K thanks! I'm downloading now, must be the first few cuz it's going fast. I'll wipe cache and dalvik, and let you know if I have issues.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rkrumw01:

i wipe the cache , davlik and battery anytime i flash the roms am i missing something?
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
i saw you posted that u wiped cache and dalvic-cache and battery stats. But Are you wiping data? Wipe data along with everything else, flash superwipe then flash rom. make sure u dont do an advanced data restore, if u want u can restore ur apps with titanium

This may help you answer ur question:

Binary100100

I'll make it easier for you guys.

put the flash_image binary file on your internal sdcard.

mount the system as rw by entering the following command in terminal emulator:

#

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p29 /system

Now enter:

cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin/

chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image

If you have root explorer just copy it into /system/bin (must be mounted as RW)

Set the permissions to

owner x x x

group x x

others x x

special permissions all blank

this will make the permissions rwxr-xr-x

To use it use terminal emulator

flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img (assuming the file is on your sdcard)

Every time you flash a new rom you will have to do all of this unless the rom developer includes it in the rom. Since few do it's better to know how to do it.

Thanks X and AJ and that other guy that tols me to wipe the data before but i missed that part. the Keyboard is working and wifi calling is working along with wifi and cell calling thank you.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TJet1.8:
I always wipe twice since BulletProof 1.0.0 and NEVER had any issues with reboots, missing keyboards, FC's, etc....

1.) First, wipe davlik, cache, data/factory reset.

2.) Flash ROM via CWR.

3.) Flash kernel (boot.img) in the ROM via EKF.

4.) Wipe davlk, cache, data/factory reset AGAIN.

5.) Manually reconfigure/install apps (never restored from a backup - i.e. Titanium).

Works like a charm EVERY time for me :)

X!!...you've out done yourself again!!!

Thank you for another masterpiece!!

:cool:
[HTC Amaze 4G] rkrumw01:
you guys are only saying flash the kernel if there is something wrong ? what if you are happy with the way it is running :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] TJet1.8:
I ALWAYS flash the kernel that is in the ROM .zip file.

I've never flashed anyone elses kernel.

Doesn't mean you can't install another kernel if you wish.

I'm just letting everyone know that i've never had any ROM issues flashing the way I do.

Maybe I'm just lucky with my flashing? Lol.

Am I missing something, my recovery is still the same, 5.0.2.7 or something.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
if you're using ROM Manager to see what recovery you are using then it will say 5.0.2.6

If your recovery says 5.0.2.7 then you didn't install the right recovery.
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:
Hey X, I'm still getting a little twitch n lag when simply swiping from one home screen to the next. It wasn't that way at all on 2.2.1 and earlier.

Other than, COOL new recovery! I like it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eliasadrian:
Yea, sorry. I forgot you could check in ROM manager and I was trying to remember from being in recovery.

But isn't it supposed to be new? Mine looks the same, or is it under the hood improvements? And I didn't install any new recovery or change anything to it, unless it was part of flashing from CWM.

Edit: Either way, I just downloaded the 5.5.0.4 from the Recovery thread and flashed it through bootloader. Sorry if I'm confusing people, I just realized my recovery didn't change and thought it was supposed to, but it's easy to do. Thanks again X and everyone for always helping!
[HTC Amaze 4G] xologist:
You guys confuse ppl with so many questions..

heck.. ur even confusing me and I know what to do. lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
That's funny. If I had to install every program everytime, I'd still be working on it after X's next release! LOL. I can't imagine how long it would take Binary to reinstall everything he has on his phone! I don't have a problem with Titanium backup restoring all my apps.

Now you really made me angry hence I have to hit the thanks button :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
ya the problem was the hw acceration doing the rebooting had to remove man :(
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Titanium is the shiznit but it's a long and annoying process.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I just finished download the rom and I was pleased to see that xboarder included the kernelupdate script in the /system/bin directory.

What does that mean?

Well to update to the boot.img file that is included with the rom all you should need to do is enter the following command in terminal or adb.

su to get # if you don't have it already.

here's the command... ready?

kernelupdate

It SHOULD update your kernel for you. I haven't tried it with this new rom yet but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Could anyone verify please? Make sure you have the boot.img file in the /system directory first if you don't mind.

Thanks!
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:
I see I see. That makes quite a difference as far as smoothness n quickness is concerned. Darn. I guess if that takes care of the reboots, you're the boss! =)
[HTC Amaze 4G] joe_the_man:
Somehow.....I still see noobs gettin confused abt this....

But thx binary and x for makin this so easy a monkey could do it
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:

[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
I would agree with some folks here, I much rather wait for the anticipated amazing roms you are making to be final as daily drivers than to flash once or twice a week.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Honestly, I don't like the idea of a themed rom. I like as stock looking as possible. I spice it up with UOT with things like green highlight and a battery percentage on a stock looking battery icon... but that's about it. Yeah you read that right... I don't like the circle battery status icon on my status bar so that's the first thing that I get rid of. :p

Depending on how much you theme this I may have to stick with QuikSense 3.0.0. :(

So I'm +1 on the theme/unthemed version. You can always make a separate thread just for your theme. Just my input though.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
I'll try and make a way to untheme it to guys :)

[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
Thats the thing, in order for me to know its at the last stable stage I have to keep following the thread. So as to not post repeated things and every flash there is an upgrade. It was just my opinion I'm guessing its bc thats how I got used to with other phones and if you wanted the betas or early stages of the rom you can get them separetely. Even X said it himself in another post, he doesnt post all of his work on xda he does it on his google+.

Im not against him doing this its just imo more of an easier thing to do so that he doesnt have all these noobs filling the forums with same questions. It was just a suggestion. By all means hes free to do what he wants I myself enjoy reading the threads looking at what everyone else is experiencing and whats the fix and the next update and all. He is feeding my Flashing addiction which im happy to feed him his developing addiction. :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
LOL. It doesnt matter to me, ive been flashing his betas from g+ so if they were only there that would be fine to. But i dont know my flashing addiction could wait for the final stable release haha

Will you get flash disabled due to cold weather in this ROM? I am on QuikSense now and tried to take a picture inside my house and it said this lol... Its definitely not below 0 degrees celsius in my house.

Are you having any issues charging while the phone is on?
[HTC Amaze 4G] death2verizon:
that kernelupdate command didnt seem to work for me.

the command itself worked, it just dont think it updated the kernel.

i took the boot.img and ran it thru the kernel flasher tool just to see, and now it is showing that "paul@ubuntu" version kernel where it had been saying "htc-something" kernel, so i'm pretty sure that kernelupdate command isnt actually doing what it is supposed to.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
You need to reboot after running the kernelupdate command.

Did you do that?

p.s. I downloaded the file many different times from different sources but still all say (bad)

Update: I just formatted the external SD to see if that would help and still (bad), plus it keeps saying (Status 1) , Whatever that error means.

After flashing I can no longer enable Wifi at all. When I go to try it just says "Error" underneath wifi (where it normally says off/on). I had this problem when I flashed to the newest version of Beastmod, then I flashed to Bulletproof last night and the problem persisted. I am flashing by dropping the .zip into my sdcard, and loading up clockwork in the recovery console, wipe cache, wipe data/factory reset, flash zip (tried wipe data/factory reset again at this point just to try after I had started it up and saw no wifi).

Everything else works great, major fan of your work, xboarder. I know your busy, but any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

[HTC Amaze 4G] fuego77:
just saw the post you were referring too, man thats a bummer , 2.2.0 SPOILED me with its glorious smoothness :o , i had about 1 reboot a day, i think i could handle it though. might flash 2.2.0 again for now :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] shirazir:
I'm on the same boat, it started out fine but lately it's been somewhere in the range of a single reboot a day. I guess it's a small price to pay for the buttery smooth screen switching.

I'm still holding out for ICS (whenever that may be) or something with bigger changes, until them I'm happy with 2.2.0 :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] adslee:
It's significantly choppier and laggier in terms of UI fluidity compared to 2.2.0 because X had to remove the hardware acceleration for the time being to stop the bootloops.

If you can put up with the bootloops, I say stick with 2.2.0 for the time being, I couldn't stand the choppiness of 2.3.1!
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
I dont know what you guys are talking about.. It runs just as smooth as 2.2.0 for me.. already got a automatic reboot (not boot"loop") when installing all my market apps again, when started back up the apps just started downloading again which is normal so im not worried since it only happened once. im deffinitely not going back to 2.2.0, also i didnt even need to install the new kernel manually, wifi and everything works fine first boot. Love the improvements btw. nice work x
[HTC Amaze 4G] Valde_Edius:
I attempted this method, the flasher gave me an error because BulletProof-V2.3.1.zip contains 2 x boot.img files. (one in root, one in system/). I am afraid to process one of the boot.img files without confirmation from someone here.

I have absolutely no bootloop, no reboot, no lagging whatsoever. Also, I always carry over my data (restore) from previous built backup.

With more than 80 apps installed and a bunch of widget running, I went to sleep last night at 100% and wake-up 6 hours later with still 100% remain.

After 11 hours my battery is at 80%. I admitted that I don't use the phone much today though.

all the time

, namely Tasker, System Panel, SwipePad, Viber, NetTalk, Tango, Ebay (log-in and notifier on), Package Tracker, Craiglist Notifier, WhitePage, Mr.Number, KeepScreen, GoogleVoice, AppProtector ... too many to list though

[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
They are both the exact same boot.img file.

The reason he included it twice is for those with s-off and those without.

The one in /system is there to update by using the command:

flash_image boot /system/boot.img

OR

Just copy the boot.img to the sdcard with root explorer or whatever then use the Flash Image GUI.

There are dozens of ways to do this... I'm sure you'll figure a way that works for you.

Using an app called easy battery. Have a screen time out of 30 seconds. That mugen battery needs some serious cycles to get good use, download the battery calibrator like the gentlemen said and follow instructions. I think the battery life is decent with the mugen battery. First like 20 percent of battery life drop fast then goes slow after.
