YES! thats it... Amon Ra! :p It was way better than clockwork but support dried up. This 4EXT recovery is magical! Saves me alot of work from having to dual boot in and out of Linux, lol! Yeah, mine is faster too! I always wondered why CM7 didnt seem faster than froyo and it was because I used superwipe before flash cm7 for the first time, lol! Nice catch btw! Sent a thanks point your way ;)

yeah, I saw his thread and just flipped through it. He seems very helpful. I've got everything figured out now so I'm good;) Thanks again for pointing this out!
[G2 and Desire Z General] ptesmoke:
my wifes acer liquid mt uses amonra :p, wish we had one awesome dev for it :( irks me i cant put cm7 on it for her :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
Yeah, I remember it had a terminal command prompt right in recovery so you could do fastboot stuff and skip adb pretty much all together. Plus, the Egyptian god name is sooo cool lol! I wonder where amon ra is these days? Maybe he's on one the droid subforums or something... wasn't the acer liquid a tablet? I have yet to jump into one of those yet. Not much need for me. My G2 is pretty much my laptop these days...

Oh and EXT4 part is soooo fast! I don't even have to overclock past 1 ghz anymore:D

My battery is actually lasting throughout the entire day even with streaming/games/browsing/and just being glued to my hand in general, lol!
[G2 and Desire Z General] ptesmoke:
i dunno the name of their tablet but the liquid e was pretty much acer's first droid phone, the "mt" or "metal" being its successor, it is an ok device (shares the same cpu as us) but there is a serious lack of development for it, which is a shame because it is a very capable device despite its internal space limitations. my wife loves it but i know shed enjoy it so much more if it was truely unleashed :)

that said i am also enjoying the performance boost switching to ext4 has given me, battery life i can also agree has gotten better as well!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ditamae:
So... not sure if someone said this already, but 4EXT Recovery Control can be downloaded in a trial version which last 3 days. I also didn't know what would happen if I let the 3 days expire, so I went into the Market and "upgraded" thru the installed trial version which appears to be the actual 4EXT Recovery Control - because it is - for 3 days. ;) I was happy to upgrade and contribute 2 bucks. My guess is after 3 days you get downgraded somehow, but don't lose Recovery... kinda like Ed said.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
Sounds like a good device! I don't know why the Acer got such bad reviews. People go too

much by he said/she said reviews instead of actually trying it out in person. That's the only bad thing about the internet (well one of them ;) ) and retail experience is killed. That's partly due to knownothings that are hired but anyways... I'm don't see myself replacing the G2 anytime soon and I usually do after a year. I've played with a few dual cores and to be honest.. they don't seem much faster or better. Just seems like a waste of battery though it could be a saver if properly optimized. Well, we're getting off track here. I don't want to derail this important thread so I'll shut up now ;) too many red bulls tonight lol

---------- Post added at 12:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------

Well, that does make sense. I probably will buy it once I try out the nandroid part and its reliable. It did fail me today but it was technically a conversion that tried to restore so that's not exactly a plain ole backup. I might have run out of sd space even if the files were just temporarily saved. I need to go from 8 to 16 GB to be honest. I'm fighting to keep 1 GB free for defrags and such. Plus, I always think it helps speed to have some free space. Thanks for the info!

Oh... what happened to your Swedish model avatar? You have a nice blonde now ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ditamae:
:) Yeah, just felt like a change I guess. I'm always switching it up --- be it my lockscreen, homescreen, boot animation, profile pics, you name it. But the Swedish actress will be back. ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ditamae:
Just to confirm before I flash a new radio... it is okay to use guhl99's efs wipe tool before hand, right? It was amazinglarry's superwipe that changed our partitions from ext 4 to ext 3, but his flashable efs wipe tool should be fine, right? Sorry I know this is a stupid question, but I've never flashed a radio before, and just don't want to mess anything up. Thanks in advance guys.
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdKeys:
Tsubus built guhl's efs wipe into his latest 212b version so now the radio data is wiped at each installation. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
Wasn't there a plain old efs wipe only just for flashing radios though? It didn't touch anything else if I remember correctly...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ditamae:
Ohhh, okay. Awesome.

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

Yeah, that's what I was talking about. But I'm pretty sure Ed is saying that just the efs wipe tool is built into the ROM. Which is great; no reason to do it twice then. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdKeys:
I have a copy of the efs wipe tool (zip) if anyone needs it.

Edit: I put a copy in my dropbox: http://db.tt/AgyZYnr
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
Okay, first full day of experience with EXT4 was great! I'm still restoring stuff so I've been using stuff like crazy. I wasn't prepared for a wipe so I'm having to go the slower route. Anyways, I only have to OC to 1 ghz where before I was at 1.5 ghz on EXT3. I even tested some benchmarks at 1.5ghz while on EXT4 just for ****s and giggles. I got mid 60s to 70s on linpack and 3000's on quadrant. That's on regular resolution because changing it affects your scores greatly. I had a whole day and counting of battery life even with constant use thanks to only OCing to 1ghz and maybe a bit is due to the more effecient partitions. Thanks to the manual restore... I was able to clear out some unused apps and find new ones as well. Made a clean backup using 4EXT so I can have a nice base if ever needed. Been quite a day and fun rediscovering what all Android has done in the past and what is today (I meant that by looking at some of my backup apks which some were the first in the market and finding some new ones currently). It finally feels fast again with barely taxing resources and cpu like froyo did.

Found a phone for my wife, we are going to the store Saturday and pick up a MT4G or MT4G slide. Finally, got the price down by switching around plans. Her current plan sucked balls anyways so its a win/win. Have to watch out for those new plans though... some range from 200MB to 5GB. And they don't throttle anymore... switched to charge by MB!:eek:

Gotta love tmobile usa... they keep getting better and better:rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdKeys:
Wow! Really keep an eye on that data usage, especially if you and the wife are going to be sharing. Having to pay for extra data usage can get expensive fast! I think I've seen some apps that will monitor that for you and alert you when you get near your limit.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
We aren't shared thank goodness. I use around 4-5GB myself and she's around 3-4.
[G2 and Desire Z General] djfoo000:
Alright so my phone is having some issues that people recommend me to give it a good clean wipe using SuperWipeG2. I've found that the superwipe has an updated version with ext4 (which is what this thread was about).

What I want to ask is, can I just flash the SuperWipeG2+ext4 zip using CWMR? Will my [whatever is concerned] stay in ext4 in the future, if I perform the a /data wipe using CWMR?

I am interested in a conversion to ext4.
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
So can I just use the new superwipe then restore with cwmr? Or is the only way to flash the new recovery wipe and convert my back up?
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdKeys:
You can just flash the updated SuperwipeG2+ext4 with CWM Recovery and that will convert your partitions, but I still recommend flashing the 4EXT Recovery so that you can monitor the status of your partitions.

I believe if you restore from an older Nandroid backup you'll be back to ext 3 again. With the 4EXT Recovery you can tell immediately when you reboot into recovery what format your partitions are in and convert them if needed.
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
oh crap im doing this right now does anyone know if glite is ext4 compatible?

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 PM ----------

ok g-lite 1.0.3 works with ext4 fyi! lol

---------- Post added at 05:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------

When I converted my intact filesystem from ext3 to ext4, it made backups, any way to delete those in the interest of space?
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdKeys:
I was going to suggest you go over to madmaxx82's thread and ask him there but I see you've already done that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
yea figured it made sense lol.
[G2 and Desire Z General] djfoo000:
IINM, the only way to get the 4EXT recovery is to install the 4EXT Recovery Updater?
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdKeys:
Good question....ask madmaxx82 here in his thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1271775
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdKeys:
This thread needs a bump. There are users that are flashing the old Superwipe that AmazingLarry created. That Superwipe will set your partitions in ext3 format, which is NOT what you want to run the latest roms. You want the SuperwipeG2+ext4 version. I'll update the OP with a working link.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] fajardoju90:
There definitely is signal increase of both cdma and lte.

I did notice a slight increase in battery usage after flashing.also a very small lag.like if I was low on memory or something.

Overall nothing major so definitely worth it for the signal boost.

Hey guys,

Take it for what it is worth but I work in the media and have a contact with a regional rep at Verizon. I asked him about the VM issue with the leaked build.

while installing a new rom,i found a lot of problems so i spend a lot of time, now i have no more power to install my rom,when i plug the charge,the phone try to boot,the curent os i have stuck on the htc logo,so is there any whay to charge my hd2 while is off? or using cwm or magldr?

many thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Try this solution.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Power up phone in Hard-Reset Mode (Volume UP + boot) or bootloader (Volume DOWN + boot)

Im not sure, but since the HD2 doesn't charge whilst on CWM nor MAGLDR, those two options are the only remaining options.

or follow Nigeldg's advice :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hamzawi:
i tryed it but not working :( (not the same case)

the bootloader (Volume UP + boot) do not charge the battery :(

is there any other solution ?

no no, bootloader is (tri-colour screen) which is Volume DOWN & boot does charge (but takes a little longer)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hamzawi:
yes the (tri-colour screen) doesn't charge also :( i tryed it
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
When you say my the solution on the thread isn't working, what exactly do you mean? Have you tried cutting the USB wire as a last resort and connecting them to the battery? That is guaranteed to work.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hamzawi:
i tryed this :

this fix is for when you can get into MagLDR but not into Android or WP7

1. startup phone

2. connect your phone to a charger

3. go to MagLDR Mass Storage mode and leave your phone in it for about 5 - 10 minutes, then start an OS and charge it like you normally would.

i didn't tryed this i only have one usb cable and it is dangerous, i finely resolved the problem using my friends' phone.thaks to all of you :)
