[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lono9885:
Hi Guys,

I wonder if you can help as this is now driving me crazy.

I have my HD2 running NAND MDJs Gingerbread Cyanogan mod 7. Its been great but the problem I have is that on moving games to the SD card they never then run again constantly force closing. I know you are aware of this problem and am aware the solution would be an ext partition.

I 'believe' the device is rooted but am not 100% sure btu when i try to run z4root it sticks at the 'attempting to apply root' phase and never gets any further.

So I want to create an ext partition preferably a nice large one 1GB perhaps BUT the MAJOR issue here is that my USB port is dead so I have to use an external battery charger this means I can't reflash and start again I am stuck now with this rom which is fine cos I'm giving the phone to my gf, but she will want to play games.

Please help....sorry for asking a fairly newb question. I need a simple explanation of the steps I can use to fix this.

Cheers

Adam

have u try rom manager to push the fix permission

it worked for me
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lono9885:
Yes I have tried fix permission it did nothing

Can someone tell me.how to do an ext without USB access. I.have a card reader to transfer stuff onto the SD. So can do things.that way.

Cheers

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lono9885:
does anyone have an idea on this...as it's driving me insane

How to make ext partition around 1 gig in size with no USB to PC functionality?

please

Cheers

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
From CWM.

Just reboot your phone into recovery, select Advanced > Partition SD Card .

Good luck, Adam.

Which is better?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkrauser2:
Both were AWESOME!

But,

FroyoBread = CM6

GingerDX = CM7

CM6 VS CM7 = CM7 Wins

But,

CM7 is still under development.

CM6 is complete.

So,

For ME, For NOW, FroyoBread.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michal1994:
In my opinion GingerDX is better, because it has better performance than Froyobread
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K3lthuzad:
Until the sensitivity issues in GingerDX are solved, I'll be sticking with Froyobread. I need to be able to type or else I feel like throwing my phone at a wall.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithunter:
froyobread is better but one things camera quality is not so good on it

so i insist to use GDX

some one cane port cameraserive.so (lib) file to froyobread ?

i m waiting for this then i will stick to fb :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Princelierocks:
Froyobread is better for use, i haven't tested GingerDx but have a fair idea that it is better than Froyobread, But till then Froyobread is the king rom for me, I love froyobread.:)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cola286:
Froyobread in my case. Most stable rom ever. I've tested GingerDx and all it caused me was headaches, but that may just be me. Like someone mentioned Froyobread (CM6) complete and therefore stable, and GingerDx (CM7 - underdevelopment). So currently I'm sticking with Froyobread :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shitlord68:
Gingerdx for so many reasons...
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codfreak:
Yes, and the accelerometer bug is already solved, search for the fix.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iam8av:
In GDX i have battery drain problem.Wifi,accelerometer have fixes...but battery not.From this point of view, froyobread is better in my oppinion.If i could stop battery drain i would use GDX.It's something strange:) We are using same hardware and some people have,some not having this problem.Why?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rav3n_pl:
GDX up to v12. Then are too many FCs and bugs.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] puya2010:
froyobread is better,bcoz doesnt have battery drain problem.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iam8av:
Strange.I don't have battery drain anymore.I installed froyobread v23b over gingerdx V 14(Full wipe-install froyobread-full wipe),use my phone for 2 days whitout any problems.After that i installed GDX v16+fixes .

Full wipe-install gdx-full wipe and the problem dissapear.

I think installing froyo was helping me alot :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E1730812:
GingerDX still under develop. Froyobread already final.

But when i try froyobread, my device always auto reboot. i dont know why.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GAME ON:
Have u done a full wipe?

AKU SENT POST NI GUNE W8 AKU. xD
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iam8av:

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shafixx:
already testing both of it and from benchmark result, froyobread is slightly better
[Optimus One, P500, V General] optimus.prime:
hello guys, im kinda new to android things, hope you give warm hugs to me :D

well, i have question on my mind,

if i uninstall the system application like facebook or twitter, etc, and one day decide to restore with factory data reset, will it come up again?

or i have to backup the system with some sort kind of way?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] royal.tarun:
Are you on stock rom or custom ROM.

IF you are on stock rom then you cannot uninstall stock apps.

If you uninstall them somehow then also factory/data reset wont bring them back.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] optimus.prime:
well, im using stock rom (if u mean its factory rom).

my phone is still 'virgin'.

so, if uninstall, then factory reset wont bring it back? too bad..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
Download the app called 'AppSaver' from the market. It backs up the .apk files of all the apps on your phone and stores them on the SD card. So whatever you do with the phone, the .apks are always there on the SD card and you can install all the apps again, without downloading them from the market.

P.S. the app takes backup of only the .apk and not the data. Eg: If you back up Angry birds, it just backs up the .apk and the levels/scores you achieved would not be backed up.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] royal.tarun:
Tanks.

Didn't knew about app saver.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] royal.tarun:
How are you planning to uninstall the stock apps.

I don't think its ppssible
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetnsour:
you can be rooted and still be using the stock rom. in that case, just install titanium backup or root uninstaller, both of which give you the option to uninstall stock apps
[TouchPad General] ace9988:
ok i've done everything apart from muffle system logging and max blocker (both fail to install for some reason =S ) , BUT in Govnah the 1st core shows the speed of going upto 1.512GHz, but the 2nd core doesn't go higher than 192MHz...why is that??
[TouchPad General] nomisunrider:
It only goes up if it needs it to perform some task. If you're sitting there watching it, it won't go up as it is not needed.

That is a power saving feature of dual cores.
[TouchPad General] ace9988:
yh but the graph that shows it hasn't gone higher than 192MHz for a while...wheras the 1st core keeps cycling at many different speeds, and i've run everything to get that second core going...but it still won't
[TouchPad General] thebadfrog:
What kernel? This has been a known issue with f15. Change the govenor to "ondemand" instead of "ctlondemand". I switched to warthog and dont have the issue anymore.

BTW....not saying its better. Just works for me
[TouchPad General] durps:
using the F4 kernel, both cores will run at the max speed you put, and when it's idling and not doing anything, will run at the lowest speed you put. I totally recmomend it. make sure you leave what ever governer is on the f4 kernel, if you don't, then the second core will stay at the min speed you put, thus not doing much.

3 words "Lithium ENYO BenchMark"

test and report your 2nd core activity via govnah... (running in background during test)

edit: "Lithium ENYO BenchMark" eh.... its ok at getting a result but not as much as some more mainstream activities and i now question its "bench marking validity". but the 2nd core is obviously active

look closely as the graph moves quicky depending on your settings

---------- Post added at 04:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 AM ----------

i get mixed results but i always see activity from core 2

the 2nd is actually while playing a 720 vid

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Just reflash your ROM after wiping the cache.

i dont know much about android. could you tell me how to wipe the cache and flash the ROM !! ( my phone haven't root yet )

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rashmifantasy:
Now u hav only one solution to have full format ur phone or just take ur phone to warrenty.For full format boot to bootloader by start the phone holding power and volume down button.then plug ur usb.Then down load a suitable ruu from below site and flash it.

http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
I thought you were rooted? I distinctly remember seeing your complaints in the CM7 thread??!!

Anyway, the only solutions as I see it are to perform a Clear Storage in the Bootloader / HBoot Mode, or flash an RUU. Just as an alternative, try starting the phone without the SDCard. Also, remove battery, all cards, leave for 5-10 minutes, and try again. If it still fails, you will have to go with the Clear Storage / RUU Flash method.

You get unlimited talk / text / data for $50, unless you have a smartphone, then you have to pay $5-$25 more for limited data. If I have a fully unlocked / rooted / MIUI rommed Samsung Captivate, how do they know if it's a smartphone or not?

I ask because I'm using it on t-mobile's network at the moment, but I'd like my 3G speeds back. Also, when i log into my account on t-mobile.com, it knows what phone my GF has (unrooted stock), but mine shows as unknown.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Fusion.Coil:
So I been playing around with different ROMs and really am liking the AOSP ones. CM7 is my current and was looking at flashing a kernal. So I downloaded Tiamat, dropped it onto my SD card and flashed it along with clearing cache/dalvik. No problems but I get occasional hitches. I am perfectly happy with it, but I figure since I am messing around, I'd flash JDk.

Did the same routine of downloading and dumping onto my SD card and flash away. Again I cleared cache/dalvik same as I did with Tiamat. Rebooted and popped right up. However when I check my phone under settings, it still says Tiamat under the Kernal version. Did I miss something somewhere?

am i the only one having a problem making a goldcard?

i've seached several threads here and several external links to how to make a goldcard all with slight variations but still cant get it to work.

i have used both a kingston mirco sd and a sandisk mirco sd to no avail..

i have tried using mmc0, mmc1(well mmc1 wasnt available) and mmc2, i copied out the numbers from the CMD, reversed them manually, replaced the first two-digits with '00', got the image from the website and did the hex editor thingy and confirmed it worked by removing it and putting it back into computer and phone without any error prompt to format, but still i cant get the downgrade to work. i always get the 'CID error, update failed' message.

im trying to downgrade my desire z from the OTA 2.3.3 to something that can be rooted following this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1178912, and i was hoping to try out this custom Rom, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1216997 but it seems like my dreams wont come through coz of the goldcard issue.. :-(

[HTC Inspire 4G] praxisweb:
My wife got her phone "damp" :rolleyes: ... I have used silica gel to remove all the moisture and have the phone back together...

It managed to boot one more time, then hang on the lock screen... power down and now the only thing I get is a blank screen and the initial single vibrate at power on. No LED. Not even when charging.

When I connect to USB it recognizes it as "My HTC", not much else... so it knows something is there.

ADB doesn't see it ( I can connect my Xperia X10 and it sees that so I know ADB is ok)

Any suggestions on how I might revive this downed soldier... ?

Thanks in advance.

If it makes any difference it is a bone stock AT&T branded phone that I have never tinkered with prior to my current resurrection attempts.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wolf:
Are you sure all of the moisture was gone? I would have left it in a bowl of uncooked rice or silica, but I think the rice works better, for a day. If you did do something similar, then perhaps try running the RUU to return the phone to stock. See if you can run that and get the phone back to a working state. (RUU can be found in the general section.)
[HTC Inspire 4G] praxisweb:
Yeah, the moisture is all gone... A while back I had a 1st gen iPhone... I couldn't find it for a couple weeks... later I found it... while mowing the grass. It had been in a low spot in the lawn after rain and all kinds of mother nature unpleasantness... I went through a few rounds of silica gel, a warming cycle of 125°F for 30 mins and viola... she started back up.

I will try the RUU from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917762 as soon as it finishes downloading.

ERROR [170]: USB CONNECTION ERROR
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wolf:
Disable any anti malware software and try installing either HTC Sync or just the HTC USB drivers again. If you already have Sync installed, then try uninstalling and reinstalling it. After doing this try connecting the phone again and see if it get recognized.
[HTC Inspire 4G] praxisweb:
UPDATE: Semi-Operational

After some fiddling with USB drivers I managed to get to an error 120... Low battery... so I plug it in... and it starts ringing!...

So now it appears that the screen is gone :(.

Since I know the moisture indicators are BRIGHT red... I am thinking I will crack open the case and see if there is any surgery that can be performed. At this point I know I am entering the realm of hardware rather than software, but if anyone has any thoughts or recommendations... I'm all ears.

Thanks,

[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
I'd try some more drying. Remove the battery and cover as well as the SIM cover, wrap in some tissue paper (to keep rice grains out), put it in a ziploc full of rice and bake at your oven's lowest setting (150F or so) for an hour, then let it cool in the bag for another hour. If that doesn't dry it out, then it's probably beyond drying.

OK so i ran rev on an older computer with xp and it worked :D right now im running leedriod ? so what can i do with these custom roms/?
[HTC Sensation] smoochiezz24:
I'm also using windows 7 and have had no problems. The fact that it says searching for root kinda makes me wonder if its the phone that's the problem and not your system. Is your phone connected with charge only selected? Do you have adb debugging enabled? Maybe try with another USB if you have checked the above while running as an administrator. You may have to disable your antivirus also. I have Norton and it detected revolutionary as a virus and kept deleting parts of it. That could also be the problem. You may be missing parts. Verify the zipped contents with the unzipped contents. *Edit* Just saw that you got it working. Great! But to answer your question, you can do everything. The only problem is, is figuring or what you want to do first.
[HTC Sensation] Warchief337:
doesnt say serching for root says zerging, which it sayed on the other comp too, idk why it wasnt running on my laptop but yah, so i installed leedriod on my phone , is there any roms you guys would suggest leedriod is alright but i think there are better ones out there/...

Can i safely root/install custom roms in a desire z that was upgraded to gingerbread?

I am completely new to rooting/installing custom roms to any android phone. i held out doing so because my original plan was to wait for the 2.3 update from htc. using the official update is a nightmare. i always have lags in messaging and the sense always restarts when i go back to the home screen. can i safely root and install custom roms in my phone? can anyone point me to a very easy to follow guide to do so? thank you very much.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alcak4ever:
tsk tsk tsk

dude... first of all: USE SEARCH FUNCTION!!! XDA mods have hard time maintaining the community and thousands (hundreds of) posts as is so any unnecessary posts should really be avoided.. back to thread..

Is it possible? YES! Is it safe??? No way!!!

As you can probably see in every single rooting/custom ROM flashing tutorial/guide - there's no such thing as "safe rooting/installation of custom ROM" and nobody will give you any guarantees there. ppl share their experiences but those don't necessarily relate to your (or any) other device in general.

if you mess with your phone - you must be mentally prepared for the worst, otherwise - don't do it.

"Safe" is a relative term. Almost any phone modding carries some risk of damaging your device (brick, soft brick, etc.). But if you read up BEFORE you start, and follow the instructions carefully, the risk is pretty small. Just do the research, and understand the risks, and you should be fine.
