I notice you're using the Hero recovery whereas I am using Cursor's. I wonder which recovery tbrummell uses.

But capychimp is using the Hero recovery and he had no problems.

I am shooting in the dark here.....hmmmmmmmmm.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tbrummell:
Mine is "RA-hero-v1.6.2".

Thing is, mine worked fine yesterday. Wierd. Wiped and reinstalled v0.8, same result as Harrison.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tbrummell:
I think, for me, this may have started when I re-partitioned my SD Card. I think I used a 96 meg swap and .... I forget now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tbrummell:
OK, repartitioning to 64 & 512.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Harrison_K:
those are the same partitions i'm using.

Also, I updated to 1.6.2 HERO recovery before flashing (my sig still shows 1.5.2). I can try using Cursor's later today if you think that will make a difference.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tbrummell:
OK, I give up, I must be doing something very, very wrong. I can't even boot after installing now.

Hope my backup restores properly.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabioccoelho:
I´m using Recovery-RA-6.35-1.5.2 and no have problems for now. I figured out one only bug into Galery.

This a fast/stable ROM, thanks ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I don't think it should since capychimp was able to flash and boot using the Hero recovery without problems.

I was also thinking the partitions may be an issue. This is what I did based on Superatmel's instructions for paritioning for his SuperEclair rom:

Create Partitions:

- Go into recovery mode (1.5.2 or higher)

- wipe

- Format the sd to fat32

- 64Mb swap (I have it set to 96Mb)

- 512 ext, which will create ext2

- The rest will automatically assign it to FAT32 (quick format because it makes the SD unless this is new and as Fat32).

- After that you have ext4 is to go to the option to convert ext2 to ext3 and then the option to convert ext3 to ext4.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Where is your backup stored? Hopefully on another drive. Partitioning wipes all data, but you're probably aware of that....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hk5354:
Live Wallpapers work now , after turned off the Live 3d acceleration.

but there is some problem when boot some time....hold at "htc Magic" screen.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabioccoelho:
Same for me :p

Thanks for this information ;)

Best regards.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Harrison_K:
Only difference for me was a 64mb swap, otherwise, those are exactly the steps I followed. It was a brand new SD card.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hk5354:
3G speed seems not bad:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Why is ext4 better than ext3?

This has probably been answered elsewhere but i wish to know if ext4 will actually increase performance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Not sure. I wondered that myself why Superatmel recommends that. The answer may be in his forum somewhere.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Alright, I'm just not sure if i should do it coz some ROMs don't support it... I guess i'll give it a shot :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TuRDMaN:
Is anyone else having problems getting App2SD to work? It's just not working for me, and I have no idea why...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Have you guys that are having app2sd problems tried Firerat's solution?

He has a great post on the subject.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=655256

Apparently Ap2sd is known to cause phones to freeze or hang when shutting down and booting the phone.

Firerat seems to have found a fix to these problems.

For now I turned off Ap2sd on my phone and applied Firerat's patch.

I have powered down and booted my phone maybe 10 times in the past hour and have not had it lock up once.

I like the SupSetup app a lot for all of the tweaks it offers, but I am debating whether I should remove it to prevent Ap2sd problems.

Another option is to keep it and let people who want to use this rom read Firerat's thread and to apply his fix.

Thoughts?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] misery:
Hello,

Now that i have the phone stable with this v0.8 i have one question...

Battery life? 10 % drain in 2 hours with only 1 call (40s)?

it's normal? don't think so!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TuRDMaN:
Firerat's solution is pretty much the opposite of what I am looking for. My problem is that I cannot get my apps to install to the ext partition. I am completely stumped here. I had no problem at all getting it to work with Cyanogenmod.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zydus:
I'm having the same problem. My apps only install to the phone's memory. I just recreated the partitions, wiped all cache and now I'm rebooting the phone to see if it makes any difference.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zydus:
It froze on the first reboot on the "htc Magic" screen. I left it there for about 15min, then pulled the battery out and rebooted. apps2sd is working now :D

I can see a SD Card secondary section in SD Card and Phone storage. I also have 163MB of free space on my phone now, after a fresh wipe and first boot.

I have a Rogers Magic (32A)

Edit:

I notice that auto task killer and Facebook are missing. I haven't checked the 3D gallery etc. I'm restarting the phone again now to see if they come back.

The apps are still missing after restart. I also see that Google maps is missing. I had the brut one earlier. The ROM is fast so i'm sticking with it and downloading the apps from the market place.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SuKPiS:
Hello,

This is a really great rom, fast and stable, and the 3D gallery is really awesome. But after using it for a day, I have noticed that the battery seems drain pretty fast. I can only last for 12 hours with around 30 mins phone call and 20 mins music, without using any internet. I am not sure am I configuring right at the SupSetup, since I have turned on accerlation 3D and turbo CPU. Any help on configuring for save battery would be appreciated.

Btw, thanks for this great rom.:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Thanks. My thoughts:

(1) It looks like you have the most aggressive performance settings possible with this rom. I believe one trade off is battery life. The rom is using the latest Sanpei patched kernel to help with battery life, but I think there still must be issues. You can play with those settings, your performance will suffer a bit, but your battery life with increase a bit also.

(2) This rom is a mix of Kolohe's mods, lefeudedieu's application of the Jit hack to the SuperEclair rom plus my port and cooking. A lot of people were having problems with the phone locking up when powering down and booting up. That got me reading....I believe that happens because of Ap2sd that is included in the SupSetup app. I posted a link above to Firerat's excellent thread on issues with Ap2sd.

(3) Last night I started from Superatmel's original rom, I ported to the 32A 6.35 radio, I applied the Jit hack myself, I did not turn on A2sd and made a few minor changes. I wanted to preserve as much of Superatmel's original rom as possible. The result is this test ported rom is getting higher linpack scores than the v0.8 you're using (~3.2-3.7 mflops with aggressive performance settings instead of ~2.6-3.3 mflops with the v0.8 release). More importantly, it has not locked up once on me - but I have Ap2sd turned off.

---> I may release an update especially if I can solve the Ap2sd problem.

---> Superatmel incorporates Cyanogen features (I think he used his kernel heavily). Superatmel is working on a SuperEclair v9.0 (update to v8.2). Hopefully it includes a lot of the big improvements Cyanogen has just released. Apparently the new CM has good battery performance so we may get that soon.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TuRDMaN:
I've tried repartitioning my card a bunch of times, and no dice. Out of curiosity, how is your ext partition formatted? ext2/3/4?

Edit: Okay, so I just reformatted my ext partition to ext3, and now it works. Looks like ext4 support is broken.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Awesome find TuRDMaN !!!

I updated the rom to v0.9 and made these changes:

(1) I reverted back to Superatmel's original SuperEclair 8.2 build without introducing any new bugs (if that is possible :) ). Performance is improved.

(2) I also was able to get the camcorder fixed ---> recording & video playback are now working. A HUGE thanks to Sanpei for his guidance on this one. :D

(3) A couple of other small ones.

Sorry, the new v0.9 release requires a full wipe and partitioning to ext3 if you your ext partition is not already defined as ext3. Hopefully I can get to the point where full wipes are not necessary.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
There is no boot animation, so if the screen goes black during booting DO NOT turn off or pull your battery. Give your phone a minute or two. I can add a boot animation in next release.

Also, my phone locked up on my first power down after setting up rom, but is working fine.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] stringtokenizer:
Refer to the first page Instructions:

You need new radio 6.35.10.18, SPL 1.76.2007 and Amon-RA v1.6.2 here

Your radio issue, upgrade to 6.35.10.18 here

In fact, I have a some error with you while flashing CyanogenMod 5.0.7 test1. CM ROM only support old radio, so flashing on hold.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :

I will update links in ~30 min.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Ok, I've uploaded and updated the links in the first two posts with a version that will flash on Cursor's and Amon Ra's recovery images.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zydus:
Downloading now. I'll update this post once it works (i'm assuming it does :) )

Installed with no hitches. There's a new splash screen on startup. The speedtest app is included, but facebook is missing. The google search widget is black :). apps2sd doesn't seem to have worked on my first attempt. I did do a full wipe and I'm on ext3. I'll try wiping and installing again.

Repartitioned my card. Made sure i'm at ext3. Apps2SD still not working for me :(. I noticed in supsetup that both apps2sd and linux swap were unchecked. I enabled them and restarted my phone. Now apps2sd is running.

So summary:

1. Full wipe and install.

2. Enable apps2sd and linux swap from supsetup.

3. restart phone and apps2sd should be enabled. Verify by going into SD and Phone storage. You will see: SD Card Secondary and your Internal Phone storage will go up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Zydus, I'm glad to hear you got it all working :)

I can add apps on request like Facebook.

Some of the theme changed because I reverted back to the original Superatmel SuperEclair. I added back in some of the LostEden theme Kolohe's version was using, but missed the splash screen boot animation.

Did you open the notification bar and tell your phone / pc to mount / allow the USB connection? Not sure if how this works with Windows cause I am using Linux.

Wow!

Wow! So far this rom looks great. Jonasl's HTC_IME mod works like a charm on it, for those who need other language support: Thread here.

Thanks again!

Edit: After playing with this rom for a bit I can say it is totally amazing. Thanks so much. The best rom I've had in a while!

- If I had a small request it would be for a white theme

- I restored it (v0.9) from a NAND backup and on the first reboot it got stuck at the HTC Magic screen. I fixed it by reinstalling the rom without wiping - it worked fine, kept my apps, data, and settings. If you get stuck at the screen during boot, maybe try this, worked for me. Only problem I have had so far.

Again, thanks a lot!

I'm confused now. Does the v0.9 work with Amon RA's hero recovery?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Yes, it works with Amon Ra's Hero recovery.

But if you want Ap2sd to work (and I think to help prevent any lock ups), then you have to partition your ext to ext3.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Hey dancerbot, did you try the following:

(1) In SupSetup, turn on LinuxSwap, CPU turbo mode, CPU modder

(2) Set AutoKiller to Optimal, Strict or Agressive

Reboot

Then check out the performance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sevag00:
Ok. I'll do that with the hero recovery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I have 96 for swap, 512 for ext, FAT for the rest. I then changed ext to ext3.

Wiped.

Flashed rom.

Booted.

Let the rom take its time.

I set up phone but did not add accounts or sync.

I opened SupSetup and turned on swap and then Ap2sd.

I then set up AutoKiller.

I then rebooted.

I then turned on wifi and set up accounts and sync'ed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sevag00:
Thanks for the help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I haven't tried creating or modifying existing themes.

I can get you a white theme on this rom though. I think it is all there...

Open jrosMetamorph app.

Click on Cargar tema button

Open the jrosMetamorph folder on your sdcard

Click on the SuperEclairBblanca.zip file

Click Aplicar todo button

Reboot

I want to try this rom to see how JIT effects the speed and experience of eclair. As I don't use to install tons of apps, I doubt if I need to enable swap and apps2sd? Or is it recommended? I always thought this is more intended for devices like g1 or 32b... won't swap @ sd reduce the life of my SD card? and isn't the built in memory still faster than a class 6 sd card?

Thx for your suggestions...

Last week I only had the 1 partition on my sd card and I turned off those features. The rom seemed to run fine with no problems. I have read arguments stating the same thing about Ap2sd and swap. I got it working with this rom because there are some 32A users who want it. I probably will turn it off and not partition my sd card now that I am done fixing and testing the issues we had with it. I think Firerat and few other solid devs say 32A users should not use it as it is slower than internal memory.

For the best speed, launch SupSetup and make sure turbo mode and CPU modder are on. Then set up AutoKiller as instructed in first post.

Well giant_rider, I have survived my first reboot, unlike v6 and 7. I've just added my Google account and will attempt another reboot...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
You should be ok. Give it a go, but do a Nand backup first. If you have issues you've lost nothing and can then decide if you need to do a full wipe and install 0.9.

The main change you'll get from 0.9 is the camcorder.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Did you get this fixed?

You probably just need to pull the battery, flash this rom or another that you know works for you or do a Nand restore and reboot.
