Yes i think so, i followed the rooting tutorial exactly as mentioned. Still is there anyway to confirm that?

And i am not sure if i will be able to partition properly through recovery, afraid of me doing something wrong. But i can do it in computer. Is there any tutorial for partitioning through recovery?

Update: I did it, it was quite simple, thanks. Now i will check if the problem gets solved and will reply back about the status. But i didnt find any enable usb mass storage option in mounts and storage menu of recovery.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Boot into recovery.. you can see in the background, written in green -

Ext(2,3,4) support by

I will write a tutorial on how to partition through recovery... with screens if possible.

Cool..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Norepinephrine:
But i didnt find any enable usb mass storage option in mounts and storage menu of recovery. The options present in mounts and storage menu are:

unmount /cache

moumt /cache

mount /sdcard

mount /system

mount /sd-ext

format /boot

format /cache

format /data

format /sdcard

format /system

format /sd-ext

mount USB storage

On selecting mount USB storage option there is only one option - Unmount
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Mounts and Storage menu >> mount USB storage (last option)

Connect your phone to your computer via USB... you will be able to see your fat32 drive on computer... copy ROM zip and your other data and unmount and flash the rom

Thanks a lot dude. Now Titanium and Disk Usage are working as usual. And after installing around 10 apps, internal memory is 82 mb, is that normal. How much internal is free in ur phone?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
This doesn't look wright, i have more than 10 app's and have 110 free.

Guys sorry of getting you back a page but, prateekkej idea of better battery stats is, that it gives you more info, because the built in stats, well politely sayng it's rubbish.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Open /data in diskusage... that's your internal memory... I have about 92 apps installed and my internal looks like this..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Norepinephrine:
Here are the screenshots of my phone, its 73 mb now. I have 33 apps. Can u tell by seeing these SS that apps are going to card only and not to the internal memory?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Okay it's working as it should... If you run out of memory, the above app data can be moved to external too.. You will get constant 146mb internal free,,, This was how the settings were in earlier versions of NExtGen.. But it was affecting performance slightly... so app data was moved in internal... :)

Edit: Saw your 2nd screenshot.. Also this is for everyone.... What you are seeing is the default memory management of this ROM... app data on internal (/data) ..... dalvik cache and all apps on sdcard (/sd-ext)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Norepinephrine:
Thanks dude. Whats the safest and reliable way to move the app data, just in case? Though i dont think i will do/need it.

Also is anybody using tasker with this ROM? I want to know if tasker works properly with this ROM...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] knight84:
just to inform. i found a bug on this ROM. i dial some numbers then leave it there for 1 mins plus and it freeze and restart :(

i have to reinstall it again.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
I will add some tutorials in 3rd post later today :)

I tried that and it works fine for me...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Gaurav619:
Waiting for your NExt NExtGen release :P
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] prateekkej:
Dude i got this info from this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.smapho.battery_mix&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImpwLnNtYXBoby5iYXR0ZXJ5X21peCJd

but then i removed that app

and i have more than 60 apps but my internal memory is 101.0 MB

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:36 PM ----------

Now in 5 hrs it dropped from 100 to 75 with little usage no background app no data syncing

This is just for the info I m not complaining about battery backup

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
Nilot was sayng about this stripe(attachment), thanks about tutorial, now I'll see what can be done about dropbox, I think i made it, if not PM-me
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Yeah.. thanks for that...

@nilot: This is how the original status bar is... just both the backgrounds are opaque in stock ROM so maybe it's not visible there... but I will take a look at it and see if I can change it... Its not a big deal anyways.. I like how it helps in showing off transparency :D
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nilot27:
yeah i was talking about that stripe...

its not a big deal but it would look better and a step closer to perfect...:cool:

PS - hope u have read my pm...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
The ROM is amazing, everything works very well. Just a suggestion: maybe you could make WiFi channel 12-13 available? My neighborhood is crammed with WiFi on 1-11 channels, and they are WiFi-N, while I still have to live with an old G router.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] marko94:
Great!!!

Hello akya22!!

I flash your rom ,and this is one beautiful rom ..Everything works fine,very stable for now,fast..I cant wait new release..

Just very good job.. :D

But,i have one question :How to extend battery life ?

Before i flash your rom,i have stock rom,the battery life was about approximately 90 hours on 100 %( wifi off and all other programs that huge consume battery), but now show cca 50 h on 100 %? how it is possible ?? program that it shows is GO Power Master..

thanks
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] pico hackr:
vijnathin , nice rom

the green looks awesome!

and so we got a best rom for the explorer its rocking than joggy rom , lol it doesent looks like a custom rom , it looks and functions better than stock rom ................love it lol....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Okay I searched a bit.. apparently 12-13 aren't allowed in US and in some countries..

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31726284&postcount=6

The above post explains the situation better...

also look at this post - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13559526&postcount=1

So you can enable 12 and 13 by changing wifi country code to EU.... This post has also explained how to do that... I will try to dig some more information if I can... Sadly I cannot test it since I don't have a wifi at home... Hope this helps..I will see what I can do...

Thanks.. I think I have never had battery problems because all the optimizations that I have applied on this ROM are to minimize the battery usage... So I don't get it how people are facing that. Secondly, whenever you change the ROM, its advised that you recalibrate your battery first... But I will try testing some more.. and let's see :)

Thanks... in recent times I was wondering if my ROM had any future.. with all the recent developments in CM9 and other ROMs based on ICS... but comments like these keep me going :) I hope devs work on porting a solid base so that maybe one day we will have a NExtGen with ICS and sense 4 :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
NExt Gen Ics will be very good, still, a lot of users are using this rom, even if they don't have accounts here, (They'll have to make soon cos I'm pissed of explayning everithing), so don't give up, if something looks and works good it has future and this have!
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Norepinephrine:
Can u suggest a safe tutorial for that. I have seen many tutorials on net, most of which consist of first step to discharge battery fully.

I m afraid of doing this because at many places i have read that this is harmful for modern batteries.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:

By this, or somewhere in recovery was, "wipe battery stats" in advanced I think but not really sure
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
As someone already said that when he dial someone, leave there for about 1 minute, the phone would hang and restart. I also got that. I gave my gf a "ping" (I call, but she would intentionally reject the call), just when I saw "Line busy", the HTC logo appear, and then NExtGen boot screen :crying:.

And I have used your ROM for more than 1 week, just 1-2 day ago, the phone started to become laggy :crying:. Everything is not as smooth as it was when I first installed it. I installed your ROM, restore my apps, and from that day, I haven't installed anything more. Any clues? Maybe because I have a crappy class 4 card? It's class 4, but I know it's crappier then my Sandisk Class 4.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Are you using stock dialer or any custom dialer? I have used both 100s of times till now and not a single problem yet... I can also say for sure that I have used this ROM the longest, and my phone is almost full of apps, but haven't faced a single lag or force close yet... This can be a problem with sd card... but tell me have you restored apps from any other ROM? like ICS or CM7/9 ?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
I use the stock dialer. I restored my apps from MasterMind3 ROM (the rooted stock ROM that most people use after unlocking bootloader :p). Never mind the details, I restored apps from a stock GB ROM :D. I have used your ROM more than 1 weeks, I made a lot of "ping", and only this morning, the phone reboot. After that, I tried making a lot of missed calls (either "No answer" or "Line busy"), but it still not happen again.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Reboot phone, clear cache and other crap and try your best to reproduce the error... Would certainly like to know more about how or why it happened.. :p
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] coolmanish4ads:
need help

hello i need fast help

i am using nxtgen v1_3 rom

i removed my sd card from my htc explorer and inserted the sd card into other phone .

now when i again reinsert the sd card all the apps which were on sd-ext partition are now opening and phone is showing currently on low memory.

so what should i do now again format the sd card and make new partition or anything else.

thanx
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] DanceOff:
Reboot phone and check location of everything, dalvik cache app data

You must use s2e instead of a2sdgui
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] coolmanish4ads:
hi i rebooted the phone many times and don't know how to check the delvik cache.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
If you have nandroid backup, restoring that would be easier... Also removing sd card while phone is switched on is not advisable since most of the data is on sdcard...

Sorry but s2e is for CyanogenMod only and my ROM does not uses a2sd/a2sdgui
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Gaurav619:
Waiting for your new release... :P :D

Battery Issue

I updated my Explorer with version 1.3, but now I am facing battery issues, can anybody help me with this????

Am I the only on facing this problem??? :(:(:(:(
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
None of the changes in 1.3 can affect the battery... Frankly I think people are expecting too much from this tiny battery...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Malhar0101:
Battery Issue

No it's not the case, before i changed my rom I was using ABL v3 , and gave me a fab battery life of two days with normal usage, while

NextGen 1.3 hardly runs a day long, try it yourself bro and feel the difference.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Then switch to ABL ! :laugh:

Also
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ateeq72:
Lolzzz.... SO TRUE!!! :P .......
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
Actually mine, with normal usage, stays day and a half, with no issues, keep in mind that data connection is always on, also the gps is always on, also the sync is always on, for that I have day and a half only. If I start switching things off, maybe it will stay 2 and something days.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Malhar0101:
Battery Issue

ok I switched back to ABL , thanx for reply!!!
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
People please don't be so offensive :confused:. Comparing ROMs is normal, but since akya22 said that he consider doing that is rude, we should follow his rule, at least on his thread :p. BTW, I find out that akya22 is a really adorable developer, he answer our questions pretty fast. And don't like some developers which are like: "Oh, that's a bug in my ROM? But I can live with that bug, so you can", or "I don't use that feature, so please don't ask me to fix it" blah blah blah...:crying:, akya22 seems to try to make his ROM perfect. Nothing personal here :D.

And FYI, I leave my phone with Mobile Network on, Autosync on all day (except at night, when I'm sleeping), I use GSM (WCDMA seem to cause my phone to lags when it constantly switched between UMTS and HSDPA :(). Each morning, when my phone has 8-17% battery left, I charge it to 65-75% (I wake up, check some stuffs, and then plug it in, get out of my bed, do some personal things, and after about 1 hour, I disconnect it, and start my busy day). So in short, each day, I use my battery from 75% down to 15%. Of course, on weekends, I give it a full charge, sometime a full discharge also.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] prateekkej:
battery isuue

i m not opposing but i think akya22 now should do something about the battery bcoz now its from 3-4 users.so there must be some problem.

and about my usage i have background data ,auto sync,and mobile data off whole day .I use only wifi at home thats all and that too for 30 min -40 min 2 times a day and music also for atleast 40 minutes .After all this my phone is giving me a backup of 1 day .

:):)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Any smartphone lasts only a day... if you use it as a smart phone.. Show me some reports of apps that check battery performance.. logs.. anything.. just saying battery doesn't lasts is of no use at all...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nilot27:
downloaded ur rom..will flash later...review tomorrow..:cowboy:

one thing...is bootanimation really necessary??? i mean it looks cool and nice but it makes the rom heavy and also delays the boot time up..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
It really does not matter.. really.. boot animations never slow down ROMs.. they are killed as soon as system is ready to boot.. no matter what animation you are using.. I have specifically tried doing both.. since boot animation was the last thing I added..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thippesh:
shall I flash with ext4?

made by pc for jaggyrom
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nilot27:
hmm..okay..and can u replace the old htc stock gallery with the cm 3d gallery..it looks better and albums are better organized..:):)

and what do u think about my last big post with the suggestions????:silly::highfive:

---------- Post added at 12:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------

and i accept it...coolest bootanimation i saw till date...u are really good with bootanims..:good:

booting up..cant wait...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Edit: Should work fine with ext 2/3/4 :)

I will take a look at them tomorrow.. right now tired like hell but the excitement of someone trying my ROM isn't letting me sleep :p
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nilot27:
Booted up...its nice..looks simple...the font looks great..:good:

a few things..the three buttons at the bottom of the app drawer looks strange..white is not going well..jaggy had the same prob too..though he fixed it with his updates..

and i still prefer es file explorer..it had root explorer features and somehow i prefered its looks..

and is there any need of Wifi tether???? isnt it already there..wifi hotspot???

and ofc correct me if i am wrong..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thippesh:
whatever am gonna trying now itself......
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Yeah there will be a few bugs here and there.. I will fix them later.. Solid explorer does everything that ES explorer does and much more.. It also has root features.. just try going up to the root and browsing data directory.. You will be asked for root permissions.. But I agree it depends on personal choice.. You can always install the app that you prefer..

I think Indian stock ROM didn't have hotspot.. that's why added wifi tether.. I would suggest to keep it.. not much big in size.. anyway are you getting 146mb internal memory free after second boot?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nilot27:
ya...146 mb after second reboot..and was there any stock app before calculator..i have a feeling somethings missing..:confused: u may reply tomorrow..:p
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ps298:
Cool rom. The theme looks great. I have to ask one thing though. In the notification bar, when a notification comes, is the text transparent?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thippesh:
-Installed on ext4

-It's really simple nice n superb

-I love it, (fonts, working performance, mount2sd, green)

-I got around 130 mb on first boot

-Installed and played some games ( temple run, speed moto) really I feel the performance is super, in JaggyRom I'm getting some flickering when playing speed moto, in NExtGen no flickering running well

- 2nd reboot I got 146 mb free

Just amazing... Good work
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
Flashing........ will edit this post tomorrow about what's what, for me screens look great (i love green). And please make a little FAQ, mostly for you, but the answers for question like "do I need a factory reset" are helpfull (personally I know you don't need factory reset but........). Edit tomorrow. Now I have a question, is there really need of that "super swipe" when flashing the rom it says that by it self it's formating everithing. BOOT ANIM. IS AWSOME!!!!
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Yeah I have removed HTC logging apps and bloatware.. I will add the names soon to the OP.

If I understand correctly the text should be white on black background..

Oh man thanks for confirming.. !!!!

Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely add FAQ as people start asking me questions :p Yeah superwipe is needed when coming from other ROM.. the reason is because it formats sd-ext too... It formats data, cache, system and sd-ext partition and also traces from sd card of previous ROM. Just makes it easy to wipe everything in one click :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thippesh:
If u already have ext2/4,

super wipe will do good job

By wiping ur ext, and it Will clear the used old memory,
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] <JohnCarter>:

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sufian88:
I tried this ROM and really liked some of the things, in my short exploration.

semi-transparent notification background looks really cool, also it helps when we need to know how much progress has been made in the background process.

intriguing theme and boot screen.

impressive touch response.

There is a suggestion I have, though. And I hope you won't mind it. :)

Accessing some of the basic features (like Phone, Settings) take a little longer when opened for first time after boot. I guess this is caused by moving them to memory card (to make more phone memory, I know), if they are moved back to phone memory, it would speed up the ROM which is already amazing.

Edit: it's also taking a long time to import contacts from SD card. This might be related to moving apps to SD card, or it just my device? Thanks again, for making this awesome ROM. :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] aj_killer:
I had similar problem with cranium kernel, but then i used setcpu with an additional profile for screen off, and set it to minimum. Now my battery performs better with screen off. I know in a way I've defeated the purpose of a kernel, but it works for me. I do the same with nextgen rom.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
I suffered from another reboot just minutes ago :(. It seems that there's some problems with 3G mode. The phone rebooted when I switched from GSM only to WCDMA only mode.

P/S: The previous time reboot is when it is trying to reconnect to Mobile Network in WCDMA mode after a call ended. You know, when you make a call, the phone automatically turn off Mobile Network.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
I don't have 3G enabled on my card but will check in the evening on another card.. I tried switching network modes but didn't face any problem...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
this evening I will try reinstalling your ROM.

can you tell any logging app bcoz i dont knoe any ??:angel:

and my phone in 24-36 hrs remains 12-14 hrs offline i go to school bro 7 hrs school and other 5 hrs night then i m getting this backup thats the only reson bcoz i think airplane should not consume that much battery.There must be some bug. bcoz on my stock rom airplane mode consumed only 4-6 % battery whiile on this rom its geting above 10 below 17 .May be its bcoz of some Mods which are not doing their work as expected.What's say??
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] prateekkej:
Snapshot (System battery stats)

here is the snapshot of system battery stats . Plz suggest any app for logging??
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
Install "Better battery stats" or something similar. this is usless, anyway as I look at that, click on the graph for what's the blue line?

BBS have special thing partial wakelock, that's very usefull
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Oh try one thing.. Someone had mentioned in earlier posts that enabling sleep mode was a cause of some drop in battery percentage. So give it a try and make sure its disabled... Settings >> Power >> Enable sleep mode >> Never.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
This was me, the case then was, in the morning phone was of, it still has battery, the stats looked like sh*t, I tried again it happened once the same thing, there are no logcats, because the phone was off, when I saw it. I put it on sleep mod, with the screen always on, nothing happened, so I just can't get logcats from that and I gave up. If somebody have ideas, no prob to give them a try.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Okay I am trying a new kernel plus some tweaks to see if things can get better..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
Sleep mode works fine for me. In fact, if I leave my phone with Mobile Network on, Autosync on, I lost 10-15% per night. But with sleep mode (don't use automatic mode), or I manually turn off those 2 things at night, only 2-3% are lost from 10pm to 4am.

BBS are enough to find source of battery drain in most case. In my experience, try looking in 'Alarms', this is where apps' wake-ups are recorded. Some stupid launcher/ widget can make 100+ wake-ups in less than 1 hour.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
I lost 2% last night from 12am - 5:30am.. Will test some more and post later..

In you screenshot I can see Equalizer eating up battery... Try disabling "Enable Wakelock" option..
