mate...i mainly like this because i want one of each type of rom...one sense rom one aosp rom and one miui rom so if miui wors lemme know =)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
I think i have TO many post here so i will try to slow down after this...people say they have virtuous working on this but sice it has the multipale device script would it work on this?

Or should i just use rcmix 3d
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hiya mate, thats great news about the virtuous rom, [im not sure about the multible device script tho, havnt really any knowledge of this :)] thats one i havnt tried yet as its my daily phone rom lol ,

unfortunatly i ran into problems with RCmix3d, i was up till 3am trying to get that one booting lol, i was informed that they have external scripts for symlinking etc which at this time i dont think are supported by boot manager [but i think they are working on it/could be implemented in later releases of boot manager? ;)]

just tried booting MIUI 1.7.22 v.2: Freshly Squeezed Edition and unfortunatly that has done the same as the other MIUI i tried, it seems to try to boot parts from phone rom rather than the one on the sdcard, and will show a boot animation loop of the phones rom.

im looking at the logcat now, but to be honest im not really sure what im looking for lol. hoping something jumps out at me lol :) sorry m8
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Okay...( i dont know where to start) do you know if virtuous unity will work on the sd card(people who are using it havent said if it was on sd card or on phone)..if not i will install virtuous unity on my phone(its my daily rom as well(:) and then i will put virtuous doubleshot on my sd and when you do miui how do you get back from that rom(nand backup?)

and could i use a nand back up to put on my sd card and use that instead of a fresh rom so i can get my apps back?

EDIT: and maybe that would fix things like installing rcmix 3d if we can use a nand back up as a rom
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
i will test unity in a min for u buddy ;)

to get back to working phone rom....

reboot into recovery

go to flash zip,

locate /sdcard/BootManager/phoneRom/update.zip

flash that and reboot buddy,

that will change the pointer and make phone boot from the phones rom rather than the sd rom ;)

edit.... hmmmm thats a good question regarding the nand backup and copy to sd m8, im not sure about the process in which boot manager installs and the way the phone would normally install. you may well be on to something there tho m8 ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Wow thanks mate i wish i wouldve asked about that sooner (or read another time because im sure its in the op??) i had to go back to doubleshot rome because i forgot to make a nand back up

P.S. thanks for all of your help if you need me to test somthing for you so you dont waste your time i will be glad to
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
I will pm conap and find out ...that would be a really easy way to get around things
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
no problem buddy, im glad to help where i can ;)

by the looks of it , the nand copied to sdcard didnt work, it booted the phone's rom instead [maybe boot.img is different when boot manager creates it?]

but looking at the size of the img's created by a backup, they are only sized to data, ie data partition would be around 1.2gb using boot manager [so you can fill up with data] and with recovery backups they are alot smaller [filled with data and probably no way to add data to these, only remove etc?]

sorry buddy :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
installing unity as i type ;) will report back with findings m8 :)

i think the speed of the rom probably depends on the initial size of that rom, and the speed [class] of sdcard :)

i found that NoSensi 1.0.4 runs exeptionaly fast on sdcard tho m8 ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
O sweet thanks :)

I have to say i really like the keyboard on hydrogenmod btw :)

Thanks for clearing that up how is virtuous unity
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] a user:
hi,

i have installed and working NDT MIUI. i wanted to reboot to another rom (the phone one) so i used boot manager. i got the selection of installed roms and selected phone rom.

at this moment the app force closes. so the only way to reboot to another rom here seems to get into recovery and flash the right update.zip.

any solutions for this? or where can i submit a bug report?

How's unity, couldn't get it to boot at all?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:

if that doesnt work send dev. an email
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
i received a phone call half way through the install, which stopped the creation lol, just kicked it off again now :)

gotta pop out for half hour so will give an update when i get back home ;)

wont b long guys :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] TylerDurben:
WHooow that app is exacly what i was looking for :)

I wis i could reach the Developper to get an beta acc

Cannot wait to have a look to that Tool *smiles

So what about the apps , is it possible to share the apps with all roms?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
lol nice animation mate...im not to sure its possible to share the apps
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] TylerDurben:
yeah will be cool to have one app foolder for all app files ;)

I got miui working without doing anything at all...try installing it with out the imgs in the folder let bootmanager make them
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] a user:
well it force closes during setting permissions.

though using the bootmanager app and not the widget (i didn't observed first time that it was a widget) seems to work for booting into another rom.

i am also having cm7 now and boot manager allways reports an error of "missing permission" at start up. due to this it seems to not being able to wipe batterystats and probably other things. it fails with permission error.

but here fixing permissions works - i mean in runs through. but fixing the permissions didn't helped with the "missing permission" error.

seems boot manager still has plenty of bugs. anyhow, it works and it is one of the best features i came across. this and chainfire 3d are making me scream :D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] TylerDurben:
Hey ppl 5 minutes ago i found another app on marketplace that is working for samsung epic 4g

The dev put that part with pationizing into the apk, also he had patitionizing scripts on his thread.

excellent news buddy :) , just out of curiosity what rom r u currently running on ur phone when using boot manager to install roms to sd card mate?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:

did you see my miui posts?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] TylerDurben:
Here is a Screenshot of the tool i was talking about

Could maybe helpfull to make some steps easyer for the BootManager

Will be nice if someone can test and report about if those tools could work together :D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hiya m8, by the looks of it that app may work in the same way as this method ...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1173309. .

these methods use the same kernel for both roms,. and by the look of it it may also require your sdcard to be partitioned [rather than boot manager's method of having the '.img's' of a rom stored and just changing the boot pointer to boot from ie phone, rom1, rom2 etc ;)] i could very well be wrong though :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
I have 4 more min. to download unity how is it?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
sorry my friend i could not get it installed as it would not create the boot.img for some reason [im not too sure why lol]

with the MIUI rom u installed [great news by the way! :)] what rom is currently installed to your phone while you created and installed MIUI? ... just wondering if different roms installed on the phone [aosp/sense or froyo/GB etc] are giving different results when installing a rom to sdcard :) [i could be way off, but worth a look i spose lol]

Edit.... i think you may have been right about the multi device situation, Unity's structure is different and the boot.img is not in the root of the roms zip, but instead is within '/kernel/ace_vision' folder. ill have a play around and see if i can think of anything ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] TylerDurben:
nahhh what i was thinking about is using only the part of partionizing ,clone nand to sd and maybe the converting part for using the bootmanager

but idk if that works, i am waiting to be a betatester

I am using virtuous doubleshot on my phone and to install miui but i downloaded this one

Let bootmanager make the cache data and system.img files BUT you cant use the widget in miui...it fcs
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] trh1341:
Then could i copy and past? :)

but yeah i figured that would happen..if i cant copy and paste the boot image then i will install to my phone and put doubleshot on sd...
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
hiya m8, i think that app physicaly partitions your sdcard, like it would when u partition drives on the pc, splitting a physical drive up. unlike boot manager which doesnt partition the sdcard as such, it leaves your card intact but adds pointers for booting to specific parts of the single partitioned sdcard [if that makes sense, because i just read what i wrote and im confused lol, ;)]
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] SmokeyMcBong:
lol yea sorry m8 i tried copying the original boot.img but it didnt like it lol :)

, but i guess the one boot manager creates may well be slightly modified on the fly as the install progresses lol [i will have to clarify this at some point lol]
