Hey...

I've just followed the guide properly, but then my wildfire gets stuck on boot for quite a while you see...

also how long does the long boot take than normal?

that be enough to say I guess :)

p.s I hope my backup wildfire isn't bricked lol [ I only use my backup for testing before I put it on my real wildfire ]

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

Sorry, my buzz didn't get bricked just took longer than usual XD round 12 mins or so

cool guide man, thanks! Really appreciate this very much... almost thought I get my backup wildfire bricked lol

Thanks, again cool guide :good:
[Wildfire Android Development] Stone. Cold:
Can anyone quickly reply to this post?

First of all

How to install ROM & GApps with the MTD partition? kinda confused [not such an expert at this stuff yet :/ ]

2nd:

what's the best MTD partition for our buzz?

any suggestions, kinda a newbie to the MTD [but still learning :) ]

Also I mainly need to know how to basically flash a new ROM & GApps with the partition, because everytime I reflash a new ROM it just goes back to recovery when I follow each step, need help guys... Thanks whoever does help me :) :good:
[Wildfire Android Development] Fasullo:
I'm using Ultrabeam v5 with custom mtd partition.

Flash cwm 4.0.1.4

Reboot to cwm

Flash mtd.recovery file

REBOOT RECOVERY FROM ADVANCED

flash rom

Flash gapps

Flash mtd.boot

Reboot...

Size of mtd partitons depends on size of the rom you're using.

With UB I use mtd 165 15
[Wildfire Android Development] Stone. Cold:
Yay finally someone replied, thanks man!

also you dealing with any issues? with the aroma, many people are but if your not then that's cool to know :)

glad to see one of my users help me out :) thanks mate! :good:

going to thank you later, stupid button aint no working XD

thanks anyway :)

---------- Post added at 03:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 AM ----------

Also when I've created a new MTD partition, do I have to place them in the sd-card or inside bravo-boot? and where?

also what shall I use the latest version of bravo boot 1.5.8?

or regular, old?

thanks man! :good:
[Wildfire Android Development] Fasullo:
I use the old files, they work well. The new ones gave me problem.

Just put the mtd files in sd card, edit the txt file with 165 15 and put it un sd card too.

Do the steps above and you're done...

Mtd partitions just modify the size of internal memory, no use of sd card partitions like with ext scripts...
[Wildfire Android Development] Stone. Cold:
Cool to know, so I just have to put the txt file in the sd card also the only thing i'm confused with is this

Do I have to rename to mtdpartmap.txt or just mtdpartmap without txt?
[Wildfire Android Development] Fasullo:
The file MUST be named mtdpartmap.txt or it will not work.

It has to be in sd card root and it should contain only the line:

mtd 165 15
[Wildfire Android Development] Stone. Cold:
Oh ok cool, also after it boots how much internal memory will I get?

just got rid of the MTD partitions, but now what your saying is making much sense so ty, and I will try to redo this

Just flashed a new RUU and reverted back to my ROM :)

Simples xD
[Wildfire Android Development] Fasullo:
With those settings Titaniumbackup says that my system rom is 173 mb, 3.57 mb free

and my internal mem 298 mb, with 87.3 mb still available.

I have installed all my usual apps and I still have a lot of free space...
[Wildfire Android Development] Stone. Cold:
Hmm so you have 298mb in internal memory?

Cool to know, i'll retry this after i've made my UltraBeam GB V6
[Wildfire Android Development] padvou:
Could someone please help me?

This is what I did:

Rebooted to recovery

Cleared cache, data, system

Factory reset

Flashed the bravo-recovery-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip

Cleared cache, data, system

Flashed the ROM

Advanced - reboot to recovery

Flashed the bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip

Rebooted normally.

However I'm stuck at the HTC logo.
[Wildfire Android Development] Wasimk32:
flash bravo recovery, then reboot recovery. Then flash rom ,flash bravo boot and reboot normally.
[Wildfire Android Development] optimusodd:
I am a bit confused.Can somebody tell what do I need to do to resize mtd partition setings ?

My current setting is mtd 110 15 and I want to change it to mtd 100 15

Just changing the values in mtd.txt and the following the original process will do the job ?

Thanks
[Wildfire Android Development] Stone. Cold:
So you're using cm7.2 stable right?

use mtd 150 25 <----- leaves 300mb in internal [double memory]

also just edit the text inside ans click save after you've made the new .txt file ;)

p.s also use cronmod int2ext+ for any internal size as you wish with the partitioned sd card, that's if you have :)
[Wildfire Android Development] eventcom:
150 10 here. From what I know you'd need the cache partition on CM only for the recovery as CM uses cache where it finds it. 15 should be a super safe value, I've had 5 for a very long time...

My ROM (LeWa) is smaller than 7.2 stable - but I changed a few things and wanted to stay safe so I've upped my recent 5 to 10 now.

Regarding SD-EXT I've become a big fan of Mounts2SD and wrote a post about that just now :D

Just a different flavour - no criticism - but I'm really happy with my fresh setup now so I thought I should share.
[Wildfire Android Development] optimusodd:
Uhm thanks for replying but I guess you didn't get me bro.

Let me make things clearer.I already have Custom MTD Partition (mtd 110 15)

After installing CM I removed some apps using Titanium Backup following Barebones guide.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Barebones

To gain some more space I removed wallpapers,ringtones and some other apps which could be replaced by apps from playstore.

So right now I have managed to shrink the CM to 92 MB.So the extre space I have got is 110-92=18 MB.Now what I want to do is to re-allocate this extra space(18 Mb) to the /data partition.

So the question is,would changing the values ( mtd 92 15) in mtdpartmap.txt and then following Step 2 of the guide do the job ?

AND

Do I also need to reflash current recovery before Step 2 as I think I have read somewhere and eventcom has also raised concern that recovery makes an image of the partitions and old settings are expected at the time of Nandroid Restore(i.e the settings used at the time of Nandroid Backup).:confused:

I am already using link2sd and ext3 as sd-ext.

Thanks

---------- Post added at 12:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

You can gain more space by removing unwanted apps using Titanium Backup.

Though you are not using CM,go through http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Barebones before proceeding.Check CM7 App list in the bottom and you will have an idea about things.

If you want even more space you can remove ringtones,alarms,notifications from /system/media/audio you can also remove custom wallpapers.

Hope this helps:good:
[Wildfire Android Development] eventcom:
First of all, if you want a ROM with CM7 smaller than 90MB I really think you should give LeWa a shot (my sig) - v15 is with latest 7.2 nightly (v14 = stable) v15 is 86MB :D (could be stripped even further - my personal one is around 88 but I've thrown out a lot of stuff and put in a few things).

I've made a summary of my first experiences with LeWa (coming from CM7) a while ago.

There's also very useful information about the removable stuff of CM7 in the LeWa thread (starting from post #260 if you have different forum settings).

Regarding your measures I'd just suggest to leave some buffer for the system as you also need to update system apps from time to time... ;)(there's also a suggestion in the LeWa thread but I have no time to search atm...)

No, you don't need to reflash recovery - that wouldn't make any difference (if I'm not totally mistaken). Regarding the matching of images with partitions I'm not absolutely sure but I would go with formatting the partition and I believe that would do.
[Wildfire Android Development] optimusodd:
Wow!That sounds cool :D Thanks for sharing that valuable information.Very useful indeed.I am not in experimental mode right now but I will definitely give that a try later.:) I am a bit hesitant in trying new ROM's at this moment coz I don't want to go through all that headache of losing App data,App settings etc,running different scripts/patches and start everything from scratch.It's very painful and time consuming.How do you take care of all these things ? Using Titanium Backup or extracting them from backup using Nandroid Manager ?In your opinion what's the most feasible way ?:confused:

Hmmm so I just change the values ( mtd 95 15) in mtdpartmap.txt and follow Step 2,right ?

I think 95 MB should be enough.Currently system is using 91.70 MB and I don't think I am gonna push anything into it .
[Wildfire Android Development] eventcom:
:eek: be careful & don't get over-excited... I'll just quote the OP:

Well, CM7 last nightly system ROM is 73.55 MB (even slightly smaller than the stable with 72.77 MB) - but... that's the file size of the ROM, not the space it'll actually need in the system partition. First that ROM is compressed - the stable would make 106 MB decompressed - plus GApps. The old GApps you could/should use aren't that big, just 9.5 MB decompressed - but that's not what you'll end up with because of all the blinky shiny new Google stuff (Google Play Services, Hangouts etc.) - you can easily count with 18-20 MB (and you should as there might be updates which also could touch the system).

So if you would take the stable you could count up to around 125 MB. But regarding the system you really should leave some flexibility - not those values like for Sense or CM9, of course, but everything below 140 would be truely hazardous... even with a barebone install.

My lowest MTD setup was 145 5 which worked - but when I did flash LeWa I slightly raised it up to 150 5 and last week when I flashed the v15 I've also raised the cache, so that I'm now at 150 10

The cache shouldn't be necessary at all, AFAIR it's buried in this thread here, because CM manages its cache itself and doesn't need a special partition - but from what I can remember CWM makes problems sometimes if it doesn't get at least 5 MB in a cache partition - and I've learned to take "at least" for the deepest bottom line with flashing LOL.

So - although I have absolutely no time - I thought I should explain that in more detail.

Yup I know what you're talking about. When I tried LeWa the first time I just flashed it over my CM7 nightly (or RC, don't remember exactly...) which worked without bigger problems. But on the other hand I like it to stay clean (because flashing over might really lead into unknown trouble...).

Since LeWa is CM7 based it shouldn't be too hard to switch (at least if you even already experimented with barebones and such - you kinda get used to it fast). LeWa final is around 88 MB including GApps (but not completely upgraded - so it will become a bit more in system).

My personal setup is around 135-140 MB in size (but I don't have to care as I have all user apps and dalvik-cache on a 1GB ext partition by Mounts2SD - which I could really recommend because of the very easy setup (Market app) and in my opinion very professional recovery setup if you flash a new ROM and such (you just flash a zip after flashing the ROM//doing the wipe or whatever and it will be completely restored.

see above - I never found a perfect solution and have been fiddling and searching for good solutions like you. Looks like it has become a lot easier with Mounts2SD and very nice backup solutions like Online Nandroid Backup (GUI/apk for the Online Nandroid Script) and Nandroid Manager (same dev) - and I'm currently also playing with Droid Manager for Windows :cool:

cm 9 ?

this metod work with cm9 ics rom?:confused:
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Are you sure you flashed the boot zip file after flashing the ROM zip file? There shouldn't be any reboots in between the entire procedure. I re-did the whole thing listed in the first post after I flashed Clockworkmod 5 and it still worked without any issues.

Sorry, didn't get you there. My mtdpartmap.txt has the values 145, 10, i.e. 145MB system partition and 10MB cache.

@ All - If you are experiencing issues, please try once more time after uninstalling all Apps2SD Scripts and stuff. (Specifically uninstall after going to Terminal Emulator and add the commands there)
[Wildfire Android Development] vimjam:
nvm

solved it :)
[Wildfire Android Development] rohillamanish:
SOLVED

Finally solved my problem. I had been making a stupid mistake. I named the text file as "mtdpartmap.txt" and changing it to "mtdpartmap" solved the issue. Working fine now. I have set the values to 145 10 and everything seems to be working fine. Titanium backup shows that I have around 325 mb internal memory. A very big thanks to 3xeno for constantly trying to help. :)
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Oh, who would have thought about that. Well, I use the option "show extensions for known file types" on my PC, which is probably why I didn't think twice while putting up the guide.

Very glad you sorted it out. I have updated the first post accordingly. :)
[Wildfire Android Development] t0mas_:
hm, im pretty sure it worked for me quite nicely with the .txt extension...
[Wildfire Android Development] Scratch0805:
Just wondering, I had my settings at 160 10 and tried downloading something from the market which was 16mb, I got an error saying no space left or something like that and it wouldn't download.

I've changed my settings to 200 50 now and it downloaded first time, so my question is.....

Is that because my cache size was only 10mb?

As if im not mistaken, when you download from the market the .APK goes to /cache before being installed.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
True. I assumed CM7 had the 06mountDL script pre-installed, and I guess this isn't the case. I will try manually adding and will report back later.

Just for info, mountDL script is a script which binds your /cache partition to the /data partition (Specifically, a folder called /downloads in /data). So, technically, by using this script, you can even get away with using a 5MB /cache and still download large sized apps.

EDIT: The script is indeed already located under /system/etc/init.d (In CM7) , I wonder why it isn't working. :/ Will look into it a bit more.
[Wildfire Android Development] Scratch0805:
Hmmmm its not there that's probably why its not working, any idea where I càn get it?

Edit: just found it in cm177.zip, don't know why it wasn't installed though.

Can anyone tell me the permissions I need to set please.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It should be rwxr-x---
[Wildfire Android Development] Scratch0805:
Thank you, that's what I thought just wanted to check, I'll change my cache size back tommorow to see if its fixed.
[Wildfire Android Development] jblyth:
It worked beautifully for me! I even managed to use the wrong NADROID backup file at first, so I just re-did it the correct one and it worked very well.

The only issue with the instructions was for the wiping of the cache etc. Those functions were in the Mounting menu, and not as described.....

Many thanks for this great solution!
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Thank you. :) I'll make the needed changes shortly. (I wrote that from my memory, guess I was wrong. :p)
[Wildfire Android Development] Scratch0805:
Just for the record I've been lowering the size of my system and cache each time I've run this to see if any problems popped up.

I'm now running at 150 10, which gives me 20mb spare in my system partition just in case I push anything to the /system partition, no problems with this setup at all.

Earlier in this thread you mentioned been able to run /cache at 5mb. So I thought I'd give it a shot, didn't have any problems during normal phone use but when rebooting into recovery I got a no space left on phone message from the /cache partition, which stopped me from being able to use the auto features such as flashing a zip or backing up through rom manager because clockwork couldn't write a log in the /cache.

So I would recommend no one goes below 10mb on the cache partition.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Thanks for your test. BTW, one more thing: Have you tried downloading a file >10MB with a 10MB cache? Does it work, or does the insufficient space message crop up? (I am unable to test this since I will go over my daily quota if I download a 15-18MB file :p)
[Wildfire Android Development] Scratch0805:
Yes as long as 06mountdl is in the init.d folder it seems to work fine, I just double checked by downloading third blade which is 49mb.
[Wildfire Android Development] thestory101:
I'm very confusing about above step.

current i use stock rom with S-off.

should I flash CM7 first then

- flash recovery

- flash boot

they have a lot of steps or flsh cm7 later ?

hope u guy could light me out?
[Wildfire Android Development] Scratch0805:
Use these steps

Wipe system data and cache from the mounts and storage option.

Flash bravo recovery.

Reboot recovery from advanced settings.

Flash your cm7 zip, or a nandroid backup.

Flash bravo boot.

Reboot.

i didnt found this file on any of my system folder..even in system/etc/init.d

:/ how to solve this issue?

and i currently on cm7 #208 and planning to flash Cm7 #215..

what step should i do? should i do this :-

Wipe system data and cache from the mounts and storage option.

Flash bravo recovery.

Reboot recovery from advanced settings.

Flash your cm7 zip #215

Flash bravo boot.

Reboot.

ty advanced..sorry coz im still new for this things :/ :(
[Wildfire Android Development] Slymobi:
Create a .txt named mtdpartmap.txt using notepad or whatever you want. In this you should only enter 2 values eg. 145 10 then save to sdcsrd. Then in recovery perform steps,wipe data and cache, flash bravo recovery,reboot recovery,install rom/ nandroid backup,flash bravo boot,rrboot. Should see increased memory.
[Wildfire Android Development] Hanakie:
ty for the reply bro.. i done this..but when i trying to download Third blade from market it say "not enough space" then i check that 06mouth.dl on system/init.d its not there..also i check on system/etc/init.d still not there.. i do read this

now i wonder can i manually added this script on system/etc/init.d folder? if yeah how to do it?
[Wildfire Android Development] zexcrazy:
@Hanaki try with new scripts, they are at first post. Just delete file 06BindCache from /system/etc/init.d and then reboot. It should be ok Im using it for few months.
[Wildfire Android Development] Hanakie:
so means i need to wipe everything again then do it from the start? like wipe cache system data and all?
[Wildfire Android Development] zexcrazy:
Yes, do it all over again. But dont forget to make mtdpartmap.txt file on yor SD Card and enter values you want. After all is done and sistem is booted, use Root Explorer to delete file that i have mentioned or use ADB shell. Which you prefer and reboot again. than you should be able to download anything from market.

i done with that new MTD new files...but still didnt find that 06BindCache on /system/etc/init.d

06mountdl doesn't get flashed for some reason. However it is in the CM zip file, use root explorer to extract it and copy it to init.d
